He pulled Byakuya Shigure and Fuuin Suzuran into the dense thicket.

Shigure Byakuya and Suzuran Kaede immediately held their breath, staring intently at what was in front of them.

The sound of hurried footsteps approached.

Two figures appeared about twenty meters away from the bushes where Itachi and his two companions were hiding.

A ninja staggered toward Itachi and his companions, the stench of blood so strong it seemed he was already right in front of them.

They watched helplessly as blood dripped continuously from his body.

The moonlight shone on the ninja, and when Suzuran Kaede saw the Konoha headband on the ninja's head, she gasped.

Realizing she had made a sound, Suzuran Kaede quickly covered her mouth.

The short sword pierced through the chest of the ninja wearing a Konoha headband.

The ninja stretched out his hand in agony, but still collapsed helplessly to the ground.

The ninja fell, revealing the executioner behind him, a ninja whose face was covered by a tanuki mask.

The masked ninja drew his short sword and walked towards where Itachi Uchiha and his group were hiding.

Suzuran bit her lower lip. She must have given away her location by making a sound!

Suzuran Kaede glanced at Shigure Byakuya and Itachi Uchiha, then jumped out of the bushes and shot her maple leaf darts at the masked ninja.

The ninja wearing the tanuki mask suddenly transformed into countless afterimages.

The still-dripping dagger stabbed towards Suzuran Kaedein.

The familiar ninjutsu caused Itachi Uchiha's pupils to shrink sharply.

Instantaneous movement technique...

Stop the water!

Itachi Uchiha's Sharingan lit up in the darkness.

His scarlet pupils reflected the image of the masked man before him.

"Still water..."

The sound in his ear made the tanuki ninja pause in his grip on the blade.

This blow caused his short sword to be blocked by a long sword, and the maple leaf dart grazed his mask.

click-

Cracks appeared on the mask.

The masked ninja reached out to steady the mask, but it quickly shattered into pieces and fell to the ground.

A very familiar face appeared in Itachi Uchiha's sight.

Suzuran Kaede and Shigure Byakuya were also taken aback.

They stared at Uchiha Shisui in front of them, frozen in place.

They would naturally recognize the face of a ninja like Uchiha Shisui who had distinguished himself in the war.

Suzuran Kaede frowned immediately. Instead of launching another attack, she questioned, "Why did you kill the village's ninjas?"

Byakuya Shigure stared warily at Uchiha Shisui before him: "Attacking a ninja from your own village will be considered a rogue ninja!"

Itachi Uchiha glanced at Shisui in front of him and subconsciously said, "No..."

Byakuya Shigure and Kaede Suzuran immediately tugged at Uchiha Itachi.

If Uchiha Shisui were to attack them, they would have no power to resist.

“Shisui wouldn’t do that…”

Uchiha Itachi murmured unconsciously.

Uchiha Shisui sheathed his sword.

He glanced at the three ninjas in front of him.

"He is a rogue ninja."

After saying this, Uchiha Shisui collected the corpses on the ground into a scroll and disappeared from the sight of Uchiha Itachi and the other two.

Suzuran Kaede breathed a huge sigh of relief, wiping the cold sweat from her forehead: "I almost thought I was going to die here..."

After all, I saw someone else's secret.

"Is he a rogue ninja?"

Shirayuki looked at the pool of blood on the ground and frowned in confusion.

"do not know……"

"Island Suzuran said blankly."

"Should we report this to the Hokage?"

Suzuran Kaede looked at Itachi Uchiha.

The scene just now clearly shows that Itachi Uchiha and Shisui Uchiha have an unusual relationship, so we should definitely ask Itachi Uchiha what he thinks about this.

Itachi Uchiha stood still.

He believed in still water.

"Should we tell the captain?"

Suddenly, Suzuran Kaede had a brilliant idea and said to them.

"The Hokage must be resting by now. Let's go ask the captain!"

