Chapter 116 Main Tasks

When Zhang Ye and his group arrived at the foot of Yangang Mountain, there were only a dozen or so people there.

They all had injuries of varying degrees, and one of them even had his left hand severed.

"Zhang Ye, didn't you encounter any enemies?"

When Rope Tree saw Zhang Ye and his group arrive, he was shocked. Everyone who came here had been injured to some extent.

On the contrary, Zhang Ye and the others were completely unharmed, which surprised him greatly.

"We've encountered them!" Zhang Ye smiled and shrugged. "But the enemy is too weak; they can't harm us at all!"

"You guys are too lucky! We only encountered teams of Jonin, and it took us ages to escape from them, even..."

Rope Tree had a look of dejection on his face, clearly indicating that someone in their team had died.

“Zhang Ye!” Minato Namikaze’s golden, tousled hair stood out in the crowd, and his fair face was covered in dust.

Zhang Ye couldn't help but smile: "Minato!"

The three of them then sat together and discussed what they had encountered on the road.

During this time, more than a dozen Konoha ninjas arrived, more than half of whom were seriously injured.

Tsunade had no choice but to summon slugs to heal them.

"Quiet down, everyone!" Tsunade looked at the twenty-seven ninjas below with a serious expression.

Of the sixty ninjas, more than half are now dead.

When Zhang Ye and the others saw Tsunade speak, they stopped talking and looked up at her.

"This is our mission in the Land of Water!"

On the back of Tsunade's summoning beast, the slug, was a piece of A4-sized paper. Zhang Ye picked it up and looked at the densely written calligraphy on it, all of which were names.

"According to the intelligence that has been sent back, Kirigakure has already dispatched troops three days ago, sending out an vanguard to escort a batch of supplies. According to reliable sources, this batch of supplies consists of a large number of ninja tools and explosive tags. Judging from the timing, they will pass by Mount Akagi around 9 p.m. tonight!"

"Our mission is to ambush them here, which is why we have this surprise attack force. But we can't openly fight Kirigakure right now, so you all need to hand over your headbands!"

"This time we will split into two groups. One group's mission is to seize this batch of supplies at all costs, even if it is completely destroyed. The other group's mission is to go to the weapons forge established by Kirigakure in the Koya Mountains!"

"And your mission is to carry out a high-level ninja decapitation operation!"

As Tsunade spoke, she took a step forward, raised the paper in her hand, and addressed the people below.

"This is a intelligence report on the Kirigakure ninjas containing sealing techniques. They are all ninjas dispatched by Kirigakure to the Koyasan Forge. By injecting chakra into the sealing techniques after their names, we can reveal the enemy's information!"

"For every Mist Ninja you kill, you must change the status of the information above to 'dead'!"

Looking at the paper covered with dense calligraphy in his hand, Zhang Ye couldn't help but feel a headache coming on. Don't underestimate the abilities of the Konoha writers.

This contains information on at least several thousand Mist Ninja!

"According to our current intelligence, Kirigakure has dispatched a total of 216 Jonin, including 60 elite Jonin, 1896 Chunin, and nearly 9860 Genin to guard the forge and escort the troop, totaling more than 11,000 ninjas."

"After screening and sorting, forty-eight individuals have been selected as key targets, ten of whom are not ninjas!"

"Among them, the head of the Minazuki clan is Minazuki Eigetsu, the head of the Kaguya clan is Kaguya Toumi, and the head of the Hozuki clan is Hozuki Yasushi. These three are extremely powerful and have many guards around them. If you encounter them, you can run away immediately!"

"And your main targets are the remaining forty-five people!"

Finally, Tsunade looked around and said in a deep voice, "I hope you will act within your capabilities and not undertake any killing missions that exceed your own capacity. After all, you are all the future pillars of Konoha!"

Then everyone carefully examined the members listed on the paper, scrutinized the information, and occasionally whispered among themselves.

Minato Namikaze and Nawaki returned to their squad and discussed the intelligence with their teammates.

Zhang Ye and his group were no exception; now they had to memorize all the elite Jonin above them.

Tsunade then began assigning members to each team.

The first task that Zhang Ye and his two companions had to carry out was to stop the escorting troops from Wuyin Village.

According to reports, the escort team included five elite Jonin, more than twenty Jonin, and countless Chunin and Genin.

The sun set behind the mountains, and the bright moon gradually rose.

"Those who are blocking the escorting troops, come with me. The rest of you, stay with Orochimaru!"

Tsunade glanced at the sky, addressed the group, and then headed towards Mount Akagi.

Let's go!

Zhang Ye and Fu Yue followed closely behind, quickly leaping between the branches of the large tree.

"Xiao Ye, you must pay attention to your own safety in this battle, and don't do anything beyond your capabilities!"

Tsunade said to Zhang Ye in a deep voice, after all, they were now fellow disciples.

"Understood, Senior Sister!"

Of the team members, Zhang Ye only knew Ino-Shika-Cho; he didn't know any of the others.

After arriving at Chicheng Mountain, it would take about half an hour for the enemy's escort troops to arrive, as stated in the report.

