In a hidden valley.
"Aromatic Phosphorus, check if anyone is chasing us." Aoyama was sitting cross-legged on a rock, recovering his stamina. After the battle, he had been running all the way, so he was tired.
"Kagura's Eye."
Aromatic Phosphorus closed her eyes and quickly made hand seals. She released her perception and carefully checked the surroundings before opening her eyes. "Aoyama -sama, there are no traces of anyone chasing us. There are no Chakra fluctuations within a five-kilometer radius."
In the fierce battle just now, both Haku and Aromatic Phosphorus had exhausted their Chakra. But now, Aromatic Phosphorus had recovered more than half of her strength and could use Kagura's Eye without any problem. However, Haku was still very weak and leaned against the wall to rest.
This showed that the Uzumaki's amazing vitality and Chakra, coupled with their terrifying recovery ability, were really enviable.
"Azu, what orders does Danzō -sensei have?" Aoyama looked at Azu who was sitting on a rock meticulously. After not seeing her for a few months, Azu's beautiful purple eyes were still shining.
"Danzō -sama didn't say anything. He only told us to exchange information regularly to maintain the village's trust." Azu replied softly.
Aoyama wasn't surprised by this answer. The job of a spy was very risky. Not only was there the danger of being exposed, but there were also a lot of traitors. Danzō was an expert in underground activities, so he knew the dangers of being a spy very well. It was normal for him to give such instructions.
"I understand. You will follow me from now on. It just so happens that I lack manpower in Orochi Maru. With your help, it will be much easier." Aoyama looked around. Haku, Azu, Aromatic Phosphorus, and Natsume, a total of four people.
"Then, Aoyama -sama, why did you leave the village? And joining Orochi Maru shouldn't be just to be a spy, right? "Haku blinked and stared at Aoyama.
"It's very simple. It's just to obtain enough power. The ninja world itself is a world where the value is measured by strength. The so-called peace is maintained by absolute power. Just like what sensei said, in this world, words alone won't work."
"I will control my own destiny. I won't pin my hopes on others." Tsukuyomi clenched her fists. Only Tsukuyomi herself knew the meaning of the last sentence. The Shinobi World is about to face a catastrophe. Uchiha Obito, Uchiha Madara, and Otsutsuki Kaguya.
According to the memory of his previous life, Naruto and Sasuke finally defeated and sealed Kaguya, but Aoyama didn't dare to take the risk. Naruto and Sasuke's journey was too full of twists and turns. As long as there was a slight deviation, it was very likely that everything would be different.
If Tsukuyomi didn't have Hyorinmaru, he wouldn't have the talent for Ninjutsu, then he would've stayed in Konoha and pinned his hopes on the Child of Destiny. However, there was no 'if', Tsukuyomi had the ability to control his own destiny, so he wasn't willing to be as ordinary as he was in his previous life.
"So, Orochi Maru's strength is necessary for me. This is my purpose. Being a spy is just a title. Who let Orochi Maru's reputation be so bad? I don't plan to stay with him until the end. " Yue Hua took the opportunity to tell Bai and the others the truth. Only by making things clear could she better understand her position.
"When we get to Orochi Maru, what do we need to do?" Haku asked again.
"Don't worry about anything. I will deal with Orochi Maru. You just need to listen to my orders." Aoyama said indifferently. "Now, hurry up and recover your Stamina. You still need to be careful of the village's people."
Haku, Azuz, Natsume, and Aromatic Phosphorus were relieved after listening to Aoyama's explanation. Azuz and Natsume were born and raised in Kiba. Azuz received Root's education, so her loyalty to Kiba was unquestionable. Natsume also had deep feelings for the village.
Although Haku and Aromatic Phosphorus didn't stay in Kiba for long, the peaceful atmosphere of Kiba was far better than the other villages, so they had a very good impression of Kiba.
Kiba Village.
Hokage Building, Hokage's office.
The Fifth Hokage, Tsunade, put her hands on the table and stared at Shikamaru standing in front of her.
"Mission failed?" Tsunade's tone was very dull.
"I'm sorry, Hokage-sama. Because of my poor command, the mission failed completely. Sasuke Uchiha didn't chase back, but three people in the team followed Tsuka Aoyama and defected." Shikamaru lowered his head. This mission was a complete fiasco. Shikamaru, who had always been lazy, was also quite shocked.
"In the end, Tsuka Aoyama intervened and caused the mission to fail?" Tsunade leaned on the chair and stretched her sore shoulders.
Shikamaru nodded. The more he thought about Aoyama's matter, the more he felt that something was wrong. He felt that something was wrong with Aoyama's defection from the bottom of his heart, but he couldn't get any useful information from Shihisa.
"Okay, I got it. You can go down and rest well for two days. There will be a new mission soon. Recently, there are a lot of missions in the village that need you brats to do!" Tsunade waved her hand to chase him away.
Shikamaru opened his mouth and wanted to ask about Aoyama's matter, but after thinking about it, he gave up. Even if there was something fishy, it wasn't something that a Genin like him could know.
With a stomach full of questions, Shikamaru left the Hokage Building and went straight to Kiba Hospital. Although Naruto and Xiao Li weren't seriously injured, for the sake of insurance, they were still hospitalized to recuperate.
"Shizune, go and ask the two Hokage consultants to come over …" After Shikamaru left, Tsunade ordered with a sharp tone.
"No need to trouble yourself, we are already here." Mito Menitis pushed the door and entered. Behind him was Koharu and Danzō, the big boss with a black face. The Anbu who was guarding in the dark couldn't help but be speechless. This brother has never stopped coming to the Hokage's office.
"You guys came so fast." Tsunade sarcastically said. The relationship between the two Hokage consultants and Tsunade, the Fifth Hokage, was complicated, and they didn't get along very well.
Although when Tsunade became the Fifth Hokage, the two consultants expressed their support, but after some ideological conflicts, Tsunade didn't like this group of lifeless old people, and these old people were not completely at ease with Tsunade's overly straightforward temperament.
In particular, Tsunade still hasn't fully mastered the Anbu left by the Three Generations, not to mention the control of the village is completely not comparable to the Three Generations of Hokage. Danzō is one of them, and the two Hokage consultants turned a blind eye to it. How can they make Tsunade happy?
"Tsunade, you don't need to say this, everything we do is to protect Kiba." Koharu sat on the sofa and slowly said, not angry because of Tsunade's sarcasm.
"Humph!" Tsunade snorted coldly, she hated this kind of rhetoric, but she didn't want to fight this meaningless war of words, and immediately said: "What is going on with Tsuka Aoyama? The Anbu you recommended actually defected to the enemy? But I, the Hokage, was kept in the dark, I need an explanation. "
