Naruto: Uchiha is not Raikage!

Chapter 216: Returning to the village, Nohara Lin and Kakashi's deep distance (6k)

"Then let's go out first."

Qingsi turned and stepped over the broken door frame, reaching the pale yellow grass outside.

Uzumaki Karin followed behind Seiji somewhat nervously.

"Hey, what do we do with these people?"

Ringo Ayuri pointed at the three Kusagakure ninjas who were immobilized by Seiji's "Sharingan Genjutsu".

"You know."

Qingsi didn't say much.

Look out at the dense forests and rolling hills outside.

The Grass Kingdom is an important battle area in this war, responsible for hosting the battlefields of the Earth Kingdom and the Fire Kingdom.

Although it is a small country, its strength is not weak.

Among all the small countries, it is one that is closer to being a big country.

Even the Kusagakure Village in the Land of Grass has its own diplomatic affairs.

They acted as middlemen and established a prison on a small island near Kusagakure Village to detain ninjas who had committed crimes.

It can be regarded as an international prison that holds prisoners from various countries.

The small island is surrounded by the sea and is located in the sea north of Taki Country. It is named "Hidden Castle" because of the sour berries called "Hidden" that grow on the island.

The city lord has always been a clan that can control the "Sky Prison".

If "Fire Style: Heaven's Prison" is planted on him, even Naruto's chakra will be suppressed to the point where he can only use one shadow clone.

"Let's set it near the border between the Land of Grass and the Land of Water Trap."

Qingsi decided on the location of the experimental base.

Sooner or later, Qingsi will have to go to the location of "Ghost Lantern City".

"Naruto: Blood Prison" and the subsequent "Boruto: Naruto Next Generations" both continued this setting.

The greatest ambition of the Grass Country is hidden in "Hidden Ghost City". Legend has it that in the era of the Six Paths Sage, a thousand years ago, there was a "Box of Paradise" that could fulfill a wish of the person who opened it.

Kusagakure once opened it, and it is said that they were only one step away from controlling the world with it.

Then, suddenly one day, the Kusagakure Village was defeated.

Since then, two opposing forces have emerged in Kusagakure Village. One is the pro-war faction "Kusa no Mi" who want to revive Kusagakure, and the other is the anti-war faction "Kusa no Hana".

The reason why the Grass Country is so enthusiastic about establishing international prisons for various countries is, firstly, to hide the "Box of Elysium", and secondly, to use the prisoners' chakra to study ways to open the "Box of Elysium" again.

Of course, this thing actually just absorbs the person who opens it and turns them into the monster "Soh".

Even so, it is something that is very worthy of study. After all, it realizes the transformation of life form, turning a ninja with ordinary combat power into a monster that can instantly defeat Xianming.

In addition, there is the "Dragon Life Clan" in the Land of Grass, who possess a bloodline limit called "Dragon Life Reincarnation" that allows them to share their vitality with others.

This is also a good ability.

In the movie "Naruto: Blood Prison", after Senmei was killed, Ryuga used this trick to resurrect Naruto.

"Huh, you really know how to order people around."

Ringo Ayuri muttered as she emerged from the cone-shaped house.

Three lives passed away quietly there.

Uzumaki Hanari, who had excellent perception, sensed this change at the first moment, lowered her head silently, and said nothing.

When these grass ninjas return, they will not only cause trouble for her, but also for Qingsi.

"Okay, let's go somewhere else."

By the position of the sun in the sky, Seiji determined the direction, holding Uzumaki Karin with his left hand and Ringo Ayuri with his right hand.

Before the two women could react, Qingsi soared into the sky.

His whole body was flashing with lightning as he flew towards the distant sky.

Hearing the whistling in her ears, Uzumaki Karin was startled and snuggled into Qingsi's arms.

The distance below is probably several hundred meters.

Uzumaki Karin didn't dare to open her eyes and could only listen to the sound of the wind.

"He...must be a very powerful ninja."

Uzumaki Karin said secretly.

I once heard my parents say that there were very few ninjas who could fly, whether in Uzushio Village or Konoha.

If one wants to fly, one must either rely on a unique bloodline limit, or have an extraordinary amount of chakra and chakra control skills.

