Naruto: I, who didn't want to be hacked to pieces, saved the ninja world.

"hehe."

Bai Yun Qingye simply smiled and stepped aside, saying, "Please come in first."

"Oh."

Seeing that Baiyun Qingye did not refuse, Heitu obediently went inside as well.

"It seems that little sister Heitu has a very good physique."

Mei Terumi saw Kuroto walk in and made a teasing remark with a smile.

"Humph!"

Upon hearing this, Heitu gave a haughty snort and didn't even glance at her.

But after smelling the aroma coming from the kitchen, she subconsciously swallowed hard.

"Heitu, haven't you had breakfast yet?"

Shirokumo Aoba noticed this.

Hei Tu nodded, his face slightly flushed. "I ran away secretly."

He's quite rebellious.

Shirokumo Aoba thought to herself, then looked at Uzuki Yugao, "Yugao-neechan, how about we prepare another serving of ramen?"

Uzuki Yugao gave Aoba a meaningful look, then nodded.

"Th...thank you!"

Kurotsuchi immediately thanked Uzuki Yugao.

"Please sit down."

Uzuki Yugao nodded to her as well.

"Ok."

Kurotsuchi sat down opposite Mei Terumi.

Shirakumo Aoba sat down on the other side and looked at Terumi Mei, "Are you going out today?"

Mei Terumi nodded matter-of-factly, "Of course."

Baiyun Qingye had gotten used to it, and then looked at Heitu, "Then your challenge will still be this afternoon. Do you want to go out and play with us today?"

"Okay, okay!"

Upon hearing this, Heitu's eyes immediately lit up.

Chapter 209 The Hidden Cloud Trio

"Challenge Aoba? You?"

Yakumo looked at the short-haired black girl in front of him with a displeased expression.

When she and Hinata came over and saw each other, they thought Aoba had found them another girlfriend.

I'm in a very bad mood.

Only after Bai Yunqingye explained did he realize that this guy had come to challenge him.

Although this improved Yakumo's mood considerably, she still felt somewhat uncomfortable.

Is Aoba someone that can be challenged so easily?

Upon hearing this, Heitu also frowned.

Are you looking down on the ninjas of Iwagakure?

"Ah!"

Yakumo simply smiled dismissively, "Dealing with someone like you doesn't require Aoba's help; I'm enough!"

Do you dare accept my challenge?

"challenge?!"

Upon hearing the challenge, Kurotsuchi's expression turned serious. "What's your name?"

Yakumo crossed his arms and declared, "I am Kurama Yakumo of the Kurama clan of Konoha!"

"The Kurama clan? I don't think I've ever heard of them."

Heitu gave a somewhat bewildered look, but she meant no harm; she simply hadn't heard of it before.

She could immediately tell that the little girl next to her, who also seemed hostile towards her, was from the Hyuga clan.

There's also Karin with red hair, who should be a member of the Uzumaki clan.

But she really didn't have much of an impression of the Kurama clan.

The Kurama clan may have had a great reputation in the past, after all, they were invited to join Konoha by the First Hokage, but now their talent pool has dwindled and they no longer have the fame they once had.

Yakumo understood this, so although his expression was a bit grim, he wasn't too angry.

"Hmph! You'll remember this once you lose to me."

She's determined to revitalize the Kurama clan, starting with defeating the Tsuchikage's disciple.

"Hmph! Then I'll accept your challenge."

Kurotsuchi's aura was naturally no weaker than Yakumo's; she too aspired to become the Tsuchikage.

As soon as she finished speaking, she added another sentence.

"However, the challenge will have to wait until the afternoon."

"why?"

Yakumo looked puzzled.

Kurotsuchi pointed at Shirakumo Aoba and Terumi Mei, and said matter-of-factly, "Because I already promised them that I would go out and play with them."

"..."

The two people being pointed at were speechless. It was clearly her own idea to play, but she was using them as an excuse.

"no problem!"

After hearing Kurotsuchi's reasons, Yakumo readily agreed, since she was going to go along anyway.

Seeing that the two had finally reached an agreement, the group prepared to head out.

"Sister Xiyan, shall we go out then... Hmm? Are you planning to go out too?"

Baiyun Qingye wanted to greet Xiyan, but saw that she had already changed into her outdoor clothes.

Uzuki Yugao nodded. "I'm taking Tenten and the others to training today. I asked them to gather at my house, but everyone except Karin is late."

Karin's house is right next door, so she definitely won't be late. However, Tenten and Sakura usually come together.

"...Maybe something happened on the way that caused a delay, but we should arrive soon."

Baiyun Qingye explained to them that Xiaoying probably overslept.

Uzuki Yugao didn't say anything, she just tied up her long purple hair.

The expression on his face spoke volumes.

There's not much else to say about Shirokumo Aoba; all we can do is pray that Sakura and the others have good luck.

The group left the Thousand Hands ancestral home and headed towards the commercial street.

Uzuki Yugao and Karin stood at the door of the house, waiting for Tenten and Sakura to arrive.

However, Shirokumo Aoba and the others encountered Tenten and Sakura in a great hurry on the way.

He complained about Sakura every day, while Sakura looked guilty and didn't dare to look up.

The group didn't chat much, exchanged greetings, and parted ways, since Xi Yan could be quite frightening when she got angry.

However, despite Sakura's misfortune every day, it didn't dampen the group's mood for shopping.

We'll continue to eat and play as usual.

Time flies.

……

"Konoha is really lively."

"After all, it's the Chunin Exams jointly organized by the five great ninja villages, so it's normal for it to be a bit lively."

The surrounding area was bustling with crowds.

Three beautiful figures walked through the streets of Konoha, attracting the attention of many people.

Of course, most people's attention was focused on one of them.

I forgot to turn off auto-aim.

"Yugito, Azaburo, we're not here in Konoha for sightseeing!"

Samui couldn't help but remind the two people who came with her.

Her expression wasn't very pleasant.

Judging from the direction the three of them were heading, they had probably just left the Hokage Building.

"We've just traveled such a long way, we need to rest and relax. Besides, Samui, we're already in Konoha, you should relax a little."

"Otherwise, it's easy for the ninjas of Konoha to notice something."

Compared to Samui, who looked displeased, Yugito and Azabui were much more relaxed.

"I'm just really annoyed. I just want to see how Atsui is doing now. That Hokage won't even let me see him."

Thinking about Tsunade's attitude just now, Samui wanted nothing more than to punch her in the face.

However, her rationality made her put the idea aside.

Now is definitely not the time to clash with Konoha, as Atsui is still in their hands.

Moreover, they had other plans besides leading the team to participate in the Chunin Exams in Konoha.
