"Now it seems that I am not worried that you have been tricked by Orochimaru."

"You're going to have to empty out Orochimaru's belongings."

Kushina complained, "Besides, I have to bear the blame. You are such a good disciple of mine!"

Qian He laughed awkwardly and said, "Haha, isn't it because Teacher Kushina is bored staying in Konoha Village, so why not find something for you to do?"

"Thank you!"

Kushina rolled her eyes at Chiga but put the list away anyway.

You know what, after not causing any trouble for a while, it's quite exciting when something big suddenly happens.

Chiga also chuckled, he knew Kushina would not refuse.

In this way, you can save yourself a lot of expenses.

By waiting until Jiraiya finds the secret realm for himself, he could save a lot on the crows' rations.

I am finally going to get out of the moonlight clan.

"By the way, Teacher Kushina, you should be more careful in Konoha Village recently!"

"Some time ago, I felt that there were some prying eyes around you."

Kushina's identity as a Jinchūriki has been revealed after the great battle on the front line, and basically everyone in the village knows about it.

Although there have been no assassination attempts in the past half month, there are indeed many people spying on them secretly. Qianhe had sensed several malicious gazes a few days ago.

However, before he could make a move, these malicious intentions disappeared completely. It seems that the Anbu who were protecting him in secret are also quite capable.

"Yeah, you too, don't work too hard on the front lines. Orochimaru won't take good care of you like he would Sister Tsunade!"

Hearing this, Kushina also nodded.

Chapter 201 Qianhe: It's my fault that you like me

The beginning of Konoha 47.

The ninja world has become a mess.

The enemies of the major ninja villages at this stage are:

Enemies of Konoha: Kumogakure, Iwagakure, and Mistgakure

Cloud Village's enemies: Konoha, Iwagakure, and Kirigakure

Enemies of Sand Village: Iwagakure

Enemies of Iwagakure: Konoha, Kumogakure, and Sandagakure

Kirigakure's enemies: Konoha, Kumogakure

It seems that every place in the entire ninja world is at war.

This puts hardship on the small countries between the big powers, which can only lie low and allow themselves to be ravaged by the five major powers.

The eastern border of the Fire Nation, the coastal area.

Because it is close to the sea, the humidity in the air is seriously exceeded.

Since the main purpose of sending Team Chiga to the Water Country was to investigate the disappearance of members of the Hyuga clan, there was plenty of time.

Qianhe and the other three also slowly rushed to the front line.

At noon, the four of them were eating and chatting, but as the fog grew thicker, they lost the mood to chat.

Sarutobi, Asuma and the other two looked at Chiga silently.

After Chiga's Sharingan scanned the surroundings, she sighed.

"Four people, no jonin."

"Do you still need me to help?"

Hearing this, a gleam of light flashed in the eyes of Sarutobi, Asuma and the other two, and then they disappeared in front of Chiga.

Chiga was not idle either. He used his Sharingan to observe the fight between the four people.

His Sharingan has undergone systematic transformation and its observation ability is no different from that of the Byakugan.

So you can see the fight between the three people very clearly.

The sounds of fighting gradually faded away.

Eventually it disappeared.

Sarutobi, Asuma and the other two dragged four corpses to Chiga.

"At least leave one alive to ask for information, but you guys just killed them all."

Chiga glanced at Sarutobi, Asuma and the other two.

Sarutobi Asuma spread his hands and said, "Who knew this guy was so weak? He was killed in just a few hits!"

“Five thousand words!”

"Oh"

It was just a small episode, but Qianhe didn’t pay much attention to it. After finishing his meal, he continued on his way.

Not long after Chiga's team set out, they encountered a team of patrolling Konoha ninjas.

Looking at the other party's murderous look, if Qianhe hadn't given a secret signal in time to confirm their identity, Qianhe suspected that they would attack without questioning.

After confirming the identities of Qianhe and the others, the leader of the other ninja pointed at the Mist Ninja on Asuma's shoulder and asked, "What's the matter with this Mist Ninja?"

