Naruto: Hundred Flowers Niandi

Glancing at Sarutobi Asuma who was a little excited, the Third Hokage had no intention of answering for the time being. He picked up his pipe and took a deep sip, then breathed out gently. Thick white smoke filled the eyes of the old village chief, making people see His expression is unclear.

"Shikaku, go back and pack up immediately and set off immediately. News came back this morning that Suna Ninja has already taken action. Changes may happen at Iwagakure at any time. The sooner you get there, the better." The Third Hokage said in the same tone: " And Zhenyi, the new member of your team is at the mission now, go and get to know him."

"Yes, Sandaime-sama" Nara Shikaku nodded and walked towards the door.

"I understand, Mr. Sandaime." Chiba Mai bowed and responded, then grabbed Metkai, who was still motionless, and walked out the door. The old village chief was obviously chasing people away, and he would definitely be there soon. We have family matters to deal with, so it would be too short-sighted not to leave.

"Click" Chiba Mai had just closed the door from the outside when she heard Asuma Sarutobi's excited question coming from inside:

"Sandaime-sama, you haven't answered my question yet."

"I have other plans for you."

"Can you please explain the arrangements?"

"Alas Asuma, you are the great name of the Fire Nation"

Chiba Mai was still listening carefully when she suddenly felt someone tapping her shoulder from behind. She turned around and saw Nara Shikaku helplessly waving his hand at her. Without waiting for her to respond, he grabbed her collar and pulled her directly. He picked her up, ignored her struggle, and walked out of the building along the corridor.

Metkai looked at the door of the office, then at Chiba Mai who was struggling "hard" under Nara Shikaku in front of him, and quickly followed him.

After arriving a dozen meters away from the Hokage's office building, Nara Shikaku let go of his hand and "removed" Chiba Mai, with a look of helplessness on his face and prepared to teach him a few words.

Before he could speak, Chiba Mai was arranging her clothes and looked up at her being "transported" here. Nara Shikaku said:

"Teacher Shikaku, I know what you are going to say. Don't worry. I'm just caring about my companions. Even if you don't take pictures of me, I will still be ready to leave. Besides, I only stayed at the door for two or three seconds, and I haven't even intended to eavesdrop on the information." It’s at a point where even the ANBU hiding in the dark can’t say anything.”

"" Nara Shikaku opened his mouth, looked at Chiba Mayi's "I understand everything" look, and said without interest: "Forget it, you just know it yourself."

"Okay, I'll leave first, Akai and Captain Mayi." Nara Shikaku waved his hand and turned to leave.

"Have a nice trip," Chiba Mai shouted to Nara Shikaku's back, turned her head and patted Metkai who was waving at the side: "Now, let's go meet our new teammates."

Metkai nodded and followed Chiba Mai, who had already walked a few steps: "By the way, Mai, what did you hear?"

"It's nothing. Asuma just has a new mission. We can't help, so you should take care of yourself first." Chiba Mai shook her head and swung her high ponytail behind her head.

"Yeah, I understand." Metkai held his chin with one hand and nodded slightly in a serious manner. He didn't know what he understood: "Speaking of which, what do our new teammates look like?"

"Here" Chiba Mai raised her eyebrows, took out the two pieces of information from the ninja bag, and handed them to Metkai.

"Mountain Castle Aoba, Shiranui Genma"

Konoha Mission Office.

As the clouds of war gradually enveloped, Konoha has stopped accepting external tasks. Except for those that have been accepted and those that have not yet been completed, tasks are basically no longer issued, so the place is much deserted.

At this time, two teenagers around the age of thirteen or fourteen were standing at the door of the mission office, as if waiting for something.

One has a turban on his head and has brown hair that is longer than his temples. He holds a thousand books in his mouth and looks calm without any anxiety. The other has short black hair and wears a pair of sunglasses. He is looking down at the ground, even though he is blocked by the sunglasses. , still unconsciously avoiding the occasional glances of the few people around.

"By the way, Aoba, have you heard?" The boy with a senbon in his mouth suddenly said: "Yesterday, a girl who was only ten years old was promoted to a special jounin."

"Yeah, I've heard that too." Upon hearing this, the boy in sunglasses, who was called Qingye, suddenly raised his head. However, after feeling a few looks from him, he slowly lowered his head and said softly: "Genma, I also heard that the reason why she was promoted exceptionally was because she successfully intercepted the previous invading Suna Ninja team, and she single-handedly eliminated ten invading Suna Ninja Jonin."

"That's right, have you heard about another news?" Senbon said in a different direction, and Shiranui Genma leaned into Yamashiro Aoba's ear.

"What?" Yamashiro Aoba tilted his head and asked curiously.

"Just this morning, when I was coming here, I heard two people chatting on the roadside and talking about this matter." Shiranui Genma looked around carefully, as if telling a ghost story, and spoke with a In a gloomy tone, he whispered: "One of them seems to have come back from the southwest border. According to his words, he saw with his own eyes that there was not even a complete corpse at the scene of the incident. There was blood and broken meat all over the ground."

"Really?" I don't know whether he was frightened by Shiranui Genma's tone or the content of his words. Yamashiro Aoba took a step back suddenly, his face full of surprise.

"I don't know about that," Shiranui Genma's tone returned to normal, and the thousand books in his mouth returned to their original positions: "However, groundless rumors may not be unfounded. If there is no basis, there will be no such rumors. ."

"That's right." Yamashiro Aoba pushed up the sunglasses in front of him and sighed: "However, although I don't know whether the corpse thing is true or not, it is really amazing to have such strength at the age of ten and as a girl."

"That's true." Shiranui Genma scratched his head: "Actually, the name Chiba Mayi was occasionally mentioned in the chat by people in the village. They all said that he was a genius. I didn't expect it to be of this level."

"Her name is Chiba Mayi. I seem to have heard my neighbor's aunt mention it before. She is in the same class as their child. She is said to be a very cute girl with a single ponytail. She seems to be two grades below us." Yamashiro Ao Ye recalled holding his chin.

"It doesn't matter what she looks like. I don't really want to get to know her anyway. She must be a very violent person if she can cut people into pieces." Shiranui Genma put his hands in his trouser pockets and shrugged: "Did the person who notified us make a mistake at the time? Where are the promised captain and companions?"

Yamashiro Aoba also looked up at the intersection on both sides. Suddenly he patted Shiranui Genma next to him, pointed in one direction and said: "Genma, look at the two people walking over there, are they them?"

"Where?" Shiranui Genma turned around and saw a man and a woman walking at the end of the street. They looked younger than the two of them: "Probably not. They don't look older than us. Doesn't it mean there is a captain?"

"Wait a minute." Shiranui Genma's expression changed, his brows furrowed slightly, and he murmured to himself: "Ten-year-old single ponytail special jounin"
