"After all, no matter how powerful a ninja is, there will be an end to life one day."

"At that point, she won't be able to stand out for her students......

Tuan Zang said meaningfully, sounding like he was still deeply touched.

You must know that after the second generation Hokage died to cover them, their group of students who returned to Konoha alive received a lot of criticism.

If it weren't for Hichi's quick decision, setting up the system of Hokage advisors, sharing the power with his classmates, and uniting to fight against the ninja counterattack, Konoha doesn't know if it still exists now.

It's a pity that now that guy seems to have forgotten the merits of his old buddies, and is always thinking about taking back power.

Hmph, only the guy who doesn't have any ambitions will be so obedient so easily.

One day, I'll prove to Kazuma-sama that I'm the right person to be the Hokage......

And Ye Naiyu was also shocked by Tuan Zang's rebellious speech at this time, and couldn't help but look up at the other party with shocked eyes.

It's a pity that Tuan Zang also felt that he was a little speechless, and did not continue to delve into this topic, but began to give various specific instructions to Ye Naiyu.

After explaining the task, Tuan Zang said:

“…… When this mission is over, I will fulfill my promise to lift the curse on you as you wish, and let you completely free from your roots. ”

"There is also an orphanage, and I can also apply to the village for a fund every year."

"Now, you should have enough motivation to complete the mission."

"I hope you, who are called 'Walking Shrine Maidens', won't disappoint me this time......"

After drawing a big cake for Ye Naiyu, Tuan Zang turned into a black shadow and disappeared in place, ending the conversation with Ye Naiyu.

After a long time, Ye Naiyu, who had been half-kneeling on the ground, slowly stood up.

Thinking back to the last words that Tuan Zang said to her, she felt a strong sense of powerlessness in her heart.

Although Danzang kept saying that he would lift the curse mark on her body.

But she knows that as long as she still has the weakness of the orphanage, she may never be able to get rid of the control of the group......

After a long sigh, Nonoyu took heavy steps and walked towards the orphanage not far away.

The good mood brought by playing Mu Dun vs. Zombies before has been exhausted at this time......

Following the dimly lit path, Nonoyu quickly returned to the entrance of the orphanage, which looked very old.

It was already lights out time, but the light that came out of the window made Ye Naiyu a little surprised.

Who hasn't slept at such a late hour?

In order to prevent others from seeing his abnormality, Ye Naiyu first patted his cheeks with both hands, adjusted his expression, and then slowly pushed the door in.

The dim light sprinkled on her body, although it was not very bright, but it made Ye Naiyu, who had come back from the dark all the way, squint his eyes and felt a little dazzling.

After adapting to the light, Nonoyu was surprised to find that the children who were supposed to sleep in the dormitory were gathered in the hall of the orphanage at this time.

And they were all sitting on a staggered side, their heads lit like fishing, and they looked drowsy.

And the younger children fell asleep directly on the table, saliva all over the table, and they didn't know what kind of meal they were eating in their dreams.

At this time, a child who was woken up by the sound of the door opening rubbed his eyes and looked at the door, only to suddenly wake up, and cried out in surprise:

"Sister Ye Naiyu, you're fat!"

The other children quickly woke up when they heard his voice, and those who didn't wake up were physically called out by the people next to them.

Dada......

There was a sound of dense footsteps, and the children got up one after another to surround Nonoyu, and even grabbed the hem of her clothes tightly with both hands, as if she would disappear as soon as she let go.

"What's wrong with everyone?"

Ye Naiyu was taken aback by everyone's enthusiasm, and while touching the children's heads to soothe, he asked with a puzzled expression.

At this moment an old woman dressed as a nun came out of the room on crutches, and said with a smile and a smile:

"Ye Naiyu, it's good that you're back."

"I've said many times that you just went to work and you'll be back later, but everyone just didn't believe it, and said they wouldn't sleep until you came back."

An older boy argued:

"Who asked the dean, every time you used to say that Sister Ye Naiyu went to work, she would not see anyone for a long time......"

Ye Naiyu also showed a helpless smile when he heard this.

After all, she couldn't explain to the children that her so-called part-time job in the past was actually leaving the village to carry out various espionage missions, and naturally she would not see anyone for a while.

And this time...... Well, it's actually the same difference, except that this time the mission is in the village, so you can come back every day.

So Ye Naiyu could only touch the other party's head and said gently:

"Don't worry, I won't go anywhere in the future, and I'll stay in Konoha forever."

