In the ward, time passed slowly.
Suddenly, an illusory spirit body wrapped in emerald green light rushed out of Sasuke's body on the hospital bed. Then Shiraishi, who was standing in the seal posture in front of the hospital bed, slowly opened his eyes. There was no trace of waves in his black and white eyes. .
When Ruri, Lin, and Obito saw Shiraishi open his eyes, they knew that his previous spiritual transformation technique had produced results.
Liuli was the first to ask: "How's it going? Have you found any results?"
Ruri was quite concerned about Sasuke, the only member of the Konoha Uchiha clan.
With the destruction of Konoha Uchiha, the bloodline of the Uchiha clan has become less and less. After all, there were only a very small number of Uchiha clansmen she took away from Konoha. Even if she implemented the policy of having more children and raising more children, But in terms of population, the total number of Uchiha clan still cannot increase.
And most of them are children. If you want to multiply into as large a number as the Konoha Uchiha clan, it is difficult to do it without time accumulation.
Therefore, Ruri is very concerned about every remaining Uchiha clan member. After all, in her view, Sasuke will be of marriageable age in a few years and can dedicate his life to the Uchiha clan's population expansion. share of strength.
Probably because it took too long to use the Spiritual Transformation Technique this time, Shiraishi waited until the numbness in his body slowly disappeared before he answered calmly:
“The specific reason has been figured out, but this is not the place to talk.
Hearing Bai Shi say this, Liuli looked surprised.
"Is it difficult?"
“It’s not difficult to say, it’s just that this child’s situation is more complicated than we imagined.
Shiraishi looked at Sasuke on the hospital bed with emotion. To be honest, he didn't quite believe that Sasuke would actually get entangled with the son of a fairy from thousands of years ago.
Of course, this does not mean that Sasuke is the reincarnation of Indra.
Because the souls of Indra and Sasuke are independent, at most Sasuke's personality will be affected by Indra, but generally speaking, Indra is Indra and Sasuke is Sasuke. The two are not the same person.
Moreover, even without his help, Sasuke can successfully become a famous ninja by relying on the seed of power left by Indra. At most, the road will be more bumpy. Sasuke's original road is very bumpy, and the clan will be wiped out. Hatred has always been an obsession in his heart.
To untie the bell, the person who tied the bell must be tied. If you want to completely untie the knot in Sasuke's heart, I'm afraid Itachi Uchiha needs to come forward.
There is also Konoha's involvement...
The most important thing is that he learned part of the information about Black Zetsu from Indra.
At first, he thought that Black Zetsu was just a mutated individual among White Zetsu and had a close connection with Uchiha Madara, but now it seems that things are not that simple.
If Hei Jue really lived for thousands of years, and started deliberately provoking a fight between Indra and Asura from thousands of years ago, what was his purpose?
Shiraishi frowned, puzzled.
The lack of information is too little to deduce the specific purpose of Black Zetsu.
At this moment, Sasuke's fingers on the hospital bed suddenly twitched slightly twice, and he seemed to be showing signs of waking up.
Naturally, this detail was clearly seen by Shiraishi and others. Shiraishi gave up thinking and pointed the three people next to him with his eyes. The four people immediately used the teleportation technique.
He disappeared from the ward silently so as not to be noticed by Sasuke.
"Jiraiya-sama, it turns out you are here."
In a quiet corner of the clubhouse, Kakashi found Jiraiya, unable to move forward on his own initiative.
"I originally wanted to go find you later, but I didn't expect you to be so anxious. This is not like your style, Kakashi."
Jiraiya turned around and said to Kakashi with a smile.
It can be seen that he is in a pretty good mood.
Since the Kingdom of Ghosts came to power, he has been feeling depressed and depressed. All kinds of pressure from the outside world have made it difficult for him to breathe.
After all, this era is no longer an era where Sannin can thrive. As ninjas, the Sannin are actually half a hundred years old. Judging from the average life span of humans in this era, they have already entered the The procession of old people.
When I do anything, I start to worry about gains and losses, and I don't have the momentum to move forward like I did when I was young.
"Well, there's something I'm quite concerned about."
Kakashi meant something.
"Is it because of Naruto?"
"Hmm...there's something wrong with Naruto's tailed beast state. It seems...it's not his own power."
Kakashi hesitated for a moment, staring at Jiraiya's face, as if he wanted to see something from Jiraiya's face.
But to his disappointment, Jiraiya just slowly put away his smile, shook his head and said: "I'm sorry, you asked the wrong person about this kind of thing. Although I initially guided Naruto to use the Nine-Tails Chakra, That kind of strange state is beyond my control. If you hadn’t asked me this way,
I thought it was you who was up to something. "
"You think highly of me, but I don't have that ability."
Kakashi denied it.
Jiraiya nodded, he didn't think Kakashi had the ability to do it.
In this way, Naruto's secrets are worthy of his deep thought.
Is it Sarutobi-sensei? Jiraiya guessed.
Then he shook his head secretly and rejected the idea.
He knew that as Hokage's mentor, he had a very complicated attitude towards Naruto. On the one hand, it was out of shame for Minato and he wanted to take good care of Naruto.
