Uchiha Tunan, who returned to the town, had something to eat at the breakfast shop and then returned to the hotel to catch up on his sleep.
In the next few days, the town was calm.
Uchiha Tunan has been staying in the hotel, always using a white dove to check if anyone is coming from the direction of the border.
Time passes day by day.
The longer Uchiha Tuna waited, the more he felt that something was wrong.
According to Hatake Sakumo's strength, he should come back anyway.
Could it be that Hatake Sakumo and the others arrived at the town where the two root ninjas were stationed.
Turns out there was no one there, so no one released the flare to notify themselves?
It is possible.
However, Uchiha Tunan had no intention of going to investigate.
What if we actually bump into each other when we go there?
Could it be that he had telepathy and guessed that the Jonin stationed in that town was missing?
In the middle of the night on the tenth day, a stream of red light flew across the sky towards the town.
Uchiha Tunan quickly got up and came to the window to check.
I saw a red stream of light flying over the town and exploding like fireworks.
"It turns out to be a signal flare for the tracking principle."
Uchiha Tunan said to himself.
Then he jumped out of the window and ran towards the direction of the red streamer.
Because Kamiya Kazuki and Yoshida Taro wanted to capture the Sharingan.
Therefore, Uchiha Tunan was placed in the most peripheral town.
The location farthest from where the signal is sent.
Uchiha Tunan ran for five hours until daybreak before arriving at the location where the signal was transmitted.
This is also a garrison town.
I saw Kakashi standing at the intersection of the town.
Seeing Uchiha Tunan arriving, Kakashi waved to him.
Uchiha Tunan ran up to Kakashi, pretending to be out of breath and asked: "How is the mission?"
"Failed." Kakashi shrugged indifferently.
Uchiha Tunan frowned and said:
"What's going on? Lord White Fang took action, how could it fail?"
Kakashi looked behind him, then lowered his voice and said:
"That guy was poisoned by Sunagakure Village. In order to save him, my father traded hostages for the antidote."
Uchiha Tunan suddenly realized:
"That's it~
Right.
After all, that man is the captain of the Root Army and is more important to Konoha than the hostage.
Anyway, if the hostages are handed over to Sunagakure Village, Sunagakure Village will safely deliver the hostages to their employer.
Konoha just lost a payment, so it wasn't a big problem. "
"That guy is quite conscientious. He said he would make up for us the reward for this mission when he returns to the village."
After Kakashi finished speaking, he pointed to a teahouse in the town behind him and said:
"Minato-sensei has arrived. You go and join them. I have to wait for the other two guys."
Uchiha Tunan smiled slightly and said:
"Thank you for your hard work. Why don't you let me wait? Your father failed in his mission, so you can go and comfort him."
Uchiha Tunan didn't want to meet the captain of the root force, lest he reveal his flaws when talking about the other two people.
Kakashi rolled his eyes and said, "It's no comfort, it's just an S-level mission."
Uchiha Tunan reached out and pushed Kakashi and said: "Go ahead, you and I are the same anyway."
Kakashi couldn't resist Uchiha Tunan, so he could only nod and said: "Okay."
Time passed little by little, and until noon, the two men from Genbu had not come yet.
Hatake Sakumo, Aburame Ryoma, Namikaze Minato and Kakashi all came to the intersection of the town.
Hatake Sakumo said solemnly: "They haven't come yet. They may have encountered the enemy. Let's divide into two teams to pick them up."
However, this idea was rejected by Aburame Ryoma without hesitation.
"No need, they haven't come yet and haven't used signal flares to call for help. They are probably dead."
"Go and have a look, just in case you are still alive." Namikaze Minato scratched his head and said.
Aburame Ryoma said expressionlessly:
"For this kind of mission that was explained in advance, no matter whether it was late or the signal flare was not released when there was danger.
These are already very serious crimes.
Even if they are not dead, they will be executed if they go back.
This is the fundamental rule. "
Hatake Sakumo sighed when he heard this, nodded and said: "Then don't wait any longer, let's go back to the village."
.......
In the Hokage Building, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the four people in front of him and smoked a cigarette quite boredly.
"White Fang, you are right. After all, Ryoma is your companion and the captain of the root army.
Whether it is for you or the village, it is much more important than an S-level mission.
You should go back and rest for a while. After all, the mission process is quite hard. "
After everyone left, Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't help but sigh when he looked at the large reward on the task list.
If he had known better, White Fang should have been left alone to carry out the mission.
Ten minutes later, we were at the root base camp.
Danzo looked at Aburame Ryoma, who was kneeling on one knee, with a gloomy face, and said coldly:
"Do you know how much effort I put into getting this mission opportunity?
But what about your results?
The hostages were handed over to Sunagakure Village because of you.
That kid's Sharingan failed.
Ichiki and Taro are also missing. "
Ryoma Aburame lowered her head and said coldly: "Danzo-sama, this mission is indeed my fault.
As for Ichiki and Taro, their subordinates suspected that they had exposed a flaw along the way.
It probably made Namikaze Minato suspicious. "
Danzo said with a chill in his eyes:
"You mean, these two losers were killed by Namikaze Minato."
Aburame Ryoma did not come to a definite conclusion, but spoke out another possibility.
"It could also be that Uchiha brat."
Danzo narrowed his eyes slightly, nodded and said: "This possibility cannot be ruled out.
As long as the adult Uchiha awakens the three magatama, he will basically have the strength of an elite jounin.
Although this kid is still young, he is already in the golden stage of development.
He was able to kill Ryousuke with a trap last time, and this time he might actually be able to defeat two Jonin alone.
But this possibility is a bit too small.
After all, I had already told Ichiki and Taro before they set off, asking them to pay attention to that kid's illusions. "
After Danzo finished speaking, he glanced at the robot-like Aburame Ryoma, gave up on punishing him, and sighed:
"Please step back first and we'll talk about this later."
"yes."
After Ryoma Aburame left, Danzo leaned on his seat and muttered to himself:
“Now Orochimaru’s experiments have completely stopped.
Gotta find a way to get a new Sharingan.
But no one from the Uchiha clan who owned the three magatama left the village.
Humph, the abominable evil clan..."
Everyone who returned to the village thought that the peace would return to the past.
But as a piece of news came from Kawa no Kuni, the entire Konoha was plunged into turmoil.
That day, Hiruzen Sarutobi came to the root base camp aggressively.
Danzo stood opposite Hiruzen Sarutobi and said indifferently: "Hiruzhan, why do you have time to come to my place?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen threw the scroll at Danzo's feet and said seriously:
"Look at this information for yourself. You need to give an explanation to the village."
Danzo frowned and opened the scroll.
Immediately, Danzo's pupils shrank suddenly.
"How...how could this happen?"
