CH 251

Seeing dozens of Amegakure’s Shinobi suddenly appeared in front of him, Hiruko’s pupils shrank, and he suddenly remembered the nonsense that Kanpū had just said.

‘Did they really try to assassinate the Shinobi World’s demigod?’

Hiruko paused for a while, and looked at the Amegakure’s Shinobi, who are rushing here, in doubt, but after looking for a while, he didn’t see Shinobi World’s demigod, Hanzō of the Salamander anywhere.

At the front.

Wild Dogs did not know whether to cry or laugh when he saw this.

‘They actually came at this time…’

They ran all the way before and deliberately left the traces of their whereabouts. The purpose is to guide Amegakure’s Shinobi to the Land of Earth, but they didn’t expect these Amegakure’s Shinobi didn’t come sooner or later, and instead come at this time.

However, Kanpū is not surprised but rather happy. With a lot of people here, it is the best environment for him to escape with Transparent Release!

He hurriedly whispered a few words to Wild Dog.

In the next moment, Kanpū formed a hand seal and use Shadow Clone Technique.

Bang!

The white smoke instantly covered him and Wild Dog, and then two figures rushed out of the white smoke towards different direction at high speed.

Whether it is Hiruko or Amegakure’s Shinobi, they were all attracted by these two figures.

“It’s Konoha’s Anbu!”

“Catch them!”

There was a shout coming from the Amegakure’s Shinobi crowd, and the huge Amegakure’s Shinobi team immediately divided two teams and rushed towards Wild Dog and Kanpū’s shadow clone.

As for Kanpū’s main body, he naturally has used Transparent Release, and then stands in the same place without moving.

Hiruko looked at the direction where Kanpū’s shadow clone left, and then looked at the dozens of Amegakure’s Shinobi, who were approaching, and frowned. The hatred from his heart and the reason in the brain were entangled, and at the next moment, reason finally prevailed. Hiruko coldly snorted, and flashed away in an instant.

Compared with the momentary hatred, eternal longevity is what Hiruko pursues. After returning to his senses, Hiruko immediately began to consider the situation he faced after his whereabouts were leaked.

‘It’s nothing more than being chased by Konoha Anbu, but it seems that it’s time to leave the Land of Rain!’

Hiruko’s eyes flickered with cold light. Among the Five Great Shinobi Villages in the Shinobi World, the one with the most Kekkei Genkai is undoubtedly Land of Water’s Kirigakure, and currently, Kirigakure has sent a large number of Shinobi to invade the Land of Fire, so their internal defense must be weak, and it is suitable for him to act!

…

At the same time, after losing the “deadweight”Kanpū, Wild Dog’s speed soared, and in just half an hour, he lost the Amegakure’s Shinobi. He then ran towards at the meeting place agreed with Peppa the Wild Boar and Wild Cat before.

The meeting point is under the mountain wall where the wild team previously hides from the rain.

After Wild Dog arrived, Peppa the Wild Boar and Wild Cat also arrived shortly after, and after a while, Kanpū also came over.

Although there were a lot of Amegakure’s Shinobi, they won’t be able to find Kanpū without Byakugan. Therefore, when they left in a mighty manner before, Kanpū easily escapes and rushes back.

“It’s good that everyone is safe!” Seeing the three people return safely, Wild Dog released a breath of relief.

“We must leave the Land of Rain immediately. Hiruko and Amegakure’s Shinobi are all chasing after us, so we can’t stay in this country for a long time!” Peppa the Wild Boar said solemnly.

“But Captain Wild Fox hasn’t appeared yet!” Wild Cat looked worried, “Is that puppet master has already…”

“I will send a shadow clone to take a look.”

Wild Dog said, “Everyone need to leave the Land of Rain immediately!”

Kanpū also wanted to create a shadow clone, but this will consume too much Spiritual Energy. His head is still a little heavy, moreover, they had to hurry, so he can only give up.

After that, Wild Dog’s shadow clone went to find Wild Fox, and the four people chose to enter the Land of Grass, and then crossed the Land of Grass to return to the Land of Fire.

One day later, Wild Dog’s shadow clone arrived at the small village where they had encountered Sasori, but unfortunately, not at he didn’t find Wild Fox’s trace, they also did not find Sasori’s trace of departure.

Helpless, Wild Dog’s shadow clone could only wander around until his Chakra was exhausted and dissipated.

