A week was given after the war ended.

Uka Senju returned to her post and was never seen again.

Even though the person in front of them brought gifts, they were blocked at the camp gate by the Senju Ninja.

A week had passed before Uka Senju reappeared, raising her sword.

After a thorough cleanup and suppression, the Merchant Ninja Organization returned to normal in just two days!

This system secured a stable supply of medicinal herbs for the Clan.

He also acquired another 70,000 to 80,000 energy points in subsequent operations.

Meanwhile, Masamae Kamijō handed over the Merchant Ninja Organization, retaining only its name Kisen Island.

Thus, a contract that was nominally Masamae Kamijō eagerly anticipating was born.

Today is the day for the signing of the handover agreement and the departure of the Uka Senju Hua team!

He caught the File pushed towards him, and signed his Daimyō on it without even glancing at it.

Even if Masamae Kamijō felt extremely upset and angry.

But at this moment, he had a kind smile on his face.

There was no other way; it was Senju's contraction that truly made him realize how important strength was.

The promised week of recovery, previously stated in the meeting room, was postponed after the departure of the Senju Ninja.

Nothing was going well for them, no matter where they went.

Faced with his loyal subordinates' offer to surrender and accept half the loss, he reluctantly handed over what he possessed.

This outcome made him deeply regretful that on the day after the war, he suddenly had the idea of kicking the bucket.

According to the previous agreement with Senju, he only needed to pay a large sum of money.

And afterwards, he sold all the medicinal herbs to Senju Shou at market price!

Although they might be poor for a few years, the organization's independence remains in his hands.

But this arrogance came at a price far too high!

At this point, he had lost his previous enthusiasm, because if he had to do it again, the price he would have to pay would not be just losing half of his power!

I saw that the document on the other side was signed and then kept in Isshiki.

Uka Senju nodded and smiled at the newly appointed person in charge from the Clan, saying, "The follow-up is up to you. We'll be leaving now!"

Intelligence of the victory was sent back to the Clan ten days ago.

When the Clan learned about his Qizhan...

They immediately dispatched a newly formed Middle Unit to be stationed there permanently.

Apart from the six Shinobi Clan, all the newcomers were the latest products produced by the base.

There is a group of people within the Merchant Ninja organization who have pledged their allegiance to them.

The island is now completely at peace!

"Yes, Lord Uka, rest assured, the medicinal herbs and the Qizhan will be safe and sound!" The newly arrived Company Commander bowed and assured him.

Nodding in agreement, Uka Senju said nothing more, then turned and led her teammates and Yoshikazu Senju away from the conference room.

Ten minutes later.

All the people that Uka Senju brought for this mission gathered at the dock outside the small town to board the ship.

Even the ashes of the deceased were taken aboard the ship by their respective teammates!

Once everyone had arrived, the ordinary people put away the planks and anchors that had been placed on the dock.

Uka Senju's voice, amplified by Chakra, rang out. "Let's go!"

As soon as the voice faded, the Ninja beneath the three sails immediately Hand Seals and unleashed Wind Release Ninjutsu.

With the help of this supernatural force, the ship began to move at high speed against the wind.

The Ninja on the ship also had more space because of the extra ship.

After arranging the duty roster, everyone returned to their cabins to rest and relax!

The return journey after completing the mission was marked by a different, more subdued atmosphere than the arrival.

Apart from those on duty, with Uka Senju's tacit approval.

There was a significant increase in conversation and laughter on the three ships.

Having experienced such a battle, when I had no mission of my own.

The Wood Release Squadron was no longer as dull as before, and they had much more to talk about!

May 29, Konoha Year 29

In the morning, on the outskirts of Konoha.

Bathed in the light of the newly risen sun.

Not far from the riverbank, a lush green lawn is dotted with wildflowers of various colors.

And in the very center of the lawn was a blue object.

Suddenly, I've stumbled into this painting formed by natural beauty!

