Escape From Konoha Chapter 572

  Chapter 572 Mission

   "Did the third player be selected so quickly? According to my estimation, I thought it would take a while longer."

   After receiving Tsunade's order, Tenzo came to Hokage's office at the first time, and he should be a little surprised by his expression.

  It has been more than half a month since he took over the seventh class. Using this half month, Tianzang is basically familiar with the business of the seventh class, and also understands how to get along with Naruto and Sakura.

  Currently under his leadership, the seventh class has completed a C-level task, and there are several D-level tasks that do odd jobs.

   "Ah, I originally planned to select a ninja from the Hinata branch family to be incorporated into the seventh class, but the plan couldn't keep up with the changes... Anyway, you should take a look at the information on this person first."

   Tsunade handed over a document, Tianzang stepped forward to take the document, opened it and scanned it at a glance.

   Before finishing reading, Tianzang frowned directly: "The root?"

   Tsunade nodded, holding a teacup in his hand, looking out of the window, Yoyo said: "That's right, Danzo arranged for him to come in. His name is Sai, and he is the same age as Naruto, but his name should be a pseudonym. In Konoha's ninja file, there is no record about him."

   Having said that, Tsunade clicked his lips.

  Generally speaking, even for root ninjas, the records of their ninja files cannot be blank.

  At least the basic information before they joined the root will be kept for reference.

  But this ninja named 'Sai' has no record.

   Obviously, this person is an orphan adopted by Genbu since he was a child, and he has received the most rigorous training from Genbu since he was a child, forgetting himself and life, until he becomes a qualified tool that only exists for missions.

  Tianzang looked at the photo on the information, he was a teenager about thirteen or fourteen years old, with black hair, and he looked immature, but his squinted smiling face gave people a false... a feeling of nothingness. The sense of emptiness, which is even more false than false, does not seem like a living person.

  Ninjas who can train this kind of 'doll' can only do it at the root among Konoha.

   "Before, he was ordered by Nebu's superiors to follow Asami Masumi from the medical department, but unfortunately, he was caught by the other party and sent to the torture department for custody... Although he was released on bail by the advisory group a few days ago, according to Yibixi, he is a troublesome brat who is very stubborn and doesn't know what pain is."

   Tsunade continued to explain.

   "It won't help if you can get Yibixi, it seems that I have a headache now."

  Tianzang scratched his head, feeling that things were troublesome.

  Ibixi is Konoha's interrogation expert. If even he can't be tortured, then the only way to find out is to let the Yamanaka Clan's Heart Turning Technique.

  However, the brains of ninjas like Roots have been cast with very powerful spells, and it is very difficult to obtain information from their brains.

   "Not necessarily. From the perspective of ninja ability, he is a very good ninja. According to the information sent by Nebu, he once successfully assassinated a special jnin from another country by himself."

   Tsunade said this, his eyes became serious.

   "Assassination...especially a Jōnin? Did it succeed? A Jōnin...how is that possible?"

  Tianzang's face was startled, and he quickly flipped through the information file in his hand. When he turned to one page, his body stiffened immediately, and his pupils dilated instantly.

   "With the inhumane training method of the root, I don't think it's strange even if you assassinate Ojonin."

   Tsunade sighed.

   "That being said, that's Jonin too."

  Although Tianzang has also heard that there is a genius who can defeat the Jnin as a Jnin, but hearing it and seeing it with his own eyes are two different things.

   "His secret technique is very special, suitable for exploration and assassination, and he can also draw flying creatures for people to ride. Although the appearance looks like Yin Dun, the essence is actually the use of Yang Dun. You should pay attention to it."

   Tsunade reminded.

"yes."

  Tianzang grasped the document in his hand tightly, with a serious expression on his face.

   "Starting today, I introduce a new teammate to you."

  On the open space on the bank of the river, Tianzang summoned Naruto and Sakura to meet here.

   Besides the three of them, there was a fourth person present.

   is a boy of thirteen or fourteen years old, with short black hair, and the color of his skin is the kind of pale, scary white that has not seen the sun for a long time.

   On the contrary, the clothes are mainly black on the opposite side of white, which makes his skin paler.

   "This is Sai. From now on, he will be a member of the seventh class."

   Tianzang introduced for the two of them.

   "Captain Yamato, why are you suddenly adding new members at this time?"

  Naruto asked incomprehensibly.

   "A team is usually composed of four people. Moreover, this is what Hokage-sama means. Only in this way can the seventh class be able to quickly accept more advanced tasks."

  Tianzo explained for Naruto.

