Chapter 179: The Man Behind the Scenes and the Man Behind the Scenes
Ninja school.
Sarutobi Hiruzen and Akihara Kagura stood high.
The Third Hokage and the young Hokage assistant looked at a group of graduated genin, and also noticed the disappearance of Mizuki, Umino Iruka and Uzumaki Naruto.
"Are you ready?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen asked softly about Akihara Kagura.
"Um."
Akihara Kagura nodded and continued: "If nothing else happens, they should be on their way to steal the Sealed Book. This time I strictly followed the instructions of Lord Hokage. Both the process and the result will definitely be satisfactory."
Nothing can go wrong…”
"???"
Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned.
What does it mean that there will definitely be no mistakes!
It seems that something unexpected has happened now!
According to his own guidance, didn't Mizuki lure Uzumaki Naruto into stealing the Book of Sealing, and Umino Iruka went to stop Mizuki and Uzumaki Naruto?
Why did Umino Iruka go with him to steal the Sealed Book?
certainly.
If I'm serious...
In fact, Umino Iruka, Mizuki and Uzumaki Naruto did not go to steal the Sealed Book, because they neither needed to sneak in to steal it nor snatch it from others.
Perhaps this behavior should be called taking.
A group of people went to the home of the third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen. Umino Iruka was still hesitant about whether he should go with them, but Mizuki's words forced him to obey.
"This is an order from the top."
Mizuki looked at Umino Iruka and looked at him with a smile: "The higher-ups in the village ordered us to take Naruto to learn the multiple shadow clone technique in the Book of Sealings, and judge Naruto's learning results before judging whether Naruto can.
Become a ninja…"
"..."
Umino Iruka's heart was in a mess.
Because of this, he did receive an order, but the technique was a forbidden technique and might endanger Naruto Uzumaki's life.
However…
Umino Iruka couldn't refuse.
Along the way, the two people took Uzumaki Naruto to Sarutobi Hiruzen's home almost unimpeded. A root ninja kept the sealed book here. When they saw Umino Iruka and Mizuki arriving together, they took the initiative to
Handed the sealed book to them.
"Iruka Chuunin, are you here to get the Book of Sealing on orders? Kagura-sama has told me that if you come to get the Book of Sealing, I will give it to you."
"yes."
Umino Iruka took the sealed book in a daze.
"Then we'll leave first."
Mizuki said hello with a smile, and left here with Umino Iruka and Uzumaki Naruto: "First, take Naruto to find a place to learn the techniques recorded in the Book of Sealings..."
In a training ground in Konoha Village.
Iruka Umino held the Book of Sealings, feeling a little uneasy: "Should we wait a moment and ask Naruto, a child, to learn forbidden arts? Isn't it unsafe? After all, the spells recorded in the Book of Sealings are all dangerous.
Are we..."
"It's okay, I can do it, Iruka-sensei!"
Uzumaki Naruto adjusted the goggles on his head. He couldn't wait to learn the techniques in the Book of Sealings, so he changed the goggles on his head into a ninja forehead protector.
"hurry up."
Mizuki took the Sealed Book from Iruka Umino's hand, spread it out on the ground, and said softly: "The Sealed Book is a secret in the village. It is not easy for us to get it. In order to get the Sealed Book, I
But it took a lot of effort..."
"..."
Umino Iruka suddenly felt that something was not right.
However, Uzumaki Naruto still didn't seem to notice, still looking down at the multiple shadow clone technique recorded in the book of seals, and said with some melancholy: "I'm not good at the clone technique to begin with, how could I possibly learn such a difficult technique?
Shiki…”
"It doesn't matter."
Mizuki patted Uzumaki Naruto's little head and said with a smile: "If you can't learn it, we won't learn it. Anyway, you have worked very hard..."
"ha?"
Uzumaki Naruto looked at Mizuki and asked curiously: "But if you don't learn this technique, won't you be able to graduate..."
"What an innocent and cute little guy!"
Mizuki laughed softly and said with a chuckle: "After today, you will become a sinner in the village. Why do you need to worry about whether you will graduate?"
"sinner?"
Uzumaki Naruto's face wrinkled: "What do you mean?"
"Naruto!"
Umino Iruka grabbed Uzumaki Naruto with one hand.
At this moment, Umino Iruka still didn't know what was going on with Mizuki, but there was definitely something wrong with Mizuki, and Naruto couldn't be put in danger!
