Chapter 254: Tongue Eradication Seal
Assassinating Kohi Shimura had originally been intended to strike a blow against Danzo, but inadvertently helping Hatake Sakumo instead was a welcome surprise.
It seemed that any effort spent working against Danzo would always yield returns.
The Fox Squad was about to depart for the border of the Land of Hot Water.
Purple Cat followed Captain Fox into Deputy Commander Yellow Dog's office.
Yellow Dog and Fox discussed the details of their upcoming mission to the Land of Hot Water.
Fox brought up a final request.
"Commander, when I was an instructing Jonin at Root, I noticed a newcomer named Yamanaka Ryu. She showed decent talent. I'd like her assigned to my squad."
"Oh?" Yellow Dog said. "Yamanaka Ryu... why does that name sound so familiar?"
He glanced at Purple Cat standing behind Fox and remembered that her real name was Yamanaka Ruri.
