From undercover in Konoha, to I am the Hokage!

Chapter 171 Kill Her (5k)

The fact that Konoha annexed Loulan and began large-scale construction of some special buildings in the village was no secret in the entire ninja world.

However, after Sawara Kiri gradually gained control of Konoha and suppressed the major ninja clans, he did so many things and carried out so many reforms that most people did not regard this as a big problem at the beginning. At most, only villages like Iwagakure or Kumogakure, which still retained some strength, kept doing some small things under the table.

These things are unavoidable.

To this end, both Sawara Kiri and Orochimaru set up many checkpoints around the "Humanity Continuation Guarantee Agency" building, and even set up multiple barriers to prevent information leaks.

In fact, the effects of these measures are quite good.

Even though Ōnoki has made many inquiries and joined forces with Kumogakure and Sunagakure to invade, no information related to the 'Seed of the Sacred Tree' has been leaked so far.

Unfortunately, there are always some people in this world who cannot be reasoned with by common sense.

For example, Isshiki Ōtsutsuki personally nurtured the 'seed of the sacred tree' in the center of the dragon vein.

The reason why he didn't take action was simply because it was not yet the time for him to appear.

He had waited for a thousand years, so even if something like Sawara Kiri appeared now, it was nothing to worry about.

However, the impact of this information on Uchiha Guang was far greater than he had imagined.

"Whoosh-"

Outside the gate of Konoha Village, the faint sound of the wind was drowned out by the rustling sound of the woods.

The Konoha ninja on duty seemed to have sensed something strange and stuck his head in the direction of the sound in confusion, but only saw a sea of ​​shadows swallowed up in the night.

'Is there any wild animal passing by?'

He thought so in his mind.

"Nohara?"

As if noticing his little movement, the captain of the patrol team near the gate turned towards him and asked with a frown.

"No, nothing."

"Maybe I heard it wrong?"

After receiving the response from the familiar voice, the patrol captain felt relieved and continued patrolling on the city wall.

Since the village began to reform the assessment, not only has the original barrier outside the village been updated, but different assessment performance requirements have also been set for their teams. Although their wages have been slightly increased, the requirements for completing patrol missions have also been much higher, so that these guys who usually become lazy at night have to perk up a bit.

of course.

After their execution efficiency improved, Konoha's various long-standing problems such as public security and espionage were reduced a lot. This is also the foundation for Konoha's gradual prosperity in recent times.

"After we finish this patrol, we will change shifts. Everyone, please cheer up."

"If you are caught deserting by Orochimaru-sama's assessment team, don't blame me for not pleading for you!"

"Yes!"

All members of the patrol team responded, rubbed their cheeks, and continued their patrol work.

Wait until their figures gradually disappear into the darkness.

In the jungle, a slender figure popped out from behind a giant tree and looked at the backs of the patrol team members from afar.

"Are Konoha ninjas who are merely on guard duty at the outer perimeter capable of such qualities?"

'It seems that man is indeed much better than me in this respect.'

The fair skin on Uchiha Hikaru's cheeks seemed to reflect a little under the moonlight that fell after the dark clouds gradually dispersed, and he felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

Sawara Kiri's name has long been known throughout the ninja world.

Even though he lived in a remote corner, Uchiha Hikaru had heard of his name more than once or twice.

Only after she had taken charge of a village did she realize how difficult it was to make every ninja obey her orders wholeheartedly.

But, unfortunately
"The next patrol will be here soon. You only have twenty seconds."

"Next, follow the route I planned for you."

Jue's figure suddenly popped out from the trunk of the giant tree beside him without any warning, as if it could disappear into any material.

Uchiha Guang was not surprised by this.

"Ah."

After getting her response, Jue's figure instantly disappeared from the spot, and then sank into the deep of the soil like a diver.

In just a moment, the huge barrier that originally stood outside the entire Konoha city wall and covered the entire village like a skynet was pulled apart little by little, leaving a gap only big enough for one person to pass through.