It is probably the most difficult technique besides space-time ninjutsu.

Compared to Uzumaki Karin's secret fear, Ringo Ayuri seemed much calmer.

She had seen Qingsi use strange things like the "Power of Monsters" and knew that Qingsi was a ninja who did not play by the rules.

"After you run out of chakra, we won't fall to our deaths."

Ringo Ayuri is not afraid of death, but she doesn't want to die so inexplicably.

"of course not."

Qingsi smiled slightly.

The white snake in the sleeve deftly held several military pills and put them into Qingsi's mouth.

This made Ringo Yuyuri's mouth twitch slightly. Is this guy really not afraid that the Bingliangwan will be overloaded and die from being stuffed to death?
……

By the evening, Qingsi had identified a secret location.

He slapped his hands on the ground.

A cave was carved out on the rock.

Rumble…

The entrance to the cave is deep and is still expanding.

This is the advantage of Earth Release Ninjutsu. It can build a base very quickly, comparable to Wood Release Ninjutsu.

Other "wind" escape, "fire" escape, "thunder" escape, "water" escape, etc. are not as convenient as "earth" escape.

Ninjutsu changes lives.

Qingsi realized this again.

Qingsi first expanded a space of 50 square meters as a temporary base.

Just now, when I used Lightning Style and Wind Style Ninjutsu to travel, I consumed a lot of chakra.

Only a part of the Hyouryoku Maru was left, and he had to use some of it to perform the "Flying Thunder God Jutsu" to return the chakra of the Fire Country.

Crossing two countries, the amount of chakra consumed would be astronomical.

There are pros and cons to this. By using the "Flying Thunder God Technique" at such a high intensity, Qingsi's understanding of this ninjutsu will continue to improve.

Optimize the defects as quickly as possible and minimize the loss of chakra.

"These marching supplies are for you."

Seiji took out a sealing scroll and handed it to Uzumaki Karin.

Inside are a week's worth of dry food, a simple tent, a sleeping bag, a water bottle, an iron pot and other basic supplies.

"……Thanks."

Uzumaki Karin said politely.

The haggardness on her pretty face was a little less, and the short red hair reaching her chin swayed gently as she nodded.

Her temperament is better than Karin's, perhaps because she has seen the world, and unlike Karin, she has been treated as a mobile blood bag since childhood.

The only flaw is that Uzumaki Rosewood is a bit thin.

I guess it’s because of hiding and being worried for a long time.

"Ringo Ayuri, as one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, you should have some independent time."

Seiji turned to look at Ringo Ayuri who was sizing up the earthen wall.

"I still have this right."

Lin Yuyu nodded.

Otherwise, how could so many people be vying to join the Seven Ninja Swordsmen?

In many cases, the Kirigakure Anbu even has to obey the orders of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Ninja Swordsmen, and is only one step away from the Kirigakure top leadership.

It is a symbol of power and glory.

"Then you stay here for a while."

After saying that, Qingsi hurriedly explained his affairs and used the "Flying Thunder God Technique" to leave.

"Hey!"

Ringo Ayuri wanted to call out to Seiji, but Seiji had already disappeared.

"This guy completely treats me as a handyman."

Ringo Ayuuri puffed up her cheeks in anger.

"He...seems to be gone."

Uzumaki Karin looked cautiously at Ringo Ayuri, who was not easy to get along with.

"Didn't I know he was gone?"

Ringo Ayuri said in a feigned vicious tone.

Uzumaki Karin was frightened when she saw her row of shark-like teeth.

Although she is from the Uzumaki clan, unfortunately she has never received a proper ninja education.

With his strength, he is at most a Chunin.

This is not counting the "Vajra Seal", which is the only offensive sealing technique she knows.

Other sealing techniques are too useless.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been controlled by others for so long.

He had long since left the war-torn Grass Kingdom and gone to the Iron Kingdom, where there were no ninjas, only samurai.

"Hurry up and make the bed. I want to sleep later."

Ringo Ayuri threw an oil-paper bag from her bag to Uzumaki Karin.

There was a faint aroma of meat wafting out from inside.

Uzumaki Karin was slightly stunned. This thing was much easier to eat than the dry food given by Qingsi.

