Chapter 13: Chapter 13: Third Hokage:"Asuma, don’t talk nonsense!"
Hyuga Nàiluò silently looked at the people coming, his bright white eyes showed only indifference.
The Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen.
The Commander of Anbu Sarutobi Shinnosuke.
A bunch of Anbu Shinobi wearing various animal masks to conceal their identity.
'really…..'
Nàiluò thought to himself.
As expected, the Third Hokage arrived to clean up the scene just after the attack, to remove the traces of the ROOT ninja, and at the same time try to divert the suspects of this attack as being spies from other villages.
swish!
Another group of ninjas rushed over.
Headed by the patriarch of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Fugaku.
``Uchiha" is another way of pronouncing "uchiwa" meaning paper fan, which is the clan's symbol. Uchiwa can be used to fan flames, making the flame hotter — referring to the fact that the Uchiha is a clan of Fire Release users. Likewise, the "gunbai-uchiwa" that the crest resembles, is a tool used by military commanders to issue orders to troops. The clan emblem on the ninja clothes at the back also indicated their identities.
'Uchiha clan, why are they here? '
Nàiluò secretly thought.
The Third Hokage also frowned slightly when he looked at Uchiha Fugaku.
Obviously, this group of uninvited guests was also unexpected.
"Lord Third, Captain Fugaku, is there anything wrong?"
(A.N - Fugaku is the captain of the Konoha Police force. I'll address him as such because using Patriarch when addressing them all the time is annoying)
Nàiluò stood on the scorched ground and asked calmly.
"…"
A group of people looked at each other.
Why are you asking what happened ?
Shouldn't we be asking you what happened here?
"Hyuga Nàiluò, what is going on here?"
The Anbu Commander couldn't help taking the lead and asked sharply.
"I was attacked by unknown ninjas. I suspect that they are spies from other villages."
Hyuga Nàiluò said sternly.
"…" Sarutobi Shinnosuke, "?"
confused!
Wasn't this the excuse they were going to use?
Why did it come from Hyuga Nàiluò first?
"Father, he lied!"
Sarutobi Asuma's voice came from far away.
Just now he was shocked by this battle which was beyond his imagination.
Hiding a few hundred meters away, looking at this place, he didn't dare to come over immediately after the battle was over.
After seeing his father, Asuma quickly felt that his father, who he was not in a good relationship with before this day , seemed to be so friendly, and he quickly ran over.
As soon as he got there, he heard Hyuga Nàiluò saying "nonsense".
"Father, he just lied." Sarutobi Asuma, short of breath and panting, repeatedly ran over.
"I witnessed it just now, Hyuga Nàiluò killed three ROOT ninjas !"
As a son of the Hokage, he also knew a little about the ROOT organization.
Therefore, after seeing the same indifference and cruelty of the three ninjas which was common from ROOT, Asuma quickly guessed that this was a ninja from ROOT.
Although he did not understand why ROOT members wanted to kill Hyuga Nàiluò, this did not prevent him from exposing Hyuga Nàiluò's "lie" just now.
"Shut up!"
It wasn't anyone else that said this, but Asuma's father, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen!
Sarutobi Asuma was speechless for a moment, completely confused.
"Asuma, don't talk nonsense!"
"It was the spy from Kumogakure Village who attacked Hyuga Nàiluò. This is the intel that Anbu collected!"
The Third Hokage said extremely harshly.
Sarutobi Asuma's head was though it had question marks floating around.
"I saw it clearly, they clearly had the same indifference that ROOT members…"
Snapped!
Before Asuma finished speaking, Third the Hokage slapped Sarutobi Asuma's across his face and forcibly interrupted his words.
Sarutobi Asuma looked at his pale-faced father and felt like a stranger.
Why did he beat him?
He clearly only told the truth?
Obviously it was Hyuga Nàiluò who was talking nonsense!
He felt aggrieved at first, but now he felt much more aggrieved.
Angrily, Sarutobi Asuma ran away without looking back.
"Asuma!"
Sarutobi Shinnosuke who hadn't figured out the situation yet, and shouted while watching his brother who was running away.
"Don't worry about him!"
The Third Hokage grabbed his eldest son.
It's best for him to run away.
At least no one will be speaking "nonsense" here.
"Hokage-sama, Asuma, he may have read the situation here wrongly. If he accidentally said the wrong thing, you shouldn't be beating the child for such trivial matters~"
Hyuga Nàiluò said lightly.
The Third Hokage turned his icy gaze to Hyuga Nàiluò, and said:
"Young people don't know the length of the sky and the depth of the earth, they speak nonsense and do wrong, and it is our duty to teach them."
Hyuga Nàiluò: "…"
Who are you cursing around here?
"Asuma seems to have some prejudice against me, so he spoke foolishly regardless of the real situation. These kind of people who retaliate because of personal grievances in public affairs should really reflect on them."
Hyuga Nàiluò said with emotion.
The Third Hokage: "…"
Who are you talking about here?
The two looked at each other and were silent for a while, without saying anything on this issue.
"Lord Third, it sounds like a spy from the Cloud Village wanted to take my life. I don't really know what happened?"
Hyuga Nàiluò was silent for a while, then turned to speak.
"What happened?"
Sarutobi Shinnosuke said in a strange tone of confusion:
"It's because the leader of the Cloud Shinobi team died in your hands that they want to retaliate against you!"
"It's so!" Hyuga Nàiluò said in a "surprised" tone, "Is this the information obtained by Mr. Anbu?"
"certainly!"
"I really have to thank Mr. Anbu!"
Hyuga Nàiluò's tone this time sounded very sincere.
"…Shut up!"
The Third Hokage suppressed his anger and whispered to his eldest son.
Sarutobi Shinnosuke: "Uh…"
Did he say something wrong?
"Thank you very much Lord Hokage, and Mr Anbu for your help." Hyuga Nàiluò said in a very "sincere" tone.
"However," Hyuga Nàiluò's expression became a little confused, "How did the spies of the Kumogakure Village know who was the so-called "murderer",and went after me?"
"Also," Hyuga Nàiluò continued, "How did they know my whereabouts? How and why did they know that I would normally practice here?"
"It's Kumogakure village who already has hands and eyes in the village, so I can freely inquire about everything."
"Did someone still leak this information to Kumogakure "
As Hyuga Nàiluò's voice fell, Sarutobi Shinnosuke's face gradually turned pale.
He finally understood what he said wrong just now! *
