Naruto: Immortal Spirit

"Minato Namikaze appeared just a few days ago, and today you told me that in addition to Rasa, another Sunagakure appeared..."

"How many more geniuses will appear! Tell me! Tell me!"

The Third Raikage grabbed the ninja who came to report the battle. Violent chakra surged from his body. His red eyes stared closely at the young ninja in front of him, like a giant beast that chose people to devour.

"Thunder...Thunder Shadow...Master..."

The young ninja's voice trembled, fine cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and his whole body was stiff. He didn't know how to respond. He knew that Raikage had been furious recently because of the defeat in the war, but it was his duty and he had to bite the bullet and move forward. Come.

"Hmph... tell me... any other information..."

Raikage slowly calmed down and put down the ninja who had informed him. Although he was angry for a moment, he was not a cruel leader who did not distinguish between right and wrong.

"It's... it's a letter from the Tsuchikage..."

The young ninja quickly handed over Ohnoki's letter and then stood aside respectfully, not daring to make any noise. He stood quietly, like a sculpture, as if he was afraid that the Raikage would remember that there was someone else in the office.

"Ohnoki! That's too much!"

With fire in his eyes, Raikage quickly browsed through the contents of the scroll and punched a hole in the office wall with a clenched fist. However, the thunder that still shot out of his body made the young ninja tremble in his Adam's apple.

Raikage's eyes instantly focused on the young ninja, and the waves radiating from his body made the young ninja step back half a step...

"Go! Send a reply to that guy Onoki! Tell those Iwa ninjas to get out of here!"

"Yes!"

The young ninja who had just raised his feet realized what Raikage had said, and couldn't help but turn his head and look at Raikage with uncertainty in his eyes.

"Didn't you hear what I said?"

"But……"

"Ok?"

"Yes!"

He was accustomed to the furious Raikage making some unbelievable decisions, but after confirmation again, the young ninja understood that the Raikage was not joking this time.

Gently closing the door to the Raikage's office, the young ninja breathed a sigh of relief.

"boom!"

The sudden loud noise from behind the door made his face twitch. He knew that when he came tomorrow, he should bring a new desk with him...

……

As time passed slowly and the snow began to melt, Kato Oo gradually adapted to his new identity - Konoha's new special jounin.

He can participate in some higher-level meetings, and can also redeem higher-level ninjutsu through merit.

But compared to these, the eyes in the Konoha camp that looked at him as if they were looking at exotic animals made it even more difficult for him to adapt.

These looks seemed to remind him that in the eyes of others, he was completely considered a member of the Minato faction - although he had no choice.

In the Konoha camp, the snow on the high platform had begun to melt, and the sunlight seemed to turn golden in the white sky.

Kato Ou was alone in an open space far away from the camp where a few wisps of residual snow hung. He took out his kunai and kept throwing it. The kunai that fell on the ground splashed countless snowflakes, but his facial expression did not change at all.

Sighing slightly, Kato Oo's mind was racing with thoughts, his eyes flashed with strange colors, and he slowly walked towards the place where the kunai fell.

"I should be going back soon..."

The Kumo ninja has stopped attacking at all, and even the tentative attacks have completely disappeared. Kato Ou has only been in contact with three Kumo ninja teams during this period. People from one team recognized him and turned around. After retreating, the other two teams only threw a few kunai before retreating into the jungle.

The tense atmosphere in the camp seemed to begin to melt away along with the heavy snow. All ninjas with war experience knew that the Kumo ninja was about to withdraw.

If the previous process is followed, the next step will be truce negotiations, war compensation negotiations, the two sides re-signing a non-aggression treaty, and then waiting for one party to tear up the treaty again - but that may be a few years or more than ten years later.

"Xu...you are here...I have been looking for you for a long time..."

Lin's voice came from a distance, and her breath turned into a long stream of silver mist in the air. She was wearing a cute white rabbit ear headdress, which seemed to have been given to her by Obito on a snowy day.

"what happened?"

Kato Ou responded and silently continued walking in the direction where the kunai landed.

"Xu, it turns out you are practicing kunai..."

Lin tilted her head and looked at it. She wondered if it was because of the bunny ears headdress. Lin looked a bit playful and cute today.

"I discussed it with Obito and wanted to visit Kakashi today..."

"Is he not feeling well yet?"

Kato Oo walked slowly in front, his footsteps crunching loudly on the snow. Lin chased after him, breathing constantly.

"No... I don't know why, Obito's injuries have healed... but Kakashi is still in the ward..."

Lin also had a little more worry in her eyes. She followed Kato Oo and stopped at the place where the kunai fell and stirred up a piece of falling snow. She watched Kato Oo slowly squat down and separate the snow, with some doubts in her eyes.

Quietly lying on the rotten pine needles under the snow layer was a snow-white fox. Its eyes were full of fear, and its whole body was surrounded by kunai, trapping it on the ground like a cage and unable to move. The kunai didn't hurt him at all, but it didn't dare to move at all.

"so cute!"

Before Kato Oo could speak, Lin hurriedly pulled up the kunai nailed to the ground, picked up the white fox and held it in her arms, looking at Kato Oo angrily.

"I just need a fox fur scarf..."

Kato Oo's faint voice seemed to frighten the little fox. It opened its teeth and claws, as if to rebuke Kato Oo's cruelty, and suddenly bit Lin's hand.

"it hurts!"

Lin retracted her hand, and the little fox jumped out of her arms and disappeared into the jungle as quickly as lightning, leaving only a stunned Lin looking at Kato Oo with a bit of loss and anger.

"Xu! It's all your fault! I scared it!"

"Next time... I'll give you a white fox scarf..."

Kato Ou smiled softly, said no more, and walked in front alone. Lin was left alone to look angrily at the direction in which the white fox was escaping, and it took a long time to catch up.

"Xu, don't forget what you said!"
