In the trunk of the tree, half of the head of the black and white Jedi poked out, carefully observing the battle not far away.

"Oh, we seem to have made a monster." Seeing that Nagato had such a terrifying injury with just a casual blow, Bai Jue opened his mouth in surprise.

"The Stone of Grell not only replenishes the deficit of his life energy, but also further stimulates the recovery of the eye of reincarnation." Hei Jue's single eye also flashed a trace of solemnity, which was not within the scope of the plan.

"Can Ah Fei handle it?"

「…… I don't know."

Tiandao Payne jumped to the side of his companion and glanced at her, Xiao Nan suddenly understood, his white wings waved, and he quickly flew away from the battlefield.

"Huh?" Darui looked at this scene, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, but without giving him a chance to think, Heavenly Dao Payne raised his right hand.

"Again?!" Without the slightest hesitation, he turned around and ran.

"HRE!"

Bang!

Darui leapt into a hole, and a large amount of dirt, rubble, and stumps rushed in and buried him in it.

"Won't it be solved directly?" Xiao Nan turned his head to look at the chasing Heavenly Dao Payne.

"There's no need, we're targeting tailed beasts." Heavenly Dao Payne shook his head, "Instead of wasting time on him, it's better to hurry up and extract the Tailed Beast Chakra."

……

Dumb~

Several vultures hovered above, vigilantly watching the creatures below, and from their thin bodies, they felt the fear that came from the source of life.

It was a creature lower down the food chain, facing the instinctive fear of apex predators.

"I probably know why the Akatsuki organization tricked you here." Looking at Sasuke, who was gathering the remains, Naruto suddenly spoke.

Boom!

Sasuke Uchiha's hands quickly sealed, and he collected his companion's body into the scroll, turning his head to look at him.

"Yugi Man? Or is it someone else?"

The only one who can know that the organization is so aggressive is the human pillar force, or the tailed beast.

"It's Yugito." Naruto nodded slightly, "Just now, the leader of the Akatsuki organization personally took action, and she has been arrested."

"Where?"

"It's in the land of grass."

Uchiha Sasuke fell into deep thought, since the establishment of the Akatsuki organization, they have become the pillars of the five hidden villages active on the big stage of the ninja world, and most of the targets of the cleanup are some underground organizations that are extremely evil and inconvenient for a single ninja village to clean up.

But except for the high-level leaders of the Five Shadows and the Five Great Hidden Villages, few people know that since the establishment of their ninja team, they have been given a top-secret task by the Five Shadows Conference - to clear the Xiao organization.

And the Xiao organization is indeed the focus of their work this year, but for some reason, the Xiao organization, which is not much active, has strangely chosen to hibernate.

Coupled with Bai Jue's imperceptible reconnaissance ability, the difficulty of their mission has skyrocketed.

was lucky enough to catch the tail of the Xiao organization several times, but Bai Jue learned the information in advance and avoided the past.

"Naruto, is there something wrong with the chakra source around?" Sasuke asked.

The lag in intelligence directly led him to be led by the nose, which made him very unhappy.

Ordinary reconnaissance ninjutsu can't find any trace of Bai Jue.

He knew that Naruto possessed the malevolent perception ability unique to the Nine-Tails Pillar Force, so he pinned his hopes on this, hoping to get some unexpected gains.

Naruto felt it carefully and shook his head slightly.

"Is it because you know Naruto's ability to dodge in advance?"

Sasuke Uchiha thought to himself.

Bai Jue's existence was told to him by his brother, and if he really relied on the intelligence system of the Five Hidden Villages, he might not be able to detect the existence of this guy.

Well?

Naruto's expression moved slightly.

"How's it going?" Thinking that he had sensed something, Sasuke Uchiha hurriedly asked.

"It's my own private matter." Naruto Station

Standing up, "I may need to go to Konoha for a trip, do you want to come along?"

"No, I still have something to attend to."

Naruto nodded slightly, feeling the Flying Thunder God Technique in the direction of Konoha and disappearing in place.

Konoha Hidden Village.

Shikamaru was lying on the lawn, looking up boredly at the white clouds in the sky, when a dark shadow suddenly obscured his vision.

"It's finally over." He stood up with a carp, "Daddy, how did it turn out?"

"The upper ninjas have already voted to start running for the sixth Hokage candidate in three months." Nara Shikaku nodded and said.

"Passed the first time? I thought I'd have to fight a few times?"

"There's no way, the Konoha Collapse Plan launched by Sand Hide has already made us taste the bitter fruit of not having a Hokage candidate."

Shikamaru remembered the various open and secret battles of the real power faction at that time, and nodded slightly, if it wasn't for Tsunade-sama standing up at the last moment, I'm afraid that the fifth Hokage would have fallen into the hands of Shimura Danzo.

It is not ruled out that after Shimura Danzo took power, it is possible that Konoha will develop better than now.

But compared to Tsunade-sama, who has a more sunny style, I'm afraid that few people in Konoha will like the cold Shimura Danzo.

"Jiraiya-sama elected Sasuke Uchiha, and Inuzuka, Sarutobi, and Shimura joined forces to promote Kakashi."

"The two places are basically set." Shikamaru bit his nails, "There's still one spot left."

"How do we push Naruto up?"

"The final spot will be decided at the next Shangnin meeting, and we still have time to help Naruto's momentum."

Compared to him, Nara Shikaku's expression seemed much more relaxed, as if he already had a plan in his heart.

"Compared to this, did you inform Naruto?"

"At his pace, it should be almost there." Shikamaru estimated the time, and announced it in the morning, according to the speed of that guy, it is estimated that it will not be long.

"Hmm."

Nara Lujiu nodded, although his son was a little lazy, he was quite relieved to get things done.

"Wait a minute, explain the situation to Naruto first, and I'll try to get things done before dinner."

"I'll talk about the details later."

Shikamaru nodded, and after his father's figure disappeared from sight, he lay down on the lawn again.

This kind of leisurely time is extremely rare.

Watching one white cloud after another drift over his head, his thoughts gradually drifted away.

Sometimes, he really envied the white clouds, who could float in the sky carefree every day, without one task after another, and never finish the task on his body.

There is no need to consider the responsibilities of the middle ninja, and the arrangement of the family's promotion to the upper ninja.

Envy......

"Got a sweetheart?" Looking at the longing on his face, Naruto asked suspiciously.

Shikamaru hurriedly got up from the ground, but suddenly reacted that he hadn't done anything unseemly, why was he so scared, and lay back on the lawn.

"Less than two hours, where were you before?"

Looking at the time, Shikamaru asked.

"The Land of Birds." Naruto replied.

"Stronger again......

Shikamaru was speechless, how could the growth of strength be put on this guy, as easy as eating and drinking?

"The campaign of the six Hokage has begun...... "He explained the reasons for the incident.
