Shinki's Era
When Naruto returned from his flight, he found that Killer B, who should have been standing in the center of the circle, was gone.
The remaining animals, like devout believers, knelt before the Shinki, worshipping it with utmost devotion!
Where's Uncle Killer B? (‧_‧?)
"That didn't count! He cheated! I want to compete against him again! (′д`σ)σ"
Shinki raised his hand, pointing in the direction where Killer B had flown.
Naruto looked in the direction the Shinki was pointing and saw a broken tree and a long drag mark!
The drag marks on the ground alone were tens of meters long!
Naruto: (Ő∀Ő)
"Did you do this?" Naruto asked.
Shinki nodded.
Naruto: "Did you activate Sage Mode? Or the Eight Gates? Did you Susanoo?! It was just a fall, it can't be that serious!! ∑(°Д°ノ)ノ"
Shinki:(ーー゛)
"I simply used Chakra to strengthen my torso."
"It's a modified version of the Yin Seal, don't you know how to do that too? (￣⊥￣)"
Naruto: o_O
He knows how to use the Yin Seal, but isn't this improvement on the Shinki a bit too outrageous?!
Pushing an ordinary person aside would be one thing, but the problem is that the other person is Jinchūriki!!
What's so special about Shinki?
Achieving physical immortality! Directly confronting Tailed Beast!
=͟͟͞͞(꒪ᗜ꒪ ‧̣̥̇)
"Put your jaw down, don't be so surprised. Learn Medical Ninjutsu from me for a couple more days, and you'll be able to do it too. (￢∀￢)σ" Shinki stepped forward and patted Naruto on the shoulder.
After saying that, he went forward to check on Killer B's injuries.
The sealed space within Killer B's body.
The Eight-Tails Gyuki angrily pinned Killer B's spirit form to the ground. "Why did you have to provoke him in the first place?!" (▼皿▼#)
"Don't you understand what kind of background that kid has yet?! (′д`σ)σ"
Killer B protested his innocence. "I wasn't trying to save face... If the two of us can defeat him, my name, Lord Killer B, will once again resound throughout the Shinobi World!"
Gyuki: "You've forgotten all about the beatings you got back then! ╰(‵□′)╯"
"Beat him! I can tell you with certainty that the current Red-Haired Kid is even better than the God of Shinobi of yesteryear!"
Killer B's eyes widened: (ŐдŐ๑)
"Really? But..."
Gyuki: "There's no 'but' about it! Ծ‸ Ծ "
"What kind of God of Shinobi do you know? A massive amount of Chakra? Or the Shinobi World Wood Release? Or perhaps exceptional battle intelligence?"
"Which of these Shinki doesn't have him? The only thing he hasn't shown is his combat intelligence. The key is, his strength is already so great that he doesn't need combat intelligence anymore!"
"Besides him, have you ever seen any other Ninja who can master the Five Elements Release techniques plus Wood Release, Crystal Release, Dust Release... I can't even count them all!"
"Moreover, he even possesses a pair of Sharingan with the strongest Genjutsu!"
Gyuki's words deeply shook Killer B's soul.
I had only thought that Shinki was powerful, but I had never seriously analyzed his strength.
Now that the Gyuki has said it, it truly is terrifying!
However, after figuring it out, Killer B's expression suddenly changed. "So, am I witnessing the birth of another legend?! ୧⍢⃝୨"
"Moreover, this era is different from the era of the God of Shinobi; there is no one in the Shinki who can rival him!"
"This is an era that belongs only to Shinki!"
Just Killer B was lost in thought, the face of the Shinki came into his view.
"Are you alright? Are you confused from the fall?" Shinki said, intending to use Medical Ninjutsu to check on Killer B's body.
Before he could even move, Killer B sprang up from the ground, grabbed his hand, and exclaimed, "The era that belongs solely to the Shinki! I'm going to write you into my lyrics!"
"That way, the higher you fly, the wider my song will be sung! (≧▽≦)/"
Shinki was filled with doubt. "Did I just bump my head?"
"This is a mental health issue, which falls outside my area of expertise. You'll need to see a specialist psychologist!"
Killer B didn't offer much explanation; after hugging the Shinki, he went back to writing lyrics!
Before leaving, he said, "Three days later, have Motoi take you to the Waterfall of Truth, and we'll officially begin our training!"
"Don't ask me why it's three days later, I'm going into seclusion for three days to focus on writing lyrics! ୧⍢⃝୨"
After Killer B left, Naruto came up to him from behind. "What's wrong, Uncle? Did losing to you upset you?"
Shinki shook his head. "It shouldn't be that bad. Jinchūriki endured so much prejudice as a child, yet he's still alive and well..."
The Land of Fire, the Daimyo 'Reception Room.
With the Fourth Shinobi World War imminent, Tsunade proactively sought out the Land of Fire Daimyo.
The Land of Fire Daimyo was a somewhat effeminate middle-aged man who wore a strangely shaped tall crown.
At this moment, he said, "You need funds? Doesn't your Konoha have plenty of money in its accounts?"
Tsunade looked speechless. "This battle is of utmost importance, and there is a great deal of preparation involved. That little bit of money is just Waterwheel."
The Daimyo, holding a fan, looked displeased and continued, "Speaking of the great war, I have a question. This war has had many consequences. Why did you start the war without informing me? Does Konoha still want to stay in the Land of Fire?"
Tsunade:(▼ヘ▼#)
She clenched and unclenched her fist imperceptibly. She had a fiery temper and wasn't very good at dealing with politics. This Daimyo spoke in a sarcastic tone, making one want to punch him in the face!
Finally, for the sake of the Ninja Village's stability, Tsunade patiently replied, "The Five Kage Summit was an emergency. Originally, we only planned to form an allied Allied Shinobi Forces to Akatsuki in one fell Madara Uchiha to suddenly appear and declare war."
"Furthermore, Ninja Villages and nations are interdependent. For the Daimyo to say this, does he mean Konoha is a vassal of the Land of Fire? (｡•ˇ‸ˇ•｡)"
Upon hearing this, the Daimyo was speechless for a moment, then shook his fan and said, "Alright, I understand. You may leave now."
"By the way, we must send a Ninja team to protect the Daimyo's Residence's residence during wartime!"
After hearing Tsunade slammed her hand on the conference table with a loud "bang!"
"The Daimyo knows that this battle is of great importance. If we lose because we lack funds and supplies, the Daimyo should consider the consequences..."
After saying that, Tsunade snorted coldly and walked out of the Reception Room.
Looking at the spot where Tsunade had left, the Daimyo nonchalantly waved his fan, saying, "I don't know what the people of Konoha were thinking, choosing such a hot-tempered Hokage. His looks are passable, though..."
The attendant beside him asked, "Daimyo, what about the allocation of funds to Konoha...?"
The Daimyo replied, "Yes, war is no small matter; what is due must be given."
Outside the Reception Room, Mitokado and Utatane Koharu were waiting.
Seeing Tsunade leave, Utatane Koharu, asked first, "How did it go? Did the Daimyo agree to allocate funds?"
Mitokado Homura nearby, said, "Just look at Tsunade's expression, and you know the outcome... The Land of Fire takes a cut from Konoha's mission fees every year, and now that they need the money, why is it so difficult to get them to part with some of it..."
