The True Occupation of the Third Kazekage!

Walking out from behind the tree, Uchiha Shisui looked at the corpses on the ground with astonishment.

It was the first time he saw the power of grenades.

Hideichi Hoshita was very satisfied with the first battle of the grenade, and smiled and said: "It's a small design, Shisui, you will know it later."

Uchiha Shisui immediately understood, nodded and did not ask any more questions.

Stepping forward, Hideichi Hoshita opened his mouth and a huge fireball enveloped and ignited all the corpses.

With his chakra, although he could not melt those iron beads, it was enough to destroy the traces of the battlefield, making it impossible for people to see the mystery of the grenade.

After doing all this, Hideichi Hoshita and Uchiha Shisui turned around and chased Kurama Sanyo.

10 minutes later.

Hideichi Hoshita and the others met up with Kurama Sanyo and the others, and returned the same way. After entering the Land of Fire, they were met by a team of Anbu.

Unlike Sarutobi Shinnosuke before, all the members of this Anbu team wore animal masks.

If you are not familiar with them, it is difficult to distinguish their identities.

And these people did not talk to Shuichi Hoshita and the others, but were distributed on the periphery to protect Shuichi Hoshita and the other four.

Uchiha Shisui and Kurama Sanyo took the time to rest, Shuichi Hoshita ate another soldier pill, and then continued to treat the injuries of Haneda Koichi.

His palm fairy technique is not very proficient, and it will take a longer time for the deep wounds on Haneda Koichi to heal, which means more chakra will be consumed.

As for Namikaze Minato and Sarutobi Shinnosuke, Shuichi Hoshita did not know the specific strength of the latter, but he believed in Namikaze Minato and Flying Thunder God.

Time passed little by little.

An hour later, those Anbu ninjas suddenly moved, and two of them went west.

Hoshita Shuichi and Uchiha Shisui looked at each other, both showing joy.

Sure enough, it wasn't long before Namikaze Minato appeared in everyone's sight.

"Teacher Minato!"

Hoshita Shuichi and the other two went to meet him.

Namakaze Minato smiled and said, "You completed this mission very well."

Sarutobi Shinnosuke also came over after handing over to the Anbu team, and said to Hoshita Shuichi: "Sorry, Shuichi, you didn't bring your kunai back."

Hoshita Shuichi quickly said something nice after hearing this: "Ninja tools are only consumables, but companions are not."

This sentence made everyone look sideways. When Namikaze Minato and the others were secretly thinking about it, Kurama Sanyo had already shouted excitedly: "Shuichi is right!"

Sarutobi Shinnosuke also nodded in appreciation, feeling from the bottom of his heart that his father had not made a mistake in choosing him.

Namikaze Minato patted Shuichi Hoshita on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You all did a good job. Let's take a rest first, and then we can set off to return to Konoha."

Shuichi Hoshita and the other two nodded one after another. They really needed to rest.

However, after handing over to Sarutobi Shinnosuke, the Anbu team took Haneda Koichi back to Konoha first.

In the woods, while taking a break, Kurama Sanyo couldn't help asking: "Teacher Minato, is it the Sand Ninja?"

Namikaze Minato glanced at Sarutobi Shinnosuke, then nodded: "It's the Sand Ninja."

"It's related to our last mission. There are signs that the Sand Ninja and Hanzo are joining forces, and it's because of the River Country."

Uchiha Shisui asked hurriedly: "Teacher Minato, are the Sand Ninjas going to join forces with the Rain Ninjas to compete with us for the River Country?"

"If so, what's the benefit for the Sand Ninjas? Even if they join forces with the Rain Ninjas to take over the River Country, the benefits need to be distributed."

Namikaze Minato nodded: "Shisui, your analysis is correct, but the Sand Ninjas have the upper hand against the Rain Ninjas, but are at a disadvantage against our Konoha."

"Secondly, the River Country did not fall to our Konoha."

What?

Uchiha Shisui and Kurama Sanyo were both stunned and couldn't understand.

After all, the evidence of the last mission was complete. Could the Daimyo of the River Country turn a blind eye to the evil deeds of the Sand Ninja?

Hideichi Hoshita thought: "Teacher Minato, there should be more than just a competition for the number of missions in the River Country, right?"

Sarutobi Shinnosuke was surprised, but Minato Namikaze smiled and said: "As expected of Xiuyi."

"And..."

