Chapter 196 God's messenger? Namikaze Mirai?

A place where massive amounts of natural power are stored?

Is there really such a place in the ninja world?

Naruto looked at Namikaze Mirai curiously.

"Uncle, where is that place?"

I heard from White Snake Sage that the natural power of the ninja world was almost drained by his uncle.

Uncle, where are you going to find the substitute's share?

A generous hand stroked Naruto's hair, and Namikaze Mirai smiled: "You'll know when the time comes."

Dusty memories flowed out.

He suddenly showed a hint of sadness.

"Speaking of which, that place has something to do with you."

…

The land of wind.

Loulan ancient city.

The wind and sand are blowing, dilapidated ruins stand, and the ancient city with a long history is buried in the years.

The girl sat under the remaining wall, looking at the rolling yellow sand, with long bright red hair shawling her shoulders and melancholy eyes.

As the queen of Loulan, she witnessed the decline of her homeland but was unable to do anything about it.

All Sarah could do was sit alone under the sunset and savor the pain alone.

"Queen Sarah, the tribe is making trouble again."

The nervous voice behind her pulled her out of her emotions.

"I see."

Wiping away the tears from her eyes, Sara got up from the ground, patted the dust on her clothes, and returned to her previous strong appearance.

Her people need her and she cannot let them see her weak side.

On the other side, the troublemaking tribesmen crowded in front of the palace, pushing and shoving the few guards.

"Where is the Queen? We want to see the Queen."

"There is no way to survive here, we have to leave here!"

"Give up Loulan! Waiting any longer will lead to death."

The guard blocking the entrance was sweating profusely. People who made trouble like this would come several times a month, and now they were becoming more frequent.

They won't be able to hold on anymore.

"The Queen is here!"

I don't know who was the first to coax. The rioting crowd instantly fell silent and looked towards the location of the sound.

Sarah, who had long bright red hair, stood behind and glanced over them.

"Everyone, I understand your thoughts. Loulan is our home. Our ancestors have lived here for generations. If we give up here, we may never have a chance..."

"No need to say this again! Can we survive in Loulan?"

Her words were rudely interrupted by the tribesmen, and impatient voices came and went.

"The water source in Loulan has dried up. Queen Sarah, give up. Survival is the most important thing."

"Yes, give up Loulan!"

The tribesmen's voices pierced into her heart one after another. Sarah opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't speak, and the corners of her eyes gradually became moist.

In the past, relying on his reputation among the tribe, he could suppress doubts.

Now, the tribesmen's patience has been exhausted.

Loulan is the last inheritance left to her by her mother.

Before she died, she told her to protect Loulan.

Has it finally come to this point?

Since the power of the dragon vein mysteriously disappeared three years ago, Loulan's environment has taken a turn for the worse, with wind and sand blowing wildly and water sources drying up.

After holding on for three years, it was their limit.

In the end, I still have to give up here!

Abandoning their homeland and living as a homeless person.

Just when Sara opened her lips slightly, ready to give an order.

"Uncle, is this the place you mentioned?"

A curious voice came out suddenly, and Sarah's eyes froze, staring at the two people who suddenly appeared behind the tribe.

Her eyes stayed on the blond man, with strong surprise and joy in her eyes.

"It's you..."

Namikaze Mirai smiled politely.

Three years ago, no, six years ago to be exact, the Night of the Nine Tails had not yet happened.

He came to the ancient city of Loulan and wanted to absorb the dragon veins in the ancient city.

It was also at that time that I accidentally saved Sarah who was threatened by bandits and got acquainted with her.

Unexpectedly, Sara still remembered him after so long.

"What, are you in trouble?"

Namikaze Mirai asked.

Sara's eyes dimmed, like coals soaked in water losing all their luster, and she sighed.

"I'm going to make you laugh. The environment in Loulan is no longer suitable for our survival. We are preparing to move away and live somewhere else."

Namikaze Mirai glanced around, seeing endless yellow sand, ruins, and a desolate scene.

When he landed from the sky, he saw the whole of Loulan. The desolate scene made him wonder if no one had lived here for a long time.

Unexpectedly, Sarah and her people are engaged in a final struggle.

"Since about three years ago, the environment in Loulan suddenly deteriorated and the water sources began to dry up. Now it is completely impossible to survive."

There was a trace of sadness in Sarah's eyes.

three years ago? !

Namikaze Mirai's heart moved slightly.

Three years ago it was when he absorbed the dragon's veins and returned to Konoha Village.

