"Remember."
Upon hearing Danzo's words, Matsuri immediately gave a brief account of the situation.
"No problem."
After hearing what Shi said, Danzo frowned: "The owner of that ninja tool shop isn't even a ninja, how could he possibly use such poison?"
With that, Danzo shook his head and said, "Continue investigating. Record all the information about everyone who went out and came back from that day to the next, everything that happened. Search thoroughly. I refuse to believe there isn't a single trace!"
At this point, Danzo really wanted to slam his fist on the table.
But feeling his body weak and powerless, he became angry again.
"Yes."
Upon hearing Danzo's words, the person addressed as Matsuri immediately nodded respectfully.
"Also, go and get another batch of ninja tools."
Watching the ritual depart, Danzo suddenly remembered something and said, "I heard that a shop has come up with a good new marketing method, and their ninja tools have been selling well these past two days. Send someone to fetch another batch of ninja tools."
"Lord Danzo, we've already taken several batches."
Upon hearing this, Ji paused, hesitated for a moment, and said, "What if the other party is unwilling?"
"It's none of their business to criticize."
Danzo sneered, "It's not that I refuse to give it to you, it's just that it will be recorded in the Anbu account. As a member of Konoha, this is for the sake of Konoha!"
"If that ninja tool shop had stayed the same, I wouldn't have said anything, but its marketing methods these past two days have been incredibly successful."
"The ninja tool shop must have restocked a lot of ninja tools; bring back everything from the shop."
"Yes."
Upon hearing Danzo's words, Matsuri immediately accepted the order and left.
"Which traitor is it?"
Danzo's expression was extremely unpleasant as he watched the festival depart.
This feeling is awful.
He can sense the chakra within his body, but he is unable to unleash it.
I felt weak and powerless all the time, and I couldn't even sleep well.
What kind of toxin is this?
Could it be that someone from an outside ninja village has infiltrated Konoha?
They should have targeted the Hokage, not the Root organization he was hiding in the shadows.
To be able to descend to the root, one must be familiar with the root.
Ultimately, it all came down to a traitor!
Danzo's gaze was icy, but a fire within him yearned to burst forth.
"Damn the Chunin Exams!"
The next second, Danzo muttered angrily.
If it weren't for the Chunin Exams, he would have targeted the Hyuga clan.
While Danzo was cursing and swearing.
Hyuga clan.
Hiashi Hyuga instructed his bodyguard, "For the next two days, continue to monitor the situation. If there are still any lone Root ninjas wandering around the clan territory, capture one more. Try to capture a Jonin, or even a Chunin."
He was confident that he could make Danzo suffer a loss.
There was no point in not cracking down on it before.
But now that they've been captured, they can be used to cultivate the Northern Darkness Divine Art.
"Yes."
Upon hearing Hiashi Hyuga's words, the Hyuga clan's bodyguard immediately nodded respectfully: "Understood, subordinate."
Although they didn't understand why the clan leader suddenly gave such an order, their guards had been putting up with the Root ninjas who had been lingering around the clan's territory for a long time.
Now that they have an opportunity to make a move, they will absolutely not let it go.
"Also, make a trip to Hinata's place and make sure she comes back tonight."
The next second, Hiashi Hyuga continued, "Say hello to Jonin Kurenai Yuhi. I believe she will understand. It's impossible for her to accept a mission outside the village today."
Hinata Hyuga and Hanabi Hyuga should also learn this Northern Darkness Divine Art as soon as possible.
Hinata might be busy, but Hanabi can progress faster.
"yes!"
Upon hearing Hiashi Hyuga's words, the bodyguard immediately left and headed to the training ground where Kurenai Hyuga was.
And at this very moment.
The training ground where Kurenai Yuhi is located.
Kiba Inuzuka, Shino Aburame, and Hinata Hyuga were gathered in front of Kurenai Yuhi.
"Hinata is back in the party today. I don't plan to take on any missions to leave the village for the next couple of days. Instead, I'll be taking on some smaller commissioned tasks for you guys to assist with."
