Chapter 399 The Chunin Exam, the Sharingan who was targeted!
Among the ninjas that Otonin sent to Konoha to take the Chunin Exam, three ninjas were missing. No one knows where these three ninjas went, and only a small part of Konoha’s Anbu knew. It is directly related to the Fourth Hokage and Uzumaki Jiuming.
However, this kind of thing is not something they can worry about at the grassroots Anbu. After reporting to Namikaze Minato, Anbu's work returned to daily life.
In the next few days, several cases of missing people occurred in Muye Village one after another. The missing people were of different ages, men and women, and all of these people had one thing in common, that is, the missing people They are all researchers from the Konoha Academy of Sciences.
When the first case happened, it didn’t attract many people’s attention. When the Konoha Police Station handled it as a general missing case, but several cases happened in succession, which also made the Konoha Police Station The people in the bureau paid attention.The relevant files were sorted out early in the morning and placed on Uchiha Fugaku's desk.
"Patriarch, all the information about the missing persons in the past few days is here."
"They are all researchers of the Konoha Academy of Sciences, and their positions vary from high to low, without obvious characteristics."
"I suspect that this is the work of spies from other villages!"
In Uchiha Fugaku's office, Fugaku read the files intently while listening to his subordinates' reports.
"How many people are missing?" Uchiha Fugaku looked at the information in his hand and asked.
"So far, a total of 17 people have been missing."
"I personally went to Researcher Konoha to inquire, and the research subjects of these missing people are different."
"Some people specialize in medical ninjutsu, some people study human cells, and even among the missing people, there are people who study crops."
"These researchers cover a wide range of research directions, and there is no commonality, but one thing is that all the missing people are experts in their respective fields!"
On the side, Uchiha Hikoichi, the director of the police station, reported, while speaking, he found the relevant person from the documents on the table and handed them to Fu Yue.Fu Yue nodded slowly after examining it carefully.
"Is it because of this reason that you suspect to be a spy from an enemy country?"
Fu Yue pondered for a long time and asked.
"Yes! I think that such an incident happened this time. It should be that other countries snooped on our Konoha research results, and did such a thing in order to obtain our research results and expand their own scientific research capabilities."
"The missing people have not found any corpses. In my opinion, they should have been taken away."
"This should be a large-scale espionage campaign against our Konoha!"
Uchiha Hikoichi has his own judgment on this large-scale disappearance case, and he directly stated his judgment.Since the Konoha Police Station was established, this is the first time such a vicious incident has occurred, and judging from the investigation during this period.
The murderer didn't leave even a single trace, and even the Uchiha and Hyuga clans in their police station didn't find any useful clues. The enemy's ability to do this is far beyond Uchiha Yanichi's imagination. It is precisely because of this that this case of disappearance will be reported to Fuyue.
"Massive espionage"
"This possibility cannot be ruled out. During this period of time, the flow of people in Konoha is mixed, which is a huge test for the work of our police station."
"Notice that the leave of all police officers will be cancelled, and everyone will return to their jobs."
"From today, everyone will be arranged in three shifts to check everyone without interruption."
"The focus of the investigation is mainly on people who came from other villages during this period."
Fuyue thought for a long time, and gave the order directly.He attaches great importance to this matter, so the decision-making is also a bit radical.
"Patriarch, is this too strict?"
"If everyone is investigated, it is likely to cause panic among the people. Will the impact be too great?"
"I issued a gag order before. At present, this matter has not been spread in the village. Only the relevant personnel of the case know about it. Doesn't everyone know about it?"
Uchiha Hikoichi didn't expect Fugaku's reaction to be so intense, so he asked cautiously.
"It won't cause panic among the masses, you can rest assured about that."
"And just find an excuse for the reason for the investigation, counter-espionage, do you still need me to teach you this kind of thing?"
Fuyue raised his eyes and glanced at Uchihahiko, his tone was a little harsh.After hearing this, the other party responded immediately, and then left the office to start a large-scale investigation.
After his subordinates left, Fu Yue seriously looked through the file on the table again, frowning.There were some things he didn't tell his men.With Uzumaki Jiuming sitting in Muye Village, it is impossible for large-scale espionage to occur, unless these spies can hide from Uzumaki Jiuming's perception and come to the village to do things.