She is not picky about food, but if she can eat good food, why not eat good food?

This changed Uzumaki Karin's impression of Ringo Ayuri a little, and she felt that she was a person who was tough on the outside but soft on the inside.

"That Uchiha... Seiji, should be the same kind of person."

Uzumaki Karin thought so.

Qingsi said he wanted to conduct research on her, but ended up being a hands-off boss.

It would be better to say that this place is a safe place that shelters her rather than an experimental base.

"How long will it take for him... Qingsi to come back?"

"The devil knows."

Lin Yuyu shook his head.

Next time I see Qingsi, I must blackmail him for some benefits.

…………

After the Battle of Kannabi Bridge, Iwagakure's logistics were greatly affected.

The territories of the Land of Earth and the Land of Fire do not border each other. If the Land of Earth wants to send troops to Konoha, the best solution is to go through the Land of Grass.

After the key node of Kannabi Bridge was destroyed by Konoha, the Iwagakure ninja on the front line could not get timely logistical support, and the situation suddenly reversed.

Jiraiya, who was guarding other fronts, led the ninjas to fight against the Land of Earth.

Ninjas with strong reconnaissance capabilities, such as the Hyuga clan, headed south to warn the Water Kingdom.

The Water Kingdom and the Fire Kingdom are separated by only a short sea. The isolated island sandwiched between the two countries, namely the Whirlpool Kingdom, has long been destroyed.

There were even ninjas from the Water Country who occupied the isolated island and used it as a transit point to continuously send troops to the mainland.

After the Kannabi Bridge, Konoha got a chance to catch its breath.

There are signs of improvement on all major defense lines.

The war has shown a trend of easing.

When Qingji returned, Kakashi was already lying in the Konoha Hospital.

All members of Minato's team and Mikoto's team were given the title of heroes.

Even the Uchiha, whose achievements the Konoha high-ups wanted to hide, received the so-called honor.

The Konoha high-level officials also conveyed this story of dedication and fearlessness of the difficult task to the students of the Ninja School.

Ninja school.

"On the day of Kannabi Bridge, three heroes with the Sharingan were born in Konoha. One of them had his name engraved on the memorial tablet, while the remaining two have continued to contribute to the village."

Sarutobi Hiruzen finished speaking to the students below.

The students' blood boiled with passion as they listened, and they all felt the "Will of Fire" burning.

Qingsi felt calm as he listened from behind.

Returning to Konoha requires handing over the mission, including the record of his actions in the Land of Grass.

He had already disguised these.

Seiji, who didn't find anyone in the Hokage Building, arrived at the Ninja School where the graduation ceremony was being held at the reminder of his Anbu colleagues.

"Look, this is Qingsi, one of the heroes."

Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly pointed to the rear, in the direction of Seiji.

Seiji's calm face transformed into a gentle smile. "This is what we must do, Hokage-sama. We are all heirs of the Will of Fire. Wherever Konoha dances, the fire will live on."

Seiji uttered one of Sarutobi Hiruzen's favorite quotes.

Sure enough, a smile appeared on Sarutobi Hiruzen's face after hearing this.

Behind him, Utane Koharu and Mitokado En, who were also holding a graduation ceremony for the new generation, also had a faint smile on their faces.

The only person Seiji didn't see was Danzo Shimura.

No one knows where this old guy is hiding in some dark corner.

"Is that Qingsi-senpai?"

Mao Yue Xi Yan below stood on tiptoe, looked at the figure in the distance, and spoke to Yue Guang Ji Feng.

"Ahem...it's Qingsi-senpai."

Moonlight Gale coughed twice.

He always remembered Qingsi as his older brother.

At the time, Qingsi saw that he was not in good health, so he used medical ninjutsu to temporarily help him relieve the symptoms.

Moonlight Gale always believed that this was a good person.

His childhood sweetheart, Uzuki Yugao, had the same idea as him.

"That's awesome."

Moonlight Gale sighed.

"Huh, I, Hongdou, will be praised like this one day."

Mitarashi Anko hummed.

Her master is one of the three ninjas, the famous Orochimaru!
With such a strong faculty, they will definitely not be inferior to Qingsi in the future.

