The Red Moon of Konoha

Chapter 196 The Coming Chunin Exam
"Environment modulator, heater... Is this kind of boring stuff what I'm after?"

"For something like this... I killed my brother?"

"...My life is like a boring joke!!!"

Located in a rocky cave under snow.

This is an alternate base that Longshu opened up in the Snow Country.

Now it is also the prison where Ye Yezi, a subordinate who cannot be cleared of suspicion, is under house arrest.

Feng Hua Nu Tao was sitting on a chair at the moment, looking like a dog in the water who had been beaten badly.

Not long ago, he witnessed his niece opening the so-called treasure of the Snow Country in the dark, and found that the rumored treasure was just a super-large heating machine that had not yet been built... This thing brought him destructive power beyond imagination.

Everything he pursued was shattered at that moment, and after giving so much, he finally found that he was just a monkey sitting by the water and fishing for the moon... It's really absurd and ridiculous!

Heater?
That kind of thing, even if it is a big guy who can affect the entire Snow Country, with his wisdom, it can be completed in a year or two at most.

And he spent more than ten years on this thing...
"Hey, I said you don't want to die, do you?"

Ye Yezi looked at Feng Hua Nu Tao who was sitting opposite.

"Don't die at this time! I managed to save you from Konoha Ninja. If you commit suicide...then my work will be in vain?"

Just when Yeyezi opened his mouth to continue to say something.

A dark void opens in the corner of the room.

Wearing a high-collared white windbreaker, with a childlike body, white hair, red eyes, and bandages on his face, Beiliuhu came out of it. The tall and burly Miyashiro Hirayama followed behind Beiliuhu like a follower, In other words, he is now a follower guard.

"Good job, Yeyezi!"

Beiliu praised Yeyezi very casually.

Their eyes did not stay on Yeyezi for a second longer.

"Master Beliuho."

Yeyezi immediately stood up and bowed his head to Beiliuhu in salute.

As the chief researcher of Xuye Palace, Beiliuhu's status is much higher than that of Yeyezi. Except for the top three members of the Ten Blades, no one dares to treat Beiliuhu lightly.

"Are you the wind and flowers and raging waves?"

Beiliuhu ignored Yeyezi, he stared straight at Feng Hua Nu Tao who was sitting still, "The Chakra armor you studied is very interesting, although my main focus is biological technology, this kind of physical machinery It's not my field of expertise... However, your technique of increasing chakra is very ingenious, and it uses not only physics, but also biotechnology..."

He just stared at the raging waves.

Although Feng Hua Nu Tao was the weakest among the people present, in Beiliuhu's eyes, compared to Ye Yezi and Ping Shan Gong Shichiro, who are artificially manufactured combat weapons, people like Feng Hua Nu Tao are real talents.

From scratch, he developed something like the Chakra Armor by himself.

Such a person is not a genius, who is a genius?
As for character?
It seems that there seems to be no good scientist among the most powerful scientists in the ninja world?
"I don't need to say anything extra, I think your brain is very useful, so... Come to the Void Night Palace! I can provide you with an independent research room to research and develop chakra armor or other technologies , with your wisdom, living in such a small place as the Snow Country is too condescending."

Beryuhu sent an invitation.

"it is good!"

The wind and flowers and raging waves responded blankly.

Now that things have happened, he feels that nothing matters anymore, and it might be a good thing to be able to leave his hometown of Snow Country.

"very good!"

Beiliuhu doesn't care what Fenghua Nutao is thinking, what he needs is Fenghua Nutao's useful head, as long as Fenghua Nutao can continue to use his brain for research, then he doesn't care what Fenghua Nutao is thinking, Or want to do something.

"Okay, come with me!"

Yeyezi was still kept, and Beiliuhu didn't leave any room for negotiation. He took Hirayama Gong Qilang and Fenghua Nutao back to Xuye Palace, and Yeyezi would continue to stay in this cold country I don't know how long.

----

Leaf Village.

The Fourth Hokage, who received the report from Kakashi and Obito, frowned deeply.

