Chapter 597: An Unquiet Night

The next morning, Rope Tree summoned all the high-ranking officials in the Western Territory in the office building, announced the list of people who had returned to Konoha, and made arrangements for the duties of the shogunate.

Since the rope tree had already released the wind beforehand, it did not cause any confusion, and the handover of duties went very smoothly.

The most unexpected of these are the two leaders who take over the position of the Dark Stationmaster, not only do these two always wear masks to hide their identities, but they also have very strange code names, named "One" and "Two" respectively.

Everyone was very curious about the true identities of the two, but they didn't take the initiative to explore, don't look at the dark department, the identity information of some high-level officials has been relaxed a lot in recent years, such as the identities of Hagi Sakumo and Kato Broken are not a secret among the high-level, but everyone knows that this is the rope tree in order to build momentum for the two of them and take the initiative to reveal.

And these two strange dark leaders, not only have a powerful aura, but also did not reveal any information in advance, they are obviously the two trump cards that the rope tree has been hiding for a long time, so no one will take the initiative to spy on them. Everyone knows that the dark part is the descendant power of the rope tree, and its special status has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and no high-level will touch this taboo for curiosity.

After making the final arrangements for the affairs of the Western Territory, Rope Tree set off with a large team at noon that day. The news of Skywalker's return to Konoha quickly spread throughout the ninja world.

Only a few people know what happened last night in the Great General's Mansion, as well as the specific plans against the two powerful enemies.

Since the team led by Rope Tree was composed of all ninjas, the speed of the march was very fast, and he had already left the Western Territory that afternoon, and that evening, Rope Tree and the more than 20,000 ninjas under his command finally saw the familiar Konoha Gate again.

At this time, Konoha was already in full bloom, and all the Konoha high-level officials who had already received the news gathered outside the gate to wait for the return of the rope tree. The streets were lined with spontaneous villagers, holding flowers in their hands and their faces full of enthusiasm, and when they saw the rope tree appear, they erupted into a tsunami-like cheer.

"Skywalker!" "Skywalker!" "Skywalker!" ……

The crowd invoked the name of the Earthwalker in unison, a belated welcome to the triumphant warriors.

This scene made the Rope Tree feel as if he had returned to the day of his first triumphant return from the Vortex Country a few years ago.

It's a pity that these Konoha high-level executives in front of him are no longer as sincere as they were back then, and he is no longer the hot-blooded boy who made a "speech" because he was moved. As a mature ruler, he had experienced this similar situation many times in the west, and he could no longer stir up any waves in his heart.

While responding warmly and politely to Konoha's welcome ceremony based on his previous experience, Rope Tree felt in his heart that things were wrong with people.

After a reunion that has not been seen for many years, the relationship between the two parties does not seem to have any effect, and everyone greets each other warmly.

After the welcoming ceremony, there was no meeting to discuss matters, and the newly returned ninjas returned to their long-lost families to reunite with their relatives and friends.

Although Konoha seems to be happy and peaceful, the strong return of the rope tree has filled the hearts of many high-level officials with all kinds of ideas, and most of them are thinking about how Konoha's political situation will change, and how they should respond to it. I'm afraid there are a lot of people in Konoha today who can't sleep.

Just as Konoha was welcoming the return of the rope tree, the branch ninja village far west seemed a little deserted.

In particular, the Great General's Mansion, which used to be brightly lit and full of people, has become deserted after Rope Tree left with more than 20,000 descendant ninjas, and only a few ninjas patrolled outside the gate.

In the middle of the night, a mysterious figure suddenly appeared in the empty courtyard of the Great General's Mansion.

Through the moonlight, it can be seen that this person is directly drilled out of the ground, with two large pitcher plants wrapped around his body on both sides, plus the yin and yang faces that are black and white in the moonlight, isn't it absolutely which one?

"Hey, hey, hey...... There was no one around, and it looked like Skywalker had really left! Half of his white face grinned, revealing half of his fangs.

The other half of the black absolute said calmly: "Be careful, Skywalker is unpredictable, and it is likely that he will leave something behind!" ”

Desperately walking through the General's Mansion, trying to find information about the rope tree.

"I don't understand, what's there to find out here, it should be more beneficial to our plans after Skywalker leaves?" Bai Jue asked tentatively, his "ex" could be beaten by Skywalker to the point of a collapse of consciousness, so he didn't want to take the initiative to provoke the other party.

Hei Jue said with a gloomy face: "Skywalker is not only powerful, but also very mysterious, it seems that he can always grasp our vital point, in recent years, the other party is very close to our main target, it seems to have discovered something!" And I suspect that the disappearance of that thing has something to do with him.

The other side has been looking for traces of us all these years, and I even suspect that the location of our base has been exposed.

Gao Zhi's man is too dangerous, sooner or later he will threaten our plans, and we must find a way to deal with him! Now while he is away, I hope to find useful information, analyze the weaknesses of the other party, and make arrangements. ”

"Oh? I'm curious what your plan is?"

A voice came from the darkness, startling the two of them, "What someone! He asked, surprised.

With a crisp sound of "pop", the lights in the General's Mansion lit up, illuminating the dark environment as if it were day.

Three sudden figures appeared, sealing the desperate retreat.

"Aren't you looking for me? Why don't you know each other?"

Jue looked at the young man opposite, his eyes widened, and he exclaimed, "Thousand Hands Rope Tree!" Why are you here?"

"Of course, I'm waiting for Your Excellency to throw yourself into the net! It's a pity that Madara Uchiha didn't come in person this time, and it seems that his injuries are even more serious than I thought! But it was a surprise to catch your fellow hitarra. Rope said with a smile on his face.

It turned out that the rope tree was inevitably startling the snake and arousing Madara's vigilance, so he directly designed a plan to lure the snake out, deliberately returning to Konoha with his subordinates with great fanfare, and leaving a real clone with most of the power to lurk among the generals with the first and second generations.

After dark, he appeared just as he had guessed, and was blocked by them.

In fact, Madara did not appear, which also made Rope Tree breathe a sigh of relief, after all, if Madara broke out with all his strength, its destructive power would be no less than that of the Nine-Tails, and if the two sides fought in the western ninja village, it would inevitably cause heavy losses. And after the special person in charge of investigation and Madara are separated, it will be much easier to deal with.
