Naruto Guilty Crown

In the early morning of Konoha Village, the streets seemed empty, and merchants laid out their shops leisurely. Along the way, from time to time, they encountered several panic-looking children running wildly with school bags on their backs, passing by Sakura Manji and others.

Lian Weasel yawned again and said sadly: "I thought I could sleep well on my first day in Konoha..."

No one responded, and Jin Yu and Feng Yin had bleary eyes on their faces. Although Ying Manji came out of the government affairs hall at around nine o'clock in the morning, she was crazy until midnight last night and still didn't have enough sleep time.

"Is this really okay? I won't say goodbye to Yuka." Rikka stopped and asked hesitantly.

"That's enough." Ying Manji chuckled and scratched the back of her head: "When she starts crying, I can't resist it."

"Really, throw all your problems at me, I'm not omnipotent." Rikka was angry, raising her hands as if to scratch.

Ying Manji raised her hands in cooperation and made a gesture of begging for mercy. After escaping the attack, she looked at her seriously: "She is more afraid of being alone, and she wants you to worry more."

"Obviously he is just a child, but he still pretends to be an elder and preaches." Liuhua pinched her waist and said angrily: "Yesterday's interaction was all planned by you to drive away her feeling of strangeness towards us. ?”

"It's part of it." Ying Manji scratched her head and looked like you had discovered her: "The most important thing is to make her forget the scars on the road."

"There's really nothing I can do about you! I don't know how long I'll have to coax you." After getting the answer, Rikka sighed helplessly and waved her hands as if to drive away evil spirits: "Let's go, let's go, I have to think about it too. Countermeasures will be sent not far away."

Regarding Sakura Manji's conversation with the Hokage, Rikka was measured and didn't mention a word or ask a question.

Even if you could tell, his expression was cold and depressed when he first came out.

Ying Manji and others raised their hands high and waved them in the air, their backs fading away.

Rikka also turned around and went back, thinking anxiously about how to deal with the little princess's accusation.

……

As for the little princess, she was sleeping quietly and sweetly on the bed, with a lazy posture like a little kitten. Her hands were tightly holding the pillow, and her little head was leaning on it, revealing her cute and beautiful side face.

The corners of her mouth raised in a graceful arc, she must be having a good dream.

This was the most solid sleep she had had recently, and it was also the only good dream she had ever had.

……

The promise made to the samurai was fulfilled, and Ying Manji felt temporarily relieved.

Even though the warrior's void existed in his body, he never took it out to look at it, and it gradually became a symbolic thing.

Like the Sword of Damocles hanging above his head, he is always alert, letting him know the cruelty of the world and the consequences he will face if he has no strength.

Ying Manji's back was straight, her steps became more determined, and the smile on her lips had an arc similar to that of the little princess.

The short but exciting journey to Konoha should be considered over.

Looking at the Konoha High Gate in front of her, when Sakura Manji was thinking this, a cold wind blew in front of her, and four people wearing ninja uniforms and flower masks appeared out of thin air.

The gazes under the masks of the four people were like the surface of a frozen lake, without a trace of warmth or ripples. They were empty and firm, like a cold machine with only tasks and goals.

"Everyone, please come with us." The leader in the middle took a step forward and made a weird tone, unable to distinguish between men and women.

It was a familiar scene. At midnight last night, several people in similar attire suddenly landed and informed him to meet the Hokage.

If the Hokage wants to keep him, there is no need to go to such trouble. Since he has let him go, it will naturally not be him again.

Ying Manji pondered slightly and asked directly: "Who is it this time?"

"Lord Danzo." There was a hint of coldness in his voice, telling him with a faint threat that the result of rejection would not be friendly.

Jin Yu and others beside them were already awake. After coming back to their senses, they touched the shurikens in their pockets and faced each other vigilantly, waiting for the silver-haired boy to make a decision.

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go, don't waste time." Ying Manji patted Jin Yu's shoulder and looked at them, signaling them to relax.

The masked leader nodded and took the lead in leading the way.

