It's a peaceful life.

After retiring from his career as a front-line mission, and entering a ninja school, Shiraishi felt as if he was living a retirement life that only old people have.

Every day, except for going to work at the ninja school at 3 p.m. on time, the rest of the time is at your own disposal.

Even if he goes to work in the hospital, he doesn't work very long every time, so it can be said that Shiraishi's current life is something that many Konoha ninjas can't envy.

Research, go for a walk, go to work, go home on time to rest.

Occasionally, I go shopping with Ruri, but the number of times I've seen Ayane is only a handful.

After the three of them quit the Shuomao team, they had their own work to complete.

Liuli needs to work in the garrison, responsible for the security of the village, and solve civil disputes in the village.

Because Ayane has become a ninja, and she was considered by the elders of the Hyuga high-level at a very early stage, she is also in an important position in the Hyuga clan at this moment.

After all, becoming the guardian of the future patriarch of the Hyuga clan is not something that an ordinary Hyuga ninja can serve.

It can be seen that Ayane's status in the Hyuga clan is now much higher than that of ordinary Hyuga ninjas.

There is also a serious hierarchical gap between the families and the families.

Based on this situation, since quitting the Shuo Mao team, Shiraishi has only seen Ayane outside once, and after meeting, he will not talk for more than five minutes.

In secret, of course, in secret, keeping in touch and exchanging information.

But...... At present, Shiraishi is undoubtedly most concerned about the recent series of secret measures of the Konoha high-level -

Mu Dun research experiment!

◎

"What kind of plan are those people at the top of Konoha plotting?"

This is exactly what the white stone hurts.

On the surface, Shiraishi was not anxious about this, according to the usual rhythm, as a qualified Konoha ninja living in the village, but in his heart, he was vigilant against the high-level Mu Dun research experiments.

Baishi, who had never underestimated these high-level positions, raised the danger level of these high-level levels again to a higher level in his heart.

Bai Shi, who had not tested the power of Mu Dun with his own eyes, had witnessed the terrifying power of the tailed beast when it went berserk.

And that was just the power of a tail bursting out, regardless of whether it was in a complete state at that time, among the tailed beasts, the strongest tailed beast was the nine-tailed.

was once suppressed by the original Hokage's Mu Dun, which shows the extraordinaryness of Mu Dun.

At that time, a spherical chakra was sprayed out, and the terrifying power of the explosion really startled Shiraishi.

For a while, he had doubts about the ninja profession.

Mu Dun, who can suppress the strongest tailed beast, can't be taken too lightly, even if it may not have the level of the original Hokage.

According to the insect man, that strange white creature has an extremely strong stealth ability, and if it is not for the sensing ability of natural energy, it is difficult to find the traces of this strange creature.

If the high-level of Konoha really used Mu Dun to research such a special stealth class, then the purpose is self-evident, whether it is to search for information on enemy ninjas or to monitor the interior of the village, the observation intensity is several levels higher than that of the dark department, which is difficult to guard.

Shiraishi wasn't too worried about the discovery of the research here, and the stealth ability of this strange creature could be sensed by natural energy.

No matter how troublesome things are known, as long as you take precautions, there is nothing to be afraid of.

The trouble is the unknown.

How many such stealth creatures are there in the hands of the Konoha higher-ups?

And where are these creatures arranged?

What unknown plans are they plotting?

Has the Uchiha clan been infiltrated by the other party?

All of this is unknown.

Shiraishi has absolute confidence in his own safety, and it is based on the premise that the top management of Konoha has made a serious mistake in his own intelligence, and he has the initiative no matter what, which is the key to victory.

But this kind of unknown, Konoha high-level now has this kind of trump card in their hands.

The unknown and the unknown, if a conflict suddenly erupts, things can be troublesome.

"What a headache......

How to break the game, or know what the Konoha higher-ups are plotting, it will not be so passive.

How to regain the initiative in one's own hands, one must come up with a foolproof strategy.

In the face of a huge military institution like Ninja Village, there is no chance of winning head-on.

Just when Shiraishi was worried about this, Ruri had already walked down the corridor of the underground laboratory.

"When did you come back?"

"Just now."

"Is it already this time?"

Shiraishi was unaware of the passage of time.

Ruri works at nine o'clock in the morning and ends at seven o'clock in the evening.

There will be two days off a week, so you can use it to move around freely and do what you love.

"You shouldn't have been here to worry about the plans of the higher-ups, right?"

"Well, after all, it is linked to Mu Dun, and it can also analyze ingredients similar to those of tailed beasts. This cannot be left unguarded...... Why, you don't seem to be worried at all? ”

Only then did Shiraishi notice that there was no worry on Liuli's face, and he was slightly surprised.

