Shu Ze's mood was a little excited, although he couldn't 'get there in one step' like Naruto with his plot armor.

However, he was truly advancing one step at a time. In the future, he would inevitably be able to do what Naruto did, and even be more ruthless than Naruto!

"After all, some changes have occurred in me."

Touching his forehead, Shu Ze was immediately speechless. A small bump had bulged on his forehead.

This situation really made Shu Ze consider for the first time whether he was growing a horn!

"But, I don't seem to have any Ōtsutsuki bloodline, so what's going on?"

Shu Ze was a little puzzled. The Ōtsutsuki bloodline mainly revolved around the Senju, Hyūga, Uchiha, Uzumaki, and the most likely Kaguya (Kaguya) clans.

Other bloodline limits were mainly based on chakra transformations, while these families all possessed special bloodlines that changed through the body.

Shu Ze had understood this point very early on.

But slowly, he suddenly realized a problem!

"Chakra!"

The ninja world originally didn't have chakra at all. It was because of the Divine Tree and the actions of the Sage of Six Paths that the ninja world had this unique power.

So strictly speaking, the root of all chakra in the ninja world is actually Ōtsutsuki Kaguya!

"So, after she was rescued by Black Zetsu, the first thing she did was absorb the chakra of the entire ninja world, which was actually recovering her own power."

Recalling the information in his mind, Shu Ze couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"So, although I am walking the path of chakra fusion, am I essentially being contaminated by the power of the Ōtsutsuki?"

Gently touching his forehead, although he had also taken the path of improving his own physical fitness and constantly evolving himself.

But the power of chakra fusion had already penetrated deep into his bloodline, so it was very likely a self-combination.

Moreover, in this world, it is impossible not to use chakra, and once used, it will inevitably be contaminated. This made Shu Ze somewhat understand his own state.

"Then am I considered an Ōtsutsuki, or..."

Shu Ze thought strangely in his heart, because he thought of another problem.

Although chakra is Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's chakra, the problem is that this chakra also seems to be fused with the chakra of the Divine Tree fruit.

Which category does his current situation belong to? He himself was a little unsure.

After all, he also accidentally discovered a very interesting thing.

He found that the 'horn' on his forehead seemed to be a special materialization of chakra.

Beneath it, a special force was constantly being nurtured!

He was just not sure whether these forces were temporarily condensed and would eventually be fed back to the whole body.

Or like Uchiha Madara, directly break off the 'horn' and a new eye would appear!

"This strange world is really peculiar, but it doesn't seem to be a bad thing for me."

Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, it had been some time since Naruto and the others returned to the village.

The summer breeze blew, making the entire Konoha seem incredibly warm.

As the season of midsummer gradually approached, Konoha Village became lively without realizing it.

It was as if overnight, the village had more outsiders.

It's just that compared to Konoha's huge population base, the number of these people was almost negligible.

At most, it just made people discover that there seemed to be many foreign ninjas in strange clothes in the village.

"Hmph, they say they are allies, but as a result, even with Teacher Maki personally taking action, we still have to go through this kind of review."

Outside Konoha's gate, a group of ninjas wearing brown clothes were queuing up.

In the crowd, a young man wearing black clothes, with heavy oil paint on his face, and carrying a mysterious puppet on his back couldn't help but complain in a low voice.

"Kankuro, say a few less words. This is Konoha after all."

A blonde girl wearing white clothes with a huge folding fan on her back couldn't help but remind him.

Just looking at the crowd queuing in front, she also felt a little headache. There were too many people, right?

"Tch!"

The young Kankuro snorted coldly, and seemed to want to say something more, but when he saw a red-haired boy beside him, he immediately didn't dare to talk nonsense.

Obviously, the three of them were Rasa's three children, Temari, Kankuro, and Gaara!

"Sorry for the wait."

Seemingly sensing that they were getting a little impatient waiting, after ten minutes, Maki came back with the pass.

"The procedures have been completed. We can prepare to go in."

"Teacher Maki, Konoha is really slow enough."

Kankuro couldn't help but say unhappily again, which made Maki shake his head.

"It's already fast enough. It's only been more than half an hour. If it were our village, it would only be more careful and specific in the review."

Although Maki also felt it was slow, he didn't have too many complaints.

Although Sunagakure and Konoha were allies, as a Jōnin of the village, he still knew a lot of unknown things.

Their alliance is by no means as close as outsiders imagine, and because of some special things, only a small number of people are close.

"Okay, let's not talk about these things, let's prepare and go in."

"Yes."

Kankuro nodded immediately, but then he tiptoed and looked into Konoha's gate.

"Teacher Maki, I heard that Lady Yekura has been staying in Konoha all these years, why doesn't it seem like she's coming to pick us up."

"..."

Speaking of Yekura, Maki's body suddenly stiffened slightly. This name has a different meaning in Sunagakure.

Maki couldn't help but sigh. The struggles of the higher-ups were not something he, a Jōnin, could easily interfere with, especially when it involved the Kage.

"Maybe there are other things to do. After we go in and understand the situation, let's pay a visit."

Although he was a little hesitant, Maki still said this. After all, they had carried out missions together in Kirigakure back then.

