Naruto: By lying low and hiding, he eventually became the leader of the Legendary Sannin.

He hadn't paid much attention at first, but after hearing some familiar items, he couldn't help but calm down and listen attentively.

"I mean, is it really necessary to schedule night shifts to guard that warehouse every day?"

"Not many people in Konoha need what's inside. I haven't seen the Hokage take anything out of there in all these years."

"Hey, that's not how it works."

Some of the things inside are quite powerful.

for example...

For example, the ninja swords that Kagura-sama acquired during the Second Shinobi World War.

I remember it being placed inside too.

"Oh?

You mean the swords of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist?

"Hey, there's no such thing as the 'Seven Ninja Swordsmen' anymore..."

The remains of those people are probably rotting in the ground by now.

"No, wasn't it said there were only five in there?"

There are still two people left...

"What? Those two betrayed the village? You didn't know?"

"Forehead......

I really didn't know.

............

He was just eating quietly when he heard the familiar words "Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist".

Although he was only a Chunin, he was actually from the same generation as the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.

It can be said that for the people of Kirigakure of that generation, those seven people were once the targets they were chasing.

However, these elites he once admired were wiped out one day by that "monster" from Konoha.

Two of them became notorious rogue ninjas despised by the village.

However, these are all human reasons and do not affect the status of those ninja swords in his heart.

For him, those ninja swords held a significance that others could hardly imagine.

Unexpectedly, what started as a casual meal led him to hear about those ninja swords.

What excited him even more was that the two men beside him were the guards who were to keep watch at the warehouse that night.

So when he saw the two people walk out of the restaurant, he quickly followed them.

Being in Konoha Village, the two Konoha ninjas who were acting as guards had clearly lost the vigilance that ninjas should have.

The Chunin following behind them not only successfully found the so-called warehouse, but also easily sneaked into the warehouse and stole the ninja swords while the two were slacking off.

As he held those ninja swords in his hands, he still felt a sense of unreality.

Without lingering, and without even retrieving his luggage from the inn, he fled directly from Konoha Village.

Fearing pursuers, he didn't stop for a moment and ran wildly towards the Land of Water.

You should know that no matter how irresponsible the guards in Konoha are, they will definitely discover that the ninja swords have been stolen after dawn.

In his view, it was certain that Konoha would send pursuers.

So even though he didn't sense anyone chasing him from behind, he remained constantly vigilant.

After traveling for a day and a night, his eyes were filled with a glimmer of hope.

In another half day, he will reach the border of the Land of Fire. Once he gets on a small boat, even if Konoha sends people over, it will be difficult for them to find him on the vast ocean.

As a ninja from the Land of Water, he firmly believed that these pursuers from Konoha would not be able to find him on the high seas.

At this moment, his anxiety was gradually replaced by excitement, and his mind was filled with the scene of returning to the village with these ninja swords.

Although the Mizukage has become much more depressed over the years, if I can successfully bring these ninja swords back, I will definitely earn his praise.

even...

He might even have the honor of becoming a Jonin because of his meritorious service!

Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly, revealing a smile.

As for whether they will face condemnation and questioning from Konoha Village afterward?

Ha, let's not even talk about whether Konoha has any evidence that the Hidden Mist Village ninja stole the ninja sword.

Even if Konoha does have relevant evidence, they will be helpless once these ninja swords return to Kirigakure.

Because by then, neither Konoha nor Kirigakure would simply hand over their ninja swords because of a mere condemnation.

Therefore, the most crucial thing is whether I can get back to the village before the pursuers catch up.

Just as he was imagining himself becoming a new hero in the village for bringing back the ninja sword, the unexpected event he had imagined finally happened.

Swish!

With a soft whooshing sound, a shuriken suddenly shot out from the dark forest behind him, heading straight for his back.

Being constantly vigilant, he naturally noticed the attack immediately.

His body suddenly froze, and the shuriken flew past him, grazing his clothes.

Knowing that the pursuers he had imagined had arrived, he was terrified and quickly looked behind him.

However, the scene before him made him forget his fear for a moment, and he was slightly stunned.

Chapter 90 Father and son go into battle

Knowing that he was being pursued by Konoha soldiers, he drew his kunai and turned to assume a defensive stance after dodging the attack.

However, after seeing the pursuer's figure clearly, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

The pursuer was none other than Kagura, who had accepted the mission.

To make it easier to go on missions, he usually wears his Jonin uniform with a purple vest.

The reason the target was stunned at this moment was not because the other party recognized Kagura's true identity immediately.

Rather, it was because Kagura, who was standing in the tree at that moment, had a baby perched on each of her shoulders...

Unable to think of a solution immediately, Kagura steeled herself and decided to bring the two little ones along on the mission...

Of course, you could say he's a bit unreliable as a father; what kind of father takes his child into battle?

But in Kagura's view, a battle between a Chunin could hardly be considered a fight.

Keep in mind that back when he was just a genin, he could easily take down a chunin.

So whether it was confidence in her own strength or contempt for her opponent, Kagura finally took out a cloth bag and set off with the two children.

He then immediately went to the warehouse where the incident occurred, summoned a tailed beast, and made it sniff out the scent left behind by the enemies at the scene.

Although the One-Tailed Beast's true form is a tanuki, its sense of smell when it transforms into a puppy is no worse than that of an ordinary ninja dog.

After carefully sniffing the area for a while, it barked and pointed the way to Kagura.

It has to be said that after taking care of children, Kagura has found a new use for the tailed beasts.

Without needing Yiwei to lead the way, after communicating with Yiwei in his mind, he immediately left the village and chased after it in one direction.

However, having a child with her still caused Kagura some inconvenience.

He originally estimated that if he used the Chidori Stream, he could catch up with his target in just a few hours.

However, considering the burden on his two babies, he had to slow down and catch up slowly.

Finally, after spending most of the day, he finally saw the target.

Without the slightest hesitation, Kagura, who was in a hurry to take her child home to breastfeed, immediately threw a shuriken to stop the other party.

The Chunin stopped as he wished and immediately assumed a defensive stance towards him.

However, a moment later, the Chunin opposite Kagura showed a puzzled expression.

Although there are many strangely shaped ninjas in this world.

For example, someone completely covered in a raincoat, carrying strange ninja tools, or accompanied by a disgusting summoning beast, etc.

But this Chunin was the first time he had ever seen a ninja with two babies.

Could it be that it wasn't actually a human baby, but some kind of spirit beast?

Or perhaps it's shaped like a baby, but is actually some kind of powerful ninja tool?

The reason for making it look like a baby was to lower the enemy's guard.

Just as he was nervously guessing, he finally saw Kagura's appearance clearly under the moonlight.

At that moment, his eyes widened and his face turned pale instantly.

If we were to say which country's ninjas are most familiar with Kagura on this continent, it would definitely be Kirigakure (Hidden Mist Village).

Having suffered many heavy losses at the hands of Kagura, the higher-ups of Kirigakure had long ago educated the village's ninjas.

While distributing images of Kagura, they warned that if they encountered the person in the image, they should flee as quickly as possible without hesitation.

Thinking of the glorious achievements of the person in front of him, the Chunin couldn't help but swallow nervously.

this...

I expected Konoha to send people to hunt me down, but I didn't expect them to send this Grim Reaper.

I'm just a Chunin, is this really necessary?

If I had known, I wouldn't have stolen those ninja swords.

At this moment, the excitement he had felt earlier was gone, replaced only by regret.

Just as he was waiting for Kagura to pronounce his death sentence, Kagura, who had been looking cold and stern, suddenly changed her expression.

Then he raised his right hand and said something slightly apologetic:
