Konoha: Doing good deeds can make you stronger

Chapter 252 The Strange Ferret

After a short greeting with Itachi, Marutani Koko shared with him the various events he encountered during his practice journey, including of course the encounter with the mysterious masked man last night.

Itachi is very smart, telling him can also help him figure out the identity and purpose of the mysterious masked man as soon as possible.

"You mean? The mysterious masked man?"

Everything was normal at first, but Itachi's expression suddenly changed a little when Marutani Ko mentioned the mysterious masked man, and Marutani Ko noticed this slight abnormality immediately.

"What? Do you know that person, Itachi?"

Marutani looked at each other expectantly.

Itachi bowed his head and was silent for a while, but in the end he still didn't answer Marutani Kou's question directly, but put aside the topic again bluntly.

"You just said that he is planning a big plan now?"

"Yes," although Itachi's behavior was very strange, obviously concealing something, but out of trust in the other party, Marutani Kou did not choose to continue asking this time, "From what he said, it can be judged that the plan's One of the purposes is to show his so-called powerful strength in front of me, so there is a high probability that his target is Konoha."

"really."

Itachi nodded, and Marutani Koko did not make a mistake in his analysis.

He did not tell Marutani Kou that during this period of time, he did see a mysterious man wearing a mask, and the shape of the mask was almost exactly the same as what Marutani Kou described. It's the same person who went to Marutani Kou late at night.

And the other party did mention a plan at the time, but itachi knew more about this plan than Marutani Kou.

Just, the content of this plan.

"Anyway, everyone should be more careful during this time."

Marutani Koko looked at the expressionless Itachi, but became suspicious in his heart.

After learning such important information, Itachi's behavior was so calm that he seemed suspicious instead.

"Sailing."

"Ok?"

"Actually, no, it's fine."

Itachi hesitated for a long time, but in the end he still didn't tell Marutani Kou the information he heard from the mysterious masked man.

He swallowed, and silently clenched his fists.

Some things, let the Uchiha clan solve it by themselves.

Although I chatted with Itachi a lot, but at this time there are still several hours before the children leave school, Marutani Koji then took time to visit his teacher Nara Shikahisa and several seniors in the village who have a good relationship, such as Talk about the brothers of the Hinata family and Mikey and the others.

Although Marutani Koko spent the last month before returning to Konoha seeing a doctor in the small town, his previous practice was no joke, and his strength has also improved significantly after being honed, and his temperament aspect has changed significantly.

"It seems that you have gained a lot this time."

Nara Shikahisa looked at Marutani Kou, who had grown a lot taller this year, with a gratified expression. For him, Marutani Kouji was really like his own child, and he watched him grow up.

"Although I already knew that you are a genius, such a terrifying speed of progress far exceeded my expectations."

"Hey." After being praised by Nara Shikahisa, Marutani Kou also showed a reserved smile, "The main thing is that the teacher taught well."

"No, I didn't teach you anything."

Apart from Nara Shikahisa, Marutani Kou has also been highly praised by other seniors.

I visited several elders, and at noon, Marutani Kou rushed back to Hongdou’s house for a meal, chatted about interesting things on the journey, and met many acquaintances in the village in the afternoon, and explained to them the truth that I had returned .

Finally, after such an operation, it was afternoon, and it was time for the children to leave school.

"It's time, I'm going to pick up Naruto and Xianglin."

Marutani stood up from his seat, and Kakashi, who was sitting opposite him, waved his hands expressionlessly.

"go Go."

Kakashi was like this, Marutani Kou had no intention of looking for each other today, but the two suddenly ran into each other on the street, and at Marutani Kou's invitation, the two found a place to sit and chat.

Before Marutani Kou left, a question suddenly popped into his mind.

"By the way, how old is Senior Kakashi, why don't you consider finding someone."

".You're the one who has a lot to do."

Apart from the forehead guard, Kakashi's face was covered with a mask, and his face could not be seen clearly at all, but Marutani Ko guessed that the other party's expression should not be very good now.

When it was time to leave school, several parents were already waiting at the gate of the ninja school. Although all the ninjas trained here were powerful ninjas in the future village, they were still children at this time, and they were still very young, so some parents It is understandable to worry about letting the child go back alone.

However, the most mundane thing about being picked up and dropped off at school seems a bit extravagant for Naruto and Kaorin.

Compared with other ninjas, Hongdou does not have a lot of tasks, but she is still the village's top ninja after all, and she can't do nothing all day long like Marutani Kou, so although she can find time to take care of the two, she usually needs to spend A lot of time is spent on their own tasks, so under normal circumstances, both children go home alone.

But fortunately, the journey of the two of them will not be lonely. In addition to each other, their little friends will occasionally accompany them back home. In such a huge circle of friends, there will always be a few people who have no one to pick them up every day. In such a situation Now, it seems that there is no such aggrieved no one to pick up.

But today is different.

"goodbye teacher!"

When it was time to end the get out of class, the students in the classroom bid farewell to Iruka one by one, and walked out of the classroom one after another, Naruto and Kaorin were no exception.

Sasuke was also with them today, and Sakura and Ino, who had always had "illegal thoughts" about Sasuke, also found an excuse to sneak into the team.

After packing up their school supplies, they carried their schoolbags and walked slowly towards the gate. At this moment, Sasuke, who had always disdain to speak in front of his companions, suddenly took the initiative to speak.

"I heard a voice at school today."

"What's that voice? Sasuke-kun!"

As soon as Sasuke spoke, Sakura and Ino immediately responded.

But Sasuke didn't pay attention to the meaning of the two this time, and stared straight at Naruto.

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be the sound of my brother's whistle."

Sasuke had heard that voice.

The whistle that Itachi gave Marutani Kou is not an ordinary whistle, but a product after his careful transformation, which combines ninjutsu and psychic arts. Itachi has been busy for a long time and only made a few finished products, which are very precious. But he still took out two of them and gave them to his close friend Marutani Kou and his younger brother Sasuke respectively, and Sasuke had also blown it when he tried it before, so he remembered the unique sound made by that whistle.

"What do you mean? I don't understand."

The "simple" Naruto didn't react to Sasuke's meaning, but looked at his partner who had been staring at him stupidly, while Kaorin's brain moved quickly, and combined with what Sasuke said before to appease Naruto Immediately thought of something.

"Sasuke, what do you mean, Brother Marutani Koko is back?"

"what!"

Xiang Lin's words immediately frightened Naruto, he jumped up on the spot, his eyes widened in excitement.

"The teacher is back? Really! Is this real?! Sasuke! Is this real?!"
