In the woods, there was the sound of metal clashing.

After the kunai and kunai came into contact, both sides quickly retreated, and then invariably regained their strength and rushed towards their opponents.

Looking at Sakura-chan who was rushing towards him from the front, Tenzo held Kunai's hand and suddenly made a lot of effort, and the kunai in his hand instantly detached from his palm and flew towards Sakura's face.

Sakura's face remained unchanged and she raised her arm, and with the kunai in her hand, she flicked away the kunai that Tianzo had thrown over, causing the kunai to fall to the ground.

The moment Sakura blocked the kunai, Tenzo's hands quickly sealed, concentrating the chakra in his body.

"Soil Escape, Earth Flow Cutting!"

Syllable!

With a slap of his palm on the ground, before Sakura could rush in front of her, the ground in front of her suddenly bulged and quickly sliced through the middle, leaving Sakura's feet empty, disrupting her offensive steps.

Sure enough, Sakura, who lost her balance, suddenly fell towards the cracked ground, so she had to wave her arm and stab kunai into the dirt and rocks beside her in order to stabilize her body.

Seeing this scene, Tianzang didn't plan to let it go.

But in terms of Sakura's reflexes, this level is barely strong.

At least better than the information he had gotten before.

It is probably related to the factors that followed the cultivation behind Tsunade during this time.

But that's not enough.

"Water Escape, Water Wave Hand!"

Without hesitation, Tenzo sealed his hands again, and released the next ninjutsu calmly.

The palm of the hand spread out, and a strong current of water instantly emerged, rushing towards Sakura's body, intending to sweep her into the violent torrent.

"Spiral Pill!"

As a figure flashed in front of Sakura, she pushed the chakra ball in her hand out.

The powerful torrent that was enough to wash away more than a dozen people was suddenly stopped by the force of the spiral, turned into scattered water droplets, and disappeared in the air.

When Tenzo saw this, his face remained as usual, and then his eyes squinted.

I don't know when, I have fallen into the encirclement.

There were more than a dozen shadow clones of Naruto around, and they implemented siege tactics on themselves and swarmed up.

So far, the actions of the two have been expected by Tenzo, and their abilities and tactical configurations are exactly the same as those described in the intelligence.

However, it is exactly the same as described in the intelligence, and it does not mean that it is easy to deal with.

In a short handover with the shadow clones, Tianzang's face couldn't help but sink, and his eyes directly revealed a serious look.

Although the ninjutsu and tactical configuration are no different from the intelligence, the shadow clone's experience in fighting the enemy has become the key to reversing the occupancy.

The shadow clone that should have been just used as cannon fodder, intelligence gathering, and attracting the attention of the enemy, the use of physical skills is quite good, and the posture of empty-handed combat has also become a certain order.

Three or five may not feel the pressure yet, but a dozen or so together, Tenzo also feels a little pressure.

It seems that this kid has been following Jiraiya-sama for a few months, and he is not wasting time! Tenzo sighed in his heart.

In this way, he also had to show his strength as a ninja.

Sakura is secondary, but if Naruto disperses more shadow clones, it will undoubtedly make this battle tricky.

Young people nowadays are terrible.

"Tu Dun, Tuliu City Wall!"

Breaking free from the entanglement of the shadow clones, Tenzo retreated to the rear, opening up a safe enough distance from the shadow clones.

Then, slap your hands on the ground.

Bang!

Bang!

Just as the shadow clones were about to rush forward, the ground suddenly shook violently.

"Wow, what's going on?"

Naruto, who was standing with Sakura, looked around nervously.

I saw that the sand and gravel on the surrounding ground continued to shake, and with the sound of clicking, cracks appeared in the ground in front of me, and a whole piece of earth rose high, forming a huge cliff.

"It's ......"

Looking at the huge castle wall created by Tenzo, both Naruto and Sakura opened their mouths wide.

"Water Escape: Waterfall Technique!"

First, a small wave of spray poured down from the top of the mountain, followed by a rolling torrent that smashed the rocks along the way and sloped down from the sky, creating a large shadow that swallowed Sakura-chan and Naruto, as well as the shadow clones.

"Be careful!"

The attack range of the water flow is so wide that a simple spiral pill can no longer make a gap in it.

However, even if Naruto and Sakura retreated backwards, they still couldn't speed up the speed of the water pouring down from the sky, and in the blink of an eye, they swept the two of them and their shadow clones into the torrent and rushed into the distance.

