Taichi could not think of anyone other than the Anbu and Roots of Konoha who could attack and kill him in the Konoha camp without triggering any alarms and allowing Orochimaru to sit idly by.

However, if Orochimaru wanted to stop him, both the root and the ANBU would probably give Orochimaru a face, or at least they wouldn't take action without saying a word.

And this situation happened now, most likely because Orochimaru wanted to see a good show.

"Humph."

Taiyi rolled his eyes at Orochimaru, pulled out a chair and sat across from Orochimaru.

"Hula~"

The curtain of the tent was opened, and two masked ninjas walked in.

Taichi, who had worked in ANBU for three years, could tell the identity of the two at a glance, one was ANBU and the other was Gen.

And that ANBU ninja was still an acquaintance of Taichi.

"Captain A1, long time no see."

Taiyi raised his hand and greeted Jiayi.

"It's been a long time indeed."

Jiayi's voice was a little hoarse, with a hint of nostalgia.

"Taiichi Yagami, the traitor who betrayed the village, I advise you to surrender and follow us back to the village to face trial!"

The root ninja on the side said suddenly.

"Orochimaru, the traitor is here, why don't you take action!"

Hearing what the root ninja said, Kakashi and Shisui's originally relaxed bodies tensed up instantly.

Taiyi looked at the root ninja in disbelief, then turned to look at Orochimaru.

No, who is this person? So brave?

He talks to you like this, why don't you mess with him?

Orochimaru seemed to understand the meaning in Taichi's eyes, smiled and shook his head, then looked at the root ninja and said.

"Sorry, I was injured in the battle a few days ago, so I can't do anything now."

"you……"

The root ninja wanted to continue to attack, but when he saw Orochimaru's cold eyes, he swallowed his words wisely.

"Hmph! Taichi Yagami, come with us, otherwise I don't mind using force."

The root ninja spoke again.

"Oh, let's do it."

Taichi stood up calmly, poured himself a cup of hot tea, and returned to his seat, not paying any attention to the root ninja.

Seeing Taichi acting so arrogantly, the root ninja couldn't help it.

"Since you are looking for death, then I will help you!"

The root ninja roared angrily and slashed at Taichi with his sword.

Tai picked up the tea cup and blew lightly, then took a sip.

When Tai's sword was about to be cut down, Tai kicked his feet to the ground, and with a "swish", he and his chair slid backwards, easily dodging the sword.

That relaxed and comfortable look made the root ninja even more angry. However, considering that this was the command tent of the Konoha camp, he could not go too far. The root ninja resisted the urge to burn Taichi to death and continued to slash at him with his sword. Taiyi.

"Shh! Shh! Shh!"

After several cuts, the root ninja's chest rose and fell violently, but Taiyi actually returned to the starting point with the chair, without spilling a drop of the hot tea in his hand.

If looks could kill, the rage in the Root Ninja's eyes was enough to burn Taichi to ashes.

It’s so disrespectful!

"Jiayi, the traitor is here, why don't you take action?!"

The root ninja said through gritted teeth.

The handsome face under Jiayi's mask frowned, and after pondering for a moment, he spoke.

"Taiyi, come back to the village with us. If you are wronged, I will give you justice."

"What if I don't go back?"

Taiyi raised his eyebrows and looked at the two people in front of him jokingly.

"Then don't blame us for being rude!"

The root ninja took a step forward and glared fiercely at Taichi.

"Captain Jiayi, do you think so too?"

Taichi ignored the threat from the root ninja and looked at Koichi.

Jiayi was silent for a moment, then slowly pulled out the sword behind him and spoke.

"Taiyi, let me see your growth."

This is really in line with Jiayi's character. He will take action if he disagrees. Being able to say so many words is enough to give Tai a face. If it were anyone else, the knife would have been put to his neck.

"Forget it, I don't want to fight with you."

Taichi stood up and stretched out his hands in front of Koichi.

Although the voice was very soft, Taiyi clearly heard Jiayi let out a sigh of relief. It seemed that Jiayi didn't want to fight Taiyi.

"Taiyi..."

Kakashi was puzzled. Hadn't they already found the evidence? Why did they still do this?

Taiyi gave Kakashi a "reassured" look and allowed Koichi to restrain his hands.

But the root ninja came over, took out a syringe, and was about to plunge it into Taiyi's neck.

There was a soft "dang" sound, and A swung his knife to chop the syringe into pieces.

"Stab it~~~"

The solution in the syringe fell to the ground, bubbling and raising purple smoke.

poison! Extremely poisonous!

"What do you mean!"

Jiayi asked in a cold tone.

Kakashi and Shisui also drew their weapons, exuding a trace of murderous intent towards the root ninja.

"This is a secret order from Hokage-sama, Taichi Yagami must die."

Even in the face of the killing intent released by the three people, the root ninja still remained calm and put the blame on the third generation.

"Nonsense! How could Hokage-sama give such an order!"

Kakashi shouted angrily.

"Hmph, if you don't believe it, you can ask Hokage yourself, but before that, Taichi Yagami must die!"

The root ninja responded indifferently, and before he finished speaking, he continued to attack.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the camp, and then, a dusty figure walked in.

"Minato-sensei!"

Kakashi exclaimed in surprise.

"Long time no see, Kakashi."

Minato said with a smile.

Then he looked at the restrained Taichi and said to the root ninja.

"The Hokage's latest order, Yagami Taichi's innocence has been confirmed. The murder of Konoha ninjas was done by the evil god sect pretending to be Taichi, and it has nothing to do with Taichi himself."

"Lord Danzo..."

The root ninja still spoke.

Minato's eyes narrowed slightly, giving off a dangerous aura.

"This is Hokage-sama's order!"

Minato said the words "Hokage-sama" in a particularly emphatic tone.

Seeing this, the root ninja could only give up. He took one last look at Taichi and left the camp.

After the root ninja left, the atmosphere in the camp suddenly became relaxed, and everyone took back their weapons.

Minato walked over to Taichi and removed the restraints on his hands.

"Taiyi, I'm going to make you suffer this time."

"Minato-sensei, I'm fine."

Tai smiled and flexed his wrist.

"Anyway, I have a clear conscience, and Konoha won't let its own people be wronged, right?"

Minato was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a wry smile.

Minato could hear dissatisfaction from Taichi's tone, but Minato could understand that anyone would be dissatisfied if a death order was issued without any investigation.

Taiyi did not directly defect from the village, which is enough to prove Taiyi's bond with the village.
