Chapter 9: The Gift of the Ghost Lantern and Water Moon

Konan sits at Butterfly Shinobi's desk, organizing language to ask if Muichiro is an android.

The color of the lower half of Muichiro's hair, and even the three chakra attributes that he was born with, may be a coincidence, but only the warmth of the blood-linked connection, Xiao Nan still feels incredible when he thinks about it.

She has been an orphan for as long as she can remember, and her closest people are Yahiko and Nagato. The three are called partners, but they are actually brothers and sisters.

Now more than 20 years have passed in a blink of an eye, Yahiko has been dead for a long time, Nagato's character leopard has become far away, and none of the members of the (former) Xiao organization who worked hard together have been left.

Although Yoshiyu, Kyojuro, and Butterfly Shinobu are all very good people, to be honest, Konan has always felt that there is some kind of fundamental estrangement between himself and the three of them - as if they are not creatures from the same world.

It's not what she feels like alone.

Most of the adults in the Land of Rain who have developed their own values are unable to understand the thoughts and practices of these three people.

The first is Yoshiyuki Uchiha, and there are very few people in the Land of Rain who know about him.

This man is silent and does his own thing, wandering all year round, quietly investigating cases of missing persons that have nothing to do with him.

However, once the initiator is found, whether the other party is a ninja of a great country or a relative confidant of a daimyo, Uchiha Yoshiyong will kill him when he says so, so he is wanted by the Three Kingdoms, and the bounty is rising, exceeding the sum of the bounties of the four generations of Kazekage and the two generations of Mizukage.

Secondly, Butterfly Shinobi, the greatest benefactor of the Land of Rain.

Obviously he has the strongest blood inheritance limit in the entire ninja world, but he has no interest in promoting force.

She detoxified the lake outside Yuyin Village and raised fish, cultivated rice that could be grown on slightly toxic soil, eradicated at least 12 infectious diseases, and single-handedly established hospitals, schools, and orphanages in the Land of Rain. Butterfly Shinobi not only wants to popularize education, but even put forward the crazy idea of "letting everyone control the chakra", hoping to narrow the gap between ordinary people and ninjas as much as possible.

Finally, it is also the purgatory Kyojuro that Xiao Nan is familiar with.

As far as she knew, the small countries that received Kyojuro's help included the country of rivers, the country of forests, and the country of birds, and it was not just the country of rain.

This is also what makes it difficult for Xiao Nan to accept when he thinks about it. It seems that where there is a need, Kyojurou will dissipate heat there.

Whether it's the country of rain, she, even fragrant phosphorus and apricot branches, it's not special to Xingjuro. Because the amount of sunlight shines on everyone, and it is always equal.

Because of the above reasons, in the past few years, the relationship between Xiao Nan and the three of them has been stuck at the level of "cooperation" and has never been able to go further.

After all, these three people, they are not clearly on the side of the rain country, but on the side of all the oppressed. Therefore, this kind of estrangement is something that Xiao Nan, who was born in the country of rain, cannot overcome.

Now, a new country of rain is about to be born, but Xiao Nan is looking around, but he can't find anyone who can really share his joy, tension and sorrow.

If only she had never had a bond with others, but as long as she experienced the surging emotion of "willing to give everything for the person she loves" experienced even once, the loneliness would become very difficult, and as she grew older, the blurring of memories became more and more intense.

Until today.

The moment I saw Shitou Muichiro, the feeling I hadn't felt for a long time—the urge to give everything for it without thinking—finally returned.

Therefore, if Muichiro is really the so-called "artificial human", Xiao Nan hopes that he can ask him to come over from the hands of Butterfly Shinobi and raise and take care of him with his own hands.

The problem now is that Nan is worried that this request will affect the cooperation between the Land of Rain and Butterfly Shinobi.

If Butterfly Shinobu is really an artificial human created by Orochimaru using the cells between the Thousand Hands Pillars, as the rumors say, then it is likely that she just wants to make a kind of companion to accompany her, after all, at least her relationship with Yiyong does not seem to be very harmonious-

The reservoir downstream of the hydropower station that currently supplies power to Yuyin Village was created by those two people who fought a fight.

