Chapter 621 Memory

Late at night, eleven o'clock.

At this point in time, most people in Muye Village finished their day's work and began to wander in peaceful and peaceful dreams, washing away the tiredness of working during the day.

In the deserted forest, only the hazy moonlight shrouded it, and the outline of a trail can be vaguely seen, leading to the deeper woods.

Shiraishi walked along this path, leading the way ahead, and behind him, Masumi Asami walked slowly.

Perhaps it was the smell of rain at dusk, the air blowing from the forest on both sides of the path was a little bit cold, which made her body cold, and she subconsciously hugged her arms tightly.

She glanced at Baishi who was walking ahead without turning back, bit her lower lip a little bit aggrieved, and followed up again with great reluctance.

This is the private territory of the Uchiha clan.

It is forbidden for outsiders to visit it, and only those who are "permitted" by the Uchiha clan are eligible to use this forest.

As the 'son-in-law' of the genius Jonin of the Uchiha clan, he obviously also has the right to use this forest.

According to Asami Masumi's guess, no accident, the forest area Shiraishi brought him to is the private territory of that Uchiha genius girl.

Safe, secret, no man's land, lonely men and widows.

All kinds of bad words come to mind, although I am not very willing to think about the worst, but this situation, in Asami Masumi's view, is really a bit bad for me.

As a ninja, she is not naive.

In the battle of ninjas, if you blindly compromise, you will eventually lose all your chips until there is no way to retreat.

If the other party wants to make very excessive demands later, even if it is death, a few teeth of the other party will be broken. Having made up her mind, Asami Masumi lowered her head, a slight white light appeared on the lens, making it difficult for people to see her sharp eyes.

Then, she silently slipped the scalpel hidden in her cuff into her right hand, and a warm sense of security filled her chest from within.

Although she was taught how to use kunai and shuriken when she was in the ninja school, and her fianc also gave her some pointers on the use of ninja tools... But she prefers to use a scalpel, a more delicate tool, than kunai and shuriken, which are familiar murder ninja tools.

Not only is it easy to hide, but it is also as sharp as Kunai.

Most importantly, as a medical ninja, she has far more contact with medical tools than ordinary ninja tools.

Using this can easily cut open the enemy's abdomen and chest, cut off the enemy's throat and trachea, and make the enemy's body bleed profusely, feeling more painful than death.

Enemies are like patients lying on the operating table.

And I am just performing an operation on these 'patients' that will never wake up.

So, like a normal person, she followed Baishi's footsteps step by step, and her steps were much lighter.

While following behind Baishi, she had already figured out that if there was a conflict later, she would need a few steps to cut the opponent's throat.

"arrive."

Ahead, Shiraishi's voice sounded, and he stopped.

But he didn't look back, he just said this into the surrounding air, making sure that those behind him could hear.

Asami Masumi raised her head, pushed the frame on the bridge of her nose with the **** of her right hand, looked at the surrounding environment, her eyes flickered.

At the end of the path, there was a rather wide open space, about a thousand square meters, surrounded by tall trees, and the moonlight shining down from the night sky could not penetrate the thick forest to reach this open space.

At the corner of the open space, there is a wooden house built. It doesn't look big as a whole. The windows and doors are tightly sealed, so you can't see what's inside.

The rest of the place is blank.

But it is not accurate to say that it is completely blank. There are still many wooden stakes and targets in the open space, as well as digging and construction tools that have not been cleaned up in time.

There is no doubt that this is an extremely secret private training place, belonging to someone's private property.

People in the village cannot get close to themselves, and Hokage, including Anbu, who is directly under Hokage, cannot intervene without reason and invade the privacy here.

Every piece of land here is engraved with the name of 'Uchiha', which is full of deterrence.

This also means that no matter what happens here, it will be very difficult for outsiders to enter the investigation.

Asami Masumi could not help but grasp the white coat on her body, and hid the scalpel in her right hand even more tightly to ensure that it would not be exposed.

In this way, no matter what happens later, I will not lose the power to resist.

"come on."

