Anime Heroine Who Travels Through the Blackened Way

Obviously, even Orochimaru cannot say that he likes to run around all the time. It is natural to have some fixed laboratories. For him, valuable items are nothing more than knowledge of forbidden arts and excellent materials. That’s all. But since he is now cooperating with Mercury Lamp, he naturally has some important information that has been preserved.

These materials are obviously not suitable for being swallowed and stored in the stomach, so Orochimaru can only follow the old path of placing a safe on the wall, and the mercury lamp is here to recycle or destroy some materials that are not suitable for appearing, but... .

The safe was empty, as clean as an empty box that had been licked by a dog, like a mocking face, silently mocking the mercury lamp that turned it on.

The expression on Mercury Lamp's face froze for less than two seconds, and then she took a deep breath subconsciously. Obviously, she had not thought of this. It could be seen that Orochimaru was not only dead, but also... Even after he died, he was still holding his teammates back.

And the most important thing is really...

"The domesticated little white rabbit looks like he is ready to jump out of the cage."

——————————

Inside the Hokage's office, a small weekly meeting was being held.

"The lack of decisiveness will put the village into crisis, Tsunade-hime, you should know this very well."

Koharu's lukewarm tone when he went to bed always had a condescending sense of criticism, which made Tsunade, who was sitting in her seat, frown in displeasure: "Of course I know this, but if I don't If we pursue the case, what should we do if something like this happens again?”

Now that the war alert has been lifted, it is natural that Konoha and Kumogakure will temporarily reconcile. At least on the surface, both sides have evacuated the security forces on the border in batches. This makes the merchants of the Fire Country and the Thunder Country They all breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously, and then resumed normal transactions again.

However, now Tsunade has a conflict with the elders on one matter.

That is, whether to continue to pursue the truth about Naruto's kidnapping.

"This kind of investigation is meaningless. First of all, Uzumaki Naruto has returned to the village, and he will send more guards in the future. Moreover, outsiders do not know the news that he is the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki. If we continue to dig deeper, it will be difficult to ensure that we can continue to cover up this The secret will become a threat to him by then."

Mito Menen also did not intend to go into details. The old elder pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose indifferently: "As for the Amegakure Village, just give appropriate warnings and censures. After all, they are allies of Konoha, and according to Uzumaki As Naruto said, they didn't realize that Naruto was the Jinchūriki of the Nine-Tails, so we don't need to push Sansho Hanzo too hard."

Obviously, the starting point of the two elders is quite realistic: it is extremely common for ninjas to infiltrate and destroy each other. If it weren't for the fact that this time in Yunyin Village, they not only had to catch up with Darui, the next generation of Raikage. The heir, as well as the returning personnel and the mission issuer were all assassinated, and the Fourth Raikage would never respond to Konoha's accountability.

After all, this is what everyone is doing, and if one of their important people is arrested, it can only mean that you in Konoha are not thinking carefully and are missing a move. What's more, the target Ahri is just an ordinary civilian. Even if he is an idol, he still has no foundation. If he is caught, he will be caught. The worst is that Konoha will send someone to kidnap him back.

Of course, if Ahri could marry a noble of the Fire Country, her status would be different, but unless she could marry a close bloodline of a Fire Country daimyo, it would still not count as anything.

And Konoha still protects Naruto's jinchuriki identity very well. At least so far, few outsiders know this secret, not to mention that no one knows his identity as the son of the Fourth Hokage. In this case The most important thing is that he can return to Konoha safely.

Finally, Payne's confidentiality work is also very good. At least so far, the entire ninja world is still convinced that Amegakure Village is under the control of Sanshouyu Hanzo. Even the closest Konoha Village executives think so.

This is complete personal prestige. You must know that Sansho Hanzo was an old monster who singled out the young Sannin of Konoha in his heyday, and completely won one on three. For a guy with this kind of strength, you say he was beaten by a famous person. The little-known kid was killed? ?

Therefore, even though Sansho Hanzo has almost never appeared in person over the years, as a ninja, keeping a low profile is the foundation of his career. In addition, Payne still pretends to be Sansho Hanzo to properly communicate with the outside world, so no one knows that he is actually dead. Thoroughly.

That is to say, for all the reasons mentioned above, Koharu and Mito Kaden who were transferred to another dormitory did not support the continued investigation. In their eyes, this was just a very ordinary kidnapping mission, and they just happened to kidnap the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki. And now that the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki has returned safely, there is no need to continue to fight.

But Tsunade obviously doesn't think so. For her, this kidnapping is a major crisis that scares her, and it has implicated two other large ninja villages. This situation cannot be explained by 'coincidence' , or at least let Sanshouyu Hanzo meet in person to explain.

However, no matter how you look at it, asking the leader of a ninja village to come forward to explain for the sake of a 'kagi' is beyond the cognitive scope of Koharu and Mito Menen, especially after they have just experienced such a situation with Kumogakure Village. Unpleasant exchanges, if Sansho Hanzo thinks Konoha has evil intentions at this time and switches to Iwagakure or Kumogakure, then this will be the worst development for Konoha. After all, Yuyin Village is located at the intersection of the borders of the three great powers: Fire, Earth, and Thunder. This geographical location may become a death zone for attacks by groups, or it may be a bridgehead for one of the great powers to gain the upper hand. .

