Naruto: Konoha’s Kanpu

Chapter 876: Long Story

Chapter 876: Long Story

Konoha’s Gate.

After the Anbu’s Shinobi and the Military Police Force’s members withdraw, this place once again became the territory of Konoha's gatekeepers, Kotetsu and Izumo.

At this time, as the sky gradually darkened, the number of pedestrians entering and leaving the gate gradually decreased, and the two gatekeepers leaned against each other, discussing the major event of the cooperation between the Anbu and the Military Police Force joint force to capture a spy.

“The must have obtained some important intelligence from the village, otherwise, the Anbu and the Military Police Force wouldn't have searched for seven days without stopping.” Kotetsu said solemnly.

“It's a pity we still didn't find him in the end.” Izumo said with some regret.

Of course, they were still unaware of the intelligence regarding Hayate being captured by the spy.

The two chatted and talked about the last time Uchiha ?madara used Sharingan to invade the village, and they couldn’t help feeling the situation of Shinobi World.

First, Kumogakure occupied Yugakure and deployed troops to the border of the Land of Fire. Then, one after another, incidents of spy infiltration occurred in Konoha, indicating a trend of an imminent war.

‘Such troublesome times!’

As they were discussing the affairs of the country and the people, a tall and thin figure approached from a distance.

“Hey, that person looks somewhat familiar.” Kotetsu said hesitantly.

“I think so too.”

Izumo took a few steps forward and vaguely saw the person's face, “It seems to be Kanp?.”

“What do you mean seems? It's me!” When Kanp? saw the two of them, he immediately flickered to in front of them.

“Kanp?, it's really you. Why have you lost so much weight?” Kotetsu exclaimed in surprise.

‘Naturally, you'd lose weight if you were bedridden for four months…’ Kanp? sighed: “I was beaten up by the society.”

“Kanp?, what's wrong with your eyes?” Izumo stared at Kanp?'s eyes in surprise.

Those pupils, which seemed to flicker with a deep blue light, gave them a mysterious and vast feeling, as if they were facing the universe!

“Ah, children, long stories are best told another time. I'll tell you when I have the chance. I need to see Hokage-sama first.” Kanp?, who turned on Tenseigan, indicated that he didn't want to talk to these extras and walked past them towards the Hokage Tower.

“Kanp?, let's have supper together tonight.” Kotetsu shouted.

“Sure thing!”

……

When Kanp? arrived at the Hokage Tower, the sky was already dim, and most people had finished work, but the Hokage's Office was still brightly lit.

‘As expected of the best NPC of the year.’

Kanp? admired inexplicably, and just as he was about to go upstairs, he saw two figures approaching.

“Kanp??!”

Anbu Commander, Eagle and Military Police Force’s Captain, Kakashi stared at Kanp? in astonishment, their faces full of disbelief.

‘Wasn't Kanp? captured by Abyss?’

‘How did he come back?’

‘Did Abyss let him go?’

‘And what happened with his eyes?’

Eagle and Kakashi were full of questions in their hearts.

“Yo, long time no see!” Kanp? said with a smile, “Why do you guys look like you've seen a ghost?”

“Then, are you a person or a ghost?” Kakashi rolled his eye impatiently.

“Kanp?, weren't you captured by Abyss?” Eagle asked aloud.

“How did you know?” A flash of surprise crossed Kanp?'s face, then he quickly concealed it, showing the self-training of an excellent actor.

“After you left half a year ago, Abyss sent someone to sneak into the Anbu’s Headquarters and look at your files.” Eagle said solemnly.

Kanp? was shocked and pointed at him in disbelief: “I knew there was something fishy when I was captured out of nowhere. So it was…”

“Sorry.” Eagle looked ashamed and couldn't meet Kanp?'s eyes.

After all, if it weren’t for the Anbu’s Headquarters being infiltrated and his files being looked at, Kanp?'s identity as a double agent wouldn't have been completely exposed.

“Kanp?, how did you come back?” Kakashi asked solemnly.

“I'm going to see Hokage-sama first.” Hanfeng said, “Why don't you guys come with me?”

It’s the same old nonsense, so Kanp? didn't feel like repeating himself.

