Sunny and cheerful Konoha Genin

"This guy's ninjutsu is very weird."

While chatting, Kimimaro shared some of Kakuzu's abilities and information with Yahiko and the other two.

Of course, he never relaxed his control over Kakuzu from beginning to end, which made Kakuzu, who was originally thinking of finding a chance to escape, very annoyed.

I didn't expect that I would fail on such a group of kids!

"A heart transplant?"

Yahiko's frown deepened.

He looked at Kakuzu again with an expression of disgust.

"Or else just get rid of him. It's really harmful to keep such people in the world."

"You're actually trying to take the hearts of civilians!"

"It's unfair, it's unfair, I only said that to threaten him!"

Kakuzu yelled.

"A civilian's heart is useless to me, only a ninja's heart is useful!"

"All of these hearts were obtained from the targets of bounty orders. I have never used the hearts of civilians!"

"Although this may not be convincing, I'm really not a bad person, I'm just a tool!"

"What do you mean, Nagato, Konan?"

Yahiko turned around and asked.

"I think we should keep him for now."

Konan's words made Kakuzu nod his head immediately: "Yes, I am very useful! I have a lot of money, as long as you are willing to let me go, I can give it to you!"

A man can bend and stretch.

Ever since defecting from Takigakure Village, Kakuzu has completely abandoned all of his so-called ninja's self-esteem. All he wants now is to survive.

As for revenge, he didn't even dare to think about it anymore.

I just want to stay away from these guys.

Just like when he failed in the assassination attempt on the First Hokage, he fled in disgrace.

The Takigakure Village made him take the blame and drove him away, so he could only steal the secret technique in anger, and then left after practicing it!

I never thought of killing people.

In essence, Kakuzu is not a particularly tough type.

"I also think it's okay to stay. After all, Scorpion said so."

After Nagato expressed his opinion, he asked Kimimaro, "Do you want to keep him?"

"I won't keep it. You can do whatever you want with it."

"Then let's decide."

Yahiko sighed slightly, then looked down at Kakuzu who was tied up and lying on the ground.

"Would you like to join the Akatsuki organization?"

"what?"

The corner man, who was still racking his brains to figure out how to stay alive, was stunned.

Kimimaro was also slightly stunned.

Suddenly, a gentle breeze blew across the rolling hills, like a pair of soft hands gently caressing the earth.

The breeze blew, lifting the broken grass leaves from the ground, making them dance in the air like a cheerful dance. Then the broken grass leaves danced to the rhythm of the wind, gradually flying away like light butterflies, taking away the originally solemn atmosphere.

The breeze blew across the fields and forests, and eventually reached the Leaf Village.

At this time, the entrance of Konoha Village was crowded with people and it was very lively.

The villagers flocked to the village entrance, eagerly waiting for the returning heroes, with anticipation and joy flashing in their eyes. The most excited among them were undoubtedly the children.

In order to promote and boost morale, Konoha promoted the ninjas who performed outstandingly in the war.

Including Konoha White Fang and Kato Dan who were also present, they were now standing in the welcoming team led by the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen.

In addition to them, there were also the top leaders of Konoha Village, all standing behind Sarutobi Hiruzen, waiting quietly.

Sarutobi Hiruzen had a faint smile on his face. He was holding a pipe in his hand and taking a puff from time to time. The smoke was curling around him, and he looked relaxed and calm.

But this was just to hide his tiredness. After learning that Orochimaru would lead the team back today, he was so excited that he didn't sleep for half the night, so he took a few sips to refresh himself.

He was in high spirits, and the Konoha high-ranking officials beside him were also in high spirits.

But no one will say anything now, everyone is waiting, waiting for the return of that team.

Among the crowds on both sides, all the Konoha families were present, and the Uchiha Guard was also maintaining order.

Because the war ended victoriously, everyone had a happy look on their face.

And all this is thanks to the upcoming team!

Amid people's anticipation and cheers, figures finally appeared on the road in the distance.

"Here they come! They're coming!"

I don't know who shouted this sentence first, but it spread throughout the street in an instant.

Everyone's eyes were focused in that direction, filled with excitement and anticipation.

On the road in the distance, a neat team gradually appeared.

They walked steadily, had serious expressions, and exuded an awe-inspiring aura.

This team is the ninjas who have just ended the war and are about to return to Konoha Village.

Walking in the front was the main force led by Orochimaru, and their appearance caused cheers.

"It's Orochimaru!"

"I heard that he won the battle as the commander-in-chief!"

"Orochimaru! Orochimaru!"

The cheers from the crowd rose and fell, as if to tear the entire sky apart.

As the leader of this battle, Orochimaru undoubtedly became the focus of everyone's attention.

His presence made people feel at ease and proud, and also inspired more enthusiasm.

As the team approached, the cheers grew louder.

Everyone welcomed the return of these heroes in their own way.

Whether waving flags or shouting slogans, it is a recognition and respect for their contributions.

The cheers were deafening, one after another, like a mountain wind and a tsunami, giving the soldiers who had just returned a crazy baptism.

Orochimaru felt a little uncomfortable, and then he heard a voice coming from the side.

"Orochimaru, stand up straight and don't lose face."

"That's right, stay alert. Aren't you used to being on the battlefield?"

"We have come through mountains of swords and seas of fire, what does this scene mean to us?"

Utane Koharu and Mito Kado En on the side looked straight ahead and talked to each other.

Orochimaru had a strange expression on his face when he heard this.

I muttered to myself: It sounds like you two old guys have also gone to the battlefield.

On the other side, Toru Ito stood low-key in the middle of the team, looking inconspicuous, just like an ordinary combatant.

However, someone still noticed him at first sight.

For example, Yuina, when she looked at Toru Ito who had hidden himself well in the queue, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.

This guy……

She knew Ito Toru very well. The more he acted like this, the more it showed that this guy had caused a big trouble in the battle!

If you were unknown, there would be no need to hide yourself like this!

However, because Yukina was currently in the queue of the Uchiha Guard, she was unable to go up to greet him. She could only watch Ito Toru slip by with empty eyes, while waving to Red Bean.

Next to her stood a child who was equally excited.

"Wow, our Konoha Village is so amazing! Sister Yukina!"

The child clenched his fists, his face flushed with excitement, and his eyes sparkled with excitement.

Yukina reached out her hand, held down the restless man and said, "Shisui, calm down a bit."

Yuina felt a little helpless about the new genius that was forced upon her by the clan to train.
