“Yes, Master Jiraiya has received the information.

“The gate of the Fire Temple has been breached.

"The enemy is most likely the Akatsuki organization."

Uchiha Sasuke suddenly understood.

The people in front of him were the reinforcements sent by his master to rescue him.

Thinking of this, Sasuke couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, and explained:

"Yes, Hokage-sama's information is very accurate.

"The Fire Temple was indeed attacked by a duo from the Akatsuki organization.

"The purpose is to hunt down the head of Master Dilu, the head of the Fire Temple."

Upon hearing this, Shikamaru and Asuma's expressions changed at the same time.

You know, the head that was clearly priced at the gold exchange included, in addition to Chilu, Asuma Sarutobi, who was once one of the "Twelve Guardian Ninjas".

Seeing the nervous look of the master and the disciple, Uchiha Sasuke quickly continued:

“But for now, things have been resolved smoothly.”

"untie

"Has it been resolved?"

Asuma couldn't help but be shocked to hear Sasuke say this.

Then, he murmured with some disappointment:

"Sure enough, it's still too slow."

"Do not say that.

"It's surprising enough that the information was able to be transmitted back to Konoha so quickly."

Uchiha Sasuke spoke to comfort him.

"As expected of Sasuke-kun!

"I knew those guys wouldn't pose any threat to you!"

At the side, Yamanaka Ino, who was obviously relieved, said with a smile.

It seems that I had been worried for a long time before.

"Yeah, I'm glad you're okay."

At this time, Choji Akimichi had already taken out the potato chips from his pocket.

While eating in a hurry, he commented calmly.

Only Nara Shikamaru, for some reason, just lowered his head and looked aside.

Obviously among these people, he is the one who is most familiar with Uchiha Sasuke.

But when we met today, he acted a little strange.

It seemed as if she was avoiding Uchiha Sasuke's gaze.

"Yes

"Did you fight together with Dilu to repel the enemy?"

Meanwhile, Sarutobi Asuma was working hard to sort out the information, and asked with concern:

"So, is Dilu safe and sound as well?"

"Yes, we worked together to repel the enemy."

Uchiha Sasuke nodded and admitted it generously.

Then he explained:

"As Master Di Lu said, he did suffer some external injuries, but it's nothing serious."

On the other side, Asuma Sarutobi was constantly thinking in his mind.

Originally, on the day when Uchiha Itachi returned home as the rain.

He also had a brief fight with Uchiha Itachi's partner, Hoshigaki Kisame, by the Konoha River.

Based on that battle, Asuma had a rough idea of ​​the strength of Akatsuki's personnel.

That time, neither side used their full strength.

But as far as the confrontation is concerned, it should be considered a draw.

Although, at that time, the opponent cut his left arm with that strange big knife.

But soon, he adjusted his combat strategy in time and used the characteristics of the chakra knife to scratch the opponent's face.

Therefore, in Asma's opinion.

The strength of the members of the Akatsuki organization should be roughly similar to his own.

Based on this judgment, Asuma Sarutobi felt very nervous before meeting Uchiha Sasuke.

According to the information that Hokage told me, the other party is a group of two.

There is no need to talk about my old friend Lu Zi, his strength is comparable to mine.

If it's just a one-on-one situation, there's a high probability that you can protect yourself.

But facing two members of Akatsuki, the risk factor would inevitably increase significantly.

Although, I had heard before that Uchiha Sasuke was shining in the Sand Village.

But after all, he was still such a young boy.

In terms of combat experience, they must be very lacking.

To put it bluntly, who knows what's going on in the Sand Village?

In the Fire Temple, his close comrade-in-arms from his youth, Diliu, and his brother's orphan and his own nephew, Sarutobi Konohamaru, were all in such a dangerous situation at the same time.

No wonder Asuma seemed so worried and anxious.

However, now that he knew the matter had been successfully resolved, Asuma Sarutobi had no choice but to seriously re-evaluate the strength level of Uchiha Sasuke.

At this time, it was learned that Di Lu was still injured, but Uchiha Sasuke in front of him was unharmed.

This made Asuma extremely curious, wondering what the specific process of the battle was like.

Could it be that Di Lu's strength has increased significantly again?

Moreover, during the battle, he chose to protect Uchiha Sasuke and became the "Stick Silver"?

So, what about "Jade"? !

Asuma came back to his senses and quickly asked another question that concerned him the most:

"So, what about the seventh team you led out?

"Those kids, are they all right?"

Although, looking at Uchiha Sasuke's calm look, the children will most likely be fine.

But it was a bit too strange that they were in the same team but did not act together.

"That's what I wanted to ask you."

Uchiha Sasuke said kindly:

"I went to do some other things, so I asked them to go back to the village first.

“We separated near Tansho Castle.

"Didn't you run into those three guys on your way here from Konoha?"

Uchiha Sasuke asked.

"Ah? When did it happen?"

Asuma, who had already let go of his worry, couldn't help but feel it again after hearing Sasuke's question.

You know, there is almost only one official road from Konoha to this Tansho City.

It was broad daylight and they were walking towards each other.

Come to think of it, they will meet face to face no matter what, just like their encounter with Sasuke.

Seeing the other party's reaction, Uchiha Sasuke couldn't help but feel a little worried.

He immediately explained in detail the time and place when the few people separated, wanting to confirm further.

Are the kids walking too fast?

It is also possible that Asma's team set out after the three little ones returned to the village.

"Why don't we go back and take a look together?"

Shikamaru said from the side, still avoiding Uchiha Sasuke's gaze.

Now, Uchiha Sasuke has returned safely, which means that Asuma's team's mission can be cancelled.

Asma hesitated for a moment, and then Hefan decided to return to the village as fast as possible to take a look at the situation first.

Maybe, we just got lost on the road.

"Asuma?

"Why are you back again?"

The Land of Fire, Konohagakure Village, at the gate.

Gang Zitie looked at the returning Class 10 with a dazed look on his face, wondering what these people were doing.

Then, Uchiha Sasuke, with a gloomy face, came out from behind Asuma.

"Ah? Master Sasuke is back too?"

Gang Zitie said stupidly.

"Good afternoon, Sasuke-sama!"
