Dusk alternates with night, and night falls again.

The man who called himself the Toad Immortal left Konoha and headed for the unknown path.

A sneak that risked his life.

The quiet Konoha knew about it at this time, except for Tsunade.

They enjoy peace, but they never know how many people have sacrificed themselves for the sake of this peaceful peace.

Tsunade returned to the Hokage's office in some disappointment, while Shizune was still helping Tsunade with his affairs.

The Hokage ran away, and she, the Hokage's assistant, naturally had to be on duty.

Seeing Tsunade coming back, Shizune hurriedly stepped forward.

It's just that before I get closer, I smell the strong smell of alcohol on Tsunade's body.

Drink from morning to night, how can there be no alcohol on your body.

"Tsunade-sama! How can you drink like this......" Shizune said reproachfully.

If it was in the past, Tsunade would have started pretending to be stupid at this time to avoid Shizu's reproach.

But this time, Tsunade didn't.

On the contrary, her brow was furrowed, and she looked like she couldn't get rid of it.

Shizune has been following Tsunade for many years, so she naturally knows what her every move means.

Every time Tsunade showed such an expression, it was a drunken sound of the broken and rope tree.

At this time, Shizune only sighed faintly, added a dress for Tsunade, and then silently accompanied her next to her.

Putting the guinea pig aside, Shizune picked up a piece of clothing and draped it over Tsunade's body.

"Mute ......," Tsunade said suddenly.

"Huh? Tsunade-sama, what's wrong? ”

"I'm betting he's going to die."

"What?" Mute wondered.

She didn't understand why Tsunade had suddenly said this.

Tsunade lowered his head and continued: "Jiraiya went to Xiao's lair alone to find out the information, I bet he will die, you say, is this okay?" After all, I'm bound to lose every gamble. ”

After Tsunade finished speaking, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Tsunade-sama......"

Mute saw this, but couldn't say a word.

Tsunade's appearance may be able to fool others, but for Shizune, it's clearly a look of extreme worry.

"That big idiot, I'll definitely be back......"

After Tsunade finished speaking, he fainted.

Shizune was startled and hurriedly hugged Tsunade.

"Really, after drinking so much. Already drunk? Mute grumbled.

But when he saw the tears in the corners of Tsunade's eyes, Shizune couldn't complain anymore.

"Tsunade-sama...... Alas......"

Shizune sighed, then left with Tsunade in his arms.

If you complain, leave it until tomorrow.

……

Konoha Hospital, ward.

Click.

There was a knock on the door.

"Please come in."

The masked shadow walked in, and Kakashi smiled when he saw this, "Tenzo, you're here." ”

The shadow took off his mask and said, "Kakashi-senpai, is there anything you asked me to do?" ”

"That's right, my injuries are estimated to be hospitalized for about a month. In the meantime, please lead the seventh class on a mission. ”

"This ...... Kakashi-senpai, it's only a month, so you don't want me to lead the seventh class, right? Yamato wondered.

"Actually, I thought about this matter for a long time before deciding. Now although Naruto has a good relationship with the Nine-Tails, there will be no rampage incidents, but it is difficult to ensure that the Nine-Tails will be controlled by others, causing Chakra to go berserk, your Mu Dun is the best weapon against the tailed beast, and you can also play a certain role in protecting Naruto's side. After all, Xiao is getting more and more restless now. ”

Kakashi explained the reason to Yamato, and it dawned on Yamato.

"I see, I see."

"I'll leave the matter of the dark department to Xiaohu for the time being, if there is any problem that can't be solved, let Xiaohu come to me."

"Yes! Kakashi-senpai! ”

"Please."

Yamato stepped back after receiving Kakashi's order to make arrangements.

On top of the hospital bed, Kakashi lay comfortably on the bed with his hands on the back of his head.

"The matter of Danzo has been settled, and it's time for the ninjas at the root to deal with it. Nowadays, I don't have much effort to spend on the roots, so I have to find someone who can subdue the roots. Zhishui is the best candidate, and it seems that it is time for Zhishui to return. However, if the water stops coming back, then it's almost time for the Itachi side to finish. ”

Kakashi kept thinking about it.

On the other side, somewhere in the land of earth.

It was rainy.

Itachi sat alone on the cliff and quietly looked at the city of Earth Country in the distance.

The Land of Earth, one of the Five Great Powers, has a completely different climate and environment from the Fire Country.

It's full of desolate rock faces.

It looks a little depressed.

Itachi didn't know what to think, and at this time, a tall figure jumped out of nowhere and landed in front of Itachi.

He was holding an exaggerated broadknife with bandages wrapped around it.

And above the big knife, there is an old man with red hair.

"Have you finished catching the four tails? Oni shark, I told you to be gentle with the elderly. ”

"This is not an ordinary old man, I can't kill him if I control my strength, this is already my limit." The ghost shark said with its shark teeth open.

"Forget it, go back to the leader and seal it." After that, Itachi turned and left.

The oni shark didn't care, and walked after the Itachi.

In a cave.

Payne's image emerged, followed by the giant Outer Golem.

The seal began again, but only six of those ten fingers remained.

Payne, Xiaonan, Oni Shark, Itachi, Obito, Jue.

"There are really fewer and fewer people." The ghost shark chuckled.

"Ah, what the ghost shark senior said is true, but it doesn't matter if there are few people, everyone else is very powerful. Hahaha. Obito said funny.

The oni shark glanced at Obito and did not answer.

Itachi looked at Obito, what was hidden beneath the yellow spiral mask.

Why did this man, who claimed to be Madara Uchiha, disguise himself like this?

If I can solve him, maybe I can go back to the village sooner, right?

Itachi's gaze caught Obito's attention.

The chakra under the mask looked back.

Itachi looked away faintly.

Obito under the mask frowned slightly, this guy is really uneasy.

Three days later, the seal was completed.

Payne's indifferent voice rang out.

"The Tailed Beasts have already sealed four of them, and the five Taileds were captured by him before Deidara died, and we will seal them together in a few days. I personally shot at the six tails, and the seven tails were handed over to Ah Fei and Jue. As for the Eight-Tails ......"

Payne looked at Itachi and Oni Shark and said, "The Eight Tails will be handed over to you." ”

"Eight-tails? The boss is really good to us, and he must be a very good opponent. The ghost shark said with some excitement.

Itachi, however, did not say a word.
