Escape From Konoha

A train whistled past with white smoke.

Kazuhime was sitting by the window in the single carriage, with a black briefcase on the table in front of her, her dark eyes looking at the lush forest scenery outside the window.

This section of the track is built along the forest, and passengers who can ride can enjoy the beauty of the forest.

Among the lush foliage are many fresh pink and white flowers.

The weather in March is no longer cold, and things are starting to recover again.

In fact, Kazuhime felt the magic of the train even more than the scenery outside the window.

For ninjas, the ninja world is not big, and it is not small.

Many areas belong to the artificial unopened area, inhabited by all kinds of wild beasts and poisonous insects. Ordinary people want to climb mountains and mountains, from one country to another, not to mention safety issues, just the time it takes to walk. , which is enough to make you daunted.

According to her standards, running with all her strength from the country of ghosts would take two days to reach the country of fire.

Most ninjas take three days.

And the speed at which she sprinted with all her strength was much faster than the train she was riding on.

This is very inconvenient for ordinary people to travel to foreign countries.

The birth of the train may change this situation.

Since two years ago, the number of carriages in the country of ghosts has become extremely small, basically to the point of being invisible.

With the introduction of government policies, trains have also become a new type of transportation to replace horse-drawn carriages in the minds of domestic people.

This is not only favored by the domestic people, but also has a very strong inducement ability for businessmen from abroad.

This is a good thing for the future development of the ninja world.

The more developed the industry, the more inefficient and cheap manpower becomes in some respects.

The skill of one person to control and operate the machine can be equal to the manual ability of a dozen or even dozens of people in the past.

When it comes to high-end industries, that is the field that manual ability cannot reach, and can only be guided by machines.

The only pity is that the current use of trains has not spread to other countries, but only in the country of ghosts.

Leaving such a convenient environment and entering a country with low industrial capacity, Kazuhime was able to deeply understand how inconvenient her past life was.

With the rise of industrial capacity, countries will sooner or later completely open their doors and start a new era of trade.

But this kind of thing, the future is also full of uncertainty, at least the traditional nobles are still hesitating.

Because mastering knowledge is a very dangerous term in this age when the mind is not open.

In particular, let knowledge spread to the lower level.

This will have an extremely bad and bad influence on the rule of the upper class.

So far, the rule of the nobles has relied on various monopolies to ensure their hereditary status and not be influenced by the lower classes.

Once a part of the monopoly is cracked, it means that its own interests will be absorbed by the lower layers.

Of course, not all nobles hold this ancient traditional thinking and firmly believe that they are the rulers of the 'eternal family'.

It's just that these nobles occupy too little proportion in the upper class of the whole, and they are not enough to shake the general trend.

It is also necessary to add a fire to completely cut off the illusions in some people's hearts.

And this fire can only be a raging fire called 'war'!

This time is three years, four years, maybe five years.

In short, the time of peace will not be long.

Although she is not a high-level military officer, Kazuhime can occasionally feel that the accumulation of the country of ghosts is close to saturation through some changes.

Before that, we must build a 'bridge' to the country of fire!

The train went all the way to the western coastal area, crossing the forest, the mountains and rivers where the ice and snow melted, and about the afternoon, it arrived at the site of the coastal city in the country of ghosts and stopped driving.

"Miss, you have arrived at the site, and the cruise ship to the country of waves at the port is also ready and can leave at any time."

The door of the single carriage was opened, and Cardo, wearing sunglasses, walked in and said respectfully to Kazuhime.

"It's hard work, let's go."

Yiji held the black briefcase in her hand, her long black hair fluttered lightly, and her pretty face was full of indifference.

"The Land of Waves..."

Since three years ago, the Nami Country Farmers and Workers Group obtained the rebel action to overthrow the local nobles, the Fire Country Daimyo House and Konoha Ninja Village have not relaxed for this organization for a moment.

Although Konoha advocates the principle of non-intervention, the ninjas of the land of ghosts, directly stationed in a place so close to the land of fire, will still make Hizan feel sleepless.

Now the only dispute between the country of fire and the country of ghosts is the control of the country of waves.

Fortunately, because the country of ghosts was too domineering in the country of waves, after using the peasant group to overthrow the local nobles of the country of waves, they immediately wanted to steal the results of the movement of the farmer group, swallow the fruits of victory, and indirectly control the country of waves. the goal of.

It is a pity that the senior management of the agricultural and industrial group has foresight and recruited the Thunder Light Group in the underground black market one step ahead of time.

The famous Leiguang Corps, under the premise of sufficient remuneration, is not afraid of the soldiers of the Kingdom of Ghosts, and has destroyed the secret operations of the Kingdom of Ghosts in the Kingdom of Waves several times.

