In the air, more than ten kilometers away from Huangquan, Yichen and Uchiha Izumiluo were flying in the direction of Iwa Ninja Village.

Uchiha Izumiraku asked Yichen with some puzzlement, "Tsuchikage-sama, why don't you just kill this person?" ”

"The village has locked him up for six years, and he must be very resentful of the village."

"I'm afraid he'll take revenge on the village."

Yichen said: "You don't know people like Huang Quan, Huang Quan is very similar to Tuan Zang, they both have ambitions far beyond ordinary people. ”

"They will stop at nothing to achieve their ambitions."

"Don't you know that I'm not at ease? Of course he does. ”

"The reason why he is willing to cooperate with me is because if he wants to realize his ambitions, he must become Hokage again."

"If he can't be Hokage, he may feel that life is meaningless."

"And the process by which he became the Hokage is doing things for us, whether he succeeds in the end or not."

"Huang Quan is the same, without our control, he will try his best to develop his power and strengthen himself."

"If Huangquan wants to develop its power, there must be a certain original force that has been damaged."

"And his dark medical ninjutsu is magical, he is not afraid of conventional attacks."

"But this dark medical ninjutsu of his is not omnipotent, and he can't deal with my light escape."

"What do you think he's going to do in this situation?"

Uchiha Izumiraku thought for a moment and said, "He will go to the territory of Konoha, Cloud Shinobi or Mist Shinobi to develop his power. ”

"He's going to make trouble for our enemies."

Yichen smiled: "That's right. For now, at least, it would be in the village's favor to let him out. ”

"The process of his development has been beneficial to us."

"As for the future, if we have to kill him at the time, to be honest, he hasn't been taken seriously by me."

Izumi Uchiha nodded, she had learned.

Yichen said: "Our ultimate goal is to unify the ninja world, and we will encounter many enemies in the process. ”

"If we create trouble for the enemy without going through war, then what are we hesitating about?"

"This, in fact, you Uchiha clan has not done a good job, you obviously have strong force, but you have been suppressed by the Konoha high-level, the fundamental reason is that you always want to destroy."

"You know, sometimes, it's more cost-effective to compromise than to take it all."

Uchiha Izumiraku said, "I see, Tsuchikage-sama. ”

After returning to the village after dealing with Huangquan's affairs, Yichen came to the ninja school and found Shion.

When Shion saw Yichen, she hurriedly shouted, "Lord Tsuchikage." ”

Yichen touched the little girl's head and said, "Xiao Chongming reacted and said, your cultivation is not very serious." ”

Zi Yuan hurriedly retorted: "What's the matter, I can practice hard." ”

As she spoke, she glanced at Yichen with a little weakness.

Yichen said, "I have unfortunate news for you. ”

"The dragon in your body originally had a loyal believer named Huang Quan, and before we sealed the dragon, he took away part of the dragon's power."

"It's just that then I caught this man and locked him up in the village prison."

"It's been more than six years, but just now, he escaped."

Shion's mouth opened slightly, she thought for a moment and asked, "Did he leave more than an hour ago?" ”

Yichen was curious: "How do you know?" ”

Shion said: "More than an hour ago, there was some abnormal movement in the dragon in my body, but it quickly calmed down, and I didn't think much about it. ”

Yichen was clear: "Sure enough, Huang Quan's departure was sensed by Aster. ”

But on his face, Yichen said with a look of hatred: "Why didn't you say it earlier, otherwise we could have tracked it down earlier, and maybe we would have been able to catch Huangquan again." ”

Shion cautiously asked, "What will happen if he runs away?" ”

Yichen said solemnly: "He will come back to you and release the dragon in your body again." ”

"If the dragon is released, I can defeat him again, but you, as a shrine maiden, will die."

Shion's face turned pale, and he hurriedly grabbed Yichen's clothes and said, "Tsuchikage-sama, what should I do then?" ”

Yichen shook his head and did not speak.

Seeing this, Aster was anxious, and the little girl's tears were about to come out.

Seeing this, Yichen sighed and said, "I can't help it, and I can't stay by your side forever." ”

"But you may have a way of it."

Shion asked puzzled, "What can I do?" ”

Yichen said, "If you can completely digest the dragon before Huangquan looks for you, then you don't have to be afraid of him. ”

Shion immediately asked, "What should I do, then, Tsuchikage-sama?" ”

Yichen said: "In this way, I will ask the Dark Department to escort you to the village to study the Yin Escape Laboratory every day, and let my disciple Shengyou and my sister Xia Yue teach you how to quickly digest the Dragon." ”

Shion didn't dare to refute, she immediately nodded in agreement, and said, "Tsuchikage-sama, I will definitely practice hard from now on." ”

Yichen nodded and said, "I'll take you there now." ”

Ziyuan nodded hurriedly, she was more anxious than Yichen now, the sky was pitiful, she was really frightened.

