Ninja Ice House

In the first ten days of February, the inland Muye Village is already relatively warm.

This year's ninja school entrance ceremony, there are obviously more children participating in the selection than in previous years.In addition to the children sent by the Gushan family who were appointed to go through the motions, there are also many people from outside the village who come here because of their reputation.

Not all civilians are uninformed and do not realize the role of education in the future of their children.

Some families are really difficult, and they want to try their luck. Some families are not bad, have more than enough food and clothing, and lack the necessary skills and contacts across the ceiling of the class. Muye Village Ninja School is a good platform.

The Inaba Academy on the far east coast is also an opportunity, but its reputation is too small. It has been established for a short time, with perfect hardware facilities, but a serious shortage of teachers, and it is far from being recognized.

"It will be great when the school I run has this kind of popularity. It is too difficult to ask grandpa to tell grandma to let illiterate parents send their children to school. There are only real things like food and money. The benefits open their eyes."

Standing in the crowd with his arms folded and his face sinking like water, Gu Shan Bu Shui couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he saw the children sweating profusely and the parents who were watching and waiting for the results.

It has been nearly ten days since his father, Gushan Masaki, came to Muye Village to discuss a new cooperation plan. He originally thought that a consensus could be reached as soon as possible, but the difficulty turned out to be beyond imagination.

It is a matter of core interests, the conflict is more obvious, and it is not easy to solve it.

Until Gushan Bushui arrived, the situation was still at a stalemate.Fortunately, although the two sides have great differences, the atmosphere of the negotiation is relatively harmonious.

Before substantial progress was made, it was not suitable for Gushan Bushui to act in advance with great fanfare, so he had to wander around, visit relatives and friends, and drop by the ninja school to see the future of Konoha Village.

The lazy ninja with white messy hair and a forehead shield covering his eyes, while listening to Gushan Bushui's complaint, responded casually:

"Your Excellency, Young Governor, if you stay honest and relieve the pressure on the guards, I will be thankful."

"The answer is irrelevant, Kakashi. We are also students of the same level who have dealt with each other, so you don't need to be so polite. You also know that I don't really need any guards. It's just that there have been too many major events recently, and I have to be prepared. The third generation... is too nervous. "

"I know that although you were very strong in the past, you were only at the level of Ebisu and Genma, and you were much less threatening than Kai. Now that I am by your side, I feel a thorn in my back. You... have become a lot stronger. .”

The old father Gusugi Masaki and the daimyo have been with the third generation of Hokage all the time, and there is Anbu to protect them. Don’t worry, Gusugi has some skills, but his strength has not been proven. Someone will try to take the risk.

Letting Hatake Kakashi take charge of protection is not really dangerous, but to avoid unnecessary trouble.

"It's a great honor for the future Hokage to be my personal bodyguard."

"Thank you for your kind words."

Hatake Kakashi, who didn't care at all, shrugged, put away the book in his hand, raised his head, scanned the surroundings with lazy eyes, found nothing unusual, and then made a gesture to ask the subordinate who was secretly responsible for maintaining order to lower his defense grade.

"I also secretly observed that child named Bai. To be honest, you were able to snatch such a genius from under the nose of Wuyin Village. This ability to pick up leaks is really amazing. Over there... just No comments?"

"My personal relationship with Terumi Mei is not bad, and Kiri Ninja owed me two favors, so there is no trouble for such a trivial matter. You don't know, that baby-faced Mizukage [-]th generation killed his own people a little They are not soft, Minazuki and Kaguya are not convinced, so they are gone..."

I would rather let the two powerful Blood Successor Limits, Bingdun and Shigumai, disappear in Wuyin Village, but also carry out the reform to the end, Gouju Yakura is a ruthless person.

"Terumi Mei? I have a little impression..."

"That's it? Let me tell you, that female Mist ninja is definitely the next Mizukage. There are seven ninja knives in a head-on conflict, and none of them is her opponent..."

"The gossip says that Orochimaru has suffered a bit in her hands. It seems to be true?"

"If someone else asks, I'm sure I'm too lazy to answer."

Gu Shan Bu Shui pouted,

"Among the peers in Muye Village, only you and Kai are qualified to be compared with him, and everyone else is a little bit worse."

"how about you?"

