"I'm back......"

Xue Nai slowly came in with the sound of the door opening with a tired voice, these days because of the New Year's turn, to arrange the dark part of the three generations of Hokage to complete the shift, she spends every day in the pile of documents, like today, she can only come back at seven or eight o'clock, it is already the seventh day.

During this time, the various ninja villages in the Third Ninja World War seemed to have a tendency to truce, and the front-line fighting conflicts were decreasing day by day, perhaps because of the arrival of the New Year, all ninja villages had a slowdown in the pace of fighting, and even small troops retreated back to the village.

Including Konoha has also transferred back a considerable part of the original defense troops, and it is the callback of this part of the defense troops, plus the three generations of Hokage to let some of the dark parts join the ranks of the shift, so that each defense force ninja can go home to accompany his family one day during the New Year.

This also fully shows that the third ninja world war is coming to an end, as Chiba said, next year, Kaichun, if there is no peace talks, then there will be a decisive battle, and after this Armageddon, then the peace talks that there is no spring will come.

After all, if the other ninja villages have no intention of ending the war, it is absolutely impossible to transfer back the troops, which is already a hint in itself, and of course it is not ruled out as a bait, but these actions have shown that they have already retreated, or that they have plans to end the war, and this is the first time since the outbreak of the Third Ninja World War that all ninja villages have withdrawn their troops.

Anyway, in addition to the ninjas on the front line who can't come back, the ninjas in the village basically have holidays, so they can adjust their mood appropriately, accompany their families, and then prepare for the next year's peace talks, or a decisive battle!

Exhausted......

Although it is a gratifying thing, but Xue Nai is not very happy in her heart, after all, she is the one who arranges the holiday, such as the New Year's Day, many people asked for a day off, which made her exhausted, and finally couldn't help but reprimand the entire defense force, making the dark part of the report in the past few days a little confused.

My image is completely ruined!

Hope not to be heard by Chiba.

After entering the door, Xue Nai felt a little like crying without tears, and felt that if Chiba saw her scolding, her perception would definitely plummet.

And after her heart passed, her steps were stunned, she lowered her head slightly, blinked her eyes, showed a puzzled look on her face, and asked, "Hirohiko, what's wrong with you?"

This season, the small square table between Chiba and Hirohiko's sleeping bunk has been replaced by a kotatsu that is two or three sizes larger than the small square table jointly made by Chiba and Hirohiko, and at this moment, Hirohiko is sitting on the side of the kotatsu with her head down, and her body seems to tremble slightly, so she can't help but ask.

It was cold now, and Hirohiko had just gone on a front-line mission to escort the last of the wounded back, and she was worried about whether Hirohiko had some injuries or something to hide from them.

However, her words were not answered, and she frowned slightly, and asked again, "Hirohiko?"

However, there was still no response, and Hirohiko still sat with his head bowed, his body trembling slightly, as if he hadn't heard her words at all, and it seemed that there was some pain that couldn't make him speak.

"Hirohiko!

This time, the tired look on her face was instantly covered with surprise, she was already in a hurry, and everyone took a few steps in a hurry, and she was about to squat down to see Hirohiko's situation.

"Snow ...... Snow Snow Snow ...... Nai ......"

At this moment, Hirohiko's head turned stiffly, and he said with a shudder.

"This ...... This is...... What's going on?"

Looking at the blue corners of his forehead in front of him, and the face with horror and disbelief and worry pulled down by the black line, Xue Nai's brows furrowed even tighter.

"Thousands and thousands...... Chiba ......"

And at this time, Hirohiko's trembling words came again.

Chiba?

What happened to Chiba?

Could it be that something happened to Chiba?

Hearing this, Xue Na's face suddenly changed, and she hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with Chiba?"

"Chiba, Imas...... Today, today, let go...... Let go and give up...... Finish...... It's a whole ...... A whole ...... One...... One hour of training, with ...... Stay with me...... Choose a task, and buy ...... Buy, buy, buy, buy...... New Year's goods ...... in the kitchen one by one"

Hirohiko trembled and finished all his words in a trembling voice.

