Naruto: Who made him a ninja?.

Chapter 145 This is Xiu Ze! The Changing Wave Country Mission! ( words, please subscribe)
The summer breeze is intoxicating, and the cicadas cling to the treetops, chirping tirelessly.

Kakashi stood beside a big tree and looked at Naruto, Sasuke and Karin with a smile on his face.

"Good morning, everyone. It seems you are all still full of energy today."

"."

The three of them didn't say anything, but looked at Kakashi as if he was a psychopath.

How can they look energetic at all now?
Looking at the guy in front of him, who was wearing a mask and had half of his eyes covered by a forehead protector, while the other half of his eyes were curved like a crescent moon and he had a 'bright smile'.

They wanted to strangle him to death!

How could there be such a bad person?

Before they knew it, more than a month had passed, and Karin and the others had been studying with Kakashi for a month.

It’s just that this period of time can be called their Good Friday.

Kakashi in this time and space may have known that Obito had betrayed him a long time ago, so many of his original habits were changed.

be late?

nonexistent!

Kakashi, who adheres to the ethics of Anbu, is never late!
train?

That was extremely painful, so Kakashi directly took on a large number of tasks to satisfy these little guys!

This series of tasks was either weeding, picking up trash, or looking for cats and dogs, which completely confused Karin and the other two.

This isn't the ninja they imagined.
To simply describe their current state, they are probably about to collapse, right?

Get up earlier than the chicken, work harder than the cow, and sleep later than the dog.
Even cows, horses, and donkeys are not used like this!
As a result, even Sasuke, who had long been accustomed to 'Konoha at four in the morning', couldn't stand it.

just
Kakashi didn't care about these at all. He took out a book and smiled while reading.

"Since we are full of energy, let's start today's efforts!

Didn’t you say when you introduced yourselves that one of you wanted to be Hokage?

One wants to gain power to avenge his family, and the other wants to become a female ninja like Lady Tsunade.

How can you succeed without working hard? Well, smile, and then we'll go!"

"Wait, Captain Kakashi!"

Karin couldn't hold it in any longer. Seeing Kakashi lowering his head and reading a book, she was about to start a day where he would enjoy the cool air while they would be the slaves. She immediately spoke.

"These missions don't mean anything to us, and I heard from Brother Xiu Ze that when he was my age, he had already carried out various difficult missions!

Even if we are not as good as Brother Xiu Ze, you can't let us always carry out low-level tasks, right?
Captain Kakashi, you were once Brother Hidezawa's teammate. Isn't it a bad idea for you to train us like this?"

In fact, Xianglin really didn't want to talk about Xiu Ze. Joining this team was equivalent to repeating a grade. It was really embarrassing to mention Xiu Ze's name!

especially.
Now everyone in Konoha knows that the new assistant Hokage of Konoha Village has been selected, and that is Shihara Hidezawa!
There is a candidate Hokage, a candidate Hokage's secretary, and a formal Hokage's assistant in the family.

There is also a captain of the Anbu logistics and medical squads, a captain of the Root Guards, and the Hokage's assistant guards.
As a result, when it was her turn, she became a repeater and the worst one?

If she tells others about it, not only will she be embarrassed, but the whole family will be embarrassed!

So during this period of time she never talked about her family matters. Even if Naruto and Sasuke wanted to ask, she would quickly avoid them or change the subject.

She just wanted to get out of this 'predicament' as quickly as possible, but it turned out that they were just a group of 'trash pickers'?

"Hidetaka?"

Kakashi's body stiffened slightly when he heard the name, and the painful memories seemed to come back to his mind.

"Kakashi-sensei, I think we should do some other missions!"

Naruto immediately joined in the commotion, as he had been dissatisfied for a long time.

On the other side, the taciturn Sasuke nodded, staring at Kakashi with burning eyes, everything was said without words.

"You guys."

