Chapter 419 Jiraiya Disappears, Neji Gets Married, and the Underground River Enters

Chapter 419 Jiraiya disappears, Neji gets married, the entrance to the underground river

In an instant, in just a few minutes, the fat middle-aged man from the Fukama family felt the danger in people's hearts. The sun and the human heart cannot be looked at directly, and both the scroll king and the silver coin must die!

But he knew he couldn't say no, even if it was true. But when he came, the head of the family had already warned him not to make enemies, and not to mess things up no matter what happened.

"The gifts. The gifts are still on the way. There are too many, and they are stuck on the way." He was sent to represent the Fukama family. Apart from being a little stupid, he was not mediocre.

"Well, I understand." Naruto glanced at the three of them, "So, let's get down to business?"

"No, the Yuanhe family deserves their punishment for spying on the Intelligence Department and acting recklessly." The young man from the Jiangchuan family suggested, "It's already early, let's eat first, shall we?"

"How about chatting while we eat?"

"good."

"Did they really say that?" Kakashi looked like he had seen a ghost, stroking his chin and muttering to himself, "It's strange, what happened to these nobles?"

"I don't know. I didn't do anything. I just came back and sat there." Naruto looked lazy and nestled in the chair.

"Maybe it's because you're scared. After all, you eliminated a big noble. They want to share the food garden and home, so they must have gained a lot of benefits."

"The great nobles are really cheap, but they have a pretty good attitude." Naruto said.

"Then don't worry about it. Since they are the ones showing goodwill first, just take it all over." Kakashi said, "That's good, the Intelligence Department's project can also proceed smoothly."

"Huh? Kakashi-sensei, are you still paying attention to the Intelligence Department's projects?" he asked in surprise.

"What are you talking about? I am Hokage, how can I not pay attention to the major events of the Intelligence Department." Kakashi coughed, "It's just that you know, there are too many things going on in the past few months."

"So, Hokage is indeed a troublesome job." Naruto said.

"Well, there's one more thing." Kakashi said suddenly, and after that, he started rummaging for documents on the table, "Wait, it suddenly disappeared. It was obviously here just now."

Kakashi scratched his head, looking depressed.

"What's going on?" he asked.

"Nothing, just a small matter. The Daimyo Toki of the Bird Country recently visited." Kakashi was still looking down at the documents. "She asked you if you are an adult and seems to want to see you."

"Ibis?" Naruto searched his memory for a while and remembered a certain mission experience. At that time, he slapped her a few times. This person actually still missed him?

It's not just a twitch, it's too cute.

"Forget it, stop looking. I'm too lazy to see her." Naruto said, "This woman is trying to be courteous for nothing, so she's definitely up to no good. If she borrows a seed, she'll be in trouble."

"That's true. If that's the case, it's really troublesome." Kakashi muttered to himself, drooping one of his exposed dead fish eyes.

At this moment, there was a rapid knock on the door of the office.

"There's someone." Naruto said.

"Come in." Kakashi looked up at the door.

After getting permission, the door was hurriedly pushed open. Kamizuki Izumo pushed the door open and stepped aside to make way. Only then did the two of them see a slender dark orange toad following behind him.

When Naruto saw it, he immediately remembered that this was not a scroll toad.

"Lord Hokage, Scroll Toad has something important to tell you." After saying that, Shenyue Izumo suddenly disappeared.

After Tsunade left the village, the new Sixth Generation Hokage Kakashi faced the embarrassing situation of having no one available, so he simply inherited the team left by the Fifth Generation.

Among them are the ANBU captain Uzuki Yugao, and two secretaries who were promoted from gatekeepers to errand boys, Gang Zitie and Kamizuki Izumo.

"Gama Yin? Why did you come to Konoha? Is there any new news about the lustful immortal?" Naruto asked, looking lazy and with a smile on his face.

I haven't heard from Jiraiya for a long time, and I don't know where he drifted and lost contact. Nowadays, seeing Gao Yin is a bit friendly. Jiraiya often uses Gao Yin to convey messages.

"Kakashi, Naruto." The scroll toad jumped over and said seriously, "Something happened to Jiraiya. He disappeared underground during a mission and seems to be missing."

"Missing?" He looked at Gao Yin in astonishment. He sat up straight and asked seriously, "Is the news reliable?"

"Well, when I was summoned, Jiraiya seemed to be on the underground river, and the current was very fast. He was sucked into a whirlpool and sank, and his chakra disappeared instantly." Toma Yin said.

"Did the chakra disappear directly?" Kakashi noticed this, "Logically speaking, in just a moment, even if it is drawn into the whirlpool, it is impossible for the chakra to disappear together."

"Perhaps there is a different space underneath? Or there may be other mysteries. In short, we have to go there and have a look. After all, Lord Jiraiya summoned the scroll toad, maybe he wanted to convey some news to the outside world."

Hearing this, Naruto couldn't help but frown, but he wasn't too anxious. He knew that Jiraiya was very capable and had a lot of ways to save his life.

In addition to the scroll toad specifically used to deliver messages, Jiraiya can also summon a gourd toad and burrow into its body to maintain long-term survival underwater.

