"It's really quite a unique existence."

The 'exchange' between Shiraishi and the Pure Land, from the beginning to the end, was finally given such an evaluation after a short silence.

There is no concrete image, and there is no ability to speak, but there is no doubt that although people cannot see it, it is indeed a communicative being, and it is not just a dead thing in the stereotyped impression.

And such a being has intelligent characteristics, and it is impossible to say whether this is a good thing or a bad thing.

In short, in the absence of a conflict of interest, live slugs will not provoke the mysterious and unknown realm of the Pure Land for no reason.

Even if the soul is to be managed by the Pure Land after death, as for when it will die, the living slug is not worried about such a thing.

In terms of its current vitality, it is still in a very young state, and even if it does die one day, and its soul goes to the Pure Land, it will probably be a thousand years later.

Moreover, the stronger the existence, the more specific the soul is, although the living slug is not a refined soul type of immortal art, but even if there is only a soul left, not everyone can covet it.

"Yes, summoning the Pure Land out, almost draining all the chakras in my body, it seems that if it is not necessary, the next time I need it, I have to try to compress the volume of the Pure Land to avoid consuming too much chakra."

Shiraishi took a deep breath, and the chakra in his body began to flow back, recovering quickly.

Generally speaking, if he signs a contract with a tailed beast, he uses most of his chakra as a bargaining chip to carry out psychic techniques, even if he summons a tailed beast, it is not a problem, and it can even guarantee that the tailed beast under his command can last for a long time.

But not in the Pure Land.

Summoning a Pure Land about the size of a tailed beast almost drained his chakra, and according to the information fed back by the spiritism, a Pure Land world of that size could only last less than thirty seconds.

After sending the Pure Land back to its original time and space, you also need to pay an additional chakra as a repatriation fee. Although I don't know what the consequences will be if I don't pay the additional repatriation payment, Shiraishi believes that it is necessary to maintain friendly relations with the existence of the Pure Land for the time being.

At least after 'there are people below', it will be much more convenient to perform reincarnation ninjutsu in the future, and when you encounter any problems.

"Probably because of the difference in 'quality', the Pure Land is an existence that has formed a world, even if it is only a part of the space that is summoned, it is much thicker than the rest of the creatures."

One is just a living body, and the other is a complete alternate space-time, and the level of the two is not at the same level in essence.

As for the explanation of live slugs, Shiraishi is also quite recognized.

As a world with wisdom, the Pure Land represents the sublime at the level of life, and it can no longer be regarded as a mortal thing on the biological level.

In a sense, this anomaly is not an exaggeration to call it a 'god'.

It's just that judging from the wisdom that is not complicated at this stage, even the so-called 'gods' are still in their infancy.

Even so, it's amazing enough.

"However, the Pure Land seems to like Shiraishi-sama's chakra very much, although I don't know what the future holds, but at this stage, it should be beneficial to Shiraishi-sama."

The living slug recalls the pure land expression of receiving the white stone chakra, and the joy it can sense with immortal magic.

"Is it because of 'purification'?"

Shiraishi asked rhetorically without thinking, he was somewhat aware of this.

Although he has a lot of abilities, for the Pure Land, none of his abilities are 'soul purification', which is more worthy of its different eyes.

The live slug replied, "Yes, although every living thing contains chakra, each person's chakra has more or less personal characteristics in it. For example, Lord Shiraishi can transform and reorganize the essence of chakra, and subtly, Lord Shiraishi's chakra will naturally have a corresponding atmosphere. ”

Chakra is not a constant layer, just like perceptual ninjutsu, which can be locked to a specific character according to the chakra characteristics of each ninja.

After all, if everyone's chakra is the same and does not have their own characteristics, then the effect of perceiving ninjutsu will be greatly reduced.

It is precisely because of the ability to distinguish the characteristic aura of each chakra that the perceptual ninja will become the most important 'eye' in the team, and no matter what you do, you can prepare in advance and be prepared.

