Konoha's lexicon of ninjas

Many hands make light work.

With the entire alliance's talent pool mobilized, along with Orochimaru and Yuuto (Kabuto Yakushi), Hoshino Shuichi believed that the Ten-Tails training program would progress much faster.

However, after the meeting ended, just as Hoshino Shuichi was about to take Kaguya Otsutsuki for a stroll around the Alliance Fortress, he was stopped by Mei Terumi.

"Shuichi, when do you plan to leave the ninja world?"

Mei Terumi stared into Shuichi Hoshita's eyes and asked.

Hoshino Hideichi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll definitely take you with me if I want to."

Mei Terumi frowned upon hearing this, and Hideaki Hoshishita quickly leaned forward and whispered in her ear, "We're not ready yet. We'll have to wait until you're pregnant and have given birth. I did say I wanted to establish the Hoshishita Clan."

"Furthermore, I will only feel at ease once the Ten-Tails has been cultivated and you have eaten the fruit of the Divine Tree."

The heavy ties forced even Shuichi Hoshino to abandon his previous plans.

Gentle Township, Hero Tomb.

Mr. Lu Xun was absolutely right!

Hoshino Shizuka sighed inwardly.

Mei Terumi felt secretly relieved upon hearing this, then gave a soft hum: "Then let's have the baby today!"

Apart from herself and Shizune, all the other women had children.

I didn't care much about it before, but now I suddenly feel a bit anxious.

Hoshino Hideichi chuckled and gently kissed Terumi Mei's lips: "It's up to you."

"In that case, why don't you take her back with you when you return to Konoha!"

Hoshita Hideichi pointed at Otsutsuki Kaguya.

Mei Terumi paused, then asked, "Take her home?"

"Living with us?"

Xingxia Xiu nodded: "It seems there is no better solution than this."

Mei Terumi glanced at her man suspiciously, then nodded slightly to Kaguya Otsutsuki: "Then come with me!"

Hideaki Hoshino nodded in acknowledgment to Kaguya Otsutsuki.

Kaguya Otsutsuki stepped forward to catch up with Mei Terumi, but suddenly said, "I won't compete with you for a man. I only had a child with him for my own benefit."

Mei Terumi froze, then slowly turned to look at Shuichi Hoshino.

Hoshita Shuichi nearly stumbled, looked speechlessly at Otsutsuki Kaguya, and then awkwardly smiled at Terumi Mei, saying, "Well, this suggestion was just her wishful thinking."

Kaguya Otsutsuki immediately and ruthlessly exposed her: "This is your true thought deep in your heart."

Hoshino Hideichi sighed and facepalmed.

Mei Terumi looked at Shuichi Hoshishita, a smile playing on her sexy red lips: "I don't mind, but Tsunade might not!"

After saying that, he turned and left, and Kaguya Otsutsuki followed as if nothing had happened.

Hoshino Shuichi stood there, feeling a slight headache coming on as he thought of Tsunade.

This relationship is indeed a little bit complicated.

In terms of bloodline, Kaguya Otsutsuki is Tsunade's ancestor.

"Forget it, there's nothing that can't be resolved in bed."

Hoshita Shuichi put aside his worries and instead sneered to himself, "Kaguya... has seduced... no, provoked me several times. I'll teach you a lesson tonight!"

He decided to teach Kaguya Otsutsuki a lesson, to teach her what the three obediences and four virtues were, and to make her completely change into his own shape.

Having made up his mind, Hoshino Shuichi left the Alliance headquarters and entered the bustling city, strolling slowly and enjoying the noise and prosperity.

As one's strength grows and one's aspirations rise, one must inevitably engage with the world to avoid the loneliness that comes with being at the top.

"Shuichi-kun!"

Suddenly, a clear female voice rang out.

Hoshino Hideaki, who was enjoying his stroll, turned around and said, "Hey, Kurotsuchi."

The one who called out to him was none other than Kurotsuchi from Iwagakure.

Hoshino Hideichi smiled and waved, then waited for Kurotsuchi to step forward before asking with a smile, "Were you going on a mission, or did you just get back?"

Kurotsuchi naturally took Hoshino Shuichi's arm and said with a smile, "We just came back from a mission."

"Shuichi-kun, what are you doing here? Is there something you need to do?"

Hoshino nodded: "I attended a meeting, but it's over now, so I came here to browse around."

As he spoke, he looked at Black Earth's two companions.

Kurotsuchi finally remembered and quickly introduced, "Shuichi-kun, this is my senior brother, Akatsuchi."

The big-nosed, honest-looking man immediately bowed to Hoshino Hideichi and said somewhat awkwardly, "Lord Hideichi, I am Akatsuchi from Iwagakure."

