Ninja Ice House

At the end of spring and the beginning of summer, Nakashi Mizuki of Konoha village finished his vacation and appeared in front of the teachers and students of the ninja school again.

As a new father, Mizuki is obviously more calm and low-key than before.

Many people can't remember when he asked for leave and when he appeared suddenly.

Uchiha Zuosuke and the classmates in Kaorin's class, most of them have no deep impression of this silver-haired teacher.

In private, Uno Yin Luka introduced on his behalf, and not many people knew about Mizuki's sending out to teach.

This matter was not a major event in the village, and few people knew about it, only some teachers concerned took the initiative to know about it.

There are not many people like Mizuki who actively seek external transfers.

According to Sarutobi Hiruzen, some semi-retired old ninjas or unemployed second-line ninjas were transferred to "travel for a long time" to make money.

It is the top priority to mobilize the human and material resources in the village to the maximum extent and operate them efficiently to reduce the debt that has increased a lot.

It's not surprising that Mizuki, a middle-aged ninja who is willing to take the initiative to share the village's worries, wants to go this way.

After all, the road in the ninja school is almost blocked.

Trees move to death, people move to live.

It is not impossible to venture outside while you are young.

"Think about it, Mizuki, it's even harder outside! Although you may make more money, it's not a good idea to live in two places with your family!"

"I've already thought about it, I implore the third generation to complete it!"

"Fine!"

There is no need to deliberately stop such a small matter,

"Your wife is applying for teacher qualifications in horticulture, medical care, and basic subjects. If she passes the test and the child is older, you can often reunite. The village is not unreasonable, but the children in the ninja school are too sensitive! You have to understand everyone's difficulties..."

This is the same as if you can't get a certificate of no criminal record, you won't be able to enter many units. No matter how you prove that you are a good person, it won't help.

Mizuki's situation is a bit more difficult than this.

Who is willing to accept the ending of being marginalized for a lifetime at a young age?

After a few words of encouragement, Mizuki got up and said goodbye.

Although the matter is settled in this way, Mizuki's current responsibilities have not been withdrawn. At least at the end of this year, he will assist Unano Yin Luka to send this class of students away before he will be completely terminated and become a migrant ninja.

"The main task is completed, I don't need to monitor Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke any more! 』

If he couldn't change places and continue to serve Gu Shan Bu Shui, Mizuki knew that his value would drop significantly.

Without the support of noble people, it is difficult for me to achieve great things in this life.

In Muye Village, the restrictions are too great.

After digesting the outbreak of the "Tiger's Curse Seal" and the power bestowed by Gu Shan Bu Shui, Mizuki felt that his strength had made great progress, but he had never tried how strong he was.

It is only useful outside the village.

Breaking away from this cage that restricts oneself, Mizuki can feel that the shackles tied to him are a little looser.

Back at the ninja school, Yuno Yin Luka, who was working, immediately found out.

"How is it? Did the third generation agree?"

"It's not a big problem! After a while, I may have to travel frequently, but I still need to help with your affairs. It's just... It needs to be arranged in advance, and it may not be as timely as before. "

"That's all right! I'm not busy every day. You just need to lend a helping hand when you're particularly nervous."

"Ok!"

Mizuki patted the shoulder of his little friend who was sincerely happy for him,

"This time, thank you!"

"I just need a few more words, it's just a little effort, you're welcome!"

Many times, it is this kind of small act of kindness that can help others a lot.

"Is there any practical class in the afternoon?"

"Well! The atmosphere in the class is not bad, everyone is working hard."

"Then... I'll go prepare the layout of the school grounds!"

It's the graduation season, and the number of theoretical classes has decreased significantly, while practical and experience classes have increased significantly, which is also the only way for sixth grade students.

At the same time, during the somewhat boring lunch break, Naruto Uzumaki, who had obviously achieved results in his practice, was no longer the laughing stock of everyone like before.

The power of the shadow clone technique is gradually manifested. In the actual combat class, the number advantage is still very large in the competition of eleven or twelve-year-old children.