In short, man always treats others as he treats others. Xiao Nan subconsciously hopes to rely on Muichiro to relieve his loneliness, so he thinks that Butterfly Shinobu is also for the same reason.

She sat quietly in her chair, her brain spinning like a fan blade, thinking about how to phrase her words so that she could appear firm without being too aggressive and arouse the hostility or disgust of Butterfly Shinobi.

She was thinking so hard that she didn't even notice that a puddle of colorless liquid was seeping through the crack in the window facing the wisteria tree.

It flowed down the wall to the ground, as if self-conscious, and silently approached Xiao Nan from the dead end of its field of vision, and came directly behind her.

Immediately afterward, the clear liquid quickly converged towards a point. What was originally a long beach like a stream turned into a column more than a person high in a blink of an eye, and finally changed into a human form.

When Xiao Nan realized that something was wrong, a sheathed katana was already across her neck. The knife was held by an arm that was not covered by a sleeve.

Almost instantly, she made the following judgment—the arm was thin, it wasn't supposed to be an adult, its complexion was fair and transparent, it had no obvious muscles, and it didn't have any conspicuous blood vessels—it was enough to determine the identity of the other party.

"You're dead!"

After the person behind him pretended to be fierce and said this, before he could continue to make any movements, Xiao Nan turned into countless paper shurikens and flew behind him, directly penetrating the body of the person who came, and finally gathered in a corner of the office.

She clasped her hands together in the shape of the seal of the tiger, and called out the name of the person with a serious face: "Ghost Lantern Shuiyue, when did you come back?" ”

"Just now!"

The ghost lantern Shui Yue, who was pierced by the paper shuriken through hundreds of holes, quickly recovered his body, and just wanted to pounce on it to continue this "contest", but when he saw that Xiao Nan's hands seemed to be in a posture of fire escape, he suddenly subconsciously glanced down at his body, only to find that his body was actually covered with detonation charms.

Although the detonation charm can't kill him, once it is detonated, his body will definitely turn into countless scattered small droplets, and if he wants to gather and form it at that time, he will need a large amount of chakra......

The point is, it doesn't matter if you blow him up, but if you blow up the old witch's office—

"Alright, alright, that's all for today!"

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue threw down the white-sheathed katana in his hand, waved his hand at Xiao Nan, and then asked with a grin while tearing the explosive talisman on his body: "I said Aunt Angel, you don't work in the building over there, why are you running here?" ”

A nondescript "angel aunt" made Xiao Nangang's hands have an urge to shake them back.

She floated slowly, not answering the ghost lantern water moon's question, but with a flick of her hand, the detonating charms quickly flew back, like post-it notes on her clothes, and then slowly merged with her body.

To be honest, the bodies of these two people are quite similar to each other to some extent.

"Alas, what a pity."

I don't know if the ghost lamp Shui Yue is talking about some detonation charms or referring to his own "wonderful performance."

He picked up the white-sheathed katana that was on the ground, drew it out of his body, and in an instant, the cold light of the sword lowered the entire room.

Xiao Nan could see that for some unknown reason, the ghost lantern Shui Yue should be showing off the weapon in his hand.

But she didn't know anything about the ninja knife, she only felt that this knife looked a little quaint, and although the curvature of the blade was similar to the ninja knife, it was a double blade inside and outside.

[It's not like something from this era......]

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue waved his katana dissatisfiedly: "I originally sneaked in to teach that old witch a lesson, but I didn't expect it to be you in the office." ”

"Do you think her sword isn't sharp enough?" Xiao Nan said sarcastically.

"So what?"

In the place where the butterfly ninja is not there, it is impossible for him to admit it.

Ghost Lantern Shui Yue shrugged her eyebrows, and actually raised the weapon in her hand: "My sword is not disadvantaged!" ”

Then, under Xiaonan's shocked gaze, she slashed her katana into Butterfly Shinobi's desk, slashing off the corner of it.

"Hahaha, sure enough, the iron solid wood strengthened with Mu Dun can't stop this knife!"

The ghost lantern water moon was ecstatic.

