Thinking of the many bits and pieces of the original timeline, Gu Shan Bu Shui was also extremely emotional.
Now that Mizuki has switched to the Fushugi family, there is no need to encourage Uzumaki Naruto to steal any sealed books, let alone to defect to Orochimaru.
The silver-haired teacher, who was already married and had children, didn't want to give it all up easily now.
Without him, Gushan Bushui is also very interested in who will take his "role" and how the situation will develop.
"There is still more than a month, let me look forward to it!"
Looking out the window, heavy snow has fallen again. A sharp cold wave is sweeping across the entire Ninja Continent from north to south. Wisps of surging natural energy are sucked into the body by Gushan Bu Shui. After digestion, they become their own resources. .
"This is a bit slow, aren't you in a hurry to improve your strength?"
Kaguya Otsutsuki asked with some confusion,
"The seeds of my sacred tree are ready and ready to be planted. It depends on when you arrange for the 'miko' to hold the big ceremony on behalf of you."
"The witch who thinks of God as a god can't even walk steadily. Let her preside over the sacrifice. I'm afraid she doesn't want to make people laugh."
"Just laugh. Not many people will see it anyway. Do you still care about this?"
"When we go back this time, let's carry out the New Year Festival so that you don't have to wait too long."
After saying this, there was silence for a long time before Otsutsuki Kaguya hesitated and said:
"I want to thank you for this! If it hadn't been for my request, you could have condensed the next divine tree fruit earlier. Although the savings of the ninja world for more than a thousand years are rich, they are not unlimited. You and I each cultivate a A sacred tree, harvesting a sacred tree fruit, coupled with the passive consumption of my breaking out of the seal, I am afraid that I will have to reserve it for many years..."
"It doesn't matter, I have a lot of time now, so I can wait! In contrast, spending time with my family and friends is more important! With you tossing around, you are a living target, which can save me a lot of trouble."
"All right!"
This is the truth, but it is true that Kosugi Busuui performed convenience and benefited Otsutsuki Kaguya.
"What, you're not used to accepting benefits from others?"
The former "Goddess of Mao" replied:
"The Otsutsuki clan is an interstellar colonial race that pays great attention to efficiency, rules and hierarchy. They do not give benefits to others for no reason without expecting anything in return."
Gushan Bu Shui waved his hand nonchalantly:
"If a long life is just to go on step by step like a machine, what's the point? If you can't satisfy your own desires, what's the point of working so hard? In my opinion, the essence of detachment is actually the pursuit of For a process that is omniscient, omnipotent, and omnipotent, why should we be obsessed with the so-called efficiency and be a slave to time?”
"You... seem to be more adaptable to the morality of the immortal species than I am. Indeed, after being sealed for so many years, you have really lost your proper mentality."
"That's right! Don't worry! I used to feel how great and powerful the underworld will of the ninja world is, but now, I feel like I'm watching the elephants and jackals and tigers and leopards in the zoo encounter each other through the iron railings, fighting bloody battles. Feeling. The Sage of Six Paths is indeed great. He combined his body with Tao and turned himself into materials to make up for the rules of the ninja world. Even after death, he was used. You and I probably wouldn't think of becoming such a person!"
"Longevity means that the vitality of the body is infinitely replenished. It does not mean that the mind will not be tired and the soul will not decay. In fact, there is no telling about the future!"
"So, essentially, we are just immortal, not immortal!"
"Even the starry sky will one day die. Didn't you say before that the increase in disordered entropy will definitely lead to the eternal death of chaos?"
"Who can see what is at the end of life? Is it possible that the chaos we call is the beginning of a new universe?"
Kosugi Fusui smiled sarcastically. The half-baked knowledge of theoretical physics Otsutsuki Kaguya heard from her host may not necessarily be the truth.
"Stop talking about this, I'm going home to celebrate the New Year soon. Starting next year, I'm afraid there will be a series of fun. Let me think about it, what have I forgotten now? By the way, Momochi Zabuza, dried persimmon Kisame And Yuri Lin..."
The matter about the Mist Ninja, especially the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, is indeed interesting.
The fourth generation of the watermark, Gotachibana Yagura, wanted to play a trick. Unfortunately, he probably underestimated the threat level of the "Akatsuki" organization. Using two masters as bait may not be able to catch fat carp. Those who take the bait may also be dangerous. great white shark.
