From undercover in Konoha, to I am the Hokage!

Chapter 177 Tiamat Jinchuriki (5k)

The phoenix trees are golden and the maple leaves are like fire.

The light autumn means that the area that was filled with lush green leaves some time ago is now covered with a light glow.

The weather is also getting cooler.

At this time, some time had passed since Lady Tsunade ascended to the position of Hokage.

Konoha Village, which had been under the coordination of the "Whole Group" for quite some time, quickly accepted the fact that Tsunade became the Fourth Hokage with almost no obstacles. The village, which was in urgent need of recuperation after the war, completely turned to economic development, and the new city of Konoha in the distance changed day by day.

However, there are still many things that have not changed.

Sawara Kiri changed into a dark robe and stood at the door of Senju's house. He looked quite hesitant, and after hesitating for a while, he finally pushed open the door.

As expected, as soon as I entered the door, I heard someone jogging out from the inner room. When the door was pushed open, the girl gradually slowed down her pace. The girl pretended to be calm, with a tone of seemingly teasing resentment in her voice:

"Ah? Lord Sawara Kiri actually came home for dinner today?"

"There is no 'mission' to do today?"

Fourteen-year-old girls are in the stage of growing up. Sahara Yukie, who was originally just as tall as his chest and still looked like a young child, grew taller every once in a while, just like the Konoha New Castle in the distance.

Now, just standing there, she looked quite graceful. Only her wet hands, which were wiping on the apron in front of her, and her long hair, which was simply tied up for the convenience of cooking, brought her a real sense of life. There were a few water droplets on her fair little face - it was obvious that she had just heard the noise outside and had trotted over, and she didn't have time to wipe them clean.

Of course, what Sawara Kiri was most familiar with was Miss Xuee's mocking voice.

"When it comes to missions, the timing is always unpredictable."

However, even under his sister's disdainful gaze, Sahara Kiri had to bite the bullet and pretend to explain: "Recently, more and more people have nominated me, and occasionally I have to go to the Land of Lightning, so it's inevitable that there will be some minor problems along the way."

"By the way, what did Yukie do tonight?"

"I was planning to eat outside, but when I saw the smoke rising from the kitchen, I immediately ran back!"

"We've only eaten dry food along the way. I haven't tasted Xuehui's cooking for a long time. I'm a little hungry."

"is it?"

Miss Xuehui glanced at him and noticed that his clothes and bag were indeed stained with dust. She reluctantly let him pass and turned to walk towards the house: "I stewed fish soup tonight, as well as bean sprouts and veal. Go wash your hands and face first."

"Yes Yes."

Sawara Kiri sighed inwardly, Xuehui was becoming increasingly difficult to deal with.

Rebellion period?

However, he still listened obediently, put down the package on the eaves beside the entrance, and walked towards the bathroom.

"Master Fog!"

As he was walking inside, he saw a chubby girl who looked like a little ball running out of the house, rushing towards him with her two short legs.

"Shizune!"

Sawara Kiri was about to hug her, but Shizune had only run halfway when Ms. Xuehui, who was passing by, grabbed her by the scruff of the neck and walked towards the back of the room, scolding her as she walked:
"Shizune! I just cleaned you up and you're covered in dust again!"

"Why are you concerned about that idiot Wu? He's having a comfortable time out there!"

“Woo-woo-woo—”

Sawara Kiri's expression suddenly froze and turned gray.

Yukie Sahara glanced in his direction, her eyes paused, but in the end she showed no mercy and snorted softly.

In fact, it's not Miss Xuehui's fault for acting this way. She has a criminal record and has been caught before.

After his relationship with Yayoi took a step further, Sawara Kiri felt rather reluctant to leave his home during the initial period, often staying away from home for days and nights.

Because many of their skills could not be used at Yayoi's house and Yayoi's mother's sleep was also greatly disturbed, the wealthy Miss Yayoi simply bought another house in the center of the village. The two top fighters of Konoha stayed at home all day long, engaging in gunfire and rain of bullets, and the fight was so fierce.

