The next day.
The news of Silver Flash's return spread throughout Konoha.
The whole of Konoha was boiling, it was like a magnitude 10 earthquake, countless civilians and ninjas were shocked, and they couldn't help but cheer.
Silver Flash is Konoha's hero!
Although he disappeared for two years, Minato replaced Maples and became the new hero of Konoha, but the achievements of Maples won't disappear, they will be recorded in the history books!
As for Sarutobi, Danzo, and the others, after hearing the news, they were shocked, they were clearly aware of a fact.
Trouble is coming!
If Maples disappeared, the situation in Konoha will inevitably be stable, and under the leadership of Sarutobi, the position of the Fourth Hokage will be smoothly transferred to Minato.
But now it's different, Feng Ye may not be old enough to succeed the position of Fourth Hokage, but if he delays for a few more years, Feng Ye will also be qualified to compete for the position of Fourth Hokage, and if Orochimaru gets Feng Ye's support, he will be able to regain his position!
Immediately.
Sarutobi held an internal meeting, only a few elders, including Danzo, Utatane, and Homura, were present.
At the same time, Maples came to Orochimaru's base.
Orochimaru looked at Maples who appeared in front of him with a smile and said: "Sure enough, you won't leave this world so easily, Maples."
"I encountered a little accident."
Maples briefly explained, then took out a small bottle of blood and threw it to Orochimaru, and said with a smile: "This is a gift for you, Sensei, the blood of the Fourth Kazekage Rasa."
"Magnet Release Kekkei Genkai?"
Orochimaru's eyes lit up slightly, he caught the bottle and said: "It's a bit troublesome to get this … You didn't go to the Sunagakure, did you?"
Maples said casually: "I did go to the Sunagakure."
Although it seems like a casual sentence, Orochimaru clearly understood a fact from Maples, that is, the current Maples has the strength to truly surpass the Great Ninja Village, almost equivalent to the God of Shinobi, Hashirama!
Perhaps invading the Sunagakure, taking part of the Fourth Kazekage's blood, and then retreating, he could do it, but Maples's attitude was too relaxed.
It was as if it was something insignificant.
This attitude also corresponded to his strength, or Maples didn't hide it from him, he already has the strength to surpass the Great Ninja Village.
"On the way back, I met Tsunade sama, I heard from her, Sensei, you lost interest in the Hokage?"
Orochimaru was silent for a moment, and said with a slightly sarcastic tone, "Too many people don't want me to be the Hokage, so I have indeed lost interest. Compared to that, the purpose of a ninja's existence should be to pursue eternal life."
The atmosphere was silent for a moment.
Maples looked at Orochimaru and said softly: "I will respect Sensei's opinion, if Sensei wants to be the Hokage, I will still support it."
After leaving this sentence, Maples walked out of the base.
With his current strength, he doesn't fear anything in Konoha, so everything depends on Orochimaru's choice, no matter what choice he makes, he will respect and support it.
"Hokage …"
Orochimaru looked at Maples's back and murmured.
…
Maples didn't stay in Konoha for long.
He only stayed for a day, and after a simple greeting with Sarutobi, he left Konoha again and went to Konoha's front line camp in the East.
It's the front line camp to guard against the Mist, the purpose is to garrison some important areas and connect with each other. Kakashi was sent there a few days ago.
After half a day.
Maples arrived at the front line camp.
The ninjas in the front line camp haven't received any information from Konoha, and when they saw Maples, they couldn't believe it, but after a simple demonstration, they confirmed the identity of Maples. Then Maples got the latest information from the temporary leader of the camp.
"Two days ago, the team led by Kakashi was attacked by the Mist, one of the members of the team, Rin was taken away by the Mist, Kakashi is now leading a team to track and rescue …"
The temporary leader in charge of the camp, Aburame, reported to Maples.
Hearing the information, Maples's eyes flashed slightly, and he said: "What about the specific tracking route and the Mist's route?"
It seems that there should be enough time.
Interfering with the plot may lead to a direct conflict with Uchiha Macula, but he will never sit back and watch something happen to the people around him, especially when he has the ability to stop it!
"The specific route is here …"
Aburame immediately told Maples the specific route, and Maples didn't stay any longer, and directly left the front line camp and followed Kakashi's route.
…
At the same time.
Somewhere on the border of the Land of Fire, in the Mist camp, a huge amount of Chakra was gradually shrinking and gathering, and finally disappeared completely.
A large number of Mist Ninjas were holding hand seals around a girl in the center, and a huge seal was unfolding around the girl and gradually shrinking.
"Ah …"
The girl made a painful sound.
This pain came from the inside of her mind, or from the Sanbi that has been sealed in her body, and at this time, it was roaring angrily behind the seal.
"Biju … Sanbi …"
Rin, who realized what happened, clenched her teeth slightly, and a lot of thoughts flashed through her mind.
The Mist sealed the Sanbi in her body and made her the Sanbi's Jinchuriki!
What's the purpose?!
Using her as a vessel to seal the Three-Tailed Beast? But if that's the case, there's no need to use her, a Konoha Ninja, to seal the Sanbi in her body, and the risk of it going berserk would be much greater.
Rin couldn't think of a reason for the Mist to do this, but she guessed that it's not a good thing, and they must use her to do something extremely bad.
Rin clenched her teeth slightly.
When she knew that she was captured by the Mist, she understood that her hope of survival was not great, and the Mist obviously wanted to use her for something. Although she couldn't guess the specifics, she couldn't let the Mist succeed.
Maples's figure flashed in her mind, and some images of her actions with Minato, Kakashi, and Uchiha Zetsu, and her clenched teeth gradually loosened.
"Kakashi … You're the only one left …"
"Maples …"
"I should see you over there, right?"
She showed a smile, and then with a thought, she tried to make her Chakra explode from her heart and end her life.
However, this action was stopped the moment it appeared.
"Huh?!"
Rin was shocked, and then continued to try, but soon she found that she couldn't succeed at all. As long as this behavior appeared, it would be stopped by itself!
Was it a sealing technique to prevent suicide?
She couldn't even kill herself …
Rin clenched her teeth again, and at this time, she gradually realized what the Mist wanted to do. They wanted to use her as the Sanbi's Jinchuriki, send her to Konoha, and use the Sanbi's power to cause large-scale destruction to Konoha!
"No … I can't stop it … I can't kill myself …"
