Konoha: I was living a peaceful life, but was backstabbed by the system

Chapter 345: The Hidden Rock Village is Attacked

Sakumo nodded: "Okay Hokage, I will pay attention to the condition of the two children during this time."

Then he turned and left, and silence returned to the office.

After taking a look around here and finding that there was nothing serious, Qufeng prepared to go home.

There is no problem in entrusting ordinary official duties to puppets.

Just as Qu Feng was about to get up and leave, there was a hurried knock on the door.

This scared Qufeng who was about to run away, but he quickly adjusted himself and sat back in the chair.

"Enter."

The office door was pushed open, and Qufeng saw that it was Kato Dan. The Anbu chief came in person to report, so it must be some urgent matter.

After Duan walked in, he bowed to Qu Feng and said, "Report to Lord Hokage, there is information coming from the black market."

"Oh? What information?"

The so-called black market is a small intelligence organization composed of rebel ninjas from various villages. Although small, they are very well-informed and can be the first to know any disturbances in the ninja world.

Therefore, Konoha Village's intelligence organizations and Anbu often deal with them.

Kato Dan took out a small scroll from his waist bag and handed it to Qufeng.

Qu Feng took it, opened the scroll and began to read.

There was a slight smile on his face, but it gradually disappeared as he read, and his brow furrowed.

"The Iwagakure Village was also attacked?"

Duan nodded and said, "Yes, more than a dozen masked men attacked the Iwagakure Village last night. Many buildings were destroyed and a big hole was blown out of the gate."

Hearing Duan's answer, Qufeng was even more confused. These masked men first attacked Sand Village and then Iwagakure.

But they didn't steal any property, nor did they deal any fatal blows. It was like they were just having fun. What was the purpose of this?

"Has there been any news from the Iwagakure Village?"

Duan shook his head upon hearing this and said, "No, the Hidden Rock Village should still be in a panic and have no intention of caring about the outside world."

That's true. They were attacked last night, and now they must be busy stabilizing order and rebuilding.

The key is that even Wu and Ōnoki from the Hidden Rock Village cannot resist them together? Is the enemy really that strong?

Qu Feng put away the scroll in his hand and put it in his arms: "Send someone to keep watching and see if there is any new news. Inform all villagers not to leave their homes after dark at 7 o'clock in the evening."

"Yes!"

Duan took action immediately after receiving Qufeng's order. Qufeng was in no mood to go back and rest at this time.

I thought the ninja world would be peaceful for a while, but I didn't expect it to become chaotic again so soon.

Fortunately, I have not stopped practicing over the years, otherwise it would be difficult to survive one battle after another.

Especially now that Qufeng is somewhat unsure about the future direction of the ninja world, he must be more cautious.

The attacks on these villages now may be just appetizers. Only some buildings have been affected, and the attackers are all at the Kage level, so they are not difficult to deal with.

After all, there are simply too many Kage-level warriors in Konoha Village now, and on average, each of the major families has one or two Kage-level warriors.

If they really dare to attack Konoha, they might never come back.

But as Qufeng said just now, these are just appetizers. It is still unclear who the real mastermind is, and it is also unclear whether the other party knows the information about Konoha.

The enemy is in the dark and I am in the light, so it is very difficult to deal with. If I am not careful, it may lead to bad consequences.

With the experience of Yu back then, Qufeng will not look down on others easily now. He still remembers the loss he suffered at the hands of Yu back then.

"It's great to meet Kakuzu. The organization's members should be distributed in many villages and towns, and they should be well-informed."

After saying that, Qu Feng released the intelligent puppet to handle official business, while he turned into a cloud and floated back home.

After closing the door, Qu Feng lay on the bed and poured his thoughts into the mark.

In a cave in the Land of Rain, Kakuzu was looking at a map. The drizzle outside the cave seemed to never stop, and even the fire was not burning very well due to the humidity.

Suddenly he felt a warm sensation on his arm, and Kakuzu knew that the leader was coming again.

Sure enough, not long after, a puppet in a white robe and with golden hair crawled out from the mark.

"I haven't contacted Kakuzu for a long time, how have you been recently?"

Kakuzu put the map aside and said, "Thanks to you, I've been doing pretty well lately."

I smelled a mildewy smell in the air and looked around, only to discover that this cramped little cave was filled with puddles of water.

Only the place where Kakuzu sat was dry.

"What kind of place is this? It's so humid."

Kakuzu added a few pieces of firewood to the fire and said, "This must be your first time here in the Land of Rain."

Hearing the name, Qu Feng was stunned for a moment. After so many years, this was his first time to come to the Rain Country.

In my previous life, I heard that it rains in the Rain Country all year round and it never stops.

I thought it was an exaggeration, but now it seems to be true.

"There's no village in front of you and no shop behind you. What are you doing here?"

After hearing this, Kakuzu looked at Qufeng deeply, then sighed: "Ah, my leader is a very busy man. After becoming Hokage, he has abandoned the organization. I can only rely on me to run around and attract new blood to the organization."

