Chapter 254

"Teacher Kakashi, you are late again!"

Hinata pointed at Kakashi with a look of displeasure on her face. Kakashi came later than the girls. No wonder he is still single.

"Ah! I am lost in the road of life." Kakashi's answer was not sincere at all.

After a long delay, it was already past nine o'clock in 'Hinata time' when Hinata and Kakashi set out... two o'clock in the afternoon in Konoha time.

In fact, Kakashi was not late for too long, but when Kakashi arrived, it was already noon in Konoha time. Hinata and Kakashi found a restaurant to have a meal.

Not long after walking out of Konoha, Hinata looked at Kakashi with a sleepy face.

"Teacher Kakashi, why don't we find a place to adjust to the time difference! Otherwise, we will be exhausted when we arrive at the Sand Village."

Hinata felt that there must be a time difference between her and Kakashi's time and Konoha time, just like BJ time and NY time.

Although Kakashi was also weak, he rejected Hinata's proposal righteously.

"Hinata, if we hurry up, we can go to the Sand Village to sleep..."

At this point, Kakashi coughed lightly, bent down to Hinata's ear, and said mysteriously: "We are the messengers of Konoha, and we will be treated preferentially in the Sand Village!"

"I see!"

Hinata's eyes lit up, "Teacher Kakashi is wise!"

The original work has proved more than once that Kakashi is actually a stingy person.

When he took Naruto to practice the Rasenshuriken, Kakashi, Yamato, and Naruto ate noodles together. It was clearly agreed that Kakashi would treat them, but Kakashi, as a 'senior', forced Yamato to pay the bill.

Chakra wings gathered behind him, and at the same time, a chakra arm stretched out to wrap around Kakashi... It looked like wings and a tail!

"Teacher Kakashi, I'll take you flying!"

Chakra was sprayed under her feet, and her chakra wings flapped quickly. Hinata jumped into the sky and rushed towards the direction of Sand Village with Kakashi.

Hinata flew in front, and Kakashi was hung behind Hinata.

Seeing that Hinata did not open her Byakugan, Kakashi carefully touched his wallet, and the small money inside was finally saved.

Compared to this kind of mission, Kakashi actually preferred to carry out dangerous missions with Hinata...because in this way, Kakashi could live in a cave with Hinata openly.

"But..."

Looking at Hinata's relaxed look, Kakashi still couldn't help being a little shocked in his heart.

The last time he carried out a mission with Hinata, Hinata still needed to open her Byakugan to spray chakra from her whole body, but now she doesn't even need to open her Byakugan.

"I'm making progress so fast!"

Kakashi felt a little complicated. While he was pleased, he also felt that the new generation was better than the old.

Young people grow up too fast, which always makes the older generation feel unfulfilled.

"But I haven't done nothing during this period of time!"

Kakashi has been working hard secretly during this period of time, especially when he went to Sand Village with Hinata last time, Hinata and Kakashi mentioned the idea of ​​integrating Yin escape into Light escape, which also gave Kakashi a lot of inspiration.

For Kakashi who has the Mangekyō Sharingan, mastering Yin escape is not difficult.

Hindata rushed all the way, with strong chakra, and did not care about consumption. In just three hours, the outline of Sand Village appeared vaguely in Hinata's vision.

"Teacher Kakashi, do you think we can fly directly into the village?"

Kakashi rolled his eyes and said helplessly: "Don't be too arrogant, we will be attacked!"

Hinata snorted.

"Then let them try!"

Although she said so, Hinata still landed in front of the narrow sky of Sand Village. Before landing, Hinata shouted: "Sand Village! I Hyuga Hinata is back, come out to greet me!"

The Sand Village did come out to greet me, and there were still a lot of people.

At a glance, there were probably three digits of them, and each of them was as if they were facing a great enemy. Some of them even took out their shuriken, ready for battle.

"Ahem! Excuse me, we are the envoys of Konoha, invited to the Sand Village to attend the inauguration ceremony of the Kazekage!"

Kakashi stepped forward to explain calmly.

Having known Hinata for such a long time, Kakashi has seen all kinds of big scenes. Although it was still a little embarrassing, Kakashi could already be calm and face everything calmly.