Kakashi looked at the scene in front of him with a bit of a smile and tears in his eyes. He could feel that these little guys seemed to be really reaching their limit.

I just didn't expect that they would react so violently.

Xianglin has been working diligently during this period, but now even Xiu Ze's name has been brought up.

Moreover, Naruto and Sasuke are obviously unwilling to continue, and the time seems to be just right now.

Kakashi admitted that he had some conditioned reflexes when it came to Hidezawa, but he had recovered a lot by now, but he still couldn't help but make a joke.

"Although your idea is good, you are not him after all. Ninja is not a game. If you rush in, you will die."

That's better than continuing to embarrass yourself by 'picking up trash' here!
Karin couldn't help but complain in her heart. For her, she would rather die outside than stay in Konoha and embarrass herself.

"I think we're ready, Captain Kakashi.

Moreover, I believe that Brother Xiu Ze doesn't want to see me continue like this.

So, Captain Kakashi, please!"

"."

Kakashi pursed his lips, and his mood for reading was almost gone. Can't you just not talk about Xiu Ze?

"Captain Kakashi, you don't want Brother Hidezawa to feel disappointed with our entire team, do you?"

Karin looked at Kakashi who didn't say anything. After a moment's silence, she raised her head and asked cautiously.

Just these words made Kakashi's fists harden!
Sure enough, this style is exactly the same as Xiu Ze's.
"Xiu Ze, the people from Kirigakure are almost here, how are you going to arrange this?"

In the Hokage building, Hidezawa sat in the Hokage's office and listened to Sarutobi Hiruzen's words.

Tsunade is currently rehearsing some matters related to her becoming Hokage, so some things still require Sarutobi Hiruzen's involvement.

Touching his chin, Xiu Ze spoke.

"I have a rough idea of ​​what Akatsuki is doing, and I've already sent someone over there. If there's any trouble, he'll use Flying Thunder God to alert me.

But speaking of which, why haven't Kakashi and the others moved yet? Wasn't it agreed that they should go out for exercise this time? "

"They should still be training their obedience, right?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought for a moment and said that in his opinion, Kakashi was always extremely reliable.

As for why they haven't set off yet, on the one hand, it's because they are uncertain about the actions of the Akatsuki organization, and on the other hand, they also have to consider the little ones.

Even with Xiu Ze's arrangement, being a ninja is still a high-risk profession. If you can't even obey, what else can you expect?
Of course, the distance between Konoha and Wave Country is not too far, so they have time to prepare.

Especially since Xiu Ze has some intelligence about Akatsuki, that's why they haven't taken full action yet.

"But it will be soon. The people from Wave Country have been in Konoha for half a month. I'm afraid they can't stand it anymore."

"Then let them take action. It might not be a good idea to continue waiting."

Xiu Ze smiled. If he remembered correctly, the person who ran over from the Land of Waves should be that Dazna.

A guy who is very good at moral blackmail, but maybe this is also their way of survival?

"That's fine. I'll ask Kakashi and the others to come over and give them the mission."

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded directly, and after the formal conversation he suddenly looked around and showed a smile that 'all men understand'.

"Boy, work harder, it's time for you to have an offspring."

"."

Xiu Ze was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt a little amused and helpless. Wasn’t this just said a month ago?
"Hokage-sama, didn't you promise me?"

"What did I promise you?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen blinked and continued speaking.

"I'm talking about a child, just a child. You're not a child anymore, you should work harder.

Especially the Wood Release bloodline, it must be passed down well, understand?"

"."

Xiu Ze opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say for a moment.

He worked hard for more than three years
But some things really cannot be solved by hard work. The changes brought to him by the bloodline mutation are much greater than he imagined!
"Also, Tsunade can use Wood Release with your help, right?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen stretched and suddenly asked with a smile.

"hiss"

Xiu Ze suddenly took a breath and asked cautiously.

"This doesn't seem to work?"

"This, it can be done."

Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at Hidezawa and spoke calmly with an extremely serious expression.