However, Umino Iruka's movement was blocked by someone, Mizuki grabbed Umino Iruka's wrist, and Umino Iruka refused to show weakness and wanted to fight with him!
Unexpectedly, Mizuki's physical skills became extremely good, and he easily defeated Umino Iruka's resistance, and kicked Umino Iruka away with one kick!
"Sinners...are sinners..."
Mizuki then looked at Uzumaki Naruto who had a shocked face, and the smile on his face gradually turned ferocious: "Twelve years ago, you committed the same crime, Uzumaki Naruto..."
"shut up!"
Umino Iruka suddenly rushed towards Mizuki!
However, Mizuki flipped his palm, raised his hand and threw several shurikens, directly injuring Iruka severely!
"Let's continue the topic just now..."
"Twelve years ago, the nine-tailed demon fox in your body caused the Nine-Tailed Rebellion in Konoha, which caused heavy losses to the entire Konoha and killed Iruka's parents..."
Mizuki squatted next to Uzumaki Naruto and said cruel words with a smile: "I have always been curious about Iruka's mentality towards you. I don't understand why he takes care of you like this. He thinks
Won’t the Kyuubi inside you go berserk?”
"so…"
Uzumaki Naruto looked at the person in front of him in disbelief.
Is this the reason why he has been ostracized by the people in the village?
Mizuki gently stroked Naruto Uzumaki, whose face was full of shock, confusion and fear, and continued: "So I plan to try to use the technique recorded in the Book of Sealings to unseal the Nine Tails in your body, and then do it again.
Let Iruka see the Nine-Tails Rebellion..."
"Mizuki!"
Umino Iruka suddenly panicked in his heart!
"Actually, this matter is quite difficult..."
Mizuki looked at Umino Iruka, smiled and said: "Because only the Hokage can keep the sealed book, and it cannot be obtained through any other channels... Fortunately, I got a piece of news."
"what news?"
Umino Iruka stared at Mizuki.
"Speaking of which, you should know the source of the news."
Mizuki looked at Umino Iruka and then at Uzumaki Naruto: "Do you still remember the birthday party where the Hokage assisted Akihara Kagura? There was a spy sent by Lord Orochimaru at that party. I got it from there.
Got a piece of news…”
"The higher-ups in the village seem to be planning to ask you to teach Uzumaki Naruto the forbidden art of multiple shadow clones recorded in the Book of Sealings after he fails to pass the test. This is an opportunity to obtain the Book of Sealings..."
"We grew up together. I know that your grades are very poor. It is impossible for you to learn the forbidden techniques of the Book of Sealings. You must bring out the Book of Sealings to teach Naruto, so I tentatively took you and Naruto together.
Try to take away the sealed book, but the person responsible for taking care of it actually gave it to you..."
"..."
Umino Iruka's heart felt like it was falling into an ice cave.
Even Iruka never expected that this news would be heard by Mizuki, and Mizuki even deceived himself into thinking that Mizuki had received the same order!
result…
Mizuki used him to get the sealed book!
This good friend who grew up together is actually so thoughtful!
Umino Iruka never thought that Mizuki would be such a person!
"Now I have the sealed book."
Mizuki spread his palms, looked at the book of seals at his feet, and looked at Uzumaki Naruto next to him, grinning with a ferocious smile: "As long as I learn the techniques of the book of seals, I can use the techniques on it.
Unlocking the Nine-Tails Seal on Naruto will allow Konoha to recall the fear of the Nine-Tails Rebellion twelve years ago!"
"Why do you do this!"
Umino Iruka looked at Mizuki, gritted his teeth and ignored his pain, struggling to pounce: "Why do you do this! You should also know the terror of the Nine-Tails..."
"Of course I know."
Mizuki nodded, but kicked Uzumaki Naruto who was still frightened next to him, and asked: "Then why do you care about this brat? You clearly know that he is a nine-tailed demon fox, and you also know the terror of the nine-tailed fox, and even
Seeing that your parents died in the Nine-Tails Rebellion twelve years ago, why did you think of a way to kill him?"
"..."
Umino Iruka fell silent.
The Chuunin teacher saw Uzumaki Naruto's stunned and panic eyes, and suddenly showed a smile: "Naruto is not a demon fox, Naruto is different, he is an outstanding student recognized by me, the disaster twelve years ago
It wasn’t his fault in the first place…”
"Naruto has always been an innocent child. That little guy is neither smart nor clever, but he can do one thing very focused. He is an excellent student. Many people recognize him, not just me.
people…"
"Iruka-sensei..."