Turning around, Shiraishi took a little look at Asami Masumi's figure, and froze on her expressionless face for two or three seconds before turning his head again, walking towards the closed door of the wooden house, and taking out the key to unlock the door above.

The room was pitch black, and he couldn't see his fingers. Baishi habitually touched the wall next to him and pressed the switch, and the room was illuminated by bright yellow lights, driving away the darkness.

With a nervous mood, he followed Baishi into the wooden house.

Hearing the door behind him slamming and watching, Asami Masumi's heart skipped a beat.

In addition to the double bed for rest, there are only some simple tables and chairs in the wooden house. It seems that it is just a temporary stop for rest when you feel tired during the cultivation process.

"Sorry, it's easy to be discovered when meeting in other places. Although this place is simple, it is better at concealment. Coupled with my perception ninjutsu, I guarantee that no one will be eavesdropping. Don't worry, Asami-san."

No, wouldn't it be more dangerous this way?

Following Shiraishi's comforting words, Asami Masumi's heart became more vigilant.

"Let's say it first, I won't do that kind of thing with you, let's die."

Closing against the corner of the wall, Asami Masumi hid the right hand holding the scalpel behind her back. Although her expression was slightly helpless, her words revealed a firm veto.

That kind of thing?

What kind of thing?

Baishi was slightly taken aback, but didn't react for a while, and froze in place.

Immediately, she saw Asami Masumi's white face full of helplessness and sadness, but also full of stubbornness. At this time, she bit her lower lip slightly, as if she was engaged in some kind of extremely fierce psychological struggle. For some reason, her body was full of a weak atmosphere that wanted to be bullied.

Baishi opened his mouth slightly, he couldn't keep up with the jumpy speech of this old classmate.

"Asami-san, I'm a ninja, how can I force a woman to do that?"

"It can be said that before becoming a ninja, you are a man first, or a man of this special age. Moreover, there are only two of us here, no matter what happens, no one outside will know."

I feel that if I continue to entangle on this topic, it will become a discussion about male biological behavior.

"The request in this area is indeed very tempting, but please rest assured that I don't need you to solve my physical needs for me."

It feels like this old classmate has misunderstood something.

Could it be that in the eyes of outsiders, he is the kind of pervert who would have a strong interest in other people's fiancees?

Baishi shook his head, he couldn't compliment the opponent's brain circuit.

"Are you trying to make me feel subdued first?"

The struggling and sad expression on his face became more vivid.

"Before you say this, can you take the scalpel off your hand?"

While seducing him with a helpless and weak posture, he held the scalpel tightly in his hand.

If you walk over without any precaution, you will definitely get your throat slit and die.

Asami Masumi's body trembled slightly.

was discovered.

Lowered his head, the helpless and weak expression on his face disappeared in an instant, as if by magic.

"Did you find it? I thought I was hiding it well."

Shiraishi didn't explain.

How could the Chunin, who holds the position of team leader in the drug development team of the pharmacy department, be so weak.

"Don't worry, I have no malice towards you, and you don't need to be so vigilant. The reason why I brought you here is only because it is hidden enough to ensure that there will be no accidents on the way to understand the truth."

Shiraishi didn't approach Asami Masumi, and kept a distance of three to four meters from the other party, smiling.

"the truth?"

Seemingly confused by these two words, Asami Masumi raised her head and met Shiraishi's smiling eyes.

"Of course it's the truth about your fianc, Fujisaki Jonin, who died in the mission. To be honest, after watching the whole process, I was also scared."

"you know!?"

As Shiraishi's words fell, Asami Masumi's voice suddenly became excited and disturbed.

The next moment, her expression became vigilant again, she stared at Shiraishi's whole body, shook her head and questioned: "No, you are not a member of the secret mission team, and you have a close relationship with the Uchiha clan. Hokage-sama will never...you lie to me!"

Suddenly recognized this fact, so that his eyes became terrifying, and he stared at Shiraishi fiercely, as if he wanted to goug out a big hole in his body.

"Indeed, I am not a member of the Fujisaki Jonin Squad. Similarly, the third generation will not tell me such a secret thing... that is because the one who told me the truth... there is another 'person'."

