The Light of Justice, the Strong Tree
They currently have fewer than 10 teams, so how to defend against Kirigakure and Sunagakure causing trouble is a problem.
As the person in charge here, Shuichi still has no chance to rest, truly showing how much he cares about Konoha.
"Let's do it here!"
He walked with Hyuga Hizashi Hyuga to the very center of the wooded area, stretching as he said to the latter, "Tonight's reconnaissance will mainly rely on you. I'll arrange the perimeter defenses starting tomorrow."
"No problem, Shuichi-kun!"
Hizashi's life was saved by Shuichi. If Shuichi hadn't stood up and spoken out against the provocation from Kumogakure, Main Family.
Although he didn't make any obvious gestures of defection, Hizashi was definitely a staunch supporter of Shuichi.
Shuichi soft breath, clasped his hands together in a hand Hand Seals, Earth Release: Earth Flow City Wall!
Boom boom--
The nearby Konoha Ninja felt the ground tremble and turned to look at the center, where a nearly 100-meter-high, several-meter-diameter earthen pillar rose from the ground, standing tall and majestic.
"This is what you call the least favorable attribute?" The monkey was practically wetting himself. Such Earth Release is a type of technique) is more than worthy of the title "Red-Topped Mountain Shaker." Lord Shuichi is far too modest.
Shuichi stood on the high ground and looked around. He felt that the view was very clear and there was a breeze blowing from time to time, which was much cooler than below.
Actually, the chakra consumption of this Earth Release isn't that much; the total amount is probably less than the beautiful training scenery that Yamato created for Naruto. Given his current strength, he should use it sparingly.
Byakugan!
Hizashi began to sense things beside him, while Shuichi lay on the ground resting. The two would take turns at fixed times.
This seemingly arrogant Earth Release was a warning to Kirigakure and Sunagakure. Even if they were too foolish to guess that Shuichi was there, they would understand that Konoha had even higher-level experts in charge...
It was very quiet, and remained quiet until the early hours of the morning.
But after the two changed shifts for the third time, Hizashi suddenly spoke up, "Someone's coming... There are three ninjas wandering outside the area, slowly moving deeper in."
Shuichi raised an eyebrow, not noticing because of the distance.
Or perhaps he didn't exert his full strength to cover areas outside the designated zone; after all, he's a human, not a machine.
The Byakugan is indeed more convenient for reconnaissance. At the same time, the Hizashi's observation range is abnormally long, nearly 2 kilometers, which Akiha might not be able to reach.
The night was long, Shuichi didn't want to kill anyone anymore. Konoha valued peace above all else!
So he took out a Scroll from his person, and under the curious gaze of the Hizashi, produced a huge, thick, and sturdy "cannon barrel."
It's a full 1.5 meters long, and when Shuichi arm around the cannon barrel, he couldn't even bring his hand to his waist, so it certainly looked quite heavy.
Hizashi refrained from asking what it was, but Shuichi kindly explained, "This is a new product developed by my company, High-Pressure Xenon Searchlight!"
Shuichi struggled a bit, reaching down with his other hand. "Goodness, this thing is huge! The switch is a little hard to reach, haha!"
Click!
A distinct mechanical sound rang out, and a beam of light pierced the darkness, shooting straight into the distance.
After asking Hizashi where the three spies were, Shuichi stiffly turned his body and shone the headlights on one of the guys hiding in the bushes, with only half of his head showing.
The Mist Ninja, who wasn't wearing Forehead Protector, was still debating whether to approach further when suddenly a blinding white light shone from the distant sky.
The ground within a radius of several meters centered on him was as bright as day, like a dancer about to perform on a stage.
Mist Ninja: "..."
The light stopped moving, but due to the distance, it inevitably swayed a bit, though it quickly moved to another location.
"Perhaps it's just a coincidence..."
Before the Mist Ninja wonder if he had been exposed, the bright white light suddenly shone precisely on him, paused for two seconds, then moved away, then shone on him again, and moved away again...
I couldn't even play more than 10 times!
When the light shone for the fifth time, targeting the Mist Ninja who had moved to a tree to hide but was still being locked on, the man could no longer bear it and turned to leave without looking back.
Soon, not quite satisfied, Shuichi repeated the same method to "search" for two more infiltrators.
It successfully brought complete silence to the surrounding area.
"Oh dear, I was too hasty!"
Xiuyi smashed his mouth, put away the hot headlight, and said sadly, "It seems that no one will come again tonight", and then he lay down to rest in a "tai" position.
Hizashi: "..."
In the following week, Kirigakure and Sunagakure might still be unwilling to give up and want to try to get closer to the Seven Star Tree area.
You could Shuichi batch of Flying Thunder God Kunai to all the Konoha Ninja, and boldly have everyone spread out and stand evenly at the edge of the forest.
The nearby trees were all covered with ink-stained cameras, and he sat in the center, using his terrifying amount of chakra to maintain order.
No matter where the enemy approaches from, the Purple Aurora will appear before them first.
Seeing the man's ever-present presence, neither villager dared to make a move, no matter how distressed they were.
What the hell is this? Why are you everywhere? Aren't you tired...?
After several days without discovering any more sneaky individuals, Shuichi group soon received good news: the second large contingent from the village had successfully arrived.
A total of 20 ninja teams handed over their defensive duties to them, and professional tree growers arrived, allowing their team to finally return to the village.
"Lord Shuichi, I'm so sorry to bother you at this time." The Konoha Ninja, dressed as a full-body researcher, said in a respectful and obsequious tone, "Could you please inject some chakra? The village needs to observe and record the changes in the Seven Star Tree."
"You've already started with 'village,' how could I possibly refuse?"
Shuichi deadpan expression, complained, placing one hand on the Seven Star Tree and channeling chakra, "How come it hasn't changed at all after I gave it so much?"
The researcher explained, "Although this tree grows much faster than normal varieties, it still needs regular watering and maintenance."
"The quantity and quality of the injected chakra primarily affect the effectiveness of the Chakra Paper, for example, this one that you injected..."
Shuichi quickly figured it out: the tree's branches grew very fast, and once they were fully grown, they would be cut down and used as one of the raw materials for papermaking pulp.
The better the chakra fed during the growth process, the better the finished Chakra Paper will be.
The Explosive Tag sold in the village vary in price, ranging from several hundred to several thousand taels of silver, depending on the power of the Ninjutsu they can withstand.
This technology is already well-developed, and the ninjas won't waste the potential of every Chakra Paper.
Cheap Explosive Tag might not even kill someone if detonated close to them, and even stacked together, they wouldn't be as effective as a single expensive tag. Yet, this segment of the market happens to be the village's main sales driver.
Because the large number of ordinary ninjas simply cannot afford good goods worth thousands of taels, and they only earn a few thousand taels for each mission, they would probably starve to death if they ran out of money.
Therefore, cultivating the Seven Star Tree doesn't really require many experts; the chakra output of Chunin typical Chunin is just right to meet the needs of most noobs.
"Okay, that makes sense..." Shuichi was speechless.
With his perfectionist nature, he wanted to grow every tree to be plump and strong, and the Explosive Tag he made were all of extreme power.
However, Shuichi himself knew this was unlikely, so he couldn't bear to see the saplings being harvested while malnourished.
He immediately set off with three team members on their journey back to Konoha.
