She was almost killed by a wandering ninja today!
Xuan Ye, however, remained as nonchalant as ever.
along the way.
The group also encountered villagers who had been attacked, with corpses scattered everywhere, including children, which greatly shocked and traumatized them.
"Why is this happening?" Sarutobi Taro stared at everything in disbelief!
He had lived and grown up in Konoha Village since birth and rarely went out, so he had never witnessed this cruel scene. Now it was as if his worldview was being reshaped!
Nami was also shocked, and even almost vomited.
This mission had a profound impact on them!
One day later.
The group then encountered another group of wandering ninjas.
The opponent is not strong.
Therefore, Kakashi instructed the two to take the initiative again.
Meanwhile, he and Xuan Ye were secretly keeping an eye on things.
To avoid any accidents.
The opponent was not strong, and although Sarutobi Taro suppressed his fear, he still couldn't bring himself to kill him!
But remembering how the wandering ninja almost killed Nami yesterday, he finally hardened his heart and plunged the dagger in his hand into the other's heart, while roaring angrily!
"Ah! Why would you do such a thing!"
Why?!
After venting his anger with a roar, Sarutobi Taro collapsed heavily to the ground. This was his first time killing someone, and he was under a lot of pressure. After all, not everyone could be as calm and composed as Genba, as if he were a robot without any emotions!
Nami also made up her mind and killed a rogue ninja!
The two have taken a crucial first step!
The growth of a ninja.
It is always accompanied by the baptism of blood and fire.
Just as everyone was about to leave.
A figure emerged from the dense forest that Xuan Ye hadn't expected!
It's Kakuzu!
How did he end up here, coming all the way from the capital of the Land of Fire?
After he appeared, he first took out a small notebook, then looked it over in front of everyone, and finally stopped in front of Xuan Ye, saying, "We seem to have met before, but why is your bounty only worth 500 million taels? According to my understanding, your strength should be worth more than 2000 million taels. It's not worth it!"
Kakuzu muttered to himself!
Upon hearing the other party's words, Xuan Ye hurriedly asked, "Brother Jiao, are you saying that someone has put a 500 million tael bounty on my head in the black market?!"
"By the way, who put a bounty on me?" Xuan Ye was very curious; who could be so generous as to offer such a large reward?
Could they be members of the "switching dorm" clan? The other party shouldn't know that they killed Koharu Tsubame.
Could it be Hiruzen Sarutobi? That shouldn't be possible!
The most likely candidate is Kazuma, one of the twelve guardian ninja of the Land of Fire's capital, since Genba killed Sugimoto Mia and Inoue Taiga, both guardian ninja!
Kakuzu glanced at Genye and said slowly, "I, Kakuzu, am a person who abides by the rules of the industry. I will not easily tell you my employer's information, otherwise it would break my rules and ruin my reputation."
"However, that employer is really too stingy. I want you to live a little longer. When your head is worth more than 3000 million, I will kill you. So I hope you don't die in the meantime!"
Then.
Kakuzu used his feet to write the three characters "Guardian Shinobi" on the ground.
This is pretty much what Gen Ye guessed!
It turns out that Ma and the others were plotting revenge and had even placed an order on the black market.
All right.
Wait until some time later.
I need to go to the capital of the Land of Fire again.
They will eliminate Kazuma and others, as well as the Toyotomi clan.
This will consolidate the Uchiha clan's power in the casino!
Seeing Kakuzu walking so fast, Genye asked, "Brother Kakuzu, why are you running so fast?"
"Two guys have been chasing me, trying to get me to join their organization. I can't beat them in a fight, so I can't waste my breath on them. I need to get away from them!"
Upon hearing these words...
Xuan Ye's brows furrowed.
They couldn't even beat Kakuzu.
It must be the Akatsuki organization.
Moreover, Shisui was probably investigating information about the Akatsuki organization at that moment.
I had no idea that "Shisui the Flicker" would have such an encounter with the Akatsuki.
After Kakuzu left, Kakashi breathed a heavy sigh of relief. The pressure that the other party had put on him was simply too great!

Before reaching the location for the hostage exchange.
Kakashi didn't let Sarutobi Taro and Hinata Nami go with him, but instead had them hide somewhere.
During the hostage exchange.
Various unexpected situations may arise.
Currently, both of them are relatively weak.
It's best not to show your face for now.
As for Genba, Kakashi was very relieved, after all, the former's strength was no weaker than his own, and he also had the Sharingan and Wood Release.
Thinking about this, Kakashi realized he was envious...
They were escorting Troy.
Kakashi and Genba finally arrived at the agreed location.
This is a vast, flat area.
