Naruto Shadow Mage

 Six days later.

 At noon, the Nara clan.

 For six days, Orochimaru's defection continued to ferment, causing panic in the entire Konoha Village.

The defection of the three ninjas can be big or small. Unfortunately, the Third Hokage is destined to need Orochimaru to take the "blame", so the incident of Orochimaru's defection was made public. Not only did it discredit all of Orochimaru's achievements, but it also portrayed Orochimaru as a A typical villain. Especially when countless ANBU of Konoha Village disclosed the list of Orochimaru's human experiments, countless families in Konoha Village suppressed their anger and silently began to place bounties on Orochimaru's head, hoping to give them an explanation.

 On the contrary, the Third Hokage did not continue to pay attention to Orochimaru's defection.

 After having a silent battle with Cross Country and Danzo Shimura, the Third Hokage began to deal with matters concerning the Cloud Ninja Village again.

　　It's just that this time the Third Hokage is different from the past. When faced with the strength of Raikage, the Third Hokage becomes even stronger. With no other option, the Raikage of Cloud Ninja Village could only threaten, because even if Orochimaru successfully defected from Konoha Village, considering the strength of Cloud Ninja Village, Raikage still had no confidence that he could be on the battlefield. Defeat the ninja troops of Konoha Village.

 So on this day six days later, the envoy sent by Raikage once again entered the territory of Konoha Village.

  If no accidents happen, the end of the three wars will be successful when the Yunnin Village delegation arrives at Konoha Village.

But the cross-country among the Nara clan, who was accompanying Gaara, Uzumaki Naruto, and Shikamaru, quietly went to the secret room in Shikaku's room while the three brats were taking a nap.

There, except for Shikaku from the Nara clan, the people who were going to be interviewed by Yuchiko were Choza from the Akimichi clan and Haiichi from the Yamazaka clan.

“Uncle Lujiu, Uncle Haiyi, and Uncle Dingzuo, I’m sorry for keeping you waiting.”

 “Nothing, it’s off-road, sit down quickly!”

 “Yes, Uncle Shikaku.”

Sitting quietly in front of Shikaku, there was no need to beat around the bush with these relatives who were like relatives. He said bluntly: "Uncle Shikaku, Uncle Haiyi, and Uncle Dingzao, I know what you are going to talk to me about. . But I have decided that today I will take Gaara and Naruto to leave Konoha Village and travel in the ninja world. If nothing unexpected happens, this trip may last for a long time. When Gaara, Naruto. When people can control the power inside their bodies, they may be able to return to their villages separately, but I."

 “It’s destined not to come back!”

"Why?"

Listening to Cross Country's story, he was not as powerful as Shikaku in terms of tactics. Haiyi's strong Ding Zao asked: "Xiao Cross Country, the village is in chaos for the time being. It's good for you to go out and take shelter. But there is no need for you to say that you can't return to the village in the future. Right? This is your home. If you don't come back, where can you go? Although the war is over, the ninja world is still very chaotic. If possible, I hope you can return the one-tail jinchuriki who returned to Suna Ninja Village. Village, what do you think?"

 “It’s impossible, Dingzuo.”

As soon as Dingzao finished speaking, Haiyi next to him sighed deeply and said: "I feel that it is wise not to come back to the cross-country. If I were not the clan leader, I would like to follow the cross-country to travel in the ninja world, and I am not prepared to return to this right and wrong. "

“I left off-road for Shikaku, and even more for us!”

What Hai Yi said made Lu Jiu and Ding Zuo silent at the same time.

 After a long silence, Shikaku asked to the cross-country road: "Aren't you going to take Shikamaru with you?"

"Shikamaru may be the next leader of the Nara clan. Uncle Shikaku, do you think it would be good for him to follow me?"

Cross Country smiled and said: "Maybe it's because I traveled in the Ninja world when I was too young and saw too much of the dark side of the Ninja world, that's why I became who I am today. Uncle Shikaku, I feel that the next leader of the Nara clan will temporarily It’s better to stay on the bright side of the ninja world. This is not only for Shikamaru, but also for the future of the Nara clan.”

“Uncle Shikaku, if you are willing, I hope you will expel me from the Nara clan.”

 “After all, I am a disaster, there is no point in keeping me!”

"That's impossible!"

Shaking his head, Shikaku also sighed deeply and said: "Now that it's decided, let's go back and clean up the cross-country! When traveling in the ninja world, you must not make yourself miserable!"

 “I got it, Uncle Shikaku!”

Off-road replied with a smile, then faced Ding Zuo and said to Hai: "Then I'll leave first, uncle Haiyi and uncle Ding Zuo."

 “Off-road, I hope you can come back!”

 “Off-road, pay attention to safety!”

Hai Yi couldn't bear it after finishing his journey in Dingzuo with just a few words.

 But there is no other way, many things in the ninja world are so complicated. Cross-country wanting to leave cannot be said to be an escape, it can only be said that he does not want to cause trouble for others.

What's more, no one knows what happened before he prepared to travel to the ninja world.

That is something that makes Cross Country have to leave Konoha Village, and it is also something that Cross Country must go to complete.

 One day ago, Cross Country suddenly received a letter from the Fourth Hokage.

 In the letter, Cross Country knew a lot of things, and even more so that the Fourth Hokage had mastered the method of resurrecting Kushina Uzumaki!

Kushina Uzumaki is the master of Cross Country, and she taught Cross Country many things before her death. How could Cross Country not contribute to the resurrection of Kushina Uzumaki?

 Furthermore, knowing that the Fourth Hokage really joined the organization founded by Yahiko, the organization called "Twilight", Cross Country was very shocked. Wanting to know what the purpose of the organization "Twilight" is, what kind of members it has absorbed, and the matter of resurrecting Kushina Uzumaki, Cross Country feels that he must leave Konoha Village.

 So, taking Naruto Uzumaki and Gaara with them, they left Konoha Village and embarked on a journey to travel the ninja world without spending too long in the Nara clan.

But what Cross Country never expected was that not long after he left Konoha Village, while traveling through the ninja world, he actually met an acquaintance.

That acquaintance can be said to be Off-Road’s enemy, the one who wanted to kill Off-Road in the first place.

 But when he met that acquaintance this time, he found that the other person's eyes were dull, as if he had lost his goal in life.

That person is Orochimaru’s companion!

Jiraiya, who is also one of the three ninjas!

 “Huh? Jiraiya!”

"He looks like this now. He must have felt sad after fighting Orochimaru because he couldn't bring Orochimaru back and redeem his former companions, right?"

“But, who are the guys following Jiraiya?”

 “Are you planning to assassinate Jiraiya? Or...”

 “Where are the people sent by an organization?”
