Arashi nodded: "We've already taken care of those two or three Hidden Mist Village ninjas. They didn't leave because they were afraid you wouldn't be able to find us."

Upon hearing this, Qu Feng couldn't help but ponder: Was the forbidden technique of the Earth Spider Clan really that alluring? Was it worth them traveling across the ocean to the Land of Fire to hunt it down?

Kirigakure shouldn't be lacking in forbidden techniques, right? Is it really necessary to force them like this?

Even Tokiwa couldn't understand Kirigakure's decision, nor could he interfere. All he could do was ensure the safety of the Tsuchigumo clan on their journey back to the village.

It didn't take long for the Tsuchigumo clan members to finish packing. Qufeng jumped off Qingyun and led everyone towards Konoha Village.

The pace was neither too fast nor too slow, just enough for them to keep up and not fall behind.

Qingyun, meanwhile, kept watch in the sky, observing whether any pursuers were closing in, and constantly reminding Qufeng of the terrain ahead.

They cooperated all the way and nothing unexpected happened.

It was best that we didn't encounter any ninjas from Kirigakure, otherwise it would have just led to more bloodshed.

Several hours later, they left the forest and entered the plains, which meant they were not far from Konoha Village.

Moreover, once we enter the plains, we can relax a bit. With Qingyun watching from the sky, it's virtually impossible for any ninja to escape Qingyun's eyes.

Finally, just past noon, the Spider Clan of the Wind Belt returned to Konoha Village.

Unlike last time, this time there were no villagers lining the streets to welcome them, presumably because Lord Tobirama had not informed them.

But none of that matters; the important thing is to get them to see the Hokage as soon as possible.

When the guards saw that Qu Feng had returned to the village with a large group of people, they came out and met with Qu Feng.

Since the Hokage had informed them of this beforehand, the process didn't take long before they were allowed to pass.

The guards couldn't help but wonder when they saw this large family. How come Lord Qufeng always manages to bring back a whole family?

Chapter 175 Catching a Spy

The guards couldn't help but wonder when they saw this large family. How come Lord Qufeng always manages to bring back a whole family?

Upon entering Konoha Village, the villagers on the street were very curious to see Toru and the group of people behind him.

Could this be another newly joined family?

A few people who were familiar with Qu Feng came up and quietly asked him a few questions.

They didn't hide the fact that they were collecting wind, after all, it wasn't a secret.

"This is the Tsuchigumo clan, who have recently joined Konoha Village. I hope everyone will take good care of them in the future."

Hearing what Toru said, the villagers understood that, like the Miyajo clan, they had come to seek refuge in Konoha. It seemed that the village was indeed powerful.

The villagers naturally welcomed the new family members, seeing it as a symbol of the village's growing strength and increasing trust.

Everyone felt very proud.

Some villagers, seeing that the children of the Earth Spider clan were all pale and thin, took out some food from their homes and gave it to them.

The Tsuchigumo clan accepted all the villagers' kindness; the villagers of Konoha were a very warm-hearted group of people.

This was their first impression of Konoha.

After exchanging pleasantries with the villagers for a while, Toru led the Territory Spider clan to the Hokage Building.

The villagers knew that the person collecting the wind had a mission to complete, so they didn't bother them too much.

Since the Hokage Building is not open to just anyone, the Tsuchigumo clan members were arranged to wait outside the building. Only Torifu brought Arashi to the Hokage's office.

The office door was open, and Qu Feng knocked to signal that he had arrived.

"Lord Hokage, this is Arashi Tsuchigumo, the head of the Tsuchigumo clan."

"Lan, this is the Second Hokage of Konoha Village, Lord Tobirama Senju."

Arashi bowed to Tobirama, who nodded and then gestured for him not to be so polite.

"I have heard about your family's situation from the wind. Konoha Village has chosen to accept you, and this will be your new home from now on."

Lan was deeply moved upon hearing this and bowed deeply again: "On behalf of my clan, I sincerely thank you, Hokage-sama."

"We finally don't have to wander anymore."

Tobirama got up and walked to Arashi's side, patting him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, from now on you have a home. After listening to Kaze's account of your battle, I also learned about your family's forbidden techniques."

"Although I personally trust you, I still have to be responsible to the villagers."

Then Tobirama told Arashi about the agreement that forbidden techniques could not be used within dozens of miles of Konoha Village.

Lan readily agreed.

He rarely uses forbidden techniques, nor does he use them to commit violence. He only uses forbidden techniques with full force in times of crisis.

Just like yesterday's battle with Qu Feng, seeing that the enemy's strength was much higher than his own, he had no choice but to use forbidden techniques in order to protect his people.

In the end, it turned out to be a misunderstanding, and he was also glad that he was fighting against the Wind Chaser, who easily neutralized his forbidden technique.

Otherwise, he would already be being hunted down by Konoha.

"Since you agree, I have no other requirements, as long as you abide by this."

Lan nodded to indicate that she would definitely keep her promise, and then asked, "Lord Hokage, where will our clan live? Are there any arrangements?"

