Chapter Eighty-Seven: Behind the Shadows
The current status quo of the ninja world is the only way for a society after almost every class is solidified.
Conservative and change-averse.
For the daimyo and the Furusugi family, it means that it is becoming more and more difficult to defend the country.
The arrogance of the upper class, the numbness of the lower class, and the long-standing inertia still make the commoners accustomed to obeying the orders of the nobles, but it is no longer as natural as before.
"Whenever a grand ceremony is held, there are false cheers on the left and right, and the common people who are watching coldly from afar. We are still on top of the throne, not because we recognize the status of nobility, but because we have not yet found a replacement......"
The eloquent daimyo has not said these heartfelt words for a long time.
Naturally, the aristocracy did not bother to study the changes in productivity and production relations, capital and society, and the ninja did not focus on how to subvert the rule of the daimyo.
His own strength is insufficient, the number of ninjas is too small, and there is no perfect theoretical foundation, and if he defeats the daimyo and nobles, it will not be the turn of the ninja village to pick the final fruits of victory.
After venting, he seemed to realize that it was a little inappropriate to talk about this with his grandson at this time, and after calming down a little, he said kindly:
"Am I talking too much? Nowadays, we old guys seem to live in another world, and we can hardly understand what young people are thinking now......"
"It's alright!"
Although there are henchmen around him, Gu Shanbu Shui still uses skillful water escape operation skills to form a transparent water film, suppressing the sound of conversation and trying not to spread to the outside world.
"It's the same everywhere! Who made us stand on the side of the villains who blocked the glorious trend of history? There is a ninja village outside that is pressing step by step, and there are a group of pig teammates inside, and the giant wheel of the times is running over, and there is not much room for struggle......"
"So, your plan is to 'untouchable'? In the past few months, I also know what you have done in the country of bears and the land of the sea, can you find a new way? ”
"I don't know, I have to give it a try. It's like the 'King of Fighters' Challenge, no one could have imagined that it would make such a big splash and become one of the most important cards in our hands......"
How to tap the value of the platform that connects the transcendent and the mundane still needs to be explored.
"Hopefully!"
The daimyo said with a strong fighting spirit,
"With a big home, you seem to be able to bring a little change. It's still young people who have ideas, unlike us, who are powerless, who seem to have great power, and who are bound to do things. ”
After counting the time, it is almost over, and when the next three competitions are over, the next day that may get together will be Obon in the near future.
……
In this year's Zhongnin exam, there are no genius candidates with very famous names.
Itachi, an Uchiha Itachi of the right age, had already graduated from the ninja school ahead of schedule, and he could barely find an opponent in the middle ninja exam last year.
The top four candidates are all Konoha ninjas, and when they were in the ninja school, Gu Shanbu Shui was also a little impressed.
In the end, a civilian ninja who was not necessarily at the top of his strength, but had few weaknesses, defeated the lower ninja of the Hyuga clan with difficulty and successfully reached the top.
"You're also a ninja, what do you think of their performance?"
The old father, Masakoto Furusugi, asked in a low voice,
"Compared to last year, it's a little less exciting, but it's not bad either."
Gu Shanbushui replied very seriously:
"Strength or something, that's it, but the foundation that these Konoha ninjas have shown is indeed very solid, as long as they don't die halfway, Konoha Village will naturally have a place for them in the future. What I care about is that these young talents whose qualifications are not amazing and brilliant, but whose performance is remarkable, can be cultivated in batches. ”
If it is really a genius, and there are many people who have come and gone, and people are fascinated by it, Gu Shanbushui will not feel too much.
can cross the shackles of qualifications, and can allow most of the slightly talented civilian children to embark on the road of ninjas, which is enough to prove that the theoretical system of extraordinary strength in the ninja world is quite mature.
This is a civilization system that is different from the traditional material level of science and technology, and it is not known whether the two can be integrated and whether there will be serious conflicts in the future.
But now, the competition for "jade" between the daimyo and the Hokage has involved more and more people.
Moreover, these professionally educated ninjas are not only proficient in ninjutsu and good at fighting, but also have deep attainments in many fields.
There are many courses in the ninja school, girls can choose tea art, painting, vocal music and other arts, boys prefer chess and cards, calligraphy, etc., and there are even interest classes such as cooking and flower planting.