Upon hearing this, Qianhe briefly recounted what happened last night, and then wanted to ask if anyone knew why the Mist Ninja appeared here.

"This brother."

But the ninja interrupted Qianhe's words rudely and said in a cold tone: "Hinata Yuuki, this is my name. Our relationship is not yet to the point where we can call each other brothers. You can call me Captain Yuuki."

The relationship between the Uchiha clan and the Hyuga clan had never been very good, and recently the Hyuga clan had lost too many of its own people, causing everyone to have bad tempers.

In addition, they knew that the Uchiha clan was originally going to come to support the Water Country, but for some reason, they did not come.

That's why his attitude became bad as soon as we met.

Qian He was too lazy to argue with him: "Captain Yuuki, did something happen?"

"The Mist Ninja attacked the frontline headquarters two days ago."

Hinata Yuuki replied briefly.

Sarutobi, Asuma and the other two were shocked. The front-line command center was attacked. This was a big deal.

Yuhi Kurenai asked subconsciously: "The Mist Ninja bypassed the tightly arranged defense line? This is impossible. Could it be that the Mist Ninja broke through our defense line?"

Hinata Yuuki glanced at Yuhi Kurenai and said, "Five days ago, the Land of Lightning and the Land of Water had a large-scale battle in the Land of Hot Springs."

Sarutobi, Asuma and the other two were stunned for a moment. This sentence seemed a bit irrelevant.

The battle between the Land of Lightning and the Land of Water is a good thing for Konoha. Both sides are now at war with Konoha. If they can cause the loss of a large number of ninjas to each other, it will undoubtedly increase Konoha's chances of winning.

But Sarutobi, Asuma and the other two still didn't understand what the connection was between the battle between the two sides and the Mist Ninja's raid on the Konoha headquarters.

Qian He didn't understand for a moment, but Asuma asked directly: "What does their fight have to do with us?"

Hinata Yuuki originally didn't want to pay attention to it, but the person who asked the question was the son of the current Hokage, so he had to give the Buddha some consideration.

He organized his words and explained, "Originally, the entire Hot Spring Country was under the control of the Lightning Country, but after being defeated by the Water Country, they retreated to the northern part of the Hot Spring Country, while the southern part was occupied by the Mist Ninja."

This explanation only made Asuma and Kurenai more confused, and Chiga whispered thoughtfully, "I see."

This bit of information was enough for Chiga to understand why the Mist Ninja was able to bypass the ninja in front of him.

The Kingdom of Soup was originally under the control of the Kingdom of Thunder.

The Land of Lightning has also been using the Land of Hot Springs as a base to launch invasions on Konoha, but in fact, most of their ninjas are in the northern part of the Land of Hot Springs.

The southern part of the Land of Hot Springs does not border the Land of Lightning and is separated by the sea. If it is used as a strategic location, the supply line will be very long, which is not worth the cost compared to the north. Therefore, it is not an important strategic location for them, and they never attack Konoha from the south.

Over time, without any enemy invasion and due to the number of people, Konoha's defense force in the southern part of the Land of Hot Springs was relatively reduced.

The Land of Water saw this point and after defeating the few Cloud Ninjas remaining in the southern part of the Land of Hot Springs, it launched a lightning attack, heading straight for Konoha's headquarters, launching a blitzkrieg in an attempt to secure victory in the war in one fell swoop.

It was the Land of Lightning that lost a strategic location, but it was Konoha that was damaged.

After figuring this out, Qianhe explained it to Sarutobi Asuma and the other two who were still confused, and then asked Hinata Yuuki: "So what's the situation at the headquarters?"

"With Lord Orochimaru in charge, how could those damn Mist Ninjas possibly succeed!"

Hinata Yuuki said hatefully.

Obviously, the Water Country's tight plan completely lost its meaning and did not cause much damage to the command center.