Therefore, Mito Kado and Koharu Kadeni do not intend to continue pursuing the case, and they want to cancel all detection missions to Amegakure Village during this period. Although it sounds very frustrating, this is a political compromise.

"But, should we just leave it like this? What, is Yuyin Village really the lair of the Akatsuki organization?"

Gritting her teeth, Tsunade bitterly tried to make a final argument. However, what greeted her was only a cold sentence from Koharu who went to bed: "It's ridiculous. When there is no precise information, I don't think you should have such thoughts. Let’s stop there.”

"Unless someone can provide definite evidence, let's talk about this."

The choice of hatred

How far hatred can make people go is something that will never be answered. The answer will be different for different situations and individuals.

However, only one thing is certain...that is, whether this hatred can be enough to allow him to unscrupulously destroy the happiness of others.

Sasuke, who was sitting cross-legged in the bedroom of the Uchiha mansion, suddenly raised his eyebrows slightly, and then opened his eyes. After seeing the figure standing at the door clearly, the young man's usually cold eyebrows suddenly seemed to have a hint of slightness. He was surprised, and then quickly suppressed it, but that feeling really made his brows seem to soften a bit.

"You're back. Do you want something to eat?"

Standing up, Sasuke's words were very normal. He didn't ask about the other person's situation outside, but asked the question in a normal way to welcome the other person home. Obviously, as a person who is arrogant himself, Erzhuzi knows very well that there is no need to ask more about these external things.

The person standing at the door was Izumi Uchiha. Compared with two years ago, her figure still had not grown much, but the weathered look between her eyebrows was much heavier. Without answering, Izumi Uchiha strode straight in front of Sasuke, and then raised her hand to lift off the collar of Sasuke's left shoulder. Her action made the latter slightly stunned, but he soon understood what she meant. mean.

"It didn't disappear..."

Staring at the left back of Sasuke's neck, Uchiha Izumi's voice also had a hint of anxiety: "I have obviously killed Orochimaru, but the curse mark he put on you has not disappeared. It seems that the cunning one has The teacher still left some backup."

"...Anxiety, this thing can't do anything to me anyway."

Raising his hands to cover his collar, Sasuke did feel a little shocked. After all, Orochimaru was an enemy who once appeared in the forest of death with a powerful appearance. For Sasuke, he was basically an early BOSS, but from Uchiha Izumi In his words, the other party had been killed, and the person who took action was undoubtedly this sister Quan.

"Forget it, I'll find another way."

Shaking her head, Izumi Uchiha looked at Sasuke again, and there was a hint of emotion in her eyes: "You have grown taller, but I don't seem to have grown at all."

"A sister will always be a sister, not because of her height."

After hesitating for a while, Sasuke said: "You're back just in time. That guy Naruto has been saying he wants to treat me to dinner these days. If you're not busy..."

"Haha, I understand. Wait for me to take a shower and change clothes. You can answer him first. I just came back and I'm a little hungry."

Izumi Uchiha understood Sasuke's words quite well.

She knew what this boy who regarded her as his sister was thinking. It was very simple. Sasuke should have never responded to Naruto's invitation before. The reason was also very simple: he didn't want to go to see Naruto without the company of his family. 'Mother' Naruto.

Therefore, after discovering that Izumi Uchiha was back, Sasuke made a rare and urgent request that Izumi Uchiha accompany him to the dinner party.

Fortunately, the other party did not disappoint him.

After leaving Sasuke's room, Uchiha Izumi's face darkened again. She returned to her room silently, and then took out a rather ordinary-looking notepad from the ninja bag on her waist. On the cover of this notepad, a large word "Fox" is clearly visible.

There is no doubt that this is what Izumi Uchiha obtained from the safe in the wall after killing Orochimaru, and this was not a temporary idea on her part.

Two years ago, it was not only the time when Uchiha Izumi agreed to train under Orochimaru in order to improve his strength, but also the time when the Hagoromo Kitsune officially began to be 'created'. As a disciple whom Orochimaru regarded as a treasure, Uchiha Izumi did not spend much time on it. With her strength, she knew the existence of Yuyihu. From that moment on, she vaguely realized that this might be an opportunity for her.

Revenge is something that cannot be missed, so no amount of preparation is too much. After obtaining this experimental note about the Hagoromo Fox, Izumi Uchiha knew that he had indeed obtained the key.

As expected, the only issue that needs to be taken care of is only one.

"Aren't you going to invite others today? I thought it would be a bigger party."

Soon, after putting on an ordinary pink bathrobe, Uchiha Izumi appeared in front of Sasuke again, and shook his head slightly. Sasuke, who also put on home clothes, said lightly: "This is Naruto's way of thanking you for last time. I helped him have a dinner party at Tanshu Street for acting, but if it weren’t for Aunt Hagoromo, I’m afraid that guy would have just invited me to a noodle shop called Ichiraku Ramen.”

"Really? It seems that Aunt Hagoromo Fox is indeed Naruto's mother?"

Walking side by side with Sasuke on the street, Uchiha Izumi's tone also had an unpredictable meaning. It seemed like he was asking, but it also contained a bit of sarcasm and melancholy for no reason. This made Sasuke's brows slightly raised subconsciously. rise.

"It shouldn't be wrong. These are not worthy of doubt."

Sasuke didn't take Uchiha Izumi's words to heart too much. He just wanted to rush to Naruto's house as soon as possible so that the crane tail could see that he, Uchiha Sasuke, also had relatives.
