Chapter 106: The Uchiha Quartet (1)
After separating from Ayane, Shiraishi returned to the Uchiha clan lands the way he came.
Along the way, he was thinking about the question Ayane had asked, how to explain to Ruri that he was about to leave Konoha.
Although he is not sure exactly when it is, Shiraishi knows that by next year at the latest, the Sand Hidden Village will launch an attack on the Fire Country, and when Konoha is too busy to take care of himself, then it will be the best time for him to leave Konoha.
If you miss this time, you won't have such a great opportunity again.
Therefore, when the war broke out, leaving Konoha was the path that Shiraishi would inevitably take.
No one could stop him from making this determination.
Ruri is very clear about her own affairs, and Shiraishi can be sure of this.
Whether it is the establishment of an organization, or the secret study of chakra and natural energy in a form that does not see the light, he has never revealed anything to the Konoha high-level, as long as he thinks about it a little, you can understand his ...... to the Konoha high-level No, it's not interested in the whole of Konoha at all.
Shiraishi didn't believe that Ruri couldn't see this, and when he studied the caged bird for Ayane, Ruri also knew about it, what does the caged bird mean, Ruri, who was born in a wealthy family, can understand the deep meaning better than him.
This matter is small and is a family affair of the Hyuga family, but if it is bigger, it will shake the interests of Konoha.
When it comes to the strategic-level blood inheritance limit of White Eye, even the top level of Konoha is unlikely to be indifferent, but will intervene and interfere with it with an extremely tough style.
Ruri, who knew about this, must have guessed a long time ago that he would leave Konoha one day.
So, what does she think about her leaving Konoha in her heart? Or are you waiting for yourself to confess in the past?
However, to be honest, Shiraishi didn't know how to confess this matter to Ruri.
It's just that since dating, when two people go shopping for a walk, they often hold hands side by side, and when they are alone at home, they have basically tried everything they can do except for sexual things. Hugs and passionate kisses are also accustomed to accepting each other.
In the future, getting married and having children together is also a normal thing in the eyes of outsiders.
- But there are still some things that I can't confess, probably because I am afraid that the other party's answer will not be what I expected.
is also because the glass is too important to himself, so he seems so hesitant.
In Baishi's heart, he couldn't help but have a slight entanglement.
"Ah, what a headache......"
While Shiraishi was struggling with these things, a head suddenly appeared on the floor, interrupting Shiraishi's thoughts.
The way General Tu appears is always elusive, and he doesn't know when he will come out and be scared.
The things he sent over this time were scrolls, and the volume of these scrolls ranged from large to small, and there were more than a dozen in total.
Interestingly, each scroll is stained with dust and half-aged, apparently antique goods of some age.
After delivering these scrolls, General Tu glanced at Shiraishi and quietly dived underground to play with himself.
For him, the entire Uchiha clan and even the underground space of Konoha are a place for him to play happily.
Ignoring General Tu's childlike behavior, Shiraishi picked up one of the scrolls he sent and opened it to see that the contents recorded in it were all related to sealing, and it was an important ancient sealing document in the Vortex Clan.
Among the remnants of the Uzumaki Clan who have been transported back to the Land of Demons, there is a clan elder who once had a high status among the Uzumaki Clan.
When the Vortex clan was wiped out, although most of the clansmen died in the battle, there were still many people who took advantage of the chaos and fled the battlefield with important sealing documents, and this clan elder was one of them.
In order to avoid the loss of these documents, the patriarch sealed them in a safe place, and he himself led his people to wander around to avoid losing them.
He knew very well that the Vortex clan was exterminated because they were coveted by other countries.
For the people of the Uzumaki Clan, the research documents that record all kinds of sealing techniques are more precious than their lives.
It was not only the glory of belonging to the Uzumaki clan, but also an important historical composition of their clan.
Forgetting the history of a clan is tantamount to betraying the clan.
Shiraishi roughly glanced at the scrolls, and found that there were various types of research materials on sealing.
The sealing technique involves all kinds of aspects, souls, bodies, tailed beasts, chakras, etc., everything imaginable, you can find relevant words in it.
"Is this also a document documenting sealing?"
At the end, Shiraishi opened one of the largest scrolls, many times larger than the rest and about the length of an arm.
