Chapter 116: The Wind Rises
"Sasuke, you're awake, huh?"
When Sakura pushed the door in, she saw that Sasuke was not lying on the hospital bed at this time, but sitting there and waking up from his slumber.
Seeing that it was Sakura coming in, Sasuke felt a sore back all over his body, but nodded anyway to reassure Sakura.
"Is the final over?"
"Yes, the finals are over."
Sakura hesitated, but said it anyway.
Considering that Sasuke's physical condition was not very good at this time, she still didn't say anything about Naruto's entry into the finals.
She had a vague sense that Sasuke and Naruto had a fiercely competitive relationship.
If Sasuke learns that Naruto ended up getting better results than him, his arrogance will inevitably affect his mood.
Sakura thinks it's better to wait for Sasuke to be discharged from the hospital and talk about it later.
Fortunately, Sasuke only asked casually and did not delve into this matter, which made Sakura breathe a sigh of relief.
"I didn't know why, but suddenly I felt someone talking in my ear..."
Sasuke clutched his forehead, which was starting to ache a little, and a look of doubt appeared on his face.
"I guess it's the doctor here."
Sakura didn't care, and walked over to comfort her.
Sasuke didn't refute, but he vaguely felt that the person who was talking in his ear just now didn't look like a medical ninja who treated his injuries.
However, Sasuke also didn't dig into this kind of thing, although he now feels back pain, but for some reason, his body has become lighter than before.
Is it because of the psychological effect?
Sasuke didn't understand what was going on, and he didn't care too much about losing in the final.
It can only show that his strength is still insufficient and needs to be further polished.
After all, under Kakashi's teaching, he has been like this for the past few years, and he has never won head-on once.
Such a failure was not enough to defeat his confidence.
"Sasuke, you can rest well, Kakashi-sensei will come to see you later, I'll go see Naruto first, his injuries seem to be quite serious."
Sakura and Sasuke talked for a while, and they wanted to visit each other, considering that Naruto seemed to need his own care too.
"Well, go ahead. I also need a quiet break. “
Sasuke nodded, just frowning, thinking seriously about something, probably summarizing his various shortcomings in the battle.
Sakura didn't say anything, and after pouring Sasuke a cup of hot water, she quickly left the hospital room and headed to Naruto.
I don't know how long it took, Sasuke kept sitting in the hospital bed, until the pain in his body began to subside, and he wanted to try to get out of bed, but as soon as he moved his body, a sudden pain rushed into his mind, making him gasp.
"I advise you not to get out of bed easily."
Kakashi's figure suddenly appeared from the window, and I don't know when it appeared there, the window opened, and a warm wind blew in from outside.
"You've been eavesdropping for a while, haven't you?"
Sasuke snorted.
"Oh, do you see that?"
"No, it's just judging by your habit of stealing chickens and dogs."
Let's not talk about whether he could detect Kakashi's figure in his heyday, but Sasuke understands that he has no ability to detect Kakashi's trace just because he is not in a good state now.
But thinking of Kakashi's usual elusive performance, Sasuke said this based on the most basic judgment.
”… You're still so unforgiving. “
Kakashi sighed helplessly.
"Naruto made it to the finals, didn't he?"
Sasuke was silent for a moment, then asked suddenly.
"Why do you think that?"
"Because of Sakura's hesitant expression, she was taking care of my emotions. Moreover, her stay here was too short, and she would have tried to find a way to stay here in normal times, but she didn't do that, she avoided something, and walked away when she saw that I was fine. “
The light in Sasuke's eyes was pure, as if he had seen through the essence of things.
Although he is not boasting, Sasuke knows how popular he is among girls of the same age.
Sakura's admiration for herself has always been undisguised, this kind of thing, even a nervous stupid person like Naruto can see it, let alone him.
It's just that he's not interested in anything like love at all.
Or rather, there is no time and qualification to be interested.
He was carrying so many things on his back that he didn't want to waste his energy on something as boring as being in love.
Because it will not help him in revenge, it will only become a drag on him.