Shiraishi said with a smile.

"who is it?"

Asami Masumi's eyes were full of doubts, obviously he didn't fully believe Shiraishi's words.

Shiraishi did not directly explain, but took out a scroll from his pocket, and under Asami Masumi's curious gaze, placed it on the floor, and slowly opened it.

"untie."

Hands made seals, spread out the scroll on the floor, and immediately a cloud of white smoke came out.

Along with the cloud of white smoke, there was another corpse, lying on the floor coldly.

"Wu Jun!?"

Seeing the true face of this corpse, Asami Masumi's eyes widened suddenly.

Lacking the composure he had before, he rushed forward and knelt down in front of the corpse.

Touching the cheek of the corpse with trembling fingers, I couldn't believe it was real for a while.

"Student Chiba, why is Wujun's body here with you?"

"The one brought out from the incineration room in Anbu was almost destroyed."

In order to obtain this corpse, even his own 'son' was thrown into the incinerator.

"However, I remember that Anbu sent by Hokage-sama said that Wu-kun's body was nowhere to be found..."

She really wanted to tell herself that this was just Shiraishi's conspiracy.

However, no matter how you question it, the authenticity of this corpse is genuine.

She immediately realized that the death of her fianc was not as simple as it seemed.

Died in the line of duty while carrying out a confidential mission, even the body is missing, this is just an official statement.

But what about the truth?

Why did Hokage lie to her?

Why don't you tell yourself what the classified mission is about?

Why do you let yourself give up revenge over and over again?

All kinds of questions filled my mind, which was very confusing.

"In order not to let irrelevant people get the secrets of the village, it is natural to carry out some artistic processing on the external rhetoric..."

"But I am Wujun's fiance, not an outsider!"

Facing Asami Masumi's hoarse voice, Shiraishi's tone remained calm:

"Because of this, it is even more necessary to hide it from you, so that you can continue to live here as a Konoha ninja."

Following Shiraishi's words, Asami Masumi's face froze.

"Because it's me...you have to hide it all the more?"

what is this?

Asami Masumi just felt that her brain was not enough.

Seeing the other party's expression, the original idea in my heart was obviously gradually shaken.

And this is exactly the effect Shiraishi wanted.

"Student Asami, as I said before, I want to make a deal with you. But you may still have some doubts about it, and you can't really make up your mind. Then, first let you understand the inside story, and then consider whether you want to make this deal with me."

"What do you need me to do?"

Although she didn't know what deal Baishi wanted to make with her, she had to know the inside story of her fianc's death.

"It's very simple, next you close your eyes, and then I will use some means to tell you the truth."

"Close your eyes?"

Shrinking his body, he obviously resisted this request.

"It's okay if you don't close your eyes, but the effect will be a bit bad."

"abnormal!"

Baishi took a deep breath, and his tone suddenly became heavier.

"Asami-san, I will use a forbidden technique to temporarily connect your spirit with the memory space of Fujisaki Jominin, so that you can intuitively understand everything that happened to Fujisaki Jonobu."

"Is that all?"

There was distrust in his eyes.

"I didn't force you to believe it. Of course, I don't care whether this deal is completed or not, and it doesn't have much impact on me, but you may not be able to get in touch with the truth about the death of Fujisaki Joshin for the rest of your life."

Baishi looked directly at him, calm and calm.

"I see."

Maybe she felt that Baishi did not have any malice towards her, and as Baishi said, if she missed this opportunity, it would be difficult for her to know the truth about her fianc's death.

In any case, you must understand the inside story.

"bring it on."

After saying this, Asami Masumi closed her eyes, knelt and sat in front of the corpse, as if letting Shiraishi do what she wanted, her eyelashes were trembling slightly, but she didn't dare to open them when she wanted to.

Seeing this, Shiraishi didn't say much, and simply stretched out his palm to the classmate in front of him who was already defenseless against him...

"Master Naruto."

A warm and firm voice sounded in a secret room.

In a sealed room, only a few candles illuminate the surrounding darkness.

