From undercover in Konoha, to I am the Hokage!

Chapter 167 Confession Bureau
Almost at the moment when he finished speaking, everyone present was stunned, and the three of them looked at him blankly.

There was a lot of noise in the commercial street outside. The hands busy in front of the pot didn't notice what was happening here and were still busy turning the noodles in the pot back and forth.

The distant voice seemed so clear at this moment.

But the next moment.

Tsunade and Yayoi almost simultaneously reached out their hands and covered Sawara Kiri's mouth, forcing him to hold back any words that were about to come.

"Shh!"

"Shut up first!"

This simultaneous reaction startled everyone around them, and Minato Namikaze only reacted at this moment, subconsciously widening his eyes.

Sawara Kiri almost couldn't catch his breath, and the words got stuck in his throat.

At the same time, Yayoi immediately widened her scarlet Sharingan, and her three magatama quickly rotated and scanned the passers-by around to see if anyone heard what they had just said, and finally fell on Tsunade, who posed the greatest threat among all the people present.

That ferocious look was as if he wanted to draw his sword and kill her on the spot, and then wander around the world with Sawara Kiri alone.

However, Tsunade did not have time to pay attention to the dangerous look coming from the side. While covering Sawara Kiri with one hand, the other hand was still tightly holding his sleeve, as if she was afraid that he would suddenly run away from her after saying this.

"You don't want to die!"

"What if someone hears us?"

The nervous and cautious rapid voice spoke as if he was Sawara Kiri's undercover accomplice, and his whole body seemed to be pressing down on him.

Hearing her words, Uchiha Yayoi's fierce gaze slightly eased, but still fell on her with some hesitation, and then swept to her, clinging to Sawara Kiri, and the Transformed Tuan, who looked very fierce just by looking at his face, whispered:
"Let go!"

Tsunade was startled when she heard that, and then she realized that her action didn't seem to be very elegant, but when she heard Sawara Kiri's words that sounded like a farewell, she slowly straightened up, with her hand still grabbing his clothes. Only the clothes in front of her and the haori that fell off suddenly were slightly loosened, revealing a large area of ​​snow in the shadow of summer.

Miss Yayoi's eyes became more and more ferocious.

However, at this time, Tsunade was completely unable to care about this little thing, and stared at Sahara Kiri with a pale face:
"What do you mean?"

The meaning of those words was very clear.

Are you going to run?

Sawara Kiri looked at her helplessly, then patted Yayoi's hands that were covering her face, signaling her to let go.

In fact, Uchiha Yayoi had some similar worries as Tsunade, but she would never go against Kiri's will. Seeing him like this, she withdrew her hand hesitantly, and just moved the chair that was originally some distance away towards him, with her shoulder almost touching his.

Coincidentally, the hand-made ramen noodles were already hot out of the oven, so I took the opportunity to bring both bowls of ramen to the table:

“Big bowl of seafood ramen and big bowl of char siu ramen!”

"Thank you, Handbeat-kun."

Sawara Kiri calmly picked up one of the bowls and placed it in front of herself and Yayoi, then took out two pairs of chopsticks from the chopstick bucket and handed them to Miss Yayoi.

However, since he had just said those words, no one present was in the mood to eat anymore and they all looked at him.

Seeing them like this, Sahara Kiri sighed softly, opened the disposable chopsticks in his hand, picked up some noodles in the bowl, and then continued:
"When I was five years old, I was sent to Konoha by Kirigakure from outside to carry out an assassination mission. The target was the former daimyo Fu Hosohara who had fled to Konoha with intelligence from the Land of Water. At first, I was treated as a disposable assassin. What are you looking at me for? Eat first."

Tsunade looked at his calm appearance and found that he did not seem to have any intention of leaving on the spot after being exposed - or, even if he had such an intention, no one in the ninja world could stop him now - after thinking this through, the panic that she could not even explain just now was immediately put down, but she did not continue to speak. She just took the freshly-baked tonkotsu ramen from the table and placed it in front of her, breaking the chopsticks but not speaking.

