When Kakashi left and was on his return trip to Konoha, he happened to meet a team of Iwa Ninja. Fortunately, Minato arrived in time.

While the Iwanin thought they had just encountered a wild Konoha ninja, they were stunned for a moment when Minato suddenly appeared.

It was this moment of hesitation that gave Minato the opportunity to bring Kakashi back using the Flying Thunder God Technique.

This is also the reason why he ran from the direction of the blast sword mist ninja battlefield.

At that time, because he had to come to support Chika, he did not clean up the battlefield but just came with the corpse on his back.

Unexpectedly, his special kunai that was not taken back became the key to escape.

Not to mention the road to escape.

Those three teams of Iwa Ninjas were worthy of being called a demolition unit. They chased and intercepted them all the way, using earth escape to change the terrain at any time, causing Chika and the other two to suffer a lot.

Moreover, they were accompanied by a ninja who was highly skilled in perception, and they could not be shaken off even after many attempts of escape.

Fortunately, Minato's Flying Thunder God Technique was used well, and he also treated the Military ration pills as chocolate beans, so he was able to return to the territory of the Land of Fire with Chika and Kakashi.

With the help of the Fire Country border ninjas, the three were able to completely get rid of the three teams of Rock Ninjas.

When the gate of Konoha appeared in front of the three people, Chika and the other two finally showed expressions of relief.

"Finally, I'm back!"

Minato looked up at the gate with the Konoha Village mark engraved on it, and an expression of emotion appeared on his slightly thin face.

It has taken almost ten days from the time they accepted the task to now.

This was not the longest field mission for Chika and Kakashi, but it was definitely the most impressive one.

They had so many feelings in their hearts that they couldn't even describe them in words.

After completing the registration for entering the village, the three wounded men walked in with staggering steps amid the astonishment of the registering ninja.

Along the way, even Minato didn't communicate with anyone until he walked into the Hokage's office.

At this moment, Hiruzen was sitting on his desk, which was always covered with piles of documents.

He was smoking a pipe and only looked up when he saw someone coming in.

"It's Minato!"

However, when he saw who was coming, he was stunned, "What are you doing?"

Looking at Chika and the other two, even Hiruzen was a little confused.

At this moment, the three of them were injured and weak, even Minato's cheeks had become thinner, looking like they had been drained of energy.

If Hiruzen didn't know Minato's personality, and if it wasn't for the fact that it was a task he personally assigned to him, he would have thought that Minato had gone to the red light district to have fun for a few days before coming back.

But it was clearly just a B-level intelligence collecting mission, how could they be so embarrassed?

He was also very clear about Minato's strength, so even if he encountered an emergency, he would not be unable to escape.

But looking at the appearance of these three people, not only have they experienced an unimaginable battle, but they also seem to be the ones who suffered losses.

Is this still the Minato he knew? !

Hiruzen came back to his senses and asked solemnly, "Did you meet a Kage?"

"No, Hokage-sama. After we left the village, we rushed to the mission site without stopping. After completing the mission, we encountered a sudden attack by the Sand Ninja while resting in the town."

Upon hearing this, Minato recounted how he had been attacked by the Sand and Mist ninjas and how he had escaped from the pursuit of the Rock ninjas.

Of course, he didn't mention the flag that was raised that night.

After listening to Minato's report, Hiruzen remained silent, just kept looking at Chika and the other two.

The Red Sand Sasori of the Sand Ninja, Murasaki Shinpachi and Kushimaru Kurisai of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, and the three blasting teams of the Rock Ninja.

Even if he, the Hokage, personally came out, he wouldn't be able to enjoy this kind of treatment.

"Third Hokage, this is the intelligence scroll of our mission!"

Seeing that the Third Hokage remained silent, Minato also placed the scroll for this mission on the table.

Then he looked at Chika again.

Seeing this, Chika nodded and took out three sealing scrolls.

Minato was stunned and looked at him with a puzzled look.

Chika explained: "I'm sorry, Minato-senpai, on the way to escape, my ninja tool bag broke and I accidentally lost one of them. It was the body of Kushimaru Kurisai."

Chika hadn't thought of this when he was being pursued by the Iwagakure ninja.

When they returned to the Land of Fire, Chika remembered that Kushimaru Kurisai had seen him use the Flying Thunder God Technique before he died.

If he hands over Kurisai's body, who knows if it will be discovered by the Yamanaka clan.

So, after returning to the Land of Fire, He found an opportunity to destroy Kurisai's body on the way.

Minato didn't say much after hearing this.

Kurisai himself does not have any bloodline limit, so there is nothing special about the corpse. The purpose of bringing it back is just to explore the information that Kushimaru Kurisai knew.

This information is probably also in his companion Murasaki Shinpachi head.

Chika untied the three scrolls one by one.

Then two ninja swords and a corpse appeared in the Hokage's office.

Hiruzen stood up at this time, and without looking at the mission scroll on the table, he walked to the corpse and the ninja sword, and after checking them once, he nodded and said, "Yes, it is indeed the long sword · sewing blade and the explosive sword · flying foam!"

After saying that, he remembered that in Minato's report, Chika killed Kurisai alone. He turned his head and looked at Chika carefully.

Back then, under Kushina's leadership, Chika already had the ability to kill a jonin.

Although Kushina asked two Anbu to keep it secret at that time, Hiruzen still knew about it.

So, he knew that Chika was quite capable.

But unexpectedly, Chika's strength was strong enough to kill Kushimaru Kurisai.

Hiruzen praised Chika, "I can't believe that in just a few months after graduation, you have grown to the point where you can kill someone of Kurisai caliber alone. You are indeed a genius of the Uchiha clan."

Hearing this, Chika said modestly: "You are too kind, Hokage. It was because of Kurisai's carelessness that I had the opportunity to kill him."

"That's right, young man, don't let arrogance or impatience mislead you. You will definitely become a powerful ninja in the future."

Hiruzen nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this.

Then he explained to Chika and the other two, "Originally, these two ninja swords should have been considered as your spoils of war, but the Land of Water will not give them up easily. What do you think?"

Minato and Chika looked at each other and understood what Hiruzen meant. He wanted them to hand over the ninja swords to the village, and then the village would get some benefits from the Water Country.

Chika and Minato had no objection to this.

Then Minato said, "It's all up to Hokage-sama."

Upon hearing this, Hiruzen shouted to the Anbu at the door, asking them to take the two blades and the corpse away.

Then he pondered for a while and said to Chika and the other two.

"Although the village did not issue a mission against the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, you were able to kill Kushimaru Kurisai and Murasaki Shinpachi and bring back the two swords. This is a great achievement for us in Konoha. It would be unreasonable not to reward you."
