Chapter 542 Fateful Encounter
In the blink of an eye, three years have passed. During these three years, after the purge during the Nine-Tails Plan, the ninja world has become much more peaceful. Thanks to the powerful Konoha, the major powers are extremely harmonious and there is no friction.
Only the area where small countries stand together tells the essence of the ninja world.
Three years is neither long nor short. If it is long, Naruto is only three years old. With the bloodline of the Uzumaki clan, he is barely able to practice physical skills.
It’s not short, but it’s not too short. Kakashi has successfully mastered the "instinct" of the mirror, and through the copying function of the mask, he has made a name for himself as a copy ninja, just like in the original work, and is hailed as the next god of ninjutsu!
Of course, those who are familiar with Kakashi know that what he is really good at is not the tens of thousands of ninjutsu, but his superb swordsmanship!
At present, there is almost no one in the entire Konoha who can surpass him in pure swordsmanship, including veteran ninjas such as White Fang and Mito. Even Shiro, if he does not project the treasures of those sword masters, is still not as good as him in swordsmanship.
However, these were all taken for granted in the eyes of Shiro and the others, because Kakashi had invested a terrifying amount of energy and resources in it. With his talent, it was actually normal to achieve such results.
What really surprised Shiro and the others was Kakashi's development of Raikiri, which further strengthened the connection between Lightning Release and Space-Time Ninjutsu. It not only greatly shortened the preparation time of Space-Time Raikiri, but also further expanded it.
Originally, Space-Time Raikiri could only cut through space, making techniques like Kamui ineffective, but now, when Kakashi used the Chidori Style technique in Space-Time Raikiri, he could even travel through space under the entanglement of this special lightning technique!
At first, Shiro was worried that Kakashi might accidentally use some forbidden technique to hurt himself, so he specially checked his technique and found that there was still a lot of room for expansion and optimization, just like a secret technique!
And it is a relatively complete secret technique!
In other words, Kakashi alone accomplished in four or five years what other families took several generations to accomplish!
In the past, Shiro would only marvel at Kakashi's talent, but now he has a deeper feeling.
In addition to Kakashi, Shisui and the other three have also made quite a name for themselves. Shisui can now skillfully use the Mangekyō, and Azuki's body can barely bear the burden of the Mystic Eye, so it can at least be classified as a conventional means.
As for Souji, all we can say is that this world is ultimately about fate. Although he has made great progress under Shiro's care and was promoted to Jonin with his superb swordsmanship and combat experience, that's all.
Souji's potential has been almost exhausted. Swordsmanship is something that requires talent. Someone with exceptional talent, like Kojiro, can achieve the realm of Sword Saint in about a month, but someone without talent...
Fortunately, Souji has a good character and accepted this fact calmly.
However, rather than saying that Souji accepted this fact, it would be better to say that this has greatly achieved his original goal. After all, he was born a commoner, and his original goal was just to become a special jonin.
The others also embarked on their own life paths. It is worth mentioning that Uzumaki Kazuki, who was rescued by Shiro and others, also found her other half in the village.
A year after their marriage, they gave birth to a little girl, which made Uzumaki Tetsugu very disappointed. In fact, what disappointed Tetsugu even more was that Shiro did not end up with Xiangyue.
According to the normal routine, a hero saving a beauty is the best way to win her heart. Unfortunately, in order to ensure the efficiency of the mission, Shiro did not leave a very good impression on Xiangyue, so there was no beginning, and naturally there was no ending.
Of course, Xiangyue’s current ending is not bad either.
As Shiro expected, the little girl's name did not change, just like the other cockroaches, and was still called Karin as in the original book.
So sometimes Shiro is really curious, what is He trying to do?
By converging world lines so frequently, wouldn't it just be a favor to others in the end?
But this is just Shiro's guess. Maybe there is some deeper meaning in it. He is not yet able to get involved in that area.
In the past three years, Shiro did not devote his time to magic research as madly as before. One reason was that there were more things in life that were worth him putting aside his research to experience.
Another important reason is that his important research has been basically completed, and the preparatory work for the plan agreed with them has also been completed. Now he just has to wait for them to take action.
In the first year of these three years, Shiro completed the transformation of the chakra meridians in his body into magic circuits. Now, with the assistance of the system, he has strengthened his magic power to level A. The rest is no longer a rush.
