Chapter 581: Who Could It Be

Kuchiki Senya spoke up at once.

"Who were the people who attacked your Konoha?"

The old man pressed on.

"Their target must be the secret treasure inside Konoha Village!"

Kuchiki Senya spoke up at once.

"A secret treasure inside Konoha? What secret treasure?"

"I don't know either! We were only investigating who was behind this matter, and after the investigation wrapped up, I only learned that it was done by people from the Yamaguchi-gumi!"

"They seemed very interested in the secret treasure stored inside Konoha and wanted to snatch it, so we joined forces with the shinobi village to stop them!"

Kuchiki Senya hurriedly said.

"The Yamaguchi-gumi — how dare they be so bold? Aren't they afraid of Konoha Village?"

The old man couldn't help but knit his brows and asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Their target is that secret treasure, so naturally they aren't afraid of Konoha Village. Besides, Konoha Village's strength is no weaker than the Yamaguchi-gumi's!"

Kuchiki Senya spoke up at once.

Hearing this, the old man fell into thought.

He knew Konoha Village's strength must be inferior to the Yamaguchi-gumi's — otherwise Konoha Village could not have become the Shinobi World's greatest power in such a short time!

But what he couldn't figure out was where on earth Konoha Village's strength had come from.

How could they have the ability to beat the Yamaguchi-gumi into such a state!

Moreover, they were able to hide for so long that even the Yamaguchi-gumi couldn't find them!

Such strength was truly astonishing!

"Alright, I understand. Our main force will arrive here very soon — you may all withdraw for now!"

"Yes!"

Hearing this, Kuchiki Senya and the others immediately nodded and quickly dispersed.

Meanwhile, in Konoha, far away across ten thousand li.

In a hidden forest to the southwest of this city.

On a small path.

Two figures were walking slowly.

They were dressed in shinobi attire, but from the clothing alone, their identities could not be made out!

Those two figures were none other than Lin Xiaofeng and Ryūsei Long Zhijie!

The two of them walked for a long time and finally arrived within Konoha's borders!

"We're finally here!"

Ryūsei Long Zhijie couldn't help but let out a long breath!