"."

Xiu Ze rubbed his eyebrows and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

He is indeed the one who taught Jiraiya. He even peeked at work with a crystal ball. His idea is really bold.
Hidezawa finally realized the difference between himself and the Third Hokage. He could only proceed slowly and stealthily, while he was a 'real warrior'!

"Hokage-sama, Kakashi and the others are here, I'm going back to get ready."

Fortunately, Xiu Ze really didn't want to continue talking about this topic with him at this time. He turned around and immediately stood up to say goodbye.

When Sarutobi Hiruzen heard this, he could only show regret on his face. Hidezawa's perception was very strong, so he naturally believed what Hidezawa said.

"Alright, let's say hello to the Anbu outside and ask them to call that Dazna up."

"Ah."

Xiu Ze nodded, then opened the door and left quickly, while Guang was waiting outside the door.

Seeing Xiu Ze coming out, she immediately stood up to greet him. Seeing Xiu Ze looked a little puzzled, she asked in confusion.

"What's wrong? Are you unhappy chatting with that old man?"

"Not really, but get ready, we're about to set off."

Xiu Ze thought about it and finally didn't say much. He was considering the situation of this mission.

"I haven't been out for a long time, so it's a good time to move around. Oh, and I might run into Uchiha Obito and Uchiha Itachi again this time."

"Tsk, two defeated generals."

Guang calmly took Hidezawa's arm, and it seemed that she didn't care about the combination of Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Obito.

But this is also normal. Even if she doesn't really approve of Uchiha in her heart, she is still a pure Uchiha after all.
They love and hate Zeng Ming. They are sarcastic and sweet-talking to people they dislike, but they are open-hearted to people they approve of.

Xiu Ze actually doesn't have a very good reputation for this kind of personality, and he was also shocked when Guang held his arm like this.

"Hey, hey, hey, this is the Hokage Building. There are ANBU here."

"That's not the case in your Root office."

".Can it be the same?"

"Why not?"

Looking at Guang's bright and calm eyes, Xiu Ze pursed his lips and said no more.

Ever since this 'evil old Uchiha' took the initiative, Xiu Ze had to admit that he seemed to have unlocked the 'office mode'.

Moreover, compared to Xiyan, Guang was extremely proactive, which made Xiu Ze feel a little amused and helpless. He finally experienced what it felt like to be pursued.

Even though he hadn't reached the final step, Xiu Ze had no doubt that there was a knock on his door that night.
"Is this Uchiha?"

His face was cold but his heart was burning with fire, which really made Xiu Ze feel very emotional.

However, this doesn't seem to be a bad thing.
"Yeah! Finally a good mission!"

Outside Konoha Village, after Kakashi and others finished gathering, Naruto suddenly jumped up excitedly!
Finally, I don’t have to pick up trash in the river anymore, and I can finally leave the village and start normal tasks.

He has been waiting for this day for a long time!

"idiot."

Although Sasuke was also excited, he was still very restrained. Seeing Naruto letting himself go like this, he couldn't help but complain in a low voice.

Karin, on the other hand, felt relieved, as she was finally out.

However, their expressions caught the eyes of Dazna who was standing beside them, and immediately made him tighten his grip on the bottle of wine. He felt a little uneasy.

He always felt that Konoha was perfunctory to him.
"I say, are you really okay? Konoha is not deliberately fooling me, is he?"

"Don't underestimate them. Konoha's ninja are safe."

Kakashi smiled indifferently and spread his hands.

"Besides, I, a Konoha jonin, am with you. What do you have to be afraid of?"

"Really? I really can't tell."

Dazna pursed his lips and whispered, taking another sip of wine. He didn't seem to care at all about his deception.

Maybe for him, it's just a matter of cheating as much as possible.
Kakashi didn't bother to pay attention to the old man. He knew something about the reasons behind this mission.

