Chapter:49

Konoha's twelfth training ground is very inconspicuous among the hundreds of training grounds in Konoha.

Normally almost no one comes here.

But tonight, there was a lot of noise here. When the ANBU ninjas arrived at the scene, they were stunned by the scene in front of them.

How...

"incredible!"

The ANBU ninja's eyes widened, "It's unbelievable, is that really a demon?"

"It's so fast, so powerful, and there's that strange pattern on his body, what is that?"

"I don't know, but we can't wait any longer. The demon will become stronger after eating people. We must catch it as soon as possible. Go ahead and cooperate with the people in the root to seal it."

The leading ninja gave the order.

Others immediately followed.

At this moment, the battle not far away finally came to an end.

The demon that suddenly appeared found this place somehow, and immediately launched an attack on the root ninja stationed here.

It was faster than a chuunin and stronger than a jounin. When caught off guard, a root ninja was killed on the spot, and one arm was eaten by the ghost on the spot.

The others immediately fought back and fought with the ghost.

But this demon's various qualities obviously exceeded their expectations. His unreasonable physical fitness and immortality made them suffer a lot.

Even though ninjas now have a complete set of means to target ghosts, they only refer to ordinary demons, and the one that appeared this time is the Twelve demon Moon level. Although Sasuke gave very little blood, the body of a person in the ninja world The quality also exceeds Demon Slayer World.

As the first demon he made by himself, it obviously cannot be inferred based on common sense.

It wasn't until the ANBU ninjas took action, with more than a dozen ninjas surrounding him, and various ninjutsus emerging one after another, that the ghost's movements were finally restricted, and he was finally captured using earth escape and sealing techniques.

Ten minutes later, ANBU base.

"Sandaime-sama, this is the cannibal tonight."

The ANBU captain said respectfully.

"How strong is he?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen held his pipe in his mouth and looked at the ghost whose whole body was locked expressionlessly. focusing mainly on his eyes.

"It's very strong. In one-on-one combat, it's not weaker than a Jonin who specializes in Taijutsu."

Considering the immortality of demons, ordinary taijutsu jounin may not be its opponents.

The Anbu didn't say this, but the third hokage could figure it out for himself.

His face looked a little heavy.

"Have you become so strong? You're in trouble!"

Now even a fool can see that the appearance of ghosts must be caused by man-made things, and the fact that ghosts continue to become stronger shows that the research behind the scenes is rapidly improving.

Especially this time, the demon has words in its eyes.

Having a number means there is an organization. Does this mean that the mastermind behind the scenes is ready to surface?

"Open the door, let me go in and take a look."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said suddenly.

"Sandaime-sama?"

Anbu panicked.

"Open the door, don't worry, he can't hurt me yet."

The third hokage glanced at his subordinates, full of the confidence of a top strong man.

"Yes."

The dungeon door opens.

Sarutobi Hiruzen walked into the cell.

The demon who was kneeling on the ground with his head lowered looked up at him, then continued to lower his head and pretend to be dead.

Ok?

Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his eyebrows slightly.

He is here in person today for this reason. If a demon is simply powerful, it doesn't matter, but there are so many different things about it that inevitably make people curious and eager to find out the reasons for these differences.

For example, today's demon is calmer than all the previous demons. He will not be so excited that he loses his mind when he sees a living person. On the contrary, his actions are very purposeful at first glance, and he is going straight to the 12th training ground....and go from the root base below! root. Danzo.

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed, feeling that this matter was quite difficult.

"You should be able to understand me."

He looked at the demon with his head lowered.

Hearing this, the demon raised his head again and looked at him.

"You are not the same demon as before."

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned.

"The ones before?"

The demon spoke for the first time, and his voice was a little hoarse, which sounded very uncomfortable.

"Those wastes? Don't confuse me with them. I was transformed by him personally. Those wastes are at best the remnants of your power that you accidentally scattered outside."

The demon smiled, his smile full of malice.

"Who is the leader you are talking about? And what do you mean by transformation?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen asked, but received a disdainful smile.

The demon refused to answer.

"Let the people from the torture class come over..."

Originally, after the demons were caught, the torture squad would probe for information. As a result, the demons' minds were all blurred and there was no useful information at all.

So much so that when trying to catch the ghost later, everyone

would just skip this step. Unexpectedly, there would be an unexpected gain this time! "There's no need to wait for the torture squad, I've brought someone here."

At this moment, an old voice sounded. It was Danzo who came after hearing the news. He was followed by a root ninja.

Coincidentally, Danzo was outside the village when the demon rushed towards the Twelve Training Ground tonight.

"Danzo, this demon is different from the previous ones. It has consciousness and memory."

"That's even more true. This subordinate of mine is an outstanding junior of the Yamanaka family."

The ninja following Danzo heard this and bowed to the Third Hokage.

His expression was a little complicated, and he sighed slightly, "Okay, you can do it."

"Yes!"

Yamanaka Fu stepped forward in response and formed a seal with his hands.

The art of mind reading: the art of turning around the heart.

The next second, his mind sank in.

"A very far away place... called Infinite City... there are twelve demon moons. He is the first of the lower moon. There are six more powerful demons above, which are the first upper moon. Above them there is the demon king, The source and master of..."

Yamanaka Fu said intermittently, but did not notice that just when he was checking the demon's "memory", a pupil power had silently invaded his brain.

Everything he heard and saw fell within Sasuke's preset range.

Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo listened and gradually frowned.

Is a strong taijutsu jounin level only ranked seventh?

"Yamanaka Fu, why does he want to attack the base of the roots?"

Danzo asked suddenly.

It attracted Sarutobi Hiruzen's sideways glance.

Danzo ignored the gaze of his old friend. Although he was indeed studying demons in private, the demon suddenly pointed out that it was causing trouble for him, but it had nothing to do with him. He would not bear the blame.

"There is no relevant memory, his memory has been artificially modified... Wait, that's not right..."

The next second, the Yamanaka Fu next to Danzo groaned, and blood oozed from the corner of his mouth.

Across the way, the demon raised his head.

"Danzo, there's no need to guess, it's you I'm looking for!"
