Root Building.
"So, you've found traces of a battle, but they've already left?" Aoyama sat on the chair with his fingers crossed and his brows slightly furrowed.
"Yes, Chief. Although we tried to track them down, they're very experienced. They didn't leave any clues behind. We've searched around the village. Other than the traces of a battle on the riverbank, their power even changed the terrain." A pale-skinned young man stood in front of the table and answered quickly with a feminine smile.
"Itachi, that bastard … What the hell is he planning? Is he going to break off his relationship with Dai … Fei? " Aoyama had a headache. He couldn't understand Itachi's intentions. After confirming that it was Itachi who attacked Naruto, he sent a large number of people to track him down.
However, the result was obvious. They failed. Itachi and Kisame, who were both from the Dark Group, only found an abandoned village that was used as a temporary base.
"You can leave now, Sasai. This matter will end here for the time being." Aoyama noticed the young man standing in front of the table and waved his hand.
The young man named Sasai, who had snow-white skin, a black combat suit, and a short sword on his back, bowed slightly. The smile on his face was so beautiful and fake, and he walked out with light steps.
Sasai was one of the best fighters in Root. He was also one of the subordinates that Danzō had carefully trained. He was one level higher than Zi, but because of that, he only obeyed Danzō's orders. When Danzō was alive, he didn't become active.
When Danzō died, the small group of elites that Danzō had kept in Root lost their leader. However, since they were the subordinates that Danzō had carefully trained, they didn't fall into chaos. Instead, they immediately unified their opinions and joined Root, becoming members of Root.
Sasai was like an awl in a bag. Within a short two to three days, he stood out from the crowd and gained the attention of Zi and Aoyama.
Regarding Itachi's matter, he had a sudden inspiration. He thought of Sasai, a guy with aerial combat ability, and delegated the mission to him. Now it seemed that Sasai had done a good job. After all, he was a famous person in the memory of his previous life.
"Sasai, Sasai, I have one more useful subordinate now, although I still need to train him." Aoyama squinted and thought about it. She was in a good mood.
Not long after, a new visitor arrived.
"Dong dong!"
"Brother Aoyama, can I come in?" A playful and cute voice asked from outside the door. But before Moonlight could say anything, Hua Huo had already pushed the door open and entered.
The eleven-year-old girl was already slender and elegant. She had snow-white skin and sandalwood-like black hair that reached her waist. Her beautiful face carried a vibrant smile. She walked, sat, and reclined with the demeanor of a noble family.
"You're not cultivating today?" Moonlight stood up, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up. Her originally good mood could be said to be completely joyful.
"Father seems to be very busy these days. He went into the library with Elder Pegasus and didn't come out. I don't know what he's busy with." Hanoi pouted and was very unhappy.
Aoyama was speechless. He knew in his heart that it was because of Madara's appearance, which caused a lot of pressure on his future father-in-law. He was probably reading some ancient books. The Hyuga family's library was not much worse than the Kiba library. Some of the secrets were even more comprehensive.
"What? Brother Aoyama, don't you want me to come and see you? "Hanoi squinted her beautiful eyes and glanced at Aoyama with a tense face.
"Of course not! I'm more than happy to see you! " It was a pity that even though he had lived two lives, Moonlight's EQ did not improve. He was easily controlled by the young girl who had self-taught him.
Well … it wasn't necessarily a bad thing.
After chatting with Hua Huo for a while, he promised to accompany her to go shopping, cultivate, and so on. After making a lot of promises, Hua Huo finally talked about her real purpose. "I'm here today to ask you something."
"What is it? Just say it, I promise to tell you everything I know. "
"Well, my sister asked me to ask if that idiot Naruto is okay. I heard that he was hospitalized, but when I went to the hospital, they said that he had already left … "Hanoi said.
Aoyama's mouth twitched. What did she mean by 'that idiot Naruto'? This was definitely not Hinata's original words. Moreover, Hinata would never ask about this kind of thing so directly.
"Is this what Hinata wants to ask?" Aoyama looked at her with a probing gaze.
"Is this very important?" Hanoi smiled sweetly. Her sharp gaze defeated Aoyama's probing gaze.
Aoyama was instantly defeated. She quickly said, "Naruto is fine. He is currently cultivating with Master Jiraiya. There are also two experts that I sent from the root with them. The place that they went to is very secluded, so you don't have to worry about their safety. However, it won't be easy for you to meet them."
"Tsk!"
Hanoi's face immediately fell. She looked very displeased.
"Hanoi, are you trying to matchmake Hinata and Naruto?" Aoyama asked carefully.
"Do I even need to say it? Isn't it obvious? My sister only has eyes for that idiot Naruto. Other than that idiot, my sister will never accept a second person in her life … "
"Oh … That's really tough." Aoyama nodded. Naruto was a stubborn idiot, and Hinata was extremely shy. If there were no external forces involved, they probably wouldn't be together even in a hundred years.
"Aoyama!" Hanoi stared at Aoyama with sparkling eyes.
"What's wrong?" Aoyama tensed up.
"You have to help me with my sister's problem too," Hanoi said with a smile.
"Huh? What can I do … "
"You have to help me. As for the solution, isn't it because someone else came up with it? Hehe, good luck. I'm going back today. Also, don't forget what you promised me. "Hua Huo left after saying that. Her footsteps were as light as a butterfly's as she flew away.
… ….
"… Why do I feel like I've agreed to something very troublesome?" Aoyama collapsed on the sofa and let out a long sigh. This is really a big problem. Matchmaking Hinata and Naruto, it's definitely not easy to be a matchmaker.
"Well, let's talk about it later. Right now, the most important thing is to cultivate." Aoyama patted his forehead to get rid of the messy thoughts in his mind. He focused his mind on cultivation again. The last time he fought with White Zetsu's Wood Golem Jutsu, it gave him a lot of inspiration.
In his previous life, at the end of the Fourth Shinobi World War, no matter if it was a friend or a foe, everyone was crazy. Moving mountains and rivers was a piece of cake. Destroying the world was the main course. The whole shinobi world was a mess.
"I need to have more power, more destructive power, to be qualified to participate in the future war …" Aoyama's eyes became deep. He gently held the Hyorinmaru, and the cold air overflowed. The tea in the cup on the coffee table was frozen.
