"Thank you very much for providing this information to us this time. The news you heard is correct. The two people really want to be detrimental to the ninja in the village. Moreover, their goal is the Academy. If it weren't for your warning, I don't know how many people will be hurt from this."
Appreciated by Sarutobi Hiruzen, Li Yaoxiang seemed to be very happy and scratched his head: "Hahaha, thank goodness. This all what everyone should do, after all. As a part of Konoha, I certainly don't want to see anyone in the village injured."
"Un." Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded with satisfaction, "If everyone loves the village as much as you do, then no such thing will happen."
After saying these words of emotion, Sarutobi Hitoshi became a little lost.
Li Yaoxiang also behaved somewhat lost.
Silence for a moment.
Sarutobi Hiruzen regained his kind tone and said, "You have made a great achievement this time. Have you ever thought of any rewards?"
Hearing that Sarutobi Hiruzen wants to reward himself, Li Yaoxiang hurriedly shook his head, and his palms kept swinging in front of him.
"No, no no, Lord-Hokage. I report that thing, not for reward. I really don't want to see anyone injured in the village."
Sarutobi Hiruzen's attitude towards Li Yaoxiang only felt more and more satisfied. He nodded, persuaded: "You don't have to be polite. Rewarding you is a good thing for you and for the village. It is a statement for everyone who loves the village."
Li Yaoxiang was a bit embarrassed: "Lord-Hokage, but…."
Before Li Yaoxiang refused again, Sarutobi Hiruzen interrupted: "I heard that your parents died in an accident. If you really can't think of any reward, how about I engrave their names on the monument of heroes instead?"
AD
Speaking of which. Whether it was Sarutobi Hiruzen or Kakashi, Li Yaoxiang's expression was carefully observed.
However, they couldn't find any clues. Li Yaoxiang perfectly showed the depression of recalling his deceased parents.
Immediately afterward, Li Yaoxiang sighed and said: "Lord-Hokage, no need. If Lord-Hokage really wants to reward me, I hope Lord-Hokage will grant me permission to leave Konoha."
"Oh?" Sarutobi Hiruzen was slightly surprised, "Why do you want to leave Konoha?"
"Ahh, Lord-Hokage. Frankly, Konoha did bring me a lot of good times. But Konoha also brought me a lot of sad memories. I've never been outside of Konoha in my life. I want to go out for a walk. Just relax and take a look at the outside world."
For Li Yaoxiang's requirements, Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't feel anything wrong.
After all, Li Yaoxiang was the only one who left in his own family.
Moreover, maybe Li Yaoxiang's departure would be a good thing for Konoha.
At least no one would remember Li Yaoxiang because his parents died in an accident.
Silence for a moment.
Sarutobi Hiruzen ultimately nodded: "Very well. I will sign an approval letter to let you leave here. If you need any help, just tell me. Also, Konoha will always be your home. You are welcome to come back at any time."
"Thank you, Lord-Hokage."
"Well, then you go back first. After the approval is complete, I will let someone send it to you."
After that, Kakashi took Li Yaoxiang and left Hokage Residence.
The two people's suspicion about Li Yaoxiang was completely eliminated because of the end of this matter.
But what they would never know is that the behind-the-scenes planner of this whole incident was the Konoha commoner, Li Yaoxiang himself, who seemed to be honest and had no problems in front of them!
In order to win their trust! In order to get this approval letter from Konoha! Regarding this… everything was under the control of Li Yaoxiang!
As for why didn't he use Kotoamatsukami directly on Sarutobi Hiruzen? Hehe. Why would Li Yaoxiang do such a thankless thing?
Not to mention how high the risk of doing so, if you are not careful, clues will be found, and he can be tracked. Even if he is so lucky that he hasn't been discovered, what will happen to the darkening after that?
Without Sarutobi Hiruzen, the 'natural' darkening teammate, wouldn't darkening Naruto cost more in the future? Therefore, a handy darkening tool like Sarutobi Hiruzen still makes him authentic, which is in the best interest of Li Yaoxiang.
…
3 days later.
The approval to leave Konoha came down. Li Yaoxiang also sold his property in Konoha.
However, before leaving Konoha, Li Yaoxiang came to Konoha's 'mission reception'. That is where Konoha Ninja was commissioned to receive the mission.
AD
Upon hearing the news, Sarutobi Hiruzen soon sent an Anbu ninja to come and ask about the situation.
"Lord-Hokage, please."
Li Yaoxiang followed the Anbu ninja again and came to the Hokage room.
Sarutobi Hiruzen sucked the tobacco pipe and asked, "I heard that you want to hire a ninja to escort you away from Konoha? What's going on? Do you have any problems?"
Li Yaoxiang bowed his head with a stern expression: "No, no no, Lord-Hokage. I haven't encountered any difficulties. I was just thinking, I have also made some savings in Konoha in these years, and before I leave, I want to give back some to the village. And I grew up so old, lived in Konoha for so long, and have never commissioned a ninja mission. Isn't that justified? Hahaha. I also want to try the experience of commissioning a ninja."
Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded, then wondered: "But… why do you call Uchiha Itachi for this mission? Do you know him?"
"Haha, Lord-Hokage, Uchiha Itachi is the genius youngster of the Uchiha Clan this generation. This news has spread throughout the village. I've never really thought about it until now. I have lived in Konoha for so long and have never met the village's genius ninja. Isn't that a joke? So, I named him. And… And…" Speaking of which, Li Yaoxiang seemed a little embarrassed. He immediately continued: "And my budget, among Konoha's many geniuses, Uchiha Itachi is the most suitable."
Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen froze. Then he laughed heartily.
It's all so clear.
Why wouldn't Sarutobi Hiruzen understand Li Yaoxiang's shyness now?
The suspicion about Li Yaoxiang was eliminated again.
As for the real purpose of Li Yaoxiang, of course, it would not be as simple as he said on the surface. Li Yaoxiang didn't feel that he had just escaped from a dangerous situation before he completely escaped Konoha one day. After all, Konoha was not alone in Sarutobi's decision.
AD
There are three main reasons why Uchiha Itachi was named to escort him.
1) Price problem
Li Yaoxiang did not have that much money to hire Jonin. In this period, among the Genin, the most cost-effective, of course, is Uchiha Itachi.
2) Security issues
Among the Genins, it was Uchiha Itachi who was really worthy of the trust of Li Yaoxiang. After all, Uchiha Itachi's character was there. Li Yaoxiang believes that Uchiha Itachi will definitely do his utmost to protect him, no matter who the opponent is.
3…
As for the third reason, it doesn't matter. After all, the third reason; Li Yaoxiang was just trying his luck.
It may or may not be what he expected. If it's not happening, it won't be a loss for Li Yaoxiang. He can just let it go.
After a hearty laugh, Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "Okay, I understand. You go through the entrustment process. I will order someone to give you the best price."
At the same time, after Li Yaoxiang left Hokage Residence. He ushered in the arrival of Uchiha Itachi.
It's just that after he heard that someone specifically named him and asked him to complete the mission, he had a little trouble.
The person at the mission reception: "Uchiha Itachi, you must know that the village rules are like this. No matter how good your results are, Genin can't go out alone to do a mission. You have to choose your teammates."
This period of Uchiha Itachi has just unlocked his Sharingan.
That is when his teammates were killed recently.
At the same time, it was also when he was disappointed with his father's attitude. Because his father, Uchiha Fugaku, didn't care about the death of his teammates at all, and he was proud that his son had opened Sharingan so early. Because of this, the temperament of Uchiha Itachi in this time became a bit cold.
"No need. I can complete the mission by myself."
The person at the mission reception desk: "But, this is completely out of the rules…."
Without waiting for the person at the task reception desk, suddenly one more person appeared in the room. This person was also wearing Uchiha Clan's standard high-necked clothing and a 3-corner protective gear.
This person was Uchiha Shisui.
Soon after Uchiha Shisui appeared, he came behind Uchiha Itachi, patted his shoulder, and then said to the person at the mission reception desk: "I and Itachi will take this mission together. It should be okay, right?"
After Uchiha Itachi saw the person was Shisui, his indifferent complexion also softened a lot: "Big Brother Shisui!"
"
"
The two looked at each other. He nodded. Then, he looked towards mission reception, waiting for his reply.
