Hinata was still looking at herself in the mirror. She could even clearly see the white-eyed girl in the mirror. The skin bulges and changes in her eyes were like this. The iconic white-eyed bloodline was revealed in this way.

"...She's got things done, you know who she is."

The person standing outside the door was Uchiha Izumi, and it was not difficult to hear from her tone that she was angry and dissatisfied with the deal between Hinata and Mercury Lamp, but she still came back.

"Very well, now, congratulations, you are one step closer to the truth and power. Orochimaru is a good teacher, and I believe you will learn a lot from him."

Hinata nodded slightly, while Uchiha Izumi outside the door snorted coldly. Her shadow reflected on the sliding door flickered due to the beating of the candlelight, and it looked like it was hidden in her body. Emotions are surging.

Xiang Ling, who was standing aside, adjusted her glasses slightly. She could feel that the mind of the hostess in front of her was changing rapidly, which was an undercurrent that could change the world.

"Very well, Quan... Now, I want you to do one more thing for me..."

Cautiously closing the gold pen on the table, Hinata's tone was extremely calm. Only the unquestionable tone contained in it showed that she had been thinking about this task for a long time.

"I want you to help me kill someone."

Tsunade looked at the white-haired classmate in front of her suspiciously. She was not sure about her mood at the moment.

This was in a slightly old street tavern. The owner was obviously very happy about the Godaime's sightseeing, so he served a few extra dishes of side dishes to go with the wine. All this only made Tsunade feel a little indescribable panic.

In order to cover up this panic, she turned her eyes away, and then said in a casual tone: "You said, you want to leave Konoha Village?"

"Ah, I have to travel around the world to continue collecting materials~ After all, I haven't forgotten my mission. Anyway, now, the wise Fifth Hokage won't let it go, right?"

Jiraiya, who was sitting opposite Tsunade, said this with a playful smile, but he obviously underestimated Tsunade's ability to detect words and emotions. Although the other person's tone sounded quite natural now, it actually contained a kind of solemnity that could not be resolved.

Jiraiya wanted to leave Konoha. It was obvious that the other party did not do it temporarily, but had no intention of staying in Konoha from the beginning. Tsunade knew the reason for staying till now.

"It sounds like I rely on you to secure my position as Hokage. Tsk~ I might have to consider what others say. As for you, if you leave a day earlier, I will stop listening to complaints and complaints from the women's bathhouse."

Taking a deep sip of wine, Tsunade found herself a little upset. Even if she denied it, the familiarity over the years made her very clear that what she was denying was the truth.

"Well, it's a pity, but...that Naruto guy, I'm afraid I won't be able to take him with me this time."

Looking at Tsunade, Jiraiya's tone became serious after all: "Now there are special wood escape ninjas in the village who can restrain the Kyuubi, but that is Danzo's daughter after all. You must be careful."

"I know this... You know, the production of the divine water now depends on the chakra of the Nine-Tails..."

Subconsciously placing the wine glass in her hand on the table, Tsunade took a deep breath, and then said calmly: "But, I need a reason, and you must tell me. Why do you have to leave Konoha? Don't use that ridiculous thing. The novel material is here to prevaricate me. If you refuse to answer, it will not be that easy. After all, it is enough for Konoha to produce an Orochimaru."

Jiraiya fell silent, seeming to be choosing his words, and the surrounding air also became silent, leaving only the steam on the cooking pot next to him filled with a gurgling sound, like... It was the same scene when they were both children, when they went out to eat oden with the Sandaime.

"I have tracked down a very dangerous rebel ninja organization. Their name is Akatsuki. Itachi and Kisame who have appeared in Konoha Village before are one of them. Although I am not sure about their purpose yet, they seem to be related to It’s related to tailed beasts..."

After a long time, Jiraiya spoke softly, and the Sannin's eyes flashed with an unquestionable sense of determination: "So, I must find out all this."

"...Yeah..."

Tsunade, who was also silent for a few seconds and felt that she didn't know how to answer at all, still managed to hold back such an answer that was not an answer. She had no reason to stop the other party from leaving.

"Don't worry~ I will come back safely~!"

With the corners of his mouth raised, Jiraiya's tone returned to that cynical attitude: "At that time, let's drink together again."

"Hmph... Baga, who would sit and drink with an old man in his fifties..."

"Well, an old woman in her fifties?"

"Jiraiya, do you want to die?"

"Don't say that~ I'm not someone who dies easily~!"

————————

"I want you to help me kill someone."

Mercury Lamp was sitting leisurely on a comfortable armchair. Surrounding the chair was a small but very cozy house. The wallpaper in the room was covered with strawberry patterns.

Lin stood expressionless at the door, her shoes not yet had time to change.

This is Lin's house. To be precise, it is the house where Nohara Lin once lived a long time ago. Lin just bought it again through a series of operations a few days ago.

But now, she, the shaved ice sister who came and went without a trace, was sitting on the chair in her room like a ghost. The information contained in this was that her every move was not out of the other party's grasp.

"...You didn't change your shoes."

After a few seconds of silence, Lin finally closed the door behind her, then took off her high boots and slowly walked into the room.

It's not that she doesn't want to fight the mercury lamp, but because she is keenly aware that the strength of the shaved ice sister in front of her has improved a lot again. The concentration of chakra that permeates the other person's body is higher than the last time they left. Enhanced by at least 30%.

"Don't mind, I always use flying shoes, so the soles of my shoes are not dirty."

Fluttering the ice wings on his back as if to show off, Mercury Lamp was not discouraged, but repeated his words again: "I want you to help me kill someone, Sister Strawberry."

"...can...benefit."

Walking to the old wooden table, Lin picked up the water bottle and glass on the side and poured herself a glass of warm water. Her tone did not change at all, which made the mercury lamp sitting on the chair blink and seemed to be groping for a while. After seeing what the other party meant, she continued to ask: "What benefits do you want?"

"I don't know, but I think you know what to give."

Lin's answer felt very unreasonable, but it also clearly showed her wariness and temptation towards her sister. Since the other party would go to such trouble to present herself as her sister, then there must be more than just one mission invitation like this.

It can be seen from the capture of the tail beast that the mercury lamp will never give up easily on Lin's power. Therefore, she will definitely not do anything to antagonize Lin. Instead, she will try her best to win over the sisterhood between the two parties. ’, which determined that she would never use some rags to deal with Lin.

Then, based on what the other party can produce, Lin will naturally be able to know what the other party has, and thus determine the other party's true identity and strength.

However, even if Lin tried her best, the gap between her and the mercury lamp could not be easily bridged. The white-haired ice girl sitting there looked at her 'sister' and suddenly smiled lightly: "Sure enough, You are indeed much smarter than your second sister, great, deal."

Lin, who had her back turned to the mercury lamp, trembled violently. Although she had considered the possibility of losing control of her expression and chose to turn her back to him, the crisp sound of the glass in her hand being crushed directly betrayed her mood swings. .

"Well, get your tools ready and we'll head out tomorrow morning."

The sound of the mercury lamp slowly faded away. After Lin turned around, she was the only one left in the room. After looking around, Lin also murmured.

"...uneducated sister...remember to change your shoes next time..."