He raised his hand and tossed out a wooden disc.

The environment, which was filled only with the chirping of insects and birds, was immediately shattered by a burst of running and barking.

Woof woof woof!

Listen to the Brown and White Ninja Dog gradually disappearing into the distance.

Uka Senju quickly moved part of her body, which had been lying entirely on the mat, onto the girl's legs!

The girl did not reject the change; her eyes held a joy that seemed unlikely to fade.

He just watched with a smile as the boy lay down and moved his head around, trying to find the most comfortable position.

By cleverly diverting the wicked dog that had stolen her spot, Uka Senju finally got what she wanted.

He lay on Furin's lap, smiling as he closed his eyes, completely relaxing his body and mind!

It has been six days since we returned from the last mission, and there are only two days left until the next mission.

During this short break, the ordinary members of the Wood Release Squadron can relax as they please, choosing to train, study, or have fun!

But he has to continue to devote his energy to a whole host of tasks!

There's a whole host of tasks to handle, including assigning tasks, replenishing personnel, and managing internal affairs of the Soratate Branch clan.

Even after work, I have to plan to spend time with my family, including Tsunade, Maki, and my Aunt!

This made him even busier than when Kisen Island!

The entire day was almost entirely filled with plans.

Until today, Tsunade is away on a mission, Maki is busy with exams, her Aunt is at work, and the Wood Release Squadron's affairs with the Soratate have ended!

This finally gave him some leisure time.

So he invited Inuzuka Furin, whom he hadn't seen for several days and who was at home with her parents, to go on a spring outing!

There's nothing we can do; it's just their personalities.

It's still Uka Senju's habit.

He always felt like he was either with this girl or that girl, or in that little bedroom at home!

Only then can he truly achieve complete and utter relaxation!

Especially the prophecy that suddenly appeared after I returned.

He was very concerned about what was inside, and felt as if he were facing a formidable enemy.

But he had to act as if he didn't care at all and even scoffed at it!

These internal and external changes, coupled with her busy schedule, left Uka Senju with no time to relax.

He lay on the girl's lap, inhaling the faint fragrance of flowers, grass, and trees carried by the gentle breeze, along with the girl's own scent.

He felt the girl's fingers touching his face and head.

As the cool fingertips pressed lightly or firmly, Uka Senju gradually drifted off to sleep with a smile on her face!

The changes in the boy were first noticed by Inuzuka Furin, the owner of the legs.

She withdrew her fingers from the massage she had been using to relieve Uka's fatigue.

The genuine smile that had been on his face slowly faded, replaced by the typical Shinobi Clan smile.

He lowered his head and silently watched the sleeping boy.

How could she, as Ninja from the Inuzuka Clan, not sense the commotion within the village?

Even without understanding the outside world, the conversations within the Inuzuka Clan were enough for her to realize the boy's predicament!

The boy's attitude toward those things was revealed through this brief encounter this morning.

She had already discerned the truthfulness of those contents!

The boy's performance, which he believed to be perfect, might fool most people.

But for someone like her, who had silently followed the boy and observed him wholeheartedly for several years.

Those prophecies had clearly struck a nerve with the boy!

Endless war, life and death struggles, the Shinobi World losing hope, the people who bring disaster, primal regression...

She could already discern what the points in these prophecies represented!

But... what does all this have to do with her?

In her heart, all she wanted was for this person to be happy.

So what if the Shinobi World is destroyed?

And she didn't think of the boy lying on her lap, the one in her heart.

They will do the things foretold in the prophecy, harming the innocent and killing indiscriminately.

In the years since becoming Ninja, Uka has indeed killed many people, but didn't all of them deserve to die?

And killing for a mission, isn't that what Ninja are supposed to do?

Throughout the Shinobi World, which Jonin has taken few lives?

She wasn't one of those fools; she had the advantage of status and power.

She had seen most of the ugly things in the Shinobi World!