It must be known that iron solid wood is the hardest wood known to the ninja world, and ordinary ninjas can't even hit steel nails, but he didn't expect that he just held this knife and waved it casually, easily cutting it off - the iron solid wood generated by the butterfly ninja with wood escape is several times stronger than natural.

"How's that, this knife ......"

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue turned his head excitedly, and was about to introduce his origin to Xiao Nan, but what he didn't expect to see was the door that was pushed open, and the butterfly ninja who was surrounded by a group of white coats, who seemed to be smiling.

The youngest of the group in the white coat Taketori Gangsaku applauded silently, and gave a thumbs up to the ghost lantern Suigetsu, looking very sincere.

And Xiao Nan, who was originally going to discuss important matters with Butterfly Ninja, took half a step back.

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue froze in place for a second, and then smiled all over his face: "That...... I was going to glue the table. ”

Five minutes later.

"I really didn't expect it."

Butterfly Shinobu patted the left side of the face of the ghost lantern Suigetsu who was hanging on the wall by the vines with her scabbard.

"It's not enough to say bad things about me everywhere in Yuyin Village, because I didn't want to help in the hospital, I fled back to the water country without permission, and it was less than an hour after I came back, and I vandalized public property in my office......"

She looked up at the ghost lamp Shui Yue, sighed and said, "It seems that I can't control you, so I can only write a letter to Yiyong to explain the situation...... As for the eleventh type of Water Breathing, you should simply not learn it. Lest he have to face his own tricks when he cleans the portal one day, how sad it is......"

"Don't! I'll just point to the one who lives! ”

The ghost lantern Shui Yue, who was drained of Chakra by Mu Dun, begged for mercy miserably, "I will do whatever you say, please don't sue the teacher!" Go to the hospital and give those ...... I'm willing to bring a moonlit night pot to the patient! ”

Butterfly Shinobu looked at him without speaking, with a playful expression.

"Three months? Half? One year! A year is always okay, right? ”

"Well, then you should remember what you said today. If you can't remember, this recorder will remind you. ”

Butterfly Shinobu raised the iron box he was holding in his left hand and pressed the button to stop recording, "You know, your teacher is a person who admits death, and the most disgusting ones are those who break their promises, you must not be planted in this kind of thing." ”

The handle of "......" was pinched, and the ghost lamp Shuiyue wanted to cry without tears, and then he aimed at Butterfly Shinobi's right hand, "That, can you give me back the knife......"

"Aren't you going to give me a year's job in the hospital? What do you want this thing for? It is enough for us to use only a bone saw and a scalpel here. ”

Butterfly Shinobu glanced at him with a warning look, "Until you make good on your promise, I'll find a place to lock this knife." Of course, it's a place you won't find. ”

"Lock, lock up?" Ghost Lantern Shui Yue's face was full of regret, "But it's ......"

"Don't have that expression, I'll pay you back in a year. Besides, if you take it all day long, you'll be in the hospital longer......"

"But it's not mine! It also has a master! ”

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue struggled to interrupt: "Besides, this Kusanagi Sword has been hidden in the snow for hundreds of years, and it was not easy for me to let it see the light of day, and it would be too unfair to it to hide it again!" ”

"What did you just say......" Xiao Nan interrupted loudly, "This is the Kusanagi Sword?" ”

"Yes, can an ordinary sword cut iron solid wood so easily?" Ghost Lantern Shuiyue shouted: "Ordinary people can also sharpen iron like clay with him, this is the Kusanagi Sword!" ”

The Kusanagi Sword is the treasure of the ninja world after the Six Paths Treasure Phantasm, and has always existed only in folklore.

No one knows exactly how many; Who made it, no one knows; There are only a few records of the function of each sword.

But all the literature on the Kusanagi sword, without exception, mentions one of its characteristics—its inability to be destroyed.

This alone is enough to make Kusanagi Sword stand out in this world where cold weapons are rampant.

How important is a weapon that cannot be destroyed, and ask the guys whose blades were destroyed by the Uchiha Yoshiyoshi - such as the Black Hoe Thundertooth and the Biwa Juzo, they must have a lot to say.