"Sister Ye Naiyu, are you telling the truth?"

The boy asked with a look of surprise.

Ye Naiyu looked at the children's big eyes full of anticipation and nodded slightly.

"Well, of course it's true."

"Great!"

The children couldn't help but cheer.

They have experienced the warmth and coldness of human affection since they were children, and they know that Sister Ye Naiyu is a person who is really good to them, so they naturally hope that she can always stay by everyone's side.

When everyone finally stopped and were about to go back to bed, a gurgling sound sounded from their stomachs again.

And the sound comes and goes, like an alternative symphony.

Obviously, everyone is hungry again.

Although the orphanage is not enough for them to eat, it is not unusual for the children to be hungry quickly, and they have waited for Ye Naiyu for so long, and their stomachs have begun to protest again.

But everyone didn't shout for food, because Sister Nonoyu also had to go out to work to subsidize the orphanage, and they knew that the orphanage was short of money recently, but there was no spare money for them to eat supper.

On the contrary, as long as you fall asleep, you won't feel hungry.

Seeing everyone's heart-wrenching performance, Ye Naiyu sighed lightly, and then suddenly remembered something and took out a card from his arms.

"I almost forgot, I brought some gifts for you at the place where I worked."

"What, a gift?"

"What is it, can you eat it?"

When the children heard this, they finally cheered up again, and they all looked at Ye Naiyu expectantly.

"You'll find out later."

Nonoyu smiled gently.

In fact, when she left the tavern just now after work, Xia Yan gave her a storage card, saying that it was some leftover food from the sale, and she could take it back to the children if she didn't mind.

Originally, she had planned to give the children a taste tomorrow, but since everyone was hungry, she changed her mind and took out the card now.

So Ye Naiyu walked to a wooden table, put the storage card on the table, and according to the usage that Xia Yan taught her, the seal said "Solution"!

Immediately, white smoke exploded, and a table full of sumptuous dishes appeared on the table.

In addition to the snacks that are commonly available in taverns such as persimmon seeds, peanuts, and potato chips, there are also many foods that children like, such as grilled wings, barbecued meat, and hamburgers.

"Wow!"

The children let out an exclamation around the table, and all of them began to flow down.

Growing up in an orphanage, they had never seen so many delicious things in front of them.

But everyone was still very sensible, and they didn't reach out to the food until they were allowed to do so.

And Ye Naiyu looked at the steaming food, and he was also a little surprised.

After all, keeping the food in the storage card in its freshly prepared shape requires a high level of sealing.

It's no wonder that Mito-sama made an exception to accept Natsuhiko as a closed disciple.

However, what really surprised her was that since Xia Yan had such an ungodly method of preserving food, the tavern didn't have to worry about selling the leftovers of things.

However, Ye Naiyu also reacted quickly, and his heart warmed slightly.

These are not so much leftover food as gifts that Natsuhiko has prepared for the children in the orphanage.

Sure enough, Xia Yan is really a good person.

Ye Naiyu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, but soon his heart was darkened.

It's a pity that such a good person is her target this time......

At this moment, a voice interrupted Ye Naiyu's thoughts.

"Sister, is our family rich?"

A little girl who was still snotting asked, pointing to the food on the table with one hand and pulling the hem of Ye Naiyu's clothes with the other.

Ye Naiyu came back to his senses at this time, skillfully took out a handkerchief, squatted down and wiped the little girl's nose, and then explained with a gentle face:

"Not yet, but my sister will try to make money."

"And these foods are gifts from Brother Xia Yan, the boss of my workplace."

Saying that, Ye Naiyu stood up again and said to the children who were looking at the food on the table with greedy faces:

"So you're welcome, you can eat whatever you like."

As soon as the words were spoken, the children erupted in cheers and began to enjoy the food they had only heard but had not eaten.

"Don't worry, be careful."

Ye Naiyu watched everyone gobble up, with a happy look on his face, and he couldn't help but have a slight smile on his face.

At this moment, the old dean pulled Ye Naiyu aside and whispered with some concern:

"Ye Naiyu, why did your boss treat you so well on the first day of work, would he have ulterior motives?"

"Dean, you misunderstood, Boss Xia Yan is just a good person." Ye Naiyu said with a wry smile.

The dean watched her grow up since she was a child, and naturally knew that she used to be a root ninja.

However, the dean thought that she had broken away from her roots, and he didn't know that her going to work in the tavern this time was actually just a task for the group.

