After observing for a while, he asked:

“What’s your name?”

In response to Hanzo’s question, Kagura showed no expression on her face, but still responded:

“Uchiha Kagura.”

“Uchiha Kagura? …

I have never seen the lightning technique you just used. Is it a ninjutsu you created yourself?”

Hanzo, who had already confirmed the Kagura clan through the Sharingan, was not surprised by his name. Instead, he mentioned the ninjutsu that interested him.

Chidori (also known as Raikiri) is a ninjutsu created by Kakashi. Kakashi is not born yet, so this ninjutsu has naturally never appeared.

After thinking for a few seconds, Kagura nodded.

Although I didn’t create it myself, it’s mine since it was given to me by the system, so it’s not too much to acknowledge the right of invention.

Seeing Kagura’s response, Hanzo’s eyes flashed with appreciation, and he continued:

“The Uchiha clan is indeed an enviable clan.

Every generation has its share of surprising talent.”

He added some more firewood to the fire in front of him, then looked up at the crowd and continued:

“Don’t worry, I don’t intend to kill you.

But you need to stay with me for the next two days, and as long as I bring this person to the target location, I will let you go.

Now everyone outside is your people. If we let you go now, you will tip off the others and attract people from Konoha.

I’d have a headache.”

Sure enough, Kagura showed a look of understanding on her face.

Hanzo’s thoughts were the same as he had deduced.

But after hearing what Hanzo said, Shota Nida’s face turned ugly.

He looked at Hanzo with a fearful look and said:

“Why not just kill them, wouldn’t that be more convenient?

If you feel that the mission reward is too little and does not include these, I can add more in my personal name.”

However, facing Nida Shouta’s request, Hanzo didn’t even glance at him, and continued to stir the fire in front of him and said:

“I am just a person who carries out the mission. If you have any objections to the content of the mission, go to the Hidden Rain Village to discuss it with someone.

Now, I am only responsible for sending you to the designated location safely.”

Faced with Hanzo’s merciless words, although Shota Nida’s facial muscles twitched slightly, he still forced himself to calm down.

As he walked along, he was well aware of the strength of the man in front of him.

In his opinion, even the powerful Anbu could not withstand a single move from him, let alone his own strength which was only that of a Chunin, so there was no need to compare with him.

Tsunade was treating Jiraiya while keeping an eye on the situation here.

The unfortunate Jiraiya, whose wounds had begun to heal, was injured again by Hanzo’s attack and began to bleed again.

Fortunately, Tsunade had experience once before and was able to stop the bleeding easily this time. She was using healing techniques to speed up the healing of the wound.

When she heard Hanzo’s words, her nervous heart relaxed.

There was no way. After the brief battle just now, she already knew that Hanzo was not on the same level as them.

Even Kagura, who is normally the most powerful, couldn’t last more than a single round in his hands.

At this time, they did not have such a strong sense of ninja responsibility. For them, how to survive was the first factor.

When she heard Hanzo’s rebuttal to Nida Shouta’s words, she finally couldn’t help but laugh.

In the tightly closed cave, her laughter seemed so abrupt, echoing throughout the entire space.

Nida Shouta, who was already unhappy, heard the laughter and his anger surged again. He glared at the person and said viciously:

“Humph!

With just a few of you Genin, I can handle it myself even if Hanzo refuses to help.”

As he said this, he pretended to stand up, as if he really intended to do it himself.

At this time, Kagura, who had closed her eyes, opened them again, and the Sharingan in her eyes slowly rotated.

A cold gaze swept over, and Nida Shouta felt his whole body go cold. He looked at Kagura vigilantly.

Kagura had no favorable impression of the man in front of him. He said coldly:

“If Hanzo wasn’t here, you’d be useless.

It has already returned to the village with us under my control.”

Hearing Kagura’s contemptuous words, Nida Shouta became furious and was about to say something.

At this time, Hanzo finally looked at him with an idiotic look and interrupted:

“Sit down!

You can’t even judge your opponent’s strength?

Don’t be unconvinced, that kid is telling the truth.”

Upon hearing Hanzo’s words, Nida Shouta’s expression froze.

If it was just that little brat, he would have just thought of it as a provocation from the boy.

But if it was Hanzo who said it, he would believe the other party’s judgment.

He sat down again angrily. He seemed to have thought of something and said to Kagura with an unhappy look on his face:

“What do you, a little brat, know?

As Genin, you are nothing more than tools in the hands of those people in Konoha.

The so-called mission you carried out this time was nothing but a lie.”

Kagura frowned when she heard what Nida Shouta said.

But before he could say anything, Tsunade at the side asked first:

“What do you mean?”

He looked up at the four little ghosts in front of him, and seeing the doubts in their eyes, Nida Shouta smiled again and said:

“What do I mean?

I mean you were all deceived by that Hokage and Danzo.

The order you received should be that I stole the forbidden book, so you have to come out and arrest me, right?

Yes, I did steal, but what I stole was not a forbidden book at all.”

At this point, he seemed to have thought of something, and continued with gritted teeth:

“That’s a bait!

It was a bait set by your top brass to lure out the spies hiding in Konoha Village.

They tuned us out this way and then cleaned us out quickly.

All of this is just a plan by the new Hokage to clean up the internal situation.”

After hearing Shota Nitta’s explanation, Kagura felt that all the confusion of the past few days was resolved.

Why could a forbidden book, considered a treasure, be stolen so easily by spies?

Why were the higher-ups able to react so quickly right after the incident happened, and even sent out all the jonin to block the retreat at the first opportunity?

Why hasn’t the system even issued any tasks to itself until now?

Because the specific content of this A-level mission is: arrest Shota Nida and retrieve the forbidden book from him.

Since he doesn’t have the forbidden book in his hand, this task is naturally not a real A-level task.

This is why the system did not release the tasks together this time.

However, although she was a little surprised, Kagura did not think there was anything wrong with what the Konoha high-level officials did this time.

Isn’t it normal to find out the spies in the village and clean up the internal environment?

The only surprise was probably that Sarutobi Hiruzen did not expect that Kagura and others would encounter an enemy like Hanzo on the outskirts.

After Tsunade and the others heard what Shota Nitta said, they looked at each other and showed expressions of “I see.”

At this moment, Hanzo waved his hand forward, extinguished the fire in front of him, and stood up.

After looking around, he said to everyone:

“Okay, time to move on.

Dear little devils from Konoha, please follow me for a while.”

Chapter 33 Hanzo vs. Danzo

Faced with Hanzo’s “invitation”, it was obvious that Kagura and the others had no right to refuse.

Without saying anything, everyone followed the two out of the cave in silence.

Jiraiya, who was still seriously injured, could only move forward with the help of Orochimaru and Kagura.

The rain, which seemed like it would never stop, gradually became lighter and finally stopped.

Although the sun was still not visible and the sky was still covered with dark clouds, the long-awaited rainless weather still made Kagura feel a little better.

Hanzo naturally didn’t pay special attention to Jiraiya’s footsteps. He still maintained his own pace and walked towards an unknown location.

Kagura and others who were at the end of the team were consciously trying to keep up.

Although Hanzo did not urge them, nor did he look back at them.

But Kagura and the others knew very well that if they used the excuse of Jiraiya’s injury to fall behind.

I’m afraid that this seemingly friendly enemy will chop Jiraiya’s head with his butcher knife in the next second.