"King Kong's incorruptible characteristics...... "Butterfly Shinobi is considered a scientist, and he immediately became interested in the weapon in his hand, "If it's true......"

She drew the blade, grasped the handle in her left hand, and caught the tip of the knife between the index finger and thumb of her right hand, and then slammed it hard, but she couldn't bend the blade even a bit, let alone break it.

That's a body that can shatter a mountain with one punch.

"Is there any use for anything other than hardness?"

Butterfly Shinobu slashed a circle in the air with the hilt of the knife, aiming it at the wisteria tree outside the window, and tentatively typed the chakra.

"Huh-"

In the next second, the mutation is steep!

The blade of the Kusanagi sword was like a train out of a tunnel, shooting out at a bullet-like speed like a bullet, and the huge wisteria tree was mercilessly pierced in an instant!

Butterfly Shinobi's face changed slightly, and he no longer entered the chakra, and the blade stopped growing.

However, she held the hilt of the sword, not noticing the change in its weight.

"Miss Xiaonan, can I ask you a favor?" She turned her head to look at Xiao Nan, who was quietly observing from the side.

Needless to say, Xiao Nan also knows what butterflies need her to do. So she nodded, flew out the window, and returned after about twenty seconds.

"The length extends by almost two hundred meters." Xiao Nan's answer shocked Butterfly Shinobi.

"In other words, the speed at which the blade breaks through is about a hundred meters per second." She lowered her head and calculated, "If it is used with the Worm's Breath True Spirit, then even an enemy from a few hundred meters away will not be able to escape the thrust of this speed......"

As she retrieved the chakra she had entered into the Kusanagi sword, the knife returned to its original size—the weight still hadn't changed.

"You said before that this sword doesn't belong to you alone?" Butterfly Shinobu looked at the ghost lantern Suigetsu, "Who is the other person?" ”

"It's a medicine man." Ghost Lantern Suigetsu spits out a name that Butterfly Shinobu didn't expect.

"Him?" Butterfly couldn't help but wonder, "What does he have to do with this Kusanagi sword?" ”

Ghost Lantern Mizutsuki explained, "Do you remember that there was a village where seven ninja swords were built near Orochimaru's base in the Land of Water! When my teacher and I first met Yakushidou, he was there looking for the whereabouts of Kusanagi Sword, intending to give it to Orochimaru for credit.

"About a month ago, Yakushidou told me that he had finally finished translating the ancient characters that he couldn't recognize, and knew where the Kusanagi Sword was hiding.

"It's just that he has been under house arrest in disguise by you, and he can't move at all, so discuss with me and let me, the head snake of the land of water, go to find it, and then this Kusanagi sword will belong to us together!"

"What is he looking for this knife for?"

Butterfly raised her eyebrows.

First of all, rule out the possibility that the other party wants to use this weapon against her.

Although the Kusanagi Sword has greatly improved the strength of ninjas, it is to raise a person from the ordinary ninja to the level of elite ninja, and if you want to deal with people at the level of butterfly ninja, the effect is not as great as that of an A-level ninjutsu.

Thinking of this, she walked to the desk, picked up a trumpet flower with long vines one after another, and said to the flower: "Gangzuo, let the pharmacist come to my office, thank you." ”

Xiao Nan blinked in confusion, and the ghost lamp Shui Yue also had an expression of "Are you stupid".

But five seconds later, Taketori's voice—a little distorted, but still audible in his tone—came out of the trumpet: "Okay, I see." ”

"What is this?" Xiao Nan approached and asked.

"A new plant developed last month allows us to transmit sound through vines in this building, input the corresponding chakra, and connect to the corresponding room."

Butterfly Shinobu smiled, "If this technology is a little more mature, it should be able to connect the entire village, and when there is anything to do, there will be no need to run back and forth like now." Speaking ......"

She suddenly remembered that Xiao Nan had been waiting for him here: "Miss Xiao Nan, is there something you came to me for today?" ”

"......" glanced at the ghost lantern Shuiyue, and then thought of the medicine master who was about to arrive here, Xiao Nan decided to wait for them to leave, and then talk to Butterfly Shinobi in private.

"It's nothing important, you can deal with the matter in front of you first."

