Chapter 234 Quietly
Commercial street.
Kakashi was in a daze.
The sounds of voices nearby pulled him back to reality.
Kakashi saw Chiyo standing in front of a goldfish scooping stall with three little girls.
He didn't recognize Bai; he simply categorized the three of them as little girls based on their dresses.
"...Do you like it? If you do, then play."
Seeing that the three of them were somewhat interested, Qianyao paid the owner directly so they could catch goldfish and play with them.
Karin spotted a plump goldfish and chased after it with a paper net, scooping it up.
Just as the goldfish went up, the paper net tore with a "poof".
The goldfish fell back into the water.
"Ah! Master, it has fallen!"
Qianyao, watching from the side, couldn't help but laugh: "You won't get it this way."
Karin huffed, "Master, I want to play more!"
Although the stall owner didn't recognize Qianyao, he did recognize the Uchiha clan uniform.
At this point, he still asked in a supportive manner, "Sir, would you like some paper netting?"
Qianyao pulled out money from his pocket again: "Each of you has three paper nets."
It's better to only try this kind of game briefly; if you spend a lot of money on it, you lose the game's appeal.
Karin got two more paper nets, while Bai and Ying each had three.
Seeing that Bai Heying hadn't made a move and was still watching how others tried to retrieve the goods, she immediately became anxious:
"No, Master, the previous ones don't count. I need another paper net."
Qianyao pointed at Bai and Ying: "Three for each person, no cheating."
"Humph!"
Seeing that her coquettishness wasn't working, Karin pouted but didn't say anything.
She saw that Ying and Bai had both squatted down to scoop up goldfish.
They rushed over to see how well they had managed to retrieve the fish.
When Ying scoops up goldfish, her movements are very gentle, both when she puts them in the water and when she takes them out. She also specifically picks the smaller ones.
The three paper nets tore, and fourteen small goldfish were caught.
Bai selected some very beautiful goldfish. Although he only caught four, Bai's expression clearly showed that he was very satisfied.
Having learned from the experience, Karin also squatted down to scoop up goldfish.
Kakashi first carefully observed whether there were any Anbu members nearby, then approached Chiyo's side:
"Lord Qian Yao."
Qianyao raised one hand to indicate that he should wait a moment.
He didn't say a word, nor did he turn around, nor did he even look back.
I just watched as Karin folded the two paper nets together, aimed at the fattest goldfish, and scooped it up.
Although she only caught this one, she clearly achieved her goal.
"Hehehe! Master, I got it!"
Chiyo patted Karin's hair: "Looks like you're pretty smart."
Karin, one hand on her hip, said, "I had my eye on this fat guy before, so I have to fish him out."
"Okay, let the boss wrap it up."
The three handed the bowl to the owner, who then took out a bag, put water and fish in it, tied it up, and handed it back to them, also giving them some fish food as a bonus.
These goldfish were bred by the owner himself and aren't very valuable. The owner had already calculated how long the paper net would last before it broke.
No matter how much profit is made, the boss will never lose money.
Everyone just wants to have fun.
Seeing the three children happily running to get the goldfish, Chiyo turned to Kakashi and asked:
"what's up?"
Kakashi hesitated for a moment, then said, "There are some things I need your help with, Lord Senyo."
Qianyao clenched his hands into a seal in the air, spreading out a barrier.
The area wasn't large, but it enveloped both Chiyo and Kakashi.
Kakashi felt a sudden silence around him, and he could no longer hear any sounds from the outside world.
"Speak up, the people outside can't hear you."
Kakashi was somewhat surprised that Chiyo was also proficient in sealing barrier techniques.
However, he directly brought up the matter of Shirakumo Saeko.
Qianyao still found it quite normal for a third-generation member to do such a thing.
After all, these are all basic operations.
"I can't get involved in Konoha's hospitals, but you can go to Tsunade about this matter."
Kakashi wasn't familiar with Tsunade and didn't know her very well, so he asked Chiyo first when he met her.
"Is Lady Tsunade suitable?"
Qianyao nodded and said, "You can trust Tsunade's character. It just so happens that she already has the power in the hospital."
"She's just too lazy to manage it for now."
"Go find her and tell her that you suspect someone in Konoha is still conducting human experiments."
"If you are not discovered, you can continue working for the Third Hokage."
"If you can't stay out of this, then go and join Tsunade. The Third Hokage doesn't have many tricks up her sleeve."
After hearing this, Kakashi bowed to Chiyo and said, "Thank you, Lord Chiyo."
Qianyao waved his hand, dispelling the barrier, and instantly the sounds from the outside world reached Kakashi's ears again.
"Master, Master...I want to eat this!"
Karin pointed to a takoyaki stall and waved to Chiyo.
Chiyo affectionately stroked Karin's hair:
"it is good."
……
Chiyo didn't pay any attention to what was going on with Kakashi.
If Kakashi couldn't even handle this simple matter, he wouldn't have been able to become the Sixth Hokage in the original timeline.
However, Hinata Sota still made a special trip to the school to find Chiyo.
The subsequent developments were reported.
After Kakashi went to find Tsunade, the righteous Tsunade smashed down the hospital wall that very night.
They rescued all the people who were imprisoned there.
Most of these people are family members of members of the Dark Organization or the Root Organization.
However, the Third Hokage simply passed the buck and pushed the matter onto Koharu Utatane.
After all, the guards there were originally Koharu Utatane's men.
Koharu Utatane lied, claiming that the Root Department was built to counterbalance Danzo.
Moreover, they had food and drink there, so it wasn't really imprisonment.
Although the matter was eventually dropped, Tsunade decided to take control of the hospital herself.
……
On the other hand...
After causing a ruckus at the port of the Land of Lightning with Chiyo's clone, the Water Shadow of the Land of Water did not rush back.
Instead, they began to target ships from the Land of Lightning.
Although the Hidden Cloud Village organized several counter-encirclement campaigns, the Three-Tailed Isobu was still very mobile at sea.
At least the Eight-Tailed Gyūki could not possibly stop two tailed beasts at once.
In the past, merchants from the Land of Water had to be very careful when doing business.
They were helpless against the Land of Lightning's extortion and demands.
Sometimes, even taking the risk of a sea voyage doesn't yield much profit.
Now they have the clones of the Mizukage and Chiyo, and two Yaguras with the backing of them.
The maritime trade of the Water Kingdom gradually improved.
After failing to encircle and annihilate the Mizukage twice in a row, the Hidden Cloud Village began attacking merchant ships from the Land of Water.
With both sides suffering significant losses, peace talks commenced.
Faced with the pressure from Yagura Karatachi and his mirror clone, the Land of Lightning was forced to retract its tentacles.
The two sides' jinchūriki also agreed to cease attacking caravans.
The ships from the Land of Water, protected by the Water Shadow and the clones of Chiyo, traveled along the route to a more distant place.
They strive to earn money for the Land of Water and restore the strength of the Land of Water and the Hidden Mist Village.
After obtaining the position of advisor elder, the Uchiha clan unexpectedly went into hiding.
After handing over several important tasks to Orochimaru, they began to wait for the right opportunity.
Winter goes and spring comes, year after year.
More than two years have passed quietly.
Chiyo turned 20, and Naruto and the others turned 10.