The same is true for changing to Shiraishi.

Chakra, who carries the characteristic aura of a sorcerer, will naturally have a unique ability, and because of this ability, the Pure Land will want to see him differently, give him a psychic scroll, and make a contract.

Otherwise, why is he the only one who has done this for thousands of years?

At least according to what Shiraishi knew, there were not a few ninjas who could perceive the existence of the Pure Land in the past, but without exception, none of those people had reached a contract with the Pure Land. Otherwise, the contract scroll given to him by the Pure Land would not be as new as new, and it would be blank before he signed his name.

"Alright, the experiment on summoning the Pure Land has been completed, and although there are still many things that have not been solved, thank you for your help, live slug."

With Chakra's rapid recovery, Shiraishi's face slowly turned bloody, not as pale as before.

I thought that I should be very cautious about the use of the Pure Land.

Although it is used well, it is equivalent to having a trump card in hand, but the time and place of use must be carefully judged.

"No, I didn't help much. Next, Lord Shiraishi will be busy with the Fifth Shinobi War, and if there is any need, I will help as much as possible. ”

The live slug said.

As the ancestor of the Wet Bone Forest, it may not be very strong in combat power, but in the fields of life preservation and medical treatment, it can be said to be extremely good.

In its split state, all physical attacks are ineffective against it, coupled with its own powerful medical immortal arts, even if it encounters any blows, it can quickly recover its state, and it is this ability to continue fighting in the past that makes the White Snake Immortals in the Dragon Cave helpless against it.

"Let's talk about this later, and if there's a need, I'm not stingy to come here and ask for some help."

Shiraishi didn't refuse the live slug's request to help.

Although the medical system of the country of ghosts is quite complete at the military and civilian levels, the ability of the live slug is still not to be underestimated, and it can exert unparalleled power on the battlefield.

This kind of power was also reflected when Nagato instructed Payne Rokudo to attack Konoha. If it weren't for the fact that Tsunade summoned the live slugs at the first time when Payne attacked, then the Konoha ninja who died that day would not be the only one.

"Speaking of which, there's one thing I've always been weird about."

Shiraishi said in a confused tone as if he remembered something.

"What's the matter?"

"That is, what happens when the contractors are opposed to each other, and at the same time summon a part of your body as a living slug?"

Shiraishi asked so interestingly.

You know, now in addition to him, Tsunade is also a contractor of the Wet Bone Forest, and can summon part of the body of a living slug to fight.

"This thing? Although in the same era, there were few plural contractors, let alone antagonism between plural contractors...... The situation of Lord Shiraishi and Lord Tsunade is indeed strange. ”

The living slug was silent for a moment, and its tone was still calm, as if nothing was going on, which could make its mood fluctuate greatly.

This is probably the recuperation of immortals who have survived for thousands of years.

The concept of longevity is fundamentally different from that of short-lived species, and the perspective of looking at things is completely different.

Therefore, the live slug is not even a problem, and directly answers:

"Actually, this kind of thing has happened in the past, and generally speaking, I don't interfere in managing it. If that happens, and the opposing contractor summons my body at the same time, it will most likely revolve around the will of the corresponding contractor. ”

"In other words, will there be a showdown between the body and the body?"

"Well, although they are all things that have been separated from my body, the chakra required for summoning corresponds to different contractors, so it is part of the contract to act according to the will of the corresponding contractor. Moreover, if it were the rest of the psychic beasts, I might be troubled by this, but I didn't. ”

The live slug replied.

"Didn't you?"

"Because I have the ability to split, there are very few attacks in this world that can fatally injure me, and even if there is an antagonism between the body and the battle is commanded by the respective contractor, it is basically impossible to tell the winner from the loser. Since I can't tell the winner, this situation will naturally not bother me, and the final situation is still a battle between the contractor and the contractor himself. Most of what I can offer is still medical capabilities that will not be interfered with by foreign objects. ”

The live slug said.

