In the end, Morishita got what he wished.

However, he did not commit suicide but was killed by “Root”. He died at his home with his heart pierced by Chidori.

According to Anbu’s inspection, it should belong to the Root Shinobi that disguised himself as an Iwagakure Shinobi, as he could use Thunder-Release.

Another evidence was the letter “Root” near Morishita’s corpse. Anbu Shinobi thought that it was Morishita’s dying message.

The Kage was furious and directly mobilized all the Shinobis in the village to search Kusagakure thoroughly.

Unfortunately, Nagasawa and the others had long since returned to Konoha with the mission objective.

Thinking about all this, Nagasawa could not help but sigh: “Sure enough, sometimes the dead are more useful than the living. Kusagakure’s Kage is probably going to explode in anger.”

However, it was not completely useless for him to keep Morishita. Then again, things wouldn’t be as easy for him.

Nagasawa estimated that Danzo should be annoyed, and Root would definitely take a hit.

Even if Kusagakure did not personally take action, they could just put a bounty on the underground or directly hire a mercenary.

“Squad Leader Nagasawa, you seem so happy. What makes you so happy? Tell me, tell me! I wanna be happy too.” Midori Inuzuka said excitedly.

Nagasawa smiled and said casually, “Of course, I’ve thought of the training menu for you guys. I’ll whip you to shape from morning to evening.”

“What kind of training menu is that? Why do I have to suffer for a whole day?” Midori Inuzuka lost her motivation.

“That’s why I laughed. I can’t help but laugh when I imagine your swollen faces.” Nagasawa laughed as he spoke.

“Squad Leader, you really are a strong meanie.” Midori Inuzuka said sincerely.

“You flatter me. However, I suggest that you change one of those words. Otherwise, your face might be more swollen than others.” Nagasawa said with a smile.

Midori Inuzuka nodded and thought for a moment. “Squad Leader, you really are a big meanie.”

Nagasawa was stunned. Instead of changing the meanie, this girl changed the strong.

He smacked Midori Inuzuka’s head lightly, messing up all the hair on her head.

“Is that too much for you? Don’t you want to learn Haki? The training menu I set up will allow you guys to learn the basics of Haki.”

Thinking of Nagasawa’s steel-like posture, Midori Inuzuka’s eyes flashed with little stars. She wanted to be like that, too.

“Then I’ll practice. Midori likes training the most. Midori can take a beating.” Midori Inuzuka’s attitude immediately changed.

Nagasawa smiled and waved his finger. “You said you don’t wanna earlier, right? Then just watch as Kakashi and Ensui train.”

“Sigh, what a pity. Color of Arms Haki will greatly boost your Taijutsu.” Nagasawa deliberately tempted Midori Inuzuka.

“Ah, come on…” Midori Inuzuka was on the verge of crying.

“Nagasawa-san is lying. He definitely won’t abandon you.” Hanabira smiled and caressed Midori Inuzuka’s head, thinking that Midori was really cute, but she sure was a little chatty.

“Tsk, as expected of a Uzumaki Clan.” Nagasawa touched his chin and said.

Using their perception ability, they could see chakra circulation to determine whether the person was lying.

“Really?” Midori Inuzuka looked at Nagasawa with surprise.

Nagasawa smiled and said, “It depends on you. If you’re doing that again, there will really be no more chance.”

Midori Inuzuka fell into deep thought. Then, she revealed a determined expression. She took out a roll of bandages from her Shinobi backpack and wrapped it around her head. Then, she sealed her mouth.

For the sake of a cool Secret Technique, Midori Inuzuka didn’t mind restraining herself!

Nagasawa was speechless. Was she aware that she was chatty, or was she not sure she could hold back her own mouth?

“Ka…”

“What’s the matter?” Kakashi quickly spoke up,

He did not give Hanabira the chance to spell out his full name.

Along the way, in order to prevent Hanabira from calling his real name, Kakashi was completely focused on Hanabira to the point that he used Sharingan.

Whenever Hanabira wanted to speak, Kakashi would directly interrupt her, not giving her the chance to say his name.

Hanabira blushed slightly and asked, “Why are you staring at me all the time?”

Kakashi: …

“Kakashi is your real name, right?” Hanabira asked.

The four of them called each other as usual, so Hanabira soon found out that Nagasawa and the others called him Kakashi.

Kakashi nodded as there was nothing to hide.

Even if Nagasawa and the others called him by his code name, he would still be exposed when they returned to Konoha. In Konoha, he was relatively famous.

“Kakashi, what a good name, Shinobi-sama!” She smiled.

“Did Kakashi use a special alias in Kusagakure?” Midori Inuzuka took off the bandage before anyone realized it and asked curiously.

Kakashi said calmly, “No, just ordinary names, like Watanabe Tanaka or something.”

“Really?” Midori Inuzuka looked at Kakashi suspiciously. Her intuition told her that there was something going on here.

“Yes,” Hanabira said with a smile.

“Tsk, boring.” Midori Inuzuka lost interest. She thought she could find something interesting.

He couldn’t tease Kakashi with Nagasawa around.

Kakashi breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Hanabira with grateful eyes.

At the same time, he sighed in his heart: ” Squad Leader Nagasawa is right. Women are born with acting skills. I didn’t expect that Hanabira would be so good at lying.”

If he didn’t know what was going on, he would have been deceived by Hanabira’s smile.

Soon after, a majestic gate appeared in their eyes. It was the gate of the strongest Shinobi Village in the Shinobi World, the gate of Konohagakure. They had finally returned safely to Konoha.

Looking at the huge gate and the crowds coming and going, Hanabira was in a trance as it was much bigger and grander than Kusagakure. The gate alone reflected that Konoha was more prosperous than Kusagakure.

“Is this Konoha?” Hanabira looked inside the giant gate, which was where she might live in the future.

“Yes, this is Konoha!” Nagasawa said lightly and then turned to look at Hanabira: “Welcome to Konohagakure, this place is peaceful and prosperous. From now on, you are a resident of Konoha, and you will start your new life here.”

Hanabira recalled her suffering in Kusagakure, the hardships of wandering around in the war, and Kakashi’s help. She smiled sincerely: “Thank god.”
