On the podium, Umino Yinluka looked at the chattering students and felt a little dizzy.
The last class of the day is like this. Most children's attention and concentration have been exhausted after a whole day of studying. They are just waiting to go home to eat, play, and sleep. Almost no one listens attentively.
Yin Luka looked at the last row in the middle. Akimichi Choji was the source of this confusion.
Every time his stomach makes a hollow sound, the other students know that school will be out in ten minutes at most, and start packing their schoolbags.
Immediately afterwards, Akamaru, the ninja dog who heard the strange noise and didn't know why, would make an urgent, sharp and short bark to alert Inuzuka Kiba. The noise made the surrounding students panic, and even Yamanaka Ino and Haruno Sakura in the first row would turn around.
Come over and have a big fight with Inuzuka Kiba.
Ever since, widespread chaos began.
The buzzing noise in the classroom made Yin Luka upset. At this time, he looked at the students who had always been quiet and found them very pleasing to the eye.
Shino Aburame disappeared immediately after class and went straight to the flowers to observe various insects. During class, she wore sunglasses and remained motionless (not taking notes) and said nothing. Yinluka suspected many times that he was blatantly killing insects.
He went to sleep, but when he walked close to him, he discovered that the child made no breathing sound at all. Sometimes, Yin Luka couldn't even feel his presence.
Nara Shikamaru, lying on the table all day long, seems to be sleeping, but in fact he closes his eyes and rests, paying attention to all the sounds around him. Every time Yinluka asks him to get up to answer a question, he can answer it as proof.
.Unfortunately, this student slept during the exam and was too lazy to write a single word after completing the multiple-choice questions.
Hinata Hinata has a strict upbringing from a large family and a shy personality. Whether in class or after class, she is almost always the quietest and most polite student in the class. She listens carefully most of the time, but occasionally she wanders.
Tianwai, blushing inexplicably, didn't know what he was thinking about.
There is also Uzumaki Naruto, the student who has changed the most in more than three years in the class. When he first started going to school, Naruto was still a bit fussy and mischievous, trying to attract others' attention. But maybe it was because he admired Uchiha Giyu.
If you have been at the same table for a long time, you will always imitate the other person unconsciously, so even if you don't listen in class, you will keep your head down and read a book by yourself, so your grades are not bad (although it is often recipes).
Finally, Yinluka's eyes moved to the empty seat between Naruto and Hinata.
It has been two days since school started, but Uchiha classmates are still traveling outside, and they don't know when they will come back.
Yin Luka missed Yiyong a little, not only because he was good enough, as quiet as an object, and could be cooled in the summer, but also because this child would share food with everyone in the class, so that they would not be so hungry that they could not concentrate in the last class.
attention.
Seeing that Ino had begun to throw pencils and erasers at Inuzuka Kiba, and the situation was about to get more intense, Yinluka took a deep breath.
[Looks like I’m about to come up with a trump card.]
"Tomorrow, you don't have to come to school."
As soon as these words came out, the boiling classroom quickly cooled down.
The children raised their heads and looked at Yin Luka one by one, as if they were chewing on what he had just said, which was not loud.
The next second, smiles bloomed on their faces, and cheers comparable to those of Anjuro in Purgatory rang out!
"Very good!"
"It's so cool to have a vacation right after school starts!"
"The new movie of Princess Fengyun is released, I just want to watch it tomorrow!"
"Would you like to have barbecue together tomorrow?"
…
As soon as there was no class, the children were already discussing their plans for tomorrow enthusiastically, while Naruto held his chin and looked out the window.
[It would be great if Giyuu could come back tomorrow. But the news from Anjuro to Sasuke seems to have taken some time...]
[I can’t figure it out, what on earth is he doing? 】
[If he doesn’t come back tomorrow, let’s go to training with Zuosuke. 】
Naruto sat up straight, suddenly had an idea, and his blue eyes suddenly lit up.
[Hinata’s grades in practical classes have never been good, so take her with you! 】
He turned his head, intending to explain his thoughts to the white-eyed girl, but he noticed that Hinata Hinata, who was sitting across from him, had a surprisingly ugly face, as if he had met his own ghost.
Naruto was confused, but before he had time to ask, he heard Yin Luka say with a bad smile: "You have a good idea, it's not a holiday."
"Then why don't you come to school?"
A civilian-born ninja asked disappointedly, "Are you talking about outdoor exercises or something like that? Is that an activity for higher grades?"
"It's an outdoor class, yes, but it's not a drill."