Recently, Teacher Orochimaru has been talking about the power of curse seals, and said that he would arrange a set for her if he had the chance.

Seeing that Seiji has always been valued by Orochimaru, Mitarashi Anko feels a little inferior.

Now that he realized that he would soon have even greater power, he couldn't wait to show off to Qingsi.

"Yeyue Qingsi..."

In another corner of the graduation ceremony, Atsuyi looked at Qingsi who was speaking at the ceremony.

He clenched his fists silently.

The Third Raikage fought against ten thousand Iwagakure ninjas and died in the end.

Qingsi also passed on this information.

As a result, many of Kumogakure's deployment plans were disrupted by Konoha, catching them off guard.

But... the newly appointed Fourth Raikage Ai still asked them to win over Yotsuki Seiji.

As he grew older, Atsu found that he had unknowingly spent several years as a spy in Konoha.

I understand more and more.

He always had the feeling that every time his sister Samui went to see Qingsi, she would be taken advantage of.

But this is just speculation after all, and there is no solid evidence.

After the graduation ceremony, Sarutobi Hiruzen called out to Seiji.

"The future of the village will depend on young people like you."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was smoking his pipe and patting Pa Qingsi's shoulder, with a smell of smoke coming from his body.

"Hokage-sama is still as sharp as ever. We will have to rely on you in the future."

Qingsi said modestly.

Sarutobi Hiruzen is indeed very powerful now.

In the future, Orochimaru, who is more experienced, carries out the "Konoha Collapse Plan". During the battle with Sarutobi Hiruzen, he personally says that Sarutobi Hiruzen is too old. If he were ten years younger, he would die there.

There is still a long time before the timeline of the original work.

What this means is that Sarutobi Hiruzen is in his prime and is proficient in the five types of ninjutsu!

However, Seiji was not impressed by Sarutobi Hiruzen's promise.

The so-called glory is nothing more than a value tool used by superiors to motivate their subordinates.

This is the core of the Will of Fire.

The more sacrifice is required, the more this will be promoted.

"Haha, I'm old, old."

Sarutobi Hiruzen exhaled a puff of smoke and started talking to Seiji.

Although Obito is dead, the living should look forward and not let his death be in vain.

"By the way, that kid Kakashi wants to join the Anbu. Since you're already an Anbu member, go take Kakashi and complete the process."

Sarutobi Hiruzen brought up the matter.

"it is good."

Qingsi nodded.

Kakashi was still in the hospital, and he just happened to be going there.

This is about him opening the three-magatama Sharingan.

This is the end of Kannabi Bridge.

To what extent will Nohara Rin pay for Kakashi's Sharingan?

You know, with his presence this time, the Uchiha clan’s reputation for producing geniuses has become even greater.

Many members of the clan were inflated to varying degrees, believing that the Uchiha clan would continue to produce countless geniuses and achieve the glory that belonged to the Uchiha clan.

Then people will definitely question the existence of this Sharingan.

"Goodbye, Hokage-sama."

Qingsi's figure disappeared.

He used the "Flying Thunder God Jutsu" and disappeared from the spot.

"Have you mastered this technique well, just like Minato?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen puffed on his cigarette.

"Pay attention to the recent movements of the Uchiha."

Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke to the empty corridor.

The issue of Kakashi's Sharingan is very sensitive and needs to be treated with caution.

Kakashi is the son of the White Fang and cannot continue to disappoint other ninja clans.

Likewise, it was necessary to maintain a balance with the Uchiha.

At this moment when the war situation has eased a little, anything can have a ripple effect and lead to a total loss.

Up to now, no major country dares to say that it is not in danger of national destruction.

The severity of this war far exceeds that of the previous two Ninja World Wars!
"Yes, Hokage-sama."

From the shadows in the corner, the ANBU's reply could be heard faintly.

…………

Konoha Hospital.

"Kakashi."

Qingsi knocked on the door of the ward and came in from outside.

Kakashi was half-sitting on the bed, covered with a blanket and wearing a blue and white hospital gown.

His left eye was wrapped in a white bandage, just like Shimura Danzo's, and his only remaining right eye was looking out the window.

Eye transplant surgery is actually a very difficult operation, which requires solving problems such as immune rejection and regeneration of severed tissue.

