Konoha Village, log cabins.

Sou!

The figure between the pillars flashed and suddenly appeared in front of the trio.

Along with the inter-column appeared.

And a whole bunch of packed noodles.

Suddenly.

The aroma of noodles filled the cabin, causing the trio's stomachs to charge one after another, already in a state of hunger.

"Teacher ......"

The trio greeted the pillars together when they saw them, but everyone was weak, and there was no way for them to put them in a better mental state when they were hungry.

"Let's eat noodles first."

Pillar looked at the packed noodles on the table, and said with a smile, "Eat it while it's hot." ”

"Yes!"

After hearing this, the trio suddenly rushed towards the packed noodles like wild horses, no longer without any restraints.

"Eat slowly, no one will rob you, each flavor here is packaged, you all try it, tell me which flavor you like, and next time I will buy your favorite food directly." Pillar admonished.

"Yes!"

Yahiko Nagato and Konan nodded immediately, and then opened each bag in turn.

With the packing bag opened.

The aroma of ramen is more clearly flowing into everyone's nose, which greatly stimulates their taste buds.

"I'm going!"

Xiao Nan took the lead in picking up the chopsticks, indicating that he was about to start charging.

"I'm going to start too!"

Yahiko and Nagato said together after Konan, their voices overlapping as they pounced towards the ramen in front of them.

All of a sudden.

All that was left of the cabin was the sound of sucking noodles and chewing.

All three were in a state of storm swallowing.

One is really hungry.

The other one is really delicious.

Yahiko Nagato and Konan haven't eaten such a delicious thing for a long, long, long time.

I can't even remember if I've ever eaten something so delicious.

In the past, it was not easy to fill your stomach.

Now you can not only eat grilled fish.

You can also eat ramen.

The feeling of satisfaction kept coming over me.

"Teacher, why did you buy so much?" Xiao Nan was almost finished, slowed down the speed of eating noodles, and couldn't help but stare at the pillar and ask.

"There are so many flavors, I'm not sure which one you like to eat, so I bought one of them all." Pillar said with a smile.

"Woo woo, teacher, you're so good......" Xiao Nan suddenly cried, I don't know if that sentence hit the weak part of her heart, this is not a sad cry, but a moving tear, tears drop by drop into the noodle bowl she is eating, but she is still sipping and continuing to inhale ramen.

“……”

Yahiko and Nagato suddenly fell silent, their eyes slightly moistened.

I don't know if it's because of Xiao Nan's emotions.

The two of them thought of those days in the past.

I think of the present day.

It can be said that there is a world of difference.

All these changes are because of the arrival of the teacher.

"Thank you, teacher."

"Teacher, it's good to have you!"

Yahiko and Nagato thanked the pillars at the same time, and the two of them felt a strong sense of happiness as they ate the ramen.

"If you like it, it's good to eat."

Looking at the appearance of the three little guys, Zhuma was also very touched in his heart.

Over time.

Soon.

The three of them finished eating.

There are many faces left.

After all, the three of them don't have a big appetite, or is this their hunger and the ramen too fragrant? I just ate a lot, a lot.

Normally.

One bowl per person.

Enough is enough.

Looking at the remaining ramen? Nodding slowly and walking to the table? Prepare to put these noodles away.

"Teacher? The ramen here is delicious, even though we couldn't finish all of them? But tomorrow we can still eat it, don't throw it away? That's a waste. "Xiao Nan watched the pillars cleaning up the ramen? Hurriedly stepped forward and said seriously.

"We don't have a refrigerator here, and you're still growing your body, so I'll give you something new tomorrow." Kanma didn't want to keep the ramen.

"Then ......" Xiao Nan still felt that it would be too wasteful if he threw it away, and his eyes rolled? Thinking a little? Then he thought of an idea and said, "Teacher, we can feed this food to the little wild cats and little wild dogs, the woods here are so big, there must be a lot of stray cats and dogs?" They must be hungry. ”

"That's right! Xiao Nan is right! We can feed stray cats and dogs! Yahiko nodded.

