Chapter 130: Pursuit

After listening to Tsunade's words, Shizune nodded and said, "Okay, Tsunade-sama!" But, Tsunade-sama, it's already this time, it's already close to evening, and it's a little late to go after Ichiro's junior brother today, and we won't be able to travel much if we set off now!"

"Tsunade-sama, why don't we ask the three generations of Hokage-sama today about the traces of Ichiro's junior brother and his party and the path they must take, and then set off to pursue Ichiro's junior brother tomorrow morning!

"I don't think Ichiro's entourage will go at full speed when they go to the Land of Water. www.biquge.info After all, this is an exchange of foreign affairs, and the villages should pay attention to their own faces, so as not to make the other party feel as if they have a request for the other party, and rush to the other party for help!"

"Besides, if Ichiro's junior brother and his party march at full speed, it is very easy to waste their precious physical strength, and it is also easy to plunge headlong into the ambush circle of the enemy forces! This will put the visiting team on the disadvantageous side when they encounter an attack, which is absolutely not allowed, I think Ichiro's junior brother and his party should not even be unclear about such a little common sense!"

"Therefore, Ichiro and his party will not walk fast!"

"And we will set off early tomorrow morning, and it should still be too late to rush to the front of Ichiro and his party at full speed!"

"Okay!Mute, just do what you mean!" Tsunade thought about Mute's words for a moment, looked at the current sky, and agreed.

"Hmm!Tsunade-sama, then you can rest at home! I'll take care of the preparations and inquire about Ichiro's whereabouts!" Shizune said.

Tsunade shook his head and said, "No, you can do the preparation of supplies! However, if there is anything to inquire about Ichiro's whereabouts, I should go to the old man in person, otherwise the old man is likely to reject you! After all, your identity is not enough, and the whereabouts of Ichiro and his party should now be a top secret in the village!"

"Besides, I promised the old man to stay in the village to teach the medical ninja medical ninjutsu of Konoha Hospital, but it needs to be postponed because I want to go to pursue Ichiro, so I have to explain to the old man in person, so that the old man will not have an opinion about Ichiro because of the matter of teaching the medical ninja medical ninjutsu of Konoha Hospital!"

"Okay, Tsunade-sama, I see what you mean!" Shizune said.

"That's good, then let's go and go about our own business now!" Tsunade said.

"Hmm!" Mute nodded.

Afterwards, Tsunade and Shizune left the courtyard, and after parting at the street entrance, they went in different directions to handle their own affairs.

……

――――――――――

Evening.

Hinata Ichiro and his entourage.

Nara Lujiu looked at the sky, then looked at the position of the visiting team, looked around, and said loudly to the visiting team: "Okay, everyone, it's not early now, and it's not a good plan to rush at night, so let's rest here for the night today!"

"Okay!" everyone in the visiting team nodded in agreement when they heard that Nara Shikahisa had decided.

"Alright, let's choose a suitable camping spot nearby!" said Nara Shikahisa after seeing everyone in the visiting team agree.

"Okay!" the members of the visiting team agreed again.

Subsequently, after a little time of searching at the suggestion of Shikahisa in Nara, the entire visiting team finally found a suitable place for camping on the open high ground by a small stream.

After finding a camping location, Nara Shikahisa spoke: "Okay, everyone, now that we have found a camping location, then I will arrange everyone's respective tasks tonight!"

"Zhiwei and Kai, the two of you are centered on the camping site, and you are responsible for scouting around!"

"Kakashi, Kyoko, the two of you are centered on the camping site, and you are responsible for laying a simple vigilant trap around the camp!"

"Everyone else stayed in the camp and was responsible for setting up camp and preparing food!"

"Guys, do you understand?"

"Yes!" the members of the visiting team agreed in unison.

As soon as the words fell, everyone in the visiting team began to carry out their respective tasks.

For a while, the camping site was bustling.

After a period of arrangement, it didn't take much time for the visiting team to set up tents at the campsite!

