Chapter 269 Konoha is anxiously waiting
Konoha, Hokage's office.
Compared with the bustle and compactness of the past, the office is now very depressing.
Tsunade kept moving behind the desk.
Jiraiya, who had already returned to the village, looked out the window with a rare look of anxiety on his face.
Also present was Shikaku Nara, the leader of the Jonin class.
He stood quietly, his brows furrowed involuntarily while he was thinking.
Ever since Jiraiya received the information about Hagoromo Genzuki's attack from Mt. Myoboku, the three of them have become like this.
Soon, the sound of heels tapping heavily on the ground was heard.
The impatient Tsunade couldn't help it first, stopped, turned around and asked Jiraiya: "Jiraiya, how are you now? Can you contact Myobokuyama?"
Jiraiya shook his head: "It still doesn't work. Miaomu Mountain has actively blocked the psychic contract, so the psychic technique doesn't work now."
Tsunade frowned: "What on earth do those toads think?"
Jiraiya didn’t understand either.
Hearing that Hagoromo Genzuki was attacking Mt. Myoki, he originally wanted to ask Gamabunta and the others to reverse channel him and go to help Kazuo.
As a result, there was no movement after the news of Hagoromo Genzuki came from Myoboku Mountain. Even if he wanted to channel the Myoboku Mountain toad, he couldn't do it.
Since becoming a contractor of Myoboku Mountain, Jiraiya has never seen such a situation.
Hence, he couldn't help but worry.
What's more, Naruto is still there.
"Ahem." Seeing this, Shikaku Nara coughed twice and said with relief, "Lord Hokage, Lord Jiraiya, there is no need to worry. As one of the three holy places, Mt. Miaomu has many masters, and the legendary Great Toad Sage is here. , I don’t think Haoyi Xuanyue can do much good.”
“Big Toad Immortal”
Jiraiya thought of the times he had met each other several times in the past.
Although I know that this real immortal who has lived for thousands of years is very powerful.
But the inconspicuous confusion still made him murmur a little.
At this time, Great Toad Immortal, you must not be confused!
in addition.
If it were someone else, they might even organize forces to attack Mt. Miaomu.
Jiraiya and Tsunade weren't too worried.
But this time he faced Hagoromo Xuanyue.
The two people who had personally experienced Hagoromo Genzuki's strength were still uneasy even though they knew that Myobokuyama was equally powerful.
Tsunade even thought about sending Konoha reinforcements to support.
But the distance between Konoha and Mount Myouki is too far. If we get there, the day lilies may be cold.
So, they can only wait anxiously in the office for the results.
“Tsunade-sama!”
At this moment, Shizune suddenly pushed the door open and entered.
“What’s wrong?” Tsunade turned around suddenly and asked in a high tone.
Rushing over as quickly as possible, the panting Shizune hurriedly explained: "Sunagakure Village was attacked by the Akatsuki organization, and the Fifth Kazekage Gaara was captured. Sunagakure Village sent an emergency report asking for help, hoping that Konoha will provide quick support."
"The Fifth Kazekage was captured by the Akatsuki organization?" Tsunade was instantly shocked.
Jiraiya also temporarily put aside his worries about Mount Miaomu at this time and turned his head with a serious expression.
He has been investigating the Akatsuki organization for a long time.
He was not in the village before, but it was he who found the relevant clues and lurked into Yuyin Village to search, but found nothing, so he returned without success.
At this time, I heard that Akatsuki finally started to take action, and even pointed the finger at Feng Ying, one of the five dignified figures.
Combined with Hagoromo Genzuki's movements, Jilai suddenly felt a strong sense of urgency that the storm was coming.
Tsunade asked at this time, "How many people did the Akatsuki organization have? Can they actually defeat the Fifth Kazekage and the Sand Ninjas?"
“Two.” Shizune replied. In an instant, the whole office became extremely quiet.
Although she felt that the atmosphere was a little strange, Shizune continued responsibly:
“Of the two members of the Akatsuki organization, one is Deidara, a rebellious nin from Iwagakure Village who was once a direct disciple of the Third Tsuchikage. As for the other, the information is unknown, except that he is good at flying and has the ability to summon ninja tools.”