"Teacher, I just remembered? The little one is still in the cabin in the Land of Rain, and it hasn't eaten yet! Nagato's face changed with a brush? Just now this time was the excitement of the teacher's return and the temptation of nothing, and I forgot about the little thing in an instant.

"Little little ......" Pillar immediately thought of the little earth dog adopted by Nagato? If it wasn't for Nagato to bring it up? Has he forgotten? Then he said, "I'll go and bring it here." ”

Sou!

After Tsuruma finished speaking, he disappeared directly and instantly appeared in the cabin of the Land of Rain.

Perceptual diffusion.

Immediately felt the position of the little one.

At this moment.

Xiao Budian is sleeping under the slide on the second floor, very quiet, it can be said that there is no sense of existence.

The pillars immediately walked towards the second floor of the cabin.

As the footsteps between the pillars approached.

Xiao Budian sensed that someone was coming, and immediately raised his ears vigilantly, his eyelids moved slightly, and he opened his eyes.

After Xiao Budian opened his eyes, his eyes focused on Zhu Jian's body, and at the same time, his sensitive sense of smell smelled the unique smell of Zhu Jian's body.

"Woo~~~"

Xiao Budian jumped up suddenly, let out a coquettish sound, and then the four feet collided with the ground quickly, making a crackling sound, and hurriedly ran to the front of the pillar, and the tail shook quickly at an extremely exaggerated amplitude, as if to shake the tail off.

"Little one, you remember me."

Squatted down between the pillars, raised his hand and stroked back and forth on the little dog's head a few times, brushing down the hair, and suddenly made the little little one hum comfortably.

Sou!

Suddenly.

Before Xiao Budian could react.

The surrounding scene changed.

"Huh?"

Xiao Budian stared at the dog's eyes and looked around, his eyes flashing with confusion.

Something is wrong.

Isn't this the first floor?

Wasn't he on the second floor just now?

And......

It smells so good!

"Wow~~~"

Little Dots let out a cry of joy, and his tail wagged faster.

"It's small!"

After Nagato saw Xiao Budian, his face showed an apologetic expression, he and Xiao Budian depended on each other, this would have just finished eating noodles, but he forgot about Xiao Budian, he was still very guilty.

The next moment.

Nagato pounced on Xiao Budian's body, directly hugged Xiao Budian's neck, and hugged Xiao Budian tightly in his arms.

"Woo~"

Xiao Budian screamed in protest, his eyes completely falling on the unfinished ramen on the table, and his saliva was about to flow out.

"Little one, I've prepared food for you, come and taste it."

Nagato patted Little Dot's back, then walked with it towards the ramen position.

I can't wait.

Nagato took down a bowl of noodles and placed it on the ground, staring at Xiao Budian with his eyes.

"Woo~~~"

Xiao Budian happily inserted the dog's mouth into the basin and ate it quickly.

This ramen tastes great.

Even the little ones can't help but praise it.

……

After some time.

The little ones are also full.

Under the strong suggestion of the trio, Tsuruma used the Flying Thunder God Technique, and distributed the remaining uneaten ramen to various parts of Konoha Village, giving them to those stray cats and dogs.

After all the ramen noodles are distributed.

The pillars re-performed the Flying Thunder God Technique and returned to the cabin.

At this moment.

Three people and one dog, their bellies are all bulging, and they are lying on the ground, and no one is too lazy to move.

Even if I saw the pillar back.

None of them wanted to move.

It's too comfortable to eat.

The reason why I was able to eat so much this time is that the delicious ramen is a big part of the reason.

Part of the reason.

That is, their food is too monotonous during this time.

Except that eating fish is eating fish.

Now that I have changed my tricks, my appetite has suddenly increased.

"You're all done."

"It's nothing right now."

"Let me tell you about the next steps."

"Listen to me, if there are any additions or changes that need to be made, you can bring them up to me."

The pillars sat directly on the ground, sitting cross-legged next to the three of them, as if they were chatting, without any emotional changes in tone.