Chiga also smiled silently. Orochimaru was not so easy to fool. The Water Country might end up losing more than it gained. The group of ninjas who launched the sneak attack were probably killed here.

The team he encountered today was probably the last remaining forces.

Hinata Yuuki said: "I still have a mission, so I'll take my leave now."

After saying that, without waiting for Qianhe and the others to reply, he and his team disappeared from Qianhe's sight.

Asuma Sarutobi looked at the direction where Hyuga Yuuki's team left and asked in confusion: "What's going on? Are the Hyuga clan so bad-tempered?"

Qianhe didn't explain, just waved his hand to signal to set off.

Half a day later, Qianhe and others arrived at the entrance of the command department. Two guards blocked their way. After confirming their identities, a ninja came over and informed the three that they could go in.

Although the Water Country's surprise attack did not cause much damage, it made the ninjas in the command center very nervous and their vigilance was greatly increased.

"Lord Orochimaru, the Chiga Squad is reporting in."

In the command center, only Orochimaru was sitting in the front. At this moment, he was concentrating on looking at the map. After hearing Chiga's words, he slowly turned around.

"So it's you! Sarutobi-sensei just told me there's a team that needs my training, and I was wondering who it could be!"

Orochimaru said with a hint of interest, his magnetic voice carrying a strange charm.

Qianhe rolled his eyes. This guy used illusion right from the start. Is he addicted to child trafficking?

Orochimaru didn't care that his trick had no effect on Chiga, and continued, "It's been more than three months since we last met, Chiga-kun? I heard that you have made great contributions on the Sand Shinobi front! You are worthy of being my favorite!"

Chiga got goosebumps all over his body when Orochimaru looked at him. He instantly remembered the time when Orochimaru stabbed him with a syringe, and felt a chill.

It's really my fault that you fancy me!

He went straight to the point and said, "Lord Orochimaru, Lord Hokage asked us to come here to obey your orders. I wonder if you have made any arrangements?"

Hearing this, Orochimaru held his chin with one hand, thought for a while, and said, "I think on the way here, you have learned about what happened recently through indirect means, right?"

"Lord Orochimaru, do you want us to clear out the Mist Ninjas remaining behind?" Chiga asked.

"Hehe, you don't need to worry about these ninjas."

A cold light flashed in Orochimaru's snake-like pupils. The Mist Ninja went around and raided the headquarters. Did they really think he was just a decoration?

This is too disrespectful to him.

Chiga smiled awkwardly. Orochimaru was not a good person. If he hadn't cleaned up these ninjas in so many days, he would not have been able to serve as the commander of the front line.

"Although the Water Country's plan did not succeed this time, it also put pressure on us. If they continue to use the Soup Country as a springboard to attack our rear from the side and cooperate with a large-scale frontal attack, the situation will be very unfavorable to us."

"Wait, Lord Orochimaru!"

Before Orochimaru could finish, Sarutobi Asuma interrupted him and asked, "Could it be that after the Cloud Ninja suffered such a great loss, they will not retake the southern part of the Land of Hot Water?"

Orochimaru didn't mind Asuma Sarutobi interrupting him and chuckled, "From what I know, the Kumo Ninja have no intention of taking back the southern part of the Land of Hot Springs."

"Why? Can the Cloud Ninja bear this?"

Asuma Sarutobi didn't quite understand.

"Stupid!" Qianhe looked at Asuma with disdain and explained for Orochimaru: "The more pressure the Water Country puts on us, the easier it will be for the Cloud Ninja to fight against us."

Originally, the southern part of the Land of Hot Springs was useless and dispensable to both Konoha and the Cloud Ninja, but things became different after the Land of Water intervened.

The Cloud Ninjas were happy to hand over this strategic location to the Water Country so that they could use it to tie down Konoha's ninja forces.

Qianhe had to say that the top leaders of these big countries were all fucking acting queens. It seemed that the Cloud Ninjas were driven out of the southern part of the Land of Hot Springs, but who knows if they did it on purpose.
