A level should be an elite jounin, the standard of quasi-kage level, should reach the level of Metkai.
If the basic physical body reaches this level, the Eight Gate Dunjia does not need the sixth gate, and he will no longer be afraid of Orochimaru.
Now, he looked at Shiro and Momochi Zabuza.
Originally he thought he still needed to let them escape.
But from the looks of it, going to Konoha won't kill them.
In that case, let's bring it back to Konoha.
...
A few days later.
Hokage's office.
"I didn't expect you to really come back with this kind of trouble." Naruto agent Nara Shikaku looked at Uchiha Haruki who was kneeling on one knee in front of him with a headache.
Konoha does not want war, and the rebellious ninjas in other ninja villages are trouble for them.
Uchiha Yangshu said: "It's better to have something than nothing."
"That's true. Kakashi also said that without you here, it would be impossible to bring them back and give you a credit."
"Thank you, Acting Hokage."
"Okay, Yang Shu, tell me what's on your mind. Why have you been hiding your clumsiness?"
"Acting Hokage, I don't have one."
Nara Shikaku didn't hear anything, and said to himself: "In the ninja school, it's understandable that you hide your clumsy feelings. After all, you are from the Uchiha clan, and you don't need the attention of senior officials to obtain enough resources. But joining ANBU, you are still hiding your clumsiness. This may be your habit, but in this mission, why did you suddenly stop hiding your clumsiness? Is it because there are people in the ANBU that you are afraid of?"
"..." Uchiha Yangshu lowered his head and said nothing.
Nara Shikaku was still talking to himself.
"Is it your captain Gekko Hayate? He has always been a member of the ANBU directly under the Hokage, even her girlfriend Uzuki Yugao. The two of them have very innocent backgrounds and can be completely trusted.
Is it your teammate Sai? He used to be a member of the Roots, but after learning that his brother committed suicide due to illness and what Danzo had done was exposed, he was already disappointed with Danzo. Even so, I have not relaxed my surveillance of him and have not found anything yet. No problem at all.
In this case, the only one left is your other teammate, Kabuto Yakushi. He was adopted and raised by Yakushi Nonou, the captain of the medical force. His background seems to be quite innocent, but Yakushi Nonou is nowhere to be seen. He has outstanding abilities and his words are always decent and flawless..." Shikaku Nara smiled, "It turns out. It's him! Well, I understand, Yang Shu, I will take care of him. "
"..." Uchiha Yangshu couldn't help but raise his head.
"What? Do you have anything else to say?" Nara Shikaku said with a smile.
"Acting Hokage, how do you want to handle it?"
"Investigate and interrogate like ordinary spies, and find out the forces behind it."
Hearing this, Uchiha Yangshu was silent for a while.
After a few seconds, he sighed, as if he had compromised, and said, "Kabuto Yakushi is from Orochimaru."
"Orochimaru?" Nara Shikaku's expression condensed.
As one of the three ninjas, Orochimaru's strength has reached Kage level.
If he sets his sights on Konoha...
"Yangshu-kun, can you tell me everything you know?"
Uchiha Yangshu shook his head and said: "To scare a snake into the grass, a dog will jump over the wall. If Orochimaru, who has done human experiments, really jumps over the wall, can you imagine how terrible it would be?"
Nara Shikaku's expression changed slightly, and the relaxed smile on his face completely disappeared, leaving only seriousness.
As Orochimaru who has done human experiments and has Kage-level strength, if he is really pushed to the limit, even if Konoha can have the protection of the Third Hokage and Uchiha Fugaku, I am afraid Konoha will experience a terrible disaster like the Nine-Tails. .
But just don’t care?
"You mean to let me let Orochimaru take what he wants?"
Nara Shikaku's eyes were extremely deep, staring at Uchiha Haruki as if he could see through all thoughts.
Uchiha Yangshu sighed and said: "Do you think Orochimaru-sama, who has even done human experiments on wood escape, what else can he like about our Konoha?"
"This..." Suddenly, Nara Shikaku was speechless.
"What do you think is the reason why Jiraiya-sama never comes back?"
"Why do you ask this suddenly?"
"If you still want to talk."
"Okay, there are only two reasons why Lord Jiraiya doesn't come back.
One is that he doesn't want to be Hokage.
Second, he had long known that the Third Hokage, Lord Sarutobi Hiruzen, had such a sordid past. "
"So, why doesn't Tsunade-sama, the granddaughter of the first Hokage, come back?"
"That's because...she may be completely disappointed in Konoha." Thinking of what Sarutobi Hiruzen did, Nara Shikaku really felt more and more unhappy the more he thought about it, he was so cowardly!
"Then Tsunade-sama wishes for the destruction of Konoha?"
"No! Absolutely impossible!" Nara Shikaku said with great certainty.
"Then since she still loves Konoha but doesn't come back, you should understand the reason." Uchiha Haruki said softly.
Nara Shikaku was struck by lightning, and for a moment, he figured out why.
The Third Hokage!
Because the Third Hokage is still alive, she will never come back no matter what!
So when both Tsunade and Jiraiya were because of Hiruzen Sarutobi, and Orochimaru, as Hiruzen Sarutobi's favorite disciple, planted spies in Konoha, it was obvious what he wanted!
As a teacher he respects, but he has become more and more useless over the years and his reputation is no longer guaranteed, what will he do?
"Orochimaru wants to destroy Konoha and take the opportunity to kill..."
Halfway through, he covered his mouth and looked confused.
The next second, he looked at Uchiha Yangshu in front of him, with an inexplicably scary look on his face.
"When did you figure it out?"
“I’ve always been in the position of being an outsider.”
By outsider...do you mean looking from the sidelines?
Nara Shikaku nodded and said, "Yangshu-kun, do you want to be the Hokage's secretary?"
"Thank you, Assistant Hokage, I think my path is not here."
"Yes." Nara Shikaku nodded and said calmly, "Now that you know everything, what is your choice?"
"We'll see then."
"See you then?"
"Yes."
"Aren't you afraid that Konoha really..."
“If you don’t break, you won’t stand.”
Moreover, Konoha has become an old tree. Even with your support, the old tree is still an old tree and needs new strength, new spirit, and new leaders.
But Uchiha Yangshu didn't say the following words. In front of smart people, the more he said, the more mistakes he made.
These four words, "No destruction, no establishment" gave Nara Shikaku a great shock.
Even the way he looked at Uchiha Yangshu changed.
"Yangshu-kun, don't you really want to join in? As long as you are willing, you will definitely be able to become the Hokage's assistant in three years! Even become the first Hokage in Uchiha! This is the wish of your Uchiha clan! You... ." Nara Shikaku said excitedly.
"Hokage Assistant-sama!"
There is no other meaningful title. At this time, these words are like a bucket of cold water, which suddenly extinguishes the fire in Nara Shikaku's heart.
He was silent for a while.
After more than ten seconds, he apologized: "I lost my temper. I will pretend that I didn't notice this matter."
