Escape From Konoha

In June, the weather gradually became hotter.

Although it won't be as hot as July or August, the hot air will also make your energy sluggish. Especially for Ayane, whose belly is pregnant with life, her energy seems even more decadent than usual.

"Feiniao, do you think the child in auntie's belly is a brother or a sister?"

On the sofa in the living room, Ayane, who was playing karuta games with Asuka, asked Asuka with a friendly smile.

Asuka was flipping through the flower cards with bright patterns. Hearing Ayane's words, he raised his head and answered without thinking: "I think he is my younger brother."

"Why is it a younger brother? Maybe it's another younger sister."

Ayane asked interestingly.

"Because I want a younger brother, and my sister already has a concubine."

Asuka answered innocently.

Just because I already have a younger sister, I want a younger brother. This is really a simple and easy-to-understand thought.

Although Asuka has the Uchiha surname, his personality is different from most of the Uchiha clan. He is not so bitter and hateful, and his personality does not follow his parents at all.

However, Ayane likes Asuka's temperament very much, because the other person will show her true self and will not play any scheming.

Therefore, Ayane hopes that the unborn child in her belly can become a good child like Asuka.

My childhood was not a happy one, and it could even be said that even basic freedoms were restricted by clan rules.

When she was a child, what she longed for most was to break the chains around her neck, so she didn't want her children to become like her. In the future, she would have the power to make better choices in life, instead of being restricted by the rules and regulations of the world. .

Not sticking to the secular world, that’s what I hope.

Pregnancy starts in March and delivery is probably in December this year or January next year.

In the past few years, because of the busy schedule, I neglected this kind of thing.

Now that the Ninja World War has passed, the thorn in Uchiha Madara's side has been successfully removed. Although it has created a potentially more difficult opponent, for now, life in the Kingdom of Demons has settled down.

However, she probably has no way to participate in the affairs of Kirigakure Village.

Even so, Ayane feels that the problem is not big. The Kirigakure matter has already been decided. Even without her joining, Shiraishi and Ruri can definitely help Yagura win the position of the fourth Mizukage and win over a person for the Kingdom of Demons. Strong support.

Although Kirigakure's power will be weakened for a period of time after the coup, with the size of Kirigakure Village, it will not take a few years to recover.

After all, the power of the five major countries is fundamentally different from the Ninja Village of a small country.

That is the powerful foundation that has cultivated countless outstanding ninjas, which is far inferior to that of the Ninja Village in a small country.

In her current life, apart from doing some simple physical exercises every year, she spends most of her time taking care of the siblings Asuka and Yiji.

Because Liuli had to go out to practice and Baishi had to go to work or work in a research institute, taking care of the children naturally fell into her hands.

But most of the time, Ayane only has Asuka to take care of, and the task is very easy.

Yi Ji doesn't need to take care of her at all. She is much more sensible and smart than Feiniao.

◎

"Ichihime, why would the child born by Aunt Ayane be our younger brother or sister? Aunt Ayane is not our mother."

Asuka, who was playing with building blocks in the spacious toy house, suddenly thought of something and asked his sister Ichiji who was standing aside.

Ayane went to the bedroom to rest because she was mentally exhausted.

Asuka felt that playing games alone was boring, so she came to the dollhouse to play with her sister Ichiji.

"I do not know."

Yiji, who was lying on the ground, flipping through a book, gave a nonchalant answer.

Although she is much more sensible than Asuka, her life experience is not as rich as imagined.

Compared with the concept of money and private matters between men and women, she did not have a detailed understanding of this aspect.

"Yiji, don't you know that too?"

Asuka, who was building blocks, was surprised.

"Why do I have to know?"

"Because Yiji, you know more things than me."

Asuka continued to build blocks and spoke matter-of-factly.

"If you want to know, you can learn to read first, and then go to dad's study to find relevant books and read them."

Ichiji responded like this.

"But reading is very troublesome, and my memory is not good. My mother taught me many times, and I can only write my name and some simple fonts."

Feiniao prefers playing games to reading and learning.

In particular, building blocks are his favorite toys.

Using building blocks of various shapes, you can freely mix and match them to build many interesting things.

For example, houses and animals, and some very interesting things that you don’t even know what they are.

The moment it was built, a sense of accomplishment and pride arose spontaneously.

In contrast, reading and learning are too troublesome.

He longed for the unknown and fun.

"Speaking of which, Yiji, you recognize and learn very quickly. Your parents have praised you more than once."

Asuka uses building blocks to build an extremely majestic castle.

Instead of following the original image on the drawing to achieve a cookie-cutter castle, I let my imagination run wild and build a huge castle that was more magnificent than the one on the drawing.