After a while, Yichen came out of Shengyou's laboratory, recalled the appearance of Ziyuan's serious cultivation just now, and sighed in his heart: "You still have to use deception to deal with little children." ”

……

After arranging Shion's practice, Yichen found Kurama Yakumo again.

Kurama Yakumo's age is one year older than Shion and Sakura, and the same age as Ninji and Kuroto.

But because of physical reasons, Yichen arranged him in Sakura's class, in the same class as Sakura.

Yichen's plan is that Sakura, Shion, and Kurama Yakumo are in the same group, and the team leader has all been thought of Yichen, or Riori Uzumaki.

Now, among the three, Sakura has embarked on the path of medical ninjas and Yin Escape going hand in hand.

Aster also began to practice Yin Retreat, speeding up the digestion of the spirits in her body.

With Kurama Yakumo left, Yichen felt that it was time to talk to her.

When Yichen finds Kurama Yakumo at the ninja school, she is sitting on a large bird created with a pseudo-drawing of a super beast on her back.

Kurama Yakumo is now a ninja school bully, and she is walking around the school with a large group of younger brothers, and the other children are avoiding it when they see it, and the eldest sister is full of style.

In the past, Ning Ci, Hei Tu and Xiang Phosphorus, who were one year older than her, could still suppress her, but with the graduation of the three of them, no one in the ninja school could cure this girl anymore.

Yichen watched her walk around the playground of the ninja school as if she were patrolling the territory.

Then Yichen turned into a small ball of mud with porcelain and smashed her head from afar.

Kurama Yakumo was furious, and there was still anyone in the current ninja school who dared to break ground on the head of the old lady?

She turned her head around angrily, and soon discovered the murderer.

It's just that when she saw that the person who smashed her was Yichen with a smile on her face, she was stunned for a moment, and then disbanded the younger brothers with some weakness.

Kurama Yakumo then urged the big bird under her feet to come to Yichen's side, and she whispered, "Tsuchikage-sama." ”

Yichen nodded and said, "Yakumo, are you still happy in Iwa Ninja Village?" ”

Kurama Yakumo stuck out his little tongue and thought, "Can't you tell if I'm happy or not?" ”

But on the face, she still said very obediently: "Tsuchikage-sama, I'm very happy, Iwa Ninja Village is very good." ”

Yichen nodded and said, "Let's go, let's find a quiet place, and I'll talk to you about the topic that I didn't finish a few years ago." ”

Kurama Yakumo was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that when she was first brought from Konoha by Yichen, Yichen had said that he would tell her that a fifth-generation Hokage Tsunade would hide the truth from her along with her teacher, Yuri Hong.

Suddenly, Kurama Yakumo slower the speed at which she urged the birds, and she had a hunch that this truth was not what she wanted to know.

But it was useless to escape, and although she slowed down her flight, she eventually flew to Yichen's side.

The two of them sat on the roof of a teaching building at the ninja school, and Yichen said, "Yakumo, have you felt anything abnormal in your body over the years?" ”

Kurama Yakumo was silent for a while, then said, "Is there something strange in me?" ”

Yichen nodded and said, "It seems that you already know." ”

Kurama Yakumo said, "My strength has grown rapidly, and at first I thought it was my talent, but then I sensed that something was wrong. ”

"The seals that Tsuchikage-sama and Shion's mother put on me back then continue to give me strength."

"This power will not be produced in vain, I feel that my situation is similar to the human pillar force recorded in the book."

"So I'm guessing there's something strange in me."

Yichen nodded, and asked again, "Then do you have any guesses about what is in your body?" ”

Kurama Yakumo was silent, she had a guess, but she didn't dare to say.

Seeing this, Yichen said, "You have a second you in your body, and that you are different from the kind and simple appearance you have now. ”

"It's terrifying, and his personality and thoughts are the exact opposite of yours."

"He is the murderer of your parents!"

Hearing Yichen's words, Kurama Yakumo didn't show shock, she has broken away from Konoha in the past few years, and her mind has become more and more alive.

After she stopped being as sharp as she used to be, she could see her own problems from an outsider's perspective.

The education at the ninja school taught her how to analyze information and how to think about problems.

So she already had a guess about the outcome she didn't want to hear.

The two were silent for a while, and Yichen asked, "Yakumo, what are your plans next?" ”

"Don't worry about it, even if you want to go back to Konoha, I won't stop you."

Kurama Yakumo shook his head and said, "Tokage-sama, I don't want to go back to Konoha. I want to know my people, are they all okay? ”

Yichen thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry, many of you in the Kurama clan don't have ninja talents, they are dispensable in Konoha Village, and no one will target them." ”

Kurama Yakumo asked again, "Tsuchikage-sama, how is Sensei Red now?" ”

Yichen said: "Is the sunset red? I don't know, but if you want to know, I can ask the shadows to inquire. ”

Kurama Yakumo thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Forget it, I disappointed her." ”

Yichen smiled: "Don't talk about this, have you ever wondered why such a monster is produced in your body?" ”

Yichen hurriedly changed the topic, he didn't want Kurama Yakumo to always be entangled in the sunset red thing. This is not conducive to brainwashing.

