Escape From Konoha

Inside the courtyard.

"Even if you want to become stronger, it's really rare for you to look like this."

Shikamaru, who was practicing the family's secret art of escapism in the courtyard, suddenly heard such a sentence from his ear.

He put down his seal palm, turned his head to look at the person who came, it was his father Lu Jiu.

"A veteran of the three dynasties, are you so leisurely?"

Shikamaru pursed his lips, as if he felt that it would be embarrassing to be seen practicing hard.

After all, his past performance really doesn't match words like hard work.

"Elder of the Three Dynasties..."

The corner of Lu Jiu's mouth twitched violently at his son's complaints.

This generalization is actually not wrong. He has gone through three, four, and five Hokages, and he also held important positions as the squad leader of the Jonin during their ruling period. He can indeed be called the "senator of the three dynasties".

In just twelve years, so many things have happened to Konoha, and the Naruto staff has been changed several times, which really makes him, the Jnin squad leader, very unhappy.

"How about the job at New Hokage? I heard that he is a difficult person to get along with."

Especially about women, Shikamaru suddenly had a bad association. Because women are equal to tigress in his mind.

"This kind of thing has nothing to do with you as a ninja. You should consider the Chunin exam next year."

Shikajiu doesn't plan to talk more with Shikamaru in this regard.

The content of his work is extremely confidential. He can still be sure about what can be said and what can't be said.

There are some things that even family members cannot disclose.

"Yeah?"

Shikamaru raised an eyebrow, but didn't pay much attention.

"So, regarding Sasuke, and Kakashi's old...Hatake Kakashi, has the upper management already started to prepare for it?"

After a pause, Shikamaru turned to other topics.

Shikajiu glanced at Shikamaru and asked, "Are you asking for Naruto?"

"No, no matter how you say it, it's also a companion from the past, so it doesn't matter if I care about it."

"It's really stubborn." Shikamaru's careful thinking can be seen at a glance, and Shikaku didn't blame him, so he said to Shikamaru: "Forget it, it's okay to tell you. Generally speaking, such a dangerous treachery, In principle, it must be resolved as soon as possible. Because they are not only powerful, but if they are left alone for a long time, it may lead to a decline in the credibility of the village. On the other hand, because they have too much confidential information about the village, in order to prevent these secrets from Leakage may endanger the safety of the village, and this part of the risk must be prevented and controlled."

"But the key is that the village probably doesn't have so much spare capacity now."

Shikamaru hit the nail on the head of the village's current sore spot.

Originally because of the change of Hokage, Konoha has become mentally exhausted now, and the internal factions have not yet stabilized under the harmony of the new Hokage... If it is dealing with general rebellion, it is naturally unnecessary. Sending a hunting force at will is enough. But this time the goal is different, and the task entrustment system also needs to be restored. In fact, there are very few ninjas who can be freely mobilized.

"It's basically like this. Although the wanted documents for betrayal and ninja have been released, it is an indisputable fact that the village has no power to pursue them now."

In fact, in Lu Jiu's view, there are two more important reasons, that is, the shuffling of Anbu and the game between the top management are still going on in secret. After all, with Konoha's size, it is still possible to squeeze together a large-scale pursuit force. However, the changes in the Anbu and the high-level made this kind of matter have to be put on hold, and the patrol troops were temporarily dispatched to show Konoha's attitude.

If Konoha wants to completely restore turnover, at least it will have to wait until February next year. The situation is going well, maybe it can be a little earlier, but in that case, my vacation will be gone.

Thinking of this kind of thing, Lu Jiu couldn't help but imagine the pain of working overtime.

Even if he is a ninja, when he thinks of working overtime now, he can't help but feel bitter in his heart.

"Okay, you should practice hard, and by the way, I will also supervise Ino and Choji. In a short time, there may not be much time for you to enjoy this security."

After saying these words, without waiting for Shikamaru's inquiry, Shikaku quickly left here.

