Escape From Konoha

A certain strait in the sea area of ​​​​the Kingdom of Thunder.

A giant island covered with inverted rock pillars was floating quietly above the sea, and was swimming towards the western sea of ​​the Kingdom of Thunder at an unhurried speed.

But if you look closely, you will see that this is not an island at all, but an extremely large turtle.

Just because the turtle shell is covered with rock, soil, rocks and trees, it looks like an uninhabited island floating on the sea.

"It's really amazing. It's obviously just a sea turtle, but it actually has a complete ecological cycle system on its back."

Following the Fourth Raikage to this turtle island, Tsunade discovered that the space on this turtle island was much larger than imagined.

In terms of size, it has far surpassed the tailed beast. After all, the huge space of Turtle Island has formed a perfect ecosystem. If you want to achieve this level, it is impossible to form such a space if the space is not large.

"Of course, this turtle is a turtle that our Yunyin has been carefully nurturing since the beginning of the village. Over the years, we have given it a lot of good food to make it so strong."

The Fourth Raikage responded to this question in a matter-of-fact manner.

"However, if this size is larger, there is no problem in building a city on it... With such a large size, it should be easy to discover."

Tsunade glanced around.

At this time, she was following the Fourth Raikage walking in the forest of Turtle Island. Looking at the huge building in front of her, she could vaguely see the head of the Eight-tailed Gypsy carved at the front entrance of the stone building.

In addition, you can also see self-circulating waterfalls and rivers, as well as wild beasts hiding in the forest, which made Tsunade once again admire how complete the ecosystem here is.

It is not impossible to build a city on it.

"This issue was considered during the time of the first generation Raikage. Don't worry, Turtle Island has a very complete concealment barrier. Even a ninja who is proficient in sensory ninjutsu will find it difficult as long as Turtle Island does not make large movements. It can be sensed from the outside world. In recent years, a state-of-the-art radar system has been built on the island. As long as there is an intrusion of abnormal chakra, an alarm will be issued immediately."

The Fourth Raikage glanced at Tsunade and indicated that Turtle Island was absolutely safe. Even if the enemy wanted to investigate, it would take a lot of time.

"In addition, Hibi and Yukito, who were captured by Akatsuki, all received perfect jinchūriki training here. Because there is such a training place on the island, all the jinchuriki of our Kumogakure generations will come here before joining the war. Perform hard training. But after so many years, only Bi has completed the training of a perfect jinchuriki. Therefore, I don't think that the nine-tailed jinchuriki called Naruto can reach Bi's level or Yuki's level. , it’s already pretty good.”

The Fourth Raikage asserted this.

Kumogakure's jinchuriki changed for several generations, but only one perfect jinchuriki was born. One can imagine how difficult it is to complete the training of a perfect jinchuriki.

"You can only trust Naruto in this kind of thing."

Tsunade didn't finish her words. If the perfect Jinchuuriki were so cheap, there wouldn't be only two or three of them now.

Although her grandfather and Uchiha Madara could perfectly control the power of tailed beasts, those two relied on the power of wood escape and sharingan to forcibly control the tailed beasts, making them fight for themselves rather than with them. The tailed beasts have the same mind. This state, strictly speaking, is not a truly perfect Jinchuuriki.

"Do you believe it? Huh, I heard that Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas who died, once firmly believed in the possibility of the so-called son of prophecy to save the world, and even Myobokuyama secretly campaigned for it. As a result, Myobokuyama made such a prophecy, But he was destroyed by Chiba Shiraishi. If I remember correctly, the so-called son of prophecy is Naruto. In the past, Jiraiya also said that the yellow flash is also the son of prophecy. "

The Fourth Raikage sneered at this statement. If Myoboku Mountain really had such a powerful power, it would not be destroyed by the Kingdom of Demons. Only a few big fish and small fish would be left alive.

"Jiraiya did say these words. If this were not the case, he would not have been plotted by the Kingdom of Demons and died in Amegakure."

Tsunade sighed.

"I thought that as one of the three ninjas, you also believed in this."

