Ninja Ice House

In addition, there are other options.

For example, his subordinates Sora, Fumaran, and Guren are all okay, but they really can't find a container and are in a hurry to change their bodies. A "mediocre person" like Kabuto Yakushi can actually use one.

As for the other nonsense, I won’t mention it.

Being alone, Orochimaru hesitated.

That was Terumi Mei who was imprinted with the Curse Seal of Heaven a few years ago.

At first, Orochimaru didn't know that the female Mist ninja was the chosen successor of the Mizukage, but later he realized what kind of person he had provoked.

Ordinary ninjas and children who are not mentally strong enough may be bewitched by the power of the Heavenly Curse Seal and Orochimaru.

One of the Five Shadows, even if it is prepared, is not easy to obtain.

Now, Orochimaru probably understands that Mei Terumi will not take the initiative to come to him. The unique double-blood successor in the ninja world is about to become the fifth generation Mizukage. If you don't think about it, this cooked duck,

Probably about to fly away.

"The Kingdom of Water, I don't have time to go there now. After the "Konoha Collapse Plan" is over, find an opportunity to go there!"

Some things must come to an end.

------------------

Winter has turned to spring, and the season of blooming mountain flowers has arrived again.

Unfortunately, the climatic anomaly in the ninja world continues.

After the early spring, sandstorms in the Kingdom of Wind have occurred more frequently than in previous years. In the southern part of the Kingdom of Fire, drought and lack of rain have lasted for nearly a hundred days. The water levels of rivers and lakes have dropped significantly, and even some shipping has been affected.

There are continuous heavy rains in the central and northern parts, and flash floods, landslides, etc. occur from time to time.

Especially the Country of Rain, which is already a flood-prone place, is particularly serious this year.

After the Kingdom of Thunder experienced a mild winter, in the past year, the late spring cold has become stronger than the last, causing crops in the fields to freeze to death. In the second half of this year, if there is no support from external forces, there will be a food shortage.

The Kingdom of Water has not escaped disaster either. Hurricanes hit one after another, causing local residents to suffer miserably.

"Actually, it's much better than I thought. I thought there would be more extreme weather, but this is it?"

Gu Shan Bu Shui said nonchalantly.

Because of the timely response and the anticipation that the first half of this year might not be easy, the Gushan family has also increased investment to fully resist possible natural and man-made disasters.

A large number of ninjas were hired to help, and the plan was implemented step by step, minimizing the negative impact.

Kaguya Otsutsuki did not refute what Kosugi Bosui was boasting about, but said seriously:

"There are spirits in the ninja world, but their consciousness is ignorant and they don't appear to be very smart. They are like babies with all their emotions, anger, sorrows and joys hanging on their faces. They want to avenge themselves on the spot, and they use big tricks when they disagree with each other. But in fact, in

In terms of being cunning, it doesn't pose a threat at all."

So, basically, whatever it wants to do, it has to do it in an upright and grand manner, without micromanaging.

Naturally, it is also easy to be exploited.

Regarding this, the Otsutsuki family has rich experience.

"The so-called backlash is enough to survive the first two waves, and it will only get weaker and weaker in the future. They... don't hold grudges and are easy to fool."

Well, with Kaguya Otsutsuki as a "senior" explaining it, Fusugi Fusui also understood why the problems he was about to encounter were so unworthy of mention.

In fact, what the ninja world rejects is not the Otsutsuki clan members themselves, but rather the fact that they are quite sensitive to the "illegal" extraction of natural energy.

Like the three major psychic beasts, Jiraiya and Uzumaki Naruto, using sage mode is a more beneficial thing for the ninja world.

The direct connection between natural energy and ninjas is not very close, which also leads to the ninja world, which uses natural energy to conduct blurred will, to grow very slowly and react extremely slowly.

Every time they use Sage Mode, it is actually a good opportunity for them to increase their "experience" and "experience", and absorb a large amount of high-quality chakra.

Know yourself and the enemy and you can fight a hundred battles without danger.

Since you want to do something to make the ninja world unhappy, you naturally have to understand what the other party is, what characteristics it has, what its strengths and weaknesses are, and whether there are any weaknesses that can be exploited.

Through Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's explanation, Kosugi Bosui also understood some of the experience of how to make mistakes in the ninja world in a weak situation, accumulate strength, and finally make a comeback in one fell swoop.

For example, developing mermaid forces and orcs is actually a good detour strategy.