He was silently calculating other things in his mind.

That is, headed by the daimyo of the country of fire, the plan of uniting the daimyos of other countries to sanction the kingdom of ghosts is moving forward.

Although there was a short-term stagnation in this plan due to the change of Naruto, after Tsunade returned, the plan moved forward again.

As the Jonin squad leader, he has the same right to know about this plan as the top management. I was also fortunate enough to follow the Three Generations of Hokage to the Daming Mansion to participate in this decision-making, and part of the planning was provided by him.

But now that the third Hokage unfortunately died halfway, then, as the successor, Tsunade, out of emotion and reason, must inherit the will of the third Hokage and carry out this plan to the end.

Although Lu Jiu believes that there are many uncertain risks in promoting this plan, but with the support of several big names and half of the five shadows, then this plan is not up to him to consider whether it should be carried out, but must be carried out. And implement it as soon as possible.

Lu Jiu sighed in his heart, a gloomy look flashed in his eyes.

war…

◎

Opening the door of Hokage's office, Lu Jiu saw a mountain of papers on the table at first sight.

In the corner of the office, there are also piles of papers piled up in bundles. Obviously, this is not finished.

Lu Jiu sighed with emotion as Tsunade's hard work as the new Hokage, thinking about it this way, he would not feel pain when working overtime.

Even Hokage took the lead in working so hard, as a subordinate, how could he stagnate?

Thinking of this, Shikajiu walked quickly to the desk, and saw Tsunade lying on the desk, drooling from the corner of his mouth, falling asleep sweetly.

"..."

It could be a dream.

After all, Konoha is so busy up and down, how could Hokage be lazy at such a time?

This must be an illusion, an illusion.

Just when Lu Jiu thought so, Tsunade seemed to hear the movement next to him, opened his eyes from his sleep, and asked in a daze.

"Why, Jing Yin, have you bought the pork chop rice?"

"No, it's me, Hokage-sama."

The corner of Lu Jiu's mouth twitched.

What is pork chop rice? It shouldn't be lunch time now, there are at least two hours before the meal time.

"Uh, it's Lu Jiu. Sorry, I made you laugh."

Tsunade noticed that it was Shikahisa who came, and he was not at all embarrassed. He calmly picked up a tissue and wiped the indecent-looking saliva from the corner of his mouth.

Then, she said seriously:

"Let me explain first, I was definitely not slacking off and sleeping just now, I was just thinking deeply about the development planning of some villages. Don't get me wrong."

Let's get rid of the drool tissue first, Hokage-sama. Lu Jiu sighed in his heart.

"Since you're tired, it's better for Hokage-sama to go home and have a rest."

Considering that Tsunade has been working intensively since he came back, it is not incomprehensible to find time for himself to be lazy for a while. After all, it is also the responsibility of subordinates to care about the health of their superiors.

"Don't worry, I'm full of energy now!"

Tsunade said that he was fine and could continue to work, posing as a hard-working boss who worked hard.

"..."

This kind of remark sounds even more guilty.

He suspected that as soon as he left here, the other party would directly sleep on the table again.

"these are…"

Lu Jiu saw the stack of papers on the table in front of Tsunade, and his expression changed.

"Ah, these are the personnel information of the medical department."

Although Tsunade can handle government affairs with ease, what she is best at is matters related to the medical department. After all, this is her old business, and it is indeed more convenient to manage it than to deal with other things.

"Are you planning to reorganize like Anbe?"

Lu Jiu thought about it.

"That's unnecessary. Although there are some problems in the medical department, as long as the senior cadres of the department have no problems, everything is within the controllable range. Unlike Anbu, who is infiltrated from top to bottom It's become a sieve."

Tsunade said so.

"You can't say that. None of us knew that Kakashi would be a spy on Orochimaru's side. Maybe Kakashi was from Orochimaru before Minato. I think the senior management of the medical department is also a Should look into it and maybe catch some big fish out of it."

