I just want to be lazy, I was forced to become Hokage

After the affairs related to Tian Zhiguo are completed.

Nara Langui did not return to Konoha with Tsunade Hime.

After leaving Orochimaru's private laboratory.

Nara Langui rushed to the Shigu Forest as soon as possible to meet the Living Dragon Immortal.

Not only did he hand over the [Amber Purity Bottle] that sealed Hei Jue into the hands of Immortal Living Dragon (?).

At the same time, he also handed over the sealing scroll with the [Inner Four Symbols Sealing Technique] engraved with the dirt spots on it to Immortal Living Pheasant.

Although Nara Langui has personally supervised Orochimaru's performance of [Dirty Land Reincarnation·Explanation].

But he was not bored enough to open the seal scroll and check the specific situation of Uchiha Madara.

Even though Uchiha Madara, who was in the "Uri Four Symbols Sealing Technique", luckily escaped from the control of the "Dirty Earth Reincarnation Technique".

As long as he didn't escape [Li Sixiang Sealing Technique], that would be fine.

And what if Uchiha Madara didn't get rid of the [Dirty Earth Reincarnation Technique], but directly ascended to heaven with his soul.

That's better!

certainly.

It's not like Nara Langui can't bring these two special items back to Konoha for preservation.

But in comparison.

How can the ninjas of Konoha be as reliable as the immortals of the Holy Land?

Moreover, there are hundreds of clones of the Living Immortal.

There is a slug looking at the [Amber Purifying Bottle] and the sealing scroll.

This means that the Living Immortal is personally monitoring these two special prisoners.

The immortal is doing the work.

Nara Langui is relieved.

In his opinion.

There is a long-lived living dragon immortal who is responsible for supervising the two special prisoners, Black Zetsu and Uchiha Madara.

At least within your lifetime.

Nara Langui no longer needs to worry about these two conspirators!

The ninja world lacks the secret activities of Black Zetsu and Uchiha Madara, especially the former's machinations.

Are there any other threats that Konoha needs to worry about?

Totally unnecessary!

Based on the current comprehensive village power of Konoha Village.

Stop bullying other villages and unify the ninja world.

It all comes down to Nara Langui being a born lazy guy!

The lazy Hokage doesn't dream of ruling the ninja world.

After completely eliminating the worries of his confidants.

Nara, who had nothing to do but was light-hearted, returned to Konoha with Gui.

Then.

Nara Langui devoted almost all his energy to research related to the Pure Land.

It's not just this [Whispering Tomb·Pure Land] that was opened from the secret scroll of SS-level ninjas.

Including the [Jutsu of Reincarnation in Dirty Land], [The Technique of Sealing Ghosts], and [The Technique of Spiritual Transformation] that Nara acquired before taking Gui.

There is also the [Fu Zhi Reincarnation Technique] that Orochimaru almost modified to a perfect state under Black Zetsu's suggestion, and so on.

Nara Rangui integrated them all into one research project.

And beyond one's own abilities.

Nara Langui also specially sent Konoha ninjas to the Kingdom of Demons to collect relevant intelligence information about the Kingdom of Demons.

If he remembered correctly.

The Kingdom of Oni does have a very special heritage - the shrine maiden.

In addition to witches, there are also special characters such as "Yellow Springs" and "Sprites".

The Kingdom of Demons has a poor reputation in the shinobi world.

Nara Langui had not paid any attention to this country ruled by witches before.

But since the spell scroll of [Wound Tomb·Pure Land] specifically mentions——

That special space called "Pure Land", its connection point with the ninja world happens to be in the Kingdom of Demons.

So Nara Langui must of course conduct an on-the-spot investigation into the situation in the Kingdom of Ghosts.

And the only goal of this investigation.

Naturally, it is the "Grandpa Sangqiao" who has been dormant in the Pure Land for who knows how many years - the Immortal of Six Paths!

certainly.

Before Nara Langui's own strength increased to a certain level.

He will not rush to the Kingdom of Ghosts himself.

Immortals are risky and should be approached with caution.