You must know that the relationship between some high-ranking people and the Uchiha is extremely bad, especially the root leader of the radical faction, Shimura Danzo.

If it weren't for the three generations of Hokage to reconcile from it, the roots would not have been so honest and unmoved in the past few years.

"Why should I worry about this? As long as we have the strength to suppress all conspiracies and tricks, it is a complete waste of time and energy to think of countermeasures or anything. With this kind of time and energy, it is better to use it to improve your strength. ”

“……”

It's really a consistent powerist thinking.

Thinking about it like this, Shiraishi felt as if he was worried about Ruri in vain.

"You are too obsessed with the so-called truth, you were like this in the past, and you must thoroughly understand the so-called truth."

"It is my job to search for the truth."

Shiraishi gives the answer.

"You're obviously insecure."

Ruri has a look of 'don't try to lie to me', and her eyes seem to be able to understand the essence of everything.

"Since you understand this, why do you want to say it, it's very hurtful."

Shiraishi pulled out a smile helplessly.

Just as he knows everything about Ruri, Ruri also knows everything about him.

It's impossible to hide this trick from the other party.

"Because it's rare to see you in this kind of tangled way, it's funny."

Ruri smiled.

"You...... Could it be that Ayane became with a transformation technique? ”

Shiraishi hesitated for a moment, asking this somewhat rude question.

Sure enough, after listening to Baishi's words, Liuli's pitch-black pupils suddenly stared at Baishi, and he didn't answer him, but the condensed air was slowly flowing around.

It seems to be genuine.

Ayane doesn't have such a powerful and intimidating aura.

"How's the progress of the Immortal Arts?"

Ruri asked about the topic she was most concerned about.

"In a recent experiment, the success rate of synthetic immortal chakra has steadily increased to more than 80 percent, and if I am given another half a year to a year or so, it can be officially put into use."

Shiraishi gives a more conservative time.

Liuli nodded, half a year to a year, this time can be waited for.

Anyway, she has a lot of free time now, and as one of the detachment leaders in the garrison, most of the time she just leaves the work to her subordinates, and occasionally encounters problems that will make her the detachment leader come forward to settle it.

After Ruri left, Shiraishi fell into deep thought.

Indeed, as Ruri said, instead of guessing what the top leaders of Konoha are going to do here, improving their strength will never lose money.

"But no matter how much I improve myself in battle, I can't surpass Ruri, her growth speed is too abnormal, and my 'strength' is not reflected in ...... battle."

Abandon all the time for cultivation and spend all your time on research, except for work and rest. This is the solution that Shiraishi can think of.

It's not just Ruri, but even Ayane's strength is growing faster than herself.

Although his cultivation talent is not bad, compared to Ruri and Ayane, the gap is negligible.

But the two of them have a bloodline ability bonus, and the writing wheel eye and the white eye are the premier blood inheritance limit in the ninja world.

This is an advantage that Shiraishi does not have.

And the power of the Blood Inheritance Limit, as the holder continues to develop, the power becomes more and more terrifying.

Not to mention, the two of them are geniuses in their own right.

Giving up your cultivation time and devoting all your energy to research is also a way to improve your 'strength'.

It's your job to create a 'weapon', and it's Ruri and Ayane's job to fight with a weapon.

Shiraishi suddenly had a feeling of clearing the clouds and seeing the truth.

Everyone is born in the world, and they are not perfect.

Therefore, it is necessary for others to make up for their own shortcomings and advance and retreat together.

Compared to fighting, he is better at research, and he has cognition and thoughts that surpass the ninja era, and this is where he is stronger than Ruri and Ayane.

Therefore, there is no need for me to strive for excellence in battle now, that is not the path I should choose.

Thinking about it this way, the secret plan of Konoha high-level is not an important matter.

The important thing is to improve yourself.

◎

The weather is already warmer in May.

The creature called 'White Jedi' has crept into Konoha to sneak in.

Compared to other villages, Konoha has the highest difficulty in infiltrating these ninja villages.

The perceptual barrier that surrounds the entire village can see through the white eyes of entities, and when Bai Jue sneaks in, he is very careful in what he does.

There were three people who came in, and the other two Bai Jue were in charge of monitoring outside Konoha Village.

The three white judie who infiltrated the interior of Konoha Village, their goal is also very clear, to find out whether one of the white judi who disappeared before is related to the high-level of Konoha and then collect intelligence in the Uchiha clan to find the so-called 'spokesperson'.

