It's been 24 years, why am I reincarnated in Konoha without a system?

Chapter 193 The First Appearance of the Snake's Shadow, The Technique of Separating the Soul an

"Lord Hokage, is there some misunderstanding? If there's a problem with my design, we can definitely revise it and discuss it again!" Seeing that they were surrounded, Qian came back to his senses and forced himself to remain calm.

Given his strength, it's impossible for him to escape. He can only try to leave this place first and then seize an opportunity to escape!

"Misunderstanding?" Kakashi spoke first, his gaze sharp. "Anbu Kisuke, you're not unfamiliar with this person, are you?"

"What?!" Upon hearing this, Qian's expression changed drastically, realizing he was doomed! If it were just suspicion, he would still have a chance to escape, but now that the Dark Division member he had divided and sealed had appeared, he would definitely be captured and tortured.

Damn it! Who on earth broke his seal?!

"It seems you really are problematic. Sagi, you were one of my capable subordinates, yet you actually did something to harm the village." Kakashi sighed, secretly giving Ishikawa a look.

"Damn it! I won't let you catch me." Almost simultaneously, the Jonin named Sakai suddenly threw a smoke bomb with a ferocious expression, and rushed towards the Daimyo like an arrow.

Although there were two secret guards there, kidnapping the daimyo was his only way out, and he had no choice but to fight to the death!

"Whoosh...whoosh..."

In the blink of an eye, just as the smoke bombs exploded and everyone was about to retaliate, two afterimages of flashing electric arcs erupted simultaneously with lightning speed.

A blue figure appeared in front of the daimyo with near-instantaneous speed to provide emergency protection, while another figure appeared in front of the daimyo only half a beat later and threw a punch.

"boom!!"

Before Qian could even see what was happening, he felt a tremendous force slam into his chest and was sent flying backward. To everyone's horror, he crashed through the wall, slamming into the outer wall and turning the thick structure into a spiderweb pattern…

"Hiss! Ishikawa-senpai is so violent!!" Naruto's eyes almost popped out of their sockets when he saw this, he never expected that Ishikawa's punch would be so powerful.

Remembering that he had previously doubted his senior's strength, Naruto subconsciously shrank his neck and hurriedly shook his head.

No, he didn't. He had absolutely no objection to his senior becoming a Jonin!

"This kind of power? I've only ever seen it in one other person..."

"Tsunade? It's been so long since I've seen a scene like this."

"But how does this kid know this trick? Could he possibly be able to contact Lady Tsunade?"

"Mitarashi Ishikawa, I thought he was best known for his swordsmanship and lightning release after defeating Hayate, but I didn't expect his taijutsu to be so surprising as well!"

Koharu and Inoichi Shikaku instinctively exclaimed in surprise, then exchanged a glance and looked at the Third Hokage.

"Yes, Ishikawa inherited the Thousand Hands Strength from Tsunade." The Third Hokage nodded with a wide grin, he hadn't expected Ishikawa to be able to use his superhuman strength.

I thought Ishikawa was only honing his swordsmanship and lightning release techniques, but I never expected that he could also apply his Thousand Hands Strength in actual combat.

"Hahaha... Third Hokage, it seems your Konoha has produced another genius ninja." The Fire Country Daimyo said in a hoarse voice, waving his fan, and then looked at Kakashi, who was guarding him. "By the way, this guy is that brat's teacher, and he looks like a very powerful ninja as well."

He had witnessed Kakashi unleashing a similar lightning release that was even more powerful.

"Is that so? But you're not wrong, Daimyo. Kakashi is now an elite member of Konoha who is no less than me, and his teacher was the Fourth Hokage, the hero who once saved Konoha. Who knows, Kakashi might even succeed the Fifth Hokage! Hehehehe..." The Third Hokage laughed again, taking the opportunity to demonstrate Konoha's strength in an effort to minimize the impact of this accident.

"Oh? The disciple of the Fourth Hokage..." The Daimyo glanced at Kakashi with surprise, then smiled knowingly after looking at him with a deep gaze.

While they were exchanging pleasantries, Ishikawa appeared before the dazed Sakai in a blur and pried him off the wall.

"Squad Leader Shikaku, what should we do with this guy now?" Ishikawa, carrying his sword, dodged Kakashi and went straight to Shikaku to ask.

He didn't want to ask Kakashi about something as sensitive as Konoha's protective netting and cause trouble for his teacher and himself!

"Inoichi, it's up to you." Shikaku nodded and turned to look at his old friend, Yamanaka Inoichi.

Without further ado, Yamanaka Inoichi, who had known each other for many years, placed one hand on Sabi's head and activated the Yamanaka Secret Technique to read information.

In less than a minute, Yamanaka Inoichi's expression changed drastically. "Orochimaru!!"

"What? Orochimaru!!" Upon hearing the name that Inoichi blurted out, Shikaku and Koharu-mon Homura, who was standing next to him, both changed color.

"Xiang, you escort the Daimyo back to rest first." The Third Hokage's smile faltered as he turned to give the order to the Anbu, then looked at Ishikawa and Naruto. "Ishikawa, please take Naruto and deliver Sabin to the interrogation department to Ibiki."

"Yes, Hokage-sama." Ishikawa was taken aback, but outwardly remained calm and urged Naruto to leave.

He initially thought it was the Kagemusha group pulling the strings behind the scenes, but he never expected it to be Orochimaru!

Thinking of the Konoha Crush plan that would soon begin, Ishikawa suddenly realized. The real invasion operation was not as simple as it appeared in the story.

Without intelligence about Konoha's defensive network, how could Orochimaru and Sunagakure have secretly attacked the city from outside the village?

"Hey, senior! Can I skip that torture department?" Just as Ishikawa was lost in thought, Naruto, who was following behind him carrying a scythe, suddenly called out.

As he spoke, he put down the unconscious sword from behind him and leaned against the wall with a bashful expression.

"What? Is something wrong?" Ishikawa turned his head suspiciously. Was this guy trying to slack off and run away?

"Uncle Qijie said he doesn't have much time left and wants me to buy a bunch of tulips to put in front of his wife's grave."

"Is that so..." Ishikawa paused slightly, then looked at Naruto's side as if remembering something, "Kisuke-senpai, can't you recover from this state?"

"No, Uncle's body is already dead. Even if the spell is broken, it won't make any difference. He's already satisfied that Sakai's plot has been exposed!" Naruto said dejectedly as he listened to the voice in his ear, causing Ishikawa to wave his hand helplessly.

Such is the cruelty of the ninja world; self-sacrifice happens every day to protect the village or a particular person...

However, this is also an opportunity. Watching Naruto leave, Ishikawa looked at the unconscious Sabito beside him and a thought struck him.

Knowing yourself and your enemy is the key to victory. He needs to know how much information about Orochimaru has been leaked to Konoha because of his butterfly effect, so he won't be caught off guard later.

He simply picked up the halberd and made him lower his head to look at him.

Staring into those dull, lifeless eyes, Ishikawa walked on, his right eye moving as he activated his eye technique. In the next instant, Ishikawa's consciousness silently entered Sakai's brain.

[So that's how it is. This guy was just Orochimaru's pawn for gathering intelligence on Konoha?]

[Having received orders from above to gather information and modify Konoha's defensive network as much as possible, they were completely unaware of the Konoha Crush plan.]

【Huh? What is this?? The technique of separating the soul from the body…】
