Chapter 355 Konohamaru leads the way for Akatsuki
Konoha.
On this day, Konoha was sunny and the sky was clear.
The villagers all had smiles on their faces and were busy every day, but in Ichiraku Ramen Restaurant, Uzumaki Naruto was obviously in a low mood.
"Ramen is ready Naruto."
With smiles on their faces, Uncle Ichiraku and Ayame prepared a bowl of ramen with extra ingredients for Naruto as usual.
"Thank you, Uncle Ichiraku."
Uzumaki Naruto expressed his gratitude, but he looked obviously down today, and there was also teacher Iruka who came to guide Naruto.
"Teacher Iruka, do you think I'm really useless? Everyone seems a little strange lately."
Uzumaki Naruto has been thinking a lot these past few days. Although many people in the village have recognized him, for some reason, the distance between his former companions seems to be widening.
In the entire Konoha, apart from the late Third Hokage, Iruka can be said to be the person who has the greatest influence on Naruto. He can almost be said to be both a teacher and a father.
"What about Naruto? How can I put it?"
Iruka also shook his head helplessly. After listening to Naruto's doubts, he began to persuade him helplessly.
"Naruto, sometimes the relationship between a man and a woman cannot be confused with companionship. You have completely confused relationship with companionship.
Sasuke and Senju Suzu have a personal relationship, it's not your place to get involved."
Iruka was also melancholy about Uzumaki Naruto's current state, but he could understand it. After all, he had been isolated since childhood and extremely lacked recognition. More importantly, he had never had a girlfriend.
This experience made Uzumaki Naruto cherish the feelings of his companions so much, even to the point of going a little too far.
"But Sasuke, and everyone else..."
This time, Uzumaki Naruto was eating the ramen in his bowl without the usual excitement and happiness. Instead, he talked about everyone's recent changes with a sad face.
"Iruka-sensei, I have been recognized by everyone, but why do my former companions seem to be distant from me?"
After hearing this, Iruka also had a headache. What could he say? Could it be that Uzumaki Naruto had gone too far before?
After thinking for a moment, considering his tone to avoid hurting Naruto, Iruka finally hesitated and whispered:
"Naruto, there is ironclad evidence of the coup d'état among the three clans. In addition, there is the human body research of the Root. The three major clans were involved. Lady Tsunade did not inform you that night because she was afraid that you would act impulsively. Why did you still..."
At this time, Iruka also sighed with a headache. He was also helpless that day.
To put it bluntly, the notice issued by the Hokage himself is also to give you a chance. After all, he was too close to the Third Hokage, so who knows if he is involved.
Ordering him to be in charge of the perimeter security was, to put it bluntly, giving him a chance to prove himself.
Although Umino Iruka deeply remembers the kindness shown to him by the Third Hokage, he is loyal to Konoha, not to any one person.
No matter who it is, as long as they do something to harm the village, he will refute it, including the Sarutobi clan of the Third Hokage.
"Teacher Iruka, how can this be possible? The third generation grandfather fought for Konoha... and now he wants to massacre an entire clan. Maybe their top leaders are involved, but I don't believe that everyone in the three clans is involved, and Konohamaru is even less likely to..."
When this matter was mentioned, Uzumaki Naruto was filled with anger. It had to be said that his naivety was a little too much.
"Naruto! This is a coup! It's not an individual act. As long as someone in the family's upper echelons is involved, the entire family will not be able to escape no matter what your reasons are.
And it is the most painful for the Hokage to make this decision. If she doesn't do it, it will bring unrest to the village!"
Although Umino Iruka was somewhat reluctant about this decision, he decided to support Konoha's stability, just like Jiraiya.
When they knew that the Fifth Hokage was powerful and had sufficient evidence, they had to stand on the side of the Fifth Hokage for the stability of Konoha.
If the three clans were indulged again, or if only the top leaders were executed, those who remained would always be a huge hidden danger for Konoha.
For the sake of Konoha's stability, Jiraiya chose to turn a blind eye, just like what the village did to Uchiha.
"How can this be? Konohamaru is innocent. Didn't Sasuke stay behind? Didn't the Third-Kai grandfather hurt Sasuke?"
Uzumaki Naruto still didn't understand the severity of the situation and spoke unwillingly, which left Iruka speechless.
Naruto didn't understand at all. Did the Third Hokage want to keep Uchiha Sasuke?
It was clear that Uchiha Itachi, the being who opened the Mangekyō, had left the village, and Sasuke was the only stable and even controlling switch.