The surrounding trees were also shivering under the rush of the torrent.

One by one, the shadow clones disappeared under the impact of the water, and Naruto was directly poured a large mouthful of water because he couldn't dodge.

He poked his head out from under the water, his hair was wet, his mouth was wide open, he was constantly touching the air outside, and he was coughing violently.

"It's over."

The sudden sound from behind made Naruto's body stiffen.

Bang!

A kick that kicked Naruto out of the water, sending his body tumbling on the surface of the water.

However, after tumbling for a distance of about ten meters, Naruto's body exploded directly, turning into a cloud of smoke and dissipating.

It's a shadow clone.

"Got it!"

Two Narutos, one on the left and one on the right, behind Tenzo, swung their fists and smashed down on Tenzo's back.

Tenzo didn't look back, and he saw the calculation clearly from the beginning.

Using a shadow clone to confuse someone's line of sight and then look for a flaw in the enemy's sneak attack was Naruto's forte, and there was no reason why he wouldn't think about it.

Just as the fists of the two Narutos were about to hit, vines like trees suddenly appeared behind Tenzo, wrapping around the bodies of the two Narutos like snakes, and their hands and feet were firmly bound, making him unable to move.

"Damn, what is this!? Wood? ”

As if not expecting such a thing to happen, Naruto desperately tugged at the wooden rattans wrapped around his body, trying to rip them off.

But as his movements became more and more intense, instead of being pulled and broken, these wooden rattans became tighter and tighter under Naruto's pulling, making Naruto's face turn purple.

The other Naruto, on the other hand, couldn't withstand the pressure and disappeared directly into smoke.

On the side, Sakura, who had just surfaced from the water and was coughing, raised her head and looked at Tenzo's method of restraining Naruto with a shocked face, revealing a look of disbelief.

"It's ...... Mu Dun? Why ......"

Sakura couldn't believe what was happening in front of her.

As far as she knew, Mu Dun Ninjutsu had long since disappeared in Konoha Village.

The last ninja who could use the wooden escape was the legendary first Hokage.

Since the death of the first Hokage, there have been no more ninjas in the ninja world.

However, what's going on with the ninjutsu in front of you?

No matter how you look at it, this is all Mu Dun Ninjutsu.

Is it an illusion?

However, there is no need for illusions to deliberately present the illusion of Mu Dun.

Ignoring Sakura, who was shocked and couldn't talk to herself, Tenzo let go of his palm and lifted the ninjutsu, untying Naruto's shackles and letting him fall from mid-air.

Just as Naruto was about to continue the attack, Tenzo turned around and stretched out his palm to stop the gesture prohibiting the battle: "Okay, that's the end of the drill battle, I probably know your current level." ”

In the battle just now, he didn't show too much mercy to his subordinates, at least he used some real skills.

Needless to say, Naruto's strength has reached the level of the middle ninja, and judging from the opponent's past combat performance, this is not his limit.

Because once his physical technique becomes a chapter method, then the upper limit of his strength brought by his shadow clone technique will become very terrifying.

Therefore, he couldn't look at Naruto's strength with normal eyes.

The lower limit is the bottom of the forbearance, and the upper limit is unknown.

And Sakura's level is easy to see through.

In terms of strength alone, it has not yet reached the standard level of middle ninja, and can only occupy a place in the lower ninja, but considering the role of the other party's medical ninja in the team, it is far more than the contribution brought by a middle ninja. The value of medical ninjas, just by looking at the previous ninja wars, you can know one or two, is an absolutely valuable resource.

Overall, through the simple test just now, he was very satisfied with the level of the two, and it was enough to test to this point.

If the rest of the things continue to be tested, it is likely that there will be no way to contain them, and they can only be tested by real actual combat.

"Is this the end of it? B-level missions are too easy, isn't it? ”

Naruto was stunned for a moment, but he stopped and did not continue to attack Tenzo.

However, in his opinion, this B-level mission is too simple, and it is even less difficult than the exercise battle when the seventh class was not established a year ago.

At least that time, none of the three of them were able to get a favor from Kakashi, and it could even be said that the end was very miserable.

Knowing Naruto's thoughts, Tenzo smiled and replied, "Of course, because compared to the past when you first became a shinobi, your strength has grown very significantly after a year of actual combat. Especially you, Naruto, give you a little more time, maybe even I won't be your match. ”

This is no joke.

In his opinion, Naruto's growth rate was unusual.

At best, he only has one year to graduate, and if he is given another year or even two years, if he is not careful, he may also be at risk of overturning.

