Perhaps because he was worried about the clan's affairs, Zhu Jian only stayed in Maelstrom with Mito for one night, and then left Maelstrom under the reluctant eyes of the Uzumaki patriarch.
When they came, they came in a group of three, and when they left, Masahiko was with them. The group of four returned to the Senshoku clan.
Along the way, Masahiko had a bitter look on his face, and from time to time, he glared at Tokuma.
Tokuma didn't know how he offended Masahiko, and he didn't know that Masahiko even wanted to kidnap him and release him after he developed the Impure Earth Tensei …
In this awkward atmosphere, the group of four arrived at the Senshoku clan.
Seeing the Senshoku people bowing their heads and greeting Zhu Jian, Masahiko suddenly remembered that Zhu Jian was already the patriarch of the clan.
After sending Mito home, he followed Zhu Jian to the patriarch's hall. Watching Zhu Jian skillfully deal with the affairs of the clan, Masahiko finally saw the other side of the Ninja God.
About an hour later, it was noon, and Masahiko was already sleepy.
Zhu Jian finally dealt with the things that had accumulated in the past two days, and said, "Grandpa, I'm sorry to keep you waiting."
"It's okay, you go ahead, I'll take a nap." Masahiko replied half-asleep.
"My big brother has finished dealing with the affairs of the clan, Grandpa, it's time to go!" Tokuma shouted.
Masahiko was startled, and murmured in his heart, "Sure enough, I should kidnap this kid and let him develop ninjutsu for me …"
"No, Tokuma, you stay this time." Zhu Jian said, "I don't know how long I and Grandpa will be gone, you stay in the clan and help me deal with things …"
"The last sentence should be the main point," Tokuma thought. "Isn't it because he's afraid of accumulating too many things to deal with when he comes back?"
However, Tokuma only thought about it and finally agreed reluctantly.
Zhu Jian's face lit up and he said, "Second Grandpa, shall we go now? It's a long journey, so we'll have to find a small town to rest at night. We won't be able to arrive until tomorrow evening. "
"It's actually that far? Let's have a good meal first … "Masahiko felt a little hungry. He wouldn't be able to have a good meal tonight and tomorrow.
"Alright …" Zhu Jian had no choice but to order his clansmen to prepare a sumptuous lunch. After eating and drinking his fill, Masahiko followed Zhu Jian to the Libra Tribe's territory.
After traveling for an entire afternoon, the two of them still couldn't find a town they could stay in by evening.
It made sense. In this chaotic world, it would be good if there were a few civilian villages outside the Fire Nation's capital.
In the end, Masahiko and Zhu Jian had no choice but to continue traveling. When it was late at night, they would find an empty place to eat something and stay for the night.
Masahiko wasn't picky. On the contrary, he was rather excited.
'Could this be' The Days I Lived and Ate Together with the God of Ninjas'? 'Masahiko thought.
Of course, Zhu Jian wouldn't think of the thoughts that flashed through Masahiko's mind. He thought for a while and said, "Second Grandpa, I'll sleep first. You can keep watch for the first half of the night, and I'll keep watch for the second half."
"You still have to keep watch? You can just build a house with your wood-release technique …" Masahiko said faintly.
"Uh, that's true." Zhu Jian seemed to have come to a sudden realization.
'As expected, the Zhu Jian handling official business is the fake Zhu Jian …' Masahiko murmured in his heart.
After Zhu Jian finished building the wooden house, the two of them went in to rest. The night passed uneventfully.
The next morning, the two of them tidied up briefly and ate something. Then, the two of them continued on their journey.
They didn't rest at noon either. The two of them kept on traveling and finally arrived near the Libra Clan in the evening.
Masahiko sensed the Chakra fluctuations of the Libra Clan and discovered that the strongest member of the clan was only close to a peak-level jonin. However, there was a strange feeling in their Chakra.
'Nature Energy?' Masahiko was puzzled. 'But something's not right. Nature Energy shouldn't give off an evil feeling, right?'
"Second Grandpa, that's the Libra Clan's territory," Zhu Jian said.
"Ah, I sense it." Masahiko replied, "Indeed, something's not right. Their Chakra isn't strong, but there's a strange feeling. Speaking of which, where are the people stationed in Senshoku? "
"They're not far from there." Zhu Jian pointed to the side and asked, puzzled, "Didn't you sense them, Second Grandpa?"
The two of them looked at each other. Zhu Jian immediately became nervous. He was worried about the Senshoku clansmen who were stationed here.
The two of them searched around but didn't find any traces of the Senshoku clansmen. After searching for about two hours, they finally found the Senshoku's camp several kilometers away.
Zhu Jian had a worried expression on his face. He wondered if the clansmen had suffered heavy losses and had retreated far away from the Libra Clan's territory.
When the two of them arrived at the camp, they discovered that things weren't as Zhu Jian had feared.
The camp was filled with cheers and laughter. The Senshoku clansmen didn't look like they had just gone through a war. They looked like they were camping …
"Ah, Chief, you're back!" A few Senshoku clansmen noticed Zhu Jian and Kuroto and immediately greeted them.
"Where's Senshoku Tenyu?" Zhu Jian heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that the clansmen in the camp were safe and sound. He asked about the situation of the peak ninjas who were stationed here.
"The captain is in the big tent at the center of the camp. I'll bring you there now." A superior ninja noticed Zhu Jian's arrival and took the initiative to lead the way.
Masahiko and Zhu Jian arrived at the big tent at the center. Senshoku Tenyu, who was sitting on the main seat, immediately stood up and said, "Chief, you're back?"
"Mm-hm. I wasn't around for the past few days. The clansmen …" Zhu Jian was filled with questions.
"Here's the thing, Chief. On the second day after you left, the Libra Tribe took the initiative to seek peace with us. The leader of the Libra Tribe explained that their clansmen had only attacked our clansmen because they had lost their rationality. They also compensated us with a lot of resources. "
"So, since they took the initiative to apologize, it wouldn't be good for us to continue camping near their territory. So, we moved here to wait for you," Senshoku Tenyu explained.
"Then … are the clansmen outside having a banquet?" Zhu Jian asked again.
"Uh …" Senshoku Tenyu looked ashamed. "The clansmen have been fighting for years and haven't had a chance to relax for a long time. So, now that we have nothing to do, I arranged for everyone to have a banquet and relax. "
"It's fine. As long as the clansmen are safe, I can rest easy." Zhu Jian said. He turned to Masahiko and said, "Second Grandpa, I'm sorry. I might have made you come here for nothing …"
Masahiko smiled and said, "It's fine. I'll just take it that I came out to relax."
"Chief, there's one more thing." At this moment, Senshoku Tenyu spoke again, "The leader of the Libra Tribe hopes to meet you when you return. He seems to have something else to tell you. However, your safety … "
"Alright, I got it. I'll rest for the night. I'll go tomorrow," Zhu Jian replied. As for the issue of safety, Zhu Jian was clearly very confident in his own strength. "Second Grandpa, do you want to come with me?"
"Mm-hm, I'll go too." Masahiko recalled the strange Chakra that he sensed and agreed to go with Zhu Jian without hesitation.
He had a feeling that this trip would not be in vain.