……

When Shiwei and Maitkai returned from scouting, Kakashi Hachiki and Kyoko Hinata also laid simple guard traps around the camp.

After the oil girl Zhiwei and a few others came back and found the camp where Nara Shikaku was, they wanted Nara Shikaku to report on the situation of their respective tasks.

After listening to the report of the oil girl Zhiwei and a few others, Nara Lujiu nodded, and said, "Okay, everyone has worked hard, let's go have dinner, there are only a few of you left in the camp without eating." ”

"Yes!" the oil girl Zhiwei and a few others agreed.

So the oil girl Zhiwei and a few others left the camp of Nara's dekaku.

And Nara Shikahisa is still handling his own affairs in the tent.

……

After some time.

Nara Shikaku walked out of his tent, looked at the camp photo of the crowd who was sitting around the campfire and chatted, and did not make a sound, but walked over, patted Kakashi and Maitkai on the shoulder a few times, and motioned for Kakashi Hachiki and Maitkai to follow him to the side.

After Kakashi Hachiki and Maitkai followed him to the side of the camp, Nara Shikaku opened his mouth and ordered, "Kai, you are in charge of the vigil from 8 o'clock in the evening to the first half of the night at 1 o'clock in the morning!"

"Yes!" Maitkai agreed.

"Kakashi, you're in charge of the vigil from 1 o'clock in the morning to the second half of the night at 6 o'clock in the morning!" Nara Shikaku commanded.

"Yes!" Kakashi Hachiki agreed.

"Okay, two, I'll leave the night guard of the camp to the two of you!" said Nara Shikaku.

"Captain Nara, don't worry!" Maitkai said with a thumbs up.

And Kakashi Hachiki also nodded, indicating that he would do his best.

"That's good! I've got some things to deal with with the visiting team, so let's go and rest for each of you now, and then start the vigil when the time is up!" Nara Shikaku nodded when he saw Maitkai and Kakashi Hachiki agree, and turned around and returned to his tent.

After Nara Shikaku left, Maitkai looked at Kakashi Hachiki beside him and said, "Kakashi, we're on a mission together again!"

"yes! Kakashi!" Kakashi Hachiki replied lazily.

"Kakashi, youth, youth, don't always be so lazy!" Maitkai said passionately.

"Uh!" Kakashi Hachiki wasn't ignited by Maitkai's passion, but continued to say lazily, "Kai, I'm going to rest, and when the time comes, I'll come to take over your vigil!"

"Okay!" Maitkai was not discouraged, and readily agreed.

……

Time passes slowly.

No one night!

Early morning.

The visiting team got up early, packed their luggage, and continued to start the scheduled journey!

……

――――――――――

8 a.m.

Konoha Village.

Tsunade house.

"Mute, are you ready?" asked Tsunade looking at Shizune, who had just finished packing.

"Tsunade-sama, everything is already packed!You're ready to go!" Shizune replied with a nodding head.

"That's good!Silence, let's go!" Tsunade said.

"Hmm!" Shizune agreed.

Then, Shizune left the house with his luggage and left the house together, heading out of the village.

When the two of them first arrived at the Konoha gate, they saw the three generations of Hokage standing at the Konoha gate and looking into the distance.

"Old man, what are you doing here?" Tsunade estimated that the third Hokage had come to persuade her to stay in Konoha to teach the medical ninjutsu of the medical ninjas in Konoha Hospital again, so he walked up and asked as he went.

"Hello, Lord Hokage, three generations!" Shizune followed behind Tsunade, waiting for the three generations of Hokage to hurriedly greet him when he heard Tsunade's voice and turned to look at him.

The three generations of Hokage nodded at Mute, and then said to Tsunade: "Tsunade, I have already passed the news to the necessary places in front of Ichiro's and his party's itinerary, and I have arranged for liaison personnel to prepare to contact Ichiro, why do you still want to leave the village and set off to find Ichiro!"

"Tsunade, do you really want to do this? After all, Ichiro wouldn't necessarily have to be unhappy with that original necklace!