Moreover, B-Class missions are not strictly difficult.

Under Ninja, they are both C-rank and D-rank missions.

The B-rank mission, on the other hand, is to fight ninjas. And the ninja level, even if it is a lower ninja encountered in the process, will be recognized as a B-level mission.

The real difficult tasks are to start with A and S-rank, and they are basically directly confronted with ninjas with the strength of the ninja.

"Is that so?"

Naruto grinned and began to scratch his head, as if he was a little embarrassed to be praised like this by Kamishinobi.

"Naruto, I'm not joking, I'm saying this seriously...... It seems that the shadow clone method training method taught to you by Kakashi's predecessors is indeed outstanding, allowing you to develop your potential to the fullest. ”

Tenzo is very aware of how poor Naruto's foundation was in the past, and physical art is a field of water milling, and without a cheat like Sharingan, it is difficult to learn from others to achieve it quickly.

And Naruto, who has only studied physical techniques behind Jiraiya for two or three months these days, already has quite a certain discipline...... This kind of rapid and steady growth makes Tianzang not know what to say.

Kakashi...... Predecessor? ”

When Tenzo said this, both Naruto and Sakura were stunned, and their eyes looked at Tenzo in unison.

Tenzo smiled helplessly.

"As you can imagine, I'm from the Shadows, and my immediate boss in the Shadows in the past is Kakashi Hachiki."

His current position in the dark department is at the level of deputy minister, and he also holds the position of part-time detachment leader.

As for the position of the minister, it has not yet been decided.

On the one hand, it is because there is no suitable candidate yet, and on the other hand, there are other forces that obstruct it.

"That's ......"

It can be seen that when Kakashi is mentioned, the expressions of both of them are very lonely, and their shoulders shrug down weakly.

Tenzo didn't break it either, knowing Kakashi's status in the minds of the two, which can be seen from the fact that they only call themselves 'Captain Yamato', not 'Yamato-sensei'.

In their minds, the teacher of Class 7 may be Kakashi alone.

For Kakashi's betrayal, Tenzo also felt puzzled and regretful.

But he is an adult and does not indulge in boring feelings.

In so many years of living in the shadows, he is used to loss and betrayal, and his heart has long been honed with tenacity.

"So, Captain Yamato, do you know Kakashi-sensei, why did he kill three generations of grandfathers, and why did he betray the village? I went to ask Tsunade's mother-in-law, and she wouldn't tell me anything. Later, I went and asked the fairy to do the same. ”

At this time, Naruto raised his head and looked at Tenzo with a determined look.

Since the other party is Kakashi's subordinate, he must know a lot about Kakashi.

After hearing Naruto's inquiry, Sakura was stunned, and then looked at Tenzo as well, with a look of longing in her eyes.

Obviously, she also wanted to know the reason why Kakashi betrayed Konoha on the charge of assassinating the Hokage.

She didn't believe that the man who had the impression of being a little lazy, but who always cared about the safety of the students, would be a cold-blooded betrayer.

Looking at the expectation in the eyes of the two, Tianzang was a little embarrassed.

If this matter is not handled properly, will there be some estrangement in the team?

What a headache. Tianzang sighed helplessly.

"In that case, let's talk to you briefly. However, this kind of thing should never be said to outsiders, because it involves some privacy in the past. ”

"Don't worry, we won't talk nonsense. Hurry up and tell us the truth, Captain Yamato. ”

Naruto patted his chest and assured.

Tenzo nodded, and after a pause, he spoke, "Before talking about this, do you know Kakashi's father?" ”

Naruto was stunned, but Sakura thought of something and replied, "I know something, I heard that Kakashi-sensei's father is also an amazing Konoha ninja, and it seems that he is called Konoha White Fang. However, it is said that the white fang passed away a long time ago. ”

"Do you know the reason for his death?"

Naruto and Sakura shook their heads blankly.

Tianzang exhaled deeply, and it was obvious that the next content also made him feel pressured.

However, if they continue to struggle, the truth of this part will be investigated sooner or later.

It would be a good thing if they could solve their doubts through this incident.

"Kakashi's predecessor's father is called Hachiki Sakumo, more than twenty years ago, he was an incomparably shining star in Konoha, and in terms of prestige, he was not weaker than the three shinobi at that time, and White Fang was the title he received to deter enemies. Kakashi's predecessor's sword skills were passed down from White Fang. ”

"So how did such a ninja die? It's on the battlefield ......"