With its complex and exquisite appearance, you can imagine that Asuka spent a lot of effort and effort on it.

Yiji lay there reading a book and didn't respond.

"Yiji, why don't you speak?"

Asuka holds the last building block and is about to press it on to complete the castle.

Yi Ji closed the book, sat up, looked at Asuka with an evil look, and said in a cold tone: "You are very noisy, brother, can you be quiet a little bit?"

"But……"

Just as Asuka was about to say something, Ichiji stretched out her hand.

Without hesitation, he took away a block from under the castle.

The entire majestic building block castle trembled slightly at first, and then the tremors became larger and trembling, and blocks flew down one after another.

With a snap, the entire castle collapsed in an instant and turned into a pile of wooden blocks, rolling randomly on the floor and no longer existing.

Asuka's face was dull, and the building blocks he was holding fell to the ground.

His nose twitched and tears welled up in his eyes.

Then the sound of birds crying loudly came from the toy house.

"It seems that the castle was not very strong. Only one building block was removed and it collapsed. Such a dangerous and illegal construction is seriously substandard and requires a fine, brother. But I forgive you this time."

Yi Ji held the book and shook the pigtails on her head, turned around and walked out of the dollhouse, leaving her brother Asuka standing there crying loudly.

Go to the pet house and read a book. Ichiji walked out of the dollhouse and thought to herself.

I remember that Lei Mingwan also secretly hid some snacks there.

Shiraishi didn't know what happened at home.

He is currently busy dealing with matters in Konoha. Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas, left Konoha quietly. Even Kakashi didn't know what Jiraiya's purpose was in leaving Konoha.

But based on the available information, there are only two possibilities.

One is to find Nagato who disappeared in the Land of Rain.

Another possibility is to find the whereabouts of him, Liuli and Ayane.

Shiraishi always knew that Konoha would not let them go so easily.

The consequences of defecting with the ninjas of the Uchiha clan and the Hyuga clan were very serious.

Previously, due to Danzo's incident, the Anbu's power had been dispersed. When they were busy, the pregnancy of Kushina Uzumaki, the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki, occurred again, and the Anbu's actions were once again restricted.

Even many Jonin try not to go out, obviously for the protection and escort of Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

But Konoha didn't want to give up on tracking down the three of them, so Jiraiya, the temporarily idle Sannin, had a place to use.

First, Lai Ye is strong enough, and second, Lai Ye also has Miao Mushan as his backing, and he is very good at intelligence work.

In addition, Jiraiya himself is eclectic and can hang out in pubs and sex bars without arousing suspicion, and can get some information that ordinary people have not noticed.

Therefore, dealing with such a guy cannot be taken lightly.

This kind of thing has advantages and disadvantages. As Jiraiya's investigation deepens, Konoha will notice Nagato's movements sooner or later.

In order to regain the autonomy of the Rain Country, Nagato will definitely attack Konoha. Only when Konoha becomes chaotic will he have the opportunity to free the Rain Country from the restrictions of the Fire Country.

Ayane is now pregnant, so she goes to deal with Konoha herself, Shiraishi feels that it is quite reluctant for him and Liuli to work together.

After all, the yellow flashing Namikaze Minato is not an ordinary ninja.

The same trick won't work on him twice.

Shiraishi has to agree that he is the fastest ninja in the ninja world.

When the speed reaches a certain extreme, it means trouble and trouble.

But if Konoha is pulled to the hostile side of Nagato, it might be a good way to make both sides suffer.

"It seems that there is no need to take action personally regarding the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki. Compared to me, Nagato, who wants to get the Kingdom of Rain out of the control of the Kingdom of Fire as soon as possible, is more anxious to cause chaos in Konoha."

Moreover, regarding the matter of Kirigakure, I have to make preparations on my own side. Yakura has sent more than one letter, and will do it in the past two or three months.

At that time, he was obviously too weak to deal with Konoha himself.

Even if you have the ability to deal with Konoha, the Fourth Hokage, the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki, and many Konoha Jonin, it still represents a huge risk.

Unlike dealing with the aging Uchiha Madara, Konoha's power is quite terrifying.

Instead of giving Nagato the opportunity to deal with Konoha, which has attracted Konoha's attention so far, he can achieve the effect of weakening Konoha without spending a single soldier, killing two birds with one stone.

After making this decision, Shiraishi picked up a pen and wrote on the blank scroll, then rolled it up.

Write the contents on the two scrolls respectively and hand them over to the people below.

"The rest of the work is just waiting."

Shiraishi stood up and left the office, heading to the laboratory to continue his research on tailed beasts and zero-tails.

