The so-called treasure is not gold or silver, but a geothermal generator developed by Kazahana Sōsetsu with all his efforts.
This device can melt the snow and restore the warmth of spring to Land of Snow.
At that time, Dotō launched the rebellion because he mistakenly believed that his brother had hidden huge wealth, but he did not know that the real treasure was far more valuable than money.
"Interesting," Yūto rubbed his chin and thought to himself, "A heating system of this scale requires at least a Tailed Beast level energy core drive. Where does this guy get the energy?"
Curiosity drove him to nod readily. "Okay, it will just open the eyes of the little guys."
On the road, Quan walked beside Yūto and asked curiously, "Sir Yūto, are we going to do any mission?"
Yūto thought for a moment, "It's not a task, it's just to see the scenery."
Chino curled his lips when he heard Yūto's answer, "What a liar! Land of Snow Nothing but snow is ice, why would you go all the way to see the snow?"
After coming to Land of Snow for so many days, she had seen enough of the snowy scenery, and now she just wanted to stay warm indoors and didn't want to go out.
Yūto smiled mysteriously and did not answer Chino's doubts.
Sōsetsu personally held the wind lantern to lead the way, and everyone came to the circular Valley.
Sōsetsu stopped and squatted next to his daughter, "Koyuki, can I borrow your hexagonal ice crystal?"
Kazahana Koyuki nodded immediately and took out the pendant from his clothes that his father gave him some time ago.
Sōsetsu The result was immediately placed in an unknown device. With a soft click, the hexagonal ice crystals were embedded perfectly.
In an instant, the entire Valley shook, the snow on the rock wall melted like an ebbing tide, and green grass buds broke out of the ground at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The rainbow was born from the steam and turned into a dome covering Valley, like a miracle.
"Spring, it's spring!" Kazahana Koyuki Princess This was the first time I saw scenery other than snow.
And Chino Izumi also opened his mouth wide. Although it was not the first time to see spring, it was the first time for such a rapid and drastic change.
Even Itachi, who had always been calm, lost control of his expression.
Yūto looked at Valley who had come back to life, and was a little surprised. This was indeed like a miracle, and it was definitely not something that ordinary Chakra could support.
He leaned close to Sōsetsu's ear, lowered his voice and asked, "Where does the energy of this thing come from? Land of Snow shouldn't have such a level of Chakra source."
Sōsetsu visibly stiffened upon hearing this, his eyes a little erratic, "This involves state secrets..."
"Oh?" Yūto raised his eyebrows and was about to say something, when Sōsetsu actually revealed the secret directly.
He sighed and began to recall the past.
"When I was young, I once discovered a root-shaped mineral vein underground at Land of Snow."
"However, this vein is not any known mineral, but contains huge energy, so I came up with the idea of harnessing this energy."
"Just a few months ago, I completed this heating unit."
Yūto was suddenly stunned when he heard the key word tree root.
In Shinobi World, the two words tree roots and huge energy together can easily make people think of one thing, that is God Tree.
Yūto had some vague guesses in his mind, maybe there were some God Tree roots underneath the Land of Snow ground.
Just like Rōran.
A long time ago, Yūto once thought about what Dragon Vein of Rōran is. It not only contains a large amount of Chakra, but also has the ability to distort time and space. It is just like Ōtsutsuki Clan's Noble Phantasm.
Now he can probably confirm that the underground areas of both countries were once areas where God Tree grew.
The children were having fun, but it was getting late. Sōsetsu looked at the time and said gently to Kazahana Koyuki:
"Koyuki, it's time to go back."
Kazahana Koyuki was having a lively chat with Chino and Quan. When he heard that he wanted to go back, he immediately pouted and said dissatisfied:
"No! It took a lot of effort to make friends. I want to play for a while longer!"
Sōsetsu frowned slightly and spoke in a more serious tone:
"Koyuki, you are Princess of Land of Snow. You cannot be willful like ordinary children. You must have rules."
Kazahana Koyuki became even more unhappy when he heard this. He twisted his face and said angrily:
"Humph! Dad is the most annoying! Ignore you!"
Sōsetsu Seeing her losing her temper, she sighed helplessly, knelt down and coaxed softly:
"Okay, okay, don't be angry. You can continue playing when we get back to the Daimyō's Mansion, okay?"
Kazahana Koyuki's eyes lit up, he immediately turned his head and asked in surprise:
"Really?"
Sōsetsu smiled and nodded:
"Of course it's true."
Kazahana Koyuki immediately threw himself into his father's arms and rubbed it happily:
"Daddy is the best! I love daddy the most!"
Sōsetsu hugged her daughter, feeling warm in her heart and with a doting smile on her face.
It was late at night, after the children had gone to bed, Yūto found Sōsetsu and said bluntly:
"Sir Sōsetsu, we will set off back to Konoha early tomorrow morning."
Sōsetsu was a little surprised, but politely asked to stay:
"So soon? Why not stay a few more days and let Koyuki get along with them more?"
Yūto shook his head:
"The mission has been completed, we have other things to deal with."
Sōsetsu saw that he was resolute, so he stopped insisting and nodded:
"Well, I wish you a safe journey."
Early the next morning, Yūto took Chino, Quan and Itachi and set off early without disturbing anyone.
When Kazahana Koyuki got up and ran to Chino Izumi excitedly, he found that their room was already empty.
She froze on the spot and asked the maid blankly:
"Where are they?"
The maid replied respectfully:
"Your Highness Princess, Konoha Ninja have left."
Kazahana Koyuki's eyes turned red, tears almost fell, and he turned around and ran to find his father.
Sōsetsu was dealing with government affairs. When he saw his daughter rushing in, he quickly put down the documents in his hands.
"Dad! Chino Izumi and the others are gone! Why didn't you wake me up?"
Sōsetsu looked at Kazahana Koyuki who was crying silently, felt sorry for her and Earth Flow went over and gently touched her head.
"Koyuki, don't be sad..."
Kazahana Koyuki lowered his head and squatted in the corner with tears falling to the ground.
"Why did they leave without saying goodbye... did they not like me?"
Sōsetsu sighed, squatted down, and explained softly:
"No, they like you very much. It's just that they don't want to see you sad, so they choose to leave quietly."
Kazahana Koyuki raised his head, his eyes were red, and he choked with sobs:
"But... but this makes me feel even sadder!"
Sōsetsu held her in his arms distressedly and coaxed softly:
"Daddy, would you like to play with you? What do you want to play?"
Kazahana Koyuki shook his head, tears still falling down uncontrollably, and whispered:
"It's different... I want to play with them..."
Sōsetsu Seeing that she was still so sad, there was nothing she could do for a while.
He thought for a moment, suddenly had an idea, and tentatively said:
"Then... let's do this. After a while, dad will take you to visit Konoha. Then you can meet them, okay?"
Kazahana Koyuki raised his head suddenly, tears still hanging on his face, but his eyes were already bright:
"Really?!"
Sōsetsu smiled and nodded:
"Really, when did dad lie to you?"
Kazahana Koyuki finally burst into laughter, hugged his father, and rubbed him happily:
"Daddy is the best! Then when should we go?"
Sōsetsu rubbed her hair and said lovingly:
"We will set off after Land of Snow's affairs are arranged."