"I'm not a Konoha ninja. There is no substantive conflict between the Gushan family and Wuyin Village. Civil cooperation is actually quite frequent. As long as there is no war, the relationship is fine. It would be better if they show less rebellion and don't cause trouble Yes. There are more than [-] defected Mist ninjas who are intercepted and killed every year in the land of waves, the land of tea, and the land of bears, which is too many..."

Most of them were rewarded by underground bounty houses, and a small number were captured by governments at all levels, and Konoha Murakami Shinobu was entrusted to capture and kill some of them. In the past two years, Hatake Kakashi has dispatched three times for this matter.

It's not a big deal, too much, too complicated, and annoying.

"Ah……"

The copy ninja who chuckled a few times tilted his head, motioning for Gu Shanbu to move aside, and wanted to find a secluded place to talk about something.

A few minutes later, in a relatively secluded reception room of the Ninja School, Gushan Bumizu and Hatake Kakashi were sitting and talking.

"Tell me, what does the third generation have to say?"

"About Orochimaru..."

"Ok?"

Gu Shan Bu Shui was taken aback,

"What does he have to do with me?"

"The third generation wants to know what he did in the country of water. In the past few years, our Konoha village's secret post in the country of water has almost been uprooted. The intelligence over there is really powerless."

"So, you want to start with the Gushan family?"

After thinking about it, Gu Shan Bu Shui said,

"It seems to be the grievances and entanglements of the previous generation. In fact, it has only been more than five years since Orochimaru defected. Since the competition between the fourth generation of Hokage, Kyuubi attacked the village, and the 'Golden Flash' couple died in battle. Stealing the blood of the supercilious eyes, kidnapping Hyuga's ancestral daughter, causing Hinata Nissai to commit suicide, after that, Orochimaru was expelled and defected, and the Uchiha family was wiped out, a series of events, and it took nearly nine years."

Gu Shan Bu Shui said with a self-deprecating smile:

"I went from a ninja school dropout who couldn't graduate, to a benefactor waving banknotes back and forth..."

"You have more than banknotes..."

Kakashi Hatake said sternly,

"There are a lot of benefactors who have money and leisure, and they are not as difficult to deal with as you."

"Because I almost became one of you, I know the basics."

Gu Shan Bu Shui responded without hesitation,

"Don't worry, between Daimyo and Hokage, there is a difference in the right to speak and interests. The meat is kept in the pot, and it is a question of eating more and less. Closer to home, I am curious about the attitude of your Konoha ninjas. Fighting and shouting to kill, in fact, I didn't think about what to do with him."

With a wave of his hand, Gushan Bumizu stopped Hatake Kakashi's defense.

"I don't care what you say, just do what you do. Anbu's pursuit of Orochimaru is perfunctory. It's not as active as the 'gen' organization. I don't believe that Elder Danzo and Orochimaru'love each other and kill each other'. Not sure. So, this is intriguing..."

As long as it doesn't harm one's own people, Muye Village's enthusiasm for chasing and killing Jōnin-level traitors is very low.

It is better to devote limited manpower and material resources to entrusted tasks if you pay more and gain less.

In fact, all major ninja villages seem to have this strategy.

Unless the defector is Jinjuriki, or there is a very special reason, Anbu's pursuit is just a show.

Of course, there are exceptions, if those traitors did something outrageous and provoked the Gushan family to offer a huge reward, Muye Village would not mind showing their true skills.

"Don't tell me if you see it through, Shaojiadu, this is a wonderful remark you once had."

"Come on, just call me Bu Shui."

Leaning lazily on the ancient Shanbu water on the sofa, he took a sip of hot tea,

"After signing the agreement, I will present the information about the country of water, of course, only the part related to Orochimaru. After all, the money earned by Mist Ninja is quite sweet."

"I'll tell the third generation..."

"Hmm! I'm giving you a little inside information as a friendly gift. You guys are worried. It's very reasonable. You won't suffer a loss if you get the information at a small price."

"I really have to cheer up when I talk to you, maybe I'll be sold out by you at some point, and I have to thank you."

"Just treat it as a compliment."

Gu Shan Bu Shui changed the topic and began to talk about some personal matters.

"I remember reminding him about the matter of bringing soil back then, and Lin, I always felt like I was being calculated."

"Well, the teacher said the same, but the clue is broken."

"The body with soil, haven't found it yet?"

