The red and blue lights on the ring shone together, and bursts of explosions sounded like continuous firecrackers that reached the ears of the audience.
The battle has now reached its climax. Both sides have unleashed all their strength and are using a variety of tactics.
The venue had become dilapidated at this time, with debris and dust piled up everywhere.
In the end, both sides put all their strength into the final blow.
boom!
A huge explosion sounded, and a shining white light covered the ring. The powerful impact caused cracks to appear on the ground, and the thick smoke and dust that was stirred up obscured the figures of the two men.
"Who will win?"
This is the issue that the audience is most concerned about.
Who will be better and win the final victory in the Chunin Exam
Will it be the raging waves that put out the flames, or will it be the intense flames that evaporate all the water
At this moment, because of his previous vocal competition with Naruto, Zuozhu no longer had the energy to cheer for his brother. He could only open his eyes wide and stare at the ring nervously, as if he wanted to see through the thick fog and see the scene inside clearly.
But at this time, Zuo Zhu did not have a high-level Sharingan, so he naturally could not do such a thing. He could only wait for the thick fog to dissipate by itself.
The fog gradually dissipated, and two young figures were still standing.
At this moment, both of them looked extremely miserable. The short-sleeved shirts they were wearing were tattered and covered with sharp scratches, and their exposed skin was covered with sweat and grayish-yellow dust.
The two men faced each other, breathing in the air deeply, as if they had exhausted all their strength. They couldn't even straighten their backs. They were bent over, holding a weapon in one hand, and the other hand hung limply.
Just when everyone was amazed at the resilience of the two and thought that they would continue to fight, they fell down at the same time.
Kakashi tried to wake them up, but no one responded.
At this time, Nagase jumped down from the top floor, reached the ring, and announced directly: "This battle is a draw, both of you are tied for first place!"
After announcing the result, Nagaze grabbed one with each hand and left the ring with both of them.
Seeing that Nagase had done the work for him, Kakashi scratched his head and announced the end of the Chunin Exams before leaving the arena and heading towards the audience, where Karin and Yurika were also present today.
After simply treating the two with medical ninjutsu, Nagase handed them over to the medical ninjas who were on standby at the Chunin Exam venue and asked them to send them to Konoha Hospital.
Itachi and Kabuto had fought really hard this time and were both exhausted, so they needed a good rest.
Yongze didn't expect that his efforts to add fuel to the fire would be so effective.
But if you think about it carefully, maybe the two of them also want to take this opportunity to see how far the other party can go if they try their best.
Nagase returned to the top level and had a brief business exchange with the Tsuchikage and others, and then confirmed the matters concerning the Five Kage Summit.
"The Five Kage Summit will begin in three days. The location is below the Hokage Rock in Konoha."
There is a reason why they chose to hold the meeting below the Hokage Rock. It was to be held under the watchful eyes of the predecessors.
This is the result of discussions at the high-level meeting.
Relying on the ninja's powerful infrastructure capabilities, it was a simple matter to select a location and build a conference room. It was built quickly, but the interior decoration was a little more troublesome.
After finalizing some matters regarding the Five Kage Summit, Ōnoki, Rasa and the others returned to their respective residences.
Shicang wanted to leave, but when he thought about the fact that he was still a prisoner and there was a seal in his body, he just sat obediently in his seat and waited for Nagase to speak.
After saying goodbye to Minato, Nagase looked at the motionless Shikura, and then he remembered that the way Shikura came to Konoha was different from others.
"Do you want to go back to your original place, or should I arrange a new place for you?" Yongze said, touching his chin.
"The original place, do you mean the iron bed in the basement?"
"Yes." Yongze nodded in affirmation.
Shikura's body was shaking with anger. He was the Fourth Mizukage, yet he was asked to live in such a place like a prisoner. Didn't he have any dignity at all
"Please help me arrange a new residence." Shicang said gritting his teeth.
I feel angry inside, but I still have to use honorifics. What a torture.
"Come to think of it, it seems that Kirigakure has also sent people over, and they're about to arrive in Konoha. We might as well arrange a hotel for you to stay together." Nagase thought of things on the Kirigakure side.
Before that, he asked Shisui to bring Shizukura back to Konoha and also pass some information to Kirigakure.
