Even Ibixi, who is good at interrogation, can't understand what Liu Li means at the moment.

Entering Konoha alone, and letting yourself help interrogate one of Orochimaru's men?

……

"That's the way it is, Hokage-sama. ”

A shadow ninja and Sakura stand together, reporting on what Ibiki is saying.

It's enough for Ibiki to let people report it, because he also has a subordinate handed over to him by Liu Li, Orochimaru.

No matter what happens next, it's also important to get Orochimaru's information out of this subordinate's mouth.

Tsunade folded his hands and propped his chin on, his brows furrowed.

"Xiaoren, why did you come to our Konoha for help with such a big face?"

"Interrogation?"

"Borrow a ninja dog?"

The bend in the middle is really unavoidable, and people can't guess what Liu Li is thinking.

"That...... Uncle Liu Li doesn't seem to be wearing Xiao's uniform. Sakura weakly reminded.

"Oh, you're saying it's possible that he's out of Akatsuki?"

"There is this possibility, after all, judging from my contact with him, Uncle Liu Li is not a bad person, and joining Xiao Lixiao may be dispensable for him. Sakura said.

"It's possible...... Well, I'll go and meet him for a while!"

－－－－－－

"The information you wanted. ”

Tsunade scratches a folded piece of paper from the table.

"Thank you. ”

Glancing at the address on it, Liu Li picked up the paper.

"Can you tell me what the hell you're thinking?" Tsunade looked at Liu Li with a majestic gaze.

She really couldn't figure out why Liu Li came back to Konoha.

Although he was merciful to Konoha for the first two times, this is not a reason for a member of Akatsuki to enter Konoha in a high-sounding manner, right?

"What am I thinking? I said I want the Nine-Tails, do you believe it?" Liu Li said with a smile.

"That's a good reason, but you don't seem to take us Konoha seriously when you enter the village like this. ”

Want the Nine-Tails, of course, many people want, this reason said in the past.

"Actually, we don't have any enmity between us, right? So why can't I come to Konoha?"

"But you're a member of Xiao, who can guarantee that you're not here to ask for information in Konoha? ”

Tsunade also saw Liu Li's clothes, indeed, it was an ordinary set of clothes, not Xiao's uniform with a red cloud on a black background.

"To be sure, I'm not a member of Akatsuki right now. ”

"Oh?

"Hmm. ”

"Falling out?"

"Sort of. ”

Is it really quitting?

However, there is also the possibility of pretending.

"In that case, we in Konoha welcome His Excellency Liu Li to join. ”

"No, I still feel better at being free. Regarding Tsunade's solicitation, Liu Li didn't want to refuse.

"It's fine. ”

If Liu Li really agreed, it would seem like a ghost.

"But about Xiao's information, we would like to talk to His Excellency Liu Li in detail. ”

"This can only be talked about when Naruto returns...... To tell you the truth, Penn's miscellaneous cultivators, your village can't beat it combined. That's it, did the dog bring it?"

Liu Li didn't seem to plan to exchange information with Konoha about Xiao.

The secret text left last time was like this, and this time it is too, and we will have to wait for Naruto to come back to talk about it.

But is Payne really that strong?

Liu Li obviously wouldn't say it, and Tsunade didn't force it.

Now that there is a sign of friendly relations, it is better to let him maintain it.

And this mission can also probe the intelligence of Orochimaru, which can be regarded as earning.

"Shikamaru, your team and Your Excellency Liu Li will work together to complete this task. ”

"Yes. ”

Shikamaru, Sakura, Tooth, and Akamaru walked up with a dog.

Ya and Akamaru are the search-type talents required by Liu Li, and they can complete the task well.

Shikamaru is a high-IQ talent, and he believes that he will be able to get more information.

And Sakura-chan and Liu Li's relationship is the best in Konoha except for Naruto, who didn't come back, so let her be with her.

It's up to them how much intelligence they can get from this mission.

－－－－－－

On the super beast pseudo-painting, Shikamaru looked at Liu Li, who was contemplating, and felt a little troublesome.

Don't always send him such tasks!

This guy, from the first time he met in the middle ninja exam, seemed to have seen through everyone, and he was not a figure to deal with at all.

It's hard, hard to complete the task given to them by the Hokage.

……

"Uncle Liu Li, why did you quit Xiao?"

Shikamaru was still thinking about it here, and Sakura asked directly.

Shikamaru was stunned.

OK...... Is it so straightforward?

"Because Akatsuki's leader, Payne, wanted me to carry out the mission, I didn't want to carry it out, so I quit. ”

Did you really answer?

Shikamaru was stunned for a moment, is it so easy to speak?

"That's it?Can you just quit?" Sakura didn't believe it was that simple.

"Of course, I can't quit directly, I met the flying section and horn of the undead duo two days ago, and I had a fight. ”

"Did you win?"

"Of course I won, otherwise how do you think I could talk to you here?"

"Are they awesome?"

"Hmm...... Anyway, the average person will basically die when they encounter it for the first time, but it is much easier to deal with them if you understand their methods. ”

Liu Li and Sakura were talking, and Shikamaru was listening quietly.

An undead duo?

Flying segments and horns?

The first time you encounter it, you must die?

This information was memorized by Shikamaru.

Because although Liu Li was talking to Sakura about this, he didn't really mention their abilities, so that's all the information he could get.

"It's coming. ”

After flying for a while, he finally approached the address that Ibiki had tortured.

"It smells of blood. ”

"Wang. ”

Tooth and Akamaru warned at the same time.

"It's going to fall, pay attention, don't be attacked. Liu Li reminded.

"Yes. ”

……

"There's someone right in front of you, go straight over. ”

Liu Li said after glancing at the minimap.

Then he rushed forward in the first place.

"Let's go. ”

Liu Li rushed to the front, and Lu Maru and they could naturally follow behind with confidence.

It's great to have such a strong man take the lead.

……

A staircase leading to the underground, Liu Li walked into it without thinking about it.

The light of the magic in the palm flickered.

"Whew——!"

A huge monster suddenly rushed out of the shadows, half of its body twisted, and one arm turned into a spiral drill, smashing it into Liu Li.

"It's a curse mark!"

Shikamaru and Fang have seen this kind of person, and it was Orochimaru's spell mark that made them look like this.

"Miscellaneous Cultivation!"

Boom –

When Shikamaru Sakura, Tooth and Akamaru didn't react at all, the monster that jumped out and attacked was directly pressed to the ground by an invisible force.

"Uhh......h

An invisible force grabbed him by the throat.

The hideous arm tried to save itself, but it couldn't grasp the invisible hand anyway.

Clicks–

"Let's go. ”
