Iruka looked at the surrounding ninjas and suddenly became panicked. He stood up from the stone and subconsciously protected Bai Yu behind him. He asked nervously: "What's going on?"
Bai Yu stood up quickly.
He opened his mouth and briefly explained what happened in the afternoon.
But he was meditating in his heart.
In order to temporarily avoid the limelight of this matter, he had not chosen to return to the Uchiha clan, but rushed to the Minagawa River area that only he and Naruto and Iruka knew.
Naruto and Iruka.
Naturally, it was impossible for them to turn against the Shimura clan and betray their whereabouts.
Then here comes the problem.
When exactly was he being followed?
After hearing the description, Iruka looked stunned and said, "You treat the beating of ten genin of the Shimura family, plus one chuunin, as a small matter???"
He was confused, what kind of genius student was this?
It's completely more outrageous than the stab-headed Sasuke!
"Teacher Iruka," Bai Yu sighed softly, "I swear, they were the ones who made the move first!"
Iruka was silent.
He wasn't there.
It’s hard to comment too much on this matter.
But it angered the Shimura clan.
He got into trouble after all.
Iruka looked around at the surrounding ninjas of the Shimura clan, protected Bai Yu, stepped closer to the edge of the stream, and said bluffingly: "Hey, we are all our own people, there is no need to make the relationship so ugly!"
The ninjas of the Shimura clan suddenly dispersed.
Make a way in the middle.
A tall and tall ninja wearing an ANBU gray vest and a fierce dark blue patterned mask walked out slowly and said indifferently:
"Leave that brat from the Uchiha clan to me for the time being. He beat a fellow village ninja and committed a taboo in the ninja village. As his teacher, you should know how serious the crime is."
Iruka's eyes trembled.
That mask.
It's the "root" and not the dark part.
"Root" is a special Konoha organization chartered by the Third Generation to serve only Shimura Danzo, one of Konoha's top leaders.
things done.
Even more shady than ANBU.
Therefore, it became the "Sword of Damocles" hanging over the heads of all ninjas in Konoha.
The organization adheres to the attitude of "I'd rather kill by mistake than let go" and is determined to eradicate all threats inside and outside the village.
Iruka suddenly realized something.
No wonder... the previous assessment.
The Anbu will target Bai Yu, an orphan of the Uchiha clan. In addition to acting as an executioner in the darker parts of Konoha, "Root" will also absorb outstanding orphans.
Bai Yu will be taken away by this person tonight.
The best outcome is to be beaten severely.
The worst result is to become an executioner who hides in the darkness and has his emotions wiped out!
The consequences could be disastrous! ! !
Bai Yu also noticed this detail and knew that the other party was not an ordinary ANBU.
He sighed.
As expected, he was targeted by Danzo, the "white glove of the third generation" and the "shit troubler of the ninja world".
If you think about the big picture.
This afternoon.
There is a high probability that it is also a game set by Gen.
No wonder I felt like I was being followed.
Iruka suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. With a scar across his nose, he raised his head confidently and said with a smile:
"Sorry, no one who comes today can take this child away from me."
Because of taking care of Bai Yu.
It was the Sandaime Hokage who gave him the order from Iruka. Unless the Hokage comes in person today, he must not hand Bai Yu over to anyone.
"teacher……"
Bai Yu looked at Iruka's back.
Although he had vaguely guessed it.
The other party's kindness to him was largely due to the tasks that the Hokage had given him after he had emerged, but he was still a little touched.
After all this kind of mission.
Even if it fails, the Sandaime will not hold him accountable.
"Stop talking and get ready to run away!"
As Iruka spoke, he took out two kunai from the ninja bag tied to his right leg, and handed one of them to Bai Yu behind him, standing ready with his eyes fixed on the front.
"You are blocking my organization from doing things. You must bear the consequences at your own risk..."
The root ninja spoke indifferently.
The words have not yet finished.
He had already leaned in front of Iruka and raised his knees quickly. In the dark, the speed was almost too fast for anyone to see clearly.
boom--
When Iruka was still thinking about how to respond to the enemy, the face of a root tissue ninja appeared in front of him, and then there was severe pain in his abdomen, and his pupils popped out. In just a moment, his whole body was like a cooked shrimp, and he bent over and fell to the ground, with his mouth Coughing up blood.
