Escape from konoha 105
🕑 Added 2023-09-22 05:26:41 +0000 UTCChapter 105 Premeditated
In the deep underground cave, only a faint light source gathered from nowhere can illuminate this place.
"Master Madara."
A creature named 'White Zetsu' emerged from the ground and respectfully addressed the white-haired old man sitting on the wooden chair.
"It's White Zetsu, what's the matter?"
The old man woke up from his sleep and immediately discovered the existence of White Zetsu.
"Master Madara, I don't know if this matter is very important. When I was investigating the Land of Wind, I found that Hidden Sand Village is actively preparing supplies in secret, and there are still a lot of supplies."
White Zetsu told the old man named 'Madara' what he found out.
After listening to White Zetsu's simple narration, there was a hint of understanding in Madara's eyes, and he murmured in a low voice:
"So that's it, is it coming again, war..."
"War?"
White Zetsu tilted his head, it was hard for him to understand why Madara made such a judgment with his intelligence.
Madara did not explain this to White Zetsu, but he believed that with his many years of life experience, Sand Village must be planning the third ninja war.
In the ninja world, there is never a shortage of careerists.
It has only been a little over five years since the last ninja war, and a new war will come again soon.
It can be said that the upcoming ninja war this time is a continuation of the last unfinished war, and it is inevitable.
Therefore, Madara was not at all surprised to get this news from White Zetsu. Instead, he thought that this kind of thing was reasonable and not worth making a fuss about.
As long as human beings are alive, war is inevitable, there will be bloodshed, and there will be sorrow.
And this kind of karma is a chain of curses that cannot be broken by humans themselves.
"Ahem... Hashirama, the one-country-one-village system we established back then is just repeating the tragedy of the Warring States Period..."
Seeing the ninja world caught in the war and unable to extricate themselves, Madara suddenly thought of many things.
My childhood dream, my promise with that man, in retrospect now, this world has been repeating the tragedy of the Warring States Period.
Because the longer you live, the more you understand the sadness of this era.
He escaped from a battle in the Valley of the End by faking death, and he can see more clearly the nature of this sad world full of hatred, full of tyranny, and full of pain than his dead friend Senju Hashirama.
The previous two ninja world wars also proved this point. One country and one village are useless. I am the same as the dead ninja god. If this continues, nothing can be protected.
White Zetsu stood aside listening to Madara's murmur, but scratched his head in embarrassment.
Madara-sama is good at everything, but he always likes to miss the past and say some incomprehensible words, and every time he misses the past, he will always talk about the existence of 'that man'.
'That man' is very important to Madara-sama.
Maybe this is a common problem of old age.
The older people are, the more they talk, and the more they like to miss people and things in the past.
If he thinks this way, White Zetsu feels that Madara's current behavior is a normal reaction instead.
"White Zetsu, is it still impossible to infiltrate the Uchiha clan?"
Madara thought for a while, and asked what he was most concerned about, that is, what happened to Konoha's current Uchiha clan.
Now in this family, is there any successor who can bear his own "will" and act under the name of "Uchiha Madara" in the future to complete a certain plan.
"Yes, Madara-sama. I sent two white zetsu last month, but the result was still the same as before. As soon as They got close to the Uchiha clan, They suddenly disappeared mysteriously. We don't know what happened there."
White Zetsu shook his head helplessly, and answered Madara's question.
To be honest, in the minds of the surviving White Zetsu at this moment, the Uchiha clan has long been reduced to an untouchable forbidden zone.
White Zetsu, who was lurking there, suddenly disappeared mysteriously on the first day of work, without even making a sound.
Continuing like this, not only will you not get any useful information, but you will also lose a lot of it in vain.
Other than that, it doesn't do them any good.
After listening, Madara just nodded and didn't speak.
Although he is more eager to know what happened to the current Uchiha clan, Madara knows that the more critical this is, the less he can be controlled by anxiety. He needs to think calmly and carefully handle these unexpected obstacles in the original plan.
