“Yes, Little Tsunade at most.” Hashirama, who had already put on the royal robe, picked up Little Tsunade.

“Alright, Hashirama, we should go again.”

After everyone had finished putting on their clothes, Washi said to Hashirama that was still teasing Little Tsunade.

Hashirama held Tsunade and nodded. “Okay, when you come back from Kirigakure, I should be mostly recovered. When the time comes, we should go together to deal with that Akatsuki.”

Because Washi, Minato and Hashirama had discussed before, Hashirama still needed to rest to alleviate the residual effects of the last battle with Madara.

Therefore, for the sake of no casualties in the team, Washi did not set his first target on Akatsuki. Although his side had strength similar to the other side without Hashirama, it was because of this that Washi did not rashly launch an attack on Akatsuki.

Their strength was almost the same, which meant that there would definitely be casualties in the battle. Washi didn’t want to see this casualty. In the time after that, he could slowly gather the Hokage in the warehouse. The longer the time, the stronger his side would be. Therefore, Washi didn’t bring everyone and immediately rushed to the base of Akatsuki.

“Okay, when I come back from Kirigakure, let’s go to Akatsuki together.” After Washi replied to Hashirama with a smile, he led the team and left the City Lord’s Mansion of Sujo City in an orderly manner.

The most reluctant person in the team was Tobirama, who was a young man. He stayed at the door for a long time, and under the urging of Hashirama, he rushed to Washi and others who had already left.

“I haven’t left Sujo City for a long time.”

Washi, who had been staying in Sujo City for a few days, said to the lush forest outside the city as he walked out of Sujo City’s gate.

At this time, because the temperature was gradually rising, the trade and commerce in various places began to become active again. As one of the most important cities on the border between Amagakure and the Land of Fire, there were more and more people coming and going in Sujo City.

When a group of Washi teams wearing dark blue royal robes passed by, they attracted the attention of these passers-by.

“Which Ninja is this? Why haven’t I seen this dress before?”

“This looks a bit like the clothes of those Kage.”

“What? Shadow? Don’t talk nonsense. There are only five Kages in the whole Ninja World. You can count how many people they have.”

“I said the dress is similar, but I didn’t say it…”

Washi and the others did not pay attention to the words of these passers-by, but quickly walked on the road to the sea of the Land of Fire.

From Amagakure to the Land of Water, they had to pass through the entire Land of Fire, so there were still many roads that Washi and the others had to take.

However, after the previous experience of going to Konoha, Washi was very skilled in walking.

After awakening Danzo and Hinata, Washi’s chakra had also increased substantially. Now, even Orochimaru and the others could not compare to Washi’s chakra. Not only that, but Washi’s release of Ninjutsu became faster and faster. Some of the less complicated Ninjutsu, Washi could also clap his hands and shout.

“This time, we will pass by Konoha. Washi-sama, do you want to go and take a look?” On the way, perhaps because the experiment was not too boring, Orochimaru took the initiative to approach Washi, and said to him with an ugly smile on his face.

Under Orochimaru’s question, Washi did not slow down his speed. Instead, he said to Orochimaru while walking, “What? You want to go back?”

“I don’t have that idea.” As he spoke, Orochimaru’s smile became strange, “But that Danzo san seems to want to go and take a look.”

As for the sudden appearance of Danzo in the party, Orochimaru had always wanted to strike up a conversation with him ever since he left the City Lord’s Mansion, but unfortunately, this Danzo was not the teacher of his own time and space, so he had no choice but to go and strike up a conversation.

Danzo did not pay any attention to Orochimaru, and instead opened up a distance between him and Orochimaru.

“He ignored you, how do you know?” Washi also knew that Orochimaru went to meet the cold, so Washi said this.

Orochimaru still did not take back his smile, which seemed to be hanging on it, “I heard it when Tobirama-sama talked to Danzo-sama.”

“Your hearing is not bad.” Washi was amused by Orochimaru’s words. You were at least five meters away from Danzo, and you actually heard the conversation between Tobirama and Danzo. “Maybe I will go, or maybe I won’t go. Do you want to go to Hiruzen or Danzo?”

“Neither…”

Originally, Orochimaru wanted to say something, but when his eyes glanced at Jiraya who was approaching, he quickly stopped.

“It won’t be long before we reach Konoha.”

After coming to Washi, the first thing he said was to mention Konoha.

“Did you two discuss it?” Hearing the word “Konoha” from Jiraya, Washi glanced at the two for a moment and then said to Jiraya.

“What’s wrong?” Jiraya, who didn’t know what was going on, looked at Orochimaru and responded, “Didn’t he say it just now?”

“Yes, he said it before you came.” Washi nodded and said, “When we pass by, we might go in. However, I’m afraid that before we reach Konoha, the ninjas inside will come out to welcome us.”

Although Washi said the word “welcome”, everyone knew that this kind of welcome was likely to have all kinds of Ninjutsu fireworks.

Hearing Washi’s words, Jiraya looked down at the dark blue royal robe on his body, wondering what kind of expression his teacher Hiruzen would have when he saw it.

As the group talked, they were getting closer and closer to Konoha. Because they were not dragged by the children, their speed was very fast. It was more than twice as fast as the last time Washi went to Konoha with Hashirama. Because of this reason, it didn’t take long for Washi and his group to arrive at the city closest to Konoha.

Because of the unique temperament of this team, on the way from Sujo City to Konoha, they didn’t encounter any attacks from the rebels. When they encountered this team, they consciously made way.

“We finally arrived at the city.” Washi, who had lived in the wilderness for two days, breathed a sigh of relief when he entered the city. Today, he could finally sleep in bed.

“By the way, Jiraya, before we entered Konoha, we met you here.” After entering the city, Washi suddenly remembered the last time he met Jiraya in this city.

However, he was only monitored once, so he didn’t have any impression of him.

“Yes, Jiraya-sensei, next to a bathhouse.” Minato happened to be walking next to the two of them, and he explained to Jiraya.

“Hey, hey, that seems to be the case.” As soon as he heard about the bathhouse, he recalled that before he went back to Konoha to fight against Hashirama, he was indeed looking for materials in this city.

However, Jiraya’s strange laughter was met with Female Orochimaru’s rolling eyes.
