Chapter 128 Everyone is different



With the amazing performance of the omnipotence potion in the missions, even if we don't consider the ability to activate cell omnipotence, which has not yet been exposed, as a powerful wartime recovery potion, it is already a rare good thing. If it weren't for the almost visible and well-known side effects that consume cell vitality and thus shorten lifespan, I don't know how many people would have snatched it. With Shuimu's current status, he is not qualified to monopolize such a strategically valuable thing.

However, just like what Mizuki said in front of everyone the day before yesterday, it would be best if it could be concealed. If it really couldn't be done, what would it matter if a little was revealed? No one could do it anyway. If they couldn't even pass the chakra control test, how could they talk about cell-level operations? At present, it seemed that they would have to wait until Tsunade came back to be qualified to discuss this topic with Mizuki. Even with Haruno Sakura's current level, it was still a little bit behind.

Therefore, even if he loses everything he has now, Shuimu has the confidence to earn it back. As long as he and Xiaochun are fine, he can give up everything else. When his research results can feed back and greatly improve his strength, things will be easy.

Although many memories of the previous life have faded away with the passage of time, I can still remember that there are not many days like now when I was an adult and someone cooked for me. Xiaochun's cooking is delicious. To be more precise, it is because she has been with Mizuki for so long that she is familiar with Mizuki's taste and has always cooked what Mizuki likes. Sushi, especially assorted sushi, has always been Mizuki's favorite. Although she didn't dislike other stews, curry, etc. before, she loves them now. In fact, it is more of a preference in the previous life.

Having lived two lives, Shuimu once wondered why he was Shuimu instead of traveling through time and space to become someone else. If I had to guess, Shuimu thought it was probably because of the fit between their personalities and spirits. The difference is that one was born in a peaceful era, and has smoothed out his edges due to his experience of the world; the other was born in a war, lost in his desire for power, and the gap between expectations and reality magnified the dark side of his personality, making him jealous, inferior, arrogant, conceited, and self-righteous, but indifferent to the people and things around him.

However, living in this crazy world, even in the relatively peaceful Konoha, there is no guarantee that everyone's mental will is so strong. Just like Mizuki now, if he didn't have this extremely powerful God's perspective and the sense of superiority as a time traveler, it would be hard to say whether he would perform better than Mizuki.

In the past few months of Shuimu's travel, he no longer thought of other people as low-IQ NPCs. In this world full of outstanding people, he was not special. The more he understood, the more he was in awe of those high-ranking figures. They were the trendsetters of this world, and he was not yet at that level.

However, one thing that is better than the original Shuimu is that the outlook on life formed by the huge amount of information in the previous life has guided Shuimu to a certain extent to find what he really cares about. Looking at his fiancée who was cleaning in the kitchen, Shuimu felt a sense of peace in his heart.

"Humans are indeed social creatures. They need each other, reliance and understanding to survive."

In Shuimu's view, everyone born into this world tries hard to live in this world with innate shackles.

"If you are the shackles that keep my life from going off track, then I am really lucky."

Since crossing over, when I open my eyes every morning, the first thing that comes to my mind is how to deal with the world-destroying crisis that is only a few years away. The huge pressure is too uncomfortable when I can't tell anyone about it. This is not a fantasy game in a fake world, but a real crisis that I and my loved ones need to face. Rely on Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke? Under the influence of the butterfly effect, Shuimu can no longer imagine what will happen in the future. He can only make some rough guesses based on the information in his memory and the current situation. What kind of intelligence advantage of foresight, except for the grasp of the general direction, most of the other things can no longer be relied on.

Especially in the past few days, during the Chunin Exam, Orochimaru's plan to collapse Konoha made him rack his brains, and in the encounter with Deidara and Scorpion, he lost most of his remaining life. This sense of imminent crisis made the ordinary white-collar worker who was just barely knowledgeable and learned a lot of useless knowledge in his previous life feel at a loss. Occasionally, Mizuki would think that if he couldn't let me live well, he might as well make a bunch of disposable Samsara eyes and blow the world into pieces, or make a super deadly virus or bacteria, and create a plague to destroy the world, and die together. However, most of the time, this idea is just a complaint when he is in a bad mood.