This also made Ri Zhan look at Leiguang Group with admiration.

There are very few bounty hunters with honesty in the underground black market, and there are very few bounty hunters who are not afraid of ninjas from big countries.

The Thunder Corps is one of the bounty hunter groups.

Especially in the past few years and the country of ghosts, the reputation of the underground black market, the Leiguang group has been able to compete with Xuanyuanzhong.

Even if it was Konoha's actions in the country of waves, he had to look at Leiguang's face.

Fortunately, in the face of the issue of the Land of Waves, the Leiguang Group was hired by the Agricultural and Industrial Corps, and stood on the same line as Konoha. Otherwise, the Agricultural and Industrial Corps would have already been swallowed up by the Land of Ghosts.

Sitting in the office, Ri Zhan picked up the information document about the intelligence of the Leiguang Group and fell into deep thought.

Thunder Corps.

The leader's name is Chino.

She is a young woman, with an appearance age of about thirteen or fourteen years old, her real age is ominous.

Ninjutsu is to summon a powerful red dragon, which is suspected to be some unknown bloodline limit.

There are not many members under his command, but each of them has a special secret technique and blood succession limit, which can be said to be one of the most terrifying bounty hunter teams in the underground black market.

The danger level is not inferior to Xuan Yuanzhong who defeated Sannin Jiraiya.

Looking at the huge red dragon captured in the photo, it is the ninjutsu model summoned by the leader of the Thunder Light Group.

Looking at this huge red dragon, Ri Zhan always felt that this kind of technique had been heard before, and it felt a little familiar.

But no matter how much I think about it, I can't remember where I heard about this kind of ninjutsu, and Rizan gave up thinking deeply and confirmed the type of blood succession of the leader of the Leiguang regiment. This kind of thing can be analyzed by the people in the intelligence department. .

But even with the strong intervention of the Leiguang Group, the situation of the Agricultural and Industrial Group in the Land of Waves is not optimistic.

The reason why the country of ghosts is strong is not because their ninjas are wandering soldiers, but in groups.

What's more, as far as Hizan knows, Chiba Kazuhime, the ninja leader who settled in the land of ghosts, has never really done anything so far.

The opponent is the daughter of Chiba Shiraishi and Uchiha Ruri, who once defeated his second son Sarutobi Asma with three or two moves, his strength is unfathomable.

Ri Zhan's eyes showed a dignified color.

How to solve the ghost country ninja rooted in the country of the wave has become a problem faced by the agricultural labor group and the country of fire at the same time.

And if you want to completely eradicate this hidden danger, if you don't repel Chiba Kazuhime, then this matter will be impossible to talk about.

The other party is probably a ninja of the same level as Kakashi.

"Lord Hokage."

A figure suddenly landed in front of Ri Zhan's desk.

Wearing an animal mask and carrying a short sheathed knife on his back.

It was Kakashi.

He held a document in his hand and placed it in front of Ri Zhan.

Seeing Kakashi coming over, Ri Zhan nodded, instead of picking up the document, he asked, "How is the investigation result?"

Kakashi pondered for a while and replied: "As expected by Hokage-sama, according to Anbu's investigation these days, there are indeed some problems with the identity of the other party. I didn't expect a Chunin to hide so well in the village. It's only now being noticed."

"If it wasn't for him being always close to the 'target', I wouldn't suspect him."

Ri Zhan opened the information file, and there was a photo prominently placed on it.

In the photo is an adult man with a gentle temperament, with a gentle smile and a very friendly attitude.

The name is Mizuki.

A teacher at Konoha Ninja School.

Although he is not much different in age from Kakashi, but limited by his talent, he can only stop at Chunin, and then pass the assessment and enter the ninja school to teach.

Before entering the ninja school to teach, the other party's resume also had some bad records.

During a mission, one of his companions was injured and unable to move. In order to complete the mission as soon as possible, Mizuki chose to brutally kill his companion to prevent his companion from dragging down the team and cause the mission to fail.

The matter was subsequently investigated and severely criticized by the upper echelons.

In view of the good attitude later, the upper management decided to give the other party another chance.

After entering the ninja school to teach, the other party also taught many outstanding students.

In view of this, the surveillance of Mizuki was withdrawn.

But I didn't expect that soon after the surveillance was withdrawn, Mizuki became active again.

This time his goal became even bigger, closer to the Nine-Tailed Man Zhuri, with unknown intentions.

Although it was well concealed, the people in Anbu still noticed it.