Through the story of the Jonin's father, she learned a great deal about how corrupt that Hokage!

Inuzuka Furin felt an ever-growing loathing for the Hokage who used these things to tarnish Uka's reputation!

Unfortunately, her skill level is currently Special Jōnin.

The barrier to becoming Jonin the Shinobi World is just that abnormal and arbitrary.

Perhaps in a chance moment, she will break through!

It's possible that she might never witness this chance encounter in her entire life!

With half the year already passed, the Brown and White varieties should be fully developed by the end of the year!

Whenever she thinks of this, she feels a sense of powerlessness and distress despite her diligent practice.

If she can't even break through to Jonin level, then forget about taking revenge on the Hokage she despises.

She might even lose the right to continue missions with this boy!

These things make someone who is soft on the outside but strong-willed on the inside very anxious.

But things are always like this: the more you rush, the harder it is to get things done!

May is almost over, and after a month of cultivation, she still hasn't made any progress!

This makes it difficult for Inuzuka Furin to smile when she's not facing Uka.

Time slipped away, second by second, as the boy slept by the river and the girl pondered in her heart.

Two hours later, Uka Senju, who had been sleeping very comfortably, slowly opened her eyes.

The first thing he saw was a pair of black eyes above him, full of smiles and affection!

"You're awake." Inuzuka Furin's soft, sweet voice followed, gently wiping away the secretions from the boy's eyes with her hand.

"Hmm!" Uka Senju responded by slightly compressing her lungs and exhaling through her nose.

" Uka-kun, why don't you take a nap?" Inuzuka Furin asked.

"No~!" As she sat up straight, Uka Senju gave her answer by squeezing her chest and lungs together.

After getting up, I rubbed my face vigorously with both hands to make myself more alert.

Ah~!

He let out a big yawn and put his hand down.

Uka Senju then saw a Ninja Dog sitting on the grass with a resentful expression, holding a wooden plate in its mouth.

"Woof woof woof woof~!" Seeing that the boy was looking at him and had woken up, the Brown and White immediately let go of his mouth, letting its favorite toy fall to the ground, and barked loudly at the boy.

Who throws a plate around after playing with it?

Wouldn't your body, which has just warmed up from running, cool down again if you just leave it out for a moment?

And this scoundrel even stole my position.

This is something that Brown and White find somewhat intolerable!

If its owner hadn't stopped it, it would have already spoken up and argued with this scoundrel!

But with its master's warning, it dared not use the swear words it had learned from its other brothers.

This is the only way to make the boy in front of me feel guilty through my voice and condemnation!

But Uka Senju isn't so thin-skinned.

And he doesn't understand animal language very well either!

And would it make him feel guilty for lying on his Fiancée's lap?

This is simply unrealistic!

But the dog in front of us went mad.

It not only barked loudly, but its saliva also flew everywhere in excitement!

Uka Senju quickly moved aside and sat down next to Inuzuka Furin.

"Woof woof woof~!"

"Woof-woof-woof-woof woof~!"

"..."

Seeing the villain's actions Ninja Dog Brown and White, wisely shut its mouth in condemnation.

It's afraid of getting its saliva on its owner, which would be a real problem!

Over the past few years, after suffering some losses, it has become quite accurate in its grasp of the direction of its master's actions in fighting against villains.

So, after glaring angrily at that scoundrel a few times, Brown and White took a few steps and shuffled over to the other side of their master, lay down, and rested their head on their master's body.

"Bang!"

The dog's head didn't get what it wanted; instead, it slammed directly onto the mat.

This was something Brown and White couldn't tolerate at all.

It immediately stood up and looked at the person who had caused all of this.

"Woof woof woof woof woof~!"

The barking on the riverbank, which had just stopped, immediately resumed.

After seeing Brown and White shut up, he actually tried to rest his head on his Fiancée's lap?

