Chapter 53 Main Mission 3: Sasuke's Defection Mission
After the eyes were upgraded, Zhenyan's pupil power was further enhanced, and his ability to perceive space was also enhanced.
Zhenyan stood outside the ruins and tried to use his pupil power to open the barrier.
Different from Obito's whirlpool-style door opening, the door opened by Shingon was square, with each piece shaped like a mosaic.
Obito was not very surprised to see Manabu's spatial ability. After all, his cognitive bottom line had been broken through by Manabu several times before, and Obito thought he could remain calm.
However, Obito found that he still underestimated Manabu, because he could never have imagined that Manabu entered the ruins just to walk away the Ten-Tails?
Yes, Shingon released the Ten-Tails and let it run wild in the ruins, and even said that if pets are often locked up at home, they will destroy the house, and letting them out for a walk from time to time is the scientific way to raise them...
Of course, where pets walk, there will inevitably be some marks left by them. After Shingon left with the Ten-Tails, a large amount of the Ten-Tails' chakra remained in the entire ruins.
The Ten-Tails' chakra contains extremely violent energy. When Namikaze Minato returned to the ruins to explore again, he opened a gap. Before he entered, he felt the pressure from an unknown force.
Where does this power come from? Who has entered the ruins? Have aliens really appeared? Is it related to the mysterious masked man who stopped him and Jiraiya last time?
For a moment, Minato Namikaze thought about a lot of things, but there was no answer to every question.
This sudden accident made the hesitant Minato Namikaze make a decision in an instant.
In the end, Minato Namikaze decided to continue leaving the village to investigate the alien ruins, the masked man who suddenly appeared before, and things related to the mysterious organization.
As for the next candidate for Hokage, after discussion, Konoha decided to let Jiraiya find Tsuna who was traveling abroad.
The matter of the Hokage was finally settled, and the village held a memorial service for the Third Hokage.
On the day of the memorial service, all the ninjas of Konoha Village changed into black mourning clothes, each holding a white chrysanthemum in their hands, and stepped forward one by one to pay tribute to the Third Hokage who sacrificed his life to protect the village.
Although Shingon is not a ninja, he was also in the memorial team. However, unlike the ninja, he did not offer white chrysanthemums, but a cup of sugar-free bubble milk tea.
Before the Chunin Exam, he went to discuss milk tea with the Third Hokage and said that he would make a cup of sugar-free milk tea for him.
But after that, the Third Hokage never went to the milk tea shop because of the preparations for the Chunin Exams.
And this cup of sugar-free milk tea was not delivered to the Third Hokage until today.
Shingon looked at the kind old man in the photo, and suddenly remembered the first time he met the Third Hokage. At that time, he had just come to the Ninja World and wanted to know about the situation in the village. When he saw the leisurely old man walking towards him, he stepped forward and asked, "Master, are you happy?"
The Third Hokage replied: "It is a great pleasure for me to see children like you grow up healthily in the village."
After learning about the Third Hokage's identity as the village chief, Shingon thought that the above words were official talk, but later, after understanding it, he found that the Third Hokage might not have been perfect in some aspects, but the words he said to him at the time were the truth.
It was precisely because of those sincere words that Zhenyan took out the cup of sugar-free pearl milk tea in front of him.
The memorial service for the Third Hokage is over, Namikaze Minato and Kushina go deep into the ruins to investigate again, and the main mission of the Chunin Exam also ends here, with the final deviation rate being no more, no less than 10%.
The inspiration system felt frustrated, but soon its frustration turned into heartache and fluctuating heart rate, because the deviation rate was 80% at the beginning of the new main mission.
The spiritual system felt that it was also a system that had experienced many storms, but when it saw the 80% deviation rate again, it couldn't help choking up. Why was its life so difficult?
[Don't worry.] The mantra comforts the inspiration system, [Tell me the task content first, and I will find the reason.]
The voice of the spiritual system was weak and powerless: [Main Mission 3: Uchiha Sasuke defected.]
[Hmm?] Zhenyan blinked and confirmed with the system again, [What was the new main quest you just mentioned?]
[The new main storyline mission is Uchiha Sasuke's defection.] The spiritual system repeated it again.
Mantra: […………]
[Why did Sasuke defect?] Shinon felt that this development was unreasonable.
