Chapter 701: The reason why Bai Yueguang is nostalgic is because he carries his lost past

The night of the Nine-Tails riot outside Konoha Village had little impact on Konoha, especially for the villagers, the biggest impact was that they were woken up.

The explanation given by the village is to modify the terrain on the periphery of the village and free up a large area of flat land to plan for the expansion of the village, and the Nine-Tails and the Nine-Tails are the people responsible for changing the terrain.

It's just that because the sealing enchantment went a little wrong, the sound insulation effect that should have been there didn't take effect, and on this matter, Hokage assisted Bo Feng Shuimen to explain and apologize.

In fact, when this statement first came out, many people didn't believe it, and a few people swore that it was definitely the Nine-Tails Pillar out of control.

The village is required to no longer shield the Nine-Tails pillar force, and the villagers of the whole village will vote to determine the punishment level.

But this small group of people was soon invited to the garrison department for tea and safety lectures.

After a day of changes, the village's sealing barrier finally reopened, and the villagers who had resumed passage gradually believed the village's statement.

In the past, when I stood at the entrance of the village and looked out, although there was a flat forest nearby, there were mountains with mountains and mountains, but after only a day and two nights, the terrain changed dramatically.

From the entrance of the village to the end of the horizon, it is a smooth road, and if it were to be expanded, the village would be doubled.

With the evidence, and the fact that there was no damage to the village that night, the villagers accepted this statement even if they still had a little doubt in their hearts.

Three months passed quickly, and a tripartite meeting was staged in the Land of Thunder, and although the fighting stopped for the time being, the Mist Shinobi and the Sand Shinobi were still stationed in the Land of Thunder.

If the negotiation plan goes bankrupt, I'm afraid it will be another big battle that will attract the attention of the entire ninja world.

As for Konoha Village, it is peaceful, the village has improved the sealing enchantment, and the dark department has acted frequently at first, but gradually it has returned to normal, as for the expansion that is good. It's already being planned.

I heard that the difficulty was to buy out or lease the land outside the village from the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, but Konoha couldn't afford to buy it out, and the village was not satisfied with the rent and term of the lease, so it seemed to be deadlocked.

But the villagers are still very optimistic, after all, now that the village has more and more foreign population, and the various taxes generated in the village have also risen visibly, maybe the village will be able to afford land in a while.

No matter how bad it is. The value of their aboriginal properties has been appreciating, and the longer the expansion drags on, the more valuable their properties will be, and with the current situation in the village, it is difficult for the bubble to burst.

At most, it will drop a little after the expansion, but after the expansion, their residence is in the core area, which is also in demand.

Even though it was still a time of war, Konoha had a sense of prosperity, and it was the only one of the five major powers.

"I heard that the village was going to be expanded, but I didn't expect it to be so big, I almost mistook the road."

Outside the village, after a few months of natural growth, the forest has become less artificial stiffness, and it has become natural, and a white-haired man is walking through the forest.

Finally, in the gap between the trees, I saw the gate of Konoha and smiled.

It's been nearly half a year since I said goodbye, and after getting together with my disciples half a year ago and discussing Naruto's name, I left the village.

Mizuto and Tatsuma, a half-student, no longer need his care, and they have even grown up to be better than him as a teacher, so Jiraiya once again embarked on a journey to find the child of destiny.

Although he felt that he had already selected several candidates, Mizumon, Tatsuma, or Nagato in the Land of Rain all had the potential to change the ninja world.

Even Tatsuma, who can only be regarded as a student of half a student, has grown to the point where he is changing the ninja world, but Jiraiya still has no intention of stopping his steps, after all, the village is a sad place.

"It's time to face it calmly, eleven years have passed, and I've seen it."

With a heroic smile on his face, Jiraiya walked towards the gate of the village, thinking about what gifts to give when he came back to attend the first meal banquet for the students and children.

On a recent trip to the Land of Rain, he bought something very interesting and gave him an artistic pendant called a bullet.

"Jiraiya-sama!"

The guards at the gate greeted Jiraiya when they saw that it was Jiraiya, and seeing that he was still so popular, the smile on Jiraiya's face became even happier, and he walked into the village with a greeting.

When he passed through the position of the sealing barrier, he felt that his body was light, but when he felt it carefully, it seemed that nothing had changed, just as it was his own illusion, and he continued to walk inside.

When he returned to the village, he felt much more familiar, although the interior of Konoha has been changing, but the overall plan has been set early, and no matter how much the planning structure is changed, it will not change.

And it's only been half a year, and there haven't been many actual changes in the village, and I came to the Hokage Building by car, obviously there is a door, but I still chose to fly through the wall and go through the window.

"Tatsuma!"

Flipping into the Hokage's office, Jiraiya came to make an appearance, Tatsuma nodded at him, and said, "Welcome back, Jiraiya-sensei." ”

"Haha, I've kept you waiting, some time ago in the Land of Rain, I encountered some things, and I couldn't rush back, so I can only come back now to attend Naruto-chan's first dinner party."