The Fourth Raikage was quite surprised.

"How is it possible? I believe in the possibility of Naruto. However, this possibility is brought about by the Nine Tails in his body and the power of the Uzumaki clan. It has nothing to do with the child of prophecy. Moreover, even if he is a Sannin, I Jiraiya and Orochimaru believe in completely different things."

Tsunade shook her head slightly and said no more.

"Is it the Uzumaki clan? It is said that the blood of this clan is naturally suitable to be a jinchuriki. There is indeed a possibility that he will become a perfect jinchuriki."

The Fourth Raikage also nodded.

This is the cruelest place in the world of ninjas.

Talent is something that has actually been determined from the beginning.

Ninjas with blood inheritance limits are much stronger than ordinary people, whether it is the lower limit or the upper limit.

Naruto, who has the blood of the Uzumaki clan, and possesses a powerful cheating device like the Nine-Tails in his body, is indeed worth cultivating for any Kage.

This kind of thing would be the same in Kumogakure.

"Okay, we're here."

The Fourth Raikage came to the entrance of the stone building and stopped.

"Hey, Brother, good afternoon."

Kirabi said hello and stepped forward, followed by two ANBU jounin from Kumogakure Village, who were members of his bodyguard to monitor and protect him.

Judging from the calm and majestic aura of the two ANBU, they are by no means mediocre among the Kumogakure ANBU. And to be able to serve as a personal bodyguard for the Jinchuuriki, one must have special abilities. Even if one is not a blood successor ninja, he must have practiced some kind of secret technique or forbidden technique.

The Fourth Raikage nodded as a greeting.

"Bi, this is the Fifth Hokage of Konoha."

The Fourth Raikage introduced Tsunade's identity to Kirabi.

"Really? It turns out to be Konoha's... fire... shadow... so white, no, so big!"

Kirabi paused in a very subtle tone, and his eyes subconsciously wandered to Tsunade's chest, as if he was under a holding spell, his eyes unblinking.

"Idiot! What's there to see in an old woman's breasts? Please be more serious!"

When the Four Thunder Shadows saw Kirabi's extremely embarrassing and demented look, they were so angry that they punched Kirabi hard on the head.

boom!

Kirabi was knocked directly to the ground, with a big swelling on his head, and he suddenly became much more awake.

old woman! Hearing the Fourth Raikage's comment, Tsunade raised her eyebrows and then thought of something without having an attack.

"Is this your brother the Eight-Tails? He doesn't look like a perfect Jinchuuriki at all."

Tsunade carefully looked at Kirabi's inconspicuous posture, which was very different from the majesty of the Fourth Raikage. She couldn't imagine that this kind of person could be Kumogakure's secret weapon.

But then I thought of Naruto, and suddenly felt that the Jinchuuriki's personality was a bit abnormal, which was not unacceptable.

Perhaps just because he is a Jinchuuriki, he has all kinds of strange personalities.

"Although this guy is usually careless, if he is serious, he will be a very reliable help. Moreover, next, he will also be Naruto's temporary teacher."

The Fourth Raikage explained this.

"Well, since you are so sure Raikage, let him take care of the rest of Naruto's affairs."

Tsunade nodded.

Seeing Tsunade's unconvincing attitude, the Fourth Raikage said nothing. Instead of talking big words, the right thing to do was to use practical actions to prove Kumogakure's ability.

"Naruto? Who is that?"

Kirabi, who seemed to have doubts about this, tilted his head slightly.

"Konoha's Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki will come here to train for the Perfect Jinchuuriki. I should have informed you the day before."

The Fourth Raikage said.

"This is the matter."

Kirabi thought about it, and the gaze under his sunglasses became meaningful, completely different from his previous attitude.

◎

In the Kingdom of Ghosts, there is a completely enclosed white room on the bottom floor of the Military Research Institute. Judging from its size, it is a huge space that can accommodate hundreds of people without appearing crowded.

In this huge white space, the walls and floors naturally emit light, making the lighting effect here as bright as daytime. In such an empty room, except for a display-like device placed in the center, there are There aren't any superfluous furnishings.

