Cos Wuzan, was stabbed ten times by Heize at the beginning

"elder sister!"

A loud shout.

Naruto charged toward Rei Amamiya like a cannonball.

Rei Amamiya reached out and caught Naruto.

Naruto hugged Rei Amamiya's neck and rubbed his cheek against hers: "Sister! You're finally back! I missed you so much! I missed you so much!"

Rei Amamiya was pleased to find that Naruto had gained weight again.

Yamato deserves a lot of credit!

He put Naruto off him and said to Yamato, "Yamato, you've worked hard these past few days. I'll treat you to barbecue tonight!"

"Barbecue! Yay!"

"Let's eat barbecue!"

Before Yamato could speak, Naruto had already jumped up.

Yamato looked at Rei Amamiya with a troubled expression, shook his head, and said apologetically, "Sensei, I have a mission later..."

Rei Amamiya raised an eyebrow in surprise. Was the surge in Konoha mission requests really that exaggerated?

"Then I'll treat you to barbecue whenever you have time."

Rei Amamiya said again.

Yamato smiled again and nodded to Rei Amamiya: "Yes! Thank you, teacher!"

Rei Amamiya said to him, "Naruto, I'll take care of things here. Go ahead and do your work! Be careful on the road!"

Hearing his teacher's words of advice, Yamato felt a warmth in his heart, nodded, and left the spot.

Rei Amamiya walked upstairs, with Naruto following behind him like a little tail.

"Sister! Sister!"

Let's go out for barbecue tonight!

I want to eat barbecue!

"I want to eat barbecue with my sister!"

"Waaaaah..."

Naruto faked crying as he jumped around Rei Amamiya.

Rei Amamiya took out an octopus plush toy: "This is a souvenir I brought back for you from Kirigakure!"

Naruto immediately quieted down, and he habitually rubbed his cheek against the octopus plushie.

In less than a minute, Naruto started again.

"Wow wow wow!"

"I love it!"

"Thank you, sister!"

"elder sister!"

Let's go out for barbecue tonight!

The topic has returned to its starting point.

Because of Naruto, Rei Amamiya is now immune to the title "older sister".

When Naruto was just learning to speak, he even subconsciously called Amamiya Rei "Mom," which scared Amamiya Rei so much that she almost sewed Naruto's mouth shut.

After being constantly taught by Rei Amamiya, Naruto finally understood the difference between his older sister and his mother.

Compared to the title of "mother," Rei Amamiya suddenly felt that her older sister was nothing.

"Ok!"

Rei Amamiya agreed to Naruto's request to go eat barbecue.

That's one of the reasons he likes Naruto!

Naruto takes gaining weight just as seriously as he does.

He just wanted Naruto to eat more meat and grow chubby.

Being a little chubby is good!

Being a little chubby means you're healthy!

……

Just as Itachi Uchiha finished eating the red bean cakes his mother had prepared, figures from the Anbu appeared at the door.

"Uchiha Itachi, the Hokage summons you."

After uttering these words, the ANBU ninja stood quietly in Itachi Uchiha's courtyard, waiting.

"Go! Itachi, don't keep the Hokage waiting!"

Mikoto smiled understandingly at Itachi.

Itachi Uchiha nodded, looked at Sasuke who was pouting, and smiled helplessly: "I'm sorry, Sasuke, I'll be with you next time."

After saying that, he walked towards the Anbu, and his figure disappeared into the Uchiha clan's courtyard along with the Anbu ninja.

On his way to the Hokage's office, Itachi Uchiha was filled with doubt.

What does the Hokage want with him?

"Lord Hokage, Itachi Uchiha has arrived."

An ANBU ninja reported from outside the Hokage's office.

"Come in."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's voice came from inside the door.

The ANBU ninja pushed open the office door and gestured for Uchiha Itachi to come in.

Uchiha Itachi entered the Hokage's office and was surprised to find two familiar figures inside.

Shigure Byakuya and Suzuran Kaede turned to look at Itachi Uchiha and greeted him.

"Greetings, Hokage-sama."

Uchiha Itachi bowed.

Hiruzen Sarutobi raised his hand towards him, his smile benevolent: "Itachi, I've decided that you, Shigure Byakuya, and Suzuran Fuuin will form a team and begin carrying out missions from now on."

"Yes."

Itachi Uchiha nodded.

Hiruzen Sarutobi said helplessly, "I know you haven't had much rest yet, but there are too many missions in the village, and the ninjas can't handle them all, so I asked you to come and help."

Despite his frustration, Hiruzen Sarutobi was in a good mood.

A large number of commissioned tasks is often a symbol of a village's strength.

It was precisely because the ninja world believed in Konoha's strength that they entrusted the mission to Konoha.

"Yes!"

Suzuran Kaede didn't look like she hadn't rested at all; she was full of energy.

After all, her goal is to become a ninja like the captain!

How could I easily say I'm tired?

"it is good."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded with satisfaction and handed the scroll to them.

As he watched them leave the Hokage's office, Hiruzen Sarutobi's gaze involuntarily fell on the portraits of the past Hokage on the wall.

at the same time.

root.

Danzo entrusted the task to Shisui.

"To prevent the village's information from being leaked, he must be killed."

Danzo stared at Shisui in front of him and said.

Shisui's face was covered by a mask, and only his answer could be heard in the air.

"Yes."

After putting the mission scroll into his ninja tool bag, Shisui turned and left the Anbu.

His figure darted swiftly through the forest, heading towards his destination.

Zhi Shui frowned slightly as he thought about the mission.

He betrayed the village, and to prevent the village's information from being leaked, that ninja must be killed.

Chapter 276 Is he a rogue ninja?

"After the Chunin Exams, I found that my strength has improved a lot!"

The lily of the valley in the maple garden danced happily among the branches.

Shirogane Shigure nodded in agreement: "Me too!"

"Thanks to the captain!"

"The captain is amazing!"

"I'm like a little fangirl," said Suzuran Kaede, holding her hands in a gesture of affection.

Shirogane looked at Suzuran Kaedin, who resembled a crazed fan of the captain, and shook his head.

Although the captain is indeed very powerful, Suzuran Kaede is now too terrifying!

Nine out of ten sentences were related to the team leader.

Suzuran Kaede said with a hint of smugness, "The mission was really easy! Not tiring at all!"

Their mission this time was to deal with bandits near a village in the Land of Fire.

With the three of them working together, they completed the task with ease.

Shigure Byakuya said, "That's because none of the bandits we encountered were wandering ninjas!"

If wandering ninjas are involved, this mission will be much more difficult.

"That's true!"

Fengyuan Linglan nodded.

Although the mission was simple and completed smoothly, it was still nighttime after they finished because the mission location was some distance from Konoha.

Suzuran looked up at the moon in the sky: "I hope it won't be too late to get back to Konoha."

Shigure Shiyagare glanced at the moon and couldn't help but say, "It's already very late."

Kaede Suzuran glared at Byakuya Shigure.

Uchiha Itachi, who was standing between Suzuran Kaede and Shigure Byakuya, suddenly stopped.

"what happened?"

Shigure Byakuya and Suzuran Kaede also stopped and looked at Itachi Uchiha with a puzzled expression.

As moonlight filtered through the treetops, Itachi Uchiha stared at a drop of blood that blended almost seamlessly with the color of the tree trunk.

He crouched down and looked at the knife marks on the tree.

Shigure Byakuya and Suzuran Kaede noticed it upon closer inspection.

"How is this going?"

Shigure Byakuya asked in confusion, "We're not far from Konoha, so why are there ninjas fighting here?"

Suddenly, Itachi Uchiha heard the sound of wind.
