but……

If even Shuichi can see through this fundamental truth, why can't that guy from Kumogakure see through it?

……

Perhaps it was because he was middle-aged that Itachi Uchiha was no longer as extreme as he was when he was a child. With the support of Shinji and Shuichi, he agreed to his son's own plans for the future.

At the same time, a new Class 7 has been established.

The new generation of Ino-Shika-Cho mentor Jonin is an ordinary Jonin from the Nara clan. He had been working with Shikaku on a series of reform issues and is now teaching some things to Shikadai in advance.

As for Chocho Akimichi and Hana Yamanaka, the Hokage Building didn't really care much about their combat strength.

The other Team 8 consists of Hyuga Yako, Metal, and Iwabe, with Hyuga Tokuma serving as their Jonin instructor. The significance of this is self-evident, as it rests on Hyuga Yako's shoulders.

Metal has been training with Lee, and with further enhancements, he will be able to enter the cloud's gravity dimension with Kai, so Tokuma doesn't need to worry about him.

Only Iwabe Yukino had this opportunity because of his perseverance and determination in participating in the ninja exams time and time again.

However, the Hokage Building did not value it.

……

After the three genin teams were formed, and after agreeing that the teacher would treat everyone to a traditional barbecue dinner that evening, everyone either went to the hospital or went home.

Two o'clock in the afternoon, Uchiha clan territory.

"You look like you haven't eaten for three days, just waiting to eat me today!"

Yun looked at Kai, who was eating and drinking heartily, speechless. After Itachi left, Kai, as usual, prepared to come and train with Yun.

Then Yun opened the spatial passage, letting this person go in and have a good time. When he came out, it was just in time for dinner.

Faced with this person's thick eyebrows, large eyes, and affectionate gaze, Yun and Ino really couldn't send him away, so...

They ate like that for over two hours.

"belch!"

After letting out a burp, Akai rubbed his stomach and said, "Haha...looks like you haven't gotten used to it yet. By the way, why aren't you practicing with me today?"

Yun: "I have some things to do today. Itachi arranged to visit with his son this morning, and Neji's daughter is coming this afternoon."

Kai paused, then said, "Neji and Tenten's daughter? The last time I met her, I asked her if she wanted to train with me. I offered to give her a special training outfit if she was willing, but..."

A picture of a sprout wearing a green bodysuit flashed through Yun's mind, and she couldn't bear to look at it.

Why would a girl like Ya Zi be willing to wear clothes like this?

Furthermore, with your training methods that involve doing thirty handstands around Konoha leaves all the time, a beautiful girl like her would probably be ruined.

Yun glanced at Guy speechlessly and said, "That child isn't suited for the Eight Gates, but he inherited Tenten's space-time talent and Neji's intelligence, so he could give the Flying Thunder God Technique a try."

"Flying Thunder God!?"

Kai stood up abruptly: "I'm entrusting Yazi to your care!"

Uh →_→

Seize the opportunity and strike while the iron is hot. Who says this guy is simple-minded?

How could someone who can judge an enemy's upper body movements by their footsteps be stupid?

Kakashi was arrogant and conceited in his youth, but later he repeatedly shocked Guy's power.

"Alright, alright."

Yun waved his hand: "Although the Flying Thunder God Technique is a powerful ninjutsu, it's nothing to me. Tenten's throwing ninja tools skills are just right to be used in conjunction with the kunai coordinates of the Flying Thunder God Technique."

At that moment, there was a knock on the door of the reception room, and Ino led a girl in.

“Kai…Grandpa…Uncle Yun…”

As soon as the address was uttered, Kai immediately patted Yun on the shoulder: "Nephew?"

Under a repulsive force, Kai's hand couldn't fall. Yun looked at the guy who wanted to level up: "You've eaten your fill. If you have nothing else to do, hurry up and leave. I have important things to do."

Kai smiled smugly, stood up and patted Yako on the shoulder: "Study hard, and when you can combine the Flying Thunder God Technique with your bare hands without hand seals, you'll be almost as good as the Fourth Hokage."

……

three days later.

At the Hokage Building, Naruto's face was full of smiles as he had just assigned some small tasks to the three newly formed genin teams.

Looking at Boruto's condition, it's quite reminiscent of what happened back then.

However, this good mood was completely shattered when Shikamaru carried in a file as tall as a person.

"How come... there are still so many? Are we going to have to work overtime until midnight again tonight?"

"boom!"

Shikamaru placed the documents on the desk and said, "I've already taken care of most of it for you. The security forces in various places have been very busy lately, and the rumors about Changsheng Technology have already spread."

"In addition... there are still five months until this year's Chunin Exams, and the Research Department has offered some prize options for the person who gets the most Chunin promotions."

"Also, there's been news about Black Zetsu from the Forest Kingdom recently. They've been active more and more lately. They've cleaned up so many times over the past ten years, why don't we send Brother Yun over to solve this once and for all?"

