Sunny and cheerful Konoha Genin

"What did you say?!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was woken up from his sleep and felt unwell after hearing the news from the Anbu.

Because of his old age, he would choose to open a silent barrier when he went to sleep to block out all the sounds from outside.

Generally, unless something major happens, no one will bother him.

There is nothing special that needs attention recently.

Therefore, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who went to bed early, was the last person to know what happened.

"The Hyuga clan's territory was attacked by unknown people, and a huge explosion occurred in the residence of Master Utane Koharu! The movements of the Kumogakure envoys are also very strange..."

"Ugh……"

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed in pain.

It makes me feel numb.

There's still a war going on outside, why did things start to stir up inside?

"Hel me up."

"Yes!"

With the help of the Anbu, Sarutobi Hiruzen barely got up and changed his clothes.

"Huruzen! Hiruzen!!"

The door was slammed open.

Mitomon En, crying with tears streaming down his face, rushed in like a mourner.

"Hiruzen!"

He saw Sarutobi Hiruzen who had just gotten up and rushed over to him.

"You don't even know what happened! How can you be the Hokage!!"

"Men Yan, calm down, what happened?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen had a headache from all the noise, but he still had to patiently ask.

"Xiaochun is dead!"

While wiping away his tears, Mito Kado En said something that almost made Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart stop.

"What did you say?!"

If he was still a little sleepy at the beginning, he could be said to be completely awake now.

"Why did she die out of nowhere?"

"It's all those beasts from the Hidden Cloud Village! They are not human. They actually attacked Xiaochun's residence in the middle of the night and blew up her house without any moral ethics!"

"Xiaochun was at home at the time!"

"They are probably dead now!"

"You must avenge her! You can't let those Cloud Ninjas go!"

Mitomon En's sad expression was out of control.

Even when his teacher, the Second Hokage, was busy, he wasn't this sad.

"Ugh……"

Sarutobi Hiruzen once again felt exhausted and closed his eyes in pain.

What happened to this world?

Teachers, friends, subordinates, they were all fine yesterday, but suddenly left today...

This is the world of ninja...

Even though Mizuto Menen is such an old man, he still can't let go.

"Let's suppress the unrest first."

Sarutobi Hiruzen put on the Hokage uniform and regained his calm expression.

No matter what, as the Hokage, I have to clean up this mess!

"Let peace return to the village!"

Leaving Mito Kado En in the room, Sarutobi Hiruzen walked out with the Anbu in high spirits, ready for a big fight.

However, it was discovered that the sounds of fighting in the village had completely ceased.

"what happened?"

He frowned, standing on top of the Hokage building.

"Lord Hokage!"

A dark part appears.

"The turmoil has subsided, and the kidnapped Hyuga clan lady was successfully recovered. The mysterious man threw her out after realizing that he couldn't escape, and she happened to be caught by the Red Bean Chunin. She has been returned to the Hyuga clan, and the Hyuga Hiashi failed to catch the murderer, and has now returned."

After he finished his report, another ANBU appeared.

"The movements of the Kumo Ninjas were very suspicious. Not long ago, the Anbu responsible for monitoring them discovered that their deceased leader was missing, and they came out as if they were looking for him. However, they found that only a few of them came out after the chaos and got rid of our tracking."

Finally a man wearing a root mask appears.

"According to the Root, the chaos tonight was most likely created by the Kumo Ninja Messenger, and the White Zetsu Afei who was discovered earlier was involved. It is not yet known whether they were deceived or had planned this in advance."

"Um?!"

The last piece of news was so explosive that everyone looked at the last Root Ninja who appeared.

"Is there any evidence?" Sarutobi Hiruzen asked cautiously.

If this is true, then this is something unusual.

It not only affects the exchanges between the two countries, but is also likely to bring the risk of war again!

But now Konoha's strongest ninjas are all fighting in Kirigakure, who can stop Kumogakure's attack? !

"There is evidence that Shu and Shui encountered members of the Kumogakure while on surveillance duty. After the battle, they discovered that White Zetsu was mixed in with them."

Tree is a code name for rope tree, and water is a code name for still water, because when operating within the roots, one should try to avoid mentioning any information related to oneself.

Both of them found it troublesome, so they came up with this code name.

Toru Ito just turned a blind eye.

"It's really like this!"

When Sarutobi Hiruzen heard that the information was discovered by Nawaki and Shisui, he immediately believed it.

At the same time, he immediately began to weigh the pros and cons in his mind.

Yeah, that's something those guys could do.

This is to put Konoha in a dilemma.

"Also, the body of the leader of the Kumogakure envoys was found together with the body of Utatane Koharu. They had been burned horribly and merged into one."

"…Then let them be buried together."

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed.

"Don't let Mitomon En know."

"Yes!"

On top of the Hokage Rock, Toru Ito sat cross-legged, looking at the Konoha Village below which had fallen into peace.

"What a busy night..."

He sighed, but felt extremely relaxed in his heart.

At last a great trouble has been eliminated!

"Hey, it's done."

Ah Fei popped his head out from beside him and asked: "When can you get promoted?"

"It won't take long. Thank you very much for this time."

"Hey, you're welcome. As a thank you, can you teach me how to poop?"

“…I really can’t teach you this.”

"Well, that's a shame."

Ah Fei shrugged and didn't really care.

"By the way, there is one thing I will need your assistance with later. It's about Akatsuki."

"Hmm? What's going on?"

"Seal the Three-Tails."

……

The distant Hidden Mist Village.

"How could it be thrown away? How could it disappear?!"

Yagura was furious.

He rarely loses his temper like this.

But today, when he was about to become the Three-Tails Jinchuriki, he found that the Three-Tails was missing!

There is a turtle sealed inside.

The serious Poseidon, when it unleashed the summoning technique, raised its head with its dying breath and exchanged glances with the confused Yagura.

Suddenly, Yagura's face turned red with anger.

"what is going on!"

"Who stole my Three-Tails?"

"Ahhhhh! Despicable damn thief!"

"Don't let me catch you!"

He was so angry that he grabbed everything around him and started smashing it!

There was a lot of clanging and smashing.

The Anbu members around them looked at each other, then quietly slipped out and closed the door thoughtfully.

"what!!!"

All that was left was Yagura's impotent rage inside.