The result was very clear.
With Uchiha Shisui's lead, the people at the mission reception will not look for trouble and offend Uchiha Clan's people: "Hahaha, fine. I will submit your message here."
Two people left the mission reception. Walk side by side on the street.
….
Shisui: "Itachi, I understand how you feel. But since our companions have sacrificed their lives for you. Then we should live better. Together with their share of work. Together to protect this beautiful home. I hope you can understand this truth."
Compared to other people. Uchiha Itachi's attitude towards Shisui was obviously much better. He did not answer. But he was seriously thinking about what his Big Brother Shisui said.
Shisui did not bother anymore.
After a while, Shisui continued to say: "I will not carry out this mission with you. I will hide in the dark and observe carefully. I hope your performance will not disappoint me."
…
Early the next morning, Li Yaoxiang packed his clothes. Then he left to wait at the mission reception.
It didn't take long.
He soon saw Uchiha Itachi as a child and came here on time.
Seeing Uchiha Itachi, Li Yaoxiang immediately went up: "Looking at your clothes, you should be Uchiha Itachi? Hello, I'm your client this time, Li Yaoxiang. Pleased to work with you."
Li Yaoxiang held out his right hand and wanted to shake hands with Uchiha Itachi.
Li Yaoxiang thought he would be rejected. Instead, Uchiha Itachi really shook hands with him and thanked him kindly.
"Hello, I am Uchiha Itachi. Thank you for trusting me, and named me to take this mission. I will escort you to the destination safely."
This scene slightly surprised Li Yaoxiang.
Li Yaoxiang was familiar with the original series. But it's very clear that during this period, Uchiha Itachi, who has experienced all the deaths of his teammates, has become much colder in character. This made him wonder why Uchiha Itachi would be so friendly towards him.
"Good, good!" After a few praises, Li Yaoxiang continued, "Uh…, you're the only one?"
It was strange to see Uchiha Itachi alone.
As far as he knows, according to Konoha's rules, Uchiha Itachi, who was still a Genin, should not be able to take a mission out of the village alone.
Uchiha Itachi said with a smile: "Relax, Mr. Li. Your mission is just C-Rank's Escort Mission. I can complete it by myself. There will be no problems."
Hearing Uchiha Itachi's words, Li Yaoxiang was still a little worried. It's not that he doesn't believe in Uchiha Itachi's ability. But more concerned about a Jonin hiding in the distance, secretly protecting Uchiha Itachi the Genin.
AD
To avoid causing suspicion from others, before leaving the sight of these ninjas, Li Yaoxiang decided to continue to maintain his 'sincere' appearance.
"Hahaha! You are the genius ninja in the village. How could I be uneasy? Don't get me wrong. I'm just curious. I specifically entrusted you to accept this mission. I just want to know you more. I hope you don't mind."
Uchiha Itachi laughed, saying he didn't mind.
The reason why his attitude towards Li Yaoxiang was so friendly was that he did not want to disappoint Shisui. He knew that Shisui in the vicinity was watching him. Therefore, facing the 'customer' Li Yaoxiang, he did his best to show a friendly attitude.
After the short exchange, the two went outside the village.
…
Konoha Village, Root base.
This is underground in a hidden place in Konoha Village. All around is covered with huge roots. The air is filled with a thick humid smell of mud.
At this time, Shimura Danzo was at the base, handling some of his daily official duties.
At this moment, a Root Ninja with a cough came to Shimura Danzo and reported to him: "Cough! Cough! Cough! Lord Danzo, just now someone reported that a villager got a Third-Hokage's approval. An approval about leaving the village."
Shimura Danzo stopped his official duties. His expression became slightly angry, questioning: "Hiruzen? Is he getting older and more confused? How can he let people leave the village casually? … Who's leaving the village?"
Root ninja: "Cough! Cough! Cough! His name is Li Yaoxiang…."
Immediately after this, Root Ninja, who coughed from time to time, told him about Li Yaoxiang's message and what happened recently. Even about Li Yaoxiang commissioned ninjas to do an Escort Mission for him.
Shimura Danzo's face became gloomier after hearing it. He didn't care whether Li Yaoxiang was innocent in this matter or not. As long as there is a hint of probability that becomes an 'unstable factor', Shimura Danzo would rather kill the wrong one than let it go! Moreover, as long as Li Yaoxiang died as soon as he left the village, Konoha's people would know how dangerous the outside world is! They all won't hold the thought of leaving Konoha!
"Who took over this mission?"
"It's Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Shisui."
Hearing that these two people took the task, Shimura Danzo's face became a bit ugly. He knew very well that the two of them could not move yet. But with a little carelessness, Uchiha Clan may immediately create…
Before the village was prepared, he didn't want to take this risk.
"No need to deal with the people of Uchiha Clan. Send someone to stop them for a moment to see if there is a chance to kill that Li Yaoxiang. If you really let him escape into a city… then forget it."
The reason why there is such a choice because as long as he enters the city of Land-of-Fire, Danzo won't be able to move that easily anymore. Otherwise, it would be trouble for him if someone investigates it.
You need to know that in today's Ninja Village, even if you are qualified to be a shadow in the village, you still need the consent of Daimyo*.
[*TL notes: A daimyō (English TV: Feudal Lord, literally meaning: Great Name) is the political leader of a country. A daimyō is responsible for all decisions concerning their country, from alliances to the annual budget to the privileges allowed to the country's hidden village. Daimyō is, therefore, one of the single most important individuals in the entire country and holds the highest degree of political power, such that they are given special protection by the Allied Shinobi Forces during the Fourth Shinobi World War.]
"Cough, cough, cough. Yes!"
After leaving Konoha, Li Yaoxiang and Uchiha Itachi walked side by side on the dirt road together.
There is a jungle on both sides of the dirt road.
Naruto World's roads are terrible. As one of the richest Five Great Countries, Land-of-Fire, they don't have much idea about road construction. However, from Konoha Village until Li Yaoxiang's destination this time, the journey is said to be not long and not short.
Naruto World doesn't have cars, and they don't have rental horses. So it is estimated that this section of the road will not go too well.
It takes at least a half-day walk to arrive.
Uchiha Itachi was already used to it like nothing. But Li Yaoxiang, a modern world person, doesn't have such good footwork. So almost every hour he walked, he needed to stop and rest for a while.
At this time, they just stopped on the road to rest.
Li Yaoxiang sat on the boulder, patting his calf muscles, full of apologies: "Sorry, I'm stopping you to wait for me. I've never been outside of Konoha before. This is my first time walking a long road. Knowing this is the case, I should have rented a carriage and hurried away."
Li Yaoxiang was still the same. Dressed up as an ordinary commoner. But he was so tired that he had to stop and take a rest, which was not fake.
Uchiha Itachi maintained a shy smile: "It's okay. It's more convenient for me to protect you. If you get on the carriage, it might not be so convenient."
In order to satisfy Big Brother Shisui. Along the way, Uchiha Itachi made great efforts to show his friendly side.
Anyway, Li Yaoxiang was now a customer of Konoha. If Konoha Ninja's reputation is damaged because of his bad attitude, this is not what he wants to see.
AD
In this way, the two guys who hide their true colors have a little talk about some irrelevant topics in the journey.
Chatting and chatting.
Uchiha Itachi, who couldn't find a new topic, suddenly came to this sentence: "That's right. Is Konoha bad? Why did you leave Konoha?"
"Ahh~"
Li Yaoxiang sighed and talked about his 'parents' immediately. Then, he said he wanted to leave this sad place, go out, and take a look.
This was also the first time Uchiha Itachi talked with Konoha civilians, and the conversation was so in-depth. If Li Yaoxiang hadn't said anything, he really wouldn't realize that the commoners of Konoha, even just living in the village normally, was such a dangerous thing.
After hearing this, he couldn't help but be stunned. He felt a bit confused inside. It turns out that the village is not a paradise for ordinary people. He became quiet for a long time.
Uchiha Itachi involuntarily spoke: "What is the meaning of life?"
This sentence surprised Li Yaoxiang. He didn't expect Uchiha Itachi would ask him such a question at such a time and place. If Li Yaoxiang remembers correctly, Uchiha Itachi asks this question to several people in the original work; Uchiha Shisui, Kakashi, Orochimaru, etc.
