Back in Baishi, Ziyuan City, in the name of the military, immediately surrounded the shrine group where Maitreya Witch was located, and forbade anyone to enter.

The monster aura in the shrine is extremely harmful to ordinary people, and if there is a guy who doesn't have long eyes sneaking in, there is basically no way to live.

Even if a ninja sneaks in, I'm afraid it's probably more than lucky.

That kind of monster consciousness full of evil thoughts, for humans, in Shiraishi's opinion, can be described as a dangerous existence that cannot be predators.

In order to avoid such a thing that endangers the lives of the people, it is inevitable to seal down the shrine before Maitreya Shrine Maiden gives birth.

Shiraishi's order was very sudden, but as the highest order issued by the military, the relevant troops were immediately dispatched, divided into two groups, and prepared to take turns guarding the foot of the shrine where Maitreya was located day and night, blocking all entrances and exits to prevent anyone from inadvertently breaking in.

"What's going on, to be so stirring up the people?"

With such a big move, naturally there is no way to hide it from Ruri and Ayane.

Soon after Shiraishi gave this order, the two of them came over and asked about the situation.

"It's not a big deal, it's Maitreya Witch who is pregnant."

Shiraishi confessed the surprising news.

At this moment, Ruri and Ayane swept towards Shiraishi with a dangerous gaze at the same time, as if they were inquiring about something.

Bai Shi saw the second daughter showing such questioning and dangerous eyes, and immediately knew that they must have misunderstood something, so he said helplessly:

"Don't get me wrong, this has nothing to do with me."

"Then how could a shrine maiden get pregnant? The opposite sex who has the most frequent contact with that witch is you, Shiraishi-kun, right? ”

There seemed to be a black aura of teeth and claws behind Ayane, and her eyes stared at Shiraishi faintly

Ruri also stared at Shiraishi with cold eyes, as if she were looking at a dead person.

If you don't explain this matter clearly, it's light that you can't go to bed tonight, maybe Liuli will use the fire escape technique to purify him in place.

"It's not me. Maitreya Shrine Maiden is actually parthenogenesis. ”

"Parhenogenesis? The shrine maiden is not a paramecium, where did it come from for parthenogenesis? Shiraishi-kun, even if you lie, you have to make up a reliable excuse for us. ”

Ayane sighed, thinking that Shiraishi was just looking for an excuse to mess with the big witch's belly.

It's okay to make excuses, and if you still find such an excuse full of loopholes, how can you let him pass.

"I don't dare to admit that I have a big woman's belly, this is no longer the level of bad character. It seems that you have been too indulgent over the years, and you need to discipline it well. ”

Liuli also spoke coldly on the side, full of contempt.

"You can see this kind of thing for yourself, for ordinary people, the shrine is indeed a little dangerous now, but you can use natural energy to enter and feel it. If my guess is correct, it should be a monster that has been passed down from generation to generation in the country of ghosts, and it is inextricably linked to the shrine maiden. ”

Shiraishi's face did not change and he did not mean to look away, and the placement of his hands and feet was also very natural, not like he was lying.

Now it was Ruri and Ayane's turn to hesitate.

"Even so, what does the shrine maiden's pregnancy have to do with the monster spirit?"

The monster of the country of ghosts, the two of them have also heard of this legend.

They couldn't understand the connection between the monster and the witch Maitreya's pregnancy.

"Maybe it's because all the energy is focused on nurturing the next generation, and the suppression of monsters will be relaxed during this period. The child in Maitreya's womb was named Shion by her, and according to her, the child would be born in nineteen months. ”

"Nineteen months?"

Ruri and Ayane, who were not prepared in the slightest, opened their eyes wide.

As a mother, Liuli feels even more unbelievable.

Is that shrine maiden really human?

I have never heard of a human woman's pregnancy being nineteen months long.

"Yes, it's incredible, but that's exactly what Maitreya Shrine Maiden told me."

As an inhuman shrine maiden, her appearance and habits are similar to those of normal people, but her essence has long been out of the realm of human comprehension.

"So what are we going to do here?"

"Don't do anything. Maitreya doesn't want us to get involved. ”

"Is that monster so powerful?"

Ruri's face was eager to try.

Even if she is a mother who has given birth, the Uchiha's fighting factor will not be lost from the Ruri bloodline, and she is eager to fight a powerful being and prove her strength.