Of course, it remains to be seen how it will develop, and it is not yet time for conflict to break out.
------------------
Three days later, the Gusugi family's motorcade left Konoha Village in a mighty manner, arrived at the Shinjuku Town Pier, boarded the luxury cruise ship, and headed for Yuqi Island.
Since the leader of that powerful family left, the top management of Konoha Village breathed a sigh of relief obviously.
Big creditors who are overwhelming people come to the door, and they are afraid that they will be offended in some way, so they give them little shoes to wear.
Every small change in the debt interest rate may result in enough profits for an ordinary ninja family to struggle for a lifetime.
A grain of sand of the times weighs more than Mount Tai if it falls on an ordinary person.
Among the hundreds of thousands of residents of Konoha Village, one of the happiest ones must be Uzumaki Naruto.
He didn't know there would be a graduation test early next year, but he already regarded himself as a real ninja. In his eagerness, he even found a piece of iron, carved a forehead protector on his own, and secretly wore it at home to look in the mirror.
When he thought about becoming an official ninja, like the protagonists in the heroic ninja legends, becoming a hero and being respected, Uzumaki Naruto couldn't help but wake up from his dream with a smile.
There are still a few days before New Year's Eve, and various traveling merchants gather in the village, adding a lot of fireworks to Konoha Village.
This morning, Uzumaki Naruto, who had made an appointment with Nara Shikamaru, Inuzuka Kiba and others to go shopping, made preparations early.
Taking out some pocket money from the piggy bank, Uzumaki Naruto hurried out.
It has to be said that Konoha Village still has a lot of heritage. Even if it has been robbed of a lot of popularity by the nearby Shinjuku Town, it is still a prosperous place that ranks among the best in the ninja world.
After playing around for a while, a few people took a break on a bench by the roadside. Naruto Uzumaki asked with a little regret while eating hot oden:
"Sakura...and Ino and Hinata, why don't you come out to play? By the way, Usami has a good relationship with them, but I never seem to see her alone outside. Isn't it a little strange?"
"Eh?"
Inuzuka Kiba asked strangely,
"Naruto, are you also the kind of annoying person who likes to speak ill of people behind their backs?"
"I won't say bad things, I'm just a little curious! And Xianglin doesn't often go out alone to play."
"We are not familiar with them, why do you care about this? What do you mean by saying so much?"
"I……"
Uzumaki Naruto blushed slightly and mumbled a little embarrassedly,
"I heard that in the future we will be a team of three. I don't know who I will be a teammate with."
Akimichi Choji's mouth was full of snacks and he asked vaguely:
"Then who do you want to team up with?"
"Of course it's best if we know each other well, and it would be even better if we have Sakura."
"You think a lot."
The current Uzumaki Naruto is indeed not the last one, but he is also one of the few people at the back. Except for some improvement in practical classes, there are no other subjects that he can pass. The overall evaluation is still terrible.
At this time, Uzumaki Naruto was not very good except for the Shadow Clone Technique. He was not the one who could cast transformation techniques, hide in the shadow of Fuuma Shuriken, and defeat "Ghosts" without killing them. A qualified ninja caught off guard.
"Is it impossible? I think there is hope! Also, it's best not to be with that guy Sasuke, and neither is Xianglin..."
"You're asking too much! Have you asked Iruka-sensei?"
Lazy Nara Shikamaru said nonchalantly,
"Maybe he has information there."
"I've asked, but unfortunately, Iruka-sensei doesn't want to tell me! It would be great if Mizuki-sensei is here. That person is easy to talk to. If he only asks for a request, he will definitely be willing to reveal it."
"Teacher Mizuki?"
Aburame Shino, who has always had no sense of presence, lifted the sunglasses on the bridge of her nose and said slowly,
"It's winter vacation. Teacher Shuimu and his wife and daughter are back. I saw them buying food at Taifuyi yesterday."
"Huh? Shino, you're here! Mr. Mizuki has been out for a long time, and I haven't seen him much in the second half of the year. I heard that he has moved to a new house and is with his wife and daughter every day. He is so happy."
"Where did you hear this nonsense?"
Inuzuka Kiba and Akamaru fed each other delicious food, and then teased,
"I heard that you often use your shadow clone to peek into privacy. Isn't that bad?"
"What's wrong!"
The guilty Uzumaki Naruto shrank his neck.
