The new residence is still a gorgeous two-story villa, the courtyard area is also quite large, and there is also a small training ground, as long as you don't use a wide range of ninjutsu, it is still enough to play the physical arts.

The path in the courtyard is carefully designed with carved marble, and there is also a lawn section covered with snow.

In the courtyard near the gate, there is a very luxurious pet house, also a two-story house, like a cat not a cat, like a beast not a beast of the dark young beast lazily lying at the door of the pet house, poking out of the head, basking in the warm sun.

After a while, a mouthless black-haired girl wearing a shrine maiden costume walked out of the villa, the color of her eyes changed from the pupil to the whites of her eyes and spread into ripples, she carried the lunch box in her hand, walked in front of the pet house young beast, put the lunch box down, and let it eat it quickly.

The young beast slowly got up from the ground, sniffed a few sips on the hardcover lunch box with its nose, and smelled the incomparably delicious aroma of food.

"Sister Tianyu, your cooking skills have grown again."

The young beast called the name of the shrine maiden.

This witch girl is none other than Shiraishi's wind clone, the Heavenly Feather Maiden.

A special soul clone that can freely control the wind and practice immortal arts, although it is a clone, it also has its own independent personality. Since birth, she has been set without a mouth, a heart, and an expression.

The Tianyu girl affectionately stroked the soft hair on the young beast's body, and her movements were quite skillful.

The young beast is also one of Shiraishi's soul clones, the thunder beast Thunder Ming Pill who controls thunder and immortal arts.

It's not just a calamity beast that can control thunder and lightning, but with sheer speed ability, even the upper shinobi can't guard against its surprise attack.

did not refuse Tianyu Nu's touch to herself, which is the proof of the deep love between sister and brother.

Just as Lei Mingmaru was eating fried chicken legs, Shiraishi walked out of the villa, closed the door, leaned against the door panel, and exhaled deeply.

"Yo, Father."

Thunder Pill beckoned his claws.

Tianyu Nu also bowed slightly.

Shiraishi walked over, and before he could speak, Thunder Ming Pill had already spoken again, "Have you been kicked out again?" ”

"No, it's too stuffy inside the house, I'll come out and take a breath."

Shiraishi argued.

"Human beings will always have all kinds of disputes because of all kinds of unsatisfied desires. This is true for both fathers and mothers. After all, wasn't it caused by my father's heart? ”

Thunder Ming Pill said insightfully.

"Are you idle here and have nothing to do?"

Shiraishi frowned.

"No, I'm just telling the truth. Artificial beings like us do not have these superfluous desires, and as long as there is a comfortable environment, delicious food is easily satisfied. ”

Thunder Pill said very proudly.

"Looks like I'm going to have to install a function for you to breed offspring next time."

"But my soul was transformed from my father's soul fragments, right? If you want to breed offspring, what kind of female animal should you find to breed? I think cats are a little better, elegant and dignified. ”

Thundering Pill analyzed it matter-of-factly.

“…… Tomorrow I will go to the construction site to move bricks. ”

“…… Be. ”

Thunder Ming Pill sighed, no way, who called the other party his father, the great creator?

The Creator is infallible. If there is a mistake, it must be the mistake of a stupid son or a stupid daughter.

Evil dictator.

But if you think about it carefully, because you can't stand the dispute between the two women in the family, you can only bully the doppelganger made from the fragments of your soul, and as a created thing, Thunder Ming Maru, instead has infinite pity for the creator Shiraishi himself.

What a sad and pitiful father.

Then, when Thunderingmaru put his paw into the lunch box again, he found that another fried chicken leg was missing and was being eaten by Shiraishi in his mouth.

"Father, that's my fried chicken thigh."

This is a nutritious lunch that Sister Tianyu has worked so hard to prepare for it.

Is it really reasonable for a father to rob his child of food?

What about shame?

"Ahh Shouldn't you be grateful to Zero for thanking me? ”

"Father, have you been squeezed by your mothers to the point where you need to live by robbing your pets of food?"

"You should also go to the construction site the day after tomorrow, there is a need for your help."

"Father, I am so touched by your magnanimity."

"Now I know it's too late for me to have a big heart."

Shiraishi snorted softly and finished the chicken thighs, throwing the chicken bones into the trash can next to him.

Then he continued to put his hand into Thundering Maru's lunch box.

Thunder Pill sighed helplessly.

Forget it, as a son, it is also appropriate to help his father once in a while.

In the dead of night.

Thunder Ming Pill was still lying at the door of the pet house as always, and there were snacks and hot drinks prepared for him by the Tianyu Girl next to him as a supper.

Light snow slowly fell in the sky, the moon hung high in the sky, and the clarity of the night was truly beautiful.

"It's a beautiful night."

While some things happen during the day that are not very pleasant, at night it can enjoy the free time of being alone.