Butterfly Shinobu had an expression of "thank you for understanding" on her face, and she knew Xiao Nan's intentions in her heart.

When the immortal Kawa Genya was resurrected, the things that he and Taketori-kun Mario had were still vivid, how could Butterfly Shinobu not know what would happen after Xiao Nan met Muichiro.

But due to the previous lesson, Butterfly Shinobu planned to leave the village for a while immediately after letting Muichiro and Konan meet. After a while, when the two meet again, the feeling of blood connection should fade a lot.

As a senior, as a partner, of course, she hopes that Muichiro and Xiaonan can get along well. Muichiro had better do what the three of them couldn't do and enter Xiao Nan's heart.

But she didn't want this intimate relationship to be based on strong physiological and chemical reactions, which is why she had such a plan.

Waiting for the two to calm down and then get along like normal people make friends is the safest choice.

At this time, seeing that Xiao Nan didn't plan to mention Wuichiro's matter in front of outsiders, Butterfly Shinobu was also a little relieved - among the several possibilities she preset, Xiao Nan was likely to question her directly at all costs, but this did not happen.

[That's fine, let's figure out what the pharmacist is planning first......]

Yakushidou is a person with a great sense of time, and less than five minutes after Butterfly Shinobu hung up the "phone", he knocked on the door and came in.

"I really got you to find it."

His gaze didn't linger too much on the ghost lamp Shui Yue, but stopped at the Kusanagi Sword in Butterfly Ninja's hand: "Tiancong Cloud Sword, I finally met a master who suited him." ”

"Master?" Ghost Lantern Shuiyue was stunned for two seconds at first, and then immediately understood what Medicine Master Dou meant, and shouted loudly: "Hey, hey, you don't want to transfer this thing to her, right?" I still have my share of this knife! ”

"The Kusanagi Sword is precious, but if it doesn't play its due value, it's just a tyrannical thing."

The medicine master pressed the frame on the bridge of his nose, with a confident smile on his face: "Ghost Lantern Shuiyue, you should also be aware of it, this sword can't cooperate with your hydration technique at all." On the contrary, it is also a ten-fist sword of Kusanagi, which has no body and will take on a suitable size with the user's body.

"Compared to the Heavenly Cloud Sword, or is that Kusanagi Sword more suitable for you?"

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue asked in surprise: "So, do you know the whereabouts of the Ten Fists Sword?" ”

"As long as you gather intelligence in the right way, it's a matter of time."

"Tsk, that's painting a cake with me?" Ghost Lantern Shuiyue's eyebrows drooped.

"If you're willing to give up ownership of the other half of this knife, I'll do everything I can to find it."

Medicine Master Dou seemed to be discussing, but in fact, he knew very well what choice the ghost lantern Shui Yue would make, "Of course, if you want to continue to possess it, it is better that this Tiancong Cloud Sword cannot play its due value and make the orb dusty, I am willing to give you half of my ownership, how about it?"

"Of course, in this way, if I have news of other Kusanagi Swords in the future, I can only ask others to find them......"

When Ghost Lantern Shuiyue heard the last sentence, she immediately reversed her thoughts: "Then so be it." I still like to cut people at close range, and it always feels a bit overwhelming to sneak someone at a distance of 100 meters......"

He glanced at Butterfly Shinobi, "It's better to be generous and give it to you." ”

"Then it's settled." Yakushidou showed the same smirk as Butterfly Shinobi, "Miss Ninja, you will accept this belated gift, right?" ”

“……”

Butterfly Ninja originally had a dispensable attitude towards this sword, but at this moment, after listening to Yakushi Dou's speech, there was no surprise in his heart, he was all vigilant, but he still pretended to be very useful on his face, but the words he said were not so pleasant.

"There is a saying among the people that the weasel is called to give the chicken a New Year's greeting, and he is not happy and kind. But on the other hand, the rooster greets the wolf and the snake greets the eagle, and I sound the same awkward.

"Tell me about it, Medicine Mandou. Most people give gifts to others and are expecting to return the gift, what do you want from me? ”

Obviously, both of them had clone smiles, but Xiao Nan, who had been watching the play, suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a little tense, so nervous that she actually heard the sound of her own breathing.

