Naruto's water escape is the strongest

In Hokage's office.

The master and apprentice sat quietly for a moment.

"So, are there any questions?" Tsunade said, spinning her pen.

"Yes, Master!" Sakura Haruno asked with a worried expression on her face, "Master, you have never suggested that I devote myself to practice in the past, but asked me to do tasks while practicing. Why this time..."

"That's right, immersing yourself in cultivation without testing the results of cultivation through combat is equivalent to working behind closed doors! What you cultivate in that way is usually far from the actual combat requirements. Moreover, combat itself is a very difficult task. With good training, every time you encounter Akatsuki's people, your strength will rise by a small step... That's why I put you into the ANBU before." Tsunade nodded and admitted.

"The situation is different now. Your next training will take a long time to produce results. This is one. Second, the current ANBU mission will not be of much significance to your training. Third, this may This is the last period of peaceful life. Let me leave it to you to practice as much as possible and try to improve your strength before the war..."

Tsunade's tone was a little heavy.

"Is the situation that serious, master?" Sakura frowned.

"It's much worse than expected. What I'm going to say next, you have to forget it after you leave this door, you know?" Tsunade looked at the disciple and nodded solemnly before continuing, "What you did before Those missions about Akatsuki, combined with the information we obtained from other channels, now confirm that Akatsuki has indeed entered a dormant state."

"However, this is only part of the truth. In the Country of Fire, the Country of Wind and the surrounding areas, Akatsuki has indeed suspended most of its activities and entered a hidden state; however, in other countries and regions, traces of Akatsuki are still heard from time to time. …”

"You should still remember that Akatsuki's plan was to capture the tailed beasts. Their previous actions were to collect intelligence by various means. So, why did they turn dormant in some areas and still be active in other areas? "

Haruno Sakura was shocked. She opened her mouth slightly to say something, but stopped talking.

"You have already thought of it." Tsunade noticed her expression.

Sakura took a deep breath and said slowly: "The active area means that they haven't found out the information about the tailed beasts or the Jinchuriki; on the contrary, on our side, they have found out that the Jinchuriki are Naruto and Gaara." It is very possible that we have obtained a lot of information about the two of them..."

"That's right. Moreover, the more areas they move into hibernation, it means that they are getting closer to the final plan..." Tsunade said seriously, "This organization has so many dangerous and powerful members. If they are allowed to obtain so many tailed beasts again, I'm afraid the consequences will be unimaginable... What's even more frightening is that we only know that they want to capture the tailed beasts, but we don't know what they want to use the tailed beasts for!"

"It's impossible to catch him and sneak around every day..." Sakura sneered, "So, how long is it before their final plan?"

"It's hard to say! All we can figure out is the situation in the Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Fire. The information from other countries may not be accurate. I wrote letters to the other three great ninja villages before, hoping to share Akatsuki's information. Unfortunately, No one responded! However, Onoki, the third generation Tsuchikage of Iwa Ninja Village, wrote back that there were signs of unknown persons conducting intelligence activities there before, but it has stopped now."

"The tailed beasts in Iwa Ninja Village are four-tailed and five-tailed, right?" Haruno Sakura asked calmly.

"Yes, it seems that at least four tailed beasts are being targeted by them. Cloud Ninja Village did not respond to us. Mist Ninja Village has always been mysterious and it is not clear. There is also a seven-tailed beast preserved in a small country. It should be Takino. Country..." Tsunade pulled out a scroll and said while flipping through it.

"The information in these areas is unclear. Some of the information is based on the scrolls brought back from the underground bounty you raided last time. There is no way to verify the credibility." Tsunade pursed her lips and continued, "But, Akatsuki is here These areas have been active for a long time, and judging from how active Akatsuki has become in the past year or two, they should be close to completion, which is why they are so excited!"

"They won't have a chance to finish...Naruto will never be caught by them!" Sakura said coldly.

"I will protect Naruto."

Haruno Sakura said decisively, clenching her fists.

Tsunade looked at Sakura steadily for a long time.

"Well...I believe you, Sakura."

The conversation ends here.

Haruno Sakura brought back her jounin registration form and new uniform.

Compared with the special jounin and chuunin vests, the style of jounin vests does not change much, only the colors are slightly different.

It was still green, but it was a light green that was closer to her eyes.

She loves it.

The new certificate says this:

Name: Haruno Sakura.Gender: Female.Level: Jonin.

……

Personal profile: My hobby is studying ninjutsu and exploring the world.What I like most is pure water and peaceful life.

