Guard members who stay in Konoha

Chapter 102 99, the choice without regret
When receiving this task, Hatake Sakumo understood the troublesome part of this task, and only took five people to sneak into his country, and looked for an opportunity to assassinate the monarch of a country. After the assassination, he had to leave quickly without letting the other party notice Even a master like him would feel a headache for his status as a waiter.

Especially according to the information collected by Anbu, in order to ensure the smooth progress of the alliance, Taki no Kuni daimyo is surrounded by strong people from Takigakure Ninja Village, Iwagakure Ninja Village, and the protectors of Tunokuni Ninja Temple. Sign a covenant to protect its safety.

Hatake Sakumo knew that Takigakure Ninja Village was the only ninja village with tailed beasts outside of the Five Great Nations, so in the worst case, Jinchuriki might appear beside Taki no Ninja Daimyo as a guard.In fact, this ominous premonition was fulfilled, and Jinchuriki was indeed by Daimyo's side.

Renzhuli are a group of monsters, even incomplete Renzhuli are the same, as long as they can grow normally, they will become a powerful force that cannot be underestimated.

Although Iwagakure Ninja Village will not invest too much protection force for the monarch of a country, and Takigakure Ninja Village itself has no particularly strong people other than Jinchuriki, but in the face of such a protection lineup, Hatake Sakumo is also getting stronger and stronger. feel stressed.

However, as "Konoha White Fang", Hatake Sakumo, who even fears the Sannin, will not be completely helpless. After many investigations and planning, Hatake Sakumo finally found an opportunity.After the plan was launched, he was only one step away from the daimyo of the country of Taki, and he only needed to take another step, and he could take the life of the daimyo of the country of Taki.

As in the past, Hatake Sakumo completed the task bravely, returned with honor, and received applause and respect from everyone, yes, it should have been like this——

As long as Hatake Sakumo can make a decision, a decision that goes against his own heart, as long as he can give up one of his subordinates who was in crisis at that time.

Even though it was Sakumo Hatake, he couldn't take into account all the situations. Unexpected situations could appear at any time. The enemy's strength and luck were beyond ordinary. A subordinate who was not expected to be under too much pressure was facing death situation.

No one else has the strength to help, only Sakumo Hatake has this ability, but he is only one step away from completing this task.

At that moment, Hatake Sakumo had countless thoughts in his mind, almost subconsciously, he instinctively gave up on the startled daimyo, and went to help his companion to get him out of danger.

Hatake Sakumo originally wanted to get rid of the daimyo again, but sometimes, the opportunity comes only once, and after that, the guards gathered around the daimyo of Taki no country, especially the sudden burst of jinchuriki, which made him no longer have that chance .

After that, he fled in embarrassment. Hatake Sakumo led the others to flee away immediately, and the distraught Daimyo of Taki no Kuni ordered to pursue him until now.

The ninja dogs sent by Sakumo Hatake haven't sent any danger signal yet, and they still have plenty of rest time, and they should leave the border quickly after recovering a certain amount of physical strength.Although the border of Taki Country should be under martial law now, there are only six of them, and they are ninjas with outstanding skills. It is very troublesome to stop them.

However, Hatake Sakumo couldn't help feeling dizzy when he thought of the situation he might face when he returned to the village.At this moment, he suddenly remembered the conversation he had with Tan in the past. At that time, Tan seemed to have foreseen such a situation, and asked himself what should he do if his companions were in crisis during the mission?
And Hatake Sakumo's answer is that he will help his companions, because saving his companions will give him more strength to complete the task.

Then, I asked another question, what should I do if going to help my companions will cause the mission to fail?And Hatake Sakumo replied that he could only do his best, and when he rescued his companions, he would see if he could save the situation.

Yes, that was Sakumo Hatake's answer at the time, and now Sakumo Hatake has never changed his mind, so at that moment of lightning, Sakumo Hatake gave up the daimyo who was close at hand and chose to save him. own subordinates.

In the missions performed in the past, it was not the first time that Hatake Sakumo faced such a situation, but he relied on his own strength to save it. He not only helped his companions, but also completed the mission, and his reputation was not shaken in the slightest.But now, Hatake Sakumo thought, if he often walks on the shore, his shoes will get wet sooner or later, and his luck seems to have come to an end here.

Hatake Sakumo understands that this approach cannot be so smooth every time. The failure this time is unexpected, but it seems reasonable.Although aware of the risks, Hatake Sakumo did not regret it, but stubbornly took this approach, even now.

The reason is just like what he said to Tan: "...Maybe it is, I am such a person."

The failure of the mission now is to settle down, no matter what, it is impossible for Hatake Sakumo to assassinate smoothly, so there is only one way he can do now, and that is to take his subordinates back.

Now that he had already paid the price of mission failure, it was impossible for him to give up his subordinates, especially the subordinate who was in crisis and rescued by himself.

Hatake Sakumo turned around, looked at the person receiving treatment, and said nothing, if he were to die here, his efforts would be worthless.

Therefore, he must bring the other party back safely, which can be regarded as a little comfort to himself.

"However, it's just a trace..." Hatake Sakumo thought silently, "What kind of expression will Hokage-sama have when we return to the village? What will other people say? After that, what should I do? Woolen cloth?"

As determined as Sakumo Hatakeki, he also seemed upset at this moment. He quickly shook his head and left these things behind. This is not the most important situation at present. The most important thing now is to leave this country and return safely. Go to Konoha Ninja Village.

"Sakumo, there are other people's scents coming nearby, and there are quite a few!" At this moment, a ninja dog ran wildly and shouted at Hatake Sakumo.

The expressions of the others became tense, and Sakumo Hatake's face was tense, and he held his dagger tightly, saying, "Thank you. Everyone, we should go now. Everyone must return to the village."

Hearing this sentence, the other five people looked at Sakumo Hatake with blank and complicated expressions. They didn't say anything, but silently followed Sakumo Hatake's pace.

Hatake Sakumo sighed slightly in his heart. The situation he might face in the village has already begun to take shape. Even if he doesn't want to regret it, his heart still feels throbbing.

Hatake Sakumo shook his head, and immediately led the crowd to run along the predetermined route, keeping the distance from the pursuers.And the pursuers who found the trace also hurried to catch up, intending to kill these daring assassins.

After chasing and fleeing again and again, Hatake Sakumo finally took everyone out of the border of the country of Taki, and after arriving at the country of fire, their safety was greatly improved, with the help of the rest of the Konoha ninjas Collision.

After a while, Hatake Sakumo and others appeared at the gate of Konoha Ninja Village. They just breathed a sigh of relief when they saw some people appearing in front of them.

Dressed in sharp clothes, exuding a cold breath, and wearing animal pattern masks on their faces... These people are Anbu, who belong to the elite troops directly under Hokage, and act according to Hokage's orders.

"Your Excellency White Fang, Hokage-sama wants to see you." said the leader, Anbu.

Hatake Sakumo had expected this a long time ago. After entering the Land of Fire, there was news of himself and others, and they should have been sent to Hokage-sama before arriving at the village.

"I understand, everyone else needs healing, please help arrange it." Hatake Sakumo replied quietly.

"Understood. Your Excellency Bai Fang." The leader of Anbu replied indifferently. Although he did not understand the whole situation, he could see that Hatake Sakumo made a serious mistake. For this famous village expert, his I was generally respectful in my heart, but I didn't know what to say at the moment.

Hatake Sakumo glanced at his subordinates, with a guilty expression on his face: "This time, I'm really sorry for you all. All the responsibilities are mine alone. You should take care of your wounds."

After speaking, Hatake Sakumo followed Anbe's people to meet Hokage-sama.