Yin Luka said: "The parents of some students may have told you about this, but there must be some students who don't know, so I will inform you again. After lunch tomorrow, all students will gather at the school gate.
, we are going to set off together to meet the joint mission of Kumo Ninja and Iwa Ninja."
"Click."
In the silence, a crisp sound caught Yin Luka's attention.
It turned out that Hinata Hinata lost her grip and the pencil fell off the table.
"Yes, I'm sorry..." Hinata quickly stood up and bowed, a little stutteringly apologizing, and then leaned down to pick it up.
Yin Luka suddenly remembered what happened six years ago, and his heart softened, and he added: "If Hinata-san feels unwell, you can rest at home tomorrow."
This was not included in the plan given by the Hokage. It was purely Yinluka who made his own decision out of sympathy.
"Thank you, Teacher Yinluka."
Hinata was obviously a little surprised, but she still accepted Yinluka's kindness and looked a little better than before.
Naruto didn't understand why, and the more he looked at it, the more strange he felt.
[Does Hinata hate participating in such activities, or does she simply hate foreign ninjas?]
However, his thoughts were soon interrupted by another student: "Teacher, what are the envoys of Iwa Ninja and Kumo Ninja coming to Konoha?"
"According to time, it is almost every three years when Konoha and Kumo Ninja renew the peace treaty. We went to Yun Ninja Village three years ago, and this time it is their turn to come to us. As for why Iwa Ninja sent
The envoy group is still unknown, but it must be for a similar reason."
When he mentioned the words "peace treaty", Yin Luka's smile was sincere.
"Although they arrived earlier this year, as long as the mission arrives, it means that the possibility of conflict between Konoha, Iwa Ninja, and Kumo Ninja Village in the next three years is very small. Without war, everyone can continue to live happily.
Go on until you graduate normally when you are twelve years old."
"what the hell?"
The student snorted dissatisfied, "Teacher, do you mean that if we go to war, we can graduate early? It would be better to go to war. Aren't our Konoha Ninja Village the strongest among all the Ninja Villages?"
After the student finished speaking, several echoes came from around him, a bit worried that the world would not be in chaos.
Shikamaru, who was lying on the table, turned around silently, but Inuzuka Kiba mocked loudly: "You really know how to talk nonsense. Even Akamaru can't deal with it. Are you going to be cannon fodder? Maybe even the enemy will
If you can’t see it, you will die!”
The student blushed and retorted: "There are so many jounin and chuunin in the village, won't they protect us newcomers?"
"What are you doing to protect a brainless guy like you?"
Nara Shikamaru seemed to be aroused by the opponent's stupidity. He propped up his body and squinted his dead fish eyes: "You guys who are looking forward to war must have never had anyone die in your family. I tell you, the third time I endure
During the World War, those of our clan who sacrificed the most were the genin and chuunin. If so many clan members hadn't died, do you think I would be the only one with the surname Nara in this generation?
"Once the war starts, Konoha will never face just one ninja village, but will fight on multiple fronts. Then the village will be short of manpower, and we students will have to go to the battlefield, and no one will care about protecting you.
"Which of the five ninja villages is the strongest... so what about the strongest? Have you ever thought about why the number of students in the school, even those from big families, are only in single digits? Less than half of what it was ten years ago? Then
It's because, in previous wars, too many young ninjas died before they were even old enough to have children! Many of them are younger than you."
Yinluka was a little surprised, because Shikamaru was not someone who would make long speeches like this. It seemed that these students' speeches really made him angry.
What he didn't know was that it was precisely because the Nara clan had so few young people that the clan had high hopes for Shikamaru, which had made him a little annoyed since he was a child.
But thanks to these words, those students who were ready to make a move also stopped and stopped talking.
"What Shikamaru-san said is not unreasonable. Peace is hard-won, and this is what Hokage-sama means. The Third Generation-sama attaches great importance to tomorrow's event to welcome the delegation, and everyone should take it seriously."
Yin Luka took the opportunity to smooth things over. After all, if Shikamaru were to continue talking, some sensitive topics would be involved.
"So, don't think that you can stay up late or whatever if you don't have to go to class tomorrow. You must have a good rest and be in the best spirit to welcome foreign guests. Don't let other people in the Ninja Village see our jokes! This welcome
The mission is about the honor of the village, you must remember what I said, understand?"
"yes--"
It can be heard from the voices that many people are seeing foreign ninjas for the first time, so they are very excited and looking forward to it.
