Sure enough, the man heard a slight sound of liquid freezing coming from his shoulder, as if something was about to come out from under the skin.
"Don't be like this, Ninja-sama! I really don't know anything!"
After looking at the man coldly for a few seconds and seeing that he really didn't lie, Minazuki Kyo let him go.
"Don't let me know that you lied to me!"
"I don't dare, I don't dare!"
Feeling his shoulders gradually calming down, the man let out a long sigh of relief. He retracted his neck into his collar and smiled beggingly.
"That's not right!" How could Kurama Masaaki be careless about a ruthless person that even Uchiha was afraid of seeing the moon: "How could Hara Yoshi Kamyo leave him to deal with us?"
"Quickly retreat!"
Enzo Shimura suddenly felt something was wrong and quickly shouted to Kurama Masakiyoshi and Minazuki Kyo.
The three of them did not dare to hesitate and prepared to break through the door and leave.
At this moment, four Genbu who were guarding the door suddenly ran in.
"It's not good! Outside, outside now...!" one of them said in a panic.
In fact, he didn't need to say anything, Kurama Masaki had already seen the scene outside clearly through the wide open door.
The rockets piercing the night sky were like long red snakes, dragging their pale yellow tail flames towards the study room where they were.
In this way, they were trapped between a dilemma, unable to move forward or retreat. If they went out, they would face countless fire arrows, and if they stayed in the room, they would be burned alive.
"What should we do? Enzo-sama!" a root couldn't help but urge.
What to do? It’s hard to do... Enzo Shimura couldn’t think of any good way to deal with it for a while, so he had to shake his head helplessly.
This time he didn't think carefully and took the plunge!
"Blame me!"
Minazuki Kyo drooped his head and blamed himself. If it weren't for him, everyone should follow Uchiha Mitsuki's instructions to go find the Narumi. There would be so many things there.
"Wait a minute, I know a tunnel! If you can trust me, come with me!"
A man who looks very much like Hara Yoshikamiyo remembers that there is a secret passage in this room leading to the council hall.
typical?
The three of them hesitated for a while and quickly made a decision. Compared to large-scale battles, ninjas are more suitable to fight in an environment like secret passages. Even if they encounter an ambush, it is better than the current situation.
"lead the way!"
"Yes! This is Ninja-sama!"
After receiving Enzo Shimura's reply, the man led everyone in Konoha to a row of bookcases in the corner, then bent down and took out a book on the second floor.
Immediately afterwards, the sound of a mechanism turning came from the ground, and a yellowed wooden board opened downwards, revealing a large black square hole.
"Let's go!" Looking at the study that was already on fire, Enzo Shimura rushed in first: "It's safe for now! Hurry!"
"Get in!"
Kurama Masaki threw the man into the black hole and jumped down, followed closely by Minazuki Kyo and the four roots.
…
In the tunnel, as soon as a root took out a torch and tried to light a torch, Kurama Masakichi stopped him.
"What's wrong?"
"Don't click, the air here smells wrong! There may be flammable and explosive gases that Master Miyue mentioned."
"...Ah, is that so?"
The root member suddenly felt a little hot on his face. As Danzo's right-hand man, such a common-sense mistake should not be made.
"This kind of gas is very common in underground areas that have been sealed for a long time."
As a teaching assistant, Kurama Masaki learned a lot of strange knowledge from Uchiha Mitsuki.
"Um……!"
The young man's simple words gave the man who had made the mistake a step down, which moved him deeply.
He is indeed that Lord's confidant... Thinking of Uchiha Mitsuki, his heart was filled with warmth.
He will never forget the young man's teachings.
[Wearing the mask, you are the darkness supporting the village; taking off the mask, you are the ones bathing in the sunshine.]
Over the years, even though he has devoted himself to the darkness, he and other root partners have never been confused. They are both sharp blades hidden under the light and ordinary people who have turned away from the darkness.
"Hey! Don't hang around, it's time to go!"
"Oh, here it comes!"
The laggard roots strode to catch up.
…
After walking in the dark tunnel for a long time, Minazuki Kyo, who had the strongest sense of direction, discovered the problem.
"We seem to be lost!"
"Well... you're right."
Enzo Shimura, who had long felt that something was not right, nodded.
"You're not telling the truth?"
Kurama Masakiro turned his head and looked at the man beside him.
"I..." The man seemed to be frightened, and replied tremblingly: "I just saw Hara Yoshijindai enter here..."
"Alas...!" Kurama Masaki had a headache, but he soon focused on how to get out: "This place seems to have been built not long ago."
After touching the bricks on the wall, Kurama Masaki came to a conclusion.
Newly built?
Shimura Enzo imitated Kurama Masaki and confirmed it.
"It's a new one!" He soon found the answer from the touch of the bricks: "In this way, maybe we can find a path through the old and new bricks."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Soon, Minazuki Kyo made a discovery.
"come here!"
Hearing the sound, everyone came closer.
Minazuki Kyo first pointed to the wall on the left side of the passage, then pointed to the wall on the right and said, "There are old bricks here, old bricks over there, but there are new bricks inside."
"Kyo, you did a great job!" Enzo Shimura praised.
"Then let's start from here!"
While talking, Kurama Masaki summoned the shadow clones and sent them to explore the way. Seeing this, everyone stood there and waited.
Ten minutes later, Kurama Masaki had another memory in his mind.
"This is……!"
The memory transmitted back by the shadow clone made his pupils suddenly shrink to a point.
"What's wrong!" Seeing the boy's reaction, Enzo Shimura asked quickly.
"There is a stone room ahead, and there is a corpse in it."
"What happened to the body?"
Enzo Shimura was confused when he heard this.
"This corpse is wearing Daimyo's clothes!"
"???"
Everyone suddenly felt chilled all over. This news was really chilling!
If that is the real name, then the situation in Windfire City has developed in an unpredictable direction.
Kurama Masaaki thought for a while and decided to confirm: "Let's go to the front and have a look!"
"good!"
This answer is very important to Konoha, and Enzo Shimura will naturally not object.
"You take the lead! And don't think about escaping! You should know very well that your body is still under my control."
At this time, Minazuki Kyo pushed the Daimyo's substitute to the front. From now on, he will stare at the substitute in front of him the whole time until he is killed by him.
But... I don't know why... Minazuki Kyo always feels that things are not that simple.
