Konoha's task master

Seeing that Obito was intact, Nohara Rin finally felt relieved and returned to her cabin to prepare dinner for everyone.

On the platform, the natural energy was slightly chaotic, with Masako Mori and Qianxue Shougu as the starting points absorbing the surrounding natural energy, like two invisible whirlpools.

Seeing this scene, Yakumo can confirm that the two of them have mastered the Sage Mode very well and are expected to officially go to the One Piece world to carry out the Proof of Overlord mission within ten days.

The candidates for this mission, Yakumo, have already decided on three people to go with them. There are too many people to take care of their safety. More importantly, Qianxue Qianxue and Masako Mori are both certified by the game system as having full intimacy.

In a sense, he is recognized by the game system as one of his own, and he would never want anyone to reveal Yakumo's secrets.

A few other friends may go down and explore together.

Next to him, Uchiha Itachi was practicing the Hatake Secret Code. His movements were very smooth, and the connections between his moves were quite coherent, as if he had been practicing swordsmanship for several years.

But in fact, he has been exposed to the Hatake Secret Code for only a month, but his achievements are comparable to others' years of hard work. His talent is really shocking.

Yakumo walked to Itachi and corrected his mistake.

Mistakes must be corrected immediately. If they develop into habits, it will be extremely difficult to correct them at that time.

Uchiha Itachi: "Master, do I need to work harder?"

"The progress is already very good now. Of course, the most important thing is not to practice repeatedly, but to think about...your own sword skills."

Yakumo thought for a few seconds and answered carefully.

"Understood, Master, I personally feel that my sword skills should be like a blazing torch, like the blazing sun that turns darkness into day."

Uchiha Itachi held the short-bladed fire flower with both hands and waved it hard.

Yakumo looked at the trajectory of the blade and felt that the surrounding temperature had risen a few degrees. This high temperature phenomenon stopped when Uchiha Itachi retracted the blade.

It's a pity...it couldn't ignite the flames.

Although he is young, his eyes when wielding the sword are as sharp as a sharp knife. Yakumo is sure that Uchiha Itachi's achievements in the future will never stop at the Kage level, at least he will be a normal super Kage.

In Itachi Uchiha, Yakumo saw endless potential.

"Okay, that's it for today."

Yakumo stretched out his hand and once again warmed and strengthened the body of Uchiha Itachi. He did not want to be covered in hidden wounds and overdraw his future potential when he returned from One Piece.

Practicing this kind of thing is very dangerous if it is too much or too little.

"Thank you, master."

Uchiha Itachi smiled shyly.

There is a slight aroma of food spreading in the air.

Ten minutes later, Yakumo retracted his hands and saw Nohara Lin already carrying dinner to the wooden table on the platform.

"Itachi, please stay and eat together."

"Okay." Uchiha Itachi nodded vigorously.

In a flash of light, Obito Uchiha appeared in Ryūchi Cave, obviously coming for dinner, and he immediately helped Nohara Rin put the dishes and chopsticks with some attentiveness.

"Let's eat, brothers!!"

Uchiha Obito shouted at the top of his lungs.

Chiyuki Chiyuki and Masako Mori stood up and stopped practicing the sage mode. Kakashi also put away his white teeth.

Everyone sat down separately and sat around according to their relationship. For example... Obito was close to Nohara Rin. Yakumo and Masako Mori were side by side, and Qianyuki took the initiative to approach Uchiha Itachi.

Only Kakashi was alone.

The meals were sumptuous, mostly meat. Since everyone was training all day long, they needed to eat more meat to replenish their body's energy consumption.

Everyone used their chopsticks and began to eat happily.

Yakumo thought for a while and said.

"By the way...this place will be our secret base in the future.

It is best not to let others know about the existence of this base. After all, if there is an attack, this can also be used as a refuge.

At the same time, there is a defense system in this base, and people outside the safe list will be attacked by the surrounding wooden creations."

Everyone in turn promised not to disclose the existence of this secret base to outsiders, especially Obito, who vowed not to inform outsiders of the existence of the base even if he died.

"If forced by outsiders, just hide the part about the defense system. The enemy will naturally attack early when they enter this space. Unless the enemy's strength is comparable to mine, there will be no chance of survival."