Just as he was eating a snack and enjoying the snowy night, the villa suddenly shook.

It was supposed to be after the chakra crash, which caused the building to shake.

"It's started again, and it's really hard for my father. The life of hugging left and right doesn't seem to be satisfactory. ”

Thunder Pill has a habit in his mouth, drinks a hot drink, and exhales leisurely, shaking his tail behind his buttocks, quite comfortable.

Click.

The sound of a doorknob turning.

Shiraishi stood at the doorway with the quilt in his arms and walked towards Thunderingmaru's pet house.

When Thunder Ming Pill saw Shiraishi like this, he suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.

"That...... Father, what are you doing when you come out with the quilt? ”

"It's too noisy in the house, you should be quiet here. Sleep with you tonight. ”

Shiraishi said.

Sleeping inside, Shiraishi was worried that in the middle of the night, the house would suddenly collapse and he would be buried alive in the rubble.

No, no, no, that's not the point. Thundering Pill didn't know where to complain.

This is a pet house, it's its base.

A living person, it's just a matter of grabbing food with pets, why don't you even let go of the house?

Ignoring Thunder Maru's dull face, Shiraishi crawled into the pet house and began to lie down on the floor.

It was only then that Thunderingmaru understood that Shiraishi was serious.

Tonight he really wants to invade its territory and rob it of its dwelling.

"Although it was a little crowded, I didn't expect it to be so quiet here, and I can directly enjoy such a beautiful night, your living environment is good, Thunder Ming Pill."

Shiraishi stretched his body lightly, and although it wasn't big, it was enough for him to stretch out inside.

"I think it's better for you to hurry back to the house and go to bed."

"It is the son's responsibility to support the father."

"I'm underage."

"What does it matter. You're already a qualified adult. ”

“……”

Thunder Ming Pill lay on the ground angrily, not knowing what to refute to Shiraishi.

"You don't mind if I take two bites, do you? I happened to be a little hungry. I didn't eat much at night, and my stomach was almost hungry. ”

Shiraishi reached out and took the snack of Thundering Pill, put it in his mouth and chewed it with relish.

“……”

Die, Father!

Curse you!

Konoha 44 years, early February.

The new year's work boom has begun, and the workers have finished their holidays and begun to devote themselves to this year's work.

With the top level taking the lead and approving sufficient funds, the country of ghosts is in an extremely critical era of rapid development.

All kinds of new industries have sprung up like mushrooms, and foreign merchants continue to come here to learn from experience, which has also led to the economic and industrial development within the country of ghosts.

In between, Shiraishi also paid special attention to the ninja war.

It is not difficult to imagine that the great powers have once again determined the hegemony of the ninja world through war, and the small countries affected will become more and more barren and weaker because they cannot bear the trauma caused by the war of the big powers.

In the case of the Land of Rain, for example, the daimyo and nobles have turned away from the country and the people and turned to the Land of Sand and Wind to flatter.

Even so, the daimyo and nobles still occupied the righteousness of the rain country, and although many people in the rain country hated and helplessly did this, they did not have the desire to overthrow this unreasonable ruling pattern.

First, for the reason left over from history, daimyo and aristocracy have always been in the position of superior people, belonging to the world's celebrities, and they are naturally noble.

Second, the Land of Rain does not have the power to overthrow this unreasonable system.

Third, it is related to education level. Even though there are many decent organizations in the country that are fighting for peace and want to save the country, there is a serious lack of clarity about their course of action and guiding goals.

The fourth reason comes from the targeting of major powers.

A small country ninja village like Yuyin Village, which shined in the Second Ninja World War, and with a special geographical location, the leader is a powerful ninja in the legend of Sanshoyu Hanzo, if you don't take advantage of the war to weaken morale, let Yuyin Village develop peacefully, maybe it will become a big problem for a big country.

However, as far as the current situation is concerned, the ultimate goal of Sand Hidden is still the land of Konoha and Fire.

Since October of the previous year, the Sand Hidden Village has sent more and more envoys to the country of ghosts, and the medical equipment purchased has become more and more expensive.

After determining that the Land of Rain is no longer a threat to the Sand Hide, the next step is a general attack on Konoha and an invasion of the Land of Fire.

With more information than most people in his possession, Shiraishi could easily tell what Sunagare's grand strategy was.

There may be some people on Konoha's side who have analyzed it, such as the people of the Nara clan, who have very good brains, and have always served as the think tank of the Hokage's high-level and the important position of the head of the ninja squad.

And the three generations of Hokage Sarutobi have a lot of trust in the Nara clan, after all, the alliance between the Sarutobi clan and the three families of Pig, Deer and Butterfly has been determined in the Warring States Period. So far, Pig Deer Butterfly is an unwavering Hokage.

