The annual ninja promotion drama develops step by step under Gushan Bushui's conscious and unconscious attention.
Among the graduates every year, anyone with a discerning eye knows which children are special.
The group that Kaoru, Usami, and Kurama Yakumo are in is the result of a compromise after a struggle between all parties. The leader of the group, Kurenai Yuhi, seems to understand his identity, and several big shots directly related to it all acquiesce.
As a newly promoted jounin, having the honor to lead such talented children is a highlight on his resume that will last a lifetime.
Kurenai Yuhi was not the one who got the biggest bargain, but Ebisu was the lucky one who truly rose to the top in one fell swoop.
The eighth team of Hyuga Hinata, Aburame Shino and Inuzuka Kiba may not be as sensitive as the seventh team, and they are not as sensitive as "Ino Shika Butterfly". They are the die-hard supporters of the third generation of Hokage, and they are also the most powerful in the leaf village. One of the ninja clan.
Especially Hyuga Hinata, this is the eldest daughter of the clan. Although she is not valued by the family leader, her identity has not been stripped away.
There are only a handful of people in the village who are lucky enough to have been teachers of the Hyuga clan, and except for Ebisu, none of them are still alive who have taught the direct lineage of the clan.
Ebisu, who was worried about gains and losses, had been preparing for this day for a long time, but in the end he managed to maintain his aura as a senior and did not show timidity in front of the students.
Now that you have taken the first step, it will be easier to say what follows.
In comparison, Class 10 was calm, Class 13 was going smoothly, and Class 7 was a little less interesting.
The style of the team leader Kakashi Hatake is very different from that of ordinary ninjas. Coupled with the arrogant Uchiha Sasuke, the competitive Uzumaki Naruto, and the love-minded Haruno Sakura, it can be said that, There is still a long way to go to get on the right track.
Fortunately, Hatake Kakashi's strength is really impressive. Whether it is the revengeful Uchiha orphan, the impatient Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki, or the weak-looking Haruno Sakura with a violent heart, they are all convinced.
In this atmosphere, Gusugi Bushui and Hongye stayed in Konoha Village for half a month, taking their three little daughters to and from school from time to time, while Xianglin began a long journey of completing low-level tasks.
After Xiaoyi, Xiaojing and Xiaosi had almost adapted, Gushan Bushui and Hongye were ready to return to Yuqi Island.
The three little guys, who have never left their families since they were born, have to live independently in Konoha Village this time. Although they have arranged maids and servants, and there is no shortage of playmates, this is the first time they have left home alone.
When it was time to say goodbye, even the carefree Xiao Hiiragi felt a little reluctant to leave.
My parents have important things to do when they get home. Fortunately, my sister is based in Konoha Village. She often goes out to do tasks and is only at home when she is on vacation.
Although she was a little uneasy, as the elder sister, after saying goodbye to her parents reluctantly, she had to comfort her two uneasy little sisters. It was hard to tell that they were actually triplets born on the same day.
After explaining to Togakushi Hinode who stayed in Konoha Village and Kaguya Kimimaro who had transferred to Shinjuku Town, the couple embarked on their journey home.
The next time we meet is probably the Chunin Examination in the middle of the year. At that time, the "Konoha Collapse Plan" will officially kick off the turmoil in the ninja world in the next few years.
------------------
At the end of February and the beginning of March, the chill of early spring had completely disappeared. In the north of the Ninja Continent, the land gradually turned green, and the warm Inaba Country and Yuqi Island were already colorful.
As the most secure, beautiful and livable tourist destination in the Ninja world, people with money and leisure come here to enjoy it.
After returning, Gushan Bushui was not busy taking care of the family business. Instead, he left it to his capable subordinates and focused on sorting out his own strength.
The benefits after swallowing the fruit of the sacred tree are not achieved overnight. While devouring natural energy, he strengthens his strength and enriches the relatively scarce power of the Samsara Eye. Gushan Bu Shui enjoys the feeling of becoming stronger while lying down.
Time is always on the side of immortality.
Gu Shan Bu Shui is now at least half of an immortal species, even if he is not a complete one.
The biggest flaw still lies in the insufficient accumulation of strength and incomplete mentality change.
These all take time to adjust slowly.
In your free time, you can also pass the time by organizing your strength and investigating the source and context of the power of the ninja world.
