"Weird?" Sandai looked at Jiraiya and frowned.
Although Jiraiya is the least likely of his three disciples, he is also the most reliable, both in terms of combat prowess and keen intuition.
Jiraiya shook his head, stared at the Yondaime couple in the culture tank, and said, "Old man, I feel that they are different from before, and that special chakra has also disappeared."
The third generation suddenly frowned, took a few steps forward to the culture tank, and began to operate the instrument.
After a series of operations, the culture tank slowly opened, and the smell of medicine filled the entire laboratory.
Squatting on the ground, Kakashi opened his Sharingan and carefully observed the bodies of the Yondaime couple, his face gradually becoming extremely gloomy.
"Sandaime-sama, these are not Mr. Minato and Mrs. Kushina, but imitations!"
"It's indeed an imitation."
Jiraiya said solemnly: "The existence of little Minato and little Kushina is a top secret in the village. Who on earth slipped them? And this imitation is fake!"
"Who is it?" The Third Hokage fell into deep thought.
In his impression, the only people who had perfect clones of the fourth generation couple were Danzo and Orochimaru.
However, Orochimaru defected long before the Night of the Nine-Tails and could not know such a top secret. Danzo would also not behave like this. Although Danzo had conflicts with Minato, his starting point was for the village.
At this time, Kakashi asked: "Sir, is there surveillance here?"
The Third Hokage nodded lightly: "This is true, but it has been several months since Tsunade last checked. It will take a lot of time to read through so many surveillances."
"Leave it to me." Kakashi volunteered.
Then several people came to the monitoring room nearby. Kakashi directly used the shadow clone technique, and several clone screens watched the surveillance in recent months.
Soon, Kakashi finally found an abnormality in the surveillance.
On the day when the masked man attacked the village for the second time, several headless and faceless figures appeared in the surveillance and entered the laboratory.
"This?" Kakashi frowned and said, "It seems to be a member of the Akatsuki organization!"
"Members of the Akatsuki Organization?" The Third Hokage frowned, "Did the purpose of the Akatsuki Organization not only kidnap Naruto, but also attack Minato Kushina and his wife? But with their style, they shouldn't make imitations.
Isn’t this unnecessary?”
Kakashi also noticed this and said: "Maybe it's a conspiracy set by the Akatsuki organization."
Listening to the conversation between Kakashi and the Third, Jiraiya felt a little sad in his heart. Whether it was Minato and his wife, Konan, Yahiko and others, he had watched them grow up.
Now, these people he regarded as his children have parted ways with him.
"Huh..." The third generation had mixed feelings. He was glad that it was not Danzo who attacked the fourth generation couple, but he was worried about the fourth generation couple. He also didn't know whether this action was ordered by Orochimaru.
Although Orochimaru rarely appears, various evidences show that he is a member of the Akatsuki organization.
After a period of sadness, the three of them walked out of the Hokage Tower underground with heavy hearts. The two imitations were also put back far away, planning to bury them secretly soon.
When they stepped out of the underground and saw the sun, the three of them felt much better, at least on the surface they were back to normal.
The fourth-generation couple who fell into a deep sleep ten years ago is not much different from death. They have long been accustomed to witnessing the death of countless companions, and they have only been trying to wake up for so many years.
The only thing that makes people worry is whether they will be enemies when they meet again.
…
Danzo didn't know that he had been suspected by the Third Generation, and even if he knew, he wouldn't take it too seriously.
The remains of the Yondaime couple have no use value. The Yondaime's strength is talent, not blood. It will also leave a disgraceful resume on his future path as Hokage.
His resume is very perfect, and the darkness hides most of his achievements, as well as his disgraceful side. The jonin in the village only knows that he is the root leader who has made great achievements in battle, and is a disciple of the Second Hokage.
At the moment, Danzo is reading the information sent by his subordinates.
This information records the exchange of black market bounty, which he secretly asked Ryoma Aburame to obtain from the black market boss through some small means.
Although he violated the rules of the black market, the black market boss has disappeared and been replaced.
Compared with the darkness of the War Machine Ninja Village, the black market that wanders in the gray area is still too immature, and some of the black markets were even opened by the Ninja Village.
In the past few months, the intelligence of the Akatsuki organization has been very poor. For those Akatsuki members who are at least elite jounin, it is easy to cast illusions.
Even if there are some fragments of information, it is all false information to confuse the public.
Everyone in the top five ninja villages knows that the Akatsuki organization is in the Land of Rain, but no one dares to go there.
Among those Akatsuki members who are out on the road, they still have to pick some soft persimmons. Although Danzo considers himself powerful, he does not want to directly face the masked man, the leader of the Akatsuki organization, the 'president' and others.
After careful selection, Danzo set his sights on the immortal duo. Apart from their immortality, these two were simply elite jounin who were not too strong.
Hunting these two people is not only less risky, but can also build a reputation. No one in the Akatsuki organization died, which is too demoralizing.
After gathering the information, Danzo looked at his deputy, Ryoma, the elite jounin of the Aburame family, and said calmly: "Is the bait ready?"
Aburame Ryoma nodded slightly: "Sir, we have prepared several baits and are waiting for the fish to take the bait. As long as they redeem the bounty... everything will be fine."
Danzo smiled again and again, showing an indifferent expression.
There is no doubt that the trap he set was to target Kakuzu's greed for money and Hidan's tendency to kill. Both Akatsuki members have clear origins and extremely fatal weaknesses.
And their trump card was also clearly visible in the last attack on the village.
After pondering for a moment, Danzo said to Aburame Ryoma: "There is no need for other teams to participate in this operation. The Wood Release Team and I are enough."
"Yes." Aburame Ryoma replied, silently retreating into the shadows.
Due to the nature of the root ninja, most of the ninjutsu and taijutsu used by the root ninja are assassination-related ninjutsu and taijutsu. Stealth and assassination are naturally professional counterparts, but both Kakuzu and Hidan have immortal bodies and are old bounty hunters in the black market.
, assassination is almost impossible to succeed.
Although Danzo regards his subordinates as tools, he will not waste tools carelessly.
