Konohamaru nodded slightly and swallowed hard. Just as he was about to follow his companion's advice, Chinatsu's voice rang in his ear again, "You're really not a man. The target of the mission was snatched away, and you didn't even dare to say a word."
Konohamaru couldn't stand being told that he was not a man, and he instantly became furious. He rushed towards Chinatsu in an effort to take the cat back. The result was self-evident, he was beaten up by Chinatsu for the sixty-third time.
Ten minutes later, in the Hokage's office.
Konohamaru, with a pig head on his head, stood with his teammates Moegi and Udon;
on the other side stood Chinatsu, who was in a good mood and smiling;
Ebisu stood between the two sides with a helpless look on his face. He was the grandson of the Third Hokage and the daughter of the Fifth Hokage. He couldn't afford to offend either side. As a special jonin, it was difficult for him.
Next to the Hokage's desk, the lost cat was held in the arms of a fat lady with tears in his eyes.
Tsunade, the Hokage, sat behind her desk, looking at the six people, feeling speechless.
"Thank you so much, Chinatsu. You are worthy of being the daughter of the Fifth Hokage. It turned out to be the right thing to ask you for help. It took me less than ten minutes to find Xiaohu." The fat lady praised Chinatsu.
"Auntie, as a Konoha ninja, this is my duty." Chinatsu said politely.
There was none of the coldness and cruelty just now.
How could this fat lady know that during the ten minutes or so that Chinatsu spent finding the cat for him, most of the time was spent beating Konohamaru.
"Auntie, you are such a polite girl. Well, Hokage, here is the reward, Tiger-chan, let's go home."
The fat lady smiled, and seemed very satisfied with Chinatsu's address. She left a purse, picked up the cat, and walked out of the Hokage's office.
"This is the reward for your mission. Come and collect it." Tsunade rolled her eyes at her smiling daughter and turned her head to look at Konohamaru and the other two.
Konohamaru and the other two looked at each other. Moegi pointed at herself in disbelief and asked Tsunade, "Um, Lady Tsunade, is it for us?"
"Of course, this D-rank mission to find the cat is assigned to you." Tsunade nodded.
"But we didn't catch the lost cat." Udon sniffed.
Tsunade stood up and sighed helplessly, "I know what kind of temper Chinatsu has. It's my daughter who has caused trouble for you. Here, I'll ask her to apologize to you."
"Hurry, Chinatsu, apologize to Konohamaru and the others." Tsunade said to Chinatsu.
Of course, Chinatsu refused to do this. Although she knew her mother's good intentions through mind reading, how could she be willing to apologize to someone who hated her father?
So I started thinking of excuses to change the subject a long time ago.
At this moment, Chinatsu suddenly felt that two familiar powerful chakras were approaching the village. She couldn't help but smile and uttered three words lightly, "I'm back."
"What's back?" Everyone looked at curiously.
"Uncle Jiraiya and Naruto are back. They are right at the entrance of the village." Chinatsu said seriously.
Suddenly, the huge Hokage office was in an uproar.
There was shock on everyone's face.
They were not only shocked that Naruto and Jiraiya returned, but more shocked at how Chinatsu knew about it.
Tsunade knew her daughter's personality, so she didn't force it. She took the opportunity to change the subject and explained to everyone, "Chinatsu is a perception-type ninja. She is born with the ability to perceive. She can sense chakra. It seems that Naruto and Jiraiya are really back."
Hearing this, Ebisu suddenly realized.
Konohamaru, Moegi, and Udon, three die-hard fans of Naruto, were so excited that they jumped out of the office window before even collecting their mission rewards. They quickly rushed towards the village entrance, and as they walked, they did not forget to inform passers-by and shouted in unison: "Brother Naruto is back."
"Hey, you guys." Seeing the three students running away like rabbits without even saying hello to the Hokage, Ebisu was exhausted and hurriedly apologized on behalf of Konohamaru and the other two.
Tsunade naturally wouldn't care about this.
After receiving the mission rewards from Konohamaru and the others, he walked out of the Hokage's office.
Finally, Tsunade and Chinatsu were the only ones left in the office.
The two looked at each other, and Tsunade wanted to blame her, but Chinatsu appeared behind her in an instant, pinching her shoulders and acting coquettishly, which made Tsunade lose her temper instantly.
"Well, Mom, you're not angry anymore, are you?" Qianxia blinked and said playfully.
"Hmm?" Tsunade nodded subconsciously, but out of motherly dignity, she immediately changed her tone to questioning, "Tell me, why do you always pick on Konohamaru?"
"Because of Dad." Chinatsu stopped massaging and said seriously.
"That guy..." Tsunade felt a headache when she thought of the feud between her little man and the Sarutobi family.
Sarutobi Mirai is better. She is kind by nature and has never wanted revenge.
But Konohamaru and Asuma Sarutobi are different. These two guys talk about killing Kirito every day.
If she continues like this, she will be killed by her own little man sooner or later.
She was very aware of her little man's strength, and with all his evil intentions, it was possible for him to not only kill Konohamaru and Asuma Sarutobi, but even destroy Konoha.
Not to mention that there is a person in the Akatsuki organization that even her own little man is "afraid" of.
As the Hokage of Konoha, with her own little man on one side and a Konoha ninja on the other, all she can do is prevent the two sides from conflicting and prevent her own little man from doing anything that would harm Konoha. This is already her limit.
The Land of Wind, Sand Village.
Gaara, who has become the Kazekage, is in the conference room, listening to reports from the Sunagakure senior officials.
"In recent years, the strength of our Sand Village has gradually stabilized, and exchanges with the ninja villages of our allies have also become more frequent."
"Especially in the training of newcomers, the effect of using the acting program education course introduced from Konoha Village is very significant. The emergence of many new Chunins in the Chunin Exam a while ago is the best proof of this."
"And then."
Makiro, the Sunagakure jonin who was once the teacher of Temari, Kankuro, and Gaara, said a lot of things in a long-winded way.
It was not until Yura, a spy under Sasori, mentioned Akatsuki that everyone's attention was drawn. "The Chunin Exam held some time ago was successful, but some bad rumors appeared."
"What is it? Yura?" Maki asked solemnly.
"Have you heard of the organization 'Akatsuki'?" Yura looked at Maki.
Although Yura was under the control of Sasori's ninjutsu, the Sand Manipulation, at this time, she did not know that she was a spy until the ninjutsu was lifted, and she still thought that she was a high-ranking ninja of the Sand Village.
