dusk.

The door of Dingzi's house was pushed open, and Hong, with black hair draped behind her head, walked in and fanned herself with her hands:

"How did you learn to smoke again? You look a little childish."

As she spoke, Hong held the shoe cabinet with one hand, bent down, took off her shoes and put them aside, and walked in with a pair of white and tender feet on the floor, holding the vegetables she had just bought in her hands.

"Why are you here?"

Ding Zi put out the cigarette with a hoarse voice.

"Don't I owe you two meals? Come and pay me back. Open the window, you bastard!"

Hong was talking as she pulled open the curtains. She opened the window and leaned out to take a deep breath.

"Ah! That's great. It's such a luxurious house that's hard to refuse."

As she spoke, Hong took the ingredients into the kitchen, put on an apron and started to get busy. Dingzi's kitchen was open, so Dingzi could be seen not far away.

"Dingzi, I have something to tell you, but you have to promise not to get angry."

"Go ahead, I've heard a lot of bad news today, and yours is not the only one."

Hong wiped the water droplets that splashed into the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand and said calmly:

"Naruto was picked up by the Root in the afternoon."

"Ah."

Chouzi was holding a kunai in his hand and fiddling with it. Compared to Chouzi's calmness, Kushina in the soul space was almost going crazy at this moment.

In the soul space, Kushina had no place to vent her anger and could only complain to Minato.

To be honest, Minato, who was called the little sun, looked quite ugly at this time. He had a gloomy face and said nothing.

Tobirama didn't react much, he had already guessed these things.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's little tricks were exposed, and it was Naruto who exposed them, so everything he had done before was in vain.

It would even plant a seed of hatred in Naruto's heart, so it was inevitable that Danzo would use alternative methods to control Naruto.

The only sounds in the room were the clatter of cooking utensils and the cooking of food. After more than half an hour, Hong placed the food on the dining table and leaned over from behind Dingzi:

"What are you doing so mysteriously?"

Dingzi's nostrils moved, and he could smell Hong's unique body fragrance, a scent similar to that of cherry blossoms.

Only then did Hong see clearly that Dingzi was drawing a pattern on the handle of the kunai. It looked like a simple cat head pattern, but upon closer inspection, it looked more like a scale.

The bottom is the support of a scale, and the two cat ears on the top are like something placed on the scale to keep it balanced.

Very strange sign.

"This is....."

"Done! These should be enough for now."

As he spoke, Chouzi summoned two ninja cats, stuffed kunai into their mouths, and then patted their heads:

"Go."

"Meow~"

The ninja cats nodded to Dingzi, then jumped onto the rockery and quickly disappeared from sight.

"Mysterious, come and have dinner."

Hong pulled Dingzi to sit on the chair, filled two bowls of rice and sat down herself before pointing at the dishes on the table as if to take credit:

"How about giving it a try? If you dare to say anything ordinary, I'll throw you out."

Dingzi took a bite and covered his mouth exaggeratedly:

"What is this! It's delicious! Could it be that... you are the legendary ultimate cooking ninja?"

The two laughed for a while before Hong stopped smiling and said softly:

"What are you going to do about that Naruto?"

"No big deal." Ding Zi's eyes did not change. After swallowing the food in his mouth, he said in a grim tone: "The third generation of the old thief has lived enough, so let's send him on his way."

Hong put down his chopsticks, lowered his head and fell into deep thought.

Faced with the upcoming war between the village and Dingzi, she didn't know how to deal with it.

It is true that she was a ninja of the village and was indebted to the village. But the moment her father died because of the selfishness of the upper echelons, she was no longer indebted to the village.

But if she were to take action against the village, she didn't know if she could do it.

"Don't look like that. You don't need to do anything."

Looking at Ding Zi's purple eyes that seemed to be glowing, Hong's heart skipped a beat:

"What are you talking about!? Do you look down on me?"

Ding Zi shook his head:

"You have no reason to do anything. If you insist on joining, you will be the first to be liquidated when the next generation of Hokage takes office."

Since ancient times, clearing out the emperor's entourage and establishing a new emperor have been internal affairs of the royal family.

Similarly, seizing power in the ninja world is the business of the Hokage alone. How could an ordinary ninja come out and say that he wants to change the Hokage?

Besides, Chouzi is not planning to be Hokage, and if Hong joins in, there will be a lot of unnecessary variables.

This matter has nothing to do with Hong. If she is involved, will the next Hokage feel comfortable? Even if the next Hokage is willing, will the other ninjas be willing?

"So you're going alone?"

"Do you think I'm a fool?" Ding Zi looked at Hong as if she was a fool. "If Might Guy kicks me to death, I won't even have anywhere to cry."

"whispering sound."

Hong added a piece of meat to Dingzi and said teasingly:

"So there are people you're afraid of too? But you're not afraid of Kakashi, and you're not afraid of me, and you're not afraid of the Third Hokage, but you're actually afraid of that guy whose brain is all about muscles. That's really strange!"

"If you underestimate him, you will die."

Ding Zi smiled and shook his head.

If possible, he really wants to recruit Might Guy. Once the Death Gate is opened, he will not be afraid of anyone!

Unfortunately, just like Hong said, that guy’s brain is all muscles, so it’s really hard to recruit him.

"Who are you going to look for?"

As soon as Hong asked the question, she saw Dingzi draw a pattern on the table with his fingers. The pattern made Hong's heart beat wildly.

"Aren't you afraid that they will bite you back?"

"Don't be afraid, they are just a mob."

......

The days that followed were as peaceful as ever, and the village seemed to have no intention of causing trouble for Dingzi, but Dingzi himself was very clear that the village was still weighing the pros and cons.

The day after Hong left Ding Zi's house, she was sent out on a mission. It was a long-term mission to guard the border.

You can tell with your ass that this was done on purpose by the third generation.

During this period, the Third Generation sent a large number of spies to the Water Kingdom, and human lives were thrown into the Water Kingdom almost without cost. No one knew what their plan was.

Since their last meeting at the village entrance, Chouzi has never seen Naruto and Hinata again.

Hinata is fine, nothing should happen to her at home.

Naruto is in trouble. There has been no news since he was taken to the Root. Chouzi can often feel the Nine-Tails' chakra bursts, and then they are forcibly suppressed.

Ninja Cat brought some information to Dingzi.

Jiraiya was on his way back to Konoha.

However, nothing serious happened inside the village. The only victim was probably the Uchiha. The villagers' criticism of the Uchiha had already risen to the surface.

The Uchiha Guard Headquarters has been surrounded by villagers several times, and hundreds of rotten eggs have been thrown at them.

The Uchiha did not disappoint, and fought with an ordinary person and almost beat him to death. I heard that Shisui personally came forward to calm the situation.

Moreover, it was almost common knowledge that the Uchiha often held gatherings in the middle of the night, and the Uchiha did not seem to want to hide it, and the frequency of the gatherings was increasing.

More than half a year passed like this, and Konoha was already approaching midwinter.

On this day, an unexpected guest came to Dingzi's house.

When I opened the door, I saw a sunny and handsome young man standing at the door. He had a knife tied to his back and a small gift box in his hand. He bowed politely:

"Ding Zijun, long time no see. Sorry for disturbing you."
