Konoha's Destiny Twins

After deciding on the departure time, Qingshui took the rare opportunity to pause his practice for the day.This is a long and far journey, so it’s always a good idea to be more prepared.

But Qing Shui thought about it for a long time and found that he no longer needed to carry any ninja tools because of the Steel Release. Apart from preparing water and dry food, as well as some lightweight military food pills, silver coins and detonating charms, he had nothing to bring.

As for a coat to keep out the cold, just buy it locally.

As for Kei, the little girl's parents are senior ninjas in Konoha, so they will naturally remind her of the difficulties she will face on this long-term mission, and if it really doesn't work, there would be someone like him who has neglected his duty... oh, it's a cheap teacher.

When Qingshui prepared everything, the scorching sun was still in the sky.

Then take this opportunity to visit Mr. Gu Jie’s house. Speaking of which, he hasn’t seen the elder for a long time.

But just as he arrived at the door of the mansion, a kind voice came from inside: "Is it Qingshui? Come in."

"it is good."

This ancient house is empty, because only Teacher Gu Jie lives there all year round, so it looks extremely deserted.

"Hahaha, Gu Jie, I won."

As soon as Qingshui walked through the door, he saw Mr. Kosuke and the Sandaime Hokage playing chess in the courtyard.

"It turns out that your move just now was a false move." Gu Jie suddenly realized, and immediately called Qingshui, "Come on, Qingshui, sit down together."

"it is good."

The Sandaime Hokage took the initiative to explain: "I'm retired. I happened to have no plans to practice today, so I asked Kosuke to play chess with me."

Because the original Kosuke had the strength of an elite jounin, he would be sent out to perform tasks even when the village was in serious financial crisis. With the signing of treaties among the four major ninja villages, Konoha's economy was obviously relieved. This allows Orochimaru to relieve the pressure of most Konoha ninjas from performing high-intensity missions.

"Can Qingshui play chess?" Gusuke asked.

Shimizu shook his head.

"That's right, I've never seen you doing anything like this." Gusuke sighed, "A pure ninja."

“It is precisely because I have devoted myself to this path that I have achieved what I have achieved today.”

"I heard from Sarutobi that you have defeated the Yondaime Raikage and the Eight-Tailed Jinchuuriki."

Speaking of this, Gu Jie was a little embarrassed.

Such a great achievement, not even his teacher, the Second Hokage, has ever achieved.

It's really blue out of blue and better than blue.

"No, it was a trick on my part."

"Hey, I've seen the photos of that battlefield." Kosuke stopped Shimizu from being modest, "I'm afraid you are the only one in Konoha who has that kind of strength."

Qing Shui wanted to explain that he was really not humble.

But looking at the eyes of the two old people in front of me...

"I just feel like I can do better."

"Hehehe, I am indeed very confident in my own strength." Gu Jie patted Qingshui on the shoulder and smiled.

"Water for tea?" asked the Sandaime Hokage.

"Do not."

"When I was young, like Qing Shui, I was not interested in anything else. I only focused on training and fighting." The Sandaime Hokage seemed to be lost in memories, "After I became Hokage, it seems that the aggressiveness I once had slowed down. Falling slowly."

“As I get older, I start to like some weird things.”

Qing Shui understands that he is peeping crazily in Konoha with a crystal ball.

Speaking of which, Jiraiya also has this hobby...

Is this the fate of middle-aged men? !

Subconsciously, Qing Shui's whole body trembled.

The Sandaime Hokage lamented: "Today's young people... Kosuke, you taught an incredible student."

"How can I teach you this?" Kosuke waved his hand and said, "And Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas, has become the Hokage. You are really amazing."

For a time, the two old men actually started to support each other in business.

"Come on, let's play chess."

The chessboard was rearranged again and a new battle began.

Seeing the two old men concentrating on each other without any distractions, Qing Shui was speechless and watched the chess game quietly.

