The Thousand Faces of Konoha's Weird Man

153 Ninja Army

Although Jiraiya's words were objective and reasonable, they still did not dispel Kakashi's doubts, especially at such a sensitive moment, any coincidence would be infinitely magnified.

"Then Naruto, please ask Jiraiya-sama to appease you. They seem to be fighting hard against the jinchūriki of the Suna Ninja."

"Hey, you guy, you are their instructor."

Things on Naruto's side were naturally dangerous, especially when Jiraiya paid special attention to Naruto. Because the third generation did not die in the physical sense, Orochimaru did not have as much influence on Konoha's invasion this time as imagined, but Hokage's coma was also a very troublesome matter.

Due to Sakichi's intrusion, the damage suffered by Orochimaru and Sarutobi Hiruzen was controlled within an acceptable range, of course on the surface.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's life would be worse than death, perhaps not much better than dying directly.

Orochimaru did not seem to have lost his ninjutsu, but he was forced to use corpseless reincarnation, and his losses were not only that. Saki's follow-up plan allowed him to lose his pants, and perhaps use his own hands to truly replace them. Letting go of Konoha's decline would be a better choice.

Time is irreversible and there is no room for regret. It is completely meaningless to use what has happened to compare what may happen.

As for what Kakashi wants to do, of course he needs to verify all the doubts he has thought of.

The first thing he found was the white-clad ANBU leader.

"Did Wakayama specifically ask to take part in the job of guarding the third generation before the Chunin Exams, and the third generation also acquiesced?"

"Was Orochimaru also injured by that assassin?"

"You haven't seen anything about the three generations of strange techniques. I've never heard of such a thing."

Next is the Hyuga clan who are responsible for on-site security.

"The assassins ambush the venue in advance, but you didn't notice it."

Finally, it’s Morino Hiki

"The brain and body were severely damaged, and there are obvious signs of physical transformation and long-term condensation of water attribute chakra."

As for Yamanaka Haiichi, his work is still continuing, but from the face of Morino Hiki, Hatake Kakashi has already seen that this battered body may not be able to get the information he wants.

"Then the last clue is left, and the most important clue is the ANBU who intercepted the assassin."

But the answer is no longer satisfactory

"Is leaving Konoha a task directly given by the Third Generation?"

"I know my identity is no longer my current identity, but can I reveal some of his affairs within a controllable range?"

"Is he a ninja recommended by Gen? He is good at water escape and is outstanding among others."

As a person caught between generations of geniuses, Kakashi's talent is not particularly outstanding. The master is Namikaze Minato, who is recognized as the representative of Konoha's golden generation. His teammate Lin is also talented and can even be a jinchuriki. Even Uchiha Itachi, who is about the same age, has outstanding military achievements and even single-handedly destroyed his own family. , even the "Obito" he didn't know had quietly grown into the source of chaos in this world. Even the children Jiraiya randomly picked up were children of destiny with the Samsara Eye.

This makes Kakashi standing among them nothing outstanding. Metkai also has the ultimate move of Eight Door Dungeon. Kakashi can only provide some debuffs or control skills at most. There is still a fundamental difference between the No. 1 position. Even if the time of their ultimate move is short, it can still turn the tide of the battle. Our 50-50 opening sounds like everyone else's 50-50 opening at best, but it doesn't do anything at all. Use it, but it doesn't work.

But because of this, he is one of the most charming characters in Naruto

It can't be said how hard he works. With his Buddhist look, he can't seem to work hard no matter how hard he looks.

Then we can only say that he is smart enough

Even the intuition is terrifyingly accurate

His chakra is not strong, his escape technique is not buggy, and he does not even have a plug-in. He finally got a golden finger but only had half of the authority. The most annoying thing is that his golden finger was opened by the enemy's big boss. back door.

He didn't even inherit his father's perverted physical skills

However, this is not a problem. He does not have what the protagonist of this world should have, but he still looks like the protagonist.

