Escape From Konoha

"Come on, don't be lazy! This month's share must end before the end of the month!"

Inside a large building similar to a workshop in Mt. Miaogi, a large number of toads came in and out, giving Shiraishi the appearance of being busy or something.

And from the toads going in and out, Shiraishi saw that they were sweating like rain, and many of the toads showed tiredness on their faces, which made Shiraishi realize that the busyness of these toads was not easy.

This is also the reason why Shiraishi did not immediately withdraw from Mt. Miaomu when he investigated the general topography of Mt. Miaomu.

Under his hard work, he has almost recorded the topography of Miaomu Mountain, as well as the deployment of troops and other matters in his mind. After waiting for his return, he immediately convened a high-level meeting to discuss strategies.

However, in order to further understand the situation of Miaomu Mountain, after finishing the work, Shiraishi decided to stay temporarily to see if there is anything he missed in Miaomu Mountain.

This workshop is one of them.

Give Shiraishi a not simple feeling.

What the **** are these toads doing in and out of?

Seeing how busy they were, coupled with the strange waves coming from the workshop, made Shiraishi even more curious.

However, to be on the safe side, Shiraishi did not immediately sneak in to see what happened, but waited patiently outside. When these toads began to rest and relax their vigilance, they were ready to go in to see what happened, lest the group of toads notice anything. All right.

Time passed by little by little, from the afternoon to the evening, and then into the night, these toads were still happily working in the workshop.

Their enthusiasm for work, in Shiraishi's view, is more competent than many humans.

While waiting like this, it was not until ten o'clock in the evening that the toads in the workshop stopped their work and started to leave in twos and threes, returning to their residence.

Finally, a few human-sized toad workshops patrolled around the workshop, closing the gate of the workshop by the way.

Although their patrolling attitude seemed serious, Shiraishi could still see some laziness from their expressions.

Thinking about it, the work in the workshop has consumed their energy, and this is the core area of ​​Miaomu Mountain. Most people don’t say that they want to sneak in. It is very likely that they will be caught by the big toad of Iwasu the moment they enter Miaomu Mountain.

If it is for ulterior motives, maybe it will be swallowed by the big toad of Yanju directly and become the nutrients in its body.

Shiraishi didn't pay attention to the laziness on the faces of these toads, and acted on his own.

Surveying the terrain of Miaomu Mountain all day, even he felt a little tired.

After doing the things here, I will temporarily find a place to rest for a night, and continue to observe until tomorrow.

For example, Miaomushan's immortal art, he is still very curious.

From Jiraiya, the essence of Miaomu Mountain Immortal Art cannot be found at all. It needs to rely on two great immortals to perform immortal art. In essence, it is only a semi-finished product, and there is not much reference value.

But the Miaomushan headquarters is different, where the most original essence of Miaomushan Xianshu will be presented.

The stone of the mountain can attack jade, and Shiraishi feels that even the magic of toads can be used for reference.

With this in mind, Shiraishi instructed the shadow dancers to carefully move towards the door of the workshop along the shadows cast by the eaves of the workshop.

Then it penetrated into the workshop through the gap in the gate.

Perhaps it was because he felt that there was no need to set up a barrier in such a place, so Shiraishi infiltrated smoothly.

The space inside the workshop is very large, and the whole is in the shape of a sphere.

In the center of the workshop, at the bottom stood a platform surrounded by a large number of transparent stone tablets. The stone tablets were engraved with a dark green glowing incantation.

Surrounded by these steles, suspended in mid-air is a sphere similar to a 'cocoon'.

The volume of the sphere is about the size of a mobile standard two-story villa.

Through the transparent skin of the sphere, it can be seen that there are countless rays of light inside, moving irregularly like shooting stars.

Seeing this huge spherical object, Bai Shi's heart sank slightly.

The rays of light that move like meteors inside the sphere are extremely high concentrations of celestial chakra.

In terms of quantity, it is already comparable to a tailed beast.

Confining such a huge power in a container, Miaomushan's research on chakra technology is no trivial matter.

The stele and the sphere exude a splendid brilliance, illuminating the entire interior of the workshop.

Therefore, Shiraishi also saw the things on the surrounding tables.

There are a lot of tools that Shiraishi has never seen, and only a few utensils know the purpose, so Shiraishi doesn't know what toads do in such places during the day.

It wasn't until Shiraishi saw a piece of paper on the table, like the talisman paper produced by handicrafts, that he suddenly realized the work of the toads.

These talisman paper Baishi has seen before, and it is called the talisman of immortals.

However, it belongs to the imitation of the talisman of the immortal, and is called the false talisman of the immortal by the toad of Miaomu Mountain.

