Escape From Konoha Chapter 512

  Chapter 512 Wind Rises

   "Sasuke, are you awake?"

  When Sakura opened the door and came in, she saw that Sasuke was not lying on the hospital bed at this time, but sitting there, waking up from a lethargy.

  Seeing that it was Sakura coming in, Sasuke felt his back ache all over, but he still nodded his head to reassure Sakura.

   "Is the finals over yet?"

   "Yes, the finals are over."

  Sakura hesitated for a moment, but said it anyway.

  Considering that Sasuke's physical condition is not very good at this time, she still didn't say anything about Naruto's entry into the finals.

  She faintly felt that there was a fierce competition between Sasuke and Naruto.

  If Sasuke learns that Naruto got better results than him in the end, he will inevitably affect his mood because of his pride.

  Sakura thought it would be better to wait for Sasuke to be discharged from the hospital before talking about it.

   Fortunately, Sasuke just asked casually, and didn't delve into this matter, which made Sakura heave a sigh of relief.

   "I didn't know why before, but suddenly I felt someone talking in my ear..."

  Sasuke held his forehead that was beginning to ache a little, with a look of doubt on his face.

   "It's probably the doctor here."

  Sakura didn't care, and came over to comfort her.

  Sasuke didn't refute, but he had a faint feeling that the person who spoke in his ear just now didn't look like a medical ninja who treated his injuries.

  However, Sasuke didn't delve into this kind of matter. Although he felt back pain now, for some reason, his body became lighter than before.

   Is it because of psychological effects?

   Sasuke didn't understand what was going on, and he didn't pay much attention to the loss in the final.

   It can only show that his strength is still insufficient and needs further polishing.

   After all, under the guidance of Kakashi, he has been here for the past few years, and he has never won head-on once.

   Such a failure is not enough to defeat his confidence.

   "Sasuke, you should take a good rest. Teacher Kakashi will come to see you later. I'll go to see Naruto first. His injury seems to be quite serious."

   After talking with Sasuke for a while, Sakura and Sasuke thought that Naruto also needed her own care, so she wanted to visit him.

   "Well, go ahead. I need some quiet rest too."

  Sasuke nodded, just frowning, thinking about something seriously, maybe summing up his various shortcomings in the battle.

  Sakura didn't say anything. After pouring Sasuke a cup of hot water, she quickly left the ward and went to Naruto.

   I don't know how long it took, Sasuke kept sitting on the hospital bed until the pain in his body began to ease, and then he tried to get out of bed, but just as he moved his body, suddenly a piercing pain rushed into his mind, making him gasp.

   "I advise you not to get out of bed easily."

  Kakashi's figure suddenly appeared from the window, and it was unknown when it appeared there. The window was opened, and warm wind was blowing in from the outside.

   "Have you been eavesdropping for a while?"

   Sasuke snorted softly.

   "Oh, did you see that?"

   "No, it's just based on your sneaky habits."

  Let's not talk about whether he could detect Kakashi's figure in his heyday, but Sasuke understands that he has no ability to detect Kakashi's traces just because of his current poor state.

  But thinking of Kakashi's usual elusive performance, Sasuke said this based on the most basic judgment.

   "...you are still so unreasonable."

  Kakashi sighed helplessly.

   "Has Naruto made it to the finals?"

   Sasuke was silent for a moment, then asked suddenly.

   "Why do you think so?"

   "Because of Sakura's hesitant expression, she is taking care of my emotions. Moreover, her stay here is too short. Normally, she would definitely try to stay here, but she didn't do that. Instead, she was avoiding something and walked away when she saw that I was fine."

  The light in Sasuke's eyes was very pure, as if he had seen through the essence of the matter.

   Although not boasting, Sasuke knows how popular he is among girls of the same age.

  Sakura has always been undisguised about her love for her. This kind of thing can be seen by even a slow-witted idiot like Naruto, let alone him.

   It's just that he's not at all interested in relationships or anything like that.

   In other words, there is no time and qualifications to be interested.

  There are too many things on his body, so much that he doesn't want to waste energy on such boring things as falling in love.

