Konoha Tatsuno

Outside Konoha Village, in a cave deep in a dense forest, nine men were lying or leaning against the cave wall.

Sa~

There was a sound of breaking through the air, and a figure appeared at the entrance of the cave.

"Kazuma, how's the situation?"

Hearing the movement, all nine people in the cave stood up and looked at the person.

The man who came in was none other than Kazuma, one of the twelve guardian ninjas of the Fire Country.

The other nine people in the cave are also the Twelve Guardian Ninjas.

Except for Asuma and Chiriku, the other ten people who guarded the Twelve Ninjas were all present.

"Asuma has resumed his status as a Jounin of Konoha" Kazuma walked into the cave with a sullen expression.

Hearing Kazuma's words, the nine people in the cave looked slightly different.

Beizi, Nanwu, Xidu, and Dongmao, the four members of Lei Dun, had slightly complicated expressions, while the remaining five all had angry expressions.

"This traitor! He indeed chose to side with the Hokage," one of the remaining five people cursed angrily.

"The Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen is his father. It is understandable that Asuma would make such a choice."

Hearing this, Dongmao couldn't help but defended Asma.

"Dongmao, do you also want to betray the daimyo?"

As soon as Dongmao finished speaking, Kazuma suddenly turned his head to look at him and asked in a deep voice.

"I just think that the existence of the Hokage will not pose a threat to the daimyo. There is no need for us to fight among ourselves. If we suffer excessive losses because of this, it will be easier for the other four countries to take advantage of it."

Dongmao argued.

Kazuma stared at Dongmao with cold eyes and said word by word: "Dongmao, you are still so naive!

Since the first Hokage Senju Hashirama, when was the position of Hokage of Konoha Village directly appointed by the daimyo?

For the Country of Fire, Konoha Village is a country within a country and has strong military strength.

Such a powerful uncontrollable force exists, and you still say it poses no threat to the daimyo?

As long as the daimyo can control all the power of the Fire Country, this loss is nothing! "

"Can,,,"

Dongmao was about to say more, but Beizi on the side stopped him.

Dongmao turned to look at Beizi doubtfully.

Beizi shook his head and signaled Dongmao to stop talking.

Seeing this, Dongmao opened his mouth, but in the end he said nothing.

"This time we are assigned by the daimyo. No matter what you think, we must strictly implement the order."

Kazuma's eyes swept over the four Lei Dun people one by one, and finally he snorted coldly.

After Kazuma finished speaking, there was silence in the cave.

He Ma knew clearly in his heart that the four members of Lei Dun did not completely agree with his proposition.

However, he had a famous oracle in his hand, and the four of them had to obey his command.

Thinking of the argument a few months ago, Kazuma couldn't help but twitch a sneer on his lips, with a hint of pride in his smile.

Because of Tatsuno's appearance, Kazuma's life has been completely changed.

During the Nine-Tails Rebellion, Kazuma's carefully collected Nine-Tails chakra was swallowed by the Green Snake.

In Taki Ninja Village, the game carefully laid by Kazuma and Shisha was easily broken by Tatsuno.

Continuous setbacks made Tokushima change his direction. After he returned to the Fire Nation daimyo, he changed his previous radical style and began to consider himself a conservative.

In just over two years, Kazuma has established relationships with many senior officials of the Fire Country and other people who guard the Twelve Ninja Warriors.

However, this is all just an illusion.

Secretly, Kazuma is still the leader of the radical faction.

More than four months ago, a huge shock occurred among the top leaders of the Fire Nation.

A large number of conservative officials were secretly executed for treason by the Fire Nation's daimyo, and the radicals gained the upper hand in the Fire Nation's court.

It was also during this period that Asuma and Chiriku were forced to leave the Twelve Guardian Ninja.

Nowadays, except for the four Thunderbolts among the Twelve Guardian Ninjas, the other six are all radicals headed by Kazuma.

This time, they were ordered by the Daimyo of the Land of Fire to assassinate the Third Hokage.

For the Fire Country Daimyo, there is no way out for him now.

In the court, the talk of removing the Hokage and bringing Konoha Village under the unified jurisdiction of the daimyo had already been rampant. He did not believe that Konoha would not receive the news.

The relationship between the Fire Nation daimyo and the top management of Konoha has broken down. If he doesn't take action early, he may lose his head one day!

After some debate, silence returned to the cave.

Outside the cave, a small green snake coiled quietly in the corner.

At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, Mitarai Anko returned to the barbecue restaurant.

In the store, Jingzi was holding some small items in her arms, her face beaming with joy.

On the side, Mitarashi Anko's expression kept changing, and she was obviously thinking about something in her heart.

It was only after a while that Kyoko noticed something was wrong with Mitarashi Anko.

"Hongdou, what's wrong with you?" she asked.

"Ah? Kyoko, tell me, what should I do if I find a group of people who want to harm the village?" Anko Mitarashi woke up from her thoughts. She pondered for a few seconds before asking.

"Someone wants to do harm to the village! Of course, he should report it to the village immediately!"

Kyoko was shocked when she heard this. She quickly stood up and took Mitarashi Anko out to report to the village.

"But, I have no evidence! Moreover, their identities are very unusual," Mitarashi Anko said with a look of embarrassment as she grabbed Kyoko.

Jingzi asked: "Very unusual? What are their identities?"

Mitarai Anko said: "They are Asuma's former companions, the twelve guardian ninjas beside the daimyo."

"The Twelve Guardian Ninja around the Daimyo? What are they doing in Konoha?"

Hearing this, Jingzi also hesitated.

The relationship between the five hidden villages and the five great kingdoms has always been very delicate.

This is especially evident between the Fire Nation and the Leaf Village.

Because the strength of Konoha Village and its first four generations of Hokages are too strong, the daimyo of the Land of Fire have no power to influence the situation of Konoha Village.

Even, in some periods, the daimyo of the Fire Country had to rely on the support of the Leaf Village to rise to power.

This situation did not begin to slowly change until the end of the Third Ninja War and the strength of Konoha Village was greatly weakened.

"They are hiding in a small cave outside Konoha," Mitarashi Anko said.

"How did you know?"

Jingzi was surprised when he heard this.

“Someone of them was following Asma in the afternoon, and I happened to run into him, and then I followed that person all the way and found their hiding place.

Although I don't know their specific plan, judging from their sneaky whereabouts, it is definitely detrimental to the village," Mitarai Anko said with a solemn expression.

"Here, what should we do?" Jingzi didn't know what to do for a moment.

Before getting accurate information, it would definitely not be possible to rush forward to report, and it might even cause misunderstandings between the village and the Daimyos of the Fire Country.

But if they ignore it, the two women will feel uneasy.

"How about we follow over first and take a look?" After thinking about it, Mitarashi Anko suggested.

After saying that, the girl's face showed an expression of eagerness to try.

"This,"

Kyoko was a little hesitant.

"Let's go! I will protect you"

Mitarashi Anko grabbed Kyoko and ran outside the house.

This girl is now at the stage where her self-confidence is bursting.