"Hide!"

As soon as Tsunade gave the order, they all hid themselves, their eyes never leaving the only path that led through the area.

at the same time.

Another unit is heading towards Chicheng Mountain.

This was a mixed unit. Although the leaders were not wearing headbands, their clothing made it clear that they were.

This is an Uchiha ninja!

Behind them were many ninjas from Konoha who were not from the village. If Zhang Ye were here, he would definitely be able to recognize which side they belonged to.

Rain Ninja from Amegakure!

You have to understand that Amegakure and Konoha have fought several times. Logically speaking, the two sides should be enemies who hate each other. However, they are actually teammates in the same unit.

If the people of Konoha find out.

These Uchiha ninjas will surely be treated as rogue ninjas!

Suddenly, the leading Uchiha ninja stopped and took down a communication bird from the air.

After glancing at the information above, I destroyed it.

"Mount Akagi is just ahead. The people we need to deal with are there. Everyone, hurry up!" Uchiha Raise commanded the Uchiha members and Rain Ninja behind him.

A glint of light flashed in his eyes; he was finally able to kill him!

Chapter 117 Danzo's Conspiracy

two days ago.

This is the residence of the Uchiha clan leader in Konoha, within their clan's settlement.

Under the dim eaves, the lanterns emitted a faint light, swaying precariously in the breeze, as if they could be extinguished at any moment.

Beneath the lantern were two figures, their dark silhouettes, some long and some short, illuminated by the dim light of the lamp.

This is the innermost courtyard of the Uchiha clan, and there is no one around. It is a place where spies conduct dirty transactions.

The two people standing under the lantern were Danzo Shimura, the current Hokage, and Mukuro Uchiha, the current head of the Uchiha clan.

"Lord Danzo, didn't I say before that it's best if we don't have too much contact in private?" Uchiha Mukuro looked at Shimura Danzo with cold eyes. "If the Hokage finds out, it won't be easy to explain!"

He now wants to devour Danzo alive.

This guy dispatched quite a few young and powerful members of the Uchiha clan to the Land of Water for secret missions.

This mission was a death sentence. As the head of the Uchiha clan, how could Shimura Danzo, the instigator, not be furious that his own clan members were being forced to carry out such a mission?

"Have you forgotten that I can also send many of the people who have sinned against your Uchiha clan to the battlefield? What does it matter if a few young experts die? The benefits you gain far outweigh the losses!"

Danzo Shimura tucked his hands into his sleeves, a faint smile on his face.

"Hmph, so what? You sent our clan's most promising member, Uchiha Fugaku, to the battlefield!"

"I didn't come here to discuss these things with you, Zhang Ye. That brat who offended your Uchiha clan is there too!" Shimura Danzo looked at Uchiha Mukuro. "This is your chance!"

"Our chance, heh... isn't it your chance, Lord Danzo's chance?"

Uchiha Mukuro said coldly.

"This brat has improved very quickly this year. Aren't you Uchiha worried?"

Uchiha Mukuro narrowed his eyes, worried. How could he not be worried? He had sent assassins to kill Zhang Ye before, but each time it had been in vain.

In just one year, he went from being a useless loser in the ninja academy to a Jonin.

Even the most talented person in their family didn't advance this quickly.

And whether they can also receive credit for Zhang Ye's achievements on the battlefield.

If they wait for Zhang Ye to grow up, the Uchiha clan's future will be very difficult.

"Isn't Lord Danzo worried?" Uchiha Mukuro retorted. "I remember that originally there was only Orochimaru who could compete with you for the Hokage position, and now there's Zhang Ye as well. Aren't you worried?"

Danzo's eye twitched. Not worried? Who would believe that? He, Shimura Danzo, was determined to seize the Hokage position. Originally, he could deal with Orochimaru alone, but now there was another one, Zhang Ye, who was almost like a monster. This made him have to be wary.

"Worried? Of course I'm worried! This is our chance. If Zhang Ye becomes Hokage in the future, it will be a disaster for your Uchiha clan!" Shimura Danzo paused, narrowed his eyes, and revealed a chilling smile.

"Therefore, the two of us need to join forces!"

"Join forces? How exactly?" Uchiha Mukuro asked, looking at the evergreen tree in the courtyard with his hands behind his back.

"I have already contacted Hanzo, the leader of Amegakure. As long as you give the nod, he will send his elite troops to join your Uchiha clan in killing Zhang Ye!"

"And right now, Zhang Ye has Fugaku, the best man in the Uchiha clan, by his side. As long as we work together from the inside and outside, killing Zhang Ye will be a very simple matter. The only one who will be difficult to deal with is Orochimaru!"

Old fox!

Uchiha Mukuro cursed inwardly as he looked at the confident-looking Shimura Danzo.

If he agrees and the operation succeeds, the biggest beneficiary will be Shimura Danzo, and they will have merely eliminated an adversary who would pose a threat to them in the future.

Danzo looked at the hesitant Uchiha Mukuro and cursed inwardly before saying, "Don't forget what his surname is. His surname is Izayoi. If he knew how his father died, do you think he would let your Uchiha go?"