  Because it will not help his revenge, it will only be a drag on him.

   Therefore, he wants to be close to Naruto who has been chasing him more than Sakura.

   Only in this way can he become stronger and get closer to revenge.

   "I said you, aren't you a little too self-righteous?"

  Kakashi scratched his head.

   "I just know what I'm doing and what I'm going to do in the future. So, what's the result?"

  Sasuke looked directly at Kakashi's listless eyes.

   "As you guessed, Naruto entered the finals, but lost to Aya Chiba from the Oni Land, missing the championship."

   Kakashi was outspoken.

  He is different from Sakura, he will take care of Sasuke in another way and promote his growth.

   "Really? It seems that the things in his body have given him a lot of help."

   Sasuke seemed to be implying something.

   "Can you already see this step?"

  Kakashi was slightly surprised.

   "I know Naruto's foundation very well. If he wants to reach the finals, then he can only rely on that kind of thing. Because the players behind will only become stronger one by one. Based on real materials, the current Naruto is still too young."

  Sasuke acknowledged Naruto's usual hard work, but everything needs a gradual process.

  As a teammate, he knows exactly what Naruto's strengths and weaknesses are.

   That's why he can see clearly where Naruto's strength is.

  Naruto's strength is for those who have no means against him, but in the face of real monsters, his weakness will be infinitely magnified.

   Moreover, the no-kill rule in this final also gave Naruto this type of ninja a lot of room to maneuver.

   Kakashi was satisfied with Sasuke's analysis.

   "It seems that I don't need to comfort you."

   "Although I feel a little upset in my heart, if you lose, you lose. There is nothing to say. So, what is in Naruto's body? It is more evil than Orochimaru's chakra..."

  Sasuke's expression became solemn, and he looked at Kakashi without fear, wanting to know the answer.

  Kakashi and Sasuke looked at each other for about three seconds, then slowly said: "Tailed beast."

   "Tail Beast? I remember it was..."

  "There are nine tailed beasts in this world, and eight of them belong to the ninja villages of the five great kingdoms of fire, wind, earth, water, and thunder. The last tailed beast belongs to Takiin Village in the country of Taki, but I heard that Takiin village lost their tailed beasts during the third Ninja World War. The kingdom of ghosts was not assigned to the tailed beasts because of its late rise. It is also the strength of contemporary people."

   "Is that so?"

  Sasuke knew that the Tailed Beast was a powerful creature condensed from pure chakra, but he didn't expect his teammates to have such a sensitive identity.

  Naruto is an important tail beast weapon in the village.

   It can be said to be a person, and it can also be said to be a...weapon!

   Very much in line with the traditional definition of a ninja as a tool.

   "You should have heard the name of the tailed beast. It is called the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox. Gaara, who fought Naruto before, is also Jinchuriki. There is a sand-tailed guardian crane sealed in his body."

  After hearing Kakashi's words, Sasuke opened his eyes wide.

   Then thinking of Gaara's half-beast body when he competed with Naruto, his face became serious.

   "It is difficult to judge the strength of Jinchuriki with common sense. With the violent fluctuation of emotions, they will release the tailed beast chakra in their bodies. If they are not controlled, the tailed beast will directly descend in a full body posture. For most ninjas, it will be a terrible disaster."

   "Don't use this kind of words to comfort me, I am not a child."

   Just like he can use special chakra, then, the groups with special power in this world can say no more, but say less and no less.

  Especially the finalists, everyone has their own special skills.

   Sasuke never thought he would be the only ninja to enjoy special services.

  You have self-knowledge, and you are still far from those ninjas with top strength.

   "As long as you understand."

   "Next, I will further improve Chidori, and extend Chidori according to my method. In addition, about the issue of immortality... Are you really sure that the ninja cats who signed a contract with the Uchiha family possess the so-called immortality?"

   Sasuke wanted to confirm this.

  Naruto signed a contract with Mt. Miaomu in the Three Holy Lands. Maybe he will learn some kind of fairy art in the future.