Lu Jiu pondered for a while, then suggested to Tsunade.

Hearing these words, Tsunade couldn't help narrowing his eyes, and began to think seriously.

Although she took over Hokage's affairs, from the beginning, she used her strong style to temporarily deter the two consultants, but in the end, it was only for her own convenience. But in terms of the details of the village, she still didn't take good care of some places.

And Lu Jiu can make up for her shortcomings. As the squad leader of Jonin, he knows all aspects of Konoha better than himself.

"Yes, but it needs to be done in secret. But since we want to investigate to the end, we should secretly dispatch people from the Hyuga and Yamanaka clans to cooperate with Anbu's operations."

Tsunade didn't hesitate, and quickly finalized the matter.

"Okay, I will go to Hinata and Yamanaka later."

Lu Jiu nodded, taking this matter on himself.

"Also, about this little girl..."

Tsunade pulled out a piece of paper from the document in front of him.

"Haruno Sakura?"

Lu Jiu saw the photo on the paper, it was Haruno Sakura, the medical ninja from Class 7.

As a new generation of medical ninja, Haruno Sakura has a good reputation in the medical department. Coupled with the medical talisman incident, Lu Jiu also fell in love with this twelve-year-old girl.

"Yes."

Tsunade glanced at it, and the opponent's identity information, ability information, and ninja resume were all at a glance.

"Master Hokage means..."

"Check to see if she has been disturbed by Kakashi. In addition, her medical talisman research is very interesting. Remember to get some experimental items later."

"yes."

Although he didn't know why Tsunade made such a decision, Lu Jiu still nodded seriously and agreed.

"You are wrong, start again!"

Somewhere in the back of Mount Miaomu, there is a pond formed by a waterfall, and there are various stone toads of different sizes beside it.

Immortal Fukasaku sat on the head of a stone toad, holding a black stick in his hand. I don't know how many times he corrected Naruto's mistakes in cultivating natural energy. However, seeing Naruto's brows wrinkled after seeing that Naruto still couldn't get in after so long.

"But, I can't feel the 'natural energy' you mentioned, Grandpa Immortal. After all, is there really such a thing as natural energy?"

Naruto began to doubt the reality of the existence of natural energy in this world.

In the past, when he practiced ninjutsu, although he would encounter various problems, but after a few days, he still didn't gain anything at all. This was the first time he encountered such a situation.

"Yes, it's just that the natural energy hidden in the earth and the air is more difficult for us to discover and use. Even for the little Zilaiye back then, it took several years to get started."

"Several years!? Getting started!?"

When Naruto heard this, he immediately opened his mouth wide, looking extremely surprised.

"Well, although there are reasons for his own laziness, lack of perseverance, and giving up halfway, natural energy is indeed not such an easy power to grasp. Even in Miaomu Mountain, which has accumulated rich natural energy, a considerable part of the toads in it cannot sense it. Natural energy, not to mention the more difficult fairy art later on."

Fukasaku Sento jumped off the stone toad and said to Naruto.

"What about me? Immortal Grandpa, how long do you think it will take me to get started?"

Naruto asked, pointing at himself.

"Hmm... It's a little hard to say. In terms of chakras, you have indeed met the basic requirements for cultivating immortal arts, but your basic ability seems to be a bit weak, even worse than that of Xiao Zilai..."

Immortal Fukasaku looked at Naruto carefully and said.

"Isn't it? Am I worse than a lecherous fairy?"

"It's hard to say. When Xiao Zilai was practicing fairy arts, he was different from you. His chakra control ability was already very good. With a good chakra, he sensed natural energy very early, but he couldn't control it freely. That's all. So his later immortal skills are only at a half-baked level, and he needs me and the child's mother to maintain it before he can enter the perfect immortal mode."

"It turns out that the lecherous fairy has not fully mastered it. If I master this, will I be better than the lecherous fairy?"

