Konoha: Tsunade, I am the Hokage!

While Obito was recovering, a figure outside was fleeing for his life.

A ninja from the Iwagakure Demolition Team.

He originally came to follow Obito, but he never expected that Obito was ambushed by Kyohiko and had to escape with a broken leg.

He was left alone to flee in panic and in a state of disgrace.

If he could run away, he wouldn't say anything, but the current situation -

Behind him, pieces of paper were flying quickly, rustling like birds.

Further back.

The one teleported over by Konoha's Flying Thunder God has already forced Obito to retreat, and until now the other party has no intention of coming to rescue him.

Hold on!

He gritted his teeth and threw out pieces of clay one by one without paying any attention.

but.

This kind of clay explosion did no harm to Xiaonan who had turned into origami.

She kept splitting and combining the paper, and from time to time the origami turned into shields to block the explosions.

After the pieces of paper flew out and scattered, they quickly gathered in the front.

"laugh!"

Paper shurikens flew through the air, leaving wounds on his body.

Just now.

The space opened up, and a figure emerged from the alien space.

Uchiha Obito.

however.

The figure in the distance was like lightning or a meteor, instantly cutting through the sky and catching up with them in the blink of an eye.

Bang!
Obito and the Iwagakure ninja, who were in the process of space transformation, were killed by a single punch.

but.

He only hit a shadow clone. Obito was not a fool. It was impossible for him to send out his real body to rescue in this situation.

Sending a shadow clone is already a sign of Obito's conscience.

After confirming that there was no way to rescue him, he gave up the rescue attempt and quickly opened up the space and ran away.

slip!
After knowing that there was no hope of rescue, the Iwagakure ninja simply swallowed a piece of clay.

Jingyan grabbed Konan in an instant and quickly used Flying Thunder God to jump to Yahiko's side.

Then, chakra and full speed!

Whoosh!
After he led his men away, a shocking explosion occurred here, but at the same time, the wooden clone he had reserved beside Yahiko formed seals with his hands.

Spiritualism·Triple Rashomon!

boom.

The shocking explosion swept all around, and the entire forest was covered in explosions and flames.

At the back, the three people who were protected by the wooden wall gradually loosened their guard.

"These madmen from Iwagakure who love explosions!"

Xiaonan couldn't help but yell.

They had dealt with ninjas from the Iwagakure Village before, and many of them had good personalities.

However, few of the ninjas in the Demolition Team are good people, and even the good ones will cause crazy destruction.

Yahiko standing by had already fainted, his body covered with explosions, splinters, and knife wounds.

All these injuries were caused by Obito.

When facing Obito, it is difficult for ordinary people to restrain the effect of Kamui unless they can burst out powerful and comprehensive lethal ninjutsu in an instant like Kyohiko.

and.

Now, Obito has two eyes at the same time, and the effect of Kamui is stronger than Kyouhiko expected.

Just now, he actually wanted to take advantage of the moment when Obito opened the space and try to enter the Kamui space in reverse from Obito's space channel.

unfortunately,

Such an attempt soon failed.

Because Obito noticed the changes in the space channel, he cut off the connection of the space channel in an instant.

That guy's control over this technique is getting stronger and stronger!
Jingyan took a deep breath, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes.

Although the Flying Thunder God Mark had been placed on Obito before, which could allow him to instantly attack Obito through Flying Thunder God, this opportunity only happened once.

With Obito's agility and the insight of his Mangekyō Sharingan, he can capture the action in an instant in a one-on-one situation.

Unless, like this time, a sudden and fatal attack is launched from a position unknown to the opponent.

and so.

It’s not that there was no gain at all.

Jingyan thought secretly.

"Kyohiko-kun, thank you so much this time."

Konan looked at Yahiko and the explosion scene in the distance.

If it weren't for Jingyan's support, she and Yayan alone...

She could still protect herself, but Yahiko would definitely not be able to save his life in front of the weird Obito.

Jingyan nodded slightly.

"I know some medical ninjutsu, let me do it."

After pulling out the splinter and taking out the debris, he formed seals with his hands.

The magic of palm!
Most of the injuries on Yahiko's body were external, and soon these wounds began to heal rapidly, and the flesh and blood began to move back to normal.

After several minutes, Yahiko gradually recovered and opened his eyes.

"I……"

"I'm not dead?"

He looked around blankly, and then his eyes gradually became clear.

Kyohiko?

Yahiko realized.

I was saved once again.

He sat up and coughed repeatedly.

"Thank you!"

"Nothing, I just wanted to kill Konoha's traitor."

Jingyan replied.

Yahiko was silent for a few seconds, then he couldn't help but say: "Obito's ability is too weird. It's impossible to resist him when you meet him."