"First of all."

"We need to settle on a premise first."

"That is, for a period of time in the future, I will cultivate in Konoha Village."

"That's fine, right?"

After Tsuruma finished speaking, his gaze swept over the three people, waiting for their answers.

Xiao Budian lay on his back on the ground, and the dog's eyes squinted at the pillars, as if to say—it has nothing to do with me.

"I listen to both of them." Xiao Nan took the lead in expressing his opinion and continued: "I think it's okay to be anywhere, it's important to be with the two of them. ”

"I'll listen to Nagato." Yahiko glanced at Nagato, if it was something else, then he would definitely express his opinion, but this matter is related to Nagato, then he will give Nagato the right to express his opinion and let Nagato say it.

"Hmm."

Tsuruma nodded slowly, he could understand what Konan and Yahiko were thinking.

Xiao Nan gave the decision to Yahiko and Nagato, but in fact, she listened to Yahiko more.

That's not to say Nagato doesn't have a say.

It's that Nagato doesn't usually make any decisions at all.

This time, Nagato was brought with me to express his respect for Nagato's opinion.

It's the same with Yahiko.

As a qualified leader, it is not about turning the team into your own word, but about being able to understand everyone's thoughts and try your best to meet everyone's psychological demands.

This is the only way to convince people of this leader.

Forthwith.

Pillar's gaze fell on Nagato's body, and his eyes flashed with an inquiring look.

It's not just intercolumns.

Even Yahiko and Konan looked towards Nagato, waiting for Nagato to say the rest of the story.

"I think ......"

Nagato hesitated slightly, knowing that both Yahiko and Konan were respecting their opinions.

"For a while in the future, we can be in Konoha Village, instead of returning to the Land of Rain."

"I can't say this for a while."

"Let's make a decision together."

"It can be a month, two months, a year, or two years."

"My opinion is ......"

"After we leave Konoha Village, don't go back to the Land of Rain, we can go to Sand Hidden Village, we can also go to Iwain Village, we can also go to Cloud Hidden Village, or Fog Hidden Village......"

"We can stay in every village for a while."

"This not only allows us to feel the different customs and customs, experience the different environments of each village, but also understand the situation of people in different villages."

"How can we understand the pain of others without experiencing the suffering of others?"

"Since our path is to save the ninja world and bring peace to the ninja world."

"Then we have to understand ...... first"

"What the hell does the world want!"

Nagato uttered such a long series of words very calmly, fully expressing his opinion.

That's right.

That's it!

Only in this way can you be a truly qualified child of destiny.

Nagato is trying to change his own mind, he wants to stand on a higher peak, as they say, and thus look farther into the distance.

But.

Nagato now.

There is no way to stand on a higher place.

So......

Just go to as many places as you can, and use this method to see the vast world.

"I think that's okay."

Pillar nodded and said with a smile: "I didn't intend for you to settle in Konoha Village all the time, and this time I built a small wooden house here, which is also intended to provide you with a safe place to eat noodles." ”

"But."

"I didn't expect it to be like this."

"So the plan didn't change quickly."

"Since you are all accepted in Konoha Village now, then we have set up a short-term cultivation trip to Konoha Village."

"After the training in Konoha Village is over, we will decide what our next target will be."

Tsuruma nodded at the trio, he thought Nagato's proposal was still good.

Take a walk around every village,

Take a look at different countries.

It can greatly broaden your horizons, increase your knowledge, and lay the foundation for the unification of the ninja world in the future.

"Yes!"

Yahiko Nagato and Xiao Nan nodded at the same time, they still agreed very much with this cultivation method, and began to look forward to it in their hearts.

"Now that we're all on the same page, let's talk about the following."

The gaze of the pillar swept over the three of them, and finally landed on Yahiko's body.

"If you want to live in Konoha Village, you must have the identity of Konoha Village."

"Of course."

"It's not just Konoha Village."

"To live anywhere you have to have a corresponding identity."

"I'll help you get the identity of Konoha Village."

