Escape From Konoha

The meeting with Anbu's "root" ninja ended in less than ten minutes.

Afterwards, these people went dormant again in secret. It is estimated that only when the official action is taken will they come to meet again to confirm the preparations of both parties.

When they came to a hidden grass, the three of Shiraishi sat down in a circle.

"By the way, what kind of organization is Anbu's 'root'? Is there such an organization in Anbu directly under Hokage?"

Naruto is directly under Anbu, and special courses are set up in the textbooks of the ninja school. The main reason is to prevent future ninjas from mistakenly thinking that Anbu in their village is an enemy. In order to avoid this embarrassing situation, all Konoha's Ninjas have all known this organization.

The ninjas who can join Anbu are all masters. The main composition of Anbu is seventy people, divided into four teams, each team has four classes, and the four teams have a total of sixteen squad leaders.

And every squad leader's strength is at least at the top level.

It is used to protect Naruto and perform various high-risk classified missions. It can be said to be a ninja who protects Konoha in the dark.

But Shiraishi had never heard of Anbu's "root", so he became suspicious of the identities of those ninjas.

Ayane also shook her head. Anbu's affairs are secret. Most ninjas know that there is such an organization, as well as the composition and number of troops.

As for who joined it, and what each of the Anbu ninjas are good at, these are all secrets.

Liuli frowned slightly, clasped her hands on her chest, and said after a while of silence: "I heard about the Anbu's 'root' before, I heard the old man in the clan say it before, it is said that it is another high-ranking member of the Qianshou family. The troop directly under the army, this troop hides deeper than the usual Anbu, and the tasks they do are more invisible. They pursue the strategy of 'better kill the wrong, not let go', and silently protect Konoha in the dark."

"Pursue the strategy of killing the wrong and not letting go? Will Lord Hokage acquiesce to such a thing?"

Shiraishi was puzzled by this.

If this kind of thing is revealed, it will cause a huge blow to the high-level reputation led by Hokage.

Even after Anbu catches someone, an interrogation phase is required to determine whether a person is an enemy or a friend.

And people from Anbu's "root" don't need to do this, as long as they are subjectively judged as enemies, they will be directly obliterated.

If such an organization operates improperly, it can easily cause huge loss of prestige to the rulers of the authorities, leading to forced resignation.

"This matter should be acquiesced. If there is no acquiescence, the roots will not grow up with the power of Anbu. The ninjas of this organization have no names, no feelings, no past, and no future. They only have tasks in their hearts that must be completed. "

After listening to Liu Li's description, Shiraishi and Ayane remembered this mission. The people from Anbu's "Root" planned to use their own body bombs to destroy the supply point of the Sandyin Ninja, which really fits the category of machines.

The only purpose of their existence is to complete the task.

As for the means and sacrifice, that is something that will be considered after the mission, or need not be considered.

"What a bunch of scary guys."

Shiraishi sighed.

No matter when, this kind of person who does not even care about his own life for a certain goal will make people feel scared from the bottom of his heart.

Without the abyss-like darkness, there is no beautiful and calm lake.

No matter what era it is, these people who work silently in the dark are needed.

"Then, let's get down to business, what do you think about this mission?"

Liuli spread out the map given to them by the ninjas of Anbu's "Root" on the ground. This is a precise map of the country of the river. All places are recorded on it, and the distance and environmental information are marked.

Liuli pointed to an area in the belly of the River Country, where the supply point of Shayin Village was located, and it was also the location where Shiraishi and the others attacked.

Looking at the map, Shiraishi said slowly: "The supply point is very close to Sandyin's camp. From the distance marked above, the support can be reached in only ten minutes. That is to say, we have caused large-scale riots from the feint attack. We only have ten minutes to act until we leave the battlefield safely. With the strength of the three of us, it is too much."

The division of labor in the plan is very clear. Shiraishi and the others are responsible for feinting to maximize the disturbance, and then quickly leave the battlefield, switch the ninja of Anbugen to explode on the field, destroy all the supplies at the sandy supply point, and complete this mission.

The difficulty of the task lies in how to quickly and effectively cause large-scale riots within ten minutes, attract the attention of the sandy ninja, and create a reliable attack environment for the ninjas of Anbu's "root", and then how to evacuate the battlefield in time to avoid being attacked by himself. The human detonator spread to it.

"No matter how you look at it, ten minutes is too short."

Ayane nodded, agreeing with what Shiraishi said.

The number of Sandyin ninjas guarding the supply point in the country of the river is definitely not small, not to mention the Shangnin-level ninjas. Even if there are more than ten Shangnin-level ninjas in such an important area.

In addition to the Shangnin, the equipped Chunin will not be too small. To complete the feint task under the siege of so many Shangnin and Chunin, the time limit is ten minutes. In theory, this is almost impossible to complete. Task.

"If there is a riot, I can use a large-scale fire escape. And because there are important supplies there, the sandy ninja will not use large-scale ninjutsu attacks, so this is a more favorable place for us. It's not an easy thing to get out of Sandyin's encirclement. I remember you made a lot of useful props before you came out this time."

Liuli glanced at Shiraishi.

"I didn't expect it to come in handy so quickly."

Shiraishi sighed helplessly, took out a scroll from his ninja bag, spread it on the ground, and unlocked the sealing technique on it, and a pile of things appeared along with white smoke.

"these are…"

Ayane picked up a projectile that looked like a smoke bomb, showing curiosity.

"Containing highly toxic smoke bombs, the range and duration are longer than ordinary smoke bombs, as well as antidote."

"But if the enemy uses the wind to spread..."