   "Is that so, since this is the case, there is nothing I can do. I am Uzumaki Naruto, hello."

  Naruto stepped forward to greet the boy named Sai.

   "Hi, I'm Sai."

   Sai still squinted and smiled.

   "Well, Sai, right? Can you stop laughing like this, I always feel that it will give people a bad feeling. And you have been staring at me since just now, do you have any opinion on me?"

  Naruto asked puzzledly.

   "No, I don't have any opinion on you. I was just thinking about how to cover you, a guy who needs to be protected and has no balls, in this team."

  After Sai said this with a flat smile, the air fell into a deathly silence.

   "No... no balls?"

  Naruto was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and suddenly became furious, smoke from the seven holes.

   "You bastard, what did you just say? Say I don't have balls!?"

   Regardless of whether this is a new teammate or not, Naruto rolled up his sleeves, clenched his fists, and prepared to go up and fix the opponent.

   "Hey, calm down, Naruto, although what he said is a bit wrong, but there is no need to go up and hit people."

  Sakura held Naruto to stop the situation from getting worse.

  After persuading Naruto, Sakura also turned her head to look at Sai and said, "I said to you, did Naruto offend you in the past? Anyway, we will be members of a team from now on, so it's best not to say such things again. If you continue like this, I can only ask you to quit."

  A tone full of lessons.

   "Hehe, isn't it? I really like ugly girls like you who feel good about themselves."

   Sai thought he had a perfect smile.

   There was silence for three seconds.

   "You bastard, tell me clearly? What do you mean by ugly girl? Believe it or not, I will punch you to death!?"

  Feeling that her chest was going to explode with anger, Sakura's fists began to harden, she went forward and grabbed Sai's collar, and lifted him up, the veins on both sides of her temples throbbing violently.

  I believe that if Sai does not give a reasonable explanation, this conflict is inevitable.

  Looking at the suddenly chaotic scene, Tianzang shrugged and sighed silently.

   had no choice but to step forward and separate Sakura and Sai, so as not to escalate the conflict.

   "Okay, you can all be quiet. Sai, why did you say that just now? Although I know that you entered the seventh class for special reasons, but if you continue like this, I can only ask Hokage-sama to kick you out of the seventh class. No matter what, the spirit of cooperation in the team must come first."

   After Tianzang pulled Sakura away, he stared at Sai seriously.

  Naruto and Sakura looked at Sai in the same way, with dissatisfaction in their eyes.

   Obviously they think so too, and Saii needs a reasonable explanation.

"Feel sorry."

   Sai suddenly bent down and apologized to the three.

   Then he straightened up, and under the watchful eyes of the three, he took out a book from his arms and spread it out for the three of them to read.

"Book?"

  Naruto blinked, not knowing what the other party was doing, why he took out the book.

   "This book is..."

  Sakura looked at the title of the book, it was called "100 Ways to Communicate Normally with People".

   "Because this book says that the best way to communicate with people is to smile. If you smile, you can communicate with people normally, and even if you say something that is too much, you will be forgiven."

   Sai explained a sentence, then scratched his head in trouble and said:

   "It just seems that this is not the case now. Even if you smile, you will still be targeted."

   "Of course, those words of yours are too much, they are no longer in the category of joking! Moreover, it is best not to read such messy books!"

  Sakura couldn't help criticizing, and complained a lot.

"Feel sorry."

   Sai continued to apologize, the smile on his face remained the same, but it made people feel no warmth, only a hollow nothingness.

   "Sai, don't you know how to get along with people? Read this kind of book?"

   As if thinking of something, Naruto's tone was slightly silent, as if he could see his past self on Sai's body.

  The same is out of gregariousness, can't speak according to the atmosphere, wants to join the group, but doesn't know how to do it.

   Even now, it is very difficult for him to see the atmosphere and speak clearly.

   "Well, I haven't been taught such knowledge since I was a child. Moreover, I don't have any opinions on you. Rather, you are like air to me, and I don't feel a sense of existence."

   Sai said with a smile.

  The false smile made Naruto and Sakura look at each other in dismay.

   On Sai, there is an extremely incomplete personality defect, they are so sure in their hearts.

   "Impossible, don't you have any friends? In school, at least one or two friends..."

  Naruto asked in disbelief.

   "No... I didn't go to a ninja school. In my education, there are only tasks and how to become an excellent ninja. Besides, any feelings are cumbersome."

  Hearing Sai's words, even Tenzo's expression began to change.

"How can it be?"

   "I come from the roots. The elder Shimura Danzo who attacked the Third Hokage a few months ago is my boss."

