Naruto: The Legend of Chiba

Chapter 2296 Hand Over

"The one who fought this man?"

Hearing the Third Hokage interrupting his words, the Intelligence Ninja was slightly startled and repeated the sentence subconsciously.

"Yes!"

At this time, before the Third Hokage could speak, there was a sudden sound outside the secret room door.

A familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar voice came.

"Jiraiya-sama!"

After looking up almost subconsciously, the intelligence ninja was startled again and blurted out this sentence.

At this moment, behind the secret room door that had been opened at some point, a person slowly walked out. His long white hair was draped in a thorn-like shape on his back, and he was wearing an oil-shaped forehead protector. He was one of the Sannin of Konoha. Jiraiya.

He is also the one among the three ninjas who has the most contact and the closest relationship with the intelligence department.

"That's right."

However, his next words were still unable to be spoken, and he was once again interrupted by the Third Hokage.

Although the information about the corpse in front of you is also very important and can even influence the future situation.

However, this does not mean that this body is everything.

In fact, this corpse with no possibility of obtaining any information will become a misleading, or in other words, a smoke screen.

"The other one...this..."

But when he heard this sound, the intelligence ninja suddenly thought of something, his face suddenly turned pale, and cold sweat suddenly rolled down his cheeks.

"It seems that it was an oversight."

In response, Jiraiya who entered walked around in a circle, looked at the wooden statue-like corpse on the morgue, and said this.

"I'm... I'm so sorry! We have neglected our duty in this matter, please punish me, the Third Hokage!"

Then, upon hearing this, the ANBU ninja trembled, and suddenly bowed at a 90-degree angle to the Third Hokage, and apologized loudly.

negligence?

This is more than just negligence!

This is already dereliction of duty!

Their intelligence department actually focused all their attention on the passing body, but they forgot a more important piece of information.

That is, the person fighting this corpse.

They were completely attracted by this corpse, but they ignored the person who should pay more attention to it.

The person who can force this corpse to look like this!

"No! Please raise your head. This matter is too rushed. The intelligence department is already running at full capacity due to the Chuunin Exam. This is a problem with my work arrangement."

However, looking at the self-reproaching information ninja in front of him, the Third Hokage took a step forward, bowed slightly, and said as if to apologize.

This matter was indeed a bit rushed. Originally, the intelligence department was responsible for the Chunin Examination, because there were a lot of mixed characters in the village, and Kusagakure Village suddenly lifted the policy of seclusion, and a series of chain events. In response, the intelligence department is already very short of manpower, and things are piling up. At this time, to blame them, it is really his fault as the Third Hokage.

Although this matter is very important, the power of the intelligence department is limited after all. The power of each department in each village is limited and has its limits. It is efficient in handling things and has reached full capacity. In this state, mistakes will inevitably occur, regardless of whether the mistake should be made or not.

As Hokage, he couldn't criticize them harshly.

In other words, as Hokage, he should think about why he allowed the intelligence department to operate at full capacity during non-combat readiness or emergency conditions, which led to such low-level mistakes. This is his responsibility.

Yes, the intelligence agency at this time made a low-level mistake.

Ignoring the person who was fighting this body was a low-level mistake on the part of the intelligence community.

Although the existence of this corpse itself can attract most of the attention, especially when it is related to the word "Wood Release", it is undoubtedly a low-level mistake for the opponent to ignore this corpse. .

because,

That opponent is the one you really need to pay attention to.

After all, this corpse is already a dead object, and the only thing valuable is the information it represents.

However, the opponent is still alive!

After all, the reason why this corpse became this corpse was because he used a common death type jutsu, and it was a jutsu that showed the form of wood escape.

In other words, during the battle, this corpse was forced by its opponent to use the technique of mutual death.

This can be seen from the hole in his left chest. His fatal blow should have been the missing left chest. The opponent's strength was enough to kill such a Wood Release user who used Wood Release.

In an absolute sense, this person is a greater threat than this Wood Escaper.

Judging from the mutual death technique used by this Wood Escaper, the strength of this Wood Escaper is definitely not weak. It is at least S-level. In other words, he possesses an S-level powerful art and has extremely strong combat effectiveness.

And this opponent can push him to this level and cause a fatal blow, so how terrifying is the strength of this opponent.

it goes without saying!

Moreover, regardless of the position information and other information represented by the opponent, the mere fact that the opponent is still alive is enough to pay attention to.

And the level of attention is definitely higher than that of this Wooden Emissary!

Yes, that's right, still alive.

According to the information now known to the Third Hokage, this opponent should still be alive. After all, after the thorn bush was completely cleaned, no corpse was found at all, and even no traces of injuries such as blood were clearly found. Obviously, This opponent is still alive.

Moreover, his spirit was not injured at all, and even the injuries were minor, so he was living well.

This strength and record are enough to raise his attention to the highest level now.

In other words, the most important thing now is to find this opponent!

"Jiraiya, do you have any information?"

Thinking of this, the Third Hokage glanced at the intelligence ninja who straightened up but still looked ashamed. Without saying anything more, he just turned to Jiraiya and asked.

"The only thing that can be confirmed is that this opponent has the same S-level power of ninjutsu and is still alive."

In this regard, Jiraiya said.

This matter was discovered in such a hurry that he couldn't find any more information in a short period of time.

"So, are you coming here this time?"

Hearing this, the Third Hokage didn't ask further questions, he just asked.

"I want to know all the noteworthy information at this point in the Chunin Examination. I will definitely find out this opponent."

In this regard, Jiraiya said with determination on his face.

Yeah?

Already have a clue.

But does it still take time?

At this time, looking at his disciple, a thought flashed through the mind of the Third Hokage.

"Then, I'll leave this matter to you. The intelligence department will fully cooperate with you."

Afterwards, the Third Hokage thought for a moment and said this.

Now, he is the only one left.

At the same time, a lonely but ultimately hopeful thought flashed through his mind.

"yes!"

After this sound, two voices responded in unison.

"Then, I'll go back first. I can't neglect this Chunin Exam."

Later, the Third Hokage also simply left after leaving such a sentence.

After all, on the surface, there was still a crucial Chunin exam, and as Hokage, he had to be on call at any time.

Occasionally, I have to show my face.