No matter how embarrassing it is, as long as you get used to it, it will be fine.

A Sand Ninja stood out from the crowd, with no expression on his stern face: "Please show us your Konoha ID cards."

Hinata turned to look at Kakashi, and Kakashi took out two pieces of paper and handed them to the Sand Ninja.

The Sand Ninja checked it and then said, "Please follow me in, both of you!"

The Sand Village has a special place for receiving foreign guests. The Sand Ninja arranged two rooms for Hinata and Kakashi, and briefly explained the precautions.

"If you two from Konoha have any other needs, you can tell the Chuunin in charge of this place."

Hinata and Kakashi looked at each other: Who should tell them?

Kakashi naturally thought that such shameless things should be handed over to Hinata. After all, Hinata is experienced and can make all kinds of unreasonable requests calmly.

But Hinata always thinks that as a soft girl, she must always consider the face of a girl.

Besides, Hinata is now a super strong person who is famous in the ninja world, and her reputation is greater than Kakashi. How can she make such a shameful request as "I want to have a big meal, a hot spring, and a spa"?

Hinata and Kakashi refused to give in to each other, and their eyes were almost sparking.

"Ahem!"

The Sand Hidden Ninja named Shenyue coughed lightly, and said with a somewhat embarrassed look on his face: "The two people from Konoha have come from afar, and they should not have had dinner yet... How about tasting the specialties of our Wind Country first?"

Hinata and Kakashi relaxed instantly.

You TM should have said it earlier!

Chapter 388 Believe me, you will be bald when you grow up

When seeing Gaara again, Hinata has something that has been in her heart for a long time, and she has to remind everyone.

Gaara has a high hairline, and lacks sleep because of Shukaku, which will cause Gaara to have severe hair loss in the future, and he will inevitably be bald in middle age.

Have you seen Ohnoki?

Ohnoki's hairstyle is Gaara's future hairstyle.

If a girl travels to the world of Naruto and also travels to the Sand Village, please, definitely, don't marry Gaara.

Gaara was still quite handsome when he was a child, but he will probably get more and more ugly as he grows older...

Meeting room of the Sand Village.

Unlike the last meeting to discuss the "war compensation", this meeting was not so tense.

Since Hinata and Kakashi came earlier, the Sand Village also considered it and decided to hold a relevant meeting on the "Joint Chunin Exam" in advance.

This time the Joint Chunin Exam will be held by the Sand Village. As long as Konoha is determined, other small ninja villages only need to notify.

The Joint Chunin Exam is a microcosm of the Ninja World War. Generally speaking, the invited ninja villages will definitely send people to participate. In order to get good grades in the exam, some powerful Genin will even deliberately delay the time for the promotion to Chunin.

A small Chunin Exam, but because it involves the relationship between the task volume of each village, the meaning is no longer simple.

Sitting in the conference room, Hinata also saw the darkness of the big ninja village for the first time.

The five big ninja villages never take the small ninja villages seriously. Even if the small ninja villages send a ninja team with the strength of Chunin to participate in the exam, the big ninja villages are confident that their Genin can defeat the opponent.

But the big ninja villages are different.

If Konoha is willing, the name of Hyuga Neji will even appear in the Chunin exam held by the Sand Village this time.

Hyuga Neji is now short of the task volume, and then he can be promoted to a special Jonin.

If it is more excessive, Konoha can even find Naruto back...

But generally speaking, this kind of Chunin exam has unspoken rules. Since this Chunin exam is held by the Sand Village, Konoha must give some face to the Sand Village.

Especially since the new Kazekage of the Sand Village has just taken office and is in urgent need of establishing a reputation in the ninja world, it is inevitable that the Sand Village wants to get good results in the exam.

However, if the Sand Village wants to achieve good results, it must convince Konoha and use some conditions to let Konoha send some weak people to take the exam.

I just don't know if Konoha informed the Sand Village in advance about the Chunin Exam held.

It shouldn't be!

After all, Konoha is known as the cradle of geniuses, and has always been far superior to other ninja villages in cultivating newcomers, and Hinata's class is the best class in Konoha in more than ten years.

