Seeing the three people nod, he said no more, waved his hands, and started running with everyone.

For a ninja, finding the enemy's trace and tracking is an important part of the basic skills.

It is obvious that Nawaki and others have also learned this knowledge in the Ninja Academy.

But compared with an experienced Chunin like Nara Sora, their knowledge seemed too superficial.

Those hundreds of enemies obviously realized that they had to hide their tracks.

The large set of footprints disappeared after reaching a dense forest. Apparently, they changed their way of travelling when they reached here.

Use the branches of those huge trees to jump and move forward.

However, those trees that seemed to have no traces were like conspicuous landmarks in Nara Sora's eyes.

He did not hesitate at all, constantly changing direction in the dense forest, but firmly following the trail.

The continuous pursuit lasted for nearly half a day, and before they knew it, the four of them followed the trail to a valley.

Looking at the tiny valley entrance in front of him, which was only a few people wide, Nara Sora felt a strange feeling in his heart.

The traces of nearly hundreds of people disappeared here, but it was different from what we imagined. Why did they come to this sealed valley?

This place is not even close to a city, it is far away from the battlefield where they are.

A hint of uneasiness gradually grew in his heart, but in the end, he rationally chose the most conservative decision.

After taking a look at the valley in front of him, he bit his lip and said:

“No, you can’t go in.

That's it, we retreat!"

However, just as he gave the order and was about to lead the three people to retreat.

A voice sounded from behind them, making him break out in a cold sweat.

“I said, you have been following me for so long?

How about coming in and sitting down?"

Nara Sora immediately looked in the direction where the sound came from, only to see that five figures had stood behind them without them noticing.

The people were wearing forehead protectors with the emblem of the Hidden Mist Village.

Moreover, those ninjas had all kinds of strange ninja tools on them.

Nara Sora, who had been on the battlefield for a year, instantly recognized the people in front of him.

These are the five most famous jonin from the Hidden Mist Village on the battlefield, and the legendary Ninja Swordsmen!

However, what surprised him even more was the conversation that followed.

"So, as long as we kill these people, that Kagura will come over on his own initiative?"

Kagura?

When this name sounded, Nara Sora was startled.

At this moment, another voice suddenly came from the other side.

That voice gave Nara Sora a very familiar feeling.

"Don't worry, Kagura will definitely come!"

As the voice fell, a familiar figure gradually appeared.

When he saw the man's true face, Nara Sora was filled with disbelief.

Chapter 33 Fangs in the Dark

As that familiar voice came, a person that Nara Sora didn't expect appeared in front of him.

The man had brown hair, neatly cut sideburns, and a signature cross-shaped scar on his chin.

This man is none other than the frontline Konoha commander-in-chief, Danzo.

For Konoha, when fighting in two places, they had to separate the command personnel and take charge of the battles separately.

The war in the Rain Country was relatively intense and dangerous, so the Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen went there in person.

Danzo, who had been hiding in the rear all these years, was sent here to take command.

The two advisors are stationed in Konoha Village to provide support to the front line.

Looking at Danzo who appeared in front of him, Nara Sora rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

He could never have imagined that the usually respected Lord Danzo would actually stand with the enemy's jonin at this time.

Moreover, they were actually discussing how to plot against the ninjas on their side.

Looking at the surprised expressions of Nara Sora and his three subordinate Genin, Danzo's expression did not change at all.

In fact, the areas that Nara Sora is assigned to missions in today and the people he is leading have all been carefully planned by him.

And his purpose, for which he was willing to collude with the enemy forces and even sacrifice the lives of his own Konoha ninjas, was precisely Kagura herself.

To be precise, it was Kagura's eyes.

The cause of all this can be traced back to what happened in the Rain Country nine years ago.

That day, Kagura used Kotoamatsukami on Danzo for the first time.

Although his pupil power was limited at that time and the power of Bie Tian Shen he displayed was limited, he was still Bie Tian Shen.

