Chapter 90 Departure, Dawn's First Light

  On top of a building in Konohagakure...

  "Ah, ah, ah, ah, it's here, it's here. Konohagakure is indeed not bad at all. Hehehehe, the average score is very high." At this time, Jiraiya was sneaking a peek with a lewd expression on his face.

  "You're at it again with this boring stuff." Mizukage Enra and Tsunade-sama arrived simultaneously behind Jiraiya, with Mizukage Enra saying in a tone of disappointment.

  "This is a material. Aren't you Uncle Yan and Teacher Xiaochun? What do the two consultants want from me?" He turned his head to look at the two people who came to find him, and asked lazily.

  "You're asking me what's going on? You should already know without me saying it." said Mito Koumon with a stern expression.

  "Don't look so scary, didn't the negotiations with Suna end peacefully?" Shikamaru said lazily.

  "Shinobi of the Sand publicly claimed that everything was caused by Orochimaru alone and declared a complete surrender to Konohagakure, but that's not important." Mizukage Mei continued.

  "We in Konoha Village also had no choice but to accept defeat in order to restore our national power." Tsunade said.

  "But now the power of Konohagakure has weakened greatly. In this situation, the top priority is to prepare for an even greater crisis that may arise." Isobu said, speaking of the current state of affairs.

  "We don't know when the neighboring country will make a reckless move, so we decided to gather the leaders of each team and form an emergency executive committee to deal with that situation before restoring power in the village. But before that... a strong leader who can be trusted is needed. Now there are reasons for discord everywhere, not just the Great Snake Maru." said Shūsui Kōshun.

  "There's no need to report such things to me. I'll just continue gathering materials then." Zilai also caught the drift of the two elders' words and immediately retreated.

  "Mizukage Enmu said, 'Let me tell you a basic policy. We now need someone to become the Fifth Hokage immediately.'"

  "From what we discussed in the emergency meeting with the Daimyo of the Fire Nation yesterday, we think you're the right person for this." Zoro finally spoke up about the purpose of their visit.

  "Sorry, I'm afraid I won't be able to play this role." said Yagura in a calm tone.

  "This is the decision, if you, one of the 'Three Bears', cannot handle it, then who can?" asked Mizukage Enmu.

  "'Three Shinobi' you say? Isn't there another one, that guy with the surname Hyuga, and I've also found a great candidate here." said Jiraiya.

  "It's true, maybe that kid from the Hyuga clan is more suitable, but no one knows where she is. As for the person you mentioned, if I'm not mistaken, it should be that little girl from Team Kakaashi, but her age is still too young, only just fifteen years old, and even if we were to say something, it wouldn't convince anyone. Moreover, she's not a native of Konohagakure either, so we can't trust her too much." Mizukage En said.

  "If that's the case, I'll go get Nagato back, and that should solve everything." said Jiraiya.

  "But..."

  "Compared to me who is carelessly holding this position, isn't the clever Neji more suitable for Hokage...... how about it?" Shikamaru asked temptingly.

  The two elders exchanged a glance, and finally Mizukage agreed to Jiraiya's proposal: "I understand, we will consider your opinion as soon as possible. But I want to send three Anbu with you to find Tsunade."

  "Don't worry, I won't run away, it's unnecessary to send someone to keep an eye on me. However...I'd like to bring two people with me. I've found an interesting seed, and...heh heh." By the time he said the last sentence, Zilong had already started smiling slyly.

  ----------------I am a magnificent dividing line----------------

  In the afternoon, at the gate of Konoha Village...

  "Let's go." At this time, Naruto was carrying a 'huge' package and shouting.

  "You're really too enthusiastic, this isn't some kind of secluded mountain training." The self-cultivator beside him said helplessly.

  "By the way, why did you call me this time too?" On the other hand, Meng Ling was holding his head and asked with great impatience. Although he said so, Meng Ling still knew that this trip would not be simple at all. "I wonder if we'll really meet those two people." Meng Ling thought excitedly in his heart.

  Three people walked for a while before arriving at an intersection, where Naruto was being his usual self, making one blunder after another, and Hinata and Shikamaru simply ignored him.

  At this time, on a hill not far away, two people wearing red cloud black clothes were watching the three people rushing. It was the strange person of the Fog Hidden Village, one of the 'Seven Swordsmen of the Mist', Kisame Hoshigaki, and Uchiha Sasuke, who became the captain of the Wood Leaf Village's Anbu at the age of 13 and later annihilated his entire clan as a renegade ninja.

  "Although you can handle him, I may not be able to. The difference in strength is too great." Said the dried fish ghost shark with 'Samehada' on his back to Uchiha Sasuke.

  "Ah, that's right. If we were to fight him, both of us would likely end up dead. Even if we're lucky, it'll be a two-way defeat. And even if we gather more people to help, the outcome won't change much." Uchiha Sasuke said with a serious expression.