The third generation didn't need to do this at all.

Hinata sat quietly aside, watching Kakashi debate with the heroes... If Kakashi hadn't been there, Hinata really didn't bother to attend such a meeting, it would be a waste of life.

Of course, the Sand Village also has to have face. Some things can't be said openly, they can only be proposed in an obscure and euphemistic way, so that Kakashi can understand it on his own.

Kakashi sometimes pretends to be stupid, sometimes smart, but he didn't do it too much.

Gaara sat opposite, expressionless throughout the whole process. Perhaps in Gaara's view, the Sand Village's approach is very shameful!

However, the Sand Village has not had a Kazekage for a year and a half. The public opinion in the ninja world has been saying that there is no one in the Sand Village who can take on the position of Kazekage, and that the Sand Village is the weakest of the five major ninja villages.

Especially this time, the new Kazekage of the Sand Village is still a 14-year-old boy, which further proves that the Sand Village is already in a period of transition and lacks talent.

For a ninja village that relies on mission rewards to maintain its operation, this is very fatal.

So the Sand Village is now in urgent need of reputation and needs to re-establish a strong image in the ninja world.

And this Chunin Exam is an opportunity. At least the Sand Village wants to prove that there are enough talents in the future of the village, and the Sand Village will continue to be strong.

The candidates for the Chunin Exam were roughly determined, and the meeting ended here.

"Hey! Gaara!"

Walking out of the meeting room, Hinata called Gaara, who had a stern face. The senior executives of the Sand Village looked at each other and left with their own concerns.

"..."

"Long time no see, but I often hear your name recently."

Gaara said kindly: "It's not shameful to lose to you."

Gaara is open-minded, but if you think about it carefully, it's not shameful to lose to Hinata. After all, both Jinchūriki of the Hidden Cloud Village were defeated by Hinata.

"Hey Don't mention the past... Why, you're unhappy!"

Walking to an empty corner, Hinata asked casually: "Actually, I don't like to attend such meetings."

Gaara looked into the distance and said calmly: "When I first learned that I would become the fifth Kazekage, I felt that my efforts for the past year and a half were finally in vain. I was finally recognized by the people in the village, and I The past has finally changed..."

"But after becoming a Kazekage, I truly understood that the difficulties I faced had just begun!"

The power of the Kazekage has fallen away, and Gaara is young and has little knowledge. Even though he is quite prestigious among the younger generation, the power of the village is not in the hands of the younger generation after all.

The power struggle within Sunagakure Village is only one aspect. In the past year and a half, the workload of Sunagakure Village has been further reduced. Although people from the Country of Wind will still entrust tasks to Sunagakure Village, the surrounding small countries have basically given up. Go to Sand Hidden Village.

Without the Kazekage in charge, Sunagakure Village seemed to have lost its faith, and the ninjas in the village were confused and confused about the way forward.

The situation in the ninja world is even more complicated and confusing. The threats from Konoha and the threats from the Akatsuki organization are all things Gaara must face.

Today's Sunagakure Village is a mess, and Gaara has too many things to do.

"Come on!"

Hinata encouraged her without any sincerity.

Gaara looked at Hinata and asked curiously: "You stopped me not just to tell me this, right?"

Hinata rolled her eyes and said helplessly: "You people! Why do everyone think that as long as I go to find you, there must be a purpose?"

"Can't we just reminisce about old times?"

Hinata also didn't understand. When he found Uchiha Itachi, Uchiha Itachi thought that he must have something very important to tell him. Gaara is the same now.

Wouldn't it be nice if everyone had nothing to do and chat? Why does it have to be something serious?

Gaara was stunned for a moment at first, then slowly smiled and said: "This is good..."

"But when I go back this time, I'm afraid I will have to be questioned by others. If I say that you are just looking for me to reminisce about old times, I'm afraid it will be difficult to win people's trust."

Hinata suddenly had an idea and came up with a bad idea: "Then just say that I came to you to discuss the issue of hair style... If you continue not to sleep, you will be bald when you grow up!"

Gaara: This is what you are saying!