From time to time during the process, the two of them tried to mislead each other, but unfortunately, they were both seen through by the other party.

Looking at this quiet courtyard, Qingshui suddenly felt that maybe one day in the future, his ninja life after retirement would be like this.

Although he did not ask about Teacher Gusuke's current health, the other party's good spirit was already the best answer; similarly, Teacher Gusuke did not ask Shimizu too much about ninja matters. It seemed that after retirement, the other party I have really returned to the life of an ordinary old man.

When the sun sets and evening falls, the chess game finally ends.

"It's actually a draw." Gu Jie looked at the score they recorded, and it turned out to be the same score by coincidence.

The Sandaime Hokage also did not expect that after fighting for a day, the result would be back to the starting point: "Then we can only decide the winner next time."

Just when everyone was about to leave the small courtyard, Gu Jie suddenly asked: "Is Qing Shui going on a long trip?"

"Yes."

"Take care along the way then."

"Teacher, please also pay attention to your health."

Looking at Qing Shui's leaving back, the Sandaime Hokage glanced at Kosuke again and said, "Are you worried that something might happen to him?"

"Am I worried?" Gu Jie shook his head, "It's his enemies who should be worried."

"I'm just feeling a little emotional. The brat back then has now grown into a towering tree in Konoha."

"We're really old."

The Sandaime Hokage also smiled: "I have already felt about this."

"It's their time as young people now."

As for the Sandaime Hokage's point of view, Qingshui has already had this idea in his mind.

It's just that not long after he left Mr. Gu Jie's house, he was intercepted by a young man who was halfway out.

"teacher."

"It's Zhishui."

Unexpectedly, Shisui would wait for him near Mr. Kosuke's house.

Looking at the confused eyes of the young man, is it the whip that needs growing up?

"Teacher, are you planning to go on a long trip?"

"You can see that."

"The teacher was too obvious."

Qing Shui was stunned, what did he do?

He obviously didn't say anything.

"Teacher always pays a visit to Fousuke-senpai before he goes on a long journey."

Really, Qing Shui really didn't pay attention to this habit.

But then he got to the main topic of whipping: "Have you mastered all those one-hand seals?"

"Ah."

It seems that the simplification of these techniques is not that difficult for Shisui.

Since it’s not a problem in cultivation, could it be a problem in life?relationship issue?

"Teacher...my eyesight has declined a lot recently."

Qing Shui suddenly understood.

It turns out that Shisui used the Mangekyou Sharingan in the two recent operations against Kirigakure.

Once, he used his left eye to completely control Kirigakure's then-commander Kito Soratsu with his left eye. Another time, he used his right eye to release a large-scale mental illusion called "Betsutenjin's Light" and wiped out a considerable number of people in Kirigakure Village in an instant. A ninja who opposed the Yondaime Mizukage Yagura.

This technique can release a wide range of golden light through Shisui's right eye, pulling the enemy's spirit into the illusion space, and then instantly turning his spirit to ashes.

In that illusion space, Shisui is the supreme existence, and no power can compete with him.

Compared to Tsukuyomi, which needs to stare at each other and can only severely damage a single enemy, Betsugami Light, which can be used on a large scale and destroy enemies, is simply the ultimate version of Tsukuyomi.

But while exerting these two extreme powers, the price brought is also huge.

Shisui's vision has declined significantly recently, which is a huge side effect of Obito's divine power.

"Unless it's a life and death crisis, otherwise, even if the mission fails, don't use the kaleidoscope again." Qing Shui solemnly instructed.

It's not that the other gods are useless now, on the contrary, if possible, he even wants to let Shisui use the other gods to control the scorpion again immediately, so that the other party can spit out the secret of the subconscious sand manipulation technique.

But now, he had to specifically tell Shisui not to use this technique during his next trip to Sunagakure.

"teacher!"

"Protect your eyes. At present, I have no way to cure them."

Zhisui was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Isn't the Eternal Kaleidoscope also good?"
