143 Chapter 143: Disturbing Konohagakure! The "nemesis" of the Whitebeard Pirates!

"What on earth is happening over there?" Iruka, who was preparing to rush to the ninja school for teaching, gazed at a street in the distance. But it was too far away to see clearly.

Iruka could only hear a deafening roar coming from that direction, he could tell it was the explosion of Explosive Tags.

Then... he saw a huge water ball suppressing the continuous explosion.

Until he saw that water ball burst.

A large amount of water rushed around.

In some areas, it was pouring rain.

Iruka's expression was both puzzled and serious.

"Could it be... that there are enemy village ninjas causing trouble in Konohagakure? But the war has been over for several years! Could it be that another ninja village wants to start a war in Konohagakure?"

Such a thing would never happen in the village for no reason.

The sudden explosion and strange water ball could only be Ninjutsu.

Iruka couldn't help but gasp.

He couldn't help but grit his teeth: "What kind of enemy is so crazy to cause such a large-scale serial explosion?"

"I'm afraid a whole street will be affected!"

How many people are there on a whole street? Even at this time, most people are not at home, but have gone to work, but there are still dozens of people, right?

They are all unarmed civilians!

But he was too far away from there, even if he tried his best and ran at full speed, he was afraid it would take more than ten minutes.

Moreover, just now Iruka also saw some very powerful ninjas running towards there.

He also vaguely saw a few familiar faces.

...Sarutobi Asuma.

...Might Guy.

...Hatake Kakashi.

These very powerful Konohagakure Jonin were all rushing towards there.

It seems that he, a Chunin teacher at the ninja school, wouldn't be much help if he went there, he might even hold those people back.

"I hope it has nothing to do with my students." Iruka had a very bad premonition, but he didn't know where this premonition came from.

He knew even more that as a teacher at a ninja school, he couldn't control too many things, he could only hope that his students were safe and sound.

At this point in his thoughts, Iruka couldn't help but give a bitter smile.

Don't look at the many ninjas in Konohagakure village, but once a big event really happens, only Jonin can participate.

...

"...That direction is in trouble! If I remember correctly, it should be the direction where Naruto and the others go to school, right?" Kakashi, who always had a dead fish eye, was rarely anxious.

His figure was quickly jumping on the roofs of the houses.

Originally, Kakashi wanted to sleep in today.

After all, he had already asked the Third Hokage for a half-month long vacation, and he wanted to use this half month to rest well.

As a result, he was awakened by a violent explosion before he could sleep in.

Although he was on vacation, he was still a Konohagakure Jonin after all.

When such a thing happens in the village, he must go and see.

"Explosive Tags... Water Release Ninjutsu... and such a large-scale Water Release Ninjutsu, it wouldn't be that guy Hoshigaki Kisame, would it?"

Kakashi thought about it, there weren't many people in the whole Konohagakure village who could release such a large-scale Water Release Ninjutsu.

Among them, Hoshigaki Kisame was one of them.

"But he shouldn't be the one causing the disturbance, he should be the one suppressing the disturbance." Kakashi analyzed rationally: "So who exactly is the person who detonated so many Explosive Tags?"

"This series of explosions wouldn't be related to Naruto, right?" Kakashi was very troubled. Why couldn't he get a little rest after returning to Konohagakure village?

"Phew... I've arrived!"

Kakashi, who was traveling at full speed, arrived in just a few minutes.

He landed on the roof of a ruined house.

"Hmm?"

Then Kakashi saw Chouji angrily push out with both palms, sending a civilian flying. He watched as the Konohagakure civilian vomited blood in mid-air.

Kakashi's eyelids twitched at the sight.

What on earth had happened that made the little devil of the Akimichi clan attack a civilian?

This hit didn't kill anyone, did it?

But...

Even if it didn't kill, it must have seriously injured, right?

He also saw Naruto, Karin, Haku , Kisame, Shikamaru, Neji, and twenty or thirty other Konohagakure villagers.

He could see the devastation all around. The entire street had been destroyed, with no buildings left intact.