Only after the initial honeymoon period was almost over and the stock that Mr. Sawara had accumulated over the years was barely consumed, did the war gradually enter a period of easing - at least the frequency of fighting gradually eased, so as to avoid exhausting the resources.

However, Sawara Kiri was locked up at home by Miss Yayoi, playing some cute games day and night, which inevitably neglected her family.

At first, Miss Xuehui didn't notice anything. After all, it was very common for ninjas to stay outside the village for several days and nights.

But later, Xue Hui suddenly realized that her brother seemed to be going out on missions too often - even though the village had just ended the war and there were many requests from various caravans, he should have a balance between work and rest.

Tsunade knew all about his affairs, but she had just become the Fourth Hokage not long ago, and she had a lot of things to do, so she had less time to go home than him. Moreover, the temper of the Princess of Konoha was well known, and she had no time to deal with this stinky disciple.

Until one day, perhaps because he was really annoyed by Yukie, he intentionally or unintentionally placed the crystal ball that Sarutobi teacher had used on his desk.

Hey, I just happened to catch someone shopping.

Only then was Miss Xuehui discovered the 'truth'.

Until now, Sawara Kiri still remembers the tragic scene at that time - it was like thunder and lightning striking the earth, and ghosts and gods were crying and wailing in fear. They blocked the door of Yayoi's new home and had a quarrel with her. It was quite like a wife catching her husband cheating on her on the spot, and she almost had a fight with Yayoi's "mistress". Yukie was so angry at that time that half of the new house was demolished.

However, perhaps due to her "majority" or her "dominant position", Yayoi's reaction was quite gentle compared to her previous tough behavior - she did not take this "sister" seriously at all.

Later, I was too lazy to even build a new house, so I just bought a newer one in the new city.

As a result, Xuehui couldn’t even catch any trace of the person now.

Since then, whenever Sawara Kiri went out and didn't come home overnight, Xue Huimo would think he was cheating. If he didn't come home for several days, he would definitely be scolded when he came back - damn it! He was clearly doing missions at least one-third of the time!
The road to being a scumbag is long and difficult.

I'll coax her back later.

Sahara Kiri soaked her whole body in the bathtub, splashing water on her face while thinking in her heart.

He was indeed a little tired after following the caravan to the Land of Hot Springs and back again. Since the end of the war, his reputation had gradually spread throughout the ninja world, and more and more chambers of commerce had nominated him for special projects.

Most of them could be turned down, but there was still a small number who were very powerful or had extensive connections, and it was difficult for him to turn down those offers.

Before the independent economic system of the ninja world is established, he is still a ninja who makes a living by completing missions.

but
"There really isn't a suitable 'bond'."

Sawara Kiri looked at the panel information that was gradually increasing, as well as the heart knot points that were still lying alone on it, and sighed softly.

Ever since he learned about his future death, he has spent a lot of time looking for a suitable bond. He even traveled across half of the ninja world for this purpose. He also tried to become friends with many people and help them solve their problems.

However, I don't know if it's because he's too strong, or because those so-called "troubles" are not difficult for him at all, but he has indeed made a lot of favors, but the bond objects on the panel are still motionless, and there is no place for the knot points.

At the same time, judging by the people he already has a bond with, the 'minimum strength requirement' needed to form a bond with him is obviously getting higher and higher.

"There's no other way, just use it up in time." Sawara Kiri sighed softly.

His eyes swept over "Talents", "Abilities" and "Items" one by one, choosing to cast a wide net to catch more fish.

"My dream is——the sea of ​​stars!!"

Sister Tongzi's familiar accent sounded in my ears, and brilliant lights flashed rapidly on the lottery interface.

"Four Souls Jade (A)"

"Evil Standing Stick (B)"

"Inherent Time Control (A)"

"Tiamat - Projection - Growth Type (SS)"

"."

Just as Sawara Kiri habitually glanced at the screen and was about to continue to draw out the last shot, his eyes suddenly paused at the last column.

"Um?!!"

It was not until the next moment that the belated rainbow light on the screen came into his eyes, causing him to half-squint.

However, his eyes remained fixed on the screen, motionless.