"It's not a great existence in terms of pure power. But the strength of monsters can't be judged from the perspective of strength alone. For example, it has the undead characteristics of a tailed beast, and it can only be sealed with the power of a shrine maiden. ”

"If that's the case, it's a bit of a hassle."

Ruri also nodded in agreement.

The immortality of the tailed beast is easy to say, but if it can only be restrained by the power of the shrine maiden, then the monster will indeed be very tricky for ninjas.

"It doesn't matter what it is, the seal of the monster is the job of the shrine maiden, we just need to do our own thing. It just so happens that the two of you are here, and I have a task for you. ”

Shiraishi took out a document from the drawer that recorded a large amount of information and placed it in Ruri's hand.

"What task do you want the two of us to handle?"

Ruri asked, opening the file and scanning the contents.

Ayane also approached Ruri, reading the content of the quest above.

The content of the above task is very simple, the spy personnel of the Oni Country military, after months of hard searching, found the traces of the ruins of the empty country fortress that had long been destroyed during the Second Ninja World War.

Shiraishi has only one purpose, and that is to get the blueprints of this ruinous fortress.

"The Land of the Void......"

Whether it's Ruri or Ayane, their faces show a look of nostalgia.

During the last Great Ninja War, a madman country suddenly appeared in the ninja world who wanted to challenge the status of the five great powers, the country of the sky.

The ninjas of this country are adept at controlling chakras and are able to use a flying ninja to fly freely in the skies.

Although it caused some trouble to the five major powers at the time, it was finally exterminated by Konoha troops before it could pose a huge threat.

"At the time, I remember fighting these people, but these air ninjas were mediocre, and the kind of flying ninjas they flew were a bit troublesome. However, I remember that the empty ninja was wiped out by Konoha later. ”

Ayane said as she recalled something.

"The ninjas of the country of the sky have not been wiped out, a small number of remnant ninjas have fled, according to intelligence, they are now dormant in a mountain forest in the country of the forest with the fortress base equivalent to the ninja village, waiting for the opportunity to rise again."

Shiraishi told the current situation of the ninjas in the empty country.

"Well, but just get the blueprints back?"

"It's enough to have a blueprint, that fortress is not easy to transfer, the target is too big. And according to the information that came back, the fortress seemed to be in a semi-abandoned state, and it had not been repaired and could not be moved. After you get the design drawing, just destroy it, don't leave it for others. ”

Ruri and Ayane nodded in understanding.

"Then please."

"Wait for our good news."

Ruri and Ayane immediately set off, and according to the content of the mission, they went to the country of Lin to seize the design drawings in the empty ninja fortress.

When the two of them left, Shiraishi began to order people to recruit the witches in the country of ghosts, and within three days, three hundred witches would be recruited.

The 300 shrine maidens were then trained for three months to teach them how to carry out propaganda work in a foreign land.

Now that most countries in the ninja world are not in a good state because of the Third Ninja World War, the domestic economy is not very prosperous, and there are still places where diseases are contagious, and many people have no money to treat them.

At the same time, it was necessary to lend money to the nobles of the surrounding small countries.

According to Shiraishi's knowledge, the neighboring kingdoms of Yunokoku and Kumanokuni are already in deficit and are in dire need of money.

When the time comes, these small countries will not pay their debts within the time limit, and there is no more suitable and convenient excuse to attack these small countries.

Shiraishi has everything planned.

However, this can only be done against the country of ghosts and bears, and the country of snow in the north is economically stable, and the internal political situation is also stable and free of pressure.

In addition, the Daimyo of Snow Country is diligent and loves the people, and he is a rare benevolent person, and the good reputation of this daimyo is something that even Shiraishi has heard of.

Therefore, Shiraishi decided to wait and see the snow country for a while, and whether to make a move or not was to wait and see the after-effects. However, the country of ghosts and the country of bears, the two springboard countries that connect the country of wind, must be controlled in their hands, which is related to the major layout of the country of ghosts in the future.

◎

The training of 300 shrine maidens is officially underway, and Ruri and Ayane also go to the forest country to find the ruins of the fortress of Kushinobi, and the work of Shiraishi is easy again.

When I'm at home.,Occasionally, I'll tease Asuka and Ichihime.,These two children are growing up healthy and happy in the peaceful country of Oni.。

Especially Kazuhime, for this daughter who was born with super talent, Shiraishi undoubtedly has deep expectations for her.

However, because of her young age, Shiraishi sealed all of Kazuhime's abilities, lest she not control one of them well and cause a huge riot in the surroundings.

