I just returned to Konoha and found that all my clan members were gone.

Turtle Island means that it is not easy for the other party to find them, and after learning that there might be spies around them, Killer Bee only told Kakashi and the other three, and did not even tell the two Kages, Tsunade and Mei Terumi.

He just told them the location of the ambush. After Tsunade learned of Killer Bee's proposal, she thought about it for a while and agreed, and Mei Terumi didn't dare to ask more questions and could only agree.

Now the exact location of Turtle Island can only be found by the Akatsuki organization itself.

However, Mei Terumi was very considerate. She knew that she could not get the most accurate address, but in order to make it easier for Ye Lan and the others to find the location, she specially sent them a speedboat. Otherwise, the inland Rain Country would have to build a ship.

Nagato's real body was also hidden in the ship under Konan's arrangement, and following him were Hoshigaki Kisame and Uchiha Sasuke.

The two sides agreed that Kisame and Sasuke would search for Naruto's training on the sea, while Ye Lan would go to Konoha alone to create chaos.

Once Nagato and the others find the exact address, they will inform Ye Lan, who will then take the first step, while Kakuzu and Hidan will put pressure on the border.

The last war in the ninja world seems to be coming to an end, but a different story is happening in a peaceful corner.

The country of fields.

Originally, there were several small countries between this place and Yuyin, but the Rain Country was very strong and almost pushed the battle line to the border of the Thunder Country.

The original Otogakure Village had long been in name only, and without any ability to resist, it had long since become a vassal state of the Rain Country.

Without the oppression of nobles and ninjas, life here began to get better little by little.

And Orochimaru, no, now it should be said to be Sagittarius.

Mi lived among ordinary people, away from the intrigues among ninjas. This peaceful life allowed him to find peace and quiet.

Aside from Ye Lan, even the Akatsuki high-ranking officials didn't know that one of the former Three Ninjas had now turned into a child.

Mi sometimes would write letters to Ye Lan. He was very interested in the changes that Ye Lan had brought to the ninja world, but he just didn't want to get involved.

After talking for a long time, Ye Lan noticed the changes in the other party and had already proposed the hypothesis of natural energy cultivation. The fact that Ye Lan could become so strong, surpassing all previous Hokage, was closely related to this aspect.

After feeling that the other party posed no threat, Ye Lan told Si some simple training methods.

After practicing, he immediately realized the mystery of this practice. Even though his appearance had changed, Orochimaru's influence was still there in the depths of his soul.

He also has a desire for life, but he is too young to show it yet.

After a short period of training, he was surprised to find that this energy could not only strengthen his physical fitness and ninjutsu, but also prolong his life if stored in the body for a long time.

He has now thought of various ways to obtain a deeper level of cultivation method from Ye Lan.

After finishing his practice today, Si sat alone in the yard. He was worried that his practice could not make any further progress. He had no intention of robbing anything, but he was annoyed that Ye Lan could not give it to him on his own initiative.

"Lord...Mr. Si."

Kabuto still can't change his mind. Even though Tsutomu has told him that he is not Orochimaru and he can have his own life, Kabuto still chooses to stay with Tsutomu.

He really didn't know what he could do after leaving, and Honglian, who also had nowhere to go, also lived with them.

"Kou, you don't have to call me that. Just call me by my name."

Mi's expression was softer, totally different from Orochimaru's previous gloomy appearance.

Kabuto is very satisfied with his current life with Mitsukoshi, but after serving under Orochimaru for a long time, he can't help but respect Mitsukoshi.

Seeing that the other party was still respectful, Si didn't say anything else. He had said it several times and there was nothing he could do if the other party still had the same attitude.

"Is something wrong? Kabuto."

Dou adjusted his glasses and said embarrassedly.

"We don't have much money left. If we want to maintain this lifestyle, we have to think about how to make money."

The air suddenly became quiet. Michi had never expected that Dou would come looking for him for such a reason.

That's right, he has not been to Orochimaru's previous base since his rebirth, and all his remaining properties were left in this place.

Not only did the three of them stop doing the tasks, they also lived off the capital. They hired a lot of workers to maintain such a large courtyard.

After such a long time, the property is probably almost at the bottom.

The attentive Dou noticed Si's embarrassment and took the initiative to speak.

"Because now that Tian Kingdom has become a vassal state of Yu Kingdom, there are very few people causing trouble now, and we can no longer use the power of ninja. Once we are discovered, we may be discovered by the security team, and then we may have to move."

"Besides, Honglian has already started working. I heard that she is working as a waiter in a restaurant."

This was the first time that Si felt ashamed. Although he admitted that the two were no longer his subordinates, he still had to provide them with food and shelter since they followed him. Now he could hardly even afford food.

"Well, how long can our funds last?"

Si Shanshan said that only at this moment did he feel a little like a teenager.

Dou spoke calmly and slowly, "Based on the current situation, we can probably hold out for two months. After two months, we won't even be able to pay the chefs."

None of the group of people know how to cook, so they hired a chef to meet their daily needs, but now they can barely afford the salary.

"Forget it, I'll write a letter to Ye Lan and ask him to provide some financial support."

The only person I can contact now is Ye Lan. With his current status and position, it should not be a problem for him to lend me some money.

Dou said, "If we borrow money directly, it can indeed alleviate the difficulties temporarily, but as far as I know, Ye Lan still has foreign debts that have not been repaid. Instead of borrowing money from him, why don't we find something to do so that the Rain Country has a reason to fund us."

Si and Ye Lan did not hide the fact that they were connected to each other from Dou, and Ye Lan also made some efforts to enable them to live here safely.

Si's face returned to normal, "It seems you have already thought of a solution, tell me."

Dou straightened his expression and bent down slightly.

"Master Si, although we have entered peace now, the war on the border has not stopped. Many refugees have fled here, including many orphans without parents. I want to build an orphanage to take in these children. If you talk to Master Ye Lan about this, I'm sure he will agree."

Mizuki looked at the somewhat uneasy Kou, his slender pupils trying to see what the other person was thinking.

Finally he nodded and said, "Then let's do as you wish."