Kurama Yakumo looked at Yichen and said eagerly, "I don't know, Tsuchikage-sama, you know what. ”

Yichen's question was asked to her heart, yes, why are others normal, but there is a monster in her body?

Yichen said: "Because you live in this wrong ninja world. ”

Kurama Yakumo wondered, what is the wrong ninja world, don't everyone live in this ninja world? .

Yichen raised his eyes to look at the sky, and said with a somewhat confused gaze: "The world we live in is dark, although the sun is blazing, it can only dispel the darkness of the outside world, but it cannot dispel the darkness in people's hearts. ”

When Kurama Yakumo heard this, he suddenly felt that the topic was suddenly high.

"Since the establishment of the Ninja Sect by the Six Dao Immortals, there has not been a day of peace in the ninja world."

"The Six Dao Immortals spread chakra, with the intention of expecting people to understand each other, but this is simply unrealistic."

"Ninjas have powers beyond ordinary people, so they naturally don't want to follow the rules of the world."

"Many ninjas try to break the established rules with their own powers, to put themselves above the old rules, so that they can make new rules as they wish."

And so there was a strife. The ninja world has never been peaceful again. ”

"First there was a civil war between the ninja clans, then a melee between the ninja clans, and now it has escalated into a large-scale war between the big ninja villages."

Kurama Yakumo thought for a moment and asked, "Can't you stop everyone from fighting?" ”

Yichen shook his head and said, "The purpose of ninja learning and cultivation is for strength, and the purpose of gaining power is for profit. ”

"To prevent everyone from fighting is to prevent everyone from fighting for interests, who is willing to give up their own interests, and who doesn't want to live a better life?"

Kurama Yakumo thinks it makes sense, but, what does this have to do with himself?

Yichen continued: "For thousands of years, the concept of the ninja clan has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and if there is a strong person in the ninja clan, then everyone can get benefits. ”

"So when your people know about your talent, they all invest in you with great expectations."

"But your parents don't want you to be the one to carry the burden of family revival."

"So in your upbringing, two different personalities emerged."

"One is you who is now exposed, this Kurama Yakumo is pampered by his parents and lives a carefree life."

"Another Kurama Yakumo grew up in the expectations of her clan, she was resilient, full of desire for power, and ambitious for the future."

Kurama Yakumo fell into deep thought.

At this moment, Yichen added softly: "Maybe what breeds another Kurama Yakumo is not only the expectations of the clansmen, but also the expectations of the parents." ”

Kurama Yakumo was stunned for a moment, and then when he was a child, scenes from getting along with his parents began to come to mind.

At that time, in the eyes of her parents, there seemed to be both doting love for her who wanted to shield her from the wind and rain for a lifetime, and the desire to expect her to become a strong person and revitalize the family.

After a moment, Kurama Yakumo said, "Tsuchikage-sama, thank you, thank you for clearing up my doubts. ”

Yichen smiled: "No matter what the future holds, you are now a part of the village. ”

"As a Tokage, caring for the younger generations of the village is what I should do."

"Besides, I brought you from Konoha, and if I didn't care about you, no one would care about you."

After a long silence, Kurama Yakumo asked, "Tsuchikage-sama, do you have a way to end the strife in the ninja world?" ”

"Without strife, no one would be as unfortunate as me."

Yichen smiled: "Yes, if I don't even have this way, why should I be a soil shadow?" ”

"If I don't work for this goal, then what's the difference between me and those who keep waging war for their own ambitions?"

After a pause, Yichen said: "If I want to end the strife in the ninja world, I have chosen two aspects. ”

"First, unify the ninja world, let the ninja world have only one ninja village, and let all battles become like the middle ninja exam."

"It's not like this now, it's a fight of tens of thousands of ninjas."

"Second, find a common enemy for all ninjas, and under external pressure, completely cut off the idea of infighting."

"Everybody is aiming at this enemy, and they're all in one place."

Kurama Yakumo was curious: "Who is that common enemy?" Konoha? ”

Yichen shook his head and said, "What do you think?" Konoha is also a member of the ninja world, so naturally he is also the object of my unity. ”

"The common enemy I'm talking about is a foreign invader like the goddess of U, Otsuki Kaguya."

"These people want to destroy the ninja world fundamentally, and they are the common enemy of all of us."

