Chapter 191 Return to Konoha for a temporary rest! The difference between one hand!
After Fujiwara Tetsuya entered Kawanin Village!
Even though the surrounding Kawanin Ninja were aware of Fujiwara Tetsuya's Anbu identity!
Even though they knew!
In last night's battle!
Countless comrades had died by Fujiwara Tetsuya's hands!
But at this moment! Not a single person had the courage to seek trouble with Fujiwara Tetsuya!
Kawanin Village didn't have many Water Release Ninjutsu recorded!
There were five Rank B level ones! And two Rank A level ones!
Among them, there was even a Forbidden Technique suspected to be beyond Rank A level!
However! After Fujiwara Tetsuya scrutinized them for several hours!
He only copied two Rank B and one Rank A Ninjutsu from them!
Because! The other Ninjutsu! In Fujiwara Tetsuya's opinion!
Had too many drawbacks! And too many restrictions!
Wasting time on such expendable Ninjutsu! Was absolutely an extremely foolish thing to do!
After the alliance was completely finalized!
Fujiwara Tetsuya! Sakumo Hatake and the others!
Only stayed on the outskirts of Kawanin Village for one day!
When the Kawanin delivered the bodies of the fallen Konoha Ninja!
Fujiwara Tetsuya, Sakumo Hatake, and their group left the Land of Rivers directly!
Returning to the temporary base on the border of the Land of Fire!
This operation!
Although it eliminated the hidden danger in the Land of Rivers!
Konoha! Also paid the price of nearly a full squad for it!
Of course! Fujiwara Tetsuya didn't have much emotional reaction to these strangers whose names he couldn't even recall!
Strictly speaking!
"Sarutobi! Yoru! I'll leave the bodies of our comrades to you two!"
"And!"
"Please deliver this scroll to Hokage-sama!"
Before the situation with Sunagakure was completely resolved!
Sakumo Hatake couldn't return!
However, people like Sarutobi! Fujiwara Tetsuya! And several other Anbu members of the Fourth Squad!
After assisting Sakumo Hatake in pacifying Kawanin Village!
Had already completed their mission!
It was time to return to Konoha!
"Senior Sakumo! Don't worry!"
"We will handle this matter!"
"As for Sunagakure! We'll leave it to you!"
...Konoha! Hokage Building!
When Sarutobi! Fujiwara Tetsuya! And several Anbu came to meet Hiruzen Sarutobi!
They found him absent!
"Advisor Torifu! Advisor Mito! Are you also waiting for Hokage-sama!"
Fujiwara Tetsuya's gaze lingered on Utatane Koharu for a few seconds!
Then he withdrew it again!
Fortunately! Sarutobi was still with him!
Otherwise! If he had to interact with Utatane Koharu!
He might not be able to suppress the anger in his heart and start arguing again!
"Is that Sarutobi!"
Utatane Koharu and Homura Mitokado were clearly aware of Sarutobi's identity!
While responding!
They slowly stood up!
And walked towards Sarutobi's direction!
"Hiruzen is not in Konoha right now!"
"Before Hiruzen left! He temporarily entrusted the Village's affairs to us!"
"Not in Konoha!"
"That's right! An accident happened in the Land of Grass!"
"Hiruzen personally led people to deal with it!"
Perhaps because Fujiwara Tetsuya and the others were present!
Utatane Koharu and Homura Mitokado didn't say too much!
In the time that followed!
After Sarutobi handed over the scroll to the two, finalized the matters of the fallen comrades' burial and the replenishment of the Fourth Squad's personnel!
He took Fujiwara Tetsuya and the others! And left the Hokage Office!
The reason Hiruzen Sarutobi left Konoha!
Although Utatane Koharu and Homura Mitokado had concealed some information!
Fujiwara Tetsuya and the others! Still learned everything at the Anbu base!
From the Anbu who remained there!
The reason Hiruzen Sarutobi personally led a team to provide support!
Was because of Danzo!
