The girl had long reddish-brown hair, and her right eye was covered by her hair, and only her left eye was exposed.

After forming some hand seals, the water spurted out of the current and formed a water bridge, which was placed on top of the water current.

The girl walked across the water like a strolling leisurely in a garden.

It is much easier than Kakashi.

The whirlpools underneath can't do anything to her.

When the girl landed on the shore, her expression suddenly changed and she looked towards one side.

She then saw a figure wearing black robes, and has silver-white hair. It is Kakashi.

"Terumi Mei, what are you doing here?"

The girl is Terumi Mei from Kirigakure!

Terumi Mei's original solemn expression instantly disappeared when she saw Kakashi.

"Hatake Kakashi? I should be the one asking you that question. We're not near Konoha, so why did you come to the ruin of Uzushiogakure?"

"Uzushiogakure is an ally of Konoha. It's not strange for me to come to this place. Instead, Kirigakure didn't have any relationship with Uzushiogakure. So, what are you doing here?"

The corner of Mei's mouth forms a small arc and then she said: "Guess."

Kakashi was a little helpless when he heard her words. Mei's way of thinking was really strange, and Kakashi couldn't guess what is on her mind at all.

"Forget it then."

"Ahhhhhhhh, what a boring man."

Kakashi was too lazy to pay attention, so he turned and left. After all, he still had things to do, and didn't have the time to talk with Terumi Mei here.

Seeing that Kakashi was about to leave, Mei hurriedly followed after him.

"Hey! Hatake Kakashi, what are you doing here?"

"Guess."

"You're really stingy."

"Mei-san, shinobi needs to guard their secret. You don't even know this?" Kakashi said grimly.

"We can be considered a friend. You are really unkind. You're not coming here for a mission, right?"

Mei sees Kakashi's casual clothes, without Konoha's headband, and he doesn't even have a mask. It doesn't look like he was performing a mission.

It must be said that Mei will become Godaime Mizukage in the future. So whether it is her wisdom or her observation, it is all very good.

"Yeah, you are right. I am indeed come here for a private matter, but there is no need to tell you."

Mei's expression changed, feeling a little wronged, but she immediately adjusted her mentality, and then said, "How about this then? I will tell you the purpose of my visit, and in exchange, you will tell me the purpose of your visit."

Kakashi stopped, and looked up and down at Mei, seeing Mei looked a little bit strange.

"You seem to be very interested in my affairs."

Hearing Kakashi's words, Terumi Mei suddenly felt a bit hot on her face, but she quickly covered it up.

"Why, I'm just curious."

Kakashi just shrugged his shoulder, and said, "Curiosity killed the cat. I have no interest in your affairs, and for you to appear here is because you have some business in the former Uzushiogakure. So your goal must be Uzumaki's Fuinjutsu."

Mei was shocked when she heard this. She didn't expect Kakashi to make a deduction in such a short period of time.

And it's so accurate.

The reason Mei come to Uzushiogakure this time is because she tries to try her luck.

Fuinjutsu has always been a mysterious thing in this world.

The Eight Trigrams Sealing Style owned by Konoha is the most suitable Fuinjutsu to seal a Bijuu, but other villages do not have such a good Fuinjutsu.

For example, in Sunagakure, their Fuinjutsu are very rough, and because of that, Ichibi will take control if the Jinchūriki fall asleep.

Although Kirigakure is not as bad as Sunagakure, but their Fuinjutsu is still not good enough.

Moreover, this kind of Fuinjutsu that is enough to seal the Bijuu is in the hands of the Kage of a village.

So Mei doesn't have it on hand.

In her conversation with Kakashi not long ago, Mei understood that to get rid the Yondaime Mizukage's tyranny and the one controlling him behind the scenes, Yagura must be defeated.

And to defeat Yagura, there is one element that must be considered, and that is Sanbi who is inside Yagura's body.

Yagura can die, but Sanbi is an important resource for Kirigakure. Once they lost Sanbi, Kirigakure's strength will drop by another lever.

Therefore, it is very important to re-seal Sanbi.

