Chapter 180: Konoha Rapids
The temporarily suspended middle ninja exam was resumed the next day, and the three generations did not consider canceling the middle ninja exam, but there was no suitable reason. Whether it is the appearance of Orochimaru, or the disappearance of Tomoko Hippo and Reiya Kiki, it is not something that can be put on the table.
If you don't give any reason to cancel the middle ninja exam, it will have a great negative impact on Konoha's prestige and image, and at this time, not only can it not be canceled, but it must also show Konoha's strength in front of many outsiders. Therefore, this originally ordinary Zhongnin exam has more political significance than usual.
The next day's exam was still not the focus of Konoha Shinobi and the villagers, and everyone's topic revolved around Chesswood Shuomao. And this news, on the day that the three generations were announced, it was transmitted back to their respective villages by many ninjas who participated in the middle ninja exam, and at this moment, I am afraid that many people have already gotten the news.
As the leading teacher of Sand Ninja Village this time, Maki's mission is not only to accompany his students to take the middle ninja exam, and he is a little absent-minded standing in the stands. He had already sent the word to Kazekage as quickly as possible, and suggested that the Sand Ninja Village withdraw from the operation, but he had not received any reply so far, which made him very uneasy.
Something seemed to have happened to Konoha yesterday, but he hadn't heard any news yet, but he noticed that Konoha's vigilance was much stricter than yesterday, and from time to time he could see the figure of the shadows, as if he was shrinking someone or something. "It can't be Orochimaru's whereabouts being revealed!" Ma Ji said in his heart, in fact, he was not very in favor of cooperating with Orochimaru, after all, Orochimaru was also their enemy, and he also had the blood of Sand Shinobi on his hands.
It's just that others are soft-spoken, and those elders won't follow his advice at all, even the four generations of Kazekage think that this is a rare opportunity, just cooperating with someone like Orochimaru, it is to seek skin with a tiger, how can the elders in the village not know?
Hinata Hinata sat solemnly in front of Kiki Sakushige, and the three generations gave him the task of supporting Kiki Sakushige and finding the missing Tomoko Hippo and Kiki Lingya, so even if he was a little reluctant to face Kiki Sakushige, he had to come here to listen to orders.
That's right, it's just to listen to the orders, the current Konoha is a person who is qualified and capable of shouting in front of Qimu Shuomao, except for the third generation, there is no one else. And Hinata Hinata Hinata who once performed tasks under Kiki Shuo Shigeru will always be a junior in front of Konoha White Fang, whether it is seniority or ability.
Qimu Shuomao's face was gloomy, since the accident between the two, his face has not been better, and he asked in a hoarse voice: "Rizu, how much do you know about Hanyu?" ”
Hinata Hinata had long expected that Kiki Shuo Shigeru would have this question, in fact, when he received the news yesterday, the first thing he thought of was Hippo Hanyu's reaction, but he didn't know that Hippo Hanyu was not in the village at the time, and he kept paying close attention. But until today, there has been no further news, and he guessed that something seemed to have happened in Houshan the day before yesterday, and Hippo Hanyu would not really have an accident! On the way here, he learned from the mouth of the red bean that the hippo Hanyu was not in the village, and the calm of Konoha before could be understood.
"For so many years, I haven't seen through him, but I just hope that the two ladies don't have an accident." Hinata Hinata didn't say it very bluntly, because he knew that even the Kiki Sakushige, who was known for his calmness, had been suppressing his anger and worry.
Kiki Shuomao stared at Hinata Hinata until Hinata Hinata Hinata had been cultivating his mind for so many years and was a little breathless, so he sighed deeply and said, "If something happens to them, it will be an absolute disaster for Konoha and those who hurt them. Because, whatever he decides to do, I will definitely be on his side, and it is my responsibility. ”
There seems to be another meaning in these words, Hinata Hinata Hinata eyes fell on the table, pondering the meaning of Chesswood Shuo Mao in his heart, and the biggest emotion in his heart was that Chess Wood Shuo Mao had changed, and he was no longer the "Konoha White Fang" who always put Konoha in the first place.
But looking at the plain and unsharp eyes of Kiki Shuomao, Hinata Hinata knew that the strength of Kiki White Fang had only entered a new realm, and he couldn't detect the slightest breath of a ninja at all, and this was the gap in strength, the fatal gap.
"I already understand what my predecessors mean, I will contact the major families in the village and ask them to help find the two ladies and ensure their safety." Hinata Hinata smiled bitterly in his heart, he was afraid that he had jumped into the fire pit this time, and he had to jump into the fire pit.
"Hmm!" Kiki Shuomao nodded, and watched Hinata leave with Hinata Hinata.
"Parker, are you still not aware of the breath?" Kakashi's brows furrowed, he thought that he would soon be able to find out the whereabouts of his mother and aunt, but all of Konoha's interrogation ninja dogs were dispatched, and they didn't notice the slightest breath.
