Encountering Uzumaki Naruto on the street, Kuroto suddenly realized that the protagonists of the story have gradually grown up one after another and it wouldnt be too long before they strike their presence in the Shinobi world.

With his hands in the pocket of his Kimono, Kuroto walked past the Ichiraku ramen shop, as usual, he wasnt in a hurry to make a contact with Uzumaki Naruto, Child of the Prophecy, as of yet!

As for the reason, because its not the right time yet

Not long after, Kuroto reached his home empty-handed.

Originally, he planned to buy Dango on his way back, but Kuroto obviously underestimated the villagers enthusiasm towards Dango, by the time he reached the Dango Shop, the shop already hung the Sold Out sign.

Disappointed Kuroto had to return home empty-handed.

When he reached home, Yui greeted him, Welcome home, Kuroto-Kun!

While he was changing his Shinobi sandals to Uwabaki (Home Slippers), Kuroto sniffed the peasant scent and asked curiously, It smells good, did you prepare barbecue Yui?

Yui nodded with a smile and then dragged Kuroto into the dining area while pulling his arm.

Being dragged into the dining area, Kuroto could only helplessly follow, and as soon as he entered, he saw the large table filled with all sorts of dishes and asked in surprise, Oh, whats so special today? Looking at the table, you seem to have prepared a feast!

While taking her seat next to Kuroto, Yui spoke with a long sigh of relief, The war is finally over, so of course, we must celebrate! You dont know Kuroto-Kun, every time you go to the battlefield, I am always afraid, afraid that No, I shouldnt cry now, it will ruin all the mood come on Kuroto-Kun lets celebrate!

Kuroto smiled slightly and rubbed Yuis head lovingly.

He was happy with this peaceful atmosphere, but Kuroto knew this better than anyone, the clouds of war havent disappeared, no, to be exact, the real troubles that Konoha would be facing in the future havent even begun yet!

But be that as it may, Kuroto felt that as long as there are people around him for whom he cares and who cares about him, Kuroto is sure to work his way towards a better future.

A few days later, Anbu Team-11 was responsible for protecting the Kumo envoys during their stay in Konoha.

Kuroto was satisfied by the mission arranged by Sandaime-Sama, now he could openly monitor Kumo envoys.

But there was one thing that surprised many, contrary to what most expected, Kumo envoys didnt immediately leave Konohagakure to return to Kumogakure after the signing of the peace treaty, instead, they chose to temporarily stay in Konoha.

During this period, the head ninja of Kumo was like an active tourist, traveling and sightseeing the streets of Konoha, it can be said that he traveled throughout the village except for the restricted areas.

And unfortunately, enough, since he is the head of the Kumo envoys, Konoha cant actively stop or restrict his movements as that would leave a bad impression, so Team-11 could only follow him all around to make sure that he doesnt cause any trouble.

Although most are doubtful about his activism, Kuroto is certain that this guy is not just sightseeing, but probably mapping out the village, it is now confirmed that he must be planning something, however, whether it is the same as in the original series or not is unclear, after all, too many changes have occurred in the story so Kuroto cant be sure what sort of effect will it have here.

At the same time, Kuroto is also not sure of the identity of the Kumo spy hidden in Konoha, so Kuroto cant rule out the possibility that this head ninja is moving around the village, probably to make contact with that spy.

This routine continued for a few days, but then one day, the head ninja didnt run around the village and choose to quietly stay in the assigned mansion.

As the sun was setting, the night was getting darker.

Outside the assigned mansion, Eagle and Cat sat on a tree chatting about the movements of Kumo envoys for the past few days.

When suddenly, Cats expression changed and pointed towards the mansion where the Kumo envoys were staying, Eagle-San, look at that!

Eagle nodded, Yeah, I see it!

At this moment, wearing dark gear, a figure sneaked out from the mansion.

Byakugan

Immediately activating Byakugan, Eagle recognized that it wasnt someone else but the head ninja of Kumo, who was in charge of the signing of the peace treaty.

Realizing the identity of the person, Eagle informed Cat, Its Kumos head ninja!

Listening to Eagles information, Cat wasnt too surprised and spoke with a knowing expression, I knew this guy was wrong!

However, Eagle continued observing the figure and finally spoke with a frown, His chakra is a bit strange; it looks like its a Shadow Clone!

After understanding this, Eagle turned to look towards the mansion and only noticed eleven presence there, seeing this, Eagle was a bit confused, Is it not the Shadow Clone!?

After thinking a little, Cat spoke, Eagle-San, Ill follow him and see what does he intend to do!

However, Eagle shook his head and spoke, No, lets just stop him here, theres no need to take unnecessary risks!

No matter what the other party intends to do, Eagle was not interested in finding out, the only thing he now cares about is to send the Kumo envoys out of Konoha as soon as possible to avoid any trouble!

Whoosh Whoosh

With that decision, both Eagle and Cat used the body flicker technique to appear in the front and back of the head ninja and blocked his way from both the front and back.

Appearing in front of Kumos head ninja, Eagle spoke with a clod and indifferent tone, Where are you going at this hour?

The Kumo head ninja who was forced to stop in his tracks smiled and tore off his mask as he spoke, Ah, stopped me so quickly, really deserved to be the members of the most elite Anbu Team of Konohagakure!

Cat said solemnly, You do realize that your actions are going to destroy the hard-won peace between the two nations!

The Kumo had ninja smiled and was going to speak something, but before he could continue, Eagle narrowed his eyes and punched the head ninja through the heart!

Cat was shocked that Eagle-San made such a rash move and spoke, Eagle-San you?wait WHAT?!

Poof

But before he could complete his sentence, Cat was shocked to find that the figure of the head ninja whose chest was pierced by Eagle-Sans hand exploded into white smoke.

Noticing this, Cats expression changed, A Shadow Clone!?

Eagles face also changed and he spoke, Who was responsible for monitoring them during the day? Team-11 cant monitor them for twenty-four hours a day, so the mission was assigned to many teams combined and they take their turns in multiple shifts.

Therefore, the head ninja probably used this loophole and used the Shadow Clone Technique.

Cat recalled a little and answered, It seems to be Team-5!

Eagle knew that it wasnt time to blame others and said, Follow me! after that, his figure flashed and hurried towards the territory of the Hyuga Clan.

Cat also understood the seriousness of the matter and followed quickly.

Both Eagle and Cat are excellent in terms of physical skills and their speed is also extremely fast, so it didnt take very long and they arrived at the territory Grounds of the Hyuga Clan.

Arriving at the Hyuga Clan territory, Eagle immediately approached the patrolling Hyuga ninja and said, I am Eagle, of the Team-11 of the Anbu Black Ops under Hokage-Sama, it is very important and concerns the safety of Village, did you notice any suspicious person in the Hyuga Clan grounds?

The patrolling Hyuga ninja observed the two Anbu ninja and then replied without any hesitation, No, what happened, there was nothing unusual and no suspicious person appeared here!

Sighing in relief that it didnt happen yet, Eagle spoke, Take me to the Hyuga Patriarch!

The patrolling Hyuga nodded and led Eagle and Cat to the ancestral house, the residence mansion of the Hyuga patriarch.

As soon as they arrived at the entrance on the Hyuga Patriarchs mansion, Eagle who has his Byakugan activated noticed that the Kumo Head ninja who was dressed in the same night gear was coming outside of the house with unconscious Hyuga Hinata in his hand, and not far away, the patriarch Hyuga Hiashi who had a murderous look had already caught up!

At such a critical moment, Eagle didnt hesitate any longer and directly rushed into the mansion to prevent the Head ninjas death