In the basic field of mathematics and physics, Konoha ninjas are obviously the most outstanding ones in the ninja world.
The popularization of education in the secular world was extremely sparse, and the only schools for the nobles to study themselves did not have courses in natural science and ninjutsu, most of them were etiquette, philosophy, literature and art, etc., and there were very few kendo classes.
In other words, the current Konoha Village Ninja School is the de facto highest school in the ninja world.
Not only can he fight, but he is also erudite and talented, how can Gu Shanbushui lead a large number of ignorant and old-fashioned nobles to compete with them?
"In the long run, we're almost certain to lose."
Gu Shanbu came to a conclusion.
As long as you have a little vision, you can actually make a rough judgment, and Masakoto Furusugi, who has more life experience, naturally won't be ignorant.
"And you still want to wrestle with them?"
"Eating and waiting to die is not what I wanted. Besides, we don't have no chance......"
If it really goes on step by step, it seems that this is the case.
In the ninja world, there are not only Konoha Village and Fire Country, but also several other big countries and powerful ninja villages, and secretly there are Uchiha Obito and Kuroju, who are ready to do big things.
Gu Shanbu Shui is not alone.
"Yuyu clarified, the cow ghost and snake god have nothing to hide, and we don't have any good way. However, who called Konoha Village itself to be in turmoil, and the overlord of the ninja world is not very comfortable and stable? ”
The Uchiha family is already like a candle in the wind, and it is about to disappear.
In the venue below, the winners waved their arms excitedly, ushering in bursts of cheers, and Gu Shanbushui also applauded casually.
"I'm not going back to Obon, I want to see up close how the Uchiha family ruined their last chance to save themselves."
……
Ten days later, Gu Shanbu Shui and Momiji stood on the terrace in the manor outside the village, looking northeast.
There, there is a chakra that is as passionate as fire, which is fading away.
For nearly 20 days, after the tourists who watched the Zhongnin exam dispersed, Furusugi Bushui and Momiji went to pick up their daughters from time to time, and the rest of the time, they stayed here for vacation.
Until today, Obon is coming, and Konoha Village is also holding a lively temple fair, and Xianglin and several classmates have made an appointment to go shopping together, and they will come back late.
As for some students who have pursuits, they will not stop today's penance.
The brightly lit Konoha Village is like a city that never sleeps in the great forest of the Land of Fire, and the fireworks are burning and the tourists are weaving, showing the joy of the festival to the fullest.
On the riverside where the light does not shine, even the bright moonlight is obscured.
After handing over the kaleidoscope writing wheel eye in his left eye socket to Uchiha Itachi and entrusting him with his life ideals, he was blocked by the pursuers again, and the Uchiha stopped the water with no way out, and had lost hope of escaping.
That's all I ended up with. It's really unwilling, I can do better......
The memories of the marquee replayed in my mind, and the words of Gu Shanbu Shui a few months ago came back to my mind.
Sure enough, wouldn't it be better to say a few more words at that time? Uchiha ...... It's still too arrogant.'"
At that time, the high-spirited "instantaneous water stop" didn't take Gu Shanbushui's words to heart at all, and he didn't feel that he had a way to help him.
Now, even with his meager strength, Uchiha Shisui is praying that it can bring some hope to the family.
Seriously injured and dying, it was difficult to control his body completely, and as soon as he felt weak, the Uchiha stopped the water and fell, falling heavily in the pool and disappearing.
"Keep chasing!"
To live to see people, to die to see corpses.
Shimura Danzo doesn't accept any accidents, since he does it, he has to cut the grass and eradicate the roots.
It's just that I just got my hands on the Kaleidoscope Writing Wheel Eye, which has the strongest illusion in the legend, and my heart is all about how to bring it into play, and the unruly Uchiha family is not the first trouble to consider.
It's time to talk to Orochimaru, and it's time to reopen the unfinished experiments that year."
Even if it's a traitor, it's not a big deal for Shimura Danzo, as long as you can use it for yourself, identity is not a problem.
The "root" ninja on the water patrolled back and forth, looking for the figure of the Uchiha stopping the water, dozens of meters deep in the water, waiting for a long time for the fishing fire, leading more than ten hideous sea beasts, the dying youth, with glass water to urgently cool it, and then swallowed by the sea owner, slowly moving along the river, with the smallest movement, unhurriedly escaped from the pursuit of the "root" organization.