Uzumaki Naruto looked at his teacher absentmindedly.
"This is what I hate most about you."
Mizuki interrupted the exchange between teachers and students in a cold voice, without concealing his disgust: "Always look like a good teacher, as if you are the only most suitable teacher in Konoha. When the village canceled
My teacher qualifications allowed you to enter the ninja school..."
"I…"
Umino Iruka looked at his friend speechless, and said tremblingly: "Mizuki, we are friends, I..."
"Shut up!"
Shuimu interrupted him and said with disgust on his face: "I am friends with you just because you are a weak person who can be exploited. I just didn't expect that you would steal the way I want to go. Every time I see you,
The innocent expression makes me feel sick..."
Mizuki spread out his hands, holding them back and forth like claws and loosening them: "So I want to deal with you in the most painful way...I want you to understand your mistake, and I want all Konoha to do it."
People know the mistakes they make!”
"I want you to regret..."
"I regret your humiliation of me!"
"I will let everyone know that I am the most talented ninja in Konoha, and I will let Lord Orochimaru know that I will help him destroy Konoha!"
"I won't agree!"
Uzumaki Naruto jumped into the air and punched Mizuki: "Iruka-sensei regards you as a friend, how could you do this to him! I will not be used by you to destroy the village!"
"A mere brat!"
Mizuki's movements were extremely fast, and he swung away Uzumaki Naruto's arm almost instantly, and raised his hand to clasp Uzumaki Naruto's neck: "If I didn't still need the Nine Tails in your little brat, I could unscrew it with just a little movement.
Your head…”
After saying that, Mizuki threw Uzumaki Naruto away and sat next to the Sealed Book nonchalantly, flipping through the Sealed Book for the spells he wanted to get.
Mizuki was not worried at all about Uzumaki Naruto trying to escape, and even said coldly: "Kid, don't think about escaping. No one in the village will notice this place. It's still far away from the village. This time you
No matter what, you can't escape from my grasp..."
"..."
Umino Iruka's heart sank to the bottom.
Especially Umino Iruka, a chuunin, he understood how strong Mizuki was in front of him, and neither he nor Uzumaki Naruto was a match!
Umino Iruka never thought that Mizuki would be so terrifying. Not only was his strength far superior to his peers, he even had a scheming mind that was far beyond the reach of ordinary people. He took almost everything into consideration before executing this conspiracy!
If no unexpected factors intervene...
Once Mizuki masters the technique of the Book of Sealing, he will definitely start the Nine-Tails Rebellion!
at this time…
Never give up!
The Nine-Tails Rebellion must never happen again in Konoha!
Even if it costs your life!
However, Umino Iruka had a lot of shurikens stuck in his body, and he could not stand up at all, and he might even die here at any time. Fortunately, Uzumaki Naruto, an ignorant little guy, still knew how to care about him, and rushed over to ask him.
teacher.
"Iruka-sensei, how are you?"
"Naruto…"
Umino Iruka looked at Uzumaki Naruto, then glanced at Mizuki not far away, and finally knew that he had to place his hopes on the student in front of him: "Do you still remember your ideal?"
"certainly!"
"I want to become Hokage!"
"Become the most powerful Hokage!"
Uzumaki Naruto still has his ideal that he has not forgotten: "And to become a Hokage that surpasses previous Hokage! Be recognized by everyone!"
"So…"
Umino Iruka looked at Uzumaki Naruto and whispered: "Do you have the consciousness to sacrifice your life for this? Just like the fourth generation Hokage, during the Nine-Tails Rebellion twelve years ago, for
You sacrificed your life to save the village, do you have this consciousness?"
"have!"
Uzumaki Naruto gritted his teeth with determination.
"Then...it's time..."
Umino Iruka looked at Uzumaki Naruto with an unprecedented serious expression: "Now we must prevent Mizuki from learning the technique to unlock the seal. Did you just see the technique of the multiple shadow clone technique? That technique is a very powerful one.
The magic technique can create many clones..."
"As long as you can use that technique..."
"It will prevent Mizuki from using you to create the Nine-Tails Rebellion..."
"But…"
Uzumaki Naruto was a little hesitant, unable to believe his talent.