There were traces of explosions and water erosion everywhere, with pits and water stains all over the ground, and a lot of overturned soil. The entire street had been blown up.

If you didn't know... you might think someone had been plowing here.

Looking around, nothing was intact.

He could see that Haku and Neji's clothes were stained with blood, and the other kids were all in a mess.

Kakashi's brain was a bit slow to process.

What on earth is going on?!

"What happened... huh? Kakashi? What are you doing here?" Just then, another figure suddenly landed next to Kakashi. It was none other than Konohagakure Jonin Sarutobi Asuma.

He still had a cigarette in his mouth, and his lips were a bit greasy.

Obviously, he was eating breakfast when he suddenly noticed the commotion here and rushed over without stopping.

Sarutobi Asuma had long since left the Twelve Guardian Ninja.

After all, the village's internal strength was gradually being depleted, and he needed to return to contribute to Konohagakure.

He had been in Konohagakure for over a year now.

In response to Sarutobi Asuma's curious question, Kakashi briefly replied: "I just got here too."

Although he didn't know exactly what had happened, as long as Naruto and the others were safe, Kakashi could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Because he couldn't imagine how angry Whitebeard would be if something happened to Naruto and the others in Konohagakure?

That man would definitely overturn the entire Konohagakure, right?

Even... destroy Konohagakure, right?

Soon.

One after another, Konohagakure Jonin, Anbu ninja, Root ninja, and clan ninja all appeared on this devastated street.

Looking around, there were dozens of people.

Everyone had a serious expression.

The atmosphere became heavy.

In just a short while, so many ninjas had gathered at the scene.

Most of them were Jonin from Konohagakure, as well as elite ninjas from Anbu and Root, which shows the depth of Konohagakure.

Even if Konohagakure's internal strength is now depleted.

It's still much stronger than many other ninja villages.

"Is that kid... Uzumaki Naruto?" Sarutobi Asuma stood next to Kakashi, and he naturally saw Uzumaki Naruto too.

In the entire Konohagakure village, there are very few people who don't know Naruto.

"And that guy..." He then fixed his gaze on Hoshigaki Kisame: "Ex member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist from Kirigakure Village, now a member of the Whitebeard Pirates."

"And the young ones from the Nara clan, Akimichi clan, Hyuga clan, and the young ones from the Whitebeard Pirates."

Asuma suddenly felt a headache.

Why are all these kids gathered together?

What on earth is going on?

"Huh? Hoshigaki Kisami?" Might Guy also arrived at the scene. He saw Hoshigaki Kisame at first glance, but he got Kisame's name wrong. Then he saw Kakashi.

"Is that... the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki?" Special Jonin Kurenai squinted her eyes, her gaze fixed on Naruto. Kurenai of today is not yet Asuma's girlfriend.

Nara Shikaku was taken aback: "Shikamaru? How is this kid here? Didn't he go to school?"

"And that kid Chouji?" Nara Shikaku was a bit stunned.

Only Ino is missing, and the new generation Ino-Shika-Cho would be complete!

"Hey." Asuma broke the eerily silent scene: "Can any of you kids tell me what happened? Where is the 'enemy'?"

"Phew... I'll explain!"

Neji started to speak.

.....

In the distance.

"Hey, hey, hey..." Tobi stood next to Obito, his tone filled with electronic sound, making him seem very strange: "As expected of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, he was able to save everyone in an instant explosion, that kid is really amazing!"

"He has already been able to work with the tailed beast very skillfully! Obito... if this little guy becomes a perfect Jinchuriki, it won't be good for our future plans!"

The plan Tobi was talking about was not a recent one, but a more long-term, bigger plan.

The number of people in the entire ninja world who knew about this plan did not exceed five.

At least, that's what Obito thought.

At this point, Tobi's tone became a bit dissatisfied: "But those kids really have no manners! I just asked them what it feels like to poop, and not one of them was willing to answer me. I was so angry that before I left, I stuffed in dozens of Explosive Tags."