But there is no suitable Fuinjutsu in Mei's hand right now.

The force behind Mei is already trying to find a way about this, but the eggs can't be placed in one basket, soMei is also trying to figure out a way.

After thinking for a long time, Mei decided to take a look at Uzushiogakure, which was once famous for their Fuinjutsu. So she thought that maybe there will be unexpected gains.

Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected gain when she just arrived here.

It's just not Fuinjutsu, but Kakashi.

Seeing Mei's expression, Kakashi knew that he had guessed right.

"It seems that you are already planning to finish Yondaime Mizukage, so you want to find a suitable Fuinjutsu to seal Sanbi, right?"

Mei chuckled and said: "Hatake Kakashi, I have to admit that you really scary."

"Thank you for your praise."

In this World, it is not a bad thing to be scary.

At least a lot of bad people won't dare to do anything to him.

"Are you not going to help me?"

Kakashi looked at Mei strangely and said, "Our relationship is not good enough for me to help you. In theory, if Kirigakure loses Sanbi, it is a good thing for Konoha."

"You are so rude."

Terumi Mei stared at Kakashi with her big eyes.

Kakashi's expression didn't change and then he said, "Mei-san, I don't think you are the kind of weak woman who needs help."

"Oh? I can't believe you actually praise me."

"Well, I kind of admire your Strength. Maybe when we meet again in a few years, I will need to call you Mizukage-sama."

"Oh? I think I need to call you Hokage-sama when that happens then."

"Hokage?" Kakashi thought about it, then shook his head and said: "At the moment, I have no interest in that position."

Hearing Kakashi's words, Mei was slightly surprised and said: "I can't believe the famous Hatake Kakashi to be not interested in being a Hokage."

"There is nothing strange about that. Hokage's responsibility is too heavy, so right now, I am not ready for that position."

"So it's like that, but I don't think you can escape that responsibility. After all, Sandaime Hokage is old and it is estimated that he will only able to hold that position for just a few more years. At that time, you will be the only one who has the ability and prestige to inherit that position."

Kakashi just stayed silent. After all, if the plot doesn't change, then Tsunade will come back to inherit the position and become the Godaime Hokage.

But it's still early, so he won't consider these things for the time being.

After all, in Kakashi's view, Hokage's position is not that attractive.

Especially after knowing that ten years later, there will be an unprecedented war in the Shinobi World.

Right now, increasing his strength is more important than anything else.

Seeing that Kakashi didn't speak, Mei thought that Kakashi didn't want to bring up this topic, so she didn't say much.

So a strange scene was formed.

Kakashi walks in front and Mei follows from behind.

If peoples who didn't know anything saw this kind of scene, they would think that Kakashi and Mei were dating

It's just that the man is a little unkind.

"Hey, Terumi Mei, why are you following me? If you want to find a Fuinjutsu, you can find it yourself. So don't follow after me."

It's strange to be followed by someone like this.

"I'm not following you. I'm just walking around, and this place is not yours, so why do you care if I walk here?"

Seeing Terumi Mei's unreasonable appearance, Kakashi felt helpless.

Kakashi can't help but remember a sentence in his previous life.

'Girls are unreasonable creature.'

At this moment, it seems to be a very accurate description.

In desperation, Kakashi didn't bother to do anything to Mei, and walked around Uzushiogakure on his own.

It's not that Kakashi was doing nothing, but after discovering the tombstone, Kakashi wanted to find more clues here.

If someone wants to come here and reach the tombstone, they must pass through the current and the whirlpools.

And for someone to come here, they must leave a trace.

Kakashi looked around, as if looking for something, Mei was very curious when she saw it.

"Kakashi, what the hell are you looking for? Do want to search for it together? Maybe I can help you."

"Trace."

"Trace?"

Mei could not figure out what the hell was the trace that Kakashi was talking about.

What neither of them knew was that in a dark place below Uzushiogakure, a pair of huge eyes shined like a red lantern.

"Hmm? Humans have come here? And it seems that their strength is not weak."