Gu Shanbu Shui, who sat under the sacred tree when he had nothing to do, and realized the subtle changes in natural energy, gradually figured out a little bit of the flavor.
"Planting sacred trees, absorbing natural energy, cultivating fruits, and becoming stronger after swallowing them is essentially the same as the demonic way of swallowing the sky and the earth. The sage model currently circulated in the ninja world is actually using levers to leverage more powerful forces. Means. To put it bluntly, the so-called esoteric immortal mode of the three major psychic beast holy places are all prepared for people who are 'unqualified'..."
If we use a simple and easy-to-understand capital operation metaphor, one's own chakra is the capital. The sage mode practice method provided by the three major spiritual beast holy places actually provides users with capital allocation and leverage, with smaller "capital". "Gold" leverages larger funds and gains stronger power.
Ninjas who practice sage mode become stronger, but take greater risks.
The three major psychic beast holy places bear smaller risks and draw stable "commission" income.
If you make a profit, everyone is happy. If you lose, the "capital allocation" will forcefully close the position with leverage and get back the capital and profits. As for whether the user lives or dies, that is another story.
The six-path model adopted by the Otsutsuki clan and Shenshu is like a supervisory department that sets up card collection on the ground. As long as the market scale is large enough, stamp duty and other taxes and fees will be collected, and profits will not be lost.
Anyway, it’s our own cash machine. It depends on the situation whether you can charge more or less.
Looking at it this way, the so-called qualifications are actually the same thing as capital and authority. If you are born without it, you have to take a risk. If you win, you will become a motorcycle, if you lose, you will become an Alto, or even an Oreo. Swallowed.
The qualifications of the natives of the ninja world are actually difficult to describe. To say it is poor, the potential of a few individuals scares the Otsutsuki clan. To say it is strong, overall, 99% of them cannot even grow a qualified leek. Can't do it.
If managed well, the ninja world is the most prosperous land, but if it is not managed well and becomes neglected, it will be useless.
After listening to Kosugi Fusui's complaint, Otsutsuki Kaguya responded:
"This world has always been like this. It doesn't matter what's right or wrong. They can be as small as a nymph or a nymph, or as large as a concept of the ninja world, as weak as an ant, or as strong as the people of the Otsutsuki tribe. They are all trying to survive and expand their living space. Each expression has its own form. The difference is essentially the same. Natural energy is not available on all living planets and requires special means to stimulate..."
Natural energy is not the vitality of heaven and earth, nor is it magical power, nor is it illusory blessings, misfortunes, luck or the like. However, the characteristics of this thing actually have a little bit of each.
There may have been some strange supernatural powers in the beginning of the ninja world, but there was no such pure and overwhelming natural energy. This actually happened after the Otsutsuki clan discovered the ninja world and began to colonize it. thing.
As for why this is the case, Kaguya Otsutsuki himself has explained that the real key lies in his identity as the "ancestor of Chakra".
Since the first divine tree fruit was cultivated by the divine tree in the ninja world and was eaten, chakra, a supernatural power that is not universal and not universal in the entire ninja world, began to spread rapidly.
"The birth of each sacred tree fruit is actually equivalent to forcibly inserting and strengthening the underlying rules of chakra and natural energy on the colonial planet. Just like there are three precious metal currencies of gold, silver and copper circulating at the same time on the market. Suddenly, the use value of metal copper increased significantly and gradually became mainstream, pushing the other two precious metal currencies to the margins or even disappearing. Hundreds and thousands of years later, people only knew about copper coins and forgot that there were ever coins. Two types of hard currency, gold coins and silver coins.”
"I roughly understand that because the Otsutsuki clan needs chakra and natural energy, they actively or passively change the underlying attributes of the colonial world. Just like our Furusugi family's fleet, suddenly discovered an alien world in the sea. After integrating the isolated island into the strong economic order of the ninja world, the local shells and beautiful stones used as currency lost all value and disappeared from the trading market."
"There are some discrepancies, but it's generally correct."
Kaguya Otsutsuki did not invade the ninja world alone, but colonized the ninja world itself on behalf of an interstellar race, rather than deliberately targeting the ninja world.
Orcs, half-orcs, elves, fish-men, etc., no matter their form or race, in essence, to Otsutsuki Kaguya, they are all the same. As long as they can provide more chakra and natural energy, the sun will never fall on Daiei. Colonizing the world, whether they are Bantu or Tutsi, chiefs or prisoners of war, Asians, Africans or Indians, they all have a common identity, that is, slaves, and they are all consumables for the construction of colonies.
