Following Dodai's footsteps, Hagoromo and the others slowly entered Kumogakure.
What you see is a three-dimensional structure built against the mountain, with the buildings constructed in a stepped manner along the steep mountainside.
Hagoromo looked on with curiosity, after all, she had rarely seen such a sight.
Moreover, since it was built on the mountainside, the connections between the buildings rely on suspended walkways and suspension bridges.
Countless villagers from Kumogakure were already watching them from above.
"Are they from Konoha?"
"Yes, Forehead Protector and flag, it's definitely from Konoha."
"They're the ones who injured Killer B Bee?!"
"Is Lord Raikage planning to call them over and give them a good beating to vent his anger?"
Goodness...
Hagoromo, relying on her excellent hearing, took in these words.
Aside from the Genin who came to observe, who among those present was an ordinary person?
All eyes were fixed on the Dodai at the very front.
Those walking on the front Dodai naturally felt the gazes behind them.
He remained unfazed as he led Hagoromo Kumogakure.
He, the Dodai owner, didn't have that much power to silence the villagers.
Now, Dodai is more worried about whether Samui and Darui can stop the Raikage, this powder keg.
After all, they heard that Hagoromo was coming.
The Fourth Raikage A, was in tears, furiously declaring he was going to give Hagoromo a good beating.
After all, Killer B is still recovering from injury.
Even though Hagoromo had removed the Killer B Chakra's body, he was still barely alive when he returned.
If it weren't for the Eight-Tails' help, Killer B might not even be able to get out of bed right now.
And···
Dodai's gaze subtly drifted towards Hagoromo.
How fortunate Konoha was, having already had Minato Namikaze...
Although Minato Namikaze died not long after becoming the Fourth Hokage.
But now Konoha has Hagoromo, who is even younger than Minato Namikaze.
Amidst their own thoughts, Dodai finally led Hagoromo and the others to a place where they stopped.
This is a separate mountain peak, and it looks much like other places.
But... Hagoromo looked into the distance, where there was a huge, double-horned structure.
The outer wall is engraved with the word "".
It was surrounded by watchtowers and guarded by numerous personnel.
The Raikage Building?
Upon seeing Hagoromo's gaze, Dodai changed his previous silence.
He began to introduce himself to the people of Konoha.
Hagoromo glanced at it once and then paid no more attention.
After the introduction of the Dodai was completed, Hiruzen Sarutobi let the others go inside first.
Even if someone tells you the most enticing story in someone else's village, you still need to be cautious.
Dodai didn't mind; he just stood by and kept him company.
Sudden--
Swish--
Two whooshing sounds rang out.
Kakashi immediately stood in front of Hiruzen Sarutobi, his expression wary.
Shisui, who had been hiding in the crowd, also appeared behind Hiruzen Sarutobi at the same time, his standard longsword held horizontally in front of him.
Hagoromo Yi simply raised her hand, and instantly her Yang Release Armament covered both hands.
Two figures appeared beside Hagoromo, both looking at Hagoromo with disbelief.
Their attack was actually blocked?
A red-haired girl, about the same height as Choji, was about to draw her sword when Hagoromo glanced at her.
Apply a little force with your hand, bang!
The girl's long knife snapped in two, and the broken shards grazed her cheek, drawing blood.
Beside them, another boy, about the same age as the girl, immediately discarded his knife and led the girl away.
Only then did Hagoromo take a good look at the two people who were attacking him.
Karui Omoi
Although the two people in front of me are still young, I can still recognize them by their features.
"Outrageous! Karui! Omoi! What are you doing!"
Dodai, looking panicked, stood in front of Karui and Omoi, scolding them as he did so.
"Please wait a moment."
Hagoromo said calmly, "In the Shinobi World, attacking someone means being prepared to die."
The voice was calm, yet it sent a chill down Dodai.
He drew his sword against the guests he had invited in his own village.
While the Raikage wouldn't care about such formalities and face-saving, Dodai couldn't.
Kumogakure still needs to save face; they can't afford to make a fool of themselves at this time. With that in mind...
Dodai quickly bowed to Hagoromo and said, "I'm so sorry, these two children are Killer B's apprentices, so they acted impulsively."
Hagoromo raised an eyebrow. That was a beautifully said statement.
Child, impulsive.
Does that mean if he takes it to heart, then he's in the wrong?
When did the concept of children even exist in the Shinobi World? In the past, even six- or seven-year-old children had to go to the battlefield.
"Dodai! What are you afraid of! If he wants to kill me, let him come!"
Karui pushed away Omoi, who was pulling her, and bared her teeth at Hagoromo with resentment.
Looking at the fiery Karui in front of her, Hagoromo Yi felt a throbbing sensation in her temples.
If I remember correctly, isn't this Karui supposed to be Choji's future wife?
"Shut up!"
A cold voice came from behind, and footsteps gradually approached.
Samui walked over with a cold expression, her eyes fixed on Hagoromo.
Hagoromo raised an eyebrow. "Oh well, another one's after him."
Hiruzen Sarutobi watched everything with great interest, seemingly completely unconcerned about the current situation.
After a long while, Samui turned to look at Karui and Omoi, and said coldly:
"Apologize!"
These words made Tu Tai, who was standing to the Dodai, involuntarily breathe a sigh of relief.
Hagoromo watched with a nonchalant expression, knowing that a fight was never going to happen in the first place.
"On what grounds—"
Karui was about to refuse when Omoi covered her mouth.
Samui kept giving him meaningful glances, and his aura grew increasingly cold.
Karui felt a chill run down her spine, and then resignedly nodded.
Call--
Omoi let out a sigh of relief and quickly bowed to Hagoromo, apologizing, "Senior, I'm sorry!"
Karui looked furious, first glancing at Hagoromo, then at Samui.
Finally, under Samui's indifferent gaze, as if he had suffered a great humiliation, he bowed deeply to Hagoromo and shouted loudly:
"Sorry!"
"It's alright, I wasn't hurt at all, it's just that your knives broke."
Hagoromo shrugged and said nonchalantly.
Upon hearing this, Kakashi glanced at Hagoromo expressionlessly and muttered to himself.
Is this kid adding fuel to the fire?
These words aren't very hurtful, but they are extremely insulting.
Sure enough, Karui, who was already indignant, was about to speak when Omoi grabbed her arm and left without looking back.
Watching the two figures gradually disappear into the distance, Samui nodded to Dodai and Hiruzen Sarutobi before turning and leaving.
Dodai composed himself and continued to warmly welcome Hiruzen Sarutobi, Hagoromo, and the others inside.
To be honest, at least Dodai has a pretty good attitude.
Hagoromo Yi shook her head; the performance was far from satisfying.
