Naruto: In the name of time, shock the ninja world!.

Chapter 244 Six months later, Orochimaru returns to Konoha

Just as the war broke out between Iwagakure and Konoha, Konoha was completely quiet. Apart from a little helplessness, there was only the laughter of the villagers.

In the Hokage's residence, Sakumo was complaining to Hoshino Kaede at this time: "Third generation, look, that girl is lawless. She left the village without even saying hello. You have to take care of it."

Hearing this, Xingye Feng rolled his eyes at him and said, "Come on, you just talked about it, but I didn't see you send anyone to pick her up."

"You are still lawless. I think you should bear the main responsibility for this."

Sakumo smiled awkwardly, and then changed the subject: "The stalemate in Kumogakure is a good thing for Konoha."

"I was worried that Minato might not be able to suppress the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki by himself, but now that Kushina has gone there, the problem has been solved at once. This is cause for celebration."

Seeing that Sakumo was as thick-skinned as a city wall, Xingye Feng shook his head helplessly and laughed: "You, you are so ungrateful after getting the advantage."

"It can be said that Kumogakure has gained a firm foothold. The chakra cannon developed by Orochimaru has played an indispensable role in this. Don't forget to make a note of this."

Hoshino Kaede gave a suggestion.

Both of them read the battle report from the front more than once, and the most eye-catching one was the chakra cannon.

Such an impressive record was achieved in the first actual combat, which is worthy of the title of a powerful weapon.

Orochimaru indirectly helped Konoha share some of the pressure, and this contribution cannot be erased.

After hearing this, Sakumo immediately expressed his opinion and said seriously: "Of course, without the chakra cannon, Konoha's casualties would be huge."

Merits must be rewarded, and faults must be punished. This is what Konoha has always adhered to and is reflected in all aspects.

Hoshino Kaede nodded, then said, "Have you heard any news about Orochimaru recently? What is he doing recently?"

Sakumo thought for a moment and said, "I haven't really paid much attention to him. There have been too many things going on lately, but he should be hiding somewhere doing his research now."

Xingye Feng agreed: "This is in line with his personality."

"He is the most persistent person I have ever met, fanatically persistent."

"But it is precisely because of this almost morbid persistence that he can overcome the obstacles on his way."

Upon hearing this, Sakumo couldn't help but sigh: "The Hatake clan used to be samurai, but after the rise of ninjas, they had to join Konoha in order to survive."

Xingye Feng smiled without saying anything, drank his tea slowly, and listened to him quietly.

"And now, the rise of technology is inevitable, and I can also foresee the decline of the ninja profession in the future."

Sakumo said firmly.

Hoshino Kaede smiled and then added: "But the decline of ninjas has led to the rise of civilians. Ninjas are no longer the only ones in power."

"This may lower the status of ninjas, but it will mean a lot to the entire Konoha."

After hearing this, Shuomao took out the documents he had prepared long ago from the drawer and opened them.

Xingye Feng shifted his gaze and glanced at him, then raised his eyebrows and the smile on his lips gradually deepened.

The title of the document clearly read: "Proposal on school expansion, admission of civilians and increase of general courses"

"Sakumo, once this document is issued, it will be no less than an earthquake." Hoshino Kaede said meaningfully.

Upon hearing this, Sakumo flashed a disapproving smile on his face: "Earthquake? Third generation, this is not up to them."

Xingye Feng shrugged without commenting on his words and didn't say much.

"I can already foresee that the Ninja family is going to be in chaos."

Shuomao raised the corner of his mouth, narrowed his eyes, leaned forward, and a hint of cruelty flashed across his eyes.

"Then we need to see if my knife is sharp enough."

......

In a secret base in the Land of Water, Orochimaru stared at the data in the instrument intently, muttering to himself from time to time.

"Did it fail again? What went wrong?"

"The cells are not active enough, and their vitality is lacking... We have to find a new test subject."

Orochimaru closed his eyes and thought for a while. After a while, the door of the laboratory was opened, and it was the subordinates that Orochimaru had recruited along the way.

"Lord Orochimaru, Kumogakure and Konoha are at a stalemate, and a war has broken out between Iwagakure and Konoha."

Orochimaru's eyes flickered slightly, and he said, "I understand."

The subordinates bowed their heads respectfully and retreated. Orochimaru took a deep breath, rubbed his brows, put down the experiment in his hands, and walked aside to rest.

"Sure enough, Konoha's edge is unstoppable. One person can challenge the three major ninja villages alone without any pressure."

The development of the war was exactly as Orochimaru had expected.

After a brief thought, he turned his attention back to the experiment at hand.

"We still have to go to Konoha. Apart from the First Hokage, the Third Hokage has the highest cell activity."

Orochimaru's thoughts gradually drifted away, and he decided to go back.

He didn't dare to think about the cells of the first generation, it was a bit too presumptuous, and he was not familiar with the first generation.

The remaining options are only three generations.

Thinking of this, Orochimaru suddenly felt that he had been a little hasty in leaving Konoha.

"Forget it. Konoha isn't looking for me anyway, and no one will make things difficult for me if I return to the village."

"Before that, let's take care of some things first."

......

Half a year later, it was the forty-fourth year of Konoha.

Compared to the beginning, after half a year, the front line has gradually stabilized, large-scale battles rarely occur, and they are just tests.

The largest scale of these was the war between Iwagakure and Konoha.

Several major battles broke out between the two sides, with varying degrees of casualties on both sides, but overall Konoha was still the winner.

The Uchiha and Hyuga families are indeed big families, and the fighting power they unleash in times of crisis should not be underestimated.

Elite ninjas emerge in large numbers, and their overall quality is even better than that of Konoha ninjas.

The most amazing among them was Uchiha Shimizu, who was extremely brave on the battlefield and killed dozens of jonin in a row. This record made him famous.

The Hyuga clan was not to be outdone, and following closely behind were the two brothers Hyuga Hiashi and Hyuga Hizashi.

He also made a name for himself with his superb soft fists and white eyes.

The people of Iwagakure Village were so angry that they gnashed their teeth. Such a luxurious lineup caused them to suffer heavy losses.

The casualty ratio reached four to one, which means that four of our own people died for every one enemy killed.

Fortunately, we have the advantage in numbers, otherwise this battle would be impossible to win.

Within half a year, countless battles of all sizes were taking place in various parts of the ninja world, and the sky seemed to be covered with a layer of haze.

And on this day, a person who had disappeared for many days entered Konoha and went straight to find Kaede Hoshino.

"What a rare guest, Orochimaru." Hoshino Kaede raised his eyebrows, then gestured for him to sit down and talk.

Orochimaru was not polite, he sat down directly and said straight to the point: "I came here today in the hope of obtaining your cells."

Xingye Feng paused for a moment while pouring tea, then laughed and looked at him: "You are so rude, saying such presumptuous words right at the start."

Hearing this, Orochimaru smiled on his fair face: "You should know whether this is presumptuous or not."
