Avengers of the Whirlpool Family.

Chapter 238: Reunion and Spring Country
"Ryoma!"

The sound of a low shout falling.

"Whoosh!"

In the side position.

A tall figure flashed and appeared.

Kneeling on one knee in front of Danzo.

"You personally lead two teams to the Land of Spring, and take Shen and Hai with you. If you can persuade them, that would be the best. If that doesn't work, then it doesn't matter what method you use. I just want to see that Vulpix can be brought back successfully. Do you understand?"

Danzo looked at the man in front of him whom he trusted the most and who was also the most powerful jonin in the Root at present, and spoke in an extremely cold tone.

How strong are the tailed beasts.

Of course Danzo was still clear.

If there was still some misjudgment on the opponent's numbness before.

Now, Danzo would not make any low-level mistakes in judgment regarding this Six-Tails Jinchuriki who defected from the Hidden Mist Village.

With a jonin whose strength is almost at the top level of the jonin, plus two of the most elite Root teams, and special talents who are good at sealing techniques, Danzo believes that even if the Six-Tails is fully transformed into a tailed beast, it should be able to fight.

What's more, they can just sit back and wait and see, and not take any action in a hurry.

Danzo believed that his subordinate would understand what he meant.

"Yes, Lord Danzo, please rest assured!"

The man named Ryoma also responded in the calmest voice.

"Well, then I'll leave everything to you, Ryoma!"

Danzo also nodded in satisfaction.

Ever since Ryoma joined the Root, he has never let Danzo down in every mission he has carried out. This time, Danzo also believes that he will definitely bring him good news.

"Yes!"

Longma suddenly lowered his head and responded.

His figure flashed and he disappeared from the spot.

It was only a few minutes later.

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

In the eastern wilderness of the Ninja Village.

More than a dozen figures dressed in the standard black uniforms of the Anbu also rushed out from here and rushed southward.

These people had just left the Hidden Leaf Village not long ago.

At the Hokage Building.

Tsunade received the message.

"Sure enough, this old guy just can't help himself!"

Tsunade sat in her own Hokage seat, listening to the information sent by the garrison personnel, and a look of 'as expected' flashed in her beautiful eyes.

The current Konohagakure Village is completely different from before.

Tsunade is also a family member and knows her own business.

Even though she is the Hokage.

However, the people under him were indeed not aware of every order that was issued, but Mito Kado En, Utane Koharu, and Shimura Danzo would definitely be informed.

Each of them is an elder who has held power in the ninja village for decades.

Every corner and every department of the village bears their marks. Tsunade has no way of stopping this, unless she forcefully removes the three from their positions, imprisons them all, and then makes a major reshuffle of all departments of the Hidden Leaf Village. Otherwise, it will be impossible for Tsunade to fully control the power of the entire ninja village.

But if that happens.

The entire ninja village would inevitably fall into chaos, which was a situation that Tsunade absolutely did not want to see and could not accept.

She doesn't have the ability and prestige to suppress everything.

Even if we take a step back and say that if she can really make up her mind, Jiraiya, Shikaku, and other Tsunade's most staunch supporters may not necessarily support her.

She is not Sarutobi Hiruzen after all.

The Third Hokage was unwilling to do that.

Tsunade couldn't do it.

The stability of the ninja village is the key that matters most.

"Lady Tsunade, what should we do now? Should we send someone to intercept them directly?"

Jingyin, who was sitting on the side, also spoke with a worried look.

"No, there is no point in sending people to intercept. Putting aside other things, Danzo has definitely sent out the most elite people in the Root this time. Now the Root can't spare the necessary strength to intercept. Shizune, pass the message to Jiraiya and let Jiraiya make the judgment on the spot!"

Tsunade frowned and thought for a while, then finally shook her head slowly.

After all, this is not a problem for Menma and Sasuke. It is just the Six-Tails Jinchuriki, and although it will also involve the Hidden Mist Village, in Tsunade's view, this is not a particularly big problem, and there is no need to really confront Danzo.

And most importantly, Tsunade has already received feedback that Jiraiya has already headed south to the "Land of Spring". With such a close friend of hers around, Tsunade doesn't think that these people from the Root will cause any trouble.

"Yes, Tsunade-sama!"

Shizune also nodded as if she understood, and then strode away to convey Tsunade's order.

The forces from all sides gathered together. This was clearly a development that had exceeded most people's expectations.

Nothing could be predicted, including Menma.