Even so, this kind of thing also has the powerful effect of healing wounds and clearing the abnormal state of the body.

Looking at the large number of pseudo-immortal talismans placed on the table, at least twenty, Shiraishi fell into contemplation.

Although it is not a finished product, it is probably only the last few procedures away from the finished product.

Is the large amount of fairy chakra gathered here to produce this kind of spell for flowing water? Shiraishi's mind became active.

So, in other words, why did Miaomushan make a lot of pseudo-immortal talismans at such a time?

In the end, are these pseudo-immortal talismans consumed internally, or are they traded with external forces?

If it is dealing with external forces, then, which party is Miaomushan trading with?

In fact, these answers can be determined with a little guesswork.

Because of the inexplicable prophecy, he was inexplicably targeted by Miaomushan, and he was also accused of causing trouble in the ninja world by Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas.

Even Jirai is still in other countries, and he is constantly promoting his 'world-destroying' remarks.

Just like Jiraiya used to preach in other countries that his disciple Namikaze Minato was the "Son of Prophecy" who brought peace.

It's just that in these rumors, he is the villain on the negative side, while his disciples are the heroes on the front.

Then Namikaze Minato died.

He is still alive and well.

"..."

Shiraishi didn't have to think about it, he knew that Miaomushan's mass production of these pseudo-immortal talismans was probably to deal with him.

Because you are the cause of evil?

Because you are the culprit that destroyed the ninja world?

This is a fact presented in the eyes of the big toad fairy?

So, is it equivalent to the fact that Jiraiya saw?

Possible future crimes will also be defined as iron-clad criminal facts?

It's a bit hilarious, but Shiraishi never thinks what he's doing is evil.

He has a human sensibility, but he is also rational.

The premise of his war must be to stabilize the order of the world and to uncover the unreasonable things in human society that cannot benefit workers. Therefore, the 'justice' of this article must be included.

It is immature to judge right from wrong by war.

The correctness of war lies in what kind of positive thinking is left to future generations that is beneficial to the collective human beings.

This was probably the fundamental reason why he and a ninja like Jiraiya couldn't communicate.

Looking at the fake immortal amulet on the table, Shiraishi did not touch it, but let the shadow dancer control the shadow, and exited the workshop where the immortal amulet was made according to the original path.

The ceremony of succeeding the five generations of Hokage was more tiring than Tsunade imagined.

Under the gaze of countless civilians and ninjas in Konoha, he read out the declaration of taking office as Hokage, and cooperated with advisors to personally summon envoys from various countries to accept their congratulations.

Although the messengers of various countries have brought congratulatory gifts, Tsunade, who does not pay attention to material enjoyment, knows these valuable things, so he just let Mute accept it.

Fortunately, there were no surprises in the process of this Hokage succession ceremony, and most of the Shangnin were also satisfied with her succession to Hokage, so the two advisors had concerns. , finally passed safely.

The Hokage succession ceremony and the reception of messengers from various countries started in the afternoon and ended in the evening.

And at night, Tsunade just lay down on the desk in Hokage's office, the whole person seemed to have lost his soul.

There are piles of paper on the desk, all important documents full of words.

On the double-sized table next to the desk, it is also facing stacks of papers or sealed portfolios.

Not only that, under the command of Mute, Anbu, holding a thick document, kept coming in from the outside, almost filling the entire Hokage office.

Seeing this, Tsunade's eyes lost all the highlights, revealing a gloomy light that wanted to be instantly disillusioned.

"How come there are so many pending files?"

Tsunade couldn't help but ask this question.

Her time is limited, and she has more important things to do, but she doesn't want to be in a hard battle with various documents for the next half month, and there is still no end to the battle.

"There is no way to do such a thing. After all, the documents here have been put on hold for a long time. With so many things happening in the village recently, there are naturally so many documents that have been hoarded. Tsunade-sama, please work a little harder. Bar."

Mute is also helpless.

"Hey, what a joke, this is not a workload that can be solved with a little hard work!"

Tsunade pointed to as many documents as the hills, his brows furrowed.

"Nevertheless, you are complaining here when you became Hokage, is this really okay, Tsunade-sama?"

Hearing what Mute said, Tsunade knew that it was a bit out of place to complain at this time.

But this workload, if you really deal with it, will feel exhausted.

"Then use the shadow clone to share the pressure."

Tsunade said so.

"If you want to use that method, you need to pay attention to the timing."

Mute thought for a while, and answered like this.

Using shadow clones to share work pressure is indeed a feasible way. But after the shadow clone is eliminated, the pressure accumulated on the shadow clone will also be directly fed back to the main body. If the accumulated fatigue is too much, Mute is a little worried about whether Tsunade's body can support it.

