Clearly, they all realized the same problem—the tailed beasts can be resurrected.

Tobirama looked at them and snorted coldly:

"When the tailed beasts are resurrected, none of you will be in Konoha. I won't be able to stop so many tailed beasts."

Upon hearing this, Mito immediately retorted with some dissatisfaction:

"What a coincidence! The tailed beasts haven't been resurrected for so long, how could they possibly be resurrected right after we left?" Her voice was filled with disbelief and a sense of wishful thinking.

Xingliu chimed in from the side:

"That's right, that's right, how could it be such a coincidence? If you're so capable, revive the tailed beasts right now, then I'll..."

Before he could finish speaking, a huge roar suddenly rang out.

The roar echoed through the sky, as if the entire Hidden Leaf Village could hear it clearly.

The roar plunged the Hokage's office into an eerie silence.

The group stared silently at Xingliu, as if waiting for him to finish speaking.

Xingliu opened his mouth, but felt as if his throat was blocked, and he was unable to speak for a moment.

After a while, Xingliu managed to squeeze out a sentence:

"Emmm, I'll just eat an extra bowl of rice tonight!"

After saying that, he raised his hand to wipe away non-existent cold sweat and smiled somewhat awkwardly.

At this moment, Mito also felt a little embarrassed. She gently tugged at Hashirama's clothes and whispered:

"Wood, go and capture these four tailed beasts. Use the same technique you used against the Nine-Tails."

However, at that moment, Xingliu suddenly stood up.

His face turned serious, and he spoke with righteous indignation:

"Leave it to me. Those tailed beasts are too close to Konoha. Let me pull them into the space I create. That way, we can reduce a lot of losses."

Before anyone else could react, he vanished from the spot in a flash.

"Pfft!"

After he left, a laugh suddenly rang out in the Hokage's office.

Then, more laughter echoed in the office, like a string of cheerful notes jumping in the air.

Meanwhile, some commotion occurred on the Tailed Beasts' side.

The Four-Tails slapped the Three-Tails hard on the head, which had just roared. The blow made the Three-Tails dizzy and unable to react for a moment.

But then the words of the Four-Tails calmed down the Three-Tails.

"What are you yelling about? Do you want to die again or do you wish to be sealed away?"

Upon hearing this, the other three tailed beasts immediately recalled the image of Uchiha Seiryu killing all four of them with a single slash.

The scene was terrifying and shocking, causing them to shiver involuntarily.

For a moment, all four tailed beasts fell silent.

But just then, they suddenly felt a blur before their eyes and found themselves in an unfamiliar place.

The four tailed beasts looked around in surprise, trying to figure out what had happened.

Just then, a somewhat familiar voice came from above them:

"Would you rather obediently let me beat you up, or resist and then get beaten up by me?"

Upon hearing this arrogant voice, the four tailed beasts angrily raised their heads and looked toward the source of the sound.

However, once they saw who it was, the anger on their faces froze instantly, replaced by deep fear and dejection.

As the strongest tailed beast besides the nine-tailed beast, the Eight-Tails still has some pride.

Its eyes widened, and it said, forcing itself to speak:

"Don't go too far. We didn't even attack Konoha this time, so why are you treating us like this?"

Xingliu chuckled:

"It seems you've chosen to resist before getting a beating. Fine, I like it when you resist. The more you resist, the more excited I get."

As he said this, Susanoo slowly appeared.

Seeing this Susanoo, which was much larger than the last one, the four tailed beasts showed expressions of despair.

Then, screams echoed through the silent space.

Afterwards, according to unreliable sources, these tailed beasts would always tremble whenever they encountered a stellar stream.

That night, Xingliu did indeed eat an extra bowl of rice.

..........

The next morning, sunlight streamed through the window and fell on Xingliu's face. Suddenly, a knock on the door woke him from his sleep.

He rubbed his eyes, then followed Tsunade and Nono toward the hall to have breakfast.

They chatted excitedly, after all, they had never left Konoha since they were young, and this trip was full of novelty and anticipation for them.