"I originally thought I could blow a few of them up... what a pity, those were more than a hundred Explosive Tags! They're quite expensive!"

"Speaking of which, Obito, you've never told me what it feels like to poop, can't you explain it in detail?"

Tobi's strange tone had been nagging at Obito for a long time.

Listening to him, Obito's forehead even showed a "#".

Obito ignored Tobi's repeated mentions of "poop", he looked at the scene in the distance with cold eyes and snorted: "It's just a little interlude to pass the time, whether they die or not doesn't matter. I believe that Hyuga kid didn't see my face, otherwise he wouldn't have reacted like that."

"Never mind them, it's time to find our 'partner', that young man must have been waiting for a long time, right? Hehe... his proposed 'plan' is really a 'big show'!"

"Partner? Oh! Is it that Uchiha junior?" Tobi suddenly realized: "That guy looks very polite, I wonder if he will explain to me what it feels like to poop?"

Fortunately, Obito has gotten used to Tobi's eccentricity.

This is the most special one among the many White Zetsus, and also a rare good helper for Obito.

Otherwise... he really wanted to cut this chatterbox into pieces, and then throw it directly into the toilet.

Let him have a good smell of what poop smells like.

"But this time you're so high-profile, aren't you afraid of being noticed by the people of Konohagakure? It shouldn't affect your plan, right?"

Tobi finally managed to steer the topic to the main point.

"So What if we get noticed?" The smile under Obito's mask carried a bit of disdain for Konohagakure.

"Can they stop us?"

Obito paused, then continued: "Besides, this is their 'appointed' candidate, who wants to cooperate with us!"

...

"Pops, it's not Karin and the others who had an accident over there, is it?"

Uzumaki Fuushi naturally noticed the commotion as well.

Her eyebrows furrowed slightly: "That's the route Karin and the others take to school. Judging by their walking speed, they are likely to have just passed that place."

Upon analyzing this, Uzumaki Fuushi felt a tightness in her heart.

If it really was Karin and the others who had an accident, with such a large-scale explosion and such a big commotion, wouldn't it be more likely to be bad than good?

"They're all fine." Whitebeard's Observation Haki spread out instantly, and he could feel the breath of Naruto and others.

Whether it's Naruto, or Haku , Karin, Hinata, Kisame.

Their breaths are all very normal.

"Kisame is also over there." Whitebeard said: "If those stupid sons and daughters really have an accident, Kisame will definitely help and save them all."

"That stupid son is very powerful!" Whitebeard grinned: "His Water Release Ninjutsu, if it were in my hometown... it would be even more powerful."

"I see..." Uzumaki Fuushi said after hearing this.

She seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

She still trusts Whitebeard very much.

"Was that the sound of Explosive Tags exploding just now?" Shisui, who couldn't see anything with his eyes, couldn't help but ask curiously: "What's happening in Konohagakure village now?"

"I'm not sure." Uzumaki Fuushi shook her head: "We should know when Kisame comes back."

At this moment, Whitebeard was also looking at the streets in the distance.

Whitebeard's eyes squinted slightly.

The large cloak on his body swayed with the wind.

...

"Hokage-sama! The Anbu have already rushed over."

Inside the Hokage building, an Anbu ninja said to Sarutobi Hiruzen: "Judging by the time, they must have already arrived at the scene, and we will soon know what happened."

"Hmm!" Sarutobi Hiruzen stood by the window with his hands behind his back, looking at the situation in the distance.

For a moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen thought of many enemies.

The Whitebeard Pirates.

Kirigakure Village.

Kumogakure Village.

Sunagakure Village.

Iwagakure Village.

Some Konohagakure renegades.

All of these guys have the possibility of causing trouble in Konohagakure. Among them... the biggest suspects are Whitebeard of the Whitebeard Pirates, and that Hoshigaki Kisame of the Whitebeard Pirates.

The remaining little kids and the descendants of the Uzumaki clan should not be able to make such a big noise.

Whether it's Whitebeard or Hoshigaki Kisame.

Neither of them are easy to deal with.