The death of the watermelon mountain puffer ghost is not a big deal, but Xuya Palace... Or, why did Uchiha Ryuki send Yoyako to the Snow Country?Obito and the others didn't know that Yeyako had been instigated to rebel, but Minato had to consider whether the instigation of Yeyako had been discovered?
"No, it shouldn't be so, should this still be on guard? Are you guarding against my Flying Thunder God Technique?"

"And... the Chakra Armor, is the target the Wind Flower Raging Wave who created the Chakra Armor?"

There is a whole set of chakra armor on his desk.

There are also three pairs of chakra-sensing goggles.

These things were all brought back from Obito confiscation, some of them were seized from the battlefield, and some of them directly asked the new Queen Fuka Koyuki to get them from the warehouse of Snow Country...

The Land of Snow has signed an alliance contract with the Land of Fire, and hired ninjas to protect the Chakra Armor manufacturing factory. Konoha has the priority to purchase Chakra Armor... The newly enthroned queen deserves it She is a queen who has been tempered by wandering for more than ten years. Although she is still a little jerky, she can already do what a queen should do.

"Lord Hokage."

Nara Deer didn't knock on the door for a long time, and broke in directly.

"What's wrong? Lu Jiu?"

Minato was a little surprised.

He had never seen such a restless Lu Jiu.

"Master Naruto, I have discovered Uchiha Nagaru's source of wealth."

As soon as Shikahisa opened his mouth, he said something that Minato didn't know how to react, Uchiha Nagaru's source of income?Does this thing... make sense?It seems to be meaningful. An organization as big as Xuye Palace cannot survive without healthy finances. Finding a way to cut off its financial resources can indeed affect Xuye Palace.

However, this kind of organization has various ways to get money, such as kidnapping, extortion, robbery... This kind of unconventional way of making money, even if you know it, it is useless.

The Akatsuki organization manipulates small country wars to earn commissions is one of the ways to make money.

"Master Hokage, I think it's better for you to find out about this matter."

Lu Jiu's attitude was quite persistent.

"Lu Jiu, what's going on?"

Minato looked at Shikaku suspiciously.

"When I was searching for the whereabouts of Xuyue Palace, I found that the connection between this flying island and the ninja world was far deeper than I imagined. The resources needed to maintain such a large organization are huge, but the ninja world It can’t be said that there is nothing wrong with it, but there have been no new wars in those small countries these years, and there have been no other incidents where large amounts of money flowed... until I found out that several big nobles in the Kingdom of Fire had mobilized large sums of money funds."

Minato listened patiently and silently.

"During this period of time, I tried to find a way to investigate further, and found that many noble families had similar actions, some consumed the gold and silver hoarded from their ancestors, and some did not hesitate to pawn antiques and fields to raise money. Of course, such cases are rare , Most of the nobles have accumulated gold and silver... In short, after my investigation, I found that all the nobles who have similar behaviors have one thing in common."

"Same point?"

Minato is also interested.

When it comes to the many nobles in the Land of Fire, he, Hokage, has to be concerned. After all, these are Konoha's sources of income.

"Yes, the people in power in these aristocratic families are basically old and dying, but after raising a large amount of money, the old guys who seemed to be dead survived They are alive and kicking, you know the head of the Heimusi family, right?"

"Isn't Da Zouqing? Isn't he too old to go home eight years ago? Could it be..."

Great Cangqing.

It is the highest official of the Ministry of Finance, in charge of the revenue and expenditure of various government offices, land taxation, currency, gold and silver, and commodity prices... In short, this thing is the department in charge of the money bag of the country of fire, belonging to Hemu Ye most often deal with a department.

Minato naturally knew the head of the Kurokiji family who resigned from office eight years ago.

"That's right, I was also taken aback. Eight years ago, the old guy was so old that he couldn't walk anymore, but according to the information I collected, just last month, his No. 20 seven sons were born. Already!" Lu Jiu had a paradoxical expression on his face.

"...Heimu Temple is the master, he is already 90 years old, right?"