After announcing the incident, the music after school started playing. Yin Luka was the first to leave the classroom. The other students left in groups in twos and threes. Only Hinata and Naruto stayed where they were and did not move.
Shikamaru was the last to leave.
He obviously knew a lot of things. He paused for a second when passing Hinata, but finally sighed, said hello to Naruto and left.
When Naruto and Hinata were the only two people left in the classroom, Naruto slid onto Giyuu's seat and asked with concern: "What happened? You don't look good, Hinata."
Being alone together in the last few days of summer vacation made the awkward atmosphere between the two a lot better. At least Hinata wouldn't faint because he was so close.
"It's nothing, I'm just feeling a little uncomfortable. Maybe it was at noon. I ate a little too much at noon."
Hinata's face showed a little color, "I won't go to tomorrow's event, so..."
"Are you really not going? Why is that? Could you predict in advance that you will feel uncomfortable tomorrow..."
Naruto wanted to ask, but suddenly felt an uncomfortable sight.
He suddenly turned his head and found a boy who looked very similar to Hinata standing outside the classroom door. He was staring at them seriously with a straight face. To be precise, the boy was staring at Hinata sternly.
Tian, even if he couldn't see the boy's face, Naruto had already noticed the other person's scrutinizing gesture.
"..." Noticing that Naruto stopped mid-sentence, Hinata, who was thinking about how to deal with it, also raised her head.
She followed Naruto's gaze and jumped up from her seat as if she had been electrocuted. Her voice became hoarse and short: "Ning, brother Ningci!"
【Is he Hyuga Neji? 】
Naruto blinked.
Because of Giyuu's relationship, Naruto has a close relationship with Anjuro, so he is not a stranger to the senior students who admire Anjuro. But this is the first time for Naruto to meet this number one who is one level older than him.
Hyuga Neji is one of the few people who has not been conquered by Anjuro's charm.
Hinata lowered her head nervously, her chin close to her collarbone, and her hands tangled together, waiting for Hinata Neji to come to her step by step.
Looking at Hinata's appearance, Naruto felt that the other party seemed to have bad intentions. He thought it was the kind of terrible family drama in Zuosuke's book. When he stood up and prepared to separate Hinata from Hinata, he was surprised to see Hinata.
Neji walked one meter away and stopped where he was.
Then, he bent down to Hinata and made a ninety-degree bow.
"Hinata-sama." His tone was respectful. If you didn't look at his expression, you couldn't find anything worth criticizing.
"Brother Neji, please don't do this..." Hinata Hinata looked like she was about to cry, not knowing how to respond.
【Why...he came to me at this time?】
"I am requesting you on behalf of the Hyuga branch."
Hinata Neji's waist was still bent, but his eyes were looking at Hinata's face. Naruto could tell that this was a very uncomfortable and awkward action.
"For your safety, I hope you will stay in the clan area tomorrow no matter what and don't go out and walk around at will."
Hearing this, Naruto felt that the other party was just expressing concern.
"After all, this time," Hyuga Neji immediately said, "no one in our branch family is willing to sacrifice his life needlessly for a quasi-clan leader like you who has no future."
This time Naruto understood. He immediately stood up, frowned and said loudly: "Who has no future?! Why do you say that to Hinata!"
Hinata's tears had rolled to the edge of her eyes, but they did not slide down for a long time. She just bit her lips and remained silent.
Hyuga Neji also ignored Naruto's intention and continued: "Hinata-sama, please agree to my request, otherwise I will not leave."
"You have a disgusted expression from the beginning to the end, and you speak with a gun and a stick. There is no intention of asking!"
Naruto crossed the table angrily and came to Hinata Neji's side, "Besides, we are obviously a family, why do you do such a hypocritical performance? You have also seen it, Hinata is obviously very uncomfortable, isn't it?
"
"Family?" Hinata Neji looked at Naruto with his eyes wide open, the cloth tied on his forehead was extremely conspicuous.
"How do we qualify to become Hinata-sama's family? If we don't do this, how can she agree to our request."
"I told you not to talk in a weird way!"
Naruto grabbed Hinata Neji by the collar, but the latter took a step back as if he had expected it. He grabbed Naruto's wrist with his left hand, held his elbow with his right hand and gently twisted it, forcing Naruto to
Immediately lie down in the opposite direction.
But immediately, Naruto slammed his foot on the ground before falling to the ground, and used the recoil to close the distance with Hinata Neji. Not only did he break free from the grasp, but he also knocked the opponent.
Seeing that the two of them were about to escalate the fight as soon as they stared at each other, Hinata Hinata got the courage from nowhere and shouted: "Please don't fight anymore!"
