With the ship docked in port, the multi-day journey at sea finally came to an end.

This mission of the intelligence officer who was supposed to work inside Konoha was, on the whole, a successful completion.

Although in the process, Thunder Ming Pill was accidentally involved in the tailed beast jade attack launched after the Nine-Tails Human Pillar Force went berserk, but considering the nature of the regeneration of the clone, Bai Shi only sighed a little about Thunder Pill's sacrifice, and he didn't even feel sad.

On the deck of the ship's third-story building, located relatively close to the battery, there are no more idlers approaching here.

Shiraishi pressed the railing with both hands, blowing a cool sea breeze, and the sun shining down from the sky dispelled some of the coolness, making him feel quite comfortable.

After the aircraft carrier battleship docked, Shiraishi did not get off the ship as soon as possible, but stayed here and acted like someone else.

After about a few minutes, as the sound of shoes on the deck sounded, Shiraishi knew that someone was approaching him, and he knew who it was without thinking.

"Aami-san, have you thought it through? These three days should be enough time for you to make up your mind, right? ”

Shiraishi turned around and scanned the visitor with his back against the guardrail.

He was still wearing a white hospital gown, and his face still looked a little pale, looking like he had just recovered from a serious illness.

It is Asami Masumi.

Leaving her three days to think about it, in Shiraishi's opinion, it was enough for the other party to think about the pros and cons clearly.

After resurrecting his fiancé, he continued to work for himself...... Or according to the original deal, since then parting ways.

Shiraishi just quietly waited for Asami Masumi's decision, and did not rush the other party.

"What you call the resurrection of the dead...... Is it true? ”

Asami Masumi asked the question with a dull face.

There are many forbidden techniques in this world, bringing the dead back to life, even if they are among the forbidden arts, they are also forbidden techniques within forbidden arts.

If she didn't know what Shiraishi was, she would have thought it was the other party's joke.

Even if you just peek at the corner of the cause and effect of life and death, you know that the horror of this forbidden technique is by no means beyond the grasp of ordinary ninjas.

"It's true...... I've proven this ability many times. Although the conditions for resurrection are harsh and there are many restrictions for me, Takeshi Fujisaki is within the conditions of resurrection and will not have any problems. I don't think Asami should worry too much about this problem. ”

Shiraishi replied with a smile, a faint confidence streaming from the smile on his face, and continued to ask:

"How? It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and I wouldn't normally make it easy to promise. After all, performing reincarnation ninjutsu too many times is also a huge burden for me. ”

"Am I supposed to be honored?"

Asami Masumi raised an eyebrow.

She was not surprised by this kind of restriction.

The reason why forbidden art is forbidden art is because this ability is a double-edged sword.

"No, it's you who have the value that allows me to perform reincarnation. I think that by leaving you in the country of ghosts, you can create more wealth than a single reincarnation ninjutsu. ”

Shiraishi chose to tell the truth.

The cultivation of medical ninja is still one of the top issues that ninja villages in various countries attach great importance to.

An excellent medical ninja like Asami Masumi is difficult to find a few people in the entire Oni Country. Among the rest of the big ninja villages, they are also high-end talents who have attracted much attention and have a pivotal position in the medical ninja industry.

A reincarnation ninjutsu in exchange for the other party's decades of work for the rest of his life is a very cost-effective deal in Shiraishi's opinion.

This is also the only condition that he can impress the other party.

Other than that, he didn't know what conditions to take to let the other party continue to serve the country of ghosts.

"That's a great proposition...... Not only my fiancé, but even my life for the rest of my life has been arranged, and I don't need to go to exile anymore. ”

Asami Masumi's expression and eyes are very complicated, and there is an inexplicable color hidden.

Shiraishi listened quietly, without any response, and looked directly at the other party, trying to see something from it.

As if she had made some kind of big decision, she took a deep breath, and a faint bitter smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"If I had gone back to 21 years ago, I would probably have agreed without hesitation. However, what I love is the man who will die for the will of fire, and the same thing he loves is what I was twenty-one years ago......"

Asami Masumi's eyes were hollow, her lips were tightly sensitive, as if she was cold in the cold wind, and her body trembled slightly.

Shiraishi fell silent and didn't say a word.

"Honestly, I don't want to show people who I am...... This ugly, hateful and crazy appearance makes even me feel disgusting and ridiculous......"

Lowering her head and looking at her toes, Asami Masumi's tone was very complicated.

Time can change everything, and it can also make people unrecognizable and not like themselves.