This room is also one of the secret laboratories owned by Shiraishi.

As Shiraishi and Ayane entered the room, the long-lost silence was broken by their footsteps.

The two walked all the way to the display stand in the center and found that connected to the display stand was a computer close to the size of an adult. The display screen was lit, showing the analysis results of something on the display stand.

I saw that the display table was covered with a layer of square transparent glass, which just covered the objects on the display table.

It was a spherical purple meteorite the size of a human head. There were a large number of holes on the meteorite, which was reminiscent of the hollow state inside the purple meteorite.

Even through the special blocking glass, the meteorite enclosed in it can make people outside feel that it is emitting a powerful chakra with radiation effect all the time.

The energy characteristics of this chakra are completely different from the chakra trained by ninjas.

This special chakra has extremely strong destructive and corrosive properties. If a large amount is absorbed, the body will easily be eroded by this special chakra, and the energy and blood will gradually decline and become disabled.

"This is the 'star' of the Hoshi Ninja Village."

Ayane looked at the hollow meteorite emitting purple energy in the glass cabinet, and immediately remembered the origin of this meteorite.

Shiraishi nodded and said: "This is indeed the 'star' of the Star Ninja Village. It is an extraterrestrial meteorite obtained by the ancestors of the Star Ninja Village a long time ago. Using this meteorite, he completed the unique creation of the Star Ninja Village. Secret Technique—Peacock’s Magical Technique.”

"Is the power of 'Star' so powerful? It feels completely different from what I have seen before."

Ayane continued to stare at the meteorite, frowning.

She personally obtained the Star Ninja Village ‘Star’ from the Star Ninja Village back then, and then sent people back to the Kingdom of Demons for research.

The intensity of the chakra sensed by the 'star' I saw at that time was far from this intensity and was about to break through the sealing device.

"Of course the original star is not so powerful, but unfortunately you have to take a closer look to see what is inside the 'star'."

Shiraishi pointed at the meteorite.

Ayane paused for a moment, and chakra immediately gathered in her eyes. She opened her Byakugan, and the world in front of her eyes immediately turned into black and white. With her powerful eye power, she penetrated the shell of the 'star' and looked directly into the space inside the 'star'. .

It was a squirming piece of flesh.

And she discovered that the radioactive chakra was emitted from this piece of meat, not from the meteorite itself.

"This is--"

Ayane was suddenly surprised.

"I cultivated a small piece of Ten-Tails flesh and blood, and then placed it in the 'star' for gestation, so that it could acquire the characteristics of the 'star', giving the chakra stronger destructive and corrosive capabilities. So much time has passed now , the power of 'Star' has been almost absorbed by this piece of Ten-Tails flesh and blood."

Bai Shi smiled slightly, clasped his hands lightly on his chest, and looked at the flesh and blood in the 'star' at leisure, with a look of anticipation flashing in his eyes.

"Are you planning to breed an artificial tailed beast?"

Ayane was secretly speechless.

The chakra contained in this piece of flesh was already very close to her level.

If he continues to cultivate it, his chakra might break through to the tailed beast level.

"It can't be so easy. It has taken me countless efforts to raise it to this level. It has basically reached the upper limit and it is impossible to grow any further. However, compared to chakra, the strength and characteristics of the Ten Tails after absorbing the 'star' can only This is the real power of this piece of flesh. In other words, if you eat this piece of flesh and then tame the power within it, you can obtain the chakra characteristics of the Ten-Tails and the 'Star' at the same time. The increase in chakra is just an incidental basis. "

Shiraishi explained.

After all, at their level, chakra deficiency rarely occurs in battles.

Compared with chakra, the energy characteristics contained in chakra are the key.

"That means I have to eat this piece of Ten-Tails flesh and blood next, right?"

Ayane touched her chin, keeping her Byakugan open, her eyes always locked on the flesh and blood of the Ten Tails in the meteorite, which was emitting a strong rhythm of life.

