Chapter 93 Fantasy

In the water ball, Ye Shan felt his lungs were a little stuffy, and a trace of anxiety flashed across his face. He knew that this was a sign that the oxygen was about to run out. If he could no longer breathe in oxygen, he would faint or even die from lack of oxygen.

The water dragon carried Ye Shan's body and swam out of the water ball. Strangely, Yagura did not try to stop him immediately, but crossed his arms and watched Ye Shan escape playfully.

Ye Shan frowned tightly, and realized belatedly that something was wrong. Although the water ball was huge, the movement speed of the water dragon was not slow. Logically, he should be close to the edge of the water ball, but why was he still in the center?

Thinking of this, Ye Shan stopped the supply of chakra at the bottom of his feet, and the lifelike water dragon roared and disappeared.

Yagura sneered. The terrifying thing about this water ball technique is that its position will change with the movement of the trapped person, ensuring that the trapped person is always at the center of the ninjutsu, thus achieving the purpose of trapping the enemy to death.

When Yagura was young, he accidentally fell into the sea. In a panic, he swallowed a fiery red seaweed. Unexpectedly, he found that he could survive for a long time in the water without breathing. Not only that, he also had a natural affinity for water-attribute chakra. He even created a series of ninjutsu such as the Coral Palm, which was extremely bizarre.

But behind this blessing in disguise lies Yagura's lifelong pain. His short stature and childish face were often ridiculed by others.

Time passed by minute by minute, and before he knew it, Ye Shan had been trapped in the water ball for about five minutes. Gradually, his mind became confused due to lack of oxygen in his brain.

With his vision blurred, Ye Shan recalled the carefree self in his previous life, the regret of never having been in love in two lifetimes, the torment of his first murder, and the efforts he had made to survive.

Live...Live...Live...

The faces of his teammates and companions who had died in front of him formed the final picture in Ye Shan's mind, which actually refreshed his thinking and restored some clarity.

He still has a lot of things to do. Those who have done him favors have not been repaid, and those who persecuted him have not been retaliated against. He can't just die here in a daze.

Ye Shan hurriedly took out a bunch of things from his ninja tool bag, and without bothering to identify them carefully, he threw them all out.

Yagura stared at the obviously flustered Hayama with sympathy, feeling deeply moved. No ninja could remain calm in the face of death, especially a young and promising ninja.

Ye Shan's mind didn't clear for long, and soon became confused again. He felt as if someone was holding his lungs tightly, making it impossible for him to breathe. He couldn't help but open his mouth to inhale oxygen to relieve his lungs, but he drank a big sip of water instead.

A scene from a dream slipped out in Ye Shan's confusion, confusing fact with fantasy. In the fantasy, he was no longer the unknown Baiyun Ye Shan, but the upright Uchiha Fugaku who was born with a golden key, a true winner in life.

Every loser has the fantasy of becoming a noble. Although Ye Shan is not an ordinary loser, he is still not immune to it.

----

When the curtain in front of them was lifted, a lively atmosphere hit them in the face. Most of the ninjas who were discussing something intensely around a few bookshelves just looked up and continued with their own things. Only a few nodded and showed a friendly smile.

There are not many books on the bookshelf, most of which are some common elementary textbooks for ninja schools such as "Introduction to Ninjutsu", "Hand Seal Techniques", and "Brief Analysis of Chakra".

There were also some unsigned notes that were obviously just put up. On the table next to them, several people were holding the same notebooks, discussing and writing down something.

Fugaku responded one by one, walked out of the room without stopping, and after passing through a very large and equally busy training ground, he entered another room.

The room was laid out like a conference room, with a round table in the middle and a platform on one side, but at this moment, the room was empty.

A faint breathing sound was hidden under the eaves.

Fugaku didn't care. He walked to the platform and reached out to touch a secret mechanism.

There was a crackling sound, and a passage appeared on the side of the platform, dark and unknown where it led to.

"Fugaku-kun." A voice came from the corner of the passage, but there seemed to be no one there.

"It's me. The meeting is about to start. Let's go in together." Fugaku said.

"No, it's my turn on duty today. It won't be too late to go in after the meeting starts." The ninja hesitated for a moment, but insisted.

Fugaku ignored him and continued to move forward, pushing open a door at the end, and a bright light was projected from inside.

"Fugaku, you're here." Minato, with blond hair, was sitting among the people inside the door. When he saw Fugaku, who was wearing a windbreaker, walk in, he greeted him.

Fugaku nodded and found a seat to sit down.

The room was not big, with more than a dozen chairs inside. Although it was built underground, the ninjas' construction skills could easily make it not so uncomfortable. There was an electric light on the roof, illuminating the underground room.

After a while, the ninja who was on guard outside pushed the door open and said to Minato, "Minato, it seems that no one is coming anymore."

"Yes," Minato nodded, "Kenji and Naomura are out on a mission, and Choza seems to have a family meeting and can't come either, so we won't wait for them."

At this time, a ninja whom Fugaku had met before said with a smile: "Genma, you said no one is coming, but I saw that boy Genma hanging under the eaves above. Wait a minute, he won't break in, right?"

