"Katsuragi!"

But at this moment, Hinata and the others ran back in a panic and said to Katsuragi, "There is a team of sand ninja coming in this direction, a total of twelve people. ”

"Sha Yin!?"

Katsuragi frowned slightly, wondering in his heart if the movement of the previous battle with Orochimaru was noticed, but it immediately felt unlikely, they walked for an afternoon, although the speed was not fast, but it was not enough to meet the investigator until now.

"How far is it?" Katsuragi asked as he looked up at Hinata.

"About five kilometers, it's fast."

"Hide first and see what their goal is."

Although he didn't feel that the other party could cause trouble to him, Katsuragi didn't want to make trouble, so if he couldn't meet, it was best not to meet.

Perhaps because the other party was very familiar with the desert, the distance of five kilometers had been passed in the blink of an eye, and when they passed the location of the cave where Katsuragi had rested before, Katsuragi, who had been observing with Hinata Reincarnation, noticed that they had suddenly stopped.

"Has it been discovered!?"

Katsuragi thought about it, although he had been traveling for a long time, he still didn't have that much experience in erasing traces, and because of the speed of the other party, he didn't handle it very well, so if he was an experienced ninja, he should be able to find that someone had been here before.

As Katsuragi thought, the group of Sand Hidden Ninjas did spot the traces they left behind, and also deduced that Katsuragi had just left.

"Chiyo-sama, could it be them?"

In the middle of the sand, a ninja asked an old man with a wrinkled face and an old man.

"Not sure."

The old man Chiyo in the man's mouth shook his head, pondered for a while, and then ordered: "Repair here first, you send a team of people to investigate the surrounding area, the other party should not have gone far, if you find the enemy, remember not to fall in love." ”

"Yes!"

The man did as he was commanded and began to give orders.

……

"They seem to be going to stop, and they've sent three teams to search the area." Hinata, who had been observing, reported the situation to Katsuragi.

"This group of people..."

Gui Mu's brows furrowed even deeper, he thought it was an important task to see the other party's travel speed, but he didn't expect them to stop, although he was in a hurry at night, but it was not convenient after all.

"What is the strength of the other party, can you see it?"

Katsuragi asked again at Hinata.

"They all look strong, they should be almost all middle and upper ninja."

Listening to Hinata's words, Katsuragi pondered for a while, then turned to Naruto and asked, "Naruto, you and Jiraiya-sama have been in the sand before, they should know you, right?" ”

"Huh!?" Naruto scratched his head and replied with a confused expression, "I don't know, but if I'm here in Luo, I'm sure he knows me." ”

"Forget it, let's go over and see the situation first."

Helpless, Katsuragi rolled his eyes and decided to go over to see the other party's situation, originally he thought that the other party would continue to move forward, so he left the place just now, since the other party stopped, he didn't want to rush at night, so he could only meet the other party.

When Tsunade came, he had already confirmed that Katsuragi was the captain of this mission, so there was no objection from several people.

Meeting Katsuragi in the past was also well thought out, because of the matter of Orochimaru at the beginning, Konoha and Sha Yin are still in an alliance state now, unless there is something unsightly in Sha Yin, they should not do anything to them.

"Who?"

Because they didn't want to hide, they were discovered when Katsura was just getting close to the other party, and the sand and hidden people all took out kunai and looked at them vigilantly.

"We are Konoha ninjas."

Katsuragi first shouted loudly, and then walked in front of the sand hides, at this time he also saw the other party's appearance clearly, and when he saw the old dragon bell Chiyo, he was slightly stunned, he didn't expect her to be here.

"Konoha Ninja!?"

After seeing Guimu's forehead guard clearly, although the Shayin people relaxed a little, they still did not let down their vigilance, and asked Guimu with fierce eyes, "What are you doing here?" ”

"Catch the traitor."

Katsuragi gestured to Sasuke, who was bound by vines beside him.

"It's Konoha imps!"

At this time, Chiyo walked over, first carefully looked at Katsuragi and Sasuke, and then was slightly stunned when he saw Hinata's eyes, and suddenly asked, "What are your names?" ”

"Under the bird tour Katsuragi."

Only Katsuragi told Chiyo his name, and several others were instructed by Katsuragi on the road not to speak.

"It's you..."

Hearing Katsuragi's name, Chiyo was stunned and looked straight at Katsuragi, as if he had heard Katsuragi's name.

Although I don't know why Chiyo reacted this way, Katsuragi still replied indifferently: "We were here to rest for a while just now, and I thought you would continue to move forward, so I left for a while." ”

"Judging by the disguised traces around us, you should have spotted us far away." When she said this, Chiyo looked at Hinata, although she didn't see that Hinata's eyes were white-eyed evolutionary, but among all the people, only Hinata's eyes were the most special.

"We're just going to rest here for a while and leave early tomorrow morning."

Katsuragi frowned, standing in front of Hinata, knowing that it would be better to wait for them here.

"Hmph, before I get angry, I'll give you a chance to leave now."

However, Katsuragi didn't want to make trouble, but Chiyo took the initiative to find trouble, and the scorpion's parents, who were Chiyo's son and daughter-in-law, were killed by Kakashi's father Hachiki Shuo Shigeru during the war, so it can be said that he is extremely disgusted with Konoha, and he is estimated to be patient if he doesn't do it directly.

"Huh!? This old woman..."

Naruto was furious when he heard this, and just wanted to come up and speak, but he was directly stopped by Katsuragi and said in a deep voice: "Shagakure and Konoha are allies, is Your Excellency doing this to provoke conflicts between the two villages?" ”

"Chiyo-sama......" Sha Yin on the side also looked at Chiyo anxiously, as if he didn't want Chiyo to continue talking like this, although Katsuragi They look young, but as long as a little wisdom people will not judge the strength by appearance.

"Does the little bird swim in Katsuragi!?" Looking at the subordinates on the side, Chiyo narrowed her already small eyes, and after muttering to herself, she spoke: "Don't get in the way of us, otherwise we will all make you puppets." ”

"Especially that short man with yellow hair, if you dare to call an old woman, I will be the first to kill you first."

"Hey, you...... Woowoo woo ......"

"Hey, I still use the chakra line to play with the puppet, compared to my Hinata, it's just weak, okay!" Although he wanted to say this, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Katsuragi didn't say it in the end.

Holding down Naruto, who wanted to be angry, Katsuragi led the four of them to a place in the cave and sat down, and began to quietly look at the group of sand hides, while guessing in his heart what they were here for.
