Konoha starts from the root

After observing for a while and confirming that Zero-Tail had no special abilities, Tenzo took action.

If we don't take action, the chakra of others will be insufficient, and I'm afraid they won't be able to help much.

Thinking of this, Tianzang immediately said: "Strike with all your strength to suppress it."

Upon hearing this, three jounin immediately took a few steps back and began to form seals, obviously intending to perform powerful ninjutsu.

Zero-Tail seemed to sense the danger and resisted violently.

The pressure on the remaining five special jounin suddenly increased.

However, they did not take half a step back. Instead, they increased their attack intensity regardless of the consumption of chakra.

A few seconds later, slightly twisted stone pillars appeared, first blocking the surroundings of Zero Tails, and before Zero Tails could escape from above, they also blocked the upper exit, making it look like a cage.

Immediately afterwards, lightning suddenly appeared, and strands of arcs filled the inside and outside of the cage like spider webs.

This was exactly the barrier ninjutsu performed by an ANBU jounin, the Thunder Release: Sixteen Pillar Binding Jutsu.

While Zero-Tail was trapped, another jounin performed the ninjutsu, Fire Release and Suyaki no Jutsu.

This fire escape ninjutsu is different from ordinary fire escape ninjutsu. It is not performed by the ninja through the mouth, but burns directly on the target.

I saw fire suddenly appearing in the cage.

Then Zero-Tail let out a shrill scream.

A moment later, a "bang" sound came, and Zero-Tail actually forcibly broke through the sixteen-pillar restraint technique.

However, before it could go crazy, a transparent wind blade silently grazed its body and cut off several arms.

If it hadn't sensed the danger and evaded in advance, the thing that would have been cut open would have been its mask.

Seeing that Zero-Tail's core was not injured, the last ANBU jounin sighed: "What a pity!"

The Wind Release and Wind Cut techniques just now were performed by him.

However, after their series of attacks, Zero-Tail's body was obviously a little illusory, which was caused by excessive chakra consumption in a short period of time.

"Captain, it's up to you." The ANBU ninja spoke again.

Tianzang didn't answer. At this moment, he had completed the seal, consumed a lot of chakra, and used the ninjutsu, Wood Release and Thorn Killing Technique.

A dozen huge wooden pillars about 20 meters high were seen drilling out of the ground, trapping Zero Wei in them. At the same time, several rattan-like logs were tightly wrapped around Zero Wei's body.

Only then did Zero-Tail become horrified to realize that his chakra was being absorbed by these pieces of wood.

It can be seen that the wood wrapped around Zero Tail seems to have come to life, and it quickly grows lush branches and leaves. At the same time, the binding force is also strengthened a lot.

Zero-Tail tried to break free, but those pieces of wood were like shackles, restraining him perfectly.

After about 2 minutes, Zero Tails finally stopped struggling. After roaring a few times, the transformed body dissipated.

There was only one red-haired girl left, it was Amaru.

Seeing this, Tianzang approached with a teleportation technique, and then attached a sealing talisman to his body.

Then, black sealing techniques emerged one after another, completely wrapping her up in the blink of an eye.

At this time, Tianzang breathed a sigh of relief.

"team leader!"

Seeing that the overall situation was decided, the others gathered around.

Tianzang did not let everyone rest, and said directly: "Take care of this place, take her with you, we will return to the village immediately."

As he spoke, he pointed at Amaru on the ground.

"Yes, Captain."

After a few people responded, they took care of the beginning and the end, and then ran towards Konoha non-stop.

······

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was already late at night.

At this time, Konoha Village has fallen into a deep sleep.

However, the Hokage Building was still brightly lit.

In the conference room on the second floor, at the table, the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, sat at the head of the table, while Koharu and Mito Kabuto were seated on the left and right.

Sitting below were Konoha military advisor Nara Shikaku, ANBU captain Tenzo, and torture unit leader Morino Ihiki.

No one spoke in the conference room, only the sound of rustling papers.

After a long time, Sarutobi Hiruzen coughed twice, and after attracting everyone's attention, he said: "Everyone tells his own opinion."

Hearing this, Koharu took the lead in putting down the documents in his hands when he went to bed, and said in a slightly sharp voice: "There was a conflict with Iwagakure Village at the beginning of the year. The storm finally subsided, and Sunagakure Village was ready to make another move. Fortunately, Shikaku did it Well, we didn’t lose anything.”

Nara Shikaku lowered his head slightly when he heard this, but didn't say much.

Sunagakure Village has indeed withdrawn its troops, and just as he predicted, the Fourth Kazekage Rasa did not have the courage to start a war directly.

And Sunagakure Village is located in the center of the desert, with relatively poor resources and cannot consume Konoha at all.

Therefore, after the second round of negotiations, Konoha paid only a small price to allow Sunagakure Village to withdraw its troops.

However, this also sent a signal to the ninja world that Konoha's strength had weakened.

Because whether it is asking Iwagakure Village to cease the war or asking Sunagakure Village to withdraw its troops, Konoha is clearly the weaker side.

In this regard, Nara Shikaku had nothing to say. He could only obey the orders of the third generation.

Moreover, he has vaguely noticed that the ninja world is being controlled by one or several pairs of black hands, so he thinks that the third generation's choice is not a big problem.

After glancing at Nara Shikaku, Koharu went to bed and continued: "Not long after these two things passed, the Kong Ninja Village, which had long been destroyed, appeared out of nowhere. Look, this Ninja World is probably There’s going to be chaos again!”

At this time, Mito Kaden suddenly asked: "Have you found out what happened to Zero-Tail?"

Hearing this, Morino Ibixi replied: "The sealing class has already checked, and the sealing technique on that girl, Amaru, is the forbidden technique Zero Tail Technique that was born out of the village.

Haiyi has read her memory and can confirm that the person who imposed the seal was her teacher, Shennong.

In addition, according to the memory of the Kong Ninja we captured, it was confirmed that Shennong is the leader of the Kong Ninja. "

Speaking of this, he looked at Tianzang.

Tianzang continued: "The Anbu has verified that Shennong has been to the village many times, including the turmoil 20 years ago.

Therefore, we infer that Shennong should have stolen the zero-tail technique at that time. "

Mito Kadoyan nodded and continued to ask: "Did the ANBU find out who or what force attacked Kong Ninja Village? What was their purpose?"

Hearing this, Tianzang could only shake his head and said: "The other party did it very cleanly and did not leave any useful clues.

As for the purpose, we speculate that it is probably the Zero-Tail Jutsu. "

"Is it another force that covets dangerous power?" Mito Kadoyan whispered.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was at the top of the list, said nothing, but he had some guesses about this force.

In his opinion, the most likely possibility is Baiye or the 'Akatsuki' organization.

First of all, Baiye used to be a member of the 'root' club, and he probably knew the existence of the zero-tail technique, so he tried every means to find it.

The second is the 'Akatsuki' organization. This organization targets tailed beasts, so there is no guarantee that it will not be interested in zero-tails.

Therefore, these two sides are the most likely.

Just as Sarutobi Hiruzen was thinking, Mito Kaden suddenly said in a deep voice: "Hiruzhan, I think it is necessary to continue Danzo's plan."

Hearing Danzo's name, the meeting room immediately became much quieter.

Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned and said in a tangled voice: "That plan...well, don't worry about it for now."

"Hiruzen, the ninja world has been in chaos. You should know how much the village's strength has declined over the years. It's better to prepare early." Mito Monen continued to advise.