Because it can be split, it ignores many attacks, and with the ability to heal, it can be said that even in many extreme environments, live can heal the contractor.

In comparison, its offensive capabilities are much inferior.

Shiraishi was thoughtful.

The live slug has made it very clear.

In the battle between him and Tsunade, he can command the summoned part of the body at will, but in order to truly distinguish the victory or defeat, it depends on the strength of the contractor himself.

As long as the difference in the size of the individuals summoned is not very large, the strength of the contractor himself is the key.

After solving some of the questions, Shiraishi didn't ask any more questions, unraveled the reverse psychic technique, and disappeared from the Wet Bone Forest Realm in a puff of light smoke.

For Baishi's departure, the wet bone forest also fell into silence again, and the living slug had long been accustomed to it, as usual, began to take a nap, and continued to sleep and precipitate its body.

"Lord Thunderkage, this is a letter from Takikure."

Yunyin Village, built in the middle of the mountains, is full of cliffs, and the Thunder Shadow Building is located in the most eye-catching position of the mountain, from which you can overlook the whole village of Yunyin.

Shangnin Azabui, who assisted Thunder Shadow in managing Yunyin's affairs, naturally walked in after knocking on the door, carrying a letter sent from Taki's hide.

Behind her, there was also the eight-tailed human pillar Rabbi Liki.

As a result of these two days of recuperation, the face that had been brutally beaten by the four generations of Thunder Shadow finally became swollen, but when he spoke, he still faintly felt that the muscles in his face were throbbing violently.

"Yo, Brother."

Compared with Abuyi's seriousness, Kirabi, who has been 'loved' by his brother's four generations of Thunder Shadow, still maintains an unobtrusive style, making it difficult to figure out what he is thinking.

"Hmph."

For Kirabi, the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow just snorted lightly, set his eyes on Azabui, and took the letter from the other party's hand.

It is printed with the ninja village logo of Takikushi Village, and it also has the family crest of the famous family of Taki-no-kuni, although it is issued in the name of the head of Taki-no-kushim Village, but it also represents the will of the entire Taki-no-kuni.

The Fifth Shinobi War is approaching, and there are countless countries wrapped in the war zone, and Takino Kuni is one of them, and almost the entire territory will be reduced to a battlefield.

This has nothing to do with the will of Takino Province and Takikure itself, even if several large countries contribute half of the country's territory, in this general situation, although small countries can be allowed to speak, but whether to decide or not is still the idea of the alliance of the five powers.

Or rather, in the hands of him, the head of the alliance of the five powers.

Therefore, Takiyin Village changed its usual strategy of swallowing its anger and even directly pretending to be dead, and began to have friendly and cordial exchanges with the alliance in a panic.

After all, in terms of territorial ownership, Takino Country is completely surrounded by the Alliance Powers, and it is wishful thinking to escape from which direction.

If you want to protect the country as high as possible, you can only go to war.

Neutrality?

That stance didn't exist from the beginning, it was just a matter of whether or not to fight.

"Takikure Village has agreed to join the alliance and obey all the commands of the alliance. They will produce a total of 3,000 ninjas, of which 15 are upper ninjas, between 300 and 400 middle ninjas, and the rest are lower ninjas...... Compared with before, the strength of Takiyin Village has declined a lot. ”

The four generations of Thunder Shadow looked at the troops that Takiyin planned to provide, and his brows couldn't help frowning.

There are a total of 3,000 people, and the proportion of upper ninjas is too small, and the middle ninja is only about one-tenth, and the rest are all lower ninjas.

Although compared to the rest of the small country ninja villages, the strength of Takikure Village is already considered a strong column. However, in the early days of the Ninja Village, the original Hokage Senju Pillar, who divided the tailed beasts, took into account that Takikure had good strength, so he handed over the seven tails to Takigakure for safekeeping.

At that time, Taki-yin, even if it was Yunyin, didn't dare to despise it too much.

