"Hey, what the hell is going on?" Kakashi asked.

"My name is Kinoe." Yamato did not immediately answer Kakashi's question, but first tell him his name, Kakashi glanced, and immediately said: "Hatake Kakashi."

"I know about you, you are very famous at the Roots." Yamato said quietly.

This is something Kakashi didn't think of, but it was obviously not the time to pay attention to this kind of thing.

"Why are you here? What is the matter with Orochimaru? And what is that clan?"

In order to understand the truth of the matter as soon as possible, Kakashi asked three questions. Because the plot was changed now, Kakashi did not dare to guarantee that the things he saw in his previous life were the truth of the matter, so he still has to ask about it.

The voices of both of them were very small. Yukimi right now is more than five meter apart from them. Therefore, although Yukimi knew that the two were communicating, she did not know what the two were saying. She just thought they were discussing about the plan to save her clan.

Yamato glanced at Yukimi and then whispers: "After Orochimaru defect, Danzo-sama sent me here, saying that this is a secret base of Orochimaru. So he told me to investigate it and try to find Orochimaru's trace. "

"Orochimaru has been defecting for more than half a month. Why are you still here?"

"The investigation is not over yet. There is a group of strange people called the Iburi clan. They had the ability to become smoke at will and still be able to physically interact with the world around them. However, this ability was imperfect, causing them to occasionally transform unintentionally. In their smoke form, they were vulnerable to wind as it caused them to disperse permanently and die. Orochimaru helps them control this Ability, so their lifespan has grown."

"They are very grateful to Orochimaru, so they think Orochimaru will come back to them again, so I stayed here to continue the investigation and never went back."

"Why do they trust you?"

"The girl behind us called Yukimi. She mistook me for her missing younger brother, so because of that I can get along with their clan."

What Yamato did not say is that for more than half a month of getting along, he also had grown fond of Yukimi, and today it is because Yukimi said that she has never seen the scenery outside, so Yamato now take her out to go outside.

However, then Yukimi saw something and suddenly start to run wildly. Yamato then chase her and didn't focus on his surrounding and was found by Kakashi.

What he didn't even think was that when he finally see Yukimi again, she bring the news of that Orochimaru is slaughtering the Iburi clan people, which makes Yamato doesn't understand. Isn't Iburi clan Orochimaru's subordinate? Why does Orochimaru come to slaughtering the Iburi clan?

The reason Yukimi is running is because that she sense the clan is dying. She rushed over and saw the dying Iburi clan's Chief, Gotta, and learned about Orochimaru.

Gotta tell Yukimi to run from there, but Yukimi just come back to Yamato's location to ask him to save her clan.

After listening to Yamato's explanation, Kakashi then start thinking, except for the part that he was originally participating in, the other thing were similar to the plot, but what Kakashi didn't understand is that why did Orochimaru, who had successfully escaped from the Land of Fire come back here?

The Iburi clan should not be that important to Orochimaru.

After thinking for a while, they finally arrive at the Iburi clan's location

The dark cave looks scary, as if it were a mouth of ferocious beast, waiting for people to walk right into a trap.

Kakashi and Yamato stood at the gate of the cave, waiting for Yukimi that had not come yet. After all, letting the Yukimi go alone is too dangerous.

After a moment, the pantingYukimi finally arrive too.

"Tenzo, let's go in."

"Ah."

It didn't take long for Kakashi's group to walk into the cave, and they then smelled a strong bloody scent.

"There is a lot of blood here, I am afraid that a lot of people have died."

Kakashi frown, it seems that like the original history, this Iburi clan were be killed by Orochimaru. Looking at Yukimi, he doesn't know if this girl is so lucky.

It didn't take long for them to see some of the Iburi clan member lying on the ground?

Seeing this, Yukimi turn pale with fright, ran to the body while yelled: "Everyone! What's wrong? Wake up!"

It is a pity that no matter how many times Yukimi call them, the Iburi clan member who have already become corpses will not respond to her again.

"Oohh, there is still some little mice left?"

From the darkness, a figure slowly emerged, Kakashi was shocked, and the Millennium sword instantly appeared in his hand.

Yamato also raised his vigilance in an instant.

They saw a blue haired middle-aged shinobi wearing a white robe appearing in front of them. Apparently he is not Orochimaru.

Kakashi frowned, what about Orochimaru?

"Who are you?"

"Me? You don't need to know who I am. You seem to be Shinobi of Konoha. But that little girl seems to be one of the Iburi clan members."

After hearing this, Kakashi and Yamato instantly stand in front of Yukimi to protect her.

"Who are you? What is your purpose for coming here?" Yamato shouted.

Seeing this person's goal turned out to be Yukimi, Yamato was obviously angry.

"It seems I can tell you about it, after all you all will be killed by me here. I am Orochimaru-sama's subordinate, Samezawa! My purpose of coming here today is to collect the blood of the Iburi family for Orochimaru-sama's research."

"Damn! You actually regard human life like a play thing!"

Yamato is obviously very angry. After all, in the past months, Yamato has established a good relationship with the Iburi clan.

Kakashi is very calm, shinobi's World is like this, the strong prey on the weak and the weak can't say anything about it.

Now it seems that Orochimaru didn't come back here, only Orochimaru's subordinate is coming. Kakashi relaxed, although no longer afraid of Orochimaru, but does not mean he is willing to meet him.

"Haha, you are really naive, are you really a shinobi?"

The tone of Samezawa is full of ridicule and he is amused hearing about what Yamato said.

Yamato naturally understand that the strong prey on the weak. After all, he grows in the roots, a place full of blood and darkness.

It's just that Yamato is a kind person, so he can't accept it.

"Okay, enough talking, just hand over the little girl now, then I can still let you live."

"Impossible!" Yamato said with firm voice, he decide that he will use his life to protect Yukimi!

Then he starts to make hand seals!

"Wood Release: Great Forest Technique!"

Yamato's arm instantly turned into a giant wood, and hit Samezawa!
