Autumn is high and cool, the cool breeze hits, and the slanting sun hangs high in the sky.

Sit or stand with a few friends who have been busy with the day's tasks, gather in front of the jungle at the back of the camp, and enjoy a rare leisure.

The yellow leaves are blown off the branches by the wind, swirling and flying in the air, falling to the rhizome of an unknown tree.

"More than three months have passed since Fang went on a mission. Before we knew it, it had been more than half a year since we left the village. ”

I don't know that Huo Genma sits on a raised tree root, letting the falling yellow leaves stick to his body, looking at the distant sky, with a little melancholy, like a poet who has touched his heart.

"Time flies."

Hong, who seemed to have grown a little taller, blinked her burgundy, jewel-like eyes, and stretched out her hand to stick to a falling yellow leaf, looking like a little person with deep emotion.

"It's autumn, and in a few months, everyone will basically add a year to themselves. I think the last time we gathered, Asma and Akai were still there. ”

Shizune leaned against the trunk of the tree, and her toes slid the withered yellow leaves that covered the ground, looking much more capable and mature.

"Hey, hey, don't talk about Asma and Ah Kai as if they're dead. People are just going on a mission and will come back. You say they're gone, so it's easy to misunderstand. ”

Inuzuka sat on a low branch, swinging his legs leisurely, his focus always on the edge and the oddity.

"Only Fang will you be mistaken!"

Angrily raised his head and glared at Inuzuka Fang, and silently puffed out Bai Yu's flawless cheeks, feeling that after Inuzuka Fang came back from this mission, he changed a lot, but I can't tell what kind of feeling it is.

"You guy, you've become a shinobi quietly, why do you feel more unreliable!"

Standing on the same front of Mute for the first time, Hong frowned slightly and began to criticize Inuzuka Fang.

"Poof~Take!"

Spit out the thousand books in his mouth, pierced three or four withered yellow leaves in a row, and finally pierced an unknown nut that had fallen, and fixed them all to death on the trunk of the tree.

I don't know that Genma slapped his ass and stood up.

"Ah Kai actively chose to mobilize to the fog ninja front, which is more suitable for the lower ninja battle. Asma and Red Bean are also completing the promotion task of the middle ninja assessment. We've fallen behind enough to be in the mood to continue wasting time here, so now that we've met, I'll go first. ”

One last glance at the inuzuka fang on the tree, I didn't know that I patted my buttocks and walked away on my own.

"Quietly, I became the youngest shinobi ever, and I was really angry when I looked at it. Obviously, we all graduated together, why are we so much worse? Genma is right, don't waste time here, let's go on mute. ”

Red pulled the silence, glared at the leisurely Inuzuka Fang, and followed.

A good reunion of friends after a long absence, and it ended in such a hurry.

"Tsk, is this my fault?"

Watching the stimulated little friends go away together, Inuzuka shrugged his shoulders disapprovingly, and his eyes fell to the point where he had been standing a little farther away. Hinata, who stands outside the circle.

"Filial piety, aren't you going, hurry up and work hard to endure it."

Shaking off the dead leaves hanging on his body, Hinata Takashi took a few steps closer and came to Inuzuka Fang, he looked up, his eyes flashed, and some people couldn't understand it.

"Tokuma and the two of them have joined the Shadows."

There was a hint of depression in some of the deep voices, and Hinata Takashi didn't mean to be happy for the two clansmen.

"The Shadows? Isn't that good, at least a department that requires the strength of the elite to enter? ”

It's a bit strange that Hinata Xiaoran's appearance is gloomy.,It's a happy thing to join the shadows.,How can you be so unhappy? Wait, it's not going to be that dark part.

"What they entered was the dark part of Lord Tuanzang, and it was the root."

Hinata Takashi became more and more depressed, looked deeply at Inuzuka Fang, who said congratulations and said congratulations, and also strode away.

"Tsk, that's interesting."

A party dispersed in a hurry, some less joyful.

Looking at the distance on the Kikyo Mountain, the withered yellow of the mountain soil, the inuzuka fangs snorted.

Unexpectedly, Hyuga Tokuma and Hyuga Huomen were two of them, and they actually had the ruthlessness to join the dark department of the group.

I just don't know if they went in to break free from the caged bird or to scare me.

Hawkers, it doesn't matter, since you can't be friends, you're destined to be a little person who doesn't need attention. I don't believe that with the help of Tuanzang, you can surpass me.

"Woohoo, woohoo!

Shiramaru, who felt bored with the party and ran to play alone, screamed happily, carrying yellow leaves covered in her body, and ran out of the woods, her cry was a little strange, as if she was blocked by something.

"What are you holding in your mouth, damn it, it's actually a mouse, throw it away quickly, it's dirty, don't come here!"

"Woo woo woo woo ~ "

"Shiramaru, you guy, stop, don't come. I don't want rats, I'm still alive when I go. ”

The chickens and dogs jumped to dodge and scold the white pill who was dedicated to the earnest, and Inuzuka Fang was a little embarrassed to be chased for a while.

"Stupid, don't drink the water you brush your teeth to, open your mouth."

As night fell, after washing up with a layer of skin, Inuzuka Fang took a brush and brushed Shiramaru's teeth angrily.

"Woohoo~"

Shiramaru shook his head and shook his body, not only did he not cooperate at all, but also shook Inuzuka Fang all over the water.

"Ah, I just washed it, Shiramaru, you guy, you're really getting skinny, look at me to clean you up today!"

"Wang, woo, woo~"

One person and one dog, and suddenly it was a mess again.

"Fang, come with me, Orochimaru-sama wants to see you."

is making a lot of fun, I don't want anyone to come uninvited, and I don't know how to interrupt the interaction between the owner and the pet.

"It's Sanshan senior, it's so late, is there anything wrong with Shi Jiang looking for me?"

The person who came was Sanshanyan, who had not been seen for a long time, and he looked more and more ordinary and old after half a year of battlefield tempering, and his original dark and fine sideburns had become a little white.

"Shi-chan?!"

Listening to Inuzuka Fang blurt out the name, Sanshanyan's eyes bulged.

You dare to call it out, it's too bold! That's Lord Orochimaru, although it's your master, it's right, but that's Lengjun Orochimaru! Is it really good that you call it that?

"Hey, it's just a heartfelt honorific title for the teacher, seniors, don't care too much. What is the matter with Shi Chan looking for me? ”

From the bottom of my heart? Control your expression when you dare to say this! I believe you have ghosts.

"I'm too lazy to care about you. Come with me, I'll take you to meet Orochimaru-sama, and as for what's going on, you'll know when you get there. ”

Hard Bangbang dropped a sentence, and Sanshanyan turned around and left, as if he was afraid that he couldn't help but think about Inuzuka Fang if he stayed any longer.

"It's a bit of a surprise, Sanshanyan senior, I found your secret. Let's go, Shiramaru, I'll take you to meet my Shi-chan. ”

When the business came, he naturally didn't care about playing with Shiramaru anymore, wiped the water droplets on his face, slapped a handful of white outside, and Inuzuka Fang quickly walked out of the camp and followed the Sanshan Rock that had already gone away.

Watching Sanshan Rock lead the way to the remote part of the camp, and finally handing over to a silent side gate guard hidden in the darkness without lights, Inuzuka's mind gradually became calmer.

This is to get out of the camp, Uncle Snake is not in the camp, he runs outside at night...... Tsk, it's a secret research base, it's going to catch me off guard.

Wearing the stars and the moon, only the sound of footsteps rises and falls in the silence.

"It's three mountains, open the door and let it go."

"Click, squeak~yah—"

Watching Sanshanyan negotiate all the way, leading the way to a hidden valley, and finally entering a passage where the lights went straight underground, Inuzuka Fang had a hint of abruptness.

"I didn't expect that Sanshan's seniors would be subordinates loyal to Shi-chan."

This explains very well what happened to the graduation exam. No wonder that the time will come into play.

But now, there is no point in pursuing this kind of thing.

"Orochimaru-sama is waiting for you down there. Go in yourself. ”

With an ordinary and more old face, Sanshanyan has no nonsense.

"Woo~"

Looking at the endless firelight and the passage with no end in sight, Shiramaru was a little restless, as if he felt something.

"Let's go, Shiramaru, go see Shi-chan."

Rubbing Shiramaru's head to soothe her uneasiness, Inuzuka Fang strode down the stairs.