That man, from beginning to end, practiced his own path and died for his ideals.

After the resurrection, how will he feel about his current self?

Such a question, just by imagining it, makes you feel scared.

"Don't think about it again?"

Shiraishi sighed, and seemed to feel the determination in the other party's tone.

"Well, no, thank you for your kindness. I thought about it carefully, I was twenty-one years ago, and I was not the same person as myself...... Bringing a dead soul belonging to the past back into this world will not change anything. So, let this beauty stay in the past forever and don't defile it. ”

Asami shook her head self-deprecatingly, rejecting Shiraishi's kindness.

From the excitement at the beginning, to the complexity, and finally to a dazed fear...... She knew that if she refused such a condition, she would also suffer a lot in her heart and feel deep remorse.

Even so, she decided to give up.

For yourself, for your dead fiancé, it's the best outcome.

"Really? It's a pity. ”

"I'm sorry."

"You don't need to apologize to me, it's a bargain you and I want. And, perhaps because of my lack of consideration, what you are talking about is indeed a problem. ”

It is indeed a good thing to resurrect a loved one who has died.

But if you think about it, this kind of resurrection may not necessarily develop in a good direction.

Twenty years is enough to cause changes like vicissitudes, and after all, Asami Masumi is no longer the girl who faced her fiancé in the past, with a bit of innocence and longing, but is close to middle age......

When I think about it, I'm taking it for granted.

"So, where are you going after that, have you figured it out?"

Shiraishi blew the sea breeze and swept his gaze to the sea covered in mist.

Asami Masumi's eyes also fell there, she took off the glasses that were mist, wiped the mist on them with a handkerchief, and then a faint smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, and said with emotion:

"I don't know, I'm not interested in the strife of the countries in the ninja world, probably just find a quiet place, and then open a small clinic, and live the rest of my life ordinarily."

◎

"In other words, Aami-senpai finally decided to leave, right?"

In the laboratory, Shiraishi put Lei Mingmaru's body on the operating table, and Lin said regretful words next to him.

"Well, after all, everyone has their own aspirations, and it's not good for me to force the other party to join the country of ghosts. And Konoha has already confirmed the fact of her death, and there will be no more pursuit troops in the future, with her ability, even if she is alone, she can live well. ”

Shiraishi nodded.

The ninja world is not big, but it is not small, and in some places, even the country of ghosts and the other five major powers are difficult to reach, and it is impossible to spread the intelligence network to every corner.

Masumi Asami is not only a medical ninja, but also a sentient ninja, and if she wants to, she can disguise herself to avoid the strife of the ninjas.

And in addition to the funds that the other party has accumulated in Konoha over the years, including before leaving, he also gave the other party 500 million taels as a reward for working in the country of ghosts over the years, in terms of quality of life, this money is enough to ensure that she has no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life, and she does not need to beg for a living in the underground black market for a small profit, so as to expose her identity as a ninja.

Even so, Shiraishi still felt regretful.

But if this is a decision made by the other party himself, Shiraishi can only respect and bless it.

I hope that this old classmate, who has known each other for nearly 30 years, can live the rest of his life safely and worry-free, and will not get involved in the strife of the ninja world again.

Once involved in the battle between ninjas, even a strong upper ninja may not be able to guarantee their own safety.

"Didn't you ask her where she was going to settle down?"

She didn't say, I didn't ask, she took what belonged to her from me, disguised herself, and left. I guess she didn't want to be bothered by anyone. ”

Shiraishi picked up the scalpel and expertly sliced open Thunderingmaru's body, tearing the flesh and skin, looking for something inside.

"But it's hard to live alone, after all, sometimes trouble will come to you."

There are many dangers in the ninja world, and Rin is still a little worried about whether the other party can survive well.

"Don't worry about this problem, I gave her the psychic contract of General Tu, and if she encounters a last resort, she will not be stingy to ask for help. It's just that at that time, she wanted to avoid the strife of the ninjas, and she couldn't avoid it. ”

Therefore, Shiraishi hopes that the other party will use the psychic contract of the earth general, but on the other hand, Shiraishi also hopes that she will not need the contract to summon the earth general for the rest of her life.

Because once this contract is used, it means that the other party will be involved in this bloody ninja world again.

In this world, there are fewer and fewer people who can communicate with him on an equal footing, and he doesn't want this one to have an accident.

