Tatsuma Aburame was taken aback. Wasn't the leader of the investigation team the one who had been in contact with them?
If Nagasawa were to contact them using their communication means now, they would immediately run away.
"I'm afraid it's confidential and can not be disclosed." Tatsuma Aburame said calmly. His sunglasses and hood perfectly concealed his expression.
"But didn't Konoha sent out a Root squad to help me recently? I thought it was you guys." Nagasawa smiled.
"No, please step aside. Otherwise, I'll consider you a spy from another country that wants to hinder the mission." Tatsuma Aburame said in a deep voice.
He was a veteran Root member, and he knew that he could not lose heart at a time like this.
Nagasawa nodded with a smile. "I don't think so either. The Root squad that's supposed to help me should be investigating Golden Organization's stronghold in North of the Land of Rivers."
Tatsuma Aburame heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. However, when he was about to leave, he discovered that Nagasawa was still blocking the way.
"Jonin Nagasawa, what are you trying to pull here? We've cleared things up, haven't we? If you continue to pester me, don't blame me for going rough on you." After saying that, Tatsuma Aburame took his stance. His three subordinates also took out Kunai.
Nagasawa sighed and said, "I'm just messing with you, but you really take me for an idiot. The Golden Organization has been infiltrated, and I saw their transaction records with Root..."
Tatsuma Aburame could no longer take it and ordered the parasitic insects in his body to attack the enemy. At the same time, he immediately said, "Do it!"
"Secret Art - Insect Sphere!"
The insects in Tatsuma Aburame's body crawled out until most of his body was covered by insect.
The parasitic insects that flew towards Nagasawa in horde according to the instructions of Tatsuma Aburame. The massive insect horde looked like a flying black sphere.
Whoosh!
The three Root Shinobi saw that Tatsuma Aburame had launched an attack, so they quickly threw Kunai.
Kunai cut through the air and flew towards Nagasawa's head. It was obvious that they wanted to kill him.
"Hehe, your courage is commendable." Nagasawa smiled. Then, he focused his power on his arm and threw a punch covered in white bubble.
"Sea Quake!"
Crack! Crack!
The moment Nagasawa threw his punch, the air instantly vibrated. Like a shattered mirror, cracks spread out in all directions.
Boom!!
The powerful vibration power that spread through the air instanttly decimated the insect horde, and the three Kunais were instantly shattered into pieces.
Bang bang bang bang!
However, this was not the end. The powerful force of vibration did not only repel the attack of Root Shinobi, but also sent them flying in an instant, crashing into the tree.
The eyes of Tatsuma Aburame widened and she spat out a mouthful of blood. He did not even care that his sunglasses were broken. She looked at the ordinary Jonin that he thought was nothing special in disbelief.
The attack just now did not only decimate the parasitic insect he released, but also many parasitic insect in his body because he took quite a severe damage just now.
He seemed to have discovered an incredible news. Nagasawa was actually a skilled Shinobi who had been laying low for a long time. He suspected that Nagasawa was the one who destroyed Golden Organization.
He remembered that this person had failed more than seven times in Chunin's exam.
But would such a young Kage caliber Shinobi fail so many times in Chunin's exam? Impossible, it was definitely intentional.
At this time, countless possibilities involving Nagasawa filled Tatsuma Aburame's mind.
However, Nagasawa did not give him the chance to be too absorbed in his speculation for long.
He pulled out a sword that he had obtained from the Golden Organization and slashed four times in an instant to kill the four of them.
All Root Shinobi had curse seals on their bodies to prevent them from leaking out Root's secret, so Nagasawa killed them all.
It wouldn't matter to him whether they were dead or alive. In fact, maybe the dead were better than the living in this case.

Konohagakure, Hokage's office.
Although it was already December, the two people in Hokage's office still wore their usual clothes.
Looking at the mission report submitted by Nagasawa, Minato smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Nagasawa, now this may be a problem. I didn't expect that you actually killed those four Root Shinobi. I think Elder Danzo will keep an eye on you from now on."
Nagasawa shrugged and said, "I have no choice. They attacked first, so I have to protect myself. Moreover, we have a detailed record of the transaction between Root and Golden Organization, as well as the evidence of Root leaking out Konoha's S-Rank secret mission. Won't these be enough? Root Shinobi secretly colluding with the foreign terrorist organization and attacked the allies who are carrying out the secret mission. Minato, what do you think should be done?" Nagasawa asked with a smile.
"Of course I'll thoroughly investigate Root. Konoha had no tolerance for this kind of atrocious thing." Minato replied.
He had his own concerns about Danzo for so long. Root was indeed too troublesome.
On the surface, Anbu served the Third Hokage, but for some reason Root was established, and it was a completely different organization that was controlled by Danzo alone.
Minato really couldn't do anything to Root, because Root didn't belong to him, only the Third Hokage had the right to do something about it.
However, Minato couldn't ignore something this big. He had to take this opportunity to dissolve Danzo's Root.
Otherwise, things would get out of hand in the future. He could tolerate Third's Anbu, and it was reasonable. On the other hand, Root was a massive organization, and it had the same right as Anbu, but he couldn't control it whatsoever. This was something that Minato could not tolerate.
Minato quickly made a move and immediately held an emergency meeting with his authorization as a Hokage. Without giving Danzo a chance to react, he directly sent Anbu to "invite" Danzo to the Hokage building.
Nagasawa was also present as the one who obtained the information.
At this time, Minato was sitting on the leading seat. On the right side was Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, and on the left were the two consultants of Konoha.
Danzo was very annoyed. Usually, he was the one inviting others for a meeting through his Root Shinobi. The Third Hokage also summoned him politely. Why was Minato so presumptuous?
He was just a little brat who was lucky enough to become the Hokage, but he would actually look down on him.
Hadn't the Anbu that Minato sent said that the Third Hokage and the two advisors would also come attend the meeting, he wouldn't even bother attending a meeting that Minato Held?
Seeing this scene of preparing to interrogate the sinner, Danzo was already not in a good mood. He didn't call Fourth anymore, and bluntly said:
"Minato, what exactly do you want? I am not like you. I am busy with work, and there are many things waiting I've got to do."