Unfortunately, he was too unfamiliar with how to use it at that time, although he successfully erased Danzo's memory of it all.

But the way it is deleted is always somewhat flawed.

And who is Danzo?

By connecting the events that happened before and after in the remaining memories, he was certain that he had encountered some kind of illusory ninjutsu.

But no matter what method he used afterwards, he was unable to recover the lost memory.

But Danzo was not discouraged. He calmed down and carefully studied the details of each of Kagura's missions in recent years.

From the details described in those missions, he discovered that Kagura's eyes seemed to be more powerful than he had imagined.

Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi were ninjutsu he had never seen in other Uchiha clan members.

Moreover, through repeated details, he was able to roughly deduce the effect of Kotoamatsukami's ninjutsu.

After learning about the power of Kotoamatsukami, Danzo immediately made a decision in his mind.

This kind of ninjutsu can never be controlled by others, at least not by the Uchiha clan.

At that moment, he had already decided in his heart that he must snatch these eyes from Kagura.

In order to avoid being controlled by Kagura, he even deliberately avoided Kagura over the years to reduce the chance of appearing in front of her.

Unfortunately, ever since becoming a Jonin, Kagura has always liked to carry out missions alone.

This left him with no chance to take action.

Finally, after years of waiting, he waited for the Second Ninja World War.

In such a war, he had many opportunities to plan.

After learning that the Hidden Cloud Village had sent the Two-Tails Jinchuriki to the battlefield, he immediately reported to the Konoha high-level officials.

While reporting, he recommended Kagura to come to the battlefield to carry out the mission.

After Kagura arrived at the battlefield, he used his personal combat power to threaten the two major forces.

He also contacted the top leaders of the Hidden Mist Village through his spies as soon as possible.

When he suggested setting a trap to help the Hidden Mist Village destroy Kagura, the other party had no reason to refuse.

As for Danzo, he could plan to kill Kagura, but he could not use his own people in Konoha.

Regardless of how to explain to the Konoha high-level officials in the future, even his subordinates who are also from Konoha may not be strong enough to keep Kagura.

The two parties hit it off as soon as they came into contact.

The Hidden Mist Village can get rid of a big threat, and Danzo's request is very simple. After killing Kagura, her body needs to be handed over to him for disposal.

After the two parties decided to cooperate, the only difficulty was how to lure Kagura into their trap.

Danzo already had a plan in mind for this.

He first used his authority as the commander-in-chief of the front line and specially mobilized Sheng Shu to come to the battlefield.

At the same time, he also sent someone to forge a letter and sent it to Kagura via crows.

Yes, the letter from Tsunade that Kagura received yesterday was forged by someone sent by Danzo.

No matter how unreliable Tsunade is in her daily life, she would never make such a personal request when she knows that Kagura is on a mission on the battlefield.

So the seemingly authentic letter was actually just a part of Danzo's conspiracy.

In fact, since Nara Sora set out on the mission today, his team's every move had already been monitored by Danzo and the people of the Hidden Mist Village.

And their target was the rope tree in the team.

If Nara Sora chose to send Rope Tree's group back to report after discovering the deliberate traces, they would also send people to temporarily kill Rope Tree's group of Genin.

His current arrangements have saved them a lot of trouble.

Ignoring Nara Sora's grim expression, Danzo continued to speak to the jonin of the Hidden Mist Village:

“Everything is as planned, as long as we kill this Rope Tree.

Then I will spread this news through Konoha's channels. With Kagura's personality, she will definitely come alone.

Then we can surround and kill him."

Yes, this was his final plan.

Hundreds of traces of enemies, forged letters from Tsunade, and finally the information of Rope Tree's death.

Combining this information together, he was more than 90% sure that Kagura, who was used to acting alone, would come alone.

As long as such an opportunity can be created, the ten senior ninjas lying in ambush here can work together to kill it.

Hearing Danzo's confident words, Muri Shinpachi smiled cruelly and said:
