As more and more ninjas returned from the front lines, the people in Konoha Village felt more and more that the war was rapidly fading away.
Outside Konoha Village, a team of more than 20 ninjas arrived at the village gate.
"So you were withdrawn from the border of the Land of Earth. You should be the last batch."
Gang Zitie said as he looked at the document handed to him by the lead ninja.
More than half of the ninjas in this team are teenagers, and the war has filled their young and tender faces with fierceness.
In the team, a young man with a short sword on his back looked up at the gate of Konoha Village.
Konoha, I'm finally back.
I haven't seen Mr. Yuan for a long time. I wonder how he is doing now. His reputation as the fierce tiger on the border makes many rock ninjas afraid of him.
This young man was none other than Hatake Harusora.
Suddenly, Qi Mu Qingkong noticed several figures flashing and appearing on the city wall in front of the gate.
He is an Anbu ninja who wears a mask to hide his face.
Hey, is that Brother Kakashi?
Hatake Harusora's gaze fell on an Anbu ninja in the middle. Although his face was covered by a mask, his silver hair was revealed.
How come Brother Kakashi and the others suddenly appeared at the village gate? They shouldn't be here to greet us.
Looking at Kakashi, Hatake Harusora said secretly.
Then, just as their group walked into the village gate, a gust of wind suddenly blew up from the ground.
The next second, a group of figures appeared at the village gate.
It's the Uchiha Guard.
Hatake Harusora paused and looked back at the Uchiha people standing at the village gate.
No wonder Kakashi and the others showed up. It turns out that today is the day the Uchiha Guard returns to the village.
Faced with the Uchiha Guard, Gang Zitie and Shen Yue Chuyun did not dare to delay and hurried to meet them.
The leading Uchiha was a young man with long hair. He said to Gang Zitie and the others in a haughty manner, "We are the advance troops of the security team. The Uchiha Guard has already defeated Kirigakure and has been ordered to return to the village."
Uchiha clan territory, training ground.
"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding..."
Amidst the rapid sounds of metal clashing, three figures were engaged in a fierce battle, unable to separate.
Not far away, Uchiha Yuan and several Uchiha boys stood side by side and looked at the three people in the field.
Suddenly, there was a noise from a distance.
"Qi Ren, go see what's going on?"
"Yes."
Following Uchiha Yuan's order, a young man standing nearby immediately left the place using the instant body technique.
About a minute later, a figure flashed by Uchiha Yuan's side, and the young man who had left returned, saying with a happy expression: "Brother, the family's guard team has returned, and the clan members are cheering.
To celebrate the Guard's victory over Kirigakure, the elders decided to hold a celebration tonight."
Hearing this, the other young men standing beside Uchiha Yuan immediately showed joy.
Someone laughed out loud: "Haha, as expected, how could a mere Kirigakure possibly stop us Uchiha."
"We're going to party all night long."
Uchiha Yuan looked outside the training ground, listened to the cheers coming from all around the clan territory, and thought secretly: The retreat of the Kirigakure army and the return of the family guards mean that the war facing Konoha is over.
In the Land of Hot Springs, the Hidden Cloud Village and Konoha have been in a state of confrontation, with only small-scale conflicts and harassment.
These signs all indicate that the village will return to peace in the future without the special conditions of war. The position of Hokage, which has been vacant since the sacrifice of the Fourth Hokage, is the first problem to be solved.
After all, it is not legitimate for Sarutobi Hiruzen to act as the acting Hokage in the name of the Sandaime.
Everyone in the village is looking forward to the appearance of the fifth generation, but...
Thinking of this, Uchiha Yuan's eyes flashed slightly, Senior, I will persuade the clan leader to support you to become Hokage, but will you be willing to succeed the Fifth Hokage?
As for the next Hokage position, Uchiha Yuan already knew the outcome. On the one hand, Sarutobi Hiruzen and his men were unwilling to take the position of Orochimaru, which was difficult to control.
On the other hand, Uchiha Yuan knew Orochimaru. With his pride, he probably would not accept the position of the Fifth Hokage after the Fourth Hokage.
