But no matter how surprised he was, how could Kakashi not notice the strange atmosphere between Naruto and Nana?

But now is the time to carry out the mission. My children are grown up now and I don’t need to worry about everything anymore.

Especially since July is involved in this matter.

"Okay, everyone is here. Yamato and Sai are waiting for us out front."

"Let's go."

Following Kakashi's order, everyone rushed out like an arrow.

He left Konoha and sped away into the distance.

There is still some time before the mission of the Heaven and Earth Bridge, although we need to explore the terrain in advance.

But all in all, there is enough time.

There is no need for everyone to rush on their journey as anxiously as last time.

Along the way, Naruto never dared to look at July who was running in front of him.

I was afraid of having an awkward eye contact with her.

He still hadn't digested what July said last night.

Now I don’t know how to face July.

So he avoided talking if he could. He adjusted his speed and landed next to Shikamaru.

Shikamaru didn't know what to say about Naruto's performance at this time.

His main problem was that it was too troublesome. Just traveling was tiring enough.

Besides, this is a matter between the two of them, and it is not appropriate for Shikamaru to interfere.

Soon, they reunited with Yamato and Sai.

The few of them continued to rush towards the Kingdom of Wind without stopping.

On the way, Yamato and Sai soon discovered that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the team.

He quietly asked Kakashi what was going on.

But Kakashi was completely confused, so he told Yamato not to worry about it.

Several people fell into silence again.

After a long journey of two days and one night, they arrived safely at the Sand Village.

Gaara even personally brought Chiyo, Ebizo, Maki and others out of the village to welcome them.

July immediately spotted Scorpion, who looked unhappy, in their team.

I don’t know if it’s because of Konoha’s arrival or because he just feels uncomfortable living in this village.

"Hey, Scorpion, what's going on? Someone in the village owes you money?"

"Do you want me to help you collect the debt?"

No matter who Scorpio's unhappy attitude is directed at, July will still go up and tease him.

Scorpion snorted coldly and looked up at July's figure.

With Scorpion's height, that was the only way he could do.

Who made us tall in July?

"You're a ninja from Konoha, don't come up and talk to me casually."

"We're not familiar with each other!"

Scorpio has a cherubic look on his face, and even when he is angry and arrogant, he still gives you a cute feeling.

"Hey, Scorpion, don't say that."

"We can be said to have known each other for a long time, and you still have the seal I put on you."

"Don't you want to show off on this?"

"Maybe I'm happy with your performance this time, so I won't pursue your past any more."

"And maybe I can help you remove the seal."

July's words immediately caught Chiyo's attention.

She never forgot what July said before, and Scorpio's matter was always a concern in her heart.

Now hearing July say this, he didn't even bother with the most basic hospitality etiquette.

He ran straight to July and looked at her expectantly.

"July, is what you just said true?"

July looked at the old man in front of him with a frown on his face. How could he take it seriously?

She just looked at Scorpion's unhappy expression and wanted to tease him.

I didn't expect Chiyo to become like this. I'd better ask you to return to the rebellious look you had when we first met.

After seeing this, I can’t tell whether July’s social phobia has improved or not.

Or did he completely treat these people from Sunagakure as acquaintances.

Kakashi quickly asked Yamato to help Nanyue out.

Chiyo also realized that she was a little too rash.

He quickly called everyone back into the village.

Gaara was the first to notice that something was wrong with Naruto and walked over to his side.

"Naruto, what's wrong with you? You look a little embarrassed."

"Don't worry, Sunagakure will always be Konoha's solid ally."

“Just treat this place as your home.”

"We didn't have time last time, so we must have a good get-together this time."

July, who was walking behind the team, looked at Gaara.

I sighed in my heart, how things and people have changed.

It seems that the people of Sand Village have indeed changed Gaara.

The cold-faced Shura from before has now become so talkative.

Naruto forced a smile at Gaara.

"Okay, we did say goodbye too hastily last time."

"This time you have to take me around the Sand Village."

Naruto's abnormality made Gaara not bother him any further.

As a friend, it's better not to ask too many questions.

A few people came to the hotel, put their luggage away and temporarily dispersed.

Naruto Kakashi followed Gaara to the Kazekage Building.

July stayed at the hotel to rest while Yamato, Sai and Sakura went out shopping.

As for our Shikamaru, he has great luck in love.

It seems that Shikamaru had already won the heart of Miss Temari during the previous Chunin Exam.

Look at Shikamaru, he is the real winner in life.

Lost the game but won love. Look at these single guys in Konoha.

Oh, forget it, let’s not bring up the past.

Just after checking in, Temari dragged Shikamaru off somewhere for some romance.

But thinking about Shikamaru's personality, Nanayuki could only pray in her heart.

I hope this romantic insulator doesn't perform too badly.

Don't talk about troubles all the time.

In the evening, July, who was hungry, went out to find something to eat.

I happened to run into Kakashi who had just returned from the Kazekage Building.

The two of them tacitly agreed not to say a word.

Kakashi followed July's footsteps and came to a barbecue restaurant that seemed to be crowded.

The two of them sat down one after another, and July ordered a lot of delicious food.

When the boss saw Kakashi’s forehead protector, he enthusiastically gave him several more plates of meat.

The dishes were served quickly, and July grilled the meat while waiting for Kakashi to speak.

Kakashi was also hungry at this time, so he picked out some of his favorite foods and put them in the baking tray.

Then he spoke.

"July, this mission may have some twists and turns."

"I went to communicate with their top executives today, and I could sense the resentment those old guys have towards Gaara and his people."

"Elder Chiyo said they thought about cleaning out these high-ranking officials after we left."

"However, they suddenly received a letter from the Daimyo of the Wind Country."

"As the backing of those high-ranking officials, the Daimyo threatened Gaara and his men not to make things difficult for him."

"So, Gaara and Chiyo have decided to only bring their trusted aides this time."

"Our combat capability may be greatly reduced. Let's be on guard tonight."

"There's a good chance those higher-ups will take action against us tonight."

July listened to Kakashi's story without stopping.

All the meat on the grill, including the one Kakashi had just grilled, went into July's stomach.

"The Daimyo of the Wind Country? It's okay, Kakashi-sensei."

"You can guess this with a little thought. Don't forget, didn't the Daimyo of the Land of Fire threaten Lady Tsunade?"

"These are their usual habits."

"When we get back tonight, I'll prepare a surprise outside the hotel."

"It would be fine if they didn't come, but if they really have any ill intentions towards us."

"Then these surprise tactics just happened to work. It's time to let them know that there are some people they can't afford to offend."

"After so many years of living a comfortable life, they can't tell the difference between the big and small kings."

July had an innocent expression on her face and said the cruelest words.

With Nana's assurance, Kakashi put his worries aside.

Let’s join in the battle for food with July.

Just as they were eating happily, a figure came in from outside.

He walked straight towards July and the others.

July looked at this person with great interest...
