Naruto, the strongest Uchiha from signing in.

The next day, in the Hidden Mist Village.

The thick fog never dissipates all year round, and the water vapor and humidity in the air kept Huayue awake all night.

He fought with Kirigakure several times on the battlefield, and countless Kirigakure ninjas died at his hands. Even among the Kirigakure Anbu, which was always known for its coldness and ruthlessness, some of them could not avoid revealing a hint of murderous intentions.

The Anbu are also human. Even if they are ninjas and can control their emotions, they still cannot avoid showing their emotions when they see the enemy who killed their relatives, friends, or even lovers standing in front of them.

There was a gentle knock on the door, and a bare hand opened the door, revealing Mei Terumi with a smile on her face.

"Are you still used to it?"

"Not very good, too strong, whether it's water vapor or murderous aura."

The straightforward answer made Terumi Mei slightly stunned, and then she put on that gentle smile again.

"The Land of Water is just such a country. It is an island country made up of many archipelagos, so it is inevitable that the moisture is strong and cannot compare to the environment of Konoha."

Avoiding the topic of murderous intent without leaving a trace, the two chatted idly until the hazy sunlight came through the window and the Fourth Mizukage appeared with several Kirigakure jonin.

As for Xiguashan Pufferfish Demon and Biwa Juuzou, if they were asked to come and feign friendship with the enemy who had taken away the ninja sword, it would probably turn into a scene of declaration of war.

"Armistice agreement, return the ninja sword to us."

Karatachi Yagura decisively threw the armistice agreement in front of Huayue, not wanting to get too involved with this Konoha peace ambassador.

"That's it. In the Third Ninja World War, Konoha and Kirigakure have declared a ceasefire. The Ninja Swords will be returned to you."

The plain white scroll was unfolded, white mist swirled, and seven ninja swords fell to the ground, making a ping-pong sound, and were thrown aside by Huayue as if they were garbage.

"Well, mission accomplished, we'll talk again when we have the chance."

The figure disappeared, leaving only a wisp of the fragrance of grass and trees. Terumi Mei looked up to the sky and sighed, gritting her teeth.

"What do you mean we can talk again when there's a chance? He didn't even leave any contact information! Damn it, even if I take a closer look, he is indeed a good man and he looks very cute..."

"But, but, at least give me your contact information before you leave!"

The Fourth Mizukage's mouth twitched, realizing that this guy was being neurotic again, so he simply ignored Mei Terumi and turned around to give orders.

"Start the selection ceremony for the Seven Ninja Swordsmen. Hand over the beheading sword and Samehada to Biwa Juzo and Xiguashan Pufferfish Demon, and tell them..."

His eyes turned cold, and the terrifying murderous aura emanating from that baby face made the two Mist Hidden Ninjas behind him feel cold all over.

"If it happens a second time, don't come back alive."

The inheritor of the will of the Third Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, who shocked the Blood Mist Hidden in one fell swoop, is actually much more powerful than his harmless baby-faced appearance would suggest.

A Jinchūriki who changed his career late and was able to subdue the tailed beast without any communication with the Three-Tails. If he had not encountered the Mangekyō Sharingan, which was his natural enemy, he would have been destined to have very few rivals in the entire ninja world.

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

In the Hokage's office building, Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned, put down the armistice agreement in his hand, and sighed heavily.

"What's the matter with trespassing into the Jōnin meeting in the Hidden Mist Village?"

"That was because Kirigakure was dragging their feet and had no sincerity. In order to speed up the mission, I used Flying Thunder God to go there directly and only destroyed a wall in the process."

"If you don't give me a response within 24 hours, it will be regarded as a declaration of war against Konoha again?"

"Every second of delay means that a Konoha ninja is likely to be killed on the battlefield. I do this for the lives of my companions."

"What about forcing the female jonin of the Hidden Mist to stay awake until the middle of the night?"

"Nonsense, there's no such thing as coercion, Mei Terumi did it voluntarily!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was so angry that he took a deep puff of smoke. After calming himself down, he couldn't help but sigh, with resentment in his eyes.

"That's enough, really. Even if you are popular with the opposite sex, you should pay attention to the occasion and the impact. Your words and actions represent the majesty of Konoha and the Land of Fire..."

"Also, how did you do that?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen asked stealthily, and Kagetsu looked confused before suddenly realizing.

"Oh! This is a very simple thing. Just take off the mask and talk about your interests and hobbies, and then wait for the other party to take the initiative, isn't that enough?"

Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed even more, what's wrong with the young people nowadays? When he was young, he spent a lot of effort chasing Lake Biwa...

Before the Third Hokage could sigh about the passing of time, a knock on the door interrupted his thoughts. When the visitor came in, he saw the familiar black cloak and flaming fan, and a hint of suspicion flashed in his eyes.

"Third Hokage, this is my note. I'm sorry to have to ask you to come back at this time..."

Turning his head, Nara Shikaku, who was always known for his brain, actually asked for leave from the Third Hokage, which was rare. Huayue's eyes flickered, and all kinds of dark thoughts flashed through his mind.

However, the next second, Sarutobi Hiruzen's words instantly made Kazuki, who thought Orochimaru's secret experiment was exposed and was about to send Nara Shikaku to investigate, twitch his mouth.

"As the head of the Nara clan, getting married when the war is over can also dilute the shadow of war and contribute to the village getting out of the shadow as soon as possible. Hahahaha!"

"No more joking, I wish you a happy wedding in advance..."

Nara Shikaku also had a smile on his face, which reminded Huayue that the baby boom in Konoha Village would probably happen in the next few years. Thanks to Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression, he thought that the Third Hokage had finally decided to kill Orochimaru.

"Come to think of it, we were still in the middle of a war, so there was no time to express gratitude. If we have time, why don't we have a drink together? It just so happens that Haiyi wants to talk to you, too."

At this moment, Nara Shikaku seemed to remember Kazuki, who had no sense of existence or was actively restraining her presence. He extended an invitation, but was rejected outright.

"I refuse. You can invite me again when you are old enough to go to a pub. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave now."

The door was closed and Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head repeatedly.

"He has the same personality as Orochimaru, he is mysterious all the time and has absolutely no youthful vigor..."

His eyes swept over the letter, and he remembered Huayue's self-righteous attitude just now. Sarutobi Hiruzen twitched his mouth and put it away silently.

"After all, they are geniuses. With more geniuses, the village will be more stable, and new sprouts will grow."

Shikaku's words made Sarutobi Hiruzen look dazed, and he couldn't help but think of his young disciple holding a snake skin in his hand in front of the martyr's tombstone.

"Genius..."

On the other hand, in the Land of Wind, in the Sand Village.

"Is this the condition offered by the Hidden Mist Village?"

Luo Sha closed his eyes and rested, various thoughts flashed through his mind, and finally he nodded slightly.

"There is nothing we can do. The village can no longer withstand a large-scale war. For the sake of peace in the village, we have no choice but to sacrifice her."

In the hands of many Sand Shinobi council members, the Scorch Release Ninja, Ye Cang, who was hailed as a hero of Sand Shinobi, was quietly marked for death.

The so-called heroes are just props that can be discarded when needed.
