Escape From Konoha

Vol 6 Chapter 12: Task

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

Tenzo, who received Tsunade's order, came to Hokage's office immediately, 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 at the same time, he also knows how to get along with Naruto and Sakura.

At present, under his leadership, the seventh class has completed a C-level task, and there are several D-level tasks for doing chores. level tasks.

"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 ten lines at a glance.

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

Tsunade nodded, holding a teacup in his hand, looking out of the window, and said leisurely: "Yes, 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 file, he was a boy 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.

Among the ninjas who can train this kind of 'doll', they can only do it at the root.

"Before he was ordered by his 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 Ibiki , is a very blunt, troublesome brat who 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.

Yibixi is Konoha's interrogation expert. If even he can't be tortured, then it can only be investigated by the Yamanaka Clan's Heart Turning Technique.

However, the brains of ninjas who were born in the 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 with his own power."

When 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 files 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 Ojoujinin."

Tsunade sighed.

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

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

"His secret technique is very special. It is suitable for exploration and assassination. 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. Please pay attention to it." .”

Tsunade reminded.

"yes."

Tianzang firmly grasped the document in his hand, 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 up here.

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

It was a boy of thirteen or fourteen years old, with short black hair, and the color of his skin was that kind of pale, frighteningly white that hadn't seen the sun for a long time.

In contrast, the clothes are mainly black with white on the opposite side, which makes his skin paler.

"This is Sai. From now on, he will be a member of Class Seven."

Tianzang introduced 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."

Tianzang explained for Naruto.

"That's it, if that's the case, then there's nothing I can do. I'm Uzumaki Naruto, hello."

Naruto stepped forward and greeted 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 puzzled.

"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 these words with a flat smile, the air fell into a deathly silence.

"No... no balls?"

Naruto was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted, and suddenly became furious, and smoke came out of 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, there's 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 mean, 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, is that right? I quite like an ugly girl like you who feels good about herself."

Sai thought he had a perfect smile.

"..."

There was silence for three seconds.

"You bastard, tell me clearly? What does ugly girl mean? 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 were throbbing violently.

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

"..."

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

He 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 a special reason, but if you continue like this, I can only ask Hokage-sama to kick you out The seventh class. No matter what, the team's spirit of cooperation must be ranked 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.

Apparently they thought so too, and Saii needed a reasonable explanation.

"Feel sorry."

Sai suddenly bent down and apologized to the three.

Then he straightened up, and under the gaze of the three of them, 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 name of the book, it was called.

"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 very excessive, you will be forgiven."

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

"It's just that it doesn't seem to be the case now. Even if you smile, you will still be targeted."

"Of course, what you said is too much, it's no longer a joke! Besides, it's 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 Sai's body, there are extremely incomplete personality defects, they are so certain 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, and revealed the fact.

"!?"

Naruto and Sakura stared at Sai in disbelief.

"You three, just chat and stop here. It's time to carry out the mission."

Tianzang clapped his palms, signaling for everyone to focus.

Although he was a little 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. 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 'creatures' on the scroll suddenly became three-dimensional, breaking away from the plane of the inner scroll, forming a living ink painting.

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

Before the wild boar that was attacked could make a deep roar, 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 that Sai easily took down a wild boar, Sakura let out an exclamation.

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

However, Saii'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've performed in the past has been much more difficult than this."

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

Walking out of the dark, Sai 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.

There is only the sound of the wind blowing in the forest, and the silence is abnormal.

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

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

Sai turned his head slightly, then turned his face, looked forward, and answered Sakura's question while walking: "Yes, the roots are also affiliated with Anbe, but this is only a nominal affiliation. The real leader of the root activities is the group Hiro-sama, not Hokage."

"Danzo... that person..."

Sakura paused for a while, as if she had some scruples.

"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.

When they returned to the meeting place, Tianzang and Naruto hadn't come back yet, so 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.

The hair was blown, and Sai took out a drawing book slightly larger 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 and 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 yet. 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.

There was disappointment in Sakura's eyes, she could tell that Sai was very wary of people and things outside, as if he didn't want others to find out about his mental journey.

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

Naruto cut his head and turned his head away.

"That's the best way."

Sai also 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."

As the captain, Tianzang 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 descended from the sky, and asked if the other party found the target.

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

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

"This group of guys are too good at running. If you can't determine the range, it's not a way to find it like a headless chicken."

Cai frowned, feeling troubled.

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

Yamazaki's voice dropped.

Cai was about to start a conversation when two figures rushed towards her from a distance.

It was Uchiha Yan, the leader of their team, and Karin Uzumaki, the team member.

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

Before Uchiha Yan could 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. 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 with big eyes.

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

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

"Damn it, I'm not a power bank!"

Xianglin said so, but her body was still very honest and she put her palm on the groove of the flying ninja gear, pouring the chakra in her body into it desperately to recharge it.

After all, as the only air unit in the team, Yamazaki's role 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, which was successfully input into the flying ninja, and the energy displayed on it was full.

"Thank you."

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, it will not affect Yamazaki's usual steps.

"Okay, now let's pay attention to the next action~www.readwn.com~ Judging from the current situation, the target is not in the country of birds, but to another country."

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

"If you're not in this country, it's quite troublesome to find."

Xianglin said with a troubled expression.

The Kingdom of Birds did not deviate too much from the power range of the Kingdom of Ghosts. Therefore, within the territory of this country, the Kingdom of Ghosts has certain forces settled in, which can make it more convenient for the ninjas of the Kingdom 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 there is trouble, you have to 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 you." , let them assist."

Uchiha Yan suggested.

"no problem."

Cai thought about it and nodded in agreement.

Karin and Yamazaki have no objection either.

"Then, act."

After Uchiha finished speaking, he disappeared from the spot with the instant body technique, and headed southeast.

Watching the only Jonin in the team 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, and Xianglin and I will act below. Yamazaki, use the flying ninja and continue to search from the sky. Even if you dig three feet into the ground, you must find the target!"

"yes!"
