Villages surrounding Kusagakure Village.
"I've heard of the great name of Rock Fist Huang Tu for a long time, and today I finally get to see him in person." The Grass Ninja leader complimented Huang Tu after seeing him.
On the surface, he is the leader of the ninja village, while Huangtu is only the son of the leader of the Iwagakure Village, so his status is higher.
But the reality is not like this. He is just the leader of an ordinary ninja village, while Huang Tu is the son of the leaders of the five major ninja villages and a famous strong man in the ninja world. Their identities are actually equivalent.
Huang Tu nodded slightly in response, without wasting time on polite words, and went straight to the point.
"Now that Konoha ninjas are fighting recklessly in the Land of Grass, I believe you have already accumulated a lot of anger. We at Iwagakure have already made a perfect battle plan to defeat Konoha."
"As long as the plan goes smoothly, not only will the Grass Ninja not be discovered by Konoha and participate in the war, but we, Iwagakure, will also be able to defeat Konoha and save the Grass Country from dire straits."
The Land of Grass borders the Land of Fire. In order to dispel the concerns of the Grass Ninja villages, the Iwagakure ninjas will help the Grass Ninjas disguise themselves as Iwagakure and only need the power of the Grass Ninjas, without the need for the Grass Ninjas to stand head-on with Iwagakure and go to war with Konoha.
The Kusashi leader gave a thoughtful look.
I have to say that the plan from Iwagakure sounds great, both for the Kusagakure and Iwagakure.
In the interests of the Grass Country, if the plan succeeds, the ongoing war on the territory of the Grass Country will disappear, and the Grass Country will not offend the giant Konoha.
From the perspective of Iwagakure's interests, the successful defeat of the Konoha ninja forces would bring Iwagakure fame within the ninja world, weaken the strength of the warring countries, and push the war to the homeland of the Land of Fire.
This seems to be a good plan that can win-win for both parties.
But is the reality really that good?
The Grass Ninja leader thought about the conversation carefully and found that Huang Tu had not said something very important, which was how to definitely defeat the ninja troops of Konoha.
Winning the war is a win-win situation. If you lose, the Kusanagi will even be at great risk of being exposed.
But Konoha's ninja troops are not weak, they are even very strong. The leader of the Konoha Ninja Troops in the Land of Grass is Jiraiya, one of the three famous ninjas who became famous in the Ninja World War. There are also many experienced and senior ninjas among the middle and upper ninjas in the troops.
"The Konoha ninjas are really despicable. We, the Kusanagi ninjas, will definitely do our best to help your village defeat the Konoha ninjas!" The Kusanagi leader agreed to cooperate with an indignant look on his face.
Iwagakure has a plan, and the plan has pitfalls, but he also has his own plans.
If he really joined forces with Iwagakure to attack Konoha just because Konoha was at war in the Country of Grass, then he would not be qualified to be the leader.
If you insist, it was the Iwagakure's declaration of war on Konoha that led to the war between Konoha and Iwagakure in the Land of Grass.
Huang Tu showed a satisfied smile.
Perhaps this war is really an opportunity for Iwagakure to dominate the ninja world and become the number one ninja village. All plans are progressing smoothly.
Huang Tu left two Iwagakure jonin to act as liaisons, and then set out on the journey back to Iwagakure Village.
His mission has been completed, and next it is the work of other Iwagakure ninjas. What he has to do is return to Iwagakure Village and report the mission in detail to Ōnoki.
"Lord Yokogawa Tsutomu, I feel that Iwagakure's plan is not as good as it seems. We have to be careful." After returning to the Kusagakure Village, Musashi spoke when he saw that there were no Iwagakure ninjas nearby.
Yokogawa Tsutomu nodded, "Your feeling is correct. These big ninja villages have never taken us small ninja villages seriously. They say they are cooperating, but they are just looking for a decent weapon on the spot."
"But danger also means opportunity. The Grass Kingdom has been silent for so long, it's time for us to take over."
Tsutomu Yokogawa brought a group of confidants including Wuchang to a remote and dense forest in Kusagakure Village.
As Yokogawa Tsutomu made hand seals, a cave entrance suddenly appeared.
Yokogawa Tsutomu jumped down first without hesitation, and Wuchang and others quickly followed.
"Master Chief!"
The Kusa ninja guarding the underground research base quickly greeted Yokogawa Tsutomu.
Yokogawa Tsutomu nodded in response and looked at a huge box in the middle of the research base that looked a little strange.
There is a human face on each of the four sides of the huge box, and the expressions of the faces in each direction are different. Some faces are full of anger, while others are full of sadness.
Yokogawa Tsutomu walked forward and touched the huge box.
No one knew what material the box was made of. Yokogawa Tsutomu and his trusted aides had used all their ninjutsu to create even a single crack in the box.