"No, White Fang...... Hashiki Sakushige died by suicide. ”

Suicide!

When Naruto and Sakura heard this, they both held their breath and stared at Tenzo with wide eyes.

"Because he was on a major mission, in order to save his seriously injured teammates, he gave up the mission in the middle of the mission. After returning, he was blamed by many people, and even his teammates who were rescued by him accused him of his fault, believing that he should not have chosen to abandon the mission for the sake of his companions and let the village suffer losses. In the midst of such torrents of gossip, he chose to end himself. ”

As Tenzo recounted this past in a heavy tone, Naruto and Sakura also looked solemn.

I didn't expect a hero who fought for the sake of the village to end his life in such a way.

"So, this matter is ...... with three generations of grandfathers"

"Probably Kakashi-senpai, thinking it's a deliberate result of three generations of adults. After all, the more confidential the mission, the more impossible it is to disseminate it to the outside world, let alone let ordinary villagers know about it. There is no other reason than someone deliberately taking advantage of this to erase the reputation of White Fang. ”

Serving in the Shadows, Tenzo knows this very well.

It is impossible to disclose a single bit of a major confidential task to the outside world.

Success or failure means that this part of the secret will be sealed forever or written off from the village archives.

Without the tacit consent of the shadows, such news would not have been able to spread to the outside world.

"Of course, this is just speculation, after all, White Fang committed suicide, it was twenty years ago, and no one knows what happened. There are also many people who believe that it was made by Danzo. ”

Tenzo said.

"Tuanzang?"

In Naruto and Sakura's minds, a gloomy and terrifying old man's face suddenly appeared, and they shivered.

"That's right, it's him. He is the dark side of Konoha and many people see him as the darkness on the back side of the sun, assassination, and spreading rumors are his forte. At the time, he did have that motivation and the ability to do that. ”

Tenzo knew that it was impossible to completely wash away the stains on the three generations of Hokage, but at least he could let Danzou help share some of it.

After all, Tuan Zang was really involved in that incident, and he was the specific implementer.

As the Hokage, the three generations of Hokage will not do this kind of thing himself, and will only be done by the roots.

"I heard that Elder Danzo is now in prison because he is suspected of attacking the Hokage, trying to control the three generations of adults and conspiring to seize the position of the Hokage, is this true?"

Sakura asked.

"Yes, Tuan Zang has been strictly guarded in the heavy torture room, and he can only retire in a cell for the rest of his life."

Tenzo nodded.

This is true in terms of procedural rules, but that Elder Danzang, in Konoha, has the power to break the rules.

It's just that there is no need to be frank about these things to Naruto and Sakura, just reveal a little information.

"Okay, now that things are more or less understood, the new seventh class will be formed again. Before the last team member arrives, let's hone the team's coordination with D-rank and C-rank missions. ”

Tenzo's words diverted Naruto and Sakura's attention, allowing them to recover from their silence and embark on their long-awaited mission career.

◎

Looking at Onoki who drifted into the room through the side door, Tsunade's expression instantly froze in the air, and he didn't react at all, and was shocked why he was able to meet the three generations of Tokage of Iwakure Village in such a place.

This is the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Fire, not the Daimyo Mansion of the Land Country.

Could it be that he got lost, accidentally got out of the land of fire, arrived in the land of earth, and then got lost again and went to the mansion of the daimyo of the land of earth?

That's weird!

Tsunade quickly recovered from the shock.

But this shock was not over, and then from behind Tsuchikage Onoki, two figures came out again.

The four generations of Wind Shadow Luo Sha in Shayin Village.

And...... The fourth generation of Mizukage wolfberry Yakura in Wuyin Village.

"Tsuchikage, you're in the way."

Luo Sha's unceremonious voice sounded, and he withdrew from Onoki and walked forward quickly.

"Hmph, I really don't know how to respect the old and love the young."

Squinted at Luo Sha, known as the old treacherous and cunning, with the titles of old slippery head, two-day scales, etc., Tsuchikage Onoki, quickly floated towards the house, making way for the people behind.

"Isn't that great, after all, Lord Tsuchikage, you're at the age when it's time to retire. It's better to hurry up and decide on the candidate for the four generations of Tsuchikage, but you're the only one left with the five shadows of the old era. ”

Yakura, who walked into the room side by side with Rasha, also chuckled, as if he was teasing Ohnoki's age.

Onoki glanced at Yakura sharply, with a fierce taste.