Even that time, he was just a complete bystander.

Moreover, this mission is not a simple one. If we had Yakura's help, things might be much better.

"Okay!"

Kankuro doesn't know about these messy things. Although he is wary of Gaara's sudden outbursts, Yakura is a legend of the village!

He grew up listening to Yakura's stories, knowing that Yakura had done a lot of things, even solving the village's water problem.

Although the village seems to rarely mention her these years, there are still countless ninjas who talk about her in private. Kankuro has been longing to meet her for a long time.

Especially being able to fight alongside such a legend, that feeling...

When everyone was ready, the Sand Village ninjas entered the Hidden Leaf Village.

The Hidden Leaf Village and the Sand Village are completely different concepts. The Sand Village always gives people the feeling of drought and desolation, while the Hidden Leaf Village always gives people a feeling of vitality.

The people here seem to be always full of enthusiasm. Even at the entrance of the village, there is still laughter everywhere.

"It's really not bad."

Kankuro couldn't help but mutter, but Gaara snorted coldly beside him.

"Hmph!"

Gaara looked coldly at everything around him, his voice full of coldness.

"Stop saying these useless things, these things are meaningless to me!"

"Meaningless to you? That's because your village is not good enough, right?"

However, just as Gaara's voice fell, another voice came.

Hearing this voice, Maki and Gaara and others immediately turned to the side.

Soon, they saw a young ninja in black, wearing a robe similar to the Hokage's robe, with combat uniforms inside, walking over not far away.

He wore a forehead protector, had fair skin, and his unique temperament made him unforgettable at a glance.

"It's you..."

The moment Maki saw this person, his face suddenly became a little gloomy, and a hint of fear appeared in his eyes.

Shizawa Shihara, this is an extremely terrifying man!

However, he quickly forced himself to calm down, and looked at the person in front of him and said somewhat respectfully.

"I didn't expect to meet you here. Although many years have passed since we parted in the Land of Water, I will never forget your kindness."

"Is that so?"

Shizawa raised his eyebrows, and he looked at Maki with some amusement.

"Speaking of which, I heard that you have been promoted in the past few years. Now you are the special advisor of the Sand Village, and also the Jonin instructor of the Kazekage's son."

"Those are just empty names. Besides, Your Excellency is now the Hokage's assistant, which is even more unattainable."

Maki immediately shook his head. Although he has indeed achieved some achievements in these years, it is really far from being comparable to the person in front of him.

"Okay, go in early. Do you need me to find someone to lead you?"

Shizawa looked at the time, then looked at Maki with amusement and asked, and Maki immediately shook his head.

"No need, someone has already led us, thank you, Your Excellency."

"That's good."

Shizawa nodded, then nodded slightly to the Chunin who led them in, and then ignored them.

The Hidden Leaf Village does need to receive the people from the Sand Village, but they have received news in advance that the Kazekage will come later, then according to etiquette, they will receive this Kazekage with high standards.

As for the people participating in the competition, then they naturally don't need to waste too much energy. The Hidden Leaf Village has enough ninjas to take charge.

Besides, according to the principle of equal status, these people are not qualified for Shizawa to receive them!

"Teacher Maki, who is that guy?"

After walking a long distance away, Kankuro couldn't help but look back at Shizawa before asking in a low voice.

And his question also attracted the attention of Temari and Gaara, which made Maki's face a little bitter.

"This person is Shizawa Shihara, who can be said to be one of the most powerful people in the Hidden Leaf Village!"

"That newly appointed Hokage assistant? So young?"

Temari couldn't help but exclaim when she heard this. Shizawa's youth is visible to the naked eye, especially Shizawa's life seems to be locked.

Looking at it at a glance, it feels like he is only a few years older than Temari and the others. Such a person is actually the Hokage's assistant of the Hidden Leaf Village?

"Don't be fooled by his appearance, the things he has done are probably beyond your imagination for a lifetime."

Maki didn't really want to talk about Shizawa's affairs, but he felt that it seemed necessary to give these little guys a precautionary measure in advance.

After thinking for a moment, he could only say it simply.

"Several years ago, Yakura and I went to the Hidden Mist to carry out a mission, and were ambushed by the Hidden Mist midway. He led the team to save me.

Then they joined forces with the Hidden Mist's elder, Yuanshi, to carry out the mission of overthrowing the Fourth Mizukage.

Later, I learned that the Fourth Mizukage was controlled, but no one relaxed that night. He almost single-handedly caused the Hidden Mist to collapse!

In addition to this, there are also eye-catching missions such as capturing the Fourth Raikage, breaking through the Grass Hidden Village, and so on. This guy is not simple at all."

Maki almost said about Chiyo and Ebizo being captured, but fortunately, he stopped talking in the end.

What's more, in addition to these things, there is also a very bad record about Shizawa.

He broke the Sand Village's conspiracy, saved Yakura, but made the Sand Village and even the Kazekage fall into an extremely passive situation.

And now, the almost irreconcilable contradiction between the Kazekage and Yakura, there has always been this guy's shadow behind it...

"Is he that powerful?"

Temari and Kankuro couldn't help but show astonishment on their faces when they heard what Maki said.
