"In that case, let her go again this time. This kind of difficult task requires a good medical ninja. Young people are not afraid of hardship. Also, this is the list. Kakashi, you go and rest. I will arrange them."
Jiraiya waved his hand. After Kakashi left, he pondered while looking at the name on the white paper in his hand. He was a very cautious person on important matters. Even if he had decided to go, he still had to think about it many times to see if there were any mistakes.
"Naruto, Sakura, Yamato... and this Sai, it seems that he is one of Danzo's people. How would I deal with him? Forget it. There are so many people here that he can't make any trouble without being noticed. And... how can this illusion master of Konoha not go? Well, that's it."
After several rounds of investigation, the plan was finally settled, so Jiraiya immediately arranged for the Anbu to inform them that the selected team was ready to go and there was no need to come to the office to find him.
In about ten minutes, the Anbu had already informed Jiraiya of the people going to the Tenchi Bridge. Kurenai also received the notice, but the Anbus didn't notice the flash of crimson light in Kurenai's eyes.
After two and a half years of development, Kurenai's special ability and her strength had reached a level that even Ryoha didn't know. In short, Ryoha's evaluation of Kurenai was two words: monster-level.
"After more than two years of hiding, I finally reached my Father's level. No, now I can faintly surpass him. Hmph, the name of the Yuuhi clan will soon shake the world again."
"Don't think that just because my father is dead, the strength of the Yuuhi clan has declined. Hokage, Danzo, and those higher-ups, you better know your place. Otherwise, don't blame me for anything happened."
Kurenai murmured as she packed her luggage. She had been hiding her strength for more than two years under Konoha's eyes. No one noticed that Kurenai was no longer the same as before. No one could see her special ability.
Even the Hokage and the other Jonins who were familiar with her would think that she was no different from before. It could be seen how terrifying her ability to hide her aura was.
Standing in front of a Hokage and so many other Jonins who were familiar with her, she never showed any change in her strength. But if one looked properly at her, they could feel an unfathomable aura coming from her.
"Orochimaru? Let me see how many of my moves you can withstand now." Kurenai's voice was full of confidence.
This was not a bluff but a genuine one. Kurenai was qualified to say such words with her newfound strength.
"Sasuke, I can finally find you. I, Uzumaki Naruto, said that I will bring you back. Even if I have to break your limbs, I will bring you back."
Naruto was helpless against Ryoha, but he was confident he could deal with Sasuke. However, the only trouble was Kabuto and Orochimaru. He could have brought him back to the Valley of End, but Orochimaru and Kabuto destroyed him.
However, this time, he was not worried, because he was not weak this time. After more than two years of cultivation, his strength was not the same as before. He might not be able to beat Ryoha, but he could at least beat Sasuke. Moreover, he was not alone this time. Other people went with him.
Even if he could not beat Orochimaru, as long as his other teammates held the snake user back, he would immediately retreat after he dealt with Sasuke. It had to be said that Naruto had reached the peak level of intelligence in his life.
"Sigh, I didn't expect that now I have to go out again just after coming back. It's really hard. Are we really going to bring Sasuke back in this mission?"
"No, it's impossible. The enemy is one of the Legendary Sannin, Orochimaru. Moreover, he also has the Otogakure and other underground forces, which have been running for many years. And Sasuke simply left the village on his own initiative. For the sake of strength, he would do anything. Unless you gave him more power, Naruto, how can you bring him back?"
Sakura looked at the mission scroll in her hand and shook her head in amusement. She was no longer the Sakura who had just graduated from the Academy.
Especially after Gaara's rescue mission, she has made a lot of progress. This does not only refer to her strength but also wisdom and experience. After all, these two aspects can not be improved the way one would improve his strength.
"Eh? Uchiha Sasuke? Orochimaru? Danzo-san's mission is not so easy to complete." A young man with short black hair and pale skin looked down at the scroll with a single word written on it.
"Huh, this will be a massive headache. Kakashi-senpai and Guy-senpai won't be around. I have to deal with such a big mission alone, and I have to bring so many people with me. It's really troublesome."
Early the next morning, Yamato, who had been waiting for others at the gate of Konoha, frowned and said very unhappily.
"Yamato, it is not as troublesome as you say. You just need to do it step by step." A slightly lazy voice came, and Yamato turned around.
He found Kurenai standing not far away, but a pair of deep, charming eyes were staring at him, making Yamato feel like he had been dissected. Under the gaze of Kurenai, he had no secret at all.
"It's simply an unfathomable gaze. Sure enough, the famous Kurenai-sensei is definitely not a simple person. Maybe this time it won't be as troublesome as I thought."
Yamato was shocked. He had felt this feeling before from Lord Hokage, but Kurenai was also able to give him this feeling just now. He just couldn't be sure if it were her illusion or something.
Because that feeling was fleeting. It was impossible for him to remember whether it really existed or not. But even so, Yamato also remembered Kurenai. This woman was one of the people he could never offend.
"Yamato-sensei, so you're going too!" In the past two years, one of the people who cooperated with Jiraiya to guide Naruto was Yamato, so they knew each other much earlier than in the original work.