Selecting a suitable 'successor' from the Uchiha clan is just to ensure that the plan can be implemented without fail, and let him regard this as part of the plan.
However, there are many alternatives. After all, in his current state, he is just hanging his last breath. It is normal for accidents to happen anytime.
In order to ensure the implementation of the plan, he still has many backup plans that he has not used, so that when an unexpected situation occurs, he can use other methods to remedy it.
"By the way, what is that guy Tobi doing? Why didn't you see anyone else here?"
Tobi is also a member of White Zetsu, different from ordinary White Zetsu, Tobi is the only White Zetsu who has a "name" among White Zetsu.
Madara still pays more attention to him. With Tobi's ability, most ninjas in the ninja world are not his opponents.
After all, Tobi inherited the Wood Style ninjutsu of that man—Senju Hashirama. Even if it can’t be compared with Senju Hashirama himself, for ninjas in this era, that level of Wood Style is enough.
“When I came back, I saw that guy was having a **** experience outside. He said that today he must know what it feels like to defecate, and he wrote a thousand-word testimonial at the end.”
( defecate means - to get rid of waste from the body; to go to the toilet )
White Zetsu answered Madara's question truthfully.
At the same time, he looked at Madara with hopeful eyes. In fact, like Tobi, he also wanted to know what it feels like to defecate.
Who told them to never have an excretory system?
Every time I do surveillance, I feel itchy when I see the surveillance target going to the bathroom, and I really want to know what it is like to defecate.
Madara-sama, who has obtained the power of everything, can be said to be the most powerful ninja in this ninja world. He should know what it feels like to defecate.
After all, he is the strongest ninja in the ninja world.
Although White Zetsu doesn't understand the inevitable connection between the strongest ninja world and defecation.
I just thought that Madara must know the answer to this kind of thing.
"..."
Madara stared at White Zetsu without blinking, and White Zetsu also looked at Madara with innocent and harmless eyes.
The atmosphere fell silent like this.
Finally, Madara turned his head first, looked forward and whispered:
"After the war starts, send someone to Konoha to investigate. If you still can't infiltrate the Uchiha clan at that time, Then focus on Nagato."
After Madara gave such an order, he closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep without answering the question White Zetsu was wondering about.
Now he can only stay in this kind of place. Once he leaves here, he is an ordinary old man who is at the mercy of others. Most of the time he spends in hibernation, consuming the vitality in his body to a minimum.
White Zetsu saw Madara closing his eyes and resting again, showing a regretful expression.
I also know that Madara needs enough time to sleep now. After Madara closed his eyes, White Zetsu temporarily gave up on learning what it feels like to defecate from Madara's mouth, so he sneaked into the ground and disappeared, and went to work on his own affairs.
•••
On the operating table, Shiraishi's eyes were full of interest, carefully observing the humanoid creature covered in white skin.
Although it is unbelievable that there is such a strange life form in the Ninja World, Shiraishi is even more curious about how this kind of creature survives and maintains life activities.
In fact, even if this kind of guy didn't sneak into the Uchiha clan's underground, Shiraishi was curious about this existence.
Compared with the people behind the scenes, Shiraishi now pays more attention to the creature's life.
If the secret can be resolved, Shiraishi feels that it will be of special significance for him to understand the essence of chakra.
Because compared to normal humans, the internal life structure of this creature is more like a plant, that is, a real 'vegetative person'.
The root of this plant-like life creature should be the power of Wood Style.
Therefore, Shiraishi has no sense of guilt at all for conducting human experiments on this creature.
Because it is like studying plants, and Shiraishi, as a human being, naturally cannot empathize with plants.
Whether this kind of creature will feel pain or have human values is still a questionable question.
"Unfortunately, this kind of meager power of Wood Style can't reproduce the real Wood Style..."
Shiraishi looked at the life energy stored in the test tube, which contained a meager power of Wood Style.
The extraction technique is not difficult, the difficulty is how to make the human body adapt, even the minimum amount of Wood Style power is difficult for ordinary people to control.
