I'm drawing manga in Naruto

Supporting Konoha is impossible, but at least we have to spread the word about Madara.

They won't believe it for a while, but once some clues appear, they will spontaneously unite to deal with Ban.

After all, Konoha may be strong, but its goal is not to disrupt the ninja world, while Madara wants to obtain all the tailed beasts.

With this in mind, Danzo gradually formed an idea—to hold a secret meeting and reveal Madara's information to the world.

As for concealment, I wonder if the Dream Eater clan can do it.

Once he had the idea, Danzo immediately became excited and wished he could summon Baku himself to ask him the question. However, when he thought of the "mountain of flesh" Baku that he had summoned, he sighed and stopped.

Without a doubt, the true Baku only favors ninjas who have mastered genjutsu, and I, Shimura Danzo, am not worthy of that!

Never mind, let's wait for Akabane to come back.

The front line of the land of rivers.

"Sakumo, as expected of you, you know your son very well. You knew Kakashi would be the first to die even without reading the manga."

"It's not about understanding your son well, it's about figuring out his personality. You can't even do that. I'll go back and suggest that Shimura-sensei send you to the Land of Water for some more training!"

Shuo Mao coldly rebuked him.

"No, no, no!"

Zi Xiao immediately begged for mercy.

Despite being the same age as him and also a disciple of Danzo, Sakumo is already the captain of their team and possesses the powerful strength of an elite Jonin.

If Sakumo speaks up, he might actually be transferred to the Land of Water to deal with the cultists.

On one side, Yoru and Shinku looked at them helplessly and said, "You two really don't care at all. That's Chiyo's son!"

"There's no use in worrying. We just need to wait for orders from above."

Zi Xiao shrugged.

He was certainly worried, but since it had already happened, instead of worrying about the future pointlessly, he might as well read more comics now, so that he wouldn't regret not finishing them if such a thing really happened.

Sakumo shook his head, not believing that the teacher would do that.

Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly sensed a fluctuation and immediately got up and moved away from Zixiao, making room for her.

Zi Xiao's reaction was a little slow.

However, when Akabane appeared, he reacted immediately as well.

"Oh, everyone's here. Well then, I'll get straight to the point. The teacher said you don't need to worry. Konoha is behind you."

After finishing speaking, Akabane looked around and prepared to walk out of the tent.

The group of people were stunned for a moment.

To make a long story short...

Shinku asked in surprise, "That's it?"

"That's all. What else do you need? Where's the body?"

"I'll take you there."

Sakumo walked ahead of Akabane and led the way to another tent. At first glance, the tent seemed to be just a meeting room, but there was a hidden compartment under the table in the center of the meeting room.

After the decryption was completed, the makeshift basement was opened.

Akabane followed down and immediately bowed to Yamanaka Kazuhiro, saying, "Greetings, Yamanaka-senpai. I have come to deliver a message on the orders of Lord Danzo."

As the patriarch of the Yamanaka clan, Yamanaka Kazuhiro is the highest leader of this temporary base.

He nodded after hearing this, signaling Akabane to continue.

“This must have been orchestrated by Madara. He controlled the Third Kazekage, so he was fully capable of doing this. There’s no point in backing down. Also… I want to see these corpses.”

Akabane hadn't originally planned to check, but since he was already here, he was reluctant not to try out the ability.

"no problem."

Yamanaka Kazuhiro nodded.

Sakumo watched from the sidelines as Akabane walked to the corpse, then squatted down and closed his eyes.

He felt something was off.

Akabane seemed to have undergone some kind of change, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what it was. However, before he could think about it any further, the strange feeling disappeared.

Then, Akabane stood up, looking deep in thought.

"what have you found?"

Yamanaka Kazuhiro asked.

"We didn't find anything, but... it's a bit of a pity. If he hadn't died, there would still have been room for reconciliation between Sunagakure and us. Now it's up to fate."

Akabane stood up.

He didn't find nothing; in fact, he found more clues than Kazuhiro Yamanaka.

From his remaining memories, he discovered a fatal flaw—Sunakuni bypassed Chiyo and lured Chiyo's son to the battlefield.

Akabane has no evidence, but Konoha has the Impure World Reincarnation technique.

With this evidence, there is room for communication if Chiyo calms down.

After pondering for a long time, he said, "This body needs to be carefully preserved. I want to take it back to Konoha to prevent it from being taken away and destroyed."

"no problem."

Yamanaka Kazuhiro didn't stop them; in fact, leaving the body here would be a burden for them, so it was better for it to be taken away.

"Thank you very much, senior in the mountains."

Chapter 319 Spiritual Energy, Taste, Food, and...

"Did you find anything?"

The two walked out of the basement, and Sakumo asked in a low voice.

As a teammate for many years, he noticed something from Akabane's subtle movements—this guy had definitely discovered something.

Let's talk about this from a distance.

Akabane didn't answer directly, and returned to the squad's tent with Sakumo.

Night Dance and True Red went out on patrol and were not in the tent; only Purple Dawn was inside.

After sitting down inside the tent, he thought for a moment and decided to reveal part of the information: "In my guess, Chiyo probably doesn't know that her son has gone to the front line. This was Kazekage's decision."

Zi Xiao was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then realized that something must have been found on the corpse. He only made a connection for a moment, and Orochimaru from the manga suddenly came to mind. He immediately understood Akabane's intention...