"Since you've pierced my purpose, there's no point in continuing to hide."

Yakushi stopped smiling and said, "I like that everything is in the best position for them, that's all."

"The most suitable position for this sword is in your hands, Miss Shinobi. And I'm not in the best position to be a good ninja in a math class to the children in the orphanage, nor am I here to instruct your medical students in surgery.

"Whether it's a teacher or a doctor, it's just my role."

"So what do you want to do? Doing human experiments? Ghost Lantern Shuiyue suddenly interjected, "Are you crazy here?" ”

“……”

Yao Shidou sighed: "I want to establish this village's intelligence system with my own hands." ”

"Huh?" This is the answer that none of the other three people have thought of.

"As an intelligence officer, I'm tired of having to ask people about any news, and I have to analyze the truth of things from second-hand, third-hand, or even fourth-hand information."

Yakushidou replied: "Although you have a lot of fresh ideas and inventions, Miss Shinobi, in terms of information collection methods, Yuyin Village is not only primitive, but also very inefficient, so much so that in order to collect information such as the disappearance of people, you actually have to spend hundreds of millions of assets every year to hire ninjas from large countries......

"And that's not all.

"Some important things, such as why the speed of Orochimaru-sama's 'resurrection' is getting faster and faster every time......"

Sure enough, when it came to this topic, a bright light suddenly flashed in Butterfly's scrutinizing eyes.

"If you always realize it like this, even if you are as powerful as Uchiha Yoshiyu, you can only be led by Orochimaru-sama, right?"

"About Orochimaru...... Do you have any ideas? Butterfly asked tentatively.

"It's not so much an idea as a reasonable speculation based on the available intelligence."

Yakushidou knew that the time had come to prove himself: "You have judged before that the Great Snake Pill was resurrected through the spell mark left on someone else's body.

In other words, every time he used the Celestial Curse Seal, he would place a part of his soul in the Spell Seal as an anchor point.

"Since every resurrection he makes, and the use of immortal reincarnation to occupy a new body, consumes his soul, no matter how he thinks, he should be weaker than before.

But in fact, in the past three years, he has been resurrected continuously, completely ignoring the original three-year time limit for reincarnation, and even he has been holding on to it under the Uchiha Yoshiyu for longer and longer times, and the means he has used are also increasing, which is obviously inconsistent with the previous situation.

"Obviously, he must have used some kind of means to overcome the side effects of the two techniques of Heavenly Curse Seal and Immortal Reincarnation."

Speaking of the key point, Yakushi Dou gently tapped the table with his knuckles, "And in the ninja world, there are only a handful of ninjutsu that can use the soul.

"In addition to the Uzumaki Clan's forbidden art and ghoul sealing, and his old friend Kato Xuan's spiritualization technique, there is also the legendary reincarnation eye that can bring the dead back to life."

"You mean, Nagato—"

Xiao Nan stood up straight, a hint of consternation flashing in his eyes.

"That's a big possibility, isn't it?"

Yakushidou analyzed, "The information that Uchiha Yoshiyu brought back from the roots of Konoha says that when the Akatsuki organization confronted Danzou and Hanzo, he summoned a huge yellow-brown colossus. The ninjutsu unleashed by the colossus was able to instantly take away the chakra and soul of the person who was hit......

"Since he can take away other people's souls, it's not inconceivable to use them, such as replenishing Orochimaru-sama's loss of souls, right?"

Xiao Nan's eyes widened. She knew that what Yakushidou was talking about was Nagato's "Outer Path Golem".

But if he wants to use people's souls, he doesn't need to summon golems at all, he only needs the human dao to suck people's souls out of his body.

"What is the basis for this?" Butterfly Ren saw the uneasiness in Xiao Nan's heart and took the initiative to ask for her.

"As I said before, this is the most plausible speculation based on the intelligence I can gather right now."

The medicine master spread his hands outstretched, "The Xiao organization and Lord Orochimaru have cooperated before, and Orochimaru has always been obsessed with reincarnation.

