Task status: Not completed.
A hundred men.
Looking at the updated tasks on the panel, Huang murmured to himself, a strange sense of pride welling up within him.
"Then, I'll come and get it!"
He muttered to himself as he boarded the ship.
The letter in my hand was also reduced to ashes in the flames.
.......
.......
at the same time.
In the distant Hidden Leaf Village, inside the familiar Hokage's office.
'hiss. '
'call.'
Hiruzen Sarutobi held his pipe in his right hand, exhaling tobacco in a muffled manner, while flipping through intelligence reports with his left hand, his expression growing increasingly impatient.
'none!'
'none!!'
'none!!!'
There was absolutely no trace of that person!
The mighty Konoha, with its numerous secret police units spread across various powerful factions, couldn't even find a trace of a mere kid!
And this situation lasted for a full three months!
How can this be?
What kind of joke is this?
His expression grew increasingly strange, his aged face etched with embarrassment.
This feeling permeated the entire room.
The oppressive atmosphere was almost overwhelming!
"You underestimated that guy after all, Hiruzen!"
A cold, low rebuke reached my ears, seemingly carrying a hint of mockery.
Such direct words caused the white-haired old man to squint slightly.
The words, "I am the Hokage, it's not your place to tell me what to do," were stuck in his throat, and he almost exploded.
However, he ultimately swallowed those words that could have ignited a scene, after all, it was he who had lifted the ban ahead of schedule.
Now is definitely not the time to argue.
What intelligence does Root have?
Hiruzen Sarutobi put down his pipe, his gaze gradually calming down, though a sense of unease lingered in his heart.
As the Hokage, he couldn't even command that special forces unit!
Which village's "shadow" will exhibit this behavior?
When the root was mentioned, Danzo Shimura's single exposed eye trembled violently.
His life's work!
Most of his efforts were buried on that night of genocide!
Now, this old man actually has the nerve to mention it so casually?
"No."
He replied indignantly.
However, this schemer clearly knew his limits and quickly added:
There is no news of him within the other four major countries.
"As for Amegakure, you know how xenophobic Hanzo is. The entire Amegakure does not welcome outsiders. I don't need to say more, do I?"
A tense atmosphere began to rise.
"Do you think that little guy might have already died somewhere?"
"After all, his body was severely damaged, and even ice-style chakra could not be found in his body."
"In addition, he also awakened the Sharingan. Although its strategic significance is not as great as the Byakugan, it is still a bloodline limit that various forces covet."
Mitomon Yan suddenly spoke up, his words filled with speculation and uncertainty.
Indeed, it would be quite difficult for a young man from a fallen noble family to escape the eyes and ears of Konoha.
It should be noted that even Itachi's figure has occasionally appeared in intelligence reports over the past few months.
The two most recent ones were the Land of Hot Water and the Land of Water.
"not that simple."
"impossible!"
Two voices of rejection suddenly rang out from Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura.
Actually, they didn't pay much attention to the little guy going out at first.
It wasn't just because they themselves were preoccupied with the appearance of 'Uchiha Madara' and the news of the attack on Kusagakure.
The most important point is: you can run away from the monk, but you can't run away from the temple.
The little guy's clansmen and 'Reverse Scale' are still in Konoha, so where can he hide?
However, three months of silence made them realize that things were not going well.
The so-called journey to the Land of Rain, the so-called search for Itachi's whereabouts, the Anbu have practically turned the entire border upside down, but they haven't found any trace of him!
"Could Uchiha Ara have already secretly colluded with Hanzo?"
"Danzo, you should know that person best."
Koharu's words were sinister.
After all, such speculation is not impossible.
Upon hearing this, Danzo Shimura's expression faltered slightly, but he quickly regained his composure.
As expected, Hiruzen told the two old men about his past actions.
"It's highly unlikely."
"If it were Uchiha Fugaku, that would be somewhat possible."
"As for Huang, he doesn't have that kind of ability yet!"
Danzo's words and expression were somewhat contemptuous.
However, it continued to supplement its evidence with concrete evidence:
"Although Hanzo the Salamander is a powerful figure, he is too suspicious. He has guards on duty 24 hours a day. Not even an insect could easily get close to him, let alone a human."
"It took me a lot of effort to get that old guy to agree to cooperate."
"With the Uchiha clan as it is now, there is absolutely no way they could get in touch with them."
"Arrogance and suspicion are the reasons why that guy can only ever remain in Amegakure."
He spoke with great certainty, which aligned with the entire ninja world's objective understanding of that being.
"Moreover, if we can't find him outside, then we should force him to come out."
"Don't tell me you really wiped out all the surveillance systems you deployed within the Uchiha clan."
Danzo Shimura lowered his one eye slightly, and a cruel smile appeared on his lips.
This is his specialty.
Upon hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression immediately stiffened.
"?"
The one-eyed old man, who had not received a response for a long time, suddenly froze.
"You didn't really remove all the surveillance equipment used against the Uchiha clan, did you?"
His voice became low and lacked confidence.
When did this old fox, who had been fighting with him for half his life, become so straightforward?
Does he want to win over the next generation of Uchiha? To cultivate the Will of Fire from a young age?
Don't be so naive, okay?
"In fact, it was Uchiha Ara who personally led the demolition."
"Before the proposal is put forward."
"Not one left."
Hiruzen Sarutobi said in a muffled voice, picking up the pipe that had been placed on the table again.
He was clearly a little frustrated.
I never imagined that one day I would need to use those surveillance cameras again.
After all, that clan wouldn't have any decent fighting force for several years.
"Ah"
Danzo Shimura responded with a sarcastic snort.
"Let's be more direct then."
"That little girl named Uchiha Izumi, doesn't she often carry out D-rank missions in the village?"
"In your clan, there seems to be a pair of young brothers who also had a conflict with Uchiha Ara because of that girl, right?"