[In the comic author's imagination, Uchiha Sasuke would defect from Konoha to seek power in order to avenge his brother.]
Mantra: […………]
[This is the plot related to the previous mission 2...] The spiritual system suddenly stopped talking here, because it suddenly realized that the current deviation rate is likely to be a hidden danger left over from the previous mission 2...
After realizing this, the spiritual system quickly said: [Host, you must quickly fill in the loopholes in the mission, otherwise the deviations will become larger and larger later...]
[Hmm... Can you tell me where Sasuke is going first? ] Shingon asked the system.
【Otonagakure Orochimaru.】 Said the spiritual system.
Hearing that it was an acquaintance, Zhenyan smiled and said, "Leave the rest to me."
In Shingon's view, defecting means leaving the village, and pursuing power means going to study, and the two together mean that Sasuke is going to study in Sound Village.
It just so happens that Shingon also has something to ask Orochimaru, so when the time comes, we can arrange for Sasuke to study abroad at the same time.
Previously, Shingon wanted to ask Orochimaru to help make eye drops to relieve eye fatigue, but Orochimaru was busy preparing the invasion plan of Konoha at that time, so Shingon had no way to contact him.
Now that Orochimaru has shown up, maybe he can try to contact the Akatsuki organization again.
Shingon went outside the village and asked Baizetsu to help pass on the message. When he came back, he saw Kakashi waiting outside his door.
"What's the matter?" Zhenyan asked.
"It's Naruto." Kakashi said.
Before the Chunin Exam was interrupted, Naruto chased Gaara from the Sand Village and they fought outside the village. Later in the fight, the One-Tail from the Sand Village went berserk, but was eventually stopped by Naruto and the Nine-Tail.
Many people saw the battle between Shukaku and Kurama. Originally, the Nine-Tailed Fox was a nightmare for the villagers of Konoha, but this time, the Nine-Tailed Fox and Naruto protected the village together.
In addition, with the Fourth Hokage returning to take charge of the situation, there are many rumors in the village. There are rumors that the Fourth Hokage sealed the Nine-Tails into his son's body. The Fourth Hokage protected the village back then, and now the Fourth Hokage's son is protecting the village again.
Overnight, Naruto had two more labels: the son of the Fourth Hokage and the hero who protected the village.
This sudden change made Naruto very confused.
Kakashi is not good at speaking, and he doesn't know how to enlighten Naruto, so he comes to find Shinon.
After hearing what Kakashi said, Shingo came to see Naruto.
"What are you thinking about?" Shingon asked Naruto who was daydreaming on the sofa.
Naruto turned his head blankly, until Zhenyan walked to the sofa and sat down, his eyes gradually focused on Zhenyan: "Brother Zhenyan..."
Shingon looked at Naruto and waited patiently for his answer. Naruto frowned, which was rare for him. He asked, "Brother Shingon, is the Hokage a hero?"
Naruto had a feeling that the change in everyone's attitude towards him did not seem to be because he and Kurama defeated Shukaku.
Naruto heard more people calling him "the son of the fourth generation" than "a hero".
It seems that, because he is the son of the Hokage, he can become a hero.
Naruto's goal has always been to become a more powerful ninja than Naruto. He does not aim to become Hokage, but to surpass Hokage. He does not take his father as a role model, but to do better than his father. This behavior may seem rebellious, but it is Naruto's resistance to fate.
No matter what Minato Namikaze and Kushina did, whether it was to protect their families, their villages, or the entire ninja world, for Naruto, the "lack of companionship" is a fact.
This lack is imperfection for Naruto. He thinks his father is not perfect enough, so his dream is to become a ninja more powerful than Naruto. He just wants to achieve the perfection that his father cannot do.
But now, the Third Hokage who died for the village is a hero, his father the Fourth Hokage who is often away from home is also a hero, and in the mouths of others he is "a son worthy of being the Fourth Hokage."
Naruto couldn't answer whether Hokage was a hero or not.
Just like his explanation of Black Shadow's identity in the forum, he is just an ordinary person. Although he has contributed to the construction of the village, it is because he stands from the perspective of ordinary people and can better understand their demands.
Zhenyan didn't know what the hero's perspective was.
But he knew that Mingren was different. Mingren was the protagonist, and the path the protagonist had to take was destined to be full of ups and downs.