"Xiaochun is still in this world. For this reason, it is worthwhile for me to work hard..."

Moreover, dealing with so many people these days, these relationships cannot be easily erased.

"What are you thinking about?" After packing everything up, Xiaochun asked the dazed Mizuki.

"Nothing, everything is packed?" Shuimu, who was awakened, replied.

"Well, it's still early. What are you going to do later?"

"Let's go out for a walk. It feels like we haven't been out together for a while."

"Are you confused?" Xiao Chun smiled, "The village is under curfew at night. I guess everything is about to close. Where can I go to shop?"

"Oh, right..." Shui Muyi stroked his forehead and said awkwardly, "It seems like there's nowhere to go, so I'll just take it home..."

"That's fine." Xiaochun said, "You don't like reading novels or watching TV. You haven't watched them at all recently."

"You're tired of it, right?" Having been deeply influenced by the information explosion and the vast amount of knowledge in his previous life, and having watched countless works, how could he be interested in such inferior stories and boring movies and TV shows in the ninja world? If it weren't for the desire to get some extra information from it, Mizuki wouldn't even touch it.

"That's perfect. We can have a good conversation." Xiaochun picked up a book on the table that she didn't know what it was about, flipped through it casually, and said, "Our wedding is only a little over a month away, Shuimu, how should we arrange it?"

"Well, that's true, but it's really not a good time!" While the villagers are quietly licking their wounds and recovering, many people are immersed in the grief of losing their loved ones. It is really not appropriate to hold a grand wedding now.

"Let's postpone it." Xiaochun said regretfully.

"Don't be impatient." Mizuki shook his head, "Let's wait for the Fifth Hokage to confirm before we take a look at the situation."

"Okay." Xiaochun nodded and agreed. For now, this is the only way, take it one step at a time, and mainly because there are still many unresolved issues on Mizuki's side that need to be properly resolved. Among them, waiting for Tsunade to come back is the top priority. After Tsunade succeeds as the fifth generation, many problems can be solved. Of course, whether it will be the beginning of another huge trouble, we will see when the time comes.

Just as Mizuki and his fiancée Chie Tsubaki were enjoying a rare leisure time, in a secret dark room in Konoha Village, two advisors frowned as they watched Deidara, who was bound in a sick box and whose chakra was sealed.

"In other words, there is no danger to life anymore?" asked Utane Koharu.

"Yes." A uniformed medical ninja replied, "There's nothing wrong with his body. His coma is just a sequelae of his severe injuries. He will wake up in three days at the latest."

"This is the situation." Mitomon Yan asked the figure lazily leaning against the door behind him, "Do you have anything to say?"

The other important figure in the secret room was Jiraiya, who had just returned to the village.

"I figured it out when I saw his outfit..." Jiraiya replied to Mito Kadokome En, "It's them, it seems this organization has officially started its activities."

Although the black-based red-cloud imperial robe had been tattered by fire and explosion and had long lost its original appearance, some clues could still be seen.

"Jiraiya, as you know, this person's identity is a bit special. We can't use methods that are likely to cause disputes to torture him for information."

As a disciple of the Sandaime Tsuchikage, even if he was a traitor, reading his mind was a taboo. The ninja organizations that were open about it would not read the mind of a ninja of this level unless they had made the worst-case plan and were ready to go to war. And it doesn't mean that you will be fine if you don't admit it. The ninja world has thousands of methods to see if there is a mental problem, whether there has been an invasion, and the methods of reading the mind are not just one or two.

As for physical torture, although it was a little inefficient, it was at least more conventional and would not give people the misunderstanding that Konoha was coveting the Tsuchikage's orthodox secret techniques.