Shuo Mao reacted quite quickly.

Suna's actions were manipulated by Madara. There was no evidence before, but now Chiyo's son is a good piece of evidence.

At the same time, Konoha has a technique that can make the dead speak—the Impure World Reincarnation!

They exchanged a glance, and finally, Sakumo asked, "Do you need our help?"

"Just be careful yourselves, and pay extra attention to Black Zetsu. That's all."

After Akabane finished speaking, he stretched and took out three or four manga volumes from his pocket. One of them was today's Naruto update, and the rest were the latest One Piece updates.

They have nothing to do for entertainment here, so I brought some comics for them.

After all, this is a large camp; it would be really inappropriate to serve hot pot or something like that.

The two were very happy.

Comics are invaluable on the front lines; they can be used to pass the time, relieve mental stress, and so on. Basically, every ninja carries several volumes with them.

Some of them I've read before, but I still read them over and over again, especially the Muzan series. Many of the volumes I've read have been worn out.

of course.

Everyone understands the principle of prioritizing the mission, and they would never let their guard down or abandon their mission just because of a comic book.

Moreover, with such a major incident, Sunagakure will definitely retaliate.

To ensure their safety, Yamanaka and Hiroshi do not plan to send them on missions frequently. During this period, they will be relatively free and have plenty of time to look at these things.

After receiving the comics, they stopped chatting with Akabane and each started reading their own comics—Sakumo was more interested in One Piece, while Zixiao immediately checked out the latest Naruto update.

Zi Xiao wasn't particularly fond of Naruto; he was just interested in the sequel to Kakashi's story.

But it's a pity.

Kakashi didn't appear in today's volume; there was only the battle between Naruto and Pain, and the Fourth Hokage also made an appearance—even though he only had a minor role.

As for the part about Pain, it didn't resonate with Zixiao much.

He sees himself as a "small fry," someone who simply follows orders from above. Whether the ninja world is at peace or not is not something he can decide, including the killing of Chiyo's child this time.

Is it up to him to decide that the task has been assigned this way?

Therefore, Zi Xiao was quite open-minded. Once on the battlefield, one must be prepared to be killed. Killing others is killing others, and who knows when it might be her turn.

Sakumo had accumulated a lot of unwatched material, and he watched up to the middle of Enies Lobby in one go. Although it didn't inspire him much, the coherent plot made it incredibly enjoyable to watch.

By the time they finished reading both volumes, Akabane's chakra had almost fully recovered.

The matter of the Impure World Reincarnation had to be resolved quickly, so he didn't linger on the front lines. He bid farewell to Sakumo and Shishou, and then used the Flying Thunder God Technique to return directly to Konoha.

To ensure the safety of the corpse, he expended a great deal of chakra, and by the time he returned to Konoha, even the chakra within the Yin Seal was completely depleted.

He nearly fainted when he landed, having exhausted his chakra.

However, Akabane knew that he still needed to bring the corpse to the Anbu and tell Danzo how to resolve the predicament through the Impure World Reincarnation.

While it's impossible to avoid the issue of Sakumo killing Chiyo's son, at least they need to know the truth of the matter.

Whether Chiyo and Ebizo will choose to fight to the death with Konoha and wait for Madara to finish off the Kazekage, or to use Konoha's power to find a way to stop the Kazekage from being controlled, depends on their own wishes.

Konoha doesn't provoke trouble, but it's not afraid of trouble either.

Danzo readily agreed.

Seeing how exhausted Akabane was, he didn't make Akabane go on the trip, saying that he would go himself and Akabane should go and rest.

Hiruzen Sarutobi may have been pedantic in some ways, but when it came to matters of survival, the Third Hokage would not object because of such trivialities.

Akabane went back to rest.

Because his chakra was consumed too drastically, the shadow clones he left in the comic room all dissipated. Now he has no chakra on hand and can only wait until he recovers some before releasing shadow clones.

After a hearty meal, his physical strength quickly recovered, and after resting for a while, he was able to barely extract three shadow clones that could sustain him for one or two hours.

Then, Akabane lay down on the chair and fell asleep.

Sleep is the best way to replenish mental energy—this time I really don't want to take an afternoon nap.

By evening, he had finally woken up.

I slept very comfortably, but when I woke up I found that the shadow clones had automatically dissipated in less than two hours. The time was too short. One Piece has five episodes, but Naruto only has two.

This part was all chaotic battles, requiring many more lines to be drawn than before, and taking much more effort, so it disappeared ahead of schedule.

Should we get it repaired?

Akabane hesitated for only a second before decisively deciding to skip the day.

There's been too much going on these past two days. We need to come up with a plan for Chiyo's situation, and Danzo definitely has another countermeasure that requires his cooperation. He won't have much time to draw on his own these next two days.

really.

The next day, before Akabane got out of bed, a ninja from the Anbu was waiting downstairs. Kurama Saki woke Akabane up from his bed.

It's not midnight yet, but normally Akabane still needs to sleep for two or three hours.

Head to the Dark Division.

Danzo shared his thoughts with Akabane—he hoped Akabane could ask Baku if a secret meeting could be held through a dream.

Dreams and illusions are the most convenient and covert means of communication, provided that the dream tapirs can do so.

Akabane is also unsure.

The person I most often boss around is a lazy bum like me, and any progress they make is only after I "spur them on".