After Shiraishi opened it, he looked at the contents recorded on it, only to realize that the words recorded in this huge scroll were different from the rest of the scrolls, and what was recorded on them were some finished sealing techniques, not sealing research literature.
At the back of each sealing technique is the name of a member of the Uzumaki clan, a brief account of their life, as well as when and where the technique was developed, and why it was developed.
One of these names appears several times - Uzumaki Ashina.
Shiraishi felt that the name was a little familiar, and quickly remembered which number one person it was.
In the past, when I was studying at a ninja school, when I looked at the historical events at the beginning of the establishment of Konoha Village, the name Uzumaki Ashina appeared.
The patriarch of the Uzumaki clan of the original Hokage Senju Pillar Era, he was known as the strongest sealing ninja in the ninja world at that time.
At that time, the Uzumaki clan established diplomatic relations with Konoha, and Uzumaki Ashina passed on the knowledge of sealing techniques that he had learned all his life to the ninjas of Konoha.
This kind of selfless behavior of the Grand Duke made the original Hokage Senjutsuma very touched at that time, saying that Konoha will always be a friend of the Uzumaki clan, and on the clothes of the Konoha high-level and Shangnin, the mark of the Uzumaki clan is engraved to show that the two sides will be friendly forever and will not turn their backs on each other.
Since then, Uzumaki Ashina has also been referred to by Konoha ninjas as as the 'Ancestor of Konoha Sealing'.
It can be said that without Uzumaki Ashina, it would be difficult for Konoha to improve his village's sealing system.
As far as Shiraishi knows, more than 90% of Konoha's sealing techniques originated from the Uzumaki clan and were brought about by Uzumaki Ashina.
Just thinking of the tragic situation of the Vortex clan now, Shiraishi expressed silent mourning and lamented the impermanence of the world.
I don't know if this patriarch of the Uzumaki clan would have been killed if he saw his family suffering from the extinction of the clan, Konoha didn't give any assistance, and I don't know if he would crawl out of the tomb and be angry to death later.
You must know that the country of the vortex where the Uzumaki clan is located is the neighboring country of the country of fire, and compared to the rest of the countries and the ninja village, the country of fire and Konoha are the closest places to the country of the vortex, and the Uzumaki clan was also exterminated under the noses of the country of fire and Konoha.
Among them, there may be some special reasons that I don't know.
This part of history is not a good thing for the Uzumaki clan, and Shiraishi is not interested in exposing people's shortcomings.
Anyway, the Vortex Clan is already a collective organization at this moment.
For the Vortex Clan's old Ken to contribute these sealing materials, Shiraishi didn't feel ashamed.
He also gave a lot, taking them in at great risk, giving them a stable living and educational environment for their young people, and opening them up to natural energy exercises.
"Gotta speed it up......"
Shiraishi put the scrolls away, muttered to himself, and began to walk towards the laboratory.
For the time being, I don't want to think about how to confess to Ruri about leaving Konoha because there is still a while to stay in Konoha and there is no need to rush for a while.
And the Vortex Clan's sealing technique data and literature is the work that he must overcome at present.
They must find the thing they need as soon as possible, and it is related to whether they can retreat smoothly and safely from Konoha without the slightest sloppiness.
◎
Konoha 42 years, December, winter.
Inadvertently, time always passes quickly, and when you think about it, Shiraishi suddenly realizes that it has been almost twelve years since he came to Konoha.
I have met a lot of people here, and I have experienced a lot of things, and I have become strong and mature in twelve years, and I have a clearer and more thorough understanding of the entire ninja world.
There was no action in Shayin Village, but Shiraishi didn't feel anxious.
A few months ago, Shayin Village had been secretly raising supplies and placed a huge order with the Aster Flower Company, and it stands to reason that the accumulation time of a few months should be enough for Shayin Village to mobilize for war, but the war did not happen.
In other words, ordinary people might feel anxious and want to find out if there was something wrong with the sand hide, but Shiraishi couldn't feel this kind of anxiety.
The more the village sought stability at such a time, the more relieved Shiraishi felt.
This shows that the three generations of Kazekage act steadily and have great plans, and they are worthy of his trusted 'comrades-in-arms'.
This time, the ninja war mobilized against Konoha may be much grander than I expected.
In the afternoon, when I arrived at the ninja school, I saw a girl about twelve years old standing at the door of the office.
She wore a thicker ninja outfit and wore a scarf around her neck to protect her from the cold.