On his way south, he completely avoided those main roads, and even though it would consume more chakra, Menma tried to travel during the day with a changed appearance as much as possible. After all, he still had to be prepared for possible unexpected situations.

Throughout the whole process, I also spread my perception.

Always monitor your surroundings.

Menma was not very worried about other people, but he had to be on high alert for those elusive White Zetsu. Now he would never allow these White Zetsu to detect his whereabouts at any time.

"The agreed location should be here, right?"

It took more than a day.

Menma also crossed almost half of the continent and came directly to a coastal area in the southernmost part of the Fire Country.

This is also the shortest route among the selected routes after avoiding the main road.

Looking around, there was not a single person in sight.

But Menma only needed to sense it slightly before he easily locked onto a shadowy location in the woods on the right side of the coast.

"Haha, Menma-kun is still so perceptive. He was able to find my location so quickly."

It was almost at the moment when Menma's gaze froze.

A familiar chuckle came from behind the woods.

next second.

The familiar slender figure of Yakushi Kabuto stepped out from inside.

"Don't forget my last name, Dousang. No one can escape my lock within my sensing range."

Menma looked at Kabuto Yakushi with an indifferent expression, and his words were obviously intentionally containing a hint of warning.

There was a hint of coldness that was clearly audible.

This made Pharmacist Dou's expression change slightly.

To be honest, his hiding just now was indeed intentional. Yakushi Kabuto wanted to see how high Menma's current strength had grown, and he could see it a little from his perception and reconnaissance.

It was not Orochimaru's instruction, but Kabuto Yakushi's arbitrary behavior.

However, he did not expect that Menma's perception was not only sharper than before, but he could also see through his intentions at a glance. This made Kabuto Yakushi's heart a little tense, but after only a second or two, Kabuto Yakushi immediately adjusted himself.

Still with that smile on his face, he said: "You are worthy of being Menma-kun!"

It was as if he hadn't heard the underlying meaning in Menma's words at all.

With the ability to easily switch masks and mentalities anytime and anywhere, he is worthy of being a top spies. No wonder Orochimaru values ​​Kabuto Yakushi so much, this guy is really outstanding.

Excellent espionage and counter-investigation capabilities, top-notch medical skills, and outstanding auxiliary experimental capabilities.

Any one of them alone would be an excellent ninja, let alone one that combines all three.

Menma also wants to obtain Kabuto Yakushi more and more.

Of course, this thought only lasted for a moment.

Menma is very self-aware. He will never be able to tame Kabuto Yakushi. Although this guy has a kind expression, he is very proud in his heart.

Such a person would never submit to others easily.

The reason why Orochimaru was able to do it was that he chose a suitable node. In fact, Kabuto Yakushi was not necessarily completely obedient to Orochimaru in the true sense.

At least compared to Kimimaro, Guren, and the Four Sound-Ninjas, they are definitely inferior.

Only Danzo Shimura had the opportunity to make this unique genius completely obey him, but unfortunately, Danzo chose the wrong method, and the death of Nono Yakushi made Kabuto Yakushi completely dead in his heart.

However, if Danzo didn't do that, he wouldn't be Danzo.

"Okay, let's stop talking nonsense. Can Yu Gao's location still be locked in the Spring Country?"

Menma waved his hand and changed the subject, getting straight to the point.

"It is like this at the moment, but the exact location cannot be determined yet."

Pharmacist Dou adjusted his glasses and replied softly.

"What about the Mist Ninja team? Did anyone die in the previous battle?"

Although there is a reference to the plot in the original book.

But Menma still needs to have as much first-hand information as possible.

"From the traces at the scene, only some people on the Mist Ninja side were injured, but no one was killed. This can also be seen from the subsequent pursuit. There is no deviation in the number of people, and there is no sign of reinforcements being sent from the Hidden Mist Village."

Yakushi Kabuto also knew very well what Menma meant by this question.

At the moment, he just smiled and answered.

"Hmph, then it seems to be just as expected. Traitor? It's not particularly thorough. Or maybe there is someone in this pursuit team who has a special relationship with this Yudaka-san."

Menma said with a snort.

"So, what is Menma-kun's plan?"

Yakushi Kabuto still spoke with a smiling face.

"Plan? You have to meet Yudaka-san first. Come on, Dou-san. The rest is up to you."

Menma raised his eyebrows and said to Kabuto Yakushi with a calm look.

"Please rest assured, Menma-kun, leave the rest to me!"

Pharmacist Kabuto also responded immediately.
