Any ninja with exceptional talent will be forcibly recruited into Root and carefully trained.
Seeing Danzo's resolute words, and not wanting the Anbu to be used by Danzo, the yellow dog said:
"Lord Danzo, the Anbu is not short of new recruits for the time being."
The shortage in the Dark Division isn't significant; its four squads can be replenished with two to three new recruits each month.
Danzo gave the yellow dog a cold look, then turned and left.
The yellow dog ended up in an embarrassing situation.
When Ye Guang followed the yellow dog back to the Anbu, he asked, "Chief, what is Advisor Danzo planning to do? Forcibly conscripting civilian ninjas is one thing, but forcibly conscripting ninja clan geniuses, will the ninja clans agree?"
"The advisor, Danzo, is getting anxious," Huang Quan said.
"The Root now only has two and a half people left, Bing and Gui, half of Orochimaru."
The crucial point is that Danzo's advisors still haven't determined who the enemy is, or who is secretly killing Root ninjas.
The Golden Eagle team has been investigating, but hasn't found anything.
All we know is that the culprit was a master of Fire Release techniques, possessing at least the strength of an elite Jonin.
Ye Guang felt a little guilty. His Fire Release technique hadn't reached the level of an elite Jonin. He only looked like a Fire Release master because he had unleashed a Master-level Fire Release: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet. The technique was fast and the enemy had little time to react.
Back in Huang Quan's office, Huang Quan looked at the mission report and said:
"Fox, this is your 9th S-rank mission. When I was your age, I hadn't even completed half of your S-rank missions."
"It's all thanks to your excellent arrangements, Minister."
The yellow dog smiled.
Assistant Butterfly knocked on the office door and entered:
"My lord, a scroll has been sent from the Root Department. Minister Danzo will be recruiting at least 20 people to enter the Root Department for training this week."
Bing said that the Root organization was short-handed, and ordered the Dark Division to send five elite members to mentor the new recruits.
The yellow dog took the scroll, looked at it, and said:
"Fox, you've carried out two S-rank missions in the Land of Lightning in the last two months. Why don't you take a break and go to Root to train Jonin? I'll feel more at ease if you lead the others into Root."
"Okay, Minister."
After leaving Huang Quan's office and returning to his own, Ye Guang asked Zi Mao to bring him the squad's mission report for the month.
The team's tasks are mostly village-level surveillance.
Purple Cat acts as an assistant, receiving and distributing tasks on Nightlight's behalf when Nightlight is not around.
With the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki under surveillance, and the Senju, Uchiha, and Aburame clans also monitoring the situation, there was no real danger.
We need to find a way to provide Orochimaru with valuable intelligence, including information on the Yellow Dog and the Five Elements Great Combo, as well as information on the Black Ant Squad and the Book of Sealing.
There are some difficulties, and I don't know where to start.
A scroll caught Ye Guang's attention.
The Antelope Squad wrote a scroll saying that the number of pregnant women in the obstetrics and gynecology department of Konoha Hospital had surged.
"Purple Cat, what month is it now?"
June.
"The war ended at the end of last year. After the war ended, the ninjas' stress levels dropped sharply, and their reproductive cells became more active."
"Reproductive cells?" Purple Cat looked at the scroll and said, "Yes, there is a baby boom after every Shinobi World War."
In the ninja world, women take their husband's surname after marriage.
Ye Guang glanced at the surnames of the pregnant women recorded by the Antelope Squad and roughly guessed which group of people had been born.
Izumo Kamui, Kotetsu, Hayate Gekko, Iruka—most of the special Jonin that Naruto encountered in the original manga were born around this time.
Ye Guang embraced the purple cat and stroked its belly.
Being touched on the belly by the fox was more embarrassing than being touched anywhere else; the purple cat's face turned red, and even its long neck under the mask turned red.
The fox is checking to see if she is pregnant.
"Fox... We are both ANBU ninjas. If we have a child, it can't take your surname until you retire from ANBU..."
"It doesn't matter, I'm just a commoner without a surname."
The name Ye Guang was inherited from the original owner, who also had no surname and was a commoner from the lower class.
Ye Guang doesn't mind having children, but she's a little worried about what bloodline the children might inherit.
His current bloodline limits are Uzumaki, Senju, Uchiha, and Hyuga, which is rather chaotic.
Logically speaking, the first thing one should acquire is the Thousand Hands Bloodline Limit, which has the greatest impact on oneself.
Uzumaki and Senju are somewhat better off, but what if Yamanaka Ri's child has the Sharingan or Byakugan?
When exploring the Purple Cat more deeply, if we use the self-healing ability of the Thousand Hands bloodline, will it increase the probability of inheriting the Thousand Hands bloodline?
The fact that Ye Guang, a commoner, possesses the Thousand Hands Bloodline Limit is relatively easy to explain.
When women of the Senju clan marry ninjas in the village, they stop using the Senju surname, which explains why the Senju bloodline continues to spread within the village.
Ye Guang said, "Li, if you have a child, let the child's name include the character 'Ye' (night)."
Purple Cat was taken aback; this was the first time the fox had revealed information about his identity to her.
Despite her close relationship with the fox, Purple Cat still doesn't know who the fox is.
She is the fox's assistant and has no authority to see any information about the fox squad leader.
"Night?" Purple Cat nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I'll remember."
"It's my fault, the baby boom has started and your belly still hasn't shown any signs. I need to make sure you get plenty of nourishment during this time!"
Chapter 244 Yamanaka Ryu, Let Her Enter the Root
Purple Cat's legs went weak, and she walked back to her locker room.
He changed into his own clothes and vanished instantly from the courtyard of the Dark Division.
