Hatake Sakumo quickly left the Konoha camp.
He said he wanted to go out in another identity, so naturally he would use the identity of ANBU captain, and the ninjas he would bring with him were also three squads, that is, a squadron of ANBU ninjas.
Basically all the ANBU shinobi he could muster at his disposal right now.
Hatake Sakumo and others quickly came to the area where there might be an ambush, and then slowed down.
Since we are in the land of rain, the sky has been raining, and the rain will wash away a lot of breath, so Hatake Sakumo had no idea of sensing breath at first.
But after walking for a while, everyone’s eyes flickered and frowned.
There was an extremely strong smell of blood that even the rain seemed unable to completely wash away.
After searching around, several ANBU ninjas finally found a hell-like battlefield, with shock in their eyes.
Hatake Sakumo also came here, looking at the cruel scene with a hint of shock.
All the corpses in the field were Iwagakure ninjas.
This should be the Iwagakure assassination team that sneaked in, but they all died here!
Who killed them? Who has such power
"Captain, they are all elite ninjas from Iwagakure, but the wounds cannot tell what kind of attack they encountered... It's as if they were directly bombarded by a violent force."
"Any ideas?"
Sakumo asked in a deep voice.
"It feels like it's not a ninjutsu or taijutsu, it's probably an attack from a psychic beast. Humans shouldn't be able to possess this kind of power." The ANBU ninja said uncertainly.
Hatake Sakumo suddenly fell into Chen Si.
At this time, another ANBU ninja discovered something.
"Captain, there are traces of corpse disposal here, it seems to be our method!"
"Um?!"
At this moment, Hatake Sakumo suddenly showed a surprised look, walked over quickly, and soon saw a trace on the ground.
If an ANBU ninja died outside during a mission, it would be impossible to bring the body back.
Even the news of why he died will not be revealed.
They are the ninjas who protect Konoha secretly, and they will disappear silently if they die in the secret.
ANBU ninjas generally carry some important secrets or information. Ninjas have various methods, and many people can find various important information from corpses.
Therefore, if an ANBU ninja dies, if there is a chance, his companions will definitely use special means to erase the body. This is already a common practice.
"How come there are our people...Did any team encounter them?"
An ANBU ninja looked at the scene in shock and said: "But except the captain, who can wipe out all these elite Iwagakure troops?!"
"Or a certain squad leader, or maybe a ninja at the root."
Listening to the analysis of several subordinates, Hatake Sakumo's expression kept changing, and finally shook his head and said: "Let's go, since they are dead, let's go back. Seeing that their heads have been chopped off, it should be us It was done by an outstanding ninja from one side.”
"Looking like this, maybe Orochimaru developed some special ninjutsu? But... this scar reminds me of a person."
Hatake Sakumo walked back with the ANBU ninjas, his expression slightly pondered, then he laughed dumbly and shook his head.
Impossible, Yu Ye is just that old. Although he is also on this battlefield, his strength is definitely not up to this level.
He had a thorough understanding of Yu Ye's power, and it had only been a few short months.
Well, it was probably Orochimaru who did it.
I am already certain in my heart.
Orochimaru, on the surface, is an elite jounin, but secretly he has another identity, that is, one of the ANBU captains!
…
Rain Hidden Village, Konoha Camp.
After Hatake Sakumo left, Danzo temporarily took charge of everything. He was the Hokage's assistant and his status was originally higher than Hatake Sakumo.
At this moment, a masked root ninja appeared in front of Danzo, half-kneeling on the ground, and said: "Danzo-sama, an ANBU ninja has returned."
"Well, let them in."
Danzo nodded. Almost all the ANBU ninjas in the camp were taken away by Hatake Sakumo, so he naturally had to handle the matter.
Soon, Naito, Yamazaka Haizuki, and Asama Sana walked in.
Back at the camp, because the captain Guren Gueklight was dead, Naito didn't know how to hand over the task, so he decided to come directly to Hatake Sakumo.
However, what he didn't expect was that the person sitting in the headquarters was not Hatake Sakumo, but Danzo.
The route Hatake Sakumo took was slightly different from the route they took back, just staggered.
"Why is there one person missing? Who is your captain?"
Danzo looked at Naito and the others and frowned slightly. Because he was wearing a mask and Naito's figure no longer looked like a child, he didn't recognize them for a while.
"Our captain Yueguang Honglian has died in the line of duty."
Sana Asama took a deep breath and answered Danzo's question.
Danzo was slightly surprised.
Moonlight Red Lotus? !
Danzo is the Hokage's assistant. Although the ANBU is directly under the Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, he still has a basic understanding of the ANBU's deployment.
"The captain is dead. He must have encountered a very critical situation. I didn't expect the three of you to escape unscathed. That's good."
Danzo nodded first, then looked at Naito.
He didn't know it before, but now he knows that this is Yuesuan Guren's eighth team, so he can naturally recognize Yu Ye at a glance.
Despite wearing a mask.
After his eyes flickered for a few times, Danzo stood up calmly and said calmly: "You three, follow me."
Asama Sana and Yamanaka Haino were about to respond, but Naito suddenly spoke.
"I'm sorry, Danzo-sama, but you have no right to order us directly."
"Um?!"
Danzo's eyes instantly became sharp, he looked at Naito and said coldly: "Really?"
"Yes, we are ANBU ninjas and belong directly to Hokage-sama. Except for the captain and Hokage-sama, even Danzo-sama has no right to transfer."
Naito responded calmly to Danzo.
Just kidding, Danzo wants to take the three of them away, who knows where!
Following Danzo is nonsense!
Danzo snorted coldly, with a frosty face, and said: "The Hokage is not here. As the Hokage's assistant, I can temporarily take over the Hokage's duties. Are you trying to disobey me?"
In an instant, Danzo felt a faint aura coming over him.
But now Naito is not afraid of Danzo at all.
"I need to see Hokage-sama's orders."
Naito looked at Danzo calmly, neither humble nor arrogant.
At this time, if Asama Sana and Yamanaka Hiroyuki still couldn't see the situation clearly, they wouldn't have to be ANBU ninjas.
Obviously, Naito and Danzo have conflicts.
Danzo narrowed his eyes and stared at Naito, feeling a little angry in his heart.
The first few times, Sarutobi Hiruzen blocked him, but now Naito actually dares to confront him head-on!
A mere brat, does he think that by joining ANBU, he can completely ignore him as the Hokage's assistant
No matter how talented he is, he is just a brat who has not grown up.
"presumptuous!"
Danzo looked at Yu Ye coldly and snorted coldly.
Whoosh! !
The next moment, several masked root ninjas appeared in the field, surrounding the three of Naito.