"If you don't like it, I can give you the flesh and blood of the Ten Tails without the power of the 'star'."

Shiraishi did not force Ayane and chose to follow Ayane's own choice.

"No, this is it. I think the pure Ten-Tails flesh and blood is too easy to tame, and the one with added ingredients is better. Besides, I don't want to lose to that Sharingan woman."

Ayane made the final decision and gave her choice with almost no thought.

"It's as I thought, then, I'm going to open it."

Shiraishi seemed to have expected this situation, so he stepped forward without hesitation, walked to the computer, and began to tap the keys on the keyboard skillfully and quickly.

As the mechanism started, the glass on the decorative table immediately emitted a hazy and mysterious light, opening from the center like a blooming bud.

Immediately afterwards, there was a strong wind, carrying purple chakra, rapidly impacting all around.

Even the ground was impacted by this chakra, and cracks visible to the naked eye appeared, causing substantial destructive power.

However, Shiraishi and Ayane blocked the sudden impact of chakra intact and stood firmly in place. Only their hair was blown up, but other than that they were not affected at all.

As her long hair fell down, Ayane took a step forward and got closer to the 'star' on the display stand.

The closer he got, the clearer the feeling of being stared at by some kind of terrifying creature.

It seems that the flesh and blood of the 'star' has a strong sense of life and is not completely dead.

"After absorbing the power of the meteorite, a small piece of flesh and blood has awakened to this level. It feels like it will be very difficult to eat it."

A smile appeared on Ayane's lips, and she didn't look stressed at all.

"After all, there are many unsolved mysteries in the starry sky. No matter what, this piece of flesh and blood is very different from the original Ten-Tails."

Shiraishi smiled.

"Is it like space matter like polar particles?"

Ayane tilted her head and squinted at Shiraishi beside her.

"Yes, both 'stars' and polar particles prove that space has mysterious power and is closely related to chakra. I have used experiments and historical perspectives to verify the source of chakra, and the results are all Guide towards the boundless starry sky. Maybe on some star that we cannot see, there is a chakra civilization that is more brilliant than ours."

Shiraishi answered after pondering.

"Really? However, even with such a splendid civilization, the five major countries and the Akatsuki must be eliminated first, so that there will be no worries."

After saying that, Ayane stretched out her hand and explored the meteorite named 'Star'.

There were traces of artificial cutting on the outside of the meteorite. Ayane easily opened the hemispherical shell of the meteorite, revealing the flesh and blood of the Ten Tails preserved in the meteorite.

It was a slightly hard piece of meat. Since it had no skin, it was slightly red in color, giving people a strange feeling that there was life inside.

Ayane grabbed the mass of flesh and blood with her right hand, but could only barely hold it, so she used her other hand to support it and presented it in front of her at close range.

After placing it on her hands to support it, Ayane felt as if her palms had lost consciousness. The radioactive chakra emitted from the flesh and blood was corroding the control of her hands.

It is already in this state just from the outside contact. If it is swallowed into the stomach, you can imagine how it will be corroded.

However, Ayane didn't seem to feel the threat. She didn't hesitate to bring the reddish flesh to her mouth, then opened her mouth and decisively bit off a piece from it with her tough teeth. , swallowed into the stomach, even the traces of blood and flesh rolling in the throat are clearly visible.

Without pausing, before the flesh and blood in her stomach had been fully digested, Ayane opened her mouth again and quickly took a bite. Finally, as if swallowing a date, she stuffed less than half of the remaining Ten Tails flesh and blood into her mouth in one go. , swallow them all.

As all the flesh and blood of the Ten Tails were swallowed up, the meridians around Ayane's Byakugan seemed to be breaking through the surface of the skin, becoming more ferocious bulges, and even the originally innocent Byakugan began to show a trace of... The palpitating scarlet light.

The muscles on his fair and flawless face also showed signs of twisting, as if they were enduring some unknown pain and engaging in a fierce battle with the Ten-Tails will within their bodies.