So the dean didn't know that the person with the real ulterior motives was Ye Naiyu......

……

There are two flowers, one on each branch.

Just when Ye Naiyu was tortured by his conscience for calculating a good person like Xia Yan, he didn't know that Xia Yan, a good person, was also thinking about how to calculate her......

At this time, Yusheng's family was in the underground laboratory.

Compared to the messy environment a few months ago, the lab is now much cleaner and brighter.

Even the floors, ceilings, and walls of the laboratory have changed from rock walls to thick steel slabs.

After all, Xia Yan now knew that the demise of the Vortex Clan might be related to the Black Jedi.

Therefore, as the inheritor of the intangible cultural heritage of the Vortex clan, he will naturally pay attention to strengthening his own protection.

And this laboratory, which hides many of his secrets, is even more important.

According to the information of the original work, the mayfly technique used by those who are Ban and Black Absolute is by intervening in organic networks such as plant roots and underground water veins that exist underground, so that they can move to various parts of the ninja world at high speed.

So Xia Yan simply sealed the entire laboratory with a steel plate to prevent the possibility of Bai Jue sneaking in.

At the same time, as before, various types of magic circles were drawn on the steel plates, providing comprehensive protection for the entire laboratory.

At this time, Xia Yan was standing in front of the display of the prototype, analyzing the strings of garbled rune spells that kept appearing in a program window.

After returning from the Radical Shinobi Tavern, Natsuhiko placed the chakra capacitor where Nonoyu Chakra was stored in the groove of the control panel of the prototype and read it with the prototype.

And what he saw now was the data obtained by the prototype machine from translating Nonoyu's chakra into rune techniques.

In fact, this chakra decoding program was originally a tool that Xia Yan planned to dig out the built-in functions hidden in the chakra by comparing the different nature of chakras among different people.

It can be said that it is one of the important means by which he explores the truth of chakra.

However, it was clear that due to his lack of deep research on chakra, the lack of a large number of primordial runes, and the small number of samples he had, the window was filled with large blank spaces that could not be deciphered or a string of erroneous garbled characters.

But it's not without its benefits.

At least in this way, the spell seal technique that Tuan hid in Ye Naiyu's body was as obvious as a firefly in the night.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for a series of regular rune spells to appear on the monitor.

Compared with other techniques that have no rules, it seems to be a white lady standing between a group of black uncles, and it is obviously the spell seal technique planted by Tuan Zang.

Xia Yan's sleepiness suddenly disappeared.

It's a real hammer!

Even if Yakushi Nonoyu has no other intentions to come to the tavern to work now, as long as there is a spell mark cast by Danzang in her body, she may turn into a poisonous blade that stabs him at any time.

Xia Yan, who noticed this, felt a pang in his heart, reminding himself that he couldn't take it lightly just because he had a good impression of Ye Naiyu.

However, even if Ye Naiyu was a wolf, Xia Yan still had no intention of knocking her out.

After all, if he drove her away, where would he find this kind of experiment that could provide him with a steady stream of information on the spell seal?

Just like using the prototype machine to analyze the ninjutsu culture, when Natsuhiko uses the prototype machine to analyze the chakra, he also needs to constantly consume the corresponding chakra.

And the chakra he had stolen from the root ninja had long since run out, and it was clear that the root ninja didn't have a hobby of playing the Root Ninja card, so Natsuhiko's research on the spell mark had long been stagnant due to a lack of samples.

So the appearance of Ye Naiyu just fills this gap.

As long as she continues to provide chakra, Natsuhiko can continue to study the spell seal.

And a series of brain holes based on spell marks that had already been generated in his mind could be realized!

Of course, the curse seal, as a magic weapon for Danzang to control the root ninja, is also the biggest reliance on his ability to stand tall every time he makes a mistake.

Therefore, as long as you find a way to crack the spell mark through the study of the spell mark, it is equivalent to choking the seven inches of the group!

After all, in addition to the ninjas who have been brainwashed and destroyed and absolutely obey Danzo, there are also some people who are similar to Ye Naiyu, who are forced to be driven by him because of the curse mark in their bodies.

So as long as you find a way to break the spell seal, you can easily make them turn against them, which is tantamount to cutting off one of Tuan Zang's arms.

If they find the right opportunity, their defection may be able to play a bigger role, and even give Tuan Zang a fatal blow.

To be honest, Natsuhiko was also very curious about what kind of expression Danzang would show when he found out that he had been betrayed by his trusted subordinates......