At that time, he did not know that the dragon vein contained the power to disrupt time and space. While absorbing the dragon vein, he fell into the turbulence of time.

By the time the absorption was over, three years had passed.

Urgent in his heart, he rushed back to Konoha without stopping. On the way, he learned about the night of the Kyuubi and the death of Minato's brother and sister-in-law.

Furious.

Kill Danzo, force Sarutobi, and fight all the way to become the Fifth Hokage!

Unexpectedly, while he was doing these things, the ancient country of Loulan on the other side of the ninja world was plunged into a crisis of environmental degradation because of him.

Namikaze Mirai thinks that he is not a good person, but he is definitely not a person without empathy.

He is responsible for what happened in Loulan.

This happened because of him, and it should end because of him.

"Miss Sarah, please step back."

With a look of astonishment in her eyes, Sara looked at Namikaze Mirai in confusion.

"Sir, what do you want to do?"

"If it's just a deterioration of the environment, I should have a way to deal with it."

As soon as he finished speaking, noisy discussions broke out around him.

"Who is this Huang Mao? So arrogant?"

"Our family has been fighting against the wind and sand for hundreds of years, but there is no way to solve it. What can he do?"

"That's right! Could it be that Sarah came here to fool us? Just tell us if you don't want to move away. Why use such methods?"

Loulan has always been closed off. Except for the wandering caravans that occasionally visit every month, there are almost no channels for communication with the outside world. It is a relic of the old era.

Namikaze Mirai may be well-known to the outside world, but in the closed ancient city of Loulan, no one knows him.

Naruto glanced at them with a gloating look.

These guys are just waiting to be scared out of their wits!

The person who dares to say that about my uncle hasn’t even been born yet!

In the distrustful and suspicious eyes of everyone, Namikaze took a step forward, pointed at the sweeping wind and sand, and held his right hand empty.

With this light movement, the wind and sand above the ancient city of Loulan instantly solidified. Time seemed to stand still at this moment. Countless gravels stagnated in the sky, like stars that had lost their luster at night.

The crowd who were still mocking a second ago were all turned to stone, and their pupils trembled violently uncontrollably.

In the dull eyes of everyone, Namikaze Mirai opened his lips lightly and spit out a byte.

"retreat."

moment!

Like a god giving an order.

The wind and sand that had been hovering in Loulan for hundreds of years suddenly dispersed, the gravel retreated, the wind and waves stopped, and the sun shone unobstructed for the first time in this thousand-year-old city.

"Here comes the water!"

Namikaze Mirai issued the second order.

The earth shook with rumbles, and the water source hidden dozens of miles underground in the desert reversed its course, opening up and rising.

boom! ! !

Amidst the deafening roar of the ground, a water dragon several meters thick broke through the surface and turned into a fountain tens of meters high. Clear and sweet rainwater fell, dispelling the heat and dryness in the air.

"Water! It's water!"

"Queen Sarah, did you see it? It's the source of water!"

The people in Loulan cheered for joy in the rain, took off their coats, and played like naughty children in the rain.

Sarah watched this scene with a smile, and the warm liquid flowing from the corners of her eyes was either water or tears.

Mother, you will be pleased to see this scene in heaven!

Among the cheering people, she looked at Namikaze Mirai and knelt down on her knees piously.

Then came the second one.

The third, the fourth...

The crowd knelt down like dominoes in succession, with pious expressions, as if they were worshiping their gods.

The sunlight forms a colorful rainbow under the refraction of the water droplets, adding a touch of religious sanctity to this scene.

Naruto smiled proudly.

This is my uncle!

…

Dragon Vein Seal Tower.

Looking at the thin layer of purple at the bottom of the tower, Sara explained: "Master Divine Envoy, these are the dragon veins accumulated in the past three years. It is much less than three years ago, but it is still a little bit."

"I already told you that you don't need to call me a messenger."

There was a hint of helplessness in Namikaze Mirai's tone.

Ever since he stopped the wind and sand and reversed the desert underground sewers so that Loulan had a permanent water source, Sara and everyone in Loulan changed their names for him.

God's messenger.

To be honest, Namikaze Mirai didn't like this name.

It's like a title emerging from a corner.

But it seems to be true. Loulan is indeed a closed corner to the current ninja world.

Dispersing the distracting thoughts in his mind, Namikaze Mirai turned his attention to the dragon veins at the bottom of the tower.

This thin layer is more than a tiny bit less than the dragon vein he absorbed three years ago.

But in three years, it has been very difficult to recover these things.