   Sai paused for a moment before revealing the fact.

  Naruto and Sakura stared wide-eyed, looking at Sai in disbelief.

   "You three, let's stop here for chatting, and then it's time to perform the task."

  Tianzang clapped his palms, signaling for everyone to focus.

  Although he was somewhat concerned about Sai's words, Naruto calmed down and turned to Tenzo.

   Tianzang glanced at the three of them, and announced: "This mission is a C-level mission, to eliminate the large wild boars wandering around the nearby villages. Although you are all ninjas, wild boars are not easy to deal with, so remember to be careful then."

"yes."

   "Ninja Law Super Beast Fake Painting!"

   With a speed as fast as lightning, quickly draw the outline of the creature with a brush on the unfolded scroll.

   Then, Sai injected chakra, and the 'creature' on the scroll suddenly became three-dimensional, breaking away from the plane of the inner scroll, forming a living ink painting.

  It was a black snake running across the woodland as fast as lightning, entwining the wild boar who was digging the soil with its fangs.

  The wild boar that was attacked hadn't let out a deep roar, but the sound was swallowed back from its throat.

   I saw the wild boar's strong body tilted twice, twisted and fell down. Judging from its appearance, it should have been strangled to death.

"Amazing!"

   Seeing Sai easily kill a wild boar, Sakura exclaimed.

  Although it is nothing to defeat a wild boar head-on, wild boars are very alert and it is difficult to approach them.

  However, Sai's ninjutsu can kill wild boars without making a sound. If it is used on humans... Sakura could not help but shudder.

  Intuition told her that Sai's assassination ability was terrifying.

   "It's nothing. Every mission I have performed in the past is much more difficult than this."

   Sai didn't mean to show off, but to tell the truth.

   Walking out of the dark, Saii ignored the wild boar's body and quietly lurked towards the next wild boar.

   Later, he used the same method to deal with the second wild boar without arousing any alarm.

  In the forest, there is only the sound of the wind blowing, and the silence is abnormal.

   "I heard that the root belongs to Anbu, is this true?"

  Knowing that the next task will become very simple, Sakura easily followed and asked such a casual question.

  Sai tilted his head slightly, then turned his face, looked forward, and answered Sakura's question while walking: "Yes, Nemo is also affiliated with Anbe, but this is only a nominal affiliation. It is Danzo-sama, not Hokage, who really dominates Nemo's activities."

   "Danzo... that person..."

  Sakura paused for a while, seeming to be apprehensive.

   "Danzo-sama is the leader of the martial arts faction in the village. Even though he is in prison now, he is still secretly manipulating the voice of the martial arts faction. It is Danzo-sama's will to let me join the seventh class."

   Saitou didn't reply either.

   "So, his purpose is..."

   Regarding this question, Sai did not answer, but chose to remain silent.

  He found the third wild boar, continued to use secret techniques, drew a black snake, and solved the wild boar.

   "Okay, the wild boars on this side have been dealt with, and then we only look at the captain and Naruto's side."

"good."

  Sakura nodded, followed Sai's footsteps, and walked to the agreed meeting place.

  Back to the meeting place, before Tianzang and Naruto came back, Sakura said: "Sai, I'll go and see them, you should be here alone, right?"

   "It's okay, nothing will happen to me alone."

   Sai didn't care about Sakura's movements, but chose to sit with his back against a tree, enjoying the gentle breeze from the forest.

  Hair was blown, Sai took out a drawing book slightly bigger than a hand from the ninja bag, holding a pen in his hand, opened the drawing book to the middle page, looked at the pattern on it, and fell silent.

   Until a voice came from my ear:

   "Sai, I didn't expect you to be so good at drawing."

   Sai narrowed his eyes, turned his head to look beside him, Naruto appeared here at some point, commenting on his painting.

   "Is it a picture book? It's very cute. If you don't mind, can you let me have a look?"

  Sakura also walked over to take a look, and was immediately attracted by Sai's cute painting style, and began to ask.

   "Sorry, I haven't figured out how to end this picture book. Moreover, I have decided not to give this picture book to others."

   Sai shook his head, rejected Sakura's request, and put away the drawing book.

  Sakura's eyes showed disappointment. She could tell that Sai was very wary of people and things outside, and seemed to not want others to find out about her mental journey.

   "What, such a stinky fart, even if you show it to me now, I don't want to."

  Naruto made a cut and turned his head aside.

   "This is the best."

  Sai didn't care, put the drawing book into the ninja bag, and stood up from the ground.

