  Chapter 18: In vain

  "I understand." Shinji took out the key and opened the door, and said to Iruka before entering the house: "Thank you for issuing the pass for me this morning." Iruka was stunned: "You're welcome

  . "

  Shinji nodded, entered the room and closed the door.

  Lying on the bed, he relaxed a little.

  Bai has not been arrested, which means that what happened last night has not been exposed.

  "Kirigakure is putting pressure on the village for people"

  he smiled.

  Originally, he was still a little unsure about who was behind Shiro, but now that Kirigakure showed up, he was immediately convinced that Shiro was the spy planted by Kirigakure in Konoha.

  Kirigakure's behavior today.

  On the surface, he was attacking Konoha, but secretly, he was protecting Shiro.

  The logic here is easy to understand.

  And Konoha would take Shiro in, which is actually very normal.

  first.

  The Snow Clan that Shiro was born in was wiped out by the Kirigakure Village. As a remnant of the Snow Clan, everyone would feel that Shiro has a blood feud with the Kirigakure Village.

  Secondly.

  Kirigakure once planned to trigger the Three-Tails rampage in Konoha Village.

  It was in this battle that Kakashi personally killed Nohara Rin who was forced to become the Three-Tails Jinchuuriki.

  This grudge between Konoha and Kirigakure is huge, so Konoha's top management will obviously not let go of any opportunity to antagonize Kirigakure.

  at last.

  Shiro is probably the last ninja in the current ninja world who has the limit of Ice Release Blood Succession.

  If Shiro is taken in, Ice Release may become Konoha's blood successor in a few decades.

  There are motives and interests, and the possibility of Shiro being a Kirigakure spy can be ruled out, so it is completely reasonable for the village to take Shiro in.

  After all, it was impossible for Kirigakure to deliberately destroy a member of his bloodline limited family in order to plant a spy.

  Thinking of this, Shinji shook his head.

  The village may have miscalculated this time!

  Although Shiro has the Ice Release Blood Succession Limit, he was already living in exile before the Snow Clan was exterminated by Kirigakure. It can be seen that he is not a direct member of the Snow Clan, and with Shiro's character, it is difficult to say that there is such a thing as hatred

  . How much he cares.

  In the original time and space, the reason why he followed Zabuza and was even willing to protect Zabuza with his life was not to take revenge on Kirigakure.

  Shinji cursed in his heart: "It would be funny if the village really handed Bai over!"

  This kind of thing is really hard to say.

  If Kirigakure had been more resolute and used war as a threat, the village might have been handed over to Bai by the outsiders.

  This kind of thing has not happened before.

  After confirming that Shiro was a Kirigakure spy, he became confused again: "Could it be that Kirigakure deliberately approached me as a mission assigned to Shiro by Kirigakure?"

  He didn't understand what Kirigakure's purpose was.

  However, after Kirigakure's actions today, the probability of Shiro being investigated by the village was reduced, and he was also much safer.

  [The plane is invaded.]

  [Countdown: 2]

  At this moment, the mysterious voice sounded again, reminding Shinji that the invasion was approaching.

  He suddenly sat up from the bed, gathered his thoughts, temporarily put Bai's matter behind him, and thought about his own matters.

  "If I can get Uchiha Fugaku's kaleidoscope before this invasion, not only will I be safe, I can even try to improve my rating and strive for higher rewards!" You want me to save the ninja world

  ?
  Sorry, I want to pick your wool!
  While thinking about it, Shinji took out a map of the village and laid it flat on the bed.

  "Except for the central block, residential area, Hokage Building, hospital, and Ninja School, the remaining area is Hinata's family land. This area is the Nara family's deer park, this area is the Inuzuka family's kennel, and this area is "Aburame's insect house."

  He used a pen to eliminate them one by one on the map.

  He didn't know where Danzo's lair was, so he could only look for it on the map.

  Konoha says it's not small, but it's not big either.

  After excluding some core areas, commercial areas, residential areas, as well as the clan lands and clan properties of various ethnic groups, there are not many remaining areas.

  After eliminating some scraps, Shinji quickly focused on an area.

  "Is the base of the root here?"

  He couldn't believe it.

  Because this area is too close to the Uchiha clan, if Danzo places his base in this area, it means that he will deal with the Uchiha clan regardless of whether the Uchiha clan has any objections.

  He recalled the memory fragments left by the original owner.

  The original owner seemed to rarely go near that area, as if it was some kind of restricted area.

  Then, he circled several other suspicious areas on the map, which were also likely to be Danzo's lair.

  After doing this, he put away the map and came to the window.

  The sky is getting dark and the street lights have been turned on.

  In the distance, the lights in the ninja school were also bright. It seemed that the teachers were making final preparations for tomorrow's chunin exam.

  "I can only take action if there is another riot in the village during the Chunin Exams!"

  Shinji will not act blindly this time, he needs to wait for the opportunity.

  In the village.

  After being interrogated all night, Sasuke went out to eat something after sleeping all day. Then he walked aimlessly and came to a small river.

  "Why is the whole world targeting me? Damn it!"

  Thinking of what happened last night, he still couldn't suppress his anger.

  At this time, his eyes were attracted by a figure on the other side of the river.

  He recognized the other person, it was Uzumaki Naruto who was rumored to be the son of the fox demon in the ninja school, a guy he had never cared about in the past.

  The other person seemed to be like him at the moment. It was already dark and he should go home, but he was still walking aimlessly outside.

  Maybe it's the same situation.

  Naruto on the other side of the river also noticed Sasuke on this side.

  The two of them were looking at each other across a small river.

  After a while, Naruto walked to the shore, picked up a flat stone on the ground, and floated it in the direction of Sasuke.

  Pah. Pah. Pah.
  The stone hit the water, and with a crisp sound, it drew arcs and flew towards Sasuke.

  Sasuke at this end stretched out his right hand and firmly grasped the pebbles floating in the water.

  On the other side, Naruto smiled and waved at him.

  Sasuke muttered in his heart: "Why can that guy smile so happily when he is obviously hated by everyone?"

  Although he was puzzled, he found that he seemed to be infected by the other person's smile, and his originally gloomy mood suddenly improved a lot.

  boom!
  And just when Sasuke was about to throw the stones in his hand back to the other side, there was a sudden explosion in the woods not far behind him.

  Sasuke looked back and asked, "Are they fireworks?"

  At this moment, he did not notice that when he looked back, the two ANBU ninjas who were secretly protecting him and Naruto had already rushed to the grove where the explosion occurred.
   It seems that it’s not that you can’t post comments during this period, it’s just that others can’t read them. So if you want to complain or comment, you can post as usual, and it will be displayed after a while.
