Hokage: Let Suffering Never Fly

Chapter 16 Poison
After learning about Gaia's needs, Tsunade rummaged through boxes and cabinets at home, and finally found the "poison" Gaia needed in a corner at the bottom of a box.

Tsunade looked at the things in her hands and recalled the scene many years ago when her second grandfather was scolded by his elder grandfather for developing these things.

Unfortunately, such a scene will never be seen again.

The poison in your hands is actually just a defective product.

At that time, the second grandfather wanted to develop a powerful poison that was colorless and odorless, but he still couldn't do it after all.

The "poison" in his hand is enough to meet Gaia's needs.

Poisoned fish and shrimps dozens of kilometers downstream of a river, and made anyone who ate these dead fish and shrimps continue to suffer from abnormal conditions such as diarrhea and weakness.

But what is very interesting is that if the water is boiled and used directly, it will not cause harm to the human body.

To tell the truth, in war, this poison would not work at all.

No ninja with the slightest vigilance would eat these abnormally dead fish and shrimps.

So, Tsunade didn't even report this matter.

This was an assessment with a huge gap in numbers, so she naturally wanted to add a little more leverage to her disciples' side.

"Teacher, last night I met Rope Tree and..." Gaia told Tsunade what happened that night.

Tsunade was very surprised to hear Gaia's judgment.

Matt Dai, this genin who has never shown any signs of failure, can actually kill Gaia in one blow.

Gaia's current strength can be regarded as Chunin.

This also means that Matt Dai's attainments in physical arts are definitely not weak, and he will not be the lowest among Jonin.

"Maybe, you can mention it to the teacher."

No!Thinking that Naoki is now practicing with the other party, Tsunade became a little selfish again.

If the other party gets the attention of the village and becomes busy, what will happen to the rope tree?
In this case, it’s better to let everything take its course...

"Don't tell anyone about this." Gaia nodded after hearing Tsunade's instructions.

I am not from Konoha either, so I reminded Tsunade just to reassure her, even if Matt Dai is a buried talent, why should I do unnecessary things.

Of course, Gaia also asked about Kosuke Maruhoshi, and learned that this ninja was already registered with Hokage, and this time he was entrusted by Tsunade to take care of Natoki.

From Tsunade's mouth, Gaia knew why Maruboshi Kosuke was still just a genin.

When Gu Jie was just a ninja, he was eager for quick success and instant benefits during a mission, and rashly commanded and ordered two companions to die.

So he swore an oath to the second generation Hokage Senju Tobirama to always only be a genin, so he was called the "Ten Thousand Years Genin", but his true strength can be regarded as an elite even among Jonin.

In the past 20 years, Kosuke Maruhoshi has never been able to get over the shadow of his companions' deaths because of him, and has repeatedly refused the third generation's orders to promote him to Jonin.

Whenever Kosuke Maruyoshi is mentioned in the village, they only know the title of Wannian Xiaren.

Now, he has become a very special ninja.

If the war is not tight, he will take on a simple task and silently guard the village.

If the front line is tight, Hokage will give him some special tasks to silently guard the village.

Maruboshi Kosuke, who was carrying a big blame, buried countless enemies of Konoha.

……

In the evening of the next day, Gaia came to that location again. Nasuki was exercising with Matt Dai, and Maruhoshi Kosuke was preparing dinner next to him.

Gaia's arrival did not plan for the two of them to practice. She went straight to the fire and proposed the idea of ​​​​discussing with Maruboshi Kosuke again.

According to Maruhoshi Kosuke's usual habits, he would not fight Gaia last night.

But last night, the secret barbecue ingredients that Gaia brought out were really good, and he also heard about what Gaia had been doing during this time.

With his own strength, he made the graduates of the ninja school work hard and practice hard.

This is undoubtedly a good thing for ninja school students.

Deeply realize your own shortcomings and work hard to practice.

Maruyoshi Kosuke realized this only after he entered the battlefield and hovered on the verge of death.

But now, these students actually have the opportunity to have this awareness before going to the battlefield.

This year's students may become Konoha's hope.

Therefore, yesterday he made an exception and showed his strength, making Gaia realize this.

How many years has he been in the ninja world, how can he not know why Gaia proposed to compete with them yesterday.

There are people outside people, and there are days outside the sky.

Don't underestimate your opponent just because of his ninja rating.

This is what he wants to tell Gaia.

Of course, he didn't expect that Matt Dai, who talked about his practice and self-discipline of a man every day, was actually the same as him.

Kosuke Maruhoshi originally wanted to tell the third generation about this matter, but when he thought that it was related to Nawaki, he felt that this might be the backhand left by the Senju family. remained silent.

Maruboshi Kosuke took the spoon and tapped it on the edge of the big black pot where the soup was being boiled. He stood up and moved his hands and feet. "I'm just a middle-aged man whose body is about to be buried. Gaia-kun, please be gentle."

Believe in you!
Half of your body can knock me into the ground!

Gaia has a dagger in one hand and a kunai in the other, facing Kosuke Maruhoshi who is holding a spoon.

The new sparring partner brought Gaia a completely different experience.

The experience of fighting against a strong person is very rare, and the opponent still intends to use tricks, so Gaia will naturally gain more things.

"This kid...why has he become stronger after not seeing him overnight?"

"Zangzhuo? Impossible, right?"

"Can skills such as physical skills and swordsmanship be mastered quickly? Or is his talent really that high?"

As soon as he started, Kosuke Maruhoshi unexpectedly discovered that Gaia's strength was much stronger than last night.

Between fists and palms, Kosuke Maruyoshi discovered something unusual.

There was actually a tiny amount of chakra integrated into his body through a brief contact, and the chakra circulated and dissolved Gaia's power.

Gaia, who noticed that the power was dispelled, said silently: "It seems that the strong Jnin level is still easy to detect the existence of power."

In the final analysis, strength is the use of chakra. The higher the degree of control over the body, the easier it is to discover the invading strength.

Even though Gaia's physical and sword skills have reached the intermediate level, he is still no match for Kosuke Maruyoshi. Kosuke Maruhoshi has already knocked on the head several times with the big spoon in his hand.

The primary physical and sword skills are roughly close to the level of Chunin, while the intermediate level should be close to the level of Jonin.

But unfortunately, this technical skill also requires matching physical fitness.

Gaia is only nine years old now, and her wandering career in the past few years has caused her development to be completely behind.

Even though it has stabilized recently, it has not been able to fully make up for its growth.

Many times it is:
The eyes said: I saw it.

The head immediately said: understand, the order has been given.

Body:? ? ?What are you doing?
Facing the attack of a genuine jonin, Gaia could react, but her body couldn't.

The result of the battle is a combination of various factors.

Dong dong dong

With the exhaustion of physical strength, Gaia's reaction became slower and slower. Kosuke Maruhoshi took the opportunity to knock Gaia unconscious with several heavy hammers one after another.

"Stop, stop." Gaia waved her hands again and again, indicating that she would stop fighting.

He didn't use the 100% passive of receiving kunai with his bare hands and the "phantom sword" special effect he just stole from Maruboshi Kosuke yesterday, so he didn't go all out.

In this fight, he just wanted to test whether strength can work against the Jōnin. Now that it has been demonstrated, naturally there is no need to discuss it.

Wait a while and try it again when you're exchanging ideas with Matt Dai.
