A week later, the land of grass.

"Oh, Sasuke, Sasuke, where the hell are you?"

In a tavern, Katsuragi sighed inwardly as he ate his food while thinking about where to look for Sasuke for a while.

"Have you heard? Something seems to have happened to Iwa Ninja Village lately! ”

"What's the matter?"

"It is said that someone killed the people of Iwa Ninja Village."

Not far from Katsunaki, the two grass ninja were chatting quietly while drinking wine, which made Katsuragi on the side couldn't help frowning.

He had heard about this when he first arrived in the country of grass, and now it is not unusual information, many people know about it, but no one knows who killed the person who killed the rock shinobi, except for Katsuragi, of course.

"Xiao, Xiao, what do you want to do!"

It can really be said that the house leak happened to rain overnight, and he was already worried about Sasuke's affairs, and now there is no need to rush to Iwa Ninja Village, because the four and five tails are no longer there.

If Guimu's prediction is good, they should be in Yuyin Village, which is not far from the country of grass, and as for whether they will live or die, this Katsuragi is not sure.

"My SSR-style god!"

Thinking of the reward for the Tailed Beast's achievement, Katsura Mu felt a burst of pain in his heart, he didn't expect Xiao to make such a move, maybe this situation was also related to him, although he hadn't done anything about the Tailed Beast, but he felt that Xiao was worried, if he really missed and killed the Tailed Beast, Xiao would be too late to regret it.

"But who got the news out so quickly?"

In fact, Gui Mu was still a little puzzled in his heart, he always felt that this matter was not quite right, if it was Xiao's shot, the news should not have spread so widely and so quickly, as if someone was deliberately spreading it.

"Deliberately..."

Katsura was suddenly stunned, he thought of a possibility, could this be Xiao leading him over, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was more likely, and he couldn't help but start thinking about the purpose of Xiao's doing.

"If it's really trying to lure me through, then it must have been Payne's idea."

Only Payne Katsuragi hasn't seen it in Akatsuki, and the rest of the people have basically fought once, although most of them haven't used their full strength to fight, but at least they have seen each other.

"Shall I go over then?"

Katsuragi was entangled, on the one hand, this might be a trap set by the other party, and on the other hand, it was the temptation of the reward of the two tailed beasts, which made him hesitate.

"It doesn't matter, it's a big deal."

After thinking about it, Katsuragi still decided to go to the Xiao organization to take a look at the situation, with his current Shikigami, even if he couldn't destroy all the members of Xiao, it would be enough to protect himself, but before that, he had to solve Sasuke's matter first.

"Kakashi-sensei, where the hell are you!"

Katsuragi lay on the table, sighing weakly, the food was tasteless, and after eating two bites, he put down his chopsticks and prepared to leave, even if he couldn't find Sasuke, even Kakashi didn't know where it was.

Time always passed quietly, and before he knew it, another three days had passed, and Katsuragi still hadn't found Kakashi, and there was no clue about Sasuke's whereabouts, which made him a little annoyed.

As the seasons changed, the weather became colder and colder, and this afternoon, snowflakes began to fall in the sky.

"Is it winter?"

Katsuragi caught a white snowflake with his hand, looking at the crystal clear hexagonal snowflake, Katsuragi was in a slightly better mood, affected by the Snow Girl's ability, he was very kind to the snow, and he didn't feel cold and uncomfortable.

This snow not only brought Katsuragi a good mood, but also brought him good luck, although he still didn't find Sasuke, but he later met Kakashi, as well as the Red and Hinata who accompanied him.

"Katsuragi!?"

Kakashi was most surprised by Katsuragi, and as for Red and Hinata, they had only seen each other before, and when they saw Katsuragi again, one was angry and the other was delighted.

"You stinky boy, you dared to run away before!"

Red looked at Katsuragi angrily, still thinking about what happened before, in fact, she also thought about whether Katsuragi would also come to the country of grass to find Sasuke, but she hadn't met it for so long, she thought that Katsuragi didn't come, who knew that she would only meet it at this time.

"Ahem." Katsuragi scratched his head, looking embarrassed, not knowing what to say.

"Teacher Hong, why did you escape?"

Ya and Shino looked at Red with a puzzled expression, the two left early at the time, and they didn't know about Katsuragi's return, and Red didn't tell them later, so the two of them didn't know what happened.

"Nothing." Red waved his hand and glared at Katsura fiercely, but he didn't say so much.

Kakashi knew what had happened before, and Hong also told him about Katsuragi in Yunyin Village, so after seeing Katsuragi, he was also a little happy in his heart, not to mention anything else, with Katsuragi here, at least he didn't have to worry about being inferior to the enemy anymore.

"Kakashi-sensei, long time no see."

Katsuragi greeted Kakashi, then looked at the tooth and said, "And the tooth, Shino, it's been a long time, Akamaru is so big!" ”

As he spoke, Katsuragi also touched Akamaru, who was lying on his teeth and looked a little discordant, and then looked at Hinata with a smile, although he didn't speak, but his gentle eyes had already said everything.

"Wangwang." Akamaru also replied, although Katsuragi didn't understand a little, but it should also mean greetings.

"Why are you here?" Kakashi looked at Katsuragi and asked, in fact, he knew in his heart that Katsuragi should also be here for Sasuke, and at this time he thought of Naruto, if Naruto also knew, he would definitely rush over like Katsuragi.

"I heard from Mr. Hong about Sasuke, so I thought I would come over and see if I could help." Katsuragi explained, then turned to Kakashi and asked, "Kakashi-sensei, what the hell is going on with Sasuke?" ”

"Who hurt you?"

"Orochimaru." Kakashi said in a deep voice, "If nothing is wrong, it was Orochimaru who captured Sasuke. ”

"Is it him?"

Katsuragi secretly said in his heart, except for Orochimaru, Katsuragi actually couldn't think of anyone else, but he didn't expect the plot to be like this, obviously it has changed so much, but things always seem to return to a trajectory.

"Is this the power of the inertia of the plot?"

Katsuragi suddenly guessed in his heart, but immediately shook his head again, putting aside this idea, no matter what kind of power it is, the most important situation at the moment is to find Sasuke first.

"I investigated that there is a secret base of Orochimaru here, he should have brought Sasuke here, but we haven't found it after looking for so long." Kakashi sighed, looking a little lost.

He didn't know that Orochimaru's forbidden technique had a three-year cooldown, thinking that after such a long time, Sasuke had already been used by Orochimaru to experiment or kill, so he felt a little guilty and guilty.

Trying to find Orochimaru's traces now is only a glimmer of hope.