The answer they gave will also be one of the main reasons for changing Uchiha Itachi's final decision on which side to stand. In other words, if Li Yaoxiang wants to change the fate of Uchiha's clan, he might be able to start from this aspect now.
He could try to shake Uchiha Itachi's future decisions. However, Li Yaoxiang quickly rejected this idea. Because in his plan, if Uchiha Clan was destroyed, it would be a rare incident that could help to darken Naruto.
He wouldn't change this ending because of his soft heart.
AD
"Haha! If you suddenly asked me such an esoteric question, I won't know how to answer you." Li Yaoxiang turned his head around and unloaded the topic with embarrassment.
Uchiha Itachi was also awakened by Li Yaoxiang's response. He never expected Li Yaoxiang to answer his question. After all, Li Yaoxiang is only an ordinary person in his mind. How can he understand the difficulty of ninjas? How is it possible to give an answer?
The reason why he said this question was just that after listening to Li Yaoxiang's story, he felt emotional for a while, and it just kind of happened. It was purely self-talk.
"It's fine! It's getting late. Let's go on the road." Uchiha Itachi laughed.
"Oh, oh! Okay, okay. I have enough rest. Let's go."
Just as the two were about to leave, Uchiha Itachi suddenly stopped Li Yaoxiang behind him and shouted violently in the direction of the northwest: "Who is it?! Come out!"
With that said, Uchiha Itachi took two Kunai from his pocket and threw them towards the northwest.
DING! DING!
The Kunai suddenly bounced off.
Immediately afterward, two masked ninjas came out from the shadows of the jungle: "As expected of the new generation of genius from the Uchiha clan, you discovered us so soon."
Uchiha Itachi's expression condensed: "The Root…? What do you mean?"
"It's nothing. You give us the spy behind you, and your mission will be completed. You can go back and report it. There is nothing for you here." One of the root ninjas said in a tone that could not be denied.
AD
The most intense reaction was Li Yaoxiang standing behind Uchiha Itachi. He was frightened and sat down on the ground. His face was pale: "No, no no! Lord-Ninja, is there any misunderstanding? How could I be a spy? I was born and raised in Konoha, and I've never been out of the village. I also got Lord-Hokage's approval before leaving the village!
Of course, this was just a play performed by Li Yaoxiang.
To avoid a wave of chasers in the future, which will disturb his life, he will not reveal his identity unless he is forced to do so. And he also took advantage of this opportunity to see if he could test out if there was any Jonin following Uchiha Itachi.
In case he guessed wrong and his life was threatened, isn't there still a batch of darkening points that haven't been used yet?
Seeing Li Yaoxiang's reaction, the two Root ninjas in front could not help but laugh.
Seeing this, Uchiha Itachi believed that Li Yaoxiang was just an ordinary person who was wronged. He posed in a fighting pose. Then, he turned on his Sharingan.
He took out the short blade that was equipped behind him and held it in front of him with a backhand grip and said with a serious expression: "You two are joking. I don't think my client is a spy. Both of you please go back."
"Sure enough Uchiha Clan's people are really stubborn." One of them sighed with emotion.
The two Root ninjas suddenly disappeared in place!
Immediately afterward, Li Yaoxiang's ears heard the sound of 'ding ding dong dong' constant weapons collision.
The action of double-playing fighting, as an ordinary person, he couldn't see clearly at all.
During the fight, Uchiha Itachi even slammed: "Get away from here!"
Two Chunins should be fighting Uchiha Itachi. But, with Uchiha Itachi's current level alone, it would be impossible one against two.
However, even so, there was the existence of Li Yaoxiang that cannot be ignored today.
Because in addition to seeing the body of the two parties constantly moving during the battle, and the movements of their hands in the battle were completely invisible, even the shadow cannot be seen at all.
After hearing the anger of Uchiha Itachi, Li Yaoxiang was very nervous and quickly got up from a slumped state and fled away. At this moment, he still did not forget to maintain the identity of 'Konoha commoner'.
As for his real feeling, how exactly… Hehe. He has enough darkening points.
Li Yaoxiang wasn't worried at all.
When Li Yaoxiang got up and haven't run that far, the light from the end of his eyes suddenly swept the sparks produced when the weapon collided at close range!
CLANG!
When Li Yaoxiang saw exactly what was going on, the two kunai had already been shot to the ground in front of him, plunged into the soil separately.
As expected! Things are were not so simple! Sure enough, someone followed Uchiha Itachi. Otherwise, it was impossible for someone to throw some kunai to save Li Yaoxiang.
When Li Yaoxiang raised his head, there was already an extra figure in front of him. It was a black-clothed wearing a high collar with a red and white fan pattern on the black-clothed back!
Seeing this person's hairstyle. Seeing this person's clothing. Seeing the 3-corner protector Kinoe on the costume. Li Yaoxiang knew that the person was Uchiha Shisui!
AD
On the surface, he was still at a loss, but in fact, Li Yaoxiang's heart was already secretly overjoyed… Because this is the third reason why he commissioned Uchiha Itachi to escort him!
The reason is to elicit Uchiha Shisui! The purpose is to naturally come into contact with Uchiha Shisui without being suspected!
It's just that when things have developed in this situation, his life looks as if he is completely in the hands of others. The enemy simply ignored him. And Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Shisui; apart from treating him as an 'item' to protect, they also no longer paid any attention to him.
"Damn it!"
During the battle, Uchiha Itachi unwillingly cursed. He immediately yelled, "Sorry Big Brother Shisui! I let you down!"
Uchiha Shisui, who held Li Yaoxiang behind him, although his eyes never left the enemy for a moment, his mouth responded naturally: "It's okay! You can hold back two root ninjas; that's already very good. I also didn't expect for two Root Ninjas to even intervene in this kind of thing."
"Uchiha Shisui, ignore this matter."
"The Root will not let dangerous signs out of the village."
Uchiha Shisui shook his head: "I don't know what a dangerous sign is. I only know that he is not only our client, he is also a villager of Konoha! I have an obligation to protect his safety."
After that, Uchiha Shisui also opened Three-Tomoe Sharingan.
He rushed in to fight.
…..
AD
In a moment, the two sides fought for no less than a hundred rounds.
The fighting process seemed very intense and very long.
But for Li Yaoxiang, these things happened only in a split second. He only saw the air around him has many sparks flashing. Then all kinds of weapons were bombed to the ground.
Judging from the current situation, it is Uchiha Itachi and Shisui who have the upper hand. Otherwise, they would not be able to fight while blocking all the enemy's attacks on Li Yaoxiang. If it were not for the safety of Li Yaoxiang, the battle might have ended long ago.
The Root ninjas, who were at war with Uchiha Shisui, the leader of this operation, also secretly suffered. They seriously underestimated Uchiha Itachi's strength.
They initially thought that as long as one person blocked Uchiha Itachi, the other person could attack Li Yaoxiang. But the two Chunins were not worthy for Uchiha Itachi, a Genin.
Seeing that things did not go the way they expected, the leader quickly exchanged glances with several colleagues. They planned to retreat first. When they encounter an opportunity on the way, they can start again.
It's just that his idea is doomed to impossible.
As previously stated, the reason why Li Yaoxiang chose Uchiha Itachi to protect him was that he took a fancy to his sense of responsibility and the importance he attached to the village and Uchiha Clan's reputation. Now, with the appearance of Shisui, it would be more impossible that Li Yaoxiang would have an accident.
Immediately, three of them leapt together with great tacit understanding and quit the battle.
The three looked at each other and nodded.
Immediately after a few flashes, they left the scene.
AD
The appearance of this scene made Li Yaoxiang and others who remained at the scene a little dazed. They didn't know why the Root ninjas gave up so easily.
For a moment, they did not dare to relax his vigilance. The tense mood lasted for a while.
It was found that there were no abnormalities or any traps. The tense atmosphere eased down.
Li Yaoxiang immediately acted very excited and very grateful. He held Uchiha Itachi's and Uchiha Shisui's hands and thanked both of them: "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you for saving me! Otherwise, I would really be killed this time!"
Uchiha Shisui's character and attitude were obviously much softer than Uchiha Itachi. Also, better at communicating with outsiders. He put his hands on Li Yaoxiang's hands and patted them, trying to ease Li Yaoxiang's emotions.