But as the two people looked at her in surprise at any time, she immediately returned to her quail nature and shrank her neck.
A hint of surprise flashed in Hyuga Neji's eyes, which was quickly replaced by disappointment.
He glanced at Naruto and resumed his bowing posture: "Hinata-sama, please promise me..."
"Don't promise him anything! Hinata!"
Naruto interrupted Neji with an angry look on his face, "Although I don't know what happened, you simply grasped Hinata's weakness and forced her here in a weird way! You don't care, and you don't care at all.
Respect her intention, on the contrary, you said and did this specifically because you knew that such behavior would hurt her and make her painful and uncomfortable!"
Hyuga Neji didn't respond, but was a little surprised at Naruto's sensitivity.
"I don't understand a big family like yours, nor do I understand the deep hatred between you. If you are full of resentment towards Hinata, just speak your mind openly. Why do you have to use this gesture, once?
To torture her once? Also, what does it mean to have no future? Don’t judge other people’s future casually!”
Hyuga Neji's attitude towards Hinata is very similar to the villagers' attitude towards him in the past——
It was clear that he had deep hatred, but he didn't explain the reason. This familiar feeling of déjà vu made Naruto very angry.
"You really know nothing about our clan."
Hyuga Neji straightened up, "But do I really need to say it bluntly that there is no future?
"Anyone with a discerning eye can see it. She looks so weak and can be bullied. Does she qualify to be the leader of the clan and let others sacrifice their lives to protect her? If nothing else, the results of the practical class are posted on the bulletin board. You can also see it
Got it? Her fists are soft, just like her character."
"Hinata is just shy and afraid of hurting others! Besides, people change! How do you know she won't get over this?"
"There's a difference between shyness and cowardice."
Hyuga Neji shook his head, "Shyness is just a habit, but cowardice is a destined nature. In the face of threats, people who can't even resist, can they really have any future?
"Besides," he turned to look at Hinata, "my request is what Hinata-sama wants, isn't it? When the Kumo ninja delegation arrives, you will definitely be worried and scared, but you don't dare to tell the head of the family clearly.
But by doing this, doesn’t it just give you a suitable excuse?”
Hinata's eyes flickered, and it seemed that she had indeed been told something that was on her mind.
She was afraid of Kumo Ninja; and telling her father that she was afraid of Kumo Ninja made her even more scared.
But if the separated family makes such a request, the father has no reason not to agree.
Her lips trembled, and when she was about to speak, she noticed that her hand, which was wet with cold sweat, was taken away, and a wave of warmth spread from Naruto's palm.
"Then you will be disappointed!"
Naruto raised Hinata's hand, "The more certain you are that Hinata will do this, the more she will have to prove that she is not the kind of person you imagined!"
"Naruto..." Hinata was really panicked. The development of the matter was completely beyond her expectation.
"Although I don't know what happened before, why is Hinata afraid of foreign ninjas? But Giyuu told me that the more people are afraid of something, the more they must be the first to overcome it!"
Naruto declared loudly: "So tomorrow, Hinata will go with me to see the Kumo ninja mission! I want them to know that they can't scare Hinata, and you can't scare them either! Even if they really want to hurt Hinata,
Tian, I will protect her just like Yiyong protected me! It doesn’t need that she is my clan leader or something, as long as she is my friend, I am willing to risk my life for her!"
In the empty classroom, Naruto's voice kept echoing.
Hyuga Neji pursed his lips, looked past him sternly, and looked at Hinata with a hint of questioning.
He didn't know if he wanted to see Hinata change.
"Is that really what you think? You want to be exposed in front of someone you're afraid of?"
Hinata took a deep breath and held Naruto's hand tightly. Although she did not raise her head, after a long silence, she still said: "Sorry, brother Neji, I, I want to give it a try..."
"In that case, I have nothing to say."
Hyuga Neji took a step back and bowed again, "If you insist on having your own way, then please make sure not to humiliate the clan's face in front of everyone tomorrow."
At least from a safety perspective, it would be safer for Hinata to show up in public.
Hinata didn't answer, but Naruto made a face at Hinata Neji: "Mind your own business first!"
"Your physical skills are very good and you have rich practical experience."
Hinata Neji nodded to Naruto, "But if you attack me again next time, I won't be merciful."
"Make it seem like you're the only one not using your full strength."
Naruto taunted, "Next time you let me hear your weirdness, I won't be merciful anymore! Say what you have to say, this is what a ninja should be like!"