Ying Manji and others were in the middle, followed by three masked men, standing scattered and keeping an eye on everyone.

"This atmosphere is not right, I feel like the person who came here is not good-natured!" Lian Weitai looked around and said in a low voice: "If we put on shackles again, we will just be escorting the prisoners~"

Jin Yu slapped him on the shoulder with a fierce slap, grinning and teasing: "You feel scared? Did you do something bad yesterday when we weren't paying attention, so you feel guilty?"

Because the force was too great, Lian Weasel's body trembled as if he was really frightened.

Feng Yin was on the side, blinking and looking at him.

Lian Weitai's face turned red, and he felt ashamed inside. He raised his leg and kicked Jin Yu on the butt, and said angrily: "Get out! I'm not you. Don't speculate on me with your dirty thoughts."

"Hey! Young man, it's okay!" Jin Yu staggered due to the attack, stood up straight, turned around, stretched his arms, and said with a sly smile: "You have become hardened along the way, give me a chokehold."

"Ahhhh~ I admit...I admit defeat."

"With these two living treasures here, it's really hard to be serious." Ying Manji thought to herself and shook her head helplessly.

Jin Yu was not as happy as he looked on the inside, but he pretended to be so good that no one could see it.

He deliberately caused the topic to lighten the atmosphere, but in his heart he once again asked himself why he was not strong enough.

He could see that Ying Manji didn't want to take this trip, but the opponent was not someone who could talk well. If they started to attack, Ying's team with three drags would definitely not be their opponent.

It would be great if I had the strength of an elite Jonin. All this would be easily solved. It doesn't matter whether you are Danzo or not, just go out all the way. Who can stop us?

Fascinated by the thought, Jin Yu locked his hands tighter, while Lian Weasel endured the hardship.

"Huh...huh...I can't breathe!!!"

All the way to the right, the streets and alleys kept turning, and the number of passers-by gradually became less and less.

It felt like they had walked more than half the distance of Konoha Village, and when even Sakura Manji felt impatient in her heart, she finally stood in front of a large Japanese-style courtyard and stopped.

"Have you finally arrived after all this meticulous work?" Ying Manji asked with a raised eyebrow.

The leading masked man did not answer. He stepped forward alone to communicate with the guard in a low voice. From an angle that no one could see, he quickly and secretly flipped the mysterious seal in his hand, but there was no fluctuation of chakra on his body.

Half a minute later, Sakura Manji saw the watcher glance at him and nodded to the leading ninja.

The leader waved to everyone and led them into the courtyard.

When passing through the gate, Ying Manji paused in her steps and clearly felt a cold and vicious aura. However, it dissipated after entering and she felt much more relaxed.

Looking back at the people who were entering the gate with the same strange expressions, Ying Manji felt reassured and her mood became much lower.

This is called Hidden Jutsu Barrier. He had seen it on a scroll before. Its full name is Triggered Hidden Ninjutsu Barrier!

The layout is very difficult and requires a long time of preparation. Compared with other enchantments, it has no other advantages except concealment and instant triggering.

Most ninja battles use random seals, so it is not common in the outside world. I didn't expect to see it here.

As expected, Konoha is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. This guy named Danzo actually uses this high-intensity ninjutsu as a gatekeeping technique.

It's really not simple...

Um! ? ! ! !

It doesn’t feel like this! ? real or fake! ?

When entering the door, there was a flash of blood heat. Ying Manji originally thought it was an illusion caused by the barrier.

As we went deeper into the house, this feeling not only did not weaken, but became more intense. Even the area covered by the bandage on my right hand stirred up waves.

This feeling of rising and surging, constantly hitting your mind is unmistakable!

He had been waiting for this feeling to appear, but he didn't expect it to come so suddenly, leaving him unprepared.

Ying Manji was walking in the yellow wooden corridor. Unknowingly, her tears were like broken pearls, uncontrollably sliding down her cheeks. The crystal clear tears, like his true heart, had always been pure and unchanged.

The softest part deep in my heart blooms only for you.

"Eqi...is that you?"
