Conversation and Teaching

The Snow Ninja who had come to notify him earlier.

Was merely an ordinary Genin.

Naturally, it was impossible for him to convey any important information to Karin.

And as soon as Karin returned, she went straight to Naruto's office.

After the pleasantries.

It was time to cut straight to the point.

"It was quite a bountiful harvest. Not only did we defuse the ticking time bomb in the Land of Water, but the Six-Tails and Three-Tails have also successfully joined our ranks!"

Naruto certainly wouldn't hide anything from Karin, Neji, Yakumo, and the others.

In fact, even with Taizan and Fushimi.

Naruto didn't mind sharing a bit more.

Even if they couldn't be called friends due to the difference in status, Taizan and Fushimi were among the people Naruto trusted most in the Snow Ninja Village right now. As high-ranking figures in the village, they were naturally privy to certain secrets; they simply kept to their duties, and since their leader hadn't spoken, they hadn't asked.

Naruto could more or less grasp their mindset.

Some things.

Naturally, there was no need to say too much.

It could be considered one of the standard modes of interaction between a "leader" and a "subordinate."

"We obtained both the Three-Tails and the Six-Tails!?"

Naruto's words.

Clearly shocked Karin.

Originally, the girl had thought that her Naruto would be doing well just to secure one Tailed Beast, or perhaps just resolve the minor issues in the Land of Water while only attempting to make contact with the beasts. Not to mention that it was Kirigakure's sphere of influence, the most important point was that Tailed Beasts weren't exactly easy to persuade, right?

The same went for their Jinchuriki!

She hadn't expected this.

The surprise.

Was truly more than just a little bit!
