"Yes, Tsunade-sensei!" Hinata Ichiro said, "I took Hakura to the Sand Hidden Ninja Village to settle Hakura's allegiance to me!"

"Tsunade-sensei, can you accompany me to the Sand Hidden Ninja Village?"

"Ichiro, that's no problem!" Tsunade agreed. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Tsunade-sensei, I'll tell Tsunade-sensei when I go to the Sand Hidden Ninja Village!" Hinata Ichiro said.

"Hmm!" Tsunade nodded and said, "Ichiro, when you tell me the date of going to the Sand Hidden Ninja Village, I'll find a way to find time when the time comes!"

"Thank you, Tsunade-sensei!" Hinata Ichiro said, "By the way, Tsunade-sensei, did you have anything important to do when you came to my room today?"

"Ichiro, it doesn't matter!" Tsunade said, "Ichiro, I'm going to look for you in your room this morning, just because the Yunyin Ninja Village visiting team has already started packing their bags and plans to leave for the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village the day after tomorrow!"

"And after Lujiu got the news, he also quickly notified us envoys, so that we, the envoys, were ready to leave for Konoha the day after tomorrow!"

"I was going to the restaurant at the time, and after receiving a notice from Shikaku, I told Shikaku that I would inform you of the news!"

"So, I went to your room!"

"Tsunade-sensei, I'm finally going back!" Hinata Ichiro said, "It's not a short time since we've been out!

"Yes!" Tsunade said approvingly, "Ichiro, it's really been a short time since we came out!"

Mist Hidden Ninja Village.

Mizukage Office Building.

Mizukage Office.

"Are you saying that in Hinata Ichiro's room, since this morning, except for Hinata Ichiro himself, only Tsunade has been in and out of Hinata Ichiro's room?"

"That's true, Mizukage-sama!" replied respectfully from the members of the Fog Hidden Ninja Village's dark department, "According to the report of the personnel we installed in the State Guesthouse, it is true that no one has been in or out of Hinata Ichiro's room except for Hinata Ichiro and Tsunade!"

"So has Ichiro Hinata returned to his room now?" asked Mizukage the fourth generation.

"Mizukage-sama, since Hinata Ichiro left his room, he has been staying in the lounge of the State Guesthouse to chat with Tsunade and the others, and he has not returned to his room!" said respectfully from the members of the dark department of the Misty Ninja Village.

"Okay, I see, you can go down!" said the fourth generation Mizukage with a wave of his hand.

"Yes, Mizukage-sama!" said the members of the Dark Division of the Fog Hidden Ninja Village respectfully.

After the members of the Fog Hidden Ninja Village Dark Division left, the four generations of Mizukage muttered to themselves, "Could it be that Hinata Ichiro just let Hakura stay in his room all the time?"

"But Hinata Ichiro is also going to leave for Konoha to return, and it's useless to let Hakura stay in his room all the time!

"Unless ......"

Speaking of this, the four generations of Mizukage said loudly: "Someone!"

"Mizukage-sama, what are your orders?" asked the officer on duty at the door as he walked into Mizukage's office.

"Call a sentient ninja!" Mizukage said, "Remember, the sentient ninja who has been called has a larger perception range!"

"Yes, Mizukage-sama!" said the officer on duty respectfully.

After saying that, the staff on duty went to call people according to the instructions of the fourth generation of Mizukage.

When the sentient ninja who had been called came to the office of the fourth generation of Mizukage, the fourth generation of Mizukage commanded: "You can feel Hinata Ichiro's room in the state guesthouse with me now, and see if there is anyone in Hinata Ichiro's room now? If so, how many people are in Hinata Ichiro's room?"

"Yes, Mizukage-sama!" replied the perceptual ninja respectfully.

After answering, the perceptual ninja began to use his sentient abilities.

After a while.

"Mizukage-sama, there's no one in Ichiro Hinata's room at the State Guesthouse!" replied the sentient ninja.

"Are you really sure there aren't anybody?" asked the fourth Mizukage.

"Yes, Mizukage-sama, through perception, there are at least no ninjas in Hinata Ichiro's room!" said the perceptual ninja, "because I can't sense the presence of chakra in Hinata Ichiro's room!"