"Don't worry, I will control the number and time of the shadow avatar's work, so there will be no problem."

In order to finish the work as soon as possible, this was the only way Tsunade could think of.

"In that case, I will be optimistic about you, Tsunade-sama. By the way, there are still some letters here that need to be read by you, Tsunade-sama."

Mute thought of something, took out a stack of sealed letters from the clothes in his arms, and put it respectfully in front of Tsunade.

Tsunade took these letters with a look of doubt: "Strange, is it a letter to me?"

"Yes."

With Mute's affirmation, Tsunade opened the letters and took out the paper inside... After that, Tsunade's face immediately showed embarrassment.

These papers are not letters of condolences, but IOUs signed by her borrowing money in the past.

In other words, the creditor came to collect the debt.

Because in the past, she has been traveling in various countries and wandering around without a fixed place, making it difficult for creditors to capture her traces.

Now that she has returned to Konoha to serve as the fifth Hokage, there is no way to make creditors suffer from how to collect debts like in the past. Therefore, after learning of Tsunade's succession as the fifth Hokage, these creditors put together and plan to give her a 'surprise'.

Seeing the dense numbers on the IOU, Tsunade's head suddenly became big.

"As Hokage, if you have a reputation for not paying your bills, it's probably not a good idea."

Silent coughed and said to Tsunade.

I hope that the other party will not evade the ticket like in the past, otherwise it will lose Konoha's face, although it is shameful enough to send the IOU to Konoha.

Therefore, it is the right way to replace the arrears as soon as possible before things become too big.

"Yeah... These guys clearly said they would delay the time. Forget it, mute, find a time, invite them to the village, and pay them back the arrears as soon as possible."

Tsunade rubbed his brows and said.

"It would have been better to have done this earlier, but now there are more troubles."

"It's long-winded! I just want to pay it off all at once. It's a waste of time to pay millions every time."

"..."

Mute sighed, but silently wrote down this matter.

Just then, there was a knock on the office door.

"Come in."

"I'm sorry, Hokage-sama."

After getting permission, Lu Jiu walked in from outside, stopped in front of Tsunade's desk, and gave Tsunade a slight salute.

Unlike Tsunade who had just entered the working state, Lu Jiu had very serious dark circles on his eyes.

The muscles of the face are also very loose, and the whole body exudes a decadent and decadent atmosphere.

Even the gesture of salute and the tone of speech gave people a feeling of drowsiness.

"Um... Lukisa, are you alright?"

Seeing Lu Jiu's state, Tsunade and Mute were worried about whether he could stand still now.

This state still has to work, there will definitely be problems.

"Ah, sorry to make you laugh. But it's okay, my body should be able to hold on for a while."

Lu Jiu scratched his head, and forced a smile from his flabby face.

"It's all right. You should go back and rest quickly. You don't have to come to work tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Your work will be replaced by Mute for the time being."

Tsunade frowned at Lu Jiu's reluctant appearance, and asked him to return home to rest for two days before coming back to work.

"Thank you so much. However, today's work still needs to be completed, and some things need to be confirmed."

"Things? Confirmed?"

Tsunade was a little puzzled by what Shikaku said.

"Well, it's actually the issue of Hatake Kakashi and Uchiha Sasuke, and the funeral of the three generations of adults. Regarding these matters, those who know the insider have been silenced for the time being, and countries don't seem to know much about it. But it's not going to go on like this. There is no way to hide these things forever. Therefore, I think it is more appropriate to disclose them as soon as possible.”

Because of the loss of Hokage in the village before, even if the high-level people know about some things, the middle and low-level personnel may not know these things.

The purpose is to prevent the impact of things from expanding and causing unnecessary confusion.

But now Tsunade has returned and has successfully taken the position of the fifth Hokage. In this way, even if these things are made public, it will cause a storm, and it is basically not a big problem.

"These things? How did you negotiate before?"

Tsunade paused and asked Shikahisa.

Kakashi said without hesitation: "About Hatake Kakashi and Uchiha Sasuke, the behavior of the two is undoubtedly betraying the village. Therefore, it is the best way to treat them as treason and tolerance. As for those who defected. The reason is that you can guide Orochimaru, try to avoid the fault of the Danzo elders, transfer the contradictions within the village, and stabilize the resistance of the martial arts faction."

"It's really a simple and crude method."

"There is no way. The people of the martial arts faction are a little restless in the village because of the failure of Danzo elders. If they take the extreme road, it will make things more troublesome. Before things turn into that result, they must be appeased. their mood."

