Chapter 98

"Ha ha ha ha--"

He told another joke that he thought was funny. Jiraiya laughed, but Hinata had no expression on his face.

"A lustful fairy?"

"Hinata, I finally found you!"

Hinata turned her head and asked curiously: "Naruto, what's the matter?"

Naruto complained: "Hinata, do you know how many restaurants I went to before I found you? I didn't expect you to come to such a high-end place to eat!"

Hinata glanced at Kiraiya and hummed, "It's a treat from the lecherous immortal!"

"What do you want from me?"

Naruto took a breath and said breathlessly: "That's right, starting from tomorrow, our seventh team will be performing missions together!"

"Eh!"

Hinata glanced at Jiraiya again, and saw that there was nothing unusual on Jiraiya's face, and she suddenly felt a little puzzled.

Aren't you two going on a trip?

"Hinata?"

Naruto yelled, "What are you thinking about?"

Hinata came to her senses, nodded and said, "Okay! I understand!"

Naruto said: "Then I will release the shadow clone and let my true body come over!"

Jiraiya was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said loudly: "Hey - why did you ask your body to come here?"

'boom--'

Naruto in front of him turned into a ball of smoke and disappeared.

After a while, another mouth appeared on the dinner table...

Chapter 146 Escorting the red panda back to the ‘Sha Hidden Village’ Zoo

On a small bridge in Konoha, Hinata and Naruto looked at each other speechlessly.

Class 7 is no longer complete.

Although Sasuke usually likes to act cool, Naruto and Hinata always have a way to make Sasuke's cold persona collapse.

In the past, Hinata always felt a little upset when Naruto and Sasuke were noisy, but now she feels a little nostalgic.

People! You never learn to appreciate something when you have it.

Hinata sat on the bridge, staring at the flowing river below in a daze.

Some people compare time to a long river, because time is like a river, always flowing, and it seems that there is never any scenery that can make the long river of time stop.

But the river will have its tributaries, and people will have their joys and sorrows.

But no matter how many tributaries a river may branch into, these tributaries will eventually meet in the sea.

"So...Class 7 will reunite after all!"

Hinata said for sure!

"Well said!"

Kakashi appeared using the teleportation technique, with a smile in his only exposed right eye, and waved: "Good morning! Naruto, Hinata!"

Hinata looked at Kakashi in surprise and said strangely: "Kakashi-sensei, you are not late today. This is not in line with your style!"

Kakashi scratched his head and said in a lazy tone: "Well! I can't help it, I have a very important task to do today!"

Hinata looked at Kakashi with contempt and snorted: "Kakashi-sensei really bullies the weak and fears the strong!"

"There's nothing we can do!"

Kakashi showed a serious expression and said calmly: "We need to gather at the Hokage's office immediately. If we are late, we will definitely be scolded!"

Speaking of being scolded... Naruto suddenly glanced at Hinata and accused: "Hinata! You were so shameless yesterday that you ran away alone. Mother-in-law Tsunade scolded us for a whole hour yesterday! "

Hinata complained: "I guess onee-chan just wants to use the opportunity of swearing to escape from the Hokage's job!"

You have suffered!

Kakashi greeted: "Okay, stop talking nonsense and let's go!"

Hokage's office.

As soon as she entered the door, Hinata felt the solemn atmosphere in the office.

In addition to Tsunade and Shizune, Konoha's two Hokage advisors were there, and four people from Kaiban also arrived.

Besides, aren't those four people standing in the corner of the office Gaara, Kankuro, Temari and Maki?

Hinata asked very strangely: "Why are you guys here?"

Ma Ji looked embarrassed, and Kankuro complained: "Didn't you capture us?"

Tsunade glanced at the whole audience and said with great momentum: "Okay! If you want to reminisce about the past, you will have many opportunities along the way!"

Kankuro: What old relationship do we have with that shady girl?

Tsunade said solemnly: "Now that everyone is here, the next task of escorting the Sunagakure Village group... will be jointly carried out by Kakashi Ban and Kai Ban."

Naruto was stunned: "Escort?"

Tsunade explained: "It is to escort the Sunagakure Village and the others back to the Kingdom of Wind."

"We have already negotiated with Sunagakure Village. You only need to send the four of them to the border of the Kingdom of Wind. Sunagakure Village will naturally send people to help them."

Hinata was silent for a while, then suddenly raised her head and asked, "Sister-in-law, what is the level of this mission?"

Tsunade looked at Hinata with a dark face, and it took a long time to hold back a sentence: "It's an A-level mission!"

When Hinata heard this, she immediately knew something in her heart.

Hinata didn't ask this question just for the mission reward.

B-level missions mean there will be ninja battles.

As for the A-level mission, it means that the opponent sends not only a jonin, but more likely a ninja team led by the jounin.

In other words, this escort mission is not safe.

