章節 232: This Tower Is So Weird!
As the three bundles of chakra energy entered the fence in the area of Aoba's tower.
Aoba's expression gradually changed.
"How come I can find someone here?"
Aoba felt that these people's ability to test their luck was too bad. No matter where he was, they would always meet him.
Aoba still didn't know what these three chakras were going to do, but he was most worried about what kind of mess they would cause here.
If it were just capturing or something else and would leave after finishing it then leave no traces behind, everything would be fine.
He was afraid that they would take lives and then lure Konoha Military Police Force over.
As a result.
Things would become troublesome.
Before today, Aoba would not hesitate from evacuating this tower. After all, it was just a secret stronghold.
However, after Hokage's Anbu checked the rooms in Anbu's dormitory.
Aoba already understood that Anbu's dormitory was not a safe place. He needed a secret place that belonged to him.
For now.
The tower was the best place.
Before he found a better place, he would never let the tower go so easily.
Suddenly.
Aoba raised his perception ability to the peak.
Relying on the Sage Body perception power. He covered the surrounding woods in all directions.
After repeatedly confirming.
Only these three were coming.
They must have entered this area by accident during their chase.
'I hope they go to other places.'
...
In the tower area.
A young girl wearing Konohagakure's ninja outfit was running quickly. She had to look back every few steps she took to see if someone was chasing after her.
This young girl was wearing a set of red inner lining clothes. Her red-brown hair was barely over her ears, and she looked somewhat flustered.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
The young girl passed through the branches quickly. Her speed had already reached its limit, and she was getting tired from running.
"Damn it!"
The young girl had a look of despair on her face. She could clearly feel that the two people chasing after her were getting closer and closer to her.
Kacha!
At this moment.
The young girl's feet suddenly became light.
The tree branch she had just stepped on was directly broken because it could not withstand the force of her stomp.
The balance of her entire body was broken, and she instantly fell from her running state. She directly fell to the ground, and her face was scratched.
In an instant.
Blood began to flow out of the girl's face. Because of the sudden stop, the two people chasing her caught up to her instantly.
"It seems that I may die here."
The girl turned her head. She was still lying on the ground. Her legs were somewhat painful after falling down just now, and she could not get up immediately.
In her sight.
Two figures instantly caught up to her and stopped in front of her.
"Fujieda Yoshino, you finally can't run anymore."
These two figures were both wearing black robes and masks. From their appearance, it was impossible to see any characteristics. The tone of their voice was cold and emotionless. It was even impossible to tell which one of the two people said it.
"Hahahahaha, is this how you eradicate your dissidents?"
The girl named Fujieda Yoshino smiled coldly and shook her head. Her eyes were already filled with the light of death. At this point, she already knew that she had no other way.
"Kill!"
The two ninjas in black robes and masks looked at each other. No one continued to talk nonsense with the girl. The two of them quickly rushed towards the girl.
Swish! Swish!
Two cold lights flashed.
This girl called Fujieda Yoshino was instantly killed.
The girl fell to the ground.
Blood flowed down the wound on her neck.
It dyed the surrounding grass red.
"Mission completed."
The tone of the two black-robed masked men did not have any emotional fluctuations, just like robots.
One of them reached out his right hand and reached into the ninja bag. He took out a small bottle.
He opened the small bottle.
Then, he poured the liquid inside the small bottle onto the young girl's body.
Chi chi chi chi chi chi chi chi...
White gas instantly emerged from the young girl's body. Her entire body began to melt, and in the blink of an eye, her whole body turned into a bag of bones.
A few seconds later.
The girl, including her clothes, turned into a pool of black water.
The black water mixed with the blood on the ground and finally turned into dark red blood that seeped into the ground.
If Aoba was here.
Seeing this scene.
He would definitely recognize what kind of liquid was inside this small bottle.
It was Corpse Dissolving Water, which he thought was very useful.
"Let's go!"
The black-robed masked man who had poured the Corpse Dissolving Water nodded at the other black-robed masked man.
Instantly.
The two black-robed masked men walked in the direction they had come from.
...
On the tall tower.
Aoba silently sensed all of this.
After that chakra in the escape state went through violent fluctuations, it instantly disappeared. It could be said that it was dead.
The remaining two chakra return from where they come from.
"It's still dead after all."
Aoba shook his head helplessly. If someone died here, it would still be a hidden danger.
However.
Fortunately, those two people were leaving.
They were together.
It was unlikely that they would casually reveal the matter of killing people here.
