Konoha: Naruto, trained by Aizen

“This…” Lee Locke frowned, somewhat displeased, and retorted, “A partner is someone you can entrust your back to, someone you can trust.”

"Entrust your back?" Upon hearing this, Aburame Neri's beautiful eyebrows furrowed, and a hint of mockery flashed in her eyes.

She stood up and said coldly, "Foolish idea. As a ninja, you should prioritize the mission. So-called camaraderie is unreliable."

After saying that, she walked towards the room.

"That guy!!" Rock Lee was furious and suddenly stood up, wanting to chase after him and find out what was going on, but was stopped by Naruto's group.

"Naruto, why are you stopping me? Do you want to cooperate with such a heartless person?" Rock Lee's eyes were full of confusion.

Naruto smiled and shook his head, saying something profound:

“She grew up in the roots, so her way of thinking is naturally different from ours. But these things can be changed later in life, can’t they?”

He looked with a gentle smile toward the room of the oil maiden Nelly.

Girls are often more emotionally sensitive than boys.

There's still a long time ahead.

Chapter 131 For Peace, Killing Is Necessary

Back in her room, Neri, the oil maiden, lay on her bed, staring at the white ceiling, her thoughts drifting further and further away.

"To entrust someone's back to someone, to be trustworthy... how ridiculous." She muttered to herself, but Naruto's gentle smile and magnetic voice unconsciously surfaced in her mind.

If it were him, perhaps it would be possible?

No.

Ninjas are supposed to be emotionless.

All you need to do is complete the task.

The avocado Nerei's eyes regained their coldness.

Aburame Neri unconsciously thought of a former teammate.

At that time, that teammate was also someone Danzo valued, which is why he joined the team.

That teammate, like Rock Lee, shared the same theories about comrades.

On their way to carry out another mission, they were attacked by the enemy and found themselves in danger.

In the end, Nereid and her teammate managed to escape.

But foolishly, his teammates insisted on re-entering the danger zone to save him.

Unable to persuade her, Aburame Nerei left alone and returned to Konoha.

In the end, that teammate died.

It died a horrible death, devoured directly by the opponent's summoned beast.

The bodies that were dragged back were even mutilated.

From then on, Aburame Nerei was very resistant to the original members of the Root.

She didn't want to find herself in danger because of her teammates one day.

but.

This is a good mission: to eliminate a rogue ninja organization. There must be Jonin among them.

Although Naruto's team had Root Jonin following them in the shadows, they would never intervene unless it was a critical moment.

So, barring any unforeseen circumstances, Naruto will get injured.

Then I will be able to obtain his body tissue, which is a valuable material for experimental research.

Thinking of this possibility, Nerei, the oil woman, couldn't help but smile.

......

In the courtyard outside, Naruto and Rock Lee were still grilling and eating fish.

He pondered quietly in his heart.

The defected Chunin organization should have Jonin appearing, barring any unforeseen circumstances. This is my first battle since joining Root, and I must complete the mission perfectly.

If you're lucky, you might be able to harvest some human subjects for experimentation.

Of course, it would be best to obtain the cell tissue of Aburame Nerei.

He was very interested in bodies that could raise insects.

I really want to find an opportunity to savor it properly.

Inside and outside the house, Naruto and Aburame Nene were both lost in their own thoughts.

The rogue ninja organization in the distance was completely unaware that their nightmare was about to begin.

.......

Day two.

Naruto's team, fully prepared, began their journey towards the mission location.

They were all dressed in clothing suitable for falsifying their identities.

Naruto is a businessman, Rock Lee is his subordinate, and Nene Aburame is his maid.

The three of them, acting like movie stars, were completely flawless.

"According to intelligence, the Land of Snow is currently embroiled in war, and the rogue ninjas from the Land of Snow within the organization will certainly provide information to other ninja villages."

"The Snow Village is quite strong, and other ninja villages still want a piece of its territory. What we need to do is find that rogue ninja and use him to pinpoint the rogue ninja organization." Naruto's tone carried a hint of coldness.

"First, we need to enter the hidden underground tavern, where many rogue ninjas share information and complete transactions."

According to them, they came to a neighboring town.

The streets remained desolate, with only a handful of pedestrians hurrying by.

These intelligence taverns are extremely cautious, and every ninja who enters is given a unique code name.

These taverns do not accept newcomers unless they are recommended by someone or have a pass.

The so-called pass can be stolen from other ninjas.

Naruto's team's target was naturally the ninjas wandering around this town.

This approach, though cruel, aligns well with the Roots' worldview.

To ensure the success of the mission, any means are acceptable.

Since it cannot be guaranteed that every ninja has a pass, multiple hunts are necessary.

Lee Locke was very resistant to this method.

In his words, "The mission is important, but we can't just kill innocent people indiscriminately. I'm sure there are other ways."

In response, the oil woman Nelly retorted sarcastically, "Then you should come up with a solution. In my opinion, this method is the most efficient and simplest."

“But doing that would be too cruel.” Lee Rock sighed, his mind still stuck in the naivety he had right after graduation.

Naruto smiled slightly and said gently, "Kindness is indeed a good quality, but these rogue ninja organizations are inherently cruel. They only care about profit. They will leak all the information they know to other ninja villages, which will bring war and killing."

"If we abandon our current plan out of kindness, we will undoubtedly need to spend more time developing a new one, which will prolong the time it takes to complete our mission. During this period, they will likely transmit new intelligence, bringing with them continuous war and widespread suffering."

"Little Lee, kindness is precious, but don't let kindness turn into laughable benevolence. What we are doing is for future peace. For this goal, what does it matter if a few ninjas are sacrificed?"

"I understand, Naruto!!" Rock Lee looked at Naruto with eyes full of trust.

It turned out to be the case.

Everything Naruto has done has been for the sake of peace.

He was willing to do such cruel things for the sake of peace.

He was a man who truly cared about peace.

As his most capable subordinate, I must closely follow in his footsteps.

Naruto's words made Aburame Nene look at him with new respect.

I never expected Naruto to have such awareness.

His ambitions were so lofty.

For peace...

The oil maiden Nerei pondered her ambitions.

But he was shocked to discover that he had no dreams or ambitions.

Compared to Naruto, I feel like a puppet who can only complete tasks.

"Let's go, I'll do it." In the sunlight, Naruto revealed a gentle smile, his eyes filled with the pain and helplessness of harming innocent people.

For a moment, the oil maiden Neri was completely mesmerized.

Naruto quickly found his target.

A ninja whose face is obscured by a brown coat.

Once the ninja reached a deserted area, Naruto stepped forward, easily slashed the ninja's neck with his kunai, and deftly searched the ninja's body, quickly finding a pass.

He then hid the body and looked at Lee Rock's oil maiden, Nere.

The oil woman, Neri, remained expressionless, but countless insects crawled out of her body, slithering up to the ground and disappearing into the dark underground pipes.

Before long, the insects returned in a large group, bringing back a pass.

For the oil woman Neri, murder and robbery were just everyday occurrences.

Ultimately, all the pressure fell on Rock Lee's side.

With Naruto's help, he identified his target, stepped forward, and broke the man's neck with a dazzling Leaf Whirlwind kick.

Under Naruto's helpless gaze, he found the pass and fled like a thief.

With her eyelids drooping, Aburame Neri thought to herself, "He knows nothing about stealth and has no sense of beauty in killing. He will be a Root fanatic."

I started a group