Everyone nodded and remembered the special method of destroying enemies in their hearts.

"Furthermore... I will leave Konoha in the next two years, and Masako Mori and Chiyuki Sangoku will go with me." Yakumo continued.

Uchiha Obito was very surprised.

"No way, two years is so long?"

A friend who met often suddenly mentioned that he would be leaving for about two years, which directly ruined the cheerful atmosphere. Obito's face was full of reluctance.

"Since there is a base, we should be able to... meet through here, right?" Nohara Rin asked Yakumo.

Everyone present had more or less reluctance in their eyes, with the exception of Itachi Uchiha, who was still young and could not understand separation.

"In the past two years... we shouldn't be able to meet each other. The place we go to will block the transmission ability of the key." Yakumo continued.

"Will this trip be dangerous?"

Uchiha Obito asked. When he looked at the table full of delicious food, it was difficult for him to have an appetite. He couldn't suppress the reluctance in his heart.

In the past, although Yakumo would disappear from time to time, it would never last more than half a year. Today, he suddenly said that he would leave for two years...

"There will definitely be some danger, but... I have made careful plans and I want to escape unscathed... there should be no problem."

"Hey." Uchiha Obito just sighed.

"Yakumo, I wish you a smooth trip."

Kakashi blessed him aloud, with reluctance in his eyes.

"Eat, eat, it's not like I won't come back!"

Masako Mori opened her mouth to liven up the atmosphere and picked up a large piece of beef.

"That's right, let's eat." Yougu Qianxue agreed.

"Yes, let's eat first."

Everyone moved their chopsticks, the atmosphere was a little dull and no longer as cheerful as before, especially Obito's expression was almost out of control.

After the meal, Yakumo sent Uchiha Itachi home.

The two of them were walking on the road to the Uchiha clan. The air was filled with the fragrance of flowers. As far as their eyes could see, cherry blossom trees were blooming quietly on both sides of the road.

"Master, pay attention to safety." Uchiha Itachi said seriously.

"Don't worry, your master is someone who has experienced strong winds and waves."

"In the past two years, I will work hard to practice sword skills and quietly wait for the return of my master!" Itachi Uchiha promised.

Yakumo looked at the cherry blossom forest and suddenly thought of Uchiha Sasuke who was about to be born, and couldn't help but reveal a bit of a bad smile on his face.

"I remember that your brother will be born soon."

"Yeah, yeah, I will work hard to practice swordsmanship and protect my brother!"

When it came to Uchiha Sasuke, Itachi's expression suddenly became very excited, as if he had met the love of his life and couldn't wait to share it with others.

"I can see that you seem to like your brother very much."

"That's right, when I felt Sasuke, I suddenly felt that my life became more vivid. Even working hard to practice swords...has great meaning." Uchiha Itachi raised his head and replied to Yakumo.

.

"On this street... some trees are straight and tall, and some trees are branchy and leafy but very short. Do you know why these two completely different results occur." Yakumo pointed to the trees on both sides and asked.

road.

"I know this. Some trees have been pruned, while others have been allowed to grow." Itachi Uchiha immediately replied.

"In fact, the same is true for human growth. If you love your brother deeply, you should pay more attention to restraining him instead of letting him grow up and get into all kinds of bad habits."

"Bad habit?"

"For example...head iron."

Uchiha Itachi asked in confusion: "Master, what is a head iron?"

"In battle, compete with masters of Taijutsu to learn Taijutsu, fight with Masters of Ninjutsu with Ninjutsu, use the Three Magatama Sharingan and Mangekyo Sharingan to fight against Genjutsu, fight with sword masters in close combat, and use Thunder Release to fight against thunder.

Shadow competition...."

"Master, what you are saying seems...stupid?"

"Of course it can also be pride, paranoia, or indifference."

"I understand. I will be proud of Sasuke with all my heart and let him understand humility and politeness, enthusiasm and kindness, and how to fight with others."

"Yes, in addition to doting on your younger brother, you must also teach him."

"In this way, I assume the responsibility of my brother's identity."

"I see!"

Uchiha Itachi immediately replied, suddenly having a sacred mission in his mind, and several plans for training Sasuke emerged in his mind.

"Come on, I believe you can train Sasuke into a weapon!"

