Konoha: Naruto Returns from Sekiro

Inside the Hokage Building.

Naruto stretched out his hands, and took the Jonin uniform and related documents from Tsunade.

Three days ago, with the hard work of more than a hundred Daoying clones for nearly a month, he finally completed the amount of tasks required to be promoted to Jonin.

Promotion to Jonin sounds complicated, but in essence there are three things—merit, strength, and connections.

With his merits up to standard, relying on his strength, and being recommended by Nara Shikaku and others, it was so natural for him to become a chunin and become a jounin.

"You will be a Jonin of Konoha from now on. After the ceremony, should I take back the uniform? I feel like you won't need it." Tsunade thought.

"After all, the production cost is quite high."

Naruto coughed twice, and silently put the uniform on his side.

He also felt that this woman was not joking.

If he nodded, it is estimated that the uniform in his hand would really be taken back.

Sometimes, he really felt that Tsunade was not a Hokage, but a female bandit.

"When will the promotion banquet be held?" Tsunade's upright buttocks pressed against the desk, forming a seductive arc.

"The day after tomorrow happens to be the weekend."

Naruto blushed and turned his gaze to the side.

Jiraiya on the side was not so shy. He tried his best to widen his eyes, as if he wanted to replace the table.

"Um--"

Tsunade touched his chin lightly with his fingers, "I happened to be free that day, so remember to prepare more sake."

"no problem."

Naruto nodded, it happened that there was nowhere to spend the mission rewards he got these days.

"Okay, it's okay." Tsunade waved his hand.

Looking at the back of the boy leaving, she crossed her arms and fell into deep thought.

It is a good thing that the next generation of heroes in the village is bright, but it also comes with a lot of headaches.

How to treat the three people fairly became a question she needed to think about.

Differential treatment will make people dissatisfied; dissatisfaction turns competition into confrontation; confrontation causes internal friction...

"Oh." Tsunade rubbed the center of her brows, she understood the old man's difficulties at that time.

Orochimaru?Namikaze Minato?

The palms of the hands and the backs of the hands are full of flesh. It doesn’t matter who you choose, or whoever you choose.

"Jiraiya, why don't you become the Sixth Hokage?" She said angrily without a clue.

This kind of headache should be left to the old bastard to think about.

Ji Lai was also surprised, "Huh?!"

Hastily refused, Hokage Dog would be disgusted, whoever loves to do it.

……

On the border of the Land of Fire, there is such a desolate small sinkhole country. It is surrounded by desolate Gobi, but inside it is lush with woods and full of birds and flowers.

It has been called the sanctuary since ancient times, also known as the giant pit.

There is a legend that there is a secret treasure hidden in the sinkhole. No one knows whether it is true or not, but the natural scenery that is completely different from the surroundings makes people flock to it.

It is believed that the treasures hidden in it create this unique natural landscape.

The small Tiankeng country is not large, not even half of the Rain Country, but it has a lot of divided areas.

The small village called Tonica in front of me is one of them.

As soon as the shadow clone Yiming walked into the village, someone immediately greeted him.

"Chief, the last two notes have been determined and are being kept by the village chief of Tonika Village." A man whispered.

"We have tried to negotiate with them but have been rejected."

"Take me to find him." The shadow clone responded, and when he issued the task, he was the one who told Long Yin's members not to use force as much as possible.

So he has no dissatisfaction with the current result.

Ok?

One of the shadow avatars stamped their feet slightly, turned their heads and looked back, and saw a man and two women, a total of three Konoha ninjas, walking in the streets of Tonica Village.

As a "famous" tourist attraction in Jukeng, it is not surprising that ninjas appear. After all, ninjas are also human beings, and they will pursue the pursuit of a better life.

But the appearance of a fully formed ninja team was surprising.

Especially these three ninjas he still knows...

"Saui, what are you looking at?" Sakura asked confused.

"It feels like someone is watching us." Sai said uncertainly, looking at the crowded streets.

"It's an illusion. After all, there are so many people, it's inevitable that one or two eyes will be cast on us." Sakura comforted.

Saoi is from the root family and grew up in a completely different environment than them. It is inevitable that she is a little uncomfortable with daily life.

Since the disbandment of Roots, Sai has re-partnered with her to form a team.

So she was no longer surprised by this guy's indirect vigilance, and even felt that this guy was a bit pitiful.

Growing up in that kind of deformed environment inevitably affects the body and mind.

"Ino, do you think so?" She turned her head and asked her best friend beside her.

"Kuan Fu is right, Sakai, you are just too nervous. This is just a normal mediation mission, and there is no chance of a fight."

"Just treat it as a tourist. The unique environment here is very suitable for tourism."

"Hello, Mr. Village Chief." Naruto shook hands with the white-haired old man in front of him.

Although the old man's biceps are more exaggerated than his, judging from the fluctuations in his life, he has indeed entered his twilight years.

"Hello."

The mayor of Tonika Village looked at the young man in front of him slightly nervously.

The guy standing behind the young man defeated the captain of the guard head-on when he came to negotiate with him two days ago.

One can imagine the status of a person who makes such a strong man so respectable.

"I won't go around the bush anymore. The 'musical notes' handed down by the village chief are the purpose of my trip." The shadow clone immediately cut to the chase.

According to legend, the Heavenly Spear created by the ancient god was deprived of its power by the filthy man. The filthy man hated everything and attempted to use that power to destroy the world.

A dead man accidentally picked up fragments of power. He turned into a man with red flames and launched a revenge against the filthy people. After seven bitter battles in purgatory, he finally won.

Then, in order to protect the power from being taken away by other filthy people, the flame man broke down the power into seven notes.

It is these musical notes that Shadow Clone Yiming is looking for.

Members of the Longyin organization have collected five of the notes, leaving only the last two notes, which were kept by Tonika Village, and have not yet been obtained.

"Master Ninja, since you know the existence of musical notes, you must also be aware of the evil of this force." The head of Tonica Village hurriedly dissuaded him.

"Its existence has surpassed the scope of human cognition."

"The power of the Spear of the Sky is simply beyond the control of human beings."

"Attempts to master the taboo power will only cause the backlash of the taboo power, harming others and ourselves."

"I can only say that I know much more about that power than you do." The shadow clone Yiming shook his head slightly.

According to his and Kyuubi's speculation, nine out of ten the spear of the sky, the god of creation in ancient times, was brought along with the Otsutsuki that descended on this planet a long time ago.

For others, this power may be a forbidden one.

But for him who has integrated Otsuki-style Gouyu Reincarnation Eye, and his body structure is changing towards Otsutsugi, he doesn't need to be afraid of the power of the Sky Spear like other people.

"How about twenty years of life in exchange for the musical note in your hand?" said the shadow clone Yiming.

He has always firmly believed in the principle that what you pay for is what you get, and the reason why transactions cannot be established is often because the price is not enough.
