Chapter 421 Sudden bad news
Also killed in the battle was Gengniu's wife, Miyoko, codenamed Usagi.
Only Konohamaru, who had just turned one year old, was left in the family.
"Who did it?"
After listening to Minato's narration quietly, Kakugi clenched his fists and squeezed out the words through his teeth.
Although Kadomu's time in ANBU was short and he didn't have much contact with Gengyu, he was the son of a cheap master!
Moreover, Sarutobi Shinnosuke is an S-strength ninja. He is already considered a quasi-shadow. Anyone who can kill him is definitely not a weakling!
"Kirigakure." Minato rubbed his face tiredly and slowly told the origin of this mission.
Every great ninja village has spies throughout the ninja world, and Konoha is no exception. The beginning of this mission was the news from Konoha's nails planted in Kirigakure.
Kirigakure has been very active in the Kingdom of Water recently, threatening to turn the entire Kingdom upside down. It is said that Kirigakure was attacked, but the details are not known.
His own Mizukage and Six-Tails Jinchuuriki were captured, and after inspection, chakra was extracted from the tailed beasts. Naturally, the Genshi had given a hush-hush order among the participating Mist Ninjas about this matter, and the details of course could not be spread outside.
In addition, although he knew that the possibility of catching "Uchiha Madara" was slim, Genshi still issued an order for a nationwide manhunt. The main purpose was to deter other ninja villages from taking advantage of the opportunity to test.
Although the Kingdom of Water is not Konoha's expansion direction, as a neighbor across the sea, Konoha still needs to figure out what happened to Kirigakure.
Therefore, Minato ordered the ANBU to go to Kirigakure to detect the anomaly. Since Kirigakure has always been very closed, Konoha is not clear about Kirigakure's current situation, and coupled with Kirigakure's recent aggressive and frequent actions, Minato decided to send real masters there.
This task was handed over to Geng Niu and the team directly under him. In order to ensure the reconnaissance of the battlefield, Geng Niu brought the Thunder Tiger team with the white eyes along with him.
"Not long after arriving in the Kingdom of Water, we used Captain Thunder Tiger's Byakugan to capture a Kirigakure Anbu, trying to pry open his mouth to get some information, but we didn't expect..."
The words came from the corner, and it was then that Kakugi discovered Youshi Xiongshou squatting in the corner of the office, his body covered with thick bandages, and his face full of sadness.
"The ANBU of Kirigakure detonated the detonating talisman on him. When we were escaping, he set off a flare before he died. Then we were surrounded and suppressed by the ANBU of Kirigakure."
"Captain Gengniu immediately ordered us to abandon the mission and led us to fight and retreat. However, we were still surrounded by the Anbu led by Xiguashan Pufferfish Ghost at the seaside... Jiama and Maotu were killed in the battle, and Captain Leihu was seriously injured. , Captain Gengniu fought with the Watermelon Mountain Blowfish Ghost, and both sides suffered losses. Kirigakure suffered more casualties than us... In the end, Kirigakure retreated under the leadership of a guy with a shark face."
"Others died of serious injuries on the road... There were eight people in the two teams, and only Captain Thunder Tiger, myself, and the Fire Bird of Team A were still alive. The two of them are still in a coma after being seriously injured in the hospital... ."
Youshi Xiongshou said with a little choke in his voice.
In the entire team, only Xiongshou was still able to move, so it’s no wonder he was so excited.
Hearing Kumate's words, Kakugi couldn't help but feel a little dazed: his former teammate, the blasphemous Kouma, is also dead...
However, Kadomu still had questions, so he suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked, "Didn't Captain Gengniu reveal his identity?"
Konoha and Kirigakure have signed a peace agreement. In this case, although Konoha is considered the invading party, its strength is not much different from that of the Kirigakure Anbu who are chasing them: it can also be seen from the Kirigakure Anbu's active retreat in the end. One or two.
If Geng Niu reveals his identity in time, he will have a chance to evacuate safely - of course this requires the leader of Kirigakure's pursuit, the Watermelon Mountain Fugu Ghost, to weigh the pros and cons. It is an unspoken rule that the big country's ninja village will fight without breaking through. To implement this During this kind of infiltration investigation mission, they usually disguise themselves to hide their identities in the Ninja Village.
The chance of Gengniu's safe evacuation is actually quite high. Konohagakure has not obtained any intelligence. The team led by the Watermelon Mountain Blowfish Ghost Leader is obviously unable to defeat this Konoha elite team. There is actually no need to fight to lose both sides. Watching Mu Mu The best strategy is for Ye's team to leave the country. It’s impossible for the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Ghost not to see this.
"I've revealed my identity... It's just that these fog ninjas are all crazy and don't take the rules of the ninja village or their own lives seriously. Otherwise, we wouldn't be so passive in the beginning... ..”
Xiongshou roared lowly, his eyes red with anger.
"It's all my carelessness, it's my fault." Minato said tiredly: "Obviously I fought against Kirigakure during the war and knew Kirigakure's style, but I still carelessly sent you to do this without knowing the situation clearly. Dangerous place..."
"Stop talking, Minato." The third generation's dull voice sounded, and the tobacco in the pipe pot in his hand had long been burned out: "A ninja will inevitably die on the battlefield, let alone covering the retreat of his teammates. This is an honorable way to die!"
"The important thing now is what to do next. I suggest that Kirigakure's nails be allowed to lurk honestly. Don't make any moves recently, and don't try to sneak into Kirigakure again. Something big must have happened to Kirigakure. The village is crazy, there is no need for us to get into trouble..."
Minato rubbed his brows after hearing this. Naturally, what the third generation said was an old man's advice to seek the country. Especially when the third generation was the one suffering from the death of his son, it was even more rare for him to say such words.
But although this stopped Konoha's losses in time, it also played into Kirigakure's hands. Kirigakure's crazy attack posture was for this purpose, to shock other ninja villages.
Moreover, the information about Kirigakure was not available. Since Kirigakure had been sealed in the blood mist, even Konoha, who had fought with Kirigakure on the battlefield, knew very little about Kirigakure.
Minato agreed with the Third Generation's suggestion, but he still felt deeply unwilling.
"I object!" Kakumu said decisively. The eyes of other people in the room were instantly fixed on him.
Now Kazuoki's heart is filled with deep guilt: He can even think about it with his knees, why Kirigakure did this!
If Kadaku hadn't gone to Kirigakure to cause trouble, Kirigakure wouldn't have reacted so violently. As a time-traveler, "Child of Chaos", every move of Kakugi is enough to change the fate of many people in the ninja world.
"We can't just let it go! Captain Gengniu and the others' identities have been exposed. At this time, the silence of the flag plays into Kirigakure's hands. It will only let Kirigakure see the weakness of Konoha. In the future, Kirigakure will be more and more serious in matters involving Konoha. Becoming more and more unscrupulous!"
"Although we in Konoha infiltrated this matter first, Kirigakure also broke the unspoken rules of the ninja world. We must fight back, or at least bring back the information!"
Even though he said that, Kakugi's mind is now only thinking about going to the Kingdom of Water, to Kirigakure Village, and seeking revenge!
