Chapter 196: #196 - Section 196

Land of Hot Water, Konoha camp's morgue tent.

It was filled with a large number of corpses, most of which were Cloud ninjas, but there were also quite a few Konoha ninja corpses.

Qifeng and "Hiruzen Sarutobi," which is his puppet clone, were both in the tent.

"Hiruzen Sarutobi" temporarily stayed in the tent under the pretext that Qifeng needed to treat his injuries.

"The simplest two stages have passed. Next should be Hiruzen Sarutobi's stage, which is also the most difficult one. As long as he passes, this identity will be established. After that, I just need to show myself to my heart's content," Qifeng said, sitting on the chair.

"However, this time I have already shown enough strength and potential. As long as I am not caught in some obvious loopholes, Hiruzen Sarutobi will not do too much. No matter what, this time the credit is indeed great, and it cannot be ignored just based on some words," the puppet also said.

Qifeng nodded. "The stage has been set up, and the debut is quite excellent. This is a very good start."

"Instead of being careful of Hiruzen Sarutobi, it's better to be careful of Danzo. That guy will get to the bottom of everything."

Qifeng had always been very wary of Danzo, even though Danzo didn't pay much attention to him at all.

"Do you want to find a chance to get rid of Danzo?" The puppet's expression turned fierce.

Qifeng also hesitated slightly.

However, after thinking deeply, he still shook his head, "There's no chance. The Root ninjas around Danzo are not that easy to deal with. Besides, he is still needed to communicate with Iwa ninjas. If Onoki doesn't turn around to attack the Cloud ninjas' rear, it's questionable whether Konoha can survive this war."

In fact, with Qifeng's current strength, leaving Konoha doesn't mean he can't survive.

It's just that, for now, there is no place more suitable for him to stay than Konoha, where he can exhaustively collect the corpses from the major hidden villages.

Besides, Madara is not dead yet, and it is very dangerous outside.

"That's right, so it's best to get through this smoothly this time. As for Danzo, we won't contact him until the end of the war," the puppet also agreed.

As they were talking, they suddenly paused.

They looked at each other.

Someone is coming.

Some things are not easy to say much about.

Soon, the curtain of the tent was lifted.

"Hey! Qifeng, didn't expect it, we're here!"

Before the person was seen, the voice came.

It was Obito Uchiha.

He was injured last time, so they didn't participate in the Sakamoto battle this time, and Kakashi and Rin Nohara, who were also in the same team, didn't participate either.

However, this may not be a bad thing for them.

"Idiot," Kakashi's voice came.

"Damn Kakashi, if you have the guts, let's fight one-on-one!!!"

The three appeared in the tent, along with Minato Namikaze, who had a smile on his face.

This time, although what he did was not as shocking as Qifeng, he still caused a small sensation by fighting against two Kage-level powerhouses alone.

"Eh? Who are you?" Obito looked at the Hiruzen Sarutobi disguised by the puppet and scratched his head, asking.

"Idiot, you were clamoring to get an autograph from 'Magnet Release Hiruzen' before, but now you don't even recognize the person himself," Kakashi mocked, his eyes flickering as he looked at "Hiruzen Sarutobi."

This person, together with his teacher, reversed the situation of Konoha at Sakamoto Outpost with their combined strength. His strength is quite terrifying.

Killing sixty-four Cloud ninjas is something that even someone as confident as Kakashi would not dare to imagine.

"Eh!!!!"

Obito's loud voice spread throughout the camp.

"Senior Hiruzen! 'Magnet Release Hiruzen' is actually here! Qifeng, do you know Senior Hiruzen?!" Obito grabbed Qifeng's clothes.

Qifeng's eyes twitched.

Magnet Release Hiruzen, I don't know who came up with this nickname, it's not domineering at all, and it's too far from titles like "Yellow Flash" and "Konoha White Fang".

"Haha, Qifeng saved me at a critical moment, otherwise I probably wouldn't have been able to awaken Magnet Release," Hiruzen Sarutobi scratched his head and said with a hearty smile.

"Qifeng, you actually saved Senior Hiruzen?" Obito had an expression of disbelief.

Qifeng was too lazy to pay attention to him. The current Obito is mildly described as a chuunibyou.

Sure enough, the more chuunibyou you are, the stronger you become after blackening, the true chuunibyou law.

Suddenly thinking about it, with a thought, he took out a forehead protector from his arms, "This is for you."

A special item, the inherited forehead protector.

"Forehead protector? You're giving it too late, I have one!" Obito pointed to the forehead protector on his head, looking very proud.

"This is something from a chunin senior to you," Qifeng emphasized the words "chunin."

"Hmm? Is this a chunin gift given to me in advance?"

Obito happily took it, took off the original forehead protector on his head, and put on this "Inherited Forehead Protector" with special effects.

Qifeng narrowed his eyes.

I wonder if this forehead protector can reverse Obito's future blackening to a certain extent.

Maybe it can, or maybe it won't, but it doesn't hurt to try.

"No, I just hope you don't hold Kakashi back," Qifeng said lightly.

Obito: "???"

On the other side, while Qifeng and the despair trio were making small talk, "Hiruzen Sarutobi" was also communicating with Minato Namikaze.

Dual-line operation.

"Hiruzen, the village means for you to go back immediately for recuperation, and the Hokage wants to ask some questions about you," Minato Namikaze conveyed this order on behalf of Jiraiya.

"Go back to the village? I understand," Qifeng nodded.

It was within his expectations.
