After the squads were assigned, Danzo coldly announced, "From now on, Root will be the guardians of the roots of Konoha, this great tree. We will hide in the darkest places and eliminate all threats inside and outside the village. Better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free."

"From now on, forget your names, remember your code names."

"You will be the sharpest weapons to protect the village in the darkness, to safeguard the roots of Konoha."

"And the root is a sword sharper than the dark side!"

Kneeling on one knee, Hoshishita Hide looked up and added fuel to the fire: "Lord Danzo's will is the will of Root, and it is also our will!"

"We will be the sharpest sword in Lord Danzo's hand, eradicating all enemies!"

This summary suited his taste perfectly, and Danzo's eyes revealed a look of satisfaction.

What Xingxia Xiu said was exactly what he wanted to achieve.

But what he didn't know was that there was one more thing that Hoshino Shuu didn't say: The will of Root is also the will of Lord Danzo!

"With the Hokage's permission, Root missions do not need to be reported or filed."

Danzo continued.

Everyone was shocked upon hearing this.

Hoshishita Hide couldn't help but think to himself, "I'm afraid even Hiruzen Sarutobi wouldn't have imagined how much trouble his policies would cause for those who came after him."

"But for me, the more power Danzo and Root have right now, the better."

At this time, Shimura Daichi, whose code name was "Ten", began to assign tasks to squad leaders such as Hoshino Hide, giving each person a task sheet.

Danzo coldly said, "Go!"

"Proclaim the will of Root to Konoha, to the entire ninja world!"

"Disperse!"

Swish swish!

One after another, streaks of shadow flashed through the air, and Hoshino Hide and the others in front of Danzo disappeared one after another.

Training Ground 9.

Xingxia Xiu removed his mask and looked at his three subordinates: "You don't need to know my name now. Remember my code name, A!"

"I am the person Danzo-sama values ​​most among the Root members."

"Lord Danzo's will is the will of the Root, and the will of the Root is Lord Danzo's will."

"And here, between us, Lord Danzo's will is my will, and my will is Lord Danzo's will."

"Did you understand?"

Sarutobi Atsushi and the other two looked at each other in bewilderment.

Seeing the expressions on the three people's faces, Xingxia Xiu smiled and said, "It seems you don't quite understand. That's alright, you'll gradually understand in the future. Just remember what I said."

"Next, let me learn about your capabilities."

After putting his mask back on, Hoshino Hide's gaze fell on Sarutobi Atsushi.

Sarutobi Atsushi quickly replied, "Captain, I am skilled in Fire Release and Earth Release."

Inuzuka Ryo immediately used a summoning jutsu, and a black dog was summoned: "Captain, I specialize in the Inuzuka clan's beast mimicry technique. The black ball can track enemies by scent."

After glancing at the somewhat round black ball, Hoshino looked at Aburame Hiichi one last time.

Aburame Fei Yi said, "The secret techniques of the Aburame clan: combat, reconnaissance, perception, and communication."

Aside from Sarutobi Atsushi, Hoshishita Shu actually knew quite a bit about both the Inuzuka and Aburame clans.

Previously, Root was the training department of the Anbu. Apart from a few individuals, Root members were mostly from various ninja clans in Konoha, including the Inuzuka and Aburame clans.

And the ninjas trained would inevitably include those from these two clans.

As for the Sarutobi clan, they are not a clan specializing in secret techniques, but they have members skilled in various ninjutsu, though they are relatively famous for their fire-style techniques.

Nodding slightly, Hoshishita Hideyoshi said, "The target of this mission is Naoya Tsuchiya, a member of the Anbu unit, codenamed Iron Wall!"

Sarutobi Atsushi and the other two were startled.

The target turned out to be a member of the secret service.

Although the Anbu has many departments that are not necessarily directly under the Hokage, they are still quite formidable.

After all, the Anbu is the symbol of the most elite in Konoha.

Xingxia Xiu didn't explain anything and immediately used the Body Flicker Technique to get on his way.

Sarutobi Atsushi and the other two exchanged glances, then followed together.

Ten minutes later, Hoshino and her group arrived at the core area of ​​Konoha.

Although it was evening, the streets here were very lively, with people coming and going.

Xingxiaxiu stopped and stood on the rooftop, looking down at the bustling streets below.

Unfortunately, this prosperity and peace did not belong to him.

He's a "dead man" in Konoha now.

"We need to step into the sunlight..."

The thought flashed through his mind, and Xingxia Xiu immediately set off again.

