Witty Naruto Life

Chapter 82 Konoha Collapse Plan
Recently.

Naruto's schedule became monotonous again, as if everything was suddenly back on track.

Practice Flying Thunder God Technique and the one-handed Rasengan; gather information from all sides and collect evidence; take time to help Qingquan clarify his thoughts and be ready to take action at any time.

What was different from before was that Naruto began to meet Jiraiya in front of the bathhouse from time to time. Although the latter would act embarrassed, he would still care about Naruto's recent situation, so the title of "lecherous sage" would often appear on Naruto's lips.

Of course, he was still most accustomed to calling Jiraiya "Senior Brother" to remind himself that the plot might change and he should be prepared at any time.

On the other side, Sasuke also entered a new round of training, and Sakura was silent as before, but before that, Naruto asked her for the fragment, saying that he would not study it for a while, and Sakura agreed.

And so it came to July 7th.

There is less than a week left until the third exam.

Naruto's home.

Shiba Qingquan dressed himself neatly, polished his forehead protector until it shined, prepared all the paper materials, and finally put on the mask that Naruto bought on the street, put on a black robe, and changed into the attire of an Anbu.

He was going to formally expose Danzo's conspiracy today. After these few days of 'special training', he had gone from being tongue-tied and confused about the interests involved at the beginning to being able to recite it by heart now.

It was like a lawsuit had been prepared. Naruto was the lawyer and the plaintiff. The defendant was powerful, but they were no longer in a difficult situation.

"Are you ready?"

"Okay... after this is over I can go back to the ninja school, right?"

During this period, he even corrected Qingquan's speaking habits.

Naruto nodded, "Once this is taken care of, you can go back to your students."

"That's good, old man... I should have gone back a long time ago. I haven't corrected my homework, and I haven't prepared for my lessons. And those brats will definitely slack off when I'm not around. They're little brats, they won't listen unless you push them..."

He had been mechanically studying politics, which he had no interest in, and it seemed like he had been holding it in for too long. Now he was silently pouring out everything he wanted to say to Naruto, but it all came down to one sentence - he missed his children.

Naruto has seen many middle-aged men who don't know how to express their emotions correctly.

His dad is like this. During the holidays, he was watching anime in his room, and then his dad suddenly walked into the room like an AI, looked here, touched there, and secretly peeked at what he was doing, like a lion patrolling his territory, and finally left without closing the door.

I don't want to miss his youth, but I don't know how to care about his life.

Naruto just listened silently. In fact, he really wanted to tell Qingquan that after this incident, you may never be able to return to your original life. Before Danzo is eliminated, you may not be able to live a peaceful life like before.

But he held it back.

"Got it. Now focus on the mission. I'll repeat, if you encounter any problems, just run away. Don't hesitate, even yell. I'll be waiting for you at Ichiraku Ramen."

After saying that, he put a small Flying Thunder God Kunai into Qingquan's pocket, indicating that he could come directly to support if there was any danger.

"Don't worry, I promise to complete the mission!"

"Okay, grab my arm."

Qingquan did as he was told, and the next moment, the two of them suddenly appeared next to Ichiraku Ramen Restaurant.

Naruto had already set up the Flying Thunder God Seal here. This place was close to the Hokage Building, but there wouldn't be too many people watching. Qingquan walked from this direction, while Naruto ate here and was on standby at any time.

"come on."

Naruto patted his shoulder and Qingquan nodded, walking towards the Hokage Building at a leisurely pace.

Walk into the ramen restaurant.

"Uncle, two big bowls of barbecued pork!"

"okay!"

As Naruto said this, he was suddenly stunned and thought of an allusion - killing Hua Xiong with warm wine.

"If this goes well, then the name of this story can be changed to - Warm Ramen Kills Danzo, hehe." He thought so in his mind to relieve his tension.

"Are you going to treat me to some noodles?"

Naruto was startled. When he turned around, Jiraiya was looking at him with a smile. He appeared in the noodle shop silently.

"Ah~ It's the lecherous sage," Naruto said, trying to appear relaxed. "Since you're here, you can join us. But I originally wanted to share two bowls, haha."

"Don't call me a lecherous sage, idiot." Jiraiya knocked Naruto's head, took the noodles from the uncle, and started chatting with Naruto.

Naruto secretly thought that this was not good. He knew that Jiraiya was concerned about him, but this also meant that if something happened to Qingquan, he might not be able to arrive immediately. He had to get rid of Jiraiya first.

His heart suddenly rose to his throat and his mind began to think rapidly. After a few seconds, he pretended to tie his shoelaces, but actually took out a small white snake from his sleeve and secretly placed it on the bench next to him.

The sound of the two talking was transmitted to Mitarashi Anko's ears through the little snake. She took out the little snake in confusion. It sounded like it was from Ichiraku Ramen?
Naruto coughed loudly from time to time, as if to remind me of something. The other person's voice sounded very familiar...

Anko didn't respond immediately, but pondered Naruto's intentions.