However, Xingliu looked at the equally excited Mito and was somewhat puzzled, not understanding where her excitement came from.

At that moment, Hashirama and he exchanged a glance, as if they both saw each other's reflections in each other's eyes.

But then Xingliu smiled dismissively and made a three-pointer.

Seeing this, Tsunade said irritably, "Hurry up, the ruler is still waiting for us!"

Upon hearing this, Xingliu stopped joking around and began to eat breakfast seriously.

However, they seemed to be a little too slow, and before they had finished eating, they heard a knock on the door.

Then, Zhili ran over with a slightly flushed face.

Seeing her somewhat hurried manner, Mito couldn't help but chuckle softly:

"Are you anxious about the task at hand, or do you want to see Xiaoxingliu as soon as possible?"

Chapter 128 Leaving Konoha

Upon hearing this, Zhili blushed even more, lowering her head shyly. But she quickly looked up again, gazing firmly at Xingliu, and said confidently:

"Yes, I get so excited just thinking about being with Xingliu-kun!"

Upon hearing this, Mito Uzumaki put down her cutlery in surprise and looked at Jizhi.

She had expected the government to remain silent, but she was surprised to find that the government expressed its feelings so frankly.

What surprised her even more was that Tsunade and Nono didn't show any unusual expression after hearing this.

They continued eating their breakfast as if they hadn't heard what the administrator had said.

This made Mito look at the group with a puzzled expression, his heart filled with confusion.

'Something's not right. There must be something I don't know about,' Mito thought to herself.

Yesterday, Tsunade and the other two expressed their feelings during their self-introductions, and there were only the four of them present.

Of course, she knew nothing about this.

Now that they have expressed their intentions, it is perfectly normal for them to speak their minds frankly.

Mito's desire to watch the drama unfold became uncontrollable.

Her eyes sparkled with gossip, as if she wanted to ignite the atmosphere of the entire restaurant.

As someone who has witnessed the emotional changes of Xingliu and others over the past few years, she feels it is her responsibility and obligation to follow this story to the end.

However, just as she was about to start watching the drama unfold, Xingliu seemed to have seen through her thoughts.

He glanced at her indifferently, a meaningful smile playing on his lips, before abruptly interrupting her "chanting."

"By the way, Grandpa Hashirama, are you coming with us today?"

Hashirama was quietly enjoying his breakfast when he heard this, and he instinctively replied:

"Your Mito grandma said that I will travel with her in a couple of days and go to the Land of Whirlpools first."

Xingliu nodded in understanding.

Then he looked at Tsunade, Nonou, and Osamu, and gave them a bright smile: "Since it's not on our way, we'll head over first."

After saying that, he stood up and left the restaurant with the three women.

Their figures disappeared at the restaurant entrance, leaving only a burst of cheerful laughter and the soft sound of the door closing.

Mito sat stiffly at the dining table, staring at the empty chair, her heart filled with resentment.

She glared at Hashirama, as if blaming him for interrupting her plan to watch the drama unfold.

Then she sighed, picked up her cutlery again, and continued to enjoy her breakfast.

Although the gossip was absent, the breakfast was still delicious.

........

Xingliu and his companions had already arrived at the gates of Konoha.

They stopped and turned back to look, as if bidding farewell to this familiar land.

The two large doors, carved from massive pieces of wood, stood tall, and sunlight streamed through the gaps, bathing the entire structure in a golden glow.

They stand quietly open, welcoming everyone who enters or leaves Konoha.

At this time, the gatekeepers of Konoha were not famous figures like Izumo Kamizuki and Kotetsu Koko, but two unfamiliar ninjas.

They were dressed in standard Konoha ninja attire, with serious expressions and sharp eyes.

At a glance, you can tell they are experienced warriors who have faced life and death.

Although Xingliu didn't know them, they were clearly quite familiar with Xingliu.

When Xingliu and the others reached the door, a hint of surprise flashed in one of their eyes, followed by deep respect.

He unconsciously took a step forward, as if he wanted to say something to Xingliu.

However, his companion nimbly reached out and gently stopped him, then shook his head slightly, indicating that he should not disturb him.