As for what kind of personality the 'spokesperson' needs, talent requirements, etc., the white absolute knows that it is not clear, and everything needs to be decided by their 'Madara-sama'.

But the age of the 'spokesperson' must not be too big, preferably between a few years old and a teenager, so that it is easy to control.

Therefore, most of the Uchiha people who were monitored by them were some young ninjas in their teens, or children who attended ninja schools.

One is in charge of investigating the high-level, one is in charge of the ninja school, and the other is lurking in the Uchiha clan, and the three white Jedi who sneak inside Konoha have a very clear division of labor.

They have long been handy at gathering intelligence, even if this is the most difficult ninja village to penetrate, as long as they are given a certain amount of time, they can successfully operate the intelligence channel.

The white absolute who is in charge of the Uchiha clan land, swims underground as if no one is around.

He was like a ghost that didn't exist, and no one had noticed his actions so far.

Even the Uchiha clan would not be able to find his traces.

This white man was complacent.

Although their weak combat ability is a flaw in most of the White Jediers, each of them has excellent stealth ability, and only a very small number of special perception ninjas can detect their existence.

According to the characteristics of the Uchiha clan, there are no sentient ninjas in this clan at all.

Therefore, listening to the Uchiha's information was the easiest task in his eyes.

It seems that I will soon be able to make a deal with Madara-sama. This Bai Jue was in a very happy mood.

Just as he was about to move on, the sudden chill of being peeped into by the gaze of some creature made his white body move in the soil.

He turned his head, almost screaming in fright.

A pair of black eyes, suddenly squeezed out of the soil layer beside him, stared at him without warning.

What is this?

As soon as this thought came to Bai Jue's mind, and then the soil around him began to squirm, shrink, and become extremely soft, like a swamp, Bai Jue felt the oppression of suffocation, and then lost consciousness.

Everything happened very suddenly, causing this Bai Jue to not even see what the enemy looked like clearly.

- When he woke up, Bai Jue found himself sitting on a stone chair with restraint props strapped to his body.

This is a secret room, and the light emitted by the light is close to dim yellow, barely illuminating the room.

In front of him stood a man and a woman, both fifteen or sixteen years old.

The woman was dressed in a black tight-fitting ninja suit, with an indifferent expression, and just standing there gave him a strong sense of oppression.

The man was wearing a white coat and roaming around his body with a strange gaze that made him feel cold.

Bai Jue, who was stared at by such strange eyes, couldn't help but tremble a little.

Although he felt that the strength was stronger than that girl, he didn't know why, the danger level was that this boy was even better.

This man and woman are Shiraishi and Ruri.

"Hello, hello."

Bai Jue tried his best to use exaggerated funny art to adjust the cold atmosphere of the scene, and by the way, reduce the tension in his heart.

Regarding Bai Jue's exaggerated and deliberately funny behavior, Bai Shi and Liuli ignored it.

After the atmosphere cooled down, Shiraishi turned his head and said to Ruri:

"Now that I've caught it alive this time, I'm going to use the spirit technique to possess this guy's spiritual world and get his information from the inside, and my body will be entrusted to you."

Seeing Liuli nodding seriously, Bai Shi immediately sealed his hands, closed his eyes, and then his body burst into light, and an illusory human body that looked exactly like Bai Shi floated in mid-air.

This illusory human body is Shiraishi's soul.

After his soul came out, Bai Shi ignored Bai Jue's struggling body, and rushed directly towards Bai Jue's body, overlapping with his body and connecting with Bai Jue's spiritual world.

Bai Jue, who was sitting on the stone chair, struggled more violently, and cold sweat continued to flow from his face.

But no matter how much he struggled, he couldn't ask Shiraishi's soul to possess him, and it was a useless struggle to stop Shiraishi from exploring his spiritual world.

Wandering in the spirit world of Bai Jue, Shiraishi found that his soul had entered a completely empty space, and he couldn't help but show a look of astonishment.

When he used the art of spiritualization to explore the spiritual world of others in the past, the picture presented in front of him was by no means like this.

Eventually, there will be some memories that remain.

But...... This empty spiritual world, doesn't this guy have anything in his head?

How could there be such strange creatures?

"Isn't his memory here, pinned on other 'objects'......"

It's a bit incredible, but it seems like the only answer.

Even animals without intelligence have their own spiritual world, and their spiritual world is not blank.

Therefore, Shiraishi can conclude that the memories that lead to the roots of this white creature are sealed somewhere else.

Shiraishi was about to leave, when suddenly, in the empty spiritual world, a huge scarlet pupil suddenly appeared.

