The next morning, Raijin directly left the main force and went ahead to scout.
Because three Jonin suddenly appeared, Raijin was even more cautious this time.
The range of the heart net was once again enlarged by Raijin, from the original 500 meters, it has now become 1000 meters.
A full kilometer distance, even if the opponent is a Jonin level, Raijin also has enough time to react.
But in fact, Maki Masato just died in Sarutobi Hiruzen's hands yesterday, and there is no danger at all in these two days.
Even if the Kumogakure rebel ninja team wants to send people out to investigate, it will have to be at least two days later.
But these two days, Senju Tobirama in Konohagakure received the information passed back by Sarutobi.
"Maki Masato…"
Senju Tobirama put the scroll in his hand on the table, his eyebrows tightly furrowed.
A huge doubt emerged in Senju Tobirama's heart.
Senju Tobirama knew about the turmoil that occurred in Kumogakure a few years ago, and Senju Tobirama also paid attention to it, but he did not pay too much attention.
Because there is still a Land of Moon and Land of Hot Water between Kumogakure and Konohagakure.
Let them make a fuss, the bigger the fuss, the better.
But the actual situation is that after that turmoil, the situation calmed down.
Only Kumogakure announced to the outside world that the second Raikage died in battle, Kinkaku Ginkaku was killed, the rebels have been suppressed, and then, this matter is like it never happened again.
Even in these years, Konohagakure's ninjas have not failed to take on escort missions to the Land of Moon or Land of Hot Water.
But there has never been any major problem, even if there is some loss, but it is also within the normal range.
So why did this rebel force suddenly emerge this time?
Senju Tobirama does not doubt that the information passed back by Sarutobi Hiruzen is false.
After all, Sarutobi Hiruzen has no reason to do so, and such a lie is easy to investigate.
Then there is only one possibility left, that is, the Kumogakure rebel ninja team was indeed suppressed by Kumogakure.
But the situation is definitely not as optimistic as Kumogakure said. According to the current results, then, basically a conclusion can be drawn, that is, the most optimistic situation of that rebellion at the beginning is that both sides suffered.
And in these four or five years, the Kumogakure rebel ninja team should have been lurking in the Land of Moon or Land of Hot Water to recuperate.
And now, the strength has accumulated to a certain extent, but because the volume has become larger, so the resources needed are more.
They began to target the past merchants.
As for which is stronger, the rebel ninja squad or the current Kumogakure, Senju Tobirama couldn't really tell for a moment.
But what can be certain is that neither of them has completely suppressed the power of the other.
Otherwise, those renegade ninjas would not be targeting past merchants, but would be attacking Kumogakure or continuing to lurk.
In this way, it is also an opportunity to weaken the strength of Kumogakure.
Senju Tobirama pondered for a moment, gently tapped the table, and an Anbu appeared in front of Senju Tobirama.
"Go and call Uchiha Motohide, the head of the Konohagakure Police Department."
"Yes."
Upon hearing this, the Anbu's figure instantly disappeared on the spot.
In a short while, Uchiha Motohide's figure appeared in front of Senju Tobirama.
"Motohide, is the Konohagakure Police Department busy now?"
Seeing Uchiha Motohide, a smile also appeared at the corner of Senju Tobirama's mouth.
Thanks to Raijin and Tsunade, the Senju and Uchiha families are not as tense as before.
This scene is naturally what Senju Tobirama likes to see.
Even, Senju Tobirama is now looking forward to what the descendants of Raijin and Tsunade will look like after they are together.
I don't know if I have the hope to see that scene.
"I just finished being busy a few days ago, and I can still do it these days."
Upon hearing this, Motohide said to Senju Tobirama.
"Well, something happened here, and after thinking about it, I think it's more appropriate to give it to you."
Upon hearing this, Senju Tobirama said to Uchiha Motohide.
"Oh? Mission?"
Upon hearing this, Uchiha Motohide asked Senju Tobirama, Raijin and Tsunade's relationship is here.
If possible, help Senju Tobirama do some things, even if it is a private matter, it is not impossible.
"It's like this, Sarutobi Hiruzen's team is now on the border of Land of Fire and Land of Hot Water, and they have encountered a renegade ninja squad from Kumogakure. I hope Uchiha can send someone to respond to them."
Upon hearing this, Senju Tobirama said to Uchiha Motohide.
"The rebel ninja squad of Kumogakure? Kinkaku and Ginkaku?"
Uchiha Motohide frowned slightly, of course Motohide knew about Sarutobi Hiruzen's team, his son Raijin and Tsunade were in that team.
"I don't know if Kinkaku and Ginkaku is still alive, but that rebel ninja squad should not be weaker than Kumogakure."
Senju Tobirama said to Uchiha Motohide.
"Now the people of the Senju family are basically doing tasks outside of the village, Danzo and they are still young, so I can only ask you for help."
"Hokage-sama, there is no problem to support Sarutobi Hiruzen's team, but what is our task? Should we help to to attack Kumogakure's rebel or should we help Sarutobi's team to come back?"
Upon hearing this, Motohide directly said to Senju Tobirama.
Senju Tobirama said to Motohide upon hearing this.
"Of course it is to help them to come back. The rebel ninja squad is Kumogakure's internal problem. What does it have to do with us Konohagakure?"
"Okay, then I will go to gather manpower."
Upon hearing the words, Motohide nodded at Senju Tobirama and vanished from the Hokage's office.
Seeing Uchiha Motohide leave, Senju Tobirama immediately took out a scroll.
He began to convey the latest instructions to Sarutobi Hiruzen.
...
"Teacher, what happened?"
He just returned to the Konohagakure Police Department, a young Uchiha came to Uchiha Motohide's side.
"Raijin had an accident. He encountered an attack from the Kumogakure renegade ninja squad at the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Hot Water."
Motohide said to his disciple, Uchiha Hoshino.
"Then I'll go gather people."
Uchiha Hoshino nodded and prepared to leave.
"No need to gather too many people, just assemble the first and second squads."
Uchiha Motohide said to Hoshino.
"Okay."
Hoshino nodded, left here to gather people.
The current Konohagakure Police Department is almost entirely composed of Uchiha, with a total of three squads.
Uchiha Motohide, this time, has gathered nearly two-thirds of the Uchiha's power.
...
"Be careful, we should receive news from the village today."
Sarutobi Hiruzen said to Raijin. Under Sarutobi Hiruzen's suggestion, the caravan's speed has become very slow. It took nearly three days and they haven't even entered the border of the Land of Hot Water.
But, Takenaka Heizo didn't dare to say anything. It's better to be slow than to have all the goods robbed.