After about ten days of underwater sneaking, he successfully entered the sea, and then came to the barren territory of the Vortex Country, and was sent to the laboratory that had been prepared a long time ago.
Just when the Uchiha family broke out into a huge internal strife because of the disappearance of the Uchiha Shisui, Furusugi Busui also said goodbye to the three generations of the Hokage at the right time and returned to Shiki Island with Momiji.
"Already dead?"
With the information sent by his subordinates, Gu Shanbushui frowned.
"Why didn't you get it back?"
"I'm sorry, young master. It is said that when the laboratory was taken over, it was already brain dead, and multiple organs failed......"
Yaskawa Zaihara, who did not bring good news, replied worriedly,
"That person's injuries are so severe, theoretically he should have died a long time ago, and he barely breathed a breath by relying on his resolute will, but in fact he was a movable walking corpse. Although the freeze retains the activity of some of the body's cells, it does not improve much on the whole. ”
"I kind of get it!"
Gu Shanbushui shook his head regretfully.
The so-called blast freezing can save lives and save lives at the right time is only a theoretical speculation.
Perhaps this method can avoid physical damage at the level of human cells, but it does not mean that it is really foolproof.
The Uchiha Shisui was first attacked by Shimura Danzo, gouged out his right eye, and then forcibly opened his left Nenghu, overdrew his vitality, and fought to the death with the "root" ninja, and finally gave his left eye to Uchiha Itachi and fell into the water and died.
In order to bring their bodies back, the ancient Shanbu water uses methods without any chakra fluctuations, and it is strictly forbidden for merfolk to use chakras before reaching their destination.
The purpose of this is to be afraid of the various perceptual ninjas who exist in the "root".
Now, the people have brought it back, but they are already dead, which is really disappointing.
What's the use of just a few pieces of "flesh and bones" that retain some cellular activity?
"Young master, it's not for nothing, at least we found that its kidneys and the frozen seeds of life still retain quite active ......"
"Huh?"
How to drop, are you still going to have an in vitro fertilization and artificial surrogacy?
Let's not talk about whether the Gushan family has mastered such a technology, even if it exists, the success rate is not guaranteed.
The inter-pillar cell experiment presided over by Orochimaru has succeeded in a Tianzang after so many years, and Gu Shanbushui doesn't feel that he has a stronger genius under his command.
"It's okay to try anyway, what if it succeeds?"
Yasukawa Zaihara said cautiously tentatively.
If you get nothing, and you finally get the approval of the Lord, you will turn a big turn, and the next opportunity to perform will be far away.
"Who's going to try?"
"What does the young master think, God knows?"
"Him?"
Gu Shanbushui pursed his lips with disdain,
"A person who plays with living grafting, it is estimated that he will not be able to play such a high-end job......"
Let's not talk about whether you really want to engage in such a small action, even if you make up your mind, it will not help if you don't have a reliable helper.
With a wave of his hand, he sent his men away.
Gu Shanbu Shui was still ready to ask the goddess of Mao.
"What do you think I should do? A valuable corpse, the most precious kaleidoscope writing wheel eye is gone......"
Anyway, it is also the ancestor of Uchiha Shisui I don't know how many generations ago, and the corpse that inherited part of the power is still quite valuable.
"If you're going to make it a puppet, I've got some tips here. It's not much use, though......"
Indeed, without the kaleidoscope writing wheel eye, making it into a puppet with no growth potential is just chicken ribs.
Gu Shanbu is greedy for the writing wheel eye, if he can get his hands on it, even if he inherits part of the ability, the increase in strength is quite large.
"Do you really have to give up?"
A few months ago, the two were still talking and laughing together, but in the blink of an eye, they were separated by yin and yang.
"That servant of yours said it very well, artificially create a batch of heirs, and maybe there will be a gifted, awakened writing wheel."
"Let's not talk about whether it can be done, if I wait for them to grow up, it will take at least ten years, and at that time, I will be almost forty years old, is it still too late?"
Uchiha Sasuke and Naruto Uzumaki still have six years to graduate, and there are about ten years left before the Fourth Ninja World War, even if you have to cultivate henchmen from an early age, starting with a fertilized egg, it is too slow.