Moreover, the optic nerve is a nerve bundle that extends directly from the brain. It is about one millimeter in diameter and needs to be precisely connected to more than one million nerve fibers and the meridian system in the eyeball.

For Nohara Rin, who does not have the Sharingan, even with a nearly omnipotent healing technique like medical ninjutsu, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no sequelae.

What's more, the operation was performed hastily in the wild, facing the possibility of an enemy attack at any time, so Kakashi still needs to be hospitalized for observation.

"Kiyoshi."

The decadent look on Kakashi's body became more and more intense, his salty eyes looked lifeless and a little haggard.

"How's your body?"

Qingsi put down the gift he brought.

"Fortunately."

Kakashi nodded.

"After you're discharged from the hospital in a few days, I'll take you through the process of joining the Anbu."

Qingsi spoke.

When you join the Anbu, you will receive a set of Anbu equipment and you will also need to get a red flame tattoo on your arm.

With Qingsi's current medical ninjutsu, he can wash off the ink of this tattoo at any time.

"It's troublesome."

Kakashi's voice was hoarse and he still looked a little dazed.

Qingsi was not surprised to see this. After transplanting the Sharingan, the main body needed to suppress the Sharingan at all times.

When Danzo Shimura transplanted the Sharingan, he also specially obtained "Hashirama cells" to balance the power.

Kakashi had nothing and could only take it head-on, and his mana limit was directly cut.

It would be strange if I could feel better.

"Kiyoshi, have you come to visit Kakashi?"

Nohara Lin came in from outside carrying a few boxes of lunch.

Her face was as haggard as Kakashi's.

Seeing this, Qingsi showed a hidden smile.

Kakashi's pressure will sooner or later be passed on to Nohara Rin, after all, Nohara Rin is such a kind person.

"Ah."

Qingsi nodded.

"That's it."

Nohara Lin put down the lunch box and planned to turn around and get one for Qingji as well.

"No, I'll be leaving right away."

Qingsi shook his head, exchanged a few words of greeting, and then took his leave.

Nohara Rin’s matter needs to ferment, and fermentation takes time.

This time will not be too long, just within these few days.

Qingsi was not in a hurry.

"Kakashi, what are you talking about?"

After Qingji left, Nohara Lin opened the lunch box and asked Kakashi.

"Nothing, it's confidential."

Kakashi said calmly.

The matter of joining the Anbu cannot be revealed casually.

Otherwise, everyone would know the identity of the Anbu, and wearing a mask would be meaningless.

Kakashi actually didn't know much about Anbu, and his father rarely mentioned Anbu before his death.

The only thing that is clear is that the Anbu is a bloody and dark place!

When Obito gave his Sharingan as a gift to the jonin and died to save him, Kakashi realized what "bonds" were.

I also realized that idiots who don't value their companions are trash among ninjas.

This is what Obito taught him with his life, but it's a pity that he realized it too late.

So Kakashi didn't want Nohara Rin to get involved in these things. Obito entrusted Nohara Rin to him, so Kakashi had to fulfill his promise with Obito to "protect Rin" at the risk of his life.

"Secret...huh?"

Nohara Lin's eyes were filled with a layer of sadness. She rubbed her eyes casually and quietly wiped away the tears.

Ever since Kakashi came back, I've been actively keeping a certain distance from him.

When I was discussing Lightning Release with Kakashi before, the atmosphere between the two of them was pretty good.

Now I have returned to the original progress, and I even feel a deep sense of distance.

"Kakashi..."

Nohara Lin seemed to be hesitant to speak, as if she wanted to say what had been buried in her heart all these years.

"Rin... Obito likes you very much... He values ​​you very much..."

Kakashi realized what Nohara Rin wanted to say and spoke first.

"..."

Nohara Lin lowered her eyes.

Shouldn't love be free?
Doesn't she have the right to pursue the person she likes?
Because Obito might like me, so I can't be with Kakashi?
"I...I'm leaving first."

After Kakashi finished his lunch box, Nohara Rin packed up the lunch box and quickly walked out the door.

"Lin..."

Kakashi stretched out his hand in pain, then quickly pulled it back.

This was his own fault and he had to atone for it.
