However, from the moment these foreign ninja stepped into the village, they would be kept under surveillance.
They had to ensure that these people would not cause trouble in the village until they left safely.
"I wonder if there'll ever be a day when I can openly visit Sunagakure. Your village's ninja would probably hate me to death, especially the puppet ninja."
"..."
You did have at least a little self-awareness.
Pakura, her face covered in black lines, chose to lower her head and avoid discussing the subject.
She feared that Jingyi was deliberately setting a verbal trap for her, guiding her into it.
Pakura fell silent, and Jingyi dropped the matter as well. He could swear to heaven that he had not intended to set a trap; it had merely been casual conversation. Yet Pakura was highly vigilant, immediately shutting up whenever a sensitive subject came up.
"Let's go."
After resting enough, Jingyi rose to his feet and led the two onward. A small number of puppets scouted ahead of the team and brought up the rear, clearing away any traces.
They traveled through the night. Only by returning to Konoha early and arranging everything could he leave for the Land of Iron without worries.
Wasn't this kid tired?
Glancing at Minato Namikaze, who was panting yet unwilling to stop walking, Pakura could not understand why the kid's perseverance was so strong.
His teacher was the same. His disciple was exhausted like a dog, yet he would not let him rest unless he truly could not continue.
Pakura had tried to persuade him, but Little Blondie would not listen to her.
"Traveling at such speed isn't good for a child Minato's age. It'll overdraw his physical abilities."
Left with no choice, Pakura went to Jingyi.
"???"
Are you kidding