Once something happens to Sasuke, Uchiha Itachi, who knows countless secrets of the village, will be a huge minefield.
Otherwise, how could the Uchiha clan have left a single descendant who didn't have the qualifications to open the Sharingan on the night of the clan extermination?
The legendary Uchiha clan's king of pressure resistance was the one who made the Third Hokage and his high-level officials ignore Sasuke's threats.
That's all his talent? He didn't even open his Sharingan when his clan was exterminated. They didn't think he was a big threat at all. The so-called genius was not at the same level as the geniuses in the ninja world they had seen, such as Kakashi, Itachi, and Shisui.
"Naruto……"
Iruka also had a headache. How to explain Naruto's stubbornness?
Having said that, it has almost been explained that as long as there is solid evidence of a coup to assassinate the Hokage and one person participates in the family's elimination game, it is all within the normal range.
Even the Fifth Hokage was open-minded enough not to implicate the families and ninjas who were once close to the Third Hokage.
For example, after the heart-pounding night of genocide, he is still working as a teacher in the Ninja School.
I thought I would be transferred, but I have to say that the Fifth Hokage Tsunade quickly calmed the people of Konoha by not pursuing the matter.
However, just as Uzumaki Naruto was talking to Iruka, several figures wearing black clothes and red clouds appeared outside the Konoha village.
……
Outside the tall walls of Konoha Village, there are big green trees everywhere.
On a green lawn, several Konoha ninjas were lying down.
Several Akatsuki members with black backgrounds and red clouds appeared.
"I didn't expect the boss to have six!"
Deidara said excitedly, and along the way he looked curiously at the six Akatsuki leaders who possessed the Rinnegan.
The mysterious Akatsuki leader Pain actually has six people. Even the old members of the organization only knew this for the first time.
"Ho ho, I didn't expect that capturing the Kyuubi would require the entire Akatsuki organization to mobilize."
Hoshigaki Kisame also grinned and spoke hoarsely, carrying the big sword Samehada on his shoulder.
"Wow, this time the preparations are so thorough, they actually have six bosses..."
The chatterbox masked Obito, now a member of the Akatsuki organization, was talking excitedly, which made Deidara at the side unable to help but show his seniority and said in a serious tone:
"A Fei, you must remember to respect your seniors. If you see something wrong, run away immediately. This time, Konoha's opponent is very powerful."
At the same time, there was Yin Yang Jue who was emitting a hoarse smile. After this group of Akatsuki members appeared, Tendo Pain looked indifferent.
"Everyone, please pay attention. Konoha is stronger than you can imagine this time. According to Zetsu's intelligence, Konoha's known Kage-level masters include Jiraiya of the Three Ninjas, Tsunade the Fifth Hokage, Uchiha Sasuke, and the Wood Release Ninja Senju Ya!"
It is known that there are four Kage-level masters in Konoha now. One of them has the legendary Wood Release that is comparable to the first Hokage, and the other has the Mangekyō Sharingan that is more powerful than Itachi. "Sharingan?"
When he heard about the Sharingan, Deidara showed a hint of anger. When he was about to confirm his opponent, Tendo Pain directly began to issue combat missions in a cold voice.
"In this mission, Hoshigaki Kisame, you and I will be responsible for creating chaos, and your ninja sword should absorb as much chakra as possible to maintain your combat power.
When we find the Nine-Tailed Fox target, we will capture him immediately. If we encounter any obstacles, A Fei,!"
When he said this, Tendo Pain's voice became noticeably heavier. Under Deidara's astonished gaze, the leader of the Akatsuki organization, Pain, actually said something that shocked him.
"Now is not the time for you to play dumb. If you encounter any obstacles, I will be responsible for holding you back. Your space ninjutsu is the most suitable for capturing the Nine-Tails."
This sentence directly exposed the terrifying strength of Afei and shocked Deidara.
"Hehe, it seems that there are even more terrifying forces in our organization."
Knowing that the masked man Afei was Uchiha Madara, Hoshigaki Kisame showed a hoarse smile.
It is obvious that this time they will stop pretending and will reveal their true colors.
Ah Fei's funny body language gradually disappeared under Deidara's astonished gaze, and was replaced by a member full of gloom and mystery.
"Understood. This time we will work together to capture the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. Deidara will hide outside and be ready to respond at any time."
The calm voice of the masked man Obito echoed, and Deidara, who was about to pat him on the shoulder, fell silent instantly.
Who is he! What is he doing!
Why did Ah Fei lie to him!
"Damn it! Liar!"
Deidara's personality made him instantly show anger towards the masked man Obito, because he really cared about this companion and younger brother.
