Hayato moved skillfully past the deadly traps set by the shadow clone and walked into the cave.

Because they did not deliberately restrain their breath or cover up the sound, Baiyun Caiyu and Shancheng Huahui inside immediately noticed the movement at the entrance of the cave.

Huahui's originally gloomy eyes suddenly flashed with light.

Although Baiyun Caiyu's face also changed, there was a hint of vigilance hidden under the bright expression. The only moveable right hand quietly took out a kunai and detonating talisman from the ninja bag behind Huahui.

As an elite jounin, as long as she has a breath left, she will remain fully vigilant and do her best to the best of her ability.

But soon, as Hayato appeared and spoke the code he left before they separated, the solemn look in her eyes completely disappeared.

"Falcon!"

Huahui pounced on Hayato like a hungry tiger, hugged him tightly, and said excitedly: "You are finally back, it's great..."

Her voice was choked with excitement.

"I thought I would never see you again..."

"Do not worry."

Hayato shrugged, then looked at Baiyun Caiyu who was also relieved not far away, and said casually: "It's not that easy to kill me."

Huahui felt her hands were sticky and couldn't help but loosen her hands. Then she raised her hands and looked at them. She suddenly found that it was covered with dark red blood, and her eyes suddenly trembled.

"Halabusa...Hayato..."

She quickly let go of Hayato, and then said with great concern: "You...are you okay?"

Hayato looked at the blood in her hands and shook his head with a relaxed expression.

"It's okay, this is the enemy's blood."

After hearing this, Huahui was still worried.

She quickly walked up to Hayato, pulled open his heavily damaged black coat, and pulled at the damaged areas a few more times. She was completely relieved when she saw that the injuries inside were not very serious.

At this time, Caiyu suddenly asked: "Where is the enemy?"

"Ditched by me."

As Hayato spoke, he patted Hua Hui's dirty hands, then walked to a protruding stone platform and sat down, pretending to be a little tired.

"Judging from their movements, I should have gotten rid of that mysterious tracking technique. This place is safe for the time being."

Hearing this, Caiyu couldn't help but take a deep look at Hayato.

"As expected of Hayato-kun, you are indeed very reliable."

Hayato shook his head and did not show any joy at being recognized, nor did he get carried away with being praised. Instead, he asked her seriously: "Teacher Caiyu, how are you feeling now? Are you feeling better?"

Single-handedly facing five jounin masters who cooperated with each other tacitly, and killing them all, Baiyun Caiyu's record was much more dazzling than his, but the cost of killing the enemy was also much higher than his.

Moreover, Iroha does not have the ability to restore her health and cannot recover as quickly as him. As long as her health has not returned to zero, she cannot die. Therefore, if she is too seriously injured, even if she does not die, she may still have sequelae.

Caiyu yawned and said casually: "It's not bad. You're good at treating wounds and healing them. There should be no problem."

It can be seen that after Hayato returned safely, she felt a lot more relaxed.

"Really? That's fine."

Hayato nodded, then leaned on the rocks behind, and continued: "So, what should we do next?"

Hearing this, Huahui immediately looked at Caiyu.

The Tsukigakure Village, which was originally an ally of Konoha, betrayed its alliance and launched an attack on them. This was something extraordinary.

Generally speaking, betrayal between countries is mostly due to greater interests and higher chips.

To be able to make a small ninja village betray Konoha, which is still the leader in national power in the ninja world, the interests behind it are definitely not small. No one will do anything without benefits, and if they can provide such benefits, they dare to target Konoha and are not afraid of Konoha. The power of Ye's counterattack is basically certain.

Since even Tsukigakure Village would betray its trust, the other small ninja villages around it, whether they were neutral or had an alliance with Konoha, or had conflicts with Konoha, could not be trusted.

What's more, the current ninja world is a powder keg, which may be ignited by a special event at any time.

Hayato clearly remembers that at this point in time, probably when the Third Kazekage was made into a human figure by Scorpion, Sunagakure Village came out in full force. As a result, Sunagakure's leaderless and weak state was exposed, which aroused the covetousness of other ninja powers. when.

The connection of these events made Hayato gradually realize that the Ninja World War, which had a profound impact on countless plot characters, was getting closer and closer.

In fact, he didn't know much about that war, he only knew some plots that appeared in the characters' memories.

For example, in Sunagakure's battle against Kumogakure, Rasa, the fourth generation Kazekage from the future, successfully defended Sunagakure Village with his magnetic release sand gold;

Kumogakure versus Konoha, Namikaze Minato succeeded in showing off in the duel with the AB brothers and retreated gracefully;

Kumogakure fought against Iwagakure, and the Sandaime Raikage died on the battlefield. Of course, it is also possible that Kumogakure was angry to death because he faced ten thousand Iwagakure ninjas alone for three days and three nights without any support;

Konoha fought against Kirigakure, Matt Dai died in the battle, and the seven contemporary ninja swordsmen were beaten until only the Three Lucky Treasures were left;

During Konoha's battle against Iwagakure, an event occurred that had a profound impact on all subsequent characters - the Battle of Kannabi Bridge;

Kirigakure attacked Konoha, and after Nohara Lin was planted with three tails, she committed suicide in the hands of Kakashi. Later, the Kirigakure troops encountered Uchiha Shisui in action, and the Kirigakure troops led by Ao were scared away by Shisui.

……

But now, the abnormal state of Sunagakure Village and Kumogakure have changed.

When you are on the battlefield, surrounded by enemy nations, you can never be too careful.

If you just get rid of the enemy's pursuit and relax, you don't know how you will die in the future.

Seeing the two people looking at him, Iroha thought for a moment, and then said: "First pass the news here back to the village, and then leave here as soon as possible. I will contact Minato and Choza and find a way to join them."

Huahui pressed her chest nervously, and then timidly said: "Then...this mission..."

"There's nothing left to investigate."

Caiyu said calmly: "The Moon Hidden Village was once a very close ally of Konoha. This kind of betrayal is enough to prove something, and it is enough for the village to understand the current situation."

"situation?"

Huahui didn't understand.

Hayato raised his eyebrows, and then looked at Caiyu deeply: "War...?"

"Ah."

Iroha was not surprised by Hayato's reaction.

Hayato was very special in her heart, and she couldn't look at him through the eyes of an ordinary child.

Caiyu often habitually adds the word "小" before the names of his disciples, such as "Little Huahui", "Little Beidou" and so on. Although he does not mean to look down on them, he clearly treats them as "little" in his name. Children in need of care.

But she basically wouldn't call Hayato that way, as if she regarded him as a peer, and she had a special regard for Hayato, the boy who saved her twice at extremely critical moments.

"If my guess is correct, Minato, Shikaku, and Choza must have encountered some troubles now."