Uchiha Hikaru seized the space when the next patrol team had not yet arrived, and his figure disappeared like a shadow, and he penetrated into Konoha without any warning.

After Uchiha Madara's teachings and the training in recent times, she has gradually been able to master the chakra that was taken away from other people.

After adapting to this, it was not only her eye power that improved greatly, but also her various physical and ninjutsu skills.

To Uchiha Hikaru, chakra is far more important than she initially imagined.

At the same time, it was precisely because she understood this that she threw away all her burdens and sneaked into Konoha alone.

From the time she received the information about the 'Seed of the Sacred Tree' from the so-called 'Kara Organization' to now, the entire process has only been ten days.

However, even Uchiha Hikaru himself couldn't tell whether he came here because he wanted to seize the source of chakra that he didn't know whether it really existed, or because he wanted to meet Sawara Kiri.

Fortunately, this chaotic thought did not disturb her rationality.

Her footsteps swiftly passed through the dark streets and eaves. Under Jue's guidance, she easily avoided the Anbu sentry posts scattered along the way.

"Wow—"

The figure stopped at the top of a ten-story restaurant.

Uchiha Hikaru looked forward.

The area beneath her feet was the 'Konoha New City' which had just been completed recently and was still expanding outwards. Tall buildings rose from the ground like mountain pillars, and lights that had been lit after people moved in could be seen in the scattered windows.

When I looked towards the old city, I saw that the streets were still brightly lit even in the middle of the night, spreading across the land of Konoha like a shining river. I could vaguely hear some noise coming from the streets.

The vendors shout, the gamblers chatter, the street performers, and the wine market clinks wine glasses.
Compared to Takigakushi Village which is completely hidden under waterfalls and caves, this place seems more like the human world where emotions and desires are intertwined.

Uchiha Hikaru stood on the edge of the rooftop, his loose black coat and slightly messy long hair fluttering in the wind, as if he was suddenly touched slightly.

The girl suddenly asked:

"Absolutely."

"grown ups."

Jue's figure emerged from the concrete floor of the rooftop.

Uchiha Hikaru looked at the streets in the distance and said, "If the world is at peace, will everything become like this?"

"That's natural, Master Guang."

Zetsu's face still had that stiff and annoying smile on it—at least Uchiha Hikaru hated that face—but his voice was very steady:

"As long as you can carry out Madara-sama's plan, everyone in this world can live the life they dream of."

Hearing this, Uchiha Guang snorted in dissatisfaction.

However, this guy is still useful and cannot be killed for the time being, so naturally I can only suppress this dissatisfaction.

Continuing to look further into the distance in the night, we saw a building area covering a very large area at the edge of the old city, blocked by many earthen walls.

Looking down from above, one can vaguely see a circular foundation surrounded by an earth wall in the center.

That's the place where the 'seed of the sacred tree' is hidden as the Kara Organization said, right?

Uchiha Guang thought to himself, and his pair of dark eyes turned scarlet inadvertently.

"lead the way."

"Follow your orders."

The next moment, the two figures suddenly disappeared.

If there is anyone in the entire Konoha Village who values ​​the "Human Rights Continuation Guarantee Agency" project the most, it must be Orochimaru.

Not only for the accumulation in the process of studying time and space escape techniques, but also for obtaining more unknown information from this building that can "penetrate the future" - in order to satisfy his curiosity, Orochimaru can be said to have spared no effort when doing things.

Recently, he even stayed in this unfinished construction site for his meals and lodging, guarding the "seed" that was sealed in the incubator and looked as inconspicuous as a stone.

However, today, when he was still flipping through the scrolls left by the Second Generation and studying the characteristics of space-time escape techniques, there were suddenly a few subtle noises coming from outside the door.

"Ok?"

Orochimaru, wearing a white coat, has far better hearing and sense of smell than ordinary people after undergoing self-transformation.

