Path of the Giants of the Autumn Path of the Leaf

The figure above the desert made no movement, just silently staring at the water mirror of Qiudao

It's a bit shameless to say that only Akimichi Shuijing can enter this desert place.After Ymir finished building Kai's Giant with sand, he seemed to have nothing to do.

Sometimes Akido Shuijing would think that if he stayed alone in the desert with nothing to do, he would probably go crazy.

He excitedly ran to the tree and waved to Ymir, but he only received an indifferent look.

Akidao Shuijing didn't care, and sat directly under the light tree, minding his own business.

"I have been involved in a trouble recently, and I don't know when a giant will be awakened. I have no choice now. If one day I can be free from the constraints of this system, then you will be free, and so will I."

Saying that, Akimichi Suikyou raised his head and glanced at the sculpture-like Ymir.

He didn't get any response, but he wasn't discouraged.This is a normal reaction. That day when Ymir responded enthusiastically to Akimichi Suijing, that was the real horror.

"It's almost time. I'm leaving. It's time to face reality."

With that said, Akimichi Shuijing stood up, patted the non-existent gravel on his pants, and said in a low tone.

After hearing this, Ymir glanced at him, but still had no reaction.

His consciousness was then separated from the "road" and emerged from the abyss. Akimichi Shuijing suddenly opened his eyes.There was a dazzling light in front of my eyes, and I squinted again after opening it halfway.

Keep sleeping.

In the attic, Akimichi Shuijing and Shiina Rin slept peacefully.There was another scene outside. The news that the Ninja Village in the Forest Country was attacked by giants passed through communications all day and night. The daimyo and the Hokage of the Country of Fire and the Country of Wind received it.

If it was just a symbolic destruction and beating, it would be another pretty good show for the Fire Nation to show off its blade.

But what made the fire country's daimyo change his mind was that almost all the important facilities and personnel of the Ninja Village were destroyed and massacred, and it seemed that the group of ninjas were not planning to leave yet.

It was clear that the situation had escalated to the level of an annexation fight.

The Kingdom of Wind will never let the Kingdom of Fire do this, and the Kingdom of Fire obviously doesn't want to cause trouble for itself.

So a letter was hurriedly delivered to the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen. Looking at the letter baked with fire paint on the table, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but have a headache.

He had just received the news three hours ago, and three hours later, the Daimyo's letter arrived at his desk.

"How did things develop like this?" Sarutobi Hiruzen scratched his head in distress, his gray hair was sparse.

He has already arranged for people to investigate the specific personnel and arrangements for this mission, and he believes there will be results soon.After staring at the red lacquered letter on the table for a while, Hiruzen Sarutobi opened it.

On it is a handwritten letter from the daimyo. The handwriting is slightly sloppy and looks a little hasty.

There are very few words in the letter, only two sentences.One sentence is a physical greeting to the third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, asking if he is well recently.

Logically speaking, a long section of polite nonsense should follow to show the daimyo's love and care.

But this time, I simply omitted it and just wrote one sentence hastily.

The general meaning is that he is already on the way, hoping to hear a reasonable explanation so that he can deal with the Wind Country envoy who is about to set off to negotiate.

The words were very polite and innocent, but they were full of accountability.

But Sarutobi's daily account was also confused, the task was signed from his hand.The people chosen are all from his own side, so logically they should be foolproof.

"Lord Hokage."

There was a knock on the door, and the familiar voice of his subordinates came from outside the door.

After coughing, Sandai motioned for his subordinates to come in.Without any foreshadowing, he asked directly.

"what happened?"

"The people haven't been changed, it's just...those people seem to be related to Danzo-sama." Namiashi said hesitantly.

"Danzo?" Sandai frowned, his expression a little grim.

"His hands are stretched too far! Even my subordinates want to get involved."

Sighing, Sarutobi Hiruzen slowly raised his head, his eyes under the bamboo hat as sharp as an eagle.After a moment of silence, he spoke in a deep voice.

"Send my message and ask Danzo to come see me immediately."

"Yes, Hokage-sama." Ningzu Lei bowed slowly and backed away, turned around and left.

As soon as Ichigori left, another subordinate of Sandai, Yamashiro Aoba, hurried over and said while half-kneeling on the ground.

"Hokage-sama, the Daimyo-sama's team is almost here."

"How come it's so fast?" Sarutobi Hiruzen muttered in a low voice, waving his hands and ordering, "Find a way to delay it a little longer. I'll be there after I finish handling the matter."

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

As Yamashiro Aoba receded, Sarutobi Hiruzen truly breathed a sigh of relief.

The news came too fast, and the chain reaction it triggered was too intense.Even if there was only a short sentence describing the current situation of the Ninja Village in Forest Country, Sarutobi Hiruzen could still imagine what kind of horrific actions the team had committed.

It's happened, and the responsibility is almost clear.

No matter what, Danzo must take this matter down.Konoha and the Land of Fire must also shoulder their responsibilities and recall the teams that performed the mission as quickly as possible.

"In this case, a temporary truce may have to be initiated." Sarutobi Hiruzen muttered to himself with a sigh.

The communication between Konoha and the mission team is completely disconnected, and the team will only focus on the mission.If you want to terminate the mission, you can only recall it through Naruto's handwriting.

With the current development of the situation, the armistice procedure must be initiated before the news can be sent to the team.

But this also requires a lot of time.Now he can only hope to stop the loss in time. Sarutobi Hiruzen plans to activate the mission termination procedure immediately after meeting Danzo.

The one responsible for the killing spree in the news was a giant and a female ninja.

The third generation knew in his heart that Danzo's men had forced Shiina Rin's master and apprentice to a dead end, so they could only resort to this extreme method.

But what they do happens to be a task, but they don't have to bear responsibility.All responsibilities belong to the team leader, and within Konoha, Danzo has full responsibility for handling the situation.

The current situation has become extremely complicated. Sarutobi Hiruzen does not think that the two groups of people in the team can come back intact.Between the two parties, one must die.

On one side were five ninjas with special Jonin abilities, and on the other side were Konoha's talented female elite Jonin and the hope of the Akimichi clan. Sarutobi Hiruzen realized that Konoha would not get any benefits from this mission.

"Danzo, Danzo, you really can't wait!" Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression turned extremely grim, and he murmured with a gloomy look.

The sun sets over the plain, and the sky gradually darkens.

In Quanmu Village of the Forest Country, the returning Prajna Crowds searched the village like a blanket, but still found no trace of the two of them.

But it's already dark!