A moment later, Hoshino appeared outside the Hokage Building, followed closely by Sarutobi Atsushi and the other two. Looking at the still brightly lit Hokage Building, they couldn't help but swallow hard.

They were originally all ordinary ninjas and did not know which department of the Anbu that Tsuchiya Naoya belonged to.

But when Hoshino Shu appeared outside the Hokage Building, he was a member of the Hokage's direct ANBU.

The Hokage's direct ANBU members ran into trouble, and it was Root that handled it... This is...

Has the power of the roots suddenly become so great?

Hiroshi Hoshino hid behind a large tree, with only one eye fixed on the direction of the Hokage Building.

Seeing that Hoshino Hide was silent, Sarutobi Atsushi and the other two also found a place to hide.

Time passed slowly, and the bustling Konoha began to fall silent under the cover of night. The lights in the Hokage Building, which was originally brightly lit, and several nearby buildings also began to dim rapidly.

In the latter half of the night, Xingxia Xiu finally moved, following behind a figure.

The latest novel is first published here!

This person did not come out of the Hokage Building, but from a building next door.

Sarutobi Atsushi looked on thoughtfully.

That building is an archive building, containing not only various files but also a large amount of ninjutsu data.

Following closely behind, Xingxia Xiu and her three companions accompanied their target all the way back to his home.

Outside Naoya Tsuchiya's house, Hideaki Hoshishita made a hand gesture.

Sign language is used throughout Konoha. Aburame Hideichi immediately nodded, and several insects were released, silently sneaking into Tsuchiya Naoya's house.

A moment later, an insect flew out, and Yu Nu Fei Yi released a swarm of insects.

After exchanging words for a moment, the insects spelled out two characters.

bathroom!

The target is taking a shower.

After seeing this, Hoshino gave another hand signal, and the four of them immediately and silently sneaked into Naoya Tsuchiya's house.

Naoya Tsuchiya is 21 years old and single, living alone.

Sarutobi Atsushi and his two companions guarded the three possible escape routes, while Hoshishita Hide sat in the living room.

A moment later, with a click, Tsuchiya Naoya came out of the bathroom. His expression immediately changed when he saw Hoshita Hideaki in the living room. Just as he was about to flee, Hoshita Hideaki's voice came over: "The road is blocked. Don't waste your chakra."

Sarutobi Atsushi and his two companions appeared and surrounded them.

Naoya Tsuchiya's eyes were filled with panic. After taking a deep breath, he calmed down slightly and shouted, "Who are you people?"

Hoshita Hide stood up and chuckled, "We are the Root organization led by Lord Danzo."

"Tsuchiya Naoya, you're also an ANBU member, you can't possibly not recognize us."

"And our arrival means your secret has been exposed."

"If you don't want to suffer too much, then just tell us what we want to know honestly."

After saying that, Hoshino Shige used the status bar's ability to directly impose "true to one's word" on Tsuchiya Naoya.

Of course, this wouldn't make Naoya Tsuchiya confess honestly, it would only prevent him from lying.

Naoya Tsuchiya, still clinging to a sliver of hope, coldly stated, "Root has no authority to investigate Anbu members. You are imposters. I demand to see the Third Hokage!"

Hoshita Hide chuckled, then suddenly appeared in front of Tsuchiya Naoya, his body radiating dense chakra. He grabbed Tsuchiya Naoya's neck with his right hand and slammed him against the wall with a thud.

Naoya Tsuchiya's eyes widened, his face flushed red from being unable to breathe.

"Even if you don't tell me, I can still kill you!"

Hoshino Hide stared into Tsuchiya Naoya's eyes: "However, I won't let you die so easily."

"Flying insects, can you eat him up little by little with your insects?"

Upon hearing this, Aburame Tobi hesitated slightly, then nodded: "Okay. But Captain, there's actually another kind of insect that injects toxins into him, causing him great pain."

Hoshino chuckled: "I prefer watching his chakra and body being eaten away by insects, rather than experiencing ordinary pain."

Sarutobi Atsushi then said, "Captain, I can actually use illusion magic."

"What if he didn't betray intelligence to the enemy..."

Hoshita Hide abruptly turned around and stared at Sarutobi Atsushi, a chilling smile appearing in his eyes: "Looks like you've forgotten what I just said!"

Clang!

As the sword was drawn, a piercing scream quickly turned into a muffled groan of pain.

Hoshita Hideki slashed off Tsuchiya Naoya's arm with one stroke, then covered his mouth with one hand: "Don't shout too loudly, it's impolite to disturb the neighbors."