Even if this difficulty is overcome, the reappearing power of the Wood Style is still very weak, it can be used to cultivate flowers and trees, but it can't be counted on in battle.
And if it is used to cultivate flowers, plants and trees, it is necessary to conduct human experiments that can be fatal. The energy, resources and final rewards invested will also bear the risk of experimental failure, which is completely out of proportion.
But from another point of view, it is a good choice to neutralize the medicinal properties of other medicinal materials to produce new varieties of cultivated medicines, and sell them in the form of medicines for commercial profit.
In this ninja-themed era, ninja power is important, but so is money.
Most ninjas work hard to perform tasks, and they also run around for money and life. This is also a true portrayal of the ninja world.
After extracting the life energy with the power of Wood Style from the white creature, Shiraishi sealed it in the corresponding place, and then looked at the alarm clock on the table next to it.
"Is it already this point? It's almost time to go."
Putting down the tools in his hand, Shiraishi walked out of the laboratory.
•••
Konoha, aster flower branch drugstore.
Located in the central street of Konoha Village, this is where the pharmacy is located.
This branch pharmacy has been open in Konoha for more than half a year. Currently, it has received an excellent response from the masses of Konoha, and has already occupied the mainstream market of Konoha Pharmaceutical. Although it will not become an indispensable part of Konoha, for Konoha, the branch pharmacy of Aster Flower Company settled here has indeed solved many problems for Konoha.
Even many medicines of Konoha Hospital are purchased directly from Aster Flower Company.
Although the profit of the hospital was sacrificed, Konoha Hospital, in a ninja village like Konoha, which is different from ordinary towns, was originally not established for profit, but to serve the special group of ninjas.
Konoha's medical system is relatively mature, but this is the inevitable result of sacrificing the development of other aspects and focusing on the birth of medical ninjas.
Therefore, the opening of a branch in Konoha by Aster Flower Company has solved Konoha's medical problems to a certain extent, and the excess funds can be invested in other industries.
No matter what, in the one country, one village system, Ninja Village is the most important embodiment of a country's military power.
If konoha hadn’t understood the importance of the medical system, after the Second Ninja World War, it is estimated that Konoha would not devote a lot of energy to the medical system, but to cultivate fighting ninjas.
The new generation of Konoha ninjas emerge in endlessly, but the overall strength, in fact, compared with the Second Ninja World War, the overall strength increase is not very high.
As an assistant teacher of the medical ninja experimental class of the Ninja School, Shiraishi is very aware of the energy and funds that Konoha has invested in improving the medical system over the years, and how many medical ninjas have been cultivated in the end.
The sacrifice rate of Konoha ninjas is decreasing year by year. This is not because the strength of Konoha ninjas has greatly improved, but because medical ninjas have gradually entered the regular ninja squad, which has prevented a large number of ninjas from sacrificing in missions.
In this matter, Konoha's high-level decision is commendable.
Tsunade's proposal is important, but without the help of high-level officials, insisting on prioritizing the cultivation of medical ninjas for several years, and investing a large amount of money with all their strength, it is impossible for medical ninjas to flourish in Konoha.
Although Shiraishi has not seen the Medical System of other villages by himself. But it can be inferred from a lot of information that Konoha’s medical system is the most complete and powerful.
Even Shiraishi was quite tempted, and wanted members of the organization with medical talents to come to Konoha to "study abroad" and learn advanced and complete knowledge of medical ninjutsu.
How to arrange this matter needs to be carefully considered, and there is no rush. Right now, Shiraishi has more important things to do.
In a secret room on the third floor of Konoha's Aster Flower branch pharmacy.
After Shiraishi came here, he just made a cup of tea for himself, and before he picked up the teacup and drank the tea in it, he noticed something, and said to the side:
"Aren't you coming out yet? You don't have to hide so tightly here, do you?"
The curtain in that direction shook silently, and then a girl in a white kimono-style ninja costume appeared in the room.
