If there was an Internet in the ninja world, the five major rogue nations would have become a quarrel by now.
As the instigator, the Third Mizukage will immediately update his Facebook to declare responsibility for this terrorist attack.
The third Tsuchikage, an extreme "wood-hating" element, adheres to the concept of "whoever trolls Konoha is my brother", so he retweeted and liked it without hesitation.
The Third Kazekage also wanted to like it, but due to Konoha's power, he only dared to secretly apply for a dozen trumpets to lead the rhythm and act as a "tap water".
The "black and tough" Third Raikage despised this kind of behavior, but he did not openly diss other villages, but chose to sit on the sidelines.
Looking at all the living beings, the Third Hokage shook his head slightly with disdain on his face. While smoking his pipe, he leisurely typed four big characters in the Qiuqiu space.
Outcry!
It is conceivable that regardless of whether there is Internet or not, the reaction of the five major countries to this incident is basically the same.
However, Chen didn't care about these, he was more concerned about the purpose of the Third Mizukage.
If it was really just for the Kyuubi, it would be impossible to send only a few people, and at least seven people would have to start with the Ninja Sword.
In the same way, if Madara came here for Chen, it would be even more impossible to send such a few people. Not to mention hundreds of ninjas, but they must at least form a siege and stage a Uzumaki Country version of the "Battle of Kannabi Bridge", right
"I have a headache." Chen sighed, "Am I overthinking?"
"What's wrong?" Kushina asked feebly, having used the Kyuubi chakra excessively.
"It's nothing, I just don't know how Lao Muzi is doing now." The young man smiled at the little fox and slowly walked towards the beach with her on his back.
Looking at the endless sea, the two sighed at the same time.
Do you want to rely on Carat to walk back to Konoha
At this moment, a human head suddenly appeared in the calm sea.
“…”
I originally thought that Lao Muzi had been martyred on the ship, but I didn't expect that he was still alive.
Putting down Kushina, Chen walked over, lifted the old man out of the sea, and brought him back to the beach.
"These bitches are raising fog ninjas! If I hadn't jumped quickly, I would have died in the boat." As soon as he landed on the shore, Lao Muzi began to jump on his feet and curse at his mother. He was very angry and didn't look like he was injured.
Seeing that he was fine, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"Unfortunately, the boat has sunk into the sea." At this point, Lao Muzi was also a little sad.
Although the ship is not his, he has lived on the sea all his life and has an unspeakable emotion for every ship.
"How about we use those fog ninjas?" Chen asked.
"For the Mist Ninja?"
"Yes, the Kingdom of Water is far away from the Kingdom of Whirlpool, and it is impossible for a Mist Ninja to walk across the water."
Lao Muzi thought for a moment and nodded: "I remembered that near the island of the Whirlpool Kingdom, there is a small island that can only stand on. When the Mist Ninja used ninjutsu, the direction also corresponded to that side.
If nothing else, the ship should be there. "
"Okay, I'll go take a look."
After determining the specific location from Lao Muzi, Chen walked along the sea towards the isolated island near the Kingdom of Whirlpool.
It just so happened that Kushina was injured and needed to rest for a while, so let her stay here.
It turned out that Lao Muzi's guess was not wrong. There was indeed a ship parked beside a long and narrow island.
"Hey, is this a sailboat?"
They came on a gasoline-powered boat, so Kushina was still very curious about the large sailboat staying on the coast.
"The wind direction is right. With the help of the sea breeze, we can probably get back to the Country of Fire in five days." Lao Muzi said after checking the entire ship.
"Okay, let's sail the boat."
… …
Standing on the deck, looking at the Kingdom of Whirlpool gradually getting further away, Kushina remained silent.
Chen handed her the scented tea in his hand and asked, "Can't bear to part with it?"
Kushina shook her head.
"I left the Kingdom of Whirlpool when I was very young. Over the years, I have completely forgotten about this place. I have always wanted to come here, but in fact it was just an obsession. Now that I am back, the obsession has disappeared.
Thinking about it carefully, I still prefer Konoha, where you, Mikoto, sister Tsunade, Minato, Noju... all my friends are there, Konoha is my home. "
Chen patted her shoulder and consoled her: "Before Grandma Mito passed away, you were the most worried about her. She hoped that you could treat Konoha as a home, not a place to settle down.
If she knows what you are thinking now, she will be very happy. "
When Mito was mentioned, Kushina burst into tears.
"I know... I have always known it. Just because of the jinchuriki, I have always been fond of Konoha in my heart... But now it's okay. I listened to you and Grandma Mito, and we get along very well with the Nine Lamas... I no longer I care…”
Kushina wiped her tears and asked: "Chen, there is something I have been holding in my heart for a long time. Can I ask?"
"What's up?"
"The first time you taught me ninjutsu, the two of us were walking back on the road, it was evening.
Looking at your back, I don't know why, but I can clearly feel that you, like me, are obviously in Konoha, looking up at the same sky, but looking at different places.
Later, the Second Ninja War broke out, and you went to the battlefield and slowly became a hero. As time went by, the sense of alienation in you gradually disappeared.
I don't understand. I am like this because I am far away from my hometown. But Chen, you were born in Konoha, why are you like this? "
Looking at Kushina's eyes in silence for a long time, Chencai shook his head: "I have some... secrets that cannot be told."
"Can't anyone tell me?"
"If you tell others something without a backstory and no one will believe it, it's better not to say it."
"I trust you."
"But I haven't figured out what to say yet."
Kushina pursed her lips and suddenly raised her head: "Does Mikoto know?"
"No one knows, including her."
Kushina took a breath, "So...are you going to bury it in your heart forever?"
"of course not."
Kushina's eyes flashed with a strange look: "Then when you want to say something, can you tell me first?"
"certainly!"
Chen patted Kushina's hair gently, and with the noise of the waves in their ears, they both stuck out their buttocks, leaned on the railing and looked outside.
After an unknown amount of time, Kushina straightened up, stretched, then raised her hands to her eyes and looked into the distance.
"Chen, when we get to the Fire Country, should we go back to the village directly?"
"No, let's go to the Craftsman Country first?"
"Well, what are you doing there?"
"I'm going to give the thunder knife to Kakashi as a gift, but the original style is definitely not good and needs to be remodeled."
Kushina asked doubtfully: "Uncle Hokage, is that okay?"
"No problem, our ninja's mission time is very flexible, as long as we go back before the deadline."
"When does it end?"
"Well... the half-year mission period has only passed six days."
"Uh, aren't we on a B-level mission? Why did it take so long?"
Chen laughed and said, "What's this? Uncle Jiraiya took on a C-level mission before he left. He has been on it for three years and he hasn't come back yet."
“…”
"Don't worry, the Third Hokage has given me so much time just because I hope I can take you out to have a look. You will also become a stand-alone ninja in the future. Too little experience is not enough.
What's more, we are ninjas and we don't have 996, so what are we afraid of? "
Kushina was stunned.
"996... what is it?"
"996..." Chen thought for a moment and said, "I go to work at nine in the morning, go to bed at nine in the evening, and work six hours a day."
"...I have been in the barrier class for so long, and I didn't know there were such good benefits!" Kushina's eyes lit up, "If this is really possible, 997, I would also like it."
Chen couldn't help but laugh.
If Konoha really implements this system, I'm afraid it won't be long before the Third Hokage will say: "The ninjas who are dawdling are not my brothers!"