Although Kakuzu's expression didn't change, Qufeng could hear the deep resentment in his words.

Qu Feng could only laugh at this: "Ah, there is nothing I can do. There is no one in the ninja world who does not belong to me and has high talent. I am the kind of person who would rather have nothing than something bad. That is why the organization is not developing well."

"That's why I came to this shabby place to recruit talents. In this small ninja village in the Rain Country, there is a ninja with great talent. If we can win him over, our organization can move to a higher level."

The Land of Rain and Good Talent, there is nothing wrong with these two taken individually, but there are big problems when they are put together.

Could it be anyone else but Hanzo? This was the time when Hanzo was at the height of his fame. A year earlier, Qufeng had heard that a super genius had emerged from the Land of Rain.

He also wanted to let the Rain Country replace the already silent Lightning Country and become the new fifth largest ninja village.

Originally, this period of time should have been the time when Hanzo was full of confidence and launched a war against other countries.

However, perhaps due to Qu Feng's reputation and strength, no action has been taken.

Qufeng originally thought that the attack was caused by Yuyin, but if they had ten Kage-level warriors, would they still be so timid? They could just occupy the Land of Lightning.

"By the way, the person you want to invite isn't Hanzo, the leader of the Hidden Rain Village?"

Chapter 346: Flying Thunder God's Progress

Qufeng originally thought that the attack was caused by Yuyin, but if they had ten Kage-level warriors, would they still be so timid? They could just occupy the Land of Lightning.

"By the way, the person you want to invite isn't Hanzo, the leader of the Hidden Rain Village?"

Kakuzu looked at Qufeng and said, "Of course. Otherwise, how could there be any powerful characters in this shabby place like the Hidden Rain Village?"

"You're right. At this stage, Hanzo is the only one worth winning over."

But you can’t tell what will happen in the future.

"Let's not talk about that for now. The main reason I came to you is because of the attack on Sand Village and Iwagakure Village. Do you have any information?"

Kakuzu thought for a moment and then said, "There are indeed some, but not many. They are elusive and will disappear quickly after the attack. They are basically the same as those in the black market."

Hearing Kakuzu's answer, Toukou was a little disappointed. He had come here to see if he could get some new information.

But found nothing.

However, this was also within Qufeng's expectations. If it was so easy to find out who those people were, Fengying would not have to come to him to form any information sharing.

"Okay, then how confident are you that you can successfully win over Hanzo?"

Kakuzu shook his head upon hearing this: "Zero, not at all. I was just trying my luck. I mainly wanted to see how strong he is and whether he would be an obstacle for us."

Well, this is within Qufeng's expectations. After all, Hanzo is the leader of a ninja village. No matter how amazing you are, it is possible for him to cooperate with you, but he can forget about joining you directly.

Qufeng sighed: "Then just treat it as a trip and relax. If you can't beat Hanzo, remember to run fast."

Kakuzu snorted coldly upon hearing this: "Of course I know that. That kid's poison is very difficult to deal with, and I'm not completely sure."

Then Qufeng talked to Kakuzu about some things about the organization. They hadn't been in touch for a long time, and Qufeng knew nothing about the development of the organization.

However, judging from Kakuzu's report, the organization is still on the rise, which is a good thing.

Anyway, with Kakuzu as a financial guru, there is no need to worry about the asset issue. Moreover, Qufeng's management of the organization is the same as his management of Konoha Village, fishing for three days and drying the net for two days.

Reporting false data would not benefit the perspective, so this is also out of the question.

After everything was over, Qufeng's thoughts returned to his body. After staying in the Rain Country for a while, he felt wet all over.

The climate there is really unacceptable. I hope Kakuzu won't have any bad reactions there. As the most capable and only general under Qufeng, he can't have any accidents, otherwise the organization will really fall apart.

The original body lying on the bed opened its eyes, breathed in the air of Konoha Village and felt much more comfortable.

He got up and went to the yard, only to find that Minato had returned.

As he was practicing ninjutsu, Tofu deliberately slowed down his pace so as not to disturb him.

I'm afraid I don't have much time left to rest like this, as I still have to talk to Fengying soon.

After all, he still has to stay in Konoha Village for another day, so they must meet, otherwise it would be disrespectful to the Kazekage.

Although it's okay to be disrespectful, it's always better to have more friends than more enemies. It's just a matter of moving your feet, and it's not tiring.

"Focus on chakra control, focus the chakra where you need to release it, don't be impatient."

Qufeng reminded Minato at the right time, and the ninjutsu that was about to fail was slightly reversed.

It actually seemed to be somewhat successful.

A spell appeared on the shuriken, the Sword of Ninja Love.

"Very good, we have successfully taken the first step."

Minato was a little out of breath at this time, and the ninjutsu just now consumed a lot of his chakra.

If Qu Feng hadn't reminded him in time, all the chakra in his body would have been drained.