Therefore, he wanted to be closer to Naruto who had been chasing him more than Sakura.
Only in this way can he become stronger and one step closer to revenge.
"I'm talking about you, aren't you a little too presumptuous?"
Kakashi scratched his head.
"I just know exactly what I'm doing and what I'm going to do in the future. So, the result? “
Sasuke looked directly into Kakashi's listless eyes.
"As you might have guessed, Naruto made it to the finals, but lost to Aya Chiba in the Land of Oni and missed out on the championship."
Kakashi was blunt.
Unlike Sakura, he will take care of Sasuke in another way and promote his growth.
"Really? It seems that the things in his body have helped him a lot. “
Sasuke seemed to be hinting at something.
"Are you already able to see this step?"
Kakashi was slightly surprised.
"I'm well aware of Naruto's foundation, and if he wants to make it to the final, then he can only rely on that kind of thing. Because the players behind will only be stronger than one another, and with only real materials, the current Naruto is still too tender. “
Sasuke admits Naruto's usual hard work, but everything needs to be a gradual process.
As a teammate, he knew well what Naruto's strengths and weaknesses were.
That's why he can see clearly where Naruto's strength is.
Naruto's strength is for those who don't have the means to target him, but in the face of real monsters, his weaknesses will be infinitely magnified.
Moreover, the no-kill rule of this final also gives a ninja of Naruto's type a lot of room to operate.
Kakashi was satisfied with Sasuke's analysis.
"Looks like you don't need me to comfort you."
"Although I am a little unhappy in my heart, if I lose, I lose, and there is nothing to say. So, what exactly is Naruto inside of him? That's something more evil than Orochimaru's chakra."
Sasuke's expression became solemn, and he was not afraid to look at Kakashi, wanting to know the answer.
Kakashi and Sasuke looked at each other for about three seconds before slowly speaking, "Tailed Beast." ”
"Tailed beasts? I remember it was..."
"There are a total of nine tailed beasts in this world, and eight of them belong to the ninja villages of the five great powers of fire, wind, earth, water, and thunder. The last tailed beast belongs to the village of Takikure in the country of Taki, but I heard that the village lost their tailed beast during the Third Ninja War. And the country of ghosts rose late, so it was not assigned to the tailed beast. The tailed beast in Naruto's body has been the private property of Konoha since the reign of the original Hokage, and it is also the pillar force of the current generation.
"Is that so?"
Sasuke knew that the Tailed Beast was a powerful creature condensed by pure chakra, but he didn't expect his teammate to have such a sensitive identity.
Naruto is an important tailed beast weapon in the village.
It can be said to be a person, or it can be said to be a piece of... Weapons!
It's a good fit for the traditional definition of a ninja as a tool.
"You should have heard the name of the tailed beast, it is called the nine-tailed demon fox. And Iara, who fought with Naruto before, is also a human pillar force, and his body is sealed with a sand motsuru.
After hearing Kakashi's words, Sasuke's eyes widened.
Then I thought of the same abnormal half-beast body when I Airo fought Naruto, and his face became solemn.
"The strength of the human pillar force is difficult to judge with general common sense, and with the fierce fluctuations of feelings, they will liberate the tailed beast Chakra in their bodies,
If left unchecked, the Tailed Beast will descend in its full form, which is a terrible disaster for most ninjas. “
"Don't comfort me with such words, I'm not a child."
Just like he can use special chakra, then, the group with special powers in this world is not much, but it is not too little.
Especially the finalists, each of whom has their own skills.
Sasuke never thought he would be the only ninja to enjoy special services.
Rengui is self-aware, and he is still too far from those ninjas with top strength.
"If only you understood."
"Next, I'll further refine Chidori and extend Chidori in my way, and in addition, about the question of immortal arts... Are you really sure that the ninja cat clan who signed a contract with the Uchiha clan holds that so-called immortal art? ”
Sasuke wanted to confirm that.
Naruto made a contract with Mt. Mioki in the Three Holy Lands, and he might learn that senjutsu in the future.
