The boss arranged for them a private room very far away from the hall.

——Even if we really fight here, we can isolate the danger as much as possible.

Gaara was indifferent to this arrangement, Kakashi raised his eyebrows, and gave Kiyohiko a narrow look, who looked back inexplicably and said nothing.

Now that I have come to a local specialty restaurant, the first thing I should choose is the mutton pot that is listed at the top of the leaflet.Except for Kakashi and Akai, the people here today are all children, Kiyohiko decided to treat guests with a big wave of his hand—even if one of these "children" is estimated to become a new generation of fashion in a short time. film.

"I will solve the matter of the water pipeline as soon as possible, but how to persuade the daimyo of the Land of Winds depends on Gaara and you."

Qingyan propped his chin and said: "This is not a small sum of money, it must be approved by Daming at the beginning."

"We will do our best here, and Maji and Grandma Chiyo will also contribute."

Temari said with a somewhat surprised expression: "But I didn't expect you to be able to sneak into that rain country... and you can also purchase things from them."

"Nobody has a hard time with home delivery."

Qing Yan replied lightly: "The economic situation of the Rain Country is getting worse and worse, and they will not fail to grasp the opportunity that comes to their door."

"You obviously said that, but you almost didn't come back from the Land of Rain, did you?"

Hearing this, Kakashi couldn't help frowning and interjected: "Don't do such dangerous things in the future——"

"There's always something necessary that needs to be done."

Qing Yan didn't explicitly agree or refuse: "It's like a task always needs someone to perform it."

"..."

Kakashi cast a disapproving look.

"Well, you don't have to look at me that way. Next time, I will bring teammates who can escape with all their strength... The situation in the Kingdom of Rain really surprised me, and it was a bit beyond my expectations."

Kiyohiko bent his eyes and smiled: "It was thanks to you, Kakashi."

"So the situation in the Land of the Rain... Is Sansho Hanzo that bad?"

Failing to keep the topic going, Gaara volunteered the question he wanted to know the most.

"It's not so much that there is a crack in Sansho Hanzo's rule, it's better to say that the man is probably dead."

Qingyan rested his chin and speculated: "If he is still alive, it is absolutely impossible for Sanshoyu Hanzo to rule with an iron fist, allowing some people to play tricks in his territory..."

"There is currently no news of his death in the ninja world, maybe he was secretly killed."

Kakashi added.

"Or just like that Mizukage in the Water Country..."

Temari was keenly aware of something: "You mean that Sansho Hanzo may also be controlled?"

"Or someone disguised as him, these inferences are all possible."

But this discussion was too outrageous, and the three people in Yinsha Village seemed a little shocked.The prestige of Sanshoyu Hanzo, the younger generation doesn't know much about it, but as a demigod in the ninja world, he has been supporting the existence of the Kingdom of Rain alone, and it is too much to end up like this...

——In any case, when the information is not yet clear, the content that can be discussed is really limited.

After waiting for a while longer, Akai found this private room with the rest of his ninja.There was a little injury on Tian Tian's elbow, and the rest of the body also had more or less damage. Saii looked clean and refreshed, and it seemed that he hadn't been affected much.

"All passed, as expected!"

Maitekai suddenly raised his thumbs up, and flashed a mouthful of white teeth at everyone present: "This is youth! Uh... are there people from Hidden Sand Village?"

"I happened to meet at the entrance of the store, so I simply invited them over to eat together."

Kiyohiko briefly explained: "It's allied, it doesn't matter."

"After the second exam, all teams will have a day to rest."

Sai said: "Neither Yinnin Village nor Yuren Village sent people to participate in this exam, but in the small countries, Xiong Zhiguo and Tang Zhiguo have sent people this time, and some of them are not bad..."

His eyes fixed on Qingyan, his intention was very obvious: Do you need to get rid of him in the second exam?

Qing Yan: "...I have already left the village anyway, I am only responsible for bringing you here to ensure the personal safety of you people, and you don't have to regard me as the captain."

He stared into Sai's eyes: "The specifics of what to do is up to your own judgment."

"...my own, judgment?"

Sai showed a somewhat confused look: "Captain Kiyohiko, you should know the reason and purpose of my taking this exam..."

"But it's up to you to judge how to implement it?"

Kiyohiko spoke briefly and decided to give up the topic: "In short, just because you are Gen's subordinate, it doesn't mean that you can't mix your own thoughts when doing tasks. Master Danzo asked you to kill your own heart, but he didn't say that you should kill your own heart." By the way, kill your own brain..."

