Flowing Water of Konoha

The next day, early in the morning.

Liu Shui wore a chuunin uniform belonging to Konoha ninjas and put on a Konoha forehead protector... After waving goodbye to his mother, he walked out of Kamikawa's house...

Naruto looked at himself standing in front of the mirror in the bathroom, wearing a Chuunin uniform... and showed a bright smile...

Haruno Sakura, wearing a Chuunin uniform, hugged her parents one by one and waved away...

Sasuke stood in front of the full-length mirror, looking at himself in the mirror wearing a chuunin suit, his three magatama sharingan slowly rotating...

In front of the Hokage Tower, what caught your eye was the conspicuous white hair.

Kamikawa Ryusei: "Good morning! Kakashi-senpai."

Kakashi: "Hey! Liu Shui, I heard that you like Gai's female disciple?"

Kakashi stared with a pair of dead fish eyes, but he was very gossipy.

Kamikawa Ryusei: "Yeah! I feel very good about Tenten... Kakashi-senpai was pretending to be drunk yesterday!"

Liu Shui subconsciously expressed his feelings for Tiantian, and immediately changed the subject after realizing it.

Hatake Kakashi: "It seems I didn't lie to you! There's nothing wrong with telling you. Yesterday was an ambush for "Gen".

Unfortunately, Danzo Shimura was too cautious. "

Although he said so, Kakashi did not show any feeling of loss.

Kamikawa Ryusei: "This also means that Shimura Danzo's men have already laid an ambush on the road."

Kakashi Hatake: "Yes, we have to be careful of other ninjas in the Shadow Village."

Kakashi's brows couldn't help but frown. Putting other ninjas from the Ninja Village into the Land of Fire was an easy task for Danzo Shimura, who had grasped the "root" department.

Kamikawa Ryusei: "Kakashi-senpai, how long will it take for us to reach the Fire Capital?"

Liu Shui suddenly thought that he didn't know how long it would take to reach the Fire Capital at the speed of a ninja.

Kakashi Hatake: "It takes six hours to travel with all our strength, but there is no way we can lift it with all our strength."

Kakashi heard the meaning of Liu Shui's words. He was asking how long the dangerous time would be.

Kamikawa Liusui: "In this case, the best time to ambush is in the second half of the journey."

In the second half of the ambush, as long as the Hokage and his team go all out, the success rate of their ambush will be greatly improved.

Kakashi Hatake: "Yes, but I think there is a high chance of being attacked in the first half."

Kamikawa Liusui: "It's really troublesome!"

Hatake Kakashi: "You will get used to it if you experience more missions in the future."

Ninja is a profession that is on the edge of death...

In the next half hour, the other three members of Kakashi's class also arrived one by one.

Morning time, 07:30.

Liu Shui and the others walked into the Hokage Tower. This time, the two ANBU ninja seniors guarding the door did not intercept Liu Shui and the others...

The Hokage Tower was still busy today, and the arrival of the five Liu Shui people did not attract many people's attention.

In the Hokage's office, five people stood upright in the middle of the office.

The Fifth Hokage, Tsunade, sat on the Hokage's chair and looked at the five people with a serious face.

Tsunade: "I can give you a chance to give up the mission. This mission is very dangerous!"

Uzumaki Naruto: "Tsunade... Master Hokage, we have made all preparations... We will not back down from this mission. I believe that Sakura and Sasuke will not give up on this mission."

Naruto directly stood up and expressed the thoughts of the three of them. During the past few days of training, they all had the opportunity to ask Kakashi-sensei to give up their time to participate in the mission...

Uchiha Sasuke: "I won't back down."

Sasuke secretly had a deep hatred. If he backed down from this mission, what chance would he have to kill that man!

Haruno Sakura: "I won't back down either."

Haruno Sakura had already made up her mind after hugging her parents. If she gave up the mission this time, the gap between her and Sasuke would become wider and wider.

Kakashi and Liu Shui didn't say anything, silence was the best choice.

Tsunade: "Okay, let's go."

Tsunade sat up from the Hokage's chair, picked up the Hokage hat placed on the desk and put it on her head.

"Follow your orders! Hokage-sama!"

The five people in Liushui knelt on one knee and saluted the Hokage...

It was very lively outside the Hokage Building. The heads of several major families in Konoha and the Hokage assistants were waiting for Tsunade, the fifth generation Hokage.

"Step...step...step..."

A sound of footsteps getting closer and closer came from the Hokage Tower... The first thing that caught my eye was Tsunade, the fifth generation Hokage, wearing a Hokage robe and a Hokage hat...

Followed by Konoha Jounin Hatake Kakashi, Chunin Kamikawa Ryuu, Genin Uzumaki Naruto, Genin Uchiha Sasuke, and Genin Haruno Sakura.

Koharu went to bed: "Tsunade, why don't you bring more Jonin? Among these people, Kakashi-sensei is the only one who can play a role."

After turning to bed, Koharu walked up to Tsunade and asked in a low voice.

Tsunade: "Assistant, I am confident in doing this, and I am the Hokage now!"

When Koharu went to bed, her expression suddenly became a little angry. Was she trying to show me the majesty of Hokage?

Tsunade walked past Koharu who was sleeping in the dormitory, and the others automatically made way for her to walk, and Liu Shui and others naturally followed behind.

When they reached the gate of Konoha, Tsunade turned and looked at the people following behind her.

Tsunade: "Everyone, thank you for coming to see me off. During my absence, Konoha will be managed by Jiraiya and the two Hokages."

No one showed any surprised expressions, the fifth generation Hokage's arrangement was not unexpected.

Jiraiya: "Hokage-sama, don't worry, Konoha will be left to me and the two Hokages to assist. There won't be any problems in Konoha before you come back."

Tsunade: (-`ェ?0?7-anger)!

"Hmph, don't let me down! Let's go, Liu Shui!"

Tsunade was a little angry. Did Jiraiya mean that there would be problems in Konoha after he came back?

Jiraiya: "Lord Koharu, did I say something wrong?"

Jiraiya looked at Tsunade and the six people who were gradually moving away, and asked the only woman next to him, Koharu, who was sleeping.

Koharu went to bed: "Huh! How do I know what Hokage-sama is thinking? I'm going back first."

After Xiaochun finished speaking, he turned around and left.

Jiraiya: (~_~;)

"Women are really hard to understand! Especially older women."

As Xiaochun left, the crowd quickly dispersed.

"Hanako, what's going on today with so many big shots in the village appearing on the street?"

A civilian woman in her 60s and 30s asked another civilian woman in her [-]s.

"Grandma Haruko, don't you know? This is the Fifth Hokage going to the City of Fire to find the Daimyo to verify his identity."

Hanako looked at Grandma Haruko with some confusion. Such things were stories she told herself before.

"Oh! Oh! Look at my brain, I can't remember clearly when I'm a little older."

Grandma Haruko patted her head with an annoyed look on her face, as if this could help her retrieve some memories.

But when Hanako couldn't see her, a gleam appeared in Haruko's eyes...