The surroundings were completely silent at that moment.
Kakashi walked forward and said indifferently, "We've arrived!"
After the voice faded, several people emerged from the hillside. Leading them was a young woman with beige hair. She was very beautiful, and her cold face gave her a touch of heroism.
The two-tailed jinchūriki Yukito!
When Kakashi saw Yugito appear in his field of vision, his pupils suddenly contracted. Sending out a Jinchuriki just to exchange hostages, the Hidden Cloud Village seems to be making a big move.
Kakashi sensed a conspiracy in it.
This hostage exchange is probably not as simple as it seems!
"Now that you're here, let's confirm the hostages' identities first!" Yugito said condescendingly, with an arrogant tone.
According to information provided by Konoha's higher-ups, she already knew that Genba was the user of the Wood Release bloodline limit. Thinking back to the last time she fell into the opponent's trap and was defeated by him, an inexplicable anger welled up inside her!
Exchange hostages.
First, you need to verify the other party's identity.
After all, the opponent might use a sophisticated substitution technique.
"Xuan Ye, go and confirm the hostages!" Kakashi instructed Xuan Ye, who possessed a pure Sharingan and was more likely to see whether the other party was using a transformation technique to disguise themselves!
“Alright!” Xuan Ye nodded and walked expressionlessly to the hostages from Konoha on the other side. He activated his crimson Sharingan and carefully observed them, finding nothing unusual about the five.
They are not ninjas from Kumogakure who use the Substitution Technique!
"It's those little Uchiha bastards! You're too slow, making us suffer for several more days at the hands of the Hidden Cloud Village!" said one of the five, who seemed to be the leader, his face somewhat gloomy.
Xuan Ye said "Oh," and then a hard slap landed on his face, making a "smack" sound.
The other person's cheeks instantly turned red.
I came here out of kindness to save you.
Is this the face you're showing me?
I don't care about you!
"You little bastard from the Uchiha clan, you're asking for death!" The one who was beaten, who was the ringleader, was named Shimura Hiroshi, and his eyes were extremely vicious.
"Looking for death?" Upon hearing this, Xuan Ye replied seriously, "I'm so much younger than you, I'll definitely live longer than you. Don't worry, even if you die, I'll still be alive!"
“You…” Shimura Hiroshi blushed red after being refuted by Genba’s words!
But it wasn't a good time to make a move. Shimura Hiroshi gritted his teeth; he wouldn't let this go!
Just then.
The inspection of the Hidden Cloud Village has also been completed.
It's confirmed that Troy was indeed him!
So they began exchanging hostages.
The whole process was also very easy.
When Troy returned to the Cloud Village group, Yugito looked at Genba with a cold smile and said, "Wood Release boy, it seems we need to settle our score from before. I won't let you leave so easily!"
As Yugito waved his hand, more than twenty figures emerged from the dense forest. They were all at least Chunin-level, and there were quite a few Jonin as well.
Yukito stared at Gen-ye and continued, "You made me suffer a lot in the last war, and I won't let you off easily today!"
“Except for this boy, all of you may leave!” she said coldly, pointing at Xuan Ye.
"Thank you, Lord Yukito!" Upon hearing this, Shimura and his companions were overjoyed and left without waiting.
Whether Gen-ye lives or dies is none of his business.
However, he has been imprisoned by the Hidden Cloud Village for some time.
Now you are free.
They had no desire to return to the dark and damp prison of Kumogakure.
Xuan Ye frowned!
When Genba fought Yugito before, he was wearing a black cat mask. How did the other party know his identity?
no doubt.
Genba was betrayed by the Konoha leadership!
"Our Hokage and your Raikage made an agreement to exchange hostages. How can you break the agreement? Aren't you afraid of damaging the reputation of your Hidden Cloud Village?!" Kakashi questioned angrily.
Yugito glanced at Kakashi and said coldly, "If you want to break the agreement, we in Kumogakure will not let you leave. But this boy is a sacrifice in this hostage exchange. Neither Konoha nor we in Kumogakure want him to exist!"
Do you understand?
Yukito has already made it very clear.
Even the higher-ups of Kumogakure and Konoha don't want him to live!
This is the unspoken understanding between the two sides' top leaders.
Yugito said, "Kakashi, I'm giving you a chance. Leave now, or you won't be able to leave later!"
Kakashi glanced at Xuan Ye, whose expression was calm, and said in a firm voice, "I will never abandon my student, not even if it means death!"
Kakashi didn't like Genba, but he was Genba's Jonin leader, meaning he was Genba's teacher.
He couldn't bring himself to abandon his disciples and flee alone.
