Konoha, roots.

"Danzo-sama."

A masked, uniformed, long-orange ninja kneels on one knee in front of Shimura Danzo and reports to him.

"Nara Lankatsu, whom you ordered me to spy on, has now left his residence in the village and headed for Kikyo Castle.

"Through my secret observations, after he returned to Kikyo Castle, he did not go to the Kikyo Orphanage, but first went to the Nara clan's clan land."

"Well, that's good."

Shimura Danzo sat on the wide chair, listened to the report, and nodded calmly.

"After two days of waiting, I finally waited for him to leave the village."

In the last two days.

Shimura Danzo has been asking the root to increase the intensity of collecting intelligence information about Nara Raksutsuri.

And through the efforts of these two days, the roots have basically dug up the life trajectory of Nara Langui.

Even the undisclosed results of the battle between Nara Langui and Uchiha Shisui two days ago were looted out by the root ninjas.

After learning that Nara Langui not only "forced" the wave of Feng Shuimen to summon the giant toad of Myoki Mountain.

He also defeated the Uchiha clan's most outstanding contemporary genius, Uchiha Shisui.

Shimura Danzo's thirst for Nara Katsura became even more urgent.

Regardless of whether Nara Langui suddenly changed from a "ninja school repeater" to a "super genius", there was no intervention in the matter of the patriarch of the Nara clan.

But Nara's record is real!

Shimura Tunzo prefers to believe that with the help of the Nara clan, Nara has solved his physical problems and successfully discovered his natural abilities.

For this kind of young ninja who realizes his talent at an astonishing rate, Shimura couldn't be more satisfied.

He deliberately asked the Ninja of the Root to spread the news that "the Ninjas of the Nara clan defeated the geniuses of the Uchiha clan".

In order to let the radical and irascible Uchiha clan attack Nara Sakatsura, and then collect more intelligence information about Nara Sakatsura to plan for future recruitment.

But what I didn't expect was.

Two days have passed, not only have the Uchiha clan not moved, but even Nara Langui, who is the person concerned, has been nesting at home and not going out at all.

The level of laziness of the ninjas of the Nara clan is something that Shimura has seen.

But it also added to the dissatisfaction in his heart.

Such a genius, instead of working diligently and dedicating himself to Konoha, he only knows how to be lazy at home.

It's a waste of your talent!

Therefore, after waiting for nearly two days, Shimura Danzou planned to let the roots take the initiative.

After thinking for a moment, Shimura Danzou looked to the other side and said, "On the shrine maiden's side, haven't you agreed to take our mission yet?" ”

The full name of the shrine maiden is "Wandering Witch".

Yakushi Nonoyu's special code name at the root.

In Shimura Danzo's opinion, he wants to recruit Nara Langui into the roots.

The best and easiest way to use it is to let the people around Nara take advantage of it.

That's right.

Shimura Danzo's original plan was for Yakushi Nonoyu to bring Nara Langui directly to the roots!

It's a pity that the pharmacist Ye Naiyu directly refused the order from the root for some reason, and showed a certain attitude and idea of breaking away from the control of the root.

This is something that Shimura Danzo will never allow.

Considering the particularity of the "Wandering Shrine Maiden", Shimura Danzou intends to give the medicine master Nonoyu a certain buffer time.

If the other party is willing to take the Root task, and give the Root a young genius.

Then Shimura Danzou will not do anything to Yakushi Nonoyu.

But if the other party continues to maintain the same attitude......

Sou!

Another figure flickered in front of Shimura Danzo and knelt down on one knee.

"Nope."

The ninja who appeared later bowed his head and reported.

"The shrine maiden unilaterally cut off contact with the root and refused to continue communication with me."

"It's a pity, such an elite spy ninja."

Shimura Danzou sighed slightly.

"The shrine maiden knows too much secret information about Konoha, and her presence has threatened Konoha's safety......

"Let's go with the second plan.

"Xin, Lin, this mission is up to you!"

"Yes!" X2

With two near-identical responses.

The two root ninjas vanished in place.

……

There are two flowers, one on each branch.

Kikyo City.

Nara said goodbye to the two patriarchs, and then set off in the direction of the Shikameikan.

He plans to come up with a basic version of the Shadow Bound Bullet as soon as possible, and then share it with the family, guiding the new patriarch and allowing him to issue a new high-level mission.

'Compared to [Lacquer Eye], the value of [Shadow Binding Bullet] is definitely not as good. ’

Nara's mind is full of thoughts.

But for the family, the B-level [Shadow Bondage Bullet] may be better to use than the A-level [Lacquer Eye], after all, it is less difficult to learn and can be popularized on a larger scale. ’

'It's best to take this opportunity to dig out another S-class mission from the new patriarch. If not, the A-class mission is not unacceptable......

Thinking of this, Nara Langui's heart moved, summoned the virtual panel, and looked at the B-level and C-level ninjutsu he had newly obtained.

