Konoha: I, Ninja War Sakura, rely entirely on skills!

Chapter 281 The Wind Rises
夜

The moon is bright and high in the sky, the sea breeze is blowing gently, and the waves are washing the rocks again and again.

Sakura and Yukito appeared at the beach without any warning.

Sakura looked at her sister who was still asleep in her arms, and her brows finally softened a little.

Then he walked towards the depths of Turtle Island with the future in his arms, and Yu Muren followed silently behind him.

During her trip to Myoboku Mountain, she seemed to have vaguely come into contact with the truth behind this world.

The Sage of Six Paths, the Otsutsuki clan, and the enemies that will arrive in the Ninja World soon.

To face an enemy of that level, even the Sage of Six Paths would have to plan for a thousand years and muster all the strength he could.

Compared with these, the fighting and killing in the ninja world suddenly seemed like playing house.

and……

Yukito, who was following behind Sakura, fixed his eyes on the pink figure.

The other party seemed to have known all this for a long time and was working hard for it.

"Why did you choose to reject the power given by the Sage of Six Paths?"

The wooden man's voice rang out in the quiet night.

Sakura was not surprised by this. The power bestowed by the Sage of Six Paths was like pie in the sky.

After all, if you don't make money, you're a bastard.

This principle is also universal.

"After accepting the old man's power and experiencing his power, I will inevitably deviate towards his path."

Yukito was slightly surprised by what Sakura said.

This guy……

"Do you think you can surpass the Sage of Six Paths?"

“It’s impossible to do that.”

Yukito already clearly understood Sakura's heart.

The other party actually wanted to surpass that existence which spanned a thousand years and was longer than the history of ninja.

"why not?"

Sakura asked without turning around.

This left Yu Muren speechless for a moment.

Is the Immortal of Six Paths strong?

Very strong.

Even stronger than Kaguya Ōtsutsuki.

The opponent didn't even make a move. The Yin and Yang powers given to Naruto and Sasuke alone were enough to seal Kaguya Otsutsuki.

In the original work, he did not choose to do it himself, most likely because he was too ashamed to face Kaguya.

Face your mother.

At this moment, Yukito suddenly stopped, looked at Sakura and said:
"You are very ambitious."

Yes, I want to surpass the Six Paths Sage.

Isn’t this kind of goal just ambition?
"Yeah."

Sakura didn't say much.

The two walked on the island and soon returned to their temporary residence.

There were several tents set up here, and faint snoring sounds could be heard from Naruto's tent, obviously he had fallen asleep a long time ago.

Sakura placed the future in her tent, then she summoned a ninja hawk and wrote a letter home, telling her parents not to worry about the future, as it was now with her.

With a shake of his hand at any time, the ninja eagle would flutter into the darkness.

After a busy day, Sakura sat beside the dying fire and picked up some firewood and threw it in.

The flames jumped up again.

And Yukito also sat quietly next to Sakura.

The atmosphere seemed to become quiet at this moment.

"Where did you go?"

The door curtain of a tent was opened, and a man in pajamas wearing a coat was looking at the two people sitting by the fire.

"Go pick up the future."

Sakura briefly recounted what happened at Myoboku Mountain.

If we have to face the Otsutsuki clan in the future, if nothing unexpected happens, Guang will be a member of the main force.

"That's it..."

Guang scratched his head, feeling a little troubled.

After all, I have been buried underground for so many years. How come it feels like we have jumped from the Warring States Period when people were slashing each other with knives to fighting aliens?

"These things will be faced in the future. The main purpose now is to deal with the current situation."

Throwing another piece of wood into the fire, Sakura continued speaking as she felt the chakra slowly recovering in her body:
"How long will it take for Sasuke and Karin to arrive now?"

Guang responded: "Probably tomorrow morning."

Sakura said, "Then wait for these two to arrive at Kame Island and solve Naruto's Nine-Tails Chakra problem within three days."

"Three days?"

"Is it too hasty?"

Yumujin frowned.

Even though the Two-Tails was quite easy to talk to, it still took her a year to become a perfect Jinchūriki.

Although it was planned in advance that Naruto would simply master the Nine-Tails Chakra and not master the perfect Jinchūriki, but in these three days...

"Akatsuki is ready to take action."

"No time to wait here Naruto."

"It would be best if you can complete it. If you can't, Naruto will have to stay in Konoha."

Sakura stared at the fire, watching the flickering flames.

