"That's right..."

Jiraiya didn't ask for too much after hearing it, he knew that Katsuragi didn't want Hinata to be in danger, so he didn't say anything, nodded and thanked him: "Thank you very much." ”

Three days passed in a flash, and Katsuragi spent three days learning the unsealing technique taught by Jiraiya, in fact, this unsealing technique is not too difficult, and it is even more fantastical to completely unlock Naruto's nine-tailed seal with this one, at most only a small part of the seal can be released, with previous experience, Zilai is not at ease to unlock too many seals.

After teaching the technique, Jiraiya left the village and began to investigate Akatsuki's whereabouts, as for Naruto, he has been recuperating in the hospital for the past few days, and after this battle, he can barely borrow a little of the power of the Nine-Tails, but he can't even condense the tail and tailed beast coat.

"Morning!"

Coming to the hospital, looking at Naruto who was listless in the hospital bed, Katsuragi accompanied Sakura over and said hello with a smile, Jiraiya had been away from Konoha for two days, but in view of Tsunade's strong request, Naruto could only continue to stay in the hospital for observation.

"Katsuragi! Sakura! ”

Seeing the two of them, Naruto immediately came to his senses, looked at Sakura with a pleading face and said, "Sakura-chan, I'm really fine, just let me be discharged." ”

"The master asked me to come over and check on you, and if it's okay, you can be discharged from the hospital."

Looking at Naruto's pitiful appearance, Sakura couldn't help but smile and replied.

"Really? Then come and check. ”

Naruto immediately lay down on the hospital bed excitedly, urging Sakura to come and check it out.

After checking Naruto's body, Sakura summed it up and said, "Well, the body is basically fully recovered. ”

"Then I don't have to stay here anymore!" Hearing Sakura's words, Naruto immediately asked with an excited face.

"Hmm!"

"yes, that's great." Naruto jumped out of the hospital bed with a leap, he was almost suffocated in the hospital during this time, and if it weren't for Tsunade's threat to beat him seriously if he dared to escape, he would have snuck away.

Looking at Naruto's excited appearance, Katsuragi and Sakura looked at each other, with some helplessness in their eyes, after so much time, Naruto's personality seemed to be the same as it was at the beginning, and nothing had changed.

"Okay, hurry up and change your clothes, Tsunade-sama said that if it's okay, let's go over together." After a while, seeing that Naruto was still there happily and couldn't stop, Katsuragi urged.

"Huh!? Got a task? ”

Naruto immediately turned his head to look at Katsuragi and asked in surprise.

"I don't know, but it should be." Katsuragi shook his head, he was called over by Sakura, saying that Tsunade was going to summon him and Naruto over.

"Let's go!"

As soon as he heard that there seemed to be a mission, the nervous Naruto couldn't wait to set off, but before he reached the door, he was dragged by Katsuragi with a helpless face and reminded: "Clothes..."

Naruto, who was in a hurry to change his clothes, came to the Hokage's office with Katsuragi and Sakura, and as soon as he entered the door, Katsuragi saw Tsunade frowning there, looking bored.

"Hokage-ma..."

"Bang"

After Naruto, who had just left the hospital and was still excited, entered the office, he rushed in to say hello, but before he could say anything, he was directly hit by a pen thrown by Tsunade, and he squatted down and hugged his head and cried out in pain.

"Tsunade-sama!"

"Master!"

Katsuragi and Sakura wordlessly walked past Naruto and said hello.

"You're here." Tsunade glanced at Naruto, who was shouting on the side, looked at Katsuragi and Sakura, and said straight to the point, "I want to send a few of you to do a mission." ”

"About Sasuke!"

As soon as these words came out, the three of them were stunned, and Naruto hurriedly stood up from the ground and asked Tsunade, "Hokage... My lord, what's going on? You said it was about Sasuke's mission? ”

"Hmm."

Looking at Katsuragi and Sakura, who were confused, Tsunade exhaled lightly and said to the three of them, "I received a letter last night that said, 'Sasuke is in danger'. ”

"A letter!?"

Katsuragi looked at Tsunade in surprise.

Tsunade picked up the paper on the table and handed it over, Katsuragi looked at the white paper, there was indeed only this sentence on it, he thought for a moment and asked, "How did you receive this letter?" ”

"Sent by the shadows, he said he saw a black crow, and then he didn't know it."

"Raven!?"

Katsuragi's eyes froze, and he instantly thought of a person, and couldn't help but look at Tsunade, and found that she nodded and said, "I checked him, and there are indeed signs of being controlled by illusions." ”

"Itachi Uchiha?"

Katsuragi muttered to himself, Itachi's feelings for Sasuke can be said to be incomparable to everyone, for Sasuke, Itachi sacrificed his family and sacrificed himself, so he won't let Sasuke die like this.

"If nothing else, it should be him."

Tsunade and Katsuragi thought the same, guessing that this letter was sent by Itachi, of course, this could also be a conspiracy of other people, but there are not many people in the ninja world who have this kind of illusion, and Itachi is the most suspicious.

"So you're trying to get us to look into this?"

Katsuragi came back to his senses and looked at Naruto and Sakura, who were silent next to him, and asked Tsunade.

"Hmm." Tsunade nodded, looked at Katsuragi and said, "Now that Hinata's problem is solved, you don't have any worries, and I have also checked Hanabi's eyes, and there won't be much change in a short period of time, so you don't have to worry." ”

"The two of them would definitely sneak out if you were to go on your own, so I want you to take the two of them to investigate one more time."

As he spoke, Tsunade looked at Naruto and Sakura, if they knew about it, with the personalities of the two of them, they really wouldn't be able to stay in Konoha safely.

"Hmm, okay."

Katsuragi nodded without too much hesitation and agreed, Enma did his best for him in Hinata's matter, just hoping that he would solve the matter of Orochimaru as soon as possible, so he wanted to take this opportunity to solve Orochimaru together.

"What about the two of you?"

Tsunade was slightly surprised to see Katsuragi readily agree, and then turned his head to look at Sakura and Naruto, who had been silent.

"Division... Master..."

Sakura looked up at Katsuragi, then asked with a hesitant expression, "What if... If Sasuke is caught, you... Are you going to... What to do with him..."

Looking at Sakura's appearance, Tsunade frowned slightly, and replied in a deep voice, "I'll talk about this matter when you bring him back!" ”

"Oh."

A trace of worry flashed on Sakura's face, although she didn't know Katsuragi's specific strength, but she had heard Tsunade say that Katsuragi was basically the strongest existence in the ninja world now, so as long as she could find Sasuke this time, she should be able to complete it, so she was worried about what kind of punishment Sasuke would receive if he was brought back.

"That stinky fart..."

Naruto gritted his teeth and clenched his fists and said fiercely, "I must beat him up this time." ”

Ignoring the scrappy Naruto, Katsuragi turned to Tsunade and asked, "Is it just the three of us?" Kakashi-sensei......"

"He has other tasks, just the three of you!"

Tsunade replied, in fact, this task can be completed by Katsuragi alone, if it weren't for the worry that Naruto and Sakura would make some trouble, she didn't want Katsuragi to take the two of them.

Although Kakashi also has deep feelings for Sasuke, he is a shinobi, much more mature than Sakura and Naruto, and knowing that Katsuragi is also gone, there should be nothing wrong.