  Although he doesn't know what senjutsu is, Sasuke wants to use more power to arm himself and make himself stronger.

   "This one, you have to dig it yourself, I just heard about it."

  Kakashi squinted his eyes and smiled, which made Sasuke feel extremely annoying.

   It was this kind of mystical style again, which made Sasuke very upset.

  If it wasn't for his inferior strength, he would really like to punch Kakashi hard in the face.

   "However, there may not be much time left for you to grow steadily in Konoha."

  Kakashi turned around, looked at the blue sky above his head through the open window, and became meaningful.

  Sasuke's eyes fell on Kakashi's back, and his brows frowned slightly.

What does it mean?

  What does it mean that there is not much time left for him to grow steadily in Konoha?

  Is something big going to happen to Konoha?

   "After returning to Konoha, I may disappear for a while. At that time, you can adapt to the situation and stabilize Naruto and Sakura for me, so that they don't act rashly."

"What's the meaning?"

   "There will be huge changes in the upper layer of Konoha."

  Kakashi left this nonsense and disappeared from the room.

  Sasuke's eyes widened, full of shock.

  The upper layer of Konoha...big change?

   Immediately thought of something, is it about the next Hokage?

   Sasuke's guess is understandable.

  Because the Sandai Hokage in the village is too old, I can occasionally learn from gossip in the village that the Sandai Hokage's physical fitness is declining day by day, and it will not be surprising when he becomes tired.

  Then, it is very necessary to decide the candidate for the next Hokage.

  Kakashi...What role will you play in it? Sasuke looked at the direction of Kakashi's departure, and was confused for a while.

   Afterwards, Sasuke was relieved.

   That is, with his current status, it seems that he is not enough to intervene in such disputes.

  Whether he can become a Chunin is still unknown. If there is a huge change in the village's upper echelon, it is something that the Junin is qualified to consider.

   Forget it, I'll follow Kakashi's instructions and practice safely. Sasuke thought so.

  No matter what happens in the village, it is impossible to involve him, an unknown person.

   "It turns out that such an interesting thing happened when I was not around?"

  After the awards ceremony, the joint Chunin exam naturally came to an end. In the simple conference room, only Shiraishi, Ayane and Liuli were here.

   Obito took Lin to heal his wounds. Judging by the extent of Lin's mental trauma, it may take some time to recover.

   After hearing what Shiraishi saw and heard in Sasuke's spiritual world, Ayane suddenly showed an interesting smile on his face.

   "I remember that Indra is the ancestor of your Uchiha clan, right?"

  Ayane looked at Liuli.

   "So what? Anyway, he is already dead, and now he may be out of his wits."

   Liuli shrugged his shoulders. Judging from the origin of the blood, Indra is indeed the founder of the Uchiha clan.

  But the Uchiha clan is not bad for this ancestor, and even Uchiha Madara doesn't have much respect for her. Naturally, she doesn't have much feeling for an ancestor like Indra who doesn't know how many generations have passed.

   At most, I feel that a very powerful ancestor died, and I will remember it a little later.

   Apart from this, there is not much fluctuation.

   "Tsk, it's really ruthless, forget it, let's discuss what to do next? According to Shiraishi-kun, Sasuke Uchiha is the reincarnation of Indra this time, and Madara Uchiha should be the reincarnation of Indra last time. So the question is, who is the reincarnation of Asura?"

   Ayane asked the key to the problem.

   "The current Asura reincarnator has a suspected target, but it is still not completely sure. But the previous Asura reincarnator, if the prediction is good, should be the first generation of Hokage Senju Hashirama. Because he is the most powerful opponent in Madara's life, and he is also the descendant of Asura."

   Shiraishi said.

  According to the characteristics of Indra and Asura attracting and fighting each other, this is the most reasonable speculation.

   "The **** of ninjas? So, Shiraishi-kun has been wondering for a long time why, among the Senshou clan, only the first generation of Hokage can use wood escape ninjutsu."

  Ayane thought of a hypothesis that Shiraishi made when he was still in Konoha.

  If the so-called power of Asura is involved, Ayane's expression can't help but become serious.

