If you don't want to unify the ninja world, why are you crying about the ninja village system?

In the Empire, in the Water Province, in Snow Crystal Village.

This is a medium-sized village with a permanent population of over 20,000.

Of course, this is also a gathering place for ethnic groups in the Water Province, mainly composed of ninjas with ice escape bloodline limit and bloodline people.

Although most of them are civilians and have not activated the Ice Release Bloodline Genkai, they are still proud and proud.

"Bai, listen to my advice and stop associating with that guy!"

Bai looked at this mother who was a transformation of himself, and he felt very conflicted and hesitant.

He was intoxicated by her face and gentleness that were exactly the same as his mother's.

But he couldn't listen to his mother on this matter...

If it weren't for Lord Zabuza, I wouldn't exist in this world, and I wouldn't have the chance to see my mother again now!

"Bai! Mom knows you're a good kid. We've already repaid him for all the kindness he's shown us these days!"

"He saved your life, but in the end, isn't he just using you as a tool?"

"How have we treated him unfairly these days? We even provided him with so many powerful ninja tools and genetic medicines."

"But look at him? He is so old, and although he is a jonin, he is actually only the weakest among the jonin. Besides, because of his age, he is also very slow in learning the Imperial Body Refining Technique."

"And he looks... so ferocious! You can tell at first glance that he's not a good person!"

"Bai, listen to my mother's advice. Don't associate with friends like this anymore! I'm doing this for your own good!"

Bai didn't want to disappoint his mother's expectations, but he also didn't want to betray Lord Zabuza.

But these days, he could see that Zabuza was having a hard time in their Snow Crystal Village.

If he were a commoner, it wouldn't matter, because commoners are all the same.

But he is a ninja, and a very weak jonin at that!

Moreover, he had a hideous face, and often scared children to tears when he showed his face, which made the villagers with children dislike Zabuza very much.

Of course, the main reason is that he is not an imperial citizen!

Bai has a bloodline limit and is guaranteed by his family, so the first moment he came to this world, he was registered in the Empire and became a citizen recognized by the Empire.

As for not beheading...

He must go through a two-year probation period. He currently only has a temporary ID card. During this period, it will be confirmed that he will not pose any threat or influence to the empire. He can only be converted to a permanent resident if he has no criminal record within two years.

As for Zabuza's variant, he had looked for it, but the Water Province was too large, and he had only vaguely heard that he seemed to have joined the army.

Outside the door, Zabuza sighed deeply.

Everything in the empire was thriving, including the Water Province.

Bai has taken him to many places these days. The economy of the Water Province has been developed in a unique way because of its proximity to the sea, overseas trade and abundant aquatic products.

The prosperity here left Zabuza dumbfounded.

There are oceanariums where you can go a thousand meters under the sea to see the underwater world, as well as artificial ski resorts, open-air ice palaces, and so on.

These buildings, which cannot possibly appear in the Water Kingdom, can be found in any larger city in the Water Province!

Moreover, the children here can live and work in peace and get an excellent education from a young age.

Recalling my own experiences as a child.

It seemed that he had been imprisoned with a group of children since he was old enough to walk and eat, and everyone had only one goal, which was to kill each other.

In contrast to the two, a tear flowed from Zabuza's eyes.

"The Land of Water..."

The country to which he gave faith and hope is shining here, and Zabuza is very grateful to the emperor of this world.

As for the unfair things that happen to you?

Zabuza didn't think it mattered at all.

I myself am a criminal!

Looking at Bai who was arguing with his mother in the house, Zabuza inserted a letter into the door, and then he slowly walked away.

Zabuza remembered a long time ago, in Chapter 31, when he was dismissive of Kakashi's invitation.

Thinking of what was said at that time and what was about to be done, Zabuza couldn't help but blush even though he had experienced many years of hardships.

"It's impossible for me to betray Kirigakure... I won't do that even if I starve to death, get tortured to death, have my limbs cut off, or get boiled in a fire..."

Thinking back to when he had passionately expressed his loyalty to Kirigakure, he now felt that those words were just harsh.

Bai, he is actually a kind and soft-hearted boy.

He didn't have the heart to argue with his mother, so he just did his best to defend Zabuza.

However, his interaction with his mother ended unpleasantly.

Bai sighed softly.

His heart was full of contradictions and helplessness, and he decided to go see Zabuza.

Just as he opened the door, a letter slid down from top to bottom like a light feather.

Bai picked up the letter carefully.

There were only three words on the title page of the letter: "Dear Bai."

Bai stared at these three words, and his whole body suddenly began to tremble.

He had already guessed the general content.

"Bai, when you read this letter, I will have already left. Please do not worry about me. I do not want you to have conflicts with your family members who you have reunited with after a long absence because of my existence. The current state of the Water Kingdom makes me full of gratitude to this world, especially the emperor who rules over everything."

"Bai, practice well, you still have a long way to go in life. I hope you can use your own strength and power to contribute to the empire and the Water Province. This is my expectation for you."

"Bai, thank you for your company along the way. You don't need to look for me. When the time is right, I will come to find you."

"——Momochi Zabuza."

Bai's eyes were blurred with tears and he held the letter tightly.

"Master Zabuza..."

The content of the letter was very brief, but he could feel Zabuza's warmth and care.

He knew that Zabuza's departure was for his own good, so that he could grow better and integrate better into his family.

I have been wavering and hesitating between my family and Zabuza, and I don't know how to choose.

Now, Zabuza has made the choice for him.

"Master Zabuza...I will definitely not let you down!"

"I will become the strongest person in our Snow Crystal Village!"

Zabuza left, and the news of the invasion of the parallel universe became known to everyone and became a hot topic.

Newspapers and news about parallel universes have become a hot topic among people.

Just when Bai thought that he would not be able to hear any news about Zabuza in the short term, a piece of news made his heart tremble.

"According to the latest news from the Imperial Daily, Mr. Zabuza Momochi from the Water Province is the first visitor from the parallel universe. He will volunteer to lead the ninja army of the Water Province to Ninja World No. 64. He has issued a military order that once the cross-border passage is opened, the Water Kingdom will be conquered within ten days!"
