Hiruzen of Konoha is my father

"Well...it was delayed by five days before the end of the mission. You told me it was because the border was too difficult to find and I got lost." Hiruzen put down the report in his hand and frowned at the four silent people in front of him. Among them, the two Sarutobi had a natural look on their faces, completely unaware of the consequences of their delayed time.

"Then, do I look so old that I would let you come up with such words that no one would believe?" Hiruzen's words gradually became harsher. Sakumo and Shisui, who were outsiders, were obviously a little nervous. The only one who didn't The two changed completely turned a blind eye to the threat hidden in Hiruzen's words, and even felt a sense of intimacy.

The four people present had absolute trust in Long, so they did not reveal what had happened before Long spoke. However, what Long did not expect was that Asma did not reveal anything before he entered the village. After seeing Hiruzen again, he excitedly took out a familiar scroll, which made everyone except him turn green with anger.

"If you are going out to do other things, considering your contribution to the village, I can treat this time as a holiday for you, but..." Hiruzen raised the scroll that he had handed over before and gritted his teeth. asked.

"Why was the key item in this agreement, the Ninja Sword, brought back to you unharmed? Can anyone help me answer this question?" Hiruzen, who was so angry that his arms began to tremble, immediately looked at the instigator. Asuma, who pretended to look at the decoration next to him with an unnatural look on his face, stood up and roared.

"Tell me why you didn't hand this thing over"

"Well, we have already handed over the scroll, but I picked this up on the road. As for why Kirigakure threw it away, I don't know." Asuma's voice became smaller and smaller under Hiruzen's glare. The three people implicated around him were also treated in the same way, and they were all sweating nervously.

Knowing that he could not explain clearly, Long gave Asma a hard look, sorted out the words in his mind, took a step forward and stood out, withstood the pressure of the three people around him, and looked at Hiruzen was staring at him across the way.

"The scroll was indeed handed over at the beginning, but we found another more important clue during the completion of the mission. We all agreed that this matter was more important than the so-called truce with Kirigakure, so we Interrupt this mission"

Long's answer was within Hiruzen's expectation. Although these four people didn't like to act according to the rules, he still didn't believe that they would do things that were detrimental to Konoha, so Hiruzen picked up the After taking a sip of the cooled tea, he nodded and signaled Long to continue.

"We vaguely learned from Kirigakure that we met that there will be other ninja villages coming to trade with Kirigakure in a while, and judging from the current situation, the most likely force that can trade with Kirigakure is Sunagakure. Kirigakure is also the enemy that is currently holding us back a lot of energy, so we wanted to stay and see what Kirigakure’s transaction was, but to our surprise, we saw some inside information.”

"Sunagakure sacrificed the life of the Sekoku ninja Yekura in exchange for a temporary truce between Kirigakure and Sunagakure. As for why these defensive forces were gathered together and what to do, it is still unknown." Long's calm and clear answer made Hiruzen turn from feverish. Hiruzen broke free from his mind. After thinking for a moment with a wrinkled face, Hiruzen stood up from his chair and looked at the prosperous Konoha Village outside the window.

"How did you deal with that Ye Cang?"

"After being rescued, I helped her recover from her injuries and let her go. Anyway, the moment she walked out of the village, she was considered a traitorous ninja of Sunagakure. It would be better to let her wander in the ninja world and attack Sunagakure. Hidden there to carry out some psychological attacks."

"Well..." Hiruzen nodded and agreed with Long's approach. Unfortunately, if the deal with Kirigakure succeeds, Konoha will definitely be the biggest winner. However, the current situation does not seem to be bad. After learning about Sunagakure's secret gathering of troops, Konoha will definitely be on guard. No matter what tricks Sunagakure plans to play, it will not have much effect.

"Since the four of you caused this disaster, it's your turn to put an end to it. Now a new order is issued. The "Ye" team will go to the interior of the Kingdom of Wind from now on to find out the next step of Sunagakure's secret gathering of troops. Action, be sure to know Sunagakure’s next move.”

"Yes"

After the four people left the Hokage's office in an orderly manner, the young Shisui immediately breathed a sigh of relief. The breathless atmosphere just now was really suffocating him to death. If it were any later, he would suspect that he would suffocate. And die.

