Escape From Konoha

"What a harsh sound..."

Even through the tight wall panels that were airtight, the sound of mechanical operation in the factory was still keenly felt by Chi Zi.

The Demon Country Military Factory located in the Country of Waves is working basically all the time, producing and assembling some industrial weapons that outsiders cannot know about.

The purpose of these weapons and where they will be used are also unknown to outsiders.

Not to mention outsiders, not many people even know about the ninjas from the Kingdom of Ghosts stationed in this factory.

But Chi Zi is not interested in knowing about these things. He just wants to go back to his room quickly and quiet his mind.

He was tortured by various sounds along the way. If this continued, his consciousness would inevitably lose control and he would go berserk.

If I had known this, I should have sealed myself and sunk to the depths of the sea.

I heard that it is a realm beyond the reach of human flesh and blood, a silent and dark world.

This should make you feel much calmer.

Thinking like this, Chi Zi thought that the next time he couldn't help but run away, he would try to 'throw his body' to the bottom of the sea.

"are you back?"

A cool voice sounded in my ears.

With long black hair comparable to silk, she has a good appearance, but her temperament gives people an inhuman indifference. The girl did not know when she appeared there, looking directly at Chizi not far away while walking, while using one hand Weird behavior of pressing his forehead hard.

"Um."

Facing the girl's question, Ako stopped, nodded, and answered in a very soft voice.

Unlike other clones, in his current state, he doesn't have much sense of awe for the girl.

Yi Ji didn't care about Chizi's attitude either. Unlike the "outside" state, the young child who likes to sleep, the "inside" state is very dangerous, and the personality is more thorough and indifferent. Although he has common sense, he is irrational.

Yiji took out a palm-sized transparent plastic bottle from her ninja bag. It was a medicine bottle with a large number of blood-red round pills inside.

Seeing the medicine bottle flying towards him, Chizi caught it.

"You're almost done with the medicine? Pay attention to the frequency of the medicine, and don't take too much at one time. Moreover, your body's resistance to the medicine is getting higher and higher."

Ako nodded and opened the medicine bottle without hesitation, poured out two blood-red pills from it, put them in his mouth, and swallowed them directly into his stomach.

As the medicine began to take effect, he let out a sigh of relief, and his brain began to calm down.

Yiji came over, stretched out her hand, and said, "Okay, bring the 'Dead Soul Gun' here. You'd better not hold such a dangerous thing while you're sleeping. I'll return it to you when you wake up. "

Chizi knew that the other party did not trust his own restraint, but fortunately, he did not believe in his own restraint either.

"Don't break the seal, you can't control it."

Akako handed the long-handled object wrapped with a cloth band behind her back to Kazuhime's hand and warned her.

"I'm not that bored."

He took the dead soul gun handed over by Ako.

Wrapped in a white cloth band with painted eyeballs, the actual appearance of the weapon inside cannot be seen.

But it was very cold when I took it, as if I was holding a piece of ice in my hand.

However, this coldness only lasted for a second before Ichiki used chakra to isolate it.

After handing over the Death Soul Gun, it was pointless for Chizi to stay here, and he walked towards his residence without saying a word.

Yiji turned her head to send Chizi away, and then looked down at the death gun in her hand. Through the evil eyeballs on the cloth belt, Yiji seemed to see the depths of the eyeballs, full of miserable green emptiness full of various pains and struggles. The shadows, including men and women, had different shapes. In the dark space of the eyeballs, they let out painful wails and curses.

This kind of wailing and cursing even penetrated Yiji's eardrums, constantly circulating in her ears, irritating her sensitive nerves.

"Be quiet!"

Ichiki frowned, terrifying chakra emanated from her body, and her eyes turned into the state of the three Magatama Sharingan.

After lasting for a few seconds, the sound slowly dissipated from Yiji's ears.

The soul shadow in the darkness looked at Yiji with eyes full of resentment and hatred, but no one dared to continue making noise.

"Kakashi-sensei, did you see that, I have succeeded!"

Three days later, Naruto stood dancing on the sea water, jumping and jumping there, but did not sink into the sea water. Obviously, he had mastered the knack of treading water.

Now he is showing off to Kakashi, hoping that the other party can praise him.

"Ah, with your ability, you are indeed very impressive at learning to tread water in less than a week."

Kakashi also nodded in approval.

After all, it took Naruto a week to learn the tree climbing exercise.

The difficulty of treading water is even more difficult than climbing trees, coupled with the constant interference of Nine-Tails Chakra, he thought at first that Naruto would need more than a week to learn to tread water... Now it seems that Naruto is talented in ninjas , even beyond his expectations.

This kid doesn't seem to realize how special he is. Looking at the beaming Naruto, Kakashi thought to himself.

Naruto, who always has a three-minute passion for everything he does, becomes extremely persistent when it comes to training.

