Hotel living room.
Four people from Team 7 sat down around the dining table.
But it's not for a meal, but a small meeting.
"Kakashi-sensei."
Shihui Aburame took out a scroll and said, "This is the secret mission assigned to us by the teacher."
"No wonder Lord Hokage wants us to go on a mission to Sunagakure."
Kakashi Hatake was slightly startled, with a look of surprise on his face.
He had wondered before, how could this kind of work of connecting with Sunagakure be handed over to Team 7?
Now he understood that the drunkard was not interested in drinking.
"Dragon Veins?"
Kakashi Hatake opened the scroll and immediately fell into memories.
When he was young, he followed the young man Minato Namikaze on a mission to Dragon Vein.
But the details have been forgotten. I only remember that the dragon vein was sealed in the end.
It's not actually forgotten.
In the original work, in order to avoid affecting the future, Minato Namikaze erased all memories, including himself.
"What is dragon vein?"
Karin asked curiously, "Shinobi World Do dragons really exist?"
"Dragon Vein is the lifeblood of the earth. Simply put, it is the aggregate of Chakra."
Shihui Aburame answered casually.
Suddenly his heart moved.
Kakashi Hatake discussed with him how to add Chakra before.
This dragon vein might do the trick.
As for Chakra, Shihui Aburame is of no use unless it is Natural Energy.
Logically speaking, the collection of dragon veins should be Natural Energy.
But the interpretation of it in the original work does contain a lot of Chakra.
But think about it carefully, if it is Natural Energy, how can Mukade be used?
You can only see it with your own eyes as to how it works.
"Isn't that the same as Tailed Beast?"
Karin suddenly became excited and asked, "So our mission is to bring back the dragon vein? It seems that it's time for me, Sealing Jutsu, to play my role again!"
Kakashi Hatake let out a light sigh.
This method sounds quite feasible.
But the dragon vein is not Tailed Beast after all, and sealing it rashly would be very risky.
"According to Lord Hokage's investigation, a traitor named Mukade has recently been eyeing Dragon Vein."
Kakashi Hatake closed the scroll and said, "Let's find him first."
"Already found it, just now."
Shihui Aburame said with a smile.
So fast?
Kakashi Hatake looked at him subconsciously.
"This is the information given to me by Gaara."
Shihui Aburame opened a map and said, "Mukade has been living near Rōran Ruins since he defected from Sunagakure."
"That's it."
Kakashi Hatake quickly figured out the cause and effect, and said with admiration, "As expected of Lord Hokage."
It's all connected.
In order to complete the task of Mukade, Gaara was replaced by Kazekage?
No, this is more like a plan that kills two birds with one stone.
"Get ready, we'll leave in fifteen minutes."
Kakashi Hatake finished his brainstorming and continued.
Fifteen minutes passed quickly.
The four people were fully armed, especially wearing coats to prevent wind and sand. Following the directions on the map, they rushed to Rōran Ruins.
"This is it."
Kakashi Hatake looked at the ruins in front of him and nodded affirmatively.
In a patch of yellow sand, white buildings are scattered randomly.
They are overall thin and long, and look quite metallic and mechanical.
"Karin."
Shihui Aburame looked around and saw that there was nothing else but desert, let alone Mukade.
Mind's Eye of the Kagura!
Karin and Shihui Aburame have developed a tacit understanding.
She closed her eyes directly.
Perception expands.
You can have a panoramic view of the situation for dozens of kilometers.
"Under Rōran Ruins, there is a powerful Chakra reaction. Not surprisingly, it should be the dragon vein."
Karin said, "The dragon's veins are drawn but not released, it's a seal."
"That's what the teacher left."
Kakashi Hatake said with some emotion.
Things are different and people are different.
Returning to Dragon Vein again, the high-spirited Minato Namikaze of the past is no longer there.
What a pity.
Naruto Uzumaki didn't come.
But then I thought about it, it would be better not to come.
It has no meaning other than adding to the sadness.
"Did you find Mukade?"
Shihui Aburame looked at Karin and asked.
"No."
Karin shook his head and said hesitantly, "He may be near the dragon vein. There are too many Chakra there, which interferes with my perception."
Shihui Aburame is thoughtful.
In the original work, the new Team 7 is the Mukade discovered underground under Rōran Ruins.
At that time, he was arranging the technique.
Although he was unable to break the seal of Minato Namikaze, he found another way and tried to absorb it directly.
As a result, the dragon vein was released, and they were involved in the dragon vein and returned to the past.