After all, a chakra that is close to the level of a tailed beast, even if it is not a display of power in the form of a technique, just a pure chakra release is enough to make ordinary ninjas unapproachable.

Shiraishi thought that when Kazuhime was six years old, he would start teaching her ninja skills.

As for the bird, compared to the one who is the younger sister, the talent is mediocre, and it is still the level of ordinary people.

But being able to live like an ordinary person, Shiraishi doesn't feel anything bad, at least he has the ability to protect his family now.

Even if Asuka is just an ordinary ninja in the future, he can live a stable and happy life.

Telling the Heavenly Feather Girl to take care of Asuka and Ichihime, Shiraishi plans to go to the Wet Bone Forest.

He hadn't forgotten that the two disciples, Obitu and Lin, were still cultivating their natural energy there.

After such a long time, the natural energy cultivation of these two people, in Shiraishi's opinion, should have been somewhat effective.

Through the teleportation to inform the living slugs here to use the reverse psychic technique, Shiraishi suddenly came to the Wet Bone Forest.

"No matter how many times you look at it, your body is exaggerated."

Looking at the behemoth in front of him, Shiraishi felt that the word spectacular was not enough to describe the huge body of the living slug.

It only takes a turn to cause the earth to shake.

As a result, live slugs do not usually move, and if there is something to do, they only need to separate a part of their bodies from their bodies.

"There are also disadvantages to being too big, and it will be inconvenient to do things, my body has not moved here for three hundred years, and every time I move, the forest will be crushed."

The soft and glutinous sound came from the huge mouthparts of the live slug.

“……”

"Lord Shiraishi, why don't you speak?"

“…… Ah, I was just thinking about something, I don't have to worry about it. Speaking of, how are Obito and Rin doing? ”

Shiraishi cleverly shifted the subject.

It's really not a sane thing to talk about time with a near-immortal psychic beast.

Dozens of years and hundreds of years, Shiraishi is very stressed.

"Lin's natural energy cultivation is in good condition, and she is currently trying to fuse the Immortal Chakra."

The live slug told the truth about Lynn's situation.

Shiraishi nodded knowingly.

It's not fast, but it's not slow.

Rin, who fuses the Immortal Chakra, will have a much higher recovery effect and speed when the medical ninjutsu is cast, which can be regarded as cultivating a medical ninja with excellent abilities for the country of ghosts.

After all, there is still a great shortage of medical ninjas in the country of ghosts, and a medical ninja with excellent ability can sometimes be worth the role of dozens or even hundreds of medical ninjas.

"Obito's natural energy fusion state is not very good, he has too many distractions in his heart, although he has successfully channeled the natural energy, but the control and operation are very bad."

"Forget it, boy, take your time. At his age, it is inevitable that he will be a little impatient in doing things. I went over first, and then we talked slowly. ”

Shiraishi said goodbye to the live slugs and walked towards the white forest.

The surrounding area was bare white trees, whose roots stood upright like needles, and on the white trees, there were many palm-sized slugs climbing on them, secreting mucus from their mouthparts, which were split off by live slugs.

It can be said that every corner of this forest is covered with the ears and eyes of live slugs, and nothing can be hidden from it.

This is also a means of protection.

Although the Wet Bone Forest is in a hidden place in the ninja world, ordinary people can't break in, but occasionally people with extreme luck will inadvertently break into this forest.

If it is in pursuit of power, the slug will make a pact with it.

If he accidentally breaks in, but an ordinary person who doesn't know anything, the living slug will erase his memories of entering the Wet Bone Forest and send them to the outside world, and will not take the initiative to hurt these lost people who inadvertently broke into the Wet Bone Forest.

According to the living slug, the psychic beasts of the three holy places each have their own distinctive characteristics.

Changing to the Dragon Land Cave, which is also a three-holy land, in the face of the lost, it will be directly lured into the cave, swallowed into the stomach and enjoy a delicious meal.

Therefore, the psychic beasts in the Dragon Earth Cave are all a group of bloodthirsty snakes with lawless and brutal personalities.

They don't make a pact with ninjas without permission, and only when their power is recognized by them will they respect and approve of it.

Shiraishi walked around in the white forest, and soon came to the place where Obito and Rin cultivated.

There is a clear stream with fatty fish and a small vegetable patch with some green vegetables.