After all, the quality of life in Genbu is so poor, why not find a way to transfer to Anbe, Qingyan thought, but he didn't say this in front of the ninjas in Hidden Sand Village.

After chatting for a while, the barbecue began to be delivered one by one.

The high mountains of the land of earth have special spices for barbecue, and the blue sheep that only live in this area have a special flavor.

The iron cooking utensils were scorching hot, and the mutton slices of appropriate thickness were attached to them, steaming.The overall form of the cooking utensils is like a cone buckled in a pan, with mutton on the cone wall and other vegetables dotted on the bottom of the cone.

Because there were a lot of people eating, Qingyan ordered a lot of portions in one go, and for a while, the whole private room rang out the sound of sizzling oil.In addition to this kind of mutton pot, Qing Yan also ordered a few grilled mutton ribs, which were piled full on large leaves, forming a hill in the center of the dining table.

Kankuro looked very embarrassed: "Is this costing you too much..."

"Since it is Master Kiyohiko's decision, then just accept it with confidence, don't worry about the money issue."

Nankai Taro Chaozun, who was also sitting at the table, pushed his glasses lightly, and glanced at the foreheads of the ninjas present: "With Master Kiyohiko's talent, if you don't become a ninja, maybe you will gain more. .”

"That's right..."

Yaoken Fujishiro nodded his head from the side: "I have already suggested to the general that he retire from the ninja industry as soon as possible. Obviously, it is good to do something, and the god judge should be safe, but he still insists on choosing this dangerous industry. ..."

Everyone sitting here is a ninja, so they can only be dumbfounded in the face of this statement.Kuruma Yakumo stretched her neck curiously. Even if she tried her best, she must become a typical ninja. For the first time, she heard that some people are "more suitable for other professions" than ninjas. She couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

"—But Captain Kiyohiko, he should be a member of Anbe?"

Yakumo said curiously: "Since you have the strength to join Anbu, you should be considered the best among ninjas..."

Even though they have already reached this level of strength, they still say that they are "not suitable to be a ninja". For those who have tried their best to join Anbu but can't succeed, it is really heartbreaking.

"Whether you can do some things, whether you are good at it or not, and whether you want to or not are three completely different things."

Kiyohiko replied: "Being born in the Uchiha clan, I was destined to become a ninja. At the time of the Ninja World War, Konoha Village was short of people, and I couldn't help myself to pick and choose."

"There are seniors who are much stronger than me, such as Shisui. There are also talented juniors, such as Uchiha Itachi. According to the rules at the time, every family with secret ninjutsu must provide talents to Anbu and Genmo , At that time, I didn’t have many choices, either to join the Anbu, or go to the front line as a member of the police force. As for Gen, to be honest, I have never opened Sharingan, and Danzo-sama didn’t like it at the time. "

Speaking of this, the black-haired young man laughed at himself mockingly: "——My eldest brother and second brother both died on the front line. My mother didn't want me to follow the same path anyway, so I chose Anbu."

Then by chance, the situation changed, and he became the teammate of Kakashi and Tianzang.

The younger generation didn't know much about the ninja wars in the past, so they could only keep silent when they heard such a statement. On the contrary, Sai raised his eyes and looked at him twice more.

"Well, it's meaningless to discuss these things now, Neji and the others will start the second exam soon!"

Akai actively enlivened the atmosphere: "I don't know what the second exam is about..."

"It should be similar to Konoha, in the form of living in the wild."

Shayin Village has quite detailed information on this information: "There is an uninhabited mountainous area near here, and the test location should be there."

Mentioning the content closely related to oneself, the ninjas of the younger generation no longer had the heart to listen to the Anbu stories in the past, and immediately joined the discussion about the second round of the Chunin Exam.Qingyan rested his chin while listening and eating, and occasionally gave advice, and the host and guest enjoyed themselves for a while.

After signing the life and death certificate for the Chunin Exam, the next day.

All the students gathered near the no man's land in the mountains.The terrain and environment here are complex and changeable, and there are special aggressive beasts in the mountains. At the beginning, all the students were warned.

"This is the practice site for the second round of your Zhongnin exam. There are a total of twelve teams that can obtain pass certificates hidden in this mountain. If you leave this area with the pass certificate, you will pass the second test-this time Competition between teams is not prohibited in the exam, just like the agreement you signed before you came here, life or death are irrelevant during the exam time, you have a week to live in this mountain, search us and prepare in advance pass order."

The invigilator of the second test stretched out his hand to all the students, and there was a golden stone in the center of the palm. On the surface of the stone was engraved with the word "Order": "If you cannot leave the test area within the specified time, or Failure to find a pass is a failure of the exam."

