"The rocking car is too rocky." Naruto commented truthfully.
"Okay." Sakura pursed her lips, stood up obediently, and asked an unrelated question, "When can we start over there?"
"It's almost time, just wait a few days." Naruto said perfunctorily and stopped, "Wait for Iwagakure, Sunagakure, and Kumogakure to respond."
"I'm a little curious, how did you convince them?" Sakura asked.
"It's nothing, a little trick, I won't be able to tell for a while." Naruto responded, closing his eyes, thinking that giving up Kirigakure Village would have no impact.
In a dark cave somewhere.
Kabuto Yakushi didn't receive the samsara eye transplant, he couldn't trust others. So I found an experimental puppet that had been transplanted with mature Hashirama cells and prepared it to be used as a container for the Samsara Eye.
"The extent of Orochimaru's development of Hashirama's cells is really amazing." Black Zetsu said with emotion as he stood aside and watched Yakushi Kabuto prepare for the surgery.
"Indeed, I added a little bit of my own understanding to it." Kabuto Yakushi turned his head slightly and showed a gloomy smile.
"The power of the Samsara Eye is too strong, and Bai Jue's power is too weak. Judging from the current situation, using puppets to transplant the Samsara Eye is the best choice. I hope you understand."
"Yeah." Hei Jue nodded, thinking what he could do even if he didn't understand.
Currently, Kabuto Yakushi has obtained the Immortal inheritance from Ryūchi Cave, and his talent is even vaguely higher than that of Orochimaru. Black Jue can't say anything, is it internal coaxing?
Uchiha Obito has committed suicide, Uchiha Madara has not yet been resurrected, and Orochimaru is missing. He couldn't find many allies, so he had to compromise temporarily.
"So... when will we start strengthening the 100,000 White Zetsu army?"
"Soon, after the transplant operation is completed." Yasuo Kabuto turned his eyes slightly to look at Hei Zetsu, "But before that, we need to obtain a more powerful Hashirama cell experimental body."
"who?"
"The Jonin of Konoha, Yamato." Kabuto Yakushi said with a smile, "We have obtained enough materials for the reincarnation of the dirty land these days, and we only need the last dose of medicine."
"Understood, I'm going to capture the target." Hearing this, Hei Jue was about to turn around and leave.
"Wait a minute, I have something to give to you." Kabuto Yakushi called him, using the snake tail behind him to pass a potion to Black Zetsu at the side.
"What is this?" Hei Jue lowered his head and glanced at the potion in his hand. The whole potion was green.
"Hashirama cell inhibitor can inhibit the activity of Hashirama cells in Yamato's body." Kabuto Yakushi explained while performing the transplant surgery on the puppet.
"Inject this potion into Yamato's body, and you can easily capture him. There is no need to waste chakra, and there is no need to risk exposure."
"It's really scary that you have even researched this kind of thing." Hei Jue stood there and stared at him.
"This is not the result of my research, but something that belongs to Lord Orochimaru. I just inherited Lord Orochimaru's research and created it." Kabuto Yakushi had a smile on his face.
"By the way, I need a living Yamato, not a corpse."
"I know." Hei Jue disappeared underground.
Konoha.
Sakura had quietly left Konoha and sneaked into Amegakure Village through the Underworld Gate without anyone noticing. Xiao Nan received her and arranged room and board for her.
At the dinner table, she looked at the heavy rain outside the window, stopped using her chopsticks, and frowned slightly.
"If we build a laboratory here, the weather will also be a problem."
According to Naruto's wishes, he planned to set up the genetic laboratory in Yuyin Village. It borders the Kingdom of Fire, the Kingdom of Wind, and the Kingdom of Earth, and has a superior geographical location.
Not only that, Yuyin Village also has an advantage that cannot be replaced by other places, the industrial base. Even if you are poor, you can still squeeze in a small amount of money to supply a genetic laboratory.
"What should we do?" Xiao Nan asked sitting at the end of the dining table without taking a few bites.
The sound of raindrops sounded, and Sakura pursed her lips in thought, but did not immediately answer her question. After a while, she raised her head, looked at Xiao Nan and asked.
"The equipment can be found. The Hidden Rain Village needs to provide a sterile and dust-free environment and control the constant temperature. Let's find someone to solve these problems. Now we have to ask Naruto for someone."
"Yes." Xiaonan responded. She knew that the other party would make arrangements, and she only needed to follow the arrangements.
