Roll back from Naruto

After leaving the Country of Whirlpool, we boarded a passenger ship across the strait and embarked on the journey back to Konoha.

Originally, Uchiha Fugaku was a little worried that they would be intercepted and killed by Kirigakure again along the way, but in fact, just as Aragaki expected, what Kirigakure wanted to prevent had become a fact.

If we take action against them now, it can at best be regarded as a kind of revenge and venting of anger, but I believe that this generation of Kirigakure leaders will not be so arrogant.

Therefore, their return trip was much easier than when they came before, but Aragaki still believed that this matter would not end here, and perhaps the tranquility at this time would also indicate that a more violent storm was coming.

Along the way, another question that troubled Aragaki was naturally about Doctor Uzumaki, although the two of them had a tacit understanding and did not mention this matter in front of the other two people during the trip.

However, he always felt that Dr. Uzumaki's attitude toward him had undergone a more... strange change. How to describe it?

On the one hand, she always tried to avoid direct conversations and being alone with Aragaki, but on the other hand, Aragaki felt that her attitude towards him was not as stiff and cold as before, or was it slightly sharp?

Isn’t it very contradictory? She used to be like a bright red rose with thorns, so close that no one dared to touch it; but now she seems to have cut off the thorns, but she stands in a place even farther away from him.

for remote locations.

Aragaki doesn't understand... If he did, he wouldn't have lived alone in his previous life, went out to a convenience store alone at night, and then traveled through time.

So after all, Aragaki, who has been single for two lifetimes and has been in his late thirties in total, knows nothing!

But Uchiha Fugaku understands, he understands very well!

He considers himself "the cold-faced love saint". Oh, this is Fugaku's new nickname for Aragaki. He thinks that the reason why Konoha's cold-faced love saint Aragaki still maintains a seemingly distant relationship with Captain Uzumaki, who is already engaged.

state.

That's because Aragaki is controlling "distance", and as the old saying goes, the so-called love requires distance! Distance can produce beauty.

So Uchiha Fugaku realized, no wonder he didn't catch up with Mikoto-senpai in school. Is it because he didn't know how to control the distance between the two? (Hurry up and take out a notebook to write down)

Immediately, my admiration for Aragaki became even stronger. Sure enough, you can learn a lot from following a good brother!

Aragaki also feels that Uchiha Fugaku has become very strange recently. When did he become so studious? He also carries a notebook with him and never forgets to take it out to write and draw when he is on the road.

Is he really summing up his experience in cultivation? It seems that he himself has to continue to work hard. After all, he does not have a "guaranteed" bloodline. If he wants to improve his strength, he has to take one step at a time.

So why don't we develop a thunder escape like Raikiri, Chidori or Chidori style? And he remembered that there are Muji offensive thunder escape ninjutsu.

As for Hinata Hinamori, he looked at the other three people thoughtfully, but he completely agreed with his teammate Aragaki Tsugumi in his heart. The only thing that made him regretful was that Aragaki Tsugumi's situation after returning to the village this time would probably not be the same.

Too optimistic.

…

Hokage Building.

In the room, in addition to the Third Hokage, you can also see senior advisor Mito Kadeni, Koharu who has been transferred to the dormitory, and Danzo who is wearing a bandage.

Snap, a document was photographed on the table in front of Aragaki, and sitting ten meters away from him were the above-mentioned senior officials of Konoha.

Is this an interview?

The other three members of the team are not here, or in other words, this temporary team has been disbanded after their mission ended.

It was an assistant ninja who spoke, straight to the point: "The special envoy of the Kingdom of Water submitted this statement of condemnation to Konoha, stating that at about 3:00 pm on October 14th, a group of Konoha ninjas were on board a passenger ship in the Strait of the Country of Whirlpool...

The Mist Ninjas of Kirigakure Village launched a surprise attack and caused the death of a total of six Mist Ninjas...

Therefore, the Kingdom of Water sternly declares that Konoha needs to conduct a detailed investigation on this matter and give an explanation... Therefore, please cooperate with our work and describe the incident in detail."

Sure enough, when he entered this room and saw this kind of battle, Aragaki had a premonition, but he didn't expect that he guessed it right.

The Kingdom of Water, or Kirigakure Village, unexpectedly came here with such a "bad guy complains first", and even issued a statement of condemnation to them "internationally" in the name of the country.

Looking through this condemnation statement, it can be seen that the side of the Kingdom of Water is extremely well prepared, with all the witnesses and material evidence available, and the general content was also stated by the Assistant Ninja just now.

It's nothing more than a slap in the face, saying that their Konoha ninjas took the initiative to sneak attack the Kirigakure ninjas, causing any casualties, and Konoha needs to give an explanation, and the wording is very strong, and they don't seem to mind changing the current peace and friendship between the Water Country and the Fire Country.

Relationship.

Except for the assistant ninja, the Hokage and the senior advisors did not speak, looking serious.

Aragaki didn't hold anything back and said everything that needed to be said, including how they acted to avoid "potential enemies" along the way, and also explained in detail the situation they encountered with the Kiri Ninja at that time.

At the same time, the assistant ninja was also asking, writing, asking, and writing... As for whether the other three people in the team also suffered from this situation, he didn't know.

Then I heard Aragaki Tsugumi say: "Excuse me, Hokage-sama, if I can ask a question?"

…

In fact, from the time he entered the door until now, Aragaki has not asked any questions, or answered any words that have nothing to do with the assistant ninja's questions. It can be said that Aragaki's performance feels "strange" to many Konoha senior officials.

Aragaki was neither noisy nor fussy, his face was expressionless, and his words were devoid of any emotion, making them unpredictable.

It stands to reason that a young ninja, who has clearly accomplished meritorious service by killing his enemy and successfully completed his mission, is misunderstood and even "interrogated" at such a time. Is he so calm? Doesn't he want to defend himself?

?

Finally, Aragaki asked a question and asked if he could ask a question...

A well-behaved ninja? If he refuses, can he really keep silent and let him be dealt with?

I saw the third generation and other senior executives exchanged glances with each other, and then said: "You can ask a question... but you have to think about it before asking."

It can be seen that Sandai and others are very concerned about what Aragaki will ask.

…

"Thank you, Hokage-sama. Actually, what I want to ask is, is there any discrepancy between my previous answers and my other three teammates?" Aragaki said.

In response, they became somewhat quiet.

Is he trying to get in touch with his teammates, or is he testing something? So they should tell him, are you the only one being questioned?