However, this time, Hizuchi did not scare the snake, but let Kakashi personally monitor the other party, wanting to see what the purpose of Mizuki's approach to Jiuweiren Zhuli was.

According to Kakashi and Anbe's investigation, Mizuki was close to the nine-tailed person Zhuri, and was instructed by someone.

Behind him, there is a hidden line.

"So, has the identity of the person behind him been investigated? Which party is the spy?"

Rizhan asked seriously.

It's no small matter that teachers at the ninja school have problems.

The ninja school is the most important ninja training institution in Konoha. Only those who have implemented the will of fire can enter and teach.

Once the teacher deviates from Konoha's will in some behaviors, he must be revoked from his position, monitored and investigated, and will not be released until there is no problem.

Originally, Mizuki deserved to be treated like this, but in order to catch the dark line behind the opponent, he couldn't act rashly at this moment.

"I can't see anything yet, but since the other party is close to Ren Zhuli, it must be the person behind him. He wants to use him to achieve something. And according to the time, it should be soon."

Naruto Uzumaki, the pillar force of the Nine Tails, is this year's freshman.

In a few days, it will be the graduation day of Ninja School.

With the opponent's lousy grades, it is completely impossible to pass the graduation exam of the ninja school normally.

The tail of the Wannian crane at the ninja school is not a joke.

Once the exam fails, it is the time when the opponent is most likely to invade.

If Mizuki wants to use the Nine-Tails Pillar Force to achieve what purpose, only then is the easiest time to achieve it.

Kakashi's thoughts coincided with Hiizaki's.

"However, Naruto-sama, don't you plan to let Naruto graduate from Ninja School this year? Or should we wait until tomorrow?"

"I am also considering this matter. Naruto's identity is special. If I lose the umbrella of the ninja school, many things will not be decided by me."

Kakashi heard Hiizaki's implication.

Compared with the insignificant chess piece like Mizuki, the root's attitude towards the strength of people and pillars is the problem.

"The reason why Naruto's ninjutsu performance is not good is entirely because of the power of the nine tails."

Thinking of this matter, Ri Zhan has even more headaches.

Naruto can be said to be Konoha's worst nine-tailed man.

Although the first two nine-tailed people Zhuli did not become perfect people, they were able to rely on their own abilities to force the nine-tails to contribute their strength to fight for themselves. When the Nine-Tails run wild, they can also use a powerful seal technique to restrict the Nine-Tails.

Compared with the previous two Nine-Tails Renzhuli, Naruto, as a Humanzhuli, was influenced by the strength of the Nine-Tails.

Once the power of the nine tails is rampant, Naruto, who lacks control, will evolve into a huge disaster.

At that time, the root will definitely take this opportunity to gain control of the nine tails.

Kakashi is not good at expressing his opinion on this matter.

He is also half-understood about the cultivation of Renzhuli, and his understanding is not deep.

But I also know that it is not easy for everyone in life.

He was supposed to be the hero who saved the village, but because of the uncontrollable power in his body, he was hated and hated by the people in the village.

Growing up in such a cold environment, most people's hearts are full of dissatisfaction and hatred for the world.

Compared to those people, Naruto, who still maintains an optimistic attitude, is an alternative.

But other than that, it just seems to be the case.

After all, without Hokage's order, rashly approaching the Nine-Tails Juri, even the Minister of Anbu, would be suspicious of Hokage.

Saying that, Hiizhan took out a crystal ball from the drawer and placed it on the table.

After entering the chakra, a picture quickly appeared on the crystal ball.

It is a classroom where teacher Iruka Uno and students are practicing indoor transformation.

For the students of the ninja school, the three basic ninjutsus that must be mastered are transformation, avatar, and clone.

Sasuke was the first to perform on stage.

His transformation technique was perfect, and he became like Iruka. From the outside, it was impossible to tell which one was the real Iruka.

Sasuke's performance made Iruka, who is a teacher, very satisfied, and the crazy screams of the girls also sounded in the class. It can be seen that Sasuke is very popular in the class.

Hizan and Kakashi were not surprised by this.

After all, the child who inherited the name of Uchiha, plus Kakashi's training in the past few years, for him, the three-body technique has already reached the point of perfection.

Even fire escape ninjutsu is also very handy.

The other party is contacting and controlling the second type of ninjutsu that changes the nature of Thunder Dun.

In the beginning, he has surpassed his peers.

In addition to the children from the ninja family, they may be able to compete with Sasuke in some aspects, but in general, Sasuke is definitely more dominant.

Next, the students in the class performed on stage one by one, showing off their transformation skills.

From the point of view of a ninja of Kakashi's level, this is just playing house.

At the age of four, he mastered the three-body technique.

