Chapter 257: The Pharmacist and Taodi will not be cut again
Xianglin's words naturally fell on Dazna's ears, which made Dazna look a little panicked.
But before he could say anything, Zuosuke and Naruto had already moved.
The two mist ninjas who originally didn't take Naruto and the others seriously at all, were already in a bad situation after a series of sneak attacks.
But now facing another attack from Zuosuke and Naruto, they had no ability to resist at all.
In fact, they really didn't understand at all why these two genin were so terrifying and what was going on?
It didn't take long at all, and the two fog ninjas were dragged over like dead dogs by Zuosuke and Naruto.
"You are really outstanding as always. Really, according to your abilities, you can already become a chuunin."
Kakashi complained as he walked out of the bushes on the side, and Dazuna felt as if he had seen a ghost when he saw this scene.
He clearly saw Kakashi being dismembered by the two guys, but when he looked at the body again, he was shocked to find that there were only some pieces of wood left on the ground.
As an ordinary person, he really doesn't understand the power of ninjas.
Apart from knowing that each of these guys were too strong to be human, he knew nothing else.
In fact, almost all ordinary people in the ninja world are similar to him, and they really don't know enough about the power of ninjas.
But they know that ninjas are the most powerful beings in the world. The power of these guys can destroy the world and do everything you can't imagine.
And now Dazna is also very worried, because he knows one thing, a bad thing may happen.
That means his situation may be exposed, especially since these four Konoha ninjas have already arrived.
"You...you have discovered us a long time ago?"
The Mist Ninja caught by Zuosuke had some difficulty in speaking, and blood was bleeding from the corners of his mouth as he spoke.
"Since you discovered us a long time ago, why didn't you catch us from the beginning and did you have to wait until we took action?"
"Does this question still need to be asked?"
Zuosuke said calmly, he looked at this guy like he was a fool.
"Because I want to be sure of one thing, and that is whether you are here for our Konoha ninjas or for others.
But now I have got the answer, which means that you are actually useless."
"Get rid of them, they have no value anymore."
Kakashi nodded calmly and then directly issued the order.
After hearing these words, Zuosuke's eyes suddenly turned cold. Before anyone could react, the kunai flashed across, blood spattered, and the two ninjas lowered their heads at the same time, losing their life.
Not only did he kill the mist ninja in his hands, but he also helped Naruto deal with the enemy.
Naruto seemed a little tangled, but it was just tangled, and he didn't have much emotional reaction.
He simply doesn't like killing people, but that doesn't mean he can't do it. He has experienced wars and experienced so many missions.
Naruto has transformed a long time ago. Even if he feels a little uncomfortable inside, it doesn't mean that he can't do it. It doesn't mean that he can't accept it all.
What's more, he also knew that it was best to deal with these fog ninjas. The people of Kirigakure Village were famous for their persistence. Before death, they would bite their targets like mad dogs.
Killing is the best solution, and Kakuzu also told them that only dead enemies will not pose any threat, and they can better perform their tasks.
After waiting for the two Kirigakure ninjas to be dealt with, Xiang Rin looked at Dazuna with a cold light in his eyes.
"Mr. Dazna, can you explain to us what happened before us? I think you should know the ins and outs of the matter."
Kaoru's words made Sasuke and Naruto look over, and Kakashi, who knew everything, also looked at Tatsuna.
The somewhat cold gazes of the four Konoha ninjas made Dazuna swallow, and then subconsciously took a step back.
The momentum of the ninjas was far beyond what an ordinary person could face. Zuosuke and the other three were unbearable for him, let alone an elite jounin like Kakashi who had participated in the Ninja World War.
"You... listen to my explanation!" Dazna waved his hands quickly, looking panicked.
"We are listening, otherwise you would have no chance to speak now. I hope you can come up with a reasonable explanation."
Zuosuke looked at Tazuna indifferently, this kid was very cold, and Naruto and Xianglin also looked at him indifferently.
Under such circumstances, Dazna quickly told the whole story.
"That's what happened, because I didn't have enough money to hire high-level ninjas, so I had to make this decision.
Please forgive me, I am also doing it for the entire country of waves!"
Dazna knelt on the ground and apologized very sincerely. The situation he told was basically true, of course he would add some exaggerations.
His purpose of doing this is actually very clear, that is, he hopes to persuade this team to perform the mission together. After all, he has seen the capabilities of this team.
Therefore, he convinced these people no matter what, and he felt that although these three little guys were strong, they were still young.
