“How many is that now?”
Renye asked, looking at the spy's corpse at his feet.
Danzo Shimura sighed, “This is the fourth.”
“Tsk, these guys are really in a hurry,” Renye couldn't help but exclaim.
As soon as the news of Senju Hashirama's death spread, so many spies infiltrated Konoha.
It seemed the other countries couldn't hold back anymore.
“Renye Jonin, someone else has infiltrated,” a Konoha Ninja from the sensory squad said.
The two didn't speak, swiftly moving in the direction he pointed.
In an alley in Konoha Village.
“Raikage-sama has ordered us to investigate whether Senju Hashirama is truly dead or not. This mission must succeed, no failures allowed!”
A dark-skinned man said to his two companions beside him.
“Understood, Captain!”
“Good, now begin the mission!”
Just then, an untimely voice came.
“Oh? What kind of mission? Let me hear it too.”
The three instinctively looked in the direction of the voice, only to see a young man holding a Tachi standing at the alley entrance.
“Damn it, we're exposed!”
“Quick, kill him!”
“How unlucky, to be discovered right after infiltrating.”
Saying that, the three drew their kunai and attacked Renye.
Since this was Konoha, they were worried about being discovered if they used Ninjutsu, so they planned to use kunai to silence him.
Renye watched the three Cloud Ninja charging at him, holding his Tachi and slashing at the foremost Cloud Ninja from a tricky angle.
The man was about to dodge sideways, but as he looked up, he saw a pair of crimson eyes and, caught off guard, fell under a genjutsu.
The Cloud Ninja's pupils suddenly dilated, and his body froze in place.
Renye's blade didn't stop; a cold glint flashed across his neck. The moment warm blood splattered on the ground, he tapped his toes and leaped into the air.
“Sharingan, don't look into his eyes!”
Amidst the two's exclamations, Renye spun in the air, his Tachi drawing a crescent-shaped blade aura.
The Cloud Ninja on the left frantically threw a kunai, which flew past Renye's ear.
Seeing his attack miss, he felt utterly despairing.
If this young man didn't die, then he would...
Pfft—
The sound of a blade entering flesh rang out, and Renye stabbed him through the body.
“Bastard, die!”
The last Cloud Ninja, while Renye was killing his companion, seized the opportunity to launch a surprise attack from his blind spot with a kunai.
Just as the kunai was about to hit Renye's back, the young man suddenly vanished from his spot.
“Damn it, where did he go?!”
The Cloud Ninja frantically looked around and found Renye's figure not far away.
At this moment, Renye had three poisoned kunai in his hand.
“Petty tricks,” he sneered. His Sharingan precisely captured the subtle changes in the enemy's breathing rhythm. Three kunai shot through the air, sealing the opponent's throat, heart, and thigh respectively.
The last Cloud Ninja quickly dodged, but Renye used a Body Flicker to close in, smashing the hilt of his Tachi hard against the Cloud Ninja's temple, who grunted and fell to the ground.
Having done all this, Renye sheathed his Tachi.
Danzo Shimura rushed over, seeing the mess on the ground, and couldn't help but complain.
“Renye, you didn't leave anyone alive again!”
A total of four spies were discovered this morning, and he had wanted to keep one alive, but Renye had killed them all.
Counting the three on the ground, seven were already dead.
Renye pouted and said, “There's no need to keep these kinds of spies alive. You can't get any valuable information out of them anyway, so it's better to kill them.”
Danzo Shimura's eyelids twitched wildly as he retorted, “How do you know he's worthless?!”
“Then if you encounter a spy, you keep them alive yourself.” Renye didn't want to argue with Danzo and turned to leave.
This guy was so effeminate, it was hard to communicate with him.
Wasn't it just killing a few spies?
He kept nagging and whining non-stop, it was so annoying.
He should have known not to be in a team with Danzo.
Watching Renye's retreating figure, Danzo was almost fuming.
“Uchiha Renye, what do you mean by this?!”
… … … …
“Yosh, successfully infiltrated Konoha!”
A young boy, about ten years old, dressed in coarse linen clothes, shouted in his heart.
He looked curiously at the buildings of Konoha Village, his eyes shining like little stars.
“Is this Konoha Village? It's so prosperous!”
The boy couldn't help but exclaim; this place was much more prosperous than Sunagakure.
Although Konoha was stronger than Sunagakure now, as long as they defeated Konoha, Sunagakure could also possess such resources!
His purpose in infiltrating Konoha was to inquire about Senju Hashirama.
If the news was true, the Land of Wind would launch a war against the Land of Fire.
As long as the war was won, these resources would be theirs!
Just as the boy was envisioning the future, a cold voice sounded in his ear.
“Prosperous, huh? Then stay here.”
He stiffly turned his head and saw a pair of crimson eyes.
Renye drew the Tachi from his waist, staring directly at the spy in front of him.
“B-Big brother, who are you?” The boy feigned an innocent look.
He was just a scout trained by Sunagakure, not even a Ninja, just an ordinary person.
The Konoha Ninja in front of him shouldn't attack him, right?
After all, he was just an ordinary person visiting Konoha.
Huh? Why is my vision constantly spinning?
Just as the boy felt confused, he suddenly saw a headless corpse on the ground.
This seemed to be his body...
So, it was his head that flew up.
Didn't they say that Ninja shouldn't kill civilians?
But no one could answer the boy's question anymore.
Renye sheathed his Tachi and turned to leave.
Anyway, the Anbu would come to handle the scene.
Just a little spy, killed him, so what.
When Danzo Shimura arrived, he saw the headless corpse on the ground and a head in the distance.
A hint of horror flashed in his eyes, and he murmured, “Uchiha Renye, he's getting more and more terrifying...”
Although he knew the person was a spy, this was too cruel, wasn't it?
Danzo always thought he was a cold-blooded person, but in front of Renye, he felt he was still too kind.
Thinking of this, he swallowed hard and quickly followed.
If he arrived any later, Renye would have killed the spy again.
He was still hoping to keep one alive for interrogation.
As soon as Danzo left, two Anbu wearing animal masks arrived at the scene and were somewhat shocked to see the bodies on the ground.
Goodness, they died too horribly, didn't they?
The same thought arose in both their minds.
That was, not to provoke Renye, otherwise, they would definitely die a horrible death!
… … … …
“We captured 5 spies,” Utatane Koharu said to Homura Mitokado.
“Haha, we captured 9,” Hiruzen Sarutobi said, smiling at his teammate, Uchiha Kagami, who smiled back.
The four instinctively looked at Danzo and Renye.
Danzo was a bit embarrassed, not knowing what to say.
He knew that Hiruzen and the others would definitely keep them alive...
“Do spies need to be kept alive? I killed 10 today.”
Renye, seeing everyone looking at him, asked somewhat confused.
Everyone: “??? ”
No, is this right?!
