Konoha: Otsutsuki from the Earth

Seeing Kakuzu's body slowly falling down, Ino, who was standing behind Asuma, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Kakuzu's sudden attack just now made her a little scared. If Qi Fei's illusion hadn't happened to be successful, she might have been taken hostage by Kakuzu.

Thinking of this, Ino said to Qi Fei: "Thank you! Qi Fei."

After putting away the dagger, Qi Fei said with a smile after the battle: "It's okay, I guess I was careless."

Wearing sunglasses, Yamashiro Aoba said: "Although it was only for a short moment, members of the Akatsuki organization really cannot be careless."

Kakuzu's black tentacles that restrained them were quickly broken free by him, but by then Ino had been kidnapped by Kakuzu.

"The strength and ability of each member of the Akatsuki organization is troublesome." Shikamaru scratched his head and said, "Why can't this guy be killed? You have obviously stabbed him once."

Qi Fei looked at Kakuzu's body and replied: "He has five hearts in his body, which will be hidden in the limbs and mask.

"I saw through it with my white eyes. It would be really difficult for an ordinary person to spot it."

"So that's the case, no wonder." Shikamaru thought, "First there was a heart in the arm that was cut off by you, right? Then there was the masked monster using Thunder Release..."

Only then did Shikamaru fully understand all the details of the previous battle between Qi Fei and Kakuzu.

It can only be said that the abilities of the two members of the Akatsuki organization, Kakuzu and Hidan, are so weird that if it were the first time they encountered them, they would easily be beaten to death.

"Anyway, this battle is thanks to your support. If it weren't for you, we might have to pay a heavier price."

Asuma, who had regained his energy a little, lit up a cigarette, looked back and forth at the bodies of Kakuzu and Hidan and sighed, "Although I couldn't punish these two guys with my own hands.

"But now that they are dead, they can be considered as their spirits in heaven to comfort the monks on Earth and the Fire Temple."

Seeing Asuma smoking a cigarette, Shikamaru said with a smile: "Now let's clean up the battlefield quickly, and then return to the village to report the situation to Lord Hokage."

"That's right." Asma held a cigarette in her mouth and blew out white smoke and said to Qi Fei, "Qi Fei, when you get back, come to the 'Barbeque Q' to join our celebration banquet. I'll treat you!"

"Okay!" Before Qi Fei could answer, Dingji on the side raised his fists and cheered, "Barbecue..."

"Hahaha..." Seeing Choji's look, Shikamaru and the others laughed.

On a heavy rainy evening, Tsunade, who had been waiting anxiously for a day, finally received good news from the front line - all members of the Akatsuki organization who invaded the Land of Fire and destroyed the Fire Temple were executed.

"Ah~ I can finally have a good sleep." Throwing the report on the desk, Tsunade spread out on the chair and said, "Thankfully I sent Qi Fei out, otherwise something would have happened to Asuma and the others."

Shizune on the side picked up the report and scanned it, and said happily: "Qi Fei's strength is still reassuring. As expected, Master Tsunade made the right choice to accept him as a disciple, otherwise..."

"Yeah, that old fox Danzo..." Tsunade frowned again after hearing Shizune's words.

On the one hand, Danzo had competed with him for Qi Fei two years ago. On the other hand, when Tsunade sent Qi Fei and the search team out to find the Akatsuki organization, Danzo started to make small moves again.

He kept secretly sending some members of the Root organization to approach Orochimaru secretly. He also took advantage of the fact that Kakashi Ban was short of manpower and placed a member of the "Root" in Kakashi Ban, under the euphemistic name: "Supervisor"

The situation of the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki".

What's even more hateful is that the two elders agreed. Judging from their aggressiveness and joint pressure, it was obvious that they were colluding with Danzo.

"Isn't it because I didn't listen to them and arrange someone last time?" Tsunade bit her nails and muttered to herself, "The person Danzo arranged for must have a conspiracy, and Kakashi must pay attention to it."

In fact, it's not that Tsunade hasn't tried to disband "The Root". After all, she is not the Third Hokage and does not need this kind of organization that is responsible for doing dirty work.