Kurenai looked at the three people in front of her and said, "As members of my team, you should at least get to know each other, especially Kiba and Shino. You need to train hard and don't slack off even when you go back in the next couple of days."
At this point, Kurenai looked at Kiba Inuzuka and Shino Aburame.
Of the three, only these two are the weakest.
The reason she changed her mission to leave the village was that she also needed to master her bloodline limit.
"Please, Ms. Hong, you're being too heartless."
Upon hearing Kurenai's words, Kiba Inuzuka was speechless: "Hinata just joined the team, and you only talk about me and Shino, not Hinata. Isn't that a bit unfair?"
Why did Teacher Kurenai tell them to go back and not be lazy, instead of telling Hinata?
"Hinata can slack off now; her strength far surpasses yours."
Kurenai Yuhi calmly said, "So she can even slack off until the Chunin Exams. The goal I set for you is for you and Shino to work together with Hinata, with Hinata as the team leader."
"what?"
Upon hearing Kurenai's words, Kiba Inuzuka's eyes widened in shock, his expression one of utter disbelief: "Hinata as captain? I'm going to team up with Hinata? Kurenai-sensei, you're not kidding me, are you?"
What a joke.
In the squad, I am the one who will be the captain.
Shino was also cooperating with him.
Why is it that just because Hinata came along, he has to give up his captain position to support her?
Damn, is this how connections are made these days?
Although Hinata, as the eldest daughter of the Hyuga clan, has a higher status than his family, he is still the eldest son!
There's no such thing as "airdropping".
Most importantly, when Kurenai was training him and Shino, she had already decided that he would be the captain.
How come the captain is going to become Hinata in less than a few days?
Although I don't know Hinata very well, I do understand her personality quite well.
I don't have many friends in class, I don't talk much, I'm introverted, would I be suitable to be a team leader?
Even Shino Aburame turned her head to look over.
He didn't care that Hinata was the captain.
Instead, it was Kurenai-sensei who said that Hinata was stronger than them!
"It is indeed very dangerous."
Sensing the signals transmitted to her by the insects on her body, Shino Aburame instantly realized that what Kurenai Yuhi had said was true!
For a moment, I was lost in thought.
Indeed, appearances can be deceiving.
"I...I can't do it."
Hinata was stunned when she heard Kurenai's words.
He immediately waved his hand hastily in refusal: "I... I can't be the captain."
Hinata is completely incapable of commanding others.
She felt that she was not suited for this role at all.
"Is this guy really stronger than me?"
Seeing Hinata waving her hands hastily and even looking flustered, Kiba Inuzuka scratched his head in frustration.
He's stronger than him, so he's fine.
However, Hinata's reaction somewhat baffled Kiba Inuzuka.
"In that case, you can continue as captain, Ya."
Seeing Hinata like this, Kurenai shook her head and said, "I promised Kiba that you would be the captain before because I misjudged Hinata's strength. But it seems that Hinata is indeed not suitable to be the captain. She can use her Byakugan to assist you."
"Alright, that's settled."
"Hinata, come with me for a moment."
With that, Kurenai gestured for Hinata to follow her and walked to the side, as if she had something special to say.
"Huh?"
Hinata Hyuga's expression froze upon hearing Kurenai's words.
Although I didn't understand why Ms. Kurenai said that, I immediately followed along.
"Speaking of which, Shino, is that kid really stronger than us?"
Watching Kurenai and Hinata leave, Kiba Inuzuka turned to Shino Aburame and scratched his head, saying, "I just don't believe it."
If it weren't for Hinata's reaction, he would have thought that raising his voice at Hinata was bullying her.
"My insects told me that she has a huge amount of chakra and is very dangerous."
Aburame Shino calmly said, "This proves that Ms. Kurenai was not wrong, and Ms. Kurenai would not say such a thing for no reason. The fact that she can say such a thing means that this person's strength is far above ours."
"Do you really think Ms. Kurenai would lie to you?"
Kiba Inuzuka: "."
That's true, Ms. Kurenai couldn't possibly be deceiving them.
Because there is absolutely no need for it.
but.