"That's...ok."

To be honest, Yu Muren didn't hate the golden-haired boy.

The golden-haired boy gave her the feeling that he was quite similar to Kirabi.

Inside the tent, the sleeping boy had opened his eyes without anyone noticing.

-

At this moment, Black Zetsu immediately began to act.

White Zetsu, who is omnipresent and has extremely advanced transformation skills, can easily infiltrate the nobles of various countries.

The capital of the Land of Water, Daimyofu
"what?"

"Are you sure this is true?"

The man in the aqua blue brocade robe frowned as he looked at his confidant beside him.

“It’s not certain to be true.”

The confidants around him lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at the distinguished lord in front of them, and spoke respectfully and politely:
"But the death of the last daimyo of the Land of Fire was too strange."

"The Fire Country capital is so far away from Takigakure."

"How did the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki cross the Fire Country's border defenses and suddenly go crazy and rampage in the Fire Country's capital."

"And what a coincidence that it was the day before Shimura Danzo became Hokage."

"And at this important moment, why did that Haruno Sakura go to the capital instead of staying in Konoha?"

The confidant raised his head and looked directly at the Daimyo of the Land of Water, whose expression had begun to look grim.

"The situation at that time was that Shimura Danzo's position as Hokage was already set in stone, and the Seven-Tails attacked the Daimyo's mansion."

"In the end, one person actually survived."

"Moreover, this person is the most mediocre and incompetent offspring of the previous Fire Country Daimyo."

"It is only natural for Haruno Sakura to support this heir to ascend to the daimyo position."

"Your Highness, don't you think this is too strange?"

The Daimyo of the Land of Water was frowning tightly at this moment.

Just as this confidant said, it's too strange.

If Haruno Sakura was only supporting the daimyo to achieve the position of Hokage, he would not bother with this trivial matter.

But what if he assassinated the daimyo as a ninja and then supported the daimyo's son to become Hokage?

This……

"Send Ryuze to Konoha, and use the excuse that he is in memory of the previous Daimyo and that he and the current Daimyo are twelve years old and can get engaged, to get close to the current Daimyo of the Fire Country and find out the truth."

"Let's see if we can get any information out of this little famous person."

The Daimyo of the Land of Water did not choose to blindly listen to the words of his confidants, but instead sent people to the capital of the Land of Fire, now Konoha, to inquire about the news.

"Uh, that little Daimyo may have fallen into the hands of the Hokage."

"Moreover, the other party's..."

The confidant was a little hesitant.

After all, the current Daimyo of the Fire Nation's abilities are really not that good.

It was a bit tricky to get words out of him.

And it is very likely that the record of the conversation between this daimyo and Ryuze will appear on the Hokage's desk afterwards.

"Why, does the fiancée need the Hokage's approval to meet her fiancé?"

"and……"

The Daimyo of the Land of Water gave his cronies a cold look.

Even the most useless daimyo is still a royal family, and grew up in the midst of the intrigues that are everywhere.

idiot?

That's for ordinary people.

As a man, if he didn't have any brains, he would have accidentally fallen off a horse and died when he was a child.

"Yes."

The confidant said nothing more, but prepared to bow and leave.

"slow."

The daimyo suddenly spoke again and called out to his confidant.

"Tell those people from Kirigakure to stop attacking Yuegakure."

If the Hokage's assassination of the Daimyo is true, then any power at all must be in hand.

If a large number of ninjas from the Land of Water and the Land of Rain were to die simply because of the death of one Mizukage, then they would undoubtedly be cutting off one's own arm when facing Konoha in the future.

Therefore, at this moment, ceasefire is the best option.

"Um...will the Kirigakure people agree?"

The confidant was a little hesitant.

"Just a Mizukage, aren't there enough Kages who died in the Ninja War?"

"That's it."

The Daimyo of the Land of Water shook his hand.

"As ordered."

"Your Majesty, please retire."

To the Daimyo of the Land of Water, what do Mizukage and Tailed Beasts mean?
Hashirama Senju captured the tailed beast decades ago, so what can the so-called Akatsuki do now if it wants to capture the tailed beast?

As for the shadow, it doesn’t matter at all.

How many Kage died in the First, Second, Third, and Fourth Ninja World War?
how?

Those Kages can die, but the Fifth Mizukage alone cannot die?

He needed to make sure that the interests of the nobility he represented would not be violated in any way.