But on the one hand, we have to consider the importance of Naruto as a Jinchuriki, and hope to control a powerful weapon like Naruto.
Now that Konoha's high-end power is gradually declining, it can be said that Naruto, as a jinchuriki, will be Konoha's most important combat force in the future.
From the fact that Naruto was entrusted to Kakashi's care, it can be seen that his mentor Sarutobi Hiruzen has already begun to deal with his own funeral affairs.
Thinking of the old body of his mentor Hiruzen who coughed from time to time in recent years, Jiraiya's mood became heavier again.
With the opponent's waning energy now, I'm afraid he doesn't have much time to secretly guide Naruto to use the power of the Nine Tails.
"I will investigate the secrets in this area."
Jiraiya said calmly.
In fact, after excluding the answers to several questions, the only remaining result is that Naruto and Kyuubi have reached some kind of agreement.
The Nine Tails no longer interfered with Naruto's chakra, and began to actively help Naruto.
Although this guess is a bit unrealistic, there is no other answer that can explain Naruto's abnormality.
The green-eyed boy playing with the nine-headed beast recalled the future predicted by the Great Toad Sage, and Jiraiya became even more convinced that Naruto was the legendary son of the prophecy.
Because the future is beginning to get closer to the reality predicted by the Great Toad Immortal.
Naruto will be the key to changing the world.
That's a problem for you. "
Regarding Naruto's affairs, Kakashi also knew that he would not be able to interfere too much in the future. The third generation intended to transfer Naruto's guidance to Jiraiya. This was no longer something he, as the ANBU minister, could control. Something happened.
Besides, he had more important things to do next and didn't have much energy to take care of Naruto.
Now Naruto is not a fledgling who just left the ninja school. He has already learned the preliminary flight. The rest of the way can only be completed by himself.
"Kakashi, your next task is to protect Uchiha Sasuke. According to my investigation, after Orochimaru left Konoha, he began to work on forbidden techniques such as reincarnation. His purpose is probably to kill Sasuke." He took possession of his body as his own and obtained the bloodline of the Uchiha clan."
While Kakashi was thinking, Jiraiya reminded him of this again.
Although Jiraiya didn't have much dealings with the Uchiha clan in the past, he also knew how powerful this family's Sharingan was.
If a dangerous person like Orochimaru were allowed to obtain the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan, the consequences would be disastrous.
After Orochimaru placed a curse on Sasuke, it is conceivable that Orochimaru's ambitions have become obvious. He has made no secret of his coveting of Sasuke and the Uchiha ninjas that exist today. Orochimaru, the country of ghosts, does not dare to touch easily.
Uchiha Fusion is a member of the Akatsuki organization and is not an easy target.
In contrast, it is reasonable for Sasuke, who has not yet grown up, to be listed as the optimal hunting target by Orochimaru.
The Kingdom of Ghosts has already made Konoha very overwhelmed. If Orochimaru, who is hostile to Konoha, is allowed to grow in strength, Jiraiya will feel dizzy just thinking about it.
If Tsunade hadn't traveled around the world and been missing all year round, otherwise, the pressure on him would have been reduced by at least half.
"Don't worry, I will take care of this."
Kakashi promised to come down.
"please,"
Although there were still many things that he wanted Kakashi to help with, considering how to deal with Orochimaru and the various ANBU affairs, Jiraiya knew that Kakashi's burden was not much easier than his own.
After all, there are too few ninjas with strong deterrent power in Konoha today.
After discussing with Kakashi for a while, Jiraiya left in a hurry.
His affairs are very busy, investigating the mysterious organization and Orochimaru, paying attention to the trends in various countries, teaching Naruto to become a useful person, and then he has to find Tsunade and bring her back to Konoha to succeed the fifth generation of Hokage. Because Jiraiya understands that his teacher Sarutobi Hi Zhan's body is declining day by day, and he is no longer able to deal with Danzo's martial arts forces, so he must quickly decide on the next Hokage.
And Tsunade is the only candidate to succeed the next Hokage.
"Congratulations, you won the special prize!"
The Kingdom of Forest, far away from the Kingdom of Ghosts.
In a casino, Tsunade sat in front of a gambling machine and looked blankly at the special prize displayed on the gambling machine. Her first reaction was not joy, but a sinking heart.
For her who is often defeated, winning the lottery is not a good sign. On the contrary, it is some kind of premonition before the bad omen comes.
And it’s a special prize. Will he suffer a bloody disaster recently?
The more she thought about it, the more annoyed she became. Sitting in front of the gambling machine, Tsunade began to fidget.
"Shizune!"
No reply,
According to past habits, after she shouted this sentence, Shizune would immediately appear holding the pink pig Dolphin.
But not now.
"Really, does it take that long just to buy a lunch box?"
Tsunade bit her fingers and started to shake her legs. She always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't tell what was wrong, and she was so confused.
With the silent speed, it won’t take that long to buy a packed lunch.
Moreover, with Shizune's skill as a jounin, if a battle broke out, it would not end silently. There would definitely be a commotion, giving her time to provide support.