The Otsutsuki clan's interstellar colonization goes a step further. It is an invasion and transformation of the bottom layer of the world, rather than playing a game of empire and conquest with indigenous intelligent life.
This is not a duel on the same level at all.
"In other words, the demise of the mythical age and the survival of the three sacred places of psychic beasts are actually the result of this change in the world?"
"They... don't have the qualifications of the Otsutsuki clan, but they are trying to do the same thing. Sage mode is actually like a child swinging a sledgehammer, which is very dangerous. If they rely on themselves to do it, the progress will be too slow, and they will cut off the innate talent. It's normal for the indigenous humans of the ninja world to be 'leeks' who have worse qualifications and started later."
To put it bluntly, it is just a different division of labor in the "food chain" under the world rules dominated by the Otsutsuki clan after its transformation.
There is no telling who is superior or inferior between rabbit, fox and tiger, but in front of humans, both can be food.
"It's a crazy world."
"You're one of the crazy ones too!"
Otsutsuki Kaguya sneered,
"What your Gushan family did in the past was not necessarily very benevolent. Whether it was the era of the great lords or the current era of the transformation of the elite capital oligarchy, it is the same. The only difference is how secretive the methods of exploitation are. "
"it's the same!"
Gu Shan Bu Shui was silent for a while and sighed sadly,
"Things like life, tracing back to their origins, are actually the same thing. What has changed is the difference in productivity. The core context has always been like this."
This has always been the case in ancient and modern times, at home and abroad, in past and present lives.
"Even so, it doesn't stop my compassion, which has no place to place, to raise the lower limit of this world a little higher and make my food and appearance more beautiful."
"As you wish!"
Otsutsuki Kaguya said nonchalantly,
"In the long journey of life, there is always something to do..."
"For example, like you, have two unfilial sons for fun?"
"You bastard, don't think that the ninja world will let you, a fake native, fish in troubled waters. Sooner or later, they will set a trap for you."
"It's okay. I disguised myself very well. If I want to cause trouble, I will first deal with you, the restless former 'big devil', and the 'agent' who is causing trouble in the ninja world. I'll probably touch that guy's tail. At one point, it seems that the ninja world is looking for a suitable layout of chess pieces, and I am wondering whether to hand them over to the next generation of 'saviors' to deal with, or to go out and play with them myself."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Shanbu Shui, on a whim, manipulated the accompanying sacred tree. With a sudden breath, the natural energy of dozens of kilometers in radius was swallowed up by the whale. Then, thunderclouds rolled, strong winds blew, and a sudden storm suddenly arose.
"What are you doing? If you do this often, you will be easily targeted. You might as well wait until you are strong enough, use Infinite Tsukuyomi, drain the lake and swallow it all at once..."
"Look over there?"
Following the direction of Gu Shan Bu Shui, Otsutsuki Kaguya's eyes spread to a courtyard in the aristocratic area of Yuqi Island through the mysterious tentacles of perception, where a woman with straight long hair was having sex with Kankan. The two children who stood firm and spoke more eloquently talked to them to sleep.
There was a strong wind outside, and thunder and lightning gathered together to form a ferocious beast. It spit out blue and silver spherical thunder and lightning, which passed directly through the void and fell into the woman's body, but she herself was unaware of it.
"This is……"
Originally, Uchiha Mikoto was supposed to have died on the night of the Uchiha genocide a few years ago. Now Katsura Mikoto has been silent for a long time. Furugi Bosui also thought that there might be some secrets in this person that have not been discovered.
However, Gushan Bushui did not focus on studying these trivial things, but went straight to the root of the fruit of the sacred tree, and reached the sky in one step, from an important chess piece to a chess player.
"Hey, tell me, if I don't drain the nearby natural energy in time, let this power continue to accumulate, and finally explode, who will it fall on?"
For Kaguya Otsutsuki, a former villain with extremely bad luck, it is already a definite result that the good will not work but the bad will work.
"I'm just saying it casually, I'm not really cursing you for bad luck."
The sudden appearance of this thing reminded Otsutsuki Kaguya of the past when she was tricked into giving birth to two unfilial sons. Although she didn't regret it, she was just a little unhappy.