Human beings are born with a feeling of sympathy for the weak and have natural sympathy for those who are oppressed.
Coupled with the fact that he described himself as extremely bleak in his speech just now, I think I should have a good chance.
However, what he often didn't expect was that Zuosuke glanced at Naruto and Xianglin, and after some eye contact, he directly raised his head and said to Kakashi.
"Kakashi-sensei, pack up, let's get ready to go back to the village."
"What?"
Tatsuna looked at Zuosuke with disbelief. He really didn't expect that this kid could be so cold-blooded.
"Yes, let's go, Kakashi-sensei."
Xianglin also glanced at Dazuna with disgust at this moment, and then she continued.
"This guy deliberately concealed the information about this mission. Fortunately, we received this mission. If it had been someone else, it would have been troublesome.
Moreover, this guy has not provided any information yet, although our ability should be no problem in taking on this mission.
But this mission has reached B level no matter how you look at it, and the money received by the village is not enough to support this kind of mission.
So, let's go back. Anyway, according to the rules of Konoha Village, even though he is suspected of cheating, the original mission reward will not be refunded.
Just let him leave Konoha and find another village to lie to."
"And this guy has already had this kind of thing happen. He still wants us to continue the mission without even telling us who we will meet. I'm really doubtful..."
Zuosuke followed up Xianglin's words and continued to speak.
"Does he want us to simply die there, so that it can attract the attention of the village, and then he can investigate and avenge us.
In this way, even if we come to settle the score with them afterwards, it will just be this guy who has to pay the price, and our death will be in vain.
Moreover, the village will also lose a lot of things because of his concealment, so we giving up the mission directly is a punishment for this guy, and also to avoid causing greater losses to the village."
Sasuke and Kaoru exchanged words with each other, while Naruto kept nodding aside, which immediately confused Tatsuna.
Even Kakashi had some cold sweat on his forehead. He realized that his disciples were truly qualified ninjas.
Of course, Naruto actually still wanted to carry out this mission because he really felt pity for Tatsuna.
But sorry for you, wouldn't it be better if you explained the situation clearly and made a promise to settle the matter afterwards?
What is the use of lies to deceive and pity to arouse their sympathy?
Naruto is still very kind at heart, but he has experienced so much and naturally knows that his kindness needs to be controlled.
Random outbursts of kindness may very well kill one of your own people.
Dazuna was really panicked this time. He stood up quickly and said in a panic, being blacklisted by Konoha is definitely not a good thing!
"Please wait, please... please help me this time. As for the reward, as long as we can build the bridge well, we as a whole in the Country of Waves will definitely raise enough money."
"Then wait until you collect enough money before you come to Konoha to do the mission. We don't have the habit of doing things first and then collecting money."
Zuosuke interrupted him directly, which seemed a little unkind. In fact, Zuosuke hated this guy very much.
"You have to understand one thing. We are ninjas, not a charity organization, and the rules set by the village have their own reasons.
If we help you this time, will different people go to Konoha for the same reason next time?
That would cause chaos in our Konoha mission system, and even because they deliberately concealed it, it would most likely lead to the death of the ninjas we sent.
Maybe that's what you think, you want to make things better so that Konoha can help you more.
In fact, you should be happy that we have no intention of punishing you."
Sasuke's words immediately blocked all of Dazuna's thoughts, and at the same time caused more and more cold sweat on Kakashi's forehead.
This was not the ending he had imagined. He originally just wanted to let these three little guys know that people's hearts are sinister.
As for whether the mission should be carried out or not, anyway, their purpose this time is not for money, but for the Kingdom of Waves.
Now that these three little guys have done this, it is obvious that the entire mission will be ruined, which is not what he wants.
After thinking for a moment, Kakashi suddenly whispered to the three little guys.
"You three, come here, I have something to tell you."
"Um?"
Zuosuke and Naruto couldn't help but become a little curious when they saw Kakashi like this, but the three of them still nodded honestly.
They left Dazna on the spot and then walked not far away, but their actions made Dazna extremely nervous.
Because he really didn't know if these three people would just turn around and leave, but he also knew very well that he couldn't do anything now.
After all, he was the one who committed the foul first. These Konoha ninjas were very polite by not attacking him. Now he could only wait silently for the outcome of the discussion between these Konoha ninjas.
"Although I want to say that the way you three handled it was right. After all, not killing such an unscrupulous guy is considered to be forgiving, but..."
Kakashi said helplessly, and his words immediately made the three little guys feel a little baffled.
