When Hatani was guiding Shimizu step by step, Itachi, who returned to Anbu, had been summoned to the Naruto office.
"Itachi, have you already opened the Maneidoscope Sharingan?"
Sarutobi Hinako didn't have any twists and turns, and went straight to the subject, looking at Itachi and asked in a low voice.
Itachi was shocked when he heard this. The fact that he opened the kaleidoscope had actually been leaked.
Are there any other spies in the clan besides me?
"It was Bo Gu who told me."
Itachi's thoughts, or rather, it was because he knew it would have such thoughts in his mind that Sarutobi Hiruzen, who asked Itachi so directly, looked at his eyes and spoke slowly.
"yes."
But what surprised Sarutobi Hinato was a little disappointed, and hesitated in his heart was that after hearing his words, Itachi immediately admitted without any hesitation or hesitation.
He naturally would not have thought that Haga had told Itachi before that appropriately showing his strength would also help solve the problems of the Uchiha clan.
Therefore, Itachi regarded his provocation as a way for Hatani to worry that he was too low-key and took the initiative to show his strength.
"Why did Hoku know that you have turned on the Maneidoscope Sharingan?"
Sarutobi Hinazon, who was waiting for Itachi to tell him about the ability of the Manepedikage Sharingan to him like Shimizu, saw Itachi fall into silence after responding, and his heart sank, then frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice.
"Because I encountered Uchiha Madara when I left the village to perform a mission last night. If it weren't for the timely appearance of Hoku and Shishui, I'm afraid I'd have encountered an unexpected situation."
Itachi, who had already discussed countermeasures with Shishui, immediately spoke up.
"Uchiha Madara?!"
Hearing this name, Sarutobi Hinazun's expression suddenly became nervous again, but immediately, this tension turned into suspicion.
He was almost convinced that last night, Danzo and his elite soldiers were killed by Hokuya-United Shimizu and Itachi, but he had never found any evidence.
That being the case, then Uchiha Madara...
"Has he actually appeared again?"
He was suspicious in his heart, staring at Itachi and asked with a worry.
"yes."
Itachi nodded and explained.
"I was originally planning to report this to Master Sandaimu last night, but..."
Sarutobi Hinari's face froze, but soon returned to normal, and asked with a worried look on his face.
"What do you think is the reason why Uchiha Madara is frequently present near the village now?"
"I think it should be for the Sharingan."
Itachi replied immediately.
"Whether it was luring Senior Kakashi out of the village or appearing to attack me last night, his purpose should be to seize the Sharingan."
Sarutobi Hina nodded when he came to life, but he had already concluded that it was an excuse that Itachi, Shimizu and Hatano joined forces to relieve them and clear their suspicion.
"Is there any abnormal movement in the Uchiha clan?"
Unwilling to continue listening to Itachi's "lie" about Uchiha Madara, he returned to the topic of summoning Itachi.
"Such a major change happened last night. There should be many people in the Uchiha clan who are already ready to move, right?"
Itachi's face under the mask couldn't help but change, but his tone was still trying his best to maintain stability and replied in a deep voice.
"Yes. However, Zhishui and I have temporarily suppressed them, and there should be no problem in a short period of time."
"You and Zhishui?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen was stunned at first, then sighed softly.
"Hey, the pressure on your shoulders is really too great."
However, he only sighed, helping to share the burden, or directly alleviating this pressure for the two of them, let alone specific measures, even if he was too lazy to draw a cake on his mouth.
A helplessness and grief flashed in Itachi's lowered eyes.
‘Sure enough, what Bogu said before was right.’
However, after slightly looking up at the increasingly obvious old-fashioned spots on Sarutobi Hinata's face, the helplessness and grief in his heart turned into hope.
Five years, up to ten years.
As long as the students of Tobirama Senju have passed away, the Uchiha family's problems may be solved.
Ten years, you and Zhishui should be able to persist for ten years!
Bar?
Since Orochimaru defected but failed to stop him, Jiraiya fell into deep self-blame.
Therefore, in order to find Orochimaru's traces, to save his mistakes, and to find the son of prophecy mentioned by the Great Toad Fairy, he embarked on a journey to travel to the ninja world.
Over the years, he had traveled all the small countries around Cao, Taki, Tie, Tang and other small countries.
So he reached the end of the Kingdom of Song two years ago. After arriving at the beach, he simply took a sea boat and went to other countries overseas to continue his journey.
The sea is far wider than the land. Along the way, he saw the magnificent sea scenery and experienced the customs and humanities that were completely different from those of the countries on the mainland. He even unfortunately entered the storm on the sea and almost died in the storm.
Finally, after almost all the major overseas countries had been traveling, he returned to this familiar ninja world continent.
However, when he left the Ninja World Continent by boat from the northeast, he returned this time, and landed on the beach on the edge of the Wind Kingdom in the southwest.
He had already planned the next route in his mind:
Cross the Kingdom of Wind, and then go to the legendary ancient Loulan Kingdom in the extreme west, and travel eastward, traveling around the country of swamp, ghost and other mysterious countries.
Finally, after passing through the countries sandwiched between the Wind Kingdom and the Land Kingdom, such as the Bear Kingdom, the Bird Kingdom, and other countries, returning to their hometown, Fire Kingdom, relieved their homesickness, and headed straight to the Kingdom of Tang, going to those white ponds to obtain materials, and accumulate materials for the next novel.
However, when he left the bustling area of ​​the narrow seaside of the Wind Kingdom, the wind and sand in the sky immediately tore the beauty in his mind.
He originally wanted to travel in the Wind Country for a few more days, but immediately gave up on this idea and just wanted to leave as soon as possible.
After all, what he valued most during his travels was all kinds of people he met on the road.
But in this desert where there is no end, let alone people, there are very few living creatures that can be seen.
There is only endless, as if even the tongue is completely covered with sand.
Jiraiya, who was struggling to move forward with the wind and sand in the sky, finally saw a larger oasis and confirmed that it was not a mirage. He immediately rushed into the oasis with an amnesty with a look of ecstasy.
He found a tavern well, swept open the curtain and walked in, and then shouted loudly at the counter.
"Give me a pot of sake and two dishes of side dishes."
