This mission is said to be an escort, but Kaito feels that it is more like an escort.
Mitokado Homura was followed by the flying ninjas at all times and had a gloomy face the whole time.
Kaito heard from the elder Genji that this old guy actually had the strength of a Kage. However, whether in the original work or in his performance in the past two days, Kaito did not see it at all.
‘Perhaps he is afraid of being too flamboyant and irritating us youngsters? Is this the restraint of the strong?’
Kaito secretly complained about this in his heart.
As for the escort troops.
All members of the Second and Third Squadrons of the Flying Unit were dispatched, and they also brought along all the reserve members in the base who were proficient in hang gliding. They filled the No. 3 ship to the brim, and the ship's armory was almost filled to capacity with equipment.
As for the 'honorable' guests from Konohagakure, it would be impossible to allow them to travel on such a crowded aircraft carrier, as that would be disrespectful.
The Kirigakure Village specially allocated another frigate to serve as the vehicle for the Konohagakure ninjas.
The result was that an aircraft carrier was sailing in the middle of the sea, with the frigate that originally belonged to the third ship on the left side responsible for guarding it, and another frigate carrying the Konohagakure ninjas on the right side.
From a distance, it is hard to tell who is protecting whom.
However, Kaito did not follow the No. 3 ship.
Although Kaito's current position in the Flying Unit Department is basically equivalent to that of the deputy leader, it was originally the vehicle of the Kaguya Rosso team, so Kaito simply let him take command.
He brought a few ordinary Flying Unit members with him and accompanied the Konohagakure envoys on the frigate.
Looking at Mitokado Homura, who was now dressed completely differently from the previous meeting, fully armed, wearing a black suit, with two huge scrolls on his back and a small scroll hanging around his neck, he was standing alone on the edge of the deck.
Kaito also had some ideas in mind and walked forward to start a conversation.
"Why are you dressed like this, Elder Mitokado? Are you afraid that we can't protect you well?"
Kaito relied on his youth and deliberately put emphasis on the word "old man" when speaking.
After hearing this, Mitokado Homura's face became even uglier. He quickly turned around and stared at Kaito.
‘This old man had this murderous look on his face when we first met. Does he have such a big hatred for me?’
Kaito couldn't help scratching his head. Although he led the team to bomb Konoha's eastern front for five or six months in a row, he was just following orders on the battlefield.
If anyone is to blame, it should be the village leaders, or at the very least, leader Haruame's fault.
‘Why does this old guy hate me so much?’
‘Does Mitokado Homura have such deep feelings for Konoha?’
Just looking at the old man's eyes again, Kaito suddenly reacted.
‘By the way, it seems that Akimichi Tofu, who I killed, was a teammate of this guy. The stone statue was supposed to be given to the Third Mizukage, but it was never given away. I heard that it is still gathering dust in the storage room of the Mizukage building. I wonder if it was used as a bargaining chip in this negotiation?’
After roughly guessing the reason why Mitokado Homura hated him, Kaito became even more excited.
"I heard that Konoha's Yellow Flash caused a big disturbance in the Sunagakure Village front camp a while ago, forcing the Sunagakure Village to negotiate. Did Minato-senpai's injury heal so quickly?"
When mentioning Namikaze Minato, Mitokado Homura's expression was still a little ugly, but he still spoke sarcastically.
"We have Tsunade in Konohagakure Village. You don't really think such a minor injury can have any impact on Minato, do you?"
‘As expected, Rasa is not very good! But,’Kaito put on a harmless smile and continued.
"Tsunade-senpai, she is a very powerful medical ninja, but it seems that Tsunade-senpai has never shown up to fight in this war? Is there a conflict with the village?"
"What nonsense!"
Mitokado Homura's face turned pale instantly and he directly refuted.
‘It seems that her hemophobia has not yet been cured, but she probably won't leave Konohagakure Village for the time being. But that's normal. With Tsunade's personality, she probably won't leave Konohagakure Village until the Ninja War is over.’
Kaito smiled and continued to ask with a curious look on his face.
"Since Tsunade-senpai is fine, then Elder Danzo, who was injured by the Raikage before, must have recovered from his injuries, right?"
This was also the news received by the Kirigakure Village. At the beginning, Danzo and Orochimaru intercepted the retreating Kumogakure troops together, but they were seriously injured by the Third Raikage who arrived.
After the Kirigakure withdrew its frontline forces, Orochimaru went directly to the northern battlefield of the Land of Fire to fight against the Iwagakure and Kumogakure, but Danzo never appeared on the front battlefield again.
Of course, this may also be because Danzo, as the leader of the Konohagakure Village Root, is relatively low-key.
This time, Mitokado Homura ignored Kaito's temptation and just walked away.
However, seeing his face which was almost as dark as the bottom of a pot, Kaito estimated that it was possible that Danzo would not be able to appear on the battlefield for a short time.
‘But it will be better if this old fellow Danzo is still alive and can continue to cause trouble for Konoha.’
Seeing that Mitokado Homura was about to leave, Kaito hurriedly followed him, and at the same time used some tricks in the "calling" and asked in a casual tone.
"Konoha is in such a difficult situation during this war. Won't the Daimyo put too much pressure on the Hokage?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Mitokado Homura, who was about to leave, suddenly stopped and turned around.
He looked at Kaito calmly and spoke lightly.
"Boy, this is what you really want to ask, right? You want to get information from me with just a few sound genjutsu? How naive!"
Kaito was also stunned for a moment when he saw Mitokado Homura suddenly become calm.
‘Well, old man, your expressions and words are quite cool. But the previous questions were all the ones I wanted to ask. I know everything I should know. Why are you pretending to be stupid?’
However, Kaito was still very cooperative, pretending to be a little flustered as if he was seen through.
Mitokado Homura snorted coldly and strode into the cabin with a disdainful expression.
‘This old man is really interesting. Konoha provided him with an external brain from the Nara clan, but he insisted on wandering around by himself and ended up getting caught.’
But Kaito changed his mind.
‘Is it possible that this old man is playing me from the beginning?’
But if this continues, no information will be trustworthy, so Kaito simply stops worrying about it.
He planned to record all the conversations between himself and Mitokado Homura, as well as the old man's demeanor and expressions, and send them back to the village, letting the Third Mizukage and Elder Genji analyze them.
As soon as Kaito finished writing the information scroll, he summoned a ninja gull and sent it away.
A Flying Unit member immediately ran over and whispered a reminder.
"Captain Mirukawa, we're almost at the Land of Fire border."
Kaito raised his head slightly, a smile appearing on his face.
"Really? Send someone to notify Konohagakure's guests to get on deck and prepare to dock. Then have Captain Kaguya call all members of the Flying Unit to take off and stand guard near the ship to ensure the safety of the area."
After thinking about it, and fearing that he might not understand, Kaito spoke again to emphasize it.
"Remember, everyone takes off!"
"Clear!"
