Anecdotes about the novice system

Chapter 199 Communication
Konoha, Hokage Building, Hokage Office.

"...These are what happened when I was collecting tailed beasts." Shiki looked at the stunned Third Hokage Hiruzaru Sarutobi, and said calmly.

The expression of the third Hokage reveals disbelief from the daze, and suspicion from the circle.

However, his rationality gave his suspicion another slap, and he dug out from his brain the previous report on the Sannin confrontation style, as well as the fight that almost slashed him.

"Your experience this time is really... wonderful!" The Third Hokage said with some difficulty, but sincerely.

"It's really exciting." Shiki nodded without denying it: "I'm very satisfied with this action."

"Really? That's good." The Third Hokage nodded, and then asked cautiously: "So, what are you going to do next?"

"I'm going to stay in Konoha for a while." Shiki replied.

"Ah!" After hearing Shiki's answer, Sandai Hokage's heart skipped a beat, his eyes widened, and he couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

Shiki looked at Sandai Hokage and asked suspiciously, "You don't want me to stay in the village?"

"Uh, no, the main thing is that your purpose has not been completed." Sandai Hokage said: "Hasn't Nanao not been caught yet? Uchiha Madara's remnants may also be planning something in secret. If you don't go find If so, wouldn’t Nanao suffer from being taken to an unknown place by them?”

"Moreover, based on my many years of work experience, doing things is all about working hard!" The Third Hokage preached with a serious face: "It's like climbing a mountain. If you stop to rest halfway through the climb, then you will reach the end of the mountain." The top of the mountain is gone!

As the saying goes, those who travel a hundred miles, half ninety.

Therefore, when there is only one last step left, you must not relax and persist until the end! "

After listening to the three generations of Hokage's teachings, Shiki nodded seriously: "What you said makes a lot of sense."

"Then..." Third Hokage's eyes lit up, and he looked expectantly.

"So, I decided," Shiki looked at the expectant Third Hokage, smiled slightly and said, "Let's rest for a while."

Sandai Hokage's face suddenly pulled down, he stared at Shiki resentfully, but Shiki didn't care about his eyes at all.

"Then, I'll go first." Shiki nodded with a smile, turned and left.

After Shiki's footsteps gradually moved away, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was sitting in the Hokage's seat, showed a wry smile.

"It's really difficult to deal with, two rituals." The third Hokage held several documents with their names smeared in his hand, and then he tore up the documents and threw them into the trash can.

…………

Shiki walked out of the Hokage Building. There was already a lot of people on the streets of Konoha, and the bustling scene had begun to appear.

Although the Second Ninja World War has not yet come to an end, the businessmen are always well informed.

They have fully confirmed that Konoha is the victor of this war. After all, Konoha's two ceremonies have caused a lot of trouble in every ninja village.

And the ninja village where she made a big fuss didn't make any noise, which made people in the ninja world think about it.

Naturally, Konoha finds popular recognition in this tumultuous range.

Therefore, the village began to prosper.

"It doesn't taste very good." Shiki said with some dissatisfaction after taking a bite of the balls he just bought.

[As a person who can live on drinking water and tomato sandwiches all the time, why do you still think that other people's food is unpalatable? 】

"The tomato sandwich is delicious." Shiki said seriously.

[I don't agree with you. 】

9527 yawned and replied casually.

"Shi-jun, long time no see."

A gloomy voice sounded from beside Shiki, Shiki turned his head to look, and Orochimaru was looking at Shiki with a smile.

"Oh, Orochimaru." Shiki nodded and replied, "I haven't seen you for a while."

"Then Shiki-kun, does your return mean that your goal has been achieved?" Orochimaru asked with a curious smile in his eyes.

Shi did not hide anything, shook his head lightly and said, "Not yet."

"Not yet?" Orochimaru's expression was obviously a little surprised.

"Really not," Shiki said, "Although Uchiha Madara was killed, Nanao was hidden by him."

Orochimaru's eyes widened in surprise: "Did you kill Uchiha Madara?"

After being surprised, Orochimaru put a smile on his face again: "It's really amazing, Shiki-kun."

"I also think I'm pretty good." Shiki generously admitted Orochimaru's compliment: "Uchiha Madara is indeed an opponent that should not be underestimated."

"Hahaha, Shiki-kun is really an interesting person." Orochimaru was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile.

"Hey, really?" Shiki was a little confused and didn't understand why Orochimaru said that.

[By the way, Orochimaru, you also like to dig holes, and the people who took Nanao away also like to dig holes. If you use your thinking, where are they most likely to go? 】

9527 looked at Orochimaru and suddenly thought of a good idea.

Heijue is a villain, and Orochimaru is also a villain.

And Orochimaru's IQ is not low, maybe he can think of something.

After Orochimaru heard 9527's words, he felt helpless. Why do I like digging holes?I pay attention to concealment, do you understand?You stupid cat knows a hammer!

Although the smile on Orochimaru's face was a little forced, he still started thinking seriously.

"I'm sorry, Shiki-kun." After thinking for a while, Orochimaru said: "There are too many places to hide, and I can't accurately judge where they are."

"It's okay, there's no need to apologize." Shi said, "Anyway, they will come out to make trouble sooner or later, and it will be fine to catch them when the time comes."

"Aren't you anxious at all?" Orochimaru looked at Shiki in surprise.

Shi shook his head: "No, because I'm not interested in them."

"Because they are too weak?" Orochimaru accurately judged Shiki's psychology.

He didn't hide his style, he nodded generously and admitted: "There is such a reason."

"Then they should really be lucky." Orochimaru said with a smile: "By the way, Shiki-kun, if I were the group who took Nanao away, I would most likely be hiding in the Land of Fire right now."

"The Land of Fire? Why?" Shiki looked at Orochimaru in surprise: "Does anyone really believe that the most dangerous place is the safest?"

"After all, it is underground, so the concealment is very high." Orochimaru replied with a smile: "Besides, things like darkness under the lights have always existed?"

"Of course, I'm just guessing." Orochimaru added: "They may not necessarily be in the Land of Fire."

"It doesn't matter." Shiki replied, "I don't have any targets anyway, so I'll start looking for them from the Land of Fire."

Orochimaru smiled and nodded: "Then, I wish Mr. Shi all the best."
