Konoha starts from the root

In Sand Hidden Village, Bai Ye and Huan Zhi Shen were dressed in ANBU attire, walking quickly through the streets and heading straight to the entrance of the village.

About 4 minutes later, a loud "bang" sound came from behind.

Shiroye glanced back and confirmed that the location of the explosion was the hermitage of Chiyo and Ebizo. He knew that the trap he had set before leaving had been triggered, so he immediately said to the Phantom Body beside him: "Let them take action too. .”

The phantom body did not make any movement after hearing this, but explosions occurred in four other places one after another.

Root ninjas have this advantage when performing missions, and their rations of ninja tools and detonating charms are quite sufficient.

After nearly 10 minutes, the phantom body, which had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "All four of them are dead."

Bai Ye nodded when he heard this, and his pace quickened a bit.

Those four people are dead, which means that the civil strife in Sunagakure Village has been calmed down, and the next step is to search for themselves.

In a few minutes, Baiye and the Phantom Body arrived at the exit of Sand Hidden Village.

At this time, the place is already heavily guarded. Although the manpower has not increased much, everyone is on high alert.

If you want to leave, let alone the ANBU, even the Kazekage will probably have to prove your identity.

Therefore, Bai Ye did not intend to muddle through, but instead burst out chakra, formed seals with his hands, and said: "Water Release: Kirigakure's Technique."

The development progress of his chakra water attribute is second only to the Yin attribute, reaching 27.2%, so even in this dry environment, he still releases a wide range of water mist.

Looking at the fog that quickly became thick around them, the two special jounin were all shocked, and then they immediately said: "Alert! Enemy attack!"

As soon as they made a sound, several shurikens were fired at them.

"Ding ding ding."

Several consecutive collisions of gold and iron were heard, and all the shurikens were knocked away.

It can be seen that their strength is not bad.

However, the next moment, two figures suddenly appeared behind them.

Then there was the sound of sharp blades cutting through skin, and their screams of pain.

Bai Ye and Huan Zhi ignored them and rushed towards the exit. If these two people were not captains and could command others, why would they not waste time?

A moment later, Bai Ye and Huan Zhi rushed out of Sand Hidden Village, and then ran non-stop.

The moment they left Sunagakure Village, the barrier team discovered this abnormal situation and immediately reported it to the Fourth Kazekage Rasa.

After Luo Sha compiled all the intelligence, he immediately knew that the enemy had escaped from the village.

Although he did not yet know what the enemy's purpose was, the news that the two advisers in the village were missing was unmistakable, so he would never allow the enemy to escape.

No matter whether Chiyo and Ebizo are dead or alive at this time, they cannot fall into the hands of the enemy.

Thinking of this, he immediately said: "Let Marky come to see me."

"Yes." An Anbu suddenly disappeared next to him.

After a while, Marky arrived at the Kazekage Building.

"Four generations of adults."

"Maji, now issue an S-level mission to hunt down the ninjas who invaded the village. This is intelligence information."

Luo Sha said, pushing a document forward.

Maki picked up the file and quickly browsed through it. After seeing the news of Chiyo and Ebizo's disappearance, he immediately understood the seriousness of the matter.

"It is currently known that there should be two enemies who have just left the village. You should immediately dispatch two teams from the combat troops to pursue them."

"Yes, Lord Four."

Markey claimed so and quickly left.

"I hope it has nothing to do with Konoha." After Ma Ji left, Luo Sha said in his heart.

If he had known that Suzune went straight to Chiyo and Ebizo's retreat after returning to the village, he would probably have understood immediately that this matter had nothing to do with Konoha.

It only took Baiye about four and 10 minutes in total from entering Sand Hidden Village to finally leaving. He just wanted to complete his plan before Sunagakure Village could react. This is the way of an assassin.

······

Late at night, Bai Ye, who had been running for several hours, finally had to stop and rest.

At this time, his body was on the verge of reaching its limit and needed a good recovery.

He was not worried about being caught up so quickly, after all, there was a phantom body serving as bait.

Thinking of the aggrieved look in the fantasy body's eyes when they parted, Bai Ye couldn't help but chuckle.

While he was resting, Markie led two standard combat teams, a total of nine people, in the desert, still tracking his traces.

Silent all night.

The next day, in the early morning, Bai Ye took a Bing Liang Pill and set off again.

If everything goes well, he will be able to leave the Kingdom of Wind around noon, enter the Kingdom of Kawawa, and return to Konoha in two days.

A morning passed quickly.

Not long after Bai Ye entered the country of Sichuan, his hurried footsteps suddenly paused, and a memory suddenly appeared in his mind.

This is the memory of the phantom body during this period.

······

Ten minutes ago, the border of the Kingdom of Wind was not far from the Kingdom of Rain.

'White Leaf' looked at Ma Ji not far away, spread his hands, and shouted: "Hey~, isn't this the famous Ma Ji Jonin of Sunagakure Village? Why do you have the time to come here?"

Ma Ji looked at 'Shiroye' dressed as a Sunagakure ANBU, and asked in a calm tone: "Who are you? And, where are your companions?"

A group of them left the village yesterday evening. They traveled non-stop along the way and only rested for two hours. They finally caught up with their target. Unexpectedly, one person was missing.

'Bai Ye' shrugged and said: "That guy ran away long ago. I am just a bait. Can you let me go?"

Marki felt that the person in front of him was strange, not quite like a ninja. Although his actions were all those of a standard ninja, he always felt that something was wrong.

He suppressed the doubts in his heart and said, "I can let you go. Tell me, who are you and what is the purpose of sneaking into Sunagakure Village?"

He did not directly ask about the whereabouts of Chiyo and Ebizo. First, he was worried that this person had nothing to do with this matter, and second, the news could not be made public for the time being.

'Baiye' heard this and replied in a low voice: "We are just homeless ghosts. As for the purpose of entering your village, uh~, how should I put it? We are just looking for a ticket to go home."

"A homeless ghost, an exiled ninja? What does the ticket mean?" Ma Ji quickly analyzed the information in Bai Ye's words.

After thinking for a while, he still didn't understand what the ticket meant, so he asked directly: "What does the ticket mean?"

'Baiye' didn't hide anything and said seriously: "The ferry ticket is just a metaphor, it means what you need to go home."

Ma Ji thinks he has roughly figured out the identity and purpose of 'White Leaf'.

According to 'White Leaf', they may be ninjas who have lost their homes and wandered around after experiencing war or other disasters. The purpose of sneaking into Sand Hidden Village is to find something necessary to return home.

"Where are you going back? And, what are you looking for?" Marky spoke again.

He calculated in his mind: "As long as the answers to these two questions are confirmed, the identity of this person will be clear, and from the things they are looking for, it can be determined whether they are related to the disappearance of the two consultants."

However, 'Bai Ye', who had always been cooperative, shook his head and said, "I can't tell you this."

"Are you sure you don't want to tell me?" Ma Ji said threateningly.

'Bai Ye' didn't seem to notice the threat in his tone, and just said with certainty: "You really can't say this."

When Ma Ji heard this, he suddenly made a gesture with his left hand.

The next moment, everyone behind him took out their kunai and ran towards the 'White Leaf'.
