Travel through Konoha and open treasure chests

The ANBU's expression was obviously a little nervous. The reputation of the Bloody Mist in Kirigakure Village spread far and wide throughout the ninja world. Even among the ANBU, few people wanted to deal with that group of lunatics. .

Once caught by the people of Kirigakure Village, even dying easily is a luxury.

Kakashi and Sarutobi Shinnosuke looked at each other, coughed, and said, "That ANBU team has lost contact, so someone must take over the intelligence collection work they did in Kirigakure. And... although we can't contact you for the time being. , but the members of that team may still be alive, and if that's the case, we must find a way to rescue them.

On the contrary, even if they have all died, the cause of their death must be investigated clearly. "

Obviously, the latter sentence is the key point.

The possibility that the missing ANBU were still alive was very slim.

Missing within the sphere of influence of Kirigakure Village is basically equivalent to death. However, the missing ninjas are all elite members of the second team. If there is no traitor who leaks their information, then it is impossible to eliminate them silently. Very difficult. And if Kirigakure sends a large number of ninjas to hunt them down, several other spies stationed in the Kingdom of Water should be able to receive the news.

All kinds of anomalies indicate that Konoha's intelligence system deployed in the Kingdom of Water may have a big problem.

Therefore, whether it is for the purpose of excluding the traitor or to investigate the truth of the matter, the cause of their death must be confirmed.

"Sure enough, do you still want to go to Kirigakure Village..."

The ANBU ninjas present looked at each other.

No one is willing to take over the hot potato that is Kirigakure Village.

However, this time they came together, they were not originally asked to sign up on their own.

Sarutobi Shinnosuke glanced around and said: "I will personally lead this mission. The goal is to sneak into the Kingdom of Water secretly and collect information related to Kirigakure Village and the ANBU team. The mission is organized into two four-person teams. , priority will be given to members who have been to the Water Country and are familiar with the local conditions. The person whose code name is called below will come forward."

"White Wolf."

"Black Dog."

"Night Owl."

"Green carp."

……

Bai Mingyu felt that he was quite unlucky.

A few months ago, he had just returned from the Kingdom of Water, and unexpectedly he had to return to that land of right and wrong again in the blink of an eye.

The current Water Kingdom and Kirigakure Village are not good places to go. The rebellion of Kaguya and the Oniden clan a few months ago has certainly consumed a lot of Kirigakure's strength, leaving Kirigakure's defense empty, but it is also Because of this, the Mist Ninja's behavior has become more ruthless than before. Basically, as long as a prisoner is captured, he will be tortured and tortured, the ninjutsu used will be completely revealed, and then killed.

Sometimes even torture.

Moreover, Kirigakure is the only village among the five major countries that does not accept the prisoner exchange policy. If ninjas from other countries sneak in, once they are discovered, there will be only death.

Considering the information that other Anbu knew, Bai Mingyu also knew something else about Kirigakure:

"If I remember correctly..."

Uchiha Obito should be in Kirigakure Village now, right?

During the previous ninja exam, due to the outbreak of the rebellion, the exam was terminated early. Bai Mingyu had not had time to see the three-tailed Jinchuuriki and the fourth Mizukage Yagura. However, the original Yagura was in a state of being masked many years ago. Male - was also under the control of Uchiha Obito's genjutsu, and even the various high-pressure and bloody policies that were widely implemented within Kirigakure's sphere of influence were probably promulgated by him under Obito's control.

As for the purpose...

After falling into darkness, Obito was able to kill even his former teacher, the Fourth Hokage. In order to avenge Lin, it is not surprising that he would kill everyone in Kirigakure Village.

In fact, Kirigakure Village has indeed been declining in the past ten years or so. Minazuki, Kaguya, Oniden... the basically famous blood family have all been killed. The effective strength of the entire village has been weakened to the extreme, and it is about to overtake the next door. The Sand Hidden Village.

——You must know that in Kirigakure's heyday, the number of blood families was greater than that of Konoha.

When Cibai Mingyu and Izumi and others passed by, they were still genin, so they could live in peace.

But if you go there as an ANBU, it won't be a joke.

……

"Dark Crow."

Sarutobi Shinnosuke called seven people in a row before stopping. Counting himself, there were no more or no less than eight people, which was exactly the size of two ANBU teams.

but……

"Weasel?"

Bai Mingyu looked back a little strangely. It was reasonable for him, Hinata Asuka, and the ANBU ninja codenamed Black Dog to be chosen. After all, they had all been to Kirigakure Village before, but had Itachi also been there? Could it be before he joined ANBU?

"I passed by the Kingdom of Water before when I was on a mission, so I know a little bit about this country." Itachi explained casually.

Sarutobi Shinnosuke counted the heads and nodded: "Then everyone is here. Let's go back and clean up tonight and set off tomorrow morning... Well, if there are relatives at home, it's best to tell them in advance, because There is a chance that some of us may not come back.”

"..."

Does this mean making a will...

Bai Mingyu couldn't help but the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, while Hinata Asuka next to him showed a very calm expression and patted Bai Mingyu and Itachi on the shoulders: "Captain Shinnosuke is right. If you still have a wish that you can't let go, Let’s do it quickly tonight, once we go to the Kingdom of Water, we may not have the chance in the future.”

"..."

Why is it getting scarier the more you say it...

Bai Mingyu subconsciously recalled the image of Jiraiya teaching Naruto how to learn psychic skills, as if Jiraiya had said similar words to Naruto at that time.

"Disband!"

As Sarutobi Shinnosuke finished speaking, the ANBU whose names were not called left one after another.

Kakashi and several other ANBU of Team Six also turned and left.

Bai Mingyu stood up with the mask in hand. Suddenly he vaguely thought of something. He glanced around and looked back at Hinata Asuka with some confusion: "Senior Asuka, you know that there is a newcomer named Uzuki Xiyan who has joined the ANBU." Which department? It seems that I haven't seen her in this period of time...

By the way, is Shisui-senpai not in the village now? "

It stands to reason that Uzuki Xiyan is also a newcomer to ANBU. If she is currently engaged in other tasks, she should appear at this emergency gathering.

And Shisui...

Hearing this name, Itachi also stopped and looked over nervously.

Hinata Asuka looked at Bai Mingyu and Itachi and frowned slightly: "Uoyuki Xiyan...who is she to you?"

"She is my former teammate. She should have joined ANBU like me." Bai Mingyu replied.

"Teammate..."

Hinata Asuka pursed her lips and smiled a little reluctantly: "Well...I don't know very well...Maybe he is busy with other tasks and can't get away...As for Shisui-senpai, he has been there for a month or two. I was sent out on a long-term mission before, but I haven’t returned to the village yet.”

Long-term mission...

A bad premonition suddenly appeared in Bai Mingyu's heart: Could it be...
