Uchiha Akaishi Tour

Chapter 113 Concealment

Chapter 115 Concealment

By the time Sakumo Hatake discovered the unexpected incident during the Chunin Exams, it was already too late!

Six members of the Anbu responsible for maintaining security during the Chunin Exams were killed, and a team of Genin from Kawaguchi were also wiped out.

However, Madara Uchiha was also in poor condition and had to retreat after discovering that Sakumo Hatake was leading a team.

The appearance of an unknown powerful individual during the Chunin Exams, who attacked and killed Konoha ninjas and controlled ninjas from other villages, has alarmed the Konoha leadership and made them very nervous.

Fortunately, Lanwu and Akaishi were unharmed, as were the other hidden villages. The only village with any low-ranking ninja killed was Kawagakure—if death was inevitable, Kawagakure was the best outcome.

For Konoha, the death of their own child is heartbreaking, but the death of someone else's child could easily cause a diplomatic incident.

Kawakami Village doesn't care —

Anyway, he's getting beaten up by Amegakure, so he has to stick close to Konoha no matter what. He doesn't even have a chance to join the anti-Konoha camp!

However, in order to minimize the impact of the matter, Konoha prefers to handle it discreetly.

Just as Shinnosuke and the Hyuga brothers were about to move Akaishi and Ranmai away, Hatake arrived.

"Prosecutor Hatake, Ranmai and Akaishi—" Shinnosuke breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing him.

"I already know—just hand over the Kawa ninja corpses to us, as for them—" Hatake looked at Akaishi and Ranma, hesitated for a moment, and then used medicine to wake the two of them up first.

Hatake felt that they should be taken away for medical treatment, which meant they should be removed from the exam.

If it weren't for the "Joint Chunin Exams," Hatake would have wanted to call off the exams immediately!

But for now, no matter what, I must pretend to be nonchalant.

Otherwise, if they mess up even the "Joint Chunin Exams," it will only make people feel that Konoha has already weakened.

Since the exam must continue, and considering that this is Akaishi and Ranma's own exam, we should respect their decision. However, if the exam is to continue, no outsiders can help them, otherwise the other examiners will not agree!

At this point, Hatake used only a stimulant to wake the two men up.

Seeing that Hatake glanced at him, Shinnosuke took the initiative and said, "Hiashi, Hizashi, let's go and keep watch around the area."

The Hyuga brothers understood what this meant and didn't linger, giving Hatake space to question them privately.

"Cough cough—hiss—" Akaishi was choked awake, coughed twice, and then felt a sharp pain in his ribs.

"Jonin Hatake? Someone attacked the Chunin Exams!" Akaishi shouted immediately after recognizing the person in front of him.

"We already know that in addition to those three Kawa ninja, several other ANBU members have also died—what happened to those three Kawa ninja? Were they fighting you?" Hatake asked.

"That's right, but—he was probably also controlled by that old man," Akaishi explained.

"Old man? Who is he?" Hatake asked in detail when he heard that they had met someone who seemed to be the mastermind.

"I don't know." Akaishi honestly shook his head.

At first he thought it was that nameless weapon, but then he realized—it didn't seem to be!

However, Akaishi thought of the other person's eyes—

"However—his eyes seem to be—"

"Rinnegan." Lan Wu woke up at this moment and interrupted Akashi.

"Rinnegan?" Hatake's pupils contracted upon hearing this.

Although it hasn't appeared for thousands of years, it is, after all, the eye of the legendary Sage of Six Paths!

Even Hatake couldn't remain calm upon hearing the name.

"You guys—did you see it clearly?" Hatake asked to confirm further.

"Yes, it's the Rinnegan. When he was controlling those three Kawa ninja, those three Kawa ninja also had Rinnegan patterns in their eyes, and—" Akaishi was about to say something.

Lan Wu interrupted again, "We can't be mistaken, it's definitely the Rinnegan, and his power is unlike any ninja we've encountered before—"

As Lan Wu spoke, she began to tell Hatake Sakumo about the strength of the three Kawa ninja when they were controlled, as well as the power that the old man had displayed at the time.

As he recounted these strange abilities, Hatake's expression turned serious.

Lan Wu also mentioned that the person seemed to have a past grudge against Konoha, possibly harboring resentment towards the Second Hokage.

After recounting the battle, Hatake glanced at Ranma's injured area—she had already treated herself and applied the Hyuga clan's secret external wound medicine.

Immediately, Hatake couldn't help but ask, "That kunai pierced you through? And now you—"

In Hatake's common sense, that was not an injury that ordinary medical ninjutsu could handle!

Unless, by some chance, no organs are damaged and the blow simply passes through her body.

"I did damage my kidneys back then, but—" Lan Wu said, looking at Chi Shi.

"It is—our Uchiha clan's secret kidney-tonifying technique. You can ask Clan Chief Kensuke for details." Seeing Lan Wu looking at him, Akashi said directly.

Hatake:————

Hatake didn't plan to ask!

In this regard, he only needs to report the facts to his superiors.

Since it's been described as a "secret technique," and even—it's supposed to be for kidney tonification—it's best not to inquire further.

