Chapter 101 Incident

Chiba heard the meeting between Hatake Sakumo and other jonin and guessed that this mission was the one that caused Hatake Sakumo to commit suicide.

Because as the leader of the Konoha ninjas in the Land of Grass, Hatake Sakumo's duty is to deploy troops and take charge of the overall situation.

In the stable situation of the Land of Grass, there is no need for Hatake Sakumo to lead the team personally to carry out the mission.

And now that the team to intercept the Iwagakure scroll is led by Hatake Sakumo himself, it is most likely this mission.

And this task is indeed quite important.

If the Iwagakure's scroll does indeed record the plan for the subsequent strategy, then if Konoha gets this scroll, it will have a huge impact on the subsequent war.

At that time, Hatake Sakumo had a chance to get the scroll, but he lost it because of saving his companions, which would definitely cause dissatisfaction among the Konoha high-level officials.

However, Chiba was very curious about who would leak this secret and make Hatake Sakumo the target of criticism from everyone in Konoha.

Even the sinister and cunning Danzo would not do such a thing at this time.

Although Danzo will do anything to achieve his goals, it must be said that he is still very loyal to Konoha.

I believe Danzo is very clear about how important Hatake Sakumo is to the current Konoha.

At this critical juncture, destroying White Fang, who is as powerful as the Three Ninjas of Konoha, would be a complete disaster for Konoha and Danzo, with no benefit at all.

After all, if Konoha is gone, no matter how unscrupulous Danzo is, it will be of no use.

But all this has nothing to do with him. He just needs to be a spectator, watch what happens, and get the witness point.

Just when Qianyu continued to listen to the meeting as if it had nothing to do with her, Hatake Sakumo suddenly looked at Qianyu.

"Qianyu, you are very mobile. Are you interested in carrying out this mission with me?"

Qianyu frowned.

He was just a spectator and had no intention of getting involved in this mess.

And if he got involved in this mess, there was a high possibility that Kakashi would no longer be his true companion.

After all, the idiot who was saved by Hatake Sakumo will blame Hatake Sakumo.

The same is certainly true for the other teammates.

Even if Qianyu didn't do this, she would definitely be counted in the eyes of others.

If he doesn't blame Hatake Sakumo at that time, people will think that he must have participated in the accusation.

Therefore, Qianyu must not participate in this mission.

Qianyu declined, “I’m sorry, Master Shumao, I have a technique that is currently in an important stage of development, and the main reason I returned to the base this time is to be able to develop this technique with peace of mind.

Also, Orochimaru will send a summoning beast to inform me of something soon. Although I am looking forward to carrying out the mission with Master Sakumo, I cannot act with Master Sakumo this time."

Hatake Sakumo nodded.

Although Chiba came to the Land of Grass for support, Hatake Sakumo thought Chiba was a person with a special mission and did not regard Chiba as his subordinate.

So when Chiba said that she wanted to develop a new technique, and that Orochimaru might contact her and she could not participate in the operation, Hatake Sakumo did not force her.

The reason why Hatake Sakumo made this invitation was indeed because Chiyu was strong enough.

At the same time, this task is of great merit, and if Qianyu participates in it, he can also share some of the credit.

After all, Chiyu is now the master of his son Kakashi, so he would naturally help if he can.

But there's nothing we can do since Qianyu refused.

Hatake Sakumo finally said: "Now it's settled, I will lead the team, the three of you will follow me, and then let a sensory ninja follow us, we will set off in an hour.

During the time I'm away, Shinjie, you will be in charge of the deployment. This mission is a confidential one, so it's enough for only a few of us to know about it!"

This Shinsuke is also a member of the Nara clan and has a signature pineapple head.

After the meeting, Hatake Sakumo said to Chiyu, "Chiyu, you have worked hard during this period. Thanks to you, we found a lot of hidden bases of the Rock Ninja. I didn't expect that the Rock Ninja actually had so many hidden bases.

If a full-scale war really breaks out, these hidden strongholds are likely to cause us heavy losses."

Qianyu said modestly: "This is my mission and my duty."

Hatake Sakumo forced an ugly smile and said, "The last time I saw Kakashi, he had become much stronger. It is really lucky for him to have you as his master. I will trouble you a lot from now on. I have to go on a mission next. Chiyu, you should have a good rest at the base."

Qianyu nodded and said, "Yes, Lord Sakumo, you can rest assured about Kakashi."

Chiba left the room and met Kakashi waiting at the door.

Kakashi asked, "Teacher Chiba, is the meeting over?"

Chiba looked at Kakashi with a strange look in his eyes and nodded, "Well, it's over. You can go see Master Sakumo."

"it is good."

Kakashi entered the room.

Qianyu breathed a sigh of relief. After this mission, the situation of Konoha in the Land of Grass would change.

The lack of a ninja in charge is equivalent to the lack of a backbone, and problems will easily arise.

During the time when Hatake Sakumo was back, Qianyu didn't plan to continue searching and would wait and see how the situation develops.

Although he felt a little sorry for Kakashi knowing that something would happen to Hatake Sakumo, he couldn't change anything.

Hatake Sakumo, who has a deep belief in the will of fire, will definitely not give up this mission or give up rescuing his companions just because of his one-sided words.

There was even a possibility that Hatake Sakumo would be hostile to him.

Therefore, standing aside and watching was the only thing Qianyu could do.

Hatake Sakumo and four ninjas have quietly set off.

Except for a limited number of people, no one else knew that Hatake Sakumo had gone on the mission personally.

Qianyu came to his room in the base and took out a map with many crosses on it.

Qianyu plans to take advantage of this period of time to check for omissions and see if there is anything he has missed so that he can look for it directly next time.

Time passed quickly.

It has been a week since Hatake Sakumo left the base to carry out his mission.

During these seven days, Shinsuke Nara was in charge of the situation at the base and nothing happened.

In the past few days, Qianyu has been practicing himself and teaching Kakashi how to practice.

This evening.

Hatake Sakumo, who was away on a mission, is back.

There were five of us when we left, and there were five of us when we came back.

All five people were injured. One of them had his right arm missing and his legs were a bloody mess, apparently having been blown off by an explosive talisman or something.

As soon as they returned to the base, Hatake Sakumo immediately shouted for the medical ninja.

Qianyu leaned against the shadow of the wall and watched the development of the situation.

Now Chiyu can be completely sure that this incident was the one that induced Hatake Sakumo to commit suicide.
