Konoha: From meeting Kaguya Otsutsuki

"Fenghua Nutao is dead." Xiyan Ying's clone spoke, breaking the silence.

"Is he really dead?" Fenghua Xiaoxue asked in disbelief.

"He's dead." The shadow clone said softly.

After hearing this, Fenghua Xiaoxue was stunned for a long time, with an expression on her face that seemed to be both crying and laughing.

After a while, a smile appeared on her face, but tears suddenly flowed from her eyes and she sobbed softly.

"That's great. I don't have to live under someone else's roof anymore. I don't have to look at other people's faces anymore. I'm finally home."

"Father, I'm back. Did you see me?"

Everyone watched her vent her emotions in silence.

After a long time, Fenghua Xiaoxue wiped away her tears and her facial expression returned to normal.

"The main culprit has been killed and the situation has been settled. Your Highness, no, Your Majesty, when you ascend the throne, do not forget the agreement you made with us." said the shadow clone.

"What agreement?"

After hearing her words, Asama Santaifu finally realized what kind of agreement there was between them. Before that, Fuuka Koyuki had only told him that Uzuki Yugao was a helper invited back from outside.

"Like the Kingdom of Soup and the Kingdom of Frost, border tariffs are zero, all tax rates are unified, and residents of different countries can freely purchase land, houses, etc. in other countries..." The shadow clone briefly stated a few policies.

"No." Asama Santaifu immediately stopped him loudly, "That will cause the population of the Snow Country to be lost."

What kind of place is the Snow Country? It’s a bitterly cold place.

In addition, in order to realize his ambition of unifying the world, Fenghua Nutao has been constantly expanding the technology trees in the three aspects of sea, land and air, and developing various war weapons.

Where does the money come from? Naturally, it comes from exploiting the people.

Now that the policies of several countries are unified, it will become much easier for the residents of the Snow Country to leave.

Although the Kingdom of Soup and the Kingdom of Frost are also small countries, their living environment is much better than that of the Kingdom of Snow.

In the eyes of ordinary people, the only advantage of the Snow Country is that it will not be affected by the war between major powers.

Xi Yanying's clone just shrugged, "Actually, I don't really understand these things. Those armies or ninjas who follow Feng Hua Nu Tao are basically rebels. I will help you deal with them all and retrain a group of armed forces."

Asama Santaifu's face changed again.

What this means is that we must take control of the military power of the Snow Country.

Without an army that she can actually control, even if Her Royal Highness the Princess can command all the civil servants, she will be insignificant.

Not only him, but even the archers had more or less thought of this.

There was anger in their eyes.

It turns out that this person's goal is also to invade the Snow Country.

Facing these people's gazes, Xi Yanying's clone said indifferently: "Don't expect anything. Since I can still stay here well, it means that my original body has not encountered any threats."

"Your Highness the Princess..." Asama Santaifu opened her mouth, wanting her to say something.

"..." Fenghua Xiaoxue remained silent, with no change in her expression.

When Tsunade and others said they would help her restore her country, she had expected this scene to happen.

The atmosphere in the palace became solemn and extremely quiet, and they all seemed to be waiting for some results.

After a long time, a figure rushed in, with a strong smell of blood and congealed blood on her body.

Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Xi Yan raised her eyebrows, blinked her eyes, and chuckled, "Don't worry, everyone, these are all the enemy's blood. How was your talk?"

The archers looked at each other, and then looked at Fuuka Koyuki and Asama Santaifu.

Fenghua Xiaoxue didn't say anything.

Asama Santaifu had to bow her head, "Lord Xiyan, I'm so glad that you're okay."

...

Kirigakure Village.

"He woke up..."

"Where's the other one?"

"Wait a few months."

Kimimaro, who had not yet opened his eyes, heard this conversation in a daze.

Three months later, the first person to wake up was Kimimaro.

Although the bandages on his body have not been completely removed, he can already move normally.

In the ward, Kimimaro sat beside Yang Xi's bed, staring at the person on the bed.

When will you wake up?

I haven't asked clearly whether I should call him "sir" or "brother".

Please don't get into any trouble. I don't want to lose again, and I don't want to be alone forever.

Kimimaro prayed silently in his heart.

"Why... not just take that person's eyes?"

"...Elder Yuanshi may have other plans."

In the corridor, scattered discussions drifted into Kimimaro's ears, and his brows were furrowed.

Whose eyes are they going to take?

It seems that the only people with special eyes are...

Suddenly, Kimimaro remembered the first time he met Yang Xi.

Those eyes...

"No, I can't let them do that!"

Kimimaro stood up suddenly and wanted to walk out of the ward to explain things to the people outside and stop their thoughts.

However, he fell before he could take a few steps.

Looking at the bandages tangled around his body, Kimimaro sighed dejectedly, "I'm still too weak..."

Chapter 75 Jiraiya Enters the Bath

There was a knock on the door.

"I'm in."