Shiraishi can think that the people of the Hokage faction will definitely collect a lot of information for the people of the Nara clan to analyze.

Even if it is impossible to speculate on the details, the grand strategy and ultimate goal of the sand hide should be inferred.

Shiraishi is looking forward to what Konoha will do next.

Once the Konoha troops led by Orochimaru fail in the Land of Rain, the pattern of the five major powers in the ninja world may change because of this.

In the lounge of the office building——

Shiraishi put his hand on the edge of the window and looked out at the clear sky.

The windows were already open, and a cool breeze blew in.

"Close the window, you'll get frostbitten."

A languid female voice sounded in the back, as if feeling cold.

After all, it's only February, and the snow is no longer falling, but the weather is still very cold.

"Ah, I'm sorry."

Only then did Shiraishi realize that he had made a mistake and closed the window.

The room was quiet, and the sound of the wind was blocked out and could not be transmitted.

The quilt was wrapped around the fair body, and the woman with long black hair looked very young, with a small face, and her body and appearance were similar to that of a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, sitting on a bed that still had a manly atmosphere.

Remove the quilt from his body, expose his naked body, and cover the pair of plump pairs on his chest with both hands.

The size, shape, color, and even the degree of toughness are beautiful and sacred things that many women can envy to the point of madness.

The face revealed a faint flush and intoxication, which made it even more amorous.

The movement to create life is sweeter than you think.

It should be said that it is the degree to which the marrow is eaten.

I knew it would make me crazy and not like me, but the feeling of being completely controlled by a man wasn't bad.

Rather, this is exactly what I expected.

From childhood to adulthood, he has not escaped the palm of this man.

Shiraishi also landed on Ayane's body with a fascinated gaze.

That's a completely different feeling from Ruri. Ruri is the kind of woman who has a cold appearance, but in the process of creating life, she is very able to let go. On the contrary, Ayane is actually very conservative on the inside, and her shy and slightly resistant reactions will arouse men's desire to conquer her.

"By the way, there's something for you to do."

"What?"

Ayane was getting dressed, tilting her head slightly.

"You and Iwakuin have some cooperation."

"That's right."

"I want you to work with them one more time and get rid of some of the nails that are in the way."

"If it's against Konoha, I can't guarantee that I'll be able to complete the mission. The last time I fought with Konoha's people, a lot of my abilities were exposed. They should have been more cautious about me. ”

Although knowing her information is not the same as whether or not you can defeat her. But if the information leaks again, it won't go as smoothly as last time.

Even during that operation, Konoha also exposed a lot of information and lost a lot of Shinobi at the root.

But compared to the profound background of the Konoha family's great cause, all kinds of secret techniques and forbidden techniques emerge in an endless stream, if you don't send someone to support her, you really have to be careful when fighting with Konoha people again.

"I'll let Thunder Pill act with you."

Shiraishi said.

"If that's the case, then it's fine. Even though I'm surrounded by thousands of ninjas, as long as Thunder Ming Maru shows his full form, I can retreat without worry. ”

He is very confident in the complete immortal form of Thunder Ming Pill.

"It was originally a doppelganger created by me for this purpose. Its containment ability, as long as it is not a ninja who is proficient in space-time transfer ninjutsu like Watergate, even if it is an existence like Five Shadows, it is very time-consuming to escape from the capture of Thunder Ming Pill. ”

Shiraishi nodded in agreement.

Although the full form of the Thunder Ming Pill was not officially put into actual combat once, Shiraishi was very confident in its ability.

It also goes well with Ayane's white eyes.

With that, Shiraishi came up behind Ayane and hugged her still warm body from behind.

"Ah...... Do? I'm just getting dressed! ”

"It's okay, just take it off again. After all, there will be a while of not seeing you for a while, and now I will make up for you more. ”

Untie the sash of her kimono and press your fingers on her thighs with white over-the-knee socks, which feel good to the touch.

Ayane responds to his bullying with a reaction that appears jerky.

What a man with a bad heart.

She really wanted to be on it, too.

But I can't resist.

Land of Rain.

It's a gray country that lacks beautiful scenery and color.

It's raining every day.

Surrounded by three powerful military powers, the Land of Fire, the Land of Earth, and the Land of Wind, he has been involved in wars between major powers several times.

For the big countries, this land is the land they arbitrarily humiliate, and the lives that live on this land can be trampled on with violence at will.

Countless people who have lost their parents, people who have lost their homes, people who have lost their dignity, people who have not eaten enough, people who have died of hunger.

It's still raining in this city, which is one of the more prosperous cities in the Land of Rain.

But even this kind of city has been eroded by the rainstorm that lacks color and turned into a gray color.

"Don't look around here, if you don't buy it, get out of here."

The owner of the ninja shop said to Yahiko in a bad tone.

There was no disguise of contempt and disgust in his eyes.