   Tianzang, who was watching everything silently, didn't say anything, but his eyes were full of scrutiny when he looked at Sai.

  Intuition told him that Sai's picture book contained his most important thoughts.

   "Okay, stop arguing, the task is completed, and then return to the village to do business."

   Tianzang, as the captain, made the final decision.

   "How is it, Yamazaki, have you found the target?"

  On the wilderness of the country of birds, Chiba Aya looked at Yamazaki Hisao who fell from the sky, and asked if the other party found the target.

  Hisaku Yamazaki, who landed from the sky, put away the flying ninja on his back, which looked like an ordinary metal box bag.

  He gasped heavily, came to Cai and said, "No, I have searched the land with a radius of hundreds of kilometers, but I haven't found the target. Judging from this situation, the target is probably no longer within the territory of the Bird Country, but has gone to another country."

   "This group of guys can run too well. If you can't determine the range, it's not the way to find it like headless chickens."

   Cai frowned, feeling troubled.

   "No way, the target has a special ability. The team that chased it before was injured. We have to be more careful here."

  Hisaku Yamazaki lowered his tone.

  Cai was about to strike up a conversation, when two figures came quickly from a distance.

  It is the leader of their team, Uchiha Yan, and the team member Uzumaka Rin.

   "Teacher Yan, we have no news from here."

   Without waiting for Uchiha Yan to ask, Cai took the initiative to report the search results here.

   Uchiha Yan frowned: "Aren't you gaining anything here?"

   "What are you doing, Yamazaki, you are flying in the sky, can you not find your target?"

  Xiang Rin glared at Yamazaki, as if complaining about his incompetence.

   "If you can't find it, you can't find it. Besides, my flying ninja gear is almost out of energy. You don't mind helping me recharge it."

   Saying that, Yamazaki took off the flying ninja gear on his back and put it in front of Xiang Rin.

   "Didn't you bring a spare 'battery' yourself?"

  Xiang Rin continued to stare.

   "I only brought four batteries when I came out this time, and now there are only two batteries left, so I have to save a little. After all, among our group, only you have the most chakra and recover quickly."

  The two stared at each other.

   "Okay, Xianglin, you can help Yamazaki recharge your chakra. Anyway, it doesn't need to consume anything for you."

   Uchiha Yan patted Xiang Rin on the shoulder and asked her to assist.

   "Damn it, I'm not a power bank!"

  Xiang Rin said so, but the body was still very honest and put the palm of the palm on the groove of the flying ninja tool, and poured the chakra in the body into it desperately to charge it.

  After all, as the only air unit in the team, the role of Yamazaki Hisao can be imagined.

  Whether it is pursuit, search, or cover combat, its capabilities are top-notch.

   Soon, Xiang Rin felt a large amount of chakra in his body, successfully input it into the flying ninja, and the energy displayed on it was full.

"Thank you."

  Hisashi Yamazaki excitedly put the flying ninja back on his back. Although the flying ninja is very heavy for ordinary people, this weight is nothing to ninjas.

   Therefore, even with such a heavy flying ninja on his back, it will not affect Yamazaki's usual footsteps.

   "Okay, now let's focus on the next action. Judging from the current situation, the target is not in the country of birds, but to another country."

   Pulling the sniper rifle hanging on the back, Cai began to express her opinion.

   "If you are not in this country, it is quite troublesome to find."

  Xiang Rin said with a troubled expression.

  The country of birds does not deviate too much from the scope of the country of ghosts. Therefore, within the territory of this country, the country of ghosts has certain forces settled in, which can make it more convenient for the ninjas of the country of ghosts to operate here.

   But once beyond this range, trying to find out the exact target from the ninja world, and if the target is deliberately hidden, it is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.

   "Even if it's troublesome, keep looking for it. This is the task. Next, the troops will be divided into two groups. You go to the northeast to look for it, and I will go to the southeast. After you find it, don't rush in rashly. Remember to contact the wandering witches and debt collectors around for assistance."

   Uchiha Yan suggested.

"no problem."

   Cai thought about it and nodded in agreement.

  Karin and Yamazaki Hisashi also have no objections.

   "So, act."

  After saying that, Uchiha disappeared from the spot with the blink technique, and headed southeast.

  Watching the only Jonin in the team to leave, Cai, as the only Chunin among the remaining members, naturally assumed the role of captain, so she gave orders:

   "Let's go to the northeast to search, Xiang Rin and I will act below, Yamazaki, use your flying ninja and continue to search from the sky. Even if you dig three feet into the ground, you must find the target!"

"yes!"