Although he thought that doing so was somewhat dangerous, he changed his mind and thought that since Xiu Ze was going to participate in it, then it wouldn't be a big problem!

Although Kakashi's time in the second half of the Anbu was not ideal
After all, there is someone who always makes him take the blame and constantly takes him to challenge "extreme tasks". Can it really be ideal?
Looking back at the latter half of his career in the Anbu, he attacked Kusagakure, kidnapped Huang Tu, burned down the Tsuchikage building, etc. What the hell is the difference between this and being a terrorist?
But no matter what happened, he had to admit one thing, Xiu Ze was not a very reliable person, but he was definitely reliable in doing things!
He said there wouldn't be any problem, and basically he meant there wouldn't be any problem.

Kakashi would never deny this.

Although he would subconsciously feel a little stiff when he heard this name, it didn't mean that he didn't trust Xiu Ze.

"Ah, ah, ah! Brother Xiu Ze!"

However, just as Kakashi was thinking, Naruto beside him suddenly started shouting again, which made Kakashi subconsciously stiffen.

Looking up, I saw Xiu Ze leading a group of people wearing dark Anbu uniforms!

In three years, Xiu Ze had already completed the distinction between the root and the dark part.

Moreover, the Root members will not carry out any missions in Konoha. Only the Hokage can command the Root members to go out in the Anbu.

And Xiu Ze will not force them to take people, everything is based on the principle of voluntariness. Not only are they not allowed to disclose anything, they may not even stay in Konoha.

However, without all the messy brainwashing and curses, the major families of Konoha have become more favorable towards the Root.

Even now, they can normally recruit outstanding talents from big families!
However, on this mission, Xiu Ze adhered to the principle of stability and brought all Uchiha people with him.

But when these people saw Sasuke, their eyes changed slightly.

"Hey, Xiuze."

Although Kakashi's expression was a little stiff when he saw Hidezawa, he quickly adjusted himself and greeted Hidezawa with a smile.

"Long time no see, Kakashi."

Hidezawa heard the sound and walked over. He first smiled at Kakashi, then reached out and rubbed Naruto's head hard.

Suddenly, Naruto's yellow hair became messy, and finally he looked at Karin who wanted to be an ostrich.

"What's wrong, Karin? You don't even say hello when you see me?"

"Brother Xiu Ze."

Xianglin raised her head reluctantly, she was too embarrassed to speak.

My big brother who assists the Hokage?

In the end, I'm just a miserable Genin?

Karin is really depressed.
"Go on a mission, Kakashi."

Hidezawa put one hand on Karin's shoulder, then deliberately looked at Kakashi.

"I'll be asking you to take care of Karin. I've always wondered if she wasn't up to the task, as she's been stuck doing low-level tasks in the village.

But now it seems that everything is fine. I finally see her being able to go on missions normally. Thank you for your hard work, Kakashi."

"."

Kakashi's face turned stiff. What's going on? Are you trying to pass on the blame?

How did she come to this team? Why can she only go on the mission now? Don’t you know?
Can't you just be a human being?

"Actually, it's all thanks to her own efforts."

Even though he was extremely depressed, Kakashi finally smiled awkwardly and took the blame.

This time, there was no room for discussion. Kakashi had no choice but to accept it no matter how aggrieved he felt.
"That's good."

Hidezawa looked at everyone with a smile, then withdrew his hand and patted Kakashi on the shoulder.

"Okay, I won't talk to you any more, I have something else to do.

I wish you all the best on your first mission, and I hope you enjoy your first mission."

"Um"

Kakashi forced a smile and nodded, he had always known that this mission would not go well.

But after hearing what Xiu Ze said, he felt that this would be even more troublesome.
“They look reliable.”

After Xiu Ze walked away, Dazna beside him suddenly took a sip and spoke.

Looking at Xiu Ze and his group, all wearing masks and exuding a murderous aura, it seemed that this was in line with his imagination of what a powerful ninja should look like.