The primates of all things are human beings, and ninjas are a group that has the core extraordinary power. It is a good way to open up another path outside of them and avoid the main conflict.

Without the strength provided by the mermaid clan and thousands of fighters, the sacred tree would not have grown so fast, and Gushan Bu Shui would not have been able to harvest the fruits of the sacred tree so easily.

Now, the most difficult moment has passed, and Gu Shan Bu Shui no longer has to risk his life to play any forbidden skills.

The samsara eye is the ultimate answer.

As long as you control the sacred tree step by step to absorb natural energy, you can become stronger. There is no need to consider too complicated combat skills.

In contrast, some useful thinking can be more helpful to Gu Shan Bushui's future path.

------------------

After a trip to the Land of Tea and completing a C-level mission, Team Thirteen embarked on their way back to Konoha Village.

This is not the first intermediate mission for Class 13.

There were no surprises during this trip.

Although Kurenai Yuhi is a novice jounin, she is very cautious. The unique carefulness and shrewdness of female ninjas have saved Class 13 a lot of trouble.

As a ninja team whose teachers and students are both female, everyone gets along fairly harmoniously.

Even Kurama Yakumo, who is usually taciturn, has gradually integrated into the group. Compared with the past when she had little contact with her classmates, this is still a big improvement.

"Yakumo, you didn't wear glasses before, why do you keep wearing dark glasses without taking them off now? You should also use goggles to protect your eyesight..."

Generally, ninjas will not wear glasses unless they need to protect their eyes, have eye skills, or for concealment.

If you think about it, you will know that it is very inconvenient for the eyes when the ninja is moving at high speed, and it will block the viewing angle and affect the combat effectiveness.

Facing the question from the leader of the team, Kurenai Yuhi, Kurama Yakumo answered well prepared:

"To prevent the power of blood succession from overflowing, this is actually a scientific ninja tool with a strong sealing effect..."

Kurama Yakumo didn't lie, but this was only part of the truth.

If it weren't for the purpose of concealing the power of the Sharingan and suppressing the mental power that is always on the rise, there would be no need for such a troublesome thing.

"Scientific Ninja Tool?"

Hearing this, Kurenai Yuhi turned to look at the "artifact" wearing special gloves that could store chakra and secret techniques.

Also, the strange collars and half-armors of the two ninja dogs Sesshomaru and Hoshimaru don't seem to be ordinary things.

"Xiang Lin, what did you use...?"

"Yeah! There are several relatively mature products developed in my home laboratory. Let me try them out first. Later, I will have to submit my experience and opinions, ideas for improvement, etc. It's quite troublesome."

"I have heard about scientific ninja tools before, but now, it has reached this point?"

"I'm not too sure either."

Xianglin casually took out a few slices of high-end pet rations, put them on a plate, and asked his combat partners to replenish their energy before replying slowly,

"It is said that there are some unmanned merchant ships, chakra-powered agricultural machinery, etc. One or two low-level ninjas can do the work that used to require hundreds of farmers, and they can do it quickly and well. This year, the south was hit by a disaster, and my father mobilized

We have purchased a lot of new machinery, moved mountains and seas, built water conservancy projects, and opened up a large number of high-quality farms. When they mature, they will be put on the market to crack down on the unscrupulous traders who hoard..."

"I'm asking about combat."

Yuhi Hong was confused.

Extraordinary power is used for production and so on. What does this have to do with ninjas?

Only secular aristocrats care about whether they should increase food production and build water conservancy projects, etc.?

What Yuhi Kurenai cares about is the scientific ninja tools for combat used by Kurama Yakumo and Kaoru, not the production machinery.

"This kind of thing is quite ordinary! The development of scientific ninja tools for ninjas is quite slow, but the combat ninja tools used with psychic beasts are very mature. At the end of last year, I saw a wild boar shoulder-mounted ray cannon, which cost hundreds

It was just concentrated together, and the dense barrage rain was very scary. There was also a giant bear using a siege hammer. I had never actually seen it. I only saw a target hill next to the test site being completely defeated from a distance.

"

"This... doesn't seem to be used on people!"

"For war!"

"war?"

Yuhi Hong was silent.

Even in the ninja world war, this thing will definitely not be used. There is only one situation, and that is when dealing with tailed beasts and jinchuriki, it is very useful.

Or, when two armies line up and charge head-on to fight, they can be used to suppress fire.

However, the Ninja World War is said to be a war, but in fact it is a special battle between ninjas, and frontal legion battles rarely occur.