"You're welcome. Rest assured, as long as we are here, we will guarantee your safety. When we arrive in a town, they won't dare to mess around anymore. You should be in no danger."
"Oh! Good, good! Thank you! Thank you very much!"
…..
On the next journey.
Since his existence has been exposed, and the danger of the mission has increased, Uchiha Shisui has no plans to hide himself anymore.
Three of them headed towards the town and continued on their way.
However, after the appearance of Uchiha Shisui, Li Yaoxiang has more topics to talk about than when it was at first.
AD
He talked a lot. He looked like he found a great rare treasure. The questions one after another never stopped.
Fortunately, Uchiha Shisui's character was more patient and not bored by it. Almost everything that Li Yaoxiang asked, he answered. As a result, the relationship between the two parties has become more harmonious.
"By the way, I saw your eyes just now suddenly became red. How did this happen?"
"This is Sharingan. Only people from our Uchiha Clan can use it."
"Then… this Sharingan, is there anything special? Why must you use it when you fight?"
"Sharingan can…"
Due to the topic of conversation is not a secret matter, Uchiha Shisui was happy to answer Li Yaoxiang.
But as the topic of chatting between the two parties grew deeper, Li Yaoxiang finally asked the most critical question!
"Wow, the Sharingan of your Uchiha Clan is so powerful. Wouldn't so many people want to have it? Do you think a non-Uchiha can own Sharingan?"
This seems to be a simple-minded problem, but it hides a huge amount of information.
Uchiha Shisui laughed, did not answer. But the silhouette of Hatake Kakashi emerged involuntarily in his mind.
Seeing this situation, Li Yaoxiang not only failed to constrain, but like a second stunner, he continued to ask without a wink at all: "Since you ninjas' abilities are so weird. Say… Will there be an ability that can bring people back to life?"
When the words came out, Uchiha Shisui's walks suddenly paused!
However, he soon recovered his natural expression.
He knew the ability 'resurrect the dead' that Li Yaoxiang said.
Uchiha Clan does have this ability, which is Forbidden Jutsu 'Izanagi*'!
*TL note: With Izanagi, the user applies an illusion to reality itself, giving the user control over what is and is not real for as long as Izanagi is active. Users typically do this in order to protect themselves, negating any injuries they receive or even their deaths. When this happens, their injured self fades away as an illusion and their non-injured self immediately materialises in the previous self's place.
Izanagi is based on the Creation of All Things Technique, used by the Sage of Six Paths to turn imagination into reality. The process is explained to use spiritual energy – which forms the basis of Yin Release – to create shape from nothingness. Then, through the application of physical energy – which forms the basis of Yang Release – the shape has life breathed into it.
It is impossible for him to say this ability in front of outsiders, because this ability is like having a 'second life'. Very powerful! Very attractive! Letting people know that Uchiha Clan has this Forbidden Jutsu, may make a lot more people want to have Sharingan. Uchiha Clan's situation will only be more dangerous.
Therefore, he did not answer Li Yaoxiang.
Just nodded and smiled.
AD
But Li Yaoxiang was very interested. Though he did not continue to struggle on this issue. Because his purpose has been achieved!
That's right!
The reason why Li Yaoxiang wanted to meet Uchiha Shisui was to contact Uchiha Shisui. Its main purpose is here!
For the sake of reminding Uchiha Shisui that maybe someone has already transplanted their family's Sharingan! In order to remind him, Sharingan also has the ability of 'Izanagi'!
As mentioned before, in order to prevent Naruto from falling into the power of 'Kotoamatsukami', there are 3 solutions. And today Li Yaoxiang's purpose is to plant the fourth solution! That is, trying to influence Shimura Danzo's process of getting 'Kotoamatsukami' smoothly.
As long as Shimura Danzo does not get 'Kotoamatsukami', then he would not be able to brainwash Naruto.
Of course, it's really hard to say if the solution will work or not. After all, in order to avoid exposing his true purpose and identity, Li Yaoxiang only served as a reminder in this plan.
Whether it can succeed or not, for Li Yaoxiang, it's all the same.
After all, it was just a secret move he made while leaving Konoha.
If you can succeed, that's the best. It doesn't matter if it's unsuccessful. He won't lose anything.
In this way, after asking his own key questions, Li Yaoxiang became less like a fool along the way.
They never encountered a sneak attack again.
AD
It took about 7 to 8 hours before they arrived at their destination.
That is, Land-of-Fire's closest town to Konoha Village.
"Mr. Li, why don't we stay with you in this town for a period of time? This is to ensure your safety. I'm really sorry from before. I didn't expect Konoha to have that misunderstanding. After going back, I will definitely explain it to them! Rest assured, no one will trouble you anymore." Uchiha Shisui said politely.
"It's no problem. I also believe that Lord-Hokage will definitely return my innocence."
Shied away for a while, Li Yaoxiang still can't get rid of this enthusiastic Uchiha Shisui. He had to bear it.
In the end, the three people went to one of the unremarkable hotels in the city as a place to stay.
During this period, the enthusiastic Uchiha Shisui did not forget to care about Li Yaoxiang's future days: "By the way, Mr. Li. Don't you have any plans after leaving Konoha?"
(⊙o⊙) Li Yaoxiang cursed him in his heart. He did not show any abnormalities on the surface. "It's nothing special. Probably just going back to my old business. Open a restaurant and make a living here."
In the next few days.
The two Uchihas made an all-out effort to protect Li Yaoxiang's life.
Li Yaoxiang had no choice but to find a'ji shop' nearby, asking prices, investigating the market, and so on. He really put acting skills into his life abruptly.
Uchiha Shisui didn't want to leave until he confirmed that the Root didn't send any more people to chase him down.
AD
"Mr. Li, during this period of time, I'm very happy to get along with you. You let me understand more deeply about what Konoha commoner really needs. Although it is a pity, but we have been out for so long, it is time for us to leave."
Li Yaoxiang: "Hahahaha, it's okay, it's okay! I can understand your difficulty! I hope there will be another chance to meet next time."
In this way, the two left the small town.
And Li Yaoxiang refunded the hotel rent overnight, rented a carriage, and walked non-stop toward a more prosperous town.
At this point, Li Yaoxiang finally managed to get out of Konoha's sight!
From now on, the sky is high enough for a bird to fly through!
…
2 days later.
One of the bustling towns in the Land-of-Fire.
In a shop. The decoration and furnishings here are almost the same as Li Yaoxiang's restaurant in Konoha. Only difference here is that this shop is quite wide and can hold several tables. And Li Yaoxiang became the new owner of this shop.
Li Yaoxiang's original plan was to wait until he left Konoha safely, to remain anonymous, to be an ordinary person, and concentrate on darkening Naruto.
But when he was rewarded by the system for the first time, he found that this idea was impossible to realize. Because darkening Naruto is so hard, too hard!
AD
From the first plan, until now, he has succeeded a total of 3 times, improving Naruto's darkening degree.
This is the first time, an increase of 1.6%. That time, Li Yoaxiang was promoted because Naruto found that no matter how hard he tried, he could not make friends.
The second time, it increased by 3.0%. That time because Naruto discovered his identity, he couldn't believe Konoha's ingratitude.
The second time, it increased by 3.4%. That time, it was after Sarutobi Hiruzen made his public appearance, the villagers leave one after another and returned to their own homes, and after Li Yaoxiang's very ruthless words that crushed Naruto's beautiful vision.
Those three times add up to only 8%!
This shows how difficult it is to completely darken Naruto to 100%.
Only relying the higher-ups of Konoha, the dirty methods, the past disgusting truth, it is impossible to complete the mission of darkening Naruto. Therefore, it is clear that if Li Yaoxiang wants to completely darken Naruto, he must also make extra plans in other aspects besides Konoha!
Otherwise, it would absolutely be impossible!
Of course, he has already had a preliminary plan for the 'extra layout'.
Not to mention it now, judging from the current situation, the most important thing for Li Yaoxiang is how to deal with this batch of darkening points. Now, it can finally be used…
After everything has settled down, Li Yaoxiang turned around and came to the consciousness space.
This so-called consciousness space is actually a white space with two bedrooms and one living room. It can be said that almost everyone has such a consciousness space. The consciousness space of an ordinary person is nothing special. The doors of both rooms are open, and the ontological consciousness is the master of this space. You can go where you want to and do anything. What it means is that one's consciousness can control one's own body as much as it wants.