Although he doesn't know what senjutsu really is, Sasuke wants to arm himself with more power and make himself stronger.
"It's up to you to dig it yourself, and I've only heard about it."
Kakashi squinted his eyes and smiled, much to Sasuke's annoyance.
It's this kind of mysticism that makes Sasuke feel very unhappy.
If it weren't for the fact that he wasn't as strong as his opponent, he would have wanted to punch Kakashi hard in the face.
"However, there may not be much time left for you to grow up in Konoha in the future."
Kakashi turned around and looked through the open window at the blue sky above him, meaningful.
Sasuke's gaze fell on Kakashi's back, his brow furrowed slightly.
What does that mean?
What does it mean that there is not much time left for him to grow up in Konoha safely?
Is something big going to happen to Konoha?
"After that, when I return to Konoha, I may disappear for a while, and when the time comes, you can improvise and stabilize Naruto and Sakura for me, so that they don't act rashly."
"What do you mean?"
"There will be a huge change in the upper layer of Konoha."
Kakashi left the sentence in the end and disappeared from the room.
Sasuke's eyes widened in shock.
A big change in the upper layer of Konoha?
Immediately something came to mind, was it about the next Hokage?
Sasuke's guess is understandable.
Because the three generations of Hokage in the village are too old, they can occasionally learn from the village gossip that the physical fitness of the three generations of Hokage is declining day by day, and it is not surprising when they are tired.
Then, it is very necessary to decide who will be the next Hokage.
Kakashi: What role will you play in this? Sasuke looked in the direction Kakashi had left, and his heart was confused for a moment.
Then, Sasuke was relieved.
That is, with his current status, it seems that he is not enough to intervene in such disputes.
It is not yet known whether he can become a middle ninja, and if there is really some kind of huge change in the upper echelons of the village, it is something that the upper ninjas are qualified to consider.
Forget it, I'll still do what Kakashi tells me and cultivate in peace. Sasuke thought so.
No matter what happens in the village, it is impossible to implicate him as a nobody.
"So this kind of funny thing happened when I wasn't there?"
After the award ceremony, the joint middle ninja exam naturally came to an end, and in the simple conference room, only Shiraishi, Ayane and Ruri were here.
Obito took Lin to recuperate, and judging from the degree of Lin's mental damage, it is estimated that it will take a while to recover.
And after hearing what Ishi's spiritual world saw and heard in Sasuke's spiritual world, Ayane's face suddenly showed an interesting smile.
"I remember that Indra is the ancestor of your Uchiha clan, right?"
Ayane looked at Ruri.
"So what? He's dead anyway, and he's probably gone now. “
Ruri shrugged her shoulders, judging from the root of the bloodline, Indra was indeed the founder of the Uchiha clan.
But the Uchiha clan is not bad for this ancestor, even the Uchiha Madara she doesn't have much respect, and she naturally doesn't have much feeling for an ancestor like Indra, who has long been separated by an unknown number of generations.
At most, I feel that a very powerful ancestor has died, and I will remember it a little later.
Other than that, there isn't much volatility.
"Squirt, it's really ruthless, forget it, let's discuss what to do next, right? According to what Shiraishi-kun said, Uchiha Sasuke is the current Indra reincarnation, and Uchiha Madara should be the previous Indra reincarnation. So the question is, who is the reincarnation of the asura?
Ayane asks the crux of the question.
"This asura reincarnation has a suspicious target, but it can't be completely determined. But the previous Asura Reincarnation, if expected to be good, should be the original Hokage Senju Pillar. Because he was Madara's most formidable opponent in his life and a descendant of Asura. “
Shiraishi said.
Based on the nature of Indra and Asura attracting and fighting with each other, this is the most reasonable speculation.
"The god of ninjas? In this way, Shiraishi-kun has long wondered why only the first Hokage of the Thousand Hands Clan can use the Wood Escape Ninjutsu. ”
Ayane thought of a hypothesis that Shiraishi had made since he was still in Konoha.
If this involved the power of the so-called Asura, Ayane's expression couldn't help but become serious.