Even though Sakura is much younger than her, Konan doesn't show any signs of neglect. Naruto had told her his plan to build a genetic laboratory in advance, but he only sent one Sakura.
Konan knew very well that the other party must have Naruto's trust in terms of ability and other aspects.
The next day, Naruto passed through the Underworld Gate and arrived at Yugakure.
"You want someone?" Naruto was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Sakura, "That's no problem, how many do you want? Just mention what specific requirements you have, and if you have any difficulties."
Hearing this, Sakura's eyes turned into crescent moons with laughter.
"OK!"
"Find four or five trustworthy people, preferably medical ninjas with a certain foundation in medical ninjutsu. But don't use people from Konoha's medical class. It's too troublesome to keep secrets."
"It costs money to purchase equipment, as well as daily expenses, and you have to find people to do technical work. Construction standards inside and outside the laboratory must be in place, and in addition..."
Sakura talked a lot, and Jiazhen said it all in one breath. In the end, Naruto regretted it a little. It shouldn't be a big deal. It would have been better if I had known that I could overcome the difficulties.
It’s just that there is no regret medicine in the world.
"Okay, let me ask if there are a few people from Sunagakure Village." Naruto thought for a while and said, "I will figure out the equipment and money. It can be set up in two days."
"Huh? After working for a long time, you didn't prepare any money at all?" Sakura was dumbfounded, "Then you asked me to resign, but in the end I didn't prepare anything, then I take a vacation?"
"That's not the case. Generally speaking, there is a temporary shortage of funds, not enough money, and no equipment." Naruto laughed, "Anyway, everything will be solved in two days."
"I will get the people for you in the next two days, and you will train them first."
"Okay." Sakura curled her lips. She had been used to high-pressure working conditions over the years, but she was not used to being free all of a sudden.
Xiaonan followed and said nothing.
"By the way, how is the village recovering?" Naruto saw Konan out of the corner of his eye and asked casually.
"The reconstruction is almost ready. The thermal power generation department has been built, but we are just short of money." Xiaonan said with some embarrassment.
Money, no money.
Naruto wanted to slap himself, why are you talking so much? If you don't ask, there won't be any problems. Wherever you go to get money now, the grass on Caddo's graves is already five feet high.
"It's okay, I'll figure it out." Naruto forced a smile.
"Really?" Xiaonan obviously didn't expect Naruto to care about such a thing, and couldn't help but feel a little overjoyed, "That's really great."
"Haha, yes." Naruto's smile remained the same, his eyelids twitching.
Konan and Sakura left hand in hand, leaving Naruto alone on the tower. He watched their figures disappear behind the door, and his face suddenly fell.
"Where's the money? Where can I get it! I'm so handsome but I don't have any money. Who made all the money?" He muttered around the office like an old farmer.
Who can earn the money? A nobleman, or a rich man like Cardo who is as rich as the country.
But nobles are common, but rich men like Cardo who are so wise are not common. Naruto couldn't think of a solution for a while, so he turned his attention to the nobles of the Fire Country.
When there was a conflict with the nobles of the Fire Country, these stupid nobles looked on with cold eyes. It was not until the upstart was killed by them that they jumped out to show their courtesy.
Even though they have a nice attitude, the subtext is just asshole. We won't mess with you, and you shouldn't come around and cause trouble.
To put it bluntly, the population of the Fire Country is just green cabbage in their eyes. Even if there is a war, for them it is just a sigh similar to, "Oh, the harvest this year is not good."
Ninjas are responsible for fighting on the front lines, and the daimyo of the Land of Fire only needs to think about the name of the medal. During the sage's time after eating, sleeping and opening a bank party, think carefully about whether to call it the Send Bar Medal or the Lonely Warrior Medal.
He had long been unhappy with the name of the Fire Country. They were originally a group of Celestial Dragons, not to mention sitting on countless wealth. There are also the so-called Twelve Guardian Ninja around, which is too stupid.
Konoha.
Shikamaru looked at Naruto, a rare guest, and felt a little dazed for a moment. The work intensity has been too high recently. He hasn't had much rest for a month and almost left with Tai Nai.
Now I suddenly saw Naruto in the Nara clan's territory, and thought he was hallucinating.
"Why do you have time to come here?"
"Come and take a look." He looked around and saw no one, then took a step forward and said, "Are you free? How about you take me to meet Asma?"