"But you have to accept your identity as a ninja in Konoha Village."

"This identity is not a restriction for you, but for your convenience, after you finish this period of cultivation, it is up to you to decide whether you still need this identity or not."

Pillar said something very important, it was like an ID card.

If you don't have a reasonable and legal identity, then you don't meet the rules in Konoha Village.

This is to be expelled.

This is a very troublesome thing for the identity of the pillars.

Correspondingly.

If these three people did not have an identity, they could only hide in the cabin, and they could not talk about experiencing life at all, and they would not have the opportunity to experience life at all.

Swish!

Yahiko and Konan's eyes were all focused on Nagato's body, and the meaning expressed by the two was very obvious.

As long as Nagato agreed.

And the matter was settled perfectly.

If Nagato doesn't agree.

In that case, it will be necessary to renegotiate other measures.

……

Nagato felt everyone's gaze and understood that this was everyone's respect for him, and he couldn't help but be very moved.

"I can accept that."

"Actually, you don't have to give me such special treatment."

"As a child of destiny."

"If I can't even accept this, how can I resist this name?"

Nagato said earnestly, wishing he could break through the difficulties instead of being wrapped in a protected carapace.

"I see."

"Then I'll arrange the identity of a Konoha ninja for you as soon as possible."

"And I'll introduce you to two people."

"One of them will join the Akatsuki organization."

"The other one will be your teacher for the next stage."

"You wait for me here."

Tsuruma took a deep look at Nagato and understood Nagato's thoughts.

If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.

Now Nagato has deeply accepted the title of Destiny's Child!

Sou!

The figure between the pillars suddenly flashed, and he directly cast the Flying Thunder God Technique and disappeared.

The next moment.

Between the pillars appeared in the pitch-black cave, but this forehead cave was no longer dark.

Swish!

With the advent of the intercolumns.

The gazes of Kazuma and Orochimaru fell on Tsuruma at the same time.

"Big brother, why are you here again......"

His face was filled with deep helplessness, he stared at the pillars, and walked towards the pillars, as if he wanted to make a move on the pillars.

"Did I disturb you?" Pillar asked.

"Or else!"

He walked up to the pillar, pushed the pillar back two steps, and said impatiently: "Big brother, I invented the Flying Thunder God technique, didn't I play with you like this, are you very happy to go in and out?" ”

"I'm here for business."

Pillar glanced at Kazuma, then stepped out with a backhand and grabbed Kazuma's wrist.

Airplanes!

A majestic chakra diffused across the body, and then the space changed, and the two appeared beside Orochimaru.

"Big brother, I have to admit that you have used the Flying Thunder God technique very well." He said with a helpless smile.

"Is there anything you need to take with you?" Pillar looked towards Orochimaru and added, "We're going to change places, maybe we won't come again." ”

"Yes!"

Orochimaru nodded immediately, and then walked quickly to the table, rolling up the scroll that Kazuma had taught him all these days.

It's like a mountain of scrolls.

Subsequently.

Orochimaru opened his mouth and spat out a snake.

The snake leaned in front of the scroll, opened its mouth, and swallowed the scrolls into its mouth one by one.

Soon.

These very valuable scrolls all entered the mouth of the snake in Orochimaru's mouth.

The snake closed its mouth and retracted back into Orochimaru's mouth.

Orochimaru also closed his mouth and returned to his normal state.

"I've taken everything I need to bring."

Orochimaru nodded at the pillar, his heart was also very respectful of the first Hokage, but he admired the second Hokage even more.

After this period of study and cultivation.

Orochimaru admired the second generation Hokage even more, and then he knew that no one's ninjutsu attainments could be compared to the second generation Hokage.

No one!

Orochimaru's feeling was very clear.

Even the third-generation Hokage, who is known as the Doctor of Ninjutsu, is not at the same level as the second-generation Hokage.

"Big brother, what are you going to do?"

His face was full of helplessness, and he stayed well in this cave.

I finally met a suitable successor.

