Chapter 337
Facing Mizuki's questioning, Terai, who was indifferent, replied calmly: "You don't need to know about our actions. Root is only responsible to Lord Danzo, and other people have no right to govern us."
"Hokage can't control you?"
"If Tsunade-sama is here, we will naturally report the truth!"
"That is to say, even Hokage doesn't know what you are going to do?"
Terai really couldn't deny Mizuki's aggressive question, so he could only keep silent.
"It seems that you don't obey Hokage, but just obey the orders of Elder Danzo!"
The questioning step by step has aroused the dissatisfaction of many "root" ninjas.
"What? Was it right? Angry?"
Terai waved his hand to stop his subordinate who was about to move.
"Shallow words will not interfere with our actions. It is the "root" led by Danzo-sama who walks in the darkness of Konoha and protects Konoha. Maybe you are powerful, but please believe that you have not ignored our qualifications."
"Oh? That's right, the tone is quite loud, but I don't know if the strength is as powerful as your mouth!" Mizuki looked at the several "root" ninjas holding the hilt of the sword calmly, and changed the subject, " However, whether you are strong or not is not something I need to worry about, as long as you don't get in the way, I don't bother to care what target you are after!"
As soon as Mizuki retreated, the tense atmosphere suddenly eased.
Terai also didn't mean to turn his face on the spot: "It's so good, we will do what we have to do!"
To express his attitude, but not to mention irrelevant things at all, Mizuki also knew that he couldn't ask any news.
"That would be the best, I hope you won't disappoint Tsunade-sama."
After speaking, Mizuki explained the tasks, turned around and prepared to leave.
"By the way." Mizuki seemed to suddenly remember something, and turned around and said, "You may not understand the effect of transforming the enchantment. If there is any inappropriate action, you'd better consider whether you can hide it from me."
Looking at the back of Mizuki's departure, the oily woman behind her asked out loudly, "What should I do? Do you still want to carry out the arrest mission?"
Terai thought for a while and then ordered: "This is his territory, and we have no advantage. Before there is an order, don't startle the enemy. Other tasks follow the plan."
Although Mizuki's last words were only a threat, even if it was a bluff, people had to guard against it. No one knew whether Mizuki had tampered with the transformation of the death forest barrier.
...
Outside the death forest, Mizuki couldn't help tightening his neckline which was leaking from the windy field just after coming from the warm spring-like barrier.
"I didn't do anything against me in the first place, and my attitude was not tough. Is it because I was not sure, or was it confusing me?" 』
Danzo and his subordinate "gen", who have always shown a tough stance, prefer to directly achieve the desired results by force. Of course, when it is difficult to do it, I don’t mind using a little trick. The suicide of Konoha Shirato Hatake Sakumo and the defection of Orochimaru, one of the "Three Ninjas", may not have Dan Shimura hiding in it to fuel the flames. Regardless of strength, Mizuki, who was far inferior to Hatake Sakumo and Orochimaru in prestige, did not even have a decent test of force, which made Mizuki have to care.
This time, many "root" ninjas came, but it was basically impossible to kidnap Mizuki silently. A few months ago, he used illusion on Xiaochun. Although it was kept secret afterwards, the two must have been tearing their skins apart. What show the enemy weak. Hypocrisy and pretense are useless efforts. That is to say, it is really uncertain.
If it is a bit difficult to take down Mizuki by ordinary force, if Danzo is willing to take action himself, he should have a great chance of success.
"Could it be that there is something wrong with Danzo itself? Or is there an accident in "Don't God"? 』
This kind of guess, which is not completely impossible, immediately lifted Mizuki's spirit. If the threat he was most worried about no longer existed, then he would have the capital to fight against it. Mizuki wouldn't be afraid at all if he hadn't cheated in the Sharingan Pupil Technique and fought hard. Even if you are weak, you can find a few helpers.
"Looks like I need to check with Pharmacist Dou, maybe there is some good news..."
Mizuki, who had made up his mind, suddenly felt that the desire to go out of the village was so strong. However, the last time he made a deal with the pharmacist, in order to reassure him, he didn't leave any clues for Mizuki to take the initiative to contact him. It seemed a bit wrong. .
...
In the next few days, Mizuki immediately swept away the melancholy in his heart. Since the imminent danger will not appear for the time being, Mizuki also feels a lot more relaxed. Although there is still the possibility of miscalculation, such a good opportunity, Danzo did not appear, which means that he will be safe for a while, and Mizuki will have more confidence in dealing with the unknown sniper.
As the Chunin exam approached, Mizuki's mission gradually shifted to this side. As his most professional job-leading Jonin in the eighth class, Mizuki had to spend more time worrying about his three students. From Mizuki's point of view, Inuzuka Kiba and Hinata Hinata are still some distance away from Chunin. But the combat effectiveness is not bad. The Chunin Exam is not only a test, but also an opportunity to hone and improve yourself. You can see how much progress Destiny Child and his righteous partner made after the Chunin Exam last time.
"Mr. Mizuki, you haven't taken us out to do missions recently. You always ask us to do some boring things, such as catching wild animals. I'm really tired."
During the rest of the training, Inuzuka Kiba complained as usual. Recently, Yume Shino was the captain, leading Kiba and Hinata to take on some ninja tasks to complete. How many tasks suitable for ninja can there be in this winter? Of course, most of them are preparing for the Chunin exam. It's just that these ninjas don't know that every time they complete a task, it is equivalent to increasing the difficulty of their exam.
Mizuki looked at the dissatisfied Inuzuka Fang and said, "Is this kind of task difficult?"
"It's not difficult." Inuzuka tooth replied without thinking.
"Since it's not difficult, why don't the three of you finish it by yourself? Do you want me to watch you to feel at ease?"
"Huh?" Inuzuka was stunned by the question, and then he reacted and said: "I mean, can Mr. Mizuki take us to complete some advanced tasks, it's not interesting to always compete with wild beasts."
There are many ferocious beasts in the ninja world, and it is not uncommon for them to be stronger than ninjas. It is just that their IQ is too low, and they are easily fooled by cunning humans. Many times, they are killed without showing their strength.