Who would have thought that the Uchiha clan would need secret techniques to replenish their kidneys?

Of course, Akaishi didn't think that much about it. In his mind, even if Jonin Hatake really asked the clan head, the clan head would think that it was some kind of wonderful use of "Immersed Demon God" and would naturally help Akaishi cover up the lie.

Anyway, secret techniques don't really need to be explained very clearly, otherwise, not only the Uchiha clan, but even the Ino-Shika-Cho trio would probably object!

"Do you still want to participate in the Chunin Exams?" After learning about the attack, Hatake asked Akaishi and Ranma to confirm whether they should continue.

"certainly!"

"etc----"

Lan Wu immediately agreed, while Chi Shi hesitated.

"You still want to participate? You should withdraw first—I'll go meet up with Minato." Akaishi said to Ranma.

Lanwu's injuries were severe, while Chishi's were in better condition.

If the scroll hadn't been with Akaishi, Akaishi would have wanted to send it to Minato, and he and Ranma would have quit together.

"Don't underestimate medical ninjas!" Lan Wu said matter-of-factly.

"This is no small matter—" Akaishi said helplessly.

Hatake then said, "If you want to continue the exam, in order to be fair, we will not give you any extra help. Although we will be more vigilant against outsiders affecting the exam, there is nothing we can do if other candidates attack you."

"Examiner Hatake, we've made up our minds. We want to continue the exam!" Ranmai said.

"Why don't you take the scroll and I'll head out first?" Akaishi said deliberately.

"Shut up!" Lan Wu completely ignored Chi Shi's suggestion and made the decision for him as well.

Meanwhile, Shinnosuke and the others, seeing that the important matter was over, noticed that the surrounding ANBU had returned and no longer stopped them from going forward.

Upon hearing Hatake, Akaishi, and Ran mention the Chunin Exams, Shinnosuke volunteered, "We can look after them for a few days, just 1 point per day!"

Upon hearing this, Chishi covered his face in dismay, and Lanwu was even less likely to give up now.

After confirming that the two of them would continue the exam, Hatake left with the corpses of the three Kawa ninja.

Of course, what made Akaishi breathe a little easier was that Jonin Hatake had just said that he would be more vigilant against outsiders affecting the exam.

and----

Although it wasn't explicitly stated, it's easy to guess that they will definitely focus on Lanwu and Chishi from now on!

Although that old geezer was strong, he looked very weak, otherwise he wouldn't have fled immediately upon realizing someone was coming.

So now, the only thing to guard against is the danger that may occur during the exam.

After Hatake left, Shinnosuke continued, "One point a day, how many days can you hire us?"

not cheap.

However, Akaishi understood that Shinnosuke was just looking for an excuse to help.

While it may not be cheap for others, it's not a big deal for Class 3 to lose 1 point a day.

"Three days is enough!" Akashi and Lanwu said after exchanging a glance.

It's not that I'm reluctant to give up the points, it's that I don't want to delay the third shift for too long.

In three days, Akaishi was able to recover most of his combat strength, and Lanwu, with her medical ninjutsu, was also able to recover enough to move around—but she would definitely only be able to stay in Tanabata or the post town, recuperating while completing missions that did not require direct combat.

"You're going to Shuba Town next, right?" Shinnosuke confirmed.

"That's right." Akaishi nodded.

"Let's ambush and kill some other genin around here for the first two days, and then head to the post town on the third day," Shinnosuke decided.

The third group was obviously also heading to the post town.

This will only delay things by two days. Besides, this place is between Shukubacho and Tanzakucho. The Hyuga brothers can look around here to see if there are any genin who can travel between the two places.

Since Chief Examiner Hatake had just been there, Shinnosuke changed his approach and simply rested where he was.

Avoiding Shinnosuke and the others, Akaishi privately spoke with Ranma: "Why didn't you mention that the old man had—"

--that?"

What Akaishi didn't say was, of course, the "Sharingan"!

Although the other person's Sharingan seemed to be only a transitional form, both of them did see that the other person had Sharingan when they first awakened it.

Just as Chishi was about to speak, Lanwu interrupted him and then deliberately prevented him from saying it.

"Since we know they're not from the village and the power they're using isn't the Sharingan, let's not cause any unnecessary trouble," Lan Wu said matter-of-factly.

Because the Third Hokage had specifically sought out Lan Wu to discuss transferring Akaishi out of Team 7, Lan Wu gained a deeper understanding of the "Uchiha clan's predicament."

That person might have Uchiha blood, or he might simply possess the Rinnegan and be able to simulate the Sharingan. Lan Wu wasn't sure; she only knew that he was definitely not a member of the Uchiha clan in the village!

Given this, Lan Wu felt that rashly revealing this matter might further worsen the relationship between the Uchiha clan and the village's higher-ups, leading to mutual suspicion and internal strife.

"After you get back, do some research within your clan—but don't tell them directly that the person you saw had Sharingan!" Lan Wu specifically reminded her.

After hesitating for a while, Akaishi finally said, "Thank you."

Lan Wu rolled her eyes at him and ignored him.
