Chapter 144 The Faith of Protection

Bing Huo Jianshanzhong apologized, nodded in approval, and said.

"Feng, remember from now on, Lord Kakugi is a ninja who has made great contributions to the village. There is no way he can do what you said!"

"Yes! Remember this!" Shanzhong nodded with sincerity, stepped back and looked at Bing Huo with admiration.

Binghuo took a step closer to Kakumu, bowed slightly, and said expressionlessly: "The misunderstanding is resolved, let's go first, Lord Kakumu."

Kakumu looked at Binghuo noncommittally, feeling that he had something left to say.

Sure enough, Bing Huo's next words came one after another.

"But please, Mr. Kakugi, we are a team trained by ANBU. We should not say anything that could easily cause misunderstandings in the future."

Bing Huo said with a smile.

These words sounded sincere, but in reality his smile was stiff and even emotionless.

Kakugi said coldly: "Huh, ANBU training team? I know you guys, Captain Binghuo, are you a little too concerned?"

Bing Huo smiled harmlessly, but his smile was still stiff and artificial.

"Anbu training is always like this. Goodbye, Kadouki-sama."

After saying that, he waved to his team members and turned to leave.

Shan Feng looked at Bing Huo with even more admiration and followed the captain closely.

Moonlight Hayate and Morino Hiki looked at Kakugi, nodded slightly, and were about to leave together.

Kakugi stepped forward quickly, hugged Hayate and Ibiki, and spoke softly.

"Be careful, don't die!"

Hearing these familiar words, Ibiki nodded imperceptibly.

Kazuoki wanted to say something again, but finally shook his head, hugged the two of them tightly, and said with a smile.

"Okay, I wish you success in your mission!"

Watching Hayate and Ibiki leave with the team, Kakugi couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Binghuo must be from the root, there is no doubt about it. Now Binghuo is also cultivating the team members towards their roots.

Looking at the wind in the mountain, I have already deeply recognized the concept of the roots.

Just now, Kazuoki wanted to persuade Hayate and Ibiki to leave this team, but he couldn't say anything.

They have to walk their own path, so what right does Kakugi have to help them make decisions?

Whether it's Anko, Hayate and Ibiki, they all have the right to choose.

Just looking at the looks of Hayate and Ibiki, they should still be far from the root requirements.

Maybe, they themselves were brushed down by the roots?

Kakugi comforted himself with a wry smile.

In the end, Kadomu could only remind them not to die.

I don't know why, but Kadomu always feels a little uncomfortable.

Returning to the barracks, he fell into a deep sleep.

......

Time passed quietly like this for more than half a month.

After Anko returned to the village, she immediately sent a letter to Kakugi to report that she was safe.

Kadougi read it dumbfounded, and it happened to be his day off, so he wrote back a letter to Anko.

Although Anko stays by Orochimaru's side, Orochimaru still treats Anko well in the original work. At least before Orochimaru decides to defect, there is no need to worry about Anko.

Kazuoki was slightly worried about Hayate Gekko and Hiki Morino.

More than half a month has passed and they still haven't come back.

With this time, we can almost reach Iwagakure Village.

Could it be that he really went to assassinate the Tsuchikage?

Kadomu thought dumbfounded, and decided to go to Minato's place to have a look.

Without requiring Minato to tell him mission information that should be kept secret, it's okay to care about the safety of his classmates, right?

After Kazuoki explained his purpose to Minato, Minato did not tell him the specific mission information of the Binghuo Team.

However, Minato still comforted him: "Don't worry, Kakugi-san. Depending on the time, they should be back soon."

Kadomu had no choice but to relax temporarily.

It wasn't until a few days later, when Kakugi went to report the mission to Minato, that he learned about them from Minato.

"The mission failed? Are Hayate and Ibiki okay?"

"They are fine." Minato shrugged and said, "Bing Huo came to submit the mission report yesterday, and then angrily led the team back to the village."

"Returned to the village?" Kazuoki said in disbelief with his eyes widened.

When did it become so easy to return to the village?

Minato sighed helplessly: "The Binghuo team is an ANBU training team. Binghuo said he wants to go back and reorganize the team, so I can't stop him."

Kakugi discovered a key word keenly.

"Reorganization? Why?"

Minato smiled helplessly and said: "There is a conflict of ideas. According to Bing Huo, the reason why this mission failed was because Moonlight Hayate was injured at the critical moment, and Morino Ihiki insisted on rescue, which delayed the fighter jet."

"I estimate that after returning to the village, Morino Ihiki and Moonlight Hayate may be kicked out of the team."

Kakugi was stunned. It seems that Hayate and Ibiki still failed to agree with the concept of the root.

At the critical moment, the belief in protecting his companions still prevailed.

fair enough.

Not everyone can accept the idea of ​​root, not even Kakugi himself.

Moonlight Hayate and Morino Hiki may be able to grow better if they switch teams.

----

At this time, in Konoha Village, there are roots underground.

It's still the dark corridor and the dark secret room.

Danzo was sitting in a chair, reading a document. In front of him were his right and left hands: Aburame Ryoma and Orochimaru.

"Are you all here?" Danzo said calmly, looking away from the document.

Looking at the two people in front of him, Danzo said slowly: "This time Iwagakure raided the Grass Country camp, we suffered a lot."

"Not only was the ninja army's combat power lost on the surface, our intelligence system in Earth Country was destroyed, and the nails buried in Iwagakure Village were basically removed."

"The re-establishment of the intelligence system is urgent."

Aburame Ryoma bowed slightly, took a step forward and said, "Danzo-sama, leave this matter to me! I will definitely re-establish the intelligence system of Iwagakure Village!"

Danzo looked at Aburame Ryoma, his eyes slightly narrowed, and he thought carefully.

Aburame Ryoma has been responsible for collecting intelligence for the Roots for several years. He is indeed the right person to go.

However, Aburame Ryoma is not only responsible for intelligence, he is also one of the few masters under Danzo. Danzo relies on Ryoma for many things.

It would be such a waste to let him go.

After a moment, Danzo said: "No. I have more important tasks waiting to be given to you, Ryoma."

Ryoma nodded slightly, said nothing to refute, and consciously returned to his previous position.

In the hearts of the root staff, Danzo has absolute authority, and he can unconditionally obey whatever Danzo decides.

"Haha..." Orochimaru couldn't help but chuckle after clearly seeing the scene in front of him.

"Orochimaru, do you have any objections to Danzo-sama's judgment?!"

Before Danzo could say anything, Ryoma Aburame was the first to attack.

Judging from Ryoma's appearance, Orochimaru would become violent if he didn't give him a reasonable explanation.

Danzo also frowned, waiting for Orochimaru to give an explanation.

"Haha..." Orochimaru smiled softly and said, "How could it be possible? I admire Lord Danzo very much. Haha..."

"I just thought of a more suitable candidate."

Orochimaru looked at Danzo with amusement.