Hideichi Hoshita looked at Uchiha Shisui and Kurama Sanyo: "For the Daimyo of the River Country, that village is actually irrelevant."

"Being caught between the big countries, the best state is to swing left and right and get benefits, rather than completely surrender to one side, unless that side has absolute strength."

Having said that, Hideichi Hoshita doubted whether there was anything to do with Danzo.

It's not that he is blackening Danzo, but that this guy is a radical.

Sarutobi Hiruzen gave the dirty work to Danzo, and at the same time gave Danzo the opportunity to accumulate his own strength and ambition.

Did Danzo throw the evidence in front of the Daimyo of the River Country in the last incident of the village, and then persuade the Daimyo of the River Country to completely abandon the Sand Ninja in a friendly manner?

Now, Shuichi Hoshita believes that Danzo will use a tough attitude to force the River Country.

Even, with malicious speculation, will Danzo intentionally use this to provoke disputes?

…

After listening to Shuichi Hoshita's words, Uchiha Shisui fell into deep thought, while Kurama Sanyo was puzzled.

He doesn't understand politics.

Shuichi Hoshita doesn't understand it very well, but he understands a little.

After resting for about two hours, Shuichi Hoshita and his group of five set off to return to Konoha. It was already night when they arrived.

After handing in the mission at the Hokage Building, Minato Namikaze announced a three-day vacation.

After disbanding and going home, Shuichi Hoshita first took a beautiful bath, and then went out for a big meal.

When he came out of the hotel, he happened to see Tianyun in a kimono. Her soft figure was pleasing to the eye, so he stepped forward immediately: "Sister Tianyun!"

Tianyun turned around and looked at Xingxia Xiuyi with surprise: "Xiuyi, didn't you say it would take half a month?"

Xingxia Xiuyi smiled and said: "The mission is over ahead of schedule."

He looked up and down at the curvy Tianyun and joked: "Sister Tianyun is dressed so beautifully, are you going on a blind date?"

Tianyun's face flushed, and then she snorted: "Am I someone who needs a blind date?"

Then she said: "I came out with my sister, who is about to get engaged."

Sister?

Engagement?

It was the first time that Xingxia Xiuyi knew that Tianyun had a sister, and he smiled and congratulated her.

Tianyun put his arm around Xingxia Xiuyi's shoulders and said, "If you are in the village, you must come as a distinguished guest of our family."

Xingxia Xiuyi agreed immediately. He didn't mind getting closer to Tianyun's family.

…

After returning home, Xingxia Xiuyi threw the bags on the ground and fell directly on the sofa: "Sure enough, no matter where you are, shopping with women is the most tiring."

After accompanying Tianyun for an hour, he felt more tired than performing a mission.

But Tianyun also bought him a lot of things.

Clothes, shoes, magatama pendants, etc.

After a rest, Xingxia Xiuyi packed up the things Tianyun sent and fell asleep.

Go to bed early today and start a three-day intensive training tomorrow.

As for the holiday?

Not exist!

However, when Xingxia Xiuyi fell asleep beautifully, the Hokage Building was still brightly lit.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, Danzo, Utane Koharu, and Mitomon En gathered together at this moment.

"Danzo, you shouldn't force the River Country like that, after all, it is the daimyo."

Mitomon En complained.

Danzo said lightly: "But the facts have proved that our methods are still too weak."

"The Third Kazekage can help the River Country find iron ore, and it is inevitable that the River Country will turn to the Sand Ninja."

"Unless we let the River Country daimyo know that without Konoha, they can't mine iron ore with peace of mind."

"You know, there are many ninja organizations in the Rain Country now. Since the Sand Ninja and the Rain Ninja can hire them to deal with us, it is natural for these ninja organizations to enter the River Country."

"So, it is not difficult to completely solve this matter."

Tanane Koharu said: "What Danzo said makes sense. Now is not the time to talk about who is responsible."

She looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen: "Hiruzen, what are you going to do about this matter?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen exhaled a puff of smoke and said in a deep voice: "The mission of the River Country must not be lost."

"In addition, Hanzo and the Sand Ninja must not be allowed to join forces."

"Danzo, let the Root be responsible for this matter."

Although he was a little disappointed, Danzo still nodded in agreement.

Sarutobi Hiruzen pondered: "As for the cooperation between the River Country and the Sand Ninja, I will let Sakumo investigate this matter clearly."