I want to pass on all the essence of my life's research.

This person.

Not only can you learn his ninjutsu, but you can also carry his ninjutsu forward.

This is not at all comparable to monkeys.

Many of the ninjutsu invented by Kazuma were labeled as forbidden arts, but he didn't want them to become unattended at all, let alone let his years of hard work finally disappear.

Get that chance now.

Whether it is a technique recorded on the forbidden scroll, or a technique that is not recorded on the forbidden scroll, there are some techniques that have been invented and have not had time to record, as well as techniques that have not been developed, all of them are taught to the Great Snake Pill.

Of course.

It's a joyful process.

All the time.

Kazuma is lonely when it comes to studying ninjutsu, and no one can feel how he feels.

These things need to be borne by himself in silence.

Alone.

Lonesome.

Emptiness.

……

He devotes his finite life to infinite inventions and creations.

Never got much recognition.

No one can understand.

Early Konoha Village.

There is no one who has the wisdom of the door.

As a result, Kazuma doesn't even have a person to discuss in the development of ninjutsu.

It's different now.

After meeting Orochimaru, he not only taught Orochimaru ninjutsu, but also got valuable advice from Orochimaru's feedback.

Gradually.

Over time.

Orochimaru also slowly let go.

The two began to be able to discuss ninjutsu.

Until now.

Kazuma has already taken out the ninjutsu that has not yet been developed and developed it together with Orochimaru.

If you want to describe the relationship between the two now, there is one word that is most appropriate.

That's ......

Teacher and friend.

The two of them studied not only ninjutsu, but also political discussions on governing the village.

Such an argument is the same as ninjutsu.

From the beginning when Kazuma taught Orochimaru how to make Hokage, to the two discussing how to make Hokage.

The opinions of the two will be different, but the concepts and thinking are very compatible.

This made him seem to see another self, even better than himself.

That's why.

Kazuma gave Orochimaru high praise, and in his heart, he thought that Orochimaru was the most suitable candidate for the position of the fourth Hokage.

Now the two are discussing the ninjutsu that has not yet been successfully developed.

It was interrupted by the pillars again.

This is more atmospheric for Kazuma than being interrupted while he is exercising.

All of a sudden.

The door didn't give the pillar any good face at all.

"I'll take you to another place."

"You'll know when you change."

"Now this place."

"It's not in my plan anymore."

While the pillars were talking, he held the door with his left hand, and grabbed the Great Snake Pill with his right hand, preparing to use the Flying Thunder God technique to leave.

"The first Hokage-sama, wait a minute......"

However, at this moment, a deep voice sounded.

The sound is familiar.

It's the Black Absolute Being.

Forthwith.

Black bubbles appeared on the ground.

These bubbles emerged from the cracks in the ground and formed a black body.

"Black Jedi, why are you here?" The pillar looked at the black absolute suspiciously.

"First Hokage-sama, didn't you entrust me with an errand?" Hei Jue blinked, didn't say what it was, and then said, "I found it." ”

"Then why did you come here to inform me?" The pillars were even more puzzled.

"There is an enchantment around Konoha Village, I can't get in, I've been waiting for you to come out." Black Jedi explained.

"Good guys, if I don't come to find them, I'll stay in Konoha Village for a few months, and you're afraid you won't be able to see me." Pillar said with a smile.

"......" Black Jue didn't find it funny at all.

"You wait for me here, I'll come to you in a few days." The pillar said to the black judi, and then the chakra surged, and immediately cast the Flying Thunder God Technique, and left directly with the three of them.

“？？？？？”

Hei Jue looked at the three people who had left, guarding the empty cave with only dim light alone, and his head was full of question marks one after another.

Few days......

A few days......

There was a deep helplessness in the black orange pupils, and there was anger and amusement for what Zhu Jian had just said.

Hell knows when you'll be back!

Kuro Jue reluctantly walked to the seat where Masama and Orochimaru were just now, and sat down directly, silently waiting for the first Hokage-sama who didn't know when he would come back.