"Okay, I see, you go down!" said the fourth generation of Mizukage.

"Yes, Mizukage-sama!" said the perceptual ninja respectfully.

With that, the perceptual ninja left the office of the four generations of Mizukage with ease.

After the perceptual ninja left his office, the eyes of the fourth generation of Mizukage appeared in the eyes of the chakra-eye, and he muttered: "It seems that Hinata Ichiro did know 'instantaneous technique' before, and it is also a 'teleportation technique' that can teleport people!"

"In other words, when Hinata Ichiro asked me to come out of the other space and talk to him, he was sure to leave before I did it!"

"Considering my layout in Konoha, I should collect information about Ichiro Hinata in the future and pay attention to Ichiro Hinata's actions!"

"Lest Hinata Ichiro notice my layout in Konoha or inadvertently destroy my layout in Konoha!"

……

――――――――――

Two days later.

State Guesthouse.

Both the Konoha team and the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village team packed their bags and prepared to leave for their respective countries.

Of course, although both the Konoha and Cloud Hidden Ninja Village teams set off on the same day to return to their respective countries, the departure times of the two missions were not the same.

The team of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village departed first to return to the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village in the morning, while the Konoha team left for Konoha after the afternoon.

When the time came to the afternoon, Hinata Ichiro and his entourage walked out of the State Guesthouse and walked towards the entrance of the Fog Hidden Ninja Village under the congratulations of all the service staff of the Konoha Rest Garden led by Manager Kumiko Takahashi.

When I came to the entrance of the Fog Hidden Ninja Village, I unsurprisingly saw the messenger of the previous leader Konoha visiting team who came to the Fog Hidden Ninja Village.

"Young Master Hyuga, Patriarch Nara, because I led you to the Fog Hidden Ninja Village before, and I am your acquaintance, so, when you leave the Fog Hidden Ninja Village, the Fog Hidden Ninja Village sent me to send you to the port!" said the messenger of the Fog Hidden Ninja Village.

"Then there's a labor messenger!" Hinata Ichiro thanked.

"Yes, hard work messenger!" Nara Shikahisa thanked.

"This is my job!" said the Mist Ninja Village Emissary shook his head.

After that, accompanied by the envoy of the Fog Hidden Ninja Village, Hinata Ichiro and his party left the Fog Hidden Ninja Village.

Because it was a return trip, and Hinata Ichiro and his party had no worries in the Fog Hidden Ninja Village, so the walking speed of Hinata Ichiro and his party accompanied by the messenger of the Fog Hidden Ninja Village was much faster than when they came.

A few days later.

Accompanied by the messenger of the Fog Hidden Ninja Village, Hinata Ichiro and his party have arrived in the port city of the Land of Water by boat before.

As soon as they arrived in the port city of the Land of Water, the envoy of the Mist Ninja Village took the lead in asking the port city managers who had already received the news and were waiting for the arrival of Hinata Ichiro and his party about arranging the departure time of the Konoha ship.

After learning that today was not suitable for sailing due to the weather, the envoy of the Mist Hidden Ninja Village spoke: "Ladies and gentlemen, Konoha guests, looking at the weather, the sea may not be calm today, so let's wait until tomorrow to set off!"

When the envoy of the Fog Hidden Ninja Village asks the port city administrators, Nara Shikakuya exchanges with the captain of the Konoha ship docked in the port city.

Hearing what the envoy of the Fog Hidden Ninja Village said, Nara Shikahisa saw that the captain of the Konoha ship also looked approving, and agreed: "Okay! Then we will listen to the envoy's arrangement!"

"Patriarch Nara, in that case, let's ask all the guests of Konoha to stay for one night, the city administrator has already arranged a place for the guests of Konoha to stay. The envoy of the Fog Hidden Ninja Village said.

"Messenger, thank you on my behalf!" said Nara Shikaku.

"Patriarch Nara, I will!" said the messenger of the Misty Ninja Village.

After that, Hinata Ichiro and his entourage stopped in the port city to return home.

……

――――――――――

The night of rest in the port city.

The stars in the sky dotted the dark night sky, and under the night, a group of unidentified people evaded the guards of the port city and quietly approached the hotel where Hinata Ichiro and his party were staying.