"Yes, to help you integrate into Konoha more quickly, I've arranged for your clan's territory to be located next to the Senju clan's territory, which is my clan's territory. If you need anything, you can come directly to me."

He then added, "However, the clan's territory hasn't started construction yet, so you'll have to make do with the guesthouse for a few months. There's another clan that just joined Konoha there, and I hope you can befriend them."

Lan was somewhat surprised that other families were asking Konoha for help. However, she didn't care.

The two clans that have just joined Konoha are sure to be able to gain a foothold in the village by joining forces. I just don't know what kind of clan they are. I hope they are not too arrogant.

There was nothing else to do, and Tobirama handed over all the subsequent work to Kagami.

At this moment, Tobirama finally understood how his older brother felt back then; it felt so good to have someone help you.

As Kagami's work efficiency increased, Tobirama's rest time also increased. However, he still did most things personally, which was also out of responsibility to the villagers.

"Then, Lord Hokage, I shall take my leave now," Lan said respectfully.

Tobirama waved his hand: "Yes, someone will come to find you in a while. Just tell him what you need. If he can do it, he will try his best."

"How could I trouble you?" After saying that, Lan turned and left the Hokage Building.

"This Lan is quite talented. He's about the same age as Hiruzen and his strength is also quite good. However, he's better than Hiruzen because he possesses forbidden techniques."

After thinking for a moment, Qu Feng said, "I don't think so. Hiruzen still has the Four-Tails. I think Sasuke must have already passed the Four-Tails on to him."

Tobirama nodded: "Sasuke does have this idea, and my older brother has agreed. All the major clans have the idea of ​​entrusting the tailed beasts to the younger generation to control, so that they can cooperate more smoothly as they grow up together."

The heads of the various clans are all over fifty years old, and even if they use the power of the tailed beasts, their achievements will be limited.

It would be better to hand over the Tailed Beasts directly to the most talented child, who might even be able to comprehend the secrets of Tailed Beast Escape Techniques from them.

"I think we still need to examine the temperament of the holder. After all, the tailed beasts still belong to the village. It is the village that decides who gets them, not the clan leaders."

Tobirama also affirmed the idea of ​​obtaining wind, stating that the village decides how the tailed beasts are passed down.

However, there's no need for such a domineering approach. It would be better to have each family submit their names, and then have the village review them.

It all comes down to temperament, strength, and talent, with temperament being the most important. If one lacks temperament, it is absolutely impossible to become a user of a tailed beast.

Tobirama thought that Tokifu's method was feasible, so he made some minor modifications and used it directly.

Recently, many clan leaders have suggested to him that the tailed beasts be passed on to the younger generation of their clans. This is a good opportunity to test whether they are up to the task.

"By the way, Wind Boy, do you remember what our informant in Kumogakure said about the Land of Lightning making a move?"

"Of course, Tobirama-sama, it hasn't been that long."

"The Hidden Cloud Village has always been very warlike, always provoking us intentionally or unintentionally, and they have sent seven or eight spies."

The more Tobirama spoke, the more gloomy his face became. Seeing Tobirama's appearance, Torifu felt that something bad might happen to Kumogakure.

"I have information on all the spies in Kumogakure. Go and arrest them!"

Chapter 175 A Rare Day Off

"I have information on all the spies in Kumogakure. Go and arrest them!"

Qu Feng took the list from the table and glanced at it briefly.

"Hmm...their strength isn't that great, about the same as that Tanabe Mitsuzo..."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Tobirama realized he had let something slip! Just as he was about to change the subject, Tobirama asked...

Who is Tanabe Michizo?

Toru scratched his head: "Haha, he was a ninja I killed in the Land of Lightning, a Chunin-level ninja."

Tobirama didn't doubt it, nodded, and continued, "These people aren't very strong. You should be able to handle this in a day, right? Come here to deliver it tomorrow at noon."

"Of course, we guarantee that the task will be completed on time."

With the wind detection confirmed, the system notification sounded: [Rank B Mission: Capture the Spy, Accepted]

Very good, I can earn some peace points again. He always complained that the two families he brought back from Qufeng had hardly contributed any peace points to him, which made him a little depressed.

However, he didn't dwell on it too much, since it had brought some new blood to the village, so it was a worthwhile endeavor.

"Alright, I have nothing else to do here. You should go home now."

"Okay, I'm off now."

After saying that, Qu Feng left the office and headed home.

As for catching spies, it wouldn't even take a day. Just send out a few clones, and they can be caught in half a day.

Tobirama was aware of Tokiwa's strength, and the implication of having Tokiwa deliver the mission by noon the next day was that he shouldn't come tonight to increase the workload.

However, after returning home, Qu Feng thought it over and over again, and in order to ensure the mission would go perfectly, he sent out his shadow clones early on.

There are eight shadow clones in total, each monitoring the actions of one of the eight spies. They will be arrested first thing tomorrow morning.

It has to be said that the Hidden Cloud Village is a bit too ruthless, sending so many spies here, do they want to expose Konoha's dirty secrets?

Konoha Village only sent one spy.

After confirming that the clone had not been discovered, Qu Feng continued with his own business. It has to be said that the shadow clone is more useful than the crystal clone.