"He, a venomous snake desperate for survival, is now appearing so often, and even more difficult, that it is impossible without the help of others."

"But if Nagato is sheltering him......" Xiao Nan retorted: "Orochimaru doesn't need to run around at all, wouldn't it be safest to stay by Nagato's side, why be hunted down and killed constantly outside?" ”

"That's what I'm thinking."

Yakushidou suddenly laughed, "What if the plan of the Eye of Samsara is for Orochimaru to be constantly resurrected, discovered, and killed, in order to divert Uchiha Yoshiyu's attention so that he can't focus on what they are really pondering?" ”

[What they really planned......]

Xiao Nan and Butterfly Shinobu glanced at each other and saw a hint of horror in each other's eyes.

[It must be much more harmful than experimenting with humans!] 】

"Again, because the information is too scarce, I can only rely on associations to find a reasonable reason for those unreasonable things."

The medicine man stretched out his arms to the sides, "If you can let me use my own methods to gather information, I am afraid that what I will give you now is not the so-called speculation, but the solution to the problem." ”

[If you can find Nagato......]

Xiao Nan has already moved. Beneath her seemingly calm surface, she was already in a hurry.

Once the missing cases caused by Orochimaru are finally proven to be the bait set up by Nagato's old suspicion array, then no one else will say it, at least Uchiha Yoshiyoshi will definitely not give up!

Just when she wanted to open her mouth and let Yakushidou play a role, Butterfly Shinobu spoke: "We can't make a decision on this matter. ”

She ignored the intention in Xiao Nan's eyes, and said slowly but firmly: "In the final analysis, you are a prisoner of righteousness.

"He didn't kill you because he had to protect the lives of those 'test subjects' at that time, and there were even many children who were bewitched by Orochimaru to intercede for you......

"But after a few years, I still don't think you've changed in any substance. Judging by the way you call Orochimaru, you don't even want us to think you've changed in any way......

"Anyway, I'll definitely consider your proposal. But what the final result will be, we must wait for Yiyong to come back, and we will discuss it together before making a decision. ”

"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry."

Yakushidou said very confidently: "It's just that Uchiha Yoshiyu is afraid that he won't be able to come back recently." Because judging from the time, if he meets Orochimaru again, it should be within a month. ”

"That's it for now. As for your gift......" Butterfly Shinobu pulled a sword flower and looked up at the ghost lantern Shui Yue hanging on the wall: "Are you sure you want to give it to me?" ”

"It's a big deal, if you teach me swordsmanship." Ghost Lantern Shui Yue bared her teeth, "If you really don't want to go, can you write off the work in the hospital......

"I'll give it back to you. I don't particularly need it anyway......"

"I'm laughing! At least put me down first! ”

Ghost Lantern Shui Yue grabbed the vine wrapped around his waist and pulled it around for a long time to vent, "I knew that I wouldn't come back, it's better to listen to my eldest brother and stay in the country of water!" ”

The vines were released, and the ghost lantern Suigetsu fell, and when he looked up, he found that Butterfly Shinobu had already bent his eyebrows in front of him.

"You went to the Land of Water this time and saw the full moon of the ghost lantern?"

"Don't worry, I didn't say a word about what I shouldn't have said.

"I just met a few misty shinobi on the way to find the Kusanagi sword, and I heard that Daisukage has also been closed like Goji Yakura recently, so I thought it was a little strange, so I sneaked into the Rain Shadow Building to take a look."

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue picked at the position where his waist was strangled by vines before, "I was going to compete with that guy, but I didn't expect that as soon as we met, he told me that he would probably live for a few more months, which made me lose interest all of a sudden."

"After that, he also asked me to stay in the Misty Ninja Village and start a family, at least leave my descendants to inherit the name of the Ghost Lantern Clan or something......

"I stayed with him for three or four days, and he said the same thing at least a hundred times, and the water in my head was about to turn into industrial glue. So one day, when he was not sober after drinking the medicine, I quickly ran away. ”

Several people in the house looked at him with complicated eyes: [How did this Fog Hidden Village raise children......]