"..."
Hyuga Neji left without saying anything more.
Hinata stayed there numbly, and then she realized what she had promised before.
"Naruto, I..."
Naruto saw her panic and said warmly: "It doesn't matter. If you don't want to say it, don't say it. It's not too late to tell me after the Kumo ninja delegation has left. Wait until you are no longer afraid of them and think about what happened in the past.
Come, I will only feel that my past thoughts are absurd and ridiculous..."
"Really, really?"
"Of course it's true. This is my personal experience."
Naruto said with assurance, "As long as you overcome the things you fear most, the things you fear the most, the things you fear the most, and the things you fear the third, they will gradually become insignificant."
"I understand." Hinata nodded convincingly, temporarily letting go of her fear of tomorrow, "Thank you, Naruto."
"If you want to thank me, thank you Yiyong."
Naruto scratched his head in embarrassment, "If he hadn't forced me to face those people and defend myself, I would still take the looks and sarcasm of those idle people seriously, and I would have a lot more troubles."
As he said that, he quickly glanced at the clock above the blackboard: "Ah, it's been so long, that guy Zuosuke, won't leave on his own!"
With that said, he picked up his schoolbag and walked out first, giving Hinata a little time to wipe away her tears.
After a while, the two came to the door of the next classroom and found Zuosuke still sitting in his seat, with his head lowered and wondering what he was thinking.
Naruto and Hinata looked at each other and walked in through the back door without deliberately restraining their voices.
But Zuosuke was so focused on the coins in front of him that he didn't hear anything.
Naruto came up behind Zuosuke and slapped the latter hard on the shoulder.
"ah!"
Scream, but twice.
Zuosuke screamed because a coin in front of him suddenly lost control and bounced out from in front of him, embedded in the back of the front seat.
Naruto screamed because there was a short burst of sharp pain in his fingertips. When he raised his hand, he saw that there were even faint burn marks on his skin.
"What are you doing?" they both complained in unison.
"It's my turn to ask you!"
Naruto blew a breath of cool air and stuffed the space between his index and middle fingers into his mouth, but the pain did not diminish at all.
"It's worse than the static electricity on doorknobs in winter. If it were someone else who touched you instead of me, you would faint from the pain right now!"
"Hey, does it hurt a lot?" Zuosuke's eyes lit up.
"You actually gloat about your misfortune!" Naruto looked at him dissatisfied.
"No, I'm just curious about the power of ninjutsu."
Zuosuke took the coin off the back of the front seat with a look of pride on his face.
[In just a few days, I have made such progress. I really have a good talent in thunder escape! It may be better than Yiyong's water escape...]
"Ninjutsu?" Naruto no longer paid attention to the injured finger, but asked with curiosity, "What kind of jutsu? Did your brother teach you?"
"It's my mother."
Sasuke sat down so Hinata and Naruto could get closer to him, "Look."
Assistant Zuo placed six 10-tael coins as wide as his thumb in a circle, and then placed his index finger vertically in the middle of all the coins.
"What are you looking at?" Naruto rolled his eyes, "I never spend money recklessly, and my savings are much larger than yours."
As soon as he finished speaking, Naruto saw six coins being pushed out slowly by invisible force, like unfolding petals, at an extremely even speed.
"It's moving!"
"It's not over yet."
Zuosuke gave him a calm look.
The six coins continued to push outward, forming a large circle with a radius of ten centimeters.
Then Zuozhu made a seal with his left hand, and the six coins slowly shrank, and finally returned to their original positions.
"Awesome!" Zuosuke said with a bright face, waiting for praise.
"It's amazing," Naruto nodded, "You must be doing magic."
【"Would you like to learn how to light candles?"】
"Don't speak too righteously."
Zuosuke's face fell, "You don't understand anything at first glance."
"This, the ability to control metal...should be magnetic escape, right?"
Hinata on the side suddenly said, "Could it be said, Uchiha-san, that you have developed another blood inheritance limit?"
"Hey, it can't be right?"
Naruto doesn't know much about these, but he knows that the blood successor limits are very impressive.
"It looks similar, right?"
Zuosuke felt that his talent was appreciated and was extremely happy. It was the first time in more than ten days that Hinata Hinata was so pleasing to the eye.
"But this is not magnetic escape, but an application of thunder attribute chakra."
"Thunder Release?" Hinata covered her mouth in surprise.
"Yes. Look, this is an ordinary coin."
