So even though Hanzo didn’t say a word along the way, they had spontaneously quickened their pace.

In rainy weather like in the Rain Country, it is difficult to define the length of daytime hours.

After walking for about half a day, the sky was replaced by a dark curtain without anyone noticing. Hanzo, who was walking in the front of the team, stopped for the first time.

He looked up at the sky, and having grown up in the rainy country, he instantly determined that tonight would also be a rare night without rain.

He casually came under a big tree and sat down without saying a word.

Although there were no instructions, the people behind him understood that this meant they should rest on the spot.

Panting slightly, Kagura put Jiraiya down from her back and helped him sit against the tree.

Although Jiraiya had been treated by Tsunade, he was injured twice in a short period of time and had lost a lot of blood, so his body was now extremely weak.

At the beginning, it was indeed Kagura and Orochimaru who helped him walk.

But as Hanzo’s pace quickened, this supported way of walking was indeed unable to keep up.

Finally, Kagura decided to carry Jiraiya on her back.

Looking up and seeing Jiraiya’s apologetic eyes, Kagura smiled slightly and shook her head gently.

Seeing that Hanzo had no intention of lighting a fire, and even though it had stopped raining, it was indeed impossible to light a fire in the damp woods.

Kagura and the other three silently took out dry food from their bodies and started eating.

At this time, the best thing to do is to seize the time to replenish your physical strength.

Watching the actions of the four of them, Hanzo nodded secretly.

He has always admired such smart people.

He finally spoke:

“I will let you go by noon tomorrow at the latest.”

After saying that, he closed his eyes, leaned against the tree and said no more.

After hearing what he said, Shota Nida showed a hint of ferocity on his face, but he didn’t say anything in the end.

As for Kagura and the others, they seemed to have not heard Hanzo’s words and continued to eat the dry food in silence.

As time slowly turned to late night, the dark clouds in the sky that seemed like they would never disperse finally faded away.

The bright moonlight spread across the earth, casting a silver halo on the woods.

At this time, everyone had closed their eyes, breathing evenly and resting against the tree.

Suddenly, Hanzo, who seemed to be sleeping, suddenly opened his eyes.

“Whoosh~”

Just as he opened his eyes, with a slight sound, a black kunai suddenly shot towards his upper body.

“Hey!”

A dull sound of hammering into wood was heard, and Hanzo, who had been sitting there, had disappeared. The kunai was deeply embedded in the tree trunk.

But a “hissing” sound came from the kunai, and I saw that there was a burning explosive talisman tied to the kunai!

“Oh!”

With a loud bang, the kunai exploded violently.

Kagura had already woken up when the kunai hit the tree trunk.

His first reaction was to grab Jiraiya beside him and quickly back away.

Although Orochimaru and Tsunade were a step slower than him, they also rushed out before the explosion occurred.

A huge puff of smoke rose up, even with the Sharingan activated.

But Kagura could only barely see two dark shadows constantly intertwining inside, and the sound of weapons colliding could be heard from time to time.

As the smoke slowly dissipated, everyone was finally able to see the details of the battle.

At this time, Hanzo and a man were in a stalemate with their weapons held against each other, and that man was Danzo who had just left the day before.

In fact, Danzo had followed them early in the morning.

After breaking out that day, before he reached his destination, he received news from Shadow’s ninja pet that the target had escaped.

He was the main planner of this plot, and it was he who took the initiative to propose to Sarutobi Hiruzen to use fishing bait to clear out the spies in the village.

In fact, Shota Nida was not his main target. The companions who helped Shota Nida carry out the theft were the main purpose of his plan.

He is just a Chunin. Since his identity is already known, he won’t be able to cause much trouble under the surveillance of the Anbu.

But the other spies involved behind him are the big fish hiding behind the scenes.

But he didn’t expect that in order to prevent Konoha from catching him, the Sand Village actually hired ninjas from the Rain Country to help him escape.

Although many traitors or spies who escaped from Konoha with Shota Nitta were captured along the way, they were all Chunin or lower characters.

The real organizer behind the scenes did not reveal his identity.