On the way home, Yamanaka Riko had a smile on her face. The fox said that if she had a child, she would name the child with the character "night" in it.
Is it called "Mountain Night" or "Mountain Night"?
It’s so hard to choose.
During dinner that evening, the younger sister, Yamanaka Ryu, secretly watched her older sister for a long time before finally unable to hold back and asking, "Sister, what are you secretly laughing at?"
Yamanaka Rimi immediately put on a stern face: "Eat! No talking while eating or sleeping!"
Yamanaka Ryu said, "No talking while eating? That's a requirement only for ninja clans like the Shimura and Hyuga clans, which have many rules. When have we ever had such a requirement?"
Yamanaka Ryu put down her chopsticks and leaned close to her sister, whispering, "Sister, I know what missions you go on every day. Are you one of those legendary ANBU ninjas?"
Yamanaka Riko's eyes tensed for a moment, then immediately relaxed.
She never told her sister about her mission, but her sister was too close to her and might guess something from her whereabouts.
"Nonsense, how could I be an ANBU ninja? Don't talk nonsense, spreading rumors will get you arrested and interrogated by the ANBU."
Yamanaka Ryū immediately stepped back, still shaken, and said:
"One of my classmates was arrested and interrogated for spreading rumors about Lord White Fang. They asked him if he was acting on someone's orders."
After leaving the Dark Guard, he became much more silent, having suffered a significant blow there.
Riri Yamanaka knew a little about this matter; recently, someone had been building up support for White Fang, and White Fang's prestige was growing.
Today, the fox and Lord Orochimaru returned from the Land of Lightning. It's time to build up Lord Orochimaru's reputation again.
Just then, someone suddenly opened their door.
"Li! The clan leader urgently summons you!"
Li ignored her meal and headed towards the clan chief's residence.
Yamanaka Ryu looked at her sister's back with envy. The last time she saw the clan leader and her sister talking under the corridor, she didn't know what they were talking about. The clan leader listened carefully, and her sister spoke slowly.
My sister's status in the clan is rising, and she is highly regarded by many Jonin.
When Yamanaka Rie arrived at the clan chief's residence, she saw the clan chief, Yamanaka Ien.
"Li, you've come," said Yamanaka Ien.
"Time is of the essence. Has something happened in the Anbu and Root recently? Why did Advisor Danzo start entering the territories of each ninja clan this afternoon?"
Normally, Yamanaka Ien wouldn't investigate the Dark Side or Root's intelligence, but the current situation is special.
Danzo's actions put a lot of pressure on the ninja clan.
Yamanaka Rie thought for a moment and said, "Clan Chief, do you still remember the murder of Shimura Oka and Sarutobi Yu, who were about to be promoted to Jonin?"
"remember."
Yamanaka Ien thought that the two of them were not strong enough to become Jonin.
The Third Hokage and Danzo's occasional whims with their power were something their subordinates couldn't control.
Yamanaka Rie continued, "Besides those two, six other members of the Root organization have been murdered in recent months."
I suspect that Danzo's advisors' visits to each ninja clan's territory were intended to replenish Root's ranks with powerful and skilled individuals.
The mountain well garden's heart is indeed as it is.
A man strode in from outside: "Clan Chief! Advisor Danzo has entered the clan territory!"
"Please ask him to go to the study... no, please ask him to go to the main hall. I'll be there right now."
It was inconvenient for Yamanaka Ri to appear. She was an ANBU ninja, and Danzo was her superior. It would be inappropriate for her to side with either the ANBU or the clan, so she stayed in the clan leader's study.
Yamanaka Ien arrived at the main hall of the Yamanaka clan and waited for Danzo.
"Please sit down, Danzo."
However, Danzo did not sit down, but stood and said to Yamanaka Ien:
"Clan Chief Ioen, although the Second Shinobi World War has ended, the safety of the village is still not optimistic."
Hidden in the shadows, these individuals repeatedly provoke the village and slaughter its key ninjas.
Yamanaka Ien thought to himself, "The one who's provoking the village isn't you, it's probably not you."
"The Root and Anbu urgently need powerful ninjas to protect the village in the dark and accomplish tasks that ordinary ninjas cannot."
I have already notified the Aburame clan, the Hyuga clan, and other ninja clans.
Every ninja clan has an inescapable responsibility to sacrifice for Konoha.
The Yamanaka clan does the same, regularly sending two ninjas to Root: one is an elite Chunin or Special Jonin with outstanding immediate combat ability, and the other is a young but highly talented child who has not yet entered the Ninja Academy.
Yamanaka Ien's eyes were full of confusion. He knew he couldn't escape Danzo's demands. He could understand the need for a special Jonin, but why a child?
Yamanaka Ien asked, "Advisor Danzo, our Yamanaka clan is willing to offer a Chunin or Special Jonin to the Anbu, but isn't it a bit inappropriate to ask for a child who hasn't even enrolled yet?"
Danzo said, "There is nothing wrong with it. Root will be trained from a young age, so that outstanding Root ninjas can be cultivated."
This child has lived at the root since childhood and will never return to the mountain tribe.
"Not only you, but all the other ninja clans are the same."
Yamanaka Ien looked rather grim.
This request is outrageous.
He said, "Danzo, the advisor, said that the original intention of establishing Konoha Village was to prevent 10-year-old children from going to the battlefield."
So you mean, a 4-year-old child should start root training?
I absolutely will not do this…
Before Yamanaka Ien could finish speaking, a gust of cold wind suddenly swept over him.
Danzo's four white eyes, with small, sinister pupils, stared at Yamanaka Ien.
The cold wind rushed into Shan Zhongjingyuan's sleeves, making him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
Even so, Yamanaka Ien said, "No, I do not agree to a 4-year-old child entering root training!"