In his opinion, Yahiko is just a ninja with a down-and-out life, the uniform on his body is very shabby, the edges of his forehead guard are a little rusty, and he can't even afford to pay for the maintenance of the ninja's forehead, and he is obviously not the guest he wants to entertain.

The people who followed Yahiko's side couldn't help frowning because of the evil words of the owner of the ninja shop.

"What are you staring at, you're a ninja of Rain Hide, right? The poverty of the Rain Ninja has long been known in this country. If you want to make trouble, the adults of the Sand Hidden Ninja will come and settle you. It is advisable for you not to use violence in such places. ”

The owner of the ninja shop said with arrogance.

These of his fine ninja tools were provided to the Sand Hidden Ninjas, not to the poor ghost ninjas of the Rain Hidden Village.

"You're also from the Land of Rain, why do you say such things?"

One questioned angrily.

Although not being able to afford it is the reason for their poverty, being humiliated by the people of their own country in this way makes them feel both anger and sadness that the mountains and rivers are broken.

Doesn't he have a sense of belonging to this country in his heart?

"Hmph, the Land of Rain? I hate this small country very much, and next month I will move to live in the Land of Wind, living under the protection of a great power. ”

"What?"

"The daimyo and the nobles only care about themselves, and don't care about the life or death of us commoners, so why should I pay taxes and let them eat and drink there and play with women everywhere?"

The owner of the ninja shop said coldly.

He used to believe that the country would get better, but he was not balanced in his heart when he knew the inaction of those daimyo and nobles, hiding in the back of the safety all day long, eating and drinking spicy food, and playing with beautiful women.

This kind of remark makes Xiaoren powerless to refute.

"Leave this country, too, for this country has rotted from its roots, and even the daimyo and nobles are obedient to the sand secrets. You're still young, there's no need to waste your life here. ”

Looking at the immature appearance of Yahiko, they are all young people who are less than twenty years old.

The owner of the ninja shop exhaled lightly, not speaking as viciously as before.

"I'm sorry, but we're not going to give up on this country."

Yahiko shook her head.

Glancing at the various sophisticated forbearance equipment attached to the expensive price tag, although they can barely eat it, their money still needs to be used to help those poor people who are living on the verge of life and death.

After all, although their ninja equipment was a little damaged, it was not impossible to use.

It would be nice if we could recruit people who know how to repair and maintain ninja equipment.

But that kind of talent, basically don't value an organization like them.

After all, the repair and maintenance of ninja equipment requires very professional personnel, and in the Great Ninja Village, it is also a rare talent that is focused on training.

"A bunch of fools. The country has long been hopeless. ”

With his hands on his chest, the owner of the ninja shop shook his head and sighed as he watched the backs of these young people slowly disappearing in the rain.

Yahiko and the others, who left the city, had a heavy heart.

Although the words of the ninja shop owner were unpleasant, they also reflected another serious problem on the side.

The country of rain is on the verge of being torn apart, the credibility of the daimyo and the nobility has been lost, and the village of Rain has remained silent during this ninja war.

A bad premonition arose in the hearts of Yahiko and others.

If this unhealthy influence is allowed to spread, the country of rain will not be a country. By that time, the Land of Rain will be strewn with corpses and rivers of blood.

With this heavy mind, I ran through the rain curtain.

"Big brother, that ......"

A shiki ninja pointed ahead, as if he had noticed something strange.

Everyone looked up, and their faces changed suddenly.

The village in front of it, exposed to heavy rain, was burning with fire, and not even the rain could extinguish the frenzied burning fire.

Thick black smoke rushed into the sky.

"Let's go!"

The feet accelerated, and soon they came to the village where the fire was burning.

Corpses, a large number of corpses appeared on dirt roads, on windows, on roofs, by walls.

Old people, women, children, no survivors.

It wasn't a battle, it was just a massacre.

A massacre of gross disparity.

Yahiko squatted down and looked at the corpse of the old man who fell to the ground with a sad face, holding the child who was already cold in his arms.

Yahiko opened the old man's clenched palm, and a few grains of raw rice in the old man's hand immediately fell.

It is conceivable that the old man was brutally murdered by marauders in order to reclaim the precious food that could live.

"Did the robbers do it?"

"No, it's a ninja! There are a lot of young adults in this village, look at the traces, the battle will end in no more than a minute, and after we have cleaned the inside of the rain country, there is no strong thief group. ”

Yahiko's unequivocal voice rang out, and his fists clenched fiercely.

It's a ninja of Konoha ...... Or did the Sand Hidden Ninja do it?

Why?

What exactly did these innocent villagers do wrong?

Just snatch the food, why do you have to ruthlessly deprive yourself of your life?

Countless questions lingered in Yahiko's heart, confusion and anger brewing in his heart.