When this kind of thing is developed, Yuhi Hong is also at a loss as to which enemies it will have to deal with.

The firepower was obviously overflowing.

A kunai can kill a person, why must it be bombarded with siege cannons?

It’s such a waste to use anti-aircraft guns to kill mosquitoes!

"Did your father ever say what these things were developed for?"

"I don't know. They probably make weapons and sell them to the ninja village to make money!"

"Right!"

Although the Fusagi family has never directly participated in the ninja war, it does not prevent them from selling arms and making a fortune.

This is also the most likely possibility that Yuhi Hong can think of.

How far the truth is from that is unclear.

A few people found a clean and refreshing place, stopped for a while, and replenished food and water.

On the way back, there was no need to worry. The group even went to a nearby town to rest for a long time before continuing on the road.

After arriving at the nearest port terminal and boarding the liner directly to Shinjuku Town, the few of them relaxed.

There are a lot of people on this boat. It seems that because the local area is not easy, they are going to work in prosperous towns to earn some extra money and subsidize their families.

This also made several ninjas realize that the current situation of the Fire Country is actually not very good.

The prosperous Fire Nation is like this, and other places are not much better.

Fortunately, several large trading houses and factories in the ninja world have increased their production scale.

If Gushan Bu Shui had not decided to expand counter-cyclically, I am afraid the results would have been even worse.

In fact, the impact of this sudden economic crisis caused by extreme and abnormal weather is greater than everyone imagined.

Not only local small farmers can't hold on, but also many small nobles, landowners and wealthy businessmen who had a very comfortable life in the past are also having a hard time and have to sell their businesses to tide over the difficulties.

A large amount of land and assets have flowed into the market, and except for the daimyo and the Furusugi family, no one can take over the market.

The Gushan family who bought these assets did not suffer any loss. They bucked the trend and bought the stocks at the bottom. After a few years, when they recover, they will be high-quality assets and they will have no chance to buy them again.

Along the way, Kurenai Yuhi and others heard a lot of complaints and returned to Konoha Village with a lot of worries. After submitting the mission report, Kurenai Yuhi decided to take a few days off and rest a little.

After returning home, Kurenai Yuhi was about to take a rest when she received a notice from the ANBU and was summoned by the Third Hokage.

"Why didn't you tell me that you left not long ago? Why are you summoned now? What's the emergency?"

After pondering for a moment, Yuhihi Kurenai couldn't figure it out. She returned to the Hokage's house again and saw Sarutobi Hiruzen, whose face was as pale as water.

"Sandaime..."

"You came?"

"I wonder what your orders are?"

Isn't it convenient to say it when three students are present?

Or should I say, Kurama Yakumo and Kaoru got into trouble, what's wrong?

Unfortunately, Yuhi Hong guessed wrong.

"How is this child, Usami, doing these days?"

"Very good! She gets along well with her companions, makes rapid progress, and has strong receptivity. Being able to keep up with the training progress of Xiang Rin and Kurama Yakumo is a difficult task in itself. She actually did it. Even I am amazed."

"You haven't noticed the signs that she usually interacts with Uchiha Sasuke?"

"Never! She and Uchiha Sasuke are classmates, but I have never heard of any special intersection between them."

"Are there any indirect contacts through Xianglin?"

"This is even more impossible, Sandaime! Kaoru has a very cold personality and has nothing to do. She won't do anything to make introductions for others. Usami doesn't look like a flower who was confused by Uchiha Sasuke's face and couldn't figure out the direction.

Crazy kid."

"Then...that would be interesting."

As he spoke, Sarutobi Hiruzen handed a document to Yuhi Kurenai. After the latter looked at it for a few minutes, he asked with a strange expression:

"Uchiha Sasuke shows a tendency to care a lot about Usami? How is this possible? Is it a mistake? Kaoru has more presence than her!"

"The intelligence source is reliable! But..."

Being able to hide from the ANBU and get involved without knowing it is weird in itself.

"Are we going to launch an investigation? Usami is a good child. I don't think she is a spy or someone with ulterior motives."

After puffing on his pipe for a few times, Sarutobi Hiruzen decided to reveal some information.

"Usami is the person recommended by Elder Danzo. She is most likely the secret agent of 'Gen', but..."

Among the "tool men" organized by "Root", few are as agile as Usami. Sarutobi Hiruzen also asked Shimura Danzo, but unfortunately, the other party refused to provide more detailed information.
