Konoha starts from the root

A few minutes later, in an underground cave in the Kingdom of Fire.

Bai Ye pointed to the jagged rocks around him and said to the four root ninjas behind him: "Within half a month, this place will be transformed into a temporary base, and the supplies have been prepared for you."

As he spoke, he took out the scroll and took out all the previously sealed supplies.

"Yes, Captain."

Four root ninjas received the order and immediately responded.

Seeing this, Bai Ye used the Flying Thunder God Technique and left.

There is no need to be polite when dealing with root ninjas, just give orders. They are the best tools. They only have tasks in their eyes, and they will try their best to complete the tasks, so there is no need for supervision.

With the assistance of various ninjutsu, it was not difficult for them to spend half a month transforming this place into a temporary base.

Therefore, Bai Ye no longer needs to stay here. He has more important things to do, which is to design a new radiation laboratory.

The previous laboratory was obviously not suitable for now, because this time he did not need to conduct human experiments.

The last experiment had already taught him the intensity of radiation that brought human genes to the critical point of mutation, so this time he only needed to continue as usual.

The structure of the laboratory is well designed, but the most critical thing is actually the sealing barrier attached to it. This must not go wrong, otherwise if there is a problem with the radiation intensity, the consequences will be serious.

The tragic situation of those experimental subjects at the beginning was a lesson learned from the past.

So, in the following time, Bai Ye designed the new radiation laboratory and went to the temporary base to guide the construction. Things went smoothly.

······

Just as Baiye's plan was progressing in an orderly manner, Keiichi Imada, who went to investigate the situation in the secret place, finally returned to Iwagakure Village.

In Tuying's office.

Ohnoki sat at the head, with several senior advisers sitting on either side of him.

After receiving the courtesy, Imada Keiichi began to report the results of this investigation.

"From the analysis of existing traces on the island, we came to the conclusion that the entire island had been frozen for a long time, at least for more than a month, and ice crystals still remain on the island."

"More than a month?" A consultant couldn't help but said.

"Yes." Imada Keiichi replied affirmatively.

"That is to say, there was a problem in the secret place before the last contact. I have read the records of the code class, and there are no problems with the code and chakra mark of the last contact. Could it be that Naoto Komuro rebelled?"

"No." Keiichi Imada rejected this speculation directly.

I saw him taking out a stone from his arms, with two words scrawled on it - Ice Escape.

"This was dug out from a place where the scent of Komuro Naoto remains. After comparison, it has been confirmed that it is Komuro Naoto's handwriting."

To be honest, Naoto Komuro was indeed very smart. After confirming that Bai Ye had discovered their last hiding place, he still left such a clue.

Imada Keiichi handed the stone to Onoki, and then continued: "He probably wanted to tell us that the enemy is a ninja with the ice escape blood inheritance limit, and this is basically consistent with our speculation. Therefore, I think Komuro Naoto There should be no rebellion, he is probably controlled by the enemy."

Onoki nodded when he heard this, put down the stone in his hand, and said in a deep voice: "Continue."

This stone reminded him of the "village stone" that he had been taught by the first Tsuchikage Ishikawa and taught the "Will of Stone". Although the two shapes were different, they represented the same meaning.

In his opinion, Komuro Naoto is already a ninja who has inherited the "Will of Stone", so he is now full of anger.

Keiichi Imada seemed to feel Ohnoki's suppressed anger, so he quickly told him a piece of good news.

"After our careful inspection, we found nothing in the trap in the secret place. Everything is as usual."

After hearing this, the serious faces of several senior consultants suddenly softened a bit.

"Where are the people? Where are there so many people on the island?" Ohnoki asked.

Imada Keiichi heard this and replied in a low voice: "You can't see people alive, and you can't see corpses even if you are dead."

"Boom."

Ohnoki punched the table, startling several consultants around him.

"You can't see a living person, you can't see a dead body" these eight words immediately reminded him of his son who disappeared more than a year ago.

He also disappeared inexplicably.

In the ninja world, this basically means death.

"Tell me, what else have you discovered?" Onoki suppressed the anger in his heart and said.

"Yes, Lord Three Generations." Imada Keiichi responded and said: "Based on the traces on the island, we speculate that there should be two intruders. One of them is mainly active on the island, while the other one stays in secret for a long time. In the ground, there is a high probability that he is practicing with the help of a secret place."

"How did they know the location of the secret place? And how did they enter the secret place?"

Ohnoki asked two questions in succession.

But Keiichi Imada didn't find the answer to these two questions, so he could only remain silent at this time.

In fact, Keiichi Imada is also very helpless.

Let’s not talk about the first question. For the second question alone, he checked all the ports in the Kingdom of Earth near the Sea of ​​Ghost Mist.

However, Bai Ye set off from the port of the Kingdom of Iron. In such a short period of time, Keiichi Imada didn't even check the ports of the Kingdom of Earth. How could he focus on the Kingdom of Iron? Of course, there was no trace of Bai Ye.

What's more, the enemy doesn't necessarily go to the Sea of ​​Ghost Mist by boat. After all, in the ninja world, although flying ninjas are rare, they are not without them.

As for the pirate ship, it was destroyed when Bai Ye took Xiang Phosphorus to the island, which made it impossible for them to investigate.

The first question Ohnogi asked was not something that Keiichi Imada could check at all.

Because in Yanyin Village, those who know the location of the secret place are basically high-level people, and others who have been to the secret place will have their relevant memories sealed.

The person who is most likely to leak the secret is actually Huang Tu who disappeared before.

However, Imada Keiichi can think so, but he cannot say so. After all, Huangtu is Onoki's son.

Soon, Ohnoki also realized this, and immediately coughed twice and said: "Keiichi, you go down first, remember to write a report on this investigation and give it to me."

"Yes, three generations of adults."

Imada Keiichi claimed yes and left.

After he left, a senior advisor said, "Are we still going to continue sending the ninjas in the village to a secret place to practice?"

"Of course not. It's no longer safe there. What if the enemy comes back again?" Another senior consultant objected decisively.

"Of course we have to continue. Is Yanyin Village going to be frightened by two rats who hide their heads and show their tails?" Another consultant retorted.

"We can't act on impulse. We have already lost a group of outstanding chuunin, and we can't continue to let others die." said the consultant who had previously opposed it.

"Is it because of this that we have to abandon the secret place?"

"..."

Listening to the quarrel of several consultants, Onoki slammed the table and said without any doubt: "The secret training rotation will continue as usual. The number of stationed ninjas will be doubled. From now on, the contact time will be changed to once every three days. In addition, we will send someone Conduct inspections from time to time.”

Onoki was originally a Tsuchikage, plus he was the oldest and stubborn, so when he made up his mind, all the advisors stopped talking.

There was a dead silence in the office immediately. After a while, a consultant said: "Is this matter still under investigation?"

Upon hearing this, Onoki immediately said: "Check, of course we have to check. I will arrange for someone to do it."

Having said that, Ohnoki glanced at the stones on the table again, already making a plan in his mind.
