Orochimaru suggested that Chiyu accept the position of leading a team of Genin, and explained to Chiyu why he did so.

Chiyu suddenly became serious after hearing this.

Orochimaru was right.

Even if he found Karin's mother, why would Konoha choose Karin's mother and give up Uzumaki Kushina, who had already been trained.

Chiyu had thought things too simply before, and always thought that if Karin's mother was found, the problem of Uzumaki Kushina would be solved.

Chiyu nodded and said,"I understand, Teacher Orochimaru, I will lead a team of Genin."

Orochimaru said to Chiyu,"I know you will agree after I explain, so I have already informed Teacher Sarutobi in advance. You don't need to lead a team of three, you only need to lead one person, but that person must be your disciple."

"Disciple?..."Qianyu murmured.

As a disciple, Qianyu would have to teach the other party real skills in person.

However, the escape techniques that Orochimaru taught him other than wind escape techniques were also enough for teaching.

Qianyu agreed,"I understand, Master Orochimaru. I will choose a Genin as my disciple."

"Well, I'm glad you understand. The three Genin may become a burden to you, but the disciples may not be. You should make your own careful choice when the time comes. When do you plan to leave?"

"I plan to leave for Konoha now."

""Okay, this is the summary of the current situation in the Land of Hot Springs. Please give it to Mr. Sarutobi for me."

Orochimaru took out a scroll and threw it to Chiba.

Chiba caught the scroll and said goodbye to Orochimaru,"I will give it to the Hokage. Now, Mr. Orochimaru, I am leaving."

"Go ahead."

Qianyu returned to her room, put on her backpack that she had packed early in the morning, and left the camp.

Not long after she left, Qianyu heard a familiar voice.

"Qianyu."

Qianyu turned around and saw that it was the yellow-haired man. Qianyu felt troubled.

The yellow-haired man was naturally Minato Namikaze.

Minato Namikaze came to Qianyu in the blink of an eye.

Qianyu pulled the corner of his mouth:"You really are lingering, don't tell me you are here to see me off."

Minato Namikaze showed a very sunny smile and said:"No, didn't I tell you before? I also want to go back to Konoha, and it looks like you are going back to Konoha today, so let's go together, it's just right to have a companion."

Qianyu made a"tsk", looked at Minato Namikaze and asked:"Minato Namikaze, let me ask you a question, are you a sissy? Do you need a companion to go back to Konoha?"

Minato Namikaze's expression froze, and he said helplessly:"It's really hard to hear a good word from you."

Chiyu ignored Minato Namikaze and walked forward on his own.

Minato Namikaze didn't care either, and followed Chiyu towards Konoha.

On the rest of the way, the two of them didn't say a word and just took care of themselves.

Four days later.

Because Chiyu's pace was very fast, it only took another day to reach Konoha.

Chiyu wanted to see Uzumaki Kushina as soon as possible, so he planned to travel overnight and return to Konoha early.

Just when Chiyu was about to travel in the night, Minato Namikaze suddenly asked:"Chiyu, if I chose to help Kushina at that time, would we become companions?"

Chiyu looked at Minato Namikaze in confusion.

Minato Namikaze looked at Chiyu with a flickering look in his eyes, and continued:"It seems that the only conflict between you and me was that time. I didn't know that Kushina was so important to you. In fact, I regretted it at that time. If I could stop them from bullying Kushina, maybe we would be good friends."

Qianyu looked at Minato Namikaze calmly, and suddenly sneered:"No, Minato Namikaze, even if that incident had not happened, we would not become friends, because we are two different types of people, and I would rather you not help Kushina."

Minato Namikaze frowned and said,"Why? Teacher Jiraiya and Lord Orochimaru are also two people with completely opposite personalities. They can also become friends who back each other. Why can't we?"

Qianyu shook his head and said,"It's really idealistic. The two of us are fundamentally different from Lord Jiraiya and Teacher Orochimaru, because I hate you from the bottom of my heart."

Minato Namikaze asked in confusion:"Why do you hate me? There must be a reason to hate me, right?"

"What if I told you? So, don't force things that can't be forced. We just happen to live in the same village, that's all."

Qianyu put on his backpack and walked forward.

Namikaze Minato stood there, watching Qianyu's back, unable to understand.

After a long time, Namikaze Minato came back to his senses and sighed.

"Jiraiya-sensei, I really can't seem to become friends with Chiba"...

Because Chiyu traveled all night, Chiyu arrived at Konoha at noon the next day.

Chiyu did not go to look for Uzumaki Kushina immediately, but went to the Hokage Building, gave the scroll given to him by Orochimaru to Sarutobi Hiruzen first, and took the appointment letter to the Land of Grass.

Chiyu came to the office of the Hokage Building and knocked on the door.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice came:"Come in." Chiyu opened the door and went in, and was surprised to find that in addition to Sarutobi Hiruzen, there was a man about the same age as Sarutobi Hiruzen in the office.

A head of brown hair, neat sideburns, two slender eyes, cunning and deep eyes, a fork-shaped scar on the chin, a slightly gloomy face, deep wrinkles, giving people a feeling of insidiousness and scheming.

Although it was the first time to see him, Chiyu recognized the man in front of him at once.

Hokage assistant, leader of the root, Shimura Danzo.

Chiyu greeted the two respectfully,"Hokage-sama, Danzo-sama."

When Sarutobi Hiruzen saw Chiyu, his originally serious expression suddenly became amiable:"It's Chiyu, I haven't seen you for a while, and you seem to have grown a lot. I have always paid attention to you. You were very active in the war with the Cloud Ninja in the Land of Hot Springs, and completed many difficult tasks."

Chiyu habitually flattered him:"Thanks to the teaching of Orochimaru and the trust of Hokage-sama, I can grow to the current level."

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded with satisfaction.

I didn't expect that Chiyu, who was disliked by everyone back then, has grown to this point and has become a very reliable Konoha ninja.

Although the current situation of Konoha is not good, outstanding ninjas such as Chiyu, Namikaze Minato, and the new generation of Ino-Shika-cho have gradually shown their talents.

With these new seedlings, Sarutobi Hiruzen is more and more confident about the upcoming war.
