From undercover in Konoha, to I am the Hokage!

Chapter 74: White Secret Technique: The Ten Nearmatsu

When the information about Sawara Kiri was first sent to the front command post, it had not attracted anyone's attention.

Considering his bright future, after returning the information to the headquarters, Nara Shikama simply reprimanded the Sawara team as usual, asked them to carry out the mission as usual, and then forgot about it.

It was not until one day later that Orochimaru suddenly turned out the information from the front line when he saw another piece of intelligence.

"It is estimated that between five and eight days ago, a total of twenty-three people from the Southwest Border Patrol Squadron were missing."

"Failure to find the body?"

Orochimaru slapped the information on the table, turned to look at the assistant beside him, and showed a rare stern expression:

"Why did this information arrive only now?"

“Who runs the Southwest Border Intelligence Unit?”

The assistant was stunned for a moment, and even his voice tightened a bit, but he still answered immediately: "Master Orochimaru, due to the serious infiltration phenomenon in various parts of the battlefield, several intelligence reports, including this one, were missed due to communication interference."

"The Southwest Border Intelligence Department did not receive a corresponding reply, so it sent a supplementary letter today."

In the assistant's opinion, it is normal for one or two squadrons or even a large group of dozens of people to disappear silently on the battlefield during war.

But why is Lord Orochimaru, who usually never frowns even when seeing reports of numerous casualties in battle, so angry today?

"."

Hearing this, Orochimaru clenched his hands on the table into fists, revealing a rare bit of intense emotion.

However, after understanding the whole story, he no longer blamed his subordinates.

Orochimaru took a deep breath, calmed himself down, thought for a moment, and immediately instructed his assistant:

"Notify Nara Shikama immediately and ask him to launch a large-scale search on the southwest front!"

"All intelligence departments will immediately launch a full-scale search for enemy information within their respective territories. The three reconnaissance reserve teams of Hyuga, Aburame, and Inuzuka will be dispatched to use Kikyo Castle as their base."

After issuing a series of orders, Orochimaru sat at his desk, looking at the information sent back yesterday with a gloomy expression.

"Sahara Mist"

"He really saved my life."

Since this Sand Village team was only discovered by a reconnaissance squadron during the entire operation, it means that this Sand Village team that penetrated deep into the territory of the Land of Fire should not exceed 300 people. Although the number of people is very small, they have penetrated into this location.

"The Tailed Beast? Or is it the Third Kazekage himself?"

"Or maybe, just show up together?"

As a Kage-level warrior, Orochimaru was well aware of the destructive power of the Third Hokage, who had mastered the art of magnetic escape and was known as the 'Strongest Wind Kage', against a group of people.

If the tailed beast appeared in Kikyo Castle, all his plans to turn defeat into victory would be in vain.
The expression on Orochimaru's face became increasingly tense. He couldn't accept that he had made such a serious mistake in his plan.

"We must find out their location immediately!"

"He was clearly saying something like 'How dare you retreat without orders?'"

"Now you're eagerly pulling the fog out again!"

"That old guy."

Miss Yayoi muttered indignantly, gritting her teeth, looking petty and resentful.

In fact, it was all because of what Nara Shikama said to Sawara Kiri that day.

Only when it comes to matters related to fog, Miss Yayoi, who is usually calm, rational, almost keeping people at a distance and not very talkative, appears to be unusually vengeful.

Now, it is not only Sawara Kiri who knows this.

Even the team members Minato Namikaze and Nono Yakushi discovered it. Faced with this situation, they all kept silent and looked at Sawara Kiri with urging eyes.

"Okay, Yayoi."

Under their gazes, Sahara Kiri had no choice but to move closer and whispered to comfort them: "After all, this is a war time, and Lord Shikama is also trying to maintain military discipline."

After just one sentence, Miss Yayoi said no more.

"Humph."

Sawara Kiri secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

However, when he turned his head, he caught a glimpse of Minato giving him a teasing smile. Even the little guy Nono was trying hard to keep a poker face and not show too much expression as possible.

