Kakashi observed everyone's condition and nodded with satisfaction.
After leading the team into the Hokage's office building, Kakashi and the others soon stood in front of the Sandaime's desk.
In addition to themselves, Kakashi and the others discovered that there was a ninja wearing a black robe and a mask beside the Sandaime.
Judging from the other party's dress, it looks similar to the ANBU style, but Kakashi has never seen the other party in the ANBU.
He guessed that this person was either a newly promoted ANBU or a root under Danzo's command.
Looking at the masked man next to the Sandaime, Kakashi and the others couldn't recognize him, but Tetsu Watanabe recognized him at a glance!
This guy is the bodyguard of the Aburame clan next to Danzo. When he became a manager, he even fought against him!
Danzo's men appeared next to Hokage, which made Toru Watanabe feel a little strange!
Thinking about the other party's method of controlling insects, Toru Watanabe had a bad premonition!
"You are here!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded to Kakashi, then took out a stack of documents from the drawer and handed it to Kakashi.
Kakashi opened the file and looked at it without saying a word. Before Kakashi could look at it for a few minutes, Sarutobi Hiruzen said to everyone in Kakashi's team:
"The Mist Ninja and the Sand Ninja have confirmed that they have secretly reached an alliance. Their previous actions in the Bear Country were unexpected, and they did not delay for too long."
"This is not good news for us Konoha. The alliance of the two major forces, and geographically we Konoha is between the two, will inevitably be suppressed by it."
"Their alliance this time is no small matter. According to reliable information, the Mist Ninja and the Sand Ninja have signed an intelligence sharing agreement. This agreement is aimed at exchanging intelligence and using intelligence comparison to eliminate suspicious persons within them." p>
"In the current situation, our intelligence personnel who have infiltrated into both countries will face great danger, so this mission is to eliminate the task forces of the two countries and cut off their intelligence transmission systems!"
At this time, Kakashi had already finished browsing the contents of the file. Hiruzen Sarutobi said to Kakashi seriously:
"There are already other teams in the Kingdom of Wind carrying out missions, so I plan to leave the interception in the Kingdom of Water to you! Kakashi, are there any questions?"
Kakashi put the documents back into the bag, raised his head and looked at the Sandaime, and said seriously:
"I will do my best to complete the task!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen said:
"This information is just a basic information. For more detailed information, you need to enter the Kingdom of Water to contact the informant!"
"Due to the special circumstances, I give you full authority to act on this mission. If you fail to prevent the intelligence from leaving, you can contact me through Zhonglian, and I will send garrison troops to cooperate with your actions!"
Kakashi responded:
"Kakashi understands!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded and shifted his gaze to Itachi:
"Itachi, your first mission as an ANBU is A-level. If it were anyone else, I would naturally not worry. However, as a genius of the Uchiha clan, I believe you are fully capable of cooperating with Kakashi to complete this mission!"<
/p>
"And there are Yugao and Watanabe in the team. As seniors, they have the experience you lack the most. Only by learning from everyone's strengths can you be the fastest to stand alone!"
"I understand, Hokage-sama!"
Uchiha Itachi replied respectfully.
Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes turned to Uzuki Yugao and Toru Watanabe. After his eyes paused on the latter for a moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi continued:
"Xiyan and Watanabe, you are already the best intelligence ninjas. Even Ibiki, who has the most demanding personality, can't find any problems with you."
"With you joining Kakashi's team, this team will have no flaws. You have the true will of fire. I believe your potential is more than this. Just let me see your growth!"
"I will definitely not disappoint Hokage-sama!"
Watanabe Toru and Xi Yan shouted together.
Sarutobi Hiruzen picked up the pipe with a satisfied look on his face.
His eyes passed over Aburame Ryoma inadvertently. The latter stood quietly aside, like a piece of wood. However, in Sarutobi Hiruzen's field of vision, Aburame Ryoma's right hand hidden in the black robe was constantly changing gestures.
Just bad bugs crawled silently through the cracks in the floor and onto the feet of Kakashi and the others.
As Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen rarely encourages his subordinates one by one like this. He did this this time largely to cooperate with Aburame Ryoma.
Aburame Ryoma's parasitic bug recorded the chakra of the administrator. After eliminating the most suspicious people, even if the remaining ones seemed impossible, just in case, Sarutobi Hiruzen agreed to Danzo's suggestion.
It is recommended to start a thorough investigation.
On the investigation list, Toru Watanabe and Kakashi's names were clearly on the list.
However, as a Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi would not blatantly censor his ANBU subordinates.
You must know that once trust is broken, it can never be repaired, so after careful consideration, Sarutobi finally decided to adopt this method!
He will check all suspects one by one.
Not only Ryoma Aburame, but also several members of the Hyuga clan who were arranged by him next door to the Hokage's office!
The Byakugan of the Hyuga clan can see through and see through chakra.
Infinite Internet communication must have accumulated a lot of chakra so far, and I think the manager will most likely have a way to use that chakra.
As long as a chakra abnormality is found in the village, it is likely to be the manager himself!
This arrangement involves Aburame Ryoma on the surface, and the Hyuga clan behind it. If no clues are found after such a two-pronged approach, there are only two scenarios!
Either the manager has a very strong concealment method and can hide it from everyone, or there is a problem with the direction of the investigation, and the manager is not a ninja in the village at all!
These two situations, no matter which one they are, mean that Konoha has no way to deal with the managers.
Konoha Zhonglian was impacted by the forum, resulting in previous orders having little effect!
The vast majority of ninjas in the village use wireless Internet. If they can't find a manager, the village will have to find another way to implement the forum function!
But realizing such a function is not easy. Even if Hiruzen Sarutobi knew all the working principles of 'Skynet', he would not be able to find a way to develop the forum function!
In many cases, inspiration is far greater than hard work. What Konoha lacks now is the inspiration to realize the 'Forum'!
The four parasites silently climbed up everyone's trousers. At this moment, Kakashi's team also retreated from the Hokage's office after receiving the order.
"There are actually bugs. It seems that I have really been corrupted by literature!"
As soon as he went out, Kakashi stared at the dead fish eyes and shook the corner of his clothes fiercely. A small black insect fell to the ground. Kakashi took a step casually and stepped on it.
“It’s normal to have bugs at this time!”
Xiyan said with a smile that she didn't find the bug unusual, she just thought it was an ordinary bug.
When she was training swordsmanship in the forest, all kinds of flying insects were so common that even if they got on her body, it was inevitable.
Watanabe Tetsuya has long discovered the parasitic bug, and now he just pretends that he doesn't know about it.
When he dispatches clones, he always uses the chakra in the terminal, and his information will not be exposed at all. Even if the parasite records the chakra of the clone, it will not be found on the main body.
Itachi calmly crushed the parasitic insect hidden in his hand to death. He didn't know the function of this small insect, but he thought it was definitely not a good thing!
It's that man!
Itachi guessed that these bugs were most likely the hands and feet of Aburame Ryoma, but he couldn't figure out why the other party would do such a thing under the Hokage's nose!
And whether the Sandaime discovered this or acquiesced in this matter, he didn’t have an answer for a while!
"Kakashi? Itachi?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned deeply after listening to Aburame Ryoma's report and said:
"Are you sure?"
Aburame Ryoma shook his head: "I can only say that there is suspicion. Kakashi and Itachi killed the parasites without waiting for them to react. Their chakra was not collected, so I am not sure." p>
"However, Tohru Toru should be able to rule out the suspicion. The other party did not find the parasitic bug. The information fed back by the parasitic bug later showed that the other party's chakra did not match the manager!"