Hiruzen Sarutobi sent Danzo to Kusagakure Village! His original intention was to have Danzo disrupt the relationship between Kusagakure Village and Iwagakure!
To prevent them from forming an alliance!
However! Everyone underestimated Danzo's arrogance!
Unlike in Konoha! No matter what happened!
Hiruzen Sarutobi would always back him up!
But! Kusagakure Village was different!
Danzo's arrogant demeanor deeply wounded the pride of the Kusagakure Village high-ranking officials!
Perhaps to teach Danzo a lesson!
Or perhaps to gain more benefits!
In short! The people of Kusagakure Village leaked information about Danzo and Root to the people of Iwagakure!
Thus! In this foreign land of the Land of Grass!
Another Kage-level battle erupted!
Iwagakure dispatched an elite force led by Roshi, the Four-Tails Jinchuriki, consisting of nearly a hundred Elite Chunin and higher-ranked Ninja!
They severely injured Danzo, leaving him half-crippled!
As for the accompanying Root members! Their losses were as high as about two-thirds!
They really are a pair of good buddies!
Thinking of this! Fujiwara Tetsuya silently sighed!
Although he was just a supporting character!
He was still blessed by fate!
Although there were many Anbu reserve members within the Anbu base!
It would still take several days of assessment to fill the vacancies in the Fourth Squad!
Of course! These matters! Were to be considered by people of Squad Leader level like Sarutobi!
And had little to do with Fujiwara Tetsuya!
After being out on a mission for more than ten days!
Fujiwara Tetsuya once again welcomed his vacation!
..."Tetsuya-kun!"
In the early morning! On the outskirts of the Uchiha Clan Grounds!
Fujiwara Tetsuya had shed his Anbu attire! And was wearing casual clothes!
With kirimaru by his side! He had arrived here early!
The moment Uchiha Mikoto saw Fujiwara Tetsuya!
Her bright eyes! Gradually curved into crescent moons!
"Mikoto! Long time no see!"
"Do you have time! I'm on vacation these few days!"
"Shall we go out for a walk together?"
Facing Fujiwara Tetsuya's invitation!
Uchiha Mikoto naturally wouldn't refuse!
After looking down at her attire! She quickly linked her arm with Fujiwara Tetsuya's!
Allowing Fujiwara Tetsuya to once again feel that long-lost softness!
"Tetsuya! What have you been doing all this time..."
"Can you tell me!"
Amidst the girl's gentle voice!
Fujiwara Tetsuya gradually lost himself!
"Of course! Mikoto, you don't know..."
As Fujiwara Tetsuya rambled on! The girl's clear laughter! Traveled further and further away!
Land of Grass!
After Danzo was defeated by the Iwagakure Ninja led by Roshi, the Four-Tails Jinchuriki!
Although he narrowly escaped!
He fell into a joint pursuit by the Iwagakure Ninja and Grass Ninja!
All major routes leading to the Land of Fire!
Were guarded by large numbers of Grass Ninja!
As a result, Danzo and the remaining Root members could only secretly move, constantly changing their hiding places!
Bitterly waiting for reinforcements from the Land of Fire!
"Lord Danzo! Have something to eat!"
"Oh, it's Fukurou!"
"How is it! Just put it down for now!"
"I'll eat it later!"
Although his body was cold! And his stomach was already rumbling with hunger!
But at this moment! Danzo looked at the steaming grilled fish in Fukurou's hand!
Yet had no appetite whatsoever!
Recalling the scene of being pinned down and thrashed by Roshi, the Four-Tails Jinchuriki that day!
Danzo's heart was filled with rage!
It was also because of this defeat that Danzo truly began to take his own strength seriously!
He was a Kage-level Ninja, that was true!
But between Kage-level Ninja!
There was also a vast difference!
Some! Could single-handedly overpower a Tailed Beast!
While others could only be single-handedly overpowered by a Tailed Beast!
"Perhaps... it's time to restart that experiment!"
After an unknown amount of time!
In the depths of that dark cave! Danzo's self-muttering groans gradually echoed!
