Chapter 71: Wind Shadow's Conspiracy(1/3)
The war between Sunagakure and Konoha has been going on for two years, but compared to Sunagakure, Konoha's war-weariness is very strong.
Before the battle with Sunagakure, Konoha had already fought against the Amegakure ninjas in the Land of Rain. Many ninjas were already exhausted physically and mentally. Under such circumstances, it is conceivable that they would be brought into the rhythm of war by Sunagakure.
, to what extent Konoha is tired of the war.
Therefore, when the Third Kazekage submitted the settlement letter, according to Shiraishi's estimation, Konoha was very likely to agree.
After all, this has always been the main strategy adopted by Konoha.
Continuing to spend time with Sunagakure will only benefit other ninja village fishermen.
"Really, the fight has already reached this level. All we need to do is defeat Sunagakure in one go. This way, if we submit the settlement letter painlessly, we will still come back in the future."
Liuli sat on a stone with a look of dissatisfaction on her face.
It had only been more than a month since she came out of the village, and she still hadn't had the pleasure of fighting the Suna ninjas. If the war ended at this time, the mission of Sakumo's team would also be over.
"You can't say that, because the ninjas in many villages in the camp have become war-weary, and Sunagakure is almost the same. A peaceful ending at this time will be beneficial to both parties. As for the future... we will talk about it later."
Out of the considerations a Konoha ninja should have, Shiraishi believed that this was indeed the best solution.
"Great, I thought I wouldn't be able to go back to the village to celebrate the New Year this year. After all, I'm still looking forward to this year's festival."
Ayane said with a smile from the side.
Shiraishi turned his head to the other side, pretending not to hear this sentence.
"That's true. The war will end soon, and we can go back to participate in the New Year's festival... Moreover, I also want to go back and visit Kakashi."
Sakumo heard the three people communicating there and said with a smile.
"Kakashi?"
The three people in Shiraishi were attracted by this name.
"Ah, didn't I tell you?"
Sakumo blinked in confusion.
"No, I have never heard of this person at all. By the way...who is he?"
Shiraishi shook his head.
"He is my son, Hatake Kakashi. Although he is only two years old this year, I believe he will be an excellent ninja in the future."
Sakumo said this.
"son!?"
Baishi and the other three were stunned and shouted loudly.
This matter could no longer be described as surprise. They had never heard of the fact that Sakumo had a son.
"What, is there something wrong?"
Sakumo looked at the three of them strangely.
"No... I thought you were still single, Mr. Sakumo, but I didn't expect that not only were you married, but you also had a son..."
Ayane quickly explained.
Shiraishi and Ruri also nodded. In their eyes, Sakumo did have such an image.
"Sorry, I thought I mentioned this already."
"It's okay, I'm just a little surprised to hear it suddenly. After all, this is a private matter. Before graduating from the ninja school, we had no contact with Mr. Sakumo. So, Mr. Sakumo's son is already two years old... Hata
Mukakashi, it’s a very good name.”
Ayane smiled.
But I was thinking in my heart: What kind of name should I and Shiraishi-kun’s child have in the future?
"Speaking of it, I am a bit derelict as a father. I was unable to go back to the village to celebrate my child's birthday on his birthday in September. In the blink of an eye, it is already November."
"There will be another chance next year. Then it will be great for Mr. Sakumo to treat us."
Shiraishi smiled.
The corner of Sakumo's mouth twitched. When he mentioned the treat, he seemed to suddenly recall some bad memories.
He didn't want to find himself on the verge of bankruptcy on his son's birthday, which was a mixture of joy and sorrow.
"Really? That's great. I'll go there on an empty stomach that day. Just be prepared, Sakumo-sensei."
Ayane confirmed the matter with a smile.
Sakumo sighed. It looked like he couldn't save his wallet, and then he looked at Liuli.
"Don't look at me like that. It's your son's birthday party. Wouldn't it be too disrespectful for me to pay for it? After all, you are Lord White Fang."
No, I don't care about face. Hearing Liuli's ruthless rejection, Sakumo complained in his heart.

Two days later, it was the day when Konoha and Sunagakure formally concluded a reconciliation letter and signed an armistice agreement.
The weather is clear and sunny.
Sakumo's team set out to return to the Konoha camp on the border of the Land of Fire.
The armistice agreement was signed at nine o'clock in the morning.
It's four o'clock in the afternoon.
In other words, the armistice agreement with Sunagakure has been signed, and this news should have been sent back to the camp long ago, and will be sent back to the village as quickly as possible.
However, when they returned to the camp at five o'clock in the afternoon, the four members of Sakumo's team felt something was wrong.
Too boring.
It's better to say it's sadness.
The four of them looked at each other, wondering what happened.
Although some people will definitely be sad knowing that the war is over, it won't be so boring.
In this dullness, there is also a rage and murderous intention that wants to devour everything.
"What's going on here?"
"I don't know, what happened?"
Shiraishi touched his chin and began to think.
Is there something wrong with the agreement?
Could it be said that Sunagakure has no intention to fulfill the agreement?
Otherwise it would be impossible to explain all this.
"You are also a medical ninja, right? Go to the medical department quickly, they are in urgent need of manpower!"
At this moment, a Konoha ninja quickly ran over and said to Shiraishi anxiously.
Shiraishi looked at Sakumo, who nodded, and Shiraishi followed the ninja to the camp where the medical team was located.
"You guys take a rest here, I'll go find Orochimaru to find out the situation."
Ruri and Ayane nodded and followed Sakumo's instructions.
——The camp where the medical unit is located.
Tragic!
It can only be described in two words: tragic.
Dozens of Konoha ninjas fell in the tent with bloody bodies. Their screams of pain were like those of ghosts, which made Shiraishi lose consciousness for a moment.
How is this going?
These injuries should have been caused recently... no, today?
what happens?
Shiraishi didn't ask, and immediately followed a medical ninja who was skilled in medical ninjutsu. All of these dozens of ninjas needed emergency surgery.
Moreover, during the first aid process, there must be some seriously injured people who cannot be taken care of and die directly because they cannot bear the pain.
Sobbing and wailing sounds converged in one place.
Every medical ninja was so busy that they were sweating profusely and had no time for unnecessary communication.
The first aid was completed after two hours.
It's not that the first aid was successful. It ended so early because many people died prematurely before surgery.
Some patients were treated with surgery but still died.
Only a dozen people were pulled back from the gate of hell.
"We tried our best."
The attending medical ninja patted Shiraishi on the shoulder, as if he was worried about the psychological burden on a young medical ninja like him, and comforted him.