"Since it's his turn to be the ...... of this generation of Mizukage this year," Butterfly Shinobu asked with some concern, "How is that ninja named Terumi Ming?" ”

"I know that. Her Daimyo of Mizuno Country is sent to a small island with a particularly thriving tourism industry to deal with an invasive octopus. ”

"Octopus?" Xiao Nan repeated it to make sure he heard correctly.

"That's right. It is a particularly ferocious and cunning octopus that is said to have drifted from the waters off the coast of the country of waves. ”

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue recalled: "They expelled the native octopus on the coast of the water country, ate the ones they ate, and finally settled there disguised as victims, and there were no natural predators at all.

"Until recently, the number of ornamental fish in the reefs in that area had been so reduced that even the wealthy who loved diving were reluctant to visit, and the locals found out that the culprit was an alien creature after careful investigation.

"The daimyo transferred two or three hundred people from the village of Kiristin, and it had some effect at first, but then the octopus became smarter, and as soon as someone came, they stayed away from the coastline, and they ate their own food without food, and those who survived became more and more cunning. There were even a few unlucky shinobi who were dragged into the sea, and when they were rescued, half of their arms were gone. ”

"If Wuyin Village can't even solve ordinary animals, it will be too shameful."

Yao Shidou shook his head slightly: "I'm afraid things are not that simple. ”

Butterfly Shinobu thought so, and for some reason, she always paid special attention to all abnormalities related to the sea: "Have you seen this creature in person on the way back?" ”

"I've seen it myself."

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue laughed: "When I passed by the water, I met a group of small octopuses, which looked like they had just been born for a long time.

"I didn't provoke them, but they did come to provoke me, so I grabbed a few cubs and brought them back with me. Octopuses are fish, too! I'm going to raise them and let the teacher make them into seafood and taste them to see how they taste......"

Several people coincidentally made up a picture in the same mind-

In a transparent cube with a human head, there are a few small octopuses that are bouncing and watting all the way up the current.

"Where are they now?"

"Where I live, do you want to see it now?"

"Then I'm bothering you." Butterfly Shinobu squinted, "If you can, please bring them all." ”

"Then you get the fish tank ready first!"

Ghost Lantern Suigetsu was happy to share his new toy, and after a while, he turned into a wave and jumped out of the window.

As for the fish tank, it was too easy, and Butterfly Shinobu called Taketori Steel to bring up a glass coffin containing human specimens from the hospital.

As soon as the water tank was ready, the ghost lantern Shuiyue returned—he let out a cheap laugh, his body turned into transparent water even with his clothes, and five fist-sized purple-gray octopuses moved slowly where his heart and lungs should be.

But weirdly, when the butterfly ninja approached to observe carefully, these octopuses were suddenly stimulated by something, and began to sprint towards the outside of the chest cavity of the ghost lamp water moon, and forced out a long bulge!

That scene is very similar to the exaggerated representation of a character in a cartoon who is frightened and his heart jumps directly out of his chest.

"They seem to like you?"

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue was a little strange about the reaction of these octopuses, and no longer restricted them.

Those octopuses broke through the boundary of the water body, and actually opened their wrists and feet, and pounced directly on the face of the butterfly ninja.

The butterfly raised its wrist and spat out a sharp branch in its palm to pierce the octopus led by it, and slapped the rest into the water tank.

"Hey, why did you kill it?"

Butterfly Shinobu did not respond, but silently removed the octopus strung on the branch, laid it flat on the table, and then picked up a scalpel.

Seeing this, Yakushidou immediately stepped forward curiously and held down the wrists and feet of the octopus that were still wriggling after the octopus's death.

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue was confused, Xiao Nan was just waiting for the others to leave, so he was not too interested.

It wasn't until twenty seconds later that she heard the pharmacist gasping for air.

Immediately after, at the moment when Butterfly Shinobu finished dissecting and stood up straight, the other three people present all felt their stomachs sink like a plummeting elevator!

"Yan!"

Butterfly Shinobu turned around and shouted out the window: "As a pillar, inform Muichiro and Genya to immediately put down all the activities in their hands and come here to see me!"

"The sooner the better!"

There should be another shift the day after tomorrow or Monday, and then I'm going on a business trip again......