Overall.
The matter was considered smooth.
Aoba had been sensing the movements over there the entire time. He could roughly understand what had happened over there, but he wasn't clear about the specific details.
However.
Just when Aoba thought that things could end like this.
His brows suddenly furrowed.
He discovered...
Those two chakras were suddenly heading in his direction!
...
Outside the tower.
Two black-robed masked men were heading back the way they came from.
Suddenly.
The black-robed masked man who was walking behind stopped.
"Why do I feel that there is something wrong with that tower?" The black-robed masked man behind him said.
"Mission completed," The black-robed masked man in front said coldly.
"Why is Fujieda Yoshino running this way? What if there are their people in the tower?" The black-robed masked man behind him continued.
"The mission is completed." The black-robed masked man in front of him repeated coldly.
"If there are still Fujieda Yoshino's companions inside, our mission will not be considered complete." The black-robed masked man said again.
"Our mission is to kill Fujieda Yoshino." The black-robed masked man shook his head and said.
"No, we have to go and take a look!" The black-robed masked man behind ignored his teammates' objections. He immediately turned around and walked in the direction of the tower.
"Our mission is over. If we do anything else, it is very likely that it will cause unnecessary trouble. Remember, the mission is above all else!" The black-robed masked man in front said coldly. He had no intention of going over.
"Trust me this once. My intuition has never been wrong." The black-robed masked man behind him said in a deep voice. His tone was filled with a strong determination. It could be heard that he would not give up until he went to the tower.
"I really can't do anything to you." The black-robed masked man in front hesitated for a moment before following the black-robed masked man behind him towards the tower.
According to regular operations.
Their mission was over.
Now, they could go back to report.
There was no need to go in the direction of the tower.
However...
Since they had already arrived at this place.
The black-robed masked man in front thought for a moment, then simply did not care about this matter.
"You haven't come to Root Base for long, so let's forget about it this time. There won't be a next time. If you are in a team with others to do a mission, remember that the mission is above all else, and the mission is set together. After the mission is completed, don't do anything else, and immediately return."
The black-robed masked man in front spoke up. These things were the rules of Root, and what they were doing now was already breaking the rules of Root.
"I did come late, so I have not been completely assimilated by you task machines. The mission this time is to kill Fujieda Yoshino. However, if we can find Fujieda Yoshino's companion, it will also be an upgrade for the mission." The black-robed masked man did not seem to mind at all.
After he said those words.
Neither of them said a word.
Everything that needed to be explained had been explained.
There was nothing left to say.
...
Ten minutes later.
The two black-robed masked men arrived at the entrance of the tower.
They looked at the tower's door and found that the lock of the tower had been opened.
"Someone has come in here!"
The two black-robed masked men realized the problem here.
Normally speaking.
This tower was used as Chunin's examination room.
It was usually sealed.
Now that the lock had been opened, someone must have come.
'Maybe there are people inside!'
'It is very likely that they are Fujieda Yoshino's accomplice!'
When the two thought of this, they looked at each other and could see the seriousness in each other's eyes.
Then.
The two of them nodded.
They walked into the tower together.
What greeted their eyes was a very clean passageway.
Whether it was the ground, the walls, or the ceiling, they were all clearly cleaned up by someone. It was completely different from the outside of the tower.
'People often came here!'
The two black-robed masked men realized the same thing.
Their movements became even lighter.
They walked all the way to the first floor of the tower and saw the big show.
The place was even cleaner.
There was not even a speck of dust on the ground.
This degree of cleanliness could be easily determined with just a glance. In the recent hour, there were many people here.
"Leave this to me. Go and report to Danzo-sama."
The experienced black-robed masked man said in a deep voice. He could now believe the intuition of this little companion. He was indeed very powerful, and he had a very sudden breakthrough.
Who would have thought that there was someone hiding in this tower?
"Understood."
The black-robed masked man, with a keen intuition, nodded. He understood that it was time for the division of labor. It was the best choice for him to inform Danzo.
Suddenly.
He turned around and ran towards the entrance of the tower.
However.
Just as he reached the entrance of the tower.
Swish Swish Swish...
The white paper seemed to appear out of thin air and instantly blocked the entrance of the tower.
The white paper formed a wall of paper in front of him.
"There are people here!"
The black-robed masked man suddenly roared. He had already realized the feeling of danger.
There was clearly someone here.
However, when they entered, they felt nothing!
Nothing!