As long as it involves age, for him, it is a difficult question that pierces his heart.

After all, anyone can see that there is no successor in Yanyin Village now.

The heavy responsibility of the Tsuchikage can only make him, an old man who is dying and old, from the Warring States period to the current era, work hard to support.

The Five Shadows that spanned the Warring States Period and the era of one country and one village are the only ones alive in the world today.

Compared to his generation, even the third generation Hokage of Konoha who passed away not long ago is a little worse.

"Instead of worrying about the bones of an old man like me, Lord Mizukage, it's better to worry about your own domestic problems. I've heard that the water country hasn't been at peace lately. Hopefully, there won't be another scourge similar to the Blood Mist Rebellion. ”

Onoki's ironic words made Yakura not laugh.

"The affairs of the Land of Water, don't worry about Your Excellency Tsuchikage." Yakura then looked at Tsunade and smiled rather friendly, "First meeting, Hokage, please advise me in the future." ”

In the past, although he had heard of the name of one of the three ninjas of Tsunade and knew about her reputation as a medical saint, he had never had the opportunity to know her.

So, strictly speaking, this was the first time he and Tsunade had officially met.

After Yakura's greeting, Raksha also nodded to Tsunade, which was regarded as a greeting.

"Not only the old man Onoki who is known as the two-day scale, but even the two Honorable Lords Kazekage and Mizukage have quietly come to the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Fire...... Why, the last of the Five Shadows, didn't His Excellency Thunder Shadow arrive? ”

Tsunade's eyes narrowed, trying to suppress the shock in his heart, making his expression look calm.

But in fact, the heart has already turned up earth-shattering waves.

With her, this small room has gathered four of the five shadows.

What does the Fire Nation Daimyo want to do?

What is the need to invite the Five Shadows of other countries to come here to discuss important matters?

Turning his head to look at Lu Jiu, he found that his expression was always calm, and it was clear that all this was expected by him.

Tsunade's heart sank.

It seems that the so-called important military aircraft matter to be discussed this time is much more serious than I imagined, and the scope of the impact is far more than just related to the country of fire.

"That irascible boy of Thunder Shadow was probably frightened by the country of ghosts, after all, he was suppressed by that white-eyed little girl on the battlefield in the past."

Onoki sneered.

Regarding Onoki's evaluation, Raksha and Yakura just shrugged their shoulders, the Thunder Shadow has not arrived, there may be an element of fear, but it is definitely not because of fear of the strength of the Oni Country.

Over the years, due to the unsparing support of the Daimyo of the Land of Thunder, the military development of the Land of Thunder has been extremely rapid, and the number of ninjas in Yunyin Village has increased every year. In addition, the oppression of the small country ninja village is also more demanding, and countless secret techniques have been searched to strengthen the ninja power of Yunyin Village. If a few years ago, Yunyin Village was only the nominal head of the ninja village, then the current Yunyin Village definitely has a strong strength that surpasses the rest of the ninja villages!

Oni no Kuni...... Hearing Onoki mention this, the ominous premonition in Tsunade's heart became stronger and stronger, so much so that the pretended calm expression on his face began to be unable to maintain.

Summoned four of the Five Shadows to discuss the matter in secret, and the words also involved the country of ghosts...... No matter how you look at it, it's a conspiracy to act against the country of ghosts.

And it involves several big countries!

As if seeing that Tsunade's expression was wrong, Lu Jiu stepped forward slightly and whispered softly in Tsunade's ear:

"Please calm down, Hokage-sama. On this matter, the three generations of adults and advisors are all strongly in favor. Even Jiraiya-sama, who only learned about this from his advisor not long ago, also agreed with this, but Jiraiya-sama only said that he was in favor of destroying the evil ...... of the demon country."

Lu Jiu's words seemed to pour cold water on Tsunade's heart.

Teacher Ape Fei, Zilai is also ...... Tsunade took a deep breath, his lips slightly bitter.

These two bastards really have a problem for her!

And she didn't know about it until she didn't say hello at all, and she couldn't help but burn boundless anger in her heart, and her head was so chaotic that she almost ran out of control, blank.

Seeing the other three Five Shadows sitting down, the Daimyo of the Fire Country, who was sitting in the first place, stood up from his seat with a smile on his face.

"Then, let's let a few films discuss the next thing and talk freely. The game over there hasn't been played yet, so I'll miss it first. ”

With that, the Daimyo of the Fire Nation left his seat with a satisfied smile and went out through the side door.
