Chapter 93 Three years in the blink of an eye

"grandfather..."

"Huh? What's wrong?"

At night, the spacious office was brightly lit.

The pile of files had all been moved aside, and in their place was a Sukiyaki hot pot placed on the table.

The pot is now steaming, rolling and rising, and the enticing aroma fills the air.

Perhaps, only Yue Le can enjoy this treatment.

Yue Le gently picked up a piece of fatty beef, coated it with egg liquid, and gently brought it to Fei's mouth.

Fei couldn't wait to open her mouth and swallowed the meat in one gulp, making a hissing sound of pleasure, with a satisfied light flashing in her eyes.

Human food is so delicious～～～

"Before coming to Konoha, I seemed to have a few particularly good friends..."

Yue Le's voice was filled with a hint of reminiscence and confusion. He really had no memory of it, but he could feel Konan and Nagato's concern for him.

"Um......"

Danzo paused slightly, responded softly, then picked up another piece of meat from the pot and put it into Yue Le's bowl without responding.

"Eat more. The most important thing for you now is to take good care of your body."

Yue Le nodded and continued, "But... they are the founders of the Akatsuki organization that has recently emerged in the Rain Country."

With some helplessness, the leader of the mercenary organization said, this is indeed a bit difficult. Not only is it difficult for him to bring them back to Konoha, they will not agree to come here...

They have their own ideals...

"..."

Hearing this, Danzo was silent for a moment, then picked up another piece of meat and handed it to Yue Le.

"Yuele, on the surface, it is indeed not appropriate for Konoha to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries."

Yue Le raised his head and looked at the old man, muttering to himself, it sounds like Konoha is not interfering enough...

Oh, no, that is not called interference in internal affairs, but friendly international assistance and the kind care of the big brother to his younger brothers.

At this time, Fei on the side also hissed twice at Danzo, and his red-gold vertical pupils flashed with crystal light.

"Well... I'll talk to Hiruzen later and we can give them some material support as appropriate, but remember, the existence of the Root is to better serve Konoha Village." The old man continued.

There is nothing wrong with providing material assistance. The chaotic Rain Country is a good country.

With Hanzo's powerful strength, plus the Rain Country at his disposal, things are not good for Konoha, very bad...

"I understand, Grandpa. I want to have a good talk with them." Yue Le thought for a while and said so.

If possible, joining Konoha would actually be good for them... But given their personalities, how could they abandon the people of the Rain Country...

"Well...is there anything else?" The old man took a sip of tea.

Yue Le thought about it and suddenly remembered Nagato’s strange eyes.

"And, my friend has eyes, the likes of which I have never seen. Beautiful, and powerful...very powerful, with amazing powers."

"Tell me more about it." The old man seemed to be interested as well.

"There are circles of lavender waves around his eyes, which can exert forces similar to gravity and repulsion. Not only that, those eyes also have extremely keen perception abilities."

Yuele tried hard to recall the time he spent with Nagato and described it in as much detail as possible.

Danzo frowned slightly. He didn't know too much about this. After all, there were enough things to do in the Root in a day. He was not like Orochimaru who was obsessed with these things all day.

"Ask your teacher later. Let's eat first."

"Ah."

Suddenly, the atmosphere fell silent again, and after a while, the two started chatting about family matters again.

.......

"Sir, Yue Le's medical examination report."

"Well, let's go down."

"Yes, my lord."

[The body's activity has dropped significantly, but the recovery ability remains unchanged. After examination, for unknown reasons, cell division has accelerated, and the body has aged slightly. Using a catalyst will accelerate aging.]

[Fei's body structure is exactly the same as that of snakes, it is non-venomous, and no other special discoveries have been made. ]

"senescence..."

"Ugh..."

That's what he said, but Yue Le couldn't stop there. This was determined by the general environment, and he himself would not allow it. Pursuing more powerful strength was his obsession.

......

"That might be the legendary Samsara Eye."

"Reincarnation Eye?"

"Yes, the eyes of the legendary Sage of Six Paths."

"I see... Teacher, I want to improve my strength faster. The current speed is too slow. I must speed up the progress."

With fiery eyes, Yue Le looked at Orochimaru. How could he not know about the changes in his body? Although he had tried before because of Fei's arrival, he was able to get energy back from the energy-rich objects he devoured.

Yes, his life seemed to be cut in half, living and dying together. It was not that Fei possessed his power, but that his life was cut in half to Fei.

This is the real reason why the two of them lived and died together. What is manifested externally is that Yue Le's cells are dividing and aging rapidly at all times.

In this situation, his pursuit of power became more urgent, as if something was urging him to get stronger and stronger...

Facing Yuele's serious eyes, Orochimaru thought for a moment. At this moment, he remembered the experiment that was still going on before the mission, and also thought of the aging of Yuele's cells...

Maybe, let Yue Le try.

......

"Human body research?"

Yue Le was not actually particularly unfamiliar with the experiments that his grandfather and teacher were conducting. He had even been exposed to some of them.

However, before this, he had never been involved in the most core part.

It is an existence that must not be exposed to sunlight, and it is also a taboo place buried deep under the soil.

After he recovered completely, Yue Le once again threw himself into new tasks. His teammates were still the two Uchiha brothers and Black Cat.

This team with Yue Le as the core has become an extremely outstanding team in Konoha Village, and is even secretly called mission maniacs by others.

The two Uchiha brothers would no longer get excited about the level of the missions. With Yue Le around and their own growth, the missions they accepted were at least A-level or above, and usually most of them were S-level missions.

Thanks to the high completion rate of college tasks, the reputation of Konoha Wind Bird quickly spread to all major ninja villages.

At the same time, the two brothers Xuanmao and Uchiha are also constantly growing and improving. The cooperation between them has become more and more tacit, and they have become the rising shining stars of Konoha Village.