Naruto began to wonder.

He knows how powerful Jiraiya is. If he surpasses the opponent, maybe it will be his turn to become the next generation of Hokage.

"Don't think about these good things. Even Xiao Zilai can't enter the perfect fairy mode by himself, but as far as humans are concerned, he can be regarded as a very remarkable ninja. Ninety-nine percent of humans who come to Miaomu Mountain to seek fairy arts are stuck in the Below the entry level. There are only a handful of human beings who can enter the fairy mode on their own for thousands of years. And the fate of the losers has become these stone toads."

Fukasaku Sento pointed to the big and small stones and toads around him, and warned Naruto not to be careless in this regard, otherwise the end would be miserable.

Sure enough, upon hearing Fukasaku Sensei's words, Naruto swallowed in fear.

At this moment, the two heard footsteps approaching, turned their heads to look, and saw Zilai walking over.

"How is it, Boss Fukasaku, how about Naruto's natural energy cultivation?"

Ji Lai also asked as soon as he came over.

Immortal Fukasaku glanced at the unwilling Naruto, and said without concealing: "Not at all, the little Naruto can't sense the existence of natural energy. After so many days, I still can't do anything. According to my opinion, I should wait for a while, maybe it will work." .”

"Does it need to be so troublesome? Can't you use toad oil to assist your cultivation?"

Zilai also frowned and asked.

Sensei Fukasaku hesitated.

"Toad oil can indeed play an auxiliary role, but the degree to which that thing can sense and absorb natural energy is judged by the basic ability of the person concerned... If the control ability is too poor, it may immediately turn into a stone toad."

In other words, in the eyes of Immortal Fukasaku, it is too dangerous for Naruto to use toad oil to assist his cultivation.

"After all, you have to try it to know. And isn't there you Fukasaku Boss? Naruto is the son of the prophecy predicted by the big toad sage. This level can definitely be overcome."

Jiraiya also has sufficient confidence in Naruto.

"...Okay. But let me say first, if you fail, you will temporarily give up the practice of immortality and start from the foundation of chakra control."

Immortal Fukasaku also felt that Naruto, since he was the son of prophecy in the mouth of Immortal Toad, might really be able to perform miracles.

So it jumped to the side of the pond, reached into the pond, and let its palms be covered with toad oil in the pond.

"Naruto, take off your shirt."

Zilai also ordered.

Although Naruto was puzzled, he did so and took off his shirt, revealing a strong figure.

Then, Fukasaku Immortal, who had his hands covered in toad oil, jumped behind Naruto, and spread the toad oil on Naruto's back.

For a moment, Naruto felt a little bit of coldness, something uncontrollably drilled into his body from the outside world.

"Well…"

Naruto found that his body became extremely stiff, as if he had lost control, showing surprise.

"not good!"

Seeing that Naruto's head began to swell, and his body began to show signs of petrification, Immortal Fukasaku immediately took out the black stick in his hand, aimed at Naruto's back, and struck quickly.

"ah!"

Naruto screamed in pain, as if his back had been severed by Fukasaku Immortal with a black stick, and he was breathing cold air to reduce the pain.

With this blow, the uncontrollable natural energy in his body was also knocked out of his body by the black stick, restoring Naruto to his original state.

"Can't you?"

Looking at Naruto who kept breathing, Jiraiya also sighed.

Immortal Fukasaku said helplessly: "You have also seen the situation. Toad oil has advantages and disadvantages, but it is definitely not suitable for Naruto at this stage. Ziraiya, you'd better get his foundation done first. If he doesn't even Chakra is not even well controlled, so it is impossible to control natural energy and fuse it with fairy chakra."

Immortal art is not that simple. Even in Miaomu Mountain, there are only a very small number of elites who can master the fairy art.

