Three days later.

Konoha Village, inside the Hokage office.

The then Third Hokage: Hiruzen Sarutobi was watching the mission briefing.

At this moment, his face was solemn and his brows were furrowed.

He never expected that an originally inconspicuous C-level mission could involve so many changes.

The Bridge Builder, the Country of Waves, Kirigakure Rebellious Ninjas, Attacks in Turn, Kirigakure Anbu, Jinchuuriki Chakra Leakage, etc...

It is so complex that even ordinary A-level tasks cannot compare to it.

This time, luckily it was Kakashi who led the team.

Otherwise, if it were another ordinary jounin.

It's very possible that he was cut in half by the 'Kiroshigakure Ghost Man' in one move.

However, despite this, Kakashi is still covered in scars.

According to the report, the powerful Kirigakure ANBU ninja who suddenly appeared is even more mysterious.

Not only could he easily subdue Zabuza with one move.

Moreover, he also had close contact with Naruto, who was the Jinchuriki of the Nine-Tails, which really made Sarutobi Hiruzen have to take it seriously!

now.

Kakashi and Iruka, both covered in bandages, were kneeling on one knee in the Hokage's office.

Waiting for instructions from Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"How is the seal of the Nine-Tails?" Sarutobi Hiruzen asked in a deep voice.

Obviously, after experiencing the disaster 12 years ago, the problem of Kyuubi was far more important in Sarutobi's heart than anything else.

Or perhaps, it was just because of the tragedy.

He just ordered that no one should be allowed to approach Naruto when he was young, and let Naruto be discriminated against.

"The seal is intact, nothing abnormal."

Iruka quickly reported the report.

As soon as he returned to the village, he carefully checked it with the ninjas from the sealing class and confirmed that there was nothing unusual.

"Kakashi, when that Kirigakure Anbu came into contact with Naruto's seal, did he have any strange phenomena?"

"There was nothing strange, and there was no overflow of Nine-Tails chakra." Kakashi also reported truthfully.

After all, in their opinion, if the seal is touched.

Absolutely no one can resist the erosion of Nine-Tails chakra.

only.

How could they have imagined that there were people in the world who could scare the Nine-Tails so much that even if the seal was released, they would not even take a step out of the cage...

He would never have imagined that someone had unknowingly taken away a large amount of Nine-Tails Chakra.

"So, that Kirigakure ANBU didn't succeed?"

"It should be. It stands to reason that without the key, the [Bagua Seal] cannot be unlocked."

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.

And continued to warn: "That's good. But don't be careless. Next, you have to pay more attention to Naruto to avoid any accidents."

"As ordered!"

"Okay, Kakashi, tell me what you think about this mission."

Kakashi pondered for a moment and said truthfully.

"I feel that this mission is full of surprises. Whether it is the attack of the 'Kirigakure Ghost Man' or the appearance of the Kirigakure Anbu, it is too much of a coincidence."

Kakashi, who was thoughtful, actually felt the slightest abnormality, but could not analyze any doubts.

It can only be described as too much of a coincidence.

"That Zabuza is indeed very powerful. He uses the 'Kirigakure no Jutsu' and coordinates the assassination with precision. He is almost invincible."

"But the most terrifying thing is the Kirigakure Anbu who appeared later."

"His power is completely beyond the level of ordinary Kirigakure ANBU. Even I am far behind..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression became even more solemn.

Although, among the five hidden villages.

The [Mist Hidden Village], which is shrouded in 'mist' and pursues the policy of 'Blood Mist', is the most mysterious.

Therefore, it is not surprising that one or two mysterious and powerful ninjas emerge from its ANBU.

However, even Kakashi, who is an elite Jonin and half-step Kage level, is not the Kirigakure ninja who is the enemy of Ichigo.

It's really too strong!

"Could the opponent be Kirigakure's Jinchuuriki?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen guessed.

After all, under normal circumstances, only the jinchūriki could possess such terrifying combat power.

"No, absolutely not. There is no trace of the tailed beast in the opponent's body, and he doesn't have much chakra. He seems to be only at the chunin level."

"That's strange. What ninjutsu is the opponent good at?"

"Water escape! That person is extremely good at water escape ninjutsu. Even without forming seals, he can instantly perform various intermediate and advanced water escape techniques."

"Wuyin casts spells? So talented?"

"Not only that, the other party seems to have used some kind of very powerful [Blood Succession Limit], which seems to be a ninjutsu that controls blood. I have never heard of it!"

Hear this.

The Third Hokage was even more unusually silent.

The [blood succession limit] ninjutsu that controls blood is rare in the entire ninja world.

The only memory he has is the terrifying existence that once made the first Hokage, Hashirama-sama, fearful.

That one, the 'First Mizukage' who was hidden under the history of the ninja world.

That is also the most frightening of the many taboos hidden in Konoha.

But, after a while.

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and forced this speculation out of his head.

That person must not be the first generation Mizukage.

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

That guy has been sealed and disappeared for more than sixty years, how could he suddenly appear again?

And, if it is really him.

It is impossible for Kakashi and the others to come back alive.

After all, if you face that guy.

Not to mention one Kakashi, even ten of himself would probably have no chance of winning.

As for the so-called ninjutsu that controls blood, it is probably just Kakashi who admitted his mistake.

Or maybe Kirigakure left behind some other secret technique.

Not enough to be afraid of.

"Okay, it's been a hard trip for you Kakashi. Go down and rest and recuperate."

"Just let this matter go. I'll let the ANBU investigate the follow-up questions."

"understand!"

"In addition, the joint 'Chūnin Selection Trial' between Konoha and Sunagakure Village is about to begin. Let your disciples prepare."

"Especially Naruto, you must keep a close eye on him during this period!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen warned patiently again.

Then, Kakashi and the two were asked to retreat.

As for himself, he sat alone, meditating secretly.

His intuition told him that something big was about to happen.

Recently, the situation in various villages, which had been calm for several years, seems to be undercurrent again.

Every time at this time, he couldn't help but think back to his outstanding disciple, the fourth generation 'Minato Namikaze'.

If he were still here, he would definitely be an extremely good Hokage.

If Konoha's 'golden flash' is still there, how can other hidden villages dare to act rashly.

Just when Sarutobi Hiruzen was filled with emotion.

bang.

A figure with squinting eyes suddenly opened the door and strode into the office.

The next moment, Danzo, with a gloomy face, went straight to the topic and asked loudly:

"Sarutobi, the Kyuubi Jinchuuriki was in close contact with someone from Kirigakure?"

"And there was chakra overflow?!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen snorted, "Danzo, you are very well informed!"

"Hmph! Sarutobi, stop changing the subject."

"You know how unstable the Jinchuuriki is. This time I was contacted by Kirigakure's people. Who knows if the other party left any hidden tricks."

"I suggest that you immediately hand over the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki to the root guard for inspection. To avoid causing another catastrophe!"

"By the way, there is also the remaining evil boy from the Uchiha clan. But don't forget your original choice. If he has a problem outside, he will be a big trouble. It's better to hand him over to the care of the roots. !”

Danzo shouted with a righteous look on his face.

Obviously, he has been coveting the Kyuubi and the Uchiha orphans for a long time.

This time, it happened to be an opportunity to attack.In order to snatch both Kyuubi and Uchiha Sasuke into his own hands.

Therefore, this is the reason why he emerged in a hurry.