"Shiraishi-senpai."
The other party trotted over and respectfully addressed Shiraishi.
The girl was silent.
Shiraishi remembers that she had some kinship with Tsunade's fallen boyfriend, Shinobu Kato, and after Kato's death, Tsunade took her to his side to raise her.
Although Shizune has long graduated from school, Shiraishi can still see her in the school often.
Now the position is not big or small, and he is also an assistant by Tsunade's side.
He has a good talent in medical ninjutsu, and he is expected to become one of the backbone figures in the Konoha medical force in the future.
"Why, are you the only one here? Tsunade-sensei won't run away to drink again, will he? Or in a casino? ”
Shiraishi smiled helplessly.
The three ninja can be said to be quite a distinctive combination.
Shiraishi doesn't know very well about Orochimaru's affairs, but he often sees Jiraiya at the Konoha Bathhouse, which makes chickens and dogs jump.
Although he is a powerful ninja whose strength is worthy of recognition, he is simply a pervert in terms of lust.
Tsunade is a gambler, and every time he gambles, he will lose, and once he wins, something bad will happen. And he likes to drink, often to the point where he is drunk and can't walk.
"That's not the case, Shiraishi-senpai. Just now, a shadow department came over and asked Tsunade-sama to go to the Hokage Building, and it seems that the third generation of Lord Tsunade-sama has something to discuss. ”
Shizune shook her head and replied.
"That's right."
Shiraishi thought about it on the spot.
"Well, Tsunade-sama explained before leaving, let Shiraishi-senpai replace you in the class first, and she will come back as soon as possible, this is what I want to explain today."
Mute handed over a notebook that Tsunade had prepared in advance.
After Shiraishi took it, he took a cursory look at it, it wasn't very difficult, and with the 'level' he showed in Konoha, it wouldn't attract attention at all.
"So, please advise, Shiraishi-senpai, and I'll be your assistant until Tsunade-sama returns."
Shizune smiled and bowed seriously to Shiraishi.
"Where, this sentence should be me, your talent in medical ninjutsu is much better than mine."
Shiraishi scratched his head, this sentence is not a hypocritical compliment, but Shizune does have the talent to become an excellent medical ninja, and there is a top medical ninja like Tsunade one-on-one individual tutoring, she will definitely shine in the medical field in the future.
"Tsunade-sama said that Shiraishi-sama's foundation is very strong, and it is better than Tsunade-sama."
Shizune looked at Shiraishi with respectful gaze.
She knew that with Tsunade's level of medical ninjutsu, she didn't need any teaching assistants at all, but she took the initiative to ask Shiraishi to be her assistant, which undoubtedly proved that Shiraishi was outstanding in some aspects.
In terms of teaching the theoretical knowledge of medical ninjutsu, Shiraishi has indeed given Tsunade a lot of help in recent years, and has trained many medical ninjas with Tsunade.
"I just happen to have a little bit of a knack for memorization."
Shiraishi said modestly.
◎
After the lab class, Shiraishi returns to the office with Mute and finds Tsunade already sitting there.
Seeing the two of them coming in, he put down the teacup in his hand and smiled: "You two have worked hard today." ”
"It's okay with this kind of thing, when did you come back?"
Shiraishi asked first.
"Just now. Seeing that class was about to end, I didn't go to class. ”
"You left suddenly, is there any important arrangement on Hokage-sama's side?"
Shiraishi inquired further.
Shizune also looked curious, curious to know what happened to the three generations of Hokage looking for Tsunade.
Seeing the curious expressions of the two, Tsunade sighed helplessly and said, "It's not a big deal, it's about the country of ghosts." ”
"The land of ghosts?"
Mute's expression grew in surprise.
Shiraishi also raised his eyebrows, and his puzzled expression naturally revealed.
"The Aster Flower Pharmaceutical Company is willing to share some of their company's drug information with us Konoha in exchange for this, and they hope to send young people to Konoha to learn medical ninjutsu."
"I don't think it's anything unusual."
Mute tilted his head and said this.
As a medical ninja born and raised in Konoha, Shizune can always feel that in recent years, Konoha has had a relatively complete framework for medical ninjas, and it can be said that he is unique in the ninja world.
The official company of the neutral country of Oni no Nation has sent their people to Konoha to learn advanced and complete medical ninjutsu in exchange for drug information, and this kind of transaction is a normal business cooperation no matter how you look at it.
