Naruto: Reshaping the Shinobi World with Sasori

"These are all the ninjutsu scrolls in the village that you are currently eligible to borrow."

The next day, Yubi approached Arai and explained his purpose.

The other party was also very efficient.

After all, the Third Kazekage had given instructions regarding Yubi's requirements.

Therefore, Arai quickly brought over some ninjutsu scrolls.

The records in the ninjutsu scrolls basically cover the meridian routes of jutsu seals and chakra.

"What do you need so many ninjutsu scrolls for?" Arai asked curiously. "You're a medical ninja, so if you want to learn some of these ninjutsu... it might not be that easy. After all, your chakra nature is currently relatively singular... like other ninjutsu, it might be difficult for you to use them."

"I'll just take a look at the hand seals and the composition and circulation method of the routes... Although I can't use the escape techniques, I can still experience the feeling of chakra."

Yubi laughed.

"Accumulating knowledge of ninjutsu, huh?"

Akira Arai.

A skilled ninja, even if unable to use the relevant escape techniques, should at least have some understanding of ninjutsu of other elements.

Truly powerful individuals can analyze and predict the nature of a technique to a certain extent within a short period of time after their opponent uses it.

This is the benefit of experience.

"Although what I'm saying might sound a bit strange to others if they hear it... but you can't be treated normally. I think you should study these ninjutsu scrolls carefully, to see how the various hand seals respond to chakra, because... if you train to a certain level, you might be able to form hand seals with one hand in the future... or even use hand seal-free ninjutsu."

Arai coughed.

"hiss…"

Upon hearing this, even Yubi gasped.

He stared at the elite Jonin in front of him, his mouth slightly agape.

"..."

"Am I that amazing in your eyes? Aren't you giving me a bit too much credit?" Yubi asked.

"How many weird things have you done already? Well, who told you to be a genius... giving it a try is never a bad idea."

Arai scratched his head.

He seemed to realize that his expectations for Yubi were a bit too high.

You should know that, looking at the entire ninja world, there are very few people who can form hand seals with one hand... they are extremely rare.

As for someone who can use hand seal ninjutsu... at least, Arai has never seen one.

Yubi packed the roll into a package and prepared to leave.

He needs to reflect on this carefully over the next period of time.

It's estimated that this will take quite a while.

Scorpion hasn't come back yet, and Yubi wanted to wait for him to return before leaving the village together.

I wonder what mission Scorpion is doing outside... he's so slow.

For general tasks, the time limit will increase depending on the difficulty level, but normally it will take about ten days to a month.

Team missions, especially during wartime, such as border patrols, take even longer.

After packing her things, Yubi turned to leave, but suddenly paused.

"Arai-sensei... is the village preparing to negotiate peace with Konoha?"

He turned around and asked.

As the Third Kazekage's personal bodyguard, Arai was naturally well aware of the decisions made by the higher-ups.

Looking at Yubi's face, Arai's expression changed from relaxed to serious and gloomy.

"Any decisions made by the higher-ups are absolutely confidential to the village... Don't pry," Arai cautioned.

"This matter... is already obvious. Even if the higher-ups try to keep it quiet, those who have stepped down from the front lines are discussing it in private. The village's actions have already explained everything... I work in a hospital, and you can't fool me about this."

Yubi laughed.

"..."

Arai fell silent.

After a moment, his feigned solemn expression seemed to deflate.

"You little rascal... you're good at everything, but sometimes you're too bright... that might not be a good thing."

"Are they really going to talk peace?"

Yubi raised an eyebrow and his smile faded.

"The hatred between us and Konoha is irreconcilable... There is no possibility of peace talks," Arai said.

"So that means... it's sending a signal to Konoha on the battlefield that both sides have tacitly stopped fighting? The village can't hold on any longer... In the end, isn't it just a disguised peace talk? Seeing that we've stopped, Konoha still has to deal with the other major ninja villages, so naturally they're happy to cease hostilities." Yubi gave the explanation hidden in his words.

"Lord Kazekage has his reasons... The village can no longer withstand a large-scale war. If the fighting continues, the consequences will be unbearable for the village."

"Nobody wants a ceasefire... If possible, we would even like to wipe out everyone in Konoha to avenge our fallen comrades."

"Things aren't as you think... It's not a complete halt; we'll still clash with Konoha... It's just that given the current situation, it can only be small-scale conflicts."

The daily conflicts and frictions between the five major ninja villages are, frankly speaking, just like before the outbreak of this Ninja World War.

Arai was willing to say so much because he knew he couldn't hide it from Yubi, and also because Yubi was a special case.

Furthermore, this news won't be kept secret for long.

Yubi is the future hope of Sunagakure.

He knew in advance about some things and some situations, and he accepted them.

This will also allow the boy to recognize the true state and structure of the ninja world earlier.

"I understand."

Yubi smiled again.

He did not show anger or resentment, nor did he accuse the Kazekage and others, including himself, of being weak.

This shows that Yubi is indeed mentally mature.

Nobody wanted to come to this... but reality presented itself, and they had no choice but to back down.

"Please tell Lord Kazekage that the village will definitely get better and better; I believe it!"

Yubi left a message and went out the door under Arai's watchful gaze.

Upon hearing this, Arai's eyes reddened... and he looked relieved.

Although they were "defeated" in this Ninja World War, Yubi's appearance was undoubtedly a pleasant surprise.

It is also a gift from God to Sunagakure.

They, the Sand Village... still have hope.

……

The village's leadership bears full responsibility for the village's defeat!

The first to be affected is the Third Kazekage.

Because he lacked self-awareness, he opened fire on Konoha for the sake of "economy"... his ambition went too far.

Thus, the village paid the price for his arrogance and ignorance.

Therefore, having personally experienced the Second Shinobi World War and witnessed the gradual changes in the village, Yubi felt no regret whatsoever about the death of the Third Kazekage in later generations.

Sunagakure can declare war on Konoha!

However, it is essential to have a sufficiently clear understanding of both the enemy and ourselves.

This includes strategically deploying troops, rather than blindly charging forward and sending villagers to their deaths.

His experience with patrol missions alone shows that... Kazekage's operational planning for the front lines is not meticulous.

The fact that the village's fighting force has suffered such staggering casualties also confirms that such wartime orders and deployments are probably the norm.

He improved the medical department's capabilities, but those he saved... were ultimately sent to the front lines like sandbags.

The Third Kazekage played a terrible hand.

Leaving aside the puppeteers or bloodline limits of Sunagakure... let's just talk about the 'poison' of Sunagakure.

Although Granny Chiyo could neutralize Hanzo's poison, Tsunade could also counter Chiyo's "poison." This alone should have been a crucial factor in the planning and execution of every battle between Sunagakure and Konoha.

"I believe... the village will get better and better, but there's no place for you on the ship of the future."

As Yubi walked out of the building, she glanced back at the window of the Third Kazekage's office in the distance and said softly.

Immediately, he strode away.
