Therefore, if the 3rd generation would investigate to the end, even if he told a good lie, it would be useless. On the contrary, if the 3rd generation would stand on his side, then he just needed to say a reason to give the 3rd generation a way out. In short, he had to think of a reason. However, the key to deciding this matter was not his excuse, but the attitude of the 3rd generation.
In Naruto III's office, Kakashi was on one knee as he reported the mission to Naruto III.
"Is that so?" After hearing that Nara Yu could kill a Jounin alone, the third generation Naruto took a deep puff of the cigarette in his hand and spoke.
"Yes, I am! Third generation lord! Moreover, Nara Yu seemed to have improved the secret arts of the Nara family. Moreover, Nara Yu seemed to be creating or perfecting a ninjutsu.”Kakashi wouldn't help Nara You hide her strength just because he had a good personal relationship with her. Kakashi had always kept his personal and private interests separate.
"Has it already reached this stage?" The third-generation successor spoke. After a moment of silence, he changed the topic and asked Kakashi,"Kakashi, what do you think of that little brat from the Moonless Water Clan?”It seemed that when Nara Yu had just returned to the village, the third generation had already investigated Bai, who had been brought back by Nara Yu.
"White?" Kakashi recalled everything about this child. He had a good impression of this child whom he had only met a few times. After a moment of silence, he said,"Third generation lord! This subordinate believes that this child should be fine.”Kakashi's words weren't simple words, but rather, they represented a responsibility. Kakashi's words meant that if Bai were to do anything detrimental to Mu Ye in the future, Kakashi would be the first to be implicated.
When the third-generation successor heard Kakashi's words, he looked at Kakashi in surprise and said,""Kakashi, it seems like you think highly of that child.”
When Kakashi heard Naruto III's words, he replied,""That child is indeed not cut out to be a ninja. He is too kind and benevolent.”Kakashi didn't answer Naruto III's question directly. Instead, he asked a question that wasn't related to his question.
The 3rd generation fell silent. In this world, one could have a kind heart, but one could never be merciful. If that child was really like what Kakashi said, he was indeed not suitable to be a ninja. After a moment of silence, the third-generation successor spoke again,""Does that little guy from the Nara family care about that child from the Moonless Water clan?”
"It seems that the child of Moonless Water's clan once saved Nara Yu's life, and that kid Nara Yu also cares about her.”Kakashi replied.
"Yuan Fei." Suddenly, an old voice interrupted.
"Tuan Zang, why are you here?" The third generation Naruto narrowed his eyes as he looked at the group that had suddenly barged in.
"Yuan Fei! You should know why I'm here this time!”An old man with one eye and one hand completely wrapped in bandages appeared in the office with a walking stick.
"It's for that child of Moonless Water's clan, right?”
"Yuan Fei, you should know what this only surviving member of the Moonless Water Clan means to us, right? Therefore, I suggest that Moonless Water's child be handed over to our roots to be nurtured.”Tuan Zang ignored the opinions of the third-generation successor and spoke in an arbitrary tone.
"Tuan Zang, I can't make the decision! The child of Moonless Water's clan seemed to be the child that Nara Shikamaru had given birth to outside back then! As for whether this child would stay or leave, it was probably up to Nara Shikamaru, the father, to decide.”The third-generation successor puffed out a smoke ring, making the lie that Nara Yu had made up sound as if it was true. As for saying that the third-generation couldn't make the decision, that was complete nonsense. If the third-generation asked Nara Shikamaru to hand over Bai, no one in the wooden leaf would dare to resist.
"Yuan Fei, you…" Tuan Zang did not expect that the usually weak third generation Naruto would actually oppose his words at this moment. However, Tuan Zang was not someone who would let things go so easily. He said to the third generation Naruto forcefully,"Yuan Fei, the Nara Clan must hand over that fellow from Shui Wuyue's clan. If they refuse, humph! Then I suspect that Moonless Water is a spy sent by Hidden Fog, and that the Nara Clan is related to them. I'll charge them with the crime of conspiring with the enemy!”
"Enough! Group storage!" The originally calm third generation Naruto suddenly slammed the table and spoke to Tanzo in a tone that the third generation hadn't shown for many years,""The Nara family is one of the Pig, Deer, and Butterfly groups. They have also made many outstanding contributions to Mu Ye during the Third War of the Ninja Realm. They will never betray Mu Ye!!”What a joke. The Pigdeer Butterfly had always been in Naruto's camp. If the third generation association went against the Nara family, it would undoubtedly be cutting off its own wings.
"Also, Tuan Zang, remember this. You're not allowed to touch the children of Moonless Water's clan!”The third-generation successor reprimanded Tuan Zang.
Tuan Zang, who had never been reprimanded like this before, clenched his hands tightly. Veins on his hands were throbbing nonstop. Ever since Yuan Fei became the Fire Shadow that represented light, and he became the Root that represented darkness, Tuan Zang's status in Mu Ye could be said to be below one person, but above ten thousand people. In addition to the fact that the three of them had grown up together as friends, and the fact that the three of them had always advocated peace over the years, Mu Ye's influence in the group had grown even larger. He had even planted spies in Naruto's direct team.
"Humph!" Tuan Zang snorted coldly and turned to leave.
"Ley, send someone to capture Moonless Water's people. Remember to send out death warriors and disguise yourself as ninjas from other villages.”After leaving Naruto's office, Tanzo said to the air.
As for the third-generation Naruto, he looked at his old friend's back as he left and sighed slightly. Was he too relaxed with this old friend of his? Following which, a complicated divine light shot out from the third-generation Naruto's eyes." Tuan Zang, I hope you won't go too far."
"Kakashi, I have a mission for you. I want to know in the whole of Kinoha tomorrow that Nara Shikamaru's illegitimate daughter was found by his son, Nara Yuu, and brought back to Kinoha Village.”the third-generation successor said to Kakashi, who had not moved at all.
When Kakashi heard about the third-generation successor's mission, he was delighted. Kakashi knew that the third-generation successor's mission meant that the third-generation successor had acknowledged Bai's position and identity in Muye.
