Chapter 256 We have a traitor in our midst.
"Kakuzu, here is a confidential mission for you."
In a room, a man whose face could not be seen clearly handed a thin piece of paper to Kakuzu.
Kakuzu knelt on one knee, took the paper respectfully, and then prepared to put it in his arms - as a well-trained elite jounin, Kakuzu knew that if he directly lectured the adult in front of him, It would be rude to watch the content of the mission.
However, the adult whose face could not be seen clearly spoke like this.
"Kakuzu, there is no need to put it away. You can read it now. The reason why I prepared such a shallow piece of paper for you is so that you can destroy it after reading it. As I said just now, this is a confidential mission. ."
Kakuzu was not surprised, had no questions, or even uttered any words. The ninja just needed to follow the order.
Kakuzu took out the paper from his arms and read it carefully.
However, even though he was frightened and as calm as he was, he couldn't control himself at this moment.
"This, this"
"Kakuzu! Don't be distracted!"
Tiandao's voice suddenly reached Kakuzu's ears, bringing Kakuzu back to his senses.
As if he had just woken up from a dream, Kakuzu's eyes were full of confusion, but soon, this confusion disappeared, as if it had never existed before, and he nodded to Tiandao.
"I understand, leader."
Then, Kakuzu continued to concentrate on sealing the tailed beast.
But, what was that just now?
In fact, Kakuzu knew it very well, or in other words, it was a memory that Kakuzu could never forget. It was something that changed Kakuzu's life.
That thing was so important that I didn't even dare to forget it.
However, although it is important, although Kakuzu will never forget it, if Kakuzu is asked to evaluate that matter, Kakuzu would probably only say this - it is just an insignificant thing, and there is no need to care about it now. .
Yes, although Kakuzu always remembered that incident, he felt that there was no need to care about it.
In fact, the correct statement shouldn't be what Kakuzu said, it should be - that matter doesn't matter anymore, because I have already made a choice.
The Magic Dragon's Nine Sealing Techniques continued, and the tailed beast chakra in Gaara's body was still being sucked into the body of the outside demon.
And the events that Kakuzu just recalled while distracted, just like the Nine Sealings of the Phantom Dragon, they are not over yet.
Kakudu was holding the paper, and he rarely panicked, but this time, his hands couldn't help but tremble.
The mission described on the paper was very simple. It was just a murder mission that Kakuzu had seen countless times. The only difference was that the target of the assassination was Senju Hashirama.
This mission is for Kakuzu to assassinate Senju Hashirama.
The man whose face couldn't be seen clearly spoke again.
"You can do it, right? Kakuzu."
Kakuzu suppressed the panic in his heart and nodded without hesitation.
"I can!"
This is not self-confidence, nor is it that Kakuzu underestimates the God of Ninjas, but because Kakuzu is a ninja. In Kakuzu's philosophy, ninjas only need to follow orders, no matter how absurd the order is.
Therefore, while fear was still brewing in Kakuzu's heart, his body had subconsciously answered "I can".
A few days later.
Kakuzu set out. As an elite Jonin, he easily sneaked into the Land of Fire, and then implemented his plan to assassinate Senju Hashirama!
"Earth Release·Earth Spear!"
The arm transformed into black, like an indestructible spear, piercing Senju Hashirama's heart!
Then, Kakuzu's power, which was enough to kill a Jonin, was blocked by the man in front of him. He did not release any ninjutsu, but simply blocked it with his hands.
"Who?"
The man looked at Kakuzu with an innocent face.
"The person who assassinated me? Did I do something wrong? Ah, it seems that I have to reflect on it in the future, alas."
The man named Senju Hashirama did not take his assassination seriously at all, as if he was It's like watching a child play.
Kakuzu showed no expression. Now that he is here and since he has decided to assassinate the ninja god, he has long given up the idea of survival. He does not need to worry about anything. He has already regarded himself as a dead person!
With the other hand, strike again!
The battle is about to break out.
No, maybe calling it "battle" is too high-profile. If I have to say it, it should be called "playing" which is more appropriate.
The white-haired man squatted in front of Kakuzu, who was lying on the ground with wounds all over his body.
"You are so courageous. Which country sent you? How dare you assassinate your elder brother! I will make your entire village pay a huge price to pay for this act! I will engrave in your bones the memory of not daring to resist Konoha. !"