This perseverance, coupled with his own talent, makes his strength grow faster the further he goes.

When he reached the point where he could control the Nine-Tails Chakra in his body, his strength increased by leaps and bounds.

The terror of the jinchūriki was obvious to all.

Konoha does not have a perfect jinchuriki training method. Even if they communicate with Kirigakure and Kumogakure many times, these two villages have no intention of trading a perfect jinchuriki training method with Konoha.

The Kyuubi is already the strongest tailed beast. If the Jinchuriki can perfectly control the power of the Kyuubi, it will not be a good thing for the rest of the village.

Although the process of cultivating a perfect jinchuriki is very difficult, it is not a short-term effort, and it is also accompanied by life dangers, but if Konoha possesses a perfect jinchuriki, it is estimated that even Sunagakure, a staunch ally, will start to be wary of Konoha.

But even so, Konoha, which does not have a perfect jinchuriki training method, has a high level of research on tailed beasts.

The root even relied on the tailed beast's chakra to create a tailed beast forbidden drug that allowed ninjas to use part of the tailed beast's power.

Coupled with the experience of the first two generations of Kyuubi Jinchuuriki, as long as Naruto meets the minimum requirements, Kakashi believes that the senior officials headed by the Sandaime will definitely use some methods to allow Naruto to begin to master the power of the Kyuubi. Even if you only master some parts, it can greatly increase the overall power of Konoha.

The power of the tailed beast is so unreasonable.

When the Kyuubi went berserk, it took Konoha the lives of hundreds of elite ninjas and the sacrifice of the Fourth Hokage to barely suppress the Kyuubi.

If Kyuubi hadn't caused such a huge sacrifice for Konoha and later fought against Kumogakure, Konoha would not have been so passive. Even the Hyuga clan was bullied by Kumogakure and went home, praying for compromise to calm Kumogakure.

In Kakashi's opinion, Naruto may become as powerful a ninja as his father, the Fourth Hokage, in the future.

Thinking of that sunny man, Kakashi sighed in his heart.

I've been really getting more and more upset lately.

"Kakashi-sensei!"

"Um?"

Kakashi came back to his senses and saw Naruto standing in front of him with a dissatisfied look on his face.

"Were you in a daze just now?"

Naruto said dissatisfied.

"Ah, sorry, I remembered something, what's wrong?"

Kakashi asked as he put together "Make Out in Heaven".

"Well, I have learned how to tread water. Now you should be able to teach me how to breathe fire and release thunder and lightning."

Naruto rubbed his hands and chuckled.

"...You still remember these."

"Of course, I also want to have such a cool move."

As he spoke, he imitated Sasuke's example of quickly forming seals, and opened his mouth:

"Art fire escape ho fireball!"

call--

He let out a breath.

Not to mention flames, not even a trace of fire was spit out.

However, Naruto didn't pay attention, but looked at Kakashi expectantly.

"That being said, I don't know what your chakra attributes are."

"Chakra attributes?"

Naruto looked confused.

"Yes, the reason why Sasuke can use fire escape and thunder escape is because his chakra contains two attributes: fire and thunder. So after mastering the changes in the nature of chakra, he can release fire escape and thunder escape. But Naru Man, I don’t know what your chakra attributes are.”

In other words, if it were not for the attributes of fire and thunder, the idea of ​​practicing fire escape and thunder escape could be simply discarded from the mind.

"Kakashi-sensei doesn't know either?"

Naruto asked urgently.

"I'm not you, how do I know? Forget it, judging from your appearance, I know that you don't know much about the changes in chakra properties. Let's test the properties of your chakra first."

Kakashi said as he took out a piece of white paper from his ninja bag.

Naruto has learned to tread water, and his chakra control has barely reached a passing level, so it is not a bad thing to start learning the techniques of changing chakra properties at this time.

At the genin and chunin stages, escape techniques can greatly enrich one's own moves, making tactics more diverse.

The shadow clone's bait tactic is okay against ordinary ninjas, but it may not be effective against powerful ninjas.

But if a shadow clone is used, and then a transformation technique is performed on the basis of the shadow clone, and a more powerful harem technique is performed, the effect will be different.

After all, although the ability of the Harem Technique is a little weird, as long as it can ensure victory and effectively attack the enemy's mental will, it is a powerful killing move.

Ninja battles only focus on the results, not the process.

From this point of view, Kakashi believed that Naruto had developed a very amazing ninjutsu.

For some specific groups of people, it may be more effective than S-level secret ninjutsu.

"what is this?"

Naruto looked at the white piece of paper that Kakashi took out and tilted his head, expressing confusion.

"This is chakra test paper. As long as you inject chakra into it, you can know what your chakra attribute is. If the chakra attribute is fire attribute, the paper will burn, the earth attribute paper will shatter, and the thunder attribute paper will If it becomes wrinkled, the water-based paper will get wet, and if it is wind-based, there will be cuts in the film."