Inuzuka Hana was already full of exhaustion, and ran several places with the ninja dog, but the opponent seemed to know them well, and laid several doubts to keep them running, but there was no result. "It seems that those people are also masters of anti-investigation, and the clues we found are obviously the suspicions they have laid out, and the real clues have long been eliminated by them."
"Let's go back first! Let's see if there is any presence in the predecessors of Shihiro Oil. Kakashi also knew that after a day and a night of searching, both the ninja dog and Inuzuka Hana were already exhausted, and now they had to go back and take a look.
"Hinata, what do you mean by that, threatened?" Akimuro Yamamoto stood up and pointed to Hinata's nose and asked.
Hinata Hinata lowered his eyes, as if he hadn't heard Yamamoto Akimuro's anger at all, and still said in that calm and rigid tone: "Elder Yamamoto is so old, and he is still so excited. Rizu is also a kind reminder, passing on the word from generation to generation, how can the elders think it is a threat? If you really want to talk about threats, when Kiki Shuomao comes in person, I'm afraid Elder Yamamoto won't be so arrogant, remember that back then, there was also an elder who was bent on suppressing Kiki Shuomao! ”
"You—" Akimuro Yamamoto jumped up as if someone had stepped on his tail. Because of the joint suppression of the three generations and Zhuan Xiaochun and others, he has faded out of the Konoha Elder Group, since he heard that Qimu Shuomao is not dead, he has been a little panicked, and today he was bullied by Hinata Hinata again, so he can only hide the panic in his heart.
"I think that as long as the elders do their best to help find the two of them, the chess tree seniors will not care about the previous ones, and I will have to go to the other elders' homes to ask for assistance, so I will leave." Hinata Hinata is also pulling the tiger skin to pull the banner, there is no way.
"Bastard, damn it." Yamamoto Akimuro scolded Hinata Hinata fiercely, but the cold sweat on his forehead flowed uncontrollably.
Naruto Uzumaki rushed out of the examination room, and after a fierce battle, he also successfully passed the initial selection, but like Xiao Li, his mind was no longer on the examination room, and the reason why he was still fighting so desperately was just hoping to have a good fight with the one who despised him in the back.
"Bang" Naruto Uzumaki ran headlong into someone, and before he could get up, he heard a very noisy voice scolding, "Boy, how did you walk without eyes?" ”
Naruto Uzumaki rubbed his eyes, and after seeing a strangely dressed middle-aged man in front of him yelling at him a few times, he crawled by the wall and didn't move.
"Uh", when Naruto saw the sign under the eaves, he couldn't help but exclaim, "Colored wolf-"
Then there was a faint female scream from behind the wall, and the strange middle-aged man turned around angrily, glared at him fiercely, and then fled the scene as fast as he could. Nonsense, if you don't run away now, are you waiting to be caught?
"Hey, don't you run?" Naruto Uzumaki didn't intend to let him go so easily, and chased after him.
The strange middle-aged man reflexively raised his foot and directly kicked Naruto into the hot spring that was rushing in front of him, and then disappeared without a trace.
"Hey, old pervert, are you going to wander around like this all the time back to Konoha?" As soon as the weird middle-aged man came out of the wine house, he heard a sweet voice asking, and the weird middle-aged man looked up at the person, and couldn't help but shiver, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be red beans!" It's been a long time. ”
"Hmph", Hongdou ignored the smiling face of the weird middle-aged man, pulled his face and said, "Lord Qimu Shuomao, please come over." ”
"Kiki Shuo Shige?" The smile on the face of the strange middle-aged man immediately retracted, and the glimmer of color in his eyes quickly faded, "So he really isn't dead." ”
Naruto Uzumaki, who came over in a wet suit, happened to watch the strange middle-aged man leave after Azuki, and was a little puzzled: "How did Azuma-sensei know that Uncle Color." ”
"Jiraiya, you're back." Qimu Shuomao saw Jiraiya, there was no surprise, Hippo Hanyu had already explained to Red Bean and them, if Orochimaru appeared, Jiraiya would follow.
"You're a chess ??? Sakumo" Jiraiya's eyes stared at the boss, he didn't run to the hippo Hanyu's house, and he saw Kenzen Yuanzuo much more times than the three generations, but he never recognized it, the former housekeeper who had shaken times in front of his eyes would actually be Qimu Shuomao, arrogantly Qimu Shuomao.
"Was it a surprise?" Kiki Shuomao pointed to the position opposite him and said, "You came back just in time, Hippo Hanyu's mother, Tomoko Hippo, and my wife were taken away. ”
"What?" Jiraiya was even more surprised, "Who can capture them under the noses of you and Hippo Hanyu?" ”
"Hippo Hanyu is not in Konoha, and he doesn't know yet." Qimu Shuomao's eyes were a little gloomy, and he said, "It's me who is too careless." ”
Jiraiya was silent, he knew better than anyone what this meant? The fact that the opponent was able to catch the mistake of Qimu Shuomao is very illustrative in itself, and this matter is probably not simple. What is their purpose? Threat? Or-
A drop of cold sweat dripped from Jiraiya's forehead, he didn't expect to encounter such a thing as soon as he came back, headache!