Hoshita Shuichi nodded slightly. He was one of Onoki's bodyguards at the Five Kage Summit in the original work. He was proficient in Earth Release and was no less skilled than Huang Tu.

Kurotsuchi then introduced another blond boy of similar age: "Shuichi-kun, this is Deidara-nii. He's a master of unique explosive ninjutsu and an exceptionally skilled ninja!"

Deidara was a vibrant and energetic young man, unlike Akatsuchi who was reserved. After being introduced, he immediately said in a lively and sunny voice, "Lord Shuuichi, that's not some unique ninjutsu, it's art!"

"I think explosions are the most beautiful and greatest art in the world. What do you think?"

After asking the question, Deidara looked at Hoshino Shuichi with anticipation, as if he wanted to gain Hoshino Shuichi's approval.

Looking at Deidara's beaming smile, Hoshino Shuichi couldn't help but smile: "Art can certainly be art, but whether it's the greatest depends on how far you can push it."

"Just like when talking about Magnet Release, the first thing that comes to mind is the Third Kazekage's iron sand and the Fourth Kazekage's gold sand."

"When I think of speed, the first thing that comes to mind is the Fourth Hokage and the Fourth Raikage."

Deidara immediately became excited upon hearing this: "I see."

"In other words, if I defeat you, Lord Shuichi, then my art of explosion will be the greatest!"

Hoshino Shizuka chuckled to himself: As expected, geniuses all have different thought processes.

Kurotsuchi scoffed, "Deidara-nii, don't even think about it. You have no chance of defeating Shuichi-kun."

Hoshino Shuichi immediately patted Kurodo and said, "Don't jump to conclusions so quickly."

"In theory, everyone's potential is limitless; the key is whether it can be tapped."

"Explosive ninjutsu, or rather, Explosive Release, certainly has endless potential."

Deidara nodded repeatedly, very happy that he had been recognized.

Hoshino Shuichi continued, "I've heard a rumor that the entire universe originated from a massive explosion, which formed our ninja world and the countless stars in the sky."

Deidara's eyes widened in excitement: "Really?"

"No, it must be true. Hmm!"

"Indeed, explosions are the greatest, eternal art. Hmm!"

Kurotsuchi couldn't help but ask in disbelief, "Shuichi-kun, is this for real?"

Hoshino Hideichi smiled and said, "With my current abilities, I cannot confirm whether this rumor is true or not."

He patted Deidara on the shoulder: "Keep it up! Maybe one day, your explosive art will prove whether this is true or not!"

Deidara nodded immediately, full of hope and motivation: "I will definitely explode to prove it. Yes!"

Young people are so easy to fool!

At that moment, Kurotsuchi shook Hoshino Shuichi's arm, her voice tinged with a coquettish tone: "Shuichi-kun, when can I join your special training class?"

Akatsuchi couldn't help but look forward to it.

Huang Tu's strength is evident to all. Since finishing his special training, he has been continuously improving, and he has even reached the level of a Kage with just Earth Release Chakra Mode.

However, Deidara did not react much, remaining immersed in his own reverie about explosive art.

Seeing the expectant look in Kurotsuchi's eyes, Hoshino Shuichi smiled and said, "You've mastered Lava Release by now, haven't you?"

Heitu nodded quickly: "Of course, I'm working very hard."

In order to catch up with someone's pace, she cultivated desperately, although the gap was still very large.

Hoshino Hideaki said, "That should be soon. You'll definitely be selected after you become a Jonin."

"Of course, you can't relax during this time. Now should be the period when your strength improves the fastest."

"Never be satisfied with your current achievements. Lava Release is not the end. There is also your grandfather's Kekkei Tota Dust Release, and above Dust Release, there is Kekkei Tota.

He stroked Kuroto's hair and said with a smile, "Never waste your talent."

The black kitten seemed to enjoy the gentle caress, then nodded emphatically: "Of course, you're my target!"

Hoshino Hideichi laughed loudly upon hearing this: "Then you'll have to work even harder."

Heitu raised his fist: "Of course, I've always worked very hard."

"Right, Senior Brother Akatsuchi, and Brother Deidara?"

Akatsuchi immediately nodded: "Lord Shuichi, my junior sister is indeed very hardworking."

Deidara, however, showed no reaction, completely absorbed in his own world.

Kurotsuchi immediately flew into a rage and slapped Deidara.

Deidara snapped out of his daze and looked at Kurotsuchi with a bewildered expression.

Hei Tu was speechless and rubbed his forehead.

Hideichi Hoshino chuckled: "I believe it, but I still need to keep trying."

Then, a stream of chakra flowed into Kurotsuchi's body: "This is my chakra. If you have any doubts, you can call out to me in your heart, and my chakra will respond."

Kurotsuchi immediately beamed with joy: "Thank you, Xiuyi-kun."