After a few seconds, the little snake stopped making any sound.

"That's Lord Jiraiya..." Red Bean finally remembered the owner of the voice, but Naruto's behavior was very strange. It was understandable that the two of them were eating noodles in a noodle shop, but why did he suddenly take out the little snake? Was it an accident?
She had a vague intuition telling her that something was wrong, so she immediately left home and headed towards Ichiraku Ramen.

...Inside the Hokage Building.

There was hardly anyone in the corridor. Qingquan felt a little confused. None of the questioning steps that were originally planned were involved. He just walked towards the Hokage's office unhindered.

What's going on? Is it so easy to get into the Hokage's office? It's different from what Naruto said?

The surroundings were eerily quiet. In the stillness, Qingquan could even hear his own breathing and his gradually accelerating heartbeat.

"Something's wrong... Logically, there should be ANBU guarding this place, but it's like there's no one here..."

suddenly,

He smelled a faint smell of rust.

"Hmm?" He looked in the direction of the rust smell, but there was nothing. The surroundings seemed very clean, without any stains.

He couldn't help but quicken his pace. The smell made him very uncomfortable. His breathing, heartbeat and blood flow suddenly accelerated. If he had retained his memories before the time travel, he would know that this reaction was called adrenaline secretion.

beep, beep...

Qingquan looked around, his pace slowly quickening. He glanced out the window and saw that it was still as peaceful as usual. As the exam approached, the streets had become bustling early on, in stark contrast to where he was now.

The corridor seemed to become cramped because of this.

beep, beep...

He finally reached the door to the Hokage's office.

……

Ichiraku Ramen.

"Isn't this teacher Anko?" Naruto saw Mitarashi Anko's delicate body rising and falling, and introduced her to Jiraiya beside him with great joy: "She is the examiner of our second exam, and she is very responsible."

"Really?" Jiraiya looked at Red Bean and recalled some past events. He didn't say it out loud, but nodded at her politely.

Anko greeted him politely, and saw Naruto calmly glance in the direction of the Hokage Building.

She was stunned, not quite understanding what Naruto meant. What did the Hokage Building mean?
As the safest place in Konoha, the Hokage Building naturally wouldn't pose any risk, but why did Naruto's eyes seem to be telling her that something was wrong inside?

Or did he want me to go in?
But Naruto didn't say anything more, because Jiraiya continued to chat with Naruto, and it would seem inappropriate for her to say more.

Anyway, let’s go take a look inside the building first.

……

at the same time,

The playground of the Ninja School.

Sarutobi Hiruzen stood in the center, with a group of children sitting around him. Among them were Konohamaru, children from prominent families like Hinata Hanabi, and children from ordinary families. Children from different classes sat together and listened to the teachings of the Hokage.

This was a typical ideological and political class. Hiruzen had often invited children to visit the Hokage Rock in the past, and he would explain the significance of the Will of Fire.

"I believe everyone has heard the teacher talk about the Will of Fire. Today, let's talk about what a ninja is."

"Are there any students who want to speak first?"

He gently asked for everyone's opinions. A girl wearing glasses raised her hand and responded to Hiruzen's question with a standard answer:
"Hokage-sama, ninjas are a special group with special abilities and special missions and responsibilities."

Hiruzen gave her an approving look, affirming her solid basic skills. After asking her to sit down, he changed the subject and said, "The student just now gave the standard answer. Next, let's understand what a ninja is from a common sense perspective."

"Classmates, the core of ninja lies in the word 'ninja'. Do you know what this word ninja specifically represents? There is no need to refer to the standard answers. Everyone is free to speak."

The children began to whisper, and someone raised his hand and said, "I think 'ninjutsu' means that during training we must endure hardships that ordinary people cannot endure. Only in this way can we become handsome and powerful ninjas, just like the Fourth Hokage!"

His words resonated with many people.

Someone else raised his hand and said, "Hokage, I think 'ninja' means tolerating the misunderstanding of others and silently giving and protecting!" After saying that, he looked at the white-clothed Anbu beside Hiruzen with envy.

Some people also agreed with this and echoed the boy's words.

"grandfather!"

Hiruzen raised his eyebrows when he saw Konohamaru raised his hand. The sun was rising in the west, and he usually hated this kind of class the most.

"Konohamaru, go ahead."

Konohamaru stood up and looked around at everyone, then slowly said: "Teacher Qingquan once said that the nature of ninjas is not that complicated. For example, Hokage is the leader of everyone, and we are his subordinates."

At this point, everyone frowned slightly, but Hiruzen didn't interrupt him, motioning for him to continue.

"When the leader gives orders, we obey them; when the leader is attacked, we protect him; when the leader dies, we elect someone to take his place."

"We are soldiers brought up by the Hokage. 'Ninja' means to hold back and not act rashly. We must obey orders! But at the same time, we must trust our leader. Only when everyone unites as one and works together can we overcome difficulties and resist powerful enemies!"

After he finished speaking, the situation suddenly got out of control.
