Konoha Thief

Chapter 249 Sarutobi Sun Slash
In a secluded alley, an Anbe ninja wearing a windbreaker and a bird face mask came out in an instant and came behind Natsuki.

The Anbu ninja in the bird face mask didn't speak, maybe he didn't know what to say, the original tracking was directly pierced by the other party, he was still a little dazed at the moment, he didn't know where he showed his flaws.

"Do you need me to cooperate with the investigation?" Xia Shu raised his hands to signal his harmlessness without looking back.

The Anbe ninja in the bird face mask remained silent.

Xia Shu suddenly understood, and said with a smile: "It seems that there is nothing wrong with me, shall I report it to you?"

"Yeah." The Anbu ninja with the bird face mask is a novice, after hearing this suggestion, he thought about it and agreed.

Following the Anbu ninja with a bird face mask, Natsuki came to a residential house. This is not an entrance to Anbu's base. Natsuki was just a little suspicious. In fact, Anbu had no evidence, so this is just a vacant residential house. At this moment, it is used as an interrogation room.

The Anbu ninja in the bird face mask avoids Natsuki, uses Anbu's special method to send a message, and then falls into silence.

It didn't take long before there was a knock on the door of the residential house. It seemed like an ordinary knock on the door, but in fact, Anbu's password was hidden.

After confirming that it was correct, the Anbu ninja with the bird face mask opened the door, and three figures rushed in one after another.

"It's you?" Before Natsuki could speak, one of the three new Anbe ninjas suddenly said.

"Oh? You know me?" Xia Shu looked at him curiously, but he had no impression.

The Anbu ninja with the cat face mask did not answer, whispered a few words to the Anbe ninja beside him, and then walked forward.

"Name." The cat-faced Anbu ninja said coldly.

Another Anbu ninja said something to the Anbu ninja in the bird face mask, and the latter nodded and left, obviously there was still something to do.

Xia Shu was not sure whether the other party would go back to carry out the mission or report to Anbu, which made him frown slightly.

If he didn't want to avoid conflicts between Anbu and Genbu, he wouldn't have called out the Anbu ninja with the bird face mask, and Anbu's identity as a Genbu ninja would definitely be found out if Anbu checked later, and he didn't want to cause trouble.

"Name!" the cat masked Anbu ninja repeated coldly, knocking on the table.

"Matsuzaki Natsuki." Natsuki glanced at the other party, but still couldn't remember when he met him, but if he recalled the contact with Anbu, it would only be the time when Yu Yin moved.

"level."

"Specially for tolerance."

"Belongs."

"root."

The previous answer is already very surprising. After all, Xia Shu is only 13 years old, but he is already very ninja, but the atmosphere in the other room is stagnant, which is obviously the last answer.

The "root" of Konoha is a training camp that all Anbu ninjas will go through, but for Anbe ninjas who have access to more secrets, they can know more information.

So when they heard this answer, the three Anbu ninjas became more serious.

"What's the purpose of approaching Uzumaki Kushina?" the Anbu ninja with the cat face mask then asked.

"Practice sealing technique." Xia Shu replied.

No matter what the bird-face mask Anbu ninja was doing, at this moment he can only answer truthfully.

Just as he was thinking this, the Anbu ninja with the bird face mask went back and brought back the order.

Seeing the other party whispering to the Anbu ninja, Natsuki narrowed his eyes, thinking about how to deal with various situations.

After whispering, the three Anbe ninjas left directly, and the Anbe ninja with the bird face mask came over and said, "Matsuzaki Jominin, Hokage-sama wants to see you."

Xia Shu raised his eyebrows in surprise, but he didn't expect such a development, but after thinking about it, he figured it out clearly.

Although Hiruzaru Sarutobi has the title of "Ninoha", he is an honest and nostalgic person. He has never regarded his best friend Shimura Danzo as a threat, but is an assistant to protect the big tree of Konoha.

The current relationship between the two parties has not reached the level it will be in the future, so no matter whether Natsuki's purpose of approaching Uzumaki Kushina is pure or not, and whether there are other purposes besides asking about the sealing technique, Hiruzaru Sarutobi is not willing to have a relationship with Nebu or Shimura Dan. Hide the conflict.

As for the third generation wanting him, it may be because of Maruyoshi Kosuke.

Arriving at the Hokage building and entering the Hokage office, the Anbe ninja with the bird face mask stepped back and closed the door behind him.

"Master Hokage." Xia Shu said respectfully.

"Wait a minute." Hiruzaru Sarutobi buried his head in the pile of documents and waved his hand.

Xia Shu waited quietly, his eyes swept away out of boredom. Hokage's office is relatively spacious, and there are not many decorations. There are only three portraits of Hokage in the past on the wall. After a few years, the head of Namikaze Minato will also Will hang up, then Tsunade, well, maybe.

Green smoke lingers behind the desk, smoke from burning tobacco floats in, and Xia Shu raises his hand to disperse it.

Regardless of his previous life or this life, he never smoked, so naturally he couldn't get used to the smell.

About a quarter of an hour later, Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up and stretched comfortably.

"Master Hokage." Xia Shu hurriedly saluted.

"It's Matsuzaki, right?" Hiruzaru Sarutobi knocked on the pipe, knocked all the embers in the pipe into the trash can, then opened the drawer to take out the tobacco, filled the pipe and said with a smile: "Kusuke is still with me He boasted about his apprentice, saying that he is a young man with rare talent in swordsmanship, now it seems that he is indeed so."

He has a gentle temperament, which is different from the kindness of Maruho Kosuke, with a kind of praise and trust, and a convincing charm.

Although Natsuki felt that his master Maruhoshi Kosuke was not the one who would show off and praise Hiruzaru Sarutobi, he couldn't refute this kind of close relationship, especially when it was said from Hokage. of.

"It's all taught by the master." Xia Shu said humbly.

"Hehe! Being too modest can appear insincere." Hiruzaru Sarutobi joked with a smile.

Xia Shu laughed and didn't say much.

"How is it at the root of Danzo? Are you still used to it?" Hiruzaru Sarutobi asked casually, puffing out again.

"It's okay." Xia Shu seemed unable to hear the hidden meaning, and said: "Although it is tiring and dangerous to go out to perform tasks, as long as you return to Konoha, you can completely relax, and you will get used to it after a long time."

"That's good." Hiruzaru Sarutobi smiled with satisfaction: "Originally, I promised Kosuke Maruhoshi that I would transfer you to Anbe after you finished training, but because of the shortage of manpower in the root department, I kept you in Anbe. There, now it seems that this is not a bad thing."

"As a Konoha ninja, no matter where I am, I want to protect the village." Xia Shu said seriously: "My parents sacrificed for this, and I will inherit their mission!"
