"Immediately check if there are any Ninjas from Rongakure on the list of candidates!"
Accompanied by the heavy voice of Shui Men in the office, a black shadow suddenly flashed from outside the window.
Although Minato didn't remember any Ninjas from Rongakure, this kind of thing still needs to be determined.
However, the possibility is still very small.
Since the other party didn't take the identity information on the corpse, it proves that they didn't want to sneak in with the identity of Rongakure Ninja.
Maybe it's just the effect of some kind of Jutsu, or maybe it's just to interfere with Wood Leaf's investigation.
Maybe it's just to create some negative pressure on Wood Leaf.
But there's no doubt that in the case of unknown enemies, Wood Leaf, as the host of this Chunin Exam, has a great passive position in this matter.
After Minato finished speaking, Shinji also looked up and glanced at him, his voice was very calm.
"Since Hokage-sama has already made arrangements, then I will also take my leave."
Hearing his words, Minato got up slightly and sent Shinji away.
When he saw Shinji was about to leave, he hesitated for a moment and said.
"Shinji san, no matter what happens in the future, we are doing this for the better development of this village."
"So … from now on, I will leave it to you …"
Hearing Minato's words, Shinji's footsteps paused slightly, his head seemed to gently nod, and then he continued to slowly leave.
After Shinji left, Minato stood at the door for a long time, and finally just sighed softly.
At this moment, in the underground of Wood Leaf.
In the depths of the darkness that extended in all directions, there was a very ordinary room.
The dim light of the candles refracted in the room.
"Cough … Cough …"
Accompanied by a hoarse and muddy cough, the candlelight in the room seemed to tremble slightly.
On the main seat of the room, there was an old man in an old white kimono. His body was slightly hunched, and the veins on his skinny hand that was tightly gripping his walking stick could not help but bulge.
The masked ninja kneeling below couldn't help but raise his head with some worry.
"Danzo-sama, do you need to call a medical ninja for you?"
Hearing his words, Danzo waved his thin hand and raised his head.
He stared at him with a muddy eye on his stiff face, and his voice was hoarse like a broken bellows.
"It's okay, go on …"
Hearing his words, the Root ninja hurriedly continued.
"As I said before, the Wood Leaf Guards found out this morning that the faces of the candidates of Rongakure were erased. according to this subordinate's idea, I'm afraid that someone is trying to take the Chunin Exam!"
After listening to these words, Danzo sneered and said in a hoarse voice.
"Erased his face, huh …"
"To Do this kind of thing reminds me of a guy I haven't seen for a long time …"
Hearing Danzo's words, the Root ninja was taken aback and asked in confusion.
"Danzo-sama, Danzo-sama, do you know who did this?"
In this regard, Danzo didn't hide much, his stiff face slightly evoked a sneer, and his voice was low and hoarse.
"To be able to do such a thing, it must be Orochimaru!
Cough … Cough! "
Hearing this, the Root ninja couldn't help but murmur.
"Does Orochi Maru want to take advantage of this exam to take revenge on Wood Leaf!?"
Hearing this, Danzo's eyes flashed with a touch of ridicule, and his old stiff face showed a touch of ridicule, and he said hoarsely.
"A madman who lost his eyes because of a forbidden technique, what kind of threat can such a guy pose to Wood Leaf at this time!?"
In this regard, the Root ninja didn't dare to answer.
After all, the name of the Sannin still has some influence in Wood Leaf Village.
"Cough … Cough … Cough …"
At this time, Danzo coughed heavily a few times, and then slowly said in a hoarse voice.
"Arrange for the Root to be spread in the village."
Speaking of this, Danzo's muddy eyes flashed with a cold light, and he said in a hoarse voice.
"This old man doesn't believe that kid Nawaki. Konoha's police force should have been abolished, but I didn't expect that kid to pick it up again after the Uchiha's disappearance!"
"Cough … Cough … Cough … And … I still can't see through that kid's true thoughts …"
When he said this, he couldn't help but think in his heart.
This old man knows what kind of person that disciple is …
You have followed him for so many years, even if you have been holding back, this old man will never believe that you will really let go of those rebellious thoughts!
After hearing Danzo's words, the Root ninja quickly said in a deep voice.
"Danzo-sama, why don't we take advantage of this opportunity to make a crime against the Wood Leaf Garrison and kick out the position of Thousand-Hand Rope Tree!?"
In this regard, Danzo glanced at him with a sneer, and said in a hoarse voice.
"Do you think Sarutobi and the Fifth Hokage are that stupid?
Forget it, you can leave now, and do as I say! "
"Whether it's Orochi Maru or the conspiracy of those villages, as long as we are here, all their threats are nothing but a joke …"
Hearing Danzo's words, the Root ninja kowtowed heavily, and then disappeared in an instant.
After he left, Danzo couldn't help but gently glance at his bandaged right arm. His eyes flashed with a strange light as he whispered in a hoarse voice.
"A bunch of reckless guys, come on … come on …"
"This old man will make sure that the Wood Leaf Garrison will have an invincible Root in my lifetime, and at that time … Cough …"
When he said this, he bent down again and coughed violently. His skinny hand that covered his mouth and nose overflowed with a touch of bright red.
Looking at the blood on his hand, his eyes couldn't help but become cold, and his heart was cold.
Orochi Maru … he really left a lot of backup plans for this old man …
If it's really you this time, this old man will personally peel off your skin …
.....
At the same time, the various parties in Wood Leaf fell into a state of anxiety and vigilance due to the discovery of the strange examinee's corpse.
Located in the sky above Wood Leaf Village, the Chunin Exam was slowly progressing.
In the azure sky that no one could see, a deep and pitch-black crack slowly split open.
It was as though a ferocious beast hidden in space had opened its mouth. As the strange ripple spread outwards, a couple of figures slowly walked out from the deep darkness.
"I really didn't expect that there would be a day when I would come back …"
At this time, a hoarse and magnetic voice slowly sounded in the sky.
After he spoke, a tall figure in front of him slowly turned her head.
The corners of that angular face curled up slightly, revealing a gentle smile. His deep eyes gently glanced at the person who spoke, and his voice was gentle as he spoke.
"Returning to your hometown with a new attitude, is your mood complicated, Orochi Maru?"
Hearing his words, a pale-skinned man with long, narrow eyes and purple eyeshadow glanced at him and laughed in a hoarse voice.
"Wanting to kill someone, does that count, Aizen?"