Almost at the moment the voice came, he put down the top-secret scroll in his hand and walked towards the direction where the voice came from.

Uchiha Guang’s speed is quite fast, and he is also stealthy enough.

However, no matter how hidden they were, they could not completely avoid the four teams of Anbu guarding this small barrier - among them, there were two Hyuga ninjas and one Aburame ninja in a luxurious configuration.

Almost the moment her figure approached within a hundred meters, her figure was exposed in the Byakugan's chakra vision.

"Enemy attack--!!" The Hyuga ninja, who had already opened his Byakugan the moment he noticed something unusual, suddenly shouted.

In an instant, the four teams of Konoha Anbu surrounding the construction site rushed out at the same time.

Different from the Third Hokage's model of selecting the 'Emperor's personal army', this method completely uses loyalty as the criterion, selecting people from the middle and lower levels to join the Anbu.

After the reform of the whole village, all the Anbu now have strict strength requirements, and after the opening of the first term of the Ninja Academy, they are all given targeted teaching and training by various elderly jonin. The worst has the strength of a special jonin, and at the same time they are also trained in coordination with the Anbu team.

At this moment, when many people rushed out simultaneously in the form of a team, even Uchiha Guang was a little surprised at their strength.

But it was just surprise.

"boom!"

The violent gust of wind blew in his face under the fists and feet. The Anbu ninja in the sky, who was obviously a physical technique type, was extremely fast. The whole person rushed towards Uchiha Hikaru like an ink line in mid-air.

At the same time, a Nara ninja behind him had completed the shadow binding seal.

However, facing the simultaneous attack of the two, Uchiha Hikaru simply glanced at them.

The next moment, the seemingly slender figure suddenly rushed out like a chariot.

"thump!"

The heavy elbow strike, with the help of extremely high inertia, burst out with a huge force like an explosion, breaking through the attack of the Anbu above his head in just a fraction of a second. The entire elbow seemed to sink into the opponent's chest, making a hollow sound like a balloon being punctured, causing the tall body to fly back at a faster speed than when it came.

Taking advantage of the force of the collision between the two sides, before the shadow on the ground beneath her feet could wrap around her body, Uchiha Hikari had already turned over, and her slender white legs were spinning in the air, like a spinning axe, and they slammed into the shoulder of the Nara ninja behind her, making a crisp "crack" sound of breaking the bone.

As soon as she landed on the ground, the scarlet eyes deep in her sockets were already spinning like a windmill, quickly scanning the surrounding Anbu ninjas. All movements seemed to be slowed down countless times in her eyes.

"Snapped--"

As soon as his feet touched the ground, his figure was reflected.

"Puff puff--"

A series of shurikens and kunai hit the spot where she had just landed, but she was still a step too slow.

"Stop her! Fire the flare!"

The ANBU Jonin who was the team leader had just shouted when the ghostly shadow had already pounced in front of him, its speed was so fast that it was terrifying.

However, with his observation skills, he still caught the key point.

Those scarlet eyes kept rotating.

"This is the Sharingan?!"

He just had time to realize this before his brain was suddenly occupied by the surging pupil power and he lost consciousness instantly.

At the same time, a subtle trace of horn windmill chakra was reflected on the neck.

"thump."

He fell to the ground without any resistance.

"Sharingan!"

"Get out of her sight!"

However, the Hyuga ninja who was still coordinating on the periphery shouted first.

The many Anbu members present were startled when they heard this, and looked at the slender figure in amazement.

Uchiha Hikaru didn't care about the small matter of her identity being exposed - or rather, she might be happier if she could put the blame on Uchiha - and rushed directly into the several-story building in front of her.

The numerous Anbu had no time to worry about these little things, as the figures that followed in were faster than the last.

Soon, a fierce sound of metal clashing could be heard between the buildings that had not yet been built.

Unfortunately, Uchiha Hikaru is no longer the same as before.

The increase in chakra brings about all-round improvement.