Yakumo rubbed Uchiha Itachi's hair and spoke very sincerely.

"Uh-huh!"

Uchiha Itachi ran home jumping, looking like a lively and playful rabbit from a distance.

"He must have found his mission, right?"

Yakumo said with a smile.

"Don't blame me, Erzhuzi or Tietouba, I've seen you unhappy for a long time, even dating back to junior high school."

Yakumo turned around and hummed a tune, jumped up and went home.

That night, before going to bed, Yakumo made two more healing light balls, placed them behind the storage scroll, and lay on the bed to fall asleep.

The next day, Yakumo was a little surprised. He couldn't find Masako Mori's aura within his range of perception. In other words...he stayed out all night and was replaced!

Yakumo felt a little unhappy in his heart. It could be said that the situation had changed, and he experienced the helplessness of being alone in an empty room for once.

After simply getting dressed and washing up, Yakumo went to the kitchen and ate the breakfast prepared by the shadow clone. If Masako Mori was not here...he would have no reason to cook in his own body.

On the way to eat, Yakumo received the reward from the daily mission.

Worrying Bones Qianxue, YYDS!

After the meal, Yakumo returned to the bedroom and consumed all the life source energy to create two healing light balls. As the production proficiency increased, the energy loss during production was reasonably reduced.

Yakumo estimates that he should be able to create eight balls of light every day.

These are eight... opportunities that are enough to change the situation of the battle!

Yakumo now has four in stock.

Yakumo flew out of the window, first went to the Hokage's office, handed four healing light balls to Hatake Sakumo, and gave instructions on how to use them.

This can be regarded as providing Hatake Sakumo with four trump cards to fight back. Especially when the enemy is about the same strength as him, it may even directly change the outcome.

Yakumo naturally received another thank you from Hatake Sakumo for this move, and taking this opportunity, he confessed his intention to leave Konoha within ten days.

Upon hearing this, Hatake Sakumo reminded Yakumo to pay attention to safety, but did not give any other instructions.

After Yakumo bowed to Hatake Sakumo, he turned and left.

In fact, Yakumo and others can leave now and go to the world of One Piece, but the monthly tasks for July have not yet been completed.

All we can do is wait patiently...

During this time, Yakumo has already begun to collect supplies, including a large amount of fresh water and various ingredients that can be easily stored, as well as steaks that have been grilled.

Of course there are various seasonings and charcoal for barbecue.

At noon that day... After experiments, Yakumo determined that the effect of the healing light ball was equivalent to a powerful palm sensu that lasted for thirty seconds. Because it was taken orally, the treatment process was from the inside to the outside.

It has a stronger effect on internal injuries.

After leaving the Hokage's office, Yakumo injected chakra into the silver key. Ten seconds later...the sense of teleportation hit.

When he opened his eyes again, he was already in Longdi Cave.

Masako Mori is practicing the sage mode on the platform. This location is also the area with the richest natural energy in the entire Ryūchi Cave.

"Have you eaten in the morning?" Yakumo asked.

"Eat the breakfast made by Lin."

"Okay." Yakumo nodded and walked towards the wooden house.

"Isn't someone angry because I stayed out all night?"

Masako Mori's tone was teasing.

"Angry? How could it be... I didn't sleep at home yesterday either."

Yakumo retorted unceremoniously, exerted force on his feet, and disappeared directly from Masako Mori's face. His back looked somewhat angry.

In the wooden house, Yakumo finished the breakfast prepared for Masako Mori. Through the glass, he saw Masako Mori...continued to practice the sage mode, with an unknown smile on his face.

Both Masako Mori and Chiyuki Sangoku are under tremendous pressure. They are afraid of becoming a drag on Yakumo, and they are afraid that the enemy will use them to design plans against Yakumo.

This leads to... They seize every second to practice.

Yakumo clicked on the game panel and found that his attributes and main skills had reached a point where they could not be improved unless he saved 20,000 gold coins to continue to upgrade the Wooden Escape Codex.

When the time came in the afternoon, Yakumo went to the security department... and gave four healing light balls to Uchiha Fugaku as a reward for the Uchiha clan's help to Hatake Sakumo.

Time... flies by quickly.

During the following period, Yakumo worked hard to create healing light balls and gave four to his friends in case of emergency.

