A week later, Konoha, Senju mansion.
Senju Chen was sitting cross-legged on the porch in the yard, eyes closed.
The three sensing lines transmit information back simultaneously.
Over at Mount Myōboku, the clone was standing on the stone platform in front of the Toad Oil waterfall. Sage Fukasaku asked him not to touch the oil in a hurry, but to spend half a day feeling the flow of Natural Energy. The energy was like wind but not like wind. It was much softer than Chakra, but its penetration was extremely strong. The clone tried to open its perception, and all the life breath of Mount Myōboku rushed in in an instant, like someone pouring a bucket of water into his head.
Ryūchi Cave's side was even more exciting. White Snake Sage threw the clone directly into a cave full of Senjutsu Chakra and asked him to "soak in it first." Within three minutes of the clone entering, the skin of his right hand began to grow fine scales. White Snake Sage said slowly, "Scream if you can't hold on any longer," and then disappeared.
Shikkotsu Forest was the gentlest over there. Katsuyu Sage took the avatar to the core pool and asked him to sit on the edge of the pool and put his hand into the water to feel the pulse of life energy. The water was warm, a bit like soaking in a hot spring, but the fingers would unconsciously emit green light.
The three fronts are advancing simultaneously.
Senju Chen's mouth corners turned up unconsciously.
At this rate, Three Great Sage Lands and Senjutsu can get started in the basic stage in at most two months.
While he was thinking about it, there was a rush of footsteps outside the courtyard door.
"Little Chen! Are you there?"
It's the voice of Shizune.
Senju Chen opened her eyes. Shizune opened the door and walked in directly. She was wearing Medical Department's white coat. Her hair was a little messy. It looked like she had run all the way from the hospital.
"Sister Shizune, what's wrong?"
"Kumogakure's diplomatic mission is arriving soon." Shizune put Tonton down and straightened his hair, "Lady Tsunade asked you to go and receive them."
Senju Chen's movements paused for a moment.
"Kumogakure?"
"Yes, there are more than a dozen people here. The leader seems to be Third Raikage's son." Shizune thought for a while and said
"Sister Shizune, Kumogakure Why are you coming to Konoha at this time?"
"It seems to be signing a peace treaty!"
Senju Chen recalled the anime memories before time travel. In the original book, it seems that Kumogakure did come to Konoha under the guise of signing a peace treaty, but the actual purpose The purpose was to steal Byakugan from the Hyuga Clan - specifically, to kidnap Hinata Hyuga, the heir of the Hyuga Clan, who was still a little baby at the time.
But that's the "original".
Now the entire Shinobi World is so shaken by itself that it has changed beyond recognition.
Third Raikage is not dead. He rescued him from the death of Third Shinobi World War. The old man is still sitting in Raikage's seat. The father and son are one in office and the other is an alternate. Kumogakure's power structure is completely different from the original work.
In addition, during the recent period, Konoha's "Limb Regeneration" technology has spread throughout Shinobi World. Scientific Ninja Tool's reputation has also shocked the world because of Frost's Descent's actions. Land of Rain has made everyone think that Konoha has been laying out for twenty years...
Kumogakure came to the door at this time. It's really hard to tell what the picture is?
Senju Chen thought for a few seconds and found that he couldn't guess correctly.
This feels a little fresh.
After traveling to this world for so long, it was the first time that he was unsure about the direction of an "original event". Because he had changed too many things, the butterfly effect had messed up the original timeline.
"What did sister say?" Senju Chen stood up and patted his clothes.
"Lady Tsunade said that you, Public Security Department, have always been open to the outside world these years. Then let me ask you to come forward on her behalf. First, settle Kumogakure's people and find out what's going on."
"Okay, since sister has spoken, then Sister Shizune, take me to have a look."
"You should change your clothes. You can't wear home clothes to receive diplomatic missions." Shizune looked him up and down.
Senju Chen looked down at his short sleeves and big pants.
"...too."
Ten minutes later.
Senju Chen changed into a neat black formal suit, and his hair was simply done. Before going out, he stuffed a few more things into his ninja bag.
Not a weapon.
These are several intelligence summaries about Kumogakure. These are collected daily by the Public Security Department Intelligence Section. Since the Purification operation, his intelligence monitoring of Five Great Nations has been upgraded to another level.
Turn while walking.
Kumogakure's latest news--Third Raikage recalled the two squadrons stationed at the southern border of Land of Lightning and strengthened the security in the village. At the same time, Kumogakure Intelligence Division has increased its efforts to penetrate Land of Fire. Last month alone, Public Security Department intercepted three batches of Kumogakure spies at the border.
There is another one: Kumogakure has recently inquired about "Scientific Ninja Tool" from neighboring small countries many times, and the bid was extremely high.
Senju Chen put the information scroll away and made a rough judgment in his mind.
Kumogakure's visit this time may be more than just a "visit".
But the specific purpose... we have to meet the person before we discuss it.
He quickened his pace and walked towards the Public Security Department building of Konoha Gate.
At the same time.
Konoha Three miles outside the main entrance.
A group of fourteen people were walking slowly along the main road leading to Konoha.
At the front of the team is a tall, muscular young man with dark skin and short blond hair that is particularly eye-catching in the sun. He is wearing a Kumogakure standard ninja uniform, and the word "Cloud" on Forehead Protector has been polished.
It's us Classmate Little A.
Half a step behind him, followed a man wearing sunglasses and holding a lollipop in his mouth.
Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, Third Raikage's adopted son--Killer B.
Behind them are twelve Kumogakure elites, four of whom are wearing casual clothes and are inconspicuous among the team. But the eyes and steps of these four people have a different flavor - they are habits that only come from long-term assassination and infiltration missions.
Little A was walking at the front, with an unsightly expression on his face.
"Brother, after you arrive at Konoha, can you stop running around?"
"Don't worry, don't worry." Killer B waved his hand, "I'm here this time just to walk around with you and find some new material to write a rap on. I heard that Konoha's hot spring street is very famous two days ago, and there are monsters there!"
"I'm serious." Little A's tone darkened.
Killer B stopped laughing and took the lollipop out of his mouth.
"I know, don't worry. I will remember what the old man told me."
Classmate Little A said no more.
He remembered what his father said to him when he called him into the office before departure.
"This trip to Konoha is ostensibly a friendly visit. We have to give you enough face on the surface. But you have to do four things privately."
Third Raikage A sat behind the table and raised four fingers.
"First, confirm whether the 'Limb Regeneration' technology that Konoha suddenly appeared is real. If it is real, find out what the principle of their technology is and whether it can be copied."
"Second, after the incident at the Rock Shadow Village border, the entire Shinobi World community spread rumors that Konoha has a weapon that can release powerful Ninjutsu without the need for Hand Seals. Go and see what it is. You don't have to steal it, but you must at least understand its general principle and range of power."
"Third, Land of Rain. Let's find out what the relationship between Konoha and Akatsuki is, and whether it is what we speculated. This is more important than the first two. Because if Konoha really controls Land of Rain, then the entire geographical pattern of Shinobi World has changed."
Third Raikage paused for two seconds when he said this.
Then he put down three fingers, leaving only the last one.
"Fourth."
"If you have a chance... bring back a pair of the Hyuga Clan and Byakugan."