"You idiot, why don't you just throw away those broken knives? Why did you pick them back?" Long Zhi didn't know what to say about his brother, who actually brought back the evidence of his assassination of Kirigakure. Now, The questions that Kirigakure had been wondering about for several days were solved directly, and the companions who were guarding the border suffered.

"But it would be a waste to just leave these knives there. In that case, why not bring them back and let our people control these knives?"

"Kirigakure has mastered these swords for so long. Will there be no taboos on the swords? If they can really be used, do you think the old man will not take them out and share them with others? You are very smart." Long said helplessly, and said to Sui. Sakumo and Shisui apologized for being implicated, and the two of them were very speechless towards Asuma. But fortunately, they were all so familiar with each other, so it was not that big of a burden to trick them. After leaving the building, the four of them We parted ways and prepared to travel to the Kingdom of Wind tomorrow morning.

"I'm going to the hospital. You go home first. Tell mother that I'll go home for dinner tonight." Long suddenly stopped when he walked near the hospital. After saying a few words, he left Asma alone. , Asma no longer cared too much about Long suddenly running away alone, shrugged and turned back to go home.

As for Long, when he arrived at the hospital, he did not go in directly through the main door. Instead, he jumped several times on the outer wall to the window of his previous department and jumped in, carefully looking around.

"Long, are you finally back? Is the mission over?" Suddenly a powerful shout came from behind Long. After being startled, Long quickly turned around and said to the head nurse.

"Please keep your voice down, head nurse. You know it's easy to scare people to death if you talk so loudly behind your back?"

"I was just startled by you. Suddenly you jumped in from the window without saying a word. I didn't know what I was doing. I almost thought you were here to steal something."

"Uh hahaha, let's not talk about this, head nurse, have you seen Teacher Nanazi? I have something to do with her." Long saw the head nurse saying that he was going to be led astray, and he immediately went straight to the subject asked.

"Nanako Nanako, you only have Nanako in your eyes all day long. You have these things in your mind all day long. I haven't seen you for a few days and I don't know if your medical ninjutsu has declined." The head nurse made it clear. Not wanting to let Long go just like that, he ignored him.

After finally seeing Long's troubled look, the head nurse sighed, turned around and arranged the equipment and said, "Nanazi also left the village right after your mission. She seems to be worried about the front line." My parents, so I volunteered to go to the front line and become a logistics medical ninja."

"Ah, that's it. Thank you so much, head nurse. Don't worry, I will come back to learn medical ninjutsu when I'm free. Don't worry." The head nurse was very pleased with Long's knowledge. However, with two less people to help, the head nurse became even busier. After waving her hands a few times to indicate that Long could leave, she picked up the tray full of instruments and walked out of the room. Long didn't linger much and walked out of the window. disappear.

"Wow, isn't this Konoha-ryu Dance of the Three Suns and Moons? Old ape, why did you give me such a big surprise?" Not long after returning home, Long saw the restless Asuma sparring with the old ape who had been at home. At this time, the two of them reached a critical moment. Facing the controller of the Ruyi Stick, the old ape Asuma turned his back with a knife in one hand, and then jumped into the sky, and two clones emerged from it. , which suddenly caused Asuma a lot of trouble.

"Tch, don't underestimate me." After Asma understood the secret of this sword technique, he naturally turned around to avoid the falling attack of the three monkeys, and spit out a fireball at the place where the three monkeys gathered.

In the fireball, the two figures disappeared into the flames after struggling for a moment. The old ape jumped into the air the moment the fireball hit him, looking down at the furious Asuma at his feet.

"You don't know where this monkey came from. You have a very high talent for learning. I just practiced it a few times in front of it and it completely copied my movements. I have been teaching it these days. As you can see, I learn faster than the two of you." Hiruzen, who had gotten off work early, sat down on the corridor with a pipe in his mouth, watching the entangled man and monkey in the distance continue to fight.

"Although the amount of chakra is not very large, the talent for understanding taijutsu is really amazing. If you had brought it here earlier, I could have trained it into a qualified ninja." Hiruzen said about the ninja he had trained. The monkey was very proud. Seeing that the monkey who had only been trained for a few days was fighting evenly with his son, he secretly cursed Asuma for his ineffectiveness.

"Old man, if you are so good at training, I wonder if you would mind training a few more."

"Yes." Hiruzen turned his head and looked at Long, who had a playful smile on his face to please him. The expression on his face also stiffened. He seemed to have brought some trouble to him.