After the Second Five Kage Conference, the five ninja villages established channels for mutual communication.
Recently, due to the growing threat from Hagoromo Genzuki, the connections between the five major ninja villages have become closer. With the exchange of intelligence, the Suna ninja quickly discovered Deidara's identity.
"I understand." Tsunade rubbed her brows and said slowly.
Although there is a lot to say in his heart, Suna Ninja is Konoha's ally after all.
She cheered up and immediately issued an order: "Notify the third squad and the seventh squad led by Yamato to come to the Hokage's office immediately."
"yes!"
Zhiyin hurriedly went to inform.
Looking at Shizune’s leaving figure, Tsunade couldn’t help but shake her head and said:
"Kazekage. The one-tailed Jinchuuriki is really having a troubled life!"
“Something is wrong.”
Nara Shikaku suddenly said, "The timing of Hagoromo Genzuki and the Akatsuki organization's action is too coincidental."
"Indeed." Jiraiya also thought of this and nodded, "And their targets are all tailed beasts. I remember that Hagoromo Genzuki didn't care about tailed beasts before."
"Unless he wants to use the tailed beast for something, just like the Akatsuki organization." Nara Shikaku took over.
He seemed to understand something and immediately analyzed:
"Beyond Mount Katsuragi, it is suspected that Gengetsu Hagoromo fought with people from the Akatsuki organization and won. Near the lake where the three tails were hiding, a ninja from Suozen Village named Ari appeared under Gengetsu Hagoromo. Although he fled later, the three tails He was captured by the arriving Akatsuki member Deidara and Kisame; today, Hagoromo Genzuki and the Akatsuki organization simultaneously captured the tailed beast. From the looks of it, I'm afraid."
Speaking of this, Nara Shikaku couldn't help but tremble his fingers a few times, took a deep breath, and told the most likely truth:
"I'm afraid that the relationship between Hagoromo Gengyue and Akatsuki is not as hostile, competitive, or incompatible as we thought before. It is more likely that Hagoromo Gentleman and the Akatsuki organization are already on the same front."
“Furthermore, Hagoromo Genzuki has taken control of the Akatsuki organization! Let the rebellious ninjas of the Akatsuki organization be used by him! All tailed beast captures now are due to Hagoromo Genzuki’s will!"
After Nara Shikaku's words fell, the scene was completely silent.
Tsunade, Jiraiya's pupils suddenly shrank.
One Hagoromo Genzuki is already stressful enough, and now there are a group of members of the Akatsuki organization whose personal strength is no worse than that of the Five Shadows.
It’s so desperate!
Jiraiya's voice suddenly became jerky, and he couldn't help but say: "In that case, what is Hagoromo Genzuki's purpose of capturing the tailed beast? With his strength, even if the nine tailed beasts unite, they are no match for him."
Nara Shikaku shook his head.
The information is limited and he cannot analyze it.
The whole office was silent again.
Not long after, footsteps sounded from the corridor.
The fully armed Yamato, Sakura, Sai, Kai, Xiao Li, Tenten, and Neji walked into the Hokage's office under the leadership of Shizune, breaking the silence.
“Hokage-sama!” Everyone saluted.
Tsunade was about to say something.
A liaison squad ninja suddenly arrived, handed Tsunade a scroll and said:
“Lord Hokage, urgent report from Kumoyin Village!”
Tsunade had a very bad feeling, so she opened it and took a look.
Sure enough!
The eight-tailed jinchuriki of Yunyin Village and the second-tailed jinchuriki are missing.
It is reported that the people who took action included members of the Akatsuki organization and Uchiha Sasuke!
Tsunade suddenly raised her head and looked at Nara Shikaku.
The worst predictions have come true.
This is not over yet.
Beside, Jiraiya suddenly said in surprise:
“Reconnected with Myobokuyama!”
(Thanks to "Jipa" and "Zhou Tiannali" for the 500 reward! Thanks to "Chafanlife" for the 300 reward! Thanks to "Shenzhou Fenghua" for the 200 reward! Thanks to "Autumn Language of Things" for the 100 reward!)