"Let's go down."
Kakashi Hatake sighed and said, "Although I forgot what happened to Rōran back then, I still remember the location of the teacher's seal."
He walked towards Rōran Ruins.
"So quiet."
Sasuke Uchiha frowned slightly.
"It's the influence of dragon veins."
Kakashi Hatake explained, "Although the dragon vein was sealed, the breath it leaked drove away all nearby life."
After a while, the four people arrived at the center of Rōran Ruins.
"Get down from there."
Kakashi Hatake looked around and quickly found an underground passage.
He jumped down first.
The underground passage, like the buildings above, is made of metal-like material.
Under the leadership of Kakashi Hatake, everyone successfully arrived at the seal of Minato Namikaze.
This is a huge underground hall, surrounded by dark passageways with no end in sight. In the middle, there is a stone platform.
There are four statues on the stone platform, and the statues surround the seal of Minato Namikaze.
An object that looks like an eyeball, with a handful of Flying Thunder God Kunai inserted into it.
"The spells on this earth were not left by the teacher."
Kakashi Hatake suddenly focused his eyes and said, "And it doesn't look like it's finished, it's just a semi-finished product."
"It's Mukade."
Shihui Aburame looked at it and said.
Karin ran in front of Minato Namikaze's seal.
Because she saw a familiar technique.
This is Sealing Jutsu from the Uzumaki Clan.
"That's awesome!"
Karin observed it for a moment and exclaimed in amazement, "How could an outsider master Uzumaki Clan's Sealing Jutsu to such an extent!"
In theory, both Uzumaki Clan and Sealing Jutsu can be learned, but only Uzumaki Clan can truly learn the essence.
But the accomplishments shown by Minato Namikaze and Sealing Jutsu are very terrifying.
And this is not a single Sealing Jutsu, but a composite Sealing Jutsu, with multiple Sealing Jutsus perfectly integrated together.
"That's Fourth Hokage."
Kakashi Hatake said with a proud face, "His talent is something few can match."
"Where did he learn that?"
Karin asked curiously.
If, like them, you learn independently through the Ninjutsu scroll, your talent is really terrifying.
"His wife's name is Kushina Uzumaki, she is the ninja of the Uzumaki Clan."
Kakashi Hatake knew that Karin had just joined Konoha, but did not know Minato Namikaze, so he explained.
"Huh?"
Karin was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up, "Can a ninja from another village also be Mrs. Hokage?"
Kushina Uzumaki, Konoha is not a secret.
After all, she went to school at the Ninja Academy back then.
But knowing that she is Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, there are only a handful of them.
One of the reasons why Kushina Uzumaki can become Mrs. Hokage is that she is Jinchūriki. Of course, this statement is not quite accurate, but on the contrary, it is more reasonable.
It should be that Minato Namikaze became Fourth Hokage, and Kushina Uzumaki's identity played a big role.
"Ah?"
Kakashi Hatake couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
How did you jump from that question to this?
And now Lord Hokage is Tsunade. How can you be Mrs. Hokage?
No, that's not right.
Kakashi Hatake responded.
She is the default next generation Hokage is Shihui Aburame.
"Is that okay?"
Karin looked at him expectantly.
"It's okay, but..."
Kakashi Hatake was interrupted by her before she finished speaking.
"Great!"
Karin was full of energy in an instant.
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Shihui Aburame stepped forward, knocked her on the head, and asked, "Can you unlock this seal?"
Karin immediately calmed down. She looked at the seal and fell into deep thought.
After a few seconds, she felt a little guilty and said, "Not now. My level is not good enough. It will take a few years."
She is too young and has not studied Sealing Jutsu long enough, so she is not as good as Minato Namikaze.
Shihui Aburame was not surprised, he said, "Then find Mukade."
"Are you looking for me?"
Suddenly a deep voice sounded.
But it was soon covered by an even harsher sound.
That's the collision caused by metal hitting the ground.
Shihui Aburame looked up.
Opposite them stood a man in his thirties with a beard and a cold smile on his face.
But the most eye-catching thing is the four huge puppets next to him, which exude a breathtaking atmosphere.
"Konoha, what do you want from me?"
Mukade said calmly.
In addition to the confidence that the puppet brought him, Shihui Aburame, Sasuke Uchiha and Karin look too young.
The only thing that poses a threat is the white hair.
It looks a bit familiar.
But Mukade looked down upon him and did not remember that he was the famous Copy Ninja Kakashi Hatake.
