Chiba heard the meeting between Hatake Sakumo and other jonin, and guessed that this mission was the one that caused Hatake Sakumo to commit suicide.

Because as the leader of the Konoha Ninja of the Grass Country, Hatake Sakumo's duty is to arrange troops and preside over the overall situation.

In the stable situation of the Grass Country, there is no need for Hatake Sakumo to lead the team to perform the mission.

Now that the scroll of the Rock Ninja is intercepted, Hatake Sakumo will lead the team personally, so it is most likely this mission.

And this mission is indeed very important.

If the scroll of the Rock Ninja does record the plan for the subsequent strategy, then if Konoha gets this scroll, it will have a great impact on the next war.

At that time, Hatake Sakumo had a chance to get the scroll, but lost this opportunity because of saving his companions, and it would definitely be dissatisfied with the Konoha high-level.

However, Chiba is very curious about who will leak this secret and make Hatake Sakumo the target of all the people in Konoha.

Even the insidious and cunning Danzo would not do such a thing at this time.

Although Danzo will stop at nothing to achieve his goal, it must be said that this guy Danzo is still very loyal to Konoha.

I believe Danzo knows very well how important Hatake Sakumo is to Konoha now.

At this juncture, it would be harmful to Konoha and Danzo to destroy Konoha White Fang, who is on par with the three ninjas of Konoha.

After all, if Konoha is gone, no matter how unscrupulous Danzo is, it will be of no use.

But all this has nothing to do with him. He just needs to be a spectator, watch what happens, and get the witness point.

Just when Chiyu continued to listen to the content of the meeting as if it had nothing to do with him, Hatake Sakumo suddenly looked at Chiyu.

"Chiba, you are very mobile. Are you interested in carrying out this mission with me?"

Chiba frowned.

He was just a spectator and had no intention of getting involved in this mess.

And if he got involved, it would be very likely that Kakashi would no longer be his true companion.

After all, the idiot who was rescued by Hatake Sakumo would blame Hatake Sakumo.

The same must be true for other teammates.

Even if Chiba didn't do this, he would definitely be counted in the eyes of others.

By then, if he didn't blame Hatake Sakumo, people would think that he must have participated in the blaming.

So Chiba must not participate in this mission.

Chiba declined politely,"I'm sorry, Lord Sakumo, I have a technique that is in an important stage of development recently. The main reason I returned to the base this time is to be able to develop this technique with peace of mind.

And Orochimaru will send a summoning beast to inform me of something recently. Although I am looking forward to carrying out missions with Lord Sakumo, I cannot act with Lord Sakumo this time."

Hatake Sakumo nodded.

Although Chiyu came to the Land of Grass for support, Hatake Sakumo thought that Chiyu was a person with a special mission, and did not regard Chiyu as his subordinate.

So when Chiyu said that he wanted to develop a new technique, and that Orochimaru might contact Chiyu and could not participate in the action, Hatake Sakumo did not force it.

The reason why Hatake Sakumo made this invitation was indeed because Chiyu was strong enough.

At the same time, this mission is of great merit, and if Chiyu participates, he can also share some of the credit.

After all, Chiyu is now the master of his son Kakashi, so he would naturally help if he could.

But Chiyu refused

, there was nothing he could do. Hatake Sakumo finally said,"Then it's settled now. I'll lead the team, and the three of you will follow me. Then we'll let a perceptive ninja follow us, and we'll set off in an hour. While

I'm away, Shinsuke, you will be in charge of the dispatch. This mission is a confidential mission, and it's enough for only a few of us to know about it!"

This Shinsuke is also from the Nara clan, with a signature pineapple haircut.

After the meeting, Hatake Sakumo said to Chiba,"Chiba, you have worked hard during this period. Thanks to you for finding a large number of hidden bases of the Rock Ninja. I never thought that the Rock Ninja had so many hidden bases.

If the war really breaks out in full force, these hidden bases are likely to cause us heavy losses."

Chiba said modestly,"This is originally my mission, and it is my duty that I should fulfill."

Hatake Sakumo forced an ugly smile and said,"The last time I saw Kakashi, he had become much stronger. It is his luck to be able to worship you as his master. I will trouble you a lot from now on. I will go on a mission next. Chiba, you should have a good rest at the base."

Chiba nodded and said,"Yes, Lord Sakumo, don't worry about Kakashi."

Chiba left the room and met Kakashi who was waiting at the door.

Kakashi asked,"Teacher Chiba, is the meeting over?

Chiba looked at Kakashi with a strange look in his eyes and nodded,"Well, it's over, you can go see Master Sakumo.""

""Okay."

Kakashi entered the room.

Chiyu breathed a sigh of relief. After this mission, the situation of Konoha in the Land of Grass will change.

The lack of a ninja in charge is equivalent to the lack of a backbone, which will easily cause problems.

During the time when Hatake Sakumo came back, Chiyu did not plan to continue searching, and would wait and see the situation.

Although it was a bit sorry for Kakashi, knowing that Hatake Sakumo would get into trouble, he could not change anything.

Hatake Sakumo, who had a deep belief in the will of fire, would definitely not give up this mission or give up rescuing his companions just because of his one-sided words.

It is even possible that Hatake Sakumo would be hostile to him.

Therefore, standing idly by is the only thing Chiyu can do.

Hatake Sakumo and four ninjas have quietly set off.

Except for a limited number of people who know, no one else knows that Hatake Sakumo has gone on a mission in person.

Chiyu came to his room in the base and took out the A map with many crosses on it.

Chiyu plans to take advantage of this time to check and fill in the gaps to see if there are any places that have been missed so that he can go directly to find them next time.

Time passed quickly.

It has been a week since Hatake Sakumo left the base to perform a mission.

During these seven days, the base was presided over by Nara Shinsuke, and nothing happened.

In addition to practicing himself, Chiyu has been teaching Kakashi to practice these days.

That night.

Hatake Sakumo, who was out on a mission, came back.

There were five people when he left, and there were five people when he came back. All five people were injured, one of them had his right arm missing, and his legs were bloody and looked like they were blown off by a detonating tag or something.

As soon as he returned to the base, Hatake Sakumo immediately shouted for a medical ninja. Chiyu leaned against the shadow of the wall and watched the development of the situation.

Now Chiyu can be completely sure that this incident is the incident that induced Hatake Sakumo to commit suicide.