Sawara Kiri's eyes seemed to be filled with nostalgia. While sipping the ramen in his mouth, he recounted his past:

"Since I was three years old, I was chosen by the clan as a tool to start training because my father was seriously ill, I did not show any bloodline talent, and I had no background. The general content was no different from the roots in Konoha Village, but the progress of developing potential was faster. After a few years of training, I almost had the strength of a Genin."

"When I was carrying out that mission, the killing process was not that difficult, but after I had killed the person, I found that the secret agent who was supposed to meet me at the corresponding location was nowhere to be found. Only then did I realize that I had become a discarded pawn."

"Although I came from an ordinary background, I was lucky. When I killed someone, there happened to be a ninja from Iwagakure who was also on a mission. He caused quite a commotion and collapsed several small buildings."

"After I returned to the village, I found a suitable place and a corresponding alternative identity there - which is now the Sawara family."

Sawara Kiri's voice was not fast, and in order to avoid being seen and heard by his hands, the volume was not high either. However, as he spoke, there was a calmness in his demeanor, as if he did not care at all about the danger in his words and the hardships he had experienced.

The three people beside him all listened quietly, but their eyes looking at Sawara Kiri became more and more complicated.

The four people present were all capable jonin of their own and even had a seat at the Hokage election conference. Naturally, they knew what kind of elimination system was implemented within the Root.

Just by listening to Sawara Kiri's flat tone, Uchiha Yayoi beside him could feel the indifference and cruelty of killing and eliminating his companions since childhood. It seemed as if something was pulling at the depths of his heart, and his eyes unconsciously turned back to black, quietly falling on Sawara Kiri.

Even Tsunade calmed down unconsciously during his narration. After confirming that Sawara Kiri had no intention of leaving, she finally felt more confident and started listening to his past stories.

Namikaze Minato held the chopsticks in his hand and lowered his head slightly, as if he had an inexplicable sense of disillusionment with Sawara Kiri's original image, but it seemed that nothing had changed.

Sawara Kiri continued speaking quietly.

His story is actually not complicated. Apart from the rather thrilling process of integrating into Konoha at the age of five, he was actually no different from most of the children in Konoha at other times. He basically lived an ordinary life step by step.

The only thing worth emphasizing is how, after gradually gaining some strength, he designed to kill the two previous contacts of Karatachi Yagura.

"It was not until last year, when Goji Yagura appeared in front of me, that I suddenly realized that this peaceful life might not last any longer."

Sawara Kiri was sucking noodles in her mouth, with a hint of smile on her face as she said this.

Namikaze Minato seemed to remember something, frowned slightly and whispered: "Is it the time when the Iwagakure ninja attacked the Hokage Building?"

"Correct."

Sawara Kiri nodded.

Hearing this, Uchiha Yayoi seemed to remember something and turned to look in the direction of the fog: “So, until that day, you have been holding back your strength.”

Then, suddenly, a big one came to everyone.

"Cough cough."

Sawara Kiri suddenly coughed twice in embarrassment.

At that time, he didn't want to retain his strength at all. It was obvious that he had no strength at all. At most, he was equivalent to an ordinary jonin. It was not until the system arrived that he felt more confident.

However, he would take the system matters to his grave and would not talk to them about it.

In response, I naturally nodded:
"Yes, that's it."

After hearing this, Miss Yayoi finally understood. No wonder even she, a stalker hiding in the dark, couldn't find out why Wu Jun suddenly became stronger. It turned out that he, the undercover agent of Wuyin, had been wary of everyone around him from the beginning.

During that time, Tsunade was still on a mission to assassinate the Third Raikage in the Land of Lightning. She had no memory of this incident and was even more confused:

"After exposing your strength, why did you risk staying here?"

Sawara Kiri paused, and then spoke out the words he had prepared long ago, then turned to look in the direction of Yayoi:
"In fact, after I performed in front of the Third-generation Lord that day, I actually knew that kind of rhetoric would not be concealed for long. When the Third-generation Lord feels that his strength cannot suppress the threat of me, he will most likely get rid of me."

"But on the way back that night, Yayoi walked with me in the village for a long time."

Uchiha Yayoi was stunned when he heard this.

Of course she still remembered that day.

Because it was impossible for her to follow Wu openly under normal circumstances, she made an excuse after the war and followed him around the village in a big circle. It took a long time to get back to the Sawara residence, and before leaving, Yukie scolded her.