However, if Orochimaru became Hokage, with his magnanimity he should be able to tolerate the Uchiha clan, and the Uchiha clan would also be intimidated by his reputation.
More importantly, for Uchiha Yuan, it would be of the greatest benefit to him if Orochimaru became Hokage. With his cooperative relationship with Orochimaru, he might be able to directly enter the village's upper echelons and obtain a position in a powerful department.
Then, as his eyes flashed, a hint of determination quietly appeared on Uchiha Yuan's face.
Ding!
A violent sound of metal clashing interrupted Uchiha Yuan's thoughts. He turned his gaze to the training ground and saw that the three fighting people had separated.
The three are Senju Xuan, Uchiha Chuan and Uchiha Feng.
Qianshou Xuan looked at the many tears on his clothes and said helplessly, "Oh, this is terrible. I'm going to be scolded by my sister again when I go back."
Although his sister Senju Xue forbade him to continue contacting Uchiha Yuan, Senju Xuan did not listen and still frequently came to the Uchiha clan's territory.
Then he was asked by Uchiha Yuan to help him train Uchiha Kawa and others.
Uchiha Yuan smiled and said, "Before you leave, take two of the new desserts back. Miss Xue will probably forgive you."
Qianshou Xuan looked towards the noisy direction of the clan's territory and asked, "Yuan, what happened over there?"
"The security team is back. By the way, the family will be holding a celebration tonight. Do you want to attend?"
Senju Xuan's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Can I participate in the Uchiha celebration?"
"You are my good friend, of course you can participate."
Then Uchiha Yuan turned his gaze to Uchiha Kawa and the other man, and pointed out several flaws that the two had revealed during the competition.
As night fell, bright lights lit up throughout the Uchiha clan territory.
At the gate of the Uchiha clan's territory, two strings of large red lanterns were hung high, and several rows of family flags with round fan patterns were erected high, fluttering in the night wind.
However, compared to the noisy and bustling sounds coming from deep within the Uchiha clan's territory, the clan gate was deserted, and no other people from Konoha Village came to participate in the Uchiha clan's celebration.
At this time, a figure hesitated in front of the gate of the Uchiha clan, and in the hidden places around, many prying eyes were watching the movements of the Uchiha clan.
Suddenly, two brisk footsteps were heard, causing the hesitant figure in front of the Uchiha clan's gate to turn around and look.
"mysterious!"
"Clear sky!"
The figure hesitating in front of the Uchiha clan's territory was none other than Hatake Harusora. He looked at Senju Xuan who appeared before him with an expression of surprise.
"Qingkong, this is my sister Qianju Xue."
After giving Hatake Harusora a surprise hug, Senju Xuan introduced his sister to him.
Some people died, but not completely...
Chapter 140 Meeting Shisui Again
"Hello, nice to meet you. I'm Hatake Harusora."
Hatake Harusora saluted Senju Yukimi.
"Hello, I'm Xuan's sister, Qian Shou Xue."
Qian Shouxue smiled and glanced at Qian Shouxuan, saying calmly, "Xuan, compared to the other guy, your partner is very polite and humble."
Qianshou Xuan said helplessly: "Sister, since you don't like Yuan, why did you come here with me?"
Senju Xue snorted and said, "I'm worried about you coming to the Uchiha clan."
Qian Shouxuan said jokingly with a smile on his face: "It's obvious that you heard that the dessert shop has launched a few new products, so you insisted on following me."
Suddenly, Qianshou Xuan's smile froze and he turned to look at Qianshou Xue who was standing beside him.
Qianshou Xue smiled and said nothing, but secretly she stretched out two slender jade fingers and pinched the soft flesh on Qianshou Xuan's waist.
Feeling the pain in his waist, Qianshou Xuan couldn't help but grin and chuckle. He turned his gaze to Qi Mu Qingkong and asked, "Qingkong, are you here to look for Yuan? Why don't you go in?"
Hatake Harusora looked at the gate of the Uchiha clan and said, "Yes, but the Uchiha clan doesn't seem to welcome outsiders, so I hesitated whether to go in."