As we all know, if there is a but in a sentence, then what comes before the but is nonsense, but what comes after is the key point.
"But, do you think I don't know the nature of this mission? Do you think there is a problem with Hokage-sama not knowing the nature of this mission?"
"Then why does Kakashi-sensei still accept this mission?"
Naruto asked with a puzzled look on his face. He didn't understand the twists and turns here, but after all, Zuosuke and Xianglin had accepted Uchiha's reformed education.
After hearing Kakashi's words, the two of them immediately began to think seriously. They believed that Kakashi definitely had a purpose in doing this.
After some thinking, they suddenly realized something, and Xianglin began to ask quickly.
"Kakashi-sensei, you mean, the Country of Waves?"
"Now I know why Ha Yuan thinks so highly of you."
Kakashi sighed, then nodded seriously and said.
"That's right, it's the country of waves.
Maybe you may not know Konoha's policies, but you should also know about the Country of Yu and the Country of Grass.
These two places did not originally belong to the Fire Country, but due to the war between us and Iwagakure Village, they eventually became our territory.
Under our control and governance, this place has become completely peaceful now, and I think everyone can feel it.
Such peace is hard-won, but we have summed up our experience and methods. We believe that through our governance, we can bring peace to more places!
The Country of Waves is considered a terra incognita, the daimyo there have long since left, and there is no ninja village there, so I think this place is an excellent target for us to choose.
We didn't take action before because we didn't have the chance or reason, but now..."
Kakashi stopped here when he said it. He felt that these little guys should understand after he said so much.
Even if you can't understand everything, you can at least understand part of it, right?
Facts have proved that they did understand, especially the two boys Zuosuke and Xianglin who completely understood why Kakashi looked so mysterious.
It turns out that the village has set its sights on the Country of Waves, and their mission is to find a reason to enter the Country of Waves, and to deal with the problems in the Country of Waves, so as to facilitate target control!
Even though Naruto's reaction was a little slow, he woke up at this moment.
"Oh, I understand, we are here to save the country of waves, right?"
"You can understand it this way, so although this employer is very bad, we still have to carry out the task. After all, he gave us a reason to act."
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go!"
...
In Konoha Village, Habara slowly woke up from his 'meditation' state.
He didn't look tired at all after sitting cross-legged for twenty-four hours. Instead, his expression was full of excitement at this time.
Success, he really succeeded this time!
After working hard for so many years, he finally got a good result!
But soon, Hahara took a deep breath and calmed down. Success was success, but he knew that this was just the beginning.
Because his success was only to successfully connect these chakras together and form a fusion focus.
Completing these things has already consumed twenty-four hours of his meditation time. One can imagine how long the subsequent step-by-step integration will take.
But even if he only completed this, for Hahara, he had completely opened a door, a real door leading to the strongest path!
The power of Blood Succession Snare has been placed in front of him. What he has to do now is to continue to move forward steadily and completely integrate these powers.
Only by accomplishing all this can he be considered a real success, but the subsequent work is actually very simple and can only be regarded as a job that requires careful attention and consumes time.
The real difficulty lies in opening this door, because it is a stone door with almost no opening device!
Feeling the constant surge of power in his body, feeling the chakra that has been slightly fused with each other, constantly exuding a terrifying aura.
Hahara nodded with satisfaction, this may be his biggest gain this year!
"But I still need to take my time. No matter how happy I am, I have to hold back. After all, I'm just starting out."
Hahara stood up slowly, then walked to the window and opened the curtains. In an instant, the silver moonlight fell on his window sill.
He couldn't help but smile when he looked at everything in front of him. The moon never seemed to be a good symbol in Naruto's world.
Whether it was the silver moon reflected behind Uchiha Itachi when he massacred the entire clan, or the infinite Tsukuyomi used by Uchiha Madara.
Or the Sage of Six Paths sealing Kaguya Otsutsuki actually relies on this moon.
But Hahara liked the moon very much and the feeling of being illuminated by the moonlight, which made him feel very peaceful and comfortable.
He raised his head and looked at the moon. After a long time, he shook his head and opened the window directly, and then his whole person disappeared in a flash.
The next second, his figure appeared on a telephone pole. His eyes instantly turned scarlet and he looked into the distance. The silver moon behind him was particularly eye-catching.
Even at this moment, this silver moon seems to be stained with blood, and it looks so permeable.
His eyes kept scanning around, and soon he locked on a place, and the next moment his figure disappeared without a trace again.
.....
Kabuto returned to his home a little tired. He was now doing some repetitive tasks every day.