As for Kirigakure, even though they didn't believe that the shadow of their village was controlled, after searching, they found that their own shadow was indeed missing, and then they connected it with the previous strange behavior.
No matter how absurd the reality is, these facts are right before their eyes and they have no choice but to believe them.
The Kage of their own family had already been sent to the Five Kage Summit, and the Hidden Mist Village had no good solution. After discussing it, the top leaders finally sent a team of Hidden Mist Village to Konoha.
On the one hand, they discussed the issue of the attack on the Konoha team, and then there was the Five Kage talks and bringing Shikura back.
If Shikura was allowed to be imprisoned in Konoha forever, then Kirigakure would have no place to stay. The ninja world has never seen such a Kage being imprisoned in an enemy ninja village.
Moreover, Shikura is very important to Kirigakure. Kirigakure is already weak now. Shikura is a strong man himself and also has the status of a jinchūriki. He is an indispensable fighting force for Kirigakure.
"That's the best." Shikura breathed a sigh of relief.
Although now he feels a bit embarrassed to meet the ninjas from his own village, being controlled by others and committing evil deeds.
But after all, they are ninjas from the Hidden Mist Village, their own people. Shikura believes that no one in the Hidden Mist Village would dare to offend his authority.
Nagase wandered around Konoha, chose a remote hotel, and paid for it to stay there for a week.
"Then you can live here while you are in Konoha." Nagase said and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute." Shikura called out to Nagase.
"What's the matter?" Yongze asked.
Shikura's face darkened, and he felt that Nagase was playing dumb. He had no choice but to speak directly:
"Seal, the seal that seals my chakra. After all, I am also a Kage of the Hidden Mist Village, one of the five great ninja villages, together with Konoha. Since we are going to have a Five Kage Summit, at least remove the seal on me as one of the Five Kage."
"Sorry, that's not possible." Nagase refused directly.
"Why!" Shikura was a little confused. Why were the Raikage and Tsuchikage and the others fine, but he had to be sealed.
"After all, you have been controlled by someone before. Who knows if that person has left any tricks on you. For the safety of Konoha, I have to let you down a little. When you are about to leave Konoha, I will ask someone to help you remove the seal." Nagase explained.
This is a lie.
The person who controlled Sikade was Obito, and now Obito has turned over a new leaf. Even if he really has a backup plan, Konoha will not suffer.
The real answer is that Nagase was too lazy to untie Shicang and wanted to wait until the last minute to untie him.
Nagase has already mentioned the safety of Konoha, what can Shikura do? This is not Kirigakure, and his words do not count.
"Okay then." Shicang forced a smile on his fair and tender baby face and walked into the hotel dejectedly like a walking corpse who had lost his soul.
If it is an animation, the background of the lost position must be grayish white.
After arranging the green-haired pseudo-shota, Nagase walked towards the Konoha Hospital.
"Nagaze Fuzuo."
"Consultant Nagase..."
In the hospital, all the medical ninjas who saw Nagase greeted him.
When he heard someone call him consultant, Nagase remembered that he was also a consultant in the medical department, but he hadn't been there because he had been very busy recently.
'Unconsciously, I have done a lot of things and have taken on many positions...' Nagase thought to himself.
Now he is the assistant to the Hokage of Konoha, and is also the captain of the training team, consultant of the medical department, deputy director of the education department, and monitor of the special warfare class.
At the beginning, he wanted to change the tragedy of Kushina and Minato, but also for his own safety. He was bound to Konoha and could not let Konoha be destroyed.
Now, the night of the Nine-Tails has long passed peacefully, and the Cloud Village that wanted to cause trouble has been defeated. This has shocked the ninja world, and other major countries dare not act rashly.
Now that the second Five Kage Summit is about to be held, the ninja world will soon return to the peace of the Hashirama era.
But at this time, Nagase felt that he was still far away from his goal of retirement.
Maybe it was paranoia or fear of insufficient firepower, Nagasawa So felt that his current strength was still a little lacking. Even if his strength surpassed Kaguya in the future and he truly became the strongest in the ninja world, he would still be far from his goal.
Because Kaguya also has an enemy she fears, the Otsutsuki clan who search the starry sky for planets to plant sacred trees.
