Konoha: Sage Body

Tsunade instantly burst into flames at the sound and stood up so violently that the wine glass in her hand fell to the ground, spilling wine all over the place.

She looked left and right, and with all her might extended her senses, but still found nothing.

The appearance of that voice just now, she was absolutely not mistaken, that was exactly the voice of Hattori Masanari who had just left, this bastard actually didn't die and came back here again, and lurked over in an even more stealthy manner.

"Stop searching, I'm talking to your brain, you can interpret it as talking to you with a jutsu similar to your Yamanaka clan's Mind Body Transmission Technique, except that it requires a bit of extra conditions to do so, but the range of transmission is even better."

A moment later, Kirito's voice appeared in Tsunade's mind once more.

"Suspend your jutsu immediately, or else I will consider this as a provocation from your Amegakure against our Konoha, you should be well aware of my energy in the Konoha, and your offending me is worse than offending Kumogakure."

Tsunade replied with a frosty face, her voice revealing a deep killing intent.

As a top medical ninja, her own understanding and manipulation of chakra was more powerful than most Kage-Level powerhouses, and she had just carefully and meticulously examined her body once more, and she had not found a single bit of fae chakra at all.

The Yamanaka clan's Mind Body Transmission Technique, of course she knew about it, and had even studied it.

This kind of ninjutsu essentially needs to inject Yin Release Chakra into another person's body in order to be able to successfully activate it, but there was not a single bit of Fae Chakra in her body at all.

So she knew clearly that what the other party had just said was simply nonsense, and that the other party's methods were even more brilliant and bizarre than imagined.

She didn't want her body to be left with anything by the other party.

Moreover, from what the other party had just said, this damn Ame-Nin was able to eavesdrop on her even if he wasn't here.

This was too scary, if the other party's jutsu could listen to her covertly at all times, wouldn't there be a lot of secrets all taken by the other party without her realizing it?

"Ugh~, I really don't mean anything else, I just want to have a good chat with you."

In the next moment, Kirito's voice appeared in Tsunade's mind once again.

Then, under Tsunade's shocked gaze, Hattori Masanari came out of the bottle of wine she had placed on the table, except that this Hattori Masanari was clearly some kind of special clone, and his skin was much paler than his original self.

Spore clone.

This was a special clone technique that Kirito had developed by combining the White Zetsu clone's Spore technique with the clone technique, a technique that completely sacrificed the clone's combat prowess and added all of its attributes to stealth.

"This is my sincerity, Princess Konoha, could you let me speak to you."

Kirito said with a smile.

But as soon as he finished speaking, a fist hit him hard, and the spore clone, whose combat power was only at the level of an ordinary person, was instantly killed and quickly withered into a pile of ashes.

"What kind of clone technique is this? That Hattori Masari can actually create such a stealthy clone out of it, I don't know if this kind of clone jutsu can be learned or not, if the learning conditions are not high, then Amegakure's spying power would be too terrifying."

After Tsunade punched Kirito's spore clone to death, she then looked at the wine bottle on the table and said with an ugly face.

Just now that wine bottle, after she got her hands on it, she actually had carefully observed it, but she didn't find any abnormality at all at that time, thus it can be seen that this clone technique of this Hattori Masanari is extremely stealthy, and it is really impossible to defend against it ah.

"Alas ~, Konoha Princess, don't be so angry, these clones of mine are not easy to make ah, please don't kill them ruthlessly, I really don't have any malicious intent, on the contrary, I came with full sincerity to talk to you and the Konoha behind you."

Soon, Kirito's voice appeared in Tsunade's mind once again.

"He still has clones with me!"

Tsunade's face grew more and more ugly when she heard this voice, and she decisively and ruthlessly drank the wine from the bottle in one gulp before throwing the glass as well as the wine glass outside with force.

However, Konoha's voice still did not abort, "This jutsu of mine is not that easy to break, Princess of the Konoha, your perception is too low to see through this jutsu of mine, not to mention you, none of the Konoha ninjas in this barracks can detect my clone."

This sentence naturally had an element of bragging.

