It was another beautiful afternoon, and the Kusagakure Kage was quietly watching everything in front of a large window.

Suddenly, the office door was violently knocked on.

Bang! Bang!

The Kage frowned as he wondered why would anyone knock on the door that hard.

“Enter.”

Although he was a little displeased, the Kage quickly shrugged it off as there must be a pressing matter if someone bothered him like this.

After receiving the approval of the Kage, a Kusagakure Shinobi rushed in.

The Kage observed the Kusagakure Shinobi in front of him and noticed his forehead was covered with sweat and his legs trembling slightly. It must be because he had just run there as fast as he could.

The Kusagakure Shinobi quickly caught his breath before saying, “Kage, this is bad. The village has been infiltrated by Iwagakure Shinobis.”

The Kage had a strange look on his face. 

Why would the Iwagakure send a spy to Kusagakure? Kusagakure did not have anything that was worth their attention.

Moreover, in this situation, Iwagakure should be sending a spy to Konoha instead of Kusagakure, which would eventually lean toward the victor between the two.

“Tell me the details.” The Kage said.

The Shinobi thought for a moment, organized his words, and then said, “Aonuma-sama was injured during the mission and returned to the village. When he was in the hospital to undergo treatment, an Iwagakure Shinobi suddenly appeared in the ward. Fortunately, Aonuma-sama’s sharp senses saw through his disguise before the Iwagakure Shinobi attacked. Otherwise, he would be in danger. After the Iwagakure Shinobi’s disguise was discovered by Aonuma-sama, he ran away. Aonuma-sama was afraid that he had accomplices and would pose a threat to the village, so he sent me to inform you.”

The leader was lost in thought. He always felt that something was wrong, so he asked, “Did you notice what Ninjutsu that Iwagakure Shinobi used, or his Kunai or Shuriken style?”

Although each Kunai and Shuriken style in each country was almost the same, they had subtle differences.

The Kusagakure Shinobi thought for a moment and said, “He didn’t use Kunai. He only used Ninjutsu once. It’s a Thunder-Release.”

The Kage was speechless.

The ratio of Iwagakure Shinobi that could use Thunder-Release was probably equivalent to the ratio of Hokage that could use Fire-Release.

The Kage was almost certain that the Iwagakure Shinobi who attacked Aonuma was definitely not a real Iwagakure Shinobi but the Shinobis from the other villages.

The Ninjutsu the spy used was part of it, but the most important thing was the motive.

There was no need for Rock to send spies to Kusagakure.

“Then, which village was it?” The leader of the Kusagakure Shinobis narrowed his eyes and had a vague guess in his heart.

The war had just ended, and the only ones who had the strength to do such a thing were those Major Countries.

And among those countries, the only ones who had motives were the Root that he offended recently.

Of course, he was only guessing at the moment, and the investigation results might say otherwise.

The Kage quickly mobilized all the Shinobis nearby as well as the Anbu.

Nagasawa that disguised himself as Morishita also received the order. Although his shadow clone had not returned, he already had a hunch that the Iwagakure Shinobi was Kakashi.

In order to make his plan work as intended, Nagasawa mobilized a large number of Anbu to patrol the village on the pretense that he wanted to catch the spy.

An Anbu Captain said cautiously, “It’s not good to send out so many people. It will be bad if someone attacks Anbu.”

Nagasawa smiled and said, “Anbu’s most important places are protected by capable Shinobis. If anyone goes there, they will fall into our trap. Moreover, no enemy dares to go to Anbu. Anbu has always been the most dangerous place.”

Nagasawa showed a sad expression, “Aonuma Jonin, he is an indispensable Shinobi for our village. I am very sad that he was attacked. I, Morishita, will definitely catch that Iwagakure spy. He will die a horrible death!

Hearing Nagasawa’s sincere words, the Anbu members beside him could not help but clap and praise, “If there were more Shinobis like Morishita-sama, Kusagakure would’ve easily caught up to the Five Great Shinobi Countries.”

“That’s right, no one is more concerned about Kusagakure than Morishita-sama.” another Anbu chimed in.

“A few more Shinobis like him?” Nagasawa smiled. If there were a few more of him, the country of Kusagakure would probably be destroyed.





Under the lead of Nagasawa’s shadow clone, Kakashi, Ensui, and Midori quickly rushed to the Anbu Base.

At this time, there weren’t many Anbu left in their base. Most of them were stationed in some secret places.

The four of them deliberately didn’t hide and directly swaggered into the Anbu’s vision.

Seeing the four people dressed as Iwagakure Shinobi who appeared out of nowhere, the two Anbu that guarded the door immediately pressed a button.

Beep! Beep!!

It was unknown what alarm it was, but it immediately sounded.

As the two Kusagakure Anbu was about to use Ninjutsu, Nagasawa’s shadow clone made a move.

Boom!!

Nagasawa’s shadow clone instantly disappeared from the eyes of the two Kusagakure Anbu.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

In an instant, the two Kusagakure Anbu felt a strong force hit their bodies from behind.

Bam!!!

The two Kusagakure Anbu were directly sent flying to the courtyard wall.

This secretly made Ensui and Kakashi shocked. They wouldn’t be surprised if the one in front of them was the real Nagasawa, but this was Nagasawa’s shadow clone. If the shadow clone was that strong, then how strong was the real Nagasawa?

Ensui felt that he might have underestimated Nagasawa’s power. Maybe Nagasawa was more terrifying than he imagined.

“Let’s go. Take care of Ka. He is just a shadow clone.” Nagasawa reminded him.

He didn’t care. With his speed, no one could hit him.

Midori Inuzuka then said smugly, “Don’t worry. With me here, I will definitely block the attack.”

Hearing Midori Inuzuka’s words, Nagasawa was even more worried. He said, “there’s no need to go that far. If the attack is too strong, just let him take it. He’s a shadow clone, after all. If he dies, the real one won’t die.”

The shadow clone Kakashi:… So be it.

The sudden alarm alerted the few Anbus in the base. Except for those deep underground, almost all of them rushed towards the sentry post.

The only remaining Squad Leader quickly gave the order.

“Hurry up and inform the Kage about the situation, and ask for some reinforcement if possible. The rest of you will guard the entrance with me. Do not let the enemy come in.”

It required a lot of money, time, and effort to build the Anbu Base. Even if they did not lose any intel, the damage to buildings was bad enough.

“Damn it, why now of all times?” The Squad Leader secretly cursed.

Today, neither the Commander nor the Vice-Commander came to Anbu.

The Commander was called by Kage, and Morishita took three squads out. At this time, Kusagakure Anbu was at its weakest.