But Sarutobi Hiruzen really hopes it's not the Whitebeard Pirates causing trouble. If it really is the Whitebeard Pirates, he can't think of who in Konohagakure could stop them?

All the Jonin plus himself as the Hokage together.

Maybe they could stop a Whitebeard?

And there's another Hoshigaki Kisame?

Who's going to stop him?

This is also one of the reasons why Sarutobi Hiruzen doesn't dare to conflict with Whitebeard. The consequence of provoking Whitebeard is that the entire Konohagakure village will be dragged into an irreparable war.

It's no less than starting a ninja war with a large ninja village!

Moreover, Whitebeard poses a greater threat than a large ninja village.

After all, Whitebeard doesn't need to kill to Konohagakure.

He's already in Konohagakure!

...

"Akatsuki? The person causing trouble in Konohagakure is Akatsuki?"

Sarutobi Asuma's eyes widened a bit. When he was one of the Twelve Guardian Ninja, he naturally heard about the famous Akatsuki.

This is a very special organization, somewhat similar to mercenaries, basically, they are all rebel ninjas from various villages.

And in the past two years.

"Akatsuki" has been classified as an extremely dangerous military organization by many countries.

A group of Jonin from Konohagakure village were asking all kinds of questions in front of a group of little kids.

Neji, Naruto, Shikamaru, and others were all actively cooperating.

Basically, whatever this group of Jonin asked, they answered.

Kisame was standing on the side with his arms crossed.

He was sizing up a group of Konohagakure Jonin.

"Mysterious masked man..." Kakashi frowned, he said to Asuma next to him: "I have some impression of this member of the Akatsuki organization, this guy once appeared in the Land of Water. It is said that the reason why the Fourth Mizukage of the Land of Water became so strange is because he was hit by this mysterious masked man's Genjutsu."

"I heard that it's a kind of Sharingan Genjutsu." Kakashi's words drew the attention of the surrounding Konohagakure Jonin.

Asuma was taken aback, his cigarette burning down to the butt before he reacted: "Sharingan Genjutsu? Is the masked man from the Akatsuki organization a member of the Uchiha clan?"

"I don't know." Kakashi shook his head: "He could be a traitor from the Uchiha clan, or he might have obtained a special Sharingan by chance."

"This is a very dangerous group."

Kakashi, with his dead fish eyes, said solemnly: "The fact that they were able to control the Fourth Mizukage for so many years shows that they are more dangerous than anyone can imagine."

"The appearance of Akatsuki members in Konohagakure village, and the fact that they told a child that a 'big show' is about to happen in Konohagakure, is not a good sign."

Nara Shikaku, the current head of the Nara clan, gently stroked the tuft of beard on his chin.

He pondered for a dozen seconds.

Then he said: "Based on this information alone, it's hard to determine what the Akatsuki people want to do in Konohagakure. However, no matter what their ultimate goal is, they have already touched Konohagakure's reverse scale by attacking our people in Konohagakure today."

You should know that his only son almost died in this explosion, that is naturally impossible for him not to be angry.

Even the most wise and calm person would feel resentment and anger towards Akatsuki's.

Nara Shikaku said solemnly: "Immediately check all the foreign population in the village, all unfamiliar faces must be investigated! There are tens of thousands of people in Konohagakure, we should be able to find them."

Kurenai suddenly interjected: "Does that guy carrying a big sword count as an unfamiliar face?"

She quietly pointed to Kisame not far away.

Shikaku was taken aback, his mouth twitched, and he shook his head: "The people of the Whitebeard Pirates are an exception, our relationship with the Whitebeard Pirates this time should be considered an alliance."

"After all..."

Shikaku looked at Naruto, Karin, and Haku .

"Whitebeard's daughters also suffered in this attack, based on my shallow understanding of their 'pirate' style, they will not let this matter rest."

"From the moment they attacked Whitebeard's daughters, the mysterious masked man of the Akatsuki has become their mortal enemy."

"Especially the murderous intent of Hoshigaki Kisame..."

Nara Shikaku sighed: "It's already visible to the naked eye!"