"It's just a box that absorbs chakra, but according to legend it has the power to grant any wish."
Yokogawa Tsutomu patted the box, which was as hard as usual, then turned and smiled at his confidants.
"After all, this is the Box of Paradise created by the legendary Six Paths Sage who created the Ninja World." Wuchang had no doubt that the box could fulfill wishes.
Although the Grass Kingdom is in a state of decline now, it was once glorious in history, even if it was for a very short time.
According to the information from the ruins they discovered, the Grass Kingdom suddenly became strong in the distant past because it opened the Box of Bliss that could fulfill wishes, but for some unknown reason it quickly weakened again.
"But even the Six Paths Sage himself seems unable to fulfill all wishes." Tsutomu Yokogawa does not think that the Box of Paradise can fulfill all wishes as the legend says.
If wishes can really be fulfilled at will, then why did the Six Paths Sage disappear and why did the Ninja Clan split and die?
Yokogawa Tsutomu would believe that the Paradise Box can enhance the power of ninjas, but it is nonsense to say that it can fulfill all wishes.
Tsutomu Yokogawa believes that the reason for such rumors is most likely because the Box of Paradise enhanced their power, and the person who opened the box realized his or her wish through the power, which led to the saying of fulfilling wishes.
Wuchang looked at Yokogawa Tsutomu in confusion. There were many people in Kusa no Mi who believed in the legend of the Box of Paradise.
When Yokogawa Tsutomu pushed for cooperation with Iwagakure, he wanted to intensify the war between Iwagakure and Konoha, causing more ninjas to die, in order to obtain nutrients to open the Box of Paradise.
Wuchang was a little confused. Since Yokogawa Tsutomu didn't believe in the legend of the Box of Paradise, why did he still get involved in the war between Konoha and Iwagakure?
"Wishes like immortality are definitely difficult to achieve, but as for small wishes like becoming stronger, I believe it will be no problem." Yokogawa Tsutomu smiled and patted Wuchang's shoulder.
He originally didn't have much idea about the Box of Paradise, but the sudden appearance of Ninja Master Sosuke made Yokogawa Tsutomu change his mind.
Sosuke rebuilt the Ninja Clan with the help of the Ninja Clan's inheritance and overcame the demigod Hanzo, becoming the most powerful man in the Ninja world.
After all, the Box of Paradise is a ninja tool created by the Six Paths Sage, the founder of the Ninja Sect. It can't be much worse than the so-called Ninja Sect heritage.
Tsutomu Yokogawa is gambling. He does not expect that the Box of Paradise can really grant a wish and allow the Kusanagi to directly rule the world.
As long as the Box of Paradise can give him the strength to surpass Sosuke, the Kusanagi will have the foundation for their rise.
…
Sunday.
Konoha Village, Southern Forest.
"Good morning, Kakashi-senpai." Yamato saw Kakashi coming and slightly extended his right hand to greet him.
Kakashi looked at Yamato with a stern face, "You want to be a ninja if you speak so quietly? Speak louder!"
Seeing Kakashi so serious, Yamato subconsciously followed Kakashi's orders and shouted loudly: "Kakashi-senpai! Good morning!"
"Also, I like juniors who greet others with their left hand." Kakashi looked at Yamato carefully and said seriously.
Yamato: ...
Kakashi-senpai, so strict.
Even Danzo Shimura didn't care whether he greeted with his left or right hand.
"Good morning, have a good start in the new day." Kakashi stopped at the right time and encouraged Yamato to start practicing.
Yamato breathed a sigh of relief and began to practice basic breathing by doing various breathing postures.
After about ten minutes, all the disciples arrived.
Nohara Lin, who was worried that the Chouchou fish would be lonely at home, immediately summoned the Chouchou fish to the small river in the southern forest when she arrived.
According to Mu Yue's advice, Nohara Lin did not train the Chouchou Fish like she did the rock dog Riolu. Instead, she took good care of it, helped it take care of its body, and praised the Chouchou Fish to keep it confident in itself.
"Shisui, how did you teach Zoroark ninjutsu?" After teaching Fire Style to no avail, Obito went to Shisui who hatched his ninja beast earlier.
Logically speaking, Kakashi, who was hatched the earliest, should have the most experience, but Obito felt uncomfortable when he thought about Kakashi's expression at that time, so he decisively went to find his family brothers.
"I didn't teach it ninjutsu," Shisui replied, shaking his head.
Obito scratched his hair.
"I think that when they are just born, they should first train their inherent abilities, such as Zoroark's illusion." Shisui gave advice.
First, Shisui felt that there were too many things that ninja beasts did not understand when they were born. Second, Shisui believed that the abilities of ninja beasts themselves had great potential and needed to be explored further.