Relying only on a kunai, the girl rushed forward as if she was flying through an empty space, and with just her physical skills she dealt with the dozen or so Anbu ninjas who were considered to be the best in the entire ninja world and who were blocking her way.

However, just as she was about to rush down, Uchiha Hikaru's figure suddenly paused and he abruptly dodged to the side.

The next second, a group of snakes flew out like raindrops and passed by the direction where she had just stood.

There was a faint stench of poisonous gas in the air.

In the darkness, Orochimaru slowly stepped out and looked at the girl in front of him with an indifferent expression.

"An Uchiha child?"

"There shouldn't be anyone as talented as you among this generation of students."

"whispering sound."

Uchiha Guang had no interest in communicating with him at all. The guy in front of him was obviously not an easy person to deal with.

In that case
"Buzz!"

The three pitch-black magatama in the scarlet eyes suddenly turned into a wheel, transforming into a spinning pinwheel.

At the same time, the dark red bone structure, accompanied by a huge amount of chakra, continuously gushed out from the girl's body. The huge size even flattened and collapsed the surrounding unbuilt buildings.

The moment he saw these eyes, Orochimaru, who had looked confident of victory just now, suddenly lost his composure.

"This is, Susanoo?!"

Orochimaru said in surprise.

How could he forget this unique skill since the last battle with Uchiha Madara?

Almost at the moment he had time to make a sound.

Uchiha Hikaru had already ruthlessly controlled the huge bone Susanoo and smashed down an arm in the direction of Orochimaru.

Even though it was only the first stage of Susanoo, with the addition of a huge amount of chakra, it also burst out with extremely astonishing power.

Faced with this attack, even Orochimaru did not dare to take it head-on. The moment his arm swung down, his body suddenly turned into countless snakes and scattered in all directions.

Uchiha Hikaru had no intention of fighting with him at all.

She knew very well that if she delayed a little longer, with that guy's speed, he would definitely be there.

Now she is racing against time.

The giant Susanoo was kept open at all times regardless of consumption. Uchiha Hikaru was like a rampaging chariot, rushing forward regardless of anything and smashing everything that blocked its way.

Until finally, she saw the iron door.

The girl suddenly broke away from the range of Susanoo and stretched out her arm to touch the gate.

However, at this moment.

"Kagura, the God of Fire, Round Dance!"

The blazing flames suddenly penetrated a distance of dozens of meters like a stream of light, pierced through the ground above at lightning speed, and flew straight towards the distance between the girl and the iron gate.

The flames burst out in an instant, as if they were going to engulf the woman in front of him and the iron door together.

"boom--!"

The sound of the explosive air waves seemed to pierce through the eardrums, causing Uchiha Hikaru to take a few steps back.

Then, he had time to look at the figure in front of him.

"It's you?!" x2
The moment the two girls stopped, they spoke in unison.

However, the emotions revealed in their gazes seemed even more intense than the fire beneath their feet.

Uchiha Yasuo stared at the woman in front of him, and his mind almost subconsciously recalled the scene of their first meeting.

If it weren't for her, it would be unknown when the third magatama would appear.

Miss Yayoi thought silently in her heart, and her fingers holding the ninja sword tightened a few degrees inadvertently.

Uchiha Hikaru frowned.

If I remember correctly, this should be the woman who released her before and followed Wu?
Just thinking of this impression, Uchiha Guang couldn't help but narrow his eyes, with a faint sense of irritability that seemed to be expressed.

"Yayoi, do you know this woman?"

Orochimaru's figure was blended by countless snake flows, and he stood far behind with a frown on his face.

However, neither of the two Uchiha girls in front of him paid any attention to him.

As the three magatama and the horn windmill stared at each other, the fierce fighting spirit seemed to completely engulf this small underground space.

'Kill her.'

This thought came to their minds at the same time.

Immediately afterwards, from the depths of the dark space, an ear-piercing sound of metal clashing suddenly erupted.