"Okay, let her deal with this kind of problem by herself, as outsiders, we can only silently send blessings in the back. Next is the repair issue of the Thundering Pill...... Although the 'nucleus' has not been damaged, it is not so easy to repair. ”

Shiraishi took out a 'nucleus' similar to a heart from Thundering Maru's body.

This 'core' in Shiraishi's hand, although very weak, does exude a strong vitality, beating gently, so that people can faintly hear the heartbeat of 'dong dong'.

It proves that Thunder Ming Maru is not completely dead.

It's just that the brain and body have been hit hard and are in a state of scrap.

Lin stood on the other side of the operating table, wearing the same white coat as Shiraishi, but the model of the clothes was slightly smaller, and the palm of the white glove touched Lei Mingmaru's body, and there was a hint of shock in his eyes.

"The destruction is really complete, the flesh is basically dead, and a new torso needs to be recreated."

"The nine-tailed beast jade in the four-tailed state is not so easy to bear. Compared to the rest of the tailed beasts, the strength of the Nine-Tails was too abnormal. ”

Shiraishi sighed.

What's more, the Nine-Tails in Naruto's body are only half a head.

The other half of the Nine-Tails was sealed inside the body of the Water Gate.

It's just a half-headed and nine-tailed four-tailed state, and there is such a powerful tailed beast jade...... Should it be said that it is worthy of being the strongest tailed beast?

"The broken flesh is useless, let's destroy it later. As for the new body, the materials are being transferred from the warehouse and will arrive here in about an hour. ”

"What about the blueprints? Or is it to keep the Thundering Pill in the same form as before? ”

Lin nodded, and began to cut off Lei Mingmaru's body with a scalpel, and his movements were impartial and without the slightest shaking.

Dissecting a cadaver was almost as ordinary for her as eating and drinking, without the slightest discomfort.

"Drawings...... You say that, the appearance of the Thunder Pill is indeed not a deterrent. In that case, let's get him a more powerful body. ”

Although the materials used to shape the body of the doppelganger are very precious and the cost is extremely high, with the current reserves of various resources in the country of ghosts, it is fully capable of exchanging a more powerful body with Thunder Ming Pill.

At the beginning of the design of the Thunder Ming Pill, due to the lack of funds and materials, after shaping the Heavenly Feather Girl, it was found that only a small half of the materials were left, so he had to cut corners and continuously reduce the size of the other party.

Until after completion, the volume was only slightly larger than that of a domestic cat.

This point has always made Shiraishi feel regretful.

According to the original concept, Shiraishi wanted to design the Thunder Pill as a four-legged beast that could be ridden by an adult...... It backfired, shaping it into a thunder beast the size of a house cat.

Thinking of this, Shiraishi put down the scalpel and took off his white gloves.

"Lin, the work here is handed over to you, and it seems that I need to go to the warehouse in person for the material matter."

With a happy mood, Shiraishi turned and left the laboratory.

◎

At the same time, the Land of Iron.

Inside the snow castle, which is tightly guarded by thousands of samurai who can use chakra, the Hokage of Konoha, the Earth Shadow of Iwakure, the Mizukage of Mista and the Wind Shadow of Sand Hide, four shadows from different countries and villages gather here.

Ruri, who negotiated the armistice affairs of the country of ghosts, was also in attendance.

These five people negotiated the truce of the Fourth Ninja World War.

Although the war lasted for a very short time, it also laid a new pattern for the ninja world and had a far-reaching impact on future generations.

If the traditional five powers are only big powers in the traditional sense, then the country of Oni, as the victor of this war, can be called a 'superpower'.

In the absolute disadvantage of one enemy and four enemies, he successfully repelled and defeated the ninja alliance of Shikoku, and easily destroyed the holy land that has been passed down for thousands of years, Myoki Mountain.

The military power displayed seems to be no longer able to look at the country of ghosts as a great power in the traditional sense.

This neutral country, which was originally only a concentration of shrine maidens, began to rise around the time of the Third Ninja World, and finally surpassed the great powers at an exaggerated speed, and for others, even if they can't believe it, they have to admit this fact.

Except for the cloud-hidden thunder shadow, almost all the military representatives of the great powers gathered here.

The military representatives of each major country carried at least 10 or more upper ninjas and more than 100 middle ninjas, scattered inside and outside the castle to serve as escorts for the work of participating in the talks.

As the host of the neutral party, Mifune, the general of the Iron Country, is naturally the best of the best.

As a strong ninja world second only to the Five Shadows, he follows the neutral will of the Iron Country, and is only responsible for guiding the work this time, and is not directly involved in it.