In their old age, Madara could still exert unparalleled strength, even if it was for a short time, but it also made the three of them suffer a lot at that time.
And the original Hokage with the ability to press spots, it is unimaginable how great the power of Mu Dun should be.
If this power is caused by asuras, then everything makes sense.
Only the Thousand-Hand Clansmen who have been parasitized by the Asura can use the Wood Escape.
"Yes, I've also investigated a lot of information about the Thousand Hands Clan for this reason, but there are still a lot of things that don't make sense about the origin of Mu Dun.
As a researcher, Shiraishi naturally explores a matter to the end, even if it is a trivial matter, and always wants to restore it and explore the truth in it.
Unfortunately, there are too many ancient documents that have been lost or damaged due to the chaos of war.
Even with the power of the Oni Country, there has been little progress in this regard.
"The Thousand Hands Clan has been in retirement for many years, and the reincarnation of the Asura can't be Tsunade-sama, right?"
Ayane had a whim.
Shiraishi and Shuliju looked at her speechlessly.
Tsunade...... I really dare to think about it
"Anyway, the age difference between the two is too much, and Tsunade-sensei can't be guilty of targeting an orphan of the Uchiha clan. Don't forget
The descendants of Asura, in addition to the Thousand Hands Clan, also have the Vortex Clan, and they are also a group that inherits the blood of Asura. ”
Shiraishi reminded.
"Uzumaki incense? This time the age is right, and the two have also played a game in the previous game. In this way, this reincarnation is the victory of Indra. “
Ayane guessed here again.
"I think that yellow-haired imp in Konoha is more like it."
Ruri had no choice but to say a word, and she had to admire Ayane's brain.
"Naruto Uzumaki? That kind of stupid guy, it's impossible, right? ”
Ayane frowned.
"His chakra feels so bright, like a light bulb."
Liuli continued to add.
Shiraishi also nodded in agreement and said, "So I said it just now, but it's just suspicious... What the specific truth is, we need to dig further. More important than that, now is to figure out what the hell Black Jedi is. ”
Ruri and Ayane both muffled.
An ancient creature that has lived for thousands of years is still hiding in the shadows of the ninja world to stir up the wind and rain, and anyone who hears it will find it tricky.
From this point of view, the speculation that the black absolute is a mutant individual in the white absolute is completely wrong.
"Is the black absolute in Indra's mouth really the same thing as the black absolute we know?
Ayane asked unconvinced.
That's why it's necessary to investigate the details. Indra said that he could try to investigate from Kaguya. “
"It's a little too difficult."
The Land of Oni has always been collecting ancient documents, especially various legends from ancient times.
But unfortunately, even after consuming countless manpower and financial resources, the understanding of the Six Dao Immortals is very limited.
Not to mention, the earlier Otsuki Kaguya.
All traces of the big barrel wood Kaguya may have been erased by the Six Dao Immortals thousands of years ago, and they don't want to show it to the world.
"I know it's very difficult, but if the black absolute we know and the black absolute of Indra really exist the same thing, then we can't let it go.
In fact, Shiraishi is also skeptical about this kind of thing.
However, with the attitude of preferring to believe in what it has and not believing in it, it is necessary to investigate the true details of the black absolute.
He believed that if the Black Absolute was really planning something, there would definitely be some clues left.
"Let Kakashi keep an eye on the documents left behind by the Senju clan on Konoha's side, and we'll also do it at the same time, starting with Otsuki Kaguya. Triple the manpower of the archaeological troops. ”
Shiraishi thought about it for a moment and said.
In the absence of major events, he needs to sit in the country of ghosts and will not leave easily.
Moreover, the archaeological team of the country of ghosts has been formed, and professional matters are handed over to professionals to deal with.
"The specific matter, you discuss it first, I'm going to see the kid named Kaguya-kun Maro, Terumi should be in a hurry."
With that, Shiraishi left the conference room.
When it was almost dark, the staff of the guild hall began to clean the scene.
Shiraishi went to the special ward in the guild hall.
