The day after the Kumo ninja mission arrived, the Third Hokage met with all the Kumo ninjas.
The two sides discussed the terms of the alliance for nearly a day.
Finally, after Konoha gave up some of its interests, the two parties reached a consensus and agreed to hold an alliance ceremony and exchange documents the next day.
This negotiation process went smoothly beyond imagination.
In the expectation of the high-level officials, they were already prepared for the Cloud Ninja Lion to open his mouth. Unexpectedly, at the negotiation table, the other party's conditions were completely innocuous to Konoha.
Senior executives, including Sarutobi Hiruzen, recognized Kumo Shinobi's sincerity and became more attentive to customer service.
Time soon came to the next day, when the representatives of the Kumo ninja and the Sandaime ascended the high platform of the alliance ceremony together, signed and sealed the document in front of everyone's attention, and completed the exchange.
The moment the exchange ceremony was completed, the entire scene was filled with excitement.
Almost all Konoha ninjas, including Toru Watanabe, have witnessed this historic moment, either openly or secretly.
The alliance with Yun Ren went smoothly beyond imagination.
From the beginning, Yun Ren showed sincerity,
When Toru Watanabe thought about the plot of the original plot, he couldn't help but wonder if it was because of the butterfly effect he had caused that the incident had a new development.
The grand occasion of the alliance ceremony was quickly communicated to the outside world through various channels.
Throughout the day, Konoha was all talking about the Kumo ninja.
Time soon came to evening, and a grand banquet was also held in Konoha, including the third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, and several elders of the elders group also attended.
Yun Ren's group of twelve people was quite a few, including Kaubei, who had not shown up at the hotel yesterday, also appeared at the banquet.
Toru Watanabe naturally didn't know the details of the banquet. After dinner, he went directly to his area to change the guard.
ANBU's patrol mission was a two-shift system. He had been on the day shift for a week, and then there was a week of night shift waiting for him.
After completing the handover with the ANBU on duty, Toru Watanabe disappeared into the darkness to observe the activities in the area.
Time passed by minute by second, and it was midnight in the blink of an eye.
At this moment, the area that Toru Watanabe is responsible for is completely silent, which is in sharp contrast to the noise during the day.
On the first day of shift, Toru Watanabe was more or less sleepy due to his biological clock, but after all, the physical ability of a ninja was not comparable to that of ordinary people. Even if he didn't get enough sleep due to watching the alliance ceremony during the day, he could still remain alert enough at this moment.
Just when Toru Watanabe was on his third patrol, a subtle noise came from a distance.
Watanabe Teru concentrated on identifying the direction of the sound. He moved his body, stepped on the telephone pole on the roadside and reached the top of the pole in three or two steps. Then he jumped again and reached the top of a small building.
Arriving at the commanding heights of the floor, Toru Watanabe looked towards the direction of the Hyuga tribe.
Sure enough, fires kept lighting up in the dark Hyuga clan land, and the sounds became louder and louder. Even from a street away, Toru Watanabe could vaguely hear some shouts.
What was supposed to happen did happen!
Without even having to identify what those voices were shouting, Toru Watanabe knew that it must be the future "Crown Princess" Hinata Hinata who was kidnapped by Kumo Ninja!
Regarding Hinata's kidnapping incident, Toru Watanabe had no intention of getting involved. Anyway, the incident did not happen in the area he was responsible for, and even if he exposed the sky, it had nothing to do with him.
Watanabe Toru stood high and watched the show with peace of mind, while the Hinata mansion was already in chaos.
"Damn it, you came so fast!"
Corby was dressed in black and ran out of Hinata's house.
There was a small figure in his arms, which was the unconscious Hinata Hinata.
"Stop, you have no way to escape, put Hinata down!"
Behind Kaubei, Hinata Hinashi is chasing after him, with white eyes. Even in the dark, any actions of the other party cannot be hidden from his eyes.
Swish!
Two figures blocked Kaubei's path. Kaubui cursed secretly and quickly turned in another direction.
Within a few seconds, Kaubei stopped. In front of him was a high wall, and on top of the high wall, there were ninjas from the Hyuga clan standing on it.
There were constant sounds of footsteps coming from all directions. Kaubei turned around and stared at the approaching Hinata, knowing that he could no longer escape.
Corby took out a kunai and put it against Hinata's throat.
Hinata, who had been unconscious for a long time, knew nothing about this. Hinata took a step forward, Kobei tightened her hand, and a bloodstain suddenly appeared on Hinata's neck.
Hinata stopped and roared:
"Stop it!"
Kaubei did not take any further action, but said with a strange smile:
"As expected of the Hyuga clan, I didn't expect you to notice it so quickly!"
"Your eyes are still so disgusting, I really want to dig them out and crush them!"
Hinata Hizu's eyes were deep and he said with a gloomy face:
"Who are you? Why did you kidnap Hinata? You can tell me what grudges you have against the Hyuga clan. As long as you don't hurt Hinata, I can let you go!"
"Leave?"
Kaubei suddenly roared emotionally,
"Let me go now? Then why didn't you let my father go! Why didn't you let my brother and friends go!"
Kobei suddenly raised the kunai and stabbed Hinata. Hinata and Hinata's pupils shrank, and he smacked it out with a palm from a few meters away!
"Bagua Kongzhang!"
The invisible energy directly hit Kaubei's wrist, and the kunai suddenly fell to the ground. Before the opponent could make another move, Hinata and Hinata instantly passed over.
Bang!
The surging energy hit Kaubei instantly!
Plop,
Kaubei slowly fell down, and Hinata Hinata took a step forward to catch Hinata.
After checking Hinata and finding that she was not seriously injured, Hinata was handed over to the waiter who rushed over. He knelt down and uncovered the black cloth covering Kobiyi's face...
Under the light of the fire, Hyuga Hizu saw the attacker clearly, and then not only him, but also several Hyuga senior executives present fell silent.
The representative of the Cloud Ninja Mission, the Cloud Ninja Jonin Kaubei, they had exchanged a few words at the banquet just a few hours ago.
Trouble...
People who knew Kaubei's identity suddenly had this idea in their minds. Hinata and Hinata clenched their fists tightly. He felt that they had been cheated!
A dignified Jonin was killed in front of him without even resisting. No one would believe it...
Hinata Hinashi was unwilling to check the other person's face several times, but found no trace of disguise.
At this time, his mood sank to the bottom.
On the day the village formed an alliance with Yun Ninja, he killed one of the representatives of Yun Ninja. This is simply unreasonable and cannot be explained...
"Clan leader, let's get rid of him first, otherwise..."
At this time, a Hinata clan elder stood up and said.
There was nothing he could do for now. Just as Hinata and Hinashi were about to nod, a burst of noise suddenly came from outside the gate of the house.
Hinata and the clan elder looked at each other, and immediately had a worse premonition.
Sure enough, a guard ran over to report that the Kumo ninja envoy and a group of ANBU from the village had arrived.
Hinata and Hinata struggled for a while, and finally sighed and said:
"Let them come in. Just answer the questions truthfully. If there is any problem, I will be responsible."
Soon, the door to the Hyuga mansion opened, and a team of Anbu, including Toru Watanabe, and the Kumo ninja envoy walked in.
Watanabe Toru followed the team silently with a pair of dead fish eyes under his mask. Originally, he just wanted to watch the fun, but as soon as something happened on Hinata's side, the Hokage's order came from the joint call.
Kaubei's body was still on the ground, and several people in the cloud ninja showed a look of splitting eyes as soon as they saw it.
Other ANBU members quickly coordinated to stop the Kumo ninja's impulse.
Gridya glanced at Hinata and Hinata with hatred, picked up Kaubei's body and walked out of the house without saying a word.
"This...what the hell is going on?"
The elder of the Hyuga clan was speechless. He knew that this was a conspiracy against Hinata, but he couldn't understand who was behind it and who could benefit from it.
The ANBU leader sighed, and then explained to everyone in the Hyuga clan.
It turns out that the Yun Ninja mission was attacked just now. According to Yun Ninja, Kaubei discovered the attacker and then pursued him all the way.
The attack on Kumo Ninja had such a bad impact that even the Sandaime was woken up overnight.
Following the guidance of Yun Ninja, they came all the way to the Hyuga clan, and then there was the scene that everyone saw.
After hearing ANBU's explanation, Hinata Hizu was speechless.
He understood that this was the conspiracy of the Mist Ninja. From Kaubei's previous words, he knew that Kaubei had a deep hatred for the Hyuga clan.
It is estimated that in the previous war, the other party's family members died at the hands of Hinata.
For this kind of thing, Hinata and Hiashi's discovery and explanation are useless.
The meaning behind the Cloud Ninja Mission is enough to distort all truths.
Even if the Hyuga clan is framed, no matter if they are innocent, if the envoy of Kumo ninja dies in the Hyuga mansion, Hinata must pay the price!
The alliance between Konoha and Kumo ninja is the choice of the times, and peace in the ninja world is the consensus of everyone. Once Hinata stands in front of the torrent of the times, the result is destined to be shattered to pieces!
As a dignified Jonin, Kaubei could be said to have died in the hands of Hinata and Hinata without any resistance.
The fatal injury caused by the soft fist on the opponent's body made it impossible for Hinata and Hinata to refuse even if he wanted to...
Yun Ninja returned to the hotel with Kaubei's body, and all Konoha ninjas who knew about it were silent at this moment.
Yun Ren has not launched an attack yet, but everyone understands that tomorrow is destined to be a tense day filled with swords and swords.
Yun Ren retreated, and everyone else returned to their posts.
The ninjas in charge of the area near the Hyuga clan were called together for questioning, including Toru Watanabe.
"Watanabe, when the Kumo ninja pursued the attacker and came near the Hyuga tribe, didn't you notice it at that time?"