All it depends on is perseverance in using your brain.

It is precisely because he is too smart that he looks like he has seen through the world. For everything, he can consider the overall situation, and his actions also go straight to the essence. The metaphor is that this guy is equivalent to the key man. His ability is not the strongest, but he can be of great use at critical moments.

Every protagonist should have such a character beside him, just like Sanji and Naruto's Zoro next to Luffy is Uchiha Sasuke.

Judging the situation requires complete intelligence in addition to outstanding intelligence.

Therefore, Kakashi took the lead in collecting information before making a judgment.

Sakichi and Wakayama have always had a single line of contact, and they have the third generation's endorsement. Kakashi has not received first-hand information. But just the information disclosed within the ANBU was enough for Kakashi to see many problems.

There is no perfect crime in the world. The more perfect the crime, the more clues will be revealed. Crimes of passion are really unsolvable because the police have no way to follow the motive and find clues. Just like Sakichi, if it was really on a whim, he stabbed the third generation without showing his face. Then God, he can think of him as having no grievances in the past and no enmity in the recent times. He doesn't even have any intersection with the third generation. Who would think that such a person can do such a thing.

As long as enough information is collected, a smart person can completely outline the event in his mind.

This is what Kakashi Hatake is doing

The first thing that made him suspicious was the information provided by Hinata. He was 100% sure that this assassin knew everything about Konoha, even all the arrangements for the Chunin Exams, including Orochimaru's plan. Otherwise, he would not have been able to do it at all. He sneaked into the Four Purple Flame Formation silently, no, he ambush in the Four Purple Flame Formation in advance.

What's even more suspicious is that he actually hurt Orochimaru along with him. This was obviously not Orochimaru's intention.

Then there is only one possibility. He represents the opposing force of the Third Generation of Konoha or the strange voice in Orochimaru's camp. There are too many such characters, and even Kabuto is very suspicious.

And such people have enough means or connections to allow assassins to ambush at predetermined locations in advance, and even block Baiyan's detection.

Squeezing his eyebrows in pain, Kakashi couldn't think of who was the most suspicious for a moment: "But the label of the assassin himself is really obvious."

When the reasoning of the case cannot be continued, it is suspicious to change the thinking mode. We consider the problem from the perspective of the assassin.

The problem is that the assassins have been killed, what else do you have to think suspiciously about?

Of course, Kakashi's thinking is still different from ordinary people. The first thing is the performance of the assassin. The king in the first half and the bronze in the second half. This huge gap makes Kakashi feel a strong sense of violation.

The second violation is the third generation's son, Sarutobi Wakayama. He knows best what kind of person Wakayama is. He is sincere but unremarkable. This is why he has only been Sarutobi Hiruzen's right-hand man until now. Because such a person cannot stand alone. But if he said that he wanted to harm the third generation, Kakashi was the first to not believe it, but his actions made Kakashi feel strongly violated. The timing of his appearance was too perfect, as if he had foreseen the development of things, which was terrifying.

The only thing that doesn't make sense is that since he had foreseen that the third generation was in danger, why didn't he take action as soon as possible?

Okay, back to the assassin, such a sophisticated assassination plan was laid out, and even the timing of the assassination was so perfect. Even Kakashi didn't understand the mysterious ninjutsu. Orochimaru took action at the critical moment of the wrestling match and destroyed two flags of Konoha in one fell swoop. This kind of vision, this kind of courage, this kind of wisdom, could actually be defeated by the ANBU who rushed out somewhere. What made Kakashi feel that his intelligence was insulted the most was the other party's dress, blatantly pretending to be Kiri. Shadow Ninja, how much hatred does he have to have against the Kingdom of Water to do such a thing? If the autopsy report also proves that this guy is a genuine Kirikage ninja, then Kakashi can be 100% sure that this is a top tank. exist.

The proof is the Anbu Touha who met Kirikage.