"Them...you'd better forget about it."

Kakashi glanced at his employer, pursed his lips and replied.

The Root wasn't active in Konoha, but they were active outside quite a bit, and Kakashi had heard about what they were doing. Although they had done an exceptionally good job developing the small ninja villages in their control, after all, they were theirs.

But for other countries and internal ninja villages, the Root completely adheres to what Danzo left behind, and is even more excessive!

What about reselling Konoha's expired military supplies, and what about supporting hostile forces in other countries.

There are also assassinations and eliminations of anti-Konoha forces in the small countries they control. Even if you run to other countries or ninja villages, they will not let you go!
All in all, this is something that cannot be said openly.

Can such a group of people really be hired?
And with Xiu Ze's identity, are you worthy?
"Teacher Kakashi, you are very familiar with Brother Hidezawa, right?"

Naruto suddenly raised his head and looked at Kakashi with excitement.

"Can you tell me about Brother Xiu Ze? I've known him for a long time, but I don't know a lot about him.

And Karin is really annoying, she never tells us these things, how annoying."

"Tsk, is there anything you want to say?"

Karin rolled her eyes, not particularly wanting to talk about these things, and Kakashi rubbed his head.

Seeing Naruto's curious look, especially Sasuke's eyes looking over, even Dazna pricked up his ears.

He thought about it for a while and felt that it didn't matter if he said some things. After all, someone would know about it in the future. Xiu Ze was now the assistant of Hokage!

"Okay, but there's not much to say about Xiu Ze's affairs."

Kakashi touched his chin and spoke as he led everyone forward.

"I can tell you that he is probably the only one who is a true genius, a great genius.

His strength and ability are probably far more powerful than you can imagine!"

"really?"

Naruto blinked and looked at Kakashi in confusion.

"So, what about Hokage-sama? Hokage-sama is the strongest ninja, right?"

"Even the Sandaime himself has admitted that he is no match for Hidetsuke."

Kakashi shook his head. The third generation had indeed admitted this matter, and he was not afraid to say it out loud.

His words instantly made Naruto's eyes widen, and Sasuke's breathing became rapid.

They didn't know how powerful the Hokage was, but they had heard that the Sandaime was the 'strongest Hokage'.

Is Xiu Ze more powerful than the 'strongest Hokage'?

"How can it be"

"Perhaps there is one thing you don't know, but it's not really a secret to the entire ninja world."

Kakashi shrugged and spoke with a smile.

"Hidezawa defeated the Third Tsuchikage and the Fourth Raikage himself, and Sasuke should know something.

When he defected from Konoha, Uchiha Itachi, the person Sasuke wanted to kill the most, did not last a single round in his hands.

At the same time, Konoha also has a notorious rebel ninja who is also from Uchiha. He was also defeated by Hidezawa.

What's more, these are not the only ones who lost to Hidezawa. Even Orochimaru, the former three ninjas of Konoha and now a rebel ninja, lost to him.

He has long been beyond the imagination of ordinary people, and there is also some rather shocking news.

Hidezawa will also be the Hokage in the future, and this has been confirmed long ago."

"how so."

Kakashi’s words were a huge blow to Naruto. His dream was to become Hokage, but his dream was brought down before it even took off?
"idiot."

Seeing Naruto's miserable look, Sasuke couldn't help it, which immediately made Naruto unhappy.

"Asshole, what are you talking about! You're the idiot!"

"Don't you care about what's happening in the village?"

Sasuke looked at Naruto with disdain, he snorted and spoke.

"The village has announced a lot of news recently, one of which is the candidate for the Hokage's assistant, and that person is the one just mentioned."

"Assisting the Hokage?"

Naruto froze when he heard the word 'Hokage', but he breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the word 'assistant' at the end.

Fortunately, it’s not Naruto!
However, he had some doubts.

"What is a Hokage assistant?"