Abnormal people, like those with multiple personalities, have many more rooms in their consciousness space. What are closed in these rooms are their second, third, fourth, and so on.
When the main consciousness sleeps, is in a coma, or wants to escape something and does not want to face it, the consciousness space will open the door of a certain room according to different situations and different needs. At that time, the other personalities locked in the room can logically control the body of the main consciousness. The main body will therefore be completely different in its voice, personality, habits, etc. Of course, suppose there are no special circumstances. In that case, ordinary people will never be able to enter this space by their own ability.
The special ability given to Li Yaoxiang by the system is that he can enter this space at will and link his consciousness space with Naruto's consciousness space, and indirectly deposits it in Naruto's conscious space in the form of a second personality. And he can freely open and close the door in Naruto's consciousness space.
Normally speaking, Li Yaoxiang can awaken the sleeping Naruto and meet with him in the consciousness space. It's just that Li Yaoxiang did not do so. Because he didn't want to expose his identity in front of Naruto prematurely, in case Naruto bump into Li Yaoxiang accidentally. When that time comes, it will make it harder to darken Naruto.
After all, there is this impression towards him as the 'Owner of the Voice'. If Li Yaoxiang tells Naruto what he wants him to do, he will follow the instructions to do it. Therefore, over the years, Li Yaoxiang only communicated with Naruto by voice.
Also, everything that happens in the space of consciousness, in reality, is only a matter of a moment. It's like taking Naruto into the seal space last time and meeting Kyuubi and Namikaze Minato. That incident seemed to be very long. But in reality, it only happened in a flash.
And the reason why Li Yaoxiang came into this consciousness space this time was to use the darkening point. It was because the 'item' he wanted to exchange this time was really not convenient to bring out into the real world. It can be easily destroyed or found by others.
The reason why he didn't redeem it until now was because he still had a huge problem with his own safety, and he needed to keep some darkening points just in case.
The Ninjutsu Scroll that was given by Namikaze Minato and Uzumaki Kushina was, of course, also impossible to be brought to the real world. After all, it was a gift they gave in the space of consciousness.
Open the system interface.
【Host: Li Yaoxiang
Darkening Target: Uzumaki Naruto
Target Soul: 6/40
Darkening Degree: 8%
Darkening Value: 39000
Mall: Slightly】
As Naruto experienced more dark events, his soul value also grew. It took less than a month, and Naruto's soul value has increased from 5 to 6 points. This also means it will only become more difficult.
And the reward for the plan this time was a total of 46000 darkening values. He spent 7000 points to buy 'one-time Kotoamatsukami' to brain-wash Miyada Yuzai. So now there were 39000 points left.
Li Yaoxiang's first thought was not to increase his strength. Instead, he was looking for the most useful item in the Item column of the system mall! That is the crystal ball of Sarutobi Hiruzen*! The countless Naruto's fans yearn for something even in dreams!
[*TL note: Crystal Ball Jutsu. By peering into a crystal ball, the user can see the current activities of anyone whose chakra signature they know. Users can view subjects from any location, regardless of distance or potential obstructions, making it ideal for intelligence gathering. The Third Hokage uses this technique to monitor the villagers of Konohagakure and thus maintain public order.]
Of course, redeeming this crystal ball was not only to fulfill that dream. Nor was it for something unscrupulous. It was to observe the movement of everyone in the Konoha Village!
After all, Li Yaoxiang, who wanted to darken Naruto as his ultimate goal, was destined to need information as it becomes extremely important to him. This is no longer the Anime World that is full of enthusiasm.
AD
This is the real world! All people in this world have flesh and blood, their own thoughts, and their own goals—a real life.
It can be said that there are many subtle information, news, or details that are not mentioned in the original work. Coupled with Li Yaoxiang's butterfly effect, the future direction of development will become even more unpredictable.
Therefore, in order to obtain the most accurate information, as well as the various plans and trends that various important figures have changed due to the appearance of Li Yaoxiang, the crystal ball was definitely the most pressing thing that Li Yaoxiang needed at present. With the crystal ball, Li Yaoxiang's operations in terms of layout, or cooperation, or prevention would be much easier.
Not long after, Li Yaoxiang finally found this crystal ball worth 8000 points in the item column of the system mall.
Li Yaoxiang felt a little strange.
'Such a powerful thing… Is that cheap?'
He hesitated for a moment. But he redeemed the crystal ball decisively anyway.
Instantly, a crystal ball placed on a small pillow suddenly appeared in Li Yaoxiang's consciousness space.
Li Yaoxiang went to test it impatiently.
He looked at the situation in Konoha.
At the Academy… At a hot spring… At the Hokage Residence… Take another look at a hot spring… At the vegetable market … At a hot spring … At a hot spring …
"Cough! Cough! Cough!"
AD
'Not bad! The picture is quite clear.'
Li Yaoxiang finally understood why the price of the crystal ball was so cheap after switching several screens continuously. It turns out that the so-called crystal ball is actually not as powerful as Li Yaoxiang imagined.
In addition to having the person's chakra appears on the monitor, it is only within Konoha Village's area; not every place can be checked. For example, the Root base, Uchiha Clan station, Noble Clan station, etc. These places are set up with an anti-monitoring array. That's why the crystal ball has so many restrictions.
This also made Li Yaoxiang understand one thing… that is why even with the crystal ball, Sarutobi Hiruzen's plan for Shimura Danzo and Uchiha Clan's situation was not so clear.
But that's just the crystal ball of Sarutobi Hiruzen! For Li Yaoxiang, it was not a problem at all! Because he has a sufficiently powerful system! He could completely make up for this crystal ball's weakness! As long as he spends a certain amount of darkening points, he can upgrade the crystal ball!
Li Yaoxiang, not saying anything further, chose to upgrade.
It took 5000 points to upgrade. The next upgrade requires 25000 points.
After this upgrade, it covers the entire Konoha Village, including even those places where the anti-monitoring array is set up!
Li Yaoxiang was very satisfied with this. Since the most urgent item has been got.
Then the next step is to plan to improve his own strength most effectively. It was the most in line with his current interests…
There were only 26000 darkening points left.
Li Yaoxiang looked at various items in the system mall.
Rinnegan*, the price is 4010000 points.
[*TL note: The Rinnegan (literally meaning: Saṃsāra Eye) is reputed as the most exalted eye amongst the "Three Great Dōjutsu", the others being the Sharingan and the Byakugan. It is said that in times of disorder, one who wields the Rinnegan is sent down from the heavens to become either a "God of Creation" who will calm the world or a "God of Destruction" who will reduce everything to nothingness. The Rinnegan is characterized by concentric circles covering the eyeball.]
Tenseigan**, the price is 4010000 points.
[**TL note: The Tenseigan (literally meaning: Reincarnation Eye) is a dōjutsu introduced in The Last: Naruto the Movie. The movie's novelization explains that the Tenseigan can be acquired when an Ōtsutsuki is implanted with the Byakugan of a Hyūga. This combination of the two clans' Chakra transforms the Byakugan into Tenseigan. When Toneri Ōtsutsuki implants himself with Hanabi Hyūga's Byakugan, the transformation takes several days to complete. As the transformation advances, Toneri experiences increasingly painful pulsations in his eyes that subside with rest.]
Sage Mode***, the price is 4010000 points.
[***TL note: Sage Mode is an empowered state that can be entered by blending natural energy with one's Chakra, creating senjutsu chakra. Sage Mode allows users to tap into the natural force of the world, opening up new techniques to them and allowing them to power up existing ones with the new senjutsu chakra.]
Li Yaoxiang: ….
Nauseating~
It's really expensive!
But after reading the details given by the system, Li Yaoxiang felt that it is worth the money. Because these products sold by the system can be said to be of top quality, the bread contains all the capabilities of these products.
For example, if Li Yaoxiang bought Rinnegan for 4010000 points, he can use all the capabilities of Rinnegan with ease, and it would be the most powerful type.
Sage Mode is the same.
If he purchased the Senju Hashirama's Sage Mode, Li Yaoxiang could also use Wood Style.