The reason why the spore clone's stealth ability was so powerful was because it possessed a trace of the power of the God Tree that the White Zetsu clone possessed, and could utilize natural energy for camouflage.

The ninja's perception ability is usually launched by chakra, while chakra and natural energy are two very different energies, relying on chakra to launch perception jutsu to be able to discover natural energy would be odd, ninjas who want to discover the spore clone can only rely on the perception ability formed by natural energy.

Therefore, in this military camp, there is still someone who can discover his White Zetsu clone, that is Jiraiya.

Unfortunately, Jiraiya had not learned the art well, his cultivation of natural energy could only be said to be barely introductory, he could perceive natural energy, but his use of natural energy was very poor, or else he wouldn't need to unleash the Two Lives technique to rely on the two great Sages to gather natural energy for him when he entered Sage Mode.

With Kirito's current Sage Mode ability, his own understanding of natural energy is of course far stronger than Jiraiya's, unless Jiraiya enters Mt. Myōboku's Sage Mode and drastically improves his sensing ability, it is impossible to discover his spore clone by relying on that half-assed natural energy sensing ability in his normal state alone.

"It's impossible for Konoha to support you Amegakure, that's the answer I can give you now, immediately, evacuate all the clones you've left here with me, or I'll make you regret it later."

Tsunade was furious when she saw that Kirito was not finished, and she decisively gave Kirito an ultimatum.

Personally, she extremely disliked the way she was forced to communicate, even if she knew full well that the other party had no choice but to do so.

"Sister's nature is still the same as always, she likes to be straight to the point, unfortunately, this is the only way I can communicate with you in this capacity now, after all, communicating with you in the normal way will definitely be noticed by a large group of people, it's hard not to leak secrets."

Kirito noticed Tsunade's anger at this point and sighed in his heart.

He had no choice but to come up with some dry goods to defuse Tsunade's hostility for a bit, "The Roots left behind after Danzo's death are colluding with your new Roots in Konoha."

As soon as this news appeared, the anger in Tsunade's heart was instantly extinguished, to the point that a chill arose in her heart, making her body go a little cold.

Regarding the old Root that he had left behind after Danzo's death, she naturally did not turn a blind eye to it just because Danzo had died, on the contrary, she had always secretly mobilized the Senju clan's power to investigate the old Root.

Unfortunately, the Senju clan's power was already severely weakened, in Konoha and even Land of Fire is okay, there are still many eyes and ears, but out of the Land of Fire, the Senju clan's influence is drastically reduced, and it is difficult to find Root's whereabouts.

The only thing that was known was that this old Root hadn't been torn apart after Danzo's death, but had broken away from Konoha's control and lurked in the darkness.

This was something that had always stuck in her throat.

She knew exactly why Danzo had died; the man had been killed by their Senju clan in conjunction with a mysterious Kage-Level powerhouse.

The Old Root was an organization Danzo had created, and those who worshipped and were brainwashed by him were abound within.

Unsurprisingly, this dark organization that was born because of Konoha's nurturing darkness would surely retaliate in the future, and the target of their retaliation would of course be the Senju clan, and in that case, Nawaki and Kirito would be the target of their retaliation as well.

She was more at ease with Kirito now, but she was not at all at ease with Nawaki.

With the power of the old Root, if they specifically targeted Nawaki, then with Nawaki's current strength, she was afraid that he would die ten deaths.

Now, she learned from Hattori Masanari that the Old Root Division and Konoha's newly created New Root Division have colluded, its possible not to worry, if this news is true, then Nawaki is not 100% safe even if he stays in Konoha ah.

Also, the new Root was newly created by Sandaime by having two Hokage advisors, essentially the new Root is still in Sandaime's hands.

If the old Root and the new Root were really colluding, wouldn't that mean that her beloved teacher had still been in contact with the old Root.

For a while, Tsunade's mind was in turmoil, and a deep uneasiness gripped her heart.

The reason she thought that what Hattori Masanari had said was true was due to the fact that the special clone technique this guy had just displayed had strong espionage abilities, as well as the fact that this person was now obviously cornered to reveal such an important piece of information to get her attention.

"What else do you know?"

Tsunade took a deep breath and was silent for a moment, calming herself back down as much as possible before inquiring.