But as far as he Uchiha Fugaku knows, almost no one in the entire ninja world can hide from Uzumaki Jiuming's Kagura heart, even if the other party uses a powerful sealing technique to disguise, it is difficult to deceive Uzumaki Jiuming.Now that something like this happened in the village, Fuyue wouldn't feel that Uzumaki Jiuming didn't know about it.
After all, he had received news some time ago that there was a group of Otonin with strange whereabouts, and they were taken away by Uzumaki Jiuming not long after they entered the village.It is absolutely impossible for an enemy who is malicious to Konoha to make a big move in Konoha, Fu Yue firmly believes in this.After thinking for a long time, Fu Yue put away the relevant files and put them in the bookcase behind him.
Fuyue planned to raise this matter high and lower it lightly. The police station made such a big move, it was nothing more than a statement.As for finding out the truth of the matter, to be honest, Fuyue didn't have any hope. If this matter was as he expected, I'm afraid nothing could be found out.
The large-scale disappearance of researchers from the Academy of Sciences did not cause any waves in Konoha Village. During this time, everyone's eyes were focused on the Five Villages Joint Chunin Exam hosted by Konoha.
A few days later in the morning, the jointly organized Chunin Exam finally ended the written examination.
In the early morning, Uzumaki Jiuming walked out of the house after having breakfast at home, and walked towards Muye Village.The longevity laboratory established some time ago has now slowly entered the right track.
The disappearance of researchers in Muye Village was written by him. Although there is a scientific genius called Orochimaru in the laboratory, there are many people in charge. Uzumaki Jiuming secretly captured a group of researchers and sent them to Orochimaru to assist Oroshemaru in research. , in order to speed up the research and development progress.
I am also very satisfied with the Renda Shewan arranged by Uzumaki Jiuming. For science, only when people communicate with each other can there be collisions and scientific inspirations, right?
"Jiuming, this phase of the Chunin Exam, I'll leave it to you!"
In Hokage's office, Uzumaki Jiuming, who was called by Minato early in the morning, was sitting on the sofa and yawning, looking bored. Behind the desk, Minato looked at Uzumaki Jiuming with a smile on his face. It's not like please.
The Chunin Exam has reached the third stage. The submission list for the first stage and the intelligence collection for the second stage have all come to an end. Next, it is the third stage of the Chunin Exam, which is to cross the death forest.
The so-called dead forest is actually a wild forest on the edge of Muye Village. This dead forest was specially created by Muye Village. During the war, this dead forest was actually a training ground. Some intelligence-gathering exercises are conducted here.
Another name for the Forest of Death is No.40 No. [-] Practice Field!
But this time, the death forest has become a hurdle for the lower ninjas to advance to the middle ninja.There are many ferocious beasts in the death forest, which is also a big test for the ninjas.
Minato asked Uzumaki Jiuming to be the examiner, not to let Jiuming guarantee the safety of the ninjas. He actually received some information from the country of the wind, and wanted Uzumaki Jiuming to monitor those who participated in the assessment. Let these people play tricks.As for the exam itself, Uzumaki Jiuming would not interfere.
"Don't worry, Sand Shinobi won't be so foolish and easily bewitched by others."
"If Sand Ninja dares to plot evil, I will kill the danger in the cradle!"
Uzumaki Jiuming comforted Minato, and then disappeared into the office.
At the same time, at the No. [-] entrance of the Death Forest, the ninjas who passed the first and second stages of the assessment gathered here, listening carefully to Mitarai Anko's explanation of the rules.
In the queue, there was an ordinary-looking Kusanagi who was looking at Uchiha Sasuke intentionally or unintentionally, with a hint of longing in his eyes.
The assessment of the third stage of Death Forest is a team battle, and all ninjas act in teams of three.Each team will be assigned a scroll before setting off into the death forest. Half of the teams get a scroll with "sky" written on it, while the other half of the team gets a scroll with "earth" written on it.
Only the teams that have gathered the two scrolls of "Heaven" and "Earth" and reach the high tower in the middle of the Death Forest within the specified time can be considered qualified and have the opportunity to enter the next round of assessment.
There are a total of more than 30 teams that successfully entered this round, that is to say, there are nearly a hundred people, but only half of the ninjas that can really pass this stage of assessment, or even under certain circumstances, less than half.
This assessment is about team combat, intelligence gathering, and the ability to survive in the wild. After Mitarai Anko announced the rules, everything started to move around.