The black-robed masked man instinctively turned around and ran back. However, the moment he turned around, white paper flew toward his body.
Bang!
After the black-robed masked man's body was pierced through by the white paper, he exploded.
This was a clone.
But...
The area covered by the paper was simply too large.
It could be said that it covered the entire corridor, leaving no space to dodge.
Just after the clone shattered.
The black-robed masked man's true body fell from the ceiling. His hands each held a kunai and slashed towards the flying paper.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh...
One piece of paper after another passed through his kunai and stuck to his body.
The entire process only happened in an instant.
It was not that his reaction was not fast enough.
It happened too suddenly.
In addition, these papers were too dense.
After these papers were pasted on the body of this black-robed masked man, black lines appeared on the white paper.
These black lines formed string after string of runes on the paper. They possessed extremely strong sealing abilities, directly limiting the movement of this black-robed masked man. Not only was he unable to control his body, but he was also unable to mobilize his chakra. Only his brain was still thinking.
Baam!
This black-robed masked man fell to the ground after his entire body was wrapped in a piece of white paper with black lines.
"What's going on?"
The other black-robed ninja wearing a mask rushed over.
It was at the moment he heard the sound.
He was already running over at his fastest speed.
But things happened too quickly.
There was no chance at all.
When he came here, he saw that his companion was wrapped in paper and fell to the ground.
For a moment.
The black-robed masked man stood in place.
He didn't dare to move easily.
He looked around cautiously.
He didn't even know if his opponent was a human or a ghost.
One of his companions was sealed.
It really brought him a great deal of pressure.
Gradually.
Time slowly passed.
The black-robed masked man just stood there and waited cautiously.
However, there was no movement in the surroundings.
It was as if the entire world had returned to peace.
"Who?"
The black-robed masked man said coldly. An indescribable sense of fear surged in his heart.
The visible opponent was not scary.
This kind of invisible opponent was scary.
From beginning to end.
He only saw his companion surrounded by paper.
"Show yourself!"
The black-robed masked man shouted again, but there was still no response.
Another period of time passed.
The black-robed masked man stood there for more than ten minutes.
There was still no movement.
His companion lying on the ground, who was sealed by the sealing paper, was about to fall asleep.
"Could this be an automatic trigger?"
The black-robed masked man suddenly felt that he was a little too cautious.
'Could it be that this was set up by the person who closed the tower before leaving?'
Then.
The black-robed masked man carefully walked towards the entrance of the tower.
When he reached the door.
He walked out without any obstructions.
He stood outside the tower.
Feeling the gradually darkening weather, question marks popped up in his head one after another.
"Could it be that we are really overthinking things?"
The black-robed masked man returned to the tower. It had been almost half an hour since they entered.
From beginning to end, he had not seen anyone.
The only sound he heard was the sound of his companion.
"I'll take you out now."
The black-robed masked man immediately squatted beside his companion and reached out his hand to touch him. He wanted to help his companion tear off the sealing paper.
However.
Just as his finger touched the paper, he felt a mysterious power.
On the piece of paper that he touched.
Black lines appeared one after another.
These black lines were like living things, instantly twisting and turning. With a terrifying speed, they spread along with his finger toward his body.
"Not good!"
The black-robed masked man immediately realized the danger he was in. He wanted to pull his hand out, but he found that he could no longer control his hand.
As long as the black runes spread to some part of his body, he would lose control of it.
At this moment.
The runes had already spread to his entire right arm.
"I fell into a trap!"
The black-robed masked man's left hand quickly reached into the ninja bag and quickly took out a kunai from the ninja bag.
The moment the sharp blade appeared, his left hand changed its target. Without hesitation, he swung it towards his right arm.
Swish!
The right arm of the black-robed masked man was cut off from his shoulder.
Blood kept flowing out of the wound.
The whole process was extremely decisive.
When his right hand was sealed, he already understood that if the seal on his right arm spread to his whole body. Then he would become meat on the chopping board, unable to resist and be trampled on.
Because of this.
He decisively cut off his arm.
It let him break free from the seal restraint.
The black-robed masked man who had lost his arm completely ignored the wound on his right arm. His right arm which had fallen to the ground was already covered in black sealing formula.
'Leave this place!'
This was the only thought in his mind. He felt that this was a very strange place.
This tower was too strange!
Suddenly.
He ran towards the door of the tower.
Only...
This time.
He was unable to run out as smoothly as before.
What awaited him was a paper wall formed from paper, completely isolating him from the tower.
