Returning to the Village

On the other side, Kakashi and the others, who had already left some distance behind, also heard the commotion from behind them and abruptly stopped.

Turning around to look, a solemn expression flashed across their faces!

They were already some distance away from there, and they couldn't sense what was happening at all.

They could only judge by the commotion that reached them...

"That kind of commotion, could it be the secret technique Yei was talking about? What exactly did he do?" Asuma looked in that direction, but because of the distance, they weren't very clear about what was happening there.

But the commotion that came over was so loud that they couldn't help but stop.

"I hope Yei-senpai is alright?" Shisui also became a little worried.

Although Kakashi was also worried, in order to reassure Asuma and Shisui, he affirmed, "He'll definitely be fine! Believe in Yei, he's not someone who exaggerates!"

Asuma and Shisui exchanged a glance, and now they could only believe in Yei.

Without hesitation, their figures flashed and they continued forward.

After another distance, Shisui, who was being supported and had his eyes closed, suddenly spoke, "Someone is catching up."

Among the three of them, his perception was the strongest.

"Hmm?" Kakashi and Asuma both looked solemn.

Asuma quickly asked, "Is it Yei?"

Shisui shook his head slightly and said, "My perception comes from my Mangekyo Sharingan. It's not as refined as Yei-senpai's Byakugan. I can only sense a rough idea, and I can't determine their identity."

Shisui's perception came from his own Mangekyo Sharingan and did not have the ability to identify enemies.

In the ninja world, apart from a few sensing techniques that can accurately determine a person's identity, most other sensing techniques are only for warning, probing, and judging Chakra levels!

Shisui's perception is somewhat different from Yei's Byakugan and Observation Haki...

Hearing Shisui's words, Kakashi and Asuma instantly became vigilant.

"It's Yei!" However, after seeing that the person catching up from behind was Yei, joy appeared on their faces!

They quickly stopped and waited in place.

Yei had long since sensed them. Seeing them stop, he also quickened his pace and joined up with them.

Asuma looked at Yei, sized him up, and hurriedly asked, "Yei, are you alright?"

Kakashi and Shisui also looked at Yei.

"I'm fine." Yei shook his head. He was indeed fine, but his Chakra was a little over-depleted and he needed time to recover.

"What did you do just now? Why was the commotion so big? We could hear it even from this far away." Kakashi looked at Yei. The commotion just now was indeed not small, and they could hear it clearly even here!

What kind of Ninjutsu could cause such a powerful commotion?

"I just held them back for a moment. Some accidents happened later. The Three-Tails revived in that lake. It was also because of this reason that I was able to escape smoothly!" Yei said, omitting some details and not intending to explain too much.

When Kakashi heard the name Three-Tails, his eyes suddenly flickered. "Three-Tails?"

Rin Nohara's death was partly due to the Three-Tails!

At that time, Rin Nohara was framed by Madara Uchiha, who implanted the Three-Tails Tailed Beast into her body. In order to protect Konoha from being destroyed by the Three-Tails, Rin actively chose to die under Kakashi's Lightning Blade!

This was also a wound in Kakashi's heart, an indelible wound!

That's why Kakashi reacted a little when he heard the Three-Tails...

"Yes, it's the Three-Tails. I didn't expect the Three-Tails to revive at this time..." Yei knew Kakashi's past and didn't say too much.

"A Tailed Beast..." Asuma also raised an eyebrow. He didn't expect to hear the news of a Tailed Beast's revival at this time. He hurriedly said, "This matter is of great importance and must be reported to the village as soon as possible!"

"Let's hurry back to the village, don't delay." Kakashi just said, but his mind was already elsewhere...

Asuma and Shisui also saw Kakashi's abnormality. The two exchanged a glance, both with some doubts in their hearts, but they didn't say much. Their figures flashed and they sped up.

The matter of Rin Nohara was not spread in the village, and only the higher-ups of Konoha knew the specific situation...

So it was normal that Asuma and Shisui didn't know.

However, they didn't think too much about it, just assuming that Kakashi was thinking about the Three-Tails.

After all, they knew very well what Tailed Beasts were. To put it exaggeratedly, they were powerful weapons that could determine the rise and fall of a Ninja Village!

This matter needs to be reported to the village as soon as possible!

After a few people rested briefly in one place and recovered some Chakra, they set off again and returned to Konoha in a few days.

Yei didn't need to worry about the mission. All the details of the mission would be reported to the Fourth Hokage by Kakashi, the Jonin leader.

After leaving the Hokage Administration Building, Yei returned to his home, took off his Anbu uniform, and left his house to go to Hyuga Yue's house.

Every time he returned to the village from a mission, Yei would go to Hyuga Yue's house at the first opportunity to report that he was safe, so as not to worry Hyuga Yue and Aunt Yami.

He familiarly pushed open the door of Hyuga Yue's house and walked in.

Seeing Yei return, Aunt Yami's face showed undisguised surprise: "Little Yei, you're back from your mission, are you not injured?"

"It's okay, Aunt Yami. This was just a small mission. I'll be back in a few days." Yei waved his hand, indicating that he was not injured.

This mission needed to be kept secret and could not be revealed to others.

"It's good that you're alright; we've been worried sick these past few days." Aunt Yami smiled, relieved that he was safe. She was just an ordinary person who had already lost her husband and didn't want to see any more family members leave.

That's why she was always incredibly worried every time Yei went on a mission.

"Sorry for making you worry," Yei said with a relieved smile, then asked, "Is Yue inside?"

Aunt Yami smiled and pointed inside, saying, "Yes, she should be in the training ground right now. You should go tell her you're back; she's been very worried about you too."

Yei nodded and walked inside, "Then I'll go in."

"Okay, go ahead. Oh, Yei, is there anything you want to eat? To celebrate your safe return, Auntie will make you something delicious."

"I want to eat the ramen you make, Auntie."

"Alright."

"..."

After a brief chat with Aunt Yami, Yei walked into the training ground inside the courtyard and saw Hyuga Yue practicing Gentle Fist.

Her slender figure was sweating under the sunlight. Each punch was accompanied by a soft shout, her eyes were very focused, and sweat soaked her sideburns and thin clothes, outlining Hyuga Yue's slender and beautiful figure, looking delicate yet heroic!