Shiraishi was very concerned about how to apply the power of the tailed beast to the clone, which could effectively improve the strength of himself and the clone.

"Oh, another brother has died. It looks like he died miserably."

In the canyon at the junction of the Rain Country and the Fire Country, a light rain fell.

A white Zetsu died quietly on the roadside with kunai inserted all over his body.

Several Bai Jue emerged from the ground, found the Bai Jue corpse, and began to complain.

"Although he is not a special type of White Zetsu, he can find traces accurately. It seems that he is the guy who can burrow in the soil just like us."

A White Zetsu analyzed it.

"Oh, is he that sinister guy who is similar to Xiao Hei?"

Another White Zetsu responded.

"Anyway, let's get rid of the body first."

The rest of Bai Jue licked their tongues and looked at the dead Bai Jue on the ground, as if they were about to taste some delicious food and couldn't wait.

When he was about to eat the corpse, one of the Bai Zetsu realized something was wrong and stopped him from eating the corpse.

"etc."

"What's wrong?"

"There's something in the body."

The Bai Zetsu who noticed the abnormality came closer, picked up the kunai on the corpse, and with one stroke, cut open the belly of the Bai Zetsu corpse.

There was no blood or internal organs, and there was only a scroll inside.

"What's this?"

"Idiot, it's a scroll."

"I know it's a scroll, why is there a scroll in my stomach?"

"Maybe the enemy wants to convey some information to us."

"Could it be a trap?"

Bai Jue started discussing in a flurry of words.

There is a history of this matter.

In the past, Ruri used White Zetsu as bait and successfully found the location of their master, Uchiha Madara.

This scroll is placed here so suspiciously. It can't be said that it is not a trap. It was placed here deliberately to let them fall into the trap.

However, they were really itching to know what was in the scroll.

So, a Bai Zetsu picked up the scroll, and nothing unusual happened.

"It looks like there are no traps or booby traps on it."

Bai Jue, who picked up the scroll, breathed a sigh of relief.

"Don't talk nonsense, open it quickly and take a look at the contents."

"I see."

Bai Jue, who was holding the scroll, opened it, and the rest of Bai Jue came over to have a look, but no one touched the scroll.

They saw a simple sentence——

——In October, Nine-Tails Jinchuriki gives birth, and Nine-Tails Seal will be weak. You can go to Room 323 on the third floor of Konoha Hospital to identify the authenticity.

"What does it mean?"

Bai Jue, holding the scroll, began to think.

When he was thinking about the meaning of this sentence, a Bai Jue suddenly attacked from behind, picked up the kunai stuck on the corpse, and stabbed it into his body.

The scroll fell from his hand, and Bai Zetsu, who was killed by the kunai, looked confused and confused until he died, showing a confused expression of 'Why did you kill me?'

The rest of Bai Jue were puzzled and looked at the Bai Jue who was killing him.

The Bai Jue who killed Bai Jue said without any guilt: "Idiot, he touched the scroll. Who knows if there is a tracking mark on the scroll. We only need to know the content on the scroll. We can't win the same thing again. It’s a trap, be careful and you won’t be in serious trouble.”

Hearing his explanation, the rest of Bai Jue showed admiration.

Next, they picked up the stone and smashed the scroll, destroying the scroll without touching it.

Afterwards, Bai Jue's body was destroyed on the spot.

After doing all this, they returned to the stronghold with this important news.

◎

In the cave behind the waterfall, the road inside is like a labyrinth, and the route is intricate. People who are not familiar with this place are likely to get lost here.

There are Bai Jue standing guard everywhere, no matter on the road or in the surrounding soil, there are Bai Jue watching, there is no possibility of being arbitrarily entered or exited by the enemy.

"In October, the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki gives birth..."

Nagato, who is proficient in the ability of six corpses, couldn't help being stunned when he heard the news.

However, Nagato soon came to his senses.

Tell him such important information, is it to let him fight Konoha?

Hei Jue said with a little deep meaning on the side: "This may be a bait for Nagato-sama to fall into the trap."

"It is indeed possible."

Nagato nodded.

Let him fight Konoha, and then reap the benefits of the fisherman at a critical moment, and clean him and Konoha, the possibility is too great.

After thinking for a moment, Nagato asked:

"When Jinzhuli gives birth, the seal will be weakened... Is this true or false?"

Heijue pondered a few words to respond: "Really. Female human strength does have such disadvantages. During childbirth, the suppressive power of tailed beasts will become weaker."

"That is to say, the other party is not targeting the target randomly."

Nagato said meaningfully.

"Nagato-sama, could you..."

"This is one of the few opportunities to weaken Konoha. I need to get Amegakure in my hands as soon as possible."

"This could be a trap."