After arriving at the hotel where Hinata Ichiro and his party were staying, the group of unknown people lurked and kept observing the movements of the guards around the hotel.

After waiting for a while.

Perhaps it was an appointment in advance, and someone in the hotel walked to the door of the hotel, looked left and right, and then walked in one direction.

After seeing the faces of the people leaving the hotel, the leader of this group of unidentified people moved from the lurking and followed closely.

After walking a short distance, the two came to a dark corner.

"Alright, there's no one else around, just here!" the leader called out to the hotel staff walking in front.

Hearing the sound from behind, the hotel staff stopped and continued to move forward.

"Which room is Nara Shikahisa in the Konoha visiting team?" asked the leader.

"No. 2 on the third floor!" replied the hotel staff.

"When will the Konoha team return to Konoha by boat tomorrow?" the leader asked.

"I don't know. The hotel staff replied, "But under normal circumstances, it should be 9 a.m."

"Will you be able to get close to Nara Shikaku?" asked the leader.

"Yes!" replied the hotel staff, "I was able to enter Nara's room as a waiter." ”

"What room is Ichiro Hinata in?" the leader asked.

"No. 3 on the third floor!" replied the hotel staff.

"Does Hinata Ichiro live alone at No. 3 on the third floor, or does he share No. 3 on the third floor with the others?" asked the leader.

"Alone!" replied the hotel staff.

"Will you be able to get close to Hinata Ichiro too?" asked the leader.

"Yes!" replied the hotel staff.

"Hmm!" the leader nodded, and then asked, "When the Konoha visiting team checked into the hotel, was it faintly divided into two small groups, Nara Kaku and Hinata Ichiro?"

"No!" The hotel staff replied after thinking carefully for a while, "There is no sign of division among the members of the Konoha visiting team!"

"That's it!" the leader frowned, then said, "Alright, I have two letters in my hand, and you can hand them over to Nara Shikahisa and Hinata Ichiro for me!"

"Remember, don't let outsiders notice your actions when you hand over your letter!"

"Yes!" replied the hotel staff.

"By the way, after you handed over the letter to Nara Shikaku, by the way, remind Nara Shikahisa to read the letter in his hand carefully!" said the leader, "Also, you have to tell Nara Shikahisa that you will wait for his reply tomorrow morning after reading the letter!"

"If Nara Shikahisa is interested, you tell Nara Shikahisa tomorrow morning, and our group will wait for the Konoha visiting team to arrive by boat in front of the Konoha visiting team's route!"

"If Nara Shikahisa has no intention, then don't say anything!"

"As for Hinata Ichiro's reply, you can also go and meet Hinata Ichiro tomorrow morning, and then find a way to inform me of the reply he told you!"

"Yes!" replied the hotel staff.

After receiving a definite reply from the hotel staff, the leader handed over the two letters that he had personally collected to the hotel staff.

"Alright, let's go our separate ways and go about our own business!" the leader said after seeing that the hotel staff had put the letter away properly, "Remember, we have never met each other!"

"We've never seen each other!" the hotel staff said again after the leader had finished speaking.

After that, the leader and the hotel staff left from different directions.

The hotel staff had purchased some things outside before returning to the hotel, and the leader had gone around aimlessly for a few laps before returning to the place where he had been lurking.

Upon returning to the place where he had been lurking, the leader led the others to an inconspicuous warehouse on the docks, after leaving a few people to wait around the hotel to observe the movements of the hotel.

After returning to the hotel, the hotel staff disposed of the things they had purchased, and then came to the third floor where the Konoha visiting team lived.

……

――――――――――

Room 2 on the third floor.

After knocking on Nara's Lujiu's room, the hotel staff immediately spoke: "Patriarch Nara, I have something I want to talk to you about alone, is it okay?"

"In that case, then you can come in!" Nara Shikahisa looked at the hotel staff and continued.

"Thank you, Patriarch Nara!" said the hotel staff.

After speaking, the hotel staff first looked around, and after finding that no one else saw their actions, they stepped into Nara's room in Shikaku.

Seeing the cautious appearance of the hotel staff, Nara Shikahisa asked aloud, "Who are you?"