"The Hokage's Assistant is one of the most powerful people in the village, second only to the Hokage, and the Hokage's Assistant is considered the heir apparent to the Hokage."

Kakashi sighed and looked at Naruto's eyes widened in disbelief. He felt that Naruto really needed some remedial lessons.

Although it is said that his grades are not as bad as imagined, he seems to be unclear about many common sense things.

After thinking for a moment, Kakashi said something else.

"By the way, I have another piece of news for you. Konoha will soon have a new Hokage, the Fifth Hokage."

"Ugh?"

"And this Fifth Hokage is Hidezawa's teacher!"

The Fifth Hokage?
teacher?

Naruto felt numb. Was this the news he wanted to hear?

Now that we have the fifth generation, will Xiu Ze be the sixth generation in the future?

What about yourself?
The Seventh Hokage?
Although it's not unacceptable, Xiu Ze doesn't look much older than himself. He is worried that he will still be the seventh generation by then?
"How could this happen? This is different from what I thought."

Naruto looked at Karin beside him with a sad face, and suddenly he asked immediately.

"Xianglin, is it true that you are with Brother Xiuze?"

"Yes."

Karin didn't want to answer because it would only embarrass her further, but seeing the pitiful look in Naruto's eyes, she finally nodded.

This response immediately made Naruto even more desperate. If this continued, when would it be his turn?
"Is that guy so scary?"

Dazna had been listening with his ears perked up, and after hearing what Kakashi and Naruto said, he felt a little scared.

Is it possible that you have achieved so much at such a young age?
"Hmph, it's not surprising that Master Xiu Ze has such strength and ability."

Sasuke snorted, having wanted to call him by his first name.

But after thinking it over again and again, and thinking about the time when he was with Xiu Ze, that seemingly extremely cold woman said he was impolite, he still added honorifics.

"He once told me that if I want to improve, I must work hard, and the answer he gave me is 'Konoha at 4 a.m.'!
Naruto, you idiot, are you still sleeping in at this hour? "

"hateful."

Naruto clenched his fists, and after a while he seemed to cheer up and shouted loudly.

"It's just Konoha at four in the morning, I can do it too!"

Konoha at four in the morning?
When Kakashi heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched. He looked at Naruto and Sasuke and didn't know what to say for a moment.

And Karin even turned her head away, she felt too embarrassed to look at him.

There are people who really believe this kind of nonsense.
"Long time no see, Mei Terumi."

In the Land of Waves, in a forest, Hidezawa and a group of Root people have reunited with the people from Kirigakure.

What surprised him was that the people who came from Kirigakure this time were led by Mei Terumi.

In addition to the familiar Mei Terumi, there are also old acquaintances such as Zabuza, Kisame, and Ao.

Seeing these people, Xiu Ze was naturally very happy. After all, they were all people in his memory.

"Ha, long time no see."

However, compared to Hidezawa's happiness, Terumi Mei and others couldn't help but twitch their lips after seeing Hidezawa, even though so many years had passed.

Admittedly, they had to admit that it was Hidezawa who helped them, and they also betrayed Konoha.

Of course, in the transactions with Konoha over the years, both sides have achieved mutual benefit and the relationship has eased a lot.

But as soon as he saw Xiu Ze, the ruined Mist Village and the collapsed Mizukage Building seemed to be vivid in his mind.

This guy is just like the plague god, so uncomfortable
"I never thought that you, the Hokage's assistant and the head of the Root, would personally take action. We are truly flattered."

"Aren't you the same? I heard that Master Yuanshi didn't even establish the Mizukage because of you."

Xiu Ze spread his hands and said with a smile.

"Maybe in the future, you will be the Fifth Mizukage."

"We are in healthy competition, but there is no specific agreement. Don't talk nonsense."

Mei Terumi shook her head repeatedly. She would not admit these things, and she didn't want to continue this topic.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. What did you mean when you sent someone here to act as an outpost and said this operation wasn't as easy as you thought?

