Shimura Danzo appeared at the right time and stopped the ninjas who were welcoming the Sannin. "Well, the Sannins have completed such a difficult task, and they must be very tired. Let them rest first!"

Now, even the most clueless ninjas noticed something and scattered, but they probably had all kinds of speculations in their minds!

Mo Congfeng greeted Aburame Shixiong and the other two, first asking them if they were injured and the outcome of the battle. He praised and encouraged them a few words, then asked them to go back and rest.

In the end, he left Aburame Shixiong by his side. Mo Congfeng hesitated for a while and decided to tell him the bad news first, "Shixiong, Aburame Ryoma died in the mission, and his body has been handed over to professionals by Uchiha Fugaku!"

To Mo Congfeng's surprise, Aburame Shio showed extraordinary calmness, "This is a battlefield, this is normal, this is a cruel war! I have seen too much, countless ninjas have sacrificed, and countless ninjas will sacrifice..."

Mo Congfeng gently patted Aburame Shixiong's shoulder and couldn't help asking the question, "What happened to the three ninjas? I think their expressions are not right!"

Aburame Shio sighed, "Princess Tsunade's brother, the only male of the Senju clan, Nawaki, died! The team Nawaki was in was wiped out, no one came back alive!"

Mo Congfeng was stunned for a moment, then he understood the reason behind the three ninjas' behavior today.

Aburame Shio continued, "It's really fate that Nawaki's body was first discovered by Princess Tsunade on her way back! I never thought that such a noble ninja would die so carelessly."

"He is the descendant of the Senju clan, and a disciple of Lord Orochimaru, one of the Three Ninjas. His sister is Lady Tsunade, who is famous for her medical ninjutsu throughout the Five Great Nations! When he was in the Ninja School, he was called a genius very early on. The only one who could be compared to him was Minato Namikaze, the new disciple of Jiraiya, one of the Three Ninjas!"

"If he could continue to grow steadily, he would definitely become the Hokage of Konoha Village in the future! Unfortunately, after becoming a formal ninja, he died so easily in his first battle. It is said that he died in a bombing attack by the air ninjas!"

"He had a sister as skilled as Princess Tsunade who was a medical ninja, but he couldn't be saved! It is said that when the body was found by Princess Tsunade, some of its internal organs were missing. It is really fate's trick! The damn Kirigakure ninja actually did something that insulted the remains of a ninja!"

Hearing that some of the corpse's internal organs were missing, Mo Congfeng thought of Zhongji's body during the fusion process, and it seemed that it had also been swallowed by Beiluhu and fused with a piece of internal organs!

Mo Congfeng didn't dare to think about it anymore. The targets of the several times that Beiluhu chose to fuse the Kiraya no Jutsu were all ninjas from enemy countries. He shouldn't attack his fellow villagers, right? After all, he had already fused four times, so he would probably have four bloodline limits!

However, there are indeed many suspicious points about the death of Nawaki. The first suspicious point is that the bombing attack by the Aerial Ninja seemed to have only occurred on the first day after the mission began, because Mo Congfeng launched the assassination attempt on Zhongji in the evening of that day, and the three ninjas should have launched an attack on the leader of the Aerial Ninja at the same time.

If Rope Tree died in the bombing of the Aerial Ninja, then the ninjas injured in the bombing would have already retreated to the village, and Rope Tree's body should have been discovered early.

Mo Congfeng rested for a night, and was attacked by the Six-Tails Jinchuriki that night. He returned to the village in the afternoon of the second day.

The three ninjas returned here early this morning, which was the third day. So when did Tsunade find the body of Nawaki? It should be the night after the second day!

Could it be that Rope Tree was killed by the air ninja bombing on the first day, but was not discovered by Tsunade until a day and a half later? This doesn't make sense, the body should have been discovered earlier!

The second doubt is, since Rope Tree had died in the bombing of the Sky Ninja, why did the Kirigakure Ninja take away his internal organs specifically? Was it for research? Why not take away his entire body? Just like when Hiruko took away Nakayoshi's body, it could be handed over to the Konoha Intelligence Department for research and also as proof of military exploits. It is unreasonable to just take away the internal organs!

The third question is how did the Kirigakure ninja identify Rope Tree of the Senju clan among the many bodies that died in the explosion? This was most likely done by the ninjas in Konoha Village, or at least someone from Konoha Village provided key information!

There was a name circling on Mo Congfeng's lips, but it was held tightly by his teeth and he refused to spit it out!

The enemy who killed Rope Tree might be inside Konoha! Mo Congfeng felt an inexplicable chill!

In the evening, Mo Congfeng received a summons from Danzo Shimura.

"Mo, I know that your team's mission is not any easier than that of the three ninjas! The Hidden Mist Village has the most bloodline limits among the five major ninja villages. You are deep in the enemy camp and you will have to face all these enemies."

"I don't really believe that you can really kill the Perceptive Ninja Nakaji. The battle I imagine should be that you raid the Kirigakure camp, and then after making a commotion, our spies will send out a signal to indicate Nakaji's location. This is equivalent to telling Kirigakure that our Konoha's target is the ninja Nakaji. Then you can firmly attract the attention of the Kirigakure ninjas!"

"I didn't expect that you could sneak into the Kirigakure camp, successfully kill Nakayoshi, and then escape and return smoothly!"

Mo Congfeng spoke at the right time, "Our spies made a great contribution, and Aburame Ryoma also sacrificed himself for it!"

Shimura Danzo waved his hand slightly, "Obiru has already told me about the spy. He is willing to adopt the child! I have already agreed to Obiru. I am very sorry for the death of Aburame Ryoma, but this is war, this is the norm of ninja life, we all have to learn to adapt!"

Mo Congfeng's mind flashed with the expression of Beiliuhu in front of the spy at that time, and he felt that it seemed to be a good choice to give Mitarashi Anko to Beiliuhu to raise. It would tie Beiliuhu down so that he would not be so extreme in his actions in the future!

But Danzo Shimura continued, "You are able to complete such a mission, which is enough to make you a hero of Konoha on par with the Three Ninjas! But not all heroes are suitable to stand in the sun. We are destined to become tree roots buried deep in the darkness and become heroes in the dark of Konoha!"

Shimura Danzo paused, "Although the title of Konoha Hero does not belong to us, we still deserve the benefits! All the promises I made before the war will be fulfilled. All members of your team will be given a chance to learn forbidden techniques and receive the highest standard S-level mission money, including that Uchiha!"

Including that Uchiha? Mo Congfeng raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this. It seems that this Lord Danzo Shimura is one of the Konoha high-ranking officials who is targeting the Uchiha clan as mentioned by Uchiha Fugaku!

Shimura Danzo handed Mo Congfeng an identity plate with a Ding on it, "Congfeng Mo, from today on, you are the captain of the fourth team of our Root Organization. From now on, your code name will be Ding!"
