Chapter 271 Leave No One Alive

Inside the Jonin class's assessment room.

Ye Guang stood behind Nara Deer Antlers, watching Aries undergo the test.

"Now we'll begin the interview. I'm going to ask you three questions. Don't hesitate, just give the first answer that comes to mind. Hesitation will be considered a failure," said Nara Kazumi.

"If the village sent you to infiltrate the Bear Country for thirty years, what would you do?"

Aries immediately said, "There are no important figures in the Bear Country worth having an undercover agent infiltrate for thirty years, unless the Bear Country is completely controlled."

Upon hearing this, Nara Shikano immediately turned to look at the fox, remembering that the fox had used the same line of thinking when answering the question before.

Aries continued, "I will create a cocoon puppet show inside the castle of the daimyo of the Bear Country."

Important figures within the castle tower of the Bear Country were transformed into cocoons. Their skin appeared normal, but the flesh beneath had been devoured and replaced by parasitic insects.

On the surface, the city of Tian Shou is full of people, but in reality, they are all walking cocoons.

"Wait for Konoha to give the order..."

"Stop!" Nara Shikaku felt that the Anbu were going too far.

This answer is second only to the fox's initial suggestion of making the Queen Mother of the Bear Kingdom his lover.

The other nine Jonin all turned to look, wondering if this was the decision-making tendency of Konoha's Anbu.
Ye Guang nodded repeatedly, very pleased.

As expected of an Aries who has followed him for a long time, his thinking is in sync with Ye Guang's, and his methods are outstanding.

Nara Kaguya interrupted Aries's answers to the next two questions.

If it were just an extreme case, that would be one thing, but Aries uses bugs to solve every task, and the scene he described is somewhat nauseating.

Aries easily passed the subsequent battle assessment.

Aries is 19 years old this year, and these past two years have been a period of rapid growth in strength.

After the review was completed, Ye Guang and Huang Quan led Bai Yang into the Hokage's office.

The Third Hokage personally imparted the Will of Fire to Aries, who said he would spare no effort to sacrifice the last Parasite for the mission of the Dark Side.

After finishing Aries's Jonin promotion, Yako led Kashiwagi into Root.

There is a circular atrium at the base.

Below the hall is icy underground water, and on the water's surface is a cross-shaped bridge leading to different parts of the roots.

One of the directions leads to Danzo's office.

Yoru stood in the middle of the bridge, waiting for Danzo.

Danzo slowly emerged from the darkness and came into the beam of light shining down from the top of the ceiling.

Ye Guang spoke first: "Lord Danzo, the Hokage has decided to send me to the border of the Land of Rain to replace Lord Orochimaru."

"I wonder what instructions and arrangements Lord Danzo has for the investigation of the Uzumaki remnants."

Danzo looked at the fox and thought to himself, "Why didn't I discover the fox's talent back then? If I had recruited the fox into Root earlier, I wouldn't have been without anyone to use."

Danzo said, "Fox, you're also a veteran of the Anbu."

The annihilation of the Whirlpool Clan and the battle at Whirlpool Village were both part of your journey alongside the Yellow Dog Squad.

You should understand how much damage the remnants of the Uzumaki clan could cause to Konoha if they were allowed to gain power.

This time, on our journey to the Land of Rain, we must find the remnants of the Whirlpool Clan, preserve their brains, and bring them back, or their brains.

Leave no one alive.

Ye Guang said, "I understand, there won't be a single survivor."

Ye Guang thought to himself, "I don't know which side will be without any survivors, but there definitely won't be any survivors."

Danzo said, "Kui is in charge of intelligence. Once you go to the Land of Rain, Gui will tell you all the current information. This is a mission scroll. Once Gui sees this scroll, he will naturally cooperate with you."

It's wonderful that Gui is in the Land of Rain.

C emerged from the darkness behind Danzo and tossed him a scroll. Yakko caught the scroll, bowed to Danzo, and left the Root base.

After the fox left, Bing asked, "Lord Danzo, was it worth bringing Orochimaru back for the sake of the experiment?"

Danzo imagined the earth-shattering power of Wood Release and said, "It's worth it. From now on, we will fully cooperate with Orochimaru to advance the experiment."

C said, "Sir, the 50 children to be tested for the first injection experiment are ready."

These children all come from other villages and possess both Earth Release and Water Release talents.

"Sir, A says the mortality rate for the experiment will be very high. Should we collect the subjects for the next phase of the experiment ahead of schedule?"

Danzo said, "Let's see how these test subjects behave. If they all die, then we'll start looking for test subjects with the Senju bloodline."

Let's start with the women of the Senju clan who have married out. Their children also have half Senju blood. Married women change their surnames, so their disappearances won't immediately cause chaos.

"Now we'll begin selecting suitable targets; when the time comes, we'll swiftly and secretly capture the experimental subjects."

"I will arrange it as soon as possible, sir."

Danzo then asked, "How effective is the seal for eradicating the root of tongue-related calamities? Is the seal stable?"

Bing couldn't help but swallow hard; he too had been branded with the "Severing the Root of Tongue Disaster" mark by Danzo.

Before this, he was unaware that Danzo did not trust him.

He once thought he was Danzo's absolute confidant, but in the end he was just overthinking it.

Bing knew that Danzo wasn't asking about the seal that would sever the root of his tongue's calamity. He said:
"My lord, the four newly added official members of the Root have been completely controlled by the Seal of the Tongue Calamity."

The five people secretly sent into the Dark Guard can now be sealed without any problems.

Danzo said, "I suspect that someone in the Anbu has betrayed Konoha."

Bing's eyes gleamed with unease: "Is there a traitor within the secret service?"

Danzo said, "The Shimura clan, the root of the family, suffered a blow that was too precise and too ruthless."

Information about Root is top secret, and many Konoha ninjas are unaware that Konoha has Root.

Someone must have leaked Root intelligence to the remnants of the Vortex, which allowed them to strike Root with such precision.

Danzo paused for a moment, then said, "The Yellow Dog is skilled in Fire Release and also knows Wind Release..."

Danzo didn't continue, and Bing didn't dare to listen any longer. Bing quickly said, "Sarutobi Yu of the Sarutobi clan was also killed, so it couldn't have been Yellow Dog, right?"

Danzo didn't say anything; one can't be a vice-commander of the Anbu without being ruthless. Perhaps Sarutobi Yu's death was some kind of cover-up.
-
The full moon was like a silver plate.

Another full moon night has arrived.

In the latter half of the night, Nightlight left the Dark Guard base and wandered around the village wearing a mask.

After confirming that no one had noticed him, he entered the orphanage.

In the cramped director's office of the orphanage, next to Pharmacist Nono, there was a basket of clothes, and she was mending the holes in the children's clothes.

She loved the lively and energetic orphans; they brought much laughter to the orphanage. It was unavoidable that the clothes of such active children were easily torn.

Yakushi Nonou suddenly looked up and realized that someone had entered the barrier she had set up.

A figure appeared behind her.

Yagami peeked out first and saw Yakushi Nonou's bulging chest, saying, "You're lucky, you weren't wearing one of those super tight bras."

“I’m in an orphanage, so I don’t need to pretend.”

Yakushi Nonou put down her needlework, leaned forward, and graciously approached the fox.

After enjoying the unique tightness, Yako stroked Yakushi Nono's slender waist and asked, "Has Gui been marked with the seal of the 'Tongue-Twisting Curse'?"

"It's definitely engraved."

"That's good."