In addition, there are several wooden huts made of white wood, on which the clones of several live slugs crawl slowly, using the slime spit out of their mouthparts to deal with the insects and stains that may appear on the wooden houses.

Shiraishi sometimes brings Ruri and Ayane here to practice, so for convenience, he built vegetable plots and houses here to solve the problem of food and housing.

"Mr. Shiraishi, you're here."

Sensing Baishi's chakra, Lin immediately interrupted her cultivation.

Lin, who was able to initially use the Immortal Chakra, already had the ability to perceive.

"It's just about to be dealt with over there, so I'll come over and take a look. The Immortal Chakra is used well, and you can enter the next stage of cultivation next. ”

The cultivation results that Lin showed at this moment, Bai Shi also nodded approvingly.

"Teacher Shiraishi, what is the next stage of cultivation?"

"It's very simple, it is to successfully integrate the Immortal Chakra with medical ninjutsu, control the Immortal Chakra, and make the Immortal Chakra appear in the form of a technique, which are two different concepts. You can try to cultivate in this area now, and I will guide you on how to do it. ”

"I see."

Lin nodded firmly, indicating that she would not disappoint Shiraishi.

For Rin's attitude of earnestly seeking knowledge and studying hard, Shiraishi is undoubtedly satisfied.

After all, the master-apprentice relationship between him and Lin now is completely different from the master-apprentice relationship between Watergate and Rin.

The master-apprentice relationship between him and Lin belongs to the real master-apprentice, which is equivalent to a lineage.

The master-apprentice relationship between Watergate and Lin is more of a structural relationship between subordinates and subordinates.

Therefore, Shiraishi will teach Lin, his own medical ninjutsu, and some other core abilities, and when necessary, he will also expand to Lin, including his own beliefs.

As for how much Lynn can learn from him, it depends on her own effort and understanding.

The rest of the people dare not say that in terms of talent in medical ninjutsu, Shiraishi can be sure that Lin is an uncarved piece of jade, and he will have very high achievements on the road of medical ninja in the future.

Just as Shiraishi wanted to continue to say something, there was a sound of breaking the air behind him.

The speed of the sneak attacker is very fast, and the strength is not weak, and when he is punched, Shiraishi feels that he will also be injured.

Shiraishi had already sensed this happening, so he didn't hesitate to turn sideways and let the sneak attacker's fist pass his body by a fraction of a second.

Seeing that Baishi dodged, he also knew that with the level of sneak attack just now, it was impossible to hit the other party, so he stopped his steps in time, turned his body, and took his body as the axis, and his right foot fiercely showed a kick, sweeping towards Baishi's body.

Shiraishi raised his arm and easily blocked the opponent's right leg.

The one who sneaked up on him was a black-haired boy who had lost his left eye, and when he opened the red three-hooked jade writing wheel eye on his right, the moment he met Shiraishi's gaze, the illusion was activated.

The speed and strength of the physical arts, including the timing of the illusions, were very decisive and fast.

However, this still has no effect on Shiraishi.

"No amount of delicate illusion has worked for me. I should have warned you a long time ago about this kind of thing, Obito. ”

For Shiraishi, who has a second person in his body, the moment Obito releases the illusion, the illusion has already lost its effect.

Obito also knew that he couldn't do anything, and wanted to step back and distance himself from Shiraishi, but Shiraishi's erected arm reached out like lightning, grabbed Obito's right leg, which he didn't have time to retract, and shook it hard.

Obito's body flew out, adjusting his body in the air to avoid rolling on the ground.

But he was also very reluctant to stabilize his body on the ground, his shoes rubbed against the ground, making a grinding sound, his shoulders shook up and down, and his breath was short.

"It's too slow."

Obito's body stiffened, and the white stone in front of him had disappeared.

The voice came from behind him.

"Cut, you only relied on the help of others to solve my illusion."

Obito seemed a little unconvinced.

Faced with Obito's unconvinced voice, Shiraishi just smiled and said:

"I didn't expect the geniuses of the Uchiha clan to find such an unreasonable excuse for their own failures. Can't a man admit his failure a little? ”

"Hmph, the guy who eats our Uchiha soft rice, you don't seem qualified to say that—oops!"

Obito immediately covered his head with his hands and screamed in pain.

This bastard, why is he knocking on the head again.

Filled with resentment towards Shiraishi, he turned around and swept out a kick that hit the air, and Shiraishi had already appeared a few meters away with his instantaneous technique.

"Okay, Obito, don't be angry, Mr. Shiraishi is just joking with you."