However, the two elders disagreed, and disbanding "Gen" would only allow Danzo to completely hide behind the scenes, making it difficult to monitor. Therefore, without absolute certainty, Tsunade decided to temporarily retain the existence of "Gen".

"It's a pity that I don't know why Qi Fei is not interested in these things, and I can't even ask him to help me take over the ANBU." Tsunade turned to look out the window and complained at the heavily raining Konoha Village, "If he was here, I think

Danzo, do you dare to jump like this?"

"It's a balance. Such strong strength and talent are paired with such a salty personality." Shizune said with a helpless expression while hugging Dodo.

Unexpectedly, Tsunade raised her fist and shouted: "Forget it, he actually said that he will not be a ninja in one year! Damn it... I have already accommodated him so much, and he still dares to pick a mule for me!

"No, I will never agree to this. Does he think this is just playing house? He didn't even think about it for me..."

Shizune looked at Tsunade losing her temper with a wry smile.

She knew that this was Tsunade's way of venting her emotions after she had relaxed. After all, the emergence of the Akatsuki organization had put a lot of pressure on her before. Now that she saw that the matter was successfully resolved, the emotions in her heart naturally needed to be vented.

"Huh~" Sure enough, Tsunade, who had been yelling at the heavy rain for a long time, spread out on the chair again, picked up the tea and took a sip and said, "Now that the threat from the Akatsuki organization has disappeared, it is time to deal with the issue of Orochimaru..."

"Hokage-sama!"

Just when Tsunade was about to discuss the arrangements for Orochimaru and Sasuke with Shizune, a shout suddenly came from the door of the office.

"Come in!"

With Tsunade's agreement, the ninja from the intelligence department came in with a report. After handing the report to Tsunade, he said: "Hokage-sama, we successfully analyzed part of Scorpion's memory and discovered part of the Akatsuki organization's intelligence.

.”

"What?!" Tsunade looked at the report in her hand in surprise.

On the training ground on the outskirts of Konoha Village, Naruto was lying under a canopy made by Yamato with a wooden shield, silently looking at the leaves in his hands.

After unremitting efforts, he can now easily cut off leaves and cut off flowing waterfalls.

But according to Kakashi, this level is not enough. Integrating property changes into the Rasengan is the real difficulty.

"It's really difficult. Can I really do it?" Naruto couldn't help but wonder.

If Qi Fei hadn't shown him the complete Wind Release Rasengan, he would even have doubted whether such a thing could really be done.

Whenever he wanted to give up, as long as he remembered the devastating power of the Wind Release Rasengan, he was instantly full of motivation.

"Naruto!" Kakashi, holding a lunch box in his hand, shouted to Naruto in the rain, "I have good news and bad news for you."

"Huh?" Naruto sat upright and shouted, "Is it a method of cultivation?"

Entering the awning, Kakashi placed the packed lunch box on the chair and said to Naruto and the exhausted Yamato: "Let's eat something first."

"You can eat it later! Kakashi-sensei, please tell me how to practice!" Naruto urged with shining eyes.

"Uh~ From a certain point of view, it doesn't matter." Kakashi said with a smile, "The good news is that the Akatsuki organization that invaded the Land of Fire has been eliminated. You don't have to worry about your safety."

With that said, Kakashi said seriously: "The bad news is that the problem of the Akatsuki organization has been solved. Next is the problem of Orochimaru and Sasuke. If you can't persuade Sasuke earlier..."

"Sasuke..." Naruto couldn't help but swallowed when he thought of the fate of the ninja village's treatment of rebellious ninjas.

"So, in order to gain Sasuke's recognition, your strength must be improved quickly." Kakashi narrowed his eyes and smiled.

It's not that Kakashi wants to put pressure on Naruto, it's that Sasuke doesn't talk nonsense to anyone other than Naruto.

Therefore, Kakashi had to improve Naruto's strength as much as possible so that Naruto could gain Sasuke's recognition as a breakthrough to save Sasuke. And Naruto was happy with this.
