In Konoha, they wiped out the Sarutobi clan at the start.

"What is that?"

Chinatsu, Hinata, Kakashi, Kiba, Shino, Karin, Naruto, and Yamato—the Konoha ninjas scattered throughout the area on missions to capture Itachi Uchiha and search for Sasuke Uchiha—all stopped and gazed toward the giant mushroom cloud of lightning.

The blinding electric light made them squint, and their eyes were briefly blinded.

Just moments ago, they only felt a streak of light flash by, and by the time they reacted, a violent explosion that swept across an area of ​​several kilometers rang out in the distance.

"Kakashi, what's that?" Pakkun, the ninja dog in Kakashi's team, tilted his head and asked Kakashi.

"Is this feeling... Akatsuki?" Kakashi replied, staring at the massive explosion that lingered in front of him. He couldn't think of anyone else besides the Akatsuki's group of espers who could have done this.

"Shall we go take a look?" Parker continued to ask.

"The attack came from somewhere else, but we can't confirm exactly where it came from yet. However, we assume that others will also be heading there. For safety's sake, let's go and check it out." Kakashi said, and with a flash, he rushed towards the direction of the explosion.

Besides Chinatsu, the other members of Konoha were also rushing towards the direction of the explosion.

Karin, in particular, seemed unusually excited because he sensed Chiya's chakra during the explosion. He wished he had more legs, as he was faster than Yamato and Naruto who were traveling with him.

As for Chika, she had already been blocked by Yekura before the explosion even began.

The two remained locked in a standoff for a long time.

Only after the explosion did one of the ninja dogs standing next to Chinatsu speak, "This kind of attire? Is it Akatsuki?"

The ninja dog looked wary as it saw Ye Cang dressed in a black robe with red clouds and a wind chime hat.

The other ninja dog nodded gravely and said, "It seems so. According to Kakashi's intelligence, among the known members of the organization, only Fujiwara Chiya's partner is female. In other words, Fujiwara Chiya is very likely nearby. Perhaps that ridiculously exaggerated explosion was caused by her."

"What should we do? Chika, the other party seems to have ill intentions." The two ninja dogs looked at Chika at the same time.

From Yekura's inner thoughts, Chinatsu deduced that it was Chiya who had sent her to find her.

The purpose was to prevent himself from getting close to that area before the battle ended.

But there were still two of Kakashi's ninja dogs around, and Chiyo didn't want to expose herself, so she had to get rid of them first.

Thinking of this, Chika shook her head and said, "You two are not suited for this level of combat. Continue along the direction of the explosion. Kakashi and the others should be there. I'll hold him off here."

"Then be careful." The ninja dogs knew how powerful Chika was, and they also knew how troublesome the Akatsuki organization was. Even if the two of them stayed here, they couldn't help in any way.

Rather than that, it would be better to go and seek reinforcements.

As the saying goes, if you're going to put on a show, you have to go all the way. Just as the ninja dog was about to run away, Yekura casually recognized two kunai, but they were pinned down by the kunai thrown by Chinatsu. She coldly said, "I won't let you get away with this so easily."

At this point, Chika glanced at the two ninja dogs that had already gone far away, and the coldness on her face suddenly disappeared, replaced by a gentle smile.

To Ye Cang's astonishment, he trotted forward, took Ye Cang's hand, and said with a smile, "So, should I call you 'older sister' or 'stepmother'?"

Hinata was also blocked; she was stopped by Chiya while heading towards the direction of the explosion.

To Hinata's slight surprise, the two ninja dogs seemed not to have seen Chiya at all and simply ran away.

She was left all alone.

"Little Hinata," dressed in a red cloud-patterned black robe and wearing a wind chime hat, waved to Hinata.

Hinata was startled. That voice... "Are you Chiya-nii-nii?"

Qianye nodded slightly, slowly took off his straw hat, revealing a young and handsome face.

Confirming that it was the person she had been longing for day and night, Hinata abandoned her shyness and rushed into Chiya's arms like a whirlwind. She wrapped her arms around Chiya's waist and cried as she said, "Thank goodness, thank goodness, you're alright."

Since the successive defeats of Akatsuki members such as Sasori, Kakuzu, and Hidan.

I dream about it all the time.

Hinata would always think of this older brother who appeared like a hero in her childhood and saved her twice in a row;

This older brother, who had been checking her body under various pretexts ever since the Chunin Exams.

Hinata felt a chill run down her spine whenever she thought about this.

She worried that one day, Chiya would suffer the same fate as the previous Akatsuki members.

"Alright, why did you suddenly start crying? Is it because your brother hasn't checked your physical development these past few months?" Feeling the softness against his chest and the sweet fragrance of a virgin wafting into his nose, Chiya smiled slightly and gently stroked Hinata's face.

Hinata blushed and wiped away her tears, but she had no time to feel ashamed. With red eyes, she said urgently, "Brother Chiya, can you promise me something?"

"What is it?" Chiya asked, somewhat surprised. This was the first time Hinata had ever asked him for a favor.

"Leave Akatsuki," Hinata said solemnly. "Don't follow those Akatsuki people anymore. I'm worried you'll..."

Before Hinata could finish speaking, Chiya, as if reading her mind, took over the conversation, "Are you worried that I'll end up like Kakuzu and Hidan?"

Hinata closed her eyes in pain, nodded slightly, and then heard Chiya say, "It's not the right time yet."

We have to wait until the Fourth Shinobi World War ends, no matter what.

Moreover, he was really looking forward to the feeling of standing atop the Ten-Tails, looking down on all living beings.

It would be too boring if you didn't play until the very end.

There's no way around it, being invincible is just too lonely.

"But..." Hinata wanted to continue persuading Chiya to leave Akatsuki, but then seemed to remember something, and mustered her courage to stammer, "Chiya-nii, do you remember what you told me?"

"What did you say?" Chiya was taken aback. He had said so many things, and every time it was to check Hinata's physical development.

Hinata's cheeks grew increasingly flushed, her pretty face practically blushing.

"As long as I massage you, then, Brother Qianye, you should just quit Xiao."

Hinata said, looking around. Seeing that no one was around, she actually took Chiya's hand and placed it on her breast.

Hinata went to great lengths to get Chiya to leave Akatsuki.

"You really are a silly girl. But you have indeed grown a lot." Sensing the amazing thing in her hand, Qianye was taken aback, and a warm feeling instantly flowed through her heart. Her words had a double meaning.

"So, Chiyo-nii, you agree?" Hinata's eyes lit up, and she asked urgently, not caring that one of her younger sisters was still being held by Chiyo.

Chiya nodded. He didn't want to let down the little girl he had watched grow up since she was a child, but it was definitely impossible for him to leave the Akatsuki now. So he said, "I will find a way to leave the Akatsuki within six months."

Six months later, the Fourth Shinobi World War had ended.

Whether you retreat or not doesn't matter.
