The orange-yellow figure flashed through the forest. Naruto's nerves were tense. He yelled and urged the team to move forward faster. His urgency was palpable. Sakura and Kakashi also did not hesitate and stayed behind.
, with a very solemn look on his face.
Only Yamato was not as nervous as the other three, but perhaps because of the atmosphere, his expression was extremely solemn, and his pace was not slow at all, following the three teammates at full speed.
This morning, Team 7 received news: Sasuke suddenly appeared in the northern part of the Land of Fire, seemingly looking for something.
Three years later, the former companion showed up again, and the location was not far from the village. With the style of Team 7, naturally he would not turn a blind eye. Kakashi immediately informed Naruto and Sakura to prepare to complete the unfinished matters that year:
That is, bring back Sasuke.
As for the new teammate Yamato, Tsunade specially arranged to come here to prevent Kyuubi from making mistakes.
"Captain Kakashi, is the information accurate?" Yamato glanced at Naruto who was hurriedly walking in front of him, and calmly approached Kakashi, maintaining a steady speed, and asked in a low voice.
"There is more than one eyewitness, and it is absolutely accurate."
Kakashi didn't look at Yamato, he just said a simple sentence and let it go.
More than ten meters above Class 7, the white clone was flying in the air, following the four people condescendingly, while slowly gathering the scattered bodies, and said to himself in a slightly strange way:
"The two pillars have come to the Land of Fire? What are they doing? Is it possible that without Orochimaru as a backer, are you planning to return to Konoha?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the white clone felt that this guess was a bit unreliable, and thought that there was nothing important to do now, so he continued to follow Team 7, intending to see what kind of drama this was.
These original characters are not robots and will only operate according to a "fixed process." Since their arrival has affected the original plot, it may be necessary to observe what kind of trouble they can make next.
To be honest, it was rare for her to become interested.
At the right time, in a small town about forty miles away from Konoha Village, Sasuke walked out of the wine shop, stood there, tightened the buckle of the cloak on his chest, lowered the brim of his hat, and looked at the water coming from behind without looking back.
Moon Road:
"We are being watched, those people..."
With his peripheral vision, he glanced at a few faintly passing figures at the corner of the street. He noticed the dark green color. Sasuke's eyes flashed and he said softly: "They should all be Konoha ninjas."
Suigetsu, who was also dressed like a ronin, couldn't help grinning when he heard this, and responded with a smile: "After all, we are near Konoha Village. It is normal for Konoha to have more ninjas."
"Sasuke, what are you going to do?" A thick voice sounded, and Jugo's tall figure appeared beside Sasuke, his expression seemed calm and calm.
"Ignore them, my target is Weasel from beginning to end."
At the mention of Itachi, a flash of deep hatred flashed in Sasuke's eyes, but he quickly hid it and returned to calm. If Xiang Ling hadn't observed carefully, he might have missed this scene.
Pressing his fingertips on his glasses, the lenses flickered with a gleam of light. He stepped in front of Sasuke and said seriously: "I didn't sense Itachi's chakra around me, Sasuke, he should have left."
"Yeah……"
Sasuke was silent for a moment, and then ordered calmly: "Continue to contact Kabuto, I want to obtain Itachi's next move."
Xiang Ling nodded, and then he and Jugo took action. First, they prepared the communication code, and then Jugo controlled the bird and ordered it to rush to the predetermined location. At that time, Kabuto would transmit the information back.
To this day, the Orochimaru Group has finally split with the death of its leader. Among them, Sasuke has roped in the three Suigetsu people to form the Eagle Team in the original work, while Guren and another group of sound ninja leaders have
Become a bounty ninja.
As for Kabuto...
Because the murderer of Orochimaru was no longer Sasuke, Kabuto, after declining Sasuke's invitation, acted alone, planning to huddle in a hidden base and continue to study the various forbidden techniques left by Orochimaru.
During this process, he also had some limited cooperation with the Eagle Squad.
For example, Sasuke provided Kabuto with part of Haku's body, and Kabuto used his connection with Scorpion to obtain some confidential information about the Akatsuki organization by selling the experimental data collected by Orochimaru, and provided it to Sasuke.
Among them, Uchiha Itachi is currently in the Land of Fire, wandering around the area around Konoha Village with unknown motives.
………………
Deep in the mountainous forest, in the middle of the rugged mountain road, two figures wearing black and red cloud robes walked slowly forward. One was tall and the other was thin. They were the Junan combination of the Akatsuki organization, Uchiha Itachi and
Dried persimmon Kisame.
"Itachi-kun, your brother seems to have been looking for you lately."
"I know."
"Aren't you going to take the initiative and do something?"
"..."
Itachi remained silent as expected, his expression as cold and indifferent as ever. Kisame raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a faint smile. Even though his partner ignored him, he still said with great interest:
"Three years have passed, and the relationship between you brothers is still as explosive as ever..." As he spoke, he glanced at Itachi without any trace, and seeing that he didn't respond, Kisame sighed again:
"But think about it, as a traitor and a member of the Hand Blade clan, it is absolutely normal for Sasuke to hate you." Sensing the melancholy in Kisame's tone, Itachi's eyes flashed slightly, but he still said nothing.
"There's just something I think I need to remind you..."
After a pause, he saw that Itachi was still silent, but Kisame didn't pay attention. He still said as if talking to himself: "The mission goal this time is different from the past, Itachi-kun, no matter what plan you have, please...
…It’s better to be careful.”
"What do you think?"
Although Kisame's attitude was very calm and his tone of voice was always a discussion tone, Itachi, who knew the other person's character well, knew very well: Kisame was extremely rare to express dissatisfaction.
Itachi understood the source of Kisame's dissatisfaction. It was precisely because the two of them did not hide their whereabouts, at least, they did not hide it from the inside. The Sapphire Team and Mikita Team who were also performing this mission knew their specific locations.
As a companion who gets along day and night, just as Itachi understands Kisame, Kisame also understands him: Such a careless style is definitely not something Suzaku of Akatsuki can do, so...
The ferret must be fishing without leaving any trace for some purpose.
And that fish is naturally Sasuke.
However, as mentioned above...
This mission was extremely dangerous. Itachi's behavior was like dancing on the tip of a knife. If Kisame didn't respect him very much, he wouldn't have gone along with him to fool around.
