I just returned to Konoha and found that all my clan members were gone.

Ye Lan’s words were like a bolt from the blue, and it took Oonoki a while to react.

"How dare you do such a thing! In collusion with Kumogakure!"

Ye Lan gave Xiu a look, indicating that it was no longer his time to show off, so Xiu immediately understood and walked forward.

"We have no cooperation with Kumogakure, but the Tsuchikage's move is so big that anyone who is not blind will notice it. Given the Raikage's personality, I'm afraid he will not let go of this opportunity."

Kakashi took a deep look at the people of Amegakure. He really couldn't agree with such behavior that disrupted the ninja world.

Ōnoki had no intention of staying any longer, so he urged Akatsuki to carry him on his back and return directly to Iwagakure, leaving only a few people from Amegakure and Konoha.

"This time, Konoha has helped Yugakure, so why don't we go visit them?"

Kakashi was also tasked with exploring the Hidden Rain Village. The craftsmen who had been sent to study there before were too far away from the core area of ​​the Hidden Rain Village and could not obtain any important information at all.

This time, Tsunade's intention is that it would be best if they could take the opportunity to enter Yugakure and obtain more information.

"Then come with me."

There was no sign of anything on Xiu's face, and he openly invited Kakashi and the others.

After this quarrel, both sides reduced the number of ninjas at the border. Ohnoki only left behind a few small teams of ninjas before leaving. The most important thing now is to deal with the Kumogakure ninjas who may have entered the Land of Earth.

Yuyin's side only left behind guard personnel. After all, the large troops of both sides were staying at the border and the supplies they used would not be small.

Kakashi and others followed Xiu to the Hidden Rain Village. This village that had not been open to the public for a long time was once again unveiled.

As the large army entered the village, the villagers who had been prepared for a long time had gathered on both sides, cheering continuously to welcome the triumphant return of the ninjas.

Kakashi frowned as he watched Xiu constantly greeting the surrounding villagers in a friendly manner.

"What's wrong, Kakashi, have you found any problem?"

Kai came up to Kakashi and whispered.

"I feel something is wrong. I also came to Amegakure during the last Chunin Exam. Although I just delivered some gifts and left in a hurry, the feeling of Amegakure now is very different."

Kakashi looked at the villagers on the street. This scene was a bit of a show, but the villagers' expressions couldn't be faked.

The clothes they wear and their rosy cheeks show that their lives are not bad now.

"Kakashi, don't think too much. Our original mission has been completed. We came to Yugakure just to see if we can have in-depth cooperation."

Asuma didn't care. Konoha's initial action pleased the Iwagakure and would definitely make the Amegakure unhappy. Now they came here to repair the relationship between the two sides.

"Dear guests of Konoha, we have informed Lord Hanzo of your arrival. Now I will take you to see Lord Hanzo."

Before Kakashi and the others could observe for too long, Liang walked up to them and spoke directly.

Kakashi looked up at the sky, and the raindrops fell on his face, disrupting his thoughts. He didn't expect the other party to be ready so quickly. There was no reason to refuse, so he said directly, "Lead the way."

Arriving at a more central location in Amegakure, Kakashi kept paying attention to the surroundings. He discovered that the closer to the center the area, the fewer people there were.

There were no civilians to be seen in Yuyin, and there were patrols from time to time. If Liang hadn't led them, there would definitely be conflicts if they had rashly entered.

They came to a spacious room, and saw the same screen that Kakashi had seen last time. He could vaguely see a figure behind the screen.

"Are you from Konoha? What's your business this time?"

Hanzo's face could not be seen, and only a slightly old voice could be heard through the screen. Last time, Kakashi wondered why Hanzo wanted to meet like this. What had happened that prevented Hanzo from seeing people easily?

Putting aside the thoughts in his mind, Kakashi replied, "Through the last cooperation, both Konoha and Amegakure were quite satisfied. The Hokage sent me here this time in the hope of strengthening the cooperative relationship between the two sides once again."

"Huh, is that really the case? Is this how you in Konoha treat your collaborators?"

Hanzo's dissatisfied voice sounded from behind the screen, and waves of pressure were released invisibly. Kakashi and others' faces changed. This pressure was no weaker than that of any of the three ninjas.

Kakashi is no longer the same Kakashi as before. Although he cannot use moves like Raikiri Chidori after losing his Sharingan, it also removes the limitation of his low chakra amount. After a period of training, his strength is much stronger than before.

Kakashi suppressed the slight panic in his heart, lowered his posture, and organized his words.

"Iwagakure was indeed wrong in the beginning, and they paid the price for it. If they anger Iwagakure again, the Fourth Shinobi World War will most likely break out. I don't think Hanzo-sama wants to see this happen."

The pressure around him relaxed, and the figure behind the screen, who had been looking somewhat leisurely, sat up straight.

"But it is a fact that you helped Iwagakure. How do you want to compensate Amegakure next?"

Kakashi was already prepared and gave Asuma a look, who then took out a scroll and handed it to him.

A Rain Ninja who was guarding in front of the screen took the scroll, knocked on the screen and handed it over.

Kakashi lowered his head and could just barely see an arm reach out and take the scroll.

It was obvious that the arm belonged to an elderly person, and Kakashi's doubts disappeared completely.

The only sound in the quiet room was the rustling sound of a scroll being opened behind the screen. The person behind the screen watched for a while before speaking.

"You guys in Konoha are really generous. You're willing to share medicinal herbs, food, and even A-level palm magic with Yugakure as compensation. This really makes me feel a little overwhelmed."

Kakashi immediately replied, "It would be great if it would satisfy Amegakure."

In exchange for helping Iwagakure, Konoha must pay some price. Even if the price does not need to be too much, it must be acceptable on the surface. These things are also the result of unanimous agreement of Konoha's top leaders.

"Go back and tell Tsunade that this matter is over, but don't even think about Yugakure's latest vehicle technology."

The person behind the screen may have felt tired, so he waved his hands and said something, meaning he was going to get rid of the person.

"Hanzo...sir." Kakashi thought about it and decided to use honorifics. He still had one thing to confirm. "Regarding the matter of Kumogakure..."

"Do you really believe that we will cooperate with those barbarians?" the person behind the screen asked back.

"what do you mean?"

"Kumogakure also approached us at the beginning. Since they wanted to steal Yugyakure's technology from the beginning, there was no possibility for us to cooperate with Kumogakure. But Kumogakure will definitely keep an eye on Yugyakure's movements. If Ai is not a fool, he will definitely cause some trouble for Ōnoki."

After hearing the explanation, Kakashi suddenly realized that the thing he was worried about did not happen after all. Now he could go back and report.

As for Yuyin's latest technology, it seems that it cannot cause much damage to some powerful ninjas at present. We can seek cooperation again when there is a chance in the future.
