Travel through Konoha and open treasure chests

Chapter 384 Spy

Sandai looked through it once and nodded:

"Well, I have received this list, but there are still a few months until the next batch of genin students graduate. Some of the specific details still need further investigation and verification. I will report it later. I’ll give you an answer.”

"In addition, for the ninja students who graduate from the Uchiha clan this time, I will also arrange appropriate instructors for them as appropriate."

Knocking on the table with his fingers, Sandai pondered for a while, seemed to suddenly think of something, and raised his head: "By the way, speaking of it, Itachi, your brother is also attending a ninja school now, right?"

"Ah, yes."

Itachi was stunned for a moment, his originally calm eyes were disturbed, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Thanks to the concern of the third generation, my younger brother Sasuke is now a second-year student of the ninja school, but the child is stupid by nature, and until now He hasn't shown his talent as a ninja yet, so it's not worth mentioning."

"Haha, he has the blood of the Uchiha clan and is Fugaku's son. It's too early to say that he doesn't have ninja talent."

The third generation also smiled, grabbed the pipe, put it to his mouth and took two puffs, then slowly said: "Itachi, I wonder if you are interested in going to be the leader of the genin students?"

""

Itachi stared.

Before he could answer, he heard hurried footsteps coming from the corridor outside. The door of the office was knocked several times and pushed open from the outside.

A tall ANBU with an animal mask on his face walked in quickly:

"Hokage-sama, the confidential information coming from Iwagakure Village has been deciphered by the code squad. Please take a look."

The conversation between the two came to an abrupt end.

Itachi raised his head slightly, his eyes flashing.

"Iwagakure Village"

Upon hearing this name, the third generation's face quickly became serious, he coughed a few times and glanced at Itachi subconsciously.

The black-haired boy bowed and said wisely:

"Since the Third Generation still has important matters that need to be discharged, I will go back first."

After saying that, Itachi glanced at the ANBU who delivered the message, turned around and walked out.

Although he didn't know what the content of this information was, as a former ANBU elite, with his excellent mind and mission experience, Itachi could easily guess that this information was probably from Konoha's spies planted in Iwagakure Village. issued.

The relationship between Konoha and Iwagakure has been very tense since the end of the Third Ninja War. Because the two countries are geographically close and have similar overall military strength, they have had direct battles in several Ninja War. experience. Especially in the three wars, a series of battles represented by the Battle of Kannabi Bridge brought huge losses to both sides. Until now, the two countries still maintain a relationship of sworn enemies.

In this case, the message from Iwagakure is particularly important.

Isn't a war about to break out?

This thought flashed through Itachi's mind, and then he laughed it off. Local conflicts and small-scale wars were possible, but a war on the scale of the Ninja World War was almost impossible. Less than ten years after the end of the Third Ninja World War, no country dares to risk the world's disapproval and break this hard-won peace. The competition for resources between each other is often through some roundabout ways. Way.

For example, some small countries can be used as chessboards to compete in national strength in a distance game.

Or use the Chuunin Exam to demonstrate your strength.

Overall, things are still developing in a good direction.

As for what will happen in the future?

no one knows.

Within three or five steps, Itachi quickly walked out of the Hokage's office and closed the door.

In front of the desk, the sound of scrolls being turned was heard.

After a long time, Sandai took a few puffs of cigarette, raised his head, and stared at the ANBU in front of him with a pair of cloudy eyes: "Is the news true?"

Anbu nodded and responded respectfully:

"The source of this information is a spy we placed inside Yanyin Village seven years ago. There is no problem with his loyalty. As for the authenticity of the information, although it cannot be verified for sure yet, in the past one or two months, The ninja troops of Iwagakure Village did have several abnormal gathering actions, which can basically match what the intelligence said."

"Is it"

The third generation frowned and tapped the pipe in his hand: "The Country of Birds is an important ally of the Country of Fire. Its commercial transportation channels are irreplaceable by other neighboring countries. If the Iwagakure Village wants to attack it, , it is necessary for Konoha to assist it.

Shinnosuke, this task will be handed over to ANBU, and you will have full authority to decide on matters related to personnel deployment. "

"Yes."

Sarutobi Shinnosuke responded and was about to set off to do something.

The third generation seemed to suddenly think of something, and called him from behind: "By the way, for this operation, we can discuss with Shisui and let him bring a team of ninjas from the Uchiha clan to go together. Maybe we can take this opportunity to eliminate The dissatisfaction accumulated within the Uchiha clan has also somewhat changed the views of the people in the village towards Uchiha."

Sarutobi Shinnosuke was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "I understand."

Let’s not talk about what happened in Konoha for now.

On the third day after receiving the mission from the Kingdom of Birds, Scorpion and Orochimaru appeared in front of the stronghold of the Kingdom of Grass.

Bai Mingyu and Ye Cang were both ready. After the two groups reunited, they started heading towards the Kingdom of Birds. Because the four people in the team were not weak in strength and were fast on their feet, just one day later, several figures wearing black and red cloud robes appeared in the Kingdom of Birds.

"Is this the country of birds?"

On top of a higher cliff, several people stopped.

Taking a bird's eye view from above, you can have a panoramic view of things more than ten miles ahead, including large tracts of dense woods, clear streams, and villages dotted among these woods. Rows of houses are close to each other. A gray smoke curled up from the chimney on the farmer's roof.

A peaceful and peaceful scene.

However, neither of the two people in the team were interested in admiring this scenery.

"Is the location of the capital of Bird Country over there?"

Xie raised his head and looked as far away as he could, then looked back at Bai Mingyu and Ye Cang: "It would be too ostentatious for four people to act together. Orochimaru and I entered the city from the front and killed the people in Daming Mansion. The daimyo himself and his men, your mission is to go around from the side and kill all the fish that try to escape from the castle, do you understand?"

"If you understand, let's take action."

After saying that, Xia dragged the shell of Fei Liuhu and left slowly, and Orochimaru followed him.

Although the relationship between them is not good, this pair of snakes and scorpions still have some tacit understanding when it comes to tasks.
