The border of the Moon Country, Wood Leaf Camp.
In the tent, Sho Sho slowly put down the scroll in his hand.
Then he looked at the several Jonins in front of him who were responsible for the safety of the camp.
"Naruto -sama sent a message to us to maintain the current state of balance." Sho Sho said lightly.
The Wood Leaf Jonins in front of him nodded, but there was a slight doubt in their eyes.
That was because they hadn't seen Watergate for a while.
Although Sho Sho has already informed them before, but with the latter's reputation among the Wood Leaf Ninjas, not appearing for a while will naturally cause some suspicion.
Fortunately, these suspicions were all on the positive side.
Some of the older Wood Leaf Ninjas couldn't help but think of the last Shinobi World War, Watergate also disappeared for a while and developed a new Jutsu.
With his new Jutsu, the Sand Ninjas were defeated, and Wood Leaf Ninjas won the final victory of the war.
Now that the war seems to be in a stalemate, Watergate's disappearance made many people have a kind of expectation in their hearts.
They were looking forward to him breaking the balance again.
Then, these people left the tent, and the last one of them slowly stopped before stepping out of the tent, turned around and stared at Sho Sho with a slight frown.
"Recently, you've been a little strange …?"
Watanabe stared at Sho Sho suspiciously, and the latter's heart trembled slightly.
Watergate told him not to tell Watanabe about Kakashi's capture, and Sho Sho did the same, but he didn't expect that Watanabe would see through him.
"Maybe it's because of the war."
Sho Sho said calmly. The third Shinobi World War has been going on for more than half a year.
Indeed, as a ninja, they are physically and mentally exhausted.
Then, he raised his head and looked into Watanabe's eyes. The latter's suspicious gaze gradually softened.
"Hubby, after this war is over, let's relax as a family of three, okay?"
Although the current situation is still a bit of a stalemate, the Kusanagi Country, Wood Leaf, and Rock's top combat power has been reduced because of Uchiha Yan.
So, after that, the Sandaime led Konoha's army to constantly attack, forcing the Rock to keep fighting, and then compressing the frontline.
He believed that it wouldn't be long before this stalemate would end.
Hatake Sho Sho's heart skipped a beat when he saw the look in Watanabe's eyes.
Their son was captured by the Mist. Although his life isn't in danger for the time being, it's hard to say whether he can return safely.
Therefore, in this situation, facing Jun Watanabe who didn't know anything, he felt very uncomfortable.
Even so, he couldn't reveal the truth.
Because the consequences would only cause Watanabe's mentality to collapse.
"Ok."
So Sho Sho responded softly.
After getting his response, Watanabe directly went out of the tent.
"Jun, I'm sorry …"
.....
In the forest a few miles away from the Wood Leaf Camp.
In Watergate's palm, a slightly darker color Chakra ball was formed. With a thought, the ball disappeared and appeared in front of a tree.
"Buzz."
On the tree, the white jade-like mark gradually exuded a faint light.
Gradually, light began to flicker on the mark and the ball of light. As the light grew brighter and brighter, some sort of ripple began to appear in the empty space between the two.
The ripples weren't violent, but they were extremely obvious, especially when the sunlight shined on it, it disappeared.
When he looked at the ripples, the scene behind, whether it was Watergate's mark or the tree, was slightly distorted.
Watergate watched as the distortion gradually intensified.
Gradually, the ripples spread outward, and the distortion became more and more obvious. Even the Chakra ball of light looked strange at this time.
"Just a little more …"
Watergate murmured in his heart. At this moment, there was a slightly shocked feeling in his heart.
That was Kyuubi's state of mind. Just like Minato, he had crossed time and space, and it was this unpredictable power that turned him into the state he was in now.
So it was angry and frightened. At the same time, it was in awe of Watergate, who was trying to touch this power.
However, as proud as it was, it naturally suppressed this feeling immediately. If it wasn't for Watergate's Corpse Ghost Seal, it wouldn't have become like this.
So anger immediately replaced its previous emotions, but now, it couldn't affect Watergate in the slightest.
When the distortion intensified, the light on the Chakra ball of light became chaotic again, although it wasn't so obvious because of the distortion of space.
But Watergate noticed it immediately. He immediately made a seal with both hands, and the black lines on the special kunai that had already been arranged around him spread out again.
However, when the pattern came into contact with the distortion, it actually spread extremely slowly, and even stopped.
Watergate saw this and took a deep breath. The distortion of space had already affected the deployment of the Space Barrier.
In the face of this power, no matter what kind of ninjutsu, it was useless.
Immediately, he changed his seal, and the barrier stopped spreading to the distorted area, but covered the surrounding area.
But it seemed to be a bit slow.
"Buzz."
At this moment, the light on the ball of light burst, and Watergate's seal also changed. He had to protect the area behind him that led to Wood Leaf's camp.
Otherwise, this uncontrollable power will first cause a devastating blow to the ninjas on his side.
Just when Watergate was about to open a larger Space Barrier with himself as the center, the burst of light collided with the distorted space.
And the energy that was enough to cause destruction to a large area in an instant couldn't break out. The light of the explosion gradually disappeared in the distortion.
This situation was beyond Watergate's expectation, but with his reaction speed, he naturally made a quick judgment of the situation in front of him.
Under the control of Shui Men, the previously incomplete enchantment became complete, covering a radius of several meters.
A few seconds later, the light of the explosion bypassed the distorted space and touched the surrounding Space Barrier.
In the face of that impact, the Space Barrier directly swallowed it.
