Konoha's Balanced Ninja System

Yanyin Village, inside the village.

It was dark at night, and there were no people on the originally lively streets. There were only the occasional vigilant ninjas wandering around, or some scattered lights, which were some liquor shops that would be open until the early hours of the morning.

No matter which village you are in, there will be no shortage of wine shops, especially late at night. This is an indispensable place for those ninjas who have worked hard for a day, or even some ninjas who have just gone on a arduous mission.

When you get here, needless to say, anyone can get drunk and feel so free.

More or less, they gathered together in twos and threes, talking about the strange things they encountered while out on missions, or shouting loudly, talking eloquently.

In the midst of the noise, there was a figure sitting in the corner, wearing a bamboo hat, the brim of the hat was pushed down so low that people could not see his face clearly, the collar of his clothes was turned up, and there was a wine glass in front of him.

After finishing the last sip, the figure stood up and slowly walked out of the noisy wine shop.

He raised his head slightly and looked around, as if to confirm the direction. The moment he raised his head, his golden bangs were exposed.

"Hmph, I didn't expect that the old consultant Fujimura had already moved out of his original residence. But I think it's been a while since I left the village, so it's not that strange. Fortunately, I did some research first."

After saying something softly, the figure walked into the alley until it was completely hidden in the ground.

After a while, it appeared again in another alley, and then quickly disappeared again. This repeated, taking advantage of the night to move quickly in one direction.

Although there are vigilant ninjas in the village, and there are even many hidden sentries in some unknown locations, it is obviously not difficult for this person. His body skills are very sensitive, and with the Earth Dragon Hidden Technique, it is basically invisible. Extremely.

The other side of the village.

An arched rock is like a hill located in Iwagakure Village. It doesn't look big from a distance, but if you get closer, you will find that the rock is actually not small.

There are many clearly dug paths and tunnels around the rocks, as well as some breathable windows.

In the night, the faint lights shine through, making the entire rock stand out from the buildings in Iwagakure Village.

At the lowest level, there is a small, secret room inside. The door is slightly open at this time, revealing a faint light.

"Xiao Yi, do you really want to go on like this?"

An old and feeble voice came out, and it turned out to be an old man with white temples lying on the bed in the corner of the room.

The old man's health didn't seem to be very good. Even when he was lying down, his breath was not smooth and he was humming.

In the room, a few candlelights were lit, reflecting on the face of a young man.

The boy had long curly gray hair, gray pupils, and the same gray clothes under his drab coat. He was the boy Deidara had met before in the deserted Tsuchikage office.

"Of course, teacher."

The boy known as Xiao Yi responded calmly.

"Oh you"

It seemed that the boy's answer was already clear. The old man's pale face was helpless and he could only sigh sadly, "I shouldn't have delved into this at the beginning, let alone let you participate in it in the end."

"Teacher, it's better not to talk about this."

The young man raised his head and showed a gentle smile, "Now that I have done this, I will not regret it now or in the future."

The young man's voice was very soft, as if he was afraid of disturbing the old man, but the last sentence was very loud.

"Those who make deals with the devil will inevitably become the devil in the end. I am getting older and my body is getting weaker and weaker. I can already clearly feel that my time is running out."

The old man sighed, his breath weak, "Xiao Yi, you have to take care of yourself."

"Teacher, I have to do this, because this is not how it should be."

The young man's usually plain face revealed a rare sadness, and his voice lowered.

The old man didn't speak anymore, as if he really had no strength left.

The young man also began to remain silent, perhaps because he was afraid of disturbing the old man, or because he had nothing to say.

After being silent for a long time.

The young man suddenly raised his head and narrowed his eyes.

"Teacher, please rest peacefully first, I won't disturb you anymore."

After saying that, the young man stood up and walked quickly outside the house.

"What happened again?"

Although the boy's movement was not big, it still woke up the old man. Even though he was weak, he still struggled to ask, his voice was as weak as a mosquito.

"Teacher, please rest peacefully."

Seeing the old man's anxious look, the young man looked worried and immediately turned around to hold the old man in his arms and comforted him softly, "Don't worry, it's just that the person I'm waiting for has arrived."

"This is where old consultant Fujimura lives now."

A figure slowly appeared from the edge of the stone, wearing a bamboo hat on his head. He looked at the huge rock in front of him and was slightly stunned.

However, it only took a moment for the figure to flash out of the spot, flashing around the rocks, and did not stop until it reached the top.

"Could this be the Tsuchikage office after the move?"

Standing at the top, you can naturally see your feet more clearly.

This mountain rock is obviously man-made, and the walkways and windows everywhere further prove this idea.

"As I expected, you didn't leave."

The figure was looking around and thinking, but unexpectedly, a voice suddenly came from the side.

However, the figure was just stunned for a moment, then calmed down again, turned around, and looked to the side, and saw a figure slowly flying up from under the rock.

It didn't stop calmly until it landed in front of him.

"As expected, it's you again."

After seeing the person clearly, the figure spat out boredly.

Seeing that he had been exposed, the figure was too lazy to continue pretending. He raised his hand and took off the bamboo hat on his head and threw it aside.

But he was a young man with long blond hair, braided upwards on his head, and a wisp of blond bangs on his forehead, covering his entire left eye.

It's none other than Deidara

Apparently, after meeting an unknown boy during the day, Deidara just pretended to leave.

Because there were many strange places in the village, Deidara had to be even more confused.

In fact, according to Deidara's idea, after escaping into the village and delaying for a while, he should immediately return to meet Brother Scorpion.

It's not that Deidara himself kept his promise, but that his weak junior sister Kurotsuchi was still there, and Scorpion was a man of his word, saying two days would mean two days.

At the beginning, Deidara didn't think he would be delayed for long, because Iwagakure Village was too familiar to him.

What's more, there is also his teacher, the Third Generation Old Man. Although he is a rebel ninja, Deidara knows that the Third Generation Old Man will never want to put him to death. The most he can do is catch himself and then imprison him.

He has this confidence

However, he never thought that after successfully infiltrating, things would be far from being as simple as he thought. Instead, it would become more and more troublesome, because the teacher, a third-generation old man, still does not know where he is even now.

Also, there is this strange boy who appears again.
