Hearing his father's perfunctory words, Nara Shikamaru said with some dissatisfaction: "I am already a chunin, and I am no longer a child."

"Is it a chunin?" Nara Shikahisa smiled and said, "When you can take my class one day, you will understand!"

After speaking, he stood up and walked into the back room, leaving Shikamaru sulking alone.

"Some things, I hope to end in our generation, instead of leaving troubles to the next generation! 』

The three families of Zhuludie share weal and woe. They used to be staunch supporters of the three generations of Hokage and Sarutobi. With Sarutobi's position as Hokage, the three families also gained unexpected benefits.

The Nara family, which monopolized most of the medicine business in the village, owns a large area of ​​medicine gardens and nurseries, and the benefits they harvest every day are astronomical. Resources.

Although with the strength of Zhuludie, even if Hiruzen Sarutobi did not become Hokage in the end, there would not be too much loss, but seeing the families that once flourished slowly decline, or even disappear, this kind of imitation The feeling of being helpless will always make people feel more uneasy day by day.

After the Uchiha family disappeared from Konoha Village, very few adult family members took up important positions in the village. Even if there were some amazing people, they were idle at home early, and only when there was an order from Hokage, would they come back again. Put on your shirt and take up arms to fight for your village and your family. Usually, I just maintain law and order, do trivial things, and spend more time drinking than doing tasks.

The balance point between the family and the village has never been clearly defined. Many large and small families neither interfere in the distribution of Konoha's rights nor participate in competing for the position of Hokage. Anyway, whoever becomes Hokage will support whoever. For Hokage's disciples and their companions, they are supportive but not flattering.

There are also increasingly powerful civilian ninja forces, as well as the endorsement of some declining ninja clans, which has caused the power of the big family to continue to decline. In addition, the tough martial arts faction headed by Danzo has gradually suppressed these clans. The pressure on the children is also increasing day by day.

"Maybe the ninja family will one day integrate into the village, we can disappear, but we must not be destroyed! 』

Thinking of this, Nara Shikahisa also recalled the arrogant remarks of the rebellious silver-haired ninja.

"Are you young? A strong man without the burden of his family can be more unscrupulous, which is really enviable! 』

For the reconstruction of the garrison, Nara Shikahisa, who was appointed as the minister, understood that this was a good opportunity. Not only is it a major move to unify the forces of all parties and increase the voice of Tsunade Five Hokage, it is also an attempt by Tsunade to bridge the relationship between all parties and weaken the rights of the elders of the previous generation. If it goes well, it may make the village more smooth.

...

In the Land of Waves, a silver-haired man of about thirty years old walked along the streets of a small town with a boy of sixteen years old with shoulder-length black hair. Since the opening of the magnificent Naruto Bridge, the originally lifeless country of Wave has gradually gained some popularity. The convenient transportation, coupled with the superior geographical location, has made the country of Wave slowly become a business travel destination. great place.

It has been half a year since the last time Shui Mu came here, and seeing a scene completely different from what he remembered, Shui Mu was also a little surprised.

As for Yukimura, who was seeing so many people for the first time, he looked at the novelty around him even more curiously. It's completely different from staying underground. Even the sun in the sky can surprise him for a long time. If Mizuki didn't stop him, maybe the weak Yukimura would have been blinded by the sun's rays.

"Shui Mu, are these all edible?"

"Yes."

When staying underground, always choose some non-perishable and easy-to-preserve food, naturally it is not delicious. But here, Yukimura's stomach is completely conquered by the dazzling array of snacks, and he wants to try anything he encounters.

Just as the two were hanging out, a crisp child's voice came over.

"Brother Sasuke?"

Mizuki turned his head and saw a little boy with a blue and white striped hat standing not far away, and Yukimura who heard the sound also turned his head.

This little boy is none other than Inari, the grandson of bridge-builder Dazna. Next to him is his mother Tsunami, and the other hand is holding freshly bought vegetables, and seems to be preparing to go home. .

"Brother Sasuke?" Yukimura pointed his finger at his face and asked strangely, "Are you calling me? I'm not called Brother Sasuke, my name is Yukimura!"

"I admit the wrong person!" Inari shook his head in disappointment. The boy in front of him was obviously about three years older than the Uchiha Sasuke he had seen, and his hairstyle and temperament were very different. Originally thought that when I saw Sasuke, maybe Naruto was there, but I didn't expect it to be a happy one.

Tsunami on the side bowed slightly and apologized: "Sorry for causing trouble to the two of you."

"do not worry about it."

Mizuki shook his head and pulled the curious Yukimura away.

"Hey, Mizuki, who is Big Brother Sasuke? Does he look like me, just like you and other Mizuki?"

"What's this?" Mizuki gave his head in embarrassment, but he didn't expect to come out for a walk, but there would be such a small episode, "Brother is the name of a boy who is older than himself, Sasuke is a person's name."

"As for your relationship with Sasuke, it's somewhat similar to me and other Mizuki, but it's not exactly the same! You and Sasuke are quite different!"

With Yukimura's current comprehension ability, it is impossible to figure out the relationship at all, and Mizuki can only be vague.

"I see, I really want to see this Sasuke!"

"I'll give you a chance to meet him in the future..."

"That's good." Yukimura smiled innocently, and in a blink of an eye, he was attracted by the food in his hand.

...

In Konoha Village, Tsunade walked into the super-large database that can only be accessed with the permission of Hokage. Beside the desk surrounded by a large number of bookshelves, a ninja with black curly hair and red eyes was at the desk reading through the piles on the table in front of him. Lao Gao's information, and a focused attitude, didn't wake up until Tsunade approached.

"Master Tsunade."

The female ninja stood up and hurriedly saluted.

Tsunade nodded and asked, "Hong, how is it, is there any gain?"

Originally red eyes, because of overuse, added a lot of blood. Hong Yuhi shook his head regretfully: "There is no similar record, it seems that the technique is even weirder than imagined!"
