My experience at Konoha Liver

"嘤嘤嘤!"

On the ocean, a group of whales are happily hunting.

In the center of them is a school of encased mackerel.

According to past habits, the whales in the whale group will enter the enclosure one by one in a specific order to eat.

But today, their actions were slightly different and they did not choose to eat directly.

Instead, the elderly female whale at the core of the whale group opens her mouth and spits out a small white water column.

Countless tiny marine fungal spores are wrapped in the water column.

These spores fall on the mackerel, quickly take root and sprout, and grow long mycelium.

Seeing this scene, the group of whales became even more cheerful and began their final hunt.

Under the influence of their huge size, each mackerel was quickly killed.

Under the influence of special mycelium, these mackerel float quietly in the seawater, rising and falling with the fluctuation of the current.

In the past oceans, whales have always been known as 'foodies'.

Sometimes I only eat the liver, sometimes I only eat the tongue.

But this is not because they are naturally picky, but because there are no dinner plates in the ocean.

No matter what the prey is, the countdown to eating begins the moment it is hunted.

They will quickly fall to the bottom of the sea under the influence of gravity.

This leaves the whales with no choice but to eat parts that are both nutritious and convenient for them to eat in a short period of time.

These hyphae, which allow prey to float in seawater, have undoubtedly changed this.

In addition, these mycelium are modified by Nobu Tsuruma these days based on marine saprophytic fungi. After the initial 'rooting' stage, they can only feed on rotting meat.

In other words, they not only allow whales to possess the ability of 'warehousing', a key ability for the advancement from a hunting and gathering civilization to a 'farming' civilization.

It also endowed them with the ability to ‘preserve freshness’ that was only available in the industrial era.

This change for the whale group is undoubtedly earth-shaking.

However, in Nobu Tsuruma's opinion, the most important thing about these hyphae is that they contain chakra.

In the ninja world, although chakra is theoretically everywhere, in fact the distribution is different in different regions.

The biggest difference is between land and sea.

This is probably because although the sacred tree is magical, it is still a tree in the final analysis and likes to take root on the land.

This has led to a result: tigers one or two stories high have appeared on land.

The toads living in Mt. Myouki can even grow from the size of a basin to the height of a mountain in just three years.

Although this may be attributed to Jiraiya and Naruto as contractors, it proves the influence of chakra on the size of living things.

But in the ocean, whales, which are also at the top of the food chain, are only less than one-tenth larger than Nobu Tsuruma's kin in his previous life.

Although the marine saprophytic fungi donated by Tsuruma Nobu cannot help the whales to even out the gap between sea and land caused by the nature of the sacred tree, it can still make up one or two.

'I am a blue whale who has transformed into an island.'

'Has the biggest figure.'

On the sea, Nobu Tsuruma looked at the hunting whales, and softly hummed a song he liked in his previous life in his mind.

Maybe one day in the future, under the influence of chakra, a "whale that turns into an island" will really appear among the whales in front of us.

But they are definitely not isolated islands, but archipelagos!

This can be regarded as Nobu Tsurama thanking them for accompanying them all the way to the deep sea, and rushing out without hesitation when facing Deidara.

But just when Nobu Tsurama and others were about to leave the sea, the whales who were enjoying the food suddenly became wary.

The young whales, who were rolling and expressing their happiness with their white bellies, instantly formed a huge whale circle, guarding the young and old inside.

At the same time, a sharp and slender knocking sound was made, warning Tsuruma Nobu and the others.

This group of smart guys had already recognized that what was hiding in the belly of the 'transparent mute' was a group of two-legged beasts on the shore, so they had already 'taught' Tsurujian Nobu and others the internal language of the whale group.

After hearing their warning, Tsuruma Nobu and others, who were originally in a relaxed atmosphere, suddenly became serious.

"Could it be that Uchiha Itachi and the kid who used Bakuju were unwilling to give up and left and came back?"

Darui kept looking around the sky and muttered.

Sakura walked to the edge of the transparent whale, put her hand on the water, and used the Izuku no Jutsu.

"It seems like something is approaching quickly and is forming a circle around us."

After hearing Sakura's words, combined with the special reactions of the whales, Tsuruma Nobu and Darui looked at each other and understood at the same time.

The fog shadow is coming!

And the moment they made eye contact, swordfish appeared in their sights one after another.

The one in the lead seems to have undergone some kind of special training and has excellent intelligence and the ability to transmit information over long distances.

Tsuruma Shin, Sasuke, and Sakura used their own perception methods to simultaneously feel a special water wave containing chakra, which spread into the distance as the swordfish tail swung.

And he always stays thousands of meters away, and has a very strong sense of self-protection.

"It seems we can't escape. These swordfish are faster. Even if we ride a whale and dive to the bottom of the sea, we can't escape their pursuit."

"Kirikage is worthy of being a great ninja village. He actually found a way to deal with my secret technique in such a short period of time."

"Get ready to fight!"

He Jianxin watched more and more swordfish appear, turned his head and said behind him.

Sasuke, Shino, and Sakura silently took out the ration pills from their ninja tool bags to replenish their chakra.

Except for Sasuke, all three of them have slightly lower chakra levels.

And even Sasuke, because he has Chidori, an A-level ninjutsu that consumes a lot of chakra, he doesn't have enough chakra after a battle.

On the contrary, Nobu Tsurama, because in the past three years he has continuously used the complete White Zetsu captured in the Uchiha secret base to increase chakra, the total amount of chakra now has reached 6500, which is almost a little over 2k.

In addition, in the previous battle with the Akatsuki organization, he actually didn't take action, he just controlled the transparent whale, and took a wave of Tsukuyomi without any damage, and now he still has plenty of chakra.

But what he was about to face was the Kiri Ninja, one of the five great ninja villages.

Even though it is ranked lower among the five major ninja villages, for a single ninja, it is still a behemoth.

Therefore, Tsurujian Nobu was not too confident and put in the distress signal first.

As the gunpowder burned, the special signal flare continued to rise, and finally exploded suddenly at an altitude of 500 meters.

The symbols of Konoha and Kumo ninja appear in the sky in green and white respectively.

However, the first person to see them was not the reinforcements from both sides.

"Huh, how arrogant, showing off their respective Ninja Village logos in the waters of our Water Kingdom!"

"This is a provocation! It's definitely a provocation!"