Before Nagase traveled through time, he heard that Naruto had a sequel and had originally planned to watch it, but because the reviews were so bad, he didn't.
Now that I think about it, it would be great if I had read it, maybe it would contain some information about the Otsutsuki clan.
ps: I can’t write Boruto: Naruto Next Generations, but I might adopt some of its settings.
While responding to the nurses and doctors who greeted him, Nagase began to think about the future.
I have to say, sometimes, the unknown is a kind of happiness. If he didn't know so much, he would probably start enjoying life after resolving the Nine-Tails incident instead of working so hard to develop Konoha.
Nagase asked some doctors and found out which ward the two were in. He thanked the person who asked for directions and found the ward. The two were arranged in the same ward.
Nagase walked in. Itachi and Kabuto had already woken up, and their tattered clothes had been replaced with clothes specially provided by the hospital for patients.
"How are you feeling? If you feel unwell, I'll ask a doctor to come and check you out." Yongze asked.
"No, it's fine." Itachi replied.
"No need, it's just that I consumed too much physical chakra, there is no serious injury." Kabuto refused.
Yongze put down some of the fruits he bought, smiled gently and said:
“This time the situation is special, even if it’s a tie, you’re both in first place.
You guys are doing great. If you have anything you want, you can tell me and I will try my best to satisfy you."
Yongze did not forget what he promised the two. If they performed well, he could fulfill one of their wishes.
However, the two were obviously still thinking about the battle not long ago, and they both shook their heads to indicate that they needed to think about it carefully.
Later, Nagase tested the two of them and found out that Itachi and Kabuto had not discovered that he was adding fuel to the fire. So Nagase left with satisfaction. It turned out that Itachi and Kabuto were very reliable and would not easily tell others what he said.
After leaving the ward, when Yongze was about to leave the hospital, he unexpectedly ran into a golden figure.
Yongze continued to walk forward with a calm expression.
Tsunade was discussing the internship of the special students in the hospital with the doctor next to her, but she accidentally saw a familiar figure and said directly:
"Counselor Yongze, you are such a busy man, how could you show up at the hospital?"
Nagase, who wanted to get away with it, was discovered and could only turn around and answer helplessly: "After all, Itachi is my disciple, and Kabuto is my brother. They are injured and hospitalized, so it's not strange for me to visit them."
To be honest, he really didn't want to run into Tsunade in the hospital.
In today's Konoha, Tsunade is probably one of the few people who dares to be sarcastic to him in front of him.
But Nagase couldn't say anything. After all, it was he who brought Tsunade back by force, and it was a fact that she didn't go to the medical department.
However, after Nagase and Tsunade became familiar with each other, he also mastered a set of methods to deal with Tsunade.
"Lady Tsunade is right." Nagase said calmly.
That's right, his way of dealing with Tsunade is to play badly. No matter what Tsunade says, he will say "yes, yes, yes". In this way, Tsunade will get bored and leave.
"Tsk, here you go again, so boring." Tsunade saw Nagase's behavior and knew what he was thinking.
"Lady Tsunade is right, I am indeed a boring person." Nagase's expression remained unchanged.
"Forget it, are you free this afternoon? Let's go drink with Jiraiya and Orochimaru." Knowing that Nagase would only lose interest in Tsunade next, he invited.
"It's really strange that Orochimaru agreed to drink with you guys." In Nagase's mind, Orochimaru was the kind of person who required himself to remain calm at all times. It was really strange that such a person would gather together to drink.
"Maybe Jiraiya is annoyed by her?" Tsunade said uncertainly. She was also a little surprised by Orochimaru's agreement.
She felt that Jiraiya would keep pestering Orochimaru, saying that they must have a good drink together since they hadn't met for a long time, and Orochimaru thought that agreeing might save time and effort than being pestered again, so he agreed.
"But this is a gathering of the three ninjas, is it okay for me to go?" Nagase asked.
"Why are you so nosy? Just say whether you're going or not." Tsunade crossed her arms across her chest, making her already conspicuous size even more conspicuous, and said with an unhappy look on her face.
"I'll go." Yongze thought about it, confirmed that there was nothing important in the afternoon, and nodded in agreement.