Therefore, in the past three years, what Shilang did most was to sit on the rooftop, quietly looking at the sky and analyzing the world!
In Shiro's opinion, this is much more interesting than those magic studies. Although he often cannot analyze any useful information after a whole day, he always enjoys it.
And as time went on, he discovered that the useless information he analyzed every day was not really useless. When a large amount of useless information was piled together, it seemed to be sublimated and always brought him unexpected gains.
Although it is not as good as analyzing the effect of the Wheel of Suppression in Unlimited Blade Works, the difficulty is relatively much lower and much easier.
"Uncle Silang!"
Hearing Naruto's voice, the blue light in Shiro's eyes faded and he turned around with a smile on his face, "Naruto, are you done with boxing practice today?"
"Well, so Uncle Silang, take me out to play. There are so many people on the road today!"
Looking at Naruto's expectant face, Shiro smiled helplessly and lowered his head silently: "Okay, let's go, where are we going?"
"Great! I want to eat ramen! Ramen ramen ramen~" After getting Shiro's consent, Naruto jumped excitedly and ran towards Ichiraku Ramen Restaurant.
Seeing this, Shilang kept shaking his head. It is said that what you cannot get is the best.
Compared with the original, Naruto is in a much better situation now. He can basically eat whatever he wants on the street. Sometimes he doesn't even need to buy it, because others will give it to him.
There's nothing he can do about it, who made him have a Hokage dad?
Of course, Naruto wouldn't normally accept that, as his favorite was still ramen, the ramen that Kushina restricted him from eating.
This story begins when Shiro took Naruto to eat ramen for the first time.
That day, Shiro tutored Naruto on the basics of chakra for the whole day, and took the tired Naruto to Ichiraku Ramen for dinner. As a result, Naruto, who had never eaten ramen before, was immediately amazed by its deliciousness.
Then I ate ramen for a whole week.
After that, Kushina forbade him to eat ramen, and he could only eat it occasionally when he was training with Shiro. Therefore, as time went by, Naruto actually liked ramen more.
Therefore, he couldn't understand whether Naruto's behavior could be considered as a correction force. Anyway, there was no harm in it at the moment. Naruto would not turn against him over a bowl of ramen. Well, this little bastard might really turn against him over a bowl of noodles!
He shook his head and put aside the chaotic thoughts in his mind. This is the bad thing about analyzing the world. It is easy to get confused in the mind afterward because there is too much junk information.
"Hey, Uncle Shiro, look." Suddenly, Naruto, who was walking in front, fell back, tugged at Naruto's clothes, and pointed in a direction stealthily.
"What's up?" Shiro looked over curiously, "Hey, Itachi, long time no see."
"Hmm?" Itachi was startled, and quickly put Sasuke down from his back, walked over and bowed respectfully, "Shiro-senpai."
"Well, it's break time now, no need to be so reserved. Naruto, what's wrong?" Shiro looked down at Naruto who was pulling at his clothes.
"Hey Uncle Shilang, do you know them?"
"Well, this is Uchiha Itachi, the younger brother of my student. This is Itachi's younger brother, Uchiha Sasuke. He's a little older than you. We should be classmates in the future. You should get along well."
"No way, you still need someone to carry you when you're this big, it's like you're still breastfeeding, huh!" Naruto tilted his little head with a look of disdain on his face.
Sasuke blushed and glared, "Who are you calling unweaned? This is a display of our brotherly love, you yellow-haired hedgehog!"
"Who are you calling the yellow-haired hedgehog?"
"I'm talking to you! Yellow-haired hedgehog!"
"Damn it! Is your hair okay? Hedgehog-head baby!"
"Yellow Hedgehog Head!"
"Hedgehog-head baby!"
"Senior Shiro, this..." Seeing Sasuke and Naruto arguing, Itachi frowned and looked at Shiro.
"Hahaha, it's okay. You're just kids, so be lively. By the way, have you eaten? If not, I'll treat you to ramen."
"Okay, then thank you, Senior Shiro." Itachi wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he realized that he had some questions to ask Shiro, so he agreed after hesitating for a moment.
"Naruto, stop arguing and go eat your noodles first."
"Sasuke, you too."
"I understand." X2
"Don't imitate me!" X2
"Who would imitate you! Yellow-haired hedgehog head (hedgehog head baby)!" X2
"Hmph!" x2