"Crash!!"

Sawara Kiri lost control and suddenly stood up from the bathtub, making a loud splash.

"fog?"

As if she heard the sound coming from the bathtub in the backyard, Xuehui poked her little head inside in confusion.

"Wow—"

Sahara Kiri once again covered his vital parts and sat back down, controlling his facial expression with difficulty, but still turned his head stiffly:

"Ah, it's okay."

"It looks like a rabbit ran over."

"Ok?"

Miss Xuehui frowned, with no intention of being shy. She stuck half of her body out with a look of vigilance, and carefully scanned the area around the bathtub to make sure that there was no stench from the Uchiha family. Then she hesitantly shrank her body back.

After a while, she suddenly appeared again, as if she wanted to scare him. After making sure that the bad woman Uchiha Yayoi had not come, she snorted softly and went back to the kitchen.

"call"

Sawara Kiri let out a slow breath.

It wasn't that he was scared by Xue Hui, but he was scared by the system.

"SS?"

"Tiamat?"

He widened his eyes and confirmed the level again, then stared at the "special ability" item, staring at it for a long time, and the boiling emotions in his heart finally calmed down. He looked awkward, wanting to laugh but not daring to make a sound.

This was the first time he had drawn an "ability" of this level.

Calming down a little, Sawara Kiri clicked on the details column.

"Gaining ability"

"Tiamat, Projection, Growth, Stage 1 (SS)"

"Information localization has been completed"

"Details: One of the seven evils of humanity, a beast that holds the principle of 'return', one of the supreme gods in Mesopotamian mythology, the mother goddess of creation whose body became the heaven and earth - a tiny projection left in the divided world. Now, under the restrictions of the world's rules, it has descended here in the form of a 'tailed beast'."

"This ability comes from the "FGO" series."

「Consume Heart Points to increase」

(Humanoid↑)

(Beast type ↑)

Looking at this line of explanation, Sawara Kiri couldn't help but clench his fists.

Although there is still a series of small words after the name of "Tiamat", it is still a real SS-level reward.

If I remember correctly, the real body of this deity seems to be as big as a planet - the projection alone, which has been weakened countless times, is already SS-level. What level of monster is this complete body?

However, I'm afraid that just like the previous "Unlimited Technique", I will have to spend a lot of heart points to upgrade her level.

What caught Sawara Kiri's attention even more was the following explanation.

"——Descended here in the form of a 'tailed beast'."

Does this mean that He can also make himself a Jinchūriki?
If you can master this kind of power, then why would you be afraid of Otsutsuki? Wouldn't it be a piece of cake to just attack him in his hometown?
Excited heart, trembling hands.

Sawara Kiri quietly looked at the line of words that appeared on the panel and clicked lightly.

next moment.

"thump."

A huge egg suddenly emerged from his arms.

"???"

Sahara Kiri was stunned.

Oh.

This is called growth type?
At this moment, he suddenly felt fortunate that he did not choose any growth rewards when he was at Yayoi's house.

But now that it has come to this, we have to pry it open and see whether it is a mule or a horse, right?
Although Sawara Kiri had a bad feeling, he still resolutely chose to add the last knot of the heart to the panel.

"Tiamat: First Stage → Second Stage"

Almost in an instant, the giant egg, which was as warm and hard as stone just now, slowly cracked into fine cracks in Sawara Kiri's arms. An unusual fragrance emanated from the inside of the eggshell, accompanied by a slight "gurgling" sound, as if something was constantly moving inside.

"Click."

When the eggshell at the top was pushed open by something, a crisp cracking sound was heard from inside.

"Plop!"

Soon after, a tiny creature with two large blue horns on its sides emerged from the giant egg.

The pink eyes dotted with crosses were staring straight at him, and the pair of pink little hands were still holding the eggshell, chewing it instinctively, just like chewing potato chips, without any fear of strangers at all.