Of course, the foundation is too poor, and a few more avatars can bully poor students who are also weak. Children with a little strength are still no match for Uzumaki Naruto.

In the final analysis, it is still the limitation of the shadow clone technique itself.

This is just a B-level ninjutsu, not a forbidden technique with a learning difficulty of A that can separate super multiple shadow clones at once.

The slight difference in the actual operation has a great impact on Naruto Uzumaki.

Unlike Naruto Uzumaki, who has improved a bit, Sasuke Uchiha has calmed down a lot recently, and he didn't do much to show off in class.

Except for a few actual combat lessons, he was still suppressed by Xianglin, he left early and returned late, he was obsessed with cultivation, and did not pay attention to many rumors.

It is very difficult for Uchiha Zuosuke to really put his mind on practice and not respond to outside doubts at all.

After doing so, the benefits are also obvious.

His competitor, Kaorin, was the one who touched him the most.

Even the ordinary c-level fire escape ninjutsu is astonishingly powerful, and the timing of use and control flexibility have obviously been greatly improved.

In every actual combat class, Xianglin has to do his best to win.

Even with her father helping her, Uchiha Zuosuke's strength has improved, but she still hasn't been left behind too much, which is terrible.

"Are the Uchiha people all monsters like this?"

Unlike geniuses like Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Itachi, who became famous at a young age and had nothing to kill on the battlefield, Uchiha Zuosuke's talent seems to be inconspicuous in these aspects, but step by step, it seems slow but fast, steady Steadily turning the impossible one by one into reality.

You must know that the current Uchiha Zuosuke does not have the support of a big family behind him, nor does he have a great inheritance. He even found out the usage of Sharingan by himself.

Xianglin felt that if he switched positions with Uchiha Sasuke, he might not even have the courage to compete on stage, let alone try to catch up or even surpass.

Geniuses are all conscious, they will work hard to learn to recognize themselves, others, and the world around them, and then use their own power to achieve their goals!

In the past, Xiang Lin didn't understand why his father was so afraid of the so-called geniuses, but now he understands that these are all natural trendsetters who can create miracles.

In the past, Xianglin also felt that his talent was good, and in fact it was true. However, compared with a genius like Uchiha Sasuke, he lacked that kind of temperament.

With this in mind, Xianglin turned his attention to Uzumaki Naruto.

If there is anyone in the class whose heart is most similar to Uchiha Zuosuke, that person must be Uzumaki Naruto who does not seem to be strong and whose future is not very clear.

"Father's vision and judgment are indeed correct, the two of them are the two people with the highest potential in this class!" 』

When qualifications cannot close the decisive gap, character is the key factor that determines the future.

In the back row, Kurama Yakumo, who was monitoring many emotional changes, focused on Uzami.

At first, Kurama Yakumo only discovered her mood swings, many of which had something to do with Uchiha Sasuke's encounters, so he was curious about her relationship with Uchiha Sasuke.

Kuruma Yakumo, who has been observing secretly for such a long time and found nothing special, has noticed the hidden power erupting from time to time in her body.

It is a special chakra that is involuntarily revealed with Uzami's emotions, mysterious, powerful, and cannot find its root.

But one thing is for sure, it is somewhat similar to the imprint of Gushan Bushui implanted on his body.

"Are you also one of the pawns laid by that man?" 』

The more he observed the village, the more Kurama Yakumo noticed something bad.

The reason why the Kurama family appears to be separated from the mainstream family in Konoha Village is not just because they have been separated from the core for too long and are too alienated.

What's more, Kurama Yakumo thinks that it's better not to believe that Gushan Bushui has too much kindness towards Konoha Village.

It is much more important to look at the actions of the Gushan family and tacitly avoid risks than to stand in line hastily and invest a lot of money to intervene in the operation of the "chess game".

Moreover, judging from the recent series of changes in Muye Village, it seems that the Gushan family is deliberately downplaying their sense of existence.

Many real estate properties for sale have been liquidated at an accelerated pace, and even some properties that are not in a hurry to sell have been sold at a fair price.