"It doesn't matter, then I will use the fire escape technique. If the enemy uses the wind escape to attack, it will strengthen my fire escape technique and expand the fire escape range."

In this way, the enemy's Feng Dun can't be used easily, and the three of them can use the poisonous mist to feint and make a scene there.

However, after that, there will be a large number of sand hidden ninjas to hunt down, and how to escape requires careful planning.

At this time, the sky was already dark, and the river valley area at the border between the land of fire and the land of rivers was already shrouded in darkness, and there were bursts of cold wind.

"Let's talk about the retreat plan on the way. We have to arrive at the mission site in the middle of the night. There are only less than six hours left, and the time is very fast."

This time it was a surprise attack plan, so I didn’t have a long time to think about countermeasures, and I had to destroy the supply point before it was moved.

Otherwise, once the timeliness of the information has passed, it will not be so simple to find out the location of Sha Yin's supply point again.

◎

In the middle of the night, the Konoha camp on the border of the country of fire was so silent that there was not even the chirping of insects.

In a tent, the simple electric lights inside were a little dim, and only the center of the tent was lit, and the edges of the tent were still covered by darkness.

Tsunade was standing in front of a table sorting out a piece of information.

Because the information this time is no trivial matter, it needs to be carefully reviewed.

At this moment, a white-haired ninja came in from outside.

"Tsunade, are you still working? It's already this time."

The visitor was Jiraiya, who was the same as Tsunade. As soon as he came in, he smiled at Tsunade and said hello.

"It's you, Jiraiya. Is there something wrong?"

Tsunade looked up at Jiraiya and continued to lower his head to check the information carefully.

It can be seen that she is not in the mood to talk to anyone now.

Seeing Tsunade like this, Jiraiya sighed softly and said, "I'm sorry about the rope tree, if I was there at that time..."

If Sandyin and Konoha went to war, he could come back as soon as possible and take care of him with Orochimaru, maybe he could avoid the tragedy of Roshu.

However, this matter has passed, and people cannot be resurrected from the dead. Seeing that the smile on Tsunade's face is much less than before, Jiraiya felt both worry and guilt in his heart.

"This has nothing to do with you!"

Tsunade's tone was very cold.

Hearing Jiraiya talking about the rope tree, Tsunade felt a pain in his heart, but he quickly cheered up and didn't get knocked down because of this kind of thing.

She is now carrying a lot of Konoha ninja's life, and she must not show a weak posture at such a time, making people look down on her.

"…"

Jiraiya stood silently by the side, not refuting Tsunade's words.

"Since you're back, just do your job quickly. Don't get in the way of my work here."

Tsunade's tone softened, but his intention to drive him away was clear.

Jiraiya didn't say anything, but a lost expression appeared on his face.

"and many more!"

Tsunade suddenly stopped him.

"what's up?"

Zilai also felt strange.

"This time, the mission of the surprise attack on the sandy supply point is the Sakumo team, right?"

Tsunade suddenly asked a question that had nothing to do with the present.

"It's Sakumo's team. Because this task is very important, only Sakumo is suitable to complete this task, so the above task is handed over to his team to complete."

The task of cutting off the Shayin supply point this time is related to the future of the battle.

If the task can be completed perfectly, then the interior of Shayin Village will be self-defeating due to insufficient supplies, and Konoha will achieve the greatest consequences with a very small sacrifice.

At that time, the two sides will enter a peace conference, which will end the war that lasted for more than two years.

If it fails, it means that the war will continue to suffer. For Konoha and the Land of Fire, this is not a good result.

The best result is to end the war quickly, and the two sides will enter a peace conference to end the war through peace talks.

And Jiraiya has great confidence in Sakumo's ability, and even has great confidence in this mission.

It's not just him. The village has already begun to draft the peace talks between Konoha and Sandyin.

Seeing Tsunade's increasingly wrong face, Jiraiya's heart suddenly burst, and he hurriedly asked, "What happened?"

"The information on this contradicts the plan I made with Orochimaru. And this is not the usual connector signal of Anbe..."

Tsunade took out one of the many documents.

After hearing this sentence, Jirai's expression changed.

"Jiraiya, when you were in the village, when you took over the information from Anbu, were you sure that no one had lost the package?"

Tsunade frowned at Jiraiya.

Because of the importance of the matter, the information transmitted from Konoha this time was sent to Jiraiya by Anbu, and then Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas, was personally escorted to the front line to ensure that nothing could go wrong.

"Impossible! I've been working with Sakumo's team along the way, it's impossible for anyone to act on this information!"

Jiraiya snatched the piece of information from Tsunade and read it carefully from beginning to end.

His face is getting worse and worse.

"What, what's going on here? Why is the content on this different from what Sarutobi-sensei explained?"

Jiraiya's shoulders began to shake, and he looked at the information displayed above in disbelief.

"It seems that you have been tricked. Since there was no accident on the way, there is only one possibility. You are in Anbu of Konoha Joint, not Sarubi-sensei's subordinate."

Tsunade's words were like a thunderbolt from the blue, making Jiraiya's body stiff and cold sweat pouring out of his face.

This is utterly bad!

The second thing is that the mission cannot be completed. If he accidentally fell into the enemy's calculations, causing the Sakumo team to die in this mission, then the problem is the real problem.

"No, I have to save them!"

Zilai was also sweating profusely, and rushed out of the tent without any hesitation.

"Wait, Jiraiya, don't be impulsive, even if you rush over now—"

However, when Tsunade chased after him, Jiraiya had already disappeared into the vast darkness and disappeared.

"This idiot, if he rushed to rescue like this, he could easily be ambushed by the enemy!"

Tsunade cursed in a low voice, but could only helplessly stare at the tent door.