"The Wood Release program, that's all I can say for now, so we might as well talk about Amegakure and Konoha for now."

Seeing that Tsunade had finally stopped resisting communicating with him in this manner, Kirito threw out a little more bait before beginning to negotiate with Tsunade.

Because of the fact that both his main body and clone had been quite busy some time ago, he hadn't paid much attention to Danzo, the dark organization left behind after his death.

After all, Danzo is dead, and this dark organization that has lost its snakehead is basically out of shape.

In the original plot, as soon as Danzo died, Root was immediately torn apart, and a large number of ninjas controlled by Danzo with the Seal of Tongue Scourge Root Jedi defected and were frantically suppressed by Konoha, quickly becoming a period of Konoha's history that was considered taboo.

But probably because he, a butterfly that accidentally intruded into the Shinobi world flaps its wings a little too much, Danzo is even more cunning than in the original plot, he seems to have anticipated that he would die, and left a backhanded move in Root ahead of time, leading to the fact that even if he dies, Root can still function normally and react quickly.

The core members quickly withdrew from the konoha and dispersed to lurk in various parts of the Shinobi world.

Also, Danzo had apparently studied his mastery of Spirit Transformation Technique and developed corresponding jutsu that could block the soul's perception, resulting in him not being able to utilize Spirit Transformation Technique's special sensing of souls to locate Root's core members as well as their base camp.

It was only in recent times when people from this organization gradually began to conduct activities in Konoha again that he found another opportunity to spy on these people again, and then discovered quite a few secrets.

Such as the Wood Release and Sharingan program.

Another example is that the son of the Sandaime named Sarutobi Takashi colluded with the old Root to mess things up, or to come after him.

Another example is a konoha rogue ninja named Hiruho becoming the leader of the old Root division today.

Tsunade's heart was once again shaken when she heard Kirito speak of the Wood Release program.

For the Wood Release program, she had heard of it, since his grandfather died, the Wood Release was lost, but the Wood Release was the powerful Bloodline Limit of his grandfather's reign in the Ninja Realm, in order for the Konoha to regain the power of the Wood Release, the Konoha had once secretly launched a Wood Release program.

The Senju clan was a key participant in this program, and many of their clan members and Konoha ninja sacrificed their lives for this program, which turned out to be a failure.

Now that this program had been started again, what must have accompanied it was the dreadful human experiments, and there was no telling how many people would die this time.

But what worried her more was that Root's people would most likely strike at Nawaki.

Because he and Nawaki were the ones who truly inherited their grandfather's Wood Release Bloodline Limit lineage, if there was anyone in Konoha who was most likely to awaken a Bloodline Limit like Wood Release, it would definitely be the two siblings.

Tsunade at this point found another reason why the old Root would take a shot at Nawaki.

She was eager to get more information about the Root from Hattori Masanari at this time, but in the end, she didn't lose her mind and make promises haphazardly because of her haste, and replied earnestly, "I'm not a Hokage, if you want to talk about Amegakure and the Konoha, I suggest that you go to my teacher, the Sandaime, with your current ability, you shouldn't be worried about not being able to retreat in one piece from the Konoha, should you? "

"But you're Kirito Tosaka's sister."

Kirito immediately said when he heard Tsunade say that.

"This matter has nothing to do with Kirito, don't even think about hitting on my brother."

Tsunade said in a chilling voice as she heard Hattori Masanari intend to bring Kirito into this.

She had forced herself to talk to Hattori Masanari for the sake of Nawaki, her younger brother, but there was absolutely no way she would betray her other brother because of it.

"Don't worry, I have no ill will towards your brother, and I wouldn't dare to bear the slightest malice towards this powerful man who killed the Sandaime Kazekage tonight, on the contrary, I am full of goodwill towards him."

Kirito said sincerely.

Tsunade didn't believe Kirito's bullshit about Hattori Masanari, who was now using the vestigial Hattori Masanari played by the White Zetsu clone, laughed coldly, then quickly made up her mind and once again sent off her guest, "If you're planning to involve Kirito in your Amegakure and Kumogakure's war, then our exchanges will end here."