In this way, Shota Nitta’s existence seems more important than imagined.

As long as we catch him and interrogate him with ninjutsu, we will always get some unexpected gains.

So after receiving the news from the Anbu, he immediately stopped advancing and began searching on the spot.

As the leader of an organization like “Root”, Danzo’s tracking technology is naturally top-notch.

What’s more, the weather was nice and the rain, which was most disruptive to our walk, stopped.

So three hours ago, he had already discovered this large team.

Although he was surprised why Kagura and others were among them, it was Hanzo’s presence that caught his attention.

As a ninja who survived the battlefield, he could naturally sense the danger from the young man in front of him.

After a brief thought, he sent a message to the Anbu behind him and followed up alone.

It has to be said that when it comes to tracking and hiding, Danzo is one of the top masters.

After being followed for hours, Hanzo didn’t notice anything at all.

Danzo was also a very patient person. Even when he saw them stop to rest, he still did not take action, but just hid above and watched.

As the night progressed, he finally launched the long-awaited attack.

The two people who were in a stalemate suddenly exerted force and retreated quickly.

Danzo, who was still retreating, suddenly threw out several shurikens, and then formed a seal with one hand, and suddenly the number became overwhelming.

Faced with this dense kunai attack, Hanzo’s response was very simple.

He calmly used the kunai in his hand to knock away the hidden weapons in front of him one by one.

However, a few seconds later, his expression suddenly changed.

I saw those flying shurikens follow an unreasonable trajectory and go around behind him.

Kagura, who was standing not far away, saw the clues with her Sharingan.

All the shurikens thrown by Danzo had an almost unnoticeable thread behind them.

Danzo suddenly pulled his hand back, and streaks of silver light flashed.

The shurikens that were knocked away by Hanzo suddenly flew behind him.

At the critical moment, Hanzo twisted his body to avoid the attack.

But when he came to his senses, he found that he had been tied up by the thin wire and shuriken that looked thin but was actually tough.

“Hissssss~”

The familiar voice came again, and dozens of shuriken tied to his body were suddenly ignited.

Looking closely, I saw that all the shurikens were tied with yellow detonating tags.

“Oh!”

There was an explosion louder than the previous one and a huge fireball exploded where Hanzo was standing.

The explosion created a huge gray fog that instantly filled the entire forest.

Having succeeded in his attack, Danzo didn’t care about the outcome of the battle over there.

He pushed his feet hard and rushed quickly towards Kagura and others.

In front of him was Shota Nitta, who had a look of astonishment on his face.

From the beginning to the end, he had no intention of competing with Hanzo. All his attacks were just to slow down the strong man.

From the very beginning, Danzo’s target was Shota Nida who was standing nearby.

Under Shota Nida’s incredulous gaze, the kunai in Danzo’s hand pierced into his body fiercely.

Chapter 34 Are You Willing to Make a Deal?

Danzo’s eyes narrowed, and Shota Nida’s incredulous face gradually disappeared in front of him, replaced by a piece of wood.

As a veteran spy, Shota Nitta might not be very strong, but when it comes to caution, he is definitely not lacking in it.

As early as when these two started fighting, he knew that these were people from Konoha who came to capture him.

While Kagura was concentrating on the battle ahead, he even secretly used the substitution technique under his Sharingan.

Shaking off the wooden block in his hand with all his strength, Danzo quickly scanned the surroundings with wolf-like eyes.

A black shadow flashed by, it was Shota Nida who was hiding in the darkness.

He rushed towards Kagura and others swiftly. Seeing this, Kagura and others immediately assumed fighting stances.

However, in Kagura’s astonished gaze, Shota Nitta suddenly changed direction when he was about to meet her.

After a moment of hesitation, he immediately understood Shota Nida’s goal, but it was too late.

The figure of Nitta Shota flashed by, and Jiraiya, who was lying next to Kagura, was taken away by him.

When his figure stopped, I saw that Jiraiya had been tightly held in front of him by his right hand.

He stood behind Jiraiya vigilantly, looking at Kagura, Danzo and others.
