"Xingyan, you're finally back!"
Uzumaki Naruto was strolling on the streets of Konoha. When he saw Xingyan being held by Huanwu on the road, he rushed over.
They have all returned to the village for two days, and tomorrow is the day to go back to school. He had visited Aizen's house before.
The guard said that Xingyan had not come back yet and thought they could not go to school together tomorrow.
"I've been staying there for a few days, and I've seen a lot of excitement. I played a little too much, but I have classes tomorrow, so it won't be a problem."
Xingyan jumped down, waved to Huanwu, and then went to play with Naruto.
"Is there anything fun? Tell me about it. The wilderness survival we went on this time is not fun at all. Sasuke is so arrogant, you know, he..."
When Naruto heard Xingyan say it was very lively, his eyes lit up instantly.
However, he still talked about how unpleasant it was to survive in the wild these days.
Especially his resentment towards Sasuke, it was so strong that he almost said directly that Sasuke was targeting him.
...
...
"Sasuke is like that, if you don't like him, just beat him up."
Xingyan walked beside him, looking at Naruto, whose smile was so warm, and told him not to be polite to Sasuke.
But after he finished speaking, Naruto's originally sunny state was instantly covered by dark clouds and wilted.
"I can't beat..."
Naruto also wanted to beat up Sasuke for a while, but the problem was that no matter how much he secretly increased his practice, he still couldn't beat Sasuke.
I don't know how Sasuke trained, it feels like it's only been less than a year and he's already much stronger than before...
"That's a shame... Let's go, I'll treat you to ramen. I've been watching cats fighting these days and I'm craving for some ramen from Uncle Ichiraku's!"
Xingyan described all the excitement he had seen during the past few days as a cat-and-cat fight, and then before Naruto could ask any more, he dragged him towards Ichiraku Ramen.
When they arrived at Ichiraku Ramen, Naruto forgot to continue asking what was so fun about watching cats fighting.
After they had eaten the ramen and went home, Naruto suddenly thought of it again.
After thinking about it for a while, he finally understood.
Because Xingyan likes cats, watching cats fighting is also a very happy thing for Xingyan.
After returning home and having a good night's rest, Xingyan walked out the door early the next morning when Naruto called him.
Not surprisingly, just a few steps later, Sasuke appeared on his other side while running.
The three teenagers were walking on the way to school. Xing Yan in the middle was smiling as he watched the two people quarreling next to him.
At this time, Sasuke and Naruto had not noticed that Xingyan, who was almost as tall as them more than half a year ago, was now shorter than both of them.
They are all growing up little by little, except Xing Yan, who remains at the age of eight.
Because Xingyan returned to Konoha, Kakashi followed again to "protect" them. Looking at the backs of the three boys, his pupils suddenly trembled, and then he quickly regained his composure.
There was no change at all, even the length of his hair was exactly the same as when he first came to Konoha.
This sudden discovery made Kakashi feel extremely conflicted. He was not sure whether he should report the news.
If we talk about importance, this matter is absolutely important.
But if you say that it is necessary to report, it doesn’t seem to be necessary.
Because this discovery was not within the scope of his observation...
"It doesn't matter even if we report it. No one has noticed it yet, but in two years the difference will be obvious. We have no intention of hiding it."
Muramasa suddenly appeared next to Kakashi.
Looking at Kakashi's hesitant eyes, I told him that if he wanted to say it, he could say it. This was not a secret that could not be told.
Or rather, they never thought about hiding it.
Just from the fact that there was no change in Xingyan's hair, we can tell that he was not worried about what would happen if someone discovered that something was wrong.
"He...can I know why?"
Kakashi didn't ask whether he wanted to report it or not, but instead asked first if the reason for this could be explained.
"A seal, a sealing technique to keep him alive."
Muramasa's eyes showed deep sadness.
"I see. I will report this matter. Thank you, Mr. Muramasa."
Kakashi nodded to Muramasa, then instantly disappeared in the direction of the Hokage Building.
For such an important matter, reporting it early can also avoid unnecessary trouble.
After listening to Kakashi's report and the information Kakashi got from Muramasa, Sarutobi Hiruzen asked everyone else to leave and then calmed down alone in the Hokage's office for a long time.
The sealing technique was used to keep the young master alive. This news is not bad news for Konoha.
Before, he was still wondering, since Aizen already knew their purpose and secretly sent people to warn them, why would he let the child stay in Konoha.
Now he knew why.
There are only two possible reasons for using sealing techniques to prevent a child from growing up: bloodline limit, or some kind of curse.
Whatever it was, there was no way the kid could stay alive in this size for long.
The purpose of their coming to Konoha, in addition to detoxifying and curing Gin Ichimaru's illness, was to find a way to treat this young master.
Tsunade, we really have to find a way to get Tsunade back.
Even if they can't cure him, as long as they can extend the child's life, they can use this as a condition to negotiate with Aizen...
Judging from Aizen’s previous performance, that family’s military strength is very strong, but what Aizen’s family needs most now is to save the child’s life.
Thinking of the information I got before, Mr. Aizen took this child to travel all over the five major countries. At that time, it should have been just to seek medical treatment. Doing business may be a side job for their family...
Now that Konoha has discovered this, this is the evidence in their hands!
It’s a pity that Orochimaru has been expelled, otherwise, there would be more options.
However, Orochimaru is too dangerous and staying in the village is a threat to everyone...
"Yamato, you also go follow that child. If he has any abnormal reaction, such as coughing or fever, or becomes weak or sleepy, report it immediately!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen called Yamato and asked him, who had just changed jobs a few days ago, to accompany Kakashi again.
Although it is not a healing skill, Wood Release is always a little special. If anything happens to the child, he and Kakashi can cooperate to protect him.
"yes!"
Yamato agreed and left quickly, going to the roof of the school to find Kakashi.
When Kakashi saw Yamato coming again, he sighed and waved to the guy to come over and wait together.
That young master is really a cause for concern.
Iruka had just returned to Konoha, and on the first day of class, he was already mad enough to lose his temper again.
Fortunately, I am not the teacher. Otherwise, if I had met such a student, I would have been so angry that my life would have shortened by at least ten years...
