Kakashi waved his hand and disappeared instantly. Naruto was shocked and quickly let go of his perception. Just as Kakashi said, Hinata and Hinata were actually there, but for some unknown reason, he did not appear in public. , but stood very low-key in the corner of the venue, and even deliberately hid behind the pillars. If you didn't look at a specific angle from a specific location, you wouldn't be able to see it.

"Nah! Are you really here? No way?"

Naruto felt miserable. He originally thought that he would continue to reward Hinata after Kakashi left, but now he didn't dare.

Although even if he does it, it should be fine. After all, Hinata and Hinata have known about his relationship for a long time, and are even more supportive, but there is still a bit of psychological pressure, at least he doesn't dare to do it so blatantly.

"Naruto-kun? What's wrong with you?"

Seeing Naruto's sudden expression of sadness, Hinata couldn't help but ask. Naruto first shook his head, and then sighed.

"Nothing, Hinata, do you know what your father came here to do today?"

"Oh! Father, is father here? Where is he?"

Hinata was shocked and looked around hurriedly. Obviously she didn't know the reason, which made Naruto even more sad.

"No need to look for it. Your father is hiding behind the pillar. From this angle, we can't see it without rolling our eyes. So, Hinata, let's watch the game carefully first, and I will reward you alone later."

Naruto smirked and raised his eyebrows at Hinata. Hinata pursed her lips and didn't agree, but she didn't refuse either.

Except for the battle between Neji and Gaara, which Naruto watched carefully, the rest of the battles were boring. To him, they were just kids fighting, nothing interesting to watch.

After the game, the Third Hokage announced the official time of the game and then announced that it was over. After leaving the Forest of Death, Naruto and Hinata walked on the streets of Konoha, preparing to enjoy a good time together, but they didn't go far. An ANBU appeared on one knee in front of Naruto.

"Captain, Master Kakashi ordered me to send this."

The ANBU handed over a scroll with both hands. Naruto nodded and took the scroll. He was about to let the ANBU leave, but suddenly remembered something.

"Come with me, I have something else to do. Hinata, just wait here. I'll be right away."

Naruto led the ANBU member into the alley, and after standing still, the ANBU member knelt down on one knee again.

"Are you from the reconnaissance force?"

"Yes! I am the squad leader of the second squad of the first team of the reconnaissance force, codenamed 'Gray'."

"Just in time, I have something I need you to do. Some time ago, I noticed that Danzo leaked the list of ANBU members. Please take someone to check it out and look for evidence."

Hui, who had his head lowered, suddenly raised his head to look at Naruto. Even through the mask, it could be seen that he was very shocked at this time.

"You said the ANBU list was leaked?"

"Yes, Danzo is making a deal with the S-class traitor Orochimaru and betrayed the entire ANBU. I need you to find clues. It is of great importance. You go to the team leader. The team will do its best to deal with this matter. If you get into trouble, come directly to me."

"Then Kakashi-sama's side..."

Gray's attitude was very hesitant. Although Naruto was now his boss, to him, Naruto was "airborne" and had never really led him before.

What Naruto just meant made him misunderstand that he wanted to keep a secret from Kakashi. Kakashi has been working in the ANBU for a long time. His ability, experience, background, and strength are all recognized by the ANBU members, so he is very reluctant to keep it secret. Kakashi remained hidden.

Naruto naturally knew what this man wanted to say, and he never thought of hiding it from Kakashi from the beginning.

"You just need to report it to Kakashi truthfully, but there is one thing you have to remember and tell Kakashi. It is during the Chunin Examination. There are many foreigners in the village, so even if you find irrefutable evidence, don't hand it over. Hokage-sama, once the evidence is handed over to Hokage-sama, it will inevitably cause internal disputes. Being laughed at by foreigners is the second best. If someone takes advantage of the situation, it may put the village into crisis. Therefore, everything must wait until the Chunin Exam is over. After that, do you understand?”

"Understood! I'll do it now!"

Hui lowered his head heavily and sang loudly before disappearing. Naruto walked out of the alley as if nothing had happened and continued shopping with Hinata.

On the other side, Gray and Naruto came to the roof of the Hokage Building after parting ways. Kakashi stood on the roof looking at the streets of Konoha. There was an ANBU kneeling next to him. Gray immediately knelt down on one knee as soon as he arrived.

"Kakashi-sama!"

"Well, did you give the stuff to him?"

"Yes! In addition, the captain issued a mission to the entire team."

Kakashi knew very well how much Naruto disliked ANBU. He thought that even if he forced the reconnaissance team to him, he would only be perfunctory. However, he did not expect that the mission was assigned on the first day after the transfer of power, and it was not Not to one class, but to a whole team.

"Huh? Giving a mission to an entire small team? It's really strange. Tell me, what kind of mission is it?"

"The captain asked a small team to investigate Danzo-sama. The content is that Danzo-sama leaked the list of ANBU members to the S-class rebel ninja Orochimaru. I hope the small team can find evidence."

"Well, what else did he say?"

Kakashi was very calm, as if he had expected this incident. Hui was a little surprised, but he didn't dare to hide it at all.

"The captain said that it is now during the Chunin Examination. In order to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the situation, even if you find irrefutable evidence, do not hand it over to the Hokage. Everything will wait until the Chunin Examination is over."

"Yes, it should indeed be like this. Thank you for your hard work. You don't need to work too hard on this matter. The irrefutable evidence has been obtained by Naruto. You just need to keep an eye on Danzo."

"Already got it? Then why..."

"Haha, didn't he say that? It's the Chunin exam period now. If he takes out the evidence now, all the senior officials in the village will have a headache, right? Rather than doing this, it's better to press it first and let you investigate. Paralyze Danzo and make him feel that he is still just suspected."

As soon as these words came out, Hui's eyes widened, and his shocked eyes could be clearly seen through the two holes in the mask.

"That's it! I didn't expect that the captain would have such considerations."

"Ha! Of course, he is my most proud disciple. Okay, let's go. What should I say when I return to the team? I shouldn't need to teach you, right?"

"Yes!"

Hui responded and immediately returned to the Anbu. His heart was very hot all the way. He originally thought that this airborne leader did not have much ability. After all, he was just a child, and he still had the identity of a personal chūriki. But now It’s different.
