In Konoha, your attributes double every day!

Twenty minutes later.

A group of ANBU members were eagerly waiting, and Hiruzen Sarutobi's mentality gradually began to explode.

Bang! Bang!

At this moment, Han Guang and Lin finally arrived.

"Han Guang! Tell me your reason for being late." As soon as he entered the door, Hiruzen Sarutobi questioned him.

"Huh? I'm not late." Han Guang said seriously.

"You said you weren't late?" Hiruzen Sarutobi stared wide-eyed, wondering if he had misheard.

I, the Hokage, have been waiting for you for twenty minutes, and you say you're not late?

"Yeah! I rushed to the Dark Side base as soon as I heard about the assembly. Who knew we'd be assembling here?" Han Guang spread his hands.

Then he added, "And no one from the secret service notified me to assemble; it was my teacher who notified me."

Han Guang finished speaking.

A group of secret agents were dumbfounded.

Hiruzen Sarutobi fell into deep thought.

On the surface, this reason seems quite reasonable.

So what were they waiting for during those twenty minutes?

"々｀ Return to the team." Hiruzen Sarutobi waved his hand, deciding not to hold it against him.

After all, he didn't have a suitable reason.

Next, the Dark Division's mission began.

"Your mission is to hunt down the traitor Orochimaru!"

"The squad order at the front remains unchanged. Squad 9 will also maintain its previous squad order for the time being."

"This pursuit mission will be carried out in small, dispersed teams. Once Orochimaru's trail is discovered, send a signal immediately."

After Hiruzen Sarutobi finished assigning the tasks, the several ANBU squads left one after another.

Only Class 9 remained.

"Huh? Why are you still here?" Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned.

"Where are our ANBU uniforms? Where are our masks?" Han Guang asked.

"Because of the different body types, your clothing has not yet been made."

Han Guang: "???"

Without equipment, they're still called the Dark Guard?

Who has ever seen an ANBU member who doesn't wear a black robe or a mask?

"Hey! Han Guang, let's go first," Uzuki Yugao whispered a reminder.

“Yeah, it’s okay if we don’t have clothes. We should have some next time.” Lin also tugged at Han Guang’s sleeve.

"But why does Yamato have it?" Red Bean pointed at the little devil Yamato and raised a different opinion.

"Even kids have it, but we don't." Kakashi's tone was rather cold, as if expressing dissatisfaction.

Yamato, dressed in the uniform of the Dark Guard, trembled.

He really wanted to explain: This is the clothing of the Root, not the Dark Division!

At last.

Han Guang summarized the opinions of Class 9.

"You, a Hokage, won't even give us our clothes, yet you expect us to go on missions?"

The words fell.

The entire hall fell silent!

Chapter Ninety-Four: A Cold Glimpse of Overbearing Aura! Orochimaru Digging a Hole!

Hokage's office.

Danzo pushed open the door and walked in.

As soon as he entered, he heard Han Guang questioning Hiruzen Sarutobi face to face.

"Good job!"

Danzo was overjoyed.

Han Guang offended Hiruzen, so wouldn't his opportunity have arrived?

Seeing Hiruzen's face darken, Danzo quickly stepped forward to provide an assist.

"Hiruzen, that's where you went wrong~~"

"Class 9 joined the Anbu yesterday, but they still don't even have Anbu uniforms today."

Danzo's meddling diverted Hiruzen Sarutobi's attention.

"Danzo, what do you think?"

"How about this, let them wear the Root's clothing first," Danzo thoughtfully offered a solution.

Hiruzen Sarutobi stared at Danzo, seeing through the other's little scheme.

Wearing clothing that covers the base of the legs?

You're practically telling them to join the root.

Without thinking, Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately thought of the problem he was currently facing.

If I scold Han Guang, will it cause dissatisfaction in Class 9?

If this happens, and Danzo tries to mislead us further, will Team 690 leave the Anbu and join the Root Corps instead?

This is a rather serious problem.

Thinking of this, he took a deep breath and calmed himself down.

"Han Guang, you two go and make preparations. The costumes will be ready soon."

Class 9 has left.

As they walked out of the Hokage Building, the group was filled with admiration for Han Guang.

"Han Guang, you were really too bold just now." Lin's eyes lit up, captivated by Han Guang's domineering aura.

If there weren't other people present, she would have wanted to merge with Han Guang immediately.

"I was so scared just now, I thought we were going to be punished." Uzuki Yugao said with lingering fear.

She stole a glance at Han Guang, her heart filled with turmoil.

"How dare you talk to the Hokage like that?" Anko pouted, her gaze lingering on Han Guang.

This man is worth conquering.

"Senior Han Guang is mighty!" Yamato shouted, his eyes filled with admiration.

This incident gave the group a deeper understanding of Han Guang's audacity.

"Aren't you afraid the Hokage will cause you trouble?" Kakashi suddenly asked.

"I'm in the right, who am I afraid of?"

Han Guang spoke calmly, his expression serene.

Kakashi was speechless, having been unwittingly tricked by Han Guang once again.

Half an hour later.

The Ninth Squad's ANBU uniforms and masks arrived, along with a scroll, which was also handed to Han Guang.

"As for the code name, 'Cold Light,' we'll decide on it after we get back from this mission."

The ANBU gave a brief instruction and then vanished in a flash.

This manhunt is codenamed 'Snake Hunt'. The scroll contains information about Orochimaru's recent whereabouts.

However, these messages are very disorganized, and some are even fake news.

This requires them to carefully distinguish between them.

After finishing reading the scroll, Class 9 set off from the village entrance.

Along the way, the group discussed the clues.

"Orochimaru was in the Land of Waves three days ago, how come he went to the Land of Grass two days ago?" Kakashi was speechless.

"There's another clue: a ninja saw Orochimaru in the Land of Rice Fields two days ago," Rin added.

"The Cloud Ninja claim that Orochimaru attacked them two days ago," Uzuki Yugao echoed.

"The Iwa ninja said the same thing! They said Orochimaru attacked the Iwa ninja." Anko pouted.