I saw a young man in the Konoha Jominin uniform, kneeling on one knee facing the third Hokage in front of him, with a respectful gesture of listening to the teachings.

Wu Jun!

Seeing this Konoha Jami who knelt on one knee facing the Third Hokage, Asami Masumi instantly recognized the other party's identity.

It was his fianc Fujisaki Takeshi.

At this moment, the gentleness on his face faded away, and he was full of determination and perseverance that a ninja should have.

However, even though Asami Masumi kept shouting in her heart, her voice could not reach the person who no longer existed.

Because this is just the memory space of Takeshi Fujisaki.

The real Fujisaki Takeshi has already passed away.

"Sorry, Wu, I kept you waiting, and I wasted a little time in holding a meeting."

The voice of Sarutobi Hiruzen from the Third Hokage followed.

"Master Hokage has a lot of things to do every day, and this is something that can't be helped."

"Really? You are still the same... Forget it, now is not the time to talk about these things, have you really thought about it, Wu?"

Hi Zhan's expression instantly became serious, and he stared straight at the young man in front of him, with a trace of hesitation in his eyes.

As if thinking about whether to entrust such an important task to this young man.

"Yes, I have thought it through. The power of the root is growing stronger and stronger. If you want to restore the peace of the village, you must curb their development as soon as possible. Only in this way will the tragedy of Mr. Sakumo not repeat itself, and the relationship with the Uchiha clan can be eased smoothly. With all due respect, the hand of the root is too long, and sooner or later it will cause disaster for the village."

Fujisaki Takeshi analyzed in a calm and composed tone.

"well"

Hirizhan was smoking a cigarette, and started to frown like before.

"In addition, I have successfully connected with the root people. Starting tomorrow, I will be cursed by Danzo... I will collect enough evidence from the root as soon as possible to ensure that it can be used in the next Jonin meeting and wipe out the forces that Danzo belongs to."

"In this case, the sacrifice for you will be too great, and your life may be in danger... Are you really sure? Once you embark on this path, there is no possibility of turning back. Even I, Hokage, don't know what will happen."

"Yes, please leave it to me, Hokage-sama."

Looking at the firm smile on the young man's face, Hirizhan finally sighed and nodded heavily.

"There are a few non-staff personnel in the root department, who are the pawns I placed in the past. Danzo doesn't know about this. You can contact them when you go to the root department and ask them to assist you in your actions. In addition, within a month, if you don't get evidence, you will immediately evacuate the root department. As long as you come to me, even if you are cursed, Danzo will not dare to do anything to you."

Handed a document to Fujisaki Takeshi, which recorded the information of the few non-staff members at the root.

"yes!"

After taking the file, the figure disappeared from the secret room like a distorted black phantom.

"Welcome to join our roots, Fujisaki Jonin, for the sake of Danzo-sama and Konoha's great cause, you will feel sincerely honored for today's choice!"

A root ninja wearing a mask painted with thick and weird oil paint, exuding a cold and dark atmosphere all over his body, stood in an aisle that criss-crossed in mid-air, and met Takeshi Fujisaki, a new member of the ninja.

"I heard that Fujisaki is good at illusion and assassination, then, this guy, I will leave it to you to solve it."

The root ninja handed over a wanted warrant, which showed an level wanted criminal, a high-level ninja.

"Illusion Art of Darkness!"

Endless darkness enveloped the day, dyeing the forest into pitch black.

The defected ninja shrouded in darkness didn't even see a figure, only a blade of light flashed through the darkness, and then his neck felt cold, warm blood spurted out, and he fell to the ground.

"Next, Lord Danzo will interview you in person. Although you haven't joined for a long time, you are excellent in assassination. Danzo has always appreciated geniuses. In such a short period of time, you have been interviewed twice by Lord Danzo. You are really a formidable guy."

"We are the root of Konoha, and we are also the darkness of Konoha. The roots can handle things that Hokage is inconvenient to handle, and we can do things that Hokage cannot do. But one day, even if we are in the dark, we will find fire in the darkness, become the light that bathes the village, and drive the weak conservatives out of power!"