  "I never thought that the one responsible for protecting him would be the 'Legendary Sannin' and if he were to clash with them, the names of the 'Uchiha Clan of Konohagakure' or the 'Seven Swordsmen of the Mist' wouldn't amount to anything." Kishimoto continued.

  "Ah, but no matter how strong a person is, they must have weaknesses. But who exactly is that little girl? I somehow sensed a hint of danger from her." As soon as he said this, the weasel immediately stood up and fixed his gaze on Meng Ling, one of the three figures walking away.

  "I don't know, but someone who can be sent to protect the Human Pillar is not to be underestimated," said Gan Shibei.

  "Ah, that's it, just be careful. Let's go, Guixian." After saying this, You directly left the original place with Guixian.

  ————I am that gorgeous dividing line————

  At this time, Meng Ling and Zi Lai Ye along with Ming Ren had already arrived at an inn in a town.

  "Ah, ah, it's indeed much livelier here than in Konohagakure." Meng Ling said with her hands clasped behind her head.

  "Take this, Naruto. Go to your room and create some chakra first, then train a bit before going to sleep." Kakashi's excited voice came over.

  "Your meaning is that we're going to enter the adult world next, right? Too cunning, you lecherous immortal." Naruho said and returned to his room with a huff, but in Meng Leng's heart, he was overjoyed.

  "Has he arrived?" Dreaming Ling's divine sense immediately spread out and returned to her own room, constantly gazing at Naruto's every move.

  "Hmm? Has Sasuke already arrived in this town? It seems Kakashi has been defeated by the raccoon dog." Mei Ling said lightly, and had already left her room. At this time, two people wearing red cloud black clothes were knocking on the door in front of Naruto's room.

  "Who are you with eyes like Shisui?" Naruto also came out of his own room.

  "Let's go together, Naruto." said the raccoon dog coldly.

  "It would be troublesome if Tanuki were to run around wildly. It's better to cut off one of his legs." said Oni same calmly.

  "They're here, the two from Akatsuki." Just as Kisame was about to attack Naruto, Mei suddenly appeared in front of the two Akatsuki members and said calmly.

  "Who are you? How did you know about our affairs?" The weasel asked in surprise, but a strange light flashed across his eyes.

  "Don't use illusions on me unless it's the 'Moon Read' of the Uchiha clan's Mangekyo Sharingan, otherwise it's useless against me." Meng Ling said with a hint of impatience, her arms crossed over her chest.

  "Huh? You can actually sense that I'm using an illusion and even know about the Uchiha clan's Mangekyo Sharingan... who are you?" Upon hearing Meng Ling's words, Xiao Yao was even more shocked.

  "It doesn't matter who I am, all you need to know is that you either leave now or die here. You only have two options." As Meng Ling finished speaking, his right hand gradually revealed the appearance of his grass mud sword, which then pointed towards the two people in front of him.

  "Hmm, you have some strength, but your tone is quite arrogant." The shark said as it finished speaking, the shark muscle on its back directly swung towards Meng Ling.

  Bang...

  "What?" The ghost shark looked at the scene in front of it in surprise, only to see that Meng Ling did not use the grassy sword to resist the shark's attack, but instead used his left wrist to block the ghost shark's attack.

  "Uzumaki, go back to your room first. And Sasuke, since you're already here, come out and talk." Mei Ling said, looking at her own back.

  "Uchiha... Shiba." Sasuke had just appeared, and his eyes were already filled with murderous intent as he looked at Shiba.

  "It's been a long time, Sasuke." The raccoon dog replied with one sentence.

  "Sasuke, you'd better come in too if you don't want to die," Meng Ling said calmly.

  "What did you say?" Sasuke asked angrily after hearing Meng's words.

  "If you kill your brother now, you will regret it later. Moreover, you are not his opponent yet."

  "Stop joking around, I've been living for this day, just for this day." Sasuke had gone mad, and a sparkling ball of lightning appeared in his right hand.

  "I've told you to get in for me. If you don't want to go in, then just leave." Before Sasuke could even react, Meng Ling flew out with one foot and directly kicked Sasuke flying out from the wall.

  "Now that everyone else has left, shouldn't you also come out, Senior Zi Lai? This isn't the time to watch a play, is it?" Meng Ling said lightly.

  "Hmm, it seems that this little girl's strength is truly terrifying. No wonder the Great Snake Pill was defeated by your hands." Kakashi also emerged from the shadows, carrying the woman who had been affected by the illusion technique.

  "Old colour ghost, now you know it's out, but it's also not too late." Meng Ling said with a smile.

  "Now, then, Ninpou - Gama Kuchibuse no Jutsu." Jiraiya put down the woman who had been affected by the illusion and directly used his ultimate technique. Instantly, the entire corridor turned into a gut-like appearance...