Shingon reached out and touched Naruto's head. He said, "Is the Hokage a hero? Brother Shingon will take you to see the real Hokage and let them answer this question."
The education of children must be taken seriously. Shingon decided to take Naruto to meet the previous Hokage. He also wanted to meet the Hokage, especially the first Hokage, because he had not yet obtained the authorization for Wood Release.
If you want to meet the previous Hokage, you need to meet Orochimaru, which is also what Shingon has to do, so they just happen to do it together.
After returning home, Shingon met Sasuke.
Shingon knew that under the current circumstances, the formal study abroad procedures in Konoha might be a little difficult to handle, but since Itachi had entrusted Sasuke to him, he would never let Sasuke become a traitor no matter what.
The difficult study abroad procedures can be dealt with later. Now he needs to ask for the opinions of the parties involved.
Shingo sat next to Sasuke and looked at Sasuke who was even quieter than usual.
Sasuke has been like this since the Chunin Exams, and like Naruto, he seems to have something on his mind.
Shingon guessed something, and he asked, "Sasuke, there is an opportunity to study abroad in Otogakure, do you want to go?"
"Otone Village?" Sasuke frowned in confusion.
"There is a Orochimaru in Otogakure, he is very powerful." Shingon said.
"Is it the snake that Naruto and I chased away last time?" From Sasuke's tone, he didn't seem to be interested.
When the Fourth Hokage came back, he investigated the Chunin Exam incident, and found out that Naruto and Sasuke were attacked by a giant snake in the Forest of Death, and it was Orochimaru who did it.
Shingon also watched the exam in the Forest of Death on the forum. Orochimaru’s performance was indeed not very good, but every profession has its specialties, and Orochimaru’s greatest ability is scientific research.
If the ninja world wants to develop in the future, it will inevitably have to keep pace with technology, so it is better to send some talents over to learn now.
"Sasuke, have you ever heard that science and technology are the primary productivity, and combining science and technology with chakra is super productivity." Shingon said, "Orochimaru is doing research in this area."
Sasuke: “…………”
Sasuke kept frowning, looking very troubled. After a long while, he finally spoke: "Brother Shingon..."
"Hmm?" Shingen looked at Sasuke in confusion.
"Um..." Sasuke hesitated, "Is Naruto's power also scientific and technological?"
Before, Sasuke watched the battle between Naruto and Gaara and was a little stimulated. His goal has always been to become stronger and surpass Itachi, but now, he found that Naruto, who had been keeping pace with him, seemed to have suddenly surpassed him and walked ahead.
Shingen was stunned for a moment before realizing what Sasuke was asking.
Kurama is considered a living organism, and biology is a type of natural science, so Naruto's Nine-Tails mode can be attributed to biological science technology.
It’s just that the resources of the tailed beasts are limited, and now all nine tailed beasts have owners. However, biological science and technology are not limited to the tailed beasts. There are many things worth studying in the ninja world, such as Uchiha’s Sharingan.
Shingon has always felt that the Uchiha's method of opening their eyes due to stimulation was like a folk remedy. He believes that there should be a more scientific method of opening and upgrading the eyes.
Just like his eyes can be upgraded through the Ten-Tails, Shingon thinks that a research topic can be established, named "Opening and Upgrading of Sharingan", and let Orochimaru take Sasuke to study it.
As for the teacher's ethics of Orochimaru, Shingon decided to observe him after meeting him. If he was hopeless, he would use his mouth to help Orochimaru improve his level.
"Naruto's Nine-Tails Mode is a form of biotechnology." Shingon answered Sasuke's question, "And there is more than just biotechnology. Our Uchiha's Sharingan is also very powerful and can open a Gundam."
Before, Shingon and Itachi went to various ninja villages to collect debts from the tailed beasts, and Itachi had used Gundam Warrior once.
"What is Gundam?" Sasuke was unfamiliar with the word.
"Uh..." Shingon scratched his head. Itachi told him that it was a kind of ability of the Mangekyō Sharingan, but he forgot his real name and only remembered Gundam Warrior...
"It's similar to Naruto's giant fox, a very tall armored warrior." Zhenyan explained.
Sasuke's eyes lit up: "Brother Shingo, I want to study abroad!"
