"Slow!"
What can I say!
Grandma Chiyo quickly stopped their discussion.
"What right do you have to discuss where I will go? Shouldn't that be my own choice?"
Grandma Chiyo quickly regained the initiative.
She certainly didn't want to be sent to Kumogakure to experience the [ Lightning Oppression Horizontal Chop ].
"That's true."
" Chiyo, where are you planning to go? Don't tell us you're going back to Sunagakure."
"Actually, that works too. We can find a way to take Ban away."
" Kirigakure "
"?"
" Kirigakure "
Grandma Chiyo repeated it.
"Ah?"
Hozuki Gengetsu was completely bewildered.
He was clearly the only one among everyone present who didn't actively try to recruit Chiyo, so why should he?
"I heard that Kirigakure is developing quite well now, and they've started a seaside tourism industry. I haven't had a chance to wear the swimsuit I bought last time, so it's a good time to go and enjoy the Sunshine Beach."
Grandma Chiyo smiled shyly.
"Huh? Swimsuit?"
Upon hearing Grandma Chiyo's reasoning, everyone present couldn't help but shudder as they conjured up images of Chiyo's alluring figure in a swimsuit.
That's terrifying.
"Um, I remember your Land of Wind is also a coastal country, right? Why don't you just stay on the beach in your own Land of Wind instead of going back to Sunagakure? It's all the same."
Hozuki Gengetsu hurriedly tried to find a way to refuse Chiyo.
Let alone needing his help to protect us on our way to Kirigakure, even if we didn't need it, there would still be big problems.
The tourism industry in Kirigakure, which had been developing with great difficulty, already had relatively few visitors. When Grandma Chiyo lay down there, she attracted everyone's attention and caused them psychological distress.
Once this gets out, how will their tourism Kirigakure survive?
You're right.
Grandma Chiyo paused for a moment after hearing Hozuki Gengetsu's explanation, then pondered for a while before nodding seriously.
"Call--"
Hozuki Gengetsu relief.
"How could I not have thought of that? Our Land of Wind can develop tourism too! Then I definitely need to go to the Land of Water to see how you do it, experience it firsthand, record it, and try to learn from it."
Grandma Chiyo felt the burden on her shoulders had become heavier.
She really goes to great lengths for Sunagakure.
He devoted himself to the cause until his dying breath.
For the sake of Sunagakure's development, they were willing to endure the scorching sun, the rugged sand, and the icy sea.
Even at an advanced age, some people still eat seafood that can easily make them feel unwell or have gout.
Wow, that's amazing.
"..."
"Then it's up to you, Second Mizukage."
"I'm entrusting Grandma Chiyo to you."
"Stay here and don't move. We'll Past and call those guys from the Flying Thunder Array over, then we'll send you back to Kirigakure. Don't go back, lest Madara Uchiha notice something amiss."
The group quickly settled the matter by exchanging a few words.
Hozuki Gengetsu opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but having no reason to refuse any longer, he could only accept it helplessly.
So, Jiraiya and Hozuki Gengetsu stayed behind.
Rōshi and Hiruzen Sarutobi were responsible for going back to the village to find someone to bring over.
Leaving Jiraiya was a sign that the others were still worried about Hozuki Gengetsu.
After all, Hozuki Gengetsu didn't seem very interested in countering Madara Uchiha's plot.
One more person should stay behind, just in case.
Hiruzen Sarutobi and Rōshi arrived at the location of the Flying Thunder Array Squad. Coincidentally, Madara Uchiha and Ōnoki had also finished talking with Obito and appeared there as well.
The encounter between the two groups immediately created an awkward atmosphere.
Ōnoki planned to bring Madara Uchiha back to Amegakure and hand him over to the First Hokage to explain the situation, find a way to stop Uchiha Obito's actions, and at the same time, curb Madara's plot.
" Ōnoki, I knew you old codger were unreliable! You're planning to... take Madara somewhere!"
I knew you were into everything, seeing that you couldn't get Grandma Chiyo, you just wanted to elope with Madara Uchiha, right?
How can you face us? How can you face the trust the First Hokage placed in you?
You short, scrawny dwarf! You good-for-nothing! You mud-playing dwarf!
Rōshi unleashed a torrent of angry curses at Ōnoki.
" Rōshi, stop talking nonsense."
Someone just used Genjutsu on Madara and extracted a lot of confidential information from him.
The Shinobi World is in grave danger. I must take him to see the First Hokage, to Amegakure, and tell them what has happened here...
Despite his displeasure at Rōshi's questioning and insults, Ōnoki patiently explained.
"Did someone use Genjutsu on Madara?"
Rōshi and Hiruzen Sarutobi exchanged a glance, somewhat suspicious.
" Ōnoki, you didn't use Genjutsu on Madara yourself, then find out something and jump out to break the Genjutsu and pretend to be a good guy, did you?"
If I insulted you like that, normally you would have insulted me back long ago.
"You're so patient; you're obviously feeling guilty, aren't you?"
Rōshi asked in a sarcastic tone.
"... Rōshi, I've put up with you for too long! Fine, I'll ask you then, where is Grandma Chiyo! Where is Grandma Chiyo who was Danzo!"
Did you pocket the money, or did you never catch up with them at all? Why did you come back empty-handed?
Also, why did that old man, the Third Hokage, suddenly appear? Where are the others?
"Did you betray Rōshi, collude with Konoha Iwagakure, and conspire with that old Monkey, the Third Hokage, and Danzo, betraying Grandma Chiyo and the Second Mizukage?"
Ōnoki was also enraged. He floated up, pointed at Rōshi's nose, and started cursing.
Upon hearing Madara Uchiha's eyes Past turned to Rōshi.
Stopping Obito is now his top priority, but in any case, Grandma Chiyo's Life Transfer Technique is the best way for him to revive, and he must ensure that Grandma Chiyo is not intercepted.
Don't go through all that trouble to stop Obito, only to find that Grandma Chiyo has already given her one and only chance to someone else through the Life Transfer Technique.
Rōshi was stunned by the scolding.
The main reason is that when they came, they really hadn't thought about how to explain the matter of " Danzo kidnapping Chiyo " to Madara.
Because they never expected to encounter Madara in this place by such a coincidence.
" Rōshi, why aren't you cursing back at me? Are you feeling guilty? Huh?"
Seeing that Rōshi was stunned and speechless after being scolded, Ōnoki immediately launched a counterattack, using the same words Rōshi had just used against him.
" Third Tsuchikage, calm down. As for Danzo, I've already dealt with him and eliminated him. Grandma Chiyo has also been rescued, but..."
While the two were arguing, Hiruzen Sarutobi's brain raced, and he came up with a reason.
"However, Grandma Chiyo suffered too much trauma during our fight and unfortunately lost her memory."
We'd like to take Grandma Chiyo to the Land of Water Resort, to relax on the gentle beaches, and see if we can help Grandma Chiyo regain her memory.
