Konoha Village.

Often-walked at the gate.

Two men in green vests sat in a shed erected by the gate, shivering and continuing to make quails.

Twilight Shin, Tempest, and Sunset pass by, and they greet them with a smile.

"Go out to practice again, you guys are really hardworking, and you won't take a break until the New Year."

Moonlight Blastwind smiled and said: "Don't you also have no rest, anyway, you are idle on vacation, and if you don't use it to exercise, you don't know how far you will be left behind." ”

"As it is for you, the future of Konoha must be the world of you young people."

All three of them smiled modestly and did not answer.

Although they are not bad, they are still much worse than the group of people who have grown up now.

The so-called group of people refers to Kakashi, Maitkai, Asma, Sunset Red, and Shisui and others.

Especially Kakashi and Shisui, the reputation of the two is not only in Konoha, but also in the entire ninja world.

Comparatively speaking, although Shisui is a little younger than Kakashi, his record is even more exaggerated than Kakashi.

"We're training, see you back."

"Come on ↖ (^ω^)" ↗

The two gatekeepers waved their fists at them in encouragement.

When the three of them disappeared from sight, the two withdrew their gazes, each glanced at each other, and each quail salted fish.

Good for a while.

One of them stood up and said, "I'll go get some hot water, do you want it?" ”

"If you want, please bring me a drink." The other took out a cup and came out.

The man who fetched the water turned away and disappeared from sight.

Soon.

The person who fetched the water just now came back and handed over the hot water.

The man took it and drank: "Thank you Kensuke, it's really cold, I hope the winter will pass as soon as possible." ”

"It's not going to be a good winter, and it's going to be a long time after the year."

"When you say that, it feels even harder."

"I'm telling the truth."

The two chatted for a while, and then returned to the quail state.

……

……

Hokage.

Three generations were in the office, and several stacks of papers were piled up in front of him.

The closer he gets to New Year's, the more things he has to deal with as Hokage.

Just like when an enterprise reaches the year-end final settlement, during that time, especially the department and the boss in charge of data can work overtime and go crazy.

The same goes for the Hokage.

Not only did he have full authority to handle the affairs of the village, but he also had to submit various reports to the Daimyo of the Fire Country.

Fortunately, these things have been completed, but next year's various budgets also need to be reported in advance.

Knock knock~

"Enter."

"Report Hokage-sama, another outpost of ours on the border between the Grass Country and the Taki Country in the northwest of the Fire Country has lost contact."

It was the dark department personnel who came in, and when he came in, he went straight to the point, and after the report, he handed a scroll to the three generations.

After the three generations took the scroll, they carefully read the information on it.

The Land of Grass and the Land of Taki-no-Taki are two small countries that are in the middle of the Land of Fire and the Land of Earth.

At the time of the Third Shinobi War, the famous Kannabi Bridge was near here.

"It's an eventful season, even at this time, we have to stop, and send the fifth squad of the dark department to investigate the situation and confirm which force did it."

"But...... The fifth class is on a mission except for Twilight's people. ”

Three generations frowned, during this time, there have been continuous skirmishes on the border, and many people in the shadows have been expelled to carry out tasks.

"Then arrange ...... first"

"Except for the people who have to stay in the village, the rest of the manpower is no longer enough, and they will be killed every day." Danzang's voice came through the door, and he followed.

"Danzo-sama." The shadow man hurriedly saluted.

Tuan Zang ignored him, but looked at the three generations: "It turns out that what I did before was not wrong, push out a twilight Shen, and gain more."

The border is supposed to be a response to our actions in the village, which proves that we have caught their sore feet.

I've got a lot of information from this, and now is the time for us to put our hands together, break their minions into the Fire Nation, and clean up the rats. ”

As he spoke, Danzo also took out a scroll from his bosom and threw it to the three generations.

After a moment of silence, the third generation said, "This matter will be left to you to deal with." ”

Tuan Zang had expected the reaction of the three generations, nodded and turned to leave.

After Tuanzang left, the three generations thought for a while and said, "You go and call Asmaban." ”

……

……

In fact, Shen knows that others are not stupid to be spies, he is obviously released as a target.

And there is also shadow protection, and whoever is a spy must also think about it.

Based on some rumors in the village recently, it is prudent to guess that he himself is likely to be deliberately thrown out by Tuan Zang to attract attention, while the roots of the old dog are secretly acting.

However, prudence is not without its benefits.

During this time, Kakashi did not go in vain, and he didn't know how much wool he had taken from him.

The experience of fighting with masters has improved a lot, and even the control of the seal chakra during the battle has been greatly improved.

The level of swordsmanship has also improved.

Kakashi's own swordsmanship is very powerful, and although Brushing Wind and Yuyan were good later, they are now a little tender after all.

In short, blood earned.

This point has changed very significantly from the actual combat of the wind.

"No...... No, I can't, Shen, stop for a moment. ”

The moonlight wind was so tired that the whole person collapsed to the ground, and he didn't care if the ground was dirty or not.

After such a long period of exercise, although his physical fitness has improved a little, it is still too weak, this should be a disease in the body, and it needs to be slowly seasoned and rectified.

In any world, there will be many strange and incurable terminal diseases.

For example, weasels.

With his strength at the time, as well as his status as a member of Xiao, he still had nothing to do about his terminal illness.

Shen also stopped his movements and put down the bamboo knife he used for training.

He said: "Then let's stop here today, tomorrow is the new year, go back early today and clean up."

Thank you for the company of the two of you during this time, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to progress so fast, and I don't know what to say in the new year, so I wish you a happy new year one day in advance. ”

"Don't say that, Shen." The wind was still panting, and it was Xiyan who spoke, "We have also benefited a lot during this time, if it weren't for you, we might have been complacent for a long time."

It is you who make us understand that the so-called effort is not to move ourselves, but to surpass ourselves. ”

Cautiously surprised.

Anyway, when did I make you understand this?

Hurricane sat up from the ground and said with a smile: "Shen, what Xiyan said is right, we have to thank you well, knowing you is the most correct thing in my life." ”

Burst~

Twilight Shen almost squirted, big brother, I'm just polite to respond to the New Year, don't be so gay.

Hurricane and Xiyan didn't know what Shen was thinking, they glanced at each other, and said to Shen at the same time: "Shen, Happy New Year." ”

The tone was very sincere.

"Hehe, have fun, thank you!"

Shen's tone was equally sincere.
