Konoha starts from the root

After confirming that Yanagisaki was under the illusion, Yu began to follow Tenzo's request and asked: "What is your mission this time?"

Liu Zehui replied vaguely: "I don't know."

Yu thought for a moment and asked again: "Where were you going before?"

Liu Zehui replied: "The country of fields."

The four ANBU looked at each other and said nothing.

The fish then asked: "Why do you want to go to Tian Country?"

Liu Zehui was silent for several seconds, and finally said with difficulty: "This is an order."

When Yu was about to ask who gave the order, he was stopped by Tianzang.

Because he thought of what happened to Tanigawa Shuhei just now, he didn't want to risk asking this question directly, not to mention that he already had a guess about this person in his mind.

"Ask him what he will do after arriving in Tianzhi Country?" Tianzang said to the fish.

Yu nodded when he heard this and said, "What are you going to do when you arrive at Tian Country?"

Yanagawa Teru replied: "Tanigawa Shuhei, Asakawa Takeshi and I are preparing to escape."

"what?"

This answer was completely beyond the expectations of Tianzang and others. They thought that these people had some mission to go to Tianzhi Country, but they never thought that they planned to escape directly.

"No, Fish, what is the order he received?"

When Yu heard the words, he immediately realized that escaping was just the idea of ​​these people, and this was definitely not the order they received.

So, she asked Liu Zehui: "What is the order you received?"

Yanagi Zehui answered accurately: "After arriving at Tian Country, wait for the talisman on the scroll to be lifted and complete the above tasks as required."

"Is it any wonder they don't know what the mission is?"

The fish then asked: "Where is the mission scroll?"

"On Asakawa Takeshi's body." Yanagizawa Teru replied.

Upon hearing this, Tianzang immediately looked at the pile of rotten meat not far away. If he guessed correctly, the bear man was probably Takeshi Asakawa.

Immediately, he raised his right hand, a branch extended out, and penetrated into the rotten flesh transformed by Takeshi Asakawa. After a few breaths, he grabbed a scroll.

"Sure enough, he is Takeshi Asakawa." Tenzo thought to himself.

After confirming this, he couldn't help but think of the despair and pain he felt when he was a test subject when he was a child.

Fortunately, his mental quality was not bad, and he quickly suppressed all the distracting thoughts and turned his attention to the task scroll in front of him.

I saw a talisman with the word 'sealed' written on this scroll. Obviously it cannot be opened directly, otherwise the scroll will probably self-destruct.

Just when he was distressed, the talisman on the scroll spontaneously ignited without fire and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"It should be time." Tian Zang thought to himself.

Then he waved his hand to signal the others to step back, and then carefully opened the scroll.

The scroll unfolded little by little, and nothing unusual happened.

It wasn't until the scroll was completely opened that a few people could see the full picture of the scroll.

This turned out to be a blank scroll. Not to mention the content of the mission, there was not a single word in it.

Seeing this, Tianzang immediately examined the scroll carefully and finally determined that it was an ordinary blank scroll.

Tianzang stood there blankly, all the experiences he had experienced in the past few days flooded into his mind.

From the first time he noticed the sensory reconnaissance of Xiang Phosphorus, to the second time he sneaked in and was scared away by Bai Ye, to the third time he was attracted by Asakawa Takeshi and others, various clues came together to give him an unknown idea. Very good guess.

"Are these all traps designed by the enemy?"

The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed to Tianzang.

Judging from the current situation, Asakawa Takeshi and others are most likely to be abandoned.

If you think about it further along this clue, the role of these people is obvious, which is to divert their attention.

As for why we should do this?

Tianzang estimated that the other party's experiment might have reached a critical moment, and he had to do this in order to delay time.

"Captain?" Yu's voice suddenly reached Tianzang's ears.

Tianzang was awakened immediately. He had no time to explain anything, so he just said to the fish: "Ask him who Bai Ye is?"

The name Bai Ye was something he accidentally heard when he sneaked into the base.

According to his guess, this person is probably the key figure in the whole matter. As long as the identity of the other party is figured out, then most of the matter will be solved.

Yu Jian Tianzang's tone was a little urgent, so he didn't ask any more questions and said directly: "Who is Bai Ye?"

When Liu Zehui heard this question, he immediately woke up from the illusion. Unfortunately, before he could say a word, a soul-locking curse mark appeared between his eyebrows.

A few seconds later, his consciousness was sealed, and he was in the same state as Tanichuan Shuhei.

"Sure enough."

Although Tianzang was a little disappointed when he saw this, he was at least sure that his guess was correct. Bai Ye was indeed a key figure, otherwise Yanagi Zehui would not have lost consciousness.

However, he had no time to think about these issues anymore. The most important thing now was to return to Konoha quickly, report the information he knew to the Third Hokage, and then wait for new orders.

As for the base, he wasn't too worried. After all, it was not far from Konoha Village, and the Third Generation had already dispatched ANBU to support Kirikaku and Aburame Kenpei.

From the existing intelligence analysis, it is known that there is a human experiment base of 'Root'. The only question now is whether the third generation of adults will thoroughly investigate there.

Thinking of this, Tianzang immediately gave the order: "Feng, Yu, you two stay to clean up the traces, and then return with Yanagawa Teru and Tanigawa Shuhei."

The wind and the fish should immediately claim it.

Then, he turned to the last person and said: "Aoki, you and I rush back to Konoha immediately. The situation here must be reported to the Third Generation as soon as possible."

"Yes, Captain." Qinggui responded after hearing this.

"let's go."

After that, he reached the tree branch with a teleportation technique, and then ran straight towards Konoha Village, with Aoki following closely behind.

······

At the same time, outside Konoha Village, in the base.

Bai Ye was sitting cross-legged in Room No. [-]. He stretched out his hands from time to time to gather chakra, trying to change the nature of wind and water at the same time.

Just this morning, the ten experimental subjects finally showed slight changes.

Due to the accumulation of experiments in the previous two months, Baiye no longer has to wait for more obvious changes. He can determine the precise radiation intensity based on only these subtleties.

This radiation intensity is exactly the intensity in Room [-] where he is now. In this radiation environment, the human body's genes are at the critical point of mutation in a short period of time.

If it goes further, the stability of the gene will be completely broken, and the consequence will be large-scale changes in the cells until they die.

It is this critical point that Bai Ye needs.

Chakra is the fusion of physical energy and spiritual energy, and is the link between dreams and reality.

Therefore, the ninja's own condition can affect chakra. Similarly, chakra can also reversely affect his own condition to a certain extent, including genes.

It's just that it's extremely difficult to do this, and Bai Ye's experimental results have reduced this difficulty, making the impact of chakra on one's own genes more direct and obvious.

Now, the experimental instruments, experimental materials, and experimental subjects in the base have all been transferred away by him using the Flying Thunder God technique.

He and Xiang Lu were the only two people left in the entire base.

Without worries, Bai Ye would not let go of this opportunity, so he took advantage of the ready-made laboratory here to practice.

Anyway, he could leave at any time without worrying about being caught by ANBU.