The person who questioned Toru Watanabe was an ANBU wearing a tanuki mask. Although he was also an ANBU, Toru Watanabe was not familiar with him.
Upon hearing the inquiry, Toru Watanabe smiled and said:
"I didn't find anyone suspicious when I was patrolling. I was also present at the Hinata family incident. To say that it was suspicious, it wasn't the Kumo ninja in night clothes who was suspicious!"
The dark part of the civet cat's face knocked on the table and said unhappily:
"Answer whatever is asked of you, and don't answer anything wrong. The truth is never as simple as what you see with your eyes. Even if there is something wrong with the dead Kumo ninja, it's not something you can arrange!"
Hearing this, Toru Watanabe frowned and said unhappily:
"What do you mean, I can't arrange it for Kumo Ninja? I'm just telling the truth. What's wrong with Kumo Ninja? Is Kumo Ninja superior to others? This is obviously the conspiracy of Kumo Ninja. It's fine if you don't expose it, but you still say that it can't be arranged!
”
"As a senior, you let me down so much!"
Snap!
The raccoon cat's ANBU slapped the table hard, stood up and said angrily:
"The matter of Yun Ren is considered by the higher-ups. You just need to cooperate honestly. Where does all this nonsense come from!"
Snap!
Watanabe Toru also slapped the table and stood up,
"What is nonsense? I just respect the truth. I know that the situation of Yun Ren is special at this time, but no matter how special it is, is it important for them to have the truth? Is it important to have fairness?"
The raccoon-faced Anbu quietly watched Toru Watanabe's "going crazy". He stared at Toru Watanabe for a few seconds and said in a cold voice:
"I don't know how you got into Anbu. Anbu ninjas only want obedience, not suspicion!"
"Watanabe, think about it carefully. Go back and reflect in the past few days. When you understand, you can report here again!"
The tanuki-faced ANBU turned around and left. After watching the other party leave the room, Toru Watanabe's expression immediately returned to calm.
The tantrum just now was obviously just an act. In fact, most people were well aware of what Yun Ren did.
At this critical time, everyone is just pretending to be confused, and even understanding the situation is just a matter of going through the procedures.
The reason why Toru Watanabe was pretending to be upright and suddenly broke out just now was because he found that this was a good opportunity, an opportunity to get rid of the ninja profession with an honest excuse.
Watanabe Toru told Yugao before that he wanted to leave Konoha and no longer wanted to be a ninja. If he just messed around and fished, he would probably be deprived of the title of ninja.
But the truth is not as simple as he said!
Konoha Village is not a charity organization. It does not raise orphans like Toru Watanabe just to get them out of Konoha.
Watanabe Toru knows clearly that without the top management, it doesn't matter, and it is simply wishful thinking to want to ruin it.
Once Toru Watanabe tries to do that, he will definitely be assigned to the most dangerous mission.
The most important thing for a ninja to a village is its value. A ninja who wants to leave the village will naturally lose its value.
A being who is worthless and may leak village secrets, the consequences of dealing with it are obvious.
This kind of person will either die in a dangerous mission, or become a traitor and die in the pursuit. There is no other choice.
Originally, Toru Watanabe was still worried about how to leave Konoha, but the kidnapping of Hinata that just happened undoubtedly provided him with an opportunity.
The game of politics has no distinction between right and wrong, only interests.
Yun Ninja's little trick is very obvious, and a discerning person can easily see through it, but what will happen if he sees through it?
From the victims of the Hyuga clan to the third generation of Sarutobi Hiruzen, they all had no choice but to be dumb and willing to admit defeat.
When everyone is pretending to be deaf and dumb without conscience, what will be the result if a stupid young man comes out and insists on standing in front of justice?
Fool!
Everyone will definitely think that this person is a fool who cannot see the situation clearly and cannot take into account the overall situation. They will ridicule him, mock him, and be unhappy with him, but at the same time, they need him!
There is a steelyard in everyone's heart. Even if everyone is on the side of interests due to reality, they still have the idea of standing on the side of justice.
What Toru Watanabe wants to do is to do what others want but cannot do.
As long as he succeeds, he can truly stand on the moral high ground. Even if everyone does not admit it, the justice in their hearts will still recognize Toru Watanabe's status.
When turbidity becomes the norm, innocence becomes a sin.
Although having someone stand on the moral high ground will satisfy some people's psychological pursuit of justice, it will also arouse more hostility.
People who are stuck in the mud will not like the clean people on the shore. If you can't touch him, you will naturally find a way to stay away from him.
With the talisman of moral justice, most people would not want to get rid of Toru Watanabe, because once he kills Toru Watanabe, it means killing justice, justice, and the conscience in everyone's heart. So Toru Watanabe pretends to be upright in order to use people's psychology to create a piece of clothing to protect himself.
If only a few people know that his justice is useless, Toru Watanabe must let more people understand!
The more people know about it, the brighter the moral halo will be!
Compared with other plans to leave Konoha, the opportunity before us is undoubtedly more feasible!