Qian Shou Xuan smiled and said, "Qingkong, don't worry, I often go in and out of this Uchiha clan territory.
The Uchiha clan will not stop you from visiting their clan territory. Other people in the village dare not come, probably because they are afraid of the Uchiha clan's fierce reputation.
Let's go in together. Yuan will definitely be happy to see you."
Then, the three of them walked into the gate of the Uchiha clan territory together.
In the Uchiha clan's territory, festive lanterns were hung on both sides of the road, and the bright lights illuminated smiling faces.
"Xuan, let's have a competition tomorrow."
Hatake Haruko said while looking at Senju Xuan with burning eyes.
He talked with Qianshou Xuan all the way and exchanged information about their respective situations in recent times.
When Hatake Harusora heard that Senju Xuan often came to the Uchiha clan's training ground to fight and train with others, he couldn't help but feel a strong desire to fight.
Senju Xuan and Hatake Qingkong exchanged glances, then he extended a hand and bumped fists with him, saying with a smile, "Okay, Qingkong, I'm really looking forward to you giving me a surprise."
Hatake Haruko showed a confident smile and said softly: "Xuan, don't worry, I won't let you down."
After a while, the three of them arrived at the commercial street of the Uchiha clan.
This is also the most lively place for the celebration. It is crowded with people and the air is filled with the aroma of various delicacies.
Hatake Haruko and Senju Gen stopped outside a barbecue shop. Senju Gen poked his head inside and said, "Daishi, give me ten skewers of honey-glazed barbecue."
"Okay, wait a moment."
After a while, Uchiha Daishi handed a handful of barbecue to Senju Xuan and said with a smile: "Thank you for your patronage. Today is our family celebration, so all the barbecue in the store is 50% off."
Qianju Xuan gave half of the barbecue skewer to Qi Mu Qing Kong. Qi Mu Qing Kong took a bite and couldn't help but show surprise on his face. He praised: "This barbecue is even better than the special barbecue of Qiu Dao family."
At this time, across the street, Qianshou Xue walked out of a dessert shop with two bags of desserts in her hands, looking very happy, and came to the two of them.
Qianshou Xuan took a big bite of the barbecue and said, "Qingkong, let me tell you something. In fact, this honey barbecue and the new dessert that my sister likes so much were all developed by Yuan."
Hearing this, Qi Mu Qing Kong was immediately surprised and said: "Xuan, you are not joking!"
It was hard for Hatake Harukasora to imagine that Uchiha Yuan would be associated with these foods.
"Of course it's true. This is what I heard from Uchiha Chuan and the others."
At the same time, Qianshou Xue, who also heard Qianshou Xuan's words, had a slightly changed expression. She lowered her eyes to look at the paper bag in her hand containing the new desserts, and thought to herself: I didn't expect that you actually have such a talent.
On the other side, two figures were walking along a road leading to the festival market.
Uchiha Yuan walked slowly with his hands in his pockets. Beside him, his sister Izumi was wearing a bright yukata with purple and red flowers. She walked with brisk steps, a happy smile on her face.
"I wonder if Itachi-kun is hurt?"
When he met a few security guards with bandages on their bodies on the road, Quan suddenly stopped and looked at their receding figures, with a trace of worry on his face.
Uchiha Yuan looked at Quan, rubbed her head with his hand and said: "Don't worry, Itachi's strength should be enough to protect himself, and he is the eldest son of the clan leader's family, so he must have guards around him."
Hearing this, the worry on Quan's face disappeared, and his eyebrows and eyes revealed a sweet smile like a crescent moon.
Seeing this, Uchiha Yuan smiled and said, "Izumi is very cute and beautiful today. If Xuan sees her later, he will definitely be fascinated by her."
"elder brother."
Quan pouted and rolled his eyes at Uchiha Yuan with helplessness and embarrassment.
A few minutes later, the brother and sister arrived at the entrance of the festival market.
Quan's attention was quickly drawn to a stall selling small accessories, and he walked over quickly.
Uchiha Yuan suddenly stopped and turned to look over.
Swish!
A figure flashed and appeared a few steps in front of him.
"Long time no see, Shisui."
