After Kakashi's celebration, everyone left the barbecue restaurant and returned home.
As usual, Watergate sent Kushina back to her house.
When they reached the gate, Shinna Kushina suddenly stopped and said, "Hey, Watergate, let's go out of the village tomorrow to carry out a mission, okay?"
Watergate was stunned for a moment, then said, "Okay …"
Originally, he wanted to go out of the village to investigate because of the anomaly in space-time, but it shouldn't take too long to carry out a mission with Shinna Kushina.
He could take advantage of this time to make a good plan.
However, after Watergate agreed to Shinna Kushina's request, he saw a strange look in her eyes.
Immediately, he asked, "What's wrong?"
Shinna Kushina pondered for a moment, then raised her eyes to look at Watergate, frowned, and said, "Today, before we went to celebrate with little Kakashi, for a few minutes, I suddenly had a very strange feeling in my heart, as if something very important was calling out to me …"
When Watergate heard this, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Because the time that Shinna Kushina mentioned was the time when he sensed the anomaly in space-time.
Could it be that she could also sense this?
Come to think of it, it was because of Shinna Kushina that he was able to travel through time and space to more than ten years before the Nine Tails incident.
Could it be that there was some kind of connection between the two?
"I want to go out of the village to carry out a mission, in fact, I also want to find the source of this feeling. Am I being a little too willful?"
Shinna Kushina asked tentatively. She also knew that her identity was special, and she couldn't just leave Wood Leaf Village.
But she didn't know that Watergate's heart was in turmoil at this moment. The latter was thinking about everything he knew so far.
"Watergate, what's wrong?" Shinna Kushina saw him in a daze and asked.
Watergate thought for a while and gradually came back to his senses. He turned his head and smiled at Shinna Kushina. "It's nothing. Since Shinna Kushina is looking for something, I'll go with you."
"Great!"
Shinna Kushina was so excited that she threw herself into Watergate's arms and laughed.
Watergate's gaze turned heavy. No matter what, he had to find out the cause of this anomaly in space-time. Whether or not Shinna Kushina was aware of it, she was most likely involved in this matter.
This time, taking her out of the village may be dangerous, but Watergate believes that with his current strength, even if Uchiha Madara is really alive in this world, he can take her back.
Therefore, the two of them agreed to go to Naruto's place early in the morning to accept the mission. After that, they went home separately.
...
Early the next morning, Shinna Kushina came to Watergate's house.
Watergate also just got up. The two of them had a simple breakfast and were ready to go out and go to Naruto's building.
However, just as the two of them stepped out of the house, an Anbu appeared in front of them.
"Watergate -sama, Naruto -sama is looking for you for an urgent mission!"
The Anbu said. With Watergate's reputation in the ninja world and his status in the Wood Leaf clan, although he is young, his status in the village has long been second only to the village's top leaders and the Sannin Sho Sho.
Watergate heard this and couldn't help but be surprised. He didn't know what kind of mission it was and why it was so urgent.
He glanced at Shinna Kushina next to him. She said: "Since it's an urgent mission, you should go quickly!"
She naturally knows the priorities. Watergate nodded, then put his palm on the shoulder of the Anbu.
Whoosh!
The Anbu was a little surprised, and the two of them disappeared in front of Watergate's house.
...
Naruto's office.
"Naruto -sama, what happened? Why are you looking for me in such a hurry?"
Soon after, Watergate appeared in front of Sandaime Naruto.
Sandaime Naruto nodded and said: "A few days ago, the intelligence department intercepted an intelligence letter from Sunagakure."
Saying that, Sandaime handed a scroll on the table to Watergate.
The latter took it. Watergate didn't think there was anything wrong with intercepting intelligence from other countries.
Although after the end of the Second Shinobi World War, because of the emergence of the Sannin and Wood Leaf and White Fang, the other major ninja countries were afraid of the power of Wood Leaf and had no choice but to sign a peace treaty.
But everyone knows that this so-called contract is just a concession made by the other major ninja countries due to the situation and their own interests.
In fact, in the years after the end of World War II, the ninja countries were still fighting with each other. Intercepting and stealing intelligence, and even small ninja conflicts were commonplace.
Watergate, who knows the history, knows that this superficial peace will eventually break. After all, the major ninja countries have their own dignity, and naturally, they won't let Wood Leaf grow stronger.
This is the reason for the outbreak of the Third Shinobi World War. In the same year, the disappearance of the Third Kazekage, Sho Sho, and the suicide of Hatake Sho Sho because of the failure of the mission.
However, because of the emergence of Watergate, a lot of history has changed. One of the Sannin, Tsunade, didn't suffer from hemophobia. Watergate's rapid rise also made the major ninja countries afraid.
Although he knows that this fear will become the fuse of war sooner or later.
But Watergate is not afraid. Although he doesn't want to see war, he is not afraid of war.
He was once able to turn the tide of war by himself. After his rebirth, he is more confident that he can make the major ninja countries experience the power of Wood Leaf's Golden Flash and the power of Wood Leaf in a much shorter time than the previous war.
Picking up the scroll given by Sandaime, Watergate's brows couldn't help but frown.
This information is about an independent country located in the desert of the Land of Wind. If you talk about history, I'm afraid it's a country that has a longer history than the five major ninja countries.
Roran.
"Please report that Her Majesty the Queen of Roran suddenly died a few months ago. We have known this information for a long time. At first, I thought it was Sunagakure's doing, but it wasn't until I got this information that I realized they were also in the dark." Sandaime said.
Watergate nodded. He also knows about Roran. Although this ancient country is located in the Land of Wind, it is almost completely isolated from the world. It doesn't participate in the battle between the five major ninja countries.
However, a few months ago, the sudden death of Roran's Queen made Sunagakure and Wood Leaf slightly stunned.
Loulan was only a small country and didn't have any particularly powerful armed forces. The reason why it could survive until now in the Wind Country was because of its special location.
[Dragon Vein]
When Watergate saw this word in the report, he couldn't help but tremble.
Because the so-called Dragon Vein is said to flow under the ground of Roran, representing endless power.
It is said that this power will protect Roran and its people. The reason why the so-called Queen of Roran can become the Queen is not because of her own strength.
It's because her family has the special power to manipulate the Dragon Vein.
With the power of the Dragon Vein, Roran can occupy a corner in this chaotic world where ninjas are the mainstream and war is constant.
This reminded Minato of the night of the Nine Tails incident, when there was an anomaly in space-time.