A powerful chakra that Shiraishi had never felt before rushed towards him.

Cold, dark.

It was as if he had become a flat boat in a tsunami, and he was in danger of capsizing at any time.

"Writing Wheel Eyes...... How can it be!? ”

Shiraishi was the first to be shocked.

These huge scarlet pupils, as well as the symbolic three black magatamas, are obviously enlarged versions of the writing wheel eyes.

The dark and cursed aura of pupil power is stronger than the sense of oppression brought to him by the glass.

- Outside, Bai Jue suddenly roared loudly, his face was distorted and hideous, and countless bloodshots were cracked in his eyeballs, as if they could explode at any time.

Shiraishi's illusory spirit quickly detached from the white absolute body and returned to his own body.

When he returned to his body, his face was already covered with cold sweat, looking at Bai Jue, who was screaming wildly, standing there with a pale face, without saying a word.

Finally, the roar stopped abruptly, and Bai Jue kept his mouth open to the fullest, sitting motionless on the stone chair, his eyes rolling upwards to the limit, and he was already dead.

"What's wrong?"

Ruri didn't know what Shiraishi had just experienced, and with a concern in her tone, she helped him aside and sat down.

After sitting down, Shiraishi's fingers on the armrest were trembling slightly, and he looked frightened.

For a long time, his voice was hoarse, and he struggled to spit out a sentence from his mouth:

"Writing Wheel Eye ......"

"Writing wheels?"

"The pupil power of the writing wheel is more powerful than you...... What a monster ......."

At this point, Shiraishi slowly closed his eyes, as if he had not recovered from his previous horror.

Hearing Shiraishi say these key information, Ruri's brows furrowed together.

"You're saying that in this guy's spiritual world, you encountered the illusion of writing wheels?"

"Yes, the other party's writing wheel eye illusion is very strong, at least I have never seen such a terrible writing wheel eye......"

Shiraishi reopened his eyes, glanced at the glass, nodded and said.

Naturally, his words also include Liuli.

The other party's use of the writing wheel eye is much higher than that of the glass.

"I know the strength of those people very well, my pupil power can't be said to be the strongest Uchiha today, but the writing wheel eyes that can match me are definitely no more than two pairs."

"But that's the case, the person who set up the Writing Wheel Eye Illusion in this guy's spiritual world has a pupil power far above you."

Shiraishi doesn't want to hurt Ruri's self-confidence, but that's the truth.

Hearing Shiraishi's repeated affirmation of this, Ruri also knew that he was making trouble unreasonably, so he calmed down and thought about it.

But no matter how you think about it, you can't guess who else in the current Uchiha clan can surpass her with the pupil power of the writing wheel.

"It seems that I guessed wrong from the beginning, this level of protection measures is not only about Mu Dun and Tailed Beasts, but also involving Sharingan, and the appearance of this guy is likely to have nothing to do with the high-level of the village...... There is someone else behind the scenes. ”

Shiraishi exhaled, his eyes full of solemnity.

Be careful in your actions in the future.

The Land of Rain is to be designated as a forbidden area for the time being, so as to avoid re-contact with the people of Xiao.

He didn't want to be targeted by an unknown enemy because of this kind of thing.

◎

"Madara-sama, the Hakuju, who was exploring the Uchiha clan's land, is missing."

In the dim huge karst cave, a white absolute emerged from the ground and immediately reported to the old man sitting on a wooden chair.

"I know, the illusion I set in his mind was triggered, and he was clearly caught."

The old man's eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Won't our intelligence be leaked?"

Bai Jue was a little worried.

"No, the moment the illusion is triggered, another suicide spell will be chained, and that white absolute is already dead."

The old man said unhurriedly.

"It's worthy of Madara-sama, it's a pity that Bai Jue."

Bai Jue smiled, not grieving at all for the death of that Bai Jue.

Because the purpose of their existence is to serve as a tool for the profit of their masters.

"Draw the manpower back from Konoha, I didn't expect that after I left, such an excellent ninja would appear in the clan, and I can't act rashly."

The old man's face was full of regret.

"Do you want to give up spying on the Uchiha like this?"

"It's not about giving up. Wait until the limelight passes, and then go to Pai Bai Jue to give it a try. Or when the ninja war starts again, it will be a good time. ”

After all, among his clan, there are already people who can detect the traces of Bai Jue, no matter what method is used, it means that he can't easily get all the information about the current Uchiha clan in his hands and carefully screen the 'spokesperson' who meets his heart.

Seeing that the old man was in a bad mood, Bai Jue also got into the soil and disappeared in front of the old man.