"So, you need to practice a ninjutsu with greater destructive power. In addition, he has transplanted a special kind of flesh and blood, so his body can recover slowly."

Jingyan pointed out.

Yahiko sighed.

"No wonder you asked me and Xiaonan to find Hanzo immediately and not stay outside for too long. This kind of opponent is really difficult to deal with!"

Seeing is believing.

Before this, no matter how much Kyouhiko said, he and Konan did not have a very deep impression of Obito's strength.

but now.

After fighting once, he knew——

With his abilities, he couldn't cause fatal damage to Obito, so he either had to continue training and improving, or hide.

Compared to him and Konan, Hanzo's poison is enough to pose a threat to Obito.

and so.

It's safe to stay in the Hidden Rain Village!
"Thank you. After we go back, I will stay in the Hidden Rain Village with Konan. I won't go out again until I have mastered a technique that can threaten Obito."

Yahiko's face was serious.

"This is the safer approach, but you and Konan both have things to do, so how can you not leave Konoha?"

Jingyan said, smiling softly and throwing out a scroll.

"If you practice this technique, maybe you will gain something."

"This is……"

Yahiko took it, opened it, and a look of surprise immediately appeared on his face.

A water-style ninjutsu based on the extension of the water waves.

"It is very destructive, you can refer to it."

"No!"

Yahiko was first surprised, then ashamed, "Kyohiko-kun, I have taken too many things from your Konoha, I will forget about it!"

“Aren’t we allies and partners?”

Jingyan asked back.

Yahiko was stunned and deeply moved.

He is good at water escape technique and naturally understands the value of this technique.

It seems to be just a direction, but many powerful ninjutsu actually lack direction and not-so-difficult techniques.

The idea is more important than the technique itself!
This is the idea that Jingyan taught him.

Through it, many powerful water-style ninjutsu can be extended, some of which are definitely effective and practical.

Yahiko stopped being pretentious, nodded heavily, and stretched out a hand.

"Of course, we are partners!"

Snapped!
The two hands collided.

Yahiko looked sincere.

Xiao Nan, who was standing beside him, also had tears in his eyes and was deeply moved.

She always felt that although Jingyan and them had a relationship through Jiraiya, they were from two different villages after all.

After Kyohiko becomes the captain of the ANBU, his attitude and stance will definitely change and will no longer be the same as before.

even.

They understand this change very well.

Every ninja will have this realization the moment he becomes a ninja.

but.

Jingyan didn't.

Even though they are from other villages, Jingyan will still support and protect them as always, and even took out precious ninjutsu scrolls.

"I wanted to ambush Obito, but unfortunately I failed. I'll take you guys from behind."

"Thank you!" Yahiko did not refuse.

If you continue to refuse in this situation, wouldn’t you be a fool?

……

When they reached the Hidden Rain Village, Yahiko said goodbye to Kyōhiko.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief when he returned to the village.

Then, Yahiko said in a serious tone, "Madara and his men are definitely not targeting us, but Nagato!"

"Reincarnation Eye?"

"Ah."

Yahiko nodded, his face serious.

If they were to die on the way, wouldn't Nagato go crazy?
Konan sighed.

"It seems that Jing Yan was right. Their target is these eyes..."

Jingyan mentioned it before.

It was for this reason that they left the Land of Birds and accepted Hanzo's invitation to work in the Hidden Rain Village.

Xiaonan was silent for a few seconds.

"So, what should we do now?"

"Practice! Become stronger!"

Yahiko clutched the scroll in his sleeve, "We can't let down Kyouhiko-kun's kindness, and we can't let Nagato worry."

"Ah."

Xiaonan nodded heavily.

As she walked into the village, she sighed, "Yahiko, do you still remember the teacher's philosophy?"

"teacher?"

Yahiko was stunned for a moment.

Love, communication, peace.

This is Jiraiya's core idea about peace.

In the beginning, they also followed this path, until later Jingyan said that this path was not feasible, and Jiraiya also rejected his own idea.

and so.

Later, he, Konan, and Nagato gradually changed their thinking and came to the current idea of ​​"small peace".

Right now--

Peace is too difficult and needs to be achieved step by step.

First, within a certain scope and limit, we can achieve a stable life and make everyone's life better and better.

He was puzzled.

"Why do you mention this?"

"Because, I feel that although Jingyan-kun has always said that peace is very difficult and it is definitely not something that can be achieved as the teacher said, he has been practicing and trying."

Xiaonan sighed.

Yahiko was stunned when he heard this.

Jingyan has been practicing it?

He thought it was absurd at first, because Jingyan was the person who most disdained the teacher's way of thinking, but when he thought about it carefully, he felt it was right.

Jingyan gave him the scroll without hesitation. Isn't this a manifestation of trust and love?
The cooperation among the three villages and their mutual benefit is also a reflection of communication.

