Chapter 362: The Coming Crisis [Part II]
Before Naruto returned, Fugaku and the others could only wait for news anxiously because when Naruto met Orochimaru. And there is no second option for the sake of waiting. Let Fugaku and the others deeply realize how dangerous it will be to indulge Naruto too much. So much so that as early as when Naruto reported that he was safe, Fugaku and the others, who were in a slightly relaxed mood, unanimously decided that Naruto could no longer be allowed to do whatever he wanted.
In other words, if Naruto didn't surprise everyone when he came back this time, he would have brought Tsunade who had been away from the village for many years back to the village...... It is estimated that Fugaku and the others, who have palpitations, will not allow Naruto to leave the village for another half step, no matter what Naruto says. Even for fear that Naruto would leave quietly again, it was definitely no joke to deliberately arrange people to closely watch and supervise Naruto's every move twenty-four hours a day.
"Even if you have something you want to do, you have to tell us about it in advance. It is not allowed to sneak out alone without even saying hello like this time...... Do you know that the feeling of knowing that you are in danger, but having nothing to do but watch and stare dryly, freaks us out! β
It was precisely because of the return of Tsunade that Fugaku had been holding back his worried reprimands, and under Naruto's feat, he naturally couldn't blame anything more. And then quite annoyed and helpless, while reaching out his hand, kneading Naruto's fleshy little face. For fear that Ming would turn a deaf ear to his words, one ear in and one ear out, without the slightest memory, and in a moment, he pretended to be vicious and frightened.
"If there's another time, I'm sure you like it or not...... You will all enjoy a 'luxury gift package' brought by the dual combination of white eyes and writing wheel eyes, and all-weather 360Β° supervision without dead ends! β
Of course, what Fugaku didn't know was ...... Even if he hadn't deliberately scared or threatened anything, Naruto wouldn't have taken the last trip like he had done the previous two times...... At least, in the short term, it should be.
You know, because the main purpose of this trip - Yakushidou, one of the many future bosses, was successfully tamed by Naruto and brought back to the village with the persuasion and help of Nonoyu. For a while, Naruto didn't have any reason to go out again. And in conjunction with this journey, he clearly realized that the strange energy body left in his body could unconsciously have a huge impact on Naruto's mind and thinking, and could even influence Naruto's choice and judgment, so that what he did was contrary to his original intention. Naruto, who was already quite scared, suddenly became more and more cautious.
That's why it's not until we've thoroughly figured out where this strange energy comes from, how it works with its effects on the mind, and whether there's a better way to deal with it than just a seal as an emergency protective measure. Most of the people in Naruto will honestly take care of it, obediently stay in the Konoha Ninja Village, which seems to be relatively safe at the moment, and silently carry out their cultivation and development.
"Yes, I know, Uncle Fuyue......"
Thinking of this, Naruto didn't say anything to refute Fugaku, but instead stared at Fugaku's gaze, blinking innocently while responding with a milky voice.
"Well, a gift package or something, I won't bother you, uncle...... Well...... In the near future, if there are no accidents, I should stay in the village all the time, obediently study in the ninja school, and try to become a qualified shinobi! β
Between the words, Naruto, who had a normal complexion, did not care about Fugaku's behavior, and showed a noncommittal and obviously undeceived appearance of Naruto's clumsy defense that Naruto hastily made up to make Jiraiya "take the blame" for himself......
After all, Naruto's attempt to make Jiraiya "take the blame" was like passing the credit away when he exterminated Danzo in the first place...... It's not so much to explain to Fuyue and others who know the inside story. It's better to say that it's aimed at those in the village who don't have a door on their mouths, so they can't keep secrets. But they like to talk nonsense, and the ignorant villagers who chew people's tongues behind their backs have tailored a perfunctory reason with high credibility. lest this group of fools inadvertently leak information about Naruto to the enemies hiding in the shadows.
In this way, Fugaku, who knows Naruto's personality well, will not believe Naruto's clumsy justification. For Naruto, it was a trivial matter.
"Qualified under ...... Shinobi ...... Is it? β
Because I know that although Naruto doesn't play according to the routine, most of the things he has promised are because he will do what he says. It made Fuyue tense his heart after listening to Naruto's milky words that pretended to be well-behaved, and only then did he relax a little. Then he pondered what Naruto said, when it sounded like a naΓ―ve word that might not have been unusual to ordinary people. As Fugaku looked into Naruto's eyes, he couldn't help but become more and more weird.
"With what you kid does, don't say it's a lower forbearance...... Even if you are directly promoted to the upper ninja, it will definitely be more than enough......"
Exterminate the group, prepare for the entrance exam, subdue the spies in the enemy village, make friends with the people of Sand Hidden Village, and bring back Tsunade who has been away from the village for many years......
Each of these items, even if they are singled out individually, contains a great degree of difficulty, which is still not something that ordinary people can accomplish alone...... So much so that not to mention a child of Naruto's age, even if it is a real shinobi, the chance of succeeding is extremely slim.
It is precisely because of this that Naruto, who had created so many "miracles" at first glance, was thinking at this moment. It turned out to be an honest study.,Strive to get a shinobi title.,This seems too normal plan.γ Naturally, after making Fu Yue slightly stunned, under the huge contrast between the front and back of the conflict, he showed a strange look that couldn't cry or laugh.