Sensing natural energy, controlling natural energy, and then manipulating and merging with chakra, although the steps are simple, but most people can skillfully control natural energy, it is a remarkable existence.

If you want to go to the third stage and fuse your own fairy chakra, it is not a power that can be popularized casually.

"It seems that's the only way to go, but don't worry, Boss Fukasaku, I will let him control his balance as soon as possible."

I also felt that I was too hasty.

If you want to become fat with one bite, you will definitely kill Naruto to death.

The road to becoming stronger still needs to be done step by step.

"Well, I'll trouble you then. In addition, go to the workshop and get a few Immortal Talismans and use them for Naruto. It can promote his growth faster, and even help him use immortal arts in the future."

Sensei Fukasaku thought of something.

"Is that thing ready?"

Zilai also got excited.

"It's about the same. Although it can't be mass-produced, it is still possible to make a hundred and eighty copies."

"Great, this is tantamount to abolishing one of the enemy's generals! Then I won't stay here any longer, Naruto, pack up and salute, let's return to Konoha as soon as possible!"

Jiraiya was excited and urged Naruto to act quickly.

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Naruto to respond, he hurriedly ran towards Mt. Miaogi's workshop.

◎

Misty Village.

Water Office.

"This is a letter from the Kingdom of Ghosts."

Terumi Mei came to Yakura with a letter and said to him.

Yagura put down what he was doing, quickly took the letter, opened it and glanced at it, the expression on his face softened a little.

"How's the situation, Mizukage-sama?"

Terumi Mei didn't know what was written on it, but judging by Yagura's expression, something good should have happened.

"The Kingdom of Ghosts has successfully contacted Longdi Cave."

"So, is Miaomushan's threat lifted?"

Terumi Mei asked.

"It's true for the time being, but we need to play a game to know how it is. However, Longdi Cave and Mt. It shouldn't be a problem for Longdi Cave to capture Mt. Miaomu."

Yagura tapped the table with his fingers to express his opinion.

Even without the assistance of Ryuji Cave, he felt that it would not be a problem to take down Mt. Miaomu with the military power of the Demon Kingdom, but it would be very difficult to operate in that way, and it would be disturbed by various accidental factors. lead to some deviation in the results.

"Next, you follow me to the Daming Mansion and meet with the Daming. Regarding the matter of going to the Fire Nation Council after the next year, we need to make some preparations as soon as possible."

Soon, Yagura also made this decision.

"So fast?"

Terumi Mei was taken aback.

"Well, maybe the war will come sooner than we imagined. It was originally planned for Akatsuki and the other big countries to use the tailed beast as a flashpoint to weaken the strength of both sides, and then swallow them all at once... But now, the land of fire, the wind The daimyos of the two countries, even our daimyo, seem to have other thoughts."

Although Yakura knew that the practice of Oni no Kuni would attract the attention of these daimyos sooner or later, he did not expect that these daimyos would unite so quickly. The ability to perceive the crisis is sharper than imagined.

And according to the information revealed by the daimyo of the country of water, it seems that the country of the earth also intends to join the alliance and jointly sanction the idea of ​​​​the country of ghosts~www.readwn.com~ Of the first five major countries, only Lei Zhi is left The Guo family, whose position has not yet been firmly established, has other plans.

"If this is the case, then the next actions need to be more careful."

Terumi Mei thought for a moment and answered.

"Actually, there is no need to worry too much. This kind of alliance only seems to be full of gimmicks, but in real operation, it is not so easy to run in because of internal trust issues. All countries have their own interests. Konoha and Sand Yin are probably the only ones who contributed on the battlefield."

Compared to Terumi Mei's caution, Yakura's attitude is a little more optimistic.

I don't care about Sand Yin, who is still recovering, but Konoha...maybe those high-level people will burst out some big melons that will stun everyone.

Konoha's most powerful enemy is not outside, but inside. If this problem is not resolved for a day, there will always be huge hidden dangers. This is true for himself and the allies.