Doesn't she realize that Furin's legs must be uncomfortable after lying down for so long?

So Uka Senju pulled Inuzuka Furin closer to herself.

When the dog's attempt failed, he put the Furin's leg on his own lap.

He then reached out and massaged his Fiancée, relieving the soreness in her muscles caused by Furin two hours of pressure!

Watching the battle between Uka and her own Ninja Dog, Inuzuka Furin's smile never faded.

She did not resist Uka's actions, but instead stretched out her right hand to the side.

After Brown and White walked into her arms, she hugged her dog and rubbed the side of its head that had hit the ground.

The owner's caresses silenced Brown and White's loud cries.

But the Furin ' movements made them start to whine incessantly, as if they were quietly complaining to their owner!

"Hmm-one!"

"Hmm-woo!"

"..."

Hearing this commotion, Uka Senju, who was massaging Furin's legs, looked up at Furin, who was comforting the Ninja Dog.

The two looked at each other and smiled silently in unison, then Inuzuka Furin continued to rub the Brown and White head!

The two people and their dog spent a leisurely morning by the river.

As the sun gradually reaches its zenith.

Uka Senju picked up the mat on the ground and, carrying the Furin, moved along the riverbank to a deep forest.

They took out their pre-prepared lunch and fishing rod, and the two of them and their dog ate while continuing to enjoy this rare moment of peace!

"You're in a hurry!"

"Um?"

How did he know?

Inuzuka Furin looked at the person beside her with some confusion.

He removed a palm-sized fish from the rod and tossed it to the Brown and White that was waiting nearby.

Uka Senju baited the hook again and cast it into the water!

Thump!

The calm river surface was rippled by the intruder.

Setting down her fishing rod and glancing sideways at the Furin that had been used to talk about cultivation, Uka Senju smiled and said, "Today, we've come out, and you've taken the initiative to talk about cultivation!"

"This is the first time in several years, and that shows just how anxious you are!"

Upon hearing Uka's method of judgment, Inuzuka Furin's ears involuntarily turned red.

Indeed, in the past, we never felt like we had enough time to talk about each other and how we got along on dates.

At that time, would she have willingly talked about cultivation?

Seeing the girl's face painted with face paint and her ears bright red, Uka Senju smiled and reached out to pull her close, saying, " Furin, cultivation is something that can't be rushed. Sometimes, the more you rush, the less you'll find the right direction."

"Why don't you loosen up occasionally, like I did when I was playing the fish?"

" The Jonin level has indeed brought down many people, but what kind of talent did those people possess?"

"Why are you worried about this? With your talent, this level won't be a problem at all. Level 12 is already Special Jōnin. How many people spend their entire lives as Chunin?"

"Sometimes, instead of constantly looking up, turn around and look behind you to calm yourself down before looking at the problem!"

"Only with a calm mind can you discover every subtle difference in your spiritual practice!"

The challenges of Jonin involve mastering two types of transformations: Nature Transformation and Nature Transformation.

As a member of the Inuzuka Clan, Furin must have read the Clan records regarding the summaries of each attribute!

This kind of information wouldn't differ between any of the Shinobi Clan.

The sharpness of the wind, the scorching heat of the fire, and so on, are practically identical!

So why are so many people Jonin at the Jonin level?

This refers to skill level, not professional title. It's like the maximum score of 10 points in a game from a previous life—how do you reach that maximum?

That refers to the Nature Transformation and Nature Transformation cultivated Jonin stage.

The problem with this system is that there are no standardized criteria for where people are stuck!

As long as no two people in the world are exactly the same, like commodities.

Then there won't be any differences between these levels!

This level is fair; the only advantage the Shinobi Clan has over it is the wisdom gained from their predecessors.

But since it's an insight rather than an answer, it means that this thing may not necessarily encompass everything!

Everyone has their own unique characteristics and talents.