At this moment, a voice came from my ears:
"Sister, is your name Tsunade?"
Tsunade turned her head and looked to the side.
He was a boy in plain clothes, with black ash on his face, which he probably accidentally touched while playing.
"I am, what's the matter?"
The boy glanced at Tsunade's chest and swallowed subconsciously. The man who asked him to come over was right. He was indeed the most beautiful one in the casino and had the biggest breasts.
"Well, an uncle asked me to give this to you, sister. He said he would hand it over to you personally,"
The boy also knew that it was rude of him to stare like this, so he quickly came to his senses, took out a letter from his pocket, and handed it to Tsunade.
Tsunade calmly covered the surface of her palm with a layer of chakra. In this strange place, even a harmless boy could not be easily trusted.
Although she is a medical ninja, some poisons cannot be removed instantly. She must be careful when going out to avoid capsizing in the gutter.
After taking the letter and finding no poison on it, Tsunade opened it with confidence, took out the letter paper inside, unfolded it and glanced at it.
Not long after, Tsunade's face suddenly darkened,
The Kingdom of Fire, Daming Mansion.
In a cool courtyard corridor, the daimyo of the country lay down on his side, with the back of his head resting on the thigh of a kneeling maid. There were also several beautiful maids holding cattail leaf fans, fanning them lightly.
Just when the Fire Country Daimyo wanted to take a nap, a messenger came over in a hurry, as if he had something urgent to report to Beijing.
"What's up?"
The Fire Country Daimyo was slightly displeased, and his turbid eyes swept over the waiter's face.
"Elder Danzo asks for an audience."
The messenger did not dare to be slow and expressed his intention quickly.
The tiredness on the Fire Country Daimyo's face quickly disappeared, he sat upright on the maid's lap and waved.
The maid and the envoy withdrew wisely, leaving only the Daimyo of the Country of Fire alone.
Not long after, an old man with a gloomy face who was about the same age as the Fire Nation Daimyo walked straight up with a cane.
"Are you coming to see me this time, Danzo?"
The Fire Country Daimyo said to the gloomy old man.
Danzo frowned slightly at the Fire Nation Daimyo's remarks, but was quickly relieved.
"It seems Hiruzen has been to your place recently."
Generally speaking, as a Hokage, if Hiruzen wanted to visit the Daming Mansion, he could not do it secretly, and he had to have detailed regulations. And in this way, every time the Hokage travels, it means that it is impossible to satisfy everyone's ears and eyes.
But now that Danzo has not learned about this, it can be known that Hiruzen carried the advisory group and the roots on his back, traveled lightly, and came to the Daiming Mansion to have some kind of cooperation with the Daimyo of the Land of Fire.
"After all, he is too old to do anything anymore. It is indeed time to find an heir."
The name of the Fire Country is not hidden.
With Danzo's mind, he could guess it quickly, and there was no point in hiding it.
"Has the Daimyo-sama agreed?"
"The current Konoha can't stand the torment, let alone"
Just as the Fire Country Daimyo was about to say something, Danzo interrupted forcefully:
"Konoha must rise from the ashes. Conservative ideas have corroded Konoha for many years. It's time to make changes."
His tone was decisive and his posture was aggressive.
It seemed that he was also frightened by Danzo's aura, and the Fire Country Daimyo fell silent slightly.
"But I think that although the Daimyo of the Fire Country did have some fondness for Danzo in the past, now that the situation in Konoha has gradually stabilized, as a Daimyo of the country, he has to recalculate the gains and losses in his heart.
Originally, he had planned to treat the original deal as non-existent if Danzo didn't come to him.
Unfortunately, Tuan Wei arrived as promised, leaving him in a dilemma.
"The Fifth Hokage, no one can do anything but me!"
Danzo took a step forward with a fierce momentum, looking towards the Fire Country Daimyo with burning eyes.
The fire country daimyo's face darkened slightly.
As Damingfu's ninja troops suffered heavy losses in the Rain Country War a few years ago, he had been in a passive position for the most part during several negotiations with Konoha's top brass, no longer active or equal.
Danzo's attitude towards him now and his attitude towards him a few years ago have naturally changed.
This was already forcing him to make a decision.
But soon, the dissatisfaction on the Fire Country Daimyo's face disappeared, and his face became sleepy again, as if he had lost his energy.
"Don't go too far. I don't want to see a chaotic Konoha."
"I will handle this matter properly. The daimyo just needs to wait for my good news."
Tuan nodded with satisfaction, and even his aggressive aura softened, although the dark and gloomy aura on his body still made people feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Then, I'm busy with my affairs, so I won't disturb the daimyo's rest. I'll take my leave."
Danzo bowed slightly, as if the Fenty before did not exist at all, turned around and left without any hesitation.
Rather than talking, Danzo seemed to be here to inform, not to seek the opinion of the Fire Country Daimyo.
"What a troubled time..."
The Daimyo of the Fire Country watched Danzo decisively leave and sighed quietly, as if he was worried about the future of the Fire Country.
This unstable bomb could not help but explode in Konoha after all.
"I hope you will be safe and sound in the future, Hiruzen.
