Konoha: My peaceful life was betrayed by the system.

I don't know how long it's been since I've felt this way, or maybe I've never felt it at all.

After everyone had gone back to pack their luggage, Hashirama took a proper look around the valley.

What also came into view was an endless pile of corpses, numbering at least a thousand, with a skeleton lying every few meters.

It occupied almost half of the valley. When Hashirama saw it, he sighed. Life is the most fragile thing.

He didn't want his people to suffer such a fate, so Hashirama was always searching for the right path to peace.

But it seems that wherever there are people, there will be war, and true peace seems hard to come by.

Toruka also noticed Hashirama's thoughts and comforted him, "Master, don't be too sad. The Miyajo clan will definitely have a better future after joining Konoha."

Hashirama sighed after hearing this: "I hope so."

Not long after, Miya Shigetsu returned with his clansmen, each carrying a bulging package.

Hashirama pointed to the bones scattered on the ground: "Aren't you going to take them with you?"

"Actually, I wanted to bring them with me, but I was afraid of wasting time, so I could only let our ancestors rest here."

Miya Shiro Tsuki struggled with the decision for a long time, and finally, after discussing it with her clansmen, she decided to give up taking away the remains of her ancestors.

We'll wait until we've established a firm foothold in Konoha before bringing them home.

Torifu walked up to Miyajou Tsuki and smiled, "Leave it to me."

Take the wind and throw a perfectly round crystal ball into the air. It then explodes, and the fragments cover the entire holy land.

"Crystal Escape - Crystal Creation".

Chapter 160 Setting Off Back to the Village

Take the wind and throw a perfectly round crystal ball into the air. It then explodes, and the fragments cover the entire holy land.

"Crystal Escape - Crystal Creation".

In an instant, all the crystal fragments took root and sprouted, and grew rapidly.

Before long, countless crystal vines covered the sacred land, and then a huge flower bud grew at the top of each crystal vine.

Then the flower buds bloomed into a giant crystal flower, which, under the control of Qu Feng, enveloped the nearest skeleton.

In just a few breaths, all the bones in the entire holy land were enveloped by crystal flowers.

Guided by the wind, the crystal flower decomposed all the bones and then spat out a misty crystal bead.

If you look closely, you'll find that the reason the crystal beads appear hazy is because of the ashes encased within them.

Using the wind to manipulate the vines, all the crystal beads were gathered into a small pile.

There are over a thousand beads, but each bead is only a few sizes larger than a glass marble.

After all, it had been dead for a long time, and its bones had been corroded by the hot spring mist over the years, making them very fragile and leaving almost nothing behind.

All the beads gathered together, forming a small pile that was about half a person's height.

The people of the Miya Castle clan were stunned by the scene. Just a moment ago, there were bones scattered all over the ground, but now they were all like glass balls.

However, in this way, we can indeed take our ancestors with us. Although there are quite a few beads, if everyone works a little harder, we can still take them all.

But how could we let them carry all these beads? Let alone the fact that they are physically weak and might die from carrying too much.

With each person receiving over a hundred beads, their movement speed will definitely be significantly reduced.

The wind gathered the beads into a pyramid shape, which then created a crystal cage, locking all the beads inside.

He put them into his spatial ring, and even took the luggage of the Miyajo clan into it.

The bewildered members of the Miyajo clan were left behind. Where did my huge package go?

Just as Miyajo was about to ask, Jiri explained everything clearly, adding that her and Hashirama's belongings were being kept by Torifu, so there was no need to worry.

David was also amazed when he heard this, as he never expected that such a convenient ninjutsu would exist.

"Now that everything here is over, let's hurry back to the village."

No one objected to Hashirama's suggestion.

And so, the three of them, along with the hundred members of the Miyajo clan, embarked on their journey back to Konoha Village.

To ensure the safety of the Miyajo clan, Torifu and Jiri need to be on guard the entire time, while Hashirama takes the lead and clears away any obstacles in front of him.

Traveling at night is inherently dangerous, and it's easy to get separated from your teammates if you're not careful.

If it were a normal ninja squad, it would be fine; they would usually head to their destination to rendezvous.

However, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the Miyajo clan consists of the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled; it's unrealistic to expect them to walk to Konoha on their own.

Fortunately, they had the all-powerful Crystal Escape technique, which used vines to connect everyone.

Although this method is somewhat inconvenient, it is the safest. The chains can be removed during rest or daytime.

After traveling for about three days, the group finally returned to the Land of Fire.