At this time, Kanpū’s group has already crossed the Land of Grass and returned to the Land of Fire’s border.

After receiving the memory of his shadow clone, Wild Dog staggered, and his eyes were too tired to open. It took quite a while for him to recover.

“Wild Dog, have you found Captain Wild Fox?” Wild Cat’s eyes lit up and she hurriedly asked.

Wild Dog shook his head: “Sorry, I didn’t find any trace of Captain.”

Everyone’s hearts sank when they heard this.

Kanpū sighed silently: ‘Although I reminded Captain Wild Fox to find a chance to slip away, but the other side is Sasori of the Red Sand after all, how can it be easy to escape from him?’

Kanpū silently took out the Shinobi log and started writing.

Everyone rested for a long time at the Land of Fire’s border, and then continued on their way.

When they returned to Konoha, it is already seven days later.

…

Hokage Tower.

Wild Dog took Kanpū’s Shinobi log, and represented the wild team at Hiruzen’s Office to report on their work, while Kanpū’s group of three waited in the locker room.

Half an hour later, Wild Dog came back from the office.

“Wild Dog.” Wild Cat looked at him and asked, “What did Hokage-sama say about Captain Wild Fox?”

Wild Dog said bitterly: “Hokage-sama said that he would write a letter to the leader of Konoha’s team in Amegakure, hoping that he could help search for him, but the hope is small.”

“We shouldn’t have left like that in the first place.” Peppa the Wild Boar said weakly.

“At that time, even if we stayed, we couldn’t change anything.” Wild Dog said, “Wild Cat’s Genjutsu can’t be used on the puppets at all, and your Taijutsu is also restrained by the puppets!”

“But there are still you and Husky! You are a Tokubetsu Jōnin, and Husky’s Ninjutsu is also very powerful. If we stay, even if we cannot defeat that puppet master, we can at least still escape with Captain Wild Fox!” Peppa the Wild Boar retorted.

Wild Dog shook his head and said: “Husky’s Ninjutsu is indeed powerful, but you must have also seen it when we were fighting against Hiruko. Ten minutes of high-intensity battle is already his limit.”

Kanpū looked depressed: ‘Don’t blame me, I’m still a child!’

The group chatted for a while and ended the conversation in a dull atmosphere.

Kanpū put on his own clothes and came down from the Hokage Tower, and ran into Danzō at the entrance.

“We meet again, Gekkō Kanpū.”

Danzō has no expression on his face, his one eye is drooping, and his aura is strong.

“Danzō-sama.”

Kanpū calmly greeted him respectfully.

“Come with me.”

Danzō gave an order, and then came to the small conference room from before.

Kanpū sat opposite Danzō, feeling alert in his heart, and asked: “Did Danzō-sama call me to ask me about joining the Root?”

Danzō did not answer Kanpū’s question, instead, he mentioned the mission: “Mission 069 was actually my idea.”

Kanpū showed the right amount of surprise at the right time, and after an instant, he asked: “What does Danzō-sama want to say?”

“During the war, for the interests of the country and the village, it is inevitable to sacrifice the lives of others. The missions from Sandaime are mostly to spy on information and assassinate the enemy’s higher-ups, which will not affect the overall situation at all. What should happen will still happen in the end. Only by focusing on the whole Shinobi World and working together can we win this war!”

Danzō said in a low voice, “What do you think, Gekkō Kanpū?”

Kanpū’s heart skipped a beat: ‘What should I say? According to my modern thinking, I agree with Danzō. After all, we must unite all forces that can be united. In front of the country’s interests, it is understandable to use some crafty plots and conspiracies!’

But agreeing to him does not mean that Kanpū approves of Danzō.

So Kanpū evasively said: “I am no one in the Anbu, what can I do about it.”

There was a faint flicker in Danzō’s eye: “It seems that you have no intention of joining the Root.”

Kanpū asked back: “Why is Danzō-sama so persistent in asking me to join the Root?”

“As I said, staying in Anbu will only waste your talents. If it wasn’t for my recommendation, Sandaime would not have given you mission 069.” Danzō said.

‘Then, I have to thank you.’

Kanpū rolled his eyes out of his heart, but there was an expression of gratitude on his face: “Thank you for your recommendation, Danzō-sama!”

“…”

‘It’s over in just one sentence?’

Danzō looked at Kanpū deeply, and suddenly felt that this little brat was not as ‘honest’ as it seemed on the surface.
