27- Refusal
"So the sea beast you encountered was actually the Three-Tailed Iso?" Miyome Hokage's brows furrowed, as if he was thinking about something.
After returning to Konoha, Shimizu immediately went straight to the Hokage's office and directly reported the entire process of this S-class mission to the three generations of Hokage, Sarutobi Hizap, of course, the screened version.
"Yes. I had a hard time believing it at first, but what appeared in the port of Yunokuni was indeed Miao. This can also be attested to by the leader of the Tang Ninja. ”
"I see. In fact, it is already a blessing in misfortune that you can come back safely from this mission. There was a slight apology in the tone of the Miyome Hokage, the original intention was to let Shimizu relax and "send" him an S-class mission, how could he pull out a monster like Miaositari?!
"I will send someone to verify all the circumstances, and then wait for the official documents of Yuno Kuni to come, and this task can be doubled according to the agreement. You deserve it. Miyome Hokage added.
"Thank you, Hokage-sama!"
"You said that the tsunami at that time really spread from the northwest to the southeast? But Mio is nowhere to be found? The three generations Hokage once again confirmed that there was nothing wrong with Shimizu's statement.
"Yes. Pretty sure. ”
"You go back, have a good rest during this time." The three generations of Hokage instructed.
"Yes! Subordinates retire! ”
Shimizu left the Hokage's office straight away.
"Someone! It's called Watergate...... Let's do it yourself. Ask Zilai to come to my office. Ape Fei's voice was strong and powerful.
"Yes!" An answer from the Hokage's immediate shadows came from the air.
"Looks like something is going to happen......"
——————————————————————
With a heavy sense of exhaustion, Qing Shui returned to this empty home. This home was bought by Qing Shui with money saved in his early years, and some of the thoughts and emotions of the Chinese people were still brought to this world, and only when you have your own house can you call it "home".
Shimizu's house is far from the bustling central area of Konoha and is on the third floor of a small building, about 100 square meters. There are only some extremely simple furnishings in the three rooms, and they have not been home for more than a month, and they also have a thin layer of gray, which looks particularly bleak.
He was a little tired, lying on the bed and recalling the conversation with the Miyome Hokage...... There shouldn't be any flaws...... About any mutations, water escapes, thunder escapes, strange fish...... He didn't say a word. I wanted to ask the three generations of Hokage about the origin of the strange fish, but after all, I had some concerns, so I might as well pretend that I had never seen such a creature. As long as he had the heart to look up all the information about the three tails, he believed he could find out where the strange fish came from.
But only if no one knows that he might be related to the Strange Fish.
There is also speculation about the combination of the new technique and the chakra weapon, and it is not known when the swordsmith will be able to write back to him...... There is also the development of a new wind escape, which is a new and difficult goal...... He was really short of time...... I hadn't had a good rest for too long, and Qing Shui gradually closed his eyes......
He had a dream that his strength had increased by leaps and bounds, and the amount of chakra had increased greatly, and he finally became an elite shinobi. But there was always a pair of eyes behind him watching him...... He struggled to see the snooper behind him, and vaguely saw a pair of dark yellow vertical pupils......
Orochimaru!!
Qing Shui woke up suddenly.
"Just a dream." Qing Shui breathed a sigh of relief and laughed at himself, "Heh, how afraid I am of the Great Snake Pill. ”
Of course he was afraid of Qing Shui, how could he not be afraid? The first key in his body allowed him to break through from the middle ninja to the upper ninja, and obtained a super high chakra recovery speed; Now that he has a second key, he has many abilities: underwater stealth, a great talent for water escape, chakra by eating, and a high-speed recovery from injuries......
If Orochimaru becomes interested in him and discovers all this, it is really possible to slice it??
Risking to give Orochimaru his blood and body cells for the sake of the second generation of the Hokage Ninjutsu Codex before, is there really no problem??
When Shimizu was still worried about Orochimaru, two Konoha shadow ninjas suddenly appeared in his third-floor window.
"April clear water. Please come with us. Someone wants to see you. "The mechanical voice is not emotionless.
"Newspaper number." Qing Shui, who came back to his senses, said coldly.
It's night, and suddenly two shadows appear in the window and let him go out, what are you trying to do?!
"The 8th Brigade of the Second Army of the Konoha Shadow Division..."
"Is Tuanzang looking for me?" Shimizu directly interrupted the dark ninja's words. In Konoha, there are currently two Shadow Legions. The 1st Konoha Shadow Division is a direct unit of the Hokage, of which the 1st to 3rd Brigades are responsible for the security of the existence, and the 4th to 10th Brigades are the field departments. The Fifth Brigade where Qing Shui is located is a dark brigade that needs to go out on field missions frequently.
And the second legion of the Konoha Shadow Division is jointly controlled by the Konoha high-level. Among them, the first brigade is responsible for criminal trial, the second brigade is responsible for technology research and development, the third, fourth, and fifth brigades are the intelligence analysis department, and the sixth to tenth teams are the "private army" of the group, and only obey the orders of the dark ninjas of the group, that is, the "root".
Qing Shui immediately reacted, it was Tuan Zang looking for him.
"It's Danzo-sama! He invites you ......"
"Don't go. What else? Qing Shui interrupted the other party again.
“…… I wonder if you are interested in joining us? The root ninja said in a deep voice.
"Aren't I a member of the Shadows now?" Qing Shui said strangely.
"April Shimizu, you know we are roots. Naturally I know what I mean by joining. The Root Ninja said bluntly, "Or can I understand that you refuse to join us?" ”
"That's what you said. I never said I would say no. ”
“…… So you agreed?? The Root Ninja's tone softened slightly.
"When did I promise you again?" Qing Shui asked rhetorically.
"You're kidding me?!"
Qing Shui said coldly: "You want to do it?" Over here? Then the corners of his mouth pulled out a touch of arc, and he said with a smile, "You can try!" ”
The two root ninjas glanced at each other, and finally turned to leave, throwing down a string of cruel words that echoed here: "April Shimizu, don't be too rampant. Your level of forbearance is everywhere. It's your honor to appreciate you, but that doesn't mean you'll be connived up! You'll regret it! ”
Qing Shui knew very well that the label on his body was the faction of the Three Generations Hokage, even if it was just the periphery, it was the opposite of Danzo. There is no need to drip the muddy water of the roots, and what are the benefits of entering the roots?? This kind of person is Danzang...... Don't work with them! It seems to be a hero, but in fact it is too unscrupulous. If you don't have a certain strength to go to him, you will be eaten and there will be no bones left.
So it's good that he refuses outright.
If you go to see Tuanzang in private and get some moths, you really can't wash it by jumping into the Yellow River.
And according to Tuanzang's personality, 100% dug a pit and waited for him to jump.
So simply don't see it!
Respond to all changes with the same!
Qing Shui thought that he had done all this perfectly, and he could continue his obscene development plan with peace of mind, but what he didn't expect at all was that no matter how he bypassed this, he would eventually return here, and these things would continue to haunt him.
It feels like a predetermined fate, unavoidable and helpless.
Sometimes, a coin is tossed. After landing, it is neither positive nor negative, but straight and upright, such a small probability of things can't help but make people exclaim "fate is so".