After all, he had only heard of it before and had never seen it in person.
"I should be the one asking you this."
Kakashi Hatake stared with dead eyes and said, "This is the place where the dragon veins are sealed. This is not the place you should come."
"Sealing the dragon's veins? What a waste!"
Mukade's face showed enthusiasm, "You don't know the power of dragon veins at all. With dragon veins, I can unify Shinobi World!"
Shihui Aburame laughed out loud.
He discovered that the villains in this movie all have the dream of unifying Shinobi World.
But the strange thing is that there is no shadow of the five major villages.
"Boy! You are looking for death!"
Mukade noticed his laughter and immediately felt insulted, so he raised his hand.
The bodies of the four puppets have round holes exposed everywhere.
The next second, the Senbon, Kunai, Shuriken and other ninja tools filled the sky like a heavy rain.
Sasuke Uchiha drew his sword out of its sheath with a stern look on his face.
A harsh sound of thunder sounded.
Chidori The blade of the sword is filled with thunder and fire.
Wherever it passed, the ninja tools were cut off and shot away.
"What is this Ninjutsu?"
Mukade was shocked and blurted out.
"That's all you have?"
Sasuke Uchiha is a little disappointed.
He jumped up and headed towards Mukade.
"Asshole!"
Mukade waved his hands, and a huge puppet jumped up on the spot.
In the air, it punched out.
Chakra surrounded it and rolled up air waves, which looked very scary.
Sasuke Uchiha hummed softly.
This momentum is far inferior to Shihui Aburame.
The Thunder Fire Sword in his hand suddenly accelerated.
The white of the sword body and the blue of the lightning are intertwined.
Blue and white enveloped the puppet.
It paused in place.
Then countless sparks exploded, starting from the arm, and various parts were scattered on the ground.
"This is impossible!"
Mukade's pupils shrank, and his face was horrified.
Sasuke Uchiha is very satisfied with his reaction.
This is a normal ninja.
Because he often sparred with Shihui Aburame and Naruto Uzumaki, he forgot that they were perverts in the first place.
Although Mukade is a jounin, he is just an ordinary jounin.
And the puppet master's strength comes from his puppets.
Not much in itself.
The only exception may be the Scorpion.
Because he transformed himself into a puppet and is no longer a human being!
Since you are not a human being, you have no weaknesses.
"Sasuke, control him."
Shihui Aburame sounds a reminder.
He was afraid that Mukade would be hacked to death as soon as Sasuke Uchiha came up.
"Arrogant!"
Mukade was enraged. He waved hard and all three puppets rushed towards Sasuke Uchiha.
In the blink of an eye, he was surrounded.
Under the control of Mukade, the three puppets threw all their punches.
"A useless move."
Sasuke Uchiha turned on Sharingan.
His body shuttled between fists, and the thunder-fire sword in his hand kept moving.
Sparks and lightning all the way.
Sasuke Uchiha landed, looked at Mukade calmly, and then performed a beautiful sword flower.
The next second, behind him, three puppets fell down one after another, splashing dust all over the ground.
Shihui Aburame I can only say that this wave of operations is overwhelming.
"This?"
Mukade was so frightened that he backed away, "It's just Genin, how could that happen?!"
His dream is to unify Shinobi World!
Can't stop here.
Mukade Hands Hand Seals.
But just halfway through, I felt like everything was spinning.
Magic·Demonic Illusion: Shackling Stakes Technique!
Sasuke Uchiha pulled him into the illusion space, and huge iron nails were inserted into his body, making him unable to move.
"The mission went well."
Kakashi Hatake said with a smile.
He was quite satisfied with Sasuke Uchiha's performance just now.
Lightning Release plus swordsmanship is really exciting.
With the help of Lightning Release, his father's swordsmanship will surely become great again.
"The mission has just begun."
Shihui Aburame shook his head.
"What do you mean?"
Kakashi Hatake subconsciously looked at him and asked, "Are there any other tasks?"
"Sasuke, you control Mukade and let him complete the spell on the ground."
After Shihui Aburame finished speaking, he explained to Kakashi Hatake, "Our mission is to try to conquer the dragon vein."
"Why?"
Kakashi Hatake couldn't help but frown.
"Kakashi-sensei, don't you want Chakra?"
Shihui Aburame pointed and said, "Now is the opportunity."
Kakashi Hatake was slightly startled.
Is it actually because of me?
Is it true what Karin said before about treating the dragon vein as Tailed Beast's seal?
Two in one.