Suzuran Kaede looked expectantly at Shigure Byakuya and Itachi Uchiha.

Shirayuki looked at Suzuran Kaedin, whose face was full of expectation, and asked her with a complicated expression, "Do you really not know?"

"what?"

"I ask Suzuran Kaede, puzzled."

"The captain's relationship with that Uchiha Shisui seems to be unusual..."

Shirayuki Shigure felt a little awkward.

"So what?"

Suzuran Kaede thought the captain and Uchiha Shisui were just friends. With her hands on her hips, she said without hesitation, "The captain would never favor Uchiha Shisui just because of their special relationship!"

Shirayuki looked at Suzuran Kaedin, who was making a firm promise, and nodded subconsciously.

Lily of the Valley is right!

"Then let's tell the captain about this first!"

Shirayuki Shigure also supports this decision.

Itachi Uchiha subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

Chapter 277 made a mistake!!!

The sky is bright.

There was a knock on the door of Rei Amamiya's house.

Rei Amamiya got up and opened the door with a face full of question marks.

Standing in the entryway, looking at the three people crowded around the door, Rei Amamiya fell silent.

"Please come in first!"

Rei Amamiya opened the door.

Suzuran Kaede, Itachi Uchiha, and Shigure Byakuya entered the living room one after another.

Rei Amamiya closed the door, his nose twitched, and a bloody smell lingered in the air.

He walked to the sofa in the living room, sat down, and waved to them: "Please sit down."

Suzuran Kaede sat on the sofa, unable to resist glancing around.

no way!

This was her first time visiting the team leader's home!

I'm so curious!

Shigure Shigure nudged Suzuran Kaedin, signaling her to tone it down.

They came here because they had something important to tell the captain.

"Why are you looking for me so early?"

Rei Amamiya took the initiative to ask.

Judging from the appearance of Itachi and the other two, they must have just finished a mission not long ago.

Why are you coming here instead of going home to rest?

"team leader……"

When it was time to speak, Suzuran Kaede inexplicably became nervous.

Because this matter is just too big!

That's Uchiha Shisui!

Noticing Suzuran's tension, Rei Amamiya raised an eyebrow in surprise. What big thing had happened?

Did anything unexpected happen during your mission?

"I ask with concern," Rei Amamiya asked.

Looking into the captain's gentle eyes, Suzuran Kaede felt a surge of courage.

She took a deep breath and said directly, "Captain, when we were returning to the village from a mission, we witnessed Uchiha Shisui killing a ninja from his own village!"

Rei Amamiya's pupils contracted, his face went blank, and he asked again, "What?"

Suzuran Kaede pursed her lips and repeated what she had just said. After she finished speaking, she immediately added, "Of course, Uchiha Shisui explained that he killed a rogue ninja from Konoha."

Compared to other ninja villages, Konoha has far fewer rogue ninja.

There were almost no rogue ninjas.

That's why Suzuran Kaede doubted the veracity of Uchiha Shisui's words.

Rei Amamiya slowly processed the news.

His brain was working at lightning speed.

Shisui is currently working for Danzo of the Root Sect.

Danzo did indeed enjoy sending people on shady assassination missions.

However, Shisui is not without judgment.

It's possible that person really is a rogue ninja.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that this was a trap set by Danzo for Uchiha Shisui!

Especially when the three little ones saw it, Rei Amamiya became even more suspicious that Danzo had done it on purpose.

"Captain, do you think Uchiha Shisui might be lying to us?"

Seeing that the captain hadn't spoken for a long time, Suzuran Kaede couldn't help but guess.

As soon as she finished speaking, Itachi Uchiha looked nervously at Rei Amamiya.

Rei Amamiya rubbed the back of Suzuran Kaede's head, and Suzuran immediately squinted her eyes in enjoyment.

"Did you only tell me about this?"

"I asked Amamiya Rei."

Shigatsu nods.

Since he was the only one told, we'll find out tomorrow whether this is a trap set by Danzo.