Jiraiya briefly explained why he delayed coming back for three months after receiving the news, Tatsuma smiled and said, "You can keep it and explain it to Mizuto, Kushina, and Naruto." ”

"Watergate won't be angry with me, Kushina can't wait for me not to come back, as for Naruto. He doesn't remember yet, and when he grows up, he will say that when he was a child, I will always accompany him, hahaha~"

Jiraiya pulled out the seat opposite Tatsuma and sat down, and then asked, "It is said that you, the fourth Hokage, plan to expand Konoha, according to Ling's style, why have you not taken action after a few months?" Is it a rumor? ”

"If you don't have money, you don't just buy a piece of land, buildings, infrastructure, supporting facilities and various plans, which don't need money?

It's not a few decades ago, when a piece of land was encircled and the villagers spontaneously built houses to form a village, but now the cost of expanding a little bit is exaggerated.

Or, Mr. Jiraiya, you can sponsor a little. ”

Tatsuma sighed and said, although the expansion was an excuse at first, but he and the daimyo probed and found that it was not impossible, but everything could not be avoided money.

The money from the Daimyo's Mansion has long been divided, and every money has a place to go, and the money deposited by the villagers in the village capital management committee is enough to buy land, but it is not able to build it.

And this money has to be kept for the villagers to withdraw and settle the interest every year, and it can't be spent all at once, so . I had to wait a little longer.

Jiraiya patted his belly and said, "How much money am I?" Do you like it? ”

"I can see as much as I want."

Tatsuma raised his eyebrows and looked at Jiraiya with burning eyes, Jiraiya may not be the richest ninja, but he must be the ninja with the most liquidity.

Not to mention anything else, let's just say that the remuneration for the settlement of the Third Ninja World War is an unimaginable amount, and it is not like other people, there is no place to spend money at all.

Several commanders in the three wars, Orochimaru reinvested his money into his own scientific research projects, and Tsunade also funded the money for the medical ninja training class and Nonoyu's medical team.

Tatsuma himself has to be responsible for the expenses of the entire Thousand Hands Clan, and when the ninja in the village encounters some unfortunate things, he has to take the lead in donating, and he has to be the one who donates the largest share.

Watergate has been the commander for a few months, plus the water country can't make any oil and water at all in that battle, and Watergate is too honest, so he doesn't get much money.

Fuyue and Hizuki are both ninja clan patriarchs, and the money is considered the money of the clan, and they can't be used at will, and the relationship between Tatsuma and them is not good enough to ask for money, and the rest. It's just Zilai.

The golden bachelor has been traveling for more than two years, and he doesn't spend much money at all, after all, he is also a ninja who even chooses to evade tickets and sneak in hot spring hotels, so the liquidity in his hand is definitely the most.

Zilai also touched his chin and said, "I have some spare money, and it's not bad to use it as an investment, so it's better . Develop all the hot springs in the new area into hot spring hotels, and then put them under my control? ”

"No, you can be given share dividends, but you must not be given management rights, and you can't even enjoy any privileges of the hot spring hotel."

If Jiraiya becomes the owner of the hot spring inn, Tatsuma knows with his knees that Jiraiya can do something angry and resentful, so he must not let Jiraiya interfere.

"That's not interesting, I might as well take my money and go to Yunokuni and buy a few hot spring inns."

Zilai also stretched his waist, obviously not interested in the dividends that Chen Ma said, and Chen Ma didn't want to give in, so he changed the topic and said:

"Let's not talk about this for now, in two days Naruto's first dinner party, let's have a good drink and have a good chat."

"Why, for the sake of the development of the village, you actually became a wine companion. Lang? You don't drink a bit. ”

Jiraiya said with a smile, Tatsuma waved his hand and said, "It's not okay to drink with others, I'm still happy to drink with you." ”

"You kid just sounds good, so say so, if you want to convince me, just at the wine table!"

Jiraiya stood up and said, "You kid didn't confiscate my apartment, did you?" ”

"No, am I like that?"

"Like."

After saying that, Jiraiya also left through the window, but instead of leaving the Hokage Building, he went to chat with Mizumon.

Two days later, at Naruto's first food banquet, Jirai was also beaten up by Tsunade and Kushina, because Jiraiya tried to dip his chopsticks in wine for Naruto to drink, saying that the wine was also meaty, and the first food banquet should be tasted and something like that.

Jirai, who had a blue nose and swollen face, was also ordered to stay away from Naruto, and could only stay by Tatsuma's side and drink wine, Tatsuma also broke his vows today, and he also drank a lot of glasses with Jirai.

I don't know why, watching Tsunade and Kato sit together, hugging Naruto, it's like a family of three, tonight's Jiraiya is drunk quickly, Tatsuma is not drunk yet, Jiraiya is already in a daze.

Tatsuma looked at Jiraiya, who was propping up the bar with his elbows, supporting his face with the root of his palm, and leaving only the back of his head for himself, as if inadvertently asking, "Jiraiya-sensei, do you remember a question I asked you ten years ago?" ”

"Huh?"

Jiraiya asked in a daze, Tatsuma took a sip of wine and asked, "Suppose. Suppose my teacher wants to do something harmful to Konoha, what would you do? This time, I want to know the answer. ”

Jilai didn't answer immediately, looking at Tsunade with a nostalgic look, or maybe it wasn't Tsunade, but the past self who admired a girl, but for a long time, he still said: "I'll stop her, even. Kill her. ”

"I see."