This girl with pure white eyes and a face that always smiles, this girl is none other than Ayane.
"I thought it was well hidden. I wanted to surprise Shiraishi-kun from behind."
Ayane complained.
"Save the surprise for next time."
Shiraishi smiled dotingly, and probably understood what Ayane's so-called surprise was.
"Compared to the surprise you said, there are more important things to do now. How is the contact with the branch of the Hyuga clan?"
Since it is confirmed that the war will break out soon, no later than next year, the time left for them will not be long or short.
Then, now you must make complete preparations to leave Konoha in advance, so as not to lose your position when the war comes.
Recruiting Hyuga branch members is an important part of the plan to evacuate Konoha.
And this job is naturally given to Ayane, the person in charge, to contact those ninjas who are dissatisfied with the main family.
Shiraishi is quite appreciative of Ayane's ability and strength.
It can be said that without considering the addition of clones, Ayane's strength is undoubtedly superior to his own.
Even if there is a clone to help, I may not be able to deal with it easily.
After all, just like Ruri, Ayane is also practicing sage mode, and the results are remarkable.
Even Shiraishi doesn't know what level Ayane's strength is at the moment, and he only has a vague position in his heart.
But saying that she is the strongest ninja of the Hyuga Clan, Shiraishi thinks this evaluation is not an exaggeration.
"I am already in contact. But those branch members who maintain a neutral attitude, I have not dealt with them, because they may turn against the Main family at any time."
Now, Ayane is not afraid of her secret being known, but she just doesn't want to cause trouble for herself because of her carelessness.
Yes, the current Hyuga Clan is just trouble for her.
I dare not say that I can face all the ninjas of the Hyuga Clan, but if I want to leave, there is no such powerful ninja in the Hyuga Clan that can stop me.
"How many people are there?"
"Now I have contacted a total of four people, and they all expressed their willingness to cooperate. In the end, I think there should be ten to fifteen people. Counting their families, the number should be around forty."
"Forty people?"
Shiraishi thought about it, and to be honest, this number is within the acceptable range.
Because once there are too many people, the retreat speed will be delayed.
After all, when the time comes, we will be facing a ninja village organization with a huge background like Konoha, and all aspects of the retreat plan must be carefully considered to avoid accidents.
Shiraishi thought for a while, and said what was in his heart.
"The retreat time is subject to Konoha dispatching a large number of ninjas to leave the village. At that time, in order to resist the enemy's ninja attack, Konoha will disperse a lot of troops. That is the best time for us to leave Konoha."
After hearing this, Ayane nodded and agreed with Shiraishi's point of view.
The war broke out, and Konoha dispatched a large number of ninjas to the front line to resist the enemy village ninjas from attacking the country of fire, which is an inevitable result.
At that time, the monitoring in the village will be stricter than before, but relatively, the forces remaining in the village will become weaker than usual, and it will be easier to break through the defense.
Shiraishi took out a map on which all the locations of Konoha were drawn, and the important facilities of Konoha were marked with special marks.
"When the war breaks out, I will cause riots in this place and attract the ninjas in the village. You will lead the Hyuga clan to leave as soon as possible, and evacuate according to the established route. At that time, special personnel will respond and cover your whereabouts."
Shiraishi pointed to a spot on the map, which was decided after careful consideration.
"This place is..."
Ayane frowned when she saw that place.
"It's just tentative. In my consideration, there is no place that is more suitable for attracting attention. For Konoha seniors, there is absolutely no room for mistakes here."
Shiraishi explained.
"I understand." Now that Shiraishi has made up his mind, Ayane is inconvenient to say anything, and can only choose to believe in his ability.
"The general plan is not much different from before, and in order to prevent accidents, I have also used some means to delay Konoha Ninja's pursuit time. If there are changes to the plan at that time, I will notify you in advance. Are there any questions?"
At this time, Ayane hesitated for a moment, and her expression became serious.
"I just have one question."
"what is it?"
"How are you going to explain it to Ruri?"