Genma walked in and said unhappily, "Gojuuro, Genma is just curious. Besides, even if you doubt me, you won't doubt Minato's sealing technique, right?"

Minato stood up and walked to the door, pressing one hand on the door and making a seal with the other hand. Hearing what Genma said, he also made a joke: "If you ask me, since Genma wants to know what your brother is doing so much, you might as well tell him our purpose. Maybe we can get one more member."

As he spoke, Minato did not slow down the hand seals in his hands at all, and when he completed the seals, an indescribable force swept through the entire room, and mysterious seals emitting faint light appeared on the surrounding walls.

Fugaku knew that it was a unique sealing technique belonging to the Uzumaki clan, taught to Minato by the only remaining descendant of the Uzumaki clan.

The sealing technique that Minato is currently performing is capable of isolating sounds, light, and even the flow of chakra from both inside and outside, and cannot prevent physical intrusion, so Yamanaka Gojukuro just made a joke that "someone will break in soon."

Seeing that he was about to become the target of public criticism, Genma spread his hands and said, "Since Minato has said so, I will make it clear to Genma later and introduce him to the club next time."

Everyone laughed, including Genma Shiranui who said it, but no one took it seriously.

[Ninjutsu Innovation Association], this is the name of this small group of less than 20 people.

The training ground and discussion room above were built by Jiraiya, one of the Three Ninjas. In recent years, the villagers have jokingly called it the "Jounin Training Class."

At first, Jiraiya only gave free instruction to some young jonin in their training. Gradually, although Jiraiya had neither the energy nor the time to guide all the ninjas who came here, more and more ninjas gathered here to discuss and verify with each other, and this training ground became a training resort for young jonin to communicate with each other.

As Jiraiya's disciple and a genius in ninjutsu, Minato is undoubtedly the most dazzling among these young people. In addition, he has a gentle personality and is also willing to guide other ninjas on their questions in ninjutsu. It is no exaggeration to say that Minato is the leader of this group of young people.

But the training ground was, after all, just a loose group of practitioners who came and went freely. Although it earned Minato a lot of reputation, Minato wanted more than that.

Minato had greater ambitions and aspirations, so this formal organization of only 17 people was born.

To the outside world, they are merely a research organization that is not satisfied with the existing ninjutsu and wants to create more, more powerful, and easier-to-use ninjutsu.

In fact, they are young, energetic, even a little arrogant, and what they want is to change the current chaotic ninja world.

They called themselves the "Ninja Revolution Association".

With Fugaku, Minato and Chouza as the original members, this organization has gradually expanded to 17 people. In order to avoid detection methods such as a certain family's eye technique or an old man's crystal ball, Minato usually sets up sealing techniques to isolate it from outside detection.

In Konoha, the ninja base, secrets are everywhere. If you dig a hole underground, you might accidentally break into the secret passage or laboratory of some organization, family, or scientist. The phenomenon of surviving in groups is actually very common among ninjas.

Despite this, Fugaku once suggested using illusion to test this small ninja group of only 17 people, but was rejected by Minato.

Fugaku remembered what Minato said at the time: "We are not a so-called dark organization like [Root]. Our beliefs and ideals have destined us to be known and recognized by everyone in the future. We were destined from the beginning to have no connection with things like [secrets], so there is no need to do this at all."

Fugaku deeply agreed with these words.

An organization that holds the ideal of changing the entire ninja world, when its power is small and known to others, will only be dismissed as a joke or a lunatic. But when they are powerful, the enemy is still the enemy, and whether they are known to the enemy or not will not change the reality of the life-and-death struggle between them. But for potential companions, this knowledge happens to be a call for publicity.

Everyone sat down casually. It was called a meeting, but in today's time when there was no unified action, it was just a gathering to exchange ideas with each other. After all, it was not realistic to expect this group of young people, most of whom had never experienced power and practice, to come up with any constructive opinions.

Therefore, the topics among them were not so much about any guiding principles as some imaginations about the future and some superficial goals.

The first one is of course "peace", which is also the core concept of this organization headed by Watergate that attracts everyone to join.

The second one is "Ninja is the master". There is no need to say much about this one. It is the main body and the most fundamental position of this organization.

The third point is "unification", which is the means to achieve the first two points. I have to say a few more words about this point. Even with Minato's gentle personality, what he proposed was "complete unification with the least possible losses, and under this premise, the use of force is inevitable."

The rest is nothing more than the extension and argumentation of these three points, without any further information added.

“So, productivity is the power of production, except that the products and results of this production are all things that are beneficial to people’s survival, including houses, food and everything else.”

Minato talked eloquently and everyone listened attentively. Obviously, in their hearts, this blond boy who was perhaps the youngest among them was very prestigious.

"Fugaku," Minato glanced and saw Fugaku in a red windbreaker sitting on a chair slightly outside with his eyes slightly closed. He knew that this guy was focusing on his own training again, so he said helplessly, "You know the most about this, so you should say a few words."

Fugaku put away the chakra ball on his palm, opened his eyes calmly and said calmly: "Minato has already explained it very clearly about productivity, production relations and means of production, and I have nothing to add.
