I sell sweets in Konoha

"..." Marki was silent.

This is really unlikely. Judging from the current attitude of the Fifth Hokage, there is no possibility.

"I hope the future..." Temari sighed and said, "I hope the future will be good."

"hope..."

I hope Sunagakure Village can become stronger again!

Extra: Dealing with the psychic snake after the war

One of the first tasks to be completed in the post-war reconstruction work is to clean up the ruins.

Some things that can be demolished will be demolished, and any rubbish that needs to be removed will be removed.

Contain the bodies and rescue the wounded.

In the ninja world, collecting corpses can sometimes be a huge trouble.Especially when facing the corpses of some very large creatures.

A very big trouble indeed.

For example, the three psychic snakes summoned by Orochimaru.

"It's so big..." Junko stood on the roof and looked at the corpses of the three giant snakes and sighed: "It's much bigger than expected. It's not easy to deal with it."

It is not easy to deal with. The corpse of this giant creature will rot and deteriorate after death, in addition to attracting diseases transmitted by flies.

Deterioration will also produce toxic and harmful gases, which smell bad and pollute the environment.

What's more important is this kind of thing.

"Are you looking for Jiraiya-sama?" Shisui also said a little worriedly: "Summon a psychic beast to help? Or summon a slug to see if it can be moved out."

If such a large creature is to be transported, a creature of the same size or larger is needed.

Maybe the Akimichi family can help, but the Akimichi family's secret techniques are suitable for fighting.

This kind of transport requires long hours of work.

Maybe a psychic beast would be better.

"This... wouldn't it be a bit wasteful if it's just for transportation?" Junko pinched her chin and suddenly had some special thoughts in her mind and said, "Shisui, you know that the protein content of this snake is six times that of beef. And snake venom is not pure poison. If the snake venom is refined."

"Snake venom can be anti-coagulant, hemostatic, anti-cancer, analgesic, and can even have various effects on beauty."

“This thing is truly a good medicine!”

"Look at the sharp fangs in the snake head, they should be the snake's venomous fangs." Junko pointed to the snake head that was chopped off and thrown to the side with its mouth enlarged. "It looks like Jiraiya's frogs." The knife is good, and it should not have damaged the snake's venom glands."

"Go and notify the people in the medical team and the biological research department to collect snake venom! Don't let go of even a drop!"

"Squeeze it all out for me. This is good stuff."

"This..." Shisui said now, not that he had a bad premonition, but that he had a very bad feeling: "This is a ninja snake, and the same..."

The same soldier should have reason to be respected even if he died in battle.

Isn't this a bit too much...

"Go quickly!" Junko urged without giving Shisui any time to talk: "Hurry up and come back after the arrangements are made. I don't want to wait for the snake to cool down completely before collecting it."

"It's not good if it's too late! Konoha is also very poor, we have to make the best use of everything."

'Isn't this... more than making the best use of the material? ' Shisui complained in his heart, but since Godai gave the order, he should do it.

He immediately summoned several ANBU to make arrangements and then followed Junko to the giant snake's side quickly.

"Psychic art." Without saying a word, Junko directly summoned a turtle wearing a white coat, a white apron, a chef's hat and a ladle in his hand.

The turtle that was suddenly summoned was a little confused, but it quickly showed its displeasure.

"You damn girl, are you addicted?!" The turtle said angrily, "Don't you see I'm busy here?!"

"Again, do you want me to work for you for Bai, or for that little... girl... boy... anyway, do you want me to cook for that Bai Jiao?!"

"No~no!" Junko immediately waved her hands and said with a smile, "I'm calling you here for nothing else."

"Chief Dangchu, have you seen this giant snake?!"

"Giant snake?" The chef then noticed that it was something that didn't look like a wall. He looked carefully and then jumped to a high ground and made gestures.

Finally he jumped down and said with his hands behind his back: "This... seems to be a psychic beast that died in battle, right?"

The chef can tell what's going on with the snake at a glance.

Ordinary organisms in nature cannot grow to such a large size, and the size of ordinary organisms is limited simply from the perspective of nutrient acquisition.

But if in some specific environments, huge creatures will appear.

For example, the fairy mountain where I live.

Although there are no such big snakes there, it is still easy to find animals of the same type that are larger than the size of the ninja world, and it can even be a very common phenomenon.

"Why did you call me here?" The chef asked, clasping his hands behind his back, "Just for this psychic snake?"

"I'm thinking..." Junko pinched her chin and said without any concealment: "How can I make this thing the best? Do you want to make it into salt and pepper, make a soup, or make it into a skewer?"

"Such a big snake must be delicious, right?"

"You want to eat?!" The chef looked at Junko with wide eyes.

This...this request is really the first time I've seen it.

Eat this psychic snake...

This...

"You can try each one." The chef, who seemed to have no problem at all, began to think about this problem and said, "I have never cooked such a big psychic beast."

“I really don’t know how to make it taste good.”

The chef's words instantly made Shisui's eyes widen.

This...

have a look!Is this human language? !

Well...no, it's a turtle!It's turtle talk!

But this turtle talk is too outrageous, right? !

"This kid, does he seem to have any objections?" The chef immediately saw through the thoughts of Shisui, who looked ugly and disapproving next to him, and said, "You kid, do you have any better suggestions?"