These two guys.
Do you know how hard I have worked to protect this world?

If she is not careful, Miss Yayoi, who is overwhelmed by the power of the yandere, will punch the Rinnegan and kick Kaguya Otsutsuki!

Unfortunately, he is the only one who knows about this.

As if noticing his resentful look, Minato pursed his lips slightly to make the expression on his face less obvious, and then he spoke:

"Come to think of it, it's been almost two days since we found the patrol team's missing location, right?"

"Do you want to apply for another reconnaissance team?"

"After staying here for so long, the front line..."

Minato was ostensibly helping Kiri out, but in reality, he was also expressing his own concerns.

When they were on the front line, they were under so much pressure. What would it be like if they were in a different team? "Indeed."

Sawara Kiri also had this plan.

In fact, he still has the psychological inertia brought over from his previous life.

In the original work, the Second Ninja World War ended with Konoha's complete victory. If this is the case, it means that it is unlikely that monsters with strength exceeding the level of the tailed beasts will appear now.

In that case, what is he worried about?
According to Sawara Kiri, wandering around here now would most likely increase casualties on the front line.

However, just as he was thinking this, his hand suddenly covered his right ear.

Suddenly, a series of vague sounds rang in my brain.

Sawara Kiri's steps completely stopped, his expression solemn, and he took the initiative to refine the chakra in his body on a larger scale.

After the target of the voice transmission became more obvious, the clarity of the sound in the brain was significantly improved, but it was a little intermittent.

"South of Sasawara-sama, south of Mount Shitake"

"Hold on."

He simply replied and immediately opened his "Six Eyes".

This should be the voice of the Yamanaka Xiongma. The direction their team is heading is.
Seeing his expression, several team members around him immediately shut up and looked at him quietly.

In an instant, the space within tens of kilometers was quickly surpassed by his vision. After compressing the 360-degree brain processing range into a small area, the range that his eyes could reach immediately reached a very terrifying distance.

Until the end, the picture was locked on the face of an old man with white hair and beard.

In front of him and several puppets, there were several corpses of Konoha ninjas lying down.

As if they had telepathic connection, the old man suddenly raised his head and met his gaze that transcended space.

He grinned a ferocious smile.

Sawara Kiri's expression became more serious.

The only thing to be thankful for was that before setting off, Minato gave each team a kunai.

"Minato! Position, Yamanaka Yuuma."

"About three meters after the mark."

Sawara Kiri immediately gave the order, drew his ninja sword, and prepared for battle.

Although Minato at this time had not yet reached the level of Flying Thunder God as in his previous life, he was almost able to lead people to teleport.

After hearing Wu's order, he formed seals with his hands without any hesitation.

"Hold my back."

The three of them immediately stretched out their hands.

Almost in an instant, after the space was distorted, their figures suddenly appeared in front of the old man.

The moment his figure suddenly appeared, Sawara Kiri took a sudden step forward.

He drew fire from the ninja sword in his hand and swung it forward.

Blazing like a meteor.

"boom!!!"

The exploding fireworks spread out at lightning speed to a range of dozens of meters ahead, directly engulfing the old man with white hair and beard, making a deafening explosion.

However, to his surprise, the body suddenly spun and broke through the flames, carrying the puppets up into the air, and hooked on the lush tall ancient trees, floating like dolls.

“Haha ...!”

Bursts of shrill, hoarse laughter rang in my ears.

"How terrible, how terrible!"

"Today, we can actually see Tobirama's space ninjutsu again?"

The old man, with a slightly hunched figure, walked slowly out from behind another big tree.

"You really have a bad temper, little brat."

"However, if you are only at this level, you will never be able to touch me!"

Several puppets also stopped in mid-air at the same time.

The puppet heads all turned towards the group.

"Let you see it."

"I used the puppetry skills I created in this life."

Monzaemon stood there, with an excited smile on his wrinkled face:
"White Secret Technique: Chikamatsu Ten People!"