"It's so complicated."

Naruto looked like he didn't quite understand.

"Just try to come."

Kakashi placed the chakra test paper in front of Naruto.

Naruto took it and infused his chakra into the chakra test paper as Kakashi said.

laugh!

A gap cut by a sharp blade immediately appeared on the white paper.

"This is……"

Naruto looked at the piece of paper with a cut in shock.

"It seems that you can't use fire escape and thunder escape. Your current chakra attribute is wind."

"Wind?"

He had never seen anyone use Wind Release, and Naruto didn't know if Wind Release was powerful.

"Yes, among the Five Release Ninjutsu, Water Release restrains Fire Release, Fire Release restrains Wind Release, Wind Release restrains Thunder Release, Thunder Release restrains Earth Release, and Earth Release restrains Water Release. This is the rule of the five elements restraining each other."

However, the rules of mutual restraint of the five elements are not constant.

Depending on the user, the power of the ninjutsu is weakened and enhanced.

For example, the fire escape of the Uchiha clan, it is difficult for ordinary ninjas to resist using water escape.

"So, my ability will be restrained by Sasuke, right?"

"According to the rules, your Wind Release will restrain Sasuke's Thunder Release, but Sasuke's Fire Release will restrain your Wind Release."

Seeing Naruto's disappointed look, Kakashi added: "Actually, there is another rule, that is, the five elements not only restrain each other, but also create each other. Although Fire Release restrains Wind Release, it can also use the power of wind to make Fire Release stronger. . If you use Wind Release and Sasuke uses Fire Release, the resulting Fire Release will reach a higher level, producing an excellent effect of one plus one being greater than two."

Sure enough, when Naruto heard these words, the depression on his face disappeared, revealing a look of surprise.

But the surprise didn't last long before he snorted and Naruto turned his head and said in an awkward tone: "Who wants to cooperate with that stinky guy?"

"...The truth is given to you. What you want to do is up to you. Since your attribute is wind, I will give you a relatively simple introductory wind escape."

With that said, Kakashi began to form seals.

The speed of forming the seals was not fast, and the movements were precise. Otherwise, with Naruto's dynamic vision, he would not be able to see the order of the seals clearly if he used all his strength to form the seals.

"Wind Escape·Big Breakthrough!"

Kakashi took a deep breath, and then spit out a powerful whirlwind from his mouth. Wherever it passed, all the sand on the coast was blown up, and the dust flew all over the sky, and then dispersed.

Naruto was stunned.

"Okay, so awesome!"

Then he came to his senses, looked at Kakashi suspiciously, and asked, "By the way, does Kakashi also have the same chakra attributes as me?"

Kakashi nodded and said calmly: "Yes, my chakra attributes also include wind. But my initial attributes were only thunder and earth. The remaining attributes were cultivated step by step after I became a chuunin and jounin. Come out. So, not only Thunder Escape, Earth Escape and Wind Escape, I can also use Water Escape and Fire Escape. However, my best escape techniques are still Thunder Escape and Earth Escape."

After all, people's energy is limited. Even though they have all the chakra attributes and have learned all the escape techniques, except for the thunder escape and earth escape, the other escape techniques are only dabbled in.

But even so, he still had no problem teaching a rookie like Naruto.

"..."

For some reason, Naruto always felt that Kakashi was deliberately trying to be cool with him.

In a matter-of-fact tone, he said lightly that he could use all escape techniques... This cool look was even more annoying than Sasuke.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing, let's start training, Kakashi-sensei."

Naruto said.

"Don't you need to rest? You look quite tired these days."

"How can I have this time? I want to become stronger quickly and catch up with that guy Sasuke!"

Naruto said firmly.

"Okay, but then I have a request."

"What?"

"When training wind attribute chakra, use shadow clones and let your shadow clones learn together. But the number of shadow clones should be controlled within five, not too many."

"Why?"

"It's a bit troublesome to explain in detail. I'll explain it to you after you experience it with your own body. You only need to follow my method and you can learn the basic wind escape in less than half a month. It’s a technique.”

"All right."

Seeing Kakashi pretending to be mysterious, Naruto had no choice but to follow Kakashi's instructions and use the Shadow Clone Technique to create four shadow clones.

…

Let Naruto communicate alone in the woods not far away, with the ANBU jounin watching, Kakashi knew that there would be no problems.

He came alone to another clearing in the woods, where a person was already waiting for him.

After Kakashi's footsteps approached, the other party raised his head and smiled: "Still as sharp as ever, Kakashi. Those ANBU didn't notice me, but you were the first to notice my existence."

The person waiting for Kakashi's arrival here is none other than Jiraiya, one of the Sannin who often wanders outside Konoha Village.