Not even a tiny bit.

What's more, it was an absurd thing like assassinating a daimyo, which had never happened in a thousand years.

The daimyo must be high above, and the nobles must rule the world.

This is his philosophy.

And similar things don't just happen in the Water Kingdom.

The same is true for the Kingdom of Wind, the Kingdom of Earth, the Kingdom of Thunder, and even small countries such as the Kingdom of Birds, the Kingdom of Taki, and the Kingdom of Bears.

Just as Senju Tobirama said at the beginning.

Although there seemed to be constant wars between countries, the nobles of each country were indeed closely related and had frequent in-laws.

Even the constant wars between ninjas were deliberately provoked by the nobles to prevent the number of ninjas from becoming too large and causing them to be cut by the sharp knife.

next day
As the sky gradually brightened, Future opened his eyes in a daze.

I slept for too long.

She just twisted her body and felt herself in a familiar and warm embrace.

"elder sister!"

When he looked up and saw a familiar face, the future couldn't help but feel happy.

Although I don’t know why I slept next to my sister, it doesn’t matter for the future.

"are you awake?"

Sakura felt the little one in her arms and opened her eyes dazedly.

She hasn't recovered from the massive consumption of chakra.

"Ok!"

The pink-haired girl hugged Sakura's neck and nuzzled into her affectionately.

My sister smells so good!

Looking at Future hanging on her like a koala, Sakura could only hold her in her arms and try to let her sleep a little longer so that she could also take a rest.

But the future, which had been sleeping for a long time, obviously had no intention of continuing to sleep.

"Sister, get up quickly, I'm hungry."

Looking at Sakura who wanted to continue sleeping, Mirai couldn't help but rub her head against Sakura's chin, wanting Sakura to get up and play with her.

"Hi hi hi."

With no other options, Sakura could only put on her clothes and prepare to go find food for the future.

And the future also put on her clothes very skillfully.

Mirai is already three years old, and just like Sakura, she has shown an independent character at a very young age, and adults don't need to worry about these trivial matters.

Holding Mirai's hand, Sakura walked out of the warm tent.

As soon as I went out, I saw a familiar figure.

"Naruto-nii!"

When Mirai saw Naruto, her eyes lit up and she let go of Sakura's hand and moved closer.

"Eh?"

"It's Little Future."

Naruto saw Mirai was stunned for a moment, then he squatted down and touched Mirai's head, then looked at Sakura and smiled:

"Morning, Sakura."

"morning."

Sakura responded.

"Naruto-nii, what are you doing? You look so awesome!"

Mirai looked at the pot that Naruto had placed on the fire, which was still bubbling with steam.

“This is for breakfast for everyone.”

"You can try my cooking later."

Naruto looked at the little girl in front of him with a warm smile.

He saw the old Sakura in this child.

It’s just that when Sakura was little, she was always studying and didn’t look like a girl at all.

Through the lively pink girl in front of him, he seemed to see Sakura with another personality.

"Wow, that's amazing!"

Mirai wanted to open the lid, but Naruto grabbed her and said like an adult:

"Be careful not to get burned."

"Children should not get too close to the fire."

Naruto pointed to the rising flames under the pot.

"Hi!"

"As expected of you, Naruto-nii-san! You really know a lot!"

"I'm going to eat a big bowl of this later!"

"No, it's three big bowls!"

When Mirai heard this, her emerald eyes, which were exactly the same as Sakura's, suddenly sparkled with admiration.

"Hahahaha!"

"Really!"

"Don't eat too much, or you might upset your stomach!"

Naruto laughed and scratched his head when he heard that.

"It seems like your sister likes this boy very much."

At some point, Guang appeared next to Sakura.

"After all, Mirai and Naruto are somewhat similar."

Sakura didn't care.

Judging from this lively personality, Mirai is indeed very similar to Naruto.

It's normal for these two people to get along well when they get together.

After all, both Naruto and Mirai can provide plenty of emotional value to others.

"I'm going to go wash up, Naruto, you take Mirai first."

Sakura waved towards Naruto.

"Yeah, yeah, go ahead and don't worry."

"Leave the future to me, it will be fine!"

Naruto smiled and patted Mirai's head.

And at this moment...

Beyond Turtle Island
Several figures appeared on the sea.

"Are the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki and the Two-Tails Jinchuriki here now?"

Payne looked at a huge island not far ahead and spoke calmly.