A master of swordsmanship, proficient in water escape, and young enough. Doesn’t this setting look familiar? Isn’t it the character of an assassin? While this assassin was completing his mission, he encountered a creature with similar attributes to himself. Ye Anbu, this probability is just like the chance of finding the murder weapon in the suspect's room. The result of scientific demonstration is only 5%.

A small probability time is almost equal to an impossible event, especially when the samples are sparse, then Kakashi can only think that this is a man-made coincidence.

In addition, this thing comes from the root, and a complete line of events has been outlined in Kakashi's mind.

Therefore, when you watch criminal investigation, reasoning, and the like, sometimes you don’t necessarily lament that your brain is not strong enough, nor do you need to exclaim that the screenwriter is extremely imaginative. Due to the asymmetry of information, your IQ cannot occupy the high ground of intelligence. Especially detectives from decades ago. We are all from different eras. You don’t have the knowledge reserves that you should have in that era. How can you compete with Sherlock Holmes? The screenwriter of Conan has so many enhancements. How can you follow it with your own brain? People versus people. Even modern criminal investigation does not rely on reasoning, but on big data and the vast ocean of the people. It takes a few hours to solve the case. It is not the arresting people who are awesome, but the people who sit in front of the surveillance camera and watch the surveillance. Damn, Aunt Chaoyang is awesome.

When the information is relatively equal, Kakashi can be restored by Saki's thinking. However, the gap in information means that Kakashi's brain circuit is not yet complete, and he has not clearly seen the powerful relationship. However, he has already Sakichi listed him as the first suspect, and also targeted the guy who contacted him in Konoha, that was Danzo. After all, he was a person with a criminal record. He was very sure that this was another assassination attempt by Danzo using the Chunin Exam. .

"But before I caught that guy, I didn't have any evidence at all." What makes Kakashi difficult now is where the ninja named Toruha went. And with the authorization of the third generation, what is the origin of a person? How to gain the trust of the third generation, "The key to the matter still lies with Wakayama."

So where did our Zoji go?

He was heading towards the border between Land Country and Fire Country. Because of the incident in Konoha, this area had become a vacuum. There would be no people from Konoha to help Sakichi, and no people from Sound Ninja. To block.

In this area, there is a hidden valley. Under the seemingly calm appearance, there is a chilling atmosphere.

If you look closely, you will see that densely packed gray-clothed ninjas occupy almost all the treetops in the valley. There are thousands of them without counting. Regardless of the quality, at least the quantity is enough to subvert the regime.

The leaders were anxiously discussing something at Taniguchi. The leader was also an acquaintance of everyone, Hattori Chijun.

"Lord Qianjun, although we Hundred Ghosts have taken your money, it is not a problem for us to wait here. You must know that at this time, the price of mercenaries is changing all the time." The speaker was He was obviously one of the leaders. He was tall and muscular, like a human-shaped cat, exuding a dangerous aura. Half of the respirator mask blocked the lower half of his face, and Taki-nin's forehead hung on his forehead, only a scratch ruined the beauty.

What's even weirder is the armor wrapped around his right arm, which looks very much like the style from the Warring States Period, the kind used by the first and second generations. But this thing of his is obviously not protective gear, because there is an eagle-like bird sitting on the protruding armor. The source of this group of people's anxiety also came from the short-haired beast that had just fallen. The strong man took a sealed scroll that conveyed information from its feet. After seeing clearly the content on the scroll, the group of them immediately Don't calm down.

"It seems that things are going very smoothly." Although I look down on these guys who pick up their chopsticks to eat and put down their bowls to curse. But Qianjun also knew that he still had to rely on them, so he had no choice. He had to lower his profile. But a low profile does not mean he is cowardly. He still needs to make the relationship clear, "You must have gotten the information about the start of the war." "

"certainly"

"You must have such poor brains that you cannot think about the inevitable connection between the reason why I hired you and the occurrence of this war."