Upon hearing this, Naruto shook his head slightly: "That was homework that Brother Yun left for me and Sasuke. The other party has been hiding and has not posed any threat to peace. Since Brother Yun hasn't spoken, we can't just give up."

After speaking, Naruto thought for a moment and asked, "Has it been confirmed? The source of the rumors about immortality?"

Shikamaru placed a small cube on the table, and the next moment a beam of light shone out and projected onto the wall.

"Prove it? How can I prove it? It was fake from the start. The source of everything is that person. How can I prove the existence of the Longevity Technology from that person?"

"This is your mission: to make everyone believe that Konoha possesses the technology to truly grant immortality. This is what you need to do."

"More than a decade has passed, and everyone has been deceived by Konoha's so-called peace, but we haven't!"

“We have never forgotten the hatred between the Fourth and Fifth Hokage. At that time, in order to allow the village’s remaining forces to retreat, the Fourth Hokage single-handedly stopped Uchiha Kumo and was eventually burned to ashes.”

"The Fifth Raikage used himself as a vessel to bear unbearable power and thwarted the plot by Konoha to destroy Kumogakure!"

"That Obito Uchiha simply changed his name and is now living comfortably in Konoha. And what about the Fifth Raikage?"

"Don't forget why you came here..."

"I understand."

The projected image was dark, but the dialogue was very clear.

This is the most important section selected; anything less important has been skipped.

The projected beam of light receded, and Naruto sighed, looking at Shikamaru: "What are your plans?"

Shikamaru passed the ball back without hesitation: "Only the Hokage can make a decision on this kind of thing, right? I have no objection. It mainly depends on your attitude."

Naruto nodded.

Although there is a lot of talk about Changsheng Technology now, the reason why the information was leaked here is unknown.

And... in fact, this kind of thing doesn't mean much.

The Eight-Tails Jinchuriki who never succeeded to the position of the Sixth Raikage seems to be the same as before after all these years, still unable to figure out even the most fundamental questions.

As for whether there will be any further tricks...

Hehe, according to the Nine-Tails inside the body, even the Sage of Six Paths is far inferior to it in its perception.

Just as Naruto was about to make a decision, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

An ANBU member knelt down on one knee: "Lord Hokage, Lord Uchiha Kumo has brought the best advice."

Naruto took the sealed document, opened it, looked at it, and then handed it directly to Shikamaru.

"It seems Brother Yun and your dad are on the same page, but when it comes to harvesting韭菜 (a metaphor for exploiting people), Uncle Lu Jiu still doesn't think Brother Yun is as ruthless as him!"

Shikamaru's eyes twitched after he finished reading the document.

However, he wasn't surprised.

Throughout his life, he has always had unique insights into the visionary outlook for the future.

Over the course of more than a decade, thanks to the gradual advancement of reforms and driven by the wheels of history, numerous groups have sprung up in the ninja world.

What were once considered caravans have now grown into a bloated entity. They've learned to exploit loopholes in Konoha's own laws to make more money.

Over the past decade or so, the Hokage Building has remained unchanged, but the surrounding high-rise buildings that have sprung up are now recklessly sucking blood to sustain themselves.

They sought out intelligent individuals to study the laws established by Konoha and trained so-called guards to strengthen their own power.

None of the guys who have built their conglomerates in the last ten years or so are stupid.

They were well aware of the downfall of Daming Prefecture, so they were even more willing to use their already immense wealth to build their own guard.

According to intelligence from the Dark Division, there are many among them who possess special abilities and great power.

"The law is constantly being revised and improved, and these intelligent people are also constantly cultivating their own power. They are not stupid, which is why they act within the rules time and time again."

Shikamaru laughed as he spoke: "But similarly... in this peaceful era, the richer they are, the less willing they are to die."

"Therefore, when they are about to die, even if they live just one more day, they will hold on tightly like a drowning person."

"But if we just announce it like this, those people will probably go crazy..."

Naruto smiled and said, "Desires are endless. For people like them, perhaps it's really possible to take them down completely, even down to the roots."

After Konoha's first major meeting, Uchiha Un had the authority to make the highest recommendations.

Over the years, Konoha has indeed accepted his suggestions to the greatest extent possible, and the changes have only been minor.

Thus, the reward for the village that came in first place in the Chunin Exams has been determined.

……

Time flies.

The three newly formed genin teams, under the guidance of jonin instructors, have already traveled to some small countries to handle minor missions.

In this new era, the village no longer has the kind of tasks that were done more than a decade ago, such as taking care of children, killing wild boars, or helping a noble lady find that damned cat.

After all, the Daming Prefecture is gone, and the nobility is a thing of the past.

"Yu, Sarada has already awakened her Sharingan, why haven't you changed at all?"
