Naruto: The Masked Witch

The border blockade of the Kingdom of Thunder has had a great impact.

The other four major countries have dispatched elite Anbu to inquire about information, hoping to obtain information about the Kingdom of Thunder.

Because the country of Lei's sudden lock-down is really too strange, as if there is a black hand behind the scenes who is constantly fueling the flames.

The other three major kingdoms of wind, water, and earth sent less Anbu because they didn't pay enough attention to it. After all, only their leaders know the title of witch.

As for Konoha Village in the Land of Fire, Hiruza Sarutobi hesitated for a long time, and dispatched a squad of secret teams to the Land of Thunder to inquire about information. The number of people in a squad was quite large, with a total of 17 people.

You must know that Anbu usually hides in the dark to protect Hokage. There is only one squad, and the entire Anbu has only 70 people, all of whom are the best of the best, and one squad is equal to a quarter of Anbu.

After sending these Anbu out, Hiruzaru Sarutobi was a little hesitant again. He didn't know whether his decision was right or wrong. Needless to say, if he was right, he successfully obtained information and then retreated unscathed.

If it is wrong, then even the information will not be obtained, and a quarter of Anbu will be ruined.

After all, Sarutobi Hiruzen is old and no longer has the demeanor of ninja when he was young. As Shimura Danzo said, Sarutobi is too indecisive now, and he is no longer a qualified Hokage.

While silently puffing out the smoke, Yuan Fei, who lowered his eyes in thought, suddenly noticed a flash of breath by the window.

At first, I was at a loss, why did Anbu not warn when someone sneaked into the Hokage Building?

The next moment, Sarutobi laughed at himself again, Zilai also just returned to the village in the past two days, and Zilai has always been doing this, he will not go through the main entrance, he will only open the window.

Sure enough, the next moment Sarutobi heard Jiraiya's yelling.

"Old man, I heard that you sent a squad of Anbu to the Land of Thunder to obtain information?"

Hiruza Sarutobi nodded, looked at Jiraiya quietly, and said, "That's right, the sudden lock-down of the Kingdom of Thunder is too strange, combined with the information obtained by Yamato on the battlefield, if there is no mistake, Raikage may Already fought to the death."

Jiraiya's pupils shrank suddenly, and his voice was a little dry: "Raikage died in battle? That's the strong man who bears the name of Kage!"

Unlike the third-generation Hokage who is already getting old, the fourth-generation Raikage is now in his prime, and his body chakra is in a peak state, and the past generations of Raikage are all specialized in ninjutsu. The strength of the body even some weapons Neither can be pierced.

Sarutobi took a dull puff of tobacco, and continued: "Also, according to the information obtained from all parties, Kirabi, also known as Eight-tailed Jinchuriki, also fought with the witch and died in battle, but the strange thing is that Kirabi's follow-up Appeared in the Land of Thunder, as for other news, there is no more."

Sarutobi still doesn't know that the Witch Sect has become the state religion of the Kingdom of Thunder. Half of the people in the Kingdom of Thunder believe in witches, and this trend is also radiating to the surrounding small countries.

"Old man, I will also go to the Land of Thunder!" Zilai also quickly made up his mind and decided to go to the Land of Thunder in person.

"No, that's too dangerous!" Sarutobi Hiruzen resolutely refused.

"Old man, if there is nothing wrong with the news I got, the mission of Anbu to the Land of Thunder to obtain information this time is the team led by Shinnosuke, right?"

Jiraiya stared at Sarutobi Hiruzen and said.

Shinnosuke's full name is Sarutobi Shinnosuke. He is the eldest son of Sarutobi Hiruzen and also the head of Anbe. Because of Anbu's secrecy, many people don't know that Sarutobi Hiruzen has an eldest son.

"Yes." Facing the facts, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't deny it.

Jilai also thought about it, and decided to persuade this stubborn old man from another angle.

"Old man, you also know that I signed a psychic contract with Miaomushan, and this time I learned from Immortal Toad that an unprecedented crisis of annihilation will erupt in the ninja world, and I guess that the root cause is emerging recently. Among the Witch Sect!"

"Moreover, the sudden blockade of the Kingdom of Thunder this time, and Kirabi's resurrection, the behind-the-scenes manipulator is very likely to be the Witch Sect!"

Although Jiraiya usually seems very dishonest and forgetful most of the time, but when he is serious, Jiraiya is undoubtedly a qualified ninja.

Seeing that Hiruzaru Sarutobi was still hesitating, Jiraiya also took a deep breath, and said word by word: "Old man, if I go, I can [-]% pass the news back, and I can also help Shinnosuke, or say Don't you believe in my talent as a ninja, old man?"

Seeing that Jiraiya had already talked about this, Hiruzaru Sarutobi nodded helplessly, "Go, this time everything is based on your safety, and the information will be left behind!"

Seeing Hiruzaru Sarutobi say such words, Jiraiya also took a deep look at Hiruzaru Sarutobi, and said confidently: "Old man, do you know? You in your old age and you in your prime are simply two people!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi would never have said such a thing in the past. You must know that ninjas are mission-oriented, and no matter what, they must give priority to ensuring the completion of the mission.

For example, Hatake Sumao, who died more than ten years ago, was because he chose the latter between the mission and his companions, which led to the failure of the mission. The sudden defection of that companion...

Sushige Hatake died and committed suicide at home. There may be unknown political games involved in this, but we can also know from the side what the mainstream ethos of ninjas is like.

Facing Jiraiya's words, Hiruza Sarutobi was silent for a while, and then explained palely: "Everyone is subject to change."

"I wish Sakumo would rise at this time." Jiraiya sneered at Hiruza Sarutobi, and then left the Hokage Building without looking back.

"Sakumo..." Sarutobi's eyes were full of reminiscence, and he remembered that Konoha Baiya who had a half of the Hokage sleeve tied to his left arm and killed everyone with a short white tooth knife.

Hatake Sakumo's death, although Hiruzaru Sarutobi was not directly responsible for the death, it is obvious that Hiruzaru Sarutobi could stand up and speak out to save Shirato Konoha, but he chose to sit and watch.

"Actually, I don't want to, but I didn't expect Sakumo to be so strong. Did he commit suicide to show me?" Hiruzaru Sarutobi closed his eyes in pain.

……

"Shinnosuke, I will act with you next."

At the border of the Land of Fire, Jiraiya finally caught up with Shinnosuke and the others who set off early.

"Father... Hokage agreed?" Shinnosuke looked at Jiraiya and said.

"Of course, with me here, the task can be completed better, what's the old man's objection?" Ji Lai also laughed heartily.