Mitokado En said: "We need your information to accurately judge the situation. After all, we in Konoha also have Jinchuriki, and the most powerful Nine-Tails. If it is true as you said, even Orochimaru was once a member of that organization, sooner or later our Konoha will be found."

"This organization is very mysterious. I haven't gotten much accurate information so far." Jiraiya replied helplessly, "But one thing is certain, this mysterious organization does not have too many official members, but most of them are S-level or above rebel ninjas, and their strength is extremely strong. Orochimaru is just one of them. Moreover, it is said that there is another Konoha rebel ninja who is now in the organization..."

"Uchiha Itachi?" asked Utane Koharu tentatively.

"He is the only one." Mito Kado En replied. Apart from Orochimaru who has already left the Akatsuki organization, the only Konoha rebel ninja who has left the village is Uchiha Itachi, who has the strength and qualifications.

Jiraiya nodded in confirmation: "I don't know much about this legendary genius junior, but it is said that Orochimaru once had a conflict with Uchiha Itachi. It seems that Orochimaru was defeated, so he left the organization. I don't know if it is true."

After saying that, Jiraiya laughed at himself: "It's really a new generation replacing the old. I didn't expect that the younger generation nowadays are so powerful. It seems that we are all old."

"Has he become this powerful? Uchiha Itachi." Utatane Koharu asked in surprise, "He is indeed a genius of the Uchiha family. What a pity."

"Jiraiya, are you really unwilling to take over the position of Hokage?" Mitomon En asked with a little dissatisfaction, "You lament that you are old, but there are still some people who refuse to accept their age..."

The subtext of the speech is a satire on Danzo Shimura, who is too power-hungry. If Danzo had not been going too far recently and aroused dissatisfaction among many people, Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu would not have openly argued with Danzo.

"Forget it. I'm not cut out to be Hokage." Jiraiya waved his hand quickly, "Let Tsunade do it. She's more suitable for this job."

"Okay." Mitomon En had no choice but to compromise and said, "But when are you going to go and get Tsunade back? Have you got any news about her?"

"It seems like there's a rough idea. Let's go there in a few days and wait for a good opportunity..."

"That's good. The village's defenses have been weak these past few days. Even the negotiation team that went to the Sand Ninja was forced to retreat back to Konoha. Now the village still can't do without you."

Until the end, the two advisors did not mention how the Konoha team persisted until the rescue in the face of an absolute disadvantage. The vague mission report of Hyuga Hiashi made everyone not fully understand the seriousness of the problem. Naturally, they thought that it was not the time to pursue this. Some problems should be left to Tsunade to deal with in the name of Hokage after she returns.

On a quiet night, Hinata Hiashi was still in his study, flipping through some materials that had been left unread for decades or even hundreds of years and had been passed down from who knows when. Due to the long time, Hinata Hiashi even found some popular myths and books on gods and monsters to compare with.

When looking at these things with a targeted purpose, Hinata Hiashi gradually discovered some patterns from these half-true and half-false records.

"The Goddess of the Rabbit? Her true identity is unknown, but it's an interesting identity. Samsara Eye, Sage Eye? The ancestor of Chakra? Then where does the Byakugan come from? How do you get the legendary Samsara Eye?"

Although a lot of information was obtained from these materials, it also brought more doubts and confusion. Over the past thousand years, more than half of the time was spent in war, which made most of the records incomplete, so a lot of information could not be accurately verified.

Just as Hinata Hiashi was looking through some documents in a daze, there was a knock on the study door.

"Who's outside?"

"It's me." Hanabi's voice came from outside the door, and then the door was pushed open. "Father, it's late, it's time to go to bed."

"I see. Where's your sister?"

"Here..."

Before he finished speaking, Hinata appeared timidly from the side.

"You've come just in time." Hinata Hiashi said, "There are things I need you to do."

The powerful head of the Hyuga family directly assigned a task to Hinata.