But now it seems that the strength of this village is far inferior to even the rain hidden during the Third Ninja World War.

"I heard that over the years, in order to reduce the burden on the national economy, the daimyo of Takino Kuni has been cutting the funds of Takikushi Village for 20 years. Even during the period of the rise of the country of ghosts, it seems that Takushi's life was not very easy. ”

Azabui told the information he had gotten.

Although the tone was flat, there was also a faint sigh.

In the final analysis, the common problem of the one-country-one-village system lies in the imperfection of the system, which leads to the aristocratic group headed by the daimyo, and in some places, always likes to hinder the development of ninja villages.

A model of intimacy like the Daimyo Mansion of Cloud Hidden and Thunder Country is very rare in the ninja world.

Before the country of ghosts became the sixth power, there were many disagreements between the daimyo mansions of the other major powers and the ninja villages, and often due to political differences, the military expenses of the ninja villages were reduced, resulting in a lag in military development.

Takikuin Village is just one of the epitomes of the background of this era, sympathy is sympathy, but this kind of thing is not unusual, and Azabui is not strange.

"Forget it, these things have nothing to do with us, as long as they can send troops to assist the alliance, there is no need to deal with superfluous matters. Although the strength is a little weak, it is not completely useless. In addition, to contact more ninja villages, the alliance side needs more troops. ”

Although the number of ninjas who have been put together by the alliance has reached more than 100,000.

However, when the four generations of Thunder Shadow thought of the enemy they would face next, they still tried to gather as many ninja villages as possible before the war, became a part of the alliance, and contributed a part of their strength.

These ninja villages, if each village contributes some, it is also an incomparably huge force.

"There is contact over there, but many countries with ninja villages are in a wait-and-see state, and it may be difficult for them to contribute."

Azabui looked embarrassed.

Although there are many countries with ninja villages, there are definitely not a few.

Among the existing countries, there are at least 30 countries with ninja villages.

The number of ninjas in most of these ninja villages is only a few hundred, and rarely exceeds a thousand.

Some even have only a few dozen ninjas, and they gather together to form a small village, which can also call itself a ninja village.

"In addition, Lord Tsuchikage, Iwakure Village, has proposed that you can recruit some powerful bounty hunters from the black market. I heard that many behind-the-scenes bosses in the black market are secretly at odds with the country of ghosts. ”

Azabui said calmly.

"Black market?"

Four generations of Thunder Shadow contemplative.

He is clear about the contradiction between the country of ghosts and the underground black market.

The country of ghosts governs the territory and cracks down on all underworld forces, even pornography, gambling and drugs are banned, not to mention this kind of underground black market that relies on killing people for money, it is simply provoking the sensitive nerves of the country of ghosts.

In the jurisdiction of the Oni Country, there is no room for any existence of the black market, and it is not a joke.

Therefore, with a little use, the power of the underground black market can also be owned by the alliance to suppress and deal with the country of ghosts.

Then, he asked, "What are the strongest bounty hunter groups in the black market right now?" ”

"The most famous are the Xuan Ape Crowd, who have the legendary experience of defeating Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas, and have a mission completion rate of more than 95 percent, ranking first in the black market. However, it is reported that the Xuan Ape people secretly serve the Ghost Country, and they are a hidden army under the hands of the Ghost Country. ”

Azabuyi's expression became serious.

"Except for the Xuan Ape Crowd?"

"The Thunder Light Regiment, the leader of the organization, Chino, is suspected to be a survivor of the Blood Pool Clan, currently employed by the Peasant and Labor League of the Wave Country, and is active in the area of the Wave Country, most of them will not participate, but you can give it a try. In addition, there are also well-known bounty hunter teams such as 'Ninja', 'Shura', and 'Black Moon Clan', which have a good armed force. Among them, the 'Shinobi' and 'Shura Clans' are ninja organizations, and the 'Black Moon Clans' are composed of exiled samurai from various countries, and each member is very skilled in swordsmanship, and the task completion rate in the black market is more than 80 percent, and it is said that this group has now grown to hundreds of people. ”

"In that case, let's let the Tsuchikage secretly get in touch with the team of bounty hunters other than the Xuan Ape Clan."

