Ninja World: Pass Fire from Konoha

In a forest about three kilometers north of Konoha.

A dozen figures in ninja uniforms formed an encirclement, trapping a masked ninja holding an unconscious girl in the center.

In front of the masked ninja, a white-haired old man was maintaining a seal posture with his hands, performing some kind of technique.

It can be seen that as time goes by, more and more sweat appears on the old man's forehead.

In contrast, the body of the masked ninja opposite him kept shaking, as if he was encountering something extremely terrifying.

Suddenly, the masked ninja let go of the girl in his hands and raised his hands as if to resist something.

A ninja wearing a different ninja uniform from the ANBU and root ninjas jumped out from a nearby tree and caught the falling girl. Seeing this, the old man breathed a sigh of relief. He could no longer hold on and put down his hand to maintain the seal posture. With his hands almost paralyzed to the ground, two ninjas appeared beside him at the right time and helped him disappear into the woods.

On a branch somewhere in the woods, Danzo looked at the place where the old man disappeared with a gloomy look on his face: "A terrifying fantasy...an old guy from the Kurama family, tsk!"

The Kurama family, once a famous family in Konoha, was equal to the Uchiha family in its heyday. The representative ability of this family was the illusion of manipulating the five senses of others.Real illusions, terrifying illusions, five magical senses... It is a pity that no one in the descendants has awakened the blood inheritance limit of illusions. They have gradually declined over the years, but because the old guys from the Warring States period are still there, no one dares to provoke them.

Although the tiger is behind the scenes, its power still remains.

Even Danzo himself was not sure of blocking the genjutsu cast by the old man from the Kurama family just now.

It can be seen that due to his age, the old man has difficulty in applying illusions to ninjas at the Jonin level. However, the battle between ninjas is very fast. Once trapped by illusions, death is not far away.

No one knows how many old guys like this there are in the Kurama family.

Not only the Kurama family, but also the major Konoha clans such as Hinata, Uchiha, Senju, etc. are in the same situation. This is also the main reason why the third generation Hokage is currently hampered everywhere.

……

As the old man of the Kurama family disappeared, the illusion he cast naturally also dissipated. Kitagawa Ichiro, who gradually woke up, gasped for air.

Just now, facing the giant wooden palm falling from the sky, he thought he would turn into minced meat.

The feeling of powerlessness in the face of the frightened heavenly power made his heart palpitate.

Feeling the lightness of his left hand, he turned his eyes to look, and when he saw the empty left hand, his pupils suddenly shrank.

it's over...

As soon as the sadness in his heart arose, three kunai were pressed against his neck, heart, and lower back. The sharp blades separated his skin, and bright red blood beads flowed out.

Danzo came to Ichiro Kitagawa, looked at Ichiro Kitagawa who was glaring at him, and knocked him unconscious without any nonsense.

Surrounded by ANBU ninjas who were loyal to Hokage, even if he wanted to "switch the bag" and let Kitagawa Ichiro leave, he didn't dare to do it so obviously.

At this moment, Danzo's heart was bleeding.

The destruction of the two elite teams of the Roots was a huge damage to the Roots, which had only been developing for a few years.

Especially the reason why these two teams were destroyed...

Sarutobi, Orochimaru!

A cold look flashed in Danzo's eyes.

"Go, let's go back!"

With a low drink, Danzo turned around and left.

Suddenly, a white figure jumped down from the nearby tree and blocked the direction of Danzo and others' progress.

"Danzo-sama, isn't it a bit wrong for you to take away the spy like this? I think it would be better for the ANBU to escort him to the prison for interrogation and to find out who is behind the scenes."

There was a faint smile on Orochimaru's cold white face.

As his voice fell, several ANBU ninjas appeared behind him, silently supporting him.

Suddenly, the scene calmed down.

The wordless silence made the air seem to freeze.

Danzo narrowed his eyes and said coldly:

"Orochimaru, one thing you need to know is that I am the person in charge of this investigation mission, and you are only cooperating."

"Some things are too much and too little is too much."

A few meters apart, the two pairs of eyes looked at each other.

At this moment, the birds on the tree were all curled up, not daring to move at all.

After a long time, Orochimaru shook his head and chuckled: "Well, since Lord Danzo said so, then I will follow your words."

"Humph! Let's go!"

Danzo shouted coldly, and then walked quickly past Orochimaru and others with a few people from the roots and the unconscious Kitagawa Ichiro.

Staring at the departing figures of Danzo and others, especially Kitagawa Ichiro, who was being carried by a root ninja, a look of pity flashed deep in Orochimaru's eyes.

The soul of the strong...

Unfortunately, the previous casualties of the two root teams have already touched Danzo's bottom line. It is still too difficult to take away Kitagawa Ichiro's life. After all, Danzo is the Hokage Sasuke. If you push him, it will not end well...

Shaking his head, Orochimaru's figure flashed and disappeared into the woods.

Several ANBU ninjas looked at each other and left.

……

Danzo was walking among the woods with a sullen face and said nothing.

He suffered a big loss in this investigation mission.

But one thing made him very confused. According to Sarutobi Hiruzen's past behavior style, he didn't seem like someone who would make such a calculation. Was it a matter of balance, or was it Orochimaru's unilateral claim?

Danzo mused.

But suddenly, a faint feeling of uneasiness emerged in his heart.

"stop!"

He raised his hand to signal the root ninjas behind him to stop, while observing the surroundings with vigilance.

I don’t know when the surroundings became extremely quiet.

The insects no longer chirp, the birds no longer chirp, and even the wind seems to have disappeared.

Thick gray fog spread all around, completely surrounding them.

"Who is it! Come out!"

Danzo said coldly.

Behind him, the root ninjas also looked alert, with murderous intent clearly visible.

The woods here are less than three kilometers away from Konoha Village. Who dares to attack Konoha's Hokage Sasuke? !

"laugh--"

The gray fog was getting bigger and bigger, and the field of vision of Danzo and others became narrower and narrower. Suddenly, an undetectable sound of breaking through the air came from the air.

Danzo and the others were startled, and subconsciously raised their weapons in front of them. However, after waiting for a long time, there was no sound of injured people screaming. Instead, the gray fog around them gradually receded.

what happened?

Danzo's expression changed, and an ominous premonition appeared in his heart. He immediately turned to look at Kitagawa Ichiro, who was carrying a root ninja on his shoulders.

What he saw made his teeth chatter.

On Kitagawa Ichiro's forehead, a long metal needle as thick as a finger penetrated deeply into his brain.

……

On a big tree hundreds of meters away from Danzo and others.

Hinata Untaki's whole body was covered by gray mist.

He looked at a group of gray-white souls that appeared in his hand and looked like a burning flame. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then his body slowly disappeared in place.

[The Soul of the Nameless Jonin] is here!

Really, a pleasant surprise.