There is a slight difference from the text on the special ID photo half a year ago.

People will gradually change.

The photo on her personal title page is a new photo she took yesterday.

The girl on the picture has semen

Beautiful facial features, childishness gradually fading away, and a pair of bright eyes.

Haruno Sakura put her chuunin, special superior and jounin ID photos together, and she could see the changes in herself over the past year and a half.

At first, she smiled quietly.

Later, when she grew up a little, she didn't smile, she just looked at the person outside the photo quietly.

But now, not only was she not smiling, but her eyes were a little sharp.She just stood quietly and was photographed by the photographer. She naturally had an awe-inspiring aura in the photo, and her aura was gradually coming out.

"What happened recently..." Haruno Sakura put away her chuunin and special landing slips and sighed.

She spread her hands.

Because she is used to running water on her body all the time, Sakura's hands are always clean and free of dust, white as jade, and slender. "A very beautiful pair of hands, just stained with a lot of blood." She said to herself.

In those previous missions, she killed many people.There may be dozens, maybe hundreds. When the photo was taken, the murderous aura had not faded away and was faithfully recorded by the camera.

The girl in the photo, whose childishness is gradually fading away, is not smiling.She pursed her lips and frowned slightly, with an astonishing coldness in her brows.

The world is becoming more and more cruel, and she can no longer laugh.

Konoha 61, September [-]nd.

Haruno Sakura was officially promoted to Jonin.

He was 13 and a half years old.

……

……

In name, it was "searching for clues about Akatsuki", but in fact it was a mission to "train" in the Land of Snow, which was given by Tsunade two days later.

During the past two days, Haruno Sakura spent almost all of her time socializing.Sasuke, Hinata, Ino, Shikamaru, Neji, Xiao Li, etc. all met her one after another to celebrate her promotion to Jonin.

So much so, that when Haruno Sakura left Konoha to carry out the so-called search for Akatsuki, she still smelled of alcohol.

It was hard to reject the warm hospitality. She drank a lot of wine, but luckily she wasn't drunk.

The wish to fight with Xiao Li came true inexplicably - Xiao Li drank some wine and then started to perform drunken fist on the spot.

Xiao Li didn't realize that the untrained drunken fist he used when he was confused was even better than his usual physical skills.I wonder what he will think after learning about this.He worked hard to improve himself, but in the end his hard fist was not as good as his natural drunken fist. I wonder how Xiao Li will react, whether he will laugh or cry.

In order to prevent Xiao Li from demolishing other people's shops, Haruno Sakura had to use ninjutsu on him - the same ninjutsu that was used to bind people when they were arrested in the Kingdom of Wind last time.

Xiao Li became extremely powerful after drinking alcohol, but he still couldn't resist the change in Sakura's form. The water snake formed was stronger and tougher, and was quickly tied up tightly by her, unable to move.

Thus, Haruno Sakura's first fight with Xiao Li ended with the girl's victory.

In the early morning of the third day, Haruno Sakura set out on the road to the Land of Snow.

This time, she still took the water route, but since she was the only one going there, there was no need to build an ice boat like last time.

Haruno Sakura jumped directly into the water.

The undercurrent surging under the sea surface formed a huge water dragon under her control, wrapping her in it.

She stood in the dragon's head, rode the water dragon, and wandered in the ocean at extremely fast speeds.

One day later, Haruno Sakura's figure appeared on the streets of Asakusa.

She didn't alert anyone, pretended to be an ordinary passerby, passed through the city, and went straight to the base she established in the Land of Snow.

Snow Ninja's former castle.

The magpie's nest has been occupied by Yingjiu, and it has become her secret base.

The Gothic-style Ice Castle shows no signs of melting due to the severe cold weather here, and has preserved its original appearance intact.

The effectiveness of Sasuke's genjutsu has faded a lot, but it still works.Judging from the traces outside, not even an animal has been near this place since she left.

She walked into the empty base. The interior of the Ice Castle was deep and empty. When a person walked in the corridor, the atmosphere was always a bit permeable.

"Let's get started..." She said calmly while taking out the supplies prepared from the scroll, her voice echoing endlessly in the empty hall.Several ice clones were summoned to help, and the crowd of people brought some popularity to the base.Although the so-called "people" are all her clones, they are still better than nothing.

After tidying up the place, Haruno Sakura finished dinner and rested in the company of her clone.She will stay here for more than four months and will not return to Konoha until February next year.

During this period, her training mission was to develop the third stage of Ying Chong and the second stage of the Yin Seal. Before that, she first had to complete the cloning technology...
