Chapter 73

"...Okay." Xia Yan pursed his lips, looking at Hiruzaru Sarutobi with a hint of doubt.

Why would you entrust him alone?
You know, since the Uchiha Clan meeting decided to train Xia Yan, Hiruzaru Sarutobi never invited him again, let alone being alone in a room like today.

"The specific task content, let Minato tell you."

Sighing slightly, Hiruzaru Sarutobi gave him a complicated look, and continued: "This time, besides the Minato squad, there are three foreign players including you."

"Huh?" Xia Yan frowned slightly.

"There are also Yuki Hinata and Asma Sarutobi." Hiruzaru Sarutobi exhaled smoke and fell into silence.

I used to be so optimistic about Xia Yan, but now I feel so complicated!

Thinking of negotiating with the old patriarch Uchiha yesterday, when he proposed to transfer Xia Yan to the Minato class, what he got was a rejection without hesitation.

What is Uchiha trying to do?
Even he, Hokage, can't be trusted. Do you want to set up a village within a village?
It turned out to be two acquaintances... Xia Yan was slightly startled, and replied: "Okay, Master Hokage. If there is no other order, I will leave first."

I was still very puzzled, how could Uchiha allow himself to come into contact with Minato?
Although Namikaze Minato has no record at this time, and is just an elite jonin in the village, the high-level officials of all ethnic groups know his importance.

A direct descendant of Hokage, a commoner genius, and the husband of Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

Based on these reasons alone, it can be deduced that Namikaze Minato must be Hokage after Sannin, but Uchiha is still confident and bold, and agrees to transfer Xia Yan away.

Are you not afraid that you will be poached by him?
Seeing Xia Yan leave the room, Hiruzaru Sarutobi called softly: "Come in, Danzo."

I saw Shimura Danzo with a mocking smile on his face, closed the door, coughed a few times, and sneered: "How is it? Uchiha is against you, Hokage."

"..." Hiruzaru Sarutobi opened his mouth.

Seeing this, Shimura Danzo became even more rampant, slammed the table down, and said in a deep voice, "You are too weak to them! Do you know, they have already contacted me!"

"What do you mean?" Hiruzaru Sarutobi's expression changed.

Shimura Danzo snorted coldly, and told the truth about Uchiha Cao's private contact with him, "So, have you given up now?"

Silent for a long time.

The room was gradually filled with smoke.

"...Let's take a look again." The bong in Sarutobi Hiruzen's hand had already been extinguished, but it was still held in his mouth.

----

back home.

Xia Yan went directly to his father and asked Uchiha why he agreed, but he didn't get any answer.

"Uchiha is a member of the village after all." Uchiha Genru replied.

Shaking his head, Xia Yan went upstairs and entered the room to prepare for tomorrow's departure, mainly to integrate his own strength.

What skills does he have now?
The newly developed "Chakra Mode", the sensing "magnetic field" with a radius of 20 meters, and the highly poisoned Immortal-Chopping Flying Knife... belong to the conventional strength.

But any one of these abilities can be called the foundation of Jonin.

However, for Xia Yan, the real trump cards are the other two: the kaleidoscope's pupil technique Candeyin, and Susanoo's coat.

When he put on Susan's coat, his defense, attack, and perception were all significantly improved, and the range of "magnetic field" perception was doubled, but the speed decreased a little.

But the latter two, especially Susano Yui, he was unwilling to use in front of others.

The night before departure, Xia Yan called Uchiha Nobu to the room, and reminded him to be careful of Orochimaru, and at the same time help himself to keep an eye on Uchiha's movements.

----

The next day.

At the gate of the village, except for bringing soil, the Shuimen team has assembled.

Next to him was Hinata Yuki, who was resting with his shoulders closed and his eyes closed. After the battle at the outpost, his strength had improved a bit.

Asma Sarutobi lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

While the few people were waiting quietly, a clear voice came from a distance, and one could tell from the voice that it was a handsome guy.

"Sure enough, I'm not the last."

Before the voice came, the figure was still far away, but when the voice died down, Xia Yan had already arrived in front of everyone.

The blond and warm-haired man Namikaze Minato smiled, and praised: "Going forward at this speed, there is still no panting, Xia Yan, have you left a lot of spare energy?"

"No, no." Xia Yan laughed.

Lin and others surrounded him and greeted him, including Hinata Yuki, they were all Xia Yan's acquaintances.

Kakashi glanced at Xia Yan, curled his lips, always feeling that this person was pretending to be invisible.

In the past few months, the two have often competed in the training ground of Hatake's family, but every time Xia Yan worked hard "untold hardships" to finally beat Kakashi with one move.

This made Kakashi very depressed.

If you are better than him, you are better than him, and you have to be evenly matched, every time it is a battle of water.

"Why hasn't that guy with soil come yet?" Kakashi asked.

Xia Yan shrugged and said helplessly: "There are a lot of old people shopping today. I guess he is promoting the virtues of Uchiha."

"..." Kakashi.

After a while, someone ran over, and it turned out to be Xi Hihong.

"I've already told you, you don't need to give it away." Xia Yan walked up to her, and pinned the broken hair that was blocking her forehead behind her ears.

Xi Hihong shook her head with a grin, and handed Xia Yan a small bag.

"Here are the Bingliang pills I made for you, and the shochu made by Dad, and..." She raised her head to look at Xia Yan, her eyes sparkling, and she said softly.

"..." Asma not far away.

"Also, when you come back, we will...well." Yuhi's red, white and tender face flushed.

Xia Yan quickly covered her mouth.

"I'll talk about everything when I come back, okay?" But he was complaining in his heart: Don't set up flags for me, okay?

Xi Hihong shook her head, breaking free from the shackles of the salty pig's hand.

Then she bit her lip in embarrassment, turned her head slightly, but quickly turned around, and said softly: "I will work hard to catch up with you!"

"..." You should have something to say to Sakura.

Xia Yan hummed, then sealed the packet in the scroll, and when he was about to speak to let little Lolita go back——

"Hey!"

Xi Hihong suddenly stood on tiptoe, pecked Xia Yan's face, leaving behind the smell of milk, turned and ran back to the village with a flushed face.

"Ha ha……"

Everyone around laughed in good faith and looked at Xia Yan with a playful face.

Only Asma smiled uglier than crying. Listening to their laughter, she felt that her heart was broken into eight petals.

Lovers get married.

The single dog witnessed it firsthand.

At this time, Obito finally came late, and after a few words with Kakashi, he joined the team.

"Okay, everyone is here, let's go!"

"Yes!"