Could it be that Akatsuki has really set its sights on Kado?"

"Yes, we have indeed set our sights on them, and have already taken action."

Hidezawa smiled and nodded, saying that Nagato and Kakuzu were both his men, and nothing Akatsuki did could escape his eyes!

"If nothing unexpected happens, they are already on their way, and it is very likely that you will meet Uchiha Obito."

"Uchiha Obito"

As soon as this name was mentioned, the people of Kirigakure seemed to have a stress reaction.

The foreign affairs of the Fourth Mizukage are still vivid in our minds. What did that guy do to the entire Kirigakure?
To be frank, the person Kirigakure wants to kill the most is probably Uchiha Obito!
How could they not react when they heard this name now?
However, wanting to kill someone is one thing, but being able to kill them is another.
"So, let's talk about the benefits first."

Seeing the reactions of the Kirigakure people, Hidetsu also laughed.

“For this operation, you will handle Cardo’s side, and we in Konoha will deal with the Akatsuki people.

But in terms of profits, I think Konoha should take the lion's share.

After all, we are responsible for such a dangerous organization as Akatsuki, and you only need to kill Cardo and the ninjas he hired.

Konoha can even provide some personnel to assist you in your operations. What do you think of this allocation?"

"Sixty-four."

After hearing about Akatsuki's actions, Mei Terumi immediately understood that Konoha was going to lower the price.

They had been prepared for such a situation for a long time. After all, even if there was no Akatsuki, Konoha would definitely take the lion's share.

So she might as well make a trial offer first to see if there is any possibility of price reduction, but unfortunately Xiu Ze just shook his head.

“Impossible, otherwise you guys deal with the Akatsuki organization, and I will take people to kill Cardo.

As long as you can come back alive, I will give you 60%, otherwise it will be 82%, what do you think? "

"Don't go too far. Twenty percent, is that for a beggar?"

After listening to Hidezawa's proposal, even though Terumi Mei knew that they were no match for the Akatsuki organization, she could not bear it at this moment.

"30/70 split! After all, it was our suggestion. If it gets out, we in Kirigakure will be the ones taking the blame. We should definitely get the money for the scolding!"

Kirigakure is not a confirmed "terrorist organization" like Akatsuki, they still have to maintain their dignity.

Attacking wealthy businessmen would really damage their image!
Even if they can try to shift the blame to Akatsuki, the target of the problem is in Wave Country, and they have all come.

It is hard to say whether anyone will believe it at that time. Rumors can be spread like wildfire, and this is no joke.

Especially, they really did it
"37?"

Xiu Ze touched his chin, as if thinking seriously, and the whole audience fell silent involuntarily for a moment.

After a while, Xiu Ze nodded slightly and spoke.

"37 is fine, but there's one condition."

"You say, just don't go too far."

Mei Terumi hesitated for a moment before she spoke with a slight caution.

"That's not too much. You should know that Konoha will be hosting the Chunin Exams for the entire ninja world this time."

Xiu Ze smiled and spread his hands indifferently.

"So there's no guarantee that some scoundrels might do something, so..."

"Oh, is there any clear information?"

Mei Terumi frowned. This news seemed interesting.

"Yes, and according to some intelligence, your enemy, Akatsuki, is likely to be involved."

Xiu Ze still smiled, stretched slightly and continued.

“While Konoha can handle it, it would be better to have an ally take a stand so that we can focus more on dealing with other things.

Also, you should also know about the changes in Sunagakure, Rain Country, and the small countries around Konoha.

Konoha will never be bad to its own people, especially Tsunade-sama who is about to become the Fifth Hokage. I hope that as friends and allies, you can show some respect for them."

"Is that so?"

After hearing these words, Mei Terumi couldn't help but fall into deep thought. Of course, she knew all these things, and to be honest, she was naturally very envious.

After all, there is no country in the entire ninja world as rich as the Land of Fire, or as wealthy as Konoha.

