Path of the Giants of the Autumn Path of the Leaf

On top of the ruins of Izumi Village, Rin Shiina dragged Akimichi Mizukyo, who ran out of the ruins, and disappeared into the smoke.

"It's unbelievable, dear disciple."

"Teacher, whether I can survive depends on you." Akimichi Shuijing completely ignored Shiina Rin's words and coughed and said weakly.

"Don't worry, everyone in the village who can be beaten is almost dead." Shiina Rin said with relief, "They won't look for us again."

With that said, Shiina Rin dragged Akimichi Suikage away from the battlefield.Taking advantage of the remnant power of the explosion, Rin Shiina stepped on the enemy's Akido water mirror like a ghost and jumped to the other end of the alley.

The heavy rain stopped and dawn appeared.

When Akimichi Shuijing slowly woke up, Shiina's side face came into view.

"Teacher, water..." Halfway through, looking at Shiina Rin's joking expression, Akimichi Shuijing suddenly thought of something, his words stopped abruptly, and he quickly changed his words.

"The Water Release Ninjutsu is so powerful. I almost got penetrated last night. It was so dangerous... so dangerous."

Rin Shiina showed a bored expression when he heard this, stood up and walked to the side, picked up a water bottle and handed it to Akimichi Shuijing and said.

"There are people coming from the village."

"Have you met them?" Qiudao Shuijing asked in surprise.

"No, let's see what happens." Shiina Rin replied casually, stood up and walked to the window to look out.

"It's Kakashi and his group of students. Sure enough, this kind of thing is suitable for Kakashi to do."

"Why are they?" Akimichi Shuijing was confused for a moment. Logically speaking, at this time, they should be in the Land of Waves and Zabuza falling in love and killing each other.

"Lead the snake out of the hole, the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki and the Uchiha survivors, tsk tsk." Shiina Rin said.

"The relationship between the Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Fire has been very delicate these years, and the Kingdom of Tian is not at peace either. I heard that a Sound Ninja Village popped up out of thin air."

"Now that Kakashi is leading a team to visit the Kingdom of Forest, that old man of the Third Generation is really damaged."

"Just wait, I don't know how the village will react." Akidao Shuijing took a sip of water and said, "They will find a way to find us."

"Teacher, who is stronger, you or Kakashi?" Akimichi Shuijing glanced at her and asked casually.

"Huh? It's hard to say, half and half, right?" Rin Shiina said after hesitating for a moment.

"Five to five?"

"Huh?" Shiina Rin asked in confusion, "What does [-]-[-] mean?"

"Half and half."

"So you already know the identity of that nine-tailed brat, right?"

Shiina Rin suddenly asked.

Listening to Shiina Rin's completely unprepared question, Akimichi Suikyou was stunned.

Naruto's jinchuriki identity is still a secret known to very few people for the time being, but Akimichi Suijing didn't show any surprise when he heard Shiina Rin's words about Naruto's identity.

"There are no secrets between friends." Akimichi Shuijing said with a perfunctory smile.

"My dear disciple, you are still so hypocritical!" Shiina Rin curled her lips and said, but she was too lazy to ask any more questions.

"Thank you for the compliment, teacher." Qiudao Shuijing smiled, "Before we leave, we have to find someone. This matter has to be tested by the teacher."

"Who?"

"The leader of the prajna crowd."

"Kill again? Is it appropriate?" Shiina Rin turned around and asked, with a surprised look on his face.

"Kakashi is most likely here to clean up the mess for us this time."

"If you don't kill, go there and wait for Kakashi." Akimichi Shuijing said, "Leave a way, maybe he will come back in the future."

Hearing this, Shiina Rin stared at Akimichi Shuijing, took a deep breath and seemed to want to say something.But after being stunned for a long time, he didn't say anything in the end.

Grumbling, Shiina Rin snatched the water bottle from Akimichi Shuijing's hand and took two sips, frowning and said.

"Let's take a break at this point."

"There's not much potential in the first place." Qiudao Shuijing muttered, his eyes sweeping from the dim room to the window.

There are still traces of blood soaked in the roof where birds flew over.On several collapsed ruins, ninjas and civilians were cleaning and repairing.

After leaving the nightmarish night, the village was still shrouded in deathly silence in the morning, and at noon I heard the news that the unrest was over.

No one knows what happened, only what appears to be an armistice.People from Konoha came to negotiate, and in the morning someone saw a strange combination entering the village.

Wearing Konoha's forehead protector on his head, he was probably the person sent by Konoha to negotiate.But those three people were all half-grown children. It didn't look like they were negotiating, but more like they were playing.

Kakashi and Naruto have already completed the communication with the senior management of Izumi Village, and the agreement and the handwritten letter from the Third Hokage have also been submitted.Since Izumaki Village needs to do research before he can give a reply letter, this matter will take time to process.

The Kingdom of Forest is just a small country next to Konoha. In this turbulent world, it can only accept the ceasefire compensation agreement from the Kingdom of Fire.

In other words, Konoha admitted that it was responsible for this own mission, saying that there was ambiguity in the mission delivery process, which led to the over-execution of the mission.

In this regard, Konoha will compensate Izumi Village within a reasonable range, provided that the accidental nature of this incident is acknowledged.

The condition for obtaining compensation and a truce is to bow your head. Konoha holds a knife in one hand and candy in the other. In fact, what he is doing is not personnel matters.The third generation's intention is also obvious, and they want to turn this internal chaos into an opportunity to establish their authority.

The seventh team was sent to carry out the mission in the Kingdom of Forest, with the intention of killing countless eagles with one arrow.

But what no one expected was that Akimichi Mizukage and Shiina Rin were as hard to find as they disappeared from the world.

"They look at us so strangely." Naruto muttered, squinting his eyes as he walked on the street.

"It's like..."

"Enemy." Sakura's face looked a little heavy.

"Those two guys smashed up their village and killed so many ninjas that they almost reduced their elite ninja force by half." Kakashi said lazily, "Aren't we enemies in their eyes? "

Looking at the dilapidated streets and collapsed buildings around him, the smell of blood made Naruto's expression change. Even with his eyes closed, he could still think of the chaos last night.

The smell of blood after heavy rains filled almost every blocked ditch and muddy pit.

"Why do you do that?" Naruto asked in confusion, his face a little stiff.

"This is the mission. Ninjas will even kill their companions. There is no reason." Kakashi did not avoid Naruto's question.

"Were those ninjas killed by Akimichi Suikage?" Sasuke suddenly raised his head and looked at Kakashi, and rarely asked.

"No, it was his teacher who killed her. That woman is also a troublesome character, uh... her disciples are not simple guys either. Just stay away from them." Kakashi warned.

"Those destroyed buildings seem to have been formed by explosions." Sakura said worriedly, "But we can't even see their faces. They are simply avoiding us."
