In Konoha, my ninja cat is invincible!

The ANBU ninja became anxious.

However, after searching the nearby area, nothing was found.

As a last resort, the ANBU ninja could only convey the news back to Konoha.

An ANBU ninja entered the Hokage's office.

"Hokage-sama."

"What's wrong?"

At this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen had no idea what was happening.

"Hokage-sama, something may have happened with Shinnosuke-sama!"

"What?"

Immediately, Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up.

"what's the situation?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen asked quickly.

"Back to Hokage-sama, when the tanuki went to the predetermined location to pick up Shinnosuke-sama, he did not find Shinnosuke-sama who was supposed to arrive."

"After realizing that something was wrong, the tanuki searched the surrounding area and followed the route that Shinnosuke-sama came from. However, he found nothing. Shinnosuke-sama and others seemed to have disappeared out of thin air."

"Not even a trace."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression turned ugly.

A bad premonition arose in Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart.

Sarutobi Shinnosuke is Hiruzen Sarutobi's favorite son.

At the same time, it is also the most important part of the Sarutobi Hiruzen family plan.

Now suddenly disappeared.

There is a high probability that something unexpected happened.

This was not the result Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to see.

He hesitated for a moment.

"Get Kakashi over here."

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

The ANBU ninja left.

Sarutobi Hiruzen quickly thought and analyzed.

"Only a very few people know about Shinnosuke's return to Konoha. I, Shinnosuke, the monkey demon clan, and the rest are the ANBU. I, the monkey demon clan, will never betray Shinnosuke."

"Is there a traitor among the ANBU ninjas?"

"Who could it be?"

"Who is the person behind the scenes?"

One by one, names passed through Sarutobi Hiruzen's mind.

"Other ninja villages?"

After the comprehensive strength of Kumoyin Village was stronger than that of Konoha, it often provoked Konoha. A very typical example was the incident of Hyuga Hizashi, which was regarded as a shame by the entire Hyuga clan.

Sunagakure Village is now in an alliance with Konoha, but there have been great conflicts between the two ninja villages.

Iwagakure Village has constant friction with Konoha.

Kirigakure Village also had reasons to attack Konoha. The spies exposed last time were from Kirigakure Village. Sarutobi Hiruzen felt that there was a possibility for Kirigakure Village to avenge those people.

After thinking about the situation outside the village, Hiruzen Sarutobi thought about the situation inside the village.

"Uchiha Fugaku?"

"It's not impossible. Uchiha Fugaku's disappearance was very sudden. Until now, no clues or traces have been exposed. It's like disappearing out of thin air."

"besides……"

Sarutobi Hiruzen narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Could it be you?"

At present, Sarutobi Hiruzen can basically conclude that the information must have been leaked by ANBU ninjas.

The ANBU ninjas have a great connection with the roots.

The Roots were originally created by Danzo in order to cultivate talents for the ANBU, but later, as time went by, the Roots gradually changed and became Danzo's power.

"I hope Shinnosuke is okay."

"Otherwise, no matter who it is, I will make you pay the price!"

"Ten times the price!"

Compared to ANBU ninjas, Kurapika and Violet returned to Konoha a little slower.

After all, I brought a tow bottle.

Instead of entering Konoha directly, he first placed the child in the underground village where Kagero was.

After that, he returned to the village.

"grown ups."

The two cats came to Shiraishi and made a report.

"Kurapika, Violet, thank you for your hard work."

"How's it going?"

Kurapika looked at Violet.

In terms of strength, Kurapika is above Violet. However, in this operation, basically not much strength was used, and more of Violet's ability was used.

"Return to my lord."

Violet took a small step forward.

"We saw Sarutobi Shinnosuke in the forest near Sandstone City. There were three of them."

"A middle-aged man, like their guard."

"A woman, like Sarutobi Shinnosuke's wife, has a swollen belly and is pregnant."

"They were already being attacked by the time we saw them."

"many people."

"There are dozens of them."

"The middle-aged guard was killed first, and then Sarutobi Shinnosuke. The two bought the woman a certain amount of time, but they didn't buy much."

"Just at this time, the woman gave birth again."

"After giving birth, he hid the child in a cave, while he lured others away."

"He was also killed later."

Shiraishi showed a rather surprised expression.

Shiraishi was not surprised by the death of Sarutobi Shinnosuke, it was expected.

What surprised Shiraishi was the way Konohamaru was born.

Shiraishi has some respect for women.

It is remarkable that a woman can do this for the sake of her children.

Compared with someone like Uzumaki Kushina, who had just given birth and was extremely weak, but still had a strong heart and used the King Kong Blockade against Kyuubi, she was no less generous.

"Have you made the arrangement to blame Danzo?"

"It's done as you asked."

Kurapika answered.

Shiraishi nodded.

With this matter completed, Shiraishi was satisfied. The most important thing to send out Kurapika and Violet was to blame Danzo for the death of Sarutobi Shinnosuke.

Let conflict break out between Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo.

In this case, Uchiha would have hope of rising in Konoha.

Only then can there be hope for stability.

Only then can you not place your own safety on others.

"Sir, we brought that child back."

"Bring it back?"

Shiraishi was stunned for a moment.

"Because we didn't know how to deal with it, we brought it back and now we put it with Yang Yan. Violet and I both think it's up to you to decide."

Shiraishi looked at Kurapika and Violet.

The ninja cat Kurapika and the ninja cat Violet both inherited some of the characteristics of the responder.

Kurapika and Violet are both very kind people deep down.

So after seeing Konohamaru's situation.

Even if he knew that the relationship between Shiraishi and the Sarutobi clan was not harmonious.

But he couldn't just watch Konohamaru starve to death, or be discovered, killed, and eaten by wild beasts, so he brought Konohamaru back.

Moreover, I think Konohamaru might be useful to Shiraishi.

"let me see."

"You guys should rest first. It's been a hard journey. I'll ask the young master to cook you something delicious later."