Hoshino Hideichi smiled and said, "Alright, go ahead."

Hei Tu left reluctantly, turning back every few steps.

As Hoshino watched the three leave, he couldn't help but sigh, "Youth is truly wonderful!"

"Hey, we don't seem that old, do we?"

A familiar voice suddenly rang out.

Without turning his head, Hoshino said, "Kakashi, why aren't you at home taking care of the kids? What are you doing here?"

Kakashi walked up to Hoshino Shuichi and said, "I'm not like you, able to stay at home and be a stay-at-home dad."

"Just finished a rather tricky task."

Hoshino Hideichi asked curiously, "Troublesome?"

"What kind of missions in the ninja world are currently causing you some trouble?"

Kakashi said, "It's the Jashin Cult, which has recently revived."

"One guy even managed to become immortal."

Hidan?

Hoshino Hideichi guessed, but wasn't worried, and asked with a smile, "If it's just immortality, there's no need to use the word 'troublesome,' is there?"

Kakashi nodded: "That's true."

"There are also a few powerful rogue ninja who once served the daimyo. Also, you know about the Star Ninja Village, right? These guys got involved in the fight against the Alliance."

Hoshino Shizuka suddenly realized.

The daimyo of each country actually had their own private armed forces, including ninjas.

Whether it's hiring employees or, like the daimyo of the Land of Fire who previously attempted to cultivate his own talent, it's all part of the process.

Indeed, some ninjas are quite powerful.

It's not surprising that some people are unwilling to accept the annexation of other smaller countries by the five major powers.

Not everyone is willing to embrace the new era.

Hoshino Shuichi didn't ask any further questions; the result was obvious.

"The Storm Release technique is complete. Is there a next target?"

Strolling down the street, Xiuyi asked under the stars.

Kakashi, with his hands behind his head, said lazily, "Take a break. I'm not like you."

Hoshino Shizuka teased, "Then let Rin have another one, to inherit your Storm Release, and win at the starting line."

Kakashi's son, Hatake Sagumo, was born before Kakashi mastered Storm Release, so he obviously couldn't directly inherit this bloodline limit.

Kakashi wanted to roll his eyes when he heard that.

However, this is indeed something worth considering.

Nohara Rin also wanted to have another child.

……

The land of rain.

Standing on the boat, looking at the scenery on both banks and the boats crisscrossing the river, Jiraiya couldn't help but exclaim, "It really is completely different now!"

"There's simply no way to compare it to the Land of Rain back then."

Looking up again, the sun was shining brightly.

Jiraiya has been in the Land of Rain for several days, but it hasn't rained yet.

This season used to be the rainy season.

Someone on the ship heard Jiraiya's remark and laughed, "We have to thank the Ninja Alliance and Lord Shuichi, the God of Ninjas, for this."

"If it weren't for Lord Shuichi using divine power to cut off a section of the northern mountain back then, the Land of Rain wouldn't be as prosperous as it is now."

Someone chimed in, "I heard that it was also Lord Shuichi who proposed turning the Land of Rain into a water transport hub!"

"It's not just a water transport hub, but also the Land of Wind. I went to the Land of Wind last month, and I actually traveled entirely by water."

"I heard they're going to plant trees all over the deserts of the Land of Wind. Is that really possible?"

"Of course you can. Lord Shuichi is the God of Shinobi. Gods are omnipotent."

"See the Alliance Fortress? That was created by Lord Shuichi using his supernatural powers."

……

The topic quickly veered off course, becoming filled with praise and admiration for Shuichi Hoshino.

Jiraiya felt a sense of pride listening to this, but he couldn't help but mutter to himself, "This guy is the true chosen one!"

He was starting to feel that the Toad Sage's prophecy was a bit unreliable.

"Forget it, I'll go back after Naruto graduates!"

Jiraiya made a decision.

Of course, it wasn't because he was afraid of Tsunade and Kushina Uzumaki.

This is for the benefit of our readers.

"With such a big change, the girls here must be different too, right?"

Jiraiya wore a lewd smile.

"We are approaching Amegakure. Passengers, please prepare to disembark..."

The broadcast suddenly blared, and Jiraiya squinted as he gazed at Amegakure, which looked exactly as he remembered: "It seems that not much has changed here."

A moment later, Jiraiya disembarked and entered Amegakure. He then discovered that while the village appeared largely unchanged from the outside, the interior was completely different from what he remembered.

Even Jiraiya felt as if he had returned to Konoha and entered the Alliance Fortress.

Bustling and lively!

This feeling is completely different from the lifeless Amegakure of the past.

Standing there, Jiraiya couldn't help but think of his idealistic disciple from years ago, and smiled, "Yahiko must be very happy!" (End of Chapter)