"I don't know what it's like to be a ninja. Shiro and Neji graduated before us, and we haven't had much contact with each other since."
Nara Shikamaru sighed:
"You have participated in the 'King of Fighters' challenge, formed a team together, and interacted with them. Choji and I are not familiar with them."
"oh!"
Just as several people were saying this, at the top of a tall building in the distance, Jiraiya took back his telescope and sighed melancholy.
He turned around and jumped down. He made several vertical leaps and flew over the walls and across the streets at super fast speeds. A few minutes later, he arrived at the Hokage's home office.
"Jiraiya, are you going to see someone again?"
"Hmm! I'm a little hesitant! The Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki does have a good foundation, good character, and integrity... I can see many valuable qualities in him, but..."
Jiraiya replied to Sarutobi Hiruzen,
"As a ninja, he still lacks the necessary awareness. He is too immature, old man. Are you protecting him too well? There is no sense of crisis at all."
The Hokage Sandaime smiled and knocked on his pipe, taking a few puffs.
"Unlike Princess Mito and Kushina, although his qualifications are good, he does not have enough strength to suppress the nine-tails chakra. You also know that in this situation, if his negative emotions resonate with the nine-tails, the consequences will be It’s unimaginable.”
If the Nine Tails attacks the village again, I don't know if they can successfully resist it.
After Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara, who kept the Kyuubi as pets, are in the past, the only one in the village who has greater confidence in defeating the Kyuubi is Jiraiya.
"Anyway, there is still time, so you don't have to rush to make a decision. Apart from him, are there no other children you like?"
"The child named Bai is really good, a scholar as pure and flawless as snow. Unfortunately, the people of the Gushan family found him first. If I had known it, if I had made more trips to the Kingdom of Water a few years ago, I might have been able to Discover it in advance and bring him back.”
"Let's not talk about the past! You have been to the Kingdom of Water too many times. I'm afraid the Mizukage will rush to convene a meeting of the Five Shadows to question our plans!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was talking with a smile, was in a good mood recently. After years of debt, this year's report finally looked a little better, which made the Sandaime, who had been in charge of the village for many years, breathe a sigh of relief.
The Country of Fire is indeed prosperous, and the Konoha Village rooted in this country can recover very quickly as long as it throws off its burdens.
"According to your idea, I will prepare some planned and unplanned tests for those children to test their ability to adapt to changes in circumstances and their instinctive choices in critical situations."
"Um!"
For now, that's all we can do.
At the same time, in the basement a few hundred meters away from the Hokage's house, Shimura Danzo lifted the gauze on his head, revealing a three-magatama Sharingan. He looked at himself in the mirror with satisfaction and finally recovered to a general level. He has achieved most of his peak strength.
The biggest loss is, of course, the loss of Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan, which prevents him from using the most powerful genjutsu, Betsutenjin, and lacks a trump card.
Secondly, the transplanted arm inlaid with a lot of three-magatama Sharingan was gone, and several opportunities to cast the forbidden technique Izanagi were lost.
Of course, it was not all without gain. Shimura Danzo felt that the vitality inside his body was extremely strong. After the danger of Yin and Yang imbalance was suppressed by the precious medicine, Shimura Danzo also discovered that he had mastered the Wood Release and became more and more proficient.
This improvement requires a huge expenditure of resources to maintain and cannot be sustained for a long time.
In fact, it doesn't take long. As long as it lasts for another three years and the container is changed again, everything will get better.
At that time, with the power of Wood Release and Sharingan, he was reborn in a new young body. Presumably at that time, nothing could stop his ambition.
"Uchiha Sasuke, it's mine, no matter who it is, no one can take it away!"
No matter who it is, as long as they are preparing to use the forbidden technique: Fuzhi Reincarnation, they will naturally turn their attention to the Uchiha orphan.
Orochimaru is like this, and Shimura Danzo is no exception.
If it hadn't been for the last reincarnation and I hadn't found the opportunity to take action, I wouldn't have had to wait another three years.
When he thought that his plan had reached a critical moment, Shimura Danzo couldn't help but smile with relief.
As long as you master the power of Wood Release and Sharingan at the same time, and then hold the unparalleled power of the Nine Tails in your hands, everything will be perfect.
There was only one thing that made Shimura Danzo a little worried.
"Sandaime, are you planning to secretly accept the position of Hokage with your students? Jiraiya is not the only choice..."