In addition to the avatar technique that is still being used now, the transfiguration technique and the avatar technique are not necessarily used once a year.

But for the students, being able to master the transformation technique so well is considered a good grade.

Talented people are very rare after all.

Soon, Naruto appeared.

The azure blue is similar to the eyes of his father's fourth-generation Hokage Nami Feng Minato, and the color of his hair is exactly the same, that is, the six beards on his face, which kind of destroys his overall image.

Naruto came to the stage amid the laughter of his classmates, shouting "Look at me, transforming", his hands were sealed, and chakra erupted, which was quite astonishing.

It seems that he intends to surprise those who mock him.

Rizao and Kakashi are also very curious, whether the other's mastery of the three-body technique is still as terrible as it was in the past.

Then, a slender blond girl with two ponytails with healthy wheat-colored skin appeared naked in the crystal ball.

With the smoke lingering, the bumpy figure was looming, and he glared at his teacher Iruka.

"..."

The mouth under Kakashi's mask opened slightly, but he hesitated.

Although the transformation was not what Iruka asked for, the image of a beautiful girl with blond hair and two ponytails was so vividly displayed in front of people's eyes...

This kid is, in a way, an amazing talent.

"Really, Iruka still doesn't have enough concentration. She would be defeated by such a boring ninjutsu."

Looking into the crystal ball, Iruka, who saw the beautiful girl's body, had already collapsed to the ground with a collapsed face due to excessive blood loss, her whole body twitching. Ri Zhan couldn't help sighing, while holding a tissue to wipe the nosebleed from his nose.

Compared with a young man with little experience like Iruka, as Hokage, he is already used to Naruto's genius-like behavior full of whimsy.

Even if such a boring ninjutsu is strengthened ten times, as Hokage, he can still endure it with his own strong willpower.

"I don't think it's a matter of concentration enough..."

Kakashi wants to complain, but doesn't know where to start.

I can only say that I, the Minister of Anbu, is still too shallow in terms of knowledge.

This is not a unique skill that normal people can imagine.

"However, having said that, this child is really lonely. He wants to rely on this method to attract the attention of others."

Even across the screen, Kakashi could feel the other party's forced smile, trying to attract the attention of others and recognize his own existence.

But unfortunately, in the wrong way.

Sure enough, Iruka, who had recovered, scolded Naruto directly, and took him outside and punished him to make him reflect on his mistakes.

"This is the life of Renzhuli. Although they are members of the village, they are often excluded by others. The behavior of adults will affect the behavior of children."

Hiruzen sighed.

"What's the next step for Hokage-sama? Is Mizuki..."

"Wait and watch. Before the opponent makes a move, don't make a fool of yourself. If you don't find out the black hand behind the scenes, it doesn't make any sense to catch more pieces like Shuimu."

Sun Zhan's eyes sharpened.

"Yes."

Kakashi took the lead.

◎

In late March, the day before the graduation of the ninja school.

Not only do students need to seriously review the content of tomorrow's graduation exam, but the work of school teachers is also not easy.

There are not a lot of graduates in the sixth grade. According to the teachers' speculation, there should be more than 95% of the students who can successfully graduate from the school.

After that, according to the comprehensive ability of each graduate, they will be assigned to different Genin teams, and they will be handed over to the above people for review, and appropriate leading teachers will be arranged.

"Iruka, do you want to have dinner together later?"

Iruka raised his head, looked at the person who came, and refused with a smile: "I'm sorry, Mizuki, I promised Naruto to treat him to a meal of Yile Ramen tonight. Tomorrow, when the students graduate successfully, I will go to hold a celebration. Let's have a feast."

The visitor had a gentle and kind smile on his face, his face was handsome, and he was a few years older than Iruka.

"That's it~www.readwn.com~ There's no other way, Naruto's grades are really not very good, I think it's better for you to urge him to practice tonight, otherwise in the graduation exam tomorrow, he may However, if you don't graduate smoothly, Naruto will definitely be very disappointed."

Mizuki's face also showed a worried look about Naruto's performance.

"I see, Mizuki, thank you for caring about Naruto. Naruto will be very happy when he finds out."

"Where, this is what I should do as a teacher. Naruto lost his parents since he was a child, and was discriminated against by many people in the village, but as teachers, we should treat all students equally."

Iruka felt the same way about Mizuki's words.

"Then I won't bother you. Say hello to Naruto and me later, and see you tomorrow morning."

Mizuki nodded and said goodbye to Iruka.

The moment he turned around, the gentle smile on Mizuki's face disappeared instantly, feeling the weight of something in his arms, and a very cold smile appeared on his face.
