Travel through Konoha and open treasure chests

"Ok?"

Nara Shikaku was stunned for a moment, and frowned with some uncertainty: "What do you mean?"

"In addition to the seven root ninjas who were killed, there is another person who participated in this operation. He has been hiding in the dark and has not taken any action, but I have sensed his existence."

Bai Mingyu repeated it, squinting his eyes slightly, and the scene he saw before appeared in his mind.

--Before the explosion at the Uchiha station, a black figure like ink appeared very briefly on the wall of a house not far from Izumi's house. The duration from the appearance to the disappearance was It didn't last more than a few tenths of a second, but... Bai Mingyu was sure that it was not an illusion.

Because at the moment when he released Mokobotemo and froze the time and space of the entire North Street, he did capture eight breaths.

However, there were only seven root ninjas killed by him in the end.

The remaining one, when Bai Mingyu killed the first person, had already sunk into the ground and disappeared completely as if the world had evaporated, even if Bai Mingyu opened his perception ability to the limit and even released When a huge amount of cold wave swept through the entire North Street, its existence was no longer captured. This situation undoubtedly seemed strange.

Is it some kind of special secret technique to conceal the breath?

Or is it the blood inheritance limit that can block perception?

These two possibilities are not impossible, but Bai Mingyu is more inclined to the other possibility--

"He's from that organization."

Bai Mingyu said.

Nara Shikaku's expression changed slightly: "What organization are you talking about?"

"It's the organization behind the masked man."

Bai Mingyu took a slight breath, considered it, and slowly said: "Beside the masked man who cooperated with Danzo, there was a ninja with a very powerful concealment ability. I have seen him several times before. That guy's appearance The characteristics look similar to those of Nepenthes...

The explosion that occurred at the Uchiha station may not be just a revenge action by the group of root ninjas. There is also a masked man and his organization behind it. As for the purpose of creating this incident...

It's very simple. The first is to destroy the possibility of peace negotiations between the Uchiha clan and Konoha. The second... is probably to force me to defect. "

"?!"

Nara Shikaku's eyelids twitched.

The explosion didn't look complicated on the surface. Although all the root ninjas involved in the operation were killed by Bai Mingyu on the spot, and no witnesses were left behind, it was easy to figure out the incident based on the circumstances left at the scene. reason.

The people and motivations are all very clear.

But if you think about it carefully, there are several doubts that are difficult to explain.

It stands to reason that if you want to assassinate Bai Mingyu, it is most reasonable to choose the area where Bai Mingyu usually operates. As a department that was once active in the village, Genbe has a large amount of information related to the ninjas in the village and wants to investigate. Bai Mingyu's behavior is easy for them.

However, these root ninjas chose to take action at the Uchiha station. Even though there are only a few members of the Uchiha clan in the current residence, it is still not an easy task to quietly arrange so many detonating talismans without alerting other people. Bai Mingyu appeared at the Uchiha residence. , is an accidental event. If this thing does not happen, then all the traps set by the root ninja will be useless.

In this case, why do you still do such a thankless thing?

unless……

Their target is not Bai Mingyu alone, but to retaliate against the entire Uchiha clan!

Not long after the genocide incident, the relationship between Konoha and Uchiha is in a very delicate state. It is still basically at a deadlock, but it has just shown a slight easing trend due to the efforts of Itachi and Shisui. If this If such an explosion suddenly occurs at a time, one can imagine the consequences it will bring to both parties.

Maybe there will be Uchiha people who will take this account to the higher-ups of Konoha, which will arouse even stronger resentment.

Once that happens...

The tragedy of genocide a few days ago may happen again!

After all, Nara Shikaku is the chief think tank of Konoha. He quickly figured out the joints, and a layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead: "Those root ninjas... would actually do such a reckless thing?"

"People at the root of things, when did they ever do things without considering the consequences?"

Bai Mingyu didn't find it strange at all what these root ninjas did. In order to become the Hokage for himself, Danzo in the original book even colluded with Orochimaru to indirectly destroy Konoha and kill the Third Hokage. The opportunity to give up their position was only due to Tsunade's intervention and they had to delay their plans. From this point of view, these root ninjas really got Danzo's true inheritance.

As for Obito and Black Zetsu...

Destroying Uchiha and weakening Konoha was originally their original plan.

In order to achieve this goal, no matter what is done, it is understandable.

But understanding is understanding, and it is a fact that I almost killed Quan. If Bai Mingyu hadn't given the Lion King to Quan in advance, Quan would have died if today's explosion happened...

From the moment the fire shot into the sky, Bai Mingyu had already formed a deadly feud with these root ninjas and Hei Jue.

Although with Bai Mingyu's current strength, it is too early to say anything about destroying the Xiao organization, this revenge will one day be repaid...

"..."

Nara Shikaku was silent for a moment and said: "Yes, this is indeed the behavior of the root ninjas. If that is the case, then these root ninjas who insist on revenge are traitors trying to destroy the peace of the village. Although your method of killing them on the spot was excessive A little bit, but fortunately not many people witnessed it. As long as the Third Generation and the Uchiha clan are willing to issue a silence order, the impact of this incident should be suppressed...

As for the two advisors, there should be no big problem if three generations of adults come forward to make peace...

Bai Yu, what are your plans? "

"Are you going to..."

Bai Mingyu lowered his head slightly and looked at the ice floating next to him. He was silent for a few seconds and said, "I will carry out this mission out of the village as usual, but... I have to take one more person away."

Nara Shikaku's eyes flickered, and his face showed a clear look: "Is it Izumi?"

Bai Mingyu nodded.

"The existence of those root ninjas is a hidden danger. Before this hidden danger is completely clear, I don't worry about leaving her alone in the village. As for the masked man and the forces behind him... After what I said before is done, I will launch an investigation and may take some special measures for this purpose... Therefore, I need some authority to act alone, and I hope you and the village can cooperate."
