Of course, Aoba understood the meaning behind Yamanaka Inoichi's words.
It would only be more detrimental to the unity of the village if the fire were burned to a big shot like Danzo.
Moreover, the battle at the front line had reached a critical moment. Yamanaka Inoichi did not want to affect the current situation because of the personal conflict between Danzo and Aoba.
Since Aoba already knew who was behind him and the person who attacked him had paid the price of his life.
Naturally, there was no need to make things bigger.
If Aoba was unwilling, it did not matter. He could just send the person back to Konoha.
When he returned to the village, he and Danzo could fight as they liked.
Although Yamanaka Inoichi was modest and gentle, he was still the idol of many intelligence Ninjas.
But he would never allow this war to stir up trouble again!
Aoba nodded and agreed. So what if he did not agree?
Even if it was exposed, Danzo could deny it and push the blame away. Moreover, Sarutobi would not do anything to Danzo.
Therefore, if he wanted to kill Danzo, he could only do so with external help!
Danzo, who had been targeted by Akatsuki, had already entered the countdown phase of his life. Why would he bother to compete with a person who was bound to die and waste his energy?
It would be better to leave a good impression on the 'Ino-Shika-Cho' group and, at the same time, earn more battle credits and reputation to accumulate military strength. Isn't he fragrant?
Moreover, it was fine if he didn't know, but after knowing what Danzo had done, could Shikaku, as the commander, continue to let Danzo do this kind of thing?
He was the right-hand man of the Hokage!
Aoba guessed right. Just after he tactfully guaranteed that he would not speak nonsense, Shikaku, who already knew everything, immediately wrote it down in the latest war report and sent someone back to the village.
…
A few days later, when Sarutobi received the news, he immediately called Danzo over.
No one knew exactly what had happened between the two of them. They only knew that there was a fierce quarrel inside, and then Danzo, who came out, had a dark face.
"If there is a next time, Root will directly disband!"
This final ultimatum kept echoing in Danzo's mind.
While making him feel extremely humiliated, he also made up his mind that if Sarutobi did not die, he would never be a Hokage for the rest of his life!
As for some lucky little devil.
Hmph!
I'll let you live a little longer!
......
Two days later, Aoba and Itachi, who had almost recovered, returned to the team.
The injuries were not light, and Gekkou Hayate, who did not have a good body, could only continue to recuperate bitterly in the rear.
Then, they received the second mission.
Assassination!
To say that it was an assassination was actually to clear out the enemy's peripheral patrol forces.
The danger level was lower than the previous mission, but it was still not easy.
Not to mention that Aoba was already on Kumogakure's must-kill list. If he could not retreat in time after succeeding, he might even be chased by Kumogakure's ninjas that day.
If it wasn't for Aoba's repeated applications, Shikaku really didn't want to let this troublemaker go out to harm others.
But this was also a recognition of his strength!
Among the ten people who had been included in the assassination team, only Aoba and Itachi were mere genin.
Although this configuration was very ordinary, it was almost impossible for the people patrolling the outermost perimeter to have the existence of Jonin.
In a battle with a similar number of people, without using Jinchuriki and Kage-level, Jonin's number and strength were the key factors to deciding victory!
It was like no one would send the company's executives to see the door.
Of course, there were always unexpected situations. If they really encountered one, they could only admit that they were unlucky!
......
"Hey, look, there are a group of lone enemies ahead. They must be sick if they are so lifeless."
Itachi speechlessly glanced at Aoba, who had become naughty again, and began to form seals without saying anything.
When Aoba saw this, he immediately lost his skin and rushed out from behind the rock.
If Itachi stole his head, then he would lose a hundred million!
That won't do!
And just as he rushed over, those Kumogakure Ninjas also immediately discovered him.
"There are enemies!"
"It's Konoha Ninja!"
Then, at this moment, Itachi also immediately flashed out, "Water Release·Water Dragon Bullet!"
The enemy who was hastily forming seals saw the water dragon attack and could only grit his teeth and stop forming seals, then scatter in all directions to dodge.
Although Water Dragon Bullet's attack power was not particularly strong, it was still B-grade ninjutsu. If he were hit directly, even if he didn't die, he would still be crippled.
As a result, their formation was immediately disrupted.
Aoba took the opportunity to kill his way over. The moment [Hardening] opened up, he moved, moved, and looked back!
He didn't need to move. In fact, he was just fighting against Kunai and Shuriken, which filled the sky. When the distance was almost the same, he directly used Thunderclap and Flash.
With a swish!
An unlucky guy who had just avoided Water Dragon Bullet was directly beheaded by Aoba, and he didn't even have time to use the Body Substitution Spell.
At the same time, his soul was immediately absorbed and imprisoned by [Frozen Throne]in Aoba's heart, which was to destroy the enemy physically and mentally in the true sense.
However, Aoba couldn't help but think that he was robbing God of Deathi for his soul.
Would there be any sequelae?
However, apart from Corpse Ghost sealing this technique, there seemed to be no other way to summon Death God. There should be no need to worry that Death God would take the initiative to find trouble with him.
Then, at this moment, a Kumogakure Ninja shouted, "It's you! The one who dares to provoke our Lord Raikage, reckless little brat Konoha!"
"Kill him!"
"Uh."
Aoba suddenly felt a headache. This hatred was really a bit too much.
Unexpectedly, no one paid any attention to Itachi. All of them turned around and attacked him.
"Alright, since you are in such a hurry to die, I will help you!"
Aoba, who originally didn't want to waste too much energy, suddenly lit up with lightning again.
When the last enemy was also killed by him, the other members of the assassination team arrived late.
Seeing the corpses on the ground, they could not help but say helplessly, "Can you wait for us when you find the enemy next time? Otherwise, wouldn't it appear that we are too useless?"
Aoba laughed, "Definitely next time, definitely next time! Hurry up and go. The enemy reinforcements will arrive soon."
This was not the first time the others had heard this. After exchanging glances, they could only shake their heads helplessly and quickly leave the scene.
To be honest, it was a good thing to have two such fierce companions in the small team.
But if they could not help at all, it was estimated that this thigh would not be able to hold for long.
Their worries were not unfounded, and they soon became a reality.
