Chapter 467: Secret Agent

Recently, there are many merchant groups from various countries coming to Konoha.

It has brought huge profits to Konoha.

Of course, not all merchant groups come to Konoha to do business.

Some are spies from other ninja villages.

Recently, Orochimaru's experiment has entered a critical period, and he is always absent.

Minato pretends to be the fifth Hokage and works in the office every day.

Naturally, he has no time to take Naruto, Sasuke and Hinata with him.

After Hinata came back, she started to go to the Uchiha clan for basic medical training.

On the other hand, Tenten is also doing special training for summoning beasts at Tsunade's place.

Xiao Li's training intensity has doubled now, because Xiao Li used to need a certain amount of time to rest after training.

The body can support the next exercise.

Now, it is completely unnecessary.

At Xia Mu's request, Uchiha Hospital will provide restorative treatment for Xiao Li every time he comes.

Medicine and food supplements are carried out at the same time.

Xiao Li's body gradually began to strengthen.

In comparison, Neji is a little freer.

While each ninja clan needs to strengthen the training of their children, Neji is the one that makes Hizashi the least worried.

Ever since Neji was rescued by Orochimaru, his mentality has changed dramatically.

Now he is steadily improving every day.

It is no problem to get a Chunin.

So he did not go to the training camp specifically, but wanted to do more tasks to improve his experience and actual combat.

Naruto, Sasuke, and Neji were acquaintances before.

They happened to meet in the mission hall today.

"Ningji, do you want to do the mission too?"

Naruto and Sasuke came over, originally planning to find some simpler tasks, but unexpectedly met Neji.

"It's Naruto and Sasuke, yes. But my two teammates are busy now, and I'm the only one."

When Naruto heard this, it was a coincidence.

"Hey, Neji, Hinata went to study medical ninjutsu, and our team is short of someone. Do you want to take the mission with us?"

It's not that the mission of the ninja village cannot be taken by a single person, but some missions require the cooperation of multiple people to complete.

Or the mission requirements are written above, and a team is needed.

Not every ninja has a fixed teammate.

Or when a fixed teammate cannot come due to something.

There will also be such a temporary team formation.

Ningci just wanted to find a teammate, and Naruto and Sasuke happened to be acquaintances, and both of them had a close relationship with Xia Mu.

Ningci agreed without hesitation.

"Okay, Naruto, let's take the task together."

Sasuke also recognized Ningci's strength, so he had no objection.

The three of them quickly formed a team.

Because there are many caravans traveling to Konoha recently, there are many escort tasks.

The escort route is not too far.

The three of them thought this kind of task was good, so they simply started with these tasks.

The nearby ones will arrive in a few hours, and the far ones may only take one or two days.

Although the three are all Genin, their strength is stronger than that of ordinary Chunin.

With strong strength and fast completion speed, they quickly became familiar with the task system.

Even if Hiashi is not there, other employees will see Naruto and others and start to provide some convenience for Naruto and others.

During this period, many forces tested Konoha, resulting in an increase in the number of tasks.

Hizashi was also happy that Neji was close to Naruto and Sasuke.

He gave them many tasks that he could handle.

Because of their recent activities, some people with ulterior motives have also set their sights on them.

...

Konoha Village, in a hotel near the Hokage Building.

The [Aoko Chamber of Commerce] that ostensibly came to Konoha Village to trade herbs.

In fact, it was a spy from the Kusano no Mi faction of Kusano no Mi.

Kota and Yusuke are both excellent intelligence officers.

They have provided a lot of intelligence to Kusano no Mi over the years and have made a lot of contributions to the growth of Kusano no Mi.

They were Kusano no Mi many years ago, and later their superiors discovered that they had the talent to be intelligence officers.

So they changed them into the skin of the Chamber of Commerce and let them go to various ninja villages to obtain intelligence under the guise of business activities.

This time, Konoha held a large-scale Chunin exam, and many people came to Konoha.

And the disappearance of a large number of Hyuga clan members made many people think it was a good opportunity to explore intelligence.

The Kusagakure Village is no exception.

Kota and Yusuke have been using excuses like buying and selling herbs these past two days.

They have heard a lot of news.

The two have been busy for a long time.

Today, the two are summarizing.

Kota has a round head and a round head, and looks like a businessman who makes money with a friendly attitude.

He makes people like him at first sight.

Yusuke has an ordinary figure and looks, and his biggest feature is that he has no features.

This kind of person can almost disappear instantly if thrown into a crowd.

Both of them were cautious. After entering the room, they took out a scroll and opened it.

There was a word "quiet" on it.

After the two input chakra into it, a light shield slowly unfolded and spread to half the size of the room.

No matter what the two said at this time, no one outside could hear it.

Kota whispered: "It should be safe."

Yusuke said easily:

"Don't worry, this barrier is not the first time it has been used."

"The only thing you need to be careful about in Konoha is the Byakugan."

"So many people died in the Hyuga family, and there are very few people now."

"How could he just use the Byakugan to monitor the two of us?"

"Besides, this place is close to the Hokage Building, and the most dangerous place is the safest place."

Kouta also regained his voice: "You are right."

"I recently discovered something strange."

Then Kouta told Yusuke that when he was exploring the Konoha mission system, he found the very diligent Naruto and his group.

"So many Uchiha people have moved out, why is Uchiha Sasuke still in the village, wearing Konoha's forehead protector?"

Yusuke was a little strange and confused:

"I went to investigate. Uchiha Sasuke's teammate is called Uzumaki Naruto. He is very likely the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki."

"Sasuke is probably in Konoha for this reason."

Kouta's eyes were slightly stunned:

"Nine-Tails Jinchuriki? Impossible, shouldn't the Jinchuriki of a village be a secret?"

Yusuke shook his head:

"I don't understand it either, but this is hardly a secret in Konoha."

"Whether adults or children, they all call Naruto a demon fox, the son of a demon fox."

"I secretly investigated many civilians and learned that someone in their family died because of the demon fox disaster many years ago."

"The Nine-Tails Rebellion in Konoha many years ago, all the time matches."

"I think there should be no other possibility except the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki."

They tried to get the intelligence of the Hyuga clan, but the Hyuga clan was very vigilant.

They couldn't find any chance at all.

But when they were looking for information about Hyuga, they accidentally got information about the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.