"Then it will be up to me to announce the candidates' admission groups—"

"Are the current exam rules so complicated?"

Kiyohiko lowered his voice and asked Kakashi: "Is this the same for Konoha?"

"After all, it is a peaceful age, and there are many candidates for the competition. Konoha's last Chunin exam also opened the death forest as a practice field."

Kakashi also responded in the other side's ear.

Qingyan suddenly felt a lingering fear that he was lucky that he graduated early.

The attitude of the three people in Hidden Sand Village is frank, and all the candidates around can't wait to step back a few feet away from Gaara's radius. Near the Sai team is a ninja from the country of bears. The Peacock Magic Technique should not be underestimated either.

Neci's team was assigned to the other end of the practice field. Considering that Neci had white eyes and had an innate advantage in this kind of collection tasks, Qingyan was not too worried about the other party.

In addition, the Kingdom of Grass and the Kingdom of Chuan also sent candidates to take the Chunin exam this year. It is conceivable that the competition here will be very fierce.

——In any case, during this week, he can obviously have a vacation again.

Although it is not a time of war, the relationship between countries is still very tense. The Kingdom of Fire and the Kingdom of Earth are not allies, and the scope of action of all of them in this village is also very limited.

Of course, Kiyohiko did not intend to inquire about the secrets of the village like Yunin did in the past. Even if Muye Village really released such a mission, it is impossible for him to execute it. Thinking about it this way, the spare time during this period is very leisurely.

It was also arranged for Nankai Taro Chaozun and Yaken Toshiro to be outside the examination room area, while Kiyohiko himself returned to the station in advance, spreading out the sword account and planning to summon a new round of swords.

"—Ah Qing, do you have anything to ask your subordinates to do?"

Kakashi, who has been following Kiyohiko's footsteps lately, finally couldn't help but say: "This is not an ally like Hidden Sand Village, you just said that you will not make any more outrageous actions in the future..."

Is this guy usually like this personality?Or is it that after bringing in students, his personality changed a little...

Qingyan glanced at the other party with some surprise: "Do you have any other missions in Yanyin Village this time?"

"Ahaha, what are you talking about!"

The silver-haired Jonin bent his eyes with a smile, and pretended to be stupid because of his unclear attitude: "Speaking of tasks and so on, don't you all come here as teachers..."

Qingyan crossed his arms and looked up and down the other person's face. There was really no emotion on the face that only showed a quarter of the face, so he could only ask casually: "Are you doing any strange practice recently?"

"Ok?"

Kakashi was also happy to see his success. The other party finally gave up asking about "whether he still has a secret mission" - he couldn't directly say that it was because he was worried that this guy would suddenly do something outrageous in the land of earth and lead to a dead body in the wilderness. , so follow behind him all the time: "It's not a strange practice... Have you heard any rumors?"

"It was my retainers who saw you lying on the ground when passing by the training ground several times."

Kiyohiko narrowed his eyes and finally laughed out loud: "When I heard it, I thought it must be Kakashi's style of cultivation."

"...??"

What is "Kakashi-style training"!

As if knowing that the other party's eyes widened to ask something, Qingyan said calmly: "I always feel that your control of Chakra and your own physical condition are a bit too precise...every time you use your strength to Do, practice until the level of coma, are you practicing some dangerous forbidden technique?"

Rachel is actually a complex and dangerous ninjutsu. Kakashi's wrist is wrapped with a healing bandage all year round. One of the purposes is to resist the chakra that has changed the nature of the thunderstorm. Coupled with the ever-changing glare of Raeche, it will be difficult for people to aim at the target. Even with the dynamic vision assistance of Sharingan, it is possible to accurately achieve the assault.

Kakashi looked around vigilantly, and after confirming that no one was listening, he whispered in the other's ear, "It's about Sharingan."

"...!!"

This really surprised Qing Yan.

Anyone who has participated in the last Ninja World War and knows something about Kakashi Hatake will know that his Sharingan has always been at the level of ordinary members of the Uchiha clan——San Gouyu's Sharingan has the functions of insight eye, copy eye and hypnotic eye, and this kind of blood successor limit combined with the genius mind really made him shine on the battlefield, and even gave birth to "Copy Ninja Kakashi" title.

"This kind of thing should not be told to you by me, a foreigner..."

Kaka sighed pretendingly in a suit: "Sangouyu's Sharingan should have other forms, you should know about this, right?"

"...Why do you think I will know?"