In order to concentrate more easily, Ayane closed her eyes tightly and kept her hands in a seal, so that she could gather chakra more smoothly to suppress the power of the Ten-Tails rushing randomly in her body.

In this crucial battle, Ayane did not dare to be careless at all, and planned to go all out from the beginning.

Looking at Ayane, whose whole body was filled with evil energy, Shiraishi knew that Ayane had officially collided with the will of the Ten-Tails.

"So, which side will win?"

Shiraishi began to guess while observing Ayane's current state.

If he fails, he will forcefully remove the connection between Ayane and the Ten-Tails flesh and blood, and strip it out of Ayane's body.

If he succeeds and obtains the Byakugan of the Ten-Tails Chakra, his eye power will surely be further improved, and he may even awaken special abilities that have never appeared before.

Shiraishi is looking forward to this.

"Turtle Island?"

Kisame was already on an uninhabited island in the waters of Thunder Country.

The area of ​​the island is not large. There are only scattered protruding rocks on it. Other than that, there are no other decorations. It is extremely desolate.

Standing in front of Kisame at this time were several White Zetsu who were good at working in secret.

Judging from the wet marks on their bodies, it was obvious that they had been conducting reconnaissance work in the sea not long ago and had just landed ashore.

"Yes, I heard that it was a huge turtle that was supported by Kumogakure Village during the time of the First Raikage, and that turtle carried an island on the sea all year round, so it was called Turtle Island. However, even in Kumogakure Village Among them, there are not many people who have seen the existence of Turtle Island. Generally speaking, they will hear this kind of place as a legend."

Said Bai Jue, whose head was completely soaked by the sea water.

"But since we have explored it to this point, that means it really exists, right?"

Kisame paused and looked at Bai Zetsu.

"Yes, according to the trajectory of the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki after leaving Konoha, he headed towards the port of the Kingdom of Thunder, and then disappeared in the waters of the Kingdom of Thunder... Therefore, it can be seen that the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki is mostly hidden in Kumogakure. On Turtle Island. Moreover, on that Turtle Island, I heard that there is a mysterious place that helps the jinchuriki control the tailed beasts in his body."

"It's really amazing that you can even detect this kind of thing."

Kisame sighed at Bai Zetsu's almost pervasive ability.

"It's not to that level yet." That's what he said, but Bai Jue spoke with a touch of pride, "However, even if we know that the Nine-Tails and the Eight-Tails may be hiding on Turtle Island, we want to find Turtle Island. The location is not a simple matter. The sea area under the jurisdiction of the Kingdom of Thunder is too large. It is a very difficult task to locate the location of Turtle Island from the huge sea area with only a few hundred people. What's more, since it is a turtle The island on the island means that the island will not be fixed in one position, but can be moved.”

This is undoubtedly making Bai Jue's investigation more difficult.

After all, if it is a fixed sea area, even if there is a hidden barrier, you can always find it as long as you check it one by one.

But if it moves all the time and moves outside the waters of the Kingdom of Thunder, there is no possibility of locking the location of Turtle Island in a short period of time.

"Is that so? Then, let my sharks join the investigation. It may not be possible on land, but the sea is also my domain. The sharks I keep in captivity have relatively strong sensing capabilities for people with special chakra. .As long as the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails don't deliberately hide their chakra, it should have an effect."

Kisame chuckled, walked to the edge of the island, bit his finger, and began to form seals.

"Psychic art!"

As large pieces of white smoke dispersed on the sea, sharks crowded around the island, then turned over and dived into the sea, splashing waves.

"As expected of Kisame, he is always so reliable."

Bai Jue looked at this scene and couldn't help but praise it from the bottom of his heart.

"Then, we went over to help. We need to lock the jinchuriki's position before the war begins. This is something Nagato-sama personally ordered, so we can't screw it up."

Without any hesitation, the few Bai quickly jumped into the sea and disappeared from Kisame's sight.

"It's really troublesome... After this time, my work will be over."

Kisame didn't know whether he was feeling sentimental or sighing. Then he looked at the gently undulating calm sea and remained silent for a long time.