After all, he still had some dignity.

Eagle and Kakashi nodded, then followed Kanp? to the Hokage's Office.

Then, Kakashi knocked on the door and said that there was an important news to report.

Minato was somewhat puzzled, ‘Kakashi had just left, but there was important intelligence to report? Is it because there is news about Hayate?’

He hurriedly let Kakashi in, but when he looked up, Minato was dumbfounded: “Kanp??!”

“Hokage-sama, I… I’m back.” Kanp? showed an expression of having narrowly escaped death.

He practiced this expression many times during his deep-sea training, and it’s absolutely outshining any Oscar-winning performance!

Although this expression seemed a bit fake to Eagle and Kakashi.

“That's great, Kanp?, it's really great that you're safe!” Minato gave him a big hug, then noticed something was off, “Kanp?, why have you lost so much weight, and what's wrong with your eyes? “

Kanp? bitterly said: “Ah, this thing, really is a long story.”

“Then let's start from the beginning.” Kakashi said.

Kanp? nodded, then reminisced: “This thing goes back to when I was ordered to join Abyss many years ago…”

Hearing this, Kakashi's face twitched: “You don't have to start from so early.”

‘Always nitpicking…’ Kanp? looked at Kakashi with displeasure.

Kakashi also gave Kanp? a dead fish stare.

“Well, Kakashi, say a few less words.” Minato openly took sides.

Kakashi could only sigh weakly at this.

“Half a year ago, after I received a notification from Tenk? I left the village to meet him. As a result, he told me that the leader of Abyss wanted to see me. At that time, I was eager to know the identity of the leader of Abyss, so I agreed without much thought, even using the Flying Thunder God to rush with him. Afterwards, we went out to sea, towards…”

“The Land of Whirlpools!”

Kakashi interrupted, “After you left, Guy, Itachi and I went to the Land of Whirlpools to find you, and there, we discovered traces of your battle.”

‘It turns out that my Kusanagi Sword was taken by you.’

When Kanp? returned, he specifically went to the Land of Whirlpools, only to find that his Kusanagi Sword was taken away. He didn’t expect it being taken by Kakashi.

So Kanp? reached out expressionlessly: “Give it back to me.”

“Huh?” Kakashi was taken aback.

“My sword!” Kanp? exclaimed.

“What sword?” Kakashi looked puzzled.

“Kusanagi Sword!”

“What kind of sword?”

“Kusanagi Sword!!”

“What kind of sword?”

“Kusanagi Sword!”

“What kind of sword?”

“Kusanagi Sword!”

“What kind of sword?”

“Kusa!!” Kanp? was furious, rolling up his sleeves as if ready to fight.

Kakashi took out a sealing scroll after playing enough, forming a hand seal to retrieve the sword from inside.

‘My treasure…’ Kanp? took it with one hand, gently caressing it.

“Okay, stop touching it, continue quickly.” Kakashi said impatiently.

Kanp? deliberately dragged on, then finally continued: “After arriving at the Land of Whirlpools, a Wood Release Shinobi who called himself Senju Tathagata attacked me. I didn't know if he was the leader of Abyss, but we fought for two days and two nights. In the end, due to my negligence, I lost and was captured.”

“And then?” Minato asked nervously.

“After that, I passed out. When I woke up, I found myself tied to an operating table, unable to see anything with my eyes, and then someone injected something into my body every day.” Kanp? said expressionlessly.

‘Live experiments?’

Minato, Eagle and Kakashi’s hearts shivered.

“And it went on like this for I don't know how long. One day, I found my eyes suddenly sore. After four or five times, my eyes turned out like this.” Kanp? gently touched his eye sockets.

Minato and the others exchanged glances.

Eagle then asked puzzledly: “Then what? Did Abyss just let you go like that?”

Kanp? shook his head: “They wanted to dig out my eyes, but when I could see again, I gained powerful strength!”

“Powerful strength?” Kakashi looked at his eyes, then hesitantly said, “Are these eyes some kind of Kekkei Genkai like Sharingan?”

Kanp? shook his head: “I don’t know, all I know is that those people called these eyes: Tensigan!”