Danzo's resounding voice is like ice that will never melt for thousands of years, cold, domineering, and firm.

His surroundings were shrouded in darkness. At this moment, Asami Masumi, who was watching as a third party, even though she knew it was a memory, was still trembling because of the darkness on this man.

Is her fianc going to fight wits and courage with such a dangerous person in the enemy's base camp?

It's too messy!

The memory at the root is dark and depressing.

There are endless dirty jobs every day, and endless enemies to kill every day.

Even if it is only the tip of the iceberg presented, it is enough to make people feel frightened.

Unknowingly, Takeshi Fujisaki has lived here for more than half a month.

Everyday job is to kill.

Some are spies from other villages, and some are ninjas from their own villages, blocking their progress.

As time passed step by step, Takeshi Fujisaki knew that the deadline for the mission was approaching. If he did nothing, this mission could only be treated as a failure.

And the next time you want to touch the roots, it won't be so easy.

With this adventurous idea, in Asami Masumi's perspective, Takeshi Fujisaki created a shadow clone to deal with the root's murder test, while the main body used illusion to hide its own figure, shield its own chakra, sneak into the root's data room, and collect evidence.

Go all the way to the room where Genbu hides the confidential information, where you must stun the Root guard guarding the gate.

Without hesitation.

"Illusion Art of Darkness!"

"who!?"

There was darkness in front of him, and the root ninja guarding the gate immediately sensed someone intruding.

Before they could make another move, they immediately fell silent as the blade cut their throats.

Darkness removed.

Takeshi Fujisaki was holding a blood-stained ninja sword, and on both sides were fallen root ninjas. The neck was cut open, and blood sprayed on the floor and wall beside him, all of them were killed by one knife.

In the data room, there is Takeshi Fujisaki searching for various intelligence materials.

In it, there are also hidden secrets that cannot be revealed at the root.

As the darkest organization in Anbu, this organization has done many unknown things behind the back of Hokage.

What Takeshi Fujisaki wants to find is these secrets that can prove the harmfulness of the roots.

Strive to seize the opportunity in the Jonin meeting in the near future, so as to eliminate the root threat to Naruto.

In the process of rummaging, Takeshi Fujisaki scanned the above information at a glance, the more he read, the more cold sweat on his face.

It's not nervous, but because every event recorded above has a huge impact.

And it also involves the ninja clan with deep-rooted forces.

Horrified by Danzo's secret plan.

But it also means that if all these things are revealed, the roots will be severely damaged.

Stuffed the documents and scrolls that recorded intelligence data into the backpack that he carried with him.

At the end, there was one scroll left, so I had to stuff it in my ninja bag and carry it close to my body.

"Here! Catch him!"

In the corridor outside the reference room, there was the sound of running footsteps.

Takeshi Fujisaki showed no signs of fear, he formed seals with his hands, spreading the darkness out, and the root ninja who rushed in could only feel the darkness in front of his eyes.

Immediately there was a scream, and the crowd fell into chaos.

Takeshi Fujisaki frowned slightly, the feel of the blade cutting into the flesh was wrong, and it did not cause fatal injuries to these root ninjas.

However, the point is not to deal with these root ninjas, he has to bring these secrets to Hokage.

So, regardless of these injuries, root ninjas in chaos in the dark.

Now it is a race against time to escape, and no time can be wasted.

Every route here has already been explored clearly with the help of Hokage's arrangement.

Can't forcefully break into the main entrance at the root, there are many people there, with his strength, he can't forcefully break through, and he will be caught in all likelihood.

Can only leave from the remote, less guarded side door.

Konoha Northwest Forest.

Following a bang explosion, amidst the screams of the root ninja, Fujisaki Takeshi rolled out of the root base covered in blood.

Because this side door was thickened by various techniques, it could only be forced open in such a rough way. In this way, it was inevitable that he would also be involved in danger and cause injuries.

"Ahem!"

Coughed twice violently, Takeshi Fujisaki quickly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and while running towards the west, while the ninja bones were about to fall apart, he put his fingers in his mouth and whistled.

A sound of eagle chirping resounded from the sky.

