Both are still young at heart and lack emotional support.
The time Kawasaki brought them from the Land of Water to the Land of Fields made them develop a deep attachment to him.
Fortunately, as the Kawasaki Project progresses, everyone will be able to reunite soon; it won't be long.
After calming Bai down, Kawasaki looked up at Kisame and Kyoko and said, "Kisame, you and Kyoko can take a long vacation. You'll still get paid."
"You stay in Otogakure for a while. When the next phase of the plan begins, you and Orochimaru will come together."
Upon arriving at Otogakure, Kisame found it to be an excellent place, with Shisui and Itachi being highly skilled in martial arts, providing him with opportunities to fight every day.
He loved the food nearby and didn't have to kill his comrades.
Moreover, Kawasaki still pays him a salary even if he doesn't work; you'd be hard-pressed to find a boss like that.
"No problem, boss, thank you for the paid leave."
Kisame grinned, his smile seemingly never fading.
"Karin, Jugo, you must listen to Orochimaru here."
Karin and Jugo were both rescued by Kawasaki, although they didn't spend much time together.
However, they were closer to Orochimaru, so Kawasaki didn't give them much advice.
Kawasaki nodded slightly to Itachi and Shisui, indicating that he had already communicated with them and there was no need for further arrangements.
Orochimaru did not appear; he never wasted time on such matters.
"Then I'm leaving!"
Kawasaki waved goodbye to everyone with his back turned and left gracefully.
Bai and Kimimaro watched Kawasaki leave for a long time, only coming back to their senses when he disappeared from sight.
...
After leaving the village, Kawasaki directly used the gold dust and sand mats he had obtained from Rosana.
These skills cannot be used in the dream space, and Kawasaki fears that if the experiment fails, he will no longer be able to enjoy them.
Therefore, he did not summon these things until after he left Otogakure.
Although it can only be used once, the expiration date is not specified.
As long as chakra is continuously supplied, can it be maintained indefinitely?
Kawasaki thought to himself.
A patch of golden sand appeared out of thin air and then gathered into a cushion that looked like a cotton candy.
Kawasaki stepped on it and felt pretty good, so he increased his chakra output.
The area of the sand mat increased, and Kawasaki lay down comfortably on it.
The sandbag flew forward according to Kawasaki's thoughts.
The feeling of flying is wonderful!
Although the sandbags don't fly very high or very fast.
But with the chakra reserves of the Uzumaki clan, this expenditure was nothing to him.
Many parts of the Land of Fields are sparsely populated, and Kawasaki, remaining at treetop height, flew straight towards the Land of Iron.
While the sand mat isn't fast, it can't be accelerated simply by injecting more chakra.
With the expansion of the area, there is also a risk of collapse.
However, Kawasaki was already quite satisfied under these conditions, and he thought to himself with a happy heart.
Would you call this cheating?
...
857 Konoha Village, the territory of the Uchiha clan.
Hizashi received his first mission at the Konoha meeting and the following day delivered a letter of invitation to the Uchiha clan.
He was still wondering if he would be rejected, but to his surprise, Fugaku Uchiha quickly agreed.
And he wasn't received in a meeting room, but in his own backyard.
When the messenger arrived, the two sat facing each other. Fugaku focused on making tea and said nothing else.
Hizashi couldn't contain himself: "Chief Fugaku, my purpose in coming here is twofold: first, to apologize for the leak, and second, to address the issue of those vacant shops in the Eighth Street."
Fugaku took a sip of tea and tapped the table lightly: "The leak has nothing to do with you, and your Hyuga clan's apology is completely insincere."
Hizashi's heart tightened; this was indeed not simple. He replied with a wry smile, "Clan Chief Fugaku, our clan chief has dismissed the Fourth Elder, Kaito, from his post. He is currently under house arrest, awaiting your decision."
Fugaku laughed heartily: "Hizashi, look how anxious you are. You used to call me by my first name."
"How did you become the head of the Fugaku clan? When did we become so estranged?"
Hijiri looked bewildered, as far as he knew.
