The Master of Konoha's Legacy

"Remember, don't kill these people all at once. Kill them one by one in front of Uchiha Shisui."

If possible, use torture methods, the more cruel the better.

At the same time, you must protect Uchiha Shisui from dying in this war.

The reason for sending Kakashi was that his clone was still teaching Nagato and didn't have time to go to Kirigakure to arrange these things.

Moreover, while Uchiha Tonan had complete confidence in his clones, he lacked faith in the Hidden Mist ninjas.

"Understood, sir," Kakashi replied in a deep voice.

Uchiha Tonan tapped the table lightly with his fingers twice, tentatively saying, "If you have any questions, you can ask me."

Kakashi replied calmly, "No."

Uchiha Tonan was quite satisfied with Kakashi's reaction.

He immediately spoke in a deep, meaningful tone: "Konoha urgently needs enough top-tier combat power."

This task was a unanimous decision made at the top level.

Strict confidentiality is required.

With a single, casual remark, Uchiha Tonan had already shifted the blame to the Konoha leadership.

If I explain this now, and it's difficult to shift the blame later, then I won't explain anymore.

Having said that, Uchiha Tonan leisurely stood up and beckoned to Kakashi, saying:

"Come on, it's time to go get the gift I promised you."

Kakashi followed Uchiha Tonan out of the office and onto the bridge connecting the office to the circular corridor.

As soon as Uchiha Tonan appeared, the swarming Anbu members gathered in the plaza all knelt on one knee and shouted loudly:

"Greetings, Lord Tunan."

Uchiha Tonan placed one hand horizontally in front of him and the other behind his back, and said in a deep voice:

"you......

He is a hero, a hero who dedicates himself silently without seeking fame or fortune.

As Uchiha Tonan spoke, silence fell below.

Uchiha Tonan continued in a deep voice:

"The purpose of the Anbu is to protect the stability of Konoha."

Therefore, we hide in the darkness, spending our days in the midst of killing.

My purpose as the leader of the Anbu is not only to protect Konoha, but also to protect you and your families from harm.

I think many people here actually know in their hearts that even if the Will of Fire burns throughout the entire Hidden Leaf Village.

But there are still corners that the firelight cannot reach.

You should all know more or less about the former captain of the Dark Guard, the famous White Fang of Konoha.

Now I'll tell you, according to the latest intelligence, the reason why Konoha's White Fang committed suicide was more because he accidentally got caught up in the power struggle at the top.

He was a victim of the power struggle.

His death is a regret, a disgrace to Konoha.

As long as I, Uchiha Tonan, am alive, I will not allow the members of the Anbu to suffer injustice and be persecuted by corrupt power.

Even if the matter has passed, we will never tolerate it.

Today, I will reopen this old case and seek justice for our predecessors in the secret service.

The members of the Dark Division are all highly trained; once they put on their masks, they transform into emotionless tools.

Faced with Uchiha Tonan's words, these ANBU members naturally did not respond as loudly as the villagers and ordinary ninjas.

However, Uchiha Tonan noticed that the auras of most people below were somewhat disordered.

No human being can be completely devoid of emotions.

No matter what the situation, people always consider things from their own perspective.

The identity of Konoha's White Fang as an ANBU member makes it easy for these ANBU ninjas to identify with him.

After all, who among these people wouldn't want to become the legendary White Fang of Konoha, feared by all the major ninja villages?

At the same time, no one wants to end up like White Teeth.

Beside him, Kakashi stood silently, but his thumb was trembling slightly.

A few breaths later, a dignified shout came from within the Dark Guard.

"Set off."

[Chapter 416. All-Out Attack on the Roots]

With a command from Uchiha Tonan.

Hundreds of ANBU ninjas wearing animal masks emerged from the mountain's belly, turning into streaks of black shadows and disappearing into the forest, heading towards the roots.

Despite the large number of people, the entire operation was conducted in complete silence.

Four bodyguards from all corners of the country took the lead.

Uchiha Tonan, with Kakashi in tow, strolled leisurely at the very back.

Twenty minutes later.

Beneath a giant dead tree in a secluded forest terrain training ground in Konoha Village.

A Root ninja wearing a fox mask and another wearing a dog mask stood guard silently.

The two of them kept their hands in a hand seal position, judging from the constant chakra fluctuations emanating from their bodies.

These two people should be sensory ninjas, and they maintain a state of sensory awareness at all times.

Suddenly, the two people who had been standing still like mechanical puppets turned their heads to face one side.

"Four unfamiliar chakra auras, they seem quite powerful, and they are heading this way."

The Root ninja wearing the fox mask had a slightly childish voice, clearly indicating his young age, and his words also contained a hint of unease.

Another Root ninja wearing a dog-face mask calmly said:

"They are not enemies. I recognize the auras of three of them; they are senior members of the Dark Division."

Perhaps there is some important intelligence.

"You stay here and continue to sense things. I'll go and talk to them."

Having said that, he prepared to set off to greet them.

Just then, the ninja wearing the fox mask suddenly cried out:

"Wait a minute! Something's wrong."

"Ok?"

Seeing the newcomer's panic, the ninja in the dog-face mask immediately stopped and sensed him again.

Upon realizing this, the dog-faced ninja's heart sank.

As I sensed it, more and more chakra entered my perception range, some familiar and some unfamiliar.

And the number is still increasing.

How can there be so many people? Has something serious happened?

The dog-faced ninja turned around and said in a deep voice:

"Go in and inform Lord Danzo of the situation. I'll stay here and keep watch."

The fox-masked ninja nodded repeatedly, then turned and ran towards the withered tree.

His body disappeared into the dead tree trunk.

Clearly, this is not an ordinary dead tree, but the entrance to the root base camp.

The entrance is simply concealed by special illusion magic.

After a short while, the four great bodyguards from the north and south of Uchiha Tonan were the first to appear in front of the withered tree.

The Root ninja with the dog-face mask recognized the four Dark Guards with just a glance.

This is the insignia of the secret guards of the Dark Division...

The dog-faced ninja bowed to the four guards and said:

"My lords, what brings you to the Root Clan?"

The bodyguard codenamed "Sky" glanced at the distant dense forest and, seeing that the follow-up personnel had not yet caught up, decided to wait there for a while.

After all, there were a large number of Root ninjas inside, and the four of them dared not recklessly rush in.

"Tian" spoke in a businesslike tone:

"We are carrying out a special mission for the leader to capture criminals from Konoha. Please make way."

Upon hearing this, the dog-faced ninja bowed again and said:

"If we wish to enter the Root, please show us Lord Danzo's secret order."

As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere suddenly became heavy.

"Whoosh~ Whoosh~ Whoosh~......."

At the same time, figures appeared behind the four guards.

They were clearly well-trained members of the secret service.

As time passed, the dog-faced mask felt an invisible pressure that made it hard to breathe.

I secretly said:

The situation is too strange. These ANBU members are acting aggressively. Could it be that two departments of Konoha are about to go to war?
