Chapter 422

Yes.

He was very concerned about this matter.

After all, it involved the deal with Hiruzen Sarutobi. If he had taken such a huge risk and Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't acknowledge it in the end, or even wanted to take back the rewards given in advance, he would have to go back and have a good talk with him.

Namikaze Minato shook his head helplessly.

"Jin-kun, you!"

"Just set your heart at ease; the Hidden Rock sent a delegation last night, and they are probably already in the Hidden Leaf now to discuss signing the peace treaty."

"Wiping out three thousand Hidden Rock elites in one battle, this matter has already spread throughout the village."

"As the number one hero of this battle, no one dares to erase your contribution!"

But, unfortunately.

He scoffed at Namikaze Minato's words in his heart.

Dare not?!

Heh.

Hiruzen Sarutobi might consider the overall situation of the village, but Danzo certainly wouldn't be afraid of such things.

However, there was no need to talk about this.

Uchiha Jin just shook his head and couldn't be bothered to pay attention to this matter anymore.

"Well, let's hope so." Uchiha Jin said faintly: "The war on the Hidden Rock front is likely about to end."

"What are the arrangements for us? Return to the village directly or wait for the main force?"

Namikaze Minato spoke directly: "The village hasn't said, but we should go back."

"Anyway, the two of us don't belong to the front-line combat sequence; we only came to help."

"Since the battle is over, let's return to the village early."

"I'll go back first to send Kakashi and the others back, and then I'll come find you!"

Uchiha Jin nodded.

Immediately.

Namikaze Minato said goodbye and left, while Uchiha Jin began to bid farewell to his teammates.

After all, they were front-line combat members.

Even if they were to return to the village to rest, they had to listen to the command of the front-line headquarters.

About five minutes later, Namikaze Minato returned.

"Jin-kun, we should go."

"Alright!"

Uchiha Jin had no doubts.

Then, under the gaze of his teammates, Namikaze Minato placed his hands on Jin and Might Duy, and the three of them completely disappeared from their sight.

Shisui shrugged: "The war is finally over."

"You can say that again." Kazama looked helpless: "I'm truly exhausted."

Hyuga Aya nodded.

Just as she was about to speak, Aburame Torune suddenly spoke up.

"What about me!"

"I'm not part of the front-line combat sequence either!"

Shisui: "..."

Kazama: "..."

Aya: "..."

They were all bewildered.

Then they couldn't help but hold their foreheads and sigh!

Good grief.

They had forgotten about Aburame Torune again; but was this guy's presence really that low?

On the other side.

Uchiha Jin, having returned to the Hidden Leaf Village, felt like he had forgotten something, but then shook his head, not bothering to think about such trivial matters.

After all.

For him now, how to settle Might Duy was the most critical thing.

Therefore, without hesitation.

After saying goodbye to Namikaze Minato, he took Might Duy back home.

Looking at the familiar small courtyard, although he hadn't been away for long, he still felt a sense of intimacy.

Yes.

Even without family, this was still home!

Bringing Might Duy home, he immediately brewed a cup of tea for both Might Duy and himself.

"Duy-senpai."

"This is the Hokage's private stash; I had a hard time getting it."

"You're in for a treat today!"

Uchiha Jin said with a smile.

Yes.

This was practically his traditional skill; no matter who he invited for tea, he couldn't help but want to promote the fact that he had good tea.

Most importantly, this was Hiruzen Sarutobi's.

Things belonging to an enemy naturally tasted sweeter.

Taking a light sip of the clear tea, feeling the rich fragrance on his palate, Uchiha Jin instantly relaxed.

Conversely, opposite him.

Might Duy looked restrained, with an awkward smile on his face.

Yes.

Even until now, he didn't quite understand what this big shot wanted with him.

Might Duy, who was simple-minded and came from a civilian background, didn't understand the power struggles of the ninja clans.

Even if the Uchiha had a bad reputation, to him, they were still a prestigious clan of the Hidden Leaf.

They were big shots he wouldn't even dare to imagine in his daily life, especially Uchiha Jin, who, although only a twelve-year-old boy the same age as his own child...

He still didn't dare to be negligent.

After all, he was just a civilian, and a Genin at that.

"Um, Lord!"

"I don't know why you called me over; is there a mission?"

"Please, just give your orders!"

Might Duy asked in a low voice.

Unlike his son Might Guy!

Although Guy-sama was often looked down upon when he was young, he had an awesome circle of friends!

Best friends Kakashi, Obito, and Rin, Ebisu, Aoba Yamashiro, Asuma Sarutobi, Hayate Gekko, Kurenai Yuhi, Genma Shiranui...

Not to mention Kakashi, who was a genius himself and had inherited the connections of Sakumo Hatake, the future Sixth Hokage.

Obito, a cheater.

Asuma Sarutobi, son of the Hokage.

Aoba Yamashiro and Raido Namiashi from the Fourth Hokage's guard...

All of them were Jonin.

Even the one who mixed the worst, Ebisu, was a Special Jonin in the later stages.

Plus, he was super awesome at taijutsu, had shown his awesomeness several times, and became a Jonin and a team leader.

His disciples were Tenten, Neji Hyuga, and Rock Lee.

Might Guy was awesome himself, his circle of friends was full of Jonin, and his disciples were also top-tier.

Even if he came from a civilian background, he naturally wouldn't be too humble. ===== CHAPTER 423 =====