"Chief I!"
"No need to say more, Deidara, your chakra is not enough to sustain a protracted battle!"
With a cold voice, Tendo Pain directly denied Deidara's strength.
Deidara's clay bomb detonation technique is indeed the ninjutsu that is most likely to create chaos, but Deidara's own chakra is also limited.
This time they are facing Konoha, and there is no telling how many ninjas there are in the village alone.
Among all the people in the Akatsuki organization this time, the masked man Obito's strength is the most mysterious, but it is definitely not bad. He is the man who is openly known as Uchiha Madara.
Not to mention Hoshigaki Kisame, who, with his large sword Samehada, is the man most suitable for a protracted battle.
Likewise, Deidara also has an advantage, which is making flying clay, which can form a good cover when he captures the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki and retreats.
And to create chaos, they have no shortage of Deidara's clay bombs.
"I understand!"
Deidara was able to become a member of the Akatsuki organization because he was extremely calm before he got too excited.
Chakra is indeed his shortcoming, of course this is only compared with this group of monsters. If compared with normal ninjas, his chakra is definitely not a shortcoming.
"Do you need my clay to take you in!?"
Deidara put his hands in his pockets and looked at A Fei with a look that was obviously unfriendly.
No one likes to be deceived. S-rank rebel ninjas like them all have strong wills.
"No need, with this kid here, we can get in easily."
Under the cold smile of the face-man Obito, as the Sharingan in his pupils rotated and the ripples in space rotated, a figure appeared.
"This is in... Konoha!?"
It was Sarutobi Konohamaru who appeared. At this moment, he was looking at the familiar figures in the village, but deep hatred emerged in his eyes.
"Sir, I know the barrier within the village, and..."
With this traitor around, everyone looked indifferent, after all, they were going to create chaos, so Konohamaru's presence was not of much use.
However, the masked man Obito laughed and said:
"This brat is the younger brother of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki Uzumaki Naruto. Maybe he can lead us to our target."
Seeing this, Sarutobi Konohamaru nodded hurriedly.
"Yes, yes, I am here, I will definitely lead you to find Brother Naruto, I am the grandson of the Third Hokage."
He didn't care what the other party was going to do, but as long as it could bring revenge on Konoha, he would help.
That night, when he faced Konoha, which was desperately slaughtering his family, there was no more warmth, only hatred.
If the masked man hadn't appeared and taken him away, he would never have been able to leave Konoha.
"Konoha! Damn it! Konoha without Grandpa and his family doesn't deserve to exist!"
Under the angry gaze of Sarutobi Konohamaru, he now wished that the anger in his eyes would burn the entire Konoha.
"Sir, I know Naruto's teacher Iruka. As long as we find Umino Iruka, he will definitely know where Naruto is."
As if to show his own value, Sarutobi Konohamaru hurriedly talked about his own value.
"Brother Naruto always tells sensei Umino Iruka before he goes out on a mission or practices. I can take you to find him."
At this moment, the masked man Obito and the leader of the Akatsuki organization, Tendo Pain, looked at each other, then nodded with a satisfied look.
"Okay, then we will sneak into Konoha first, and after we find the target, we will create chaos in another place and take the opportunity to quickly capture the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.
Everyone must be careful, this time in Konoha there is Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas, and a wood-style ninja who is rumored to be comparable to the first generation, so don't fight hard!"
"Yes!"
Following an order, the Animal Path, the masked man and Hoshigaki Kisame, led by Konohamaru, disguised themselves and headed towards the Konoha village.
Under the leadership of Sarutobi Konohamaru, they actually entered the Konoha village openly.
If you want to make changes to the barrier of a village, it is definitely not something that can be completed overnight. It is a huge project.
With the leadership of the fire traitor Sarutobi Konohamaru, and the hypnosis of the masked man Obito's Sharingan, the group sneaked into Konoha without alerting anyone.
"Hehe, I'm not good at fighting, but after entering Konoha, I will follow everyone to find the location of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki."
Under the hoarse smile of Black and White Zetsu, he had been hiding under Obito's feet.
However, Tendo Pain and the others who stayed outside were hiding in the forest.
However, what they didn't know was that the moment they stepped into Konoha, Uchiha Ya, who was playing with a pair of breasts in the Hokage's office, smiled.
"Sister Tsunade, it looks like someone is about to disturb us."
Tsunade, who had just experienced a battle and was refreshed but still blushing, couldn't help but show dissatisfaction. She originally wanted to have another chance, but someone dared to disturb her good time.