"Asuma? Do you have anything to do with him?" Shikamaru was a little confused.
"More or less, I have something to ask him." He nodded and spoke vaguely, "I'm not familiar with Asuma, and I won't be able to find him for a while."
"Okay." Shikamaru didn't think too much and agreed directly, "Just wait for me for a while, I'll finish handling the things on hand, and I'll take you there on the way."
Upon hearing this, Naruto simply sat down and waited. For a while he touched the antlers on the wall, and for a while he stood up and stared at the huge deer skin in deep thought.
Shikamaru couldn't stand his pretentiousness anymore, so he sighed and said.
"Sit down and have a cup of tea?"
"No, no, just go about your business." Naruto waved his hand and refused, "I can do small things like pouring tea myself, you don't have to worry about me."
Shikamaru:"."
Is this a matter of pouring tea? This guy is walking around there and can't calm down to work at all. But he was also used to Naruto's ungrateful appearance and managed to finish the work.
Walking on the way to Asuma's house, Shikamaru suddenly realized that if he were Naruto, it would probably be difficult for him to be so generous and ask him to find Asuma.
Maybe I'll find a formal reason, but I won't come so shamelessly.
He shook his head, getting rid of all the thoughts that had just occurred in his mind. I have been busy with work recently. Standing in that power arena, I unconsciously think about how to move forward.
It's funny to say that he was originally a person who was very afraid of trouble. But because of his intelligence, when he is immersed in work, he will unconsciously think about how to make his life smoother due to the thought of laziness.
On the contrary, Naruto didn't care about these at all and didn't care at all. But with his current status and abilities, he probably doesn't need these things.
Boom, boom, boom, Shikamaru knocked on Asuma's door. Naruto met Asuma as he wished. Since Yuhi Kurenai and her daughter were both at home, Naruto found an excuse to ask Asuma out.
"What do you want from me?" Asma asked with a smile.
He had good senses about Naruto, and even though there were rumors that Ino and Hinata were in two different situations, Asuma still didn't dislike Naruto because of it.
Relationships are a very personal matter. At least in terms of relationship network, Naruto can be said to be the person with the strongest background in Konoha. It was about ten Kakashi thick, about the same as three Jiraiyas.
Therefore, one is equal to three cards.
After all, Sarutobi Hiruzen died in the line of duty at that time, and among the three remaining old guys in Konoha F4, the two advisors except Danzo gave priority to asking Jiraiya if he had the intention to serve as the Fifth Hokage.
"I want to ask something about the daimyo." Naruto scratched his head, smiled and said, "I remember Asuma-sensei was once one of the twelve guardian ninjas of the daimyo, right?"
"Well, what's wrong?"
"Well, Master Jilu should be one of them, right?" Naruto took a roundabout way and then revealed his true purpose, "I want to ask about the Shuangyu incident back then."
"That thing, um. Why do you suddenly want to ask this?" Asma didn't seem to be very resistant to the question and glanced at him casually.
"I've encountered some things related to it recently, so I came here to ask." Naruto said very vaguely, and he couldn't say that I wanted to give the Daimyo a blow.
"The Double Jade is actually not that complicated, it's just a legend." Asuma took a sip of tea and the moment the tea cup fell to the ground, "The Twelve Guardian Ninjas were established after you were born."
As soon as Asuma's words came out, Naruto's eyelids twitched. Lao Ma didn't beat around the bush, she started talking straight away and connected the Nine Tails incident directly.
"How to say?"
"Originally, there was no such thing as the Twelve Guardian Ninja Warriors. Konoha has always protected the capital of the Land of Fire." Asuma had nothing to hide and revealed all the information he knew.
"But after the Night of the Kyuubi, the village suffered heavy losses. At the same time, the huge destructive power of the tailed beasts also made the daimyo very afraid, fearing that ninjas would usurp the throne. So they selected elites from all walks of life and established the Twelve Guardian Ninjas."
"I was young and ignorant at the time, and my ideas were contrary to those of the Sandaime Hokage, so I became angry and joined the twelve guardian ninjas of the daimyo."
"At that time, there was a man named Kazuma among the Twelve Scholars who radically believed that Konoha should belong to the daimyo instead of becoming weaker and weaker under the leadership of the Hokage."
"Then we fought, and those five people were killed by us, so Shuangyu just let it go." (End of Chapter)
