Naruto Alchemist

Chapter 85 Basement

Looking at Sakumo Hatake, who was smiling but not smiling, he said in a dissatisfied tone, "I'm just an honorary advisor to Anbe,"

"Honorary consultant is just a title with little power, and I don't feel that I need to take any responsibility for it."

"No, you're wrong." Hatake Sakumo shook his head, "When you enjoy the convenience brought to you by the title of honorary consultant, you are already a member of Anbe."

"Sato Sasuke, listen up."

Seeing Sakumo Hatake whose expression suddenly became serious in front of him, Susuke was taken aback for a moment, then unconsciously straightened his waist and stood up, looking at Sakumo Hatake.

"This is the person in charge of the Anbu, Sakumo Hatake gave you the first task." Sakumo Hatake took out a scroll from his pocket and handed it to Sangsuke.

"Please be sure to complete the task I assigned carefully."

"What is this?" Sangzhu took the scroll in doubt, and at the same time as he took the scroll, a system prompt sounded in his ear, which he hadn't heard for a long time.

"Ding, the host triggers a side mission."

Since I got the reward in the last lottery draw and saw the 'door of truth', I have not received any news from the system for more than a month. If it is not for myself, I can still use various functions of the system. I even started to wonder if there was something wrong with the system.

But at this time, hearing the system's familiar prompt sound and the prompt box of the side mission, Sangzhu felt inexplicably at ease.

[Sub-task: The Scourge of the Tailed Beast. 】

[The members of the Uzumaki clan from the Uzumaki country all have quite strong physiques. Yunyin Village, who suffers from being unable to control the tailed beasts, learned that Uzumaki Kushina, the survivor of the Uzumaki clan, is currently in Konoha. A diplomatic mission was sent to Konoha, intending to take the opportunity to snatch Kushina Uzumaki in the name of diplomacy. 】

[Protect Uzumaki Kushina from being snatched away by cloud ninja, complete side missions to reward two silver pocket watches, and a chance to draw a lottery on the turntable. 】

Sansuke uncovered the scroll that Hatake Sakumo gave him. The scroll only briefly explained the background and recent status of Yunyin Village, and the information provided was not even as detailed as the system.

"So, what do I need to do?" Sangzhu put away the scroll and asked seriously.

"We ask you to protect yourself." Hatake Sakumo said with a serious expression, "The target of Yunyin Village is probably you."

"If their target is you, they will probably do it tonight."

"According to the itinerary provided by the Yunyin Village Mission, they will leave Konoha Ninja Village this afternoon and return to the Land of Thunder."

"But according to Anbu's surveillance, four members of the Yunyin Village mission have left and are lurking in the civilian area of ​​the village. We have every reason to suspect that they will invade Sato's house tonight and forcibly rob you."

"Take me away? As for what?" Sangsuke laughed dumbly. If he hadn't received information from the system and knew that their target was Jiu Xinnai, Sangsuke would have been misled by the news and believed it to be true.

"It seems that you don't know how important you are." Hatake Sakumo tapped his knuckles rhythmically on the table, and said slowly: "Master Hokage should have told you about the extermination of the Sato family more than half a year ago." Bar."

Sangzhu nodded, "I remember that Yunyin Village also lost a group of outstanding blacksmiths, and they issued a statement saying that this was a targeted conspiracy by Yuyin Village."

"Actually, this is also a lie, just like Konoha, they have not been able to find out who the main messenger behind the scenes is." Hatake Sakumo said with a slightly cunning smile on his face, "But the four major countries that suffered losses are all consistent. Land, pointing the finger at the land of rain that has no loss."

"The leader of the Land of Rain, Sanshoyu Hanzo doesn't care about this, because he relies on his strength and doesn't bother to argue."

"Other countries also felt that it didn't matter at first. After all, everyone has lost, and everyone is at the same starting point, and they are also facing the problem of insufficient armaments."

"But your appearance broke the balance between the four great powers."

Sangzhu was stunned by this, "I broke the balance?"

"Thirty high-quality ninja knives were forged within a week, which is something that even the craftsmen of the older generation could not do." Hatake Sakumo paused, "Even surpassed your father, and was Tokisada Sato known as the 'Hammer of God'."

"What if you were given a few more weeks to forge? How about a few months, or even a year?"

"So, protect yourself." Hatake Sakumo said, "This is not only a task assigned to you as the leader of Anbu, but also an instruction given to you as the teacher of this class."

"Whether it's out of interest considerations or emotional considerations, Konoha can't lose you."

"Actually, I really hope that you can learn from Teacher Shizhen in forging." Hatake Sakumo, who was about to leave at the door of the classroom, suddenly turned around and said to Sangsuke.

"What to learn?"

"Three days of fishing, five days of drying nets." Hatake Sakumo smiled, without further explanation, he believed that Sansuke could understand what he meant.

Behind what Hatake Sakumo couldn't see, Sansuke shook his head.

Clever as helpless, he naturally understood what Hatake Sakumo meant.

What Hatake Sakumo meant was nothing more than to let himself, like his father Tokisada Sato, downplay his own existence, so that others would feel that he, a blacksmith, would not pose a threat to other countries.

If Sato's family hadn't been exterminated, and if Sansuke hadn't obtained alchemy, after hearing Hatake Sakumo's words today, he would probably have made the same choice as his father, choosing to hide his strength and bide his time.

However, various factors in reality determine that he will not follow the same path as Sato Tokisada.

"Sorry to disappoint you, Teacher Shuo Mao."

**********************************
At night, Sato's house.

In this sweltering summer night, several figures in black cloaks were hiding around Sato's house. They watched Sato's house closely and paid attention to the movement around Sato's house.

They are elites from Anbu who are good at concealing aura and protecting important people.

"Report the situation." A deep male voice asked on the radio.

"The subject of protection, Sato Sasuke, took a shower at [-] o'clock in the evening, and after eating, he entered the study as usual, without any abnormalities."

"Continue to monitor closely, and we cannot let the people of Yunyin Village hurt him."

"Yes!"

The surroundings returned to silence, and the Anbe elite hidden in the darkness continued to pay attention to the movement around them, protecting the people in Sato's family.

***********
Sato's house, in the alchemy workshop.

Sangzhu and Li looked at the map in their hands with sad faces.

"This is what you can get, the latest Konoha map?" Sangsuke looked at Li with some dissatisfaction.

"Konoha's map is so simple, what can I do?" Li's tone was a little aggrieved.

"Forget it, I know the approximate location, so let's follow the route map you drew first." Sangzhu shook his head helplessly.

"By the way, are you sure there won't be anything like drainpipes or septic tanks on this route?"

"Don't worry, absolutely not!" Li patted his slightly flat chest, and said to himself: "After all, I am also from Anbe, so I can be sure about this little thing."

"If you don't have a chest, who would slap your chest?"

Sangzhu complained silently in his heart, then moved the floor tiles under the desk, and a tunnel entrance appeared in front of him and Li.

It was pitch black in the tunnel, Sangzhu was walking ahead with a flashlight, and Li followed closely behind.

Soon, they came to the end of the tunnel, a slightly larger basement.

"Is this the secret basement of the Sato family?" Li wondered, "Why is there nothing here?"

"The basement was just dug out last week, what else can you expect?" Sangzhu angrily threw a ball of cloth at Li, Li smiled and rubbed the cloth apart .

It is a pair of gray gloves with patterns drawn on it.

"let's start."

"Destination, Uzumaki Kushina's house."