Facing a Six Paths Immortal whose strength is unpredictable.

Even the soul body of the Six Paths Immortal.

Nara Langui didn't dare to have any careless thoughts.

This is like how he was always wary of going to Mt. Miaomu when his own strength level was not enough.

In the eyes of Nara Langui.

The Great Toad Immortal of Mount Miaomu is an extremely unpleasant guy.

But in comparison.

In the eyes of Nara Langui, the Six Paths Immortal is not even as good as the Great Toad Immortal!

That [Six Paths Immortal Technique: The Technique of Self-inflicted Curse] left such a deep impression on Nara Langui.

And it’s still a very negative impression!

Therefore, in addition to secretly studying the Pure Land, Nara Langui did not give up on improving his own strength.

With the support of [Shadow Escape] which involves five different changes in chakra properties at the same time.

Nara Langui's own [Knowledge] and [Ninjutsu] attributes have broken through to SS level.

The improvement of these two attributes also led to the improvement of his own overall strength.

That is SS level!

But facing the Immortal of Six Paths.

The strength of the SS class is still a bit weak.

Nara Langui made up his mind.

As long as his comprehensive evaluation does not reach the SSS level - that is, the Six Paths level.

Then he won't go see the Immortal of Six Paths!

Improve your strength and study the Pure Land.

These two tasks took up almost all of Nara Langui's energy.

As for other matters.

For example, the relevant information related to White Zetsu cells and Hashirama cells collected and sorted out from Orochimaru's laboratory.

Nara Langui originally planned to integrate them into the "Tailed Beast Peace Plan - White Deer Sage Chapter".

But in front of the Pure Land and the Six Paths Immortals.

The "Tailed Beast Peace Plan" was forcibly postponed by Nara Rengui.

Anyway, several Jinchūriki in Konoha Village need enough time to get along with the tailed beasts.

As for King Mu.

The big white deer has always been in the Nara forest.

Nara Langui is not afraid of it running away.

Time keeps passing.

The activity of the Fourth Hokage was lost, and the conspiracy of Black Zetsu and Madara was lost.

The ninja world is still the ninja world, and everything is running naturally.

The day after Tsunade Hime returned to the village.

Orochimaru secretly returned to Konoha and met Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Jiraiya, who had been drifting away, received Tsunade's notice in advance and rushed back to Konoha.

The Third Hokage reunited with his three disciples.

What exactly was discussed between them is unknown to outsiders.

But Sarutobi Hiruzen's indecisiveness was well known among the top brass in Konoha.

After returning to the village, Orochimaru was not executed by the order of the Third Hokage.

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not let this disciple go easily.

Because human experiments were conducted using fellow villagers.

Orochimaru returned to the village and visited the luxurious suite of Konoha Prison.

And beyond the penalty of imprisonment.

Sarutobi Hiruzen also prepared many "surprises" for Orochimaru.

Roughly speaking.

It was Sarutobi Hiruzen who wanted to use these "surprises" to reverse Orochimaru's increasingly twisted and cruel character.

According to Konoha's grapevine.

Orochimaru complained loudly to Jiraiya at a Sannin gathering a few months later——

'If I am guilty, let the Yondaime kill me instead of letting old man Sarutobi teach me what the will of fire is day and night! ’

The winter of Konoha's 54th year arrived quietly.

Heavy snow covered the entire Konoha Village.

Hokage's office.

Nara Langui, holding the invitation letter from the Hyuga clan in his hand, looked at the guests in the office with piercing eyes.

"Naruto, can you repeat what you just said?"

"oh……"

Uzumaki Naruto scratched his head and recalled the content of the dream he had last night.

"That's right, there is an old man who asked me to bring you a message.

"He said - the Fourth Hokage of Konoha..."

Uzumaki Naruto hadn't finished speaking yet.

A special and powerful chakra suddenly appeared in his body.

Nara Langui narrowed his eyes and subconsciously raised his vigilance.

An old voice spoke from Uzumaki Naruto's mouth.

"I am the one who establishes peace and order, and my name is Hagoromo."