The explanation to the outside world is to withdraw funds and strengthen the construction of Shinjuku Town. What is the actual situation, Kurama Yakumo has a steelyard in mind.

『The Gushan family, who have always adhered to the style of "have everything", will not make any choices about such "small things", and it is not an either-or confrontation. 』

As long as Gu Shan Bu Shui is willing to speak, some people will rush to send him money.

Not even necessary.

Judging from the flow of business between the Kurama family and the Gushan family, it can be clearly judged that the "reduction" of the assets of Muye Village this time seems to be passive, but it is actually going smoothly.

"I wanted to run away for a long time, but I couldn't find a good excuse. This time I took the opportunity to make a cut, and everyone is happy." 』

As for why he ran, Kuruma Yakumo didn't know!

However, thinking about the fire a few years ago, the Kurama family, whose main business was outside the village, was almost unscathed, and the others were not so lucky.

At this moment, Uzami, who was talking to someone in front of her, suddenly turned her head, looked in the direction of Kurama Yakumo, and showed a reserved smile.

"She found me watching, how is it possible? 』

Maybe some people in the class would ignore the influence of their own illusion, but with Uzami's usual performance, she doesn't have such ability at all.

『Are you hiding your strength?interesting! 』

If there is no accident, she will be his teammate in the future, and the days to come will not be boring.

-----------------

In Otonin Village, Orochimaru looked at Sora who had been planted with a curse mark, struggling in pain. The red and black curse mark lines on his body spread step by step, seeming to have infected everything, but there was still a strange feeling in his body. Strength, resisting the power of the curse seal.

It's not like the power of the tailed beast, but a brand new, unprecedented hidden power.

In the past, I couldn't see or touch it. I only knew that he existed, but I never observed the actual performance.

Now, it showed a strong rejection of the curse seal.

Only the power of the same level and above can expel the power of the same level. This is an eternal truth.

The curse seal chakra is a degraded version of the fairy chakra, that is to say, there is a magical power in the empty body that is different from the tailed beast chakra, but can compete with the fairy chakra.

Half an hour later, Orochimaru was even more surprised to find that the power of the curse seal was gradually at a disadvantage in the confrontation with that force, retreating steadily, and even being completely expelled.

This phenomenon has completely overturned Orochimaru's perception of the power of the curse seal.

"There is really a way to clear the curse seal that has penetrated into the depths of the soul! This is... a magical power that is also rooted in the soul! I have never heard of it before, so strange! Where did it come from?"

After talking to himself for a while, Orochimaru denied himself again,

"No, it seems that there is a difference in the cognition of the soul! It's like a house that already has an owner. If you want to forcefully occupy it, the difficulty will definitely increase."

This is a game of grabbing chairs at the soul level. If someone else sits first, the other person will not be able to sit down again in the same position.

"Unless the other party allows and is willing to share, or change a chair!"

The Orochimaru was said to have been taken out and improved several times, and it was never used again. The "Tiger Curse Seal", which was considered worthless, was cast on Sora.

More than a minute later, he had just experienced the baptism of the curse seal, and after a short rest, a series of beating black and red lines appeared on his body, quickly covering his whole body.

This time, unlike the previous strong rejection, the two lived in peace and finally stabilized.

"So that's it, that's it! You are no longer a complete human being. The mutation of your body is just an appearance, and your soul has been incomplete, and part of it has been taken up by other things. This phenomenon seems a little familiar..."

In an instant, the word "Inchuriki" emerged from Orochimaru's mind.

A child who carries part of the tailed beast chakra is absolutely impossible to be Jinchuriki, even if he finds a way to get rid of this power, at most it will make him weak instead of dying.

"There is something similar to a tailed beast. It did something similar to Jinchuriki on you. Is this an oath of sovereignty, and is it also guarding against me? Interesting..."

Unconsciously moved his mind, grabbed a ready-made Jinchuriki to study Orochimaru, and instantly remembered the words of those Iwanin captives.

"Four-tailed Jinchuriki, Lao Zi, ran away from the village and traveled to the ninja world? What a naive old man, he was too careless!"