She was a little girl who looked only three or four years old. Her fair body was covered with scales like a gauze skirt, her eyebrows were short and thick, and there was clear egg liquid on her face, which made her cheeks look pink and smooth. Her long little canine teeth were exposed outside her lips as she gnawed on the eggshell. Her pointed ears swayed as she bit the eggshell, and her small body drilled out of the eggshell like a caterpillar until it pounced on him.

Then he turned over naturally, skillfully pressed him underneath as if he were a big bed, and continued to crunch the eggshells.

That's not at all polite.

Sawara Kiri lowered his head and looked at Him in astonishment.

This is the only SS-level reward?
Was it all in vain?

(Figure 3↑)
Although he can understand that the growth type is a mini version, isn’t this a bit too mini?
When will this little guy be able to fight against Otsutsuki?
As if she had noticed his doubts, Sister Tongzi muttered in annoyance.

"It's good to have one! From S-rank and above, you have to raise them yourself, otherwise the world lines would have collapsed long ago."

Upon hearing this, Sawara Kiri was stunned.

Another key word was captured.

Could the various rewards he drew have a direct impact on the survival of the world line?
"What is the normal world line like?" Sahara Kiri asked tentatively.

However, as if she realized that she had accidentally said something she shouldn't have, Sister Tongzi did not press the issue and kept her mouth shut.

Seeing this, Sawara Kiri didn't ask any more questions.

When she is not crazy, Sister Tongzi keeps her mouth shut.

Just as Sawara Kiri was thinking about where to get more heart nodes so that she could raise this little guy to a usable level, a series of footsteps were heard in the room behind her.

Miss Xuehui still poked her head out in displeasure and said dissatisfiedly: "Fog! Stop playing with water, and come out of here quickly after washing the child?!"

Yukie Sahara's face suddenly turned pale.

Sawara Kiri subconsciously pushed Xiao Xiaoti into the water, but he never expected that this tiny little guy was incredibly strong. He managed to push his arm and stick his head out of the water. The struggle caused waves of water splashing. His pair of pink cross-shaped eyes stared straight in the direction of Xuehui again, with a piece of eggshell in his mouth. His pointed ears twitched rapidly, and he stretched out a short hand towards her.

"Goo!"

She even said hello.

When she noticed the abnormalities of this little guy (huge horns, pointed ears, cross-shaped eyes), Miss Yukie, who had thought that Wu and that bad woman had a baby quickly, suddenly realized that there was not enough time.

And this little guy is obviously not an ordinary person.

After calming down, Ms. Xuehui's sharp gaze immediately fell on Sawara Kiri:
"Where did it come from?!"

Sahara Kiri said seriously, "I picked it up! After I defeated the evil organization, I found one of the surviving underground experimental subjects. I felt sorry for her, so I secretly brought her home. I just wanted to wash her."

"Clatter, crash, crash -"

Xiao Xiaoti was obviously unwilling. He bit the eggshell and made a noise, while kicking his legs and splashing water on his face.

It was obviously drawn!

Hearing this, Xue Hui obviously believed it. Her tense face relaxed a little. She complained to him in a low voice: "I didn't stop you from raising a child. Why did you bring her in secretly? Why didn't you just tell me? Jingyin also has a little friend. Where did you put her just now?"

As she spoke, she walked closer and wanted to help Wu pick up the little guy and wash him.

However, after just taking a few steps in, Xiao Xiaoti, who had just been looking at him from afar and was full of energy, suddenly became a little timid for some reason.

He didn't even say hello. After Xuehui approached, he suddenly shrank into Sawara Kiri's arms and instantly melted into his body like ink melting into water, and disappeared abruptly.

The two people on both sides of the pool were stunned.

Sawara Kiri stared blankly.

Is this what they call "coming in the form of a 'tailed beast'"?
Xuehui looked at her brother in surprise.

Sahara Kiri's reaction was a bit faster, and he said solemnly: "Look, what a strange bloodline limit, it's innate. That's how I brought it in just now."

Miss Xue Hui stared at him straight in silence for a long while. Suddenly, she sighed as if she had long been accustomed to these little secrets of her brother, and said helplessly:

"Hurry up and wash, the meal is ready."

"If it's cold, I won't wait for you."

"."

"Yes~"