[TL note: Hashirama Senju (Senju Hashirama) was a member of the famed Senju clan. He himself was hailed as the "God of Shinobi" for his unmatched ninja prowess. Hashirama sought peace for the shinobi world, and to that end, founded Konohagakure with his clan, his childhood friend and rival: Madara Uchiha and the Uchiha clan. He would later become the First Hokage (Shodai Hokage, literally meaning: First or Founding Fire Shadow) of Konohagakure. Although he could not achieve peace during his lifetime, his legacy and vision for the world would continue to shape the village and the entire shinobi world even after his death.]
[TL note: Wood Release (Mokuton, Viz: Wood Style) is a nature transformation kekkei Genkai, a combination of Earth and Water Release. It was famously used by Hashirama Senju. In fact, it is not known to have naturally occurred in anyone else, leading to it being regarded as impossible to use without having his cells. Because of Wood Release's power and versatility, there have been various efforts to reproduce it after Hashirama's death. Wood Release techniques are commonly affiliated with the Snake hand seal.]
It's a pity that these 'commodities' that make people drool looking at it, the current Li Yaoxiang wasn't able to think about it.
One word. Poor~
Subconsciously ignoring these temptations, He turned his attention to the commodities with relatively moderate prices.
26000 points…
26000 points…
26000 points that can buy a permanent 'A-Rank Ninjutsu'. The permanent 'A-Rank Taijutsu'. A cheaper Kekkei Genkai and so on.
[TL note: A kekkei Genkai (literally meaning: Bloodline Limit) is an anomaly of the DNA that allows the wielder to use unique techniques. A kekkei genkai's name describes both the anomaly and the resulting technique. Most kekkei Genkai is passed down between generations of a clan, an exception being Hashirama Senju's Wood Release. Likewise, most individuals only inherit one kekkei Genkai, but Mei Terumī is known to naturally possess two.]
AD
Li Yaoxiang, who was dazzled, first quit from the system mall. He started weighing the pros and cons.
First of all, Ninjutsu was not necessary. Even if he was given an 'A-level ninjutsu' for free, there still wouldn't be a drop chakra in his body anyway.
Taijutsu was also not appropriate. Even with this technique, he won't have the strength and endurance to fight. His fleshy body was too far away from ninja's.
Thinking about it. Judging from the current situation, if he wants to effectively maximize these few darkening points and maximize the benefits, he can just purchase an 'innate talent' so that he can extract the most reliable Chakra.
After all, there are already Namikaze Minato and Uzumaki Kushina's lifelong experience scroll in the consciousness space, waiting for him to dig. Just learn all the Ninjutsu inside.
Even if Li Yaoxiang no longer uses darkening points to increase his strength in the days to come, he would still be a strong person. But here comes the problem.
Innate talents are divided into S, A, B, C, D Ranks.
Innate talent like Namikaze Minato belongs to the A+ level. The price is about 25000 points.
In other words, as long as Li Yaoxiang purchase this innate talent, his training innate talent can be as powerful as Namikaze Minato's. Unfortunately, Li Yaoxiang was worried that if he redeemed this innate talent, but he still could not extract Chakra?
For his own assurance, Li Yaoxiang decided that it was necessary to exchange a Kekkei Genkai first. And this was the most economical method anyway.
Open the system store.
His eyes turned to the Kekkei Genkai column.
AD
Uchiha Clan Bloodline, the price is 2510000 points.
Hyuga Clan Bloodline, the price is 2010000 points.
Uzumaki Clan Bloodline, the price is 2010000 points.
'Fuck!'
Slightly eye-catching, but also expensive!
After retreating and begging for it, Li Yaoxiang had no choice but to pull the Kekkei Genkai column to the very bottom.
There were also Uchiha Clan, Hyuga Clan, Uzumaki Clan, and their price is ten times cheaper. That is to say, it is not as powerful as that 200,000 points. With that expensive one, he can immediately open Mangekyo Sharingan or immediately learn Eight-Trigrams Palm Mastery and so on. He will need to start practicing from scratch again with the less expensive one.
His thoughts circulate back and forth among these Kekkei Genkai.
Li Yaoxiang's eyes finally fell on Uzumaki Clan Bloodline.
After all, there is Uzumaki Clan's inheritance in the consciousness space. Perhaps he can learn the scroll easily with this bloodline? Besides, wouldn't it be easier to control Naruto's body in the future?
Therefore, for various reasons…
'Uzumaki Clan Bloodline! I choose you!'
AD
With this decision, Li Yaoxiang's mind also withdrew from the consciousness space.
….
He returned to reality, not for anything else.
Just to see what will happen to his body after purchasing the Kekkei Genkai.
-20000 points
The purchase was successful.
He waited for a while.
'Uh…'
Nothing special seemed to happen. There was no warm feeling, no pain, no nothing. The body was still his body.
Li Yaoxiang came to the restroom in the restaurant and looked in the mirror.
Still the same, so handsome, no change.
Li Yaoxiang, who still couldn't believe it, simply closed the restaurant, not doing business today.
AD
He directly moved out the seats, sat on the ground, and began to read the scroll left by Namikaze Minato in the space of consciousness. In fact, without reading the instruction in the scroll, Li Yaoxiang also knew that Chakra is refined by mental power and cells.
This knowledge, almost all Naruto's fans know. But what Li Yaoxiang needed to understand is how to extract one's Chakra.
After reading the explanation of Namikaze Minato.
Li Yaoxiang only felt that refining Chakra is really fascinating and dreamy…
Although he had already had a preliminary understanding of refining chakras as early as when he first crossed into the world of Naruto, he did not want to learn it or train to become a ninja. The real training method is really unreliable. Most of it would be just meditation.
In other words, imagine that your spiritual energy is alive. Imagine that your own cells are alive. Then, according to one's own imagination, imagine the picture of the combination of cells and mental power and slowly try to refine it until it succeeds…
Such a child's play? Somewhat helpless, Li Yaoxiang could only try according to this method.
If it really depends on imagination, Li Yaoxiang has never been afraid of losing in that department!
After all, before transmigrated, he could not less imagine…
"Ahem! Cough! Cough!"
Training start.
An hour has passed…
AD
2 hours have passed …
Cell, spiritual energy, cell, spiritual energy, combination! Combine!
About the third hour, Li Yaoxiang's body really felt strange!
He could clearly feel that a little energy that didn't exist in his body was produced in the upper part of his abdomen. The moment this energy appeared, Li Yaoxiang instantly felt full of energy!
Moreover, in addition to being full of energy, he also felt that his sense of hearing, sense of smell, and vision were much stronger! His power seemed to have grown a lot, and then there was a feeling of powerlessness.
There were also some old injuries before he came to his world, which has all been completely recovered!
It's like looking down at a cell phone all day, causing neck pain. It's like holding the mouse all year round, causing wrist and elbow pain. These troubles that had haunted Li Yaoxiang for many years were finally healed!
'What! So, this is Chakra!'
After successfully extracting Chakra, of course, Li Yaoxiang would not miss the opportunity for experience for oneself and Ninjutsu.
Unfortunately, Ninjutsu is not as easy to perform as he imagined. At his age, not only did his fingers stiff and the seal was slow, even the Chakra that was finally extracted was exhausted before he could successfully use Ninjutsu.
In desperation, Li Yaoxiang had no choice but to continue to refine. He slowly accumulated Chakra.
After practicing until he felt tired, he stops and then starts practicing hand seals. In this way, except for eating and sleeping, Li Yaoxiang repeated this process for the past two days.
He didn't open the restaurant for business either.
Li Yaoxiang has always been obsessed with the process of cultivation.
The feeling of having Chakra is really amazing!
To confirm that it was not an illusion, Li Yaoxiang did a physical strength test. The result was really verified by him.
'Not an illusion!'
In the past, he would only get up to the ground fifty times, and he would be exhausted. But since having Chakra, his physical strength has more than doubled. He continued to get up one hundred and fifty times without getting tired!
Obviously, this is the difference between an ordinary person and a ninja.
As for his body that has never been exercised, his physical fitness has also improved so much because of Chakra, not to mention those ninjas who exercise all year round. Sure enough, as described in the original work, there is a big difference between people with Chakra and people without Chakra. Just like Naruto, who was sealed by Chakra and almost like an ordinary person, there is no resistance.
AD
….
