On the other side of the front hall, Asura and Indra walked over from the hot pot restaurant.
Asura looked around.
Hashirama?
Izuna did not answer.
Indra also discovered the problem.
At this time of day, Madara and Hashirama are usually either playing cards in a card room or drinking in a tavern.
Both of them disappeared today.
Even Tobirama wasn't at the bar organizing the accounts.
"Madara and Tobirama are not here either."
Indra walked to the bar.
Where did they go?
Izuna lowered his voice.
"Keep your voices down."
Asura moved closer.
What did they go to do?
Izuna glanced at the tavern entrance.
"Ban and the others must have gone out with the boss."
"And this trip might take a month."
Asura was stunned.
"A month?"
"Isn't the boss going to find Tsunade?"
"They went to look for it too?"
Izuna shook his head.
"Ban didn't tell me."
All I know is that none of the three of them are at the tavern.
"They probably followed us secretly."
After hearing this, Asura immediately took out the Tavern Chat Group.
"Let me ask."
Izuna's expression changed.
"Etc!"
Asura has already started sending messages.
Asura Otsutsuki: " Hashirama Senju."
Asura Otsutsuki: "Where did you go?"
Asura Otsutsuki: " Madara Uchiha, @Tobirama Senju."
Asura Otsutsuki: "Did you three secretly follow the boss out?"
Asura Otsutsuki: "It'll take a month to travel, why didn't you take us with you?"
Several messages appeared in the group chat in succession.
Izuna closed his eyes, not wanting to see anymore.
Indra stared at the group chat messages and remained silent for two seconds.
" Asura."
"What's wrong?"
This is the Tavern Chat Group.
"I know."
"Everyone in the group can see this."
Asura nodded.
"Of course I know."
Indra pointed to the group members at the top.
" Zhang Yu is here too."
Asura's hand stopped abruptly.
He looked down at the messages he had just sent.
Then he looked at Indra.
"Can the boss see this too?"
What do you think?
Asura's expression changed.
"I thought the boss wouldn't check the group chat after leaving the house."
Indra raised his hand and pressed it to his forehead.
"Chat groups are not limited by distance."
Izuna reopened the ledger.
"You're going to get them killed."
On the other side.
In the woods, the chat group notifications Hashirama vibrated continuously.
He opened it, glanced at it, and immediately stopped in his tracks.
Madara and Tobirama also checked the message at the same time.
The three people stood on the tree branch, and none of them spoke.
A moment later, Madara sent out a series of speechless emojis.
Madara Uchiha: "..."
Hashirama Senju: "..."
Tobirama Senju: "..."
Upon seeing the reply, Asura immediately confirmed his guess.
Asura Otsutsuki: "You guys were indeed following the boss."
Asura Otsutsuki: "Don't worry."
Asura Otsutsuki: "I won't tell the boss."
Asura Otsutsuki: "You guys keep following."
Asura Otsutsuki: "I promise I won't reveal the secret."
The woods fell silent again.
Madara slowly turned his head and looked at Hashirama.
"Is this the source of your power?"
Hashirama was somewhat embarrassed.
" Asura just hasn't figured it out yet."
"This has nothing to do with me."
Madara sneered.
"You two even share the same brain."
"Ban, just tell him what you mean."
Why drag me into this?
"Because your performance wasn't much better either."
Hashirama immediately objected.
"At least I won't reveal my whereabouts in the group chat."
"Who thought the mahjong player was a person last time?"
Ban's face immediately darkened.
" Hashirama."
"You want to fight?"
"Come on, come on."
You think I'm afraid of you?
Tobirama stood between the two.
"Shut up, all of you."
"The boss is still up ahead."
"Are you planning to be discovered right now?"
The sound was simultaneously absorbed by the spot and the Hashirama.
Tobirama glanced at the chat group.
"Big brother."
Let's figure out a way to smooth things over first.
Hashirama immediately lowered his head and started typing.
Hashirama Senju: "Boss, don't misunderstand."
Hashirama Senju: "We weren't secretly following them."
Hashirama Senju: "We were just worried that you might encounter danger on your journey."
Hashirama Senju: "Therefore, I've decided to protect you from the shadows."
Ban saw the message and added a comment as well.
Madara Uchiha: "That's right."
Madara Uchiha: "We'll take care of protecting you."
Madara Uchiha: "It won't affect your search for people."
Tobirama remained silent for a moment.
He really didn't want to play along with such an obvious excuse.
But since the two people had already sent the message, he could only complete the statement.
Tobirama Senju: "I'll be in charge of supervising them."
Tobirama Senju: "To prevent my brother and Madara from causing trouble on the way."
After sending the message, the three of them looked ahead at the road.
Zhang Yu was hurrying along with a map in hand.
Messages kept popping up in the chat group, making it hard for him to ignore them.
After reading Asura and the Hashirama, Zhang Yu shook his head and smiled.
Bai walked beside him.
" Boss Zhang Yu."
"What happened?"
"Fine."
Zhang Yu closed the chat group.
"Three restless people followed behind."
Jiraiya immediately turned around.
There were only a few ordinary pedestrians on the road.
There was nothing unusual to be seen in the woods on either side.
"Are we being followed?"
"Didn't you notice?"
Jiraiya's expression was somewhat unnatural.
He was, after all, one of the Konoha Sannin.
He was followed the whole way without even noticing.
Who is it?
" Hashirama, Madara, and Tobirama."
Jiraiya immediately fell silent.
It's normal that he didn't notice the three people following behind him.
Don't talk about him.
Even the most perceptive ninja might not be able to locate all three of them simultaneously.
Zhang Yu reopened the chat group.
Zhang Yu: "The three of you can come along."
The Hashirama in the tree immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Hashirama Senju: "Don't worry, boss."
Hashirama Senju: "We absolutely will not interfere with you."
Madara Uchiha: "You can call me if you need anything."
Tobirama Senju: "Understood."
Zhang Yu posted another message.
Zhang Yu: "No one is allowed to show themselves without my order."
Zhang Yu: "And you're not allowed to interfere with our schedule."
Hashirama, Madara, and Tobirama agreed in turn.
Asura also appeared at this moment.
Asura Otsutsuki: "Boss, so you already knew."
Asura Otsutsuki: "Then it doesn't count as me leaking the secret."
Indra Otsutsuki: "Shut up."
Uchiha Izuna: " Asura, stop sending messages."
Tobirama Senju: "Agreed."
Madara Uchiha: "Agreed."
Hashirama Senju: "Agreed."
Asura looked at the row of replies and ultimately did not say anything more.
Zhang Yu closed the chat group.
Let's go.
"If they want to go, let them go."
Jiraiya glanced back again.
" The Lord First is also going to find Tsunade."
"Once we see Tsunade, it'll save us a lot of trouble."
Zhang Yu smiled.
That's not necessarily true.
" Hashirama opposes most right now is having Tsunade return to Konoha to become Hokage."