The four generations of Thunder Shadow are not pedantic, and at such times, it is always good to have more power.

What's more, the bosses behind the scenes of the black market, as well as officials and tycoons from the Land of Thunder, are involved in dealing with some shady things.

Now that you are exposed to these bounty hunters, you are also a waste of use.

After dealing with these things, the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow looked at Kirabi, who was staying on the sidelines.

"Than."

“Brother。”

Kirabi tightened and quickly returned to his senses.

"Let me talk to Yao, I have something to ask Yao for verification."

The fourth generation of Thunder Shadow had a low voice and looked at Kirabi seriously.

Kirabi was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes were demented, but this kind of demented eyes did not last long, and they were replaced by a burst of clarity, but the eyes were different from Kirabi.

"Is there anything you want me to do, Fourth Generation Thunder Shadow?"

'Kirabi' asked in a dull voice.

"How much do you know about the Ten Tails and the Infinite Moon Reading?"

The fourth generation of Thunder Shadow took a deep breath, staring at 'Kirabi' without blinking.

'Kirabi''s pupils dilated instantly, and he didn't expect to hear such a strange and familiar term from the mouth of the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow.

"It seems...... At the Five Shadows Conference before, a lot of things happened. ”

'Kirabi' means something, something comes to mind.

"The leader of the Akatsuki organization, with the eye of reincarnation, and the information provided by the Oni Country, this organization is dedicated to collecting all tailed beasts, resurrecting the Ten Tails of the Ancient Era, and intends to unleash the infinite moon reading on the entire world."

The four generations of Thunder Shadow finished the content at the fastest speed.

Azabui also looked at 'Kirabi' with a curious expression.

"I see...... Reincarnation Eye? I didn't expect that there would be a ...... in this era" Different from the previous tone, the tone of 'Kirabi' deepened and deepened, making people feel a huge pressure, "Although I don't want to say anything about the blow, don't let that existence be resurrected in the end." To-Tails...... It was a complete monster, it was the aggregate of all our tailed beasts, and the very existence alone was enough to cause a change in heaven and earth. And the Infinite Moon Reading is also a forbidden technique that can destroy all life, and once it is unfolded, the whole world is over. ”

Although it was only half-believed before, but now that it has been personally verified by the Eight Tails himself, the four generations of Thunder Shadow no longer doubt the authenticity of the Ten Tails and the Infinite Moon Reading.

In other words, this war must be won, and there is no so-called retreat.

If it fails, the world could be doomed.

Even if the true purpose of the organization is to launch an infinite monthly reading in order to achieve the domination of the ninja world, as long as there is a 1 in 10,000 chance, the four generations of Thunder Shadow dare not gamble.

Only by destroying the other side and taking this power into the hands of the alliance can we have complete peace of mind.

It's the same with the country of ghosts.

Judging from the communication between Nagato and Chiba Shiraishi that day, they had a close communication in the past.

Sixteen years ago, the Nine-Tails broke out for no reason, and the sacrifice of the four generations of Hokage was also caused by them.

It can be said that these two people are the same thing, and both of them have extremely dangerous ideas. And being able to put dangerous ideas into practical actions is even more dangerous and terrifying.

"Azabui, you're in charge of handling the internal affairs of the village, and then I need to go to the Daimyo's Mansion to prepare for the war, and it's almost time to officially raise the agenda."

The heavy and depressed mood caused the four generations of Thunder Shadow to set off quickly, directly broke the window and went out, gathered his cronies and subordinates as quickly as possible, and hurried to the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Thunder.

Looking at the four generations of Thunder Shadow who never went out of the ordinary way, Ma Buyi could only temporarily take over the authority of the four generations of Thunder Shadow in desperation.