"Sister really does have a heart for me."

Kirito's heart warmed when he saw Tsunade defending herself so well.

Then, he pretended to be helpless and said, "Princess Konoha, don't keep thinking about the bad parts of Konoha's involvement in the war between Amegakure and Kumogakure, let me get to the good parts, I can assure you that it's good for your Konoha, as well as your two younger brothers."

Tsunade hadn't intended to listen for fear that if she did, she would be swayed by the other's words, but hearing the other talk about her two brothers, she couldn't help but want to hear how the other would weasel out of it.

"Kirito Tosaka made a big thing tonight will definitely greatly affect the current situation in the Shinobi world, no surprise, Sunagakure is definitely unable to fight with Konoha any more, surrender is doomed, and even their only Kage-Level powerhouse is still in your Konoha right now, and I can't help but say that in a few days, this Kage-Level powerhouse will also follow that Sandaime Kazekage and go away.

When that time comes, the defeat of Sunagakure is doomed, and you have defeated Sunagakure and won the war, you can certainly get a lot of benefits from Sunagakure, and you also have Kirito Tosaka, this amazing talent genius ninja, the future rise is almost a nail in the coffin.

However, I believe that the other major ninja villages in the Shinobi world will never give you Konoha the time to develop peacefully, they don't want Konoha to dominate the Shinobi world once again, and they haven't united against you Konoha yet simply because there is still distrust between each other, and the time is not ripe yet.

Once they realize that they can't stop Konoha from re-emerging on their own, it's only a matter of time before they unite against Konoha. Do you think that with Konoha's current strength they will be able to deal with Kumogakure, Iwagakure, and Kirigakure at the same time.

I'm sure that these three ninja villages uniting against Konoha is just the beginning, there are still many other ninja villages and countries in the Shinobi world that don't want Konoha and the Land of Fire to re-emerge."

Seeing that Tsunade didn't say anything else to chase him away, Kirito began to speak slowly, giving Tsunade a chance to analyze the future direction of Konoha.

If another person had told her about the future of Konoha, Tsunade would have disdained it in her heart and would have taken it as gibberish, but the person who was telling her this now was the head of Amegakure intelligence who had written the Will of Rain, so his words must have been valuable.

What's more, she personally felt that the other party's analysis made sense after hearing it.

His younger brother Kirito Tosaka was indeed a genius who could bring Konoha back to dominate the Shinobi world, because she had already seen her grandfather's shadow in him, and at only 11 years of age, he could kill a Kage-Level powerhouse, so wouldn't he be able to slaughter Kage-level powerhouses like dogs in the future.

She didn't see her grandpa in action, but from some of the stories her grandma told her, she knew how powerful her grandpa was in the Warring States era, and how he could beat a Kage-Level powerhouse of his teacher's caliber without much pressure.

Thinking that Kirito can bring Konoha back to glory in the future, she couldn't help but feel some excitement and anticipation in her heart.

However, Hattori Masanari is right, the other major ninja villages are unlikely to stand by and watch Konoha re-emerge, they will definitely take action against Konoha in the process of revitalizing Konoha, and may actually abandon their former grudges and unite together to deal with Konoha.

The current situation of Konoha, she is still personally clear, the strength is indeed the strongest ninja village in the ninja world, but said to deal with the three major ninja villages of Kumogakure, Iwagakure and Kirigakure at the same time, that is impossible.

Moreover, Konoha now has a lot of internal contradictions, not only the contradiction between Senju clan and Sarutobi clan, but also the contradiction left behind by Uchiha clan in Konoha's history, because of the existence of these contradictions, Konoha is difficult to completely mobilize all the forces to unite to the outside world.

"It seems that Princess Konoha is recognizing the future analysis that I made on Konoha, it is destined to rise again, but the process is arduous, if it can't hold out, Konoha might not be there, so I think if Konoha wants to rise again, then it must learn from the other ninja villages, and unite with all the friends that can be enlisted to share the pressure brought by the process of rising, Amegakure is right now very much wants to be a friend of Konoha."

Kirito could see that Tsunade agreed with what he had just said, and he decisively struck while the iron is hot by bringing out Amegakure.