The samurai don't need to get involved in the ninja strife.

Only in this way can the safety of the samurai be guaranteed.

This era is no longer dominated by monks, shrine maidens, samurai, and ninjas.

The number of ninja monks in various countries has decreased sharply in recent years, and the military market has been hollowed out by ninjas.

The samurai are the only country in the Iron Country.

And the shrine maidens are also concentrated in a country of ghosts, not as widely distributed and densely distributed as ninjas.

In this day and age, the consequences of intervening in the disputes of ninjas are very serious.

The reason why the shrine maidens of the Oni Country dared to do this was not only because of the special nature of their positions, but also because of the military power that the Oni Country now held, so that they could not be interfered with by the ninjas, and they could further exaggerate their influence.

The samurai of the Iron Country can only live in a corner and barely protect themselves.

In this case, although Mifune has a headache to reconcile the strife of the ninjas of the great powers, on the surface, he still has to show enough patience.

I only hope that this meeting can end soon, such a powerful force, if you stay in the Iron Country for a long time, Mifune will not feel stable for a day, like walking a tightrope, and her nerves will continue to be tense.

Military representatives of the five major powers sat down around the round table.

Mifune stood at the round table and did not take a seat, but participated in the meeting as a witness.

Look at the five people and engage in a verbal exchange of words.

Tsuchikage Onoki's complexion is extremely unsightly, making it unclear whether he is in disguise or if he is really being forced into a desperate situation.

also has a bad face, and Luo Sha, the wind shadow.

The Oni Country side demanded that all the land annexed by Sand Hide in this war be returned to the Oni Country, and that resources and money be compensated.

The same is true for Kishigakure and Konoha, where all the losses of the Oni Country are made up by the defeated side.

Although it was not officially determined which side was the defeated side, the Shikoku Ninja Alliance did not directly shout to admit defeat.

But this time they took the initiative to negotiate the agreement, in order to curb the offensive posture of the Oni Country. Then, according to the current form, the country of demons will default to the ninja alliance army of the four major powers as the weak defeated side. In the negotiations, as the negotiator of the country of ghosts, Ruri, naturally has to show the victorious side, an aggressive offensive attitude.

With such an arrogant and snobbish attitude, Onoki will be hit hard, but he is angry enough.

Alas.

Looking at Ruri, who was still in a strong position under the persecution of the four shadows, Mifune couldn't help but envy such a strong force while being afraid.

There is not a single person who does not want his country to be strong.

The reason why Ruri attacked so recklessly at the meeting, in addition to her own strong strength, was also because of the country of ghosts standing behind her.

Let her have a slight upper hand even in the face of the four shadows, and she will not be constrained by force.

While force cannot solve all problems, it can definitely solve most of them.

The first round of negotiations did not end until 12 o'clock in the evening.

Although the parties exchanged a lot of armistice conditions through words, in the end, because Liuli was not satisfied with some of the exchange of interests, they probably thought that only compensating for this thing could not show their status as the victorious side at all, so they hastily settled it.

Standing at the window of the hallway, the wind and snow outside were blowing on the earth, and the glass of the window was trembling and shaking.

The glass stands here and looks out at the night view outside.

As a country that is in winter, just like the Snow Country, the snowy night scenery of the Iron Country is also a must.

But this view, only for ninjas.

For those who even have food and clothing as a problem, people in remote areas only feel that this kind of scenery is no less than the call of death.

There was the sound of footsteps beside him.

It is Mifune, the general of the Iron Country.

Liuli's gaze moved away from the snow outside the window, and she had been standing here since the first round of negotiations was over, and did not return to her room immediately.

First, she still has plenty of energy, and secondly, she also needs to think about how to proceed with the second round of negotiations.

After this round of confrontation, she barely figured out the bottom line of the conditions for countries to cede their interests.

But what is really finalized and how much compensation will be obtained in the end still needs to be carefully considered.

According to her estimates, it will take at least three to four rounds of negotiations before a decision can be made.

But on the surface, the country of ghosts still has to take an active attitude towards war, continuously sending troops and combat readiness resources to the border, making a posture of general attack on various countries, and striving to cut a little more flesh from the bodies of each country.

Especially on the side of the Earth Country, there are 3,000 ninjas, 10,000 non-ninja soldiers, nearly 1,000 armored artillery vehicles, and 150 flying ninja equipment, and then Ayane is in command...... It gives people a strong posture of wanting to annex the entire land of earth and Iwakure.