In the dark space, a huge creature slowly stood up.

There is a huge cage in front of the creature.

"This damn seal, it's already 20 years now, so it's already weakened. In another year, I should be able to go out."

Under the faint light, it was vaguely visible that its body was very huge.

There is also a pair of horns on its head!

If someone saw this creature at this time, they would definitely be able to recognize that this monster has an appearance like a ox, but it is much bigger than a ox!

"But now that there are two shinobi coming here, maybe I can use their Strength to get out of here."

Thinking of this, the giant ox cannot help but feel a little exited.

No one does not want to be free.

No one wants to be sealed in a dark place.

Why is Bijuu full of hostility towards humans?

In addition to human beings coveting their power, the most important reason is that Shinobi restrict their freedom.

They are wild and unwilling to be kept as pets.

Besides, which pets are being kept in cages all the time?

Thinking like this, the giant ox's chakra began to slowly seep out along the gap in the seal.

And if Kakashi saw the seal, he would be surprised.

Because that seal is the Four Symbols Seal!

"Come on, human, use your power to set me free again!"

The low voice of the giant ox resounded through the entire dark space.

"Hey! Hatake Kakashi, what the hell are you looking for?"

Terumi Mei asked discouragedly.

Since they starts searching, Kakashi has been walking around non-stop, only stopping to think about something from time to time.

But Mei who followed behind him couldn't understand anything at all.

This makes Terumi Ming very distressed.

"I said, don't follow me."

Kakashi doesn't seem to care about her, and still acts on his own.

"Humph!"

Mei snorted as the dissatisfaction in her heart reached the peak.

"What an uncaring man!"

Mei said, and then she went to the other side, it seems like she intends to start doing her own thing.

Kakashi glanced at her and said nothing.

No matter how much Kakashi liked Mei in his previous life, it is not suitable for him to get close to Mei right now.

The two have different positions and it is hard for them to get close.

At least it will be difficult until the end of the war.

Mei will become the Godaime Mizukage in the future. Kakashi may become Godaime or Rokudaime Hokage. By that time, the possibility of them being together will be even lower.

People from different villages can marry each other, but no one has heard of the marriage between the leaders of the different villages.

Unless one of them gives up the status of leader.

There are too many things involved in this.

Based on this, Kakashi will not consider it for the time being.

Actually, Kakashi has a good impression on Mei, but it has not yet reached the level of affection.

And one thing Kakashi has to admit is that after so many years living in the Naruto's world, his heart is a now bit cold.

It does not mean he lost his emotion.

Rather, he was a little bit cold about the situation of the world.

Especially after the incident with Danzo.

Therefore, Kakashi is still somewhat resistant to such things as feelings.

Kakashi now somewhat understands why Jiraiya choose to travel around the world.

Perhaps he had seen enough of these things, so he chooses to banished himself.

Unfortunately, Jiraiya loved Konoha so much, and in the end, he finally gave his life to Konoha.

Kakashi sighed lightly and ignores Mei's actions. He continued to look for clues on his own.

Terumi Mei walked aside, folded her hands on her chest, and muttered: "This Hatake Kakashi is really a dense!"

Suddenly, Mei feels something!

"What is this?"

A strange chakra emerged from the ground in front of Mei.

Mei feels that it was suspicious, so she moves toward the direction of chakra.

A voice appeared silently in Mei's mind.

"Come here, come here, there is everything you want here."

In a trance, there seemed to have a map in Mei's mind, and she starts to walk and get next to a boulder.

"Destroy this boulder, the thing you want is behind this boulder."

Mei was puzzled, but she didn't hesitate as she feels confident in her own strength.

"Earth Release: Earth Flow Spears!"

An earth spear suddenly rose from the ground, directly smashing the boulder to pieces.

The boulder shattered and a dark hole appeared in front of Mei.

"This is..."

Mei was slightly surprised. From the dark hole, the strange chakra just became much denser.

"Come in, human."

The tempting voice reappeared, and Terumi Mei's mind was in a trance. She no longer hesitates, and jumped into the dark hole alone!
