Time flies by in a steady rhythm, and one year passes quickly.
This year, there were no major events in the ninja world.
Of course, this is just an exaggeration.
After all, a series of problems such as local conflicts, terrorist organizations, and refugees from the Country of Rain are all real.
But the point is, these problems have existed for decades and have become the norm.
Even in the eyes of many people, it is not even a conversation piece after dinner. There is no Holy Mother of the White Zuo in the ninja world. Who cares about these trivial matters
Therefore, compared to the sudden death of the Uchiha clan leader a year ago and the bizarre changes in Kirigakure Village, the thirty-five years of Konoha were indeed as dull as boiled water, and could be evaluated as "no big deal".
This general trend of "peace and development" reminds many people of the more than ten-year gap after the end of the First Ninja War.
Is it another golden decade
No one knows...but most ninjas hope that the war can be delayed a little longer.
Konoha thirty-sixth year, May.
The weather has gradually warmed up, and the dazzling sunshine is shining on the village, making people lazy and not wanting to move, but the boundary class is indeed in full swing.
The huge room was covered with dense sealing patterns, and a dozen ninjas who were good at barrier techniques divided their labors and maintained their respective areas.
Expanding the entire Konoha barrier on the original basis cannot be accomplished overnight.
In fact, this process has lasted for nearly half a year, and the preparations can be traced back to three years ago.
From this point, it can be seen that Uzumaki Mito's accomplishments in sealing techniques cannot be compared to Kushina's or even the entire barrier class.
Fortunately, Chen and Minato also joined the mission.
Needless to say, Minato, the first thing a ninja can learn from Flying Thunder God is to be proficient in the sealing technique.
Although Minato is still young now, his level of sealing skills far exceeds that of most Konoha ninjas.
This is probably genius.
As for Chen Na, not to mention, his talent in sealing arts was originally very low, but after systematic transformation, plus he has been immersed in illusions for ten years, what he does every day is to repeatedly study the previous sealing arts.
His current level is naturally far behind Mito, but there are few people in Konoha who are stronger than him.
"Buzz~"
As everyone quickly formed seals, countless lines in the room suddenly glowed with light.
At this moment, the barrier that had always been hidden in the originally peaceful Konoha Hidden Village was revealed.
Many ninjas looked at the sky in confusion. They didn't know what it was, but they felt a faint sense of oppression from the barrier.
"Everyone, let's get started."
Chen said to the dozens of members of the barrier class in front of him that it would take at least two months or even longer to complete this work on his own.
Moreover, his energy is limited, so it is difficult to ensure that there are no mistakes in the process.
Kushina, Minato and all the members of the sealing class nodded.
…
For the next half month, Konoha was shrouded in barrier.
"Hoo~"
After finally completing it, Chen couldn't help but let out a breath of turbidity.
"thanks everyone."
"The person who is working the hardest is you, Mr. Chen, we are just helping you."
A member of the barrier class said, with a bit of reverence for Chen in his expression.
At the beginning, he was a little unimpressed with Chen. Although the boy was a hero of Konoha, his reputation was based on his strength and military exploits, and in terms of sealing techniques, you were just a novice.
But he didn't expect to be slapped in the face soon, because he gradually discovered that Chen's attainments in sealing techniques had reached a level beyond his reach.
What a monster this is.
Since then, he has become a fanatical fan of teenagers.
Now that the work was done, Tatsumi and Minato stood up to say goodbye and headed outside.
"Hey, wait for me."
When the two walked out of the door, Kushina's voice came from behind.
Chen stopped, looked at the little fox suspiciously, and asked, "Isn't it time to get off work yet? Why did you come out?"
Kushina stuck out her tongue and said with a smile: "After working for so long, the captain gave me half a day off."
"Your captain is such a good person."
"Yes, Captain, she usually takes good care of me." Kushina stretched out her hand to block the sun and suggested: "It's still early, let's go have a smoothie
I know there is a new store nearby that tastes very good. "
"Okay." Chen looked at Little Taiyang and asked, "Should we go together with Minato?"
"Okay." Minato agreed immediately.
Due to the maintenance of the barrier, he has very little chakra left. There is no point in training now. It is better to take a good rest.
"Wouldn't it be nice to be able to discuss ninjutsu with Chen."
The smoothie shop was not too far away, but when the three of them arrived, they found that there were already a lot of people here.
"Business is so good."
"Yes." Kushina smiled proudly, "It means the taste is good, and the place I recommended can be worse... Hey, who is that?"
Following Kushina's line of sight, Chen and Minato turned to look.
"That...is the rope tree, right?"
"It's him, the wretched little yellow guy. I can recognize him without even looking at his face." Chen said decisively.
Minato also agreed.
Kushina shouted: "Naoki, what are you doing?"
Hearing someone suddenly calling him, Rooshu was so frightened that he almost fell off the wall.
He turned around and glared, and found that it was Kushina calling him, so he jumped off the wall, ran over, and asked: "Why are you here, aren't you building a barrier?"
"It's been fixed, but it's you." Kushina circled the rope tree twice and asked suspiciously, "Why are you squatting on the wall outside the bathtub when you have nothing to do?"
"Isn't it... Could it be that Naoki, you are the infamous underwear thief in Konoha a while ago?!"
"I'm not… "
"That means you're learning how to voyeur from that weird uncle Jiraiya, right?"
Kushina squinted her eyes, showing the tendency to evolve into a blood red pepper.
Although Kushina is Naoki's younger sister, the title of Demon King was inherited from Tsunade-hime. How could Naoki be able to resist.
He could only stammer and defend: "I didn't..."
"What a pale and feeble excuse. I didn't expect that Naoki, the future leader of the Senju clan, would actually be a notorious voyeur and underwear thief in Konoha."
Kushina lowered her head in disappointment, but at the same time she looked up at the rope tree slyly, looking like a little devil.
"If Nonoyu knew, I wonder if something interesting would happen?"
“…”
"Alas..." Naoshu sighed, "I was neither peeping nor stealing underwear.
Whatever you want me to do, you can tell me honestly.
But if you do this with me, all I can say is..."
"I can only say...?" Kushina looked at Naoki, who became extremely serious for a moment, and swallowed nervously.
"Kushina, you will be my sister from now on! Spare your life! Please don't tell Nonou! We are all relatives, why do we have to hurt each other?!"
“…”
What a shame, Tatsumi and Minato both covered their faces.
There will never be any Konoha Three Elites again... only Konoha Geminis.
As for Rope Tree... he was kicked out of the live broadcast room because of his fierce words.
At this time, Kushina suddenly smiled.
"It's okay if I don't say anything. I'll go queue up and buy three... no... six smoothies and come back.
We'll wait for you in the shade. "
“…”