"Even if it's a trap, it's worth trying. I can't wait too long."

Nagato responded to Black Zetsu like this.

Black Zetsu fell silent, knowing that Nagato had made up his mind.

What the other party showed was an absolute conspiracy, seizing Nagato's weakness - the Land of Rain, so that Nagato had to deal with Konoha even though he knew it might be a bait.

"However, if it is a trap, it is not necessarily true. As far as I know, Konoha is also very concerned about the three of them. Maybe they want to use my power to disrupt Konoha's future development layout."

Nagato guessed.

"Even so, it's too risky to pass by suddenly like this."

"No, from the perspective of dealing with Konoha, his goals and mine overlap in a certain direction. With such important information in hand, we can plan something. But it is not a trap, so we need to verify it ourselves."

Nagato sat there, a cold light flashing through his emotionless Rinne eyes.

"Since Nagato-sama has decided, then leave this matter to me."

Black Jue volunteered.

"Okay. Room 323 on the third floor of Konoha Hospital. Go there and make contact. If it is true, I don't mind becoming their blade against Konoha for the time being."

"yes."

Black Zetsu nodded in understanding, dived underground, and stalked towards Konoha.

After Black Zetsu left, Nagato was still focused on the information provided by Shiraishi.

The other party was obviously planning to make both him and Konoha lose.

Other than that, Nagato couldn't figure out why the other party was so kind enough to hand over such important information to him.

Even Bai Zetsu couldn't investigate such confidential information. It was obvious that the other party's layout in Konoha was more deeply rooted than Bai Zetsu.

After all, those three people have lived in Konoha for nearly twenty years. It is definitely easier than Bai Zetsu to investigate anything in Konoha.

But if you want to deal with the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki, you must not avoid the yellow flash wave Feng Shuimen.

Despite their reputation, both Iwagakure and Kumogakure were defeated by the yellow flash. In a head-on battle, Nagato did not have the confidence to absolutely defeat the yellow flash.

It is not impossible for the six paths of Pain controlled by him to be killed in an instant.

"It seems we need to prepare in advance."

Not only that, Konoha's Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, the root leader Shimura Danzo, and two advisors are all very powerful.

How to make good use of Nine Tails to weaken Konoha's power, Nagato felt tremendous pressure.

But he can't give in now. If he misses this opportunity, the Kingdom of Rain may never be able to turn around again.

◎

At the same time as Nagato received the scroll, Yagura also received the scroll passed by Shiraishi.

However, the scroll that Yagura obtained was encrypted with a spell, and it must be deactivated by a specific spell, otherwise the scroll will be automatically destroyed.

He and Shiraishi passed on information more than once, and Yagura used a specific method to unravel the scroll.

There is not much content on it, only a few words.

——In October, the Kyuubi Jinchuuriki will give birth, and there will be great chaos in Konoha. Please make arrangements.

Yagura's eyes flashed.

He didn't expect that even Baishi would know such secret information.

This also means that Konoha's Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki... no, or in other words, among Konoha's important medical personnel, there must be people deployed by the other party, and the level is not low.

Otherwise, the birth month of the Kyuubi Jinchuuriki would not be determined directly.

Konoha's hospital system...if not riddled with holes, is probably close to it.

With such a collaborator, Yagura feels a lot of pressure.

However, considering that all three of Shiraishi were Konoha ninjas, even if they left Konoha with some Uchiha and Hinata ninjas, they would definitely leave spies in Konoha to provide information at any time.

Compared to people from outside the village, those three people were easier to plant spies into the Konoha system.

"October?"

It is now late June, which means there is still up to three months of preparation time.

It's not too hasty, but with Kirigakure's current situation, it's quite urgent.

He originally wanted to set the date for launching the coup in November.

But since the chaos in Konoha can attract the attention of other villages in the ninja world, Yagura felt that if he didn't take advantage of it, he would be sorry for the important report Shiraishi provided.

"October will be October, it won't be a big deal anyway."

Yagura destroyed the scroll and walked outside the house.

"Someone is coming."

A Kirigakure ninja appeared in front of Yagura, knelt down on one knee, and waited for Yagura's order.

"Yakura-sama."

"Let it be announced, the selection meeting of the Fourth Mizukage will be held in October. I will notify you of the specific date."

Yagura ordered expressionlessly.

The Third Mizukage has handed over the selection meeting of the Fourth Mizukage to him, so in this matter, Yagura can decide the time of the Fourth Mizukage selection meeting. But from Yagura's point of view, this is just because the Third Mizukage couldn't bear the pressure from all parties and wanted to push him to the front desk to withstand the pressure from all parties.

But soon, it was time for him to become the Fourth Mizukage.