If it weren't for that, this Tsuchikage wouldn't have dragged the countries together so quickly to make an armistice.

After all, this Tsuchikage can't afford to gamble anymore.

"Your Excellency Mifune, are you going to be a lobbyist when you came here so late?"

Liuli's gaze swept over the three ships.

Neutral country is an extremely ambiguous word.

In this ninja world, there is no country that can maintain complete neutrality.

Maintaining a neutral situation is a situation of international stability.

However, with the transformation of the international landscape in recent years, the identity of a neutral country cannot make the top management of the Iron Country feel at ease.

The military power displayed by the Oni Country made the Iron Country feel feared as well.

After all, after this battle, the status of the country of ghosts has been tacitly regarded as a great power that surpasses the great powers.

Therefore, it is not incomprehensible in itself to retain the reputation of neutrality, but the essence is inclined to the weaker powers, huddling together for warmth.

It's all about better survival.

For example, in this war, the Fire Nation wants to curb the development momentum of the Ghost Country, all for its own stable rule.

Mifune was a little embarrassed in his heart, but his face was still impassive.

He himself didn't want to get involved in this negotiation, but the daimyo and other high-level officials of the Iron Country secretly leaned towards weaker countries, and faintly had the idea of joining an alliance led by Konoha.

The rise of the Ghost Country was already plundering the arms market of the Iron Country. Now that the other party has gone one step further and defeated the ninja alliance of the four great powers, the Iron Country must also make some bad preparations.

"As a mediator, I should not have been allowed to intervene in this dispute. However, Your Excellency Ruri, I should be able to guess the thoughts of our samurai lord, and I don't think any country can maintain its composure about the strength of your country today. ”

Mifune said with emotion.

In the past, although Konoha could also have many enemies, it was not dealt with centrally at one time, but it was solved one by one by one by place and time.

In addition, the three generations of Hokage of Konoha adopted a policy of appeasement to the outside world, so the ninja world pattern dominated by the Fire Country and Konoha is, on the whole, relatively stable and will not destroy the interests of the original class.

But this time, the country of ghosts is at war with four major powers at the same time, and there is still the strength to solve the Miaomu Mountain...... Coupled with the strong style that the Oni Country has always shown, it is even better than the Land of Thunder and Yunyin, which is exactly what worries and fears the countries.

On the surface, the country of ghosts said that it would not intervene in the internal politics of various countries, but the ideology and military equipment it sent to many small countries were the root cause of internal wars in small countries again and again.

The country of waves is the first experimental base of the country of ghosts, and overall, it is considered lucky, because it is backed by the country of fire, and it is too far away from the country of ghosts, and it is difficult to control remotely, so it is out of the control of the country of ghosts.

But today's small countries such as the country of Chi have secretly begun to lean towards the country of ghosts, but they have become the sharp minions distributed by the country of ghosts.

And the big countries now seem to have a sign, such as the water country, which has often suppressed domestic riots recently, and constantly let the fog hide carry out bloody suppression of the rioting people, and it is a mess.

"We will not make any further changes to the basic conditions. If you want to make changes, you can only see the real thing on the battlefield. ”

Liuli replied lightly.

"To what extent should the compensation be carried out on this basis?"

Mifune wants to know the upper limit of the Oni Country.

After all, insatiable greed will only make the talks worse.

"Your Excellency Mifune, you have made a mistake."

Ruri stared at Mifune's stunned face.

"The so-called ceiling is something they should consider, not for me to solve. If they firmly believe that they have not lost on the battlefield and want to save their losses and face, our side will not hesitate to fight again. It's just that if it fails again this time, it won't be as simple as compensation. ”

Mifune sighed in his heart.

Yes, it was not the country of ghosts that initiated the armistice negotiations, but the result of the secret negotiations of the country of the earth.

On the one hand, he threatens the country of ghosts, and on the other hand, he has to propose an armistice agreement to the country of ghosts, forming a weak peace.

"If nothing else, then I'll take my leave. As for tomorrow's second round of negotiations, please get them ready. ”

Leaving this sentence, Ruri walked down the corridor towards the rest point where the country of ghosts was located.

Mifune watched the other party leave, frowning in distress, thinking about how to reply to the weak party's Tsuchikage and the others next.

Judging from the attitude shown by Ruri, it seems that the country of ghosts is actively preparing for war and wants to further expand the war.

This news is a very bad sign for the land country.

In the event of another conflict, no one can guess whether the coalition forces will win in the end, but the land country will definitely bear the brunt of the devastating blow.