Before leaving, Yakumo went to Konoha Hospital. Last time he completed thirty days of tasks in one day. Today, he plans to use one day to complete sixty days of tasks.

By the way...say goodbye to Reiko Aoyama.

Konoha Hospital, in the laboratory.

Yakumo quickly processed the life cells in front of him. Next to him were dozens of shadow clones who were working hard. He could cultivate nearly a hundred life cells in almost five minutes.

This is...the benefit brought by the increased degree of Taoism. Yakumo has a deeper understanding of cell tissue, so he will be more comfortable cultivating it.

"Sister Aoyama, I will leave Konoha for two years."

Yakumo didn't even raise his head and spoke as if he were chatting.

Aoyama Reiko didn't show any reaction when she heard this, she still lowered her head and dealt with the life cells.

There was a click.

The petri dish shattered and shards of glass flew out.

Yakumo's hands paused slightly, and then quickly continued...processing the life cells before standing up.

The pause just now was because he felt real sadness from Reiko Aoyama, not reluctance...but pure sadness.

Nonoyu stepped forward to put away the broken petri dish, but Reiko Aoyama froze in place and did not continue to cultivate life cells.

After a long silence...

Aoyama Reiko spoke.

"Shizune and Nonoyu, let me give you a day off today."

Nonoyu and Shizune immediately stood up and left the laboratory, and closed the door of the laboratory tightly.

At this time, only Yakumo and Reiko Aoyama were left in the laboratory, neither of whom spoke, and there was only heavy sadness in the air.

Yakumo continues to process the life cells.

Aoyama Reiko: "You won't come back within two years?"

"It's most likely so."

Silence, another long silence.

"I often work overtime during this period, why don't you...Yakumo help my sister warm up and recuperate her body?" Reiko Aoyama said suddenly.

"no problem."

One of the shadow clones, after finishing the work at hand, came to Reiko Aoyama... and put his hands on his shoulders.

The azure energy mixed with the golden arc spreads freely through Reiko Aoyama's body, repairing the damaged tissues and strengthening the activity of the cells. More golden arcs pour into the body, performing deep strengthening.

Reiko Aoyama's body slowly becomes stronger...

Half an hour later, the shadow clone dissipated.

Yakumo turned his head and looked at Reiko Aoyama.

The black gas diffuses to form brand new words.

Name: Reiko Aoyama

Age: 36 years old

Physique: 43-45 Intelligence: 43-44

Intimacy: 100 (full value)

Status: Unable to form a team

Yakumo once again saw full intimacy.

Reiko Aoyama: "Be safe and come back alive."

"Don't worry, I will come back alive."

"That's good, that's good."

A few hours later, Yakumo asked Reiko Aoyama to leave and left five healing light balls.

After he left, Reiko Aoyama covered her heart with her hands, transparent tears streaked across her beautiful face, and the intense sadness spread out.

Yakumo sighed softly in the sunshine. His feelings for Aoyama Reiko were very simple from beginning to end. They were just respect for his master or his sister.

But with Reiko Aoyama...the family relationship gradually deteriorated.

At present, many arrangements inside Konoha have been completed, and the healing light ball has been given away as a life-saving trump card.

Yakumo quickly collected himself and flew to the tavern.

Jiraiya is drinking alcohol here, alone.

After the resurrection of the rope tree... he hadn't seen Tsunade for a long time, and even stopped drinking for the sake of the rope tree Tsunade. This was undoubtedly a difficult thing, but Tsunade did it...

It has to be said that love can create miracles.

Yakumo did not ask Jiraiya to help monitor the rope tree, but gave Jiraiya five healing light balls and sealed a more powerful healing light ball on him, hoping to save his life at the critical moment.

At the same time, Yakumo gave Jiraiya four extra healing light balls, hoping that he could help pass them on to Tsunade.

The two had a simple conversation, mainly what Jiraiya said, and Yakumo listened patiently. As the relationship between Jiraiya and Tsunade became increasingly distant, at this moment, he looked like a white-haired loser.

Before leaving... Yakumo thought for a while and said to Jiraiya.

"The rope tree is secretly practicing the secret technique left by Orochimaru."

Since then, Konoha's arrangements... have been completed!