"This is a psychic beast." Zhisui didn't dare to refute, but he still emphasized it.

"Yes, I know." The chef said seriously: "That's why I want to know how to cook well. You must know that it is not easy for such a psychic beast to grow so big."

"A place that is no longer special and absorbs special energy cannot grow this big."

"This thing is a treasure." Dangchu said as if he had found a treasure: "You know, the energy contained in each piece of meat in this thing is several times more than that of other meat."

"This is not ordinary energy. For ninjas, this thing is a great supplement!"

“A great supplement without any side effects!”

"Nourishes qi and blood. And..." Dangchu whispered to Shisui: "This thing can help your brother become stronger and more majestic, and it may even be beneficial to the next generation."

"But..." Zhisui said, still a little unimaginable: "This is..."

"Hey, you look like a single guy at first glance." Chef Dang shook his head and looked hopeless, then turned to Junko who really wanted to take a bite of the psychic snake meat: "This stuff nourishes yin and kidneys, activates blood circulation and removes blood stasis." , beauty care, hair care, and even natural anti-aging things.”

"Anyway, you have to cook it well."

"But first we need to prepare it. How to preserve it." The chef said slowly and methodically: "This thing is different from ordinary snake meat. It is best to eat it and kill it now."

"It looks like he has been dead for more than an hour, and he has already begun to lose weight."

“Whether it’s to ensure the deliciousness of the meat or to maximize its effectiveness.”

"It's best to freeze it first."

The chef nodded and said, "Yes, let's freeze it first."

"Konoha doesn't have such a big cold storage." Junko shook her head and said, "It can't freeze so much snake meat."

"You silly girl." The chef said angrily, "Can't you make ice cubes yourself? Just freeze them with the ice cubes you made."

"And this is not ordinary snake meat. In order to reduce the loss of natural energy, special ice cubes must be used."

"Ordinary cold storage is completely useless. Your ability is exactly used here."

"Ah... I am just a refrigerator?!" Junko said unhappily: "That kind of refrigerator with legs that can run by itself?!"

"Don't talk nonsense." The chef said impatiently: "You are much better than the refrigerator."

"Wait for me to cut some meat before freezing it."

Shisui watched from the side as the chef carefully selected and cut the best meat from the snake, and watched as Junko separated her body and quickly sealed the snake.

he...

He always had a bad feeling.

There seems to be some unique sense of déjà vu, as if what is going to happen next second has been seen before somewhere.

Where have you seen it?

I can't remember, but I watched the chef get a pot from somewhere, then waved his hands and started the stove.Shisui felt that he must have seen this somewhere before.

This old turtle has no firewood for the stove!

Zhisui soon saw the old turtle waving towards him with a smile on his face, beckoning him to come over.

Shisui was now very sure that he must have understood what he was going to do immediately.

He reluctantly walked over.

"I heard that your Uchiha family is very good at cooking fires." The chef said plausibly: "This is the best meat, so naturally it needs this rootless fire. Your kid should be the top expert in the Uchiha family, otherwise Junko wouldn't know how to cook it. Let you follow her."

"So, the difficult and important task is now entrusted to you."

"Let me start the stove and light the fire. I want to try a salt and pepper snake soup first."

"This dish..."

"Can I refuse?" Zhishui's face turned pale. He hadn't done this job for a long time.I don't want to do this job either. As the dignified leader of ANBU, Shisui...

"You want to cook?" The chef said with a surprised look on his face: "These are the only jobs you can do here, cooking, chopping, washing, and lighting the fire."

"You don't want to light a fire, but you want to cook?" The chef said in surprise, "Are you sure you can cook well?"

"But..." Zhisui racked his brains for a long time and said, "My fire escape is not good at all."

Zhisui said seriously: "I can't play any tricks, I can only do a little bit."

"It doesn't matter." The chef nodded and said, "Just a little bit will be fine."

"I don't need to be so fancy."

"It's enough to just follow orders a little bit."

Extra: The enemy returns to the snake's lair

In Orochimaru's eyes, the only attribute of a person is a 'tool'.There is no need to have any emotions towards people, let alone any compassion.

Therefore, the function of a tool is whether it is easy to use or not, whether it is convenient or not.

Although the only attribute of human beings is 'tools', humans are neither dead objects nor 'tools' with simple logical thinking.Human beings are special 'tools' with complex logical thinking abilities and self-awareness.

And such a special tool has unstable factors such as 'betrayal', 'backlash' and 'resistance'.

But this does not hinder the excellent attributes of human beings as 'tools'.

It has the ability of independent judgment, strong subjective initiative, strong plasticity, is very easy to maintain, and is also very easy to obtain.

The war brought many displaced and homeless people.

For these people, as long as they are given a certain amount of food and shelter, they can become their own 'tools'.

However, because humans are 'tools', there are extremely obvious uncontrollable potential factors.

Therefore, whether a 'tool' is useful also requires identification.

A person who is loyal, has good potential and is highly qualified is the best tool, but there are not many such people.There are many people who are not very loyal, but have good potential and qualifications. They can be regarded as a 'tool' that is handy but needs to be controlled.
