Chapter 441 Naruto's Return
If Uchiha Qiushan remembered correctly, Gekko Hayate was killed one night during the Chunin Exam.
Although Uchiha Qiushan didn't like this guy very much, he didn't want him to die in vain.
However, Uchiha Qiushan was not sure whether he could avoid death if he was disqualified from presiding over the exam.
After hearing what Qiu Shanjun said, Tsunade also recalled it, nodded thoughtfully and said:
"Jifeng, that guy does have some problems with his body. I have examined him myself, but he is simply born with a deficiency and cannot be cured at all."
Having said that, Tsunade glanced at Qiu Shanjun next to her and continued:
"Since Qiu Shanjun has spoken, let Ji Feng rest for a while. Xi Yan will be back soon, so let her take Ji Feng's place."
Mao Yue Xi Yan's current swordsmanship is many times stronger than Moonlight Gale. Her strength is more than enough to crush Moonlight Gale several times and replace him.
At this moment, Tsunade seemed to remember something, and looked at Uchiha Qiushan with a half-smile, until he felt a little guilty, then she smiled and said:
"Mr. Qiu Shan, today the Mizukage has moved into the residence of our Senju clan, so I won't go back to the space. Don't think about coming to my place at night.
The room I asked Shizune to arrange for Mei Terumi is right next to mine, so if any thief breaks in at night, I will catch him in the act."
Hearing Tsunade's words, Uchiha Qiushan looked at her with a dark face. Only then did he understand why Sister Tsunade invited Mei Terumi to live in her house.
It turned out that Mei Terumi was placed under her nose to prevent them from having a secret meeting at night.
As if she had noticed Qiu Shanjun's gaze, Tsunade put her hand down to her lower abdomen and gently stroked it, saying softly:
"Anyway, that's what I am doing now. The main thing is that as long as you are still in Konoha Village, I won't allow you to be together."
Hearing what Sister Tsunade said, Uchiha Qiushan also shook his head with some amusement and said with a smile:
"Sister Tsunade, you look down on me too much. Even if I am a scumbag, I will never meet Mei Terumi in private in Konoha Village."
However, Tsunade was not listening to Qiu Shanjun's words. After a delicate snort, she waved to Shizune next to her and said:
"Let's go, Shizune. After all, she is the Mizukage of the Hidden Mist Village. We can't neglect her. Let's go back and keep her company."
After hearing what Lady Tsunade said, Shizune did not dare to refute. After saying hello to Qiu Shanjun next to her, she accompanied Tsunade towards the center of Konoha Village.
Looking at Sister Tsunade's back, Uchiha Qiushan shook his head with amusement. Just when he was about to leave, he seemed to feel something. His eyebrows raised slightly, and the whole person disappeared on the spot.
……
"Wow, Konoha Village, I, Uzumaki Naruto, am back!!"
Looking at the gate of Konoha Village so close, Naruto couldn't help but shout.
Speaking of which, this is the first time that Naruto and his companions have been away from Konoha Village for such a long time.
Moreover, during such a long period of time, what they experienced can only be described as colorful and full of ups and downs.
Therefore, when he saw the place where he was born and grew up, Uzumaki Naruto felt extremely familiar and couldn't help cheering.
Seeing Naruto's exaggerated cheer, Sasuke on the side raised his lips slightly and said expressionlessly:
"idiot."
On the other side, Shikamaru complained:
"Naruto is surprisingly spirited, isn't he, Choji?"
At this time, Dingci temporarily put down the potato chips in his hand, nodded in agreement and said:
"Shikamaru is right, Naruto is indeed very energetic and makes others happy with him."
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared silently beside Shikamaru, shocking everyone around him.
"Teacher Qiu Shan!"
"Uncle Qiu Shan!"
"Master Qiu Shan!"
Uchiha Qiushan nodded in response to everyone's greetings, and then glanced at the mental state of Naruto, Shikamaru and others.
Although they looked a little tired at this moment, their spirits were still good, and even their temperaments were more stable than before. They nodded and said:
"Yes, it seems that you have grown a lot through this mission, and it is worthy of this mission."
Hearing Uchiha Qiushan's words, Naruto and the others' eyes suddenly lit up, especially Naruto, who touched the back of his head a little embarrassedly and grinned:
"Really, Uncle Qiu Shan, have I really grown up?"
Seeing Naruto's happy expression, Sasuke beside him couldn't stand it anymore, and punched him on the head, saying speechlessly:
"Idiot, don't make that expression after the teacher just praised you. You look really childish like this and you haven't made any progress at all."
After hearing what Sasuke said, Naruto was also very unconvinced and said:
"Uncle Qiu Shan said that I have made progress, so what if I am happy for a while..."
Looking at the quarreling Naruto and Sasuke, Kakashi beside him shook his head helplessly, and walked directly to Uchiha Qiushan, and said very respectfully:
"Master Qiushan, after you left, the mission was completed very smoothly. Even the Wave Country has become a subsidiary force of our Konoha Village. Although there are not many valuable things there, it can be regarded as a small force. If the Fifth Hokage knew about this, he would probably be happier."
Hearing what Kakashi said, Uchiha Qiushan just nodded calmly and continued:
"Kakashi, after delivering this mission, don't accept any more missions."
Hearing Qiu Shanjun's words, Kakashi paused for a moment, frowned, and asked:
"Master Qiu Shan, what happened?"
Seeing Kakashi's expression, Uchiha Qiushan knew that he had misunderstood, so he smiled and shook his head and said:
"Nothing has happened, but the day of the Chunin Exam is approaching, and even the Mizukage of the Hidden Mist Village and the Kazekage of the Hidden Sand Village have come to our Konoha Village."
At this point, Uchiha Qiushan gestured to Naruto and Sasuke next to him, and then said:
"I feel that with Naruto and Sasuke's strength, it would be a shame if they didn't participate in this Chunin Exam, so I suggest you sign them up."
At this point, Uchiha Qiushan patted Kakashi on the shoulder and continued:
"Of course, what I said are just suggestions. It depends on your own ideas on how to do it."
Just as Kakashi was about to say something, Sasuke, who heard what Uchiha Qiushan said, suddenly lit up his eyes and shouted:
"Teacher Kakashi, I want to sign up for this Chunin Exam!"