Because Jun Malu did not fall down because of his serious injuries, but because of a special illness, he was arranged here.
Entering the ward, Shiraishi saw the three of them in the ward.
In addition to Terumi Ming, the acting Mizukage who is about to take office as the fifth generation of Mizukage, there is also the new Shinobi Seven in recent years, and the Misty Hidden Ninja Peach Land is also among them.
He carried a large decapitation knife on his back, his eyes were sharp, and his face without eyebrows, although only half of it was exposed, gave people a very ruthless taste.
And the third person is Kaguya-kunmaro who is a patient.
He was lying on the hospital bed with a pale face, his face was covered with a respirator, he looked extremely weak, and the chakra in his body was also very disordered, as if it was out of control.
"Sorry, I'm too late to deal with some things over there."
"It's okay, it's our side that is tired."
Terumi didn't care, and it was already their side that took advantage of it if they could free up Shiraishi from his busy schedule.
Shiraishi is not too polite, and it is not the first time he has met Terumi Ming, and the two sides have a very close cooperative relationship, so there is no need to mind too much about this little thing.
Bai Shi stepped forward and directly put his hand on Jun Maro's chest, and infiltrated his immortal chakra into Jun Maro's body to investigate Jun Maro's condition, so that he could intuitively understand Jun Maro's physical condition.
It took about two minutes before Shiraishi withdrew his Immortal Chakra.
During this period, Terumi and Zaibu did not speak, so as not to disturb Shiraishi.
"Do you have a detailed report of his medical records?"
Shiraishi asked with a frown.
Terumi gestured to Zai Bu with her eyes.
Then he handed the medical records that had been prepared to Baishi in front of him.
Shiraishi glanced at ten lines, and after a quick glance, he knew it in his chest.
"How?"
Terumi was worried.
"It's tricky, I'd like to ask, did the Kaguya clan have any patients with the same condition before?"
Shiraishi closed the medical report and asked against Mei Ming.
"This... I don't know too much, but according to the Kabaya clan's own family history, the above descriptions of the awakened people of the corpse vein are basically brushed off with 'untimely death.' Whether there are patients with the same condition, we also do not know. ”
Terumi said helplessly.
Obviously, regarding these considerations of Baishi, Wuyin Village has also investigated, but it has not gained much.
"So, can Junmaro's illness be cured?"
"It's not a question of whether it can be cured, his disease is very peculiar, and I am not sure. There are three options on my side. ”
Zishi groaned for a moment.
"What are the three types?"
"The first option is to just give up being a ninja."
Unsurprisingly, this proposal was clearly unacceptable.
Therefore, Shiraishi quickly gave the second plan: "The second plan, I will remove his corpse bone vein, his condition is caused by the blood inheritance limit of the corpse bone vein, as long as the corpse bone vein is removed, it can be restored to normal." ”
This plan also made Terumi frown.
"What about the third option?"
"Suppressed with medicine, but if he continues to use the ability of the Blood Inheritance Limit for a long time, I am afraid that he will not be able to live past the age of thirty."
Shiraishi was quick to come up with a third option.
There are pros and cons to all three options.
Terumi pondered for a while, and was about to say something, when Junmaro's weak voice came from the side:
Mr. Shiraishi... I opt for the third treatment option..."
Jun Maro's words made Shiraishi's eyes turn to him.
"Are you sure? That would make you live to be thirty years old. “
Thirty years old, for this era, dying at this age is already considered a short life.
"Well, I'm sure...... It was Yakura-sama who took me out of the cage and gave me a brighter future, and I want to continue to use my blood to inherit the limit and fight to protect the fog..."
Jun Maro looked at the ceiling light, although his tone was weak, but his words were full of unwavering faith.
"Really? Don't worry, I'll do everything I can to help you live a few more years. Moreover, maybe when you are thirty years old, my medical ninjutsu will take a step forward, and I will be sure to cure your illness completely. “
These were just Shiraishi's words of comfort, but Jun Malu still said gratefully:
"Excuse me, Mr. Shiraishi... Please help me with the surgery