Who in the ninja world would disrupt the peace talks between Konoha and Sagakure?

Obviously, the three forces of Iwagakure Village, Kumogakure Village, and Danzo are possible.

The escort route and time in Konoha are top secret, and it is impossible for Iwagakure and Kumogakure to know.

Then the only person who could possibly disrupt the peace talks between the two villages could only be Danzo Shimura, the leader of the Root of Konoha.

As for the reason, it is actually very simple.

Danzo has always hoped that Konoha could unify the ninja world.

And this time, the biggest loss of Konoha's collapse plan is definitely not Konoha, but Sand Village and Sound Village.

Not to mention the cannon fodder of Sound Village, it is estimated that more than half of the ninjas sent by Sand Village to attack Konoha will be lost.

On the way Hinata captured Gaara and returned to the village, countless Sand Ninjas wanted to take Gaara back, but they all died in the hands of Konoha Genin headed by Hinata.

At that time, Hinata was shouting and pulling hatred all the way, and killed at least thirty Sand Ninjas!

Not to mention the Sand Ninjas who died at the hands of other Konoha ninjas.

Konoha now has Tsunade to succeed the fifth Hokage, and Jiraiya has also returned to the village.

But what about Sand Village?

The Sand Village can't even choose a Kazekage now. There is not even one person in the whole village who is capable of being the Kazekage.

In addition, the One-Tail Jinchuriki of the Sand Village has also fallen into the hands of Konoha.

As long as Gaara is killed, the strength of the Sand Village will be greatly damaged.

Without the Kage and the Tailed Beast, how can the Sand Village protect the village?

Although most of the land of the Wind Country is desert, as long as the Sand Village is wiped out, there will be one less enemy around Konoha.

Danzo must think so.

Tsunade didn't give everyone a chance to continue asking questions, and said lightly: "Akai, you take the people of the Sand Village to the gate of Konoha first, and Kakashi will stay for a while."

"Yes!"

"People from the Sand Village, please come this way!"

After Akai and others left, Tsunade turned to look at Mito Kado En and Utatane Koharu, and said coldly: "You two get out too!"

"I..."

Utatane Koharu looked unhappy, but was dragged out by Mito Kado En.

Tsunade turned her gaze to Hinata and said in a serious tone: "Hinata, Jiraiya has already told me about your situation!"

"This mission is extremely important. Konoha can no longer withstand war, and the ninja world cannot have another war."

"The Sand Village has already investigated clearly. Everything is caused by Orochimaru. The Sand Village is also willing to form an alliance with Konoha again."

"So when necessary..."

At this point, Tsunade turned her gaze to Naruto, and the meaning was self-evident.

If the enemy is too strong, then borrow the power of the Nine-Tails.

Hinata nodded, patted her chest and assured: "Big sister, don't worry, I'll be with you, everyone will be fine!"

Tsunade nodded slightly, and then told Kakashi: "Then everything is up to you, Kakashi!"

Kakashi nodded

Chuckling, Tsunade said leisurely: "I hope you guys can still come back in time to attend my succession ceremony to the Hokage."

No wonder Jiraiya was unwilling to take Naruto away from the village now, it turned out that he had not yet attended Tsunade's succession ceremony to the Hokage.

What an infatuated man!

Hinata smiled and said, "Don't worry! We will definitely come back in time! If we can't come back... Big sister, you can postpone the ceremony for a few more days!"

"By the way! Big sister, I have come up with a new name for you!"

"How do you think of the title of 'the strongest queen who dominates the ninja world, is invincible and brave, and is feared by the world'?"

...

"Get out of here!"

Chapter 147 The story between Danzo and Tsunade

After Hinata and the other two left, Shizune called out with some concern: "Tsunade-sama!"

Tsunade's face was not very good either, and she couldn't help but recall the Konoha high-level meeting two days ago.

The negotiations between Konoha and Sand Village will not be delayed because there is no 'shadow'.

Early before Tsunade returned to the village, the Konoha high-level and Sand Village high-level had already started to contact, and the two sides had roughly reached the intention of re-alliance.

Konoha and Sand Village, who had just experienced a war and had not yet recovered, must form an alliance again to maintain the current balance in the ninja world.

Otherwise, the Iwagakure and Kumogakure villages, which are watching from the sidelines, will certainly take the opportunity to seize the interests of Konoha and Sand Village.

The reason why the negotiations have been delayed until now is that Konoha has already selected the fifth generation Hokage, and the alliance agreement must be signed by the Hokage himself to take effect.

As for the Sand Village, since there is no suitable candidate to succeed the Kazekage for the time being, as long as all the senior leaders reach an agreement, the alliance agreement can be signed.

Konoha’s two Hokage advisors actually support the alliance.

But at the meeting two days ago, Danzo suddenly expressed a different opinion.

Oppose the alliance!
