Shadow Stream of Leaf

The actions of Hanyu and others were not unpleasant, but when they rushed back to Hokage, they only saw a battlefield full of chaos...

As well as Hokage and his private team standing in the center of the battlefield, the figure of the enemy Kakutsu completely disappeared.

Fortunately, Hokage seems to be safe and sound. Hanyu took a look at those people, not only did the Third Hokage look unscathed, even the bamboo hat with the character "火" written on it, which represented his official identity, had been firmly worn on his head.

As for the three little ones behind him, they looked a little disgraced and embarrassed.

"Hokage-sama, I'm very sorry." The captain of the Anbu team half-kneeled in front of the third Hokage, and expressed his apology to Hokage. It was entirely his gaffe that the enemy fled here. Obviously Konoha ninja has an absolute advantage, but But he let the other party run away under his nose.

Then, the dark troop leader continued, "Where's the enemy, have you been dealt with by Hokage-sama?"

The answer is definitely no, because Kakutsu's body was not found around, but it is precisely because Hokage only repelled the enemy but did not kill the enemy, Anbu had the opportunity to make up for his gaffe.

"It's not your fault. The enemy is very powerful and extremely cunning... If he fails with one blow, he will flee thousands of miles away. I haven't solved that Takigakure's rebellious ninja. And since I am Hokage, I can't even do it." When things like that happen, I shouldn’t blame you anyway.” Said the Third Hokage.

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

Captain Anu nodded, and Hokage's tolerance made him secretly relieved, "The third generation, shall we pursue the enemy next?"

Hokage stood with his hands behind his back, glanced at Jiraiya and the three behind him, then slowly shook his head, "It's not necessary, after the failure, those assassins won't make a second attempt. The task is urgent, we must arrive at Daming City on time."

It was precisely because of the three disciples that the three generations of Hokage had no way to fight with their hands and feet just now, and now it is also because of them that Hokage decided not to pursue that enemy.

"...I understand, Third Generation."

The Anbu ninja was probably unwilling at this time. He clearly had an absolute advantage on his side, but he let go of the enemy. But now that Hokage has made such a decision, the dark troop captain has no reason to refute.

What's more, what Sandai Hokage said was very reasonable. At this time, for their group, the political task of going to Daming City is the top priority.

Was it run away by the other party? Hanyu didn't think there was anything unexpected about such a result, after all, in his impression, Kakuzu seemed to be an exceptionally capable ninja, and... Hanyu turned his attention to the Third Hokage again.

Looking at Hokage at this time, Hanyu fully believed that the other party would become a kind old man with a kind face in less than a few decades. And the young Hokage, no matter how you look at it, looks a bit like the old President Bradley, always smiling, squinting, steady and ruthless.

When fighting against the ninjas on Hanyu's side, Kakuzu didn't seem to show his full strength, while the battle on Hokage's side, although the time was shorter, judging from the remaining battlefield situation, it seemed that this side was more powerful. Be intense.

However, the tragedy of Kakuto is that not only the first generation of Hokage did not take him seriously, it seems that the current third generation of Hokage does not pay much attention to him... Maybe this has something to do with the fact that Hokage pays special attention to the mission of Daimyojo?

According to the order given by Hokage, after a little reorganization, the guards re-arranged their formation and continued to advance towards the Daiming Castle. However, after being attacked once, the ninjas became more serious and vigilant at this time.

When passing through the previous battlefield, the Konoha ninjas briefly investigated the situation of the deceased, but found no valuable information on the body, and then they disposed of the attacker's body on the spot.

After spending a little extra time, Hokage and his party became calm during the next journey, and did not encounter any special situation. The group approached a very magnificent looking of the city.

At least it looks much grander than the plain-looking Muye Yin Village.

Through the open main gate of the city, the Konoha ninjas could see crowds of people on both sides of the main road inside, and colorful and colorful banners were still swaying among the crowd.

The guards of Hokage met each other, and then surrounded Hokage in a denser formation, only giving way to the passage directly in front of Hokage.

There is no better place for an assassin to hide than a large crowd, so for a ninja like Hanyu who performs escort tasks, the most annoying thing is this kind of outdoor activity with a show nature, but the problem is that Gain Hokage Because of the political significance of the move, they had to pass through the city gate and meet the crowds in the city.

Even Hanyu and the others had to be like Hokage, after entering the castle, they had to wear a fake smile on their faces... If he had known earlier, he should have put on his Anbu mask.

The guards followed behind Hokage, and were always ready to strike at any time. After a group of people passed through the city gate and Hokage himself first appeared from the shadow of the city gate, the crowd cheered suddenly and successively, and the enthusiasm of the crowd seemed to overthrow the entire city in an instant.

Hanyu was startled by such cheers, almost passed a water escape, and the Anbe ninja on the side was even more nervous than Hanyu, at this time Hanyu saw that someone's seal was half-knotted... The crowd I really shouldn't be startled in front of a group of nervous ninjas. Who is responsible for the real death?

However, this kind of deliberate welcome arrangement is not incomprehensible. After all, Hiruzaru Sarutobi seems to be Hokage, and the daimyo needs to express his goodwill to him, and the welcome of the masses to Hokage is by no means all hypocrisy. After all, the new Hokage is already Hokage. The country has brought victory, so much so that the country has half withdrawn from the protracted ninja war.

With a smile on his face, Hokage calmly passed by the middle of the road while waving to the daimyo city crowd on both sides.

And the ones in this team who are calmer than Hokage are his three disciples. Tsunade pretended to be serious with a straight face, but her eyes crossed the crowd to inspect the street signs further back. After seeing the word "gambling" occasionally, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and then she tried her best to restrain her smile.

Her expression even looked a little flattering, and those who didn't know it thought she had seen something she shouldn't have seen.

Jiraiya put his hands behind his head, licked his face and grinned, his eyes rolled around, and he kept looking around in the crowd.

As for the remaining Orochimaru, Hokage didn't lose face after all, he was really calm... Maybe he was thinking about a philosophical question at this time, what is the difference between himself and these ordinary people?

Hokage continued to move forward, and Hanyu and the others continued to prepare to use ninjutsu to smear others in the face at any time. After walking forward for a certain distance, Hokage and his party's vision was purple, and a young man in unusually gorgeous clothes and a high black crown appeared.

Behind him stood a maid in the same dress, holding a big black umbrella with cherry blossom prints for him.

This person should be the name of the Kingdom of Fire.

When the daimyo was more than ten steps away from Hokage, he actually walked out from under the umbrella on his own initiative. He moved his feet, and then stretched out his right hand towards Hokage.

The Three Hokages also stretched out their palms, so the hands of the two heads of state of one country were tightly held together.

The cheers became even louder.