Shisui studied Zoroark's illusion carefully and found that Zoroark's own illusion ability was very interesting.
The essence of illusion is to use chakra to interfere with the opponent's five senses and make him fall into hallucination.
Based on the nature of illusion, there are many ways to use illusion. There are visual methods that make the opponent hallucinate through what they see with their eyes, and there are auditory methods that make the opponent hallucinate through the sounds they hear.
Most of the illusions that Shisui mastered are visual illusions, and the visual illusions used through the Sharingan can have stronger effects.
Shisui believes that Zoroark's illusion can also be considered visual, but unlike ordinary visual illusions, Zoroark's illusion is strong in that it is cast on one's own body. As long as one sees Zoroark's body after he casts an illusion, one will be instantly caught in Zoroark's illusion.
Although Zoroark's illusion was relatively easy to dispel, the conditions for this illusion were so easy to achieve that Shisui thought a melee would be very useful.
"Let me try." Obito had to practice on his own first, and then during his rest time he continued to think about how to make Charmander stronger.
"It has to be fire after all. Since Kakashi's dog can control the rocks on its neck to attack, maybe Charmander can control the flames on its tail to attack!"
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Obito's mind, and he quickly asked Charmander to try.
Charmander wanted to touch his head, but found that his hands were not long enough, so he could only scratch his face, and then looked straight at Obito.
No matter how much Obito emphasizes it, it's impossible for it to attack with the flame on its tail.
"Fire dragon, fire dragon!"
Charmander waved his arms and tried to explain his difficulties to Obito.
Obito scratched the back of his head, not understanding why Charmander suddenly started dancing.
"Are you saying you want to learn dancing?" Obito stroked his chin, trying to analyze.
Charmander became anxious. He pointed his tail backwards with his short arms and waved his hands frantically.
"Tail, don't you want it anymore?" Obito interpreted Charmander's body movements.
Bang.
Charmander fell to the ground, fainted by the stupid contractor.
"Shisui, can I borrow your Zoroark?"
Seeing that communication between humans and beasts was difficult, Obito had to invite an interpreter.
"Fire dragon, fire dragon." The little fire dragon continued to say that the flame from the tail cannot be used to attack.
"I see." After hearing this, Soraya looked as if he understood.
"What did it say?" Obito asked Zoroark curiously.
"It said it won't attack with its tail flame, and asked you to buy delicious food for the great Lord Zoroark." Zoroark translated with an innocent look on his face.
"Shisui, I'll return the red-haired fox to you." Obito grabbed Zoroark's Fate by the scruff of the neck and brought Zoroark back to Shisui.
He even bought food. Do you think he is stupid? This must be Soraya's own private goods.
Next, Obito continued to explore Charmander's abilities. When he began to question Charmander's proficiency in fire, Charmander opened his mouth and spit out a tiny flame.
Obito had a look of surprise on his face, as if he had already seen the future scene of his own ninja beast beating up the red-haired fox and burning the white-haired dog.
Watching the disciples playing with the summoned beasts during their breaks, Yamato's eyes flickered with envy. If he also had a ninja beast like this, it would be more interesting to live alone.
When he noticed Mu Yue looking at him, Yamato quickly adjusted his expression.
Although he really wanted a summoning beast, Yamato didn't want to trouble Mu Yue, as Mu Yue had already taken good care of him.
"Would you like to have dinner together?" After the training, Kakashi noticed Yamato's lonely figure and asked.
"That's too bad, Kakashi-senpai, don't you have to go home?" Yamato was a little flattered.
"I'm the only one at home, so it doesn't matter when I go back." Kakashi replied calmly.
Yamato was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Kakashi was also an orphan without parents like him.
Perhaps because of their similar identities, Yamato agreed to Kakashi for some unknown reason.
"But this is our first time eating together. As a junior, Yamato, don't you have to express something?" Kakashi hinted.
Yamato subconsciously touched the shriveled wallet in his pocket.
He has no parents and has never done any missions, and only has a little living allowance from the roots.
"Let me ask you, senior." Yamato said with pain.
If Yamato didn't think that his words might have hurt Kakashi, he would have chosen to refuse to eat with him and leave.
Now Yamato just hoped that Kakashi wouldn't go to a too expensive restaurant, otherwise he would have no money to eat.
But what made Yamato somewhat desperate was that Kakashi did not go to an affordable ramen restaurant, but went to a nicely decorated restaurant.
When it was time to pay the bill, Yamato's hands were shaking as he took out his wallet, and tears were already streaming down his face in his heart.
"Just kidding, the first meal must be treated by the senior." Kakashi took out a few bills and handed them to the cashier.
Yamato looked at Kakashi, who had a calm expression, and stood there in a daze. For a moment, he felt that Kakashi's mask was also very elegant.