Just thinking about Hinata's reaction made Inuzuka's teeth ache.
That shouldn't be the case.
But now that Shino Aburame has said this, through the chakra insect sensing, it means that Hinata's strength is truly extraordinary.
"Everyone has a different personality, don't judge a book by its cover, teeth."
Aburame Shino calmly said, "You need to put away this contemptuous attitude, or you'll definitely suffer a big fall later."
"I see."
Upon hearing Shino Aburame's words, Kiba Inuzuka's gaze turned deep and unsettling.
But thinking about Hinata's reaction just now, Kiba Inuzuka felt a toothache.
That shouldn't be the case.
He should observe more closely when he does his tasks this afternoon.
Thinking of this, Kiba Inuzuka turned his head to look.
It can be seen that Kurenai and Hinata are not far from them, and Kiba Inuzuka can't help but raise an eyebrow.
Is there something that Ms. Kurenai is going to say to Hinata?
Feeling Kiba Inuzuka's gaze, Shino Aburame also turned to look at him.
"Teacher Hong?"
At this moment, Hinata had followed Kurenai to the nearby grove, and Hinata looked at Kurenai with a somewhat confused expression.
"I can sense a considerable power within you; I need to test your strength."
Kurenai Yuhi looked at Hinata and laughed heartily, then said, "Now, attack me with all your might."
She did not ask about Hinata's candy shop.
Hinata sneaking off to that mysterious jar shop shows she's trying to hide a secret.
Knowing that he owned the jar shop and had secretly followed Hinata was not something to be proud of.
However, considering Hinata's training and the strength she displayed yesterday afternoon, Kurenai Yuhi felt she needed to properly test Hinata's abilities.
Look how amazing Hinata is.
How much has my strength improved since I first opened the can?
Let's do an assessment so we can plan Hinata's future training.
After all, she is a female Jonin of Konoha, and has her own unique insights.
As long as Hinata hasn't broken through to Jonin level, she can definitely offer some guidance.
Even if she breaks through to a higher level, with her current knowledge and experience, she is fully capable of teaching Hinata.
"what?"
Upon hearing Kurenai's words, Hinata's expression froze, and she hesitated, saying, "This...this isn't a good idea."
My strength is already at the Chunin level. Wouldn't it expose me if I fought against Kurenai?
"What's wrong with that? I'm your teacher, do you think I'd be defeated by you?"
Seeing Hinata's hesitation, Kurenai knew exactly what Hinata was thinking and chuckled, "Even if I'm defeated by you, I'll be happier."
"You need to understand that I am your teacher. Until you become a Jonin, I will be your teacher."
"When you become a Chunin, you'll be going on missions with me, and then we'll be comrades-in-arms."
"You've just graduated, so I need to properly assess your abilities and then give you guidance and advice on your future plans."
"Although you come from the Hyuga clan, you ultimately don't understand some missions outside. You can't go it alone. Don't you want to become independent?"
"Do you want to live under the protection of your family forever? If so, it's not impossible, but I don't think you want that."
"Don't think about exposing yourself or anything. What kind of behavior is it for a child to be so secretive?"
As Kurenai Yuhi spoke, Hinata's hesitation gradually disappeared.
Yes, I want to be independent, and Ms. Kurenai wants to teach me, evaluate me, and give me guidance, so there's no need for me to hide it.
After all, Kurenai Yuhi has a good relationship with the Hyuga clan, and the fact that her father entrusted her to Kurenai Yuhi means that Kurenai Yuhi is someone she can trust.
There's nothing to hide about myself.
After all, so far, the improvements from Mr. Lin Mo haven't been too dramatic.
Even the most talented people exist.
Hinata's mind was racing. She took a deep breath and looked earnestly at Kurenai Yuhi: "I understand."
"Okay, then let's attack."
Seeing Hinata's expression, Kurenai Yuhi smiled and said, "That's more like it. Children should be lively, not so mature. I won't bully you, and I won't use genjutsu."
With his genjutsu skills, once he unleashed them, he would absolutely crush Hinata.
This is not what I want.