During this period, they also encountered many attacks from wandering samurai and wandering ninjas.

However, before they could even get close, they were sniped by Qu Feng from a distance.

These small items had no impact on the team's speed of movement.

The members of the Miyajo clan were also well aware of Touko's strength; he was definitely not as simple as the child he appeared to be.

Given time, he could very well become a figure like the First Hokage.

"Once we reach the Land of Fire, we'll be completely safe, hahaha."

The continuous high-speed travel over the past few days has been somewhat exhausting for the people of Oya Castle, but in reality, this speed is already quite slow.

Considering their physical condition, Hashirama suggested that they rest for about half a day first.

After all, it's quite a distance to get from the border of the Land of Fire to Konoha Village.

The people of the Miya Castle clan smiled upon hearing this.

We're about to arrive at our new home, though we don't know what kind of place it will be yet.

They were somewhat confused about the future, but judging from the attitudes of Toki, Jiri, and the First Hokage towards them...

Life in the future will definitely not be too bad!

During the break, Miyajo En walked over and sat down next to Torifu.

"Brother Tokifu, you said there's a ninja academy in the village. Can I go and study there?"

Miyajo En spoke somewhat hesitantly, and seemed quite nervous. Torifu could tell that he was very interested in the Ninja Academy.

"Of course you can go to school as long as you have ninja talent."

Upon hearing Feng's words, Miyajo En smiled.

He was still very interested in ninjas, mainly because Miyajo Tsuki had instilled a lot of ideas in him.

Moreover, he didn't want to experience that feeling of helplessness again when he was bullied by the ninjas of Kumogakure.

"Don't worry about not making friends. When school starts, everyone is a stranger. As long as you are bold, you will definitely be able to make friends."

Yuya Shiro nodded repeatedly. He was the most daring, after all, he dared to steal things in the royal city at such a young age.

Moreover, his agility was such that even the city guards couldn't handle him; he was clearly a promising talent, and such a prodigy would usually be quite popular in school.

Moreover, Oyajo En is not bad-looking. Although he is not particularly handsome, he is not ugly either. He is the kind of person whose looks grow on you.

"Brother Qufeng, are you a ninja now?"

"Yes, I am now an elite Jonin of Konoha Village."

Upon hearing this, not only Miyajo En, but also Miyajo Tsuki and many of his clansmen were stunned. What was an elite Jonin?

They're ninjas too, so why haven't they heard of this thing?

Seeing the bewildered looks on everyone's faces, Tokifuku stopped keeping them in suspense and said, "This is the ninja ranking system established by the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju."

"Ninjas are rated based on a comprehensive assessment of their skills and knowledge."

Upon hearing this, the Oya Shigeki father and son understood, while Torifu continued to explain.

"After you return to Konoha, you will all be at the Genin level. Only by taking the exam can you be promoted. This will affect the difficulty of the missions you take on, and of course, it will also affect your income."

The lower the difficulty of the mission, the lower the reward; the higher the difficulty, the higher the reward. Genin can only accept missions below B rank.

Tasks like catching cats, finding dogs, and clearing out bandits were once all cleared out by Qu Feng in a single day.

But they didn't gain much benefit.

Therefore, the Miyajo clan has a long way to go to repay the loan to Konoha.

Chapter 161 Injecting Fresh Blood

Therefore, the Miyajo clan has a long way to go to repay the loan to Konoha.

After Tokifumi's detailed explanation, the members of the Miyajo clan understood the system of ranking ninjas into upper, middle, and lower ninja.

Having not engaged in ninja activities for a long time, they decided to start intensively studying ninja knowledge once everything was settled, determined to achieve the Chunin rank!

Regarding this high level of fighting spirit, all I can say is that it's hard to judge; I wish him success.

The Miyagi clan greatly admired Konoha's innovative policies and couldn't wait to see the real Konoha.

After half a day, everyone's mind and body had been fully rested.

When they set off again, they all had smiles on their faces, and you could clearly feel that their spirits had changed.

It was a completely different feeling from being in Hell Valley.

Before, it was lifeless and lacked vitality, but now everyone seems to be full of hope for the future.

With this momentum, the team's overall progress was much faster than before, and they were expected to reach Konoha Village in two and a half days.

This trip took nearly half a month from start to finish, but it yielded a family full of potential.

This is something that no amount of time can bring back; Konoha hasn't had a fresh influx of blood for a very long time.

I wonder what kind of changes the Miyajo clan can bring to Konoha?