Fortunately, when he absorbed it, he didn't completely suck it dry, otherwise not even this bit would be left.

"Uncle, is this the place where the power of nature is stored as you said?"

Naruto was confused, these dragon veins did contain considerable natural power.

But compared to what my uncle had absorbed before, it was nothing.

It’s not enough to make up for the lack of natural power through this, right?

Namikaze Mirai gave a vague answer.

"Yes and no."

The meaning of dragon veins to him is not the power of nature.

As early as when he absorbed the dragon vein three years ago, he discovered that he had misjudged the value of the dragon vein.

The greatest value of this existence that contains the power of time should not be regarded as consumables, but...

"Sit tight, Naruto!"

Namikaze Mirai grabbed Naruto's forearm.

The dragon veins stored under the tower seemed to feel the call, setting off a purple surge, rising upwards across the bottom of the tower.

"Uncle, where are we going?"

The Yin Zilong pulse rose from the sky and enveloped Naruto and Namikaze Mirai.

The weightlessness of his body and the fear of the unknown made Naruto scream subconsciously. In a trance, he seemed to hear the voice of Namikaze Mirai.

"Let's take a time travel, Naruto."

…

"My head hurts."

Naruto opened his eyes drowsily, feeling hungover-like and unable to muster any strength.

Time seems to have passed for a long time, and yet it seems like a blink of an eye.

What comes into view is still the bottom of the tower where the dragon veins are stored, which seems to be no different from before.

Naruto's eyes widened.

Is this a lonely thing?

"No, it has been successful."

Mirai Namikaze looked outside the exit, and the most obvious proof was the natural force contained in the air.

Compared to the ninja world he absorbed, it was more than one level richer.

Since one ninja world was not enough for him to absorb, then two ninja worlds.

This was Mirai Namikaze's solution!

However, this method also had its drawbacks.

Time is a strange power, and those who play with time will eventually be played with by time.

On the night of the Nine-tailed Fox, Mirai Namikaze deeply felt the ruthlessness of time.

Before that, he needed to make a confirmation.

Confirm his guess.

Grabbing Naruto's wrist, Mirai Namikaze passed the exit and flew towards the nearest village.

"Uncle... where are we going..."

The high-speed airflow made Naruto's voice unclear, and the sound chased his body, and only vague syllables could be heard in the whistling wind.

"Find a village and prove something."

Given the degree of isolation of those people in Loulan, it was too difficult to get information from them.

Mirai Namikaze skipped Loulan and chose the nearest village.

Naruto was stunned. It seemed that there was only one village nearby.

Sand Village!

Just as he was stunned, Namikaze Mirai stabilized his body. Looking down from here, he could clearly see the outline of Sand Village.

Rasa, who was working at his desk in the Kazekage's room, had no idea that an event concerning the survival of the village was about to happen.

Bang!

The door of the Kazekage's room was pushed open in a panic.

"Oh no! Lord Kazekage, an enemy has landed in the village from the sky."

Falling from the sky? ? ?

Flying ninjutsu?

Rasa narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Is it Ohnoki?"

That guy actually has the courage to come here?

In the three wars that just ended, Sand Village suffered a lot at his hands, and they were worried about having no place to vent!

"No, no, it's a ninja I don't know at all."

The report from his subordinates confused Rasa.

Strange ninja?

Are there other ninjas who master flying ninjutsu?

With such doubts, Luo Sha left the Kazekage room and went to the position where his subordinates reported.

Some Sand Ninjas were already gathered there, staring at the ninja in the middle with alert eyes.

A minute ago, it was the man in front of him who fell from the sky and landed in the Sand Village, easily defeating their companions.

"The Kazekage is coming!"

The shout from behind made these Sand Ninjas feel refreshed and encouraged.

"You are finished! No matter who you are, you have no chance to escape when the Kazekage comes!"

"Just surrender! The Kazekage has the magnetic escaping blood limit!"

"Humph! Under the hands of the strongest Kazekage, you are like a candle in the wind!"

Listening to the passionate flattery of the Sand Ninjas around him, Naruto felt strange in his heart. Why are these Sand Ninjas different from what he remembered?

Those guys in the Sand Village should be scared to death when they heard their uncle's name, right?

Amid the flattery of the Sand Ninjas, Luo Sha came late and stood in the middle with a lofty attitude, full of prestige.

"Which village are you from? Why did you trespass into the Sand Village?"

Amid the hostile gazes of many Sand Ninjas, Namikaze Mirai smiled contemptuously.

"Don't you remember me?"