Then, Kurenai encouraged Hinata to attack her.
"It's actually individual training."
Kiba Inuzuka, who had been watching this scene unfold, suddenly widened his eyes: "Kurenai-sensei and Hinata are training alone?"
"It's just Teacher Hong's judgment."
Aburame Shino calmly said, "When we first met Kurenai-sensei, didn't we also attack her together? Kurenai-sensei gave us pointers."
"We were together back then, but now that Hinata is here, she's all alone. How could we possibly participate with Hinata?"
"I want to see just how strong this guy is that he deserves such a high evaluation from Teacher Hong."
Kiba Inuzuka muttered to himself, his eyes fixed on the screen.
The next second, Kiba Inuzuka's eyes widened suddenly: "Such speed!"
Hinata Hyuga lunged forward in an instant, her shuriken gleaming with a cold light, and swiftly slashed towards Kurenai Yuhi's side, her attack both fierce and precise.
"Not bad speed."
Upon seeing this, Kurenai Yuhi revealed a smile of appreciation.
He quickly dodged Hinata's first attack by sidestepping, and his kunai was not idle either. He quickly swung it to block Hinata's next attack.
"Bang!"
Both of them moved extremely fast, as if a fierce battle had broken out in an instant.
As Kurenai dodged, Hinata spun around and swung her shuriken again.
This time, the shuriken, carrying a sharp wind blade, stabbed straight towards Kurenai's chest.
Her movements were fluid and seamless, without the slightest pause.
"Your chakra far surpasses mine."
Seeing Hinata's chakra emanating from her, Shino Aburame adjusted his sunglasses.
At that moment, Kurenai Yuhi swung her kunai at Hinata's shuriken.
The two collided in mid-air, producing a crisp metallic clang.
"Clang! Clang!"
But Hinata didn't stop. She continued to increase her attack speed, moving nimbly around Kurenai Yuhi, constantly wielding her shuriken and attacking Kurenai's vital points.
Every move she made was precise and swift, giving Kurenai no chance to catch her breath.
"That's far from enough, Hinata."
While defending, Kurenai observed Hinata's movements and gently shook her head: "Is that all?"
After a brief exchange, she realized that Hinata currently only possessed far more chakra than others, and had no other formidable abilities.
Even in terms of chakra control, it's not very stable.
This is clearly due to absorbing too much chakra and not continuously training, making it impossible to achieve precise control.
It seems that Hinata's improvement from opening the can wasn't that significant?
At this moment when Kurenai Yuhi was in such a state, Hinata's eyes were filled with determination. She instantly activated her Byakugan, her chakra flowed through her body again, and her body accelerated instantly as she launched a new round of attacks at Kurenai Yuhi.
Kurenai Yuhi's expression turned slightly serious in response.
For a moment, their battle resembled a fierce dance. Hinata's attacks were like a raging storm, while Kurenai Yuhi moved with the wind like a light willow leaf, completely unperturbed.
"not bad."
Sensing the determination and confidence in Hinata's every attack, Kurenai Yuhi chuckled, "Use whatever other tricks you have up your sleeve. Ninjutsu is fine too. Let's see how well you use ninjutsu and offense."
As soon as Kurenai finished speaking, Hinata's gaze became even more focused.
She took a deep breath, quickly took a few steps back, and increased the distance between herself and Kurenai.
In the instant she retreated, Hinata swiftly formed hand seals, her hands moving rapidly and skillfully, without the slightest pause.
Her chakra began to surge rapidly, gathering in her chest, preparing to unleash her current specialty, the Wind Release ninjutsu.
"Wind Release: Vacuum Ball!"
Hinata suddenly opened her arms wide, and powerful chakra transformed into invisible wind blades that shot out from her mouth.
These wind blades shot towards Kurenai like arrows, moving so fast that their trajectories were almost invisible.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
Countless wind blades swept towards the setting sun, each one containing a sharp power, as if it could tear the air apart.
Hinata's chakra fluctuations became even more intense, with each breath causing her chakra to surge out wildly, creating an extremely powerful sense of oppression.
