I am a member in Konoha

After hearing Sarutobi Hiruzen's words, Toshihiko was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Okay.. biqugev"

Not to mention that Hiruzen Sarutobi had something to discuss with him, regarding this mission to the Country of Whirlpool, Toshihiko, as the captain of the ANBU, naturally had to report what happened to the Hokage.

"Then... then I'll go see my aunt first~!"

At this time, Uzumaki Xia Wei also said very obediently.

Originally, Uzumaki Xia Wei thought about asking Toshihiko to accompany her, but now it seems that this may not be possible.

Moreover, it would not be good for Hokage-sama to stay here to listen to Toshihiko's discussion.

"Okay~!" Junyan nodded lightly.

Soon, under the leadership of ANBU members, Uzumaki Xia Wei left the Hokage's office.

"Tell me about this experience in the Kingdom of Whirlpool."

Seeing Xia Wei leave, Sarutobi Hiruzen picked up the pipe on the table again, took a deep puff, and asked slowly.

Hearing this, Toshihiko also truthfully reported the mission to Sarutobi Hiruzen. After all, this was his duty.

"Gui Deng Jing Yue, that's interesting. I guess this old guy never imagined that one day he would end up in such a situation."

Regarding the speculation about the Kirigakure Village's attack on the Country of Whirlpool, Toshihiko already knew about it when Toshihiko mobilized ANBU information about the Oniden clan from Konoha.

However, he never expected that the prisoner held captive by the Kingdom of Whirlpool for such a long time would be the former leader of the Ghost Lantern Clan, Ghost Lantern Jingyue.

He had a deep impression on this old guy Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Haruka remembers that many years ago, a ninja team composed of Sarutobi Hiruzen, Danzo, and Uchiha Kagami went all the way to the Kingdom of Water to hunt down a Konoha traitor.

Based on the clues, they easily discovered the traces of this rebellious ninja.

I thought I could annihilate them smoothly, but who would have thought that the traitorous ninja had already carefully planned everything, not only joining Kirigakure Village, but also setting up traps to annihilate these three Senju Tobirama disciples in one fell swoop.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Danzo realized something was wrong and did not step into the opponent's circle.

But even so, the three of them were still pursued by the Hidden Mist Village.

And that time, the leader of Kirigakure's pursuit was Gui Deng Jingyue, the leader of the Gui Deng clan.

I thought they were being hunted down like lost dogs, but they didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, the other party had become a prisoner of Konoha.

I have to say that fate is really magical sometimes.

"Okay, let's put the matter about Gui Deng Jingyue aside for now. I have other things to discuss with you."

Anyway, now that Onito Seizuki is a prisoner of Konoha, Sarutobi Hiruzen has plenty of time to play with him.

You must know that as the former clan leader of the Ghost Lantern clan, the value of Ghost Lantern Jingyue is very high.

Not to mention that he knew many unknown secrets of Kirigakure Village, the secret technique of the "Water Transformation Technique" mastered by the Oni Lan clan alone was enough for Sarutobi Hiruzen to take it seriously.

"what's up?"

"As for the ANBU recruitment expansion, of course, it is only on a small scale. It is mainly to make up for the number of people in your team. Anyway, you are also the captain of the seventh ANBU team now. How many people will be recruited and who will be recruited? I feel like I have to tell you Let’s discuss if you have any specific candidates.”

Looking at Toshihiko, Sarutobi Hiruzen said softly.

"Selecting new people to join the ANBU? I don't have any objections. Everything depends on the arrangement of my senior brother." Toshiyan said after pondering for a moment.

If it were another time, Toshiyan might have recruited some familiar guys into their team, but now it seems that there is no one worth recruiting.

If that's the case, it's better to let Sarutobi Hiruzen decide for himself.

"Since you said so, then I will make arrangements directly when the time comes?" Sarutobi Hiruzen pursed his lips and looked at Toshihiko in a questioning manner.

"Okay." Junyan nodded directly.

To be honest, Toshihiko was not very interested in the arrangements of ANBU personnel, but for some reason, he always felt like he was being tricked.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but my senior brother seemed to be relieved when he saw that he showed an indifferent attitude.

"Okay, let's leave it like this for now. I'll let you know about the personnel arrangements when the time comes."

As if he was deeply afraid that Toshihiko would regret it, Hiruzen Sarutobi quickly made his decision this time.

Although there were still doubts in his heart, Toshiyan said no more.

Later, after leaving the Hokage's office, Toshihiko also walked towards his home.

No one?

After pushing open the door, Toshiyan was slightly surprised to see that there was no movement at all in the room.

Originally, he thought that Hinata Ningyue would be at his home.

After all, every time Toshiyan went out on a mission in the past, Hinata Ningyue would choose to stay at his house and clean the house by the way.

But this time when I came back, not only did I not see Hinata Ningyue, but judging from the traces in the house, it seemed that no one had been here for a while.

Although he was a little confused, Toshiyan didn't think much about it. As for cleaning, he really wasn't interested at the moment.

After all, he had just returned from the Kingdom of Whirlpool and needed a good rest.

So after taking a hot bath, Toshiyan chose to sleep.

After waking up, Toshihiko also received an invitation from Senju Tobirama.

It's nothing serious, just have dinner together.

Needless to say, this dinner was naturally intended to cleanse Xia Wei of the whirlpool.

And when Toshihiko arrived at Senju Tobirama's home, he saw Uzumaki Mito on the sofa. Tsunade and Uzumaki Natsu could only talk and laugh.

Putting aside Tsunade, it can be seen from the expressions on Uzumaki Natsu Wei and Uzumaki Mito that the aunt and nephew who met for the first time are very happy with each other.

As for Toshihiko's arrival, both Uzumaki Xia Wei and Tsunade seemed very happy, and Uzumaki Mito also showed a loving smile.

However, her eyes would move back and forth on Toshihiko, Tsunade, and Uzumaki Xia Wei from time to time, which made Toshihiko feel a little pressure inexplicably.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Senju Tobirama called him into the study.

Although he had already learned about Toshihiko and others' experiences in the Country of Whirlpool from Sarutobi Hiruzen.

However, he still personally asked Toshiyan about some details, especially about the post-processing of Ghost Lantern Jingyue.

It can be said that Toshihiko and Senju Tobirama talked a lot that night. After dinner, Toshihiko went home alone.

As for Uzumaki Xia Wei, she was naturally arranged to live in the Senju Clan's residence.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, five days passed.

During these five days, Toshihiko had a very relaxed time. He spent most of the time with Uzumaki Xia Wei and occasionally took time to train.

On the same day, Toshihiko also received the recruitment notice for ANBU personnel.

After all, this time is to add members to Toshiyan's team. As the captain, he naturally has to be there.

Including Hatake Sakumo and others, because they are also curious about who their future teammates will be.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, ANBU was stationed.

In the dimly lit cave, three new ANBU members stood in a row at the meeting point.

Everyone had a serious expression on their face.

After all, being able to enter the ANBU is an honor for the ninjas of Konoha.

Soon, accompanied by Hatake Sakumo and others, Toshihiko also arrived at the meeting point.

However, the moment he saw the three newcomers, Toshiyan's expression suddenly changed.