Sawara Kiri picked up the teacup and took a sip, saying calmly, "In fact, I knew from the beginning that people like me can no longer return to Kirigakure."

"Even if he could go back, the village would not trust a ninja who had been betrayed by the village many times, grew up in another village, and had countless suspicions on him."

"My parents died early, and in Kirigakure, I have nothing to rely on except my blood."

"But Konoha is different."

He turned his head and looked at Yayoi beside him, then looked at Tsunade and Minato, and smiled:

“There are a lot of people here who care about me.”

Uchiha Yayoi raised his head when he heard that. His eyes, which were always as dark as ink in the past, now seemed to be filled with a shimmering spring, all of which were concerned about him.

"Whether it's Yayoi who always takes pictures of me like a follower;"

Miss Yayoi's eyes, which were full of water a second ago, suddenly froze, and even the corners of her lips were stuck, as if someone had caught her.

"Minato still feels unwilling to accept defeat even after losing many times, and wants to compete with me;"

Namikaze Minato, who had just picked up a piece of noodles with chopsticks, suddenly froze in his tracks, as if some unforeseen secret had been discovered, and his neck twisted stiffly.

"Or maybe it's Tsunade-sama who is disrespectful to her elders and walks around the house every day without wearing any underwear but wrapped in a coat."

"Pong."

Tsunade's heart, which had just felt somewhat comforted, was about to explode. Her face, which had been pale before, suddenly turned red. She stared at him with wide eyes in shame and anger, and slammed the table with one hand, causing it to shake.

Can you say this outside?!
Sawara Kiri straightened the bowl of noodles, completely unmoved, with the same smile:

"I like them all."

"This is why I must protect this village no matter what."

"."

The small table immediately fell silent, leaving only the sound of Sawara Kiri slurping noodles.

Although Tsunade was still angry the last second, the look in her eyes when she looked at the young man in front of her couldn't help but become a little gentler.

In fact, she couldn't say for sure how she would react if the person who said these words to her was not Sawara Kiri.

But this is already the reality.

Now Sawara Kiri is not only her subordinate, but also the ceiling of the entire ninja world, the strongest representative, and a ninja who has brought victory to Konoha many times.

In fact, he had already demonstrated his position through his actions a long time ago.

Well, even if he was once an undercover agent of Kirigakure, so what?

At this moment, Tsunade couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

If Sawara Kiri had not been sent to Konoha, but had been enjoying good training and sufficient resources in Kirigakure, then what kind of desperate situation would Konoha Village be facing now?
I'm afraid that everything that Sand Village has experienced will appear exactly the same in Konoha?
Thinking of this, Tsunade felt really grateful to the top leaders of the Hidden Mist, and she couldn't even suppress a smile on her face.

However, the teacher's attitude must still be maintained.

Tsunade slowly restrained her expression, looked at Sahara Kiri beside her, and whispered: "Don't tell anyone about what we talked about today, either of you two!"

"After I discuss a countermeasure with Jiraiya, Orochimaru and the others, I will help you erase all the remaining traces."

"When that happens, you will be a native Konoha ninja, Sawara Kiri."

"understand?"

Hearing Tsunade's statement, Sahara Kiri turned to look at her, with a gentle smile on her face:

"it is good."

"."

Only after receiving his answer did Tsunade finally feel relieved. She opened the chopsticks in her hand and complained softly:
"What a troublesome guy."

"Yes Yes."

However, as they were talking, Uchiha Yayoi seemed to have suddenly recovered from the embarrassment, turned his head to look in Tsunade's direction, leaned close to Sawara Kiri and whispered:
"Is it true that Tsunade, that fat woman, doesn't wear small clothes at home?"

"Of course it is. It's huge."

"Xuehui told me several times but she didn't listen."

"Then you should stay at my house first, it's not safe."

Tsunade, who had just picked up the bowl of noodles, suddenly froze again. With red cheeks, she looked at Sahara Kiri angrily and stuffed a chopstick of barbecued pork into his mouth. She lowered her voice and said viciously:

"Even eating noodles can't stop your mouth!"

"Stinky brat!"

"woo woo woo woo."
