As someone at the bottom of society, he didn't know the specific reasons, but he had heard that the Sand Village in the Land of Wind felt that Konoha had too much land.
What could be so outrageous as to cause a war between two great ninja villages?
However, war actually broke out...
That time, Boruto truly witnessed what war was like.
Blood and death are everywhere. The guy who greeted you one day is already cold when you are carried back the next day.
Soon... the unremarkable Jonin instructor died. During reconnaissance, he was ambushed by the enemy, and five or six Jonin died as well.
Then... even the unremarkable teammate died.
But why wasn't I assigned to go out on a mission?
He quickly understood the reason.
As the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, he is the most destructive weapon on the battlefield. And as such an ultimate power that does not distinguish between friend and foe, it should naturally be used at the most critical moment.
And so... the seal was broken.
Most of the village's ninjas retreated, while a small number stayed behind to hold off the enemy. In the end, they were all annihilated by the enraged Nine-Tails, which had taken over their bodies.
In a daze, he had even forgotten his original world.
until……
"From the establishment of the ninja village system to the arrival of the new era centered on Konoha, what you have just experienced is the cyclical history of ninjas."
"In contrast to the ninja village system, the Warring States period before that was far more chaotic. Human life was cheap, and death was commonplace."
Hearing the familiar voice, Boruto looked up and asked, "So... this is the meaning behind everything Dad did, right?"
As the environment gradually crumbled, Boruto still looked up at Uncle Yun in front of him.
Yun nodded: "Your grandfather was born an orphan, without parents, yet he gained everyone's approval and became the Fourth Hokage. Your father, through repeated efforts, gained the approval of Kurama (the Nine-Tails), as well as your grandfather and the villagers, and became the Fifth Hokage."
"Do you think you could do it if you were in that situation? You've already seen the result, haven't you..."
"Sometimes it has to be said that people are born with different characteristics, but some people who are born with exceptional advantages still complain about their fate. What do you think your future will be like?"
……
Inside the venue.
Sarada and Yu had already helped Boruto up. Looking at his two unremarkable teammates, Boruto smiled.
He turned around and glanced at Shinki.
"I am Boruto Uzumaki, why can't I lose? I inherited my father's will, not the glory he earned through his hard work..."
"The glory of our fathers belongs to our fathers. My glory will one day be earned through my own efforts, not inherited!"
After saying that, the three of them walked towards the corridor of the lounge.
Even after the figure disappeared, Shinki remained rooted to the spot.
It was only at this moment that Rock Lee appeared unhurriedly and announced that Shinki of Sunagakure had won.
But at this moment... it seems that the result of winning this match is no longer so important.
……
Inside the passage, Sarada couldn't help but give Boruto a nudge from behind.
"What time is it? You still have the mind to talk nonsense? The Nine-Tails' chakra is not so easy to use. You need to go to the medical department right away. You have a large burn."
Uchiha Yu didn't blame him, but instead looked at Boruto with amusement and asked, "How was it? Did you feel like you were standing on a high ground lecturing your past self? Wasn't that satisfying?"
Seeing that his close friend had the same idea, Boruto grinned and said, "Awesome! No wonder Dad always likes this, it feels so good."
Sarada was so angry that she let go, and Boruto cried out in pain.
Fortunately, the medical department took over, which relieved Boruto; otherwise, he was afraid he would get beaten up later.
He's had a big fight, so he can't beat Sarada right now.
……
After the three semi-final matches, in the fourth match, Uchiha Yu eliminated another Iwagakure player, and Sarada faced off against the last remaining Kirigakure player.
So after the semi-finals, the final, as expected, became an absolute battle between Konoha and Sunagakure.
Konoha's side: Hyuga Meiko, Uchiha Yu, Uchiha Sarada.
Sunagakure: Shinki, Yodo, Ranro.
The finals are scheduled for the next day, and today's matches have ended by this time.
Jiraiya stroked his chin, not in a hurry to leave, and looked at Yun, asking, "I remember that Naruto and Sasuke also experienced a genjutsu during their graduation exam, right? It seems you really have a knack for teaching."
Upon hearing this, Yun jokingly replied, "You've already become the teacher of Jiraiya for most adult men in the ninja world, how can I compare to you? I heard that when Tsunade found out about this, she almost tore you apart."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
With a forced smile, Jiraiya waved his hand and said, "It's all just empty fame, nothing more. I'm just making a living; I can't really be considered a teacher."
Ino glanced at Jiraiya and secretly spat out a curse at the old lecher.
You should know that this teacher of the Fourth Hokage, one of the legendary Sannin, is now one of the most hated people in the entire Ninja World Women's Association.
The barrier perception class of Konoha, even under the coercive requirement of the Women's Association, made this person wear the positioning device of the Second Research Department as soon as they entered the village.