Kurama Yakumo was stunned and said, "Didn't the newspaper say that the goddess of U was defeated by the Six Paths Immortals?" ”

Yichen said: "That's right, the goddess of Mao is sealed inside the moon, and the younger brother of the Six Dao Immortals is specially guarding her on the moon. ”

"But, who said there is only one person in the goddess of U?"

Kurama Yakumo was startled and blurted out, "She still has accomplices?" ”

Yichen nodded and said, "Yes, she still has accomplices, and there is more than one, those powerful god-like figures are still coveting our homeland. ”

"Some of these people are more powerful than the goddess of Mao."

"In order to deal with these people, we need and must unite."

"Let's not mention these people first, just talk about the goddess of Mao."

"The goddess of Mao has been sealed in the moon for thousands of years, at least for a thousand years, I don't know the specifics."

"But she is still alive, and there is still a force in the ninja world that wants to release her and destroy the ninja world again."

Kurama Yakumo was surprised: "How is it possible? How can anyone live for a thousand years? ”

Yichen was silent for a moment and said, "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven." There are seven beings I know of who survived thousands of years ago. ”

Kurama Yakumo swallowed, she felt that Yichen was telling a mythical story. This is completely different from the worldview she has formed before.

Yichen said: "You know the three major psychic beast holy lands, they all have an immortal who has lived from the Six Dao Immortal Period to the present. ”

"Among them, the immortal toad pill of Miaomu Mountain once instructed the six immortals to learn immortal arts."

Kurama Yakumo's academic performance is very good, so naturally he has heard of the three holy places, and this is how the Iwa Ninja Village textbook describes the three holy places.

The three major psychic beast holy lands controlled the cultivation methods of immortal arts, but the four generations of great and wise adults of the village broke their monopoly.

The four generations of adults led the Iwa Ninja Village to also find a way to practice immortal arts.

The village now has several immortals who can perform immortal arts: the fourth generation of adults themselves, the third generation of adults, and Lord Matsutani Shinya.

Kurama Yakumo glanced at Yichen's faint eyeshadow and said, "Immortal art is the way you are now?" ”

Yichen nodded and continued: "Maintaining the immortal mode for a long time can prolong the lifespan, so after I learned the immortal mode, I was basically in the immortal mode. ”

Kurama Yakumo nodded.

Yichen said again: "In addition to these three, they are the Goddess of Mao and the Six Dao Immortal Brothers. ”

Kurama Yakumo's mouth opened wide, and she stammered, "The Six Dao Immortals are still alive?" ”

The Six Dao Immortals are legendary characters that everyone has heard about since childhood, and everyone is familiar with him.

Hearing that the Six Paths Immortal was still alive, Kurama Yakumo's excitement surpassed that of hearing that Otsuki Kaguya was still alive.

Yichen nodded and said, "Yes, I have seen the Six Dao Immortal Brothers with my own eyes. ”

"However, the younger brother of the Six Dao Immortals should have run out of oil and died."

"By the way, Ning Ci has also met the younger brother of the Six Dao Immortals, and he has also learned some ways to become stronger from the younger brother of the Six Dao Immortals."

"Ningci?" Kurama Yakumo was a little envious of this genius of the same age.

During the ninja school period, Ningji's strength was far above her.

Kurama Yakumo stayed for a while before he felt something was wrong and asked, "Isn't it seven?" Why is one missing? ”

Yichen said: "The seventh one is the guy who wants to release the goddess of Mao. ”

"He also survived from the era of the Six Dao Immortals."

"I've fought a few times with the people he put on the surface, but I've never really fought him."

"This is a scheming guy who is very good at forbearance."

It took a long time for Kurama Yakumo to come back to his senses from the mythical description of Yichen.

She said, "Tsuchikage-sama, it turns out that when we were playing ninja games, you have been fighting against such people? ”

Yichen smiled slightly, rubbed Kurama Yakumo's head, and said, "I'm the earth shadow, so naturally I have to defend against these dangers outside the village." ”

"In the future, when you grow up and inherit the will of the stone, it will be your turn to shelter the younger generations of the village."

At this moment, in Kurama Yakumo's eyes, Yichen, who was smiling at the sun, was shining brightly.

Kurama Yakumo was illuminated by this dazzling light, and there was no more confusion in his heart. She has finally found her worth.

Kurama Yakumo said, "Tsuchikage-sama, please accept me as a disciple, and I will also become a good ninja like you, and fight against those invaders who try to destroy the ninja world in the future." ”

"I will defend our homeland, and I will defeat anyone who tries to destroy the ninja world."

Yichen nodded and said, "Yes, I am willing to accept you as a disciple, from today onwards, you will be my Yichen's disciple." ”

"Kurama Yakumo, although this cruel ninja world has brought you misfortune, it has also given you hope to become a strong man."

"As long as you can turn the power of that monster in your body into your own use, then you can one day become as strong as the teacher."

Kurama Yakumo nodded vigorously, his eyes extremely determined.