Kakuzu looked at the white-haired man in front of him. He knew that this man, known as the fastest speed in the ninja world, was the younger brother of Senju Hashirama. Unlike Senju Hashirama, this younger brother's methods were extremely tough. , is a very domineering person, and it is in line with his style to be able to say what he just said.
"I won't tell."
Kakuzu said calmly. He couldn't tell his village, and he didn't bring his forehead protector when he came.
There was nothing on him that could prove which country or ninja village he came from.
Tobirama snorted coldly.
"No need! What you have to do next is to die in pain at the hands of the torture troops. By the way, you must have felt it too. You have been under my illusion. You cannot commit suicide. Okay. , That’s it, it’s time to set off for hell.”
“Tobirama!”
At this moment, Hashirama behind him spoke.
"What are you doing? I just asked you to help me ask which ninja village came to assassinate me and what I did wrong. Then I can go over and apologize! Why are you like this? Let him go!" Tobirama frowned
. .
"Brother! It's absolutely impossible to apologize!"
Hashirama was stunned. In fact, Hashirama also knew that in terms of resourcefulness, his younger brother was far superior to him. Therefore, as long as he did not violate his principles, Hashirama would still Listen to Tobirama's words.
For things that go against principles like killing Madara, Hashirama will use his unparalleled strength and the majesty of his big brother to suppress Tobirama, but this kind of [non-apology] thing that does not involve principles, Hashirama He would scratch his head like an idiot and ask such questions.
"Ah? Don't you need to apologize?"
Tobirama held his forehead.
"They are here to assassinate you! Brother, if someone comes to assassinate you and you apologize, aren't you just encouraging others to assassinate you in disguise? Although you are not afraid, as Hokage, being assassinated every day is nothing. What's the matter?"
Hashirama nodded as if he understood.
"I see, I understand, then I won't apologize. But you still have to let him go! Tobirama! This might be a ninja from a small country. It is very difficult for a small country to cultivate an elite jounin. You can't kill him! "
Tobirama looked at the determination in Hashirama's eyes and sighed. He knew that Hashirama would not back down on this matter, so he nodded.
"I understand, brother. I will let him go. By the way, I will have someone escort him out of the Fire Country to show our magnanimity." "
Yes! Very good!"
Hashirama nodded with satisfaction.
In this way, Kakuzu ended the mission with an assassination without any threat, and was escorted out of the Land of Fire.
Of course, it was said to be an escort, but it was actually surveillance, and Tobirama was not so kind.
Kakuzu returned to the village successfully. His mission failed, but he was not that worried, because everyone knew that this mission was almost impossible to complete, and the higher-ups must have been prepared to fail.
At least, that's what he thought before he was imprisoned and tortured worse than life.
He experienced all the experiences he had not received in Konoha when he returned to his village.
Sitting in the dark cage, the smell of blood could be heard from every part of his body. That was his blood.
It hurts.
As a result, Kakuzu stole the village's secret technique - Earth Resentment Yu, and used this technique to kill the village's senior officials.
Well why would you do this?
It must be because resentment finally arose in this ninja's heart. Perhaps, resentment had already arisen from the moment he accepted the task of assassinating Hashirama - how could such a task be completed?
What happened next only strengthened this resentment.
From this day on, the Takigakure ninja named Kakuzu became a rebel ninja.
Two big birds with white bodies and black lines fly in the sky, just like birds appearing in paintings. One thing can be clearly felt at the first glance - these two birds are too unreal. .
This feeling is like something from the second dimension appearing in the third dimension, full of contradictions everywhere.
Jiraiya sat on the bird and laughed.
"I didn't expect there was someone like you in Tsunade's ANBU! It's such a convenient ability, not bad! Not bad!" Sitting on the other
bird was a ninja wearing ANBU costume and an ANBU mask. , he nodded slightly to Jiraiya at this moment.
"Jiraiya-sama, please forgive me for being ignorant, but where should we go next? Although in my education, as a ninja, I shouldn't ask this kind of question, but the current situation, If I don't know, I can't control the direction of flight, or do I just need to fly aimlessly? Lord Jiraiya, please make it clear." Jiraiya touched his chin, as if thinking deeply
.
"When I think about it, I really can't fly aimlessly, but I'm not unprepared."
Anbu said happily.
"Well, if Jiraiya-sama can know the destination accurately, that would be great!"
Jiraiya laughed.
"That's right! My preparation is to fly forward! All the way forward! After all, I don't know the destination, so I can only try my luck."