"Jiraiya-sama is ridiculous. It's just that Naruto's matter is of great importance. I don't think I can protect him by myself. As I expected, Hokage-sama has made other arrangements."

Kakashi looked at Jiraiya and said.

Compared with him, the ANBU minister who joined the Hokage faction halfway, it was obvious that Jiraiya, who had been with him since he was a child and had always been loyal to Konoha, was more worthy of the Hokage's trust.

Even at the root, he had never doubted Jiraiya's loyalty to Konoha.

If it were another Konoha ninja who dared to be away from home all year round and communicate with the village less than a few times a year, even if the Hokage didn't do anything, the roots would take corresponding actions to obliterate him.

For Konoha ninjas who do not obey the village's instructions, the root's tolerance is zero.

"This is something that can't be helped. After all, he is the child of Minato and Kushina, and he is also a Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. No matter how much protection is invested, it is a matter of course."

Especially since the opponent is extremely weak at the moment, not to mention facing a jounin, even a slightly stronger chuunin can defeat him.

Kakashi nodded without denying it.

"A few days ago, Chiko from the Ghost Kingdom met Naruto. Although the other party said that meeting Naruto was just a coincidence, you can't put your hope on the Ghost Kingdom. Konoha and the Ghost Kingdom have a bad relationship. Maybe they will have a good relationship with Naruto. What people do.”

Jiraiya expressed his guess.

"Is that so?"

Kakashi felt that Jiraiya was thinking too much.

The country of ghosts does not pay as much attention to the need for tailed beasts as the traditional five major countries.

In particular, Akatsuki also urgently needs tailed beasts. If Oni Nation targets Konoha's Nine Tails, it means diverting Akatsuki's attention to Oni Nation.

In that case, not only would it not be able to cause fierce conflicts between Akatsuki and the traditional five major powers, but it would also lead to the war between Akatsuki and the kingdom of ghosts ahead of time, and the traditional five major powers would stay out of the matter and watch from the sidelines.

This situation obviously caused a serious conflict with the plan of the Kingdom of Ghosts.

But these words cannot be explained to Jiraiya.

These suspicions of the other party are also reasonable.

"I will take care of Naruto's safety, and Master Jiraiya is here. Even if there is any conspiracy in the Kingdom of Demons, it will probably not succeed."

Kakashi said.

Jiraiya nodded slightly in agreement. It was indeed a bit difficult for him to deal with the ninjas from the Kingdom of Waves by himself.

Just being a child alone must make him highly vigilant.

There is also Chiba Kazuhime whose strength is unknown. The other party is the daughter of Chiba Shiraishi and Uchiha Ruri. Her strength should not be underestimated.

Even if he could defeat the opponent with his own strength, it would probably be very difficult.

"In other words, Lord Jiraiya was sent here to guard against the power of the Demon Country?"

Kakashi asked.

"In this regard, there is another important thing I want to explain to you."

Jiraiya's expression became serious.

"Another important thing?"

"You should know that I have been tracking down Orochimaru these years."

Jiraiya said.

"Yes."

Because the department that assisted Jiraiya in investigating Orochimaru's incident was the ANBU.

As the ANBU minister, Kakashi knew a lot about this matter.

"So how much does the Anbu know about that organization?"

Orochimaru joined a mysterious organization, and the Anbu also learned something about it.

Although it wasn't much, it was enough to arouse the ANBU's vigilance.

"I only know that the core members of that organization, wearing a coat with a black background and a red cloud, are wandering around the ninja world. I don't know what the purpose is. Why does Master Jiraiya know anything?"

The three ninjas have different abilities, and they all have their own strong achievements in their respective fields.

Tsunade's medical ninjutsu.

Orochimaru's research on forbidden techniques.

As well as Jiraiya's senjutsu... and his extremely powerful intelligence gathering ability, which can be called Konoha's eyes to the outside world.

In the past, when the ANBU department was paralyzed, Jiraiya was responsible for collecting intelligence from the outside world alone.

Although the actions of the Akatsuki organization are very secretive, if it were Jiraiya, he might have noticed something that ordinary people could not know.

"Although I'm not 100% sure, based on what I've investigated, they seem to be more interested in some special things in the ninja world."

"For example?"

"Tailed beast."

Jiraiya said solemnly.

"Does Hokage-sama know about this?"

Kakashi raised his head and looked at Jiraiya.

"I have already reported to him, so this time I came here not only to visit Naruto, but also to tell you. There are a lot of S-level rebels in that organization, you have to be careful."

Jiraiya reminded Kakashi seriously.

He knew that Kakashi was very powerful, but the members of that mysterious organization were equally dangerous. When the two meet, it is difficult to predict who will win and who will lose.

"I see."

Kakashi sighed, then glanced into the depths of the woods and said in a meaningful tone:

"The wind direction has become a bit strange recently..."
