Chapter 140: Ch.140 Leave No One Alive!
After listening to Kakashi's report, the Third Hokage furrowed his brows deeply.
Recently, due to Danzo keeping a low profile and the village's security forces being stretched thin with the arrival of various delegations from other nations, the Anbu team specifically assigned to monitor Sasuke had been temporarily reassigned.
He hadn't expected a situation to arise so quickly.
The Third Hokage asked, "Have you investigated who is behind this?"
Kakashi shook his head. "We have very little information at the moment. According to eyewitness accounts, the person with Sasuke last night was a wandering doctor named 'Shinnō.'"
"A wandering doctor?"
Kakashi added, "I've already sent someone to investigate this wandering doctor."
Knock, knock.
There was a knock on the door.
Asuma then entered, holding a document. "This is information about that wandering doctor. According to the analysis from the intelligence team, his identity is not simple. He likely has connections with a hidden village and has been involved in espionage activities."
The Third Hokage took the document from Asuma, glanced at it, and sighed, "These are troubled times indeed."
