Chapter 648: Under the Smooth Surface

"What happened outside the yard just now?" Hinata Hirata asked the tribe members casually.

"Report to the patriarch, a Yun Ren accidentally came in and had some quarrels with our guards, but it has been resolved." The clan member replied truthfully.

"Well, go down." Hinata Hiratsuki nodded slightly, but after the tribe members left, he said, "Yun Ren, is it a coincidence?"

The scene of last year's supper couldn't help but appear in his mind. Although Matsuzaki Natsuki seemed to have just mentioned it casually, in fact, the Hinata clan had no room for intervention even though it was the Hinata clan, so the question that night was just a random topic during the meal.

But at this moment, he heard the name of Yunyin's mission again, which made him have some different ideas.

"As that person, what you said casually may be closely related to our clan."

After thinking for a while, Hinata Hirata turned around and headed towards the courtyard where the elders of the clan were located, thinking in his mind that no matter what the truth was, paying attention would always take the lead, so as not to be caught off guard when something really happened.

...

Time passed quietly, and it was seven days later.

The waiting for several days seemed to finally make Yunyin's delegation anxious. He no longer visits Konoha Village, but instead urges Mito Menyan, who is responsible for receiving the delegation several times to discuss the signing of a truce agreement.

However, Mito Menyan also expressed helplessness in this regard, because Hokage sent back a letter to inform him that the time of returning would be delayed for several days due to the incident, so he could only take Yunyin's delegation to see the former Hokage - Sarutobi Hinaru, and he would instead of Tsunade to discuss the matter.

Naruto, in the conference room.

Sarutobi Hinata was smoking a pipe and stood alone in front of the window and sucking clouds and mist.

The door was pushed open with a click, and Xiaochun walked in, said hello and sat down.

The tobacco in the pipe quickly burned out, and only the scorching ashes of red smoke floated out, and there was no value in taking another breath.

"What did Tsunade think? Yun Yin has been hanging for several days, but he has not shown up yet?" Xiaoharu asked Sarutobi Hinazo.

"She was angry at me, thinking that Yun Yin was so anxious to make a truce this time. If he was tougher, he might be able to gain more benefits." Sarutobi Hirasen Dangdang knocked off the embers of his pipe and said with a wry smile.

"Hmph! Not to mention her, even I think so." Speaking of this, Chuan Ni Koharu was also dissatisfied with Sarutobi Hinazo's approach. "Although I can understand your idea, the situation is that Konoha has the advantage. If I persist and be tougher, Konoha will definitely get more, not as agreed in the truce agreement that is to be signed now."

"It's over, so don't worry about these trivial matters, Koharu." Sarutobi Hiruzen could only persuade with a smile.

"A small thing? If Konoha hadn't been in the rich country of fire, you would never have said such words." Zhuanyu Xiaochun curled his lips.

"Haha, this is also our advantage." Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a smile.

Filling the pipe with tobacco, he looked out from the window.

I saw that the villagers came and went on the street as usual, and they had no idea that the village was about to sign a truce agreement with the former enemy country. From this perspective, the villagers and the village were undoubtedly separated.

After all, it is not the larger number of villagers, but a few or even one leader who decides the direction of a ninja village.

And this principle was understood thoroughly when Sarutobi Hinata took over the heavy responsibility of Konoha Village, and what he did now was also doing according to this principle.

"Have Menyan brought Yunyin's delegation over yet?" Xiaoharu asked, "Zhun, looked at Sarutobi Hizun standing in front of the window.

"There is no shadow yet." Sarutobi Hinata said, "Didn't lit the pipe again, and stood with his hands behind his back and looked into the distance.

"Yes." Zhuanyu Xiaochun responded, and then said: "What do you think about Menyan's speculation? Rizhen, what do you think?"

"Let's watch the change." Speaking of this, Sarutobi Hinata pondered for a moment and sighed.

"This may be an opportunity." Zhuanyu Koharu said seriously, "At least Danzo must think so."

"Haha, you're wrong this time." Hearing the mention of Danzo through this incident, Sarutobi Hiruzen turned around with a smile, looking at Zhuanyu Koharu and said, "Danzo has come to me before and he no longer insists on his original opinions on how to deal with Uchiha's recent situation."

"Oh? This is a strange thing." Xiaochun Zhuan said in surprise and suspiciously.

"Let's talk about this later." Before Xiaoharu could ask, Sarutobi Hinata then waved his hand sideways, looked out the street outside the window and said, "Menyan is here with Yunyin's delegation."

Hearing this, Xiaochun suppressed her curiosity and waited quietly.

After a while, Mito Menyan stepped back to the door of the conference room, raised his hand sideways, and asked the one-eyed head and Yun Nin who was accompanying him to enter.

"I have met the third generation of Hokage, and the elder who turned the bedside down." After the one-eyed head walked in, he bowed politely to Sarutobi Hinako and the bedside down Koharu.

"Well, Konoha has already felt the friendly attitude conveyed in Lord Rakage's letter. It was only because Naruto had something to go out recently that he delayed the signing of the truce agreement. Please forgive me." Sarutobi Hinazo said with a smile.

"Master Naruto is so serious." The one-eyed leader quickly pretended to be frightened.

"This matter is Konoha's fault, and there is no doubt. It's just that signing a truce agreement must be signed by Naruto, so I hope you will wait a few more days." Sarutobi Hinazo said gently, "But the time will not be wasted now. We can discuss related trivial matters. If both sides are satisfied, we only need to wait for Naruto to come back to sign the agreement."

"As long as you tell me." The one-eyed leader said without a doubt.

The bystander, Xiaoharu, raised her eyelids and did not open her mouth. She just looked at her old partner Mito Menyan. The tacit understanding she had developed over the long period of time allowed them to instantly see the implicit meaning in each other's eyes. Obviously, they all felt that this Yunyin visitor was a little too easy to talk to, and it was with Sarutobi Hiruzen's attitude being gentle.

According to past experience, Yun Yin is reckless and irritable. When he sees any profit to gain, he will definitely gain a better position and be greedy and even ignore the retreat.

However, the situation at this time was completely different from this. The so-called abnormality must be true. Behind the Yunyin mission so well-knowingly knows how to advance and retreat, there must be other plans hidden, and the biggest possibility is Mito Menyan's speculation.

However, for Sarutobi Hirozen, this matter may not be considered from another perspective. After all, Yunyin, who lives in the plateau, does need to sign a truce agreement to open up trade routes to purchase materials from the Kingdom of Fire. In the current peaceful environment of the ninja world, Yunyin has no other choice, and it is not unreasonable to change his usual style.

There are always people who are lucky enough to reach the last moment of all the tragedies, and when everything comes, the people who are buried are often the same.

Sarutobi Hinasar obviously doesn't understand this truth.
