Chapter 163: Chapter 162: Messy Izumo
In the early morning, the first rays of the Sun came from the east. Izumo and his friend stretched their bodies, welcoming another early morning after their night shift.
"It's really great that last night was peaceful."
"Yeah, last time Naruto, that brat, broke in without registering. We got scolded badly by our superiors. I hope this kind of thing never happens again."
"Come on, can't you think of something positive?"
"Can't help it. I was really scared last time."
The two of them were joking around and getting ready to go home. By chance, they glanced at the entrance, and there was a large group of people walking straight towards the gatehouse.
"What on earth?"
Izumo couldn't help but shout in his heart. Could it be that his friend's jinx had come true again? God, they had just been criticized, and now this.
"Stop! Who are you? Let me warn you. People like you without access permits will be arrested by the Police Department if you go any further, as you'll be in Konoha Village."
His eyelids twitched, and he and his friend immediately jumped out to block the group's way.
These guys all looked menacing, dressed in distinctive ways with flamboyant hair accessories. They clearly weren't good people. He had to find a way to inform the Police Department quickly.
"Hey, Uncle Izumo, you're actually awake today. Is it time for the shift change?"
"Sakura!"
Taking a closer look, besides Sakura, there were also Yamato, Sai, and Naruto.
But why were they with such a strange group of people?
"It's a long story. We have something important to report to Lady Tsunade. These guys are like sticky glue. We can't shake them off."
Sakura was also helpless. She didn't agree to let Orochimaru and his subordinates come along either. After all, what had happened before was still vivid in her memory, and she really didn't trust these guys.
But there was no other way. She glanced in Sasuke's direction. If they hadn't let these people come along at that time, Sasuke probably wouldn't have come back.
In that case, it was better to let them come together. After all, this was Konoha Village, their base camp. Even if these guys were powerful, they definitely wouldn't dare to take on Konoha single-handedly.
"You... You're Orochimaru!"
Izumo even felt his voice trembling. The mastermind of the last attack on Konoha, who seriously injured the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, and destroyed one-third of Konoha's infrastructure. How could this guy have the nerve to appear at the village entrance so openly?
Thinking of this, Izumo turned around and was about to run. No matter what, he had to deliver the information to the Hokage first today.
"Wait a minute."
Orochimaru's cold and sinister voice made their legs tremble, and his powerful aura pinned them in place.
Looking at the two Ninja with their backs to him, Orochimaru walked forward with a smile, slowly stepped between them, put his hands around their shoulders, and let his long tongue slide across his lips.
"Don't be so tense~ I'm here this time to have a good talk with the Hokage about future cooperation. You're making the atmosphere so tense. People might think we're here to attack Konoha again. Relax."
The two men, their bodies covered in cold sweat, gasped and knelt down the moment Orochimaru let go of them. Their pupils dilated extremely, and they had no strength left in their bodies.
"Alright, you can go and report to Tsunade now. Remember not to be too nervous and don't run too fast. I'm here to discuss cooperation."
Feeling that Orochimaru had no intention of killing them, Izumo helped his friend up and left without looking back.
"Oh dear~ They're really timid. I didn't do anything terrible. I didn't even release a bit of killing intent, yet they're already scared to the point of having weak knees."
"Of course. Who wouldn't be afraid when facing Lord Orochimaru?"
After everyone had chatted here for a while, the police officers in black uniforms rushed over from afar all at once. They stood inside the Konoha Gate, and the two forces faced each other from a distance.
"Orochimaru, how dare you come here! I'll settle the score with you for destroying Konoha last time."
Shisui drew out his tantō from his back and waved it gently. Even though it was morning, the chilling aura brought by the tantō made people shiver involuntarily.
"Shisui Uchiha, don't be too excited. I'm here to discuss cooperation with Tsunade this time, and it's also for this kid."
After Orochimaru finished speaking, he slightly shifted his body to the side, and Sasuke, with his arms crossed in front of his chest, appeared in front of everyone.
Shisui's pupils shrank involuntarily. Looking at that familiar yet strange face, just as he was about to say something, someone was quicker than him. They took a big stride forward and directly hugged Sasuke in their arms.
"Sasuke, you're back."
"Yeah, I'm back after finishing the business."
Shisui was completely confused by this sight. Were they going to fight or not in this kind of touching scene of brothers reuniting?
"Itachi, be careful. These guys might have done something to Sasuke."
Shisui reminded worriedly. Itachi came back to his senses in the warm family affection, and his eyes, like sharp blades, scanned the others.
Orochimaru took a silent step back. He didn't want to get accidentally injured here.
"Brother, it's okay. These are all the subordinates I've gathered. I can only talk about the specific process after seeing the Hokage."
Sasuke grabbed Itachi who was about to step forward. Although his brother was also very powerful, each of them is not a pushover.
Just let the two sides confront each other and release some killing intent. There's no need to actually fight.
"It's impossible to see the Hokage. These extremely dangerous guys are not allowed to even take a step into Konoha Village, let alone see the Hokage. I absolutely won't allow it."
Shisui pointed his tantō at the ground and slid it gently. A clear and sharp line appeared in front of everyone.
"I can spare your lives, but remember, there are conditions. Once anyone dares to cross this line, no mercy!"
Shisui said casually. This was the biggest concession he could make.
"Sasuke, Naruto, come on, let's go home first. We'll talk about the rest later."
Itachi pulled Sasuke and called Naruto. They took a big step across the line and walked forward without any concern.
Shisui was stunned on the spot and shouted inwardly.
"Itachi, can't you give me some face?"
"I've just thrown down the gauntlet... QAQ"
"No, brother. I have something important to discuss with the Hokage. You come with me too."
"Ah, okay."
Itachi didn't ask about the specific matter. He instinctively trusted his younger brother.
"You guys, follow me."
The remaining people looked at each other. Upon hearing Sasuke's words, they didn't hesitate to cross the line.
"Sorry to disturb you."
Kimimaro was very polite when he crossed the line and greeted Shisui.
(′╥ω╥`)
Left alone, Shisui watched the others walking away, feeling at a loss like a leaf in the wind...