Tsunade shook his head and said with a firm face: "Old man, don't persuade me! I should say it, I already said it when I asked you about the itinerary of Ichiro and his party yesterday, and I have already made up my mind!"

"Old man, if you can really persuade me, I was already persuaded by Mute yesterday, why should I go to you for the second time to ask the exact whereabouts of Ichiro and his party?"

"Old man, don't say any more, I've made up my mind!"

Seeing that he couldn't persuade Tsunade to stay, the three generations of Hokage simply stopped persuading him, but simply said: "Okay! Tsunade, since you said so, then I won't say anything more!"

Tsunade said, "Old man, thank you for your understanding! I can only say sorry for the fact that the village asked me to go to the ninja school to teach medical ninja medical ninjutsu!"

"But, old man, don't worry, when I go out and come back this time, I will definitely not shirk it, and I will definitely do my best to teach when the time comes!"

"Hehe! Tsunade, I'm not worried about this, I'm sure you'll do your best!" the third Hokage smiled and said, "Okay, in that case, let's go chase Ichiro!

"Well, old man, I will!Goodbye!" Tsunade said, nodding.

"Goodbye to the three Hokage-sama!" said Shizun respectfully.

"Goodbye! stay safe!" said the Miyo Hokage.

After saying that, the three generations of Hokage didn't wait for Tsunade and Shizune to walk out of the Konoha gate, and turned around and walked directly towards the Hokage Building.

"Shizune, let's go too!" Tsunade said to Shizune as he looked at the backs of the three generations of Hokage, and then at the scenery of Konoha Village around him.

"Hmm!" Shizune agreed.

Walking out of the gate, Tsunade discerned the direction and path, and headed east with silence.

On the road.

Shizune moved forward quickly as she asked, "Tsunade-sama, where are we going to find Senior Brother Ichiro?"

"Shizune, let's go to the port city of the Fire Country to the Water Country route!" Tsunade replied as quickly as he moved forward.

"Tsunade-sama, do you mean to go to the port city of the Fire Country to the Land of Water? Why is that? Didn't Senior Brother Ichiro just set off a day early? If we move quickly, we should be able to catch up with Senior Brother Ichiro and his party! Why do you want to go to the port city? It is already the eastern border of the Land of Fire!" asked Shizuki, puzzled.

Tsunade replied, "Shizune, when I went to the old man yesterday to ask about the itinerary of Ichiro and his party, the old man told me that Ichiro and his party did not have an exact itinerary in the territory of the Fire Country, except that they had to take a specially arranged ship in the port city on the eastern border!"

"The itinerary that was planned before was just a cover! Ichiro and his party would follow the itinerary they had determined at first, but after a day, they would change their itinerary! Choose the route they think is safe and efficient!"

"In this way, if we go to Ichiro according to the itinerary determined by Ichiro and his party before, we will not be able to find Ichiro!"

"At the beginning, the old man helped me pass on the news and asked the liaison staff to find Ichiro to get back the original necklace he had taken away, but I needed to wait for Ichiro and his party to arrive at the port city on the eastern border to take a specially arranged ship before they could contact Ichiro to get back the original necklace. ”

"Therefore, we also need to go to the port city on the eastern border in advance and wait for the arrival of Ichiro and his party! Otherwise, we will miss it on the road with Ichiro and his party!"

"If you miss it, if you want to catch up with Ichiro's party again, then the only way to enter the land of water in the midst of a civil war is to enter the land of water!"

"And once we enter the country of water that is in the midst of a civil war, we are very likely to be involved in the civil war of the country of water if we are not familiar with the place, and once we are involved, after our identity is exposed, this is extremely unfavorable for the mission that Ichiro and his party want to achieve!"

Mute suddenly, and then, with a happy look on his face, said, "Oh, I see! Tsunade-sama, I understand what you mean! Then let's hurry up and move quickly! Tsunade-sama, we must get to the port city on the eastern border a little earlier than Ichiro's junior brother and his party!"