"I know what you mean. The Uchiha family also spent a lot of effort to search, but found nothing. Due to the general situation, they did not take back the Sharingan that Obito gave me, but they couldn't sit back and watch the other one disappear. The suspicion brought Tu's body was stolen, and then the person who stole Sharingan was not one or two. The spoiler who appeared on the night of the Uchiha extermination showed his Sharingan, maybe it was a pawn launched by the black hand behind the scenes. "

"You Muye Village, do you interpret it this way?"

Hearing Hatake Kakashi's words, Gushan Bumizu was also a little surprised.

The aftermath of the Battle of Kannabi Bridge was even greater than expected. Neither Konoha Village nor the Uchiha family gave up on the Sharingan on Obito Uchiha. It's just that time has passed and the hope of getting it back is getting better and better. small.

"Is there a problem? I also think the guess is a bit reasonable..."

"It's not a question of rationality, but..."

Gu Shan Bu Shui sneered and said,

"Without the promotion of stakeholders, it's a bit unreasonable. After doing so much, you have to plan something, right? Eliminate all the impossible, and return to the core of Obito. I have some doubts. You say, the man behind the scenes has taken a fancy to him Which point? Or, what role do you and Lin play in it?"

"You know what?"

Hatake Kakashi's face was serious, and he asked in a deep voice.

"Be clear to the bystanders. I have no interest entanglements, so I feel strange. The battle of Kannabi Bridge, and the Sanwei Jinchuriki incident in Nohara Rin later, Muye Village, Wuyin Village, and Yanyin Village are all victims, so who gets Benefits?"

Although the ending of the ninja war is to hurt each other, there is no winner, but when it comes to specific things, there is still a bit of context to follow.A series of coincidental events is bad enough to happen once, but if it happens again and again, there must be some force at work.

"I remember what you said, but I'm just an ordinary Junin, and some things don't count."

"Ah……"

Gu Shan Bu Shui smiled slightly mockingly,

"I also stand and talk without pain in my back. Anyway, it has nothing to do with me. The matter of the Uchiha family will not be buried because of the night of the genocide. The water inside is very deep. It is not the time to lift the cover. You ……Be careful."

"You knew already?"

Hatake Kakashi's pupils shrunk slightly, his gaze was as sharp as a knife, and he stabbed at Gu Shan Bu Shui,

"Your Gushan family's information is really well-informed."

"Look forward, don't dwell on the past."

Gushan Bumizu was not nervous at all because of Hatake Kakashi's attitude,

"If you have doubts, don't worry. The so-called clues in the night of the genocide are all decoys, and they don't touch the real key."

"What's the key? The battle of Kannabi Bridge?"

If it wasn't the young master of the Gusugi family, Hatake Kakashi would have wanted to arrest him and torture him by lynching.

"Some things, if you don't know yet, it means that you haven't reached the level to carry this heavy truth. Kakashi, whether it's the third generation or who entrusts you, or even you make your own investigation, just put on a show. "

"It's no wonder that you run into walls everywhere. It turns out that the Gushan family really has a share."

Hatake Kakashi sighed, Gushan Bumizu pouted disdainfully:

"Our Gushan family has not intentionally embarrassed the 'copy ninja'. You can think of it with your heels. Who else can make you run into walls, except Muye Village?"

Gu Shan Bu Shui pointed to the sky.

"Someone above doesn't want you to be troublesome. As for us, Gushan, how can we have time to care about the grievances and entanglements between you ninjas? If you think there are our handwriting, then someone must have paid a huge price and hoped that we would do so."

"So, Uchiha... really someone escaped?"

"Do you think they are all dead, or are some people surviving? Even if Uchiha Itachi colludes with foreign enemies, how likely is it that he can kill the entire family silently?"

Some things cannot stand scrutiny.The defense system of Muye Village is so fragile, it is impossible to survive to this day.

In fact, in September last year, there was news that Konoha Village realized that there was a high possibility that the Uchiha family had slipped through the net. At that time, there were too many opportunities to fish in troubled waters.

After more than half a year of investigation, there are no substantive results.After eliminating one suspect after another, there are not many "suspects" left, and the Gushan family is particularly conspicuous among them.

There may be a moment when the scandal is revealed to the world, but it is definitely not now. Muye Village needs time to lick its wounds, and Gushan Bushui doesn't want to make extra troubles at this time.

"Uchiha Mikoto, maybe it's a wonderful move.Fetters are often more important than strength.When her daughter is born, should I contact Uchiha Itachi?This is a high-quality tool person who emphasizes emotions. 』