"Shangnin? How could it be, I was just a fragile and helpless child...... If you don't even have the qualifications to become a lower ninja, how can you be promoted to upper ninja? β
And under empathy, just based on Fugaku's strange expression, he somewhat guessed the Naruto that the other party was thinking, and suddenly the smile in his eyes became more and more vigorous. then pretended to be aggrieved and pursed his mouth, and responded with an innocent teasing and teasing face. After a slight pause, he tried to suppress the smile in his heart before the conversation changed. As if he was talking to himself, he muttered in a low voice.
"What's more, although I have already decided, I will obediently stay in the village. And Grandma Tsunade has also chosen to return to ......"
"But that doesn't mean that staying in the village honestly for the rest of the day will be absolutely safe......
β¦β¦
Meanwhile......
Just as Naruto and his party returned to the Konoha Ninja Village and brought a huge surprise to the three generations of Hokage and others, Tsunade returned......
is also one of the five major ninja villages in the ninja world, and in the water shadow office of the foggy hidden village in the country of water, he is also quietly plotting something......
β¦β¦
Under the control of the high-pressure policy of the four generations of Mizukage, Goji Yakura, the country of fog, which has been shrouded in thick mist all the year round, is even more known as the "village of blood mist" because of its murderous atmosphere, which causes the air to be filled with a cruel and bloody atmosphere filled with the smell of blood.
Of course, this cruel and bloody method does not only refer to the brawls between the adult ninjas of the Fog Hidden Village...... No, no, just outside the window directly opposite Mizukage's office, a group of young children who should have enjoyed a carefree childhood. In a pit full of corpses, holding all kinds of sharp weapons, fighting desperately.
The reason for this fight is just a small thing that seems quite simple and easy in the Konoha Ninja Village - that is, from the cultivation training that began since childhood, and got a result called "graduation".
Obviously, in the bloody dogma of Fog Hidden Village, even children who should be innocent have not been spared. So much so that in the regulations of Fog Hidden Village, only the only person who survives on the edge of life and death, after gambling everything and fighting hard, can be qualified and be called a qualified ninja who has graduated!
And this is the scene that Goji Yakura, who is the fourth generation of water shadows, enjoys the most. It is also the reason why he deliberately chose the location of his office in this room facing the dirt pit and having a relatively wide view.
It's just that at this moment, Goji Yakura is obviously no longer able to lie on the chair leisurely and enjoy this blood-boiling desperate fight as in the past...... Instead, he sat upright, propped his hands on his desk, raised his head, and looked at the "uninvited guest" who had quietly infiltrated this place to avoid the layers of guards-in the Xiao organization, the auxiliary personnel responsible for reconnaissance, intelligence gathering, and information transmission.
"Oh? It's coming so soon...... It's a lot earlier than you said you had planned. β
After seeing the identity of the comer clearly, Goji Yakura's vigilance was obviously relaxed a lot. And then in the pursed lips, revealing a slightly immature child's voice. As the fourth generation of Mizukage, the wolfberry Yakura, not only did he blame the uninvited. On the contrary, his face was natural, as if he had known the person in front of him for a long time, and asked directly.
"When you came here, you weren't discovered by Nagato, were you?"
"Of course, rest assured...... Just as you planned, Nagato's kid is busy running around recruiting new members for the Akatsuki organization. I don't have the time to keep an eye on where I'm going. β
Using some kind of special ninjutsu, the body is from the wall, and only the upper body is exposed at the same time. The corners of the mouth of the white part of the body began to rise slightly. And then with a smile on his face, he replied unhappily.
"And, I've had a lot of luck lately...... Originally, I was thinking about what kind of excuse I should use to send away the Orochimaru who stayed in the Xiao Organization to avoid attracting the attention of that troublesome guy...... In the end, he was quite cooperative, and before I could say anything, he decided to go out alone. β
"Oh? Orochimaru went out alone? β
The response given in the mouth obviously aroused the deep interest of the wolfberry Yakura. So much so that he raised his eyebrows slightly, and slowly chewed and digested the intelligence information contained in the words. Almost at the moment when the last words fell, he asked again.
"Did he tell you what he was going to do?"
"Who knows? He wasn't kind enough to tell me directly...... Most of the time, it's for his shady and forbidden human experiments to capture new test subjects, right? β
As for Goji Yakura's question, it was obvious that he had expected it, and instead of hesitating for a moment, his words shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands nonchalantly, and quickly gave the response that the person in front of him wanted.
"Don't worry, Orochimaru has just joined the Jinxiao Organization not long ago, and he doesn't know anything about the situation in the organization...... It is unlikely that it will have the slightest impact on your Moon Eye plan. β
"Capture the test subject...... That's right, then I'm relieved. β
Although he never gave Orochimaru clear information on his whereabouts, Goji Yakura frowned slightly, looking not satisfied with this. But under the explanation of further reasonable speculation, I also relaxed a little after thinking about it. Then he tapped his fingers lightly to ease his emotions and continued pointedly.
"Hmph, I actually thought of recruiting Orochimaru into the organization, Nagato's kid is from the Konoha Ninja Village who took a fancy to Orochimaru, and wants to embarrass me...... Oh yes, and what happened to the thing that asked you to investigate? β
"Don't worry, since it is something you personally ordered, then of course I will do my best."
After hearing that the person in front of me mentioned the "work" that was specially arranged for him not long ago. The smile on Jean's face was slightly restrained in his words. Then he met the gaze of the wolfberry Yakura, and spread his hands a little helplessly.
"I've got it all for you, as you guessed...... That old guy in Tuanzang is dead. β