"It's not unusual, if it were the rest of the country and the ninja village that made such a request, I wouldn't hesitate to refuse. However, the country of ghosts is a neutral country, and it has never participated in the ninja war, and the drug research ability of the Shion Flower Company, after folk feedback, I have also properly studied some, which is indeed a good quid pro quo. ”
Tsunade glanced down at the document on the table, which was part of the Aster Flower Company's drug information.
It's just a part of it, and it also makes Tsunade feel that in the Aster Flower Company, there are very clever medical ninjas, and they have an extraordinary talent in drug development.
This precious drug information cannot be measured with money.
What is borne above is a fresh life.
With these things, new drugs can be concocted, which can reduce a lot of the medical stress of Konoha.
Sharing such valuable medicinal information with Konoha turned out to be as simple as asking Konoha to train a group of medical ninjas for them......
Is it because there is no complete medical system structure inside?
Thinking about it like this, Tsunade was much more relieved.
In today's ninja world, Konoha is the only ninja village with a complete medical system.
The Aster Flower Company has its own uniqueness in medicine, but in terms of comprehensiveness, Konoha is stronger, Konoha has no obvious shortcomings and defects, and the medical development is average and stable, which is indeed suitable for cultivating medical ninjas.
"Is Tsunade-sensei ready to say yes?"
Shiraishi heard that Tsunade's mouth was a little loose, and he tentatively touched it.
In this regard, Tsunade is the most authoritative person in Konoha.
When it comes to the medical industry, even the third generation of Hokage has to give her concessions.
As long as Tsunade agrees, the rest of the matter will fall into place.
Only the professionals in the same company can understand how valuable the drug information he asked the Aster Flower Company to hand over to Konoha is.
"I can't find a reason to say no. In this way, it's almost the end of the semester now, and in April next year, let the people of the Oni Country come to Konoha to learn medical ninjutsu. So before that, I'm going to open another medical ninja training class in the school, Shiraishi, you can be the instructor of that class and teach those students from the land of ghosts. ”
Tsunade undoubtedly places great trust in Shiraishi.
“……”
Shiraishi didn't know how to answer for a while.
"Why, don't you want to?"
“…… No, it's just that I didn't expect Tsunade-sensei to have so much confidence in me. ”
Shiraishi felt ashamed.
"Don't be nervous, with your ability, I believe you can do your best and will not disappoint me."
Tsunade waved his hand, smiling and comforting.
I'm sorry, Tsunade-sensei, but I'm going to let you down in this matter. Shiraishi sighed in his heart.
Because Shiraishi is not sure, whether he will stay in Konoha in April next year.
War can break out at any time, maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow.
Now, every minute and every second, Sand Hide may have mobilized a large number of ninjas to attack here in the Fire Country.
Leaving the ninja school and letting the organization send personnel to Konoha to learn medical ninjutsu is just a small episode, and since Tsunade is relieved, it proves that the dust has settled on this matter, and there is no need to worry about it anymore.
When I was about to walk to the place of residence, at the door, an old man suddenly appeared here, wearing a black kimono in casual clothes, and his body was a little rickety.
There was also an adult man beside him, and it was not difficult to see that the mature man next to him had the strength to endure and was obviously the old man's bodyguard.
On both of them, there are Uchiha clan fan marks.
Shiraishi walked over quietly, and was about to ask questions, when the old man had already turned around, revealing an old but kind smile.
"You're Ruri's boyfriend."
He spoke in the affirmative.
"Yes. Pls are you ......"
Shiraishi was slightly reserved.
"I'm Uchiha Quartet, and I've taught Ruri some ninja skills, so I'm half of her teacher. Since you are Liuli's lover, just call me Elder Sifang like her, and you don't need to see outside. ”
"Okay, Elder Quartet, then I'll be disrespectful. But unfortunately, Ruri is not at home now. Would you like to come in, sit, have a cup of tea and go? ”
Shiraishi coped carefully.
The slightly hot and approving gaze made Shiraishi a little unbearable.
I always feel that this Uchiha clan elder is too enthusiastic about himself.
Is it because of the relationship between the glass? Love me, love my dog?
"Then nagging."
Uchiha's square face was full of wrinkles, but his smile became more and more kind, and he was completely like a kind and kind old grandfather.
