Start: Kidnapped by Konoha, rewarded with Shocking Fruit

"This……"

Hanano was shocked.

To know.

in his mind.

He didn't know if there was any precedent in other villages, but in Konoha, the Hokage had no right to actively rate anyone.

And now.

Minato actually...

to be frank.

Have been touched.

It's like if one day your good brother becomes the factory director, it makes sense to make an exception for you to become the workshop director of a certain workshop in the factory. (Everyone in the Hu Ximeng family knows this joke, hahaha)

"Minato, I'm sorry, I can't accept this."

After coming back to his senses, Hano shook his head and refused.

Because he knows.

Once he accepted it, Minato would face tremendous pressure.

Don't say far.

Those three old stubborns in Konoha would definitely not agree.

"Hanano..."

Minato still wanted to persuade, but Hano interrupted him directly: "I know you are doing it for my own good, but I also have my own persistence. When the time comes when the genin is really not suitable to be in ANBU, it happens that you need me to stay." Anbu will help you, and then I will consider taking the ninja-level exam." Seven

"Well, since you insist so much, that's all."

Minato shrugged, returned to his seat, took out another document, and handed it over: "This is the result handed over by the torture department. Take a look."

"Oh?"

After Hanye looked at it carefully, he couldn't help but said in surprise: "How is this possible?"

Could it be that there was something wrong with the interrogation?

Should not be ah.

Let's not talk about the captain of the torture department, Ibiki. Even Yamanaka Haiichi's ability to directly invade the opponent's brain and steal information will never go wrong.

But why did the submitted information actually show that the few enemy ninjas he brought back did not belong to any hidden village?

"You don't think it's possible either, right?"

Minato smiled bitterly and turned to look out the window: "I asked Ibiki personally at that time, and he said that in the memory of those enemy ninjas, there was only a general outline of the village, but no substantial memory. In other words, It seems like someone had forcibly erased their memory of their village before they went on the mission, probably because they were worried about being exposed."

"Are there no other valuable clues?"

Hanano frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly said: "By the way, one of the Jonin among them seemed to have shouted something like Kusanagi before he died. This may be a clue to a breakthrough!"

"Ah."

Minato also nodded and said, "This is the purpose of why I came to you today."

"After the third war, the strength of the five hidden villages is not as good as before, and they have all entered a period of recuperation. This has also given some people with ulterior motives an opportunity to take advantage of them."

"I have consulted the Sandaime-sama and advisors, and their attitude is the same as mine. They are determined to find out who is behind this."

"But there are differences over the person to be appointed. I advocate that you should take the lead, but Danzo-sama wants a jounin named Nonou to carry out this mission."

"Oh, by the way, you mentioned last time that Danzo was probably cultivating his own elite in private. I asked about it this time, and he said it was an organization called 'Root' within the ANBU. Its nature is similar to mine. The special class you were asked to lead is a bit similar, and the Nonoyu he proposed was once a member of this organization."

'Root' is a bit similar to a special class?

Hano sneered inwardly.

It seems that this Danzo still doesn't tell the truth.

But this kind of thing.

He couldn't explain it now, so he asked: "What about the final result? Should I be sent, or Nonoyu?"

"At the same time!"

Minato patted Hano's shoulder and said earnestly: "But I hope you can complete this task before Noonoyu!"

Hano knows.

This is not just a task, but a secret contest between the top leaders of Konoha.

Be it yourself or Nonoyu.

It became a bargaining chip in their competition, or a chess piece!

Such a taste.

It's really not a good feeling.

But due to the face of his good friend, Hano finally agreed.

...

Caoyin Village is located in the Country of Grass.

In the northwest corner of Konoha, it intersects with Iwagakure Village.

three days later.

After mastering all the information on this mission, Hano took the three little ones from the special class and embarked on the journey to Kusanagi Village.

Because this is the first time that the three little ones have participated in a mission together.

along the way.

Ebisu and Inuzuka Hana are two.

That excitement.

He kept talking.

Kakashi had his last experience and became much more cautious this time.

When he came to the border, he looked at the map and suggested: "Senior, if we go further we will enter the sphere of influence of the Country of Grass. Do you think we should find a place to rest first?"

Hanye looked away for a long time, nodded and said: "Okay, let's find a place to have a good rest first."

Of course.

Just as he finished speaking.

Suddenly, several ninjas wearing grass ninja forehead protectors appeared nearby.

This scene.

The four Konoha ANBU special class members who were preparing to take a rest were slightly startled.

Kakashi frowned and stared at the person for a long time, then he leaned into Hano's ear and said: "Senior, they are the ANBU of Kusagakure Village, and the leader should be Ryuuga, who has the limit of Ryūshin Reincarnation and Blood Succession! "

Dragon Reincarnation?

At the cost of his own life, he shared the secret secrets of the Blood Inheritance Boundary with others intact?

This is somewhat rare.

only...

Why are they blocking our way?

Dragon Tongue took a step forward, first his eyes lingered on Kakashi for a few breaths, and finally he looked at Hano: "Friends of Konoha, you seem to have crossed the line."

"Out of bounds?"

Hanano shook his head calmly: "If I remember correctly, this place should still belong to the territory of the Kingdom of Fire. To say that it has crossed the border, I am afraid you have crossed the border, right?"

Dragon Tongue said: "According to the peace treaty, the Anbu of each village can patrol the border locations. As long as they don't go deep, it doesn't matter."

"That's a coincidence."

Hanano said: "We happen to be sent by Konoha Anbu to inspect this time."

Konoha Anbe?

Dragon Tongue frowned.

But considering that even the legendary copy ninja Kakashi is here, it's not impossible.

So he nodded and said: "In this case, it must be a misunderstanding, but..."

"I hope you will not disrupt this hard-won peace without authorization."

"let's go!"

"What are you dragging?"

After Ryuuki and the others left, Inuzuka Hana said unhappily: "Obviously there is something wrong in their minds, but now they are talking about us."

"Forget it, what they said makes sense."

Hanano shook his head in confusion, then took out a map, looked at it, pointed to an isolated island and said: "If we can't go to the Country of Grass in an honest way, it seems we can only start from here."

Kakashi leaned over and took a look, and was shocked to find that where the senior was pointing, there were three big black characters written - Ghost Light City!