Rin walked over to comfort Obito, who was about to rush up to continue the fight with Shiraishi, with a soft smile on her face.

Only then did it with the soil.

Although Lynn has lost her previous memories, she is still just as gentle. Obito sighed happily in his heart.

As long as you are by Lynn's side and smell Lynn's breath, your body and mind seem to be full of strength.

"Lynn, you're spoiling him too much. After such a long time, I can only barely integrate into natural energy, and it is too early to cultivate immortal arts. ”

Shiraishi walked over and preached to Obito.

"You can't blame me for this, I also want to master it as soon as possible."

Obito was also a little depressed.

He didn't lie about this, he wanted to become stronger as soon as possible and protect Lin.

Shiraishi glanced at Obito, didn't say anything, took out a glass bottle from his arms, and threw it at Obito.

Obito caught the glass bottle, and his face showed puzzlement.

"It's ......"

"Spare the Sharingan Eye, press it on your left eye. When you fight with one eye, your vision will be obstructed, which will affect your strength. ”

Shiraishi said.

Only then did Obito see that in the solution in the glass bottle, there was a living eyeball soaked in it, which showed the form of a three-hook jade writing wheel eye.

"Lynn, please help Obito install this eye. For you now, it should be a trivial matter. ”

"Okay, Mr. Shiraishi."

Lin had no objection, knowing that this was a test for Shiraishi, so she took Obito to the small room and performed eye surgery for him.

Shiraishi looked at Obito's back and felt regretful in his heart.

He originally wanted to let Obito master the trick of immortal arts as soon as possible, and let the kaleidoscope writing wheel eye form combat effectiveness as soon as possible, but at present, it will take a long time to cultivate if he wants to make Obito's kaleidoscope writing wheel eye form combat effectiveness.

Obviously, the normal step-by-step approach is not suitable for a 'gifted' Uchiha ninja like Obito. In the face of this kind of unusual 'genius', Shiraishi also felt difficult.

◎

The Land of the Forest.

Ahead of them were a dense forest of trees stretching out of the sky, where Ruri and Ayane appeared, and the two of them looked at the pedestal of human faces raised from the dirt in front of them, and immediately identified the huge structure lurking underground, which was the goal of their trip.

"Is this it?"

The glass caressed the pedestal, which looked like a broken statue, with many notches and severe wear.

Ayane opened her eyes, glanced underground, and nodded in confirmation.

"Yes, yes, it's lurking right under our feet, it's a big guy."

Under Ayane's eyes, beneath the ground beneath their feet was a huge rock building the size of a small town.

Inside this building, at least tens of thousands of people live in it.

In the center of the building, Ayane also found an extremely strange chakra with the white of her eyes, and frowned.

"What's wrong?"

"I saw a very strange chakra inside the fortress, similar to the feeling of the tailed beast."

Ayane turned her head and said.

"Tailed beasts? Did the Empty Country still conduct research on tailed beasts? ”

Ruri was surprised.

With the ninja power of the country of the sky, it should not have the ability to catch the tailed beast.

Moreover, the tailed beasts of the five major countries are still well preserved, and the tailed beasts of Takikure Village are sealed in the body of Nohara Rin, located in the country of ghosts. Where did the tailed beast come from in the land of the sky?

"It's just something similar, I'm not sure it's a tailed beast. However, this chakra is indeed a bit powerful, and unlike ordinary chakras, the entire operation of the fortress is also powered by this chakra. ”

"In that case, let's take it back with you, Shiraishi should be interested in this strange chakra."

Ayane didn't object, she and Ruri had the same idea.

Then, Ruri jumped to the side, away from the stone pedestal in the shape of a human face.

Ayane's hands were clenched into fists with white leather gloves on her hands, and then they fell swiftly towards the ground.

Centered on the place where the fist fell, an incomparably terrifying impact force spread out in all directions, and the trees of the dense forest creaked, uprooted and blown away by the storm.

Where Ayane stood, the earth had been instantly shattered by the power of her fist, and it had become a mess.

The stone pedestal in the shape of a human face turned into gray-white grains of sand, which were scattered by the wind.

The huge stone buildings stained with mud are partly exposed to the sun, and on the exposed part of the building, a large hole is exaggerated.

Ayane shook her numb arm and looked at the building's interior passage, a smile on her lips that made her feel unpleasant.

"Alright, the entrance is clear, and now it's hunting time."