Even if the understanding of the five types of Ninjutsu is the same, there are still subtle differences between what is cultivated and what is released as Ninjutsu!

If the differences in combat are not significant, then nothing will be noticeable.

This can be done during training, especially during Jonin stages.

If the differences cannot be found, it is impossible to adjust the Nature Transformation and Nature Transformation according to those differences.

Ultimately, this will become a hurdle, blocking further transformations!

Both professional titles and skill levels require mastery of two types of Ninjutsu.

That's because of this thing; sometimes it really does have to do with luck.

Some people accidentally get through one of them, while the other one is where people really get stuck!

Of course, there are benefits too. As long as you can get through it, your understanding of this type of Ninjutsu will be greatly improved!

Especially when unleashing those Ninjutsu, even a low-ranking C-level technique can be restored to its full power without any difficulty!

However, those who are lucky enough to succeed in training, or those Taijutsu or Genjutsu, can also become Jonin.

However, this is more about professional titles than the strength widely recognized in the Shinobi World!

This is also the fundamental reason why, despite both wearing Jonin Forehead Protector, there is such a large difference in their strength.

Unless you can train your Taijutsu to be like Might Guy's.

But how many people in the Shinobi World throughout the millennia have truly reached such a level of dedication?

Furthermore, what if you encounter a weakness while cultivating only one method?

Wouldn't that cause a significant drop in strength?

This is the second type of Special Jōnin rank that has been created to deal with!

It not only awards those who develop a fighting style that leads to their strength exceeding the Chunin level, but also those who have only successfully followed one path!

Of course, most people who develop their own fighting style and transcend the Chunin level have already found a successful path!

Just like when Uka Senju got the Special Jonin prize.

At that time, he not only found a style that suited him, but his Taijutsu also reached the Jonin!

The problem with Inuzuka Furin is that she's stuck on a different type of Ninjutsu!

Actually, she's already mastered the basic Wind Release Secret Technique, and by the end of the year, her Ninja Dog will be fully trained.

So, it's not a problem for Furin to have the rank of Jonin.

Among the newly Jonin, she would be in the middle ranks.

Because she also has the help of Ninja Dog!

But everyone's pursuits are different.

She couldn't accept a method that others could accept.

What she wants is for her Ninja Dog to be fully trained, and for her to master both Wind Release and another type of Ninjutsu!

In this way, even if she is a newly Jonin, she will still be among the strongest Jonin!

Because she not only mastered two paths that made conventional Ninjutsu very powerful, but she also gained access to Secret Technique and Ninja Dog!

In this situation, she wouldn't be weaker than those Jonin who possess Kekkei Genkai Ninjutsu!

Hearing Uka Senju's voice, he rested his head on Uka's shoulder!

Inuzuka Furin also understood the meaning behind Uka's words.

But she couldn't help herself, especially after hearing those words recently!

But I can't say these things, and I'm very annoyed by this matter of spiritual practice.

So, she unusually threw a tantrum, nuzzling Uka's neck with her head and saying, "Oh dear, why is this so difficult!"

"I can recite those insights by heart; my father has told them so many times that his mouth is dry."

But I can never find it!

Her Jonin father shared the same attribute as her.

It was because his father made a successful move that his strength soared, making him one of the top Ninja in the Inuzuka Clan.

This, coupled with Uka's current situation, is what makes her so persistent about this!

Her father was also happy to see it.

Because he was Ninja, he knew the cruelty of Ninja.

If the daughter has greater strength, her chances of survival will be much higher!

His daughter wants to improve herself; how could he possibly stop her?

Furin's father had already explained it in great detail many times.

However, the fact that everyone's situation is different still kept the old father's love for his daughter completely out!

Hearing the Furin ' rare opinion, she expressed her emotions outwardly.

Ignore the buoy that suddenly sank!

Uka Senju smiled and picked up the Furin, placing it in her arms.

Looking at the girl in his arms, whose face showed a lot of unhappiness.