The kind that will sound an alarm if it gets close to a sensitive area.
"You're so old, but you're still young at heart. It seems you'll never be able to fulfill your original wish in this lifetime."
Jiraiya raised an eyebrow upon hearing this: "Although that tree is very large and lush, it is absolutely impossible to give up an entire forest for this tree!"
At that moment, Sakura, who had come with Tenten and Hinata to find Ino, heard these words.
She retorted indignantly, "I will tell Lady Tsunade that. Besides, Lady Tsunade has never wanted anyone like you to have anything!"
"Sakura... Sakura?!"
As soon as he turned around, Jiraiya instantly made his escape.
Himawari, holding Hinata's hand, asked, "Mom, can Lady Tsunade turn into a very big and lush tree?"
Hinata: (°Д°)丿
After the four women explained repeatedly, they finally managed to erase this strange remark from Sunflower's memory.
……
Chapter 471: Mom's Party
"bump."
After clinking their glasses, they drank it all in one gulp. Several mothers felt that they should have a drink today, so for the sake of their sons and daughters, they all stayed home and rested.
The reason given is for tomorrow's final; as for the few already eliminated in the semifinals...
You've already lost, and you still have the nerve to come out and freeload?
Instead of properly training and preparing for the next Chunin Exams, you want to go out for barbecue? Where's your shame?
So... this is a mom's party.
"TianTian, forget about those few, but Yako, Yu, and Sarada should have been brought along to celebrate together."
Temari poured herself another cup and also filled Sakura's cup.
Ino, who was standing nearby, replied, "Tomorrow is the final against Sunagakure. Although the first place is not determined by the village, under the rule of three-on-three free-for-all, it will inevitably start with a confrontation between Konoha and Sunagakure."
"In a team-based final, understanding your teammates' abilities and planning tactics is a given. Also... I heard from Yu that Lutai was with them today."
Temari nodded, then sighed, "That's all the kid can do now, but at least he inherited his father's brains."
Sakura teased, "If you say that, doesn't it prove that Temari isn't very bright? Hahaha..."
Temari was annoyed by this and grabbed the sake she had just poured for Sakura and drank it: "I'm very smart! Back in the day, I was the Kazekage's reliable support, just like Shikamaru."
Tenten sighed, "I wonder if Yako can keep up. Sarada's Sharingan, Yu's Eight Gates, only Yako..."
"day by day……"
Hinata's gentle voice rang out. She glanced at Ino and then at Tenten: "I heard from Ino that... Mei's Flying Thunder God Technique is already at a basic level."
"Huh? Really?"
Tian Tian looked surprised, then said angrily, "This child didn't tell me? Is he afraid I'll tell everyone? I'm not..."
Tenten stopped talking at this point, but her gaze unconsciously drifted towards Temari.
That one glance made it clear to everyone; the root cause lay in their identities.
The Changsheng Technology scandal is widely known, and Ino obviously knows who it is because of Yun.
Furthermore, once Konoha announced the reward for the first place winner of the Joint Chunin Exams, this conspiracy targeting Konoha's next unification strategy was exposed.
And everyone present... none of them were not intricately connected to the upper echelons of Konoha. Even Temari, originally from Sunagakure, has a husband, Shikamaru, who is now the second-in-command in the Hokage Building's administrative office.
Many things are actually known to everyone.
"Temari, um... I didn't... I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry!"
I feel a bit helpless every day.
However, Temari simply waved her hand and said, "There's no need to apologize. In fact, the fact that you blurted it out just now clearly shows that you weren't wary of me. We're just drinking because we're friends, so there's no need to be on guard."
As she spoke, Temari looked at Tenten, who still looked uneasy, and said, "Since those stinky men aren't here today, it's okay to say some private things about our mom group..."
"At that time, although I did have feelings for Shikamaru at first, those feelings weren't enough for me to leave Sunagakure and come to Konoha. After all, that was the village where I grew up. My mind wouldn't allow me to do something so foolish as to move to an environment full of enemies and strangers for the sake of a man."
After he finished speaking, neither Sakura, Ino, nor the others present said a word.
There's no way to judge, but rationally speaking, what the other party said was their true opinion.
If they were in the same situation, none of the women would be fools, and they wouldn't have made that choice either.
Temari continued, "In fact, more than a decade ago, the situation in Sunagakure was not going well. Gaara succeeded as the Fifth Kazekage, but among the five great ninja villages, Sunagakure's overall strength was the weakest, and both Gaara and I were well aware of this."
"It was precisely because of this that we did not participate in many of the four great ninja villages' plans against Konoha at that time."
She couldn't help but sigh as she spoke, after all, it was the village where she grew up.