Achieving peace through communication and love...

Seems like it might actually work?

Yahiko stood there for a long time, not moving a step.

Konan wanted to call him, but after watching for a while, she walked over to Yahiko and kept him company quietly.

Yahiko is often like this.

Sometimes, I may sit for a long time while thinking, or do some simple exercises.

No surprise like now.

After a long time, Yahiko let out a long sigh.

"Perhaps, what Jingyan-kun said about peace is really true."

"you know?"

"I vaguely thought of something, but I don't know if it's right."

Yahiko whispered.

Xiaonan couldn't help but be curious: "Can you tell me about it?"

She had no idea at all, but Yahiko had already thought of one.

This is also the reason why she and Nagato trust Yahiko.

Yahiko expressed his thoughts.

"Thoughts, from communication to understanding, and then to intersection and bond, the bridge needed in the middle is thoughts and ideals."

"This kind of thing is hard to describe, but it does exist. For example, Konoha has the Will of Fire, and the Hidden Rock Village has the Will of Stone."

"What about the Hidden Rain Village?"

Yahiko asked Konan in return.

Xiaonan was stunned for a long time and finally shook his head.

No!

The Hidden Rain Village has been struggling to survive and has no room for thinking about "thoughts".

"We have!"

Yahiko said firmly, "We must change the Rain Country, so that everyone in the Rain Country and the Small Ninja Village can live a better life and not be bullied."

"This kind of thinking brought us all together and formed the current Bird Village. It is also a bridge of thought."

Seeing the big from the small.

If we extend this idea to the ninja world, then the small ninja villages can definitely be connected together with this idea.

but.

It is very narrow and limited.

Big countries and powerful ninja villages will never understand the pain and situation of small ninja villages, so it is difficult to achieve peace between small and big ninja villages.

but.

There are always some things that everyone needs!

Yahiko felt that he had grasped the core of Kyohiko's thought, which was the secret of Kyohiko's realization of the three-village union.

He danced and moved around like a madman.

Konan could understand part of it, but what made her happiest was not that Yahiko had realized something, but that Yahiko was happy now.

She is happy when Yahiko is happy.

A family-like bond binds them together.

This is also a kind of "bridge", right?

Xiaonan thought to herself.

Thinking of this, she began to understand a little.

"Unfortunately, although I understand, the Hidden Rain Village does not have such ability."

Yahiko sighed.

He totally gets it.

Why can Konoha unite with the Hidden Rain Village and the Hidden Sand Village?

It is certainly a trend of thoughts and interests, but the underlying color is "strength". Konoha is strong enough, so the Sand Village and the Rain Village have to rely on it.

Thoughts are only auxiliary weapons.

The key is strength, which the Hidden Rain Village does not have.

but.

Yahiko said firmly, "Konan, we have to help Kyohiko!"

"Help him? It's almost like he's helping us. Let's go."

Konan complained mercilessly.

Yahiko smiled and ran towards the Hidden Rain Building: "That's right, now it's hard for us to even protect ourselves, staying alive is the greatest help to him!"

The two came to the Yuyin Building.

Hanzo had already seen the two of them, but he just didn't let anyone disturb them.

It was not until Yahiko entered that he asked about the situation.

Yahiko explained the whole process.

Hanzo was a little surprised.

In this cooperation, the Hidden Rain Village actually gained a lot of benefits.

It can be said that the Hidden Rain Village gained the most obvious benefits, while Konoha and Sunagakure got more invisible benefits.

He was surprised.

Yahiko and Kyohiko have a very good relationship, and Hanzo's initial request was just for Yahiko to build as good a relationship with Konoha as possible.

can.

As of now, Konoha seems to really intend to continue the three-village alliance and has made concessions in many aspects.

He thought for a moment and said, "What do you think about allowing our students to go to Konoha?"

"It's a good thing, but also a bad thing."

Yahiko did not hide his thoughts and expressed some of his thoughts, "Going to Konoha, we can learn more advanced education systems and knowledge, but theirs may not be suitable for us."

Hanzo was thoughtful.

After a moment, he motioned for Yahiko to continue.

So, Yahiko patiently explained his thoughts about the ninja school to Hanzo in detail.

Hanzo can also do these basic analyses, but it just takes some time and intelligence gathering.

Yahiko's concealment of the truth only put him in a disadvantageous position, but he did not mention a single word about the conjecture about the "bridge of thought".

Hanzo was thoughtful.

"So, if we run such a school system ourselves, it might cost that much money?"

"Yes. In addition, Konoha should have arranged for the subsequent training of Chunin and Jonin. We have no way of knowing this."

"We can do the same as the Sand Village and send a few people to take a look. If the effect is good, we can see."

Hanzo made up his mind.

"Yes!" (End of this chapter)
