The Invisible Assassin of Konoha

Chapter 58 - The Big Boss Behind the Scenes - Ziraiya
"Ugh."

After returning home, Rikimaru still felt uneasy. At that time, he thought about creating the scene where the two Chunin and Hisaki Hinata died together, but finally gave up.

Firstly, it was because it was unprofessional, and secondly, Hinata Toshiaki could not be the opponent of those two, if it was created, there would be more flaws, it would be better to destroy the corpses and wipe out the traces.

For the next few days, he lived a normal life. After receiving the ninja uniform, he waited for the new team in the village.

Fortunately, ten days passed, and no one came to the door. Riki's heart gradually calmed down. These ten days have made him feel very depressed, and he is really tired of pretending to be nonchalant every day.

Worrying about the Hyuga clan is one, and the other is worrying about Danzo. With Danzo's personality, if two of his subordinates die, he will never let it go. Maybe he will send someone to spy on him, so he dare not make any mistakes. exposed.

Although he can't take the initiative to inquire, Riki also has a way. His family runs a restaurant, and after hearing about it in the restaurant for a few days, he has already understood the subsequent development.

The Hyuga clan had indeed found the place where his corpse was destroyed, and also the location of the battle, but because Rikimaru had fought several times, the traces of the battle location were very complicated, and it was not easy to restore them.

I heard that the Hinata patriarch planned to go to war at the beginning to interrogate the ninja who took the Chunin exam, and even asked the third Hokage to let the people of the famous Konoha family Yamanaka clan cooperate with the investigation, and wanted to use the Yamanaka clan's secret technique to find the murderer.

It was just rejected by the third generation. After all, the third generation is the Hokage of the village, not the Hokage of the Hyuga clan. Although the ability of the Yamanaka clan is powerful, it will cause certain damage to the person being cast. Of course, he cannot do this kind of harm to his companions. decision.

Moreover, the other members of the Hyuga clan did not agree with such a high-profile investigation by their patriarch. They were dissatisfied with the fact that the patriarch did not engrave his son with a bird in a cage, and felt that he was using his power for personal gain.

Therefore, for those who are loyal to the family and feel that the family is higher than the patriarch, it is a good thing that Hyuga Toshiaki died. They identified the next patriarch as Hyuga Hizuru. Caged bird.

In short, Rikimaru didn't care about the struggle within the Hyuga clan, he only knew that he should be safe.

The shadow that had been hanging over his head for many days finally disappeared, and Rikimaru became very relaxed.

"Teacher Jiraiya, why are you here?"

Seeing Jiraiya walk into the store, Rikimaru was very surprised, this was the first meeting after their team dispersed.

"What? Why can't I come to your place for dinner?"

Zilai also sat down carelessly, as if you could figure it out.

Riki was helpless, Jiraiya's temper was like this, to put it bluntly, he was thick-skinned, just like Obito Uchiha, he always came to his restaurant for dinner and never gave money.

Of course, although Jiraiya never gave money, it was not his intention, but Rikimaru's mother Yuzu insisted on not accepting it. Without this kind of consciousness, it should come or come.

It's just that Jiraiya doesn't give money for meals, but compensates in other aspects. For example, when the rewards for team missions were distributed in the past, they would always give a little more to Rikimaru. Opinion.

After a beautiful meal, Jilai also waved to Riki: "Riki, come with me, I have something to say to you."

Riki greeted his mother, and then came with Jiraiya. Under the leadership of Jiraiya, the speed of the two became faster and faster. In the end, Jiraiya led Riki to speed up, and did not stop until the edge of the village. .

"The few bugs have been shaken off."

Jiraiya clapped his hands, then looked at Rikimaru's puzzled expression: "In front of me, you kid, don't pretend."

Rikimaru looked innocent: "Pretend? Jiraiya-sensei, what am I pretending?"

Zilai snorted coldly with disdain: "I don't know you kid yet? You are simple on the surface, but you are full of bad things behind your back."

"Cough cough."

Riki coughed twice in embarrassment, didn't he just play tricks on him a few times before, is it necessary to humiliate himself like this?
"You have performed well these few days." Ji Lai also suddenly said, his expression became serious.

Rikimaru's eyes twitched, "Mr. Jiraiya, what do you mean?"

"What do I mean? You are still pretending to be a fart in front of me. I know exactly how many roundworms you have in your stomach."

Jilai also pointed at Riki, still full of disdain: "Do you think you do it cleanly? Killing a person and burning the corpse is called destroying the corpse? You were quite shrewd before, but I didn't expect you to be so fraught with things." .”

Riki's whole body trembled, and he took a deep breath: "Mr. Jiraiya, you, how do you know?"

If someone else said that in front of him, he would definitely think that the other party was testing him, but Zilai is different. He has been with Zilai for three years, so he naturally knows what kind of character Zilai is. If he didn't know the details, he would definitely Wouldn't say that.

"Humph."

Ji Lai also snorted, "I've been teaching you for nothing these past few years, but you're brave enough to kill the people sent by Danzang, but you even silenced that brat from Hyuga's clan. Are you really a master of arts and courage?"

With a sarcastic look, Rikimaru gradually felt relieved, the more Jiraiya behaved like this, the more it meant that Jiraiya would not hurt or betray him.

"Mr. Jiraiya, how did you know?"

Suddenly, he seemed to understand: "You haven't been following me, have you?"

Jilai also had a displeased face on his face: "You thought I wanted to follow you, that old bastard Danzo is not a good guy, I was worried that he would have bad intentions against you during the Chunin exam, so I followed you all the time, I didn't expect to be really caught I got it."

"That old thing's intelligence is accurate enough. He actually sent two Zhongnin to arrest you, but you kid surprised me even more. Those two boys are not weak, but they were killed by you in the end, hiding their secrets."

In the end, he was really upset, because he was worried about Riki, so he followed, but he didn't know that Riki had such great strength.

"Your teleportation move is not a conventional teleportation technique, is it? I didn't teach you before, so what's going on?"

If someone asked him that, Riki would definitely not show his cards and secrets, but Zirai was different, this was someone who was sincerely kind to him.

Even though the team had already been disbanded, he was still secretly protecting himself. He only felt this concern from his mother, so he answered Jiraiya's question directly.
