Senju Station.
It's no longer as lively as it used to be. Not only are there two-thirds fewer people, but the atmosphere inside the base is also extremely bleak.
It will probably take a very long time for the surviving members of the Senju tribe to get out of this atmosphere.
"Qianye, I'm back."
When Chidao Chiba stepped into the base, a rare member of the Senju tribe greeted him.
Chishima Chiba was a little surprised by this, but she was more happy in her heart.
He quickly bowed and greeted, "Hello, Uncle Minyou."
Senju Toshiu Chishima Chiba naturally knew him. Before the First World War, he was responsible for guarding the gate of the Senju base and often targeted Chishima Chiba.
But now that the war is over, he naturally returned to his previous position, and his attitude towards Chishima Chiba has also changed greatly.
However, the other Senju tribe member who accompanied him was nowhere to be seen, and Senju Minyou was also missing his right arm.
But the other party still stood straight, and his aura was very different from before. Qiandao Qianye could feel that it was the murderous aura that could not be restrained but still overflowed after being restrained.
Senju Minyou glanced at Chishima Chiba who looked respectful, and was very satisfied, "Well, go in, Mito-sama has been waiting for you for a long time."
As soon as he finished speaking, Senju Minyou made way and let Chidao Chiba enter.
"Qianye, come to grandma's room."
Just as he entered the door, Chishima Chiba heard Uzumaki Mito's greeting. He looked in the direction of the voice and happened to meet Uzumaki Mito's stern eyes.
Without waiting for Chishima Chiba to say anything, Uzumaki Mito turned and went into the room without even closing the door.
Chidao Chiba knew that he had to give it a try today, so he gritted his teeth and walked over quickly.
Just as he stepped over the threshold and before he could close the door, Uzumaki Mito's angry voice came at him.
"Chiba! What on earth are you planning to do?!"
"Grandma." Qianye immediately changed his expression to a flattering one and moved closer in two steps. "I just can't stand the behavior of the Shimura, Sarutobi and other tribes."
"Then what you did was right?" Uzumaki Mito glared at Chishima Chiba, "You were roasting grandma on the fire, and your second grandfather hasn't come back yet, so what I said was inappropriate."
"Then we should give a warning to the Shimura, Sarutobi and other clans." Chishima Chiba walked around behind Uzumaki Mito and massaged her shoulders. He leaned forward slightly and leaned close to Uzumaki Mito's ear.
"Grandma, they want to take advantage of the opportunity when Second Grandpa goes to the Hidden Cloud Village to negotiate and wantonly steal the results of the first battle. Second Grandpa is not here, so we have to guard the house for him."
"That's true, but you had to tell me in advance." Uzumaki Mito said in a slightly softer tone, "If it weren't for grandma's quick reaction, you would have easily gone wrong if you did this suddenly."
"Although the Shimura and Sarutobi clans are not very strong, they have been on good terms for hundreds of years. In addition, clans such as the Utatane, Mitomon, and Aburame also have close relations with them."
"Once they unite, the noise they can make is still very loud. If you continue to mess around, it may backfire."
Chishima Chiba understood what Uzumaki Mito said and immediately replied with a smile, "Grandma, I know, and I don't plan to take any action against them anymore."
Uzumaki Mito is a smart person. As soon as Chishima Chiba finished speaking, she heard the trick.
"If there is no action against them, then what action do you plan to take?"
"Grandma, it's not really an action. I'm just thinking about perfecting the ninja school founded by my second grandfather."
"Chiba, stop worrying about it." Uzumaki Mito patted the back of Chiba Chishima's hand, "We'll talk about everything after your second grandfather comes back."
"Grandma, I'm worried..."
"Shut up!" Uzumaki Mito turned around suddenly, with a warning in his eyes, "Have faith in your second grandfather, he will definitely come back safely."
"I didn't say anything else, grandma." Chishima Chiba coaxed Uzumaki Mito, "My second grandfather is extremely powerful. He is the number one person in the ninja world after my great grandfather. He will definitely return safely."
Uzumaki Mito's expression warmed up and he sat up straight again, "Then you should just practice honestly and don't get involved in these messy things."
"No need to get involved. Second Grandpa will have to do these things when he comes back anyway, so why not do them for him in advance? This will also make things easier for him."
Chishima Chiba continued to persuade Uzumaki Mito, "Besides, Second Grandfather is not here, so you can't be afraid of trouble."