Bai Yu couldn't help but take half a step back.
Wow——
Ninja boots stepped on the cold stream.
Immediately.
Bai Yu gritted his teeth, rushed forward, helped Iruka up from the ground, and quickly stepped back, glaring at this terrifying and unfathomable Root Organization ninja.
Just this one blow.
You can judge.
This root-organized ninja was definitely a jounin, and his physical skills were almost the same as Itachi's full-strength strike when he wasn't releasing his water.
Bai Yu couldn't see the attack trajectory at all.
The strength gap between the two sides is too large.
Even if one magatama sharingan is turned on.
You may not be able to see clearly.
"Are you going to follow me on your own, or are you going to force me to do it?" The Root Organization ninja retracted his hand, wrapped his hands around his chest, and continued to say indifferently: "I'll give you three seconds to think about it."
His tall body stood in the dark night.
Full of oppression.
"I'll go with you!" Bai Yu breathed a sigh of relief and placed Iruka gently on the ground. He had no choice.
Iruka endured the pain.
He reached out and grabbed Bai Yu's ankle.
Bai Yu squatted down.
He untied Iruka's palm and said helplessly: "Iruka-sensei, thank you."
Iruka clutched his abdomen, looking unwilling.
He knew that even if he claimed the name of Hokage, this Root Organization ninja would still take Bai Yu away.
Iruka lay on the ground, gritted his teeth and said, "Don't go to that place. It's not your destination. You lack care and should be illuminated by the fire of Konoha to grow up!"
Bai Yu lowered his head helplessly.
The situation is now desperate.
In the dark night, Konoha's fire is insignificant.
Since he has been targeted by Danzo for a long time, this troublemaker will find a way to catch him no matter what.
Instead of running away.
Better to face it.
"Don't worry," the Root Organization ninja said coldly: "We will give him more ninja care!"
"Cut the nonsense and let's go!"
Bai Yu spoke angrily.
"In order to make you more honest on the road, please endure the pain. Don't worry, it's only for a moment!"
The root organization ninja suddenly flashed in front of Bai Yu.
Just as he was accumulating strength, he aimed a powerful uppercut at the young man's abdomen.
blow--
Under the moonlight, a shuriken with cold light and incomparable precision pierced the night sky silently.
Shot from the side of the two of them.
The root organization ninja smells a crisis.
Quickly pull back.
Bai Yu suddenly turned his face to the side, staring ahead and spinning in parallel, shooting the shuriken that disappeared a few millimeters from the tip of his nose.
I was amazed by this superb throwing technique.
suddenly.
The sound of light footsteps on the water resounded in the river.
A ninja wearing the costume of the Uchiha clan, with scarlet eyes and three magatama activated, turned into a black shadow and flashed out. The moment he passed by Bai Yu, he gave him a slightly disgusted look.
"Uchiha Inari?"
Bai Yu saw the ninja's face clearly and was shocked.
In the blink of an eye.
Dao Huo bullies himself to the root organization ninja.
Bang——ding——
Iron collision.
Sparks flew.
The two used taijutsu and kunai to fight dozens of moves close to each other.
Inabi always had the upper hand thanks to the powerful insight granted by the Sharingan.
In the second round of the encounter.
Inaka caught the opponent's mistake and kicked the Root Organization ninja back a hundred meters. He didn't stop retreating until the opponent pulled out his ninja sword and thrust it into the ground.
at this time.
Crash--
Hundreds of Uchiha ninjas wearing dark blue robes with red and white Uchiwa fans printed on the back, holding torches, came from the stream.
Their eyes were cold and they glared at the Shimura clan ninjas who surrounded Bai Yu and Iruka. They formed a larger counter-encirclement circle in an orderly manner and surrounded these foreign ninjas.
In the dark forest.
Uchiha Itachi wears clan uniform and carries a ninja sword on his back.
His face was cold.
Come out of the dark woods.
Walking out side by side.
There was also a boy who was playing with a shuriken in his hand, had short black hair, wore a Konoha forehead protector, had a ball nose, thick eyebrows and big eyes, was smiling, holding a ninja sword, and was wearing Uchiha uniform.
Bai Yu stared in the direction of the woods.
The boy following Itachi.
It was "Uchiha Shisui"!