"Did Jiraiya say something when he summoned you?" he asked.

"No." Toad Yin shook his head, "It was a steep rock wall with very dark light. It seemed to be an underground river with a large height difference."

"When I appeared, Jiraiya only had one palm left above the water, and it was swallowed up in an instant."

"Is it an underground whirlpool?" Kakashi analyzed calmly as always, "Jiraiya-sama's psychic beast is the toad from Mt. Myouki. If it is just sucked underwater, it can always come out."

"Besides, with Jiraiya-sama's methods, it is absolutely no problem to save his life and find a chance to come out. Is there a possibility that Jiraiya-sama was just dragged into the underground river to a farther place."

"It's possible." Naruto nodded, but then said, "But under normal circumstances, Jiraiya wouldn't summon Toma Yin in a hurry. Maybe he is really in trouble."

"Toad, do you remember where Master Jiraiya disappeared?" Kakashi asked.

"I can only try reluctantly. I walked a long way before I found the exit. The location may be found. If we set out now, maybe we can." Toad Yin said.

Hearing this, Naruto looked at Kakashi.

"Don't go there alone. Neji, Tenten, and Xiao Li are still in the village. You should form a team and go together." Kakashi immediately gave the order decisively.

"Anyway, you have done missions together before, and you have a good understanding of each other."

"Okay." Naruto agreed.

About half an hour later, the third team, which received the Hokage's emergency summons order, gathered immediately. Among the twelve Xiaoqiang, only the third class is still doing tasks in the village.

There is only one Choji left in Class 10 who does not hold a position, but he cannot carry out the mission alone. After getting married, he has already begun to learn to deal with family affairs.

Most ninja families are involved with some nobles, and the interest exchanges are also complicated. It is not an easy task to handle it well. You can only calm down and study hard.

Class 7. All members of Class 7 are evil, and none of them can save fuel. Kakashi was even depressed, and none of his disciples were worried.

In Class 8, only Aburame Shino is still doing tasks, and Inuzuka Kiba has been busy helping with family affairs recently. As for Hinata, Hinata changed so much that she could only stay in the clan to help Neji.

Originally, Neji didn't have much time to take on the task, but more than a month later, the conflict between the Hyuga branch family and the main family had eased a lot.

Coupled with the guidance of Hinata and Hinata, and the help of Hinata and Hanabi, Neji quickly became familiar with the affairs of the clan and handled them in an orderly manner.

If it were just that, it wouldn't be enough for him to really have time to take on the mission. The most critical reason is that Neci took the initiative to resolve the conflict between the divided clans.

"Are you married?" Naruto was stunned and suddenly turned to look at Neji, "When?"

"Seven days ago." Ningci looked calm and nodded. "It's just a simple wedding. It's not official. It's just a rehearsal in advance."

"What?" Tiantian reacted even more and rushed in front of Neci, "Marriage? Neci, are you kidding me? We are in the village and you didn't notify me and Xiao Li at all!"

"It's just a rehearsal, it counts as an engagement." Neji said, "We will officially get married next month, and I will invite you to the wedding then."

"With whom?" Tiantian asked with a complicated expression.

"I knew a girl from the Zong family before, but I didn't expect to marry her." Hinata Neji's voice had no emotional ups and downs. It seemed that marriage was no different to him than eating and sleeping.

Although marriage also includes sleeping, he seems to think that marriage is just a very dull thing.

"Getting married so soon?" Xiao Li blinked and twitched his thick eyebrows, "Cool, Neji, I didn't expect you to be the first to get married among the four of us!"

Although Xiao Li sometimes speaks without thinking, there is also an advantage: he is sincere.

He subconsciously accepted Naruto as a member of the third team. Even though Naruto was just improvising during that time, Xiao Li always thought of his kindness.

"I thought Naruto would be the first to get married, but I didn't expect it." Xiao Li said with a smile.

Tiantian pursed his lips, not knowing what to say for a moment. I just felt a little disappointed in my heart, but I couldn't say it was uncomfortable. After all, I had been mentally prepared for it.

The Hyuga clan basically digests it internally and will basically not intermarry with outsiders. She knew this, she had known for a long time that Neji would eventually marry a Hyuuga girl.

"Is that so, is it to ease the conflict between the Zong family and the Suan family?" Naruto packed up his climbing equipment and said without raising his head.

"No wonder you have time to come out to do tasks. Have all the matters in the clan been resolved?"

"Well, it's almost done." Hinata Neji said, "Marriage has indeed eased the conflicts between the main family and the branch family, and things are developing in a good direction."

"Congratulations, Neji." Tiantian stepped forward and smiled, "I wish you a happy wedding."

"Thank you, Tenten." Neji nodded.

When the mission begins, the four of them start the speedy rush mode.

This time, although Naruto was impatient, he did not speed up, and Neji was still the leader. The third shift has equally rich experience in rescue and investigation missions.

Two days later.

Above a deep underground valley, several people found the entrance. Scroll Toad carefully explored the surroundings, pointed at the crack below and said.

"This is it."