After all, in the eyes of others, he is a Konoha genin with little future, even though this genin seems so gentle and friendly to others.
And today he also received a notification from a 'friend'. This 'friend' told him that Konoha was going to hold the Chuunin Exam again, and also asked him to participate.
"Kabuto, although you have participated so many times, and every time you have been forced to withdraw due to some unlucky things.
But I think you should continue to work hard, after all, the current treatment of chuunin is really not comparable to before.
As long as you become a chuunin, many things will be much easier in the future, and the benefits you can get are also very good, even if they only last for a year!"
Kabuto certainly knew how terrible Konoha's welfare was now. Although he himself didn't really care about such welfare, he finally agreed.
It's okay for him not to care, but as a Konoha ninja, he has to not care. After all, there is no one in Konoha who is unwilling to let himself be promoted.
Sometimes, you really can't act too strange, especially since Kabuto has a special identity.
"Um?"
But Kabuto, who had just arrived home, suddenly changed his face slightly, and he noticed some strange aura.
"Peng!"
But before he could do anything, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his stomach, which made him fly backwards.
He hit the wall hard, causing a stream of smoke and dust to fall continuously.
However, all this is not over yet. Although he is a little confused, he is a powerful ninja after all.
But just as he was about to fight back, a kunai stabbed directly into his arm, followed by a second and a third.
This kunai flies extremely fast and attacks with extremely precise locations, but it's not impossible to dodge these attacks even if you really try your best.
However, what made him despair was that the moment he set out, he saw a pair of scarlet eyes!
Puff, puff, puff...
The kunai stabbed his hands and feet accurately, and red blood quickly overflowed. At this moment, a voice sounded that Kabuto was unwilling to face.
"Kabuto Yakushi, you were once a child in an orphanage, but because Yakushi Nonou was attracted by Danzo, you joined the Roots in order to help your dean."
This voice combined with this information made Kabuto's body tremble involuntarily, and a faint figure slowly walked out and walked in front of him.
He didn't dare to raise his head to look at this person, nor did he dare to pull out the kunai on his body, because he knew who this person was. This person was Uchiha Hahara!
"You entered Sunagakure and Iwagakure to lurk one after another, and he also secretly changed his position to become Scorpion's secret line in Sunagakure, but it was never activated.
You always hope that what you do can help the pharmacist Nonou, and hope that Danzo can let the director of the orphanage go.
But the fact is that Danzo made you and Yakushi Nonou fight each other, and you ended up killing your dean, and you collapsed, and in the end you turned to Orochimaru in order to find out who you really were."
Habara directly told all the information about Yakushi Kabuto in a simple but clear way.
After saying these things, Hahara squatted down slightly and stared at the guy in front of him who didn't dare to look at him at all, with a smile on his lips.
"I dug out the root with my own hands. Do you think I don't have any information about you? Do you think I don't know the relationship between you and Orochimaru?
Actually, I didn't want to find you at first, but because of some small things, it's difficult for everyone to make a decision, but I think some things must be prepared for a rainy day.
I need you to contact Orochimaru, I need you to tell him something, can you do it?"
...
As the morning sun shone on the land, the five Kakashi set out. Because the bridge to the Land of Waves had not yet been repaired, they had to take a boat if they wanted to enter.
The five people found a small boat, and the boatman took advantage of the thick fog to go to the country of waves. In island countries like this, thick fog is not uncommon.
Especially not far from the Land of Waves, there is a great country ninja village that takes Mist as its name.
"It's finally here. I'm exhausted."
Kakashi stepped into the land of Wave Country and slowly exhaled. Although the journey was quite easy, Kakashi felt tired.
These three problem children made him feel like he was not a teacher at all, because he had nothing to teach them.
They understand many things at once, so what else do you need to say to them?
Although he was very happy with all this, it also lacked a lot of sense of accomplishment. He really hoped to teach Naruto, his teacher's child, well.
"But it's good this way. I can finish it early and go back early to solve my house problem."
Kakashi thought in his mind, and then he took a few people and set off again.
"Thank you for your hard work. When you get to my house, I will definitely make it up to you."
Along the way, Dazna also felt quite embarrassed.
Although he didn't know why these Konoha ninjas suddenly agreed, he knew that this was an opportunity to deal with Kado, and he had to blast these Konoha ninjas.
It's just that his words had some backlash. Kakashi just looked at him calmly, shook his head and said indifferently.
"I just hope you can finish repairing the bridge quickly so that we can return to Konoha."
