Naruto: Spirit of Life

The masked man continued to speak to Hei Zetsu: "Hei Zetsu, Xiaonan has been in conflict with us recently. Even in front of Nagato, he often fights against us? Is it different from before?"

Hei Jue said: "I don't know, maybe there will always be a few days for women, Madara, I recently found out something in the Kingdom of Ghosts, you may be interested."

The masked man said: "In the country of ghosts, the witches there are said to have mysterious powers and can predict the future!"

Bai Jue said: "Yes, but recently, there have been several turmoils in the Kingdom of Ghosts. The witch's prophecy ability has failed, and it seems that it can no longer be used."

Hei Jue said: "Although they blocked the news, I still found out the truth through the maid who took care of the witch. The witch from the Kingdom of Ghosts was injured during a purification and predicted the end of the world."

The masked man asked doubtfully: "The end of the world?! I heard that the witch's predictions are always 100% correct?"

Bai Jue said: "That's right? The witch's previous predictions were 100% fulfilled. Now the Kingdom of Ghosts has become chaotic, and the witch herself has left it alone."

"It seems we need to meet this witch. What exactly is the end of the world she said?"

The masked man's deep voice reached Black and White Zetsu's ears, and the three magatama Sharingan exposed flashed seductively in the darkness.

……

Konoha's new union system makes Tsunade much more relaxed than before. The girl at the counter will chat with the ninjas gently, handle the registration of tasks and the release of tasks from the client.

The four levels of a.b.c.d have dedicated task halls. The task lists have task descriptions and danger levels. Ninjas now have much more freedom than before.

At Sarutobi Hiruzen's house, Koharu and Mito Kaden were sipping tea with Sarutobi Hiruzen. Not a single bit of the money they had embezzled was left. It had been a month since the last incident. Okay, the two of them have looked away now.

Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "Why do you two have time to come to my place today?"

When Koharu went to bed, he looked even older than Sarutobi Hiruzen. He smiled and said, "I felt bored, so I came here to find you."

Mito Kadoyan said: "We have struggled all our lives, but in the end it was all in vain when we got old. You left in time, Sarutobi, we don't know when we lost ourselves."

Sarutobi Hiruzen took a sip of tea in his hand and said: "Yes, we used to work hard for our ideals and for Konoha. We were not afraid of sacrifices or difficulties. Even after we became Hokage, we were still trembling with fear. , but I don’t know when we have lost ourselves. The longer time goes by, the more scared we become and the weaker we become.”

After turning to bed, Xiaochun sighed and said: "Alas, our friendship, kindness, and those beautiful things in the past were all lost at some point."

Mito Kadoyan continued: "I hope Maya, Tsunade and the others won't lose themselves to power like us."

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled and said: "Tsunade might, but Maya won't. You two old friends, you don't hate Maya now, do you Tsunade?"

After turning to bed, Xiaochun said: "At first, I felt itchy with hatred, but now I have figured it out, it just feels like that."

Mito Kadoyan said: "Now that I have let go, I feel much more relaxed all over. No wonder you let go of your power so easily and leave everything to Tsunade."

"Haha... I'm really tired. I'm going to go fishing in the back mountain later. Do you want to come with me?"

"Okay! That's why we came to you."

At the invitation of Sarutobi Hiruzen, Koharu and Mito Kaden each brought fishing and other things.

……

Compared to Hiruzen Sarutobi, Koharu, and Mito Monobu, even if the workload has been reduced, the Hokage is still responsible for a lot of work.

Boom boom boom!

Suddenly, there was a knock at the window by an eagle carrying a message. Shizune came over, opened the window, and brought in the letter on the eagle.

"Hokage-sama, this is an urgent envelope from the Kingdom of Demons."

Shizune quickly handed the letter to Tsunade.

"The country of ghosts!"

Tsunade took the letter and looked at it. The content on it made her brown pupils shrink a bit.

"This is it! Shizune, go and call Maya right away!"

"Yes, Hokage-sama!"

Shizune hurriedly left the office and called the active ANBU to call Maya.

At home, Maya, who had just finished lunch, planned to practice senjutsu, but was called to the Hokage's office by the ANBU.

Seeing Maya coming, Tsunade said quickly: "An urgent letter from the Kingdom of Demons. There has been disturbance in the Kingdom of Demons. There have been several forces resisting the miko. Your mission is to save the miko from the Kingdom of Demons. , bring it back to Konoha safely."

"Rebellion? Wait, Master, how could there be a rebellion in the Kingdom of Demons? Is it the fault of the daimyo's guys?"

In the country of ghosts, Maya deliberately learned more about the incident after encountering the demon, but the rebellion happened, which really exceeded his expectations.

Tsunade said: "For this mission, I asked Sakura to go with you. By the way, Jiraiya is taking Naruto out for training. Let Jiraiya also go with you. What happened on Hanajima Island?" , you can tell him."

"understand!"

Maya nodded. Sakura was already waiting for him at the gate of Konoha Village. Jiraiya originally planned to take Naruto away, but was stopped by Sakura. After understanding the urgency of the matter, he took Naruto with him. People, along with Maya and Sakura, go to the country of ghosts.

On the way, Naruto curiously asked Maya about the miko in the Kingdom of Ghosts, and Maya also told the reason for this mission.

"Large-scale opposition to the rule of mikos has arisen all over the Kingdom of Ghosts. For unknown reasons, it has fallen into chaos. All forces want to kill mikos. Lord Jiraiya, I'm sorry to disturb your trip.

Maya sighed. Was this the butterfly effect caused by him? After meeting Maitreya in Yuliang Village before, he had a general understanding of the power of witches. Similarly, the demons and monsters from another world felt that they were not just ordinary monsters.

Maya and others continued on their way. When they stopped at night, Maya took the opportunity to tell Jiraiya all about Hanajie and the daimyo.

The rebellion of the daimyo, the mysterious evil god behind it, the unrecorded map, Hanajima Island, which is cut off from the ninja level, and every secret that Maya told, surprised Jiraiya.

"Tsunade, does the old man also know?"

Jiraiya said with a solemn expression.

Maya replied: "That's right, I just haven't found the right time to tell you, Jiraiya-sama. If I find out about Hanajima next time, I will still need your power."

Jiraiya smiled bitterly and said: "Immortality is really tempting. That guy Orochimaru has been desperately chasing this goal. That woman called the evil god can easily promise this thing."
