Konoha's Thief Hand

Chapter 557

Country of Fire, Daming Mansion.

After a ceremony attended by many nobles, only the daimyo and Sarutobi Hiruzen were left in the garden of the Daming Mansion to enjoy flowers and tea.

“Tsunade? Well, if it were her, becoming a Hokage would be well deserved.” The daimyo shook his fan lightly, and squinted at the most striking flower in the garden that bloomed like a pom-pom, and said casually. : “Unconsciously, the younger generations are already able to carry the heavy burdens, and we are really old.”

“Master daimyo said and laughed, you are very well maintained, unlike me, you have wrinkles all over your face.” Sarutobi Hiruzen held the teacup, felt the warmth in his palms, pondering the deep meaning of daimyo’s words in his mind. Complimented calmly on the surface.

“Ahahaha, let’s not talk about these troublesome things, let’s enjoy the tea.” The daimyo picked up the tea cup and said to Sarutobi Hiruzen kindly: “This is the finest tea from the rock wall of the country of soil, don’t It’s a waste.”

“Yes, Lord Daimyo.” Sarutobi Hiruzen’s eyes flickered, and he slightly raised his teacup.

Outside the garden, twelve guards with fire emblems on their waists waited forbearance. One of the youths with a sullen expression saw the silent youth, thought for a moment, and walked to his side.

“Asuma, is that your father in there?” Sarutobi Asuma said, the young man raised his chin and was extremely silent at this moment.

“Hema!” Before Sarutobi Asuma responded, a bald-faced youth stood in front of him. “You know that Asuma’s relationship with his father is not harmonious. What do you mean by mentioning these now?”

“Hehe, I just heard that in order to be able to regain the authority of Konoha Village, the fourth Hokage fought alone, and eventually lost his life. Even this is not over yet, even the identity of the fourth Hokage’s son was concealed by him. , If someone divulged the matter…” Hema sneered with his arms.

“Enough! Hema, you are too much!” Dilu quickly interrupted the young man, and then looked back at the silent Sarutobi Asuma, only to see that the latter had left with his head bowed and left alone.

“Hema, everyone is a guardian of Shinobu, why do you always target Asuma?” Pekan, who has the title of “Lightning Style Four”, frowned and looked at Hema Shen Sheng.

“Do you agree with the ridiculous statement of Asuma’s two pieces of jade?” Hema looked at Pekan with a sneer, and then glanced at the others. Everyone looked different and obviously held different views on this. This is exactly what he wants.

Outside the daimyo palace, Kakashi and the other five Anbu ninjas finally arrived. After submitting the identification documents, they were quickly summoned into the palace and led by the servants to the outside of the garden.

“Who are they?” He Ma saw the incoming person and had already identified each other’s identity, but he had other ideas, so he deliberately blocked the way, and said awe-inspiringly: “The guardian of the Twelve Ninja Shinai is the one who defends the great name. Don’t let go of any details that might threaten the life of Da Ming!”

This was spoken to Kakashi and others, and it was also spoken to the other guardian Shinobi, while Kuma took the opportunity to observe the expressions of other people and remembered it to himself.

“Sama Guardian Ninja, these ninjas from Konoha Village came to protect Lord Third Hokage from returning to Konoha Village.” The servant quickly explained.

“Hokage’s guard?” Hema raised his eyebrows. “It turns out to be Anbu in Konoha Village. Even if it is, you can just wait here. I’ll go in and report to the lord.”

Hearing that Kazuma used such a casual tone to expose the’Anbu’ who was acting secretly, Anbu ninjas including Kakashi frowned, but after all, this is the daimyo palace. They can only suppress their anger and ignore each other. .

After a while, Sarutobi Hiruzen walked out of the garden, and after saying goodbye to the daimyo, he swept his eyes to guard the Ninja Twelve Shi, but was disappointed to find that the figure he wanted to see was not in the sequence.

He sighed slightly, and when he raised his foot to walk towards Kakashi and other Anbu ninjas, he suddenly caught a pair of eyes that implied hostility.

The moment his eyes met each other, Hema’s pupils shrank suddenly, and then he hurriedly lowered his head.

Although he has unspeakable ambitions, when he really faced the leaders of the five major villages who had the title of “Shadow”, his heartbeat suddenly increased.

“Master Hokage.” An Anbu ninja stepped forward and whispered.

“Well, let’s go.” Sarutobi Hiruzen squinted his eyes and remembered the appearance of the guardian Shinobu in his heart, and immediately waved his hand at the Anbu guards before stepping out.

Looking at the small back figure who was going away under the protection of Anbu ninja, the blue veins on the forehead of the horse and his face were flushed, and he was very angry at the panic he had just now.

He couldn’t help clenching his fists, his teeth clenched, and he breathed out after a long time, but the thoughts in his heart were invisibly deeper several times.

Leaving the city, the Anbu ninja enters a guard state. Two Anbu ninjas in front of and behind Sarutobi Hiruzen guard at any time, and the other three concealed in the dark to protect, detect and explore the way.

“Unexpectedly, Lord Danzo sent the elite of the roots to disguise as a passing ninja on the way to implement the interception plan.” At this point, Kakashi paused slightly, drew Sarutobi Hiruzen’s inquiry. Looking at it, Kakashi considered it and said, “One of them is a special ninja who has performed the Wood Style Technique for the First Generation.”

“Wood Style Technique?” Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his eyebrows, lost in thought.

Wood Style is as famous as Sharingan and can control the power of the tail beast. As a village with the only Wood Style Technique, Konoha Village has certainly done special research, and Orochimaru is one of them.

At this moment, I suddenly heard that a ninja using Wood Style Technique appeared. Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately thought of his disciple, especially some clues revealed in the recent investigation results.

“Don’t say anything about this. When I return to the village, I will send someone to investigate.” Sarutobi Hiruzen told Kakashi.

“Yes, Master Hokage.” Kakashi nodded.

“Yeah.” Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at the sides of the road, then whispered to Kakashi, “Be prepared for the battle, Kakashi.”

“Fighting?” Kakashi was stunned when he heard the words, and quickly thought about it for a moment. Sharingan Nakasan Goyu under the mask spun and swept around, waiting for him.

At the same time, far away in Konoha Village, Nara Lujiu came to Tsunade’s house.

“Have you called together, Luku?” Tsunade looked at Nara Luku and confirmed.

“Although this is not a simple matter, it has been completed.” Nara Lu nodded for a long time, and added: “I didn’t alarm the attention of that person and the two consultants.”
