Fire country.

Konoha Hidden Village.

Naruto Office.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the disciple in front of him and said nothing for a long time. He just smoked his pipe and soon the whole office became filled with smoke.

After a long time, he let out a long sigh and said, "Hey~, Jiraiya, where are you really going?"

Standing in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen was Jiraiya who had just returned from Mt. Myoboku.

At this time, Jiraiya changed his usual casual attitude and replied seriously: "Old man, this is the prophecy of the Great Toad Immortal. I must go there."

There was another moment of silence, and after a moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up and said, "In that case, come with me."

After that, he walked out the door minding his own business.

Although Jiraiya didn't understand why, he still followed.

Soon, the two came to a dark secret room.

Looking at the torture instruments around him and the ninja in the middle with his eyes closed and a look of pain on his face, Jiraiya frowned and said, "Old man, why did you bring me here?"

No wonder Jiraiya asked this. Although he was a ninja, he really didn't like the dark side of the ninja world, so he basically never came to the torture department. Now he was suddenly brought here by Sarutobi Hiruzen. Naturally, Full of doubts.

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not answer his question. He just turned to the side and asked the ninja wearing a black windbreaker and a ninja hat with scars on his face: "How is it, Ibiki, hasn't he spoken yet?" ?”

This person is none other than the captain of the Konoha Torture Department - Morino Ihiki. He is very good at dismantling the enemy's psychological defenses and manipulating the enemy's mental state. Most people can only ask and answer whatever they want after a few rounds in his hands, but now , but he looked tired.

After the torture room was released, Morino Ihiki shook his head and said: "Everything else has been explained, but he refused to reveal the information about that person."

"Where is Haiichi's secret mind-reading technique?" Sarutobi Hiruzen asked.

"The opponent's spirit is protected by something similar to a sealing technique, and the secret technique of the Yamanaka clan cannot be read." Morino Ihiki replied.

After a moment of silence, Hiruzen Sarutobi said, "Let's go see the other people."

"Yes, Third Generation-sama, this way."

After Morino responded happily, she made a gesture of invitation.

Soon, a group of people left the secret room and came to a dark corridor. After walking forward for a while, Morino Ihiki pointed to a room on the left and said: "One of them is locked in there."

Standing in front of the door, through the observation window, Jiraiya saw an ordinary-looking ninja. At this time, the other person was sitting quietly on the ground, with his hands and feet shackled. There was nothing unusual about him.

Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Jiraiya followed Morino Ihiki and Sarutobi Hiruzen to look at the other four cells. In other words, there were a total of five ninjas like this locked here.

After seeing all the prisoners, Hiruzen Sarutobi found a place similar to a conference room, and then asked carefully: "Should all the five people have spoken just now?"

"Yes, sir." Morino Ibixi replied, "But..."

"But what?" Sarutobi Hiruzen asked.

Morino Ibixi replied: "However, their knowledge is really limited.

According to what these five people said, they were originally just wandering ninjas. Just over half a month ago, they were inexplicably caught by Ishiichi Iwai, the guy who hadn't spoken yet.

Afterwards, Ishiichi controlled these people with poison and asked them to exchange fresh corpses for the antidote. "

"Corpse?" Jiraiya asked confused.

Morino Ihiki glanced at Jiraiya and continued: "Yes, it's a corpse. Lord Thirdai, Lord Jiraiya, please look at this."

As he spoke, he took out a shining silver ring. If you look closely, you can find the word "six" engraved inside.

Sarutobi Hiruzen took the ring and asked, "What is this?"

"This was found from Ishiichi Iwai." Morino Ihiki replied, "Sir, please use your mental power to try to control it."

Hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi tentatively input his mental power, and suddenly a gray space appeared in his mind. He couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Space warehouse?"

"Yes, after testing, this ring does have a space of one hundred cubic meters." Morino Ibixi replied.

Hearing Morino Ihiki's affirmative answer, Sarutobi Hiruzen was speechless for a long time. Although Konoha also has similar technology, it requires a ninja with some space talent to do it, and it is also very inconvenient to apply, unlike this ring. , so convenient?

In just a moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen thought of many ways to apply this technology. If done well, it might be able to take Konoha's war potential to a new level.

However, he soon calmed down. Not to mention that the technology to make the ring was not yet available. Even if the technology was available, they might not be able to make it. What's more, the ring itself already showed that the man was extraordinary.

After calming down and thinking for a moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen continued: "Ibiki, take out this ring. Could it be that Ishiichi Iwai is using it to transport corpses?"

"That's right, sir, when we first caught each other, there were dozens of corpses in the ring." Morino Ibixi replied.

Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen tapped the table lightly, thought for a while, and then continued: "What about Ishiichi Iwai? Since you all know his name, you should have collected some information. Let's talk about it. ."

"Yes, Lord Sandaime. In fact, we didn't know his name originally. It's just that the other party's mysterious whereabouts in the Country of Grass were accidentally noticed by the ANBU, and then he was captured. The name Iwai Ishiichi was also revealed by him later. Those five people just called him No. 6."

"number 6?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen turned over the ring in his hand and looked at the word "six" engraved on the inside.

Seeing the movements of Sarutobi Hiruzen, Morino Ibi said happily: "I believe you have some guesses, sir. There is definitely more than one person like this in the ninja world.

The ANBU has found out that Ishiichi Iwai was once a jounin of Iwagakure Village, but he lost all news not long ago. However, there are many missing ninjas like this in the ninja world, and no one knows how many of them are fighting for that. Human effectiveness? "

Hearing this, Jiraiya finally spoke: "We must not let the other party continue to develop like this unscrupulously. We must take measures to deal with it as soon as possible."

Sarutobi Hiruzen knew what his disciple meant, and after pondering for a while, he said: "Originally, I wanted to see if I could get some information from Iwai Ishiichi, but now it seems there is no hope.

This mission is too dangerous. I will send three more ANBU teams to assist you. Remember, your mission is only reconnaissance. "

"Don't worry, old man, I won't die that easily!"

After that, Jiraiya stood up and left. He had to make final preparations.
