Not that problem.
Not the mask problem.
"What?".
Hozuki Mangetsu was a little confused as he looked at Hatake Satoru. If it wasn't that problem, what other problem was there related to the mask?
Hatake Satoru blinked his beautiful big eyes innocently, his silver-white eyelashes fluttering, revealing a naive look.
"The rope, it fell over there~".
"Just a rope... Huh!? It fell over there!?"
Hozuki Mangetsu didn't react for a moment. It was just a spare rope that fell. It wasn't anything important, so it was fine, right?
Then he realized that Hatake Satoru was using this expression and this tone, likely saying that he dropped the rope in the forest.
"Wouldn't it be easy to tell who it was then?".
Hatake Satoru always carried that rope with him, so it must have his scent on it.
If the people searching later brought ninja dogs, there's no doubt they would find his thing.
Although it wouldn't necessarily lead to them being found right away, it felt like he left a handle there.
And that smart kid who came later would probably find that thing right away.
It was also a red rope.
"Should we... go back and look for it?".
Hozuki Mangetsu looked hesitantly at Hatake Satoru. Although going back would be a bit of a hassle, with the teacher's ability, going back wouldn't be too difficult, right?
It would be more reassuring to go back and clean up the evidence.
Only Hatake Satoru could do this. If it were someone else, they would probably leave behind even more clues.
But this kind of mistake really didn't seem like something Hatake Satoru would do.
Was there something going on?
Hozuki Mangetsu was wondering whether he should ask Hatake Satoru if something had been happening recently.
Then he saw that the person had already walked to the bed and was leisurely making the bed.
It seemed like the matter of something falling in the forest was a very ordinary thing.
"Not gonna look - I'm tired~ I want to sleep for a while~".
"Wake me up when Hidan can talk like a normal person."
Hatake Satoru lazily went straight to bed, covered himself with the blanket, and prepared to sleep.
He used too much magic power, and moving those stones was too tiring.
And constantly moving around in the forest, the distance wasn't a problem, but stopping and starting was a bit tiring.
Of course, he also had the ability to beat people up now, but he just didn't think it was necessary.
Hidan wasn't awake, so his experiment couldn't be done, so he might as well sleep for a while.
"Huh?!!! That's it!?"
Hozuki Mangetsu couldn't help but exclaim, while Hatake Satoru put on his eye mask on the bed and fell into a state of rest.
If they made a mistake, they would want to erase the traces they left behind.
After Hatake Satoru knew that his mistake caused a problem, he actually just calmly went to sleep!?
"That's it."
Hatake Satoru turned his back to him and wrapped himself in the blanket, saying in a muffled voice.
There was no need to go back to clean up that thing, Hatake Satoru thought for a while and came to this conclusion.
First of all, if someone else noticed that thing, searching based on it wouldn't lead them to them.
Because they teleported away, there was no scent trail left, so even if they looked, they wouldn't be able to find them.
Ordinary people would give up at this point. If someone wanted to try harder, they could leave this thing as evidence to use when a situation arises.
In short, there's no need to rush to solve this problem. If they were so unlucky as to encounter it in the future, they would deal with it then.
Speaking of ninja dogs being able to search, it's also possible that Kakashi would use them to search.
If it was Pakkun, he should be able to smell that it was Hatake Satoru's thing right away.
Kakashi might not report it and ask him about it privately.
No matter which possibility he thought about, it didn't matter. It was okay to leave evidence, as long as it wasn't noticed.
After thinking about the situation, Hatake Satoru went to sleep.
No matter how he thought about it, he felt that nothing could threaten him.
Hatake Satoru slept soundly, leaving Hozuki Mangetsu alone looking around blankly.
His thinking always seemed to lag behind the teacher.
How could this be?
Seeing that Hatake Satoru had no intention of continuing the conversation, Hozuki Mangetsu had no choice but to shrug and walk out the door.
He carefully closed the door behind him.
Since the teacher wants to rest, he might as well go see how Hidan, who was taken by Sasori for research, was doing.
Hatake Satoru didn't mean to hide anything now... After Hozuki Mangetsu spent more time with Sasori, he gradually didn't care so much that he used to be a member of the Akatsuki organization.
To put it bluntly, he wasn't a bad guy, and he had been personality-corrected by Hatake Satoru.
In fact, most of the time, Sasori was quite interesting.
Maybe it was also because of his current size and the appearance of that young boy, it was really difficult for people to feel hostile towards him.
It felt like this kind of child couldn't possibly have any bad intentions.
Deidara, Sasori, and now Hidan, who only had a head left.
Hozuki Mangetsu also vaguely realized that Hatake Satoru seemed to be trying his best to poach people.
And he was digging in such a way that he directly broke down a whole wall of someone else's house.
"... As expected of the teacher..."
He actually got these members of the Akatsuki organization to re-enter the workforce. Most importantly, Hatake Satoru was able to persuade these people.
This matter was actually quite outrageous.
He even had them hiding in various places in Sunagakure and Kirigakure, concealing their existence in various ways.
Hozuki Mangetsu felt like he was watching a very big conspiracy.
Although he didn't know what Hatake Satoru was bringing these people back for, inexplicably taking in so many hard-to-control S-rank wanted criminals was no different from putting world-destroying weapons in his own house.
Hozuki Mangetsu thought to himself as he walked towards the nutrition department.
After he pressed the button next to it with his thumb, the lights on the door flickered for a moment, and then slowly opened.
The people inside were walking back and forth with bottles and jars in their hands. Hozuki Mangetsu looked at the wards next to him with interest.
Sasori's expression was a bit listless. He stood in front of the hospital bed with his arms crossed, wanting to write his impatience on his face.
"Knock knock... judge".
Hozuki Mangetsu knocked on the window from the outside and winked at Sasori.
Sasori paused for a moment, and the frustrated expression on his face disappeared like a magic trick.
He had an innocent smile on his face, and his amber eyes blinked at the doctor next to him.
After he finished speaking, he turned his back to the doctor, his face fell all of a sudden, and he walked out.
