Naruto: They are all reborn

Chapter 36 Medicine Master No Naiyu

root base.

"Danzo, you've been deceived."

A hint of smile appeared on Orochimaru's cold expression. It was so funny that the dignified leader of the Root was fooled by a little kid.

His smile annoyed Shimura Danzo, who retorted, "The Evil Sealing Seal can seal away chakra that doesn't belong to you. What makes you say I've been deceived?"

"You said it yourself, that's a sealing technique that will only be effective against chakra that doesn't belong to you." Orochimaru licked his lips, his expression gradually becoming excited.

"But for the test subjects, Hashirama's cells have already merged with them. How can you say that it is not their own chakra?"

Shimura Danzo snorted coldly: "Then what are you excited about?"

"Of course I'm curious," Orochimaru put down the work at hand and sat down at the table, "I know Tsunade too well. With her personality, there's no need to use the term sealing technique to prevaricate. No one can force her to say something she doesn't want to say."

"so?"

"She has a secret. The method she uses to treat Ding is a secret she cannot reveal."

"Haha, how dare you conclude that Tsunade didn't use the sealing technique?" Shimura Danzo was not interested in this so-called secret. "Besides, what does a child know? He hasn't even learned the Palm Immortal Technique yet."

Orochimaru was too lazy to say anything more. No one would believe his unfounded speculation anyway, except that fool Jiraiya.

Shimura Danzo asked again: "What about the larvae that were transplanted with Hashirama's cells?"

"Only one is still alive, but in my opinion, they are all failures. There is no need to observe them further."

"give it to me."

"It's up to you." Orochimaru shrugged. His goal had always been to transplant Hashirama's cells into himself, not to cultivate a tool that could awaken Wood Release.

……

After waking up, Shi Xu simply washed up and went to the training ground to run. The wind blew and he felt refreshed.

He had only run two laps when he saw a familiar figure, so he quickened his pace: "Hey, Kakashi, why are you free today?"

"I'm here to find you."

"Are you on a mission or do you need my help with something?"

Kakashi pulled out a scroll and handed it to him, "I've got a C-rank team mission. Are you interested in coming?"

Shi Xu opened the scroll and took a look. The client was the orphanage in Konoha Village, and the commission was to transport a batch of supplies.

The commission levels of Konoha Village are divided into four levels:
D-level missions do not require participation in combat; C-level missions involve combat but do not involve ninjas; B-level missions involve combat with ninjas and are life-threatening; and A-level missions are important missions related to the safety of the village and the country.

As for the higher S-level missions, they are critical missions that can directly determine the safety of the village and the country. They are usually carried out by ninjas assigned by the village and will not appear in the form of commissions.

Tokihiro closed the scroll and said, "I have no problem with that, but Genin need to be led by Jonin when they go on missions outside the village. Do you want me to call the teacher?"

"No, I found it."

"who is it?"

"Namikaze Minato, the jonin who has recently gained fame in the village."

Shi Xu suddenly realized something and immediately cast a curious look at him: "How did you get to know him?"

As if recalling some memories, Kakashi's eyes became complicated: "He agrees with my father's idea, so he wants to take me as his disciple." "You agreed?"

"Well, you need a jonin recommendation to take the Chunin Exam, and he's the only jonin I have access to right now."

"By the way, Kakashi, how did you manage to get enough D-rank missions?"

"Use the Shadow Clone Technique. This technique can create physical clones that can move freely. However, the disadvantage is that they will shatter at the slightest touch. It is just right for D-rank missions."

"Teach me, brother." Shi Xu said without hesitation, his face as thick as a wall of earth.

Kakashi rolled his eyes at him and rewarded him with the same treatment as Obito: "Hehe..."

The Konoha Orphanage wasn't actually inside Konoha Village, but was instead located in the forest outside. The director of the orphanage was a beautiful woman named Yakushi Nono. She was delicate, wore round-framed glasses, and had the air of a widow, making her look easy to bully.

Shi Xu couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. Is it really safe for a group of orphans and widows to stay outside Konoha Village?

Minato Namikaze was discussing the details of the mission with Yakushi Nono. When he saw Kakashi and Toki coming over, he immediately introduced them to her.

After getting closer, Toki was the first to call out, "Long time no see, Minato Jonin."

Namikaze Minato raised his hand and greeted: "Long time no see, Toki, do you remember our last agreement?"

Shi Xu hesitated for a moment. She didn't expect that he would bring it up on his own initiative. After all, the last time they met was a year ago.

"Of course, I mastered the Dragon Fire Technique a long time ago."

"Did you think I forgot?" Namikaze Minato said with a gentle smile, "I'll teach you a fire ninjutsu after this mission is completed."

"Thank you."

Tokichi and Kakashi came over to learn the details of the mission.

This matter has to start from the Second Shinobi World War. Konoha signed a ceasefire agreement with all major powers a year ago, basically ending the war in the Land of Fire, but the chaos in the entire ninja world was not completely quelled until half a year ago.

Afterwards, the Hokage submitted a report to the Daimyo, detailing all of Konoha's achievements and losses during the war. In short, the Hokage's goal was to get money for development.

After the allocation of funds, the daimyo often talked about the sacrifices of the ninjas and lamented that Konoha had a difficult life. So at a banquet some time ago, he called on the nobles to donate to Konoha Village.

Donations and grants are different.

Grants are given directly to the Hokage, who decides how to use them, while donations are given to recipients designated by the Daimyo, such as hospitals, schools, orphanages, etc.

Therefore, this C-rank mission consisted of two phases: the first was to escort Yakushi Nono to the Fire Nation capital to collect donations and supplies, and the second was to escort them back. Furthermore, since the orphanage was already financially strapped, the reward for this commission wasn't high, but no one on the team cared about that little money.

Nono clasped his hands together, bowed, and said, "Thank you very much."

As we were about to set off, Shi Xu suddenly suggested, "By the way, Dean Nono, do you want to rent a horse or a carriage?"

"Don't worry, I was a ninja myself."

"Really?" Shi Xu looked at her in surprise, "I can't tell at all."

Namikaze Minato bent down slightly and whispered in their ears: "I'll tell you a secret. Dean Nono was once a famous intelligence ninja in Konoha, known as the 'walking shrine maiden'."

Shi Xu continued, "This kind of work usually requires concealing one's identity, but it's amazing that you've managed to become famous."

Nono laughed, his voice gentle: "So I retired."