The other party was suddenly alert.

"Although it's a good thing to be on guard all the time, it's really sad to think that you don't even believe me, Qing..."

Kakashi scratched his hair, but there was no trace of sadness on his face: "In the public file cabinet in Anbu, there is information about Uchiha Itachi's invasion of Konoha, since you know that I was defeated by Itachi once, you should know What kind of means did the other party use—Jiraiya-sama also sent back some information about Akatsuki, which also has a description of Uchiha Itachi."

With Kiyohiko's personality, these information must have been read over again, Kakashi bent his eyes, and joked at this guy: "If you want to deal with Itachi with such eyes, Konoha also There must be equal power — rather than waiting for someone to open Sharingan, it is more efficient for me to work harder myself.”

This sentence is obviously a reply to what Qing Yan said in the past, "Otherwise, you will come to be Hokage and figure out a way": "Then what about your side? I want to summon the sword again at the critical moment of the middleman exam, the purpose is..."

"Ah, well, the reason is very simple."

The black-haired young man spread out his knife account, and flipped through the long scroll for a long time: "—I kept you waiting, Xiaohuwan."

When he first heard this name, Kakashi thought he had pulled out a dagger again, but after the white light flashed, what appeared in front of him was a sword about the height of Ibiki.

"The sword forged under the protection of God Inari, Kokomaru, it is a great honor to see you again, my lord——after seven years, this is the first time I see you wearing such clothes, I can't help but It reminds me of when we just met."

The other party has narrow and long eyes, and looks like the name suggests, some sharp canine teeth like a fox.

"Well, actually, there is something I want to ask you..."

"Then first, Master Kiyohiko, don't you want me to introduce the one next to you?"

Kohomaru pointed at Kakashi who was on the sidelines: "The other party seems to want to introduce himself very much, and it has been a long time since I have seen other humans around you, Kiyohiko-sama, so I am somewhat curious."

? ?I don't want to introduce myself...

Kakashi suddenly felt a little baffled, but after all the other party had already said so, he raised his hand to say hello: "Kokomaru-kun... right? I am——"

"——I want to hear the introduction from Master Kiyohiko."

Xiaohumaru interrupted his statement with a smile.

Kakashi: "..."

He finally realized now that Qingyan's sword definitely has inexplicable hostility towards him-this is not the first time this has happened, and the favorability of this group of people towards him was negative from the beginning! !

Recently, he managed to get acquainted with the group of brats in Honmaru... Wait, why did he deliberately establish a good relationship with these guys? !

But he couldn't help but want to hear how the other party would evaluate him. The silver-haired guy said with a seemingly meaningless attitude: "Actually, it doesn't matter who introduces it. I have no objection here."

So Kiyohiko glanced at him, and introduced: "Well, Hatake Kakashi, the upper ninja of Konoha Village, he used to be my squad leader when he was in Anbe... Even in the entire ninja world, he is very respectable My ninja, Kohomaru, don't be so rude."

The last two sentences were addressed to Kohomaru, who was shocked when he heard that, bowed seriously to Kakashi, and called him "Kakashi" in a very honest manner. Your Excellency," looked extremely respectful.

——But it always makes people feel a little complicated.

Is it just the team leader and team members who were in the same unit in the past?You must know that Maitekai will always yell that they are "destined opponents", even though that guy Tianzang lives in the Anbu all the year round, he will seriously and trustfully call him Kakashi-senpai... When it comes to this guy, it's just A "respectable ninja"?

Kakashi's mind was filled with "this is it", that's it? ?

When they performed missions together back then, at least they had a fateful relationship...

It's just that geniuses like him, or this may be a common problem of genius ninjas, it is absolutely impossible for them to take the initiative to mention these "unscrupulous" topics.Not only will he not take the initiative to mention it, but he also has to let the guy in charge of rounding up the atmosphere in the team to liven up the atmosphere-even though Kakashi's personality has changed a lot over the years, but if he really wants to open his mouth to care about these details, it will probably take a Don't god.

...But the person who was in charge of activating the atmosphere in their team before was Qing.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that he wanted to change his clothes. If it was "Skaia" instead of "Kakashi", he would have a lot of freedom in speaking and doing things.But the next moment, he heard the person's supplementary explanation.

"From a very young age, I felt that this is what an ideal 'powerful ninja' should look like—on the road of ninja, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a 'long-awaited senior'."

Puff.

—— He heard the other party still have that smiling expression, and said frankly.

The author has something to say:

Kakashi: That's it?

Kiyohiko: More than that.

Kakashi: ! ! ! !