Seeing no one respond, Mei Terumi pushed the door open and walked in.

Kimimaro sighed and sat back on his bed.

Mei Terumi walked over, touched his head, and asked, "Kimimaro, how is your recovery going?"

Kimimaro ignored her and did not slap her hand away.

Mei Terumi was not discouraged. With infinite tenderness on her face, she leaned over and asked, "Kimimaro, do you want to go to school? There are many children of your age there. I can be your guardian and take care of you."

"What is a guardian?" Kimimaro asked calmly.

"A guardian is someone who is responsible for protecting you." Mei Terumi said softly.

"Protect?" Kimimaro murmured, as if he had thought of something, and he stared straight at Mei Terumi.

He stared at her for a long time without saying anything. Mei Terumi, who originally had no idea what was going on, felt inexplicably guilty and embarrassed under such a gaze, and the smile on her face could no longer be maintained.

"Kimimaro?"

Kimimaro looked in the direction of Yang Xi with a gloomy look in his eyes.

"The smell in the hospital is too uncomfortable. It's not suitable for recuperation. I want to take him somewhere else."

Mei Terumi thought about it carefully and decided that given Hinata Haruki's current condition, she only needed daily injections of nutrient solution, so it would be fine even if she went to another place to heal her wounds.

I just hope he can wake up sooner.

Otherwise, Master Yuan would lose his patience and might send someone to dig out his eyes.

Among the results they expected, the best result would naturally be to wait until Hinata Yangxi woke up and make him stay in the Hidden Mist Village willingly.

He had been severely injured by the Tailed Beast Ball, and even if he survived, his future achievements would probably be limited.

It would be better to just live out your retirement in peace in the Hidden Mist Village.

The transplanted bloodline limit cannot be inherited to the next generation, but the original bloodline can be passed on.

In the future, there may be a Byakugan bloodline limit clan other than Konoha Hyuga.

If all else fails, I'll just resort to the worst option and just take away his eyes.

Many thoughts flashed through her mind, and Mei Terumi nodded and said, "Then let him go to my house to recuperate."

Kimimaro tentatively agreed.

Mei Terumi's house is very big, and she can arrange a room for each person with a small yard.

Despite this, Kimimaro still chose to live in the same room with Yang Xi and stay by his side every day.

Another ten days passed, and Kimimaro no longer needed to be bandaged.

In the yard, in front of a human-shaped wooden stake, Kimimaro pulled out two bones from his body.

The wound caused by the broken bone heals in just a moment.

Seeing this scene, Mei Terumi couldn't help but be amazed.

After thinking for a while, she took out a kunai and threw it in the direction of Kimimaro.

Kimimaro swung his bones to block.

Click~

The kunai broke with a sound, but there was no trace of anything on the white bones in Kimimaro's hand.

"Kimimaro, although your body has basically recovered, it is still not suitable for high-intensity training now." Mei Terumi comforted him gently.

"I have to become stronger." Kimimaro said without turning his head.

Mei Terumi nodded silently, then said: "If you want to become stronger, it is best to receive systematic education..."

Before she could finish her words, Kimimaro looked at her coldly and interrupted, "I have to stay with him."

Mei Terumi sighed silently.

How could such a pure and persistent child appear in a family like the Kaguya clan, which is fanatical about battle and bloodthirsty...

...

The country of soup.

"Jiraiya and Uzumaki Naruto appeared in the territory of the Land of Hot Springs. The destined meeting is about to happen." In the palace, the White Zetsu had strange smiles on their faces.

"Finally, I don't have to eat caterpillar feasts all the time." Outside a town, Naruto followed Jiraiya and exclaimed loudly.

"Well, you've worked hard. Teacher will take you to relax now." Jiraiya smiled.

Although Naruto is being trained, he cannot be left in Myoboku Mountain forever.

After all, Naruto is in the period of growth, and his diet needs to be diversified, and he cannot eat only one kind of protein.

If you live with a group of toads all the time and pick up their habits, it would be terrible.

Therefore, after his injuries recovered, Jiraiya took him back to the Ninja World to gain experience in various places.

"When you go out to play, you definitely can't miss the country of hot springs. The hot springs here are the most famous. Just take a bath and your whole mood will become relaxed. And you might even have a beautiful encounter."

While they were on the road, Jiraiya introduced him to the customs and cultures of various countries.

Soon, the two entered a busy and lively street.

There are all kinds of shops and goods, which are dazzling and eye-catching.

All kinds of passers-by passed by, including ninjas, samurai, ronin, wealthy people, commoners, and different men and women. Naruto couldn't help but sigh, "It turns out that there is such a lively place outside of Konoha."

Jiraiya nodded and explained, "I heard that the Kingdom of Hot Springs and the Kingdom of Frost developed their economy together, which attracted many foreigners to come."

"I saw the ninjas from Konoha, including Sand, Thunder... Sensei Jiraiya, look at their forehead protectors."