While the two were talking, Xiang Rin suddenly made a gesture, and Kakashi's eyes narrowed, and he stopped immediately.
"There are two of them, standing in separate positions. They are not weak in strength."
Xiang Rin directly explained the situation in the shortest words, while Zuosuke nodded to Kakashi, and then took a step forward.
"Fire Release: The Art of Fireball!"
Along with the surge of chakra, a huge fireball appeared instantly, and then blasted fiercely towards the woods on the side.
The woods were instantly ignited, and a figure hidden in it ran out before the fireball attacked.
Kakashi looked at the figure, and then he sighed softly.
"Sure enough, it's here. The expected big fish. This mission has reached the level of an A-level mission. It seems that if we don't capture the entire Country of Waves, Konoha will really lose its blood."
Kakashi muttered silently in his heart, and his momentum gradually began to shrink, but he pretended to be relaxed.
"Oh, my, if I'm not mistaken, this person in front of me should be Momochi Zabuza, the escaped ninja from Kirigakure Village. I didn't expect to meet you here."
"Runaway Ninja?"
Naruto was confused, and Xianglin bumped him with her elbow.
"It's just a traitor, let's put it in a nicer way."
"Rebel, isn't it possible that our mission will be..."
When Naruto heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and Xianglin also nodded.
"Maybe it's A-level, so it's not a loss. Besides, we won't lose either."
Zabuzan, who was standing on the beheading sword, turned back. Naturally, he didn't hear the conversation between Naruto and Kaoru. He looked at Kakashi and his voice was a little low.
"I didn't expect that in a small place like the Land of Waves, I would be lucky enough to meet Konoha's famous Hatake Kakashi. It seems that things are getting a little troublesome.
Out of caution, let me ask, Kakashi, can you hand that old man over to me?"
Kakashi chuckled: "Ah, although I really want to promise you, this old man still owes me the reward for the mission, so I can only apologize."
"Is it a matter of money?" Zabuza raised an eyebrow: "No matter how much it costs, how about I pay double the price!"
Zabuza's words immediately made Tatsuna a little nervous, and he immediately turned to look at Kakashi.
Fortunately, Kakashi did not disappoint him, he shrugged and continued to chuckle.
"Although I still want to agree to you, there are some complications here. It involves the interests of the village, so I can't agree."
"That means there's nothing to talk about."
"Can you wait until we complete the mission and then kill him?"
"It seems there is nothing to talk about."
The conversation between the two was extremely fast, and their hostile relationship was completely confirmed within a few seconds. The atmosphere solidified in an instant, and with the falling leaves in the distance, there was a hint of chill in the air.
"Naruto, Sasuke, Kaori, protect Tazuna, and keep an eye on the guy who didn't come out."
Kakashi said in a low voice, and Naruto and the others nodded instantly and said it was okay. Their ninja skills were much higher than in the original work.
"Hmph, I heard that you no longer have the Sharingan, so you can no longer be called Sharingan Kakashi, and you have picked up the swordsmanship again, and it seems that you want to recreate your father's glory."
Zabuza sneered. Following his words, mist suddenly appeared around him.
With every second that passes, the fog will become darker. It is foreseeable that it will be impossible to see anything here in the near future.
"I don't know how much of your father's power you can unleash.
When I was in Kirigakure ANBU, I had your information in the manual I carried with me. Even if you no longer have the Sharingan, it will still be there.
I want to see if you still have the qualifications to stay here!"
"In fact, it's better not to try this kind of thing, because it is a very dangerous move."
Kakashi shook his head slightly. His right hand was already on a silver short sword behind him, but his left hand took out a few strange-looking kunai.
"Ninjutsu, Kirigakure's art!"
Zabuza quickly formed seals with his hands, and the dense fog around him became denser in an instant.
His body seemed to be completely integrated with the thick fog, no longer distinguishable from each other, and his figure was completely lost from everyone's sight.
"The Kirigakure Jutsu, it's really the starting ninjutsu of Kirigakure Village that has been around for thousands of years!"
Kakashi sighed, walked to the other side of Naruto and the others, and looked at the lake in front of him. In the thick fog, the lake seemed unreal.
But he didn't pay too much attention. He held his breath and observed the situation around him, and the chakra in his body was constantly increasing.
He quietly glanced at Naruto and the three of them, and saw that these three people still remained calm and collected in such a thick fog, and were not frightened by your scene.
This made Kakashi nod silently in his mind. Although leading a genius made him feel tired, he felt very comfortable physically...
