"The previous standards? What were those standards?" Obito was completely bewildered.

Are there even standards for escort missions? How come I didn't know that?

"Kakashi, tell him." Han Guang gestured.

"Cough cough."

Kakashi cleared his throat and lowered his voice.

"The standard is to observe calmly from the sidelines, and retreat immediately upon being attacked!"

At this point, he added, "If Danzo has the advantage, we'll stand by and watch. If Danzo has the disadvantage, we'll take his body back with us."

As Kakashi finished speaking.

Obito was completely dumbfounded.

What is the point of escorting someone under these mission standards?

Is it just about simply being there for someone?

Obito was certain that this standard must have been set by Han Guang, and could not possibly have been set by anyone else.

Only Han Guang would have such bizarre thoughts.

"By the way, Kakashi! Inform the rest of Team 9 about this standard."

Han Guang gave a word of advice.

Kakashi flashed to Anko's side and began to convey the central idea of this mission.

"what?"

Hongdou exclaimed in surprise and quickly covered her mouth.

Then, Lin also cried out in surprise, followed by Uzuki Yugao.

Finally, Yamato heard this central idea and trembled with fear.

"It's over, Lord Danzo is doomed this time."

On the road.

Danzo, who was on his way, heard the noise behind him and frowned.

"This is the discipline of the Dark Division? It's nowhere near as good as my Root Division!"

Feeling a pang of emotion, he looked around.

Then, Danzo was stunned.

Where are the secret agents?

Looking around in confusion, he turned to see.

He saw a group of secret agents walking behind him, several meters away.

"Is this how you escort them?" Danzo roared angrily.

It was truly an eye-opening experience for him.

Is this formation a case of the hidden forces protecting themselves, or themselves protecting the hidden forces?

Are you guys just playing around here?

"Lord Danzo! This is how we Anbu operate!" Ruri (White Zetsu) said calmly.

"What did you say?" Danzo raised his voice.

He was the Hokage's assistant and the leader of Root, yet he was being mocked by a mere Anbu vice-captain?

"Lord Danzo, we belong to the Hokage, so stop your nagging." Another Anbu member spoke up, his tone even more arrogant.

"How dare you!" Danzo's anger surged.

But then he forced himself to calm down.

Don't be impulsive.

The fact that these people from the Dark Division are so openly mocking me means someone must be instigating them.

"Hiruzen Sarutobi! I never knew you had such thoughts hidden inside."

Danzo knew without a doubt that this was Hiruzen's doing. His purpose was to prevent him from communicating with the Anbu and to avoid the Anbu defecting.

Next.

Danzo walked alone at the front with a sullen face.

Meanwhile, a dozen or so members of the secret service were positioned ten meters apart, hanging behind them.

It's approaching noon.

An accident happened.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.

A dozen or so ninjas dressed in black robes rushed out of the forest and blocked their way.

Upon seeing this, Danzo frowned and subconsciously turned around.

Thump, thump, thump.

Suddenly, the group of secret agents turned around and ran away without looking back.

"you!!!"

Danzo became increasingly wary.

Now that things have come to this, how could he not realize that he had been betrayed?

"Han Guang!" He shouted to the fleeing members of the Dark Guard, but Han Guang ran faster than anyone else.

"These bastards."

Danzo was so angry he gritted his teeth, wishing he could chop up these ANBU members.

"Danzo, today is your death day." The leader of the black-robed men spoke coldly, his eyes transforming into Sharingan.

"Uchiha Fugaku! Do you think wearing a black robe can hide your Sharingan?"

Danzo spoke in a deep voice, assuming a fighting stance.

He must escape back.

Once he returns to the village, he will make the Uchiha and Anbu pay a heavy price.

Kilometers away.

Beside the stream.

Han Guang stood with his hands in his pockets, awaiting the outcome of the battle.

Obito quietly ran over.

"Han Guang, that black-robed leader looks kind of familiar to me."

"Oh? Who do you think it is?" Han Guang asked with a smile.

"Could it be the head of our clan?" Obito guessed.

“You guessed right.” Han Guang nodded.

"Huh? This..."

Obito looked sullen.

Since the leader is the clan chief, the other dozen or so people must be members of his own clan.