   Madara in his old age can still exert unparalleled strength, even if it is for a short time, but it also caused the three of them to suffer a lot at that time.

  The power of the first generation of Hokage, who was so powerful, and the power of Mudun should be so great...It's hard to imagine.

  If this power is triggered by Asura, then everything makes sense.

  Only the Thousand Hands who are parasitized by Asura can use Wooden Dungeon.

   "Yes, for this reason, I have also investigated a lot of information about the Thousand Hands Clan, but there are still many things that don't make sense about the source of Mu Dun."

  As a researcher, Baishi will naturally explore a matter to the end, even if it is some side details, he always wants to restore it and explore the truth.

  Unfortunately, there are too many ancient documents that were lost or damaged due to wars.

  Even with the power of the kingdom of ghosts, there has been little progress in this regard.

   "The Thousand Hands have retired for many years, the reincarnation of Ashura, wouldn't it be Master Tsunade?"

   Ayane had a whim.

   Baishi and Liuliju looked at her speechlessly.

   Tsunade... really dare to think.

   "Anyway, the age difference between the two is too much, and Tsunade-sensei can't afford to target an orphan of the Uchiha clan. Don't forget, the descendants of Ashura, in addition to the Senju clan, also have the Uzumaki clan. They are also the clan that inherits the blood of Asura."

   Baishi reminded.

   "Uzumaki Xianglin? This time the ages are matched, and the two of them fought in the previous game. So, in this reincarnation, Indra won."

   Ayane guessed here again.

   "I think Konoha's little yellow-haired ghost is more similar."

   Liuli had no choice but to say something with a headache, but also had to admire Ayane's brain.

   "Uzumaki Naruto? That kind of stupid guy, is it impossible?"

   Ayane frowned.

   "His chakra feels too bright, like a light bulb."

   Liuli continued to replenish.

  Baishi also nodded in agreement and said: "So I said it just now, but it's just a suspicion... What the specific truth is, we need to dig further. Compared with this, what is more important now is to find out what Heijue is."

   Both Ruri and Ayane became dull.

  An ancient creature that has lived for thousands of years is still hiding in the dark of the ninja world and stirring up wind and rain. Anyone who hears it will find it troublesome.

  From this point of view, the speculation that Hei Jue is a mutated individual of Bai Juezhong is completely wrong.

   "Is the Heijue mentioned by Indra really the same thing as the Heijue we know?"

   Ayane asked in disbelief.

   "That's why it is necessary to investigate its details. Indra said, you can try to investigate from Otsutsuki Kaguya."

   "This difficulty is a bit too high."

  The Kingdom of Ghosts has been collecting ancient documents, especially various legends from ancient times.

   But it is a pity that even though countless manpower and financial resources have been consumed, the understanding of the Sage of the Six Paths is still very limited.

   Not to mention, Otsutsuki Kaguya earlier.

  All traces of Otsutsuki Kaguya may have been erased by the Sage of the Six Paths thousands of years ago, and he did not want to show it to the world.

   "I know it's very difficult, but if the black soul we know and Indra's black soul are really the same existence, then we can't let it go."

  Actually, Shiraishi also has doubts about this kind of thing.

  However, with the attitude of preferring to believe what is there, it is necessary to investigate the real details of Heijue.

  He believed that if Hei Jue really planned something, there would definitely be some clues left behind.

   "Let Kakashi pay attention to the documents left by the Senju Clan at Konoha, and we will also proceed at the same time to start with Otsutsuki Kaguya. Let's triple the manpower of the archaeological troop."

   Shiraishi thought for a while and said.

   In the absence of major events, he needs to sit in the kingdom of ghosts and will not leave easily.

   Moreover, the archaeological team of Ghost Country has already formed, and professional matters should be handled by professionals.

   "Please discuss the specific matters first. I'm going to see that kid named Kaguykunmaro. Terumi Mei should be waiting anxiously."

   After speaking, Shiraishi left the conference room.

  When it was about to get dark, the staff of the guild hall began to clean the scene.

   Baishi came to the special ward in the guild hall.