ANBU: ""
Jiraiya doesn't know the location of Ryūchi Cave, even if Even if you know it, you won't know where the Mirror Man is.
So, they could only try their luck. Fortunately, with the help of this flying bird, their search range was very large.
Looking at the ring on his hand, Mirror Man always felt that something was wrong. It would be fine if it were something else, but this thing is a ring issued by the Akatsuki organization. There are only ten of them. It suddenly lights up, so it must not be broken. So simple.
Moreover, how can such a ring be broken before it can shine? You can't just flash your head to ask for help before you die, right?
Okay, no more kidding.
The Mirror Man walked to a big tree and sat down with his back against the tree. He wanted to think carefully about why the ring shined.
Why are you thinking about this matter?
Well, there are many reasons for this, various, and the most important one is-Mirror Man is boring!
In other words, this reason is the only reason. It was during the boring process that such a "ring supernatural incident" happened, so the mirror was so interested.
As for the art of "inorganic reincarnation"?
That kind of technique can also be learned by humans?
This was the first time Kagami had spent so much time on ninjutsu that he had no talent for since he was a child, and then he felt despair.
This thing, from the perspective of people in the mirror, is simply impossible to learn!
However, in the original work, the fact that Kabuto casually learned this technique in the later period is a constant blow to the mirror person.
I have to say, there is a huge difference between having talent and not having talent.
Mirror Man has basically given up on the art of inorganic reincarnation and only learns it occasionally, so Mirror Man is very idle now, which makes Mirror Man very boring.
It just so happened that the ring suddenly lit up at this time, and he met the idle and panicked Mirror Man. How could he give up if he didn't study this thoroughly?
After finally getting things done, Mirror Man decided to have a good talk with the ring in his hand.
Taking off the ring and placing it on the ground, Mirror Man decided to use the method of repairing machinery passed down from his previous life!
A top-secret method that will never be revealed!
Taking a deep breath, Susanoo appeared. Mirror Man raised Susanoo and hit the ring hard!
If it's broken, just smash it and it'll be fine.
Two days later.
Naruto and his party arrived outside the Five-Seal Barrier.
Since this time there was no need to help Kankuro detoxify like in the original work, Naruto and the others moved forward one day.
This day was advanced, causing Naruto and the others to arrive before the Akatsuki organization's seal was over!
In the original work, the Akatsuki organization had just finished sealing the tailed beasts in three days before Naruto and the others came.
However, there are some not-so-good things that happened a day early. For example, Kaiban's people haven't arrived yet. After all, it was Naruto and the others who were ahead of schedule this time, but Kaiban's mission was not advanced, so Kaiban's mission was not advanced. They would arrive a day later.
Therefore, Naruto and his group had to face this five-seal barrier.
It just depends on whether Naruto and the others can break the five barriers in one day.
If he could, he might really be able to save Gaara, but if he couldn't, he might not be able to.
After trying for two days, Mirror Man discovered that his ancestral repair method didn't seem to work very well.
So, Mirror Man put the ring on his hand again and began to feel it carefully.
"Yeah"
As soon as he felt it, Mirror Man realized something was wrong.
Akatsuki organized their method of meeting in the form of projection, called "Phantom Lantern Technique".
To put it simply, members of the Akatsuki organization use the rings in their hands to emit "missing waves", and then Payne, as the "Commander Tower", receives
these "missing waves", so projection can be achieved.
And now, Mirror Man has discovered through the ring that Payne is receiving the "Missing Wave"! In fact, I often felt this kind of thing before, but Jingren didn't want to participate in the gatherings organized by the Akatsuki organization. He also knew what the Akatsuki organization would do, so Jingren gradually ignored this thing.
Now that he feels it carefully, Jingren finally remembered this matter. He has the ring of the Akatsuki organization. Therefore, he can participate in the party of the Akatsuki organization. Of course, the premise is that Payne, the "commander tower", is willing to accept Jingren's "missing". "Wave" will do.
"Okay, let me try if you can take me in."
So, Mirror Man used the ring and began to send out waves of thoughts.
Don’t forget, Kagami is also from the Akatsuki organization! He can still do things of this level.
After a few seconds.
"Buzz!"
With a slight sound, the projection of the Mirror Man appeared on the little finger of the heretic demon's left hand, filling in the last gap.
The nine people from the Hmm
Xiao organization looked over instantly, and so did the Mirror Man.
Ten people looked at each other, all confused.
We have a traitor!
Thanks to [Jiujiu Lonely One] for the reward!