And it's not just a panel quest, in reality, I can also use the [Shadow Binding Bullet] to replace a B-level water escape ninjutsu from the hands of the new patriarch. ’

'In terms of attainments in water escape, although the second-generation Hokage Senju is not as good as the second-generation water shadow ghost lantern Phantom Moon who was born in the ghost lamp clan, he has also developed a large number of high-level, few, and powerful water escape ninjutsu! ’

With his thoughts diverging, Nara arrives at the Rokumeikan and skillfully builds a tool clone for them to join in the study of ninjutsu.

Not long after, the regular [Shadow Binding Bullet] with the "Spiral Acceleration Effect" was removed, and it was successfully researched by Nara Langui and his [Shadow Clones].

Compared to the [Spiral Shadow Bond], the basic version of the [Shadow Bond] has not been weakened in any way, except that the firing speed has been changed from "beyond the speed of sound" to "reaching the speed of sound".

Now that the [Spiral Pill] and the corresponding fusion ninjutsu have been successfully studied, the task of the next stage is to study how to transform the [Super Beast Pseudo-Painting]! ’

Nara Langui finishes his research, leaves the Shikameikan, and then goes to the Kikyo Orphanage as planned.

The Kikyo Orphanage is still a prosperous scene of crowds and fragrant fried chicken.

"A bit of a miscalculation......"

Nara Raksura overlooks the grand view of the Kikyo Orphanage.

"I thought that the flow of people would be reduced a lot, but I didn't expect so many people to gather here.

"I completely underestimated the allure of fried chicken for the Akido family......

Just when Nara Langui was thinking about whether to come back another day.

Suddenly there was a shouting voice ahead.

"Sold out! All the raw materials have been sold! ”

The fat nun shouted in a hoarse voice.

"Come back next time!"

The Akimichi ninja who bought the last fried chicken was overjoyed.

The Autumn Road ninja, who was about to line up in front of him, gritted his teeth.

After a lot of noise, the crowd gradually dissipated.

Nara took advantage of this opportunity and quietly slipped into the Kikyo orphanage.

After a few days, the scene in the Kikyo orphanage has changed a lot, and you can see all kinds of bottles and cans, hot pans and boiling oil, and scattered chicken feathers and chicken bones all over the ground.

As for the people in the Kikyo Orphanage, both adults and children have a look on their faces that they will have survived the catastrophe.

"Why are the ninjas of the Akido clan so good at eating......"

"The fried chicken I fried just now went into his stomach one second, and the next second he went to the queue again......"

"I never thought that I would one day make too much money......"

At this time, the people in the Kikyo Orphanage also discovered the arrival of Nara Lankatsu.

The fat nun and the thin friar rushed together, their faces mixed with joy and bitterness.

They thought about making money with fried chicken, but they didn't think that fried chicken would make money like that.

Nara Langui talked with the two and learned about the situation in the last three days.

On the first day, under the leadership of Yakushi Nonoyu, the Kikyo Orphanage still made fried chicken step by step and sold it at the door of the Akido family.

Then, that morning, the fried chicken was sold out.

In the afternoon, the ninjas of the Akido clan gathered in Kikyo Castle.

More and more Autumn Road ninjas have attracted more and more residents of Kikyo City.

In just three days.

Kikyo City - No, all the chickens in Konoha Village are about to be killed!

"That's a good thing, isn't it?"

Nara Langui looked at the fat nun and the thin monk who seemed to be wrapped in a layer of "fried chicken fragrance" all over her body, and smiled and comforted.

"At least this year, the flow of funds from the Kikyo Orphanage will no longer be an issue.

"By the way, where is Sister Ye Naiyu? How I didn't see her. ”

The fat nun pointed in the direction, "A ninja just came to the dean, and I saw them go that way. ”

Unexpected tasks?

Nara Langui nodded, and then went to his single room, intending to wait for Yakushi Nonoyu to return.

But he had less than a quarter of an hour of rest when someone came knocking at the door.

Immediately after, the pharmacist Ye Naiyu pushed the door and entered.

"I'm sorry, Nara-kun, I've been waiting for a long time."

“…… Nara-kun? ”

Nara Langui was just about to greet the visitor, but coldly heard a very unfamiliar name from the other party's mouth.

"Well, what's wrong?"

Yakushi Nonoyu's expression was unusual, and she walked into the room with a steady pace.

"When you came to the orphanage, did you go to the queue to buy fried chicken?

"Let me tell you, the fried chicken that our orphanage has recently developed tastes very good! The ninjas of the Akido clan said it was okay to eat it. ”

"Really?"

Nara Langui looked at Yakushi Nonoyu, and his gaze changed to very cold.

"Dean Pharmacist, I have a question I would like to ask."

"Say it."

Yakushi Nonoyu's gentle face showed her usual soft expression.

"If I knew, I'd tell you."

"The question I want to ask is......"

Nara took a step closer and raised his hands, pointing his fingertips at Yakushi Nonoyu's shadow.

"Who are you?"