So, under Li Yaoxiang's persistence and hard work, two days passed.
Whether it is the amount of Chakra in the body or the speed of the seal, he has made very good progress. The time has come.
He stood up from the cross-sitting position. Tried the simplest Three-Style Jutsu again. His expression condensed. Both hands form a seal.
'CLONE JUTSU!'
Instantly, with the hand seal completed, Chakra involuntarily flowed out of the body and flowed to the left-hand side. Immediately afterward, this Chakra formed a phantom.
This is the phantom of a very fat Li Yaoxiang.
At the same time, because the Chakra in his body became empty, Li Yaoxiang felt tired. n You don't have to guess. It must have been too many Chakras entered during the hand seal, which caused Clone Jutsu to fail this time. However, Li Yaoxiang did not feel discouraged or lost because of it, but was very excited!
'After coming to Naruto World for so long, I can finally feel the feeling of using Ninjutsu.'
After finally experiencing for oneself, Li Yaoxiang's curiosity was greatly reduced. No longer as fascinated by it as before.
He took a break.
Li Yaoxiang began to sum up his gains in the past two days and the conclusions he had reached.
"
"
One, Chakra Reserves. The body is like a water glass. Chakra is like water. It's easy to restore chakras. Even if you don't do anything, as long as you have enough rest, your mental energy and cells will produce water by themselves until the cup is filled. Of course, if you add meditation, it will speed up the recovery. However, it is very difficult to enlarge the cup. This is definitely not an overnight matter.
Every time he expands a little bit, he has to fill the cup with water first and then use the water to expand the cup little by little. Just like meditating and refining chakras at the beginning, Only by accumulating little by little can this be done.
Two, hand seal speed. This problem is far more difficult than Li Yaoxiang imagined. What kind of Ninjutsu, Like Uchiha Itachi, that makes six seals in one second, or Ninjutsu that needs 21 hand seals to make Water Dragon Bullet in a few seconds?
'I'm bothered!'
Compared with his hand seal speed, Li Yaoxiang really didn't understand how they did it. Even if his physical fitness has improved a lot now, this is also a big problem for him.
Li Yaoxiang wanted to become stronger on his own in a short time.
Moreover, he couldn't learn all Ninjutsu.
It would be miserable if the result is inconsistent.
Therefore, either don't learn or learn as proficient as you want to learn! Learning will be of great help to your next plan!
There was no doubt that the key is the 'seal technique'.
As mentioned before, Kyuubi will be one of the links in his next plan that cannot be ignored. He must master the technique of seal and fully control Kyuubi. Whether it is for him or for Naruto or for other people, it is a crucial part.
As for the 'Flying Thunder God Jutsu' that most transmigrators choose, you don't have to rush to learn. Anyway, judging from his current situation, there was a high probability that he won't encounter any danger that requires him to escape. Moreover, even if he wants to learn it, he may fail. After all, 'Flying Thunder God Jutsu' requires a certain amount of space innate talent.
AD
After drawing a conclusion, Li Yaoxiang did not plan to continue practicing.
It was also time to implement his main plan. That is to expand the business and expand its influence through wealth, thereby intervening in the power center of the ordinary person world within the realm and intervening in the World of Daimyos!
When he was watching the anime, Li Yaoxiang always felt confused.
Why are there constant disputes in the Ninja World?
Why is there a famine in Naruto World?
Why are ninjas so powerful but have to obey the Daimyo?
You must know that Naruto World's technological level, except for having no internet, no mobile phone, and no car, is not that bad. There are also electric lights, lighthouses, running water, etc. With such a technological level, even if it is impossible to guarantee that everyone will be a big fish, it will definitely not make the World so bad!
All of the above doubts, until Li Yaoxiang transmigrated to Naruto World and came to Land-of-Fire for a long time, he finally had a certain guess, that is, this World must not be as simple as it seems on the surface!
There must be something strange!
Li Yaoxiang also firmly believed that the truth here must have important materials for darkening Naruto! Therefore, he thought of an idea to be a low-key in Ninja World and a high-key in the ordinary person world. Of course, making the business big enough to intervene the Daimyo's World seems a bit difficult, but for a transmigrator like him, Li Yaoxiang felt that it would be simple for him. With all the insights before being transmigrated and the methods of making money, Li Yaoxiang felt that he could crush anyone in this World! Including that rich "cardo(?)"!
Li Yaoxiang was confident that even if he puts most of his mind on Naruto in the next days, he could still handle this matter well! Moreover, he thought he won't fall behind in the training progress either!
After clearing his thoughts, Li Yaoxiang didn't plan to put too much mind on his body. After all, he has already observed Naruto's 'imaginary vision' through Naruto's consciousness space, and it's almost time for it to be broken.
"
"
The second step of the darkening plan; to bring Naruto to the pinnacle of life…
Konoha Village. Naruto's house.
At this moment, Naruto's small house was already filled with all kinds of thanks. There were too many people who have benefited from Namikaze Minato.
In the beginning, only the villagers came to visit, but as more and more people visited, they either thanked or apologized, etc. Seeing some of this situation, some ninjas finally felt sorry and brought 'on the surface' a thank you gift. Of course, this did not include those who were already informed.
This also led to the fact that during this time, when Li Yaoxiang left Konoha, Naruto was almost busy socializing with each and everyone who came to visit.
Although he was overwhelmed, Naruto enjoyed it. Because Naruto thought that the more enthusiastic everyone is and the more gratitude people gave to him, it meant that he became more popular.
The long-awaited days finally appeared.
And the time came on this day, the visiting crowd finally stopped. Naruto finally got the opportunity to go out for experience for himself to see his dream life.
Naruto looked solemnly across the floor; it was filled with one after another thanks. He looked inside the closet. Now the clothes in the closet were completely new—no need to wear clothes like before.
After getting a new coat at random, Naruto put it on directly. Then, he ran out. He walked on the snow in hurdles, but at this time, his pace seemed a lot joyful with a kind of impatient feeling and a big smile on his face.
Not much time passed, the playful sounds of the children, 'hehe haha', passed into his ears.
Naruto was overjoyed. He sped up to the direction where the voice came out.
What came into view was a group of children of his age who were frolicking in the snow.
AD
"Hahahaha! I want to play too! Let's play together!"
Naruto ran past with a laugh. He thought from the bottom of his heart that everyone would play with him and that they wouldn't hate him as much as before.
However, the reality is completely inconsistent with his imagination.
He laughed 'hehe' and came to everyone, waiting for everyone's warm welcome. But everyone on the scene stopped the slapstick. They stupidly stood there.
The first reaction came from the parents who took care of the children. They quickly went to the child, and dragged the child behind them, then apologized to Naruto: "Sorry, Naruto. It's getting late, and it's time for us to return."
"Yes, yes. It's been too long today, and the children are tired."
"Yeah, there's still some chores to do at home. I have to go to the market to buy food."
With the first person uttered the words. Other people follow one after another.
Naruto was only momentarily quiet and then said with a big smile completely improperly: "Hahaha, it's okay! Let's play together next time."
Witnessing everyone leaving at a hurried pace, Naruto turned around and ran happily.
Not long after, he came to a group of playful children again. He asked to play together. It is a pity that the situation at the scene was exactly the same as just now. After the parents gave various reasons, they then rushed away with the child.
"Hey~ It seems that it's a little late to go out today." He looked at everyone leaving in front of him again. The always cheerful and optimistic Naruto couldn't help feeling a little lost in his heart, but he quickly reminded himself angrily said, "It's okay! Go out early tomorrow!"
"
"
…..
Early the next morning, Naruto wanted to quickly experience the pleasure of having fun with everyone. He ran out without even having breakfast. However, the situation encountered was exactly the same as yesterday.
The child's parents said a lot of reasons and then quickly took the child away.
This was the first day. The same was true for the second day. On the third day, it became more exaggerated. Naruto could not even find the children.
At this moment, Naruto finally realized that something was wrong. Although everyone did not look at him with that kind of "disgust", they still avoided him as before.
What the hell is this all about?
'Didn't everyone give me gifts a while ago?'
'Didn't everyone already accept me?'
'Why is this still the case?'
Just as Naruto was about to be unable to accept the fact in front of him, Li Yaoxiang not only did not speak mockeries this time but also explained his confusion: "It's normal for them to have this reaction."