Umino Iruka looked at the students in front of him and said in a deep voice: "If you want to do something firmly, you must sacrifice your life and believe that you can do it...Naruto, you have to protect Konoha."
And the consciousness of risking one’s life!”
In addition to learning that technique...
They actually have no choice!
Uzumaki Naruto's other techniques were unqualified, and only his physical fitness test and endurance were good. However, facing Mizuki in front of him, the opponent only needed a few shurikens to interrupt his escape!
"yes!"
Uzumaki Naruto gritted his teeth, raised his fingers, and struggled to recall the multiple shadow clone techniques he had seen.
Perhaps this technique was innately compatible with him, or perhaps it was the determination at this moment. When Uzumaki Naruto raised his fingers to let the chakra flow in his body, countless shadow clones appeared next to Uzumaki Naruto!
"Naruto!"
A flash of joy flashed across the face of the seriously injured Umino Iruka!
Naruto succeeded...
This means that Mizuki's conspiracy has gone unexpectedly!
"Um?"
Mizuki seemed to have just reacted. When he turned around, he saw countless shadow clones of Naruto Uzumaki standing around, and his body trembled involuntarily!
These countless shadow clones gave Uzumaki Naruto great confidence. He believed that so many people were enough to defeat Mizuki and solve the crisis of the Nine-Tails Rebellion!
"Kid..."
"You...you think this can solve me?"
"Then give it a try!"
Countless shadow clones rushed towards Mizuki!
As Mizuki was knocked to the ground by a group of shadow clones, this crisis that may trigger the Nine-Tails Rebellion was doomed to have an ending, or the ending was already doomed before it began.
Outside this training ground.
Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was quietly hiding next to him, watched this scene with a pipe in his mouth. He nodded with rare satisfaction to Akihara Kagura beside him: "This time, you did a good job, but how did you do it?"
Did you make Mizuki agree?"
"It's very simple."
Akihara Kagura did not mention at all that she had asked Tiandao Shisui to use his shadow to control Mizuki. Instead, he reached out and took out Mizuki's confession: "As long as he promises to act well, I can consider leaving his whole body. After all, he committed the crime
Wrong enough to be sent to torture class..."
"This is…"
Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the charges written by Mizuki himself, and he had some expectations in his mind: "It turns out that Mizuki reported that a teammate who died of injuries was killed by him. At that time, I thought that regardless of the life and death of his teammates, I had already ignored him.
He is suitable to become a teacher. I didn’t expect that he would go so far as to kill his teammates..."
When Hiruzen Sarutobi lowered his head and continued reading, when he saw the last one colluding with Orochimaru, he sighed faintly: "This guy Orochimaru has indeed become the biggest danger to Konoha..."
"yes…"
Akihara Kagura nodded, and suddenly said: "However, Mr. Jiraiya thinks Danzo-sama is the most dangerous..."
"..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen was silent and unable to speak.
Both Orochimaru and Danzo Shimura are dangerous to Konoha.
"Let's go."
Hiruzen Sarutobi turned around and said: "Go back and rest early. Tomorrow we will discuss the detachment of these graduates and the candidates to guide Jonin..."
"Where is the sealed book?"
Akihara Kagura looked at the book of seals and asked curiously: "What spells are written in the book of seals? Are there any more powerful spells?"
"No."
Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately dismissed Akihara Kagura's idea and said in a deep voice: "The Book of Sealings is just some forbidden techniques left by the Second Hokage. Its power is far less powerful than the Wood Release of the First Hokage. It doesn't matter to you.
The value of learning…”
Not only are the above forbidden techniques of no value to learn, they may even lead Akihara Kagura astray. There are some living people as sacrifices in the techniques, and Akihara Kagura is not a person who particularly cares about life.
Sarutobi Hiruzen planned to send ANBU immediately to retrieve the Sealed Book when he returned. He did not want Akihara Kagura to see the contents of the Sealed Book.
but…
Akihara Kagura doesn't care either.
Because when arranging the Book of Sealing, I let my subordinates see the contents of the Book of Sealing. It is enough to ask my subordinates to repeat the names of the spells and simple contents on the Book of Sealing. There is no need for those with numerous numbers or even
Steps to learn with pictures.
Third update!
Suddenly I realized that Naruto was doing well...
As long as you graduate, you will have acquaintances everywhere, the teacher is Kakashi, the examiner is Anko...
