Chapter 180: Who was Kidding
When Konan finished off the few fish that escaped the net and rushed back, Yasuo had already disappeared.
Only Biwa Juzou was still standing there, looking at the sky with lifeless eyes, like a salted fish that had lost its dream.
Stepping on the ice crystals that had not completely melted on the ground, Konan frowned.
The scene before her did not seem like he had suddenly encountered an enemy. Instead, it was like the two of them were fighting again.
"What happened when I wasn't around?"
When Biwa Juzou saw that Konan had returned, he seemed to have thought of something. There was a glimmer of light in his eyes. He immediately sat up, ignoring the wounds on his body that had reopened and the blood that flowed out. He said unwillingly, "That bastard Yasuo suddenly attacked me after you left! He even stole my Kubikirib?ch?! The organization must seek justice for me."
"..."
Konan took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. "Why did he steal your sword?"
Biwa Juzou stammered, but he still spoke the truth.
"In other words, Yasuo only took the reward you promised him, and after beating you up, he spared your life?"
Faced with Konan's gaze as if she was looking at a retard, Biwa Juzou nodded his head unwillingly. Everything that had happened today was too humiliating for him!
After figuring everything out and ensuring that Yasuo did not defect from the organization, Konan heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she said with a serious expression, "Sorry, the organization can't help you. This is your private matter. Moreover, since Yasuo did not kill you directly, it proves that he has no intention of betraying the organization. So, you can only blame yourself if you want to blame someone."
Even his own weapon could not be defended. Akatsuki did not need such trash!
Konan had already sentenced Biwa Juzou to death in her heart, and it was estimated that there would be someone stronger to replace him sooner or later.
Not to mention that without Kubikirib?ch?, this guy's strength would drop by at least half!
Biwa Juzou was anxious, "I have worked hard for the organization! I have shed blood for the organization! I suffered so many injuries in order to complete the mission issued by the organization, and that bastard took advantage of the opportunity to sneak attack me!"
Konan looked at him coldly, "These words should be said to the leader after you recover."
After cleaning up the battlefield, Konan directly grabbed the seriously injured Biwa Juzou and flew away with a cold face.
Farewell, my youth!
Farewell, my Kubikirib?ch?!
A drop of crystal tears streaked across Biwa Juzou's face, then fell from the sky to the earth. That was his lost youth.
.........
On the other side, after the Aoba ran far away, he immediately took out a storage scroll that was especially used to store weapons from his storage bag. Then, he sealed the washed Kubikirib?ch? in the scroll and carefully put it away.
After communicating with Prince, who was disguised as himself, he first put [Eye Of Perception] down to check his surroundings.
After making sure that there was no one nearby, he returned to his original appearance.
When Prince found an excuse to leave everyone's line of sight, [Civet Cat For Prince] instantly moved!
Aoba only felt that his line of sight was distorted for a moment, and then he saw a different scene.
What a convenient ability!
Unfortunately, the cooldown time is too long and can only be used once a day.
I have to pay special attention to the safety of the surrounding environment. Otherwise, any tiger or bear can tear 'Prince' into pieces.
After exchanging space positions, Aoba immediately recalled 'Prince'.
Three seconds of waiting seemed to be as long as a century!
When 'Prince' was finally successfully and safely recalled, he let out a breath of relief. This time, he finally didn't take it off.
….
When he returned to the team, no one noticed anything wrong.
At this time, Itachi and the others had already dealt with all the tails that had followed them. All of them were hiding in a cave, preparing to hide temporarily.
With Aoba's understanding of Mikawa-sensei, he would not go anywhere without three days!
It was a competition of patience!
Fortunately, Mikawa had already established his authority, and no one dared to disobey him. In addition to the supplies they had purchased before, it was enough for them to hide here for a few days to make plans.
And this time, Aoba did not have any objections.
Because when he was cleaning up the battlefield, he found two scrolls from these Kumogakure Ninjas.
One of them described in detail all the battle information of Mikawa's squad in the initial ambush in the country of grass.
When he saw this thing, he was sure that these Kumogakure Ninjas were coming for them!
As for the other scroll, it confirmed his point of view!
Although he did not know how the good tea leaves had become explosive talismans, this was clearly not a misunderstanding but a result of being induced.
Either someone wanted to use Mikawa's class as bait, secretly setting up a trap only to wait for the enemy to sneak in.
Or someone wanted to use Kumogakure to kill them!
If it were the former, Kumogakure ninjas should have already been eliminated.
However, he did not see any' reinforcements '!
[Eye Of Perception] also did not find any abnormalities!
And if it was the former, there were too many loopholes.
How did Kumogakure's people know they would definitely take this route and not go directly to the Land of Iron?
Even if Konoha did not tell them the real situation before, it was time for someone to speak up now, right?
But there was nothing!
Then there was only the second possibility left.
Someone had revealed their whereabouts and wanted to use Kumogakure to kill them!
With such a sinister and familiar method to kill people, as well as those who had the ability to set up this trap, Aoba was the first to think of the legendary Danzo!
Under normal circumstances, it would be right to give the blame to Danzo!
There was no other way. Many people in the original work were killed by Danzo in such a way, including that silly child Yahiko.
Even the famous Salamander, Hanzo, had been toyed with by Danzo in a few words. Those hotheads of Kumogakure were probably given to him for nothing!
But the real reason was that after Sarutobi reminded him to be careful, he had always been too calm!
It was, even so, calm that it made people a little flustered!
There were several times when he used Eye of Perception to find that there were people around his home staring at him. He had initially thought that they were Anbu's people.
But now, it was very likely that the person following them for a while was the root!
With the combination of the two, there was no doubt that Danzo was the most suspicious person.
Aoba immediately smiled. It seemed that the big gift he had prepared for Danzo was going to be sent out in advance.