The speed at which their mission was progressing was even far ahead of Minato's team. No, not just Minato's team, but their same batch, and even the entire Konoha, their mission progress was the fastest.

While other talented ninjas of the same batch were still gloating over completing S-level missions, Yue Le had already been constantly updating the records.

In his personal file, the number of S-level missions is gradually increasing, without any failure, and the success rate is 100%.

Such talents for missions are what all major ninja villages dream of.

In Konoha, in an izakaya, the three ninjas rarely get together.

“Now, this really is their future!”

Jiraiya grinned. He was very satisfied with Minato's growth. Even though he still hadn't completed as many high-level and high-intensity tasks as Yue Le, the success rate of their team was 100%.

After all, Minato is Jiraiya's disciple, so he must be very outstanding!

"I knew it, hahahaha!"

Tsunade laughed loudly and drank another cup.

"Sha~~~"

"But Tsunade, Orochimaru, Yuele...how is your research going?"

Suddenly, the topic became cold.

"Ugh......"

"I'll find a way."

"......"

Orochimaru said nothing, but drank his wine silently. The more he observed Yue Le's cells, the more irritated he became. So far, he hadn't discovered anything...

......

When Yue Le's reputation gradually spread to various major ninja villages, a bounty for him was also posted on the black market.

The new generation of Orochimaru and White Fang's combination, his high-intensity task completion speed has increased the murderous intent of the major villages towards him. Even the equally emerging Minato and others cannot compare to him.

However, Yue Le didn't care about it. Ever since he felt that half of his life was taken away, his pursuit of power increased a lot faster and he became a complete cultivation maniac.

Orochimaru's research progress has been advancing. Tsunade has also joined in on the research regarding Yue Le's body. However, regarding the cell tissue of the First Hokage, neither Danzo nor Orochimaru has let her know yet.

After all, he is Tsunade's grandfather. If she knew about this, she would still feel resentful.

........

This year, Konoha ended the war with the Iwagakure Village. The war did not last long, and it could not even be considered an all-out war, but it was enough to shroud the entire Konoha in a tense and exhausted atmosphere, as if the air was filled with the embers of war and the smell of gunpowder.

However, just when Konoha had breathed a sigh of relief and was preparing to recuperate, other ninja villages began to stir.

Like a pack of hungry wolves, they set their greedy eyes on the resources of the weak countries around them.

A brutal and ruthless war of plunder and annexation has begun!

This seemingly peaceful situation was actually just a temporary rest and recuperation. As time passed, the factions within each ninja village gradually became clear.

Each faction is ambitious to expand its sphere of influence and enhance its own strength. For them, plundering and annexing surrounding resources is just the first step towards their goal.

Improving strength requires resources, only with resources can you improve your strength, and only with strength can you better plunder resources...

It's an endless road...

Since the Second Ninja World War came to an end, the tense situation has not eased at all, but has instead heralded the beginning of a more tragic and larger-scale Third Ninja World War...

Konoha is located at the core of the entire world and has the best geographical location.

That's true. With the God of the Ninja World and the King of Dance of the Ninja World here, and with the Wood Release that opens with a vast forest, it's hard for Konoha to be in a disadvantageous position.

However, it is precisely because of the extremely rich natural resources here that Konoha does not need to obtain more resources by invading and annexing the surrounding weak countries like other ninja villages.

But precisely because Konoha Village is located in the core area and is surrounded by other ninja villages on all sides, it has become the focus of everyone's attention and faces threats from enemies from all directions.

Only when you have strong power, you are qualified to enjoy this fertile resource and can deter the surrounding jackals and hyenas...

The muscular hyena hiding in the clouds, the piranhas hiding overseas, the white-eyed wolf nestling beside him, ready to bite back at any time, and the old wolf with vicious eyes...

Konoha needs strong strength to deal with external difficulties...

Under such a tense situation, Konoha will naturally take action to quickly improve its own strength in order to cope with the war crisis that may break out at any time.

Whether it is training outstanding ninjas, exploring innovative ninjutsu skills, strengthening cooperation with other forces, or finding things to do for the old brothers around you, this is very important...

...........

Time flies, and five years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Inside the Water Country, there is a dense jungle, filled with fog and extremely low visibility.

In the jungle, a young man wearing a pitch-black black bird mask slowly walked out from the bushes.

There were stains of blood on the Tang sword in his hand, and at this moment, there was still a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.

The young man was tall and slender, and looked heroic in a slim-fitting ANBU uniform.

The mask was dotted with whirlwind-like lines, and the red hair was slightly damp, with a few strands of gray mixed in.

"Hiss..."

"Yeah, I know, I know, wait a little longer, wait a little longer, we are not in a hurry... I will make sure you are full..."

The young man came to the lake, raised his head slightly, and gazed calmly at the calm lake surface shrouded in thick fog.

It's been five years already...

It has been five years since Fei was born, how fast it goes...

Tread-tap-

A light sound of footsteps came from the water.

The thick fog made everything hazy and obstructed vision, but Yue Le could still feel the huge chakra of that figure.

It was difficult to see the scene in front clearly. Slowly, a tall and strong blurry figure was approaching. This figure was like a ghost, and could even walk on water. Every step created ripples, and the sound of footsteps was like the death knell.

Although his body was stout, he did not sink into the water. Instead, he walked towards Yue Le as if he were walking on flat ground.

As the distance got closer, the figure gradually became clearer. The person coming was a sturdy man who was two meters and five meters tall.

His long orange hair reaches his waist, his neck is wrapped in a fluffy bandage, a whip shaped like a dumbbell is tied to his head, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth, and six eye-catching green stripes are painted on his face.

This slightly fat man was holding a strangely shaped ninja sword tied with bandages in his hand.