What the?

Hearing this, Xue Nai's eyes slowly widened, her small mouth opened slightly, and she opened uncontrollably into an "O" word, almost shocked.

"You...... What do you say?"

As if not believing her ears, she asked again.

"Yes...... Yes, absolutely. ”

Hirohiko said almost with horror.

"It's hard to ...... Unbelievable!"

At this moment, Xue Na's face was already a little tense, and her eyes were full of shock, and even a little frightened.

"You...... You say, Chiba, isn't it...... Broken?"

The cyan color of Hirohiko's forehead seemed to spread suddenly, and the black line pulled down.

"Uh......"

At this moment, Yukina seemed to realize the same problem, the corners of her forehead instantly turned blue, and her entire face seemed to be covered with black lines.

Finished...... It's over, it's over......

Chiba actually gave up training, and it was a full hour......

"Hiroshi...... Hirohiko, right...... I'm sorry...... I...... I'm a little dizzy, Qianqianqian...... Where is the leaf, I ...... I'm going to check it out...... Look at his situation, maybe a few months ago, he ...... He was not diagnosed in the hospital...... Sick, don't ...... No, I ...... I'm going to see him......"

Xue Nai staggered to her feet incoherently, grabbed her hands randomly, as if she wanted to grab something to help, but she didn't catch anything, and the whole thing almost sat down, fortunately, she had practiced soft boxing for many years, and her feet were solid, and she finally stepped on it and didn't fall.

"Outside...... Outside, I ...... I still don't look at it, I suspect that that Chiba is not Chiba, but ...... It's a spy from another village, and the transformation technique has become ......"

Hirohiko pointed to the back door with a shudder, then hugged his knees and continued to shiver.

"Squeak!"

And at this moment, the back door was slowly pushed open, Chiba with a body of heat, pulled the ninja sword in his hand, while taking a long breath, while stepping inside, he saw the swaying Yukina, and Hirohiko who was trembling with his knees, his body was stunned, and then he frowned, his face was full of doubts, and said, "What's wrong with you?

It's strange, I didn't buy wine in the New Year's goods, and Hirohiko and Yukina are only ten years old, so I can't buy wine!

Between the words, Chiba's heart was full of question marks.

But the appearance of Hirohiko and Yukina in front of him is really strange.

"Poof!"

And at this time, I suddenly heard Chiba's words, and when I turned my head, Hirohiko and Yukina were at the same time, and for this reason, Yukina also hit the wall with her shoulder, making a sound of skin and flesh hitting the wooden wall. However, as if she didn't realize it, she looked at Chiba blankly, her eyes were full of horror, disbelief and doubt, and Chiba could almost see in his eyes that "are you really Chiba? Are you still Chiba?"

At the same time, Hirohiko, who was trembling over there, trembled even more violently after this pause, and it seemed that there were broken thoughts such as "he must not be Chiba, he must not be Chiba......".

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

At this time, the sound of footsteps on the stairs came, and Nao rubbed his eyes, looking lazy that he had just woken up, and then asked in a lazy tone, "Can you eat?"

"Nao!"

And after this sound, Xue Na and Hirohiko shouted urgently as if they had found a savior, and then bypassed Chiba, ran upstairs with a snort, hid directly behind Nao, and said urgently: "Just now, this Chiba actually gave up an hour of training time and went to buy New Year's goods for a whole hour, how can you ...... What should I do? You say, is he still Chiba? Or is he Chiba?"

"Uh......"

Feeling the fingers on her left and right arms, the corners of Nao's mouth twitched, and she clearly felt the shock in the hearts of her boyfriend and best friend.

"I said you......"

She said helplessly.

Then, with a sigh.

"And you really gave up a whole hour without training, a whole hour?"

Finally, he said in a questioning tone that sounded bland, but very harsh in Chiba's ears.

"Uh......"

Hearing this, Chiba's eyes narrowed halfway, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

Can I be angry here?

He thought.

"Knock knock!"

And just then, there was a knock on the front door.