  Because Jun Ma Lu fell down not because of serious injuries, but because of some special illness, so he was arranged here.

   Entering the ward, Shiraishi saw three people in the ward.

  In addition to Terumi Mei, the agent Mizukage who is about to assume the position of the Fifth Mizukage, there is also Kirigakure Kami Nintoji Mina no Zhan, who is a newcomer to the ranks of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen in recent years.

  He was carrying a beheading knife, his eyes were sharp, and although only half of the eyebrowless face was exposed, it gave off a very ruthless taste.

  The third person is Kaguykun Maro who is the patient.

  He was lying on the hospital bed with a pale face, with a respirator on his face, looking extremely weak, and the chakra in his body was also very disordered, as if out of control.

   "Sorry, it's late to deal with some things over there."

   "It's okay, it's our trouble."

  Terumi Mei didn't care, it was their side who took advantage of Shiraishi's busy schedule.

  Shiraishi wasn't too polite, and it wasn't the first time he and Terumi Mei met. The two parties have a very close cooperative relationship, so don't worry too much about this trivial matter.

  Baishi stepped forward, put his hand directly on Junmaru's chest, infiltrated his celestial chakra into Junmaru's body, and checked Junmaru's condition, so that he could intuitively understand Junmaru's physical condition.

   About two minutes passed before Shiraishi took back his celestial chakra.

  During this period, Terumi Mei and Zabuza did not speak to avoid disturbing Shiraishi.

   "Do you have his previous detailed medical report?"

   Shiraishi frowned and asked.

   Terumi Mei gestured to Zabuza with her eyes.

  Zen Buzhan handed the medical records that had been prepared in front of Baishi.

  Baishi has ten lines at a glance, and after a quick scan, he can understand clearly.

"how?"

   Terumi Mei was in a nervous mood.

   "It's very tricky. I want to ask, did the Kaguya clan have patients with the same condition before?"

   Bai Shi closed the medical report and asked Mei Ming.

   "This... I don't know much about it. According to the family history records of the Huiye clan, the above descriptions of those who awakened the bone veins are basically summed up as "died young". Whether there are patients with the same disease, we have no way of knowing."

   Terumi Mei said helplessly.

  Obviously, regarding these considerations of Baishi, Wuyin Village also investigated, but they didn't gain much.

   "Then, can Kimaro's illness be cured?"

   "It's not a question of whether it can be cured. His disease is very strange, and I'm not sure. I have three options here."

   Baishi pondered for a moment.

   "Which three are they?"

   "The first one is to give up being a ninja directly."

   Unsurprisingly, this proposal was clearly unacceptable.

  So, Baishi quickly gave a second plan: "The second plan, I will remove his bone veins. His condition is caused by the blood inheritance limit of the corpse bone veins. As long as the corpse bone veins are removed, he can return to normal."

  This plan also made Terumi Mei frowned.

   "What about the third option?"

   "Suppressed with drugs, but if he continues to use the ability of blood inheritance limit for a long time, I am afraid he will not be able to live beyond thirty years old."

   Baishi quickly gave a third plan.

   All three options have advantages and disadvantages.

   Terumi Mei thought for a while, and was about to say something, when Kimaro's weak voice came from beside him:

   "Mr. Shiraishi...I choose the third treatment plan..."

  Kimaro's words made Shiraishi's eyes turn to him.

   "Are you sure? That won't make you live past thirty."

  Thirty years old, for this era, dying at this age is considered short-lived.

   "Well, I'm sure... Yakursama took me out of the cage and let me see a brighter future. I want to continue to use my blood to inherit the boundary and fight to protect Kirigakure..."

   Junmaro looked at the light on the ceiling, although his tone was weak, but there was unwavering conviction in his words.

   "Really? Don't worry, I will do my best to help you live a few more years. And, maybe when you are thirty years old, my medical ninjutsu will go further, and I will be sure to cure your illness completely."

   These are just Shiraishi's words of comfort, but Jun Malu still said gratefully:

   "Excuse me, Mr. Shiraishi... Please help me with the operation..."