Uzumaki Mito smiled upon hearing this, "I'm just a woman, how can I have the time to do that? I'll be content as long as I can take good care of you, little Tsunade, and little Orange Water."
"But grandma, there are many things that cannot be done without you." Chidao Chiba continued to persuade, "For example, the ninja school founded by my second grandfather, you have to step in now."
"I come forward? What can I do?"
"You can't do anything, but Uncle Minyou and the others can." Qiandao Qianye brought up Senju Minyou and the others, "Uncle Minyou was seriously injured on the battlefield and can no longer continue to be a ninja."
"Even if he can, he will most likely die in a mission. So instead of letting him become depressed, it would be better to let Uncle Minyou and the others teach at the Ninja School."
Uzumaki Mito's eyes lit up, and she nodded in agreement, no longer saying that she didn't want to be in charge of things.
"I will arrange this. In fact, not only Minyou and his group, but other ninjas with physical injuries can also enter the ninja school to serve as teachers."
Uzumaki Mito even expanded his thinking and thought of all the ninjas other than the Senju clan.
In this regard, Chishima Chiba naturally would not refuse, and gave Uzumaki Mito a thumbs up, "As expected of a grandma, you think much more comprehensively than I do."
"Haha, of course."
Uzumaki Mito laughed happily twice, but then her face turned serious, "Grandma will help you with this matter, but after that, you have to settle down and train and study, and stop thinking about these messy things."
"Listen to grandma."
Chishima Chiba did not refute and agreed obediently.
After chatting with Uzumaki Mito about some family matters, Chishima Chiba got up and said goodbye and left.
Walking out of the room, Chidao Chiba let out a breath. The initial layout was finally completed.
In a good mood, Chishima Chiba returned to his room, but before he entered, Tsunade, who lived next door, had already opened the door.
"Qianye, I can't sleep..."
Tsunade's eyes were dull and her expression was terrified, as if she had foreseen something terrible.
When Chishima Chiba saw Tsunade's appearance, his heart skipped a beat. He thought to himself that something was wrong and took a few steps towards her.
"Tsunade, what happened?"
"I don't know, I just feel like I'm particularly lucky today..."
"You gambled?" Chishima Chiba suddenly grabbed Tsunade's shoulders, "Win or lose?!"
"I didn't gamble..." Tsunade said in a low voice, "I never practice gambling with anyone except you, it's just... I found some money today."
Tsunade pulled out a few crumpled thousand-dollar bills from her pocket. "This is not something that usually happens. You know my financial luck has always been..."
"It's okay Tsunade. It's a good thing to find money. Better luck doesn't mean there will be any problems." Chishima Chiba could only comfort Tsunade in this way, and the tension on his face disappeared.
"No, Chiba. On the day my great-grandfather passed away, I also..."
"Nonsense! How can this be related to your fortune?" He raised his hand to touch Tsunade's forehead and helped her to tidy up her naughty hair. "Be good, go back to the room and have a good sleep. Everything will be fine when you wake up tomorrow."
"Really, Chiba?" Tsunade asked timidly.
This was the first time that Chiba Chiba had seen Tsunade in such a state, and her heart ached. "It's true. I'll take care of everything."
"Then you sleep with me..."
Chishima Chiba shook his head and laughed, and the hand that was gently stroking her hair changed to lightly tapping Tsunade's forehead, "That won't work, but I can coax you to sleep before leaving."
With his other hand he took Tsunade and led her back to the house to settle down.
Sitting on the bed, Chishima Chiba said softly, "How about I tell you a story?"
Tsunade grabbed the thin blanket covering her body with both hands and nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, "Okay!"
A whispering voice then began to float, "Once upon a time, there was a mountain, and on the mountain there was a temple..."
At the same time, Chishima Chiba raised his hand and patted Tsunade's back of the hand. Soon Tsunade's double eyelids began to twitch, and she didn't notice that Chishima Chiba was doing the same thing in an infinite loop.
In fact, Tsunade didn't want to hear a story, she just wanted someone to comfort her when she needed it most.
Looking at Tsunade's breath gradually becoming longer, Chishima Chiba slowly stood up, tiptoed out of the room, gently closed the door and turned back into the house.
But just as I entered the door, the scene in front of me suddenly became blurry, as if covered by a curtain of rain...
Click.
A cloud of dust was raised on the ground.
