Chapter 102 Changes in Chakra

Jiraiya was once again broken by Aoba's nonsense. However, Jiraiya, who was usually eloquent, could not find a way to fight back.

Obviously, the other party was slandering his deceased teacher, but Jiraiya could not refute it.

"What exactly do you want to say?"

"Nothing special. I just want to prove it. The fact that Orochimaru killed the Third Hokage may not affect his friendship with Tsunade."

Aoba did not mention Orochimaru's Impure World Reincarnation card. Because in his opinion, Orochimaru's playing this card is a trump card on the surface, but it may not have any effect. It may even be the kind of counter-effect that the leopard is killed by the second, third, and fifth.

Because over the years, although Tsunade missed them, she should have accepted the deaths of Rope Tree and Dan.

If Orochimaru dared to use this as a bargaining chip, it might only anger Tsunade.

"So, the mission is to bring back Tsunade and capture Orochimaru?"

"No, it's to protect Tsunade and bring her back. I'll make other arrangements for capturing Orochimaru."

"It might be hard for me to convince her."

"I've given you enough reasons to convince her. After all, if she doesn't come back, I'll be the Hokage. You definitely don't want to see that situation, Master Jiraiya."

"..."

Jiraiya left in silence. After he became famous, he may never feel so powerless again. But no matter what, he is still loyal to Konoha.

But this process made Qingye feel like a villain.

Konoha Building. Kakashi and Shikaku have already started making arrangements for the next phase.

"Moonlight Gale, Mitarashi Anko, Shiranui Genma, Yamashiro Aoba, Hozuki Reito, Morino Ibiki, Inuzuka Tsumugi, Sunset Red, White Cloud Morning.

The above special jonin will be promoted to jonin immediately. From today on, you will each lead a team and begin patrolling the area around Konoha.

Remember, although the Sand Village and Sound Ninja have retreated, Konoha is still in a state of war. In the previous war, Konoha's walls and barriers were severely damaged. Now Konoha, in the eyes of the surrounding major ninja villages, is a delicious cake. Everyone wants to come up and take a bite.

Therefore, for this patrol mission, all teams will enter the highest level of alert. Any non-native ninja who approaches Konoha without official channels will be killed without mercy. Sarutobi Asuma, Kai, your team will also join in. "

"Yes."

"Now everyone step forward to receive the mission scroll. Also, Maruboshi Kosuke-senpai. Now is a critical time for Konoha. We need you to step up again and lead those young ninjas."

"It is my duty to sacrifice myself for Konoha."

"Very good, seniors are free to form a team and join the above mission."

After all the teams received their missions, Kakashi and Shikaku continued to sit in the office and worry.

"Konoha can still hold on. But we have transferred back too many ninjas stationed outside. We still need to strengthen our defenses at the Fire Country border.

Otherwise, if too many residents of the Land of Fire are robbed, it will affect the Daimyo's opinion of us. We are in urgent need of funding from the Daimyo."

This was what Kakashi had discussed secretly with Shikaku before. In the case of insufficient manpower, the private forces of the major ninja clans were needed to help.

"I have already persuaded most of the clans. At a time like this, the Konoha ninja clan will not lag behind. But according to convention, we still need to give some...exchanges."

Kakashi sighed. Once the ninja clan was involved, things would become much more complicated.

"Let's put it off for now. When the next Hokage takes office, let him solve it. Now we need to solve another problem as soon as possible. The Hokage's funeral."

Aoba finally chose not to publish the information. This means that the Third Hokage died in the name of Hokage. In this case, the Hokage's funeral is essential.

And this kind of thing needs to be done early. After all, if it is delayed, it will not work.

"Maybe in two days. We still need to prepare."

"That's it for now. Also, isn't it time to put negotiations with Sunagakure on the agenda?"

"No, we won't do anything about it."

Kakashi directly rejected Shikaku's proposal. The main reason was that Konoha now had an absolute advantage over the Sand Ninja in terms of morality, strength, and even leverage.

Both sides have lost their kages. But Konoha still has many capable people. But Sand Village, except for a few old guys, has no one to show for it.

In addition, three important hostages of Sand Village, Temari, Kankuro, and Gaara, are in the hands of Konoha. In addition, Konoha also captured a large number of Sand Village ninjas.

With so many cards in hand, for Sand Village, Konoha can delay, but Sand Village can't afford it.

Apart from anything else, as long as the Jinchūriki doesn't go back, Sand Village will lack the most important strategic weapon. Therefore, there is no need for Konoha to take any action. Sand Village will naturally lose its patience.

In Konoha's temporary hospital, after resting for half a day, Haruno Sakura and Yumi continued to treat the wounded.

Aoba returned to the underground laboratory alone.

His laboratory was protected by multiple barriers and suffered almost no damage in this battle.

Aoba returned to the laboratory and took out a scroll. What was sealed inside was the origin chakra extracted from the one-tailed beast. Logically speaking, this should actually be part of the ten-tailed beast's chakra.

It's just that the Six Paths Sage seemed to have done something when he was dividing the chakra. Only when the chakras of the nine tailed beasts are gathered together, will they converge into the real Ten Tails Chakra.

But Qingye was mentally prepared for this and was not disappointed.

Instead, he directly unsealed some of the chakra and then tried to absorb it into his body.

The chakra of the tailed beasts is more violent and dangerous than that of humans. In other words, the chakra of the tailed beasts is more primitive.

After comparison, Qingye discovered that human chakra has a very special characteristic. They seem to be domesticated.

This should be the work of the Six Paths Sage. When he first passed down the power of chakra, he should have made some improvements based on the physical characteristics of humans.

The chakra of the tailed beasts is in a more primitive state. And after comparison, it is found that this primitive chakra is closer to natural energy.

The power of chakra did not exist in this world originally. It was only after Kaguya ate the fruit of the sacred tree that she first gained this power.

But don't forget that the energy of the chakra fruit is actually the chakra transformed by the sacred tree absorbing the original power of the world.

According to this concept, both Chakra and natural energy are essentially one and the same. It is just that Chakra has been transformed by the sacred tree and turned into the tailed beast chakra form.

The tailed beast chakra was transformed by the Six Paths Sage and became the chakra used by ninjas today.