Minato asked quietly.

"If I'm not mistaken, I'm 93 years old this year."

Lu Jiu replied.

"..."

Minato was speechless for a long time, not knowing what to say?Should we envy the old man for being energetic, or envy the old man for being full of energy?
"I made a careful investigation and found that many nobles who were almost dead have survived. This situation is not only in the country of fire, but also in the country of wind. The country of thunder has also found that it is earth It is difficult to collect information on the Land of Water and the Land of Water... but if it is true, it is probably no exception." Lu Jiu continued.

"Lu Jiu, don't be foolish, just tell me the result!"

"······················································································································································································································································ seeming to have the ability to extend the life of others , Uchiha Nagarju uses this method to make money."

"Extending life... can this kind of thing be done?"

No wonder Minato was puzzled.

Even though there are all kinds of limit, secret and forbidden techniques, most of them are better techniques for killing people. Medical ninjutsu has only been gradually perfected in recent years. In the past, ninjas in the Warring States period were injured. But it's all relying on the body to carry it over, prolonging life and so on... It's really an area that Minato has never touched.

"I have contacted several nobles to confirm this matter, because due to the existence of Uchiha Nagarju, no one is willing to provide any written testimony, and I don't think that thing will be of any use... ·····Knowing that Uchiha Takumi still possesses a similar ability, I think it should be the greatest value."

Minato agreed with what Lu Jiu said.

Knowing this, the extermination plan against Uchiha Tatsuya can be modified and more preparations made.

At the very least, Uchiha Nagaru is definitely not easy to kill.

Just like the first generation of Naruto has the ability to heal Muji, Uchiha Madara once said that "on the battlefield, no one can kill Hashirama", maybe Uchiha Ryuki also has a similar ability. ·····In short, this news is by no means dispensable.

"Good job, Luku."

"It's just a matter of duty. To be honest, the more I investigate about Uchiha Tatsuki, the more I..." Lu Jiu stretched out his hand and touched his head, sighed, and said with a wry smile: "The more I feel Fear, Uchiha Nagarjuna... No, Nagarjuna-kun, I have no idea what he is going to do. He is already so powerful, strong enough to make the village fearful, but he is still dormant. The magnitude of his plot is really frightening."

"Hey! Let's not talk about this, Lu Jiu, you won't patronize investigating these things and forget about the Chunin exam, right?"

Minato changed the subject to a lighter subject.

"how is this possible?"

Lu Jiu restrained the bitterness on his face, smiled and said: "It's almost the same as the discussions with Sand Ninja and Mist Ninja. It has been decided to hold the Chunin Exam in September. You will have to make a decision on the exact date, Mr. Hokage. When the time comes, The Fourth Kazekage and the Fourth Mizukage will both be here... the specific reports are being sorted out by the people below."

"Will Kazekage and Mizukage come? It seems that this time there will be a lot of excitement... By the way, Shikahisa, are you going to let Shikamaru take part in this Chunin exam?"

"This is something that Asma needs to consider. He is Shikamaru's guide, Jonin. I can't step aside and intervene in this matter."

Lu Jiu shrugged his shoulders, and then asked back: "But Naruto and Sasuke are going to participate this time, right?"

"Haha! This depends on what Obito says, I, Hokage, can't do it for me!"

Minato laughed.

He is extremely satisfied with Naruto's performance, the child has grown up very well, although Kushina was sullen when he moved out to live alone recently, and Shiyin and Qinyin were also very unhappy... ·However, when a child grows up, he must be independent after all, and Minato is very open about this.

"Also, all the invitations sent out before have been answered. Amanoin, Kusanagi, Takikino, and Otokino newly established in recent years will all participate in this Chunin exam."

"Not bad, the Chunin exams are going to be more lively. The sand ninjas have had some bad signs in the past two years. After the reform of the fog ninjas, they have also frequently radiated power to the mainland... This Chunin exam has to be weighed by them. Know your weight."

Minato played with a pair of goggles, the smile on his face completely receded, leaving only a sharp killing intent like a blade.