That is the exclusive Naruto Ninja Hawk, and its flying speed is faster than that of Jonin when he sprints at full speed.

Seeing the messenger eagle flying to a certain height, General Fujisaki took off the backpack full of documents and scrolls from his back, and threw it into the sky in one go.

The Messenger Eagle was as fast as lightning, grabbed the backpack with its claws, flew towards the sky, disappeared in the blink of an eye, and flew to the Hokage Building.

"Successful!"

Seeing the Messenger Eagle leave, within a minute of this distance, you can fly to the location of the Hokage building, and safely deliver these secrets to Hokage.

Takeshi Fujisaki couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, showing a embarrassed smile.

"Next..."

Takeshi Fujisaki was also preparing to leave, and began to evacuate from here, headed to the Hokage Building, and joined Hokage.

Suddenly, when he just took a step, there was a numbness in his tongue, and then quickly spread throughout his body, and his body fell straight, unable to move.

"Curse... seal..."

It was difficult to spit out these two words from his mouth, and realizing something, Fujisaki Takeshi's face was covered with nervous cold sweat, his eyes widened and he looked in one direction.

A figure stood there.

Shimura Danzo!

"Danzo-sama, I'm sorry, but I couldn't stop that ninja eagle."

A root ninja in a black hooded coat and sunglasses came to Danzo.

Oil girl Ryoma.

Takeshi Fujisaki recognized the identity of this root ninja at once, which is equivalent to Danzo's left and right hands, and has a high weight in the root, second only to Danzo.

Danzo couldn't see any joy or anger on his face, he just pointed at Takeshi Fujisaki who fell on the ground and couldn't move:

"Bring him back, I will negotiate with Ri Zhan personally!"

I won!

Although he didn't say it clearly, Takeshi Fujisaki who woke up from the dark and damp dungeon said so on his face.

Even though he was in jail, he had a happy smile on his face, and even laughed heartily under the surprised gaze of the root ninja guarding him.

Although he was arrested and imprisoned by the root people, the most important thing is that most of the criminal evidence information of the roots flowed into Hokage.

As long as those criminal evidences are used well, it will be enough to make the roots pay a terrible price, and the roots will never recover.

When those criminal evidences were obtained by Hokage, Root completely fell into a passive state.

Soon, the roots will be severely suppressed by Hokage, and he, a Jonin, will also be rescued.

From his face, there is no worry about his own fate and future, but only a calm and firm confident smile.

In the current situation, the pain is only temporary, and the victory is coming.

Wait for me, Masumi! I can see you soon!

Thinking of the girl who is still waiting for her return, who is her fiance and the love of her life, the smile on her face can't help but turn gentle.

At this moment, a figure stood outside the railing of the cell.

Oil girl Ryoma.

The two root ninjas who had been guarding him had disappeared.

Facing this big man at the root, except for Danzo, who can be regarded as covering the sky with one hand, Takeshi Fujisaki showed no timidity on his face.

Even if the whole body is drugged, the body is soft, there is no strength to resist, and ninjutsu cannot be used, but in the eyes of uninformed people, the winner seems to be him, not the oily girl Ryoma standing outside the cell.

"What, Mr. Ryoma, are you here to let me out? What a pity, I won this battle."

Fujisaki Takeshi asked with a smile.

Responding to Takeshi Fujisaki's laughing question, Ryoma's expression did not change. She just took out a notice and read it in cold and emotionless words:

"I hereby criticize Konoha Kamishinobu Fujisaki for illegally stealing Konoha secrets in recent days, and selling them to the enemy country for his own profit, causing huge losses to Konoha, and now he is being arrested for the crime of collaborating with the enemy and traitorous country. However, due to the bad impact of this matter, the whole village will not be notified. Three days later, the root will handle it on its behalf and execute it in secret!"

The smile on Fujisaki Takeshi's face froze instantly.

The oil girl Ryoma ignored the other party's state of mind at this time, threw the document casually, and floated into the cell lightly, and landed in front of Takeshi Fujisaki.

The exclusive seal that belongs to Hokage above is extremely eye-catching.
