At the same time that Ningji himself led the Hyuga family members to escape from Konoha, in a residence where the Uchiha clan was stationed, Uchiha Sasuke was sleeping peacefully. He seemed to be having a nightmare, showing distorted and ferocious expressions from time to time. Unconsciously,
In the darkness, there were many ANBU ninjas staring closely at him.
The situation is almost the same as that of Uchiha Sasuke. In another house in Konoha, Uzumaki Naruto was lying on the bed with his back stretched out, and he was also sleeping soundly. He obviously had nothing to worry about. Although his sleeping appearance was not good, he was obviously asleep.
It smelled very good, and there were many ANBU ninjas watching from the dark.
But suddenly, a ball of chakra emerged from the ground, wrapped Uzumaki Naruto, and dragged him directly into the ground. The same thing happened in the house where the Uchiha clan was stationed. A ball of chakra emerged from the ground and dragged him into the ground.
Uchiha Sasuke was wrapped up and dragged underground in an instant, so fast that none of the ANBU ninjas monitoring him in the dark could react.
By the time he realized it, there was no trace of Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto in the room.
Looking at the empty room, several ANBU ninjas who knew how to escape from the earth and reflected the fish in the earth quickly performed this technique and sank to the ground, chasing the enemy. Other ninjas who did not know how to escape from the earth appeared in the room and took a closer look.
room, trying to find some clues, and two ninjas each quickly headed towards the Hokage Building.
The jinchūriki, the only Uchiha orphan in the village, was snatched away. He did not disappear. He must report it to the Hokage immediately!
It was late at night, but Hiruzen Sarutobi was still handling government affairs at the Hokage Building. After all, he held the power of a village and the entire village depended on him to run. How could he dare to rest?
After finishing another matter, Sarutobi Hiruzen took a puff of his pipe. Suddenly, he frowned and looked at the ground in front of the room. Chakra was fluctuating there. A masked figure appeared and kneeled respectfully.
Kneel down.
The moment he saw the figure appear, Sarutobi Hiruzen's face darkened. Isn't this the ANBU he sent to keep an eye on Naruto's little guy?
However, before Sarutobi Hiruzen could ask questions, another wave of chakra appeared, and another masked figure appeared in the room. Isn't this the ANBU ninja he sent to monitor Uchiha Sasuke?
Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart skipped a beat. Two ANBU ninjas showed up in his office without reporting anything. There must be something extremely urgent and important.
Then why is it so urgent? A thought came to Sarutobi Hiruzen's mind, could it be that there was something wrong with that little guy Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke?
The ANBU ninja who appeared in the room first reported: "Hokage-sama, it's not good, Uzumaki Naruto has been snatched away!"
What? Something happened to that little guy Naruto?
Before Sarutobi Hiruzen could express his surprise, another ANBU ninja also said: "Hokage-sama, Uchiha Sasuke has also been snatched away!"
The two most important little guys in Konoha were snatched away. Who snatched them away? Was it someone from outside the village or someone within the village? Could it be that the old guy Danzo couldn't help but take action?
No, it can't be Danzo!
As an old friend for many years, Sarutobi Hiruzen knew Shimura Danzo very well, even better than Danzo himself. Otherwise, he would not have been able to suppress Danzo for so many years and let him remain Konoha's great Hokage, and Danzo
But it can only be the darkness of Konoha.
With Danzo's temper and courage, it is impossible to do this under his nose!
But since it’s not Danzo, then who is it?
Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart was racing, and one suspect after another popped up in his mind. At the same time, he quickly took a pen and wrote a transfer order on a special piece of paper, and threw it to the ANBU ninja who came to report Uchiha Sasuke: "
Take it to the ANBU and summon people to recover Uchiha Sasuke immediately. There is only one request: you must see him alive, you must see his body dead, and Uchiha Sasuke must not be allowed to be taken out of Konoha!"
"Yes, Hokage-sama!"
The ANBU ninja received the order and disappeared from the room in an instant.
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at another ANBU ninja, stood up from his seat, and said: "Take me immediately to the place where Uzumaki Naruto disappeared!"
Compared to Uchiha Sasuke, Uzumaki Naruto is obviously more important. Uchiha Sasuke is just a tool used to restrain Uchiha Itachi, while Uzumaki Naruto is the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki, Konoha's most powerful war weapon.
Uchiha Sasuke can be thrown away or die, and the worst he can do is fall out with Uchiha Itachi, but Uzumaki Naruto cannot. If the Kyuubi falls into the hands of other ninja villages...
Sarutobi Hiruzen used his toes to figure out what those guys would do, and attacked Konoha with the Nine Tails and another tailed beast. Konoha would definitely not be able to withstand it now!
When heading to Uzumaki Naruto's residence, Sarutobi Hiruzen also learned from the ANBU ninja how Uzumaki Naruto disappeared: "You mean that Uzumaki Naruto was sleeping on the bed and was dragged underground under your noses?"
The ANBU ninja said seriously: "Hokage-sama, my subordinates are absolutely not telling lies!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "I believe you! But to be able to take someone away under your eyes without you noticing, that person's strength should not be underestimated, at least he is extremely accomplished in earth escape. Like this
There are not many earth escape techniques in the ninja world..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned. Just as he said, if he could take someone away under the eyes of many Anbu, that person would have very high attainments in earth escape. Looking at the ninja world, there are not many people who can be found, but the one who can be found.
It is impossible for a few of them to come to Konoha to rob people.
It was probably the same person, or the same group of people, who robbed Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke, but who was this person (this group of people)?
Sarutobi Hiruzen was full of questions. He came to Uzumaki Naruto's bedroom and asked the ANBU ninja who was still checking the room: "Did you find anything?"
An ANBU ninja replied: "Back to Hokage-sama, I didn't find anything. The other party suddenly appeared from the underground, wrapped Naruto Uzumaki with his chakra, and quickly escaped into the underground!"
After hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi prepared to check it out personally. He was known as the "Professor of Ninjutsu". He was very proficient in the five attribute ninjutsu of fire, wind, thunder, earth and water, so he should be able to see some clues.
Just when Sarutobi Hiruzen was about to check himself, an ANBU ninja suddenly appeared in the room. Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart skipped a beat again. Something had happened, right?
The new ANBU ninja quickly reported to Sarutobi Hiruzen: "Hokage-sama, something bad has happened. Many branches of the Hyuga clan have disappeared!"
What?
Not only Sarutobi Hiruzen was shocked, but the other ANBU ninjas in the room were also shocked. The Hyuga Branch family was engraved with the Caged Bird Curse Seal and was firmly controlled by the Sovereign family. How could it disappear?
Even if someone robs them for their Byakugan, it is meaningless, because as long as the caged bird is not released, the Hyuga clan can destroy the branch's Byakugan at any time.
This kind of thing can be solved by the Hyuga clan themselves!
But now that this ANBU ninja has come to report, the matter is definitely not that simple. Could it be that the Hyuga clan failed to solve it, so they reported it to him, the Hokage, hoping that he would investigate it clearly?