To give an example, Assistant Zuo took out an old coin with a different material from his pencil case and placed it in the middle of six 10-tael coins. There was no reaction.
"But, when I injected him with thunder attribute chakra..."
As soon as Zuosuke's fingertips touched the coin, the coin immediately emitted an invisible force field and pushed out the six surrounding coins.
"My mother said that there are two types of magnetic ninjas. One is like the Third Kazekage, who combines the changes in the properties of wind and earth to control iron sand, a substance containing specific metals. But generally speaking, a magnetic ninja
You can only control one type of metal, so two types are very limiting."
Zuosuke paused, "There is another type, the Magneto Ninja from the Land of Thunder, which can impart strong magnetism to any object through contact, but essentially it can only attract specific metals.
"But what I'm doing now only requires a single qualitative change of thunder-attribute chakra. When I'm skilled enough, even if I inject thunder-attribute chakra into different metals, I can control them to attack or defend at the same time, even hundreds of meters apart.
Attack others with a thousand-meter remote control shuriken. Isn't it powerful?"
"Sounds very convenient." Naruto nodded, with a hint of envy in his tone, "You only said that your father and brother were jounin before, but you didn't expect your mother to be so powerful."
"Actually, it's quite a coincidence."
Zuosuke said: "In recent years, she has been leading her staff to do special effects for the movie Princess of Wind and Cloud. It is said that the screenwriter of the movie is very imaginative and gave my mother some inspiration when designing the weird and unreasonable ninjutsu in the movie.
, she began to use electromagnetic power to develop thunder escape ninjutsu. However, she has never fought with this kind of jutsu..."
"I haven't seen the movie." Naruto was a little depressed, "The old man Hokage won't let me leave the village, saying it's very dangerous outside."
"Then next time my family goes to the Fire City together, I will take you with me."
"Really?" Naruto paused.
"If the third generation agrees, it shouldn't be a big problem!"
"By the way, speaking of this... from now on, let's take Hinata with us when we train!"
"Eh?!" This time it was Hinata's turn to be surprised.
"Why? Her grades in practical classes are average." Zuosuke said directly.
"I met a nasty guy who said Hinata was cowardly and timid!"
Naruto grinned and said, "When Hinata gets stronger and beats him up, we'll see if he still dares to be so evil!"
Sasuke was a little xenophobic at first, but when he thought of Anjuro's consistent style and open-mindedness...
"Anyway, the place where Anjuro lives is so big, it won't be too crowded if she's here! But she has to be counted as one of the cleaners!"
"Thank you, thank you." Hinata clenched her fists, "I will definitely work hard!"
【Don't let Naruto down!】
This was probably how Naruto felt when he first met Giyu.
"By the way, when will you be able to practice something famous?"
When Zuosuke packed his schoolbag and was about to leave, Naruto asked.
"This needs to be done step by step, starting with the attraction and repulsion of electromagnetic force."
As he said that, he lifted his feet and showed Naruto the soles of his shoes. What was stuck there was the key to his door.
"What's the use of this?"
So Zuosuke explained it to Naruto again, but it was unclear whether he understood or not.
Outside the school, Uchiha Itachi waited around, but Zuosuke didn't come out yet.
"Did you climb over the wall and leave?"
Just as he was about to enter the school to find out what was going on, there was a sound of flapping wings coming from behind. When he turned around, he saw that it was Uchiha Shisui's Ninja Crow.
"Is Shisui back?"
A happy expression flashed across Itachi's face, and he waved to the crow to come over. He took a piece of paper from its feet and read it. His expression gradually returned to calm, and there was even some doubts in it.
However, the ninja is Shisui's ninja, and the note is also Shisui's handwriting.
[When you come back, you don’t report the results of the mission first, but you want to meet with me first. What happened? 】
"Lead the way." Itachi was a little worried, leaving a shadow clone to continue waiting, but the main body followed the ninja crow and chased after him.
But for some reason, he always felt that the ninja crow was leading the way quite easily today, and it would stop and wait for him from time to time. It was surprisingly spiritual, as if there was a human soul residing in its body.
About ten minutes later, just as Zuosuke was about to walk out of the school gate and met Itachi's clone, the latter turned into a cloud of smoke and suddenly disappeared.
At the same time, on the other side of the world.
Due to the time difference, it was already dark in the Kingdom of Water. Giyu removed the dark red chakra lingering on his left arm and leg and opened his eyes.
"The injury doesn't affect his movements much anymore."
He rubbed his abdomen somewhat unskillfully, allowing the Three-Tails to take back all the chakra lent to him.