There was a serious look on Lu Jiu's tired face, obviously not joking.

The Konoha martial arts personnel at this stage are psychologically sensitive and fragile. If they are stimulated again, they may explode inside Konoha.

"Don't worry, although I hate that person Danzo, I can still figure out the issue of position. Let's do it like this, Hatake Kakashi will be classified as an S-class traitor, as for Sasuke Uchiha..."

Tsunade was in trouble.

Compared with Kakashi, she is not particularly familiar with Sasuke Uchiha.

"Make him an A-level traitor, what do you think, Lord Hokage?"

"What's the reason?"

"He knew the truth about the Uchiha clan's genocide, but he still chose to leave the village, so sooner or later he will take revenge on the village... Even, I am more inclined to designate him as an S-level traitor, in terms of potential threats."

There was a sharp light in Lu Jiu's eyes, and the tiredness on his face also dissipated a lot.

"Hey... Sarutobi-sensei, it really left me a mess."

Tsunade tapped his forehead with his fingers and took a deep breath.

She also knew a little about the genocide of the Uchiha clan through the information that Lu Jiu had submitted before.

It is for this reason that he is ashamed and full of pity for what happened to Sasuke Uchiha, but there is no hostility and disgust.

It was Konoha who owed the child too much, not the child who owed Konoha.

If that child really wants to take revenge on Konoha in the future, what position should he take to accuse him?

It is as if he is despising his own village. Tsunade smiled bitterly.

"It's not just you, Hokage-sama, who is embarrassed, even me, the squad leader, is very ashamed... The Uchiha family shouldn't end in such a way. However, since things have happened, then Uchiha Sasuke is the enemy, although it is regrettable, But it's our Konoha ninja's responsibility to destroy him."

Kakashi said in a cruel tone.

"Of course I know about this kind of thing... But, I think you also know, the village has no spare energy to deal with Sasuke Uchiha now. And he and Kakashi, suspected to have taken refuge with Orochimaru, got involved with that guy, but it's nothing. Good thing."

The worry on Tsunade's face was undisguised.

"About this matter, perhaps we can use the power of the country of ghosts to deal with Orochimaru."

Kakashi pondered the answer for a while.

"The country of ghosts? You mean..."

Tsunade suddenly understood.

"Well, this is the best way at present. It can not only solve Orochimaru and Uchiha Sasuke, but also divert the attention of the country of ghosts... But the operation is very difficult and may not be successful."

"Let's talk about this at a later time. We're not in a hurry for the time being. The most important thing now is to restore all functions of the village as soon as possible, as well as the funeral of Mr. Sarutobi."

"That's right, then, can the funeral be held in two days?"

"Okay, let the two consultants make arrangements. Your next task is to rest at home. After Mr. Sarutobi's funeral, you will return to work."

Tsunade considered Shikajiu's condition is not good, let him rest at home for two days, and return to work after the teacher's funeral.

"Yes. If there is nothing else to do, I will leave first, Hokage-sama."

"Wait, don't go yet, there is one more question, I would like to hear your advice."

Tsunade stopped Shikahisa.

"Lord Hokage, please speak."

"Shimura Danzo has fallen, do you have a good recommendation for a vacant elder position in the senior management?"

Tsunade asked, staring into Shikahisa's eyes.

"Do you have any recommendations for Hokage-sama?"

Lu Jiu didn't answer the question.

Tsunade thought for a while and answered Lu Jiu's question: "I hope that the Qiudao family of the Qiudao family can take over this position."

Lu Jiu was not surprised, a position like a high-level elder is not for everyone.

Contemporaneous with the two advisors, and also a second-generation Hokage disciple, he has the qualifications to become an elder in terms of identity, background, ability and strength.

"Although I am also inclined to this suggestion, I have already asked, and the other party has no intention of becoming an elder~www.readwn.com~ and prefers to be an idle old man in the village."

Kakashi shook his head.

"Is that so? Then, is there anyone else in the village who can hold this position?"

Tsunade continued to ask after being disappointed for a while.

"In terms of prestige and ability, it can only be selected from the patriarchs of the ninja clan. Among all the ninja clan chiefs in Konoha... I prefer the one from Hinata."

"Sunshine Sunfoot?"

Tsunade frowned and tapped the table with his fingers, as if he was seriously considering this proposal.

Lukisa silently bent down at Tsunade, then turned and left the office, letting Tsunade think about this issue himself.

(PS: It seems that in Chapter 541, through Raikage, it was mentioned that Jirai also preached that Minato was the savior of the world. Raikage, who was far away in the land of thunder, also heard about it... I can't remember it, but this is the case. Remarks, I remember being rejected by Raikage.)