The appearance of the voice made Naruto calm down.
"Why? Why is this normal? Didn't everyone accepts me? Don't you hate me? Why do you treat me like this?"
Li Yaoxiang: "What they agree with is your father, not you. Don't you forget the fact that inside your body resides a demon fox? How does this allow everyone to approach you with confidence? How would they play with you feeling safe?"
Hearing that it was because of Kyuubi that caused this; at this time, Naruto became even more nervous. Because the sealed Kyuubi inside his body was not something that he can change.
"Then, what should I do? Do I have to live my old life again?"
Li Yaoxiang explained patiently: "It's very simple If you think about it. If the demon fox is not sealed in your body but sealed inside your father's body, will everyone still be like this? They won't need to worry about you."
Naruto was stunned for a moment and then was a bit embarrassed: "But… but… isn't dad dead? How do you seal the big fox to dad's body?"
"Hah…" Li Yaoxiang took a deep breath. He almost got mad by this second fool.
It seems that the 8% blackening level really cannot change how much Naruto is.
Naruto heard this 'inhalation sound', and thought that the 'Owner of Sound' would scold Naruto stupidly and other uncomfortable words. He was all ready to be scolded, but then there were no more words uttered.
Hearing that Li Yaoxiang didn't say a word for a long time, Naruto asked only weakly: "Don't tell me….. Don't tell me….. Is there really no other method other than sealing the big fox in my dad's body?"
Li Yaoxiang: "…"
Li Yaoxiang tried hard to suppress his emotions. He kept reminding himself to be calm. What is to be done now is to encourage Naruto and let Naruto reach the pinnacle of life.
Immediately, Li Yaoxiang changed his tone to coax a child for the first time: "Of course, there is a way! The reason why they are not afraid of the demon fox inside your body is because your father was the one who sealed it! They are rest assured because they recognized your father's strength. It's very simple, actually. As long as you practice hard and prove to everyone that you can be like your father and have enough ability to prevent the demon fox from harming everyone, everyone will accept you and play with you!"
AD
Naruto rekindled hope again: "Really… really?!"
Li Yaoxiang: "Of course!"
"Hahahaha! Great! Great! Then I want to train! I want to train hard! So I can prove to everyone that I will not let the big fox hurt anyone!"
Although it was just communication in his mind, hearing Li Yaoxiang said that there was a solution, Naruto couldn't help but jump in joy in reality.
It's just that, before he was happy for long, he was stunned there soon, wondering: "But… but… how do you train?"
"Naruto, please relax. I will take you to a place."
Upon hearing Li Yaoxiang's words ', please relax', Naruto was shocked for no reason in his heart: "You… you… will you take me to see the big fox again? I… I… Can I not see him? Grandpa Hokage said not to see the big fox again."
Naruto did not forget what Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others told him in the Conference Hall. Moreover, the villagers were afraid of Kyuubi, which also caused him to feel a little frightened when facing Kyuubi. However, this feeling of fear was quickly dispelled by Li Yaoxiang.
Because compared to other people, Li Yaoxiang was undoubtedly more worthy of trust by Naruto. "Naruto, do you believe me?"
Hearing this, Naruto only reacted an 'um!' without the slightest hesitation.
No matter who it was or what he said, as long as the 'Owner of Voice' insisted on letting him do one thing, he would do it without hesitation! Because the "Owner of Voice" was his only relative in this world.
Naruto immediately relaxed his mind and let Li Yaoxiang take him to another place.
…
After a while. In the consciousness space.
AD
Li Yaoxiang opened the door without permission. He came to Naruto's room.
At this time, Naruto in the consciousness space lay there motionlessly. However, his breathing was very steady.
This is also the normal state of everyone in the consciousness space. If there is no special reason, it will never be possible to wake them up. And the reason why Li Yaoxiang chose to bring Naruto to meet here this time was that it was related to his third-step plan to darken Naruto, not to mention it now.
'That's it'.
Li Yaoxiang walked in front of Little Naruto.
Poke his round face.
Did not wake up…
Poke again!
Did not wake up…
Poke again!
An impatient Li Yaoxiang pulled his nose this time!
"Ahhhhhhhh!" Naruto in the consciousness space covered his nose. Then, he bounced up, "Who?! Who?! Which scoundrel pulled my nose!"
AD
Take a look at left and right!
In the end, his eyes fell on a handsome big brother. Ignoring the environment at this time and why he appeared here, he vigorously walked over to the handsome big brother, pointing at him and screaming: "You! You pulled my nose right?!"
Li Yaoxiang ignored Naruto's scolding.
Getting along for a few years. Taking care of Naruto for several years. This was the first time Li Yaoxiang has close contact with Naruto. He squatted down. He smiled softly at Naruto: "What's wrong? Don't you even recognize me?"
Hearing the voice, Naruto, who was very angry because of the pain on his face, became enlightened on the spot!
He pointed at Li Yaoxiang: "Is… Is… Is… Is it you?"
Li Yaoxiang's voice- for Naruto, it's impossible to forget even if he dies!
But he really couldn't believe that he and the "Owner of Voice" would meet one day!
He didn't think that the 'Owner of Voice' is more than just a sound. That's great.
But this idea just passed away in a flash, so he didn't dare to think about it again. Because he was afraid that the greater his hope, the greater his disappointment.
Because of this, when Naruto saw Li Yaoxiang's real face and made a sound that he was too familiar with, he did not forget to confirm. He was afraid of everything in front of him that it was just a dream that he had imagined. And this dream will soon end, and it will soon be broken.
Li Yaoxiang stroked Naruto's messy yellow hair and nodded. Then, Naruto's tears couldn't help streaming. He swarmed him! Holding Li Yaoxiang tightly!
AD
He was afraid that Li Yaoxiang would suddenly disappear.
And Li Yaoxiang also involuntarily shed a tear because of Naruto's action.
Truthfully speaking, he has been in the Naruto World for many years, trembling with fear for years. However, this was also the first time Li Yaoxiang really felt the feeling of having a loved one waiting for him to 'go home'.
Naruto was his only relative in Naruto World. The feelings of both parties are so sincere.
After wiping the tears and clearing up his mood, Li Yaoxiang broke apart Naruto's hands tightly around his neck: "Okay, okay. It's not that we won't see each other again."
Li Yaoxiang's tears were gone. The mood calmed down.
But Naruto was still crying in tears. Holding Li Yaoxiang's clothes, he didn't let go. "You… are real? Are you real? Are you real?"
Li Yaoxiang put his hands on Naruto's cheeks and wiped the tears on Naruto's face with his thumb: "Fool, how old are you to still cry? Of course, I am real! Rest assured, we will have many opportunities to meet in the future."
Naruto sniffed a few snots and said with a cry: "Why call me stupid again? Can you stop scolding me stupid again?"
Li Yaoxiang smiled softly: "As long as you are not stupid, I will stop calling you stupid. Okay, stop crying. Quickly wipe your tears. I brought you here this time to teach you to become stronger."
He initially thought that as long as Naruto heard the word 'become stronger', he would stop. But Naruto didn't want to. Compared to becoming stronger, compared to making friends and playing with others, Naruto cared more about Li Yaoxiang. Since he was sensible, he has been accompanied by this 'Owner of Voice'.
Naruto looked forward with hope: "What's your name? What should I call you?"
AD
Li Yaoxiang was also confused by Naruto's question. He really didn't think about this problem. But he said quickly, "Just call me big brother."
Naruto was overjoyed. He stammeringly said: "I… I really… Can I really call you big bro?"
Li Yaoxiang nodded.
After receiving a positive response from Li Yaoxiang, Naruto immediately turned around, jumped, danced, and cheered. "Great! Great! I also have a big brother! I am not an orphan! I'm not alone! I have a big brother! I have a big brother!" Hopping and jumping.
Naruto took Li Yaoxiang's hands again and continued to jump. Until finally, Li Yaoxiang was tightly hugged again in his arms and murmured: "Big brother, don't leave me alone anymore, okay?"
The three-year-old Naruto…
This was the Naruto that Li Yaoxiang has taken care of for 3 years since he was a baby.
Li Yaoxiang did not answer or refuse. But his right hand naturally patted Naruto's back, as if telling Naruto that; rest assured, the big brother will not leave you…