At this time, Sasuke suddenly noticed that someone was watching him, looked around, and suddenly found the Kusanagi who was staring at him.
This Kusanagi didn't hide his gaze at all, and he didn't care when Sasuke found out, but smiled at Sasuke instead.It's just that there is no kindness in this smile.
"Hey, Sasuke, do you know that guy?" Naruto, who was standing with Sasuke, also noticed Kusanagi's gaze and asked suspiciously.
"I don't know, be careful after entering the death forest, that guy gives me a very bad feeling."
Sasuke shook his head and said in a low voice.
"Naruto, Xianglin, the radius of this practice field is 10KM. After getting the corresponding scroll, go directly to the destination."
"Don't linger in the forest."
For some reason, Sasuke had an ominous premonition in his heart, and told his companion again.This time, it was rare for Naruto to not quarrel with Sasuke, and nodded in agreement.From the beginning, he also felt an ominous premonition. At this moment, the hairs on his back were still standing up.
Then, after everyone signed the certificate of life and death and obtained the scroll of their own team, the assessment of the third phase of the Chunin Exam officially began.
In the tower in the middle of the death forest.
Whirlpool Jiuming was knocking Erlang Tuo sitting in the monitoring room, knocking melon seeds while looking at the display screen in front of him.The world of Naruto is a world with scientific civilization. Surveillance was invented and popularized a few years ago.
There are nearly 300 screens in the monitoring room at this time, corresponding to different monitoring locations in the forest of death, and the screens on the monitors can actually be switched, because there are [-] monitors scattered in the forest. There is simply no way for multiple monitors to display all images at the same time.
"Master, the exam has begun!"
Behind Uzumaki Jiuming, Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Shisui stood on the left and right. Both of their students have entered the third round of assessment. The young man was caught.
At this time, Uchiha Itachi saw the screen flashing on the monitor, pointed to the screen not far away, and said.
That screen corresponds to the monitor monitoring the entrance. At this time, groups of teams are passing through the entrance quickly and entering the death forest.Itachi caught his student and younger brother in the picture, with a faint smile on his face.
"Have you started? I don't know if those kids from class [-] can get to this tower."
Whirlpool Jiuming glanced at the picture, eating melon seeds to himself.
"Huh?" But inadvertently, Uzumaki Jiuming noticed a group of ninjas, or noticed a person in a group of ninjas. seen.
"Hey, go back and have a look!" Wei Weijiu called out, stood up and walked to the monitor, staring at the screen with recognition.And the ninja who was manipulating the monitoring screen immediately backed away and cut the screen when he heard Jiuming.
"Okay, that's it!" Whirlpool Jiuming let out a low voice, making the person stop, and then looked intently at the screen.
After commenting for a long time, Uzumaki's expression turned cold, and he silently opened Kagura's eyes, covering the entire death forest, but in his perception, he didn't catch the familiar Chakra, and he couldn't help but frowned slightly. frown.
"Master, what's the matter? Did you find anything?" Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Itachi looked at each other, and then Itachi asked in confusion.
"Hmph, I didn't look for them, but they came to my door instead!"
"Itachi, Shisui, have you seen this man? Go find him and deal with him, this guy is an enemy!"
"The purpose of coming to the Chunin exam this time is very likely to be Xianglin and Naruto!"
"If you can't figure it out, send a signal!"
Uzumaki Jiuming pointed to the task on the screen and said.Although Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Zhi didn't know who Uzumaki Jiuming was talking about, they heard that the other party was an enemy, and the targets were Karin and Naruto.The two of them knew what was going on between Xiangrin and Naruto, and if the enemy's target was Jinchuriki, then it would be a big deal.
"Yes!" Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Shisui responded, and then left the monitoring room together.
At the same time, the three members of the seventh squad who had been on their way after entering the death forest stopped at the foot of a big tree.
"Xiang Rin, Naruto, we are being followed!"

Whirlpool Jiuming was knocking Erlang Tuo sitting in the monitoring room, knocking melon seeds while looking at the display screen in front of him.The world of Naruto is a world with scientific civilization. Surveillance was invented and popularized a few years ago.
There are nearly 300 screens in the monitoring room at this time, corresponding to different monitoring locations in the forest of death, and the screens on the monitors can actually be switched, because there are [-] monitors scattered in the forest.