Wouldn’t it be great if we could get more reinforcements from Konoha!
It will be possible to establish a more complete trade chain with Konoha, which is definitely not a bad thing for them, Kirigakure!
Thinking of this, Mei Terumi had an idea in her mind. Although she was not the Mizukage, she could still do many things.

“Okay, I will go back and inform the elders about this matter, but I believe the elders will not refuse.

At that time, Kirigakure will send outstanding ninjas to Konoha to take the assessment and cooperate with Konoha to maintain order.

However, we need to adjust the allocation this time. We can assist you in dealing with Akatsuki.

In addition, the specific follow-up measures and plans also need to be discussed in detail."

"The mission is over. Send someone back to inform Master Yuanshi, and send someone to Konoha to discuss the matter."

Xiu Ze smiled directly and stretched out his hand at the same time.

"So, happy working together?"

Mei Terumi nodded and also extended her hand, and the two quickly shook hands.

"Well, it's a pleasure to work with you."

Hidezawa and the others were discussing the distribution of benefits, while on the other side, Uchiha Obito, Uchiha Itachi, Orochimaru, Kakuzu and Biwa Juzo also came to the Land of Waves.

"This damn place really does look a bit like the Land of Water, with the same thick fog."

Kakuzu took a look at the surrounding environment and couldn't help but tease Biwa Juzo beside him.

"Speaking of which, this place can be considered Konoha's territory, and it can also be considered the area covered by Kirigakure. Aren't you afraid of running here?"

"Humph."

Biwa Juzang snorted coldly when he heard this. How should he answer this question?

It is impossible to say that he is not afraid. Neither Konoha nor Kirigakure is likely to let him go!
But if he was afraid, he really couldn't say it, so he simply changed the subject.

"Didn't you say you were going to go find Cardo? Why are you still here?"

"I'm not sure where Cardo is, but I got some very interesting information."

Uchiha Obito looked at the foggy road ahead and glanced meaningfully at Uchiha Itachi beside him.

"According to the intelligence, Kakashi and his three subordinates are heading towards the Land of Waves. I never thought that that loser could become a leading jonin."

"Kakashi?"

Uchiha Itachi frowned. He was wondering if Uchiha Obito wanted to get his Sharingan back?
And when he heard Kakashi's name, he himself was a little puzzled, because Kakashi and Shihara Hidezawa used to be teammates.

Unfortunately, Uchiha Obito didn't look at him, but turned to look at Orochimaru.

"Would you like to try out your improved technique here? Although it still has many flaws, didn't you say you had a breakthrough?"

"There have been some new breakthroughs, but they are technical breakthroughs. We are still lacking in materials and some necessary experiments."

Orochimaru did not hide the fact that Impure World Reincarnation has very high requirements in all aspects, even if the technique can be improved, the power can be enhanced.

But that still does not include perverts like Senju Hashirama, but
"But it's always a good idea to try. After all, we can also see the heroic figure of the Second Hokage. However, it may still be difficult to achieve his prime."

"It doesn't matter. I'm mentally prepared for this. Otherwise, we wouldn't be here. We still have time."

Uchiha Obito nodded indifferently, then looked forward.

"Okay, here comes the target. I'm really looking forward to your performance."

As they were talking, several figures appeared in the fog in the distance walking towards them.

Wherever Uchiha Itachi looked, he felt his blood run cold!
"Hmm? Pay attention, something's happening!"

On the road, Kakashi and the others were walking leisurely. They were not harassed by Zabuza and the others along the way, so they moved very quickly.

However, the journey was too quiet, which made Kakashi feel a little weird, but now he knew that trouble was coming.

But when he looked around, he suddenly felt his scalp tingling, especially when he saw the guy wearing the vortex mask, his body became a little stiff.

"Obito."

He murmured, and Sasuke's eyes seemed to turn red at this moment!
"It's you! Uchiha Itachi!"