Given that the Hyuga clan did such a thing, the Uchiha should be extremely resentful, so why did Fugaku show no anger at all?
Upon seeing this, Fugaku shook his head: "Our Uchiha's independence plan has already been formulated and has nothing to do with this matter."
"Did you have this planned in advance?"
Hiji had a vague premonition.
“Even without this incident, we would have seized other opportunities; this was just a coincidence.”
Fugaku made no attempt to hide anything from Hizashi, not because he trusted Hizashi's character, but because things had come to this point and it was alright to tell him.
"Kawasaki said before he left that your main family would definitely restrict you, and it's already quite remarkable that they've waited until now."
"this...."
The sir held his teacup, at a loss for what to do.
Fugaku narrowed his eyes: "What conditions did the Third Hokage offer you in exchange for this deal?"
Although the sage has been honored as an honorary elder, the announcement has not yet been posted.
After the Uchiha clan withdrew, their access to information about the village also decreased significantly.
Hizashi lowered his voice and said, "The Third Hokage offered me an honorary elder position, and the family gave it to me."
Fugaku quickly realized the situation of the Hyuga clan and why Hizashi was able to obtain the position of honorary elder.
Seeing that Hizashi still seemed somewhat uneasy, Fugaku said, "Don't worry, we will have other conditions to negotiate regarding your Hyuga clan's matter."
"As for what to do with your fourth elder, Kaito, let's wait until Kawasaki returns before making a decision."
When Richa heard that there were exchange conditions, he breathed a sigh of relief.
If the Uchiha clan lets them go so easily, then Hizashi will really be in trouble.
"As for the shops on Eighth Street..."
Fugaku thought for a moment and said, "We don't plan to sell it for the time being, but we can consider renting it out."
"I wonder how Chief Fugaku plans to rent it out?"
Since the Uchiha clan isn't selling, renting is a good option.
Fugaku stood up, took a stack of land deeds from the nearby document rack, and handed them to the squire.
"These shops are all in your hands; you manage them for me."
You can negotiate the rent yourself, then just give me the total amount later.

Konoha (Hidden Leaf Village)
Naruto group 1060928735, office 1.
The daily report came back quickly.
The intelligence they brought revealed that the Uchiha clan was unwilling to sell, but only willing to rent.
The Third Hokage took a drag of his cigarette: "Is there any other explanation for Fugaku?"
Richa, mindful of the principle that the more he said, the more mistakes he made, shook his head.
"Who did the Uchiha send to handle these matters?"
There were quite a few shops, making the situation rather complicated.
Hizashi replied, "Fugaku didn't assign anyone else; he put me in charge of this matter?"
The third generation paused for a moment, then nodded: "Yes, I understand."
Seeing that the Third Hokage had given no further instructions, Hizashi bowed and withdrew.
Only the third generation remained, sitting alone in the office.
The Third Hokage took a drag of his cigarette, somewhat annoyed. He hadn't expected that the Hyuga clan wouldn't be reprimanded by the Uchiha.
In this matter, he was the mastermind, Danzo was the behind-the-scenes manipulator, and the Hyuga clan was the executor.
Unexpectedly, the Uchiha seemed completely unconcerned about this matter. Or perhaps Fugaku and Hizashi were just too close friends?
The Third Hokage sent Hyuga to handle this matter, originally intending to probe the situation.
If the relationship between the Uchiha and Hyuga breaks down, he can win over the Hyuga side.
Unexpectedly, the Uchiha clan didn't pursue the past at all and even let Hizashi manage these shops.
The third generation tapped his pipe with a slightly anxious look.
The Uchiha clan has now become a huge potential threat, and the Third Hokage has yet to find a solution.
The daimyo of the Land of Fire has already started promoting a new restaurant project; it remains to be seen how it will develop.
"dong dong dong..."
Just as the Third Hokage was pondering, there was a knock on the door.
"Please come in."
Instead, members of the communications department's secret service entered. These secret agents were usually responsible for delivering important confidential messages or orders.
