Konoha's Strongest Empress

After half a day.

All the members of the Sakura team who were traveling outside gathered in the bamboo forest.

After years of training, they are no longer the ignorant brats they were at the beginning. Everyone has a calmness and confidence on their faces, affirmation of their own strength.

As a result, there were many scars on his body, which were left in the past battles.

Looking at the eight people in front of her, Qi Ying didn't exchange too many greetings, and told the recent events one by one, and told the eight people what happened today.

Except for Itachi and Izumi who already knew about it, the eight people who learned about it only knew a little bit about it, and they all seemed a little surprised.

Unexpectedly, things would develop to such a point that the captain had already contacted the enemy.

Moreover, he also cracked Qi Ying's illusion, which instead made Qi Ying fall into his illusion.

This person, at least in terms of illusion, is stronger than many people in Konoha.

"Wait a minute, Master Qiying, you said you met a Sharingan clan member wearing ANBU, but" Itachi suddenly remembered something and asked with a frown.

"Yes, there are no members of the Uchiha clan in the Anbe directly under Hokage, I have already investigated." Qi Ying replied with her hands on her waist, her eyes slightly closed.

Everyone present had more or less contact with Anbu personnel, and knew that there would not be too close a connection between the Uchiha clan and Konoha Anbe.

The clearest of these is Kakashi who joined Anbu.

"Could it be Danzo's Anbu, I heard that there are people from the Uchiha clan under him." Kakashi took off his mask, walked in front of Qiying and said.

"Danzo, he is indeed a very suspicious person, but it is not confirmed that it is him. After all, this happened in Konoha Village. He should not do such a move that is not good for him."

"No matter what, I called you back because I want you to help investigate this matter together. Recently, the Kingdom of Sakura and the Kingdom of Fire will hold a meeting, and I may not have time to investigate." Qi Ying said helplessly. After curling his lips, he continued.

"According to intelligence, in the past five months including this month, people from the Uchiha tribe have been attacked. Now that the people from the other side have contacted me, it is hard to guarantee whether they will change their usual way of action."

"Just in case, Itachi and Izumi, you two are members of the Uchiha clan, and it is convenient for you to come and go here, so you should secretly protect Shion and investigate."

"For the others, Ibixi, Hongdou, you two, go and investigate Konoha's Anbe and Ne's subordinates, and act without being exposed as much as possible. If you are exposed, stop immediately."

"That old thief in Danzo is not so easy to deal with."

"Yes." The four people who heard the order nodded.

Metkai on the side gave a thumbs up energetically and shouted to Qiying: "Then I am the captain"

"Kai, I told you, this is a secret meeting. Are you so loud that others won't hear you?" Qiying glanced at Kai angrily, then looked at Kakashi: "Kakashi, you know the ANBU better. According to the action method, you go to assist Anko and Ibiki in investigating the ANBU."

"Yes"

"Kai, Hong, Asma, the three of you will observe the actions of other ninjas in the village, as well as high-level ones, and get as much information as possible."

"Yes"

"Until this matter is investigated clearly, Team Sakura's mission is temporarily cancelled."

"That's it for the meeting, let's disperse." Qiying waved, and the people in front of her disappeared.

But Itachi and Izumi remained where they were, as if they still had something to say.

"What's wrong Itachi?" Qiying looked at Itachi who was hesitant to speak in confusion. Every time Itachi showed this expression, it meant that he had something unspeakable.

"No, I've been investigating this matter recently. Not long ago, when I was on a bounty mission, I saw members of the Uchiha clan."

“Outside the village”

"Yes."

"who is it"

Under normal circumstances, the Uchiha people rarely have the task of traveling outside the village. This is also because the Uchiha family has a very special status in Konoha, and there is still a self-built ninja village in the Uchiha.

This made Fire Nation inevitably raise its vigilance against the Uchiha clan in secret.

"Uchiha Shishui."

"stop water"

After hearing Itachi's words, Qi Ying thought of the boy who fought with her on the battlefield a few years ago.

He should have grown into a good ninja by now, after all, he started the existence of the kaleidoscope at a young age, and Shisui hasn't had much contact with him in the past six years.

etc.

If it was Zhishui, he might be able to do it in a scene like today.

Although Zhishui is most famous for his teleportation technique, but aside from his other gods, the pupil power of the kaleidoscope is not comparable to that of ordinary sharingan.

But

Does this matter really have something to do with Shisui? In the original book, although Shisui is one of the few people who are devoted to Konoha, he will not persecute his tribe.

"Do you know what he is doing outside the village?"

"No, I was also on a mission at that time, so I didn't catch up. I was afraid of revealing my identity. It's just that I was alone during the Zhishui operation. It must be a classified mission."

"That's it"

Due to his own intervention, the relationship between Itachi and Shisui is not as in the original book, and the contact between the two is very little.

Switching to the situation of Itachi in the original book, it is estimated that we can know what Shisui's actions are.

In this situation, I really don't want to place the suspect on Zhi Shui, but now, everyone must be investigated.

"I see, Itachi, you and Izumi can continue to protect Shion, and I'll investigate Shisui."

"Yeah." After the two nodded, they left the bamboo forest with a blink of an eye after leaving a word.

"Master Qiying, you must be careful."

"Hmph, I haven't reached the point where I want you to worry, idiot disciple." Qi Ying curled up the corner of her mouth slightly, and after a cold snort, she formed a seal with one hand, and her body began to turn into a ball of cherry-colored petals.

Everything is arranged, let's prepare for the meeting first.

It is the first major meeting held by the two countries for a long time, and such a meeting still makes people have to pay attention to it.

Even if there is a slight mistake in the talks, it may cause the country of Sakura to suffer huge losses. Talks between countries can only be said to be beneficial.

And such a meeting must also come with two attendants, which has always been a rule.

As for the object to bring, I already have a candidate.

Inori Sakura, who turned into cherry blossoms and fluttered in the air, rushed straight to the shipyard in the Land of Fire.

I wonder how that girl Xiaoxue is doing now
