The boundary of wetbone forest.

After the living dragon's clone introduced Baishi to various locations in the Shiggy Bone Forest, he left Baishi alone and returned to the location of his original body.

Standing on the top of a tall mountain, Baishi felt that the natural energy here was stronger than at the bottom of the mountain. If he practiced magic here, he could get twice the result with half the effort.

Just when Shiraishi was overlooking the panoramic view of the Marshy Bone Forest from here, footsteps sounded from behind.

Shiraishi knew who was coming here without even thinking about it. Apart from him, there was only one human being, Tsunade, in the wet bone forest.

"Are you here to seek justice for those dead Konoha ninjas? I should have said that I don't really want to fight with you."

Shiraishi tilted his head slightly and watched Tsunade walking towards him.

There was still a coldness in the other party's eyes.

After all, Shiraishi's actions in Konoha were too big. The Konoha ninjas below didn't know what happened, but Tsunade knew some unknown inside stories.

When Shiraishi left Konoha, he not only destroyed Konoha's construction facilities, but also took away some members of the Uchiha and Hyuga clans.

To make matters worse, the 'caged bird' curse engraved on the foreheads of those branch families has expired, and the Hyuga clan is still in chaos within, arguing with each other.

There is even concern that the remaining members of the branch family will defect, and an atmosphere of rejection and distrust is brewing within the Hyuga clan.

The situation was not much better for the Uchiha. The conflict between the police force and the village seemed to be deepening day by day. After all, Ruri, a member of the Uchiha clan, was also involved in the battle with the Hokage that night.

"I'm just curious, what is your purpose in inciting so many people to leave Konoha? You can't do nothing if you lead so many people away."

Tsunade's expression was serious.

The miko and the black beast-type psychic beast that attacked Kusakure Village were Shiraishi's subordinates. The reason for attacking Kusakure Village seemed to be related to the remnants of the Uzumaki clan.

Afterwards, they instigated the Uchiha and Hyuga clan members to leave Konoha. Tsunade was very worried that Shiraishi had some ulterior secrets that would harm the Konoha ninja village founded by her grandfather Senju Hashirama.

"It turns out that I am interested in this kind of thing. Don't worry, I don't plan to do anything to Konoha. Let's not talk about Uchiha for now. The Hinata people left me. I can only say that it was their own choice. I never forced it.

They join. However, everyone's heart yearning for freedom cannot be restrained. A bird in a cage will be fearless in life and death when it sees the hope of flying freely. Isn't that the truth, Teacher Tsunade?"

Tsunade opened her mouth and wanted to argue, but found that she could not object to Shiraishi's words.

Even she can't stand the caged bird of the Hyuga clan.

It is said that it is to protect Byakugan, but then the clan members can activate the curse seal to control the ninjas of the branch family. This is too much to say.

"Then what's going on over there with the Uchiha?"

Tsunade sighed, feeling that things were getting more serious.

"That's an issue left over from history. It's very complicated to talk about, and it involves some ulterior secrets. I'm sorry that I can't elaborate on the reasons."

Shiraishi thought about the conditions for opening the Mangekyo Sharingan, and felt that this kind of thing was not something that could be disclosed to others casually.

Whether it is to outsiders or the Uchiha clan, it is best that this kind of secret never be made public.

"To you, does the village really exist without thoughts? Mr. Sarutobi trusts you so much that he has mentioned to me more than once that you are a Konoha ninja who has inherited the true will of fire."

Tsunade looked at Shiraishi with complicated eyes.

Now that I think about it, being regarded by the Hokage as a Konoha ninja who inherited the will of fire has now become his greatest irony.

It can only be said that Shiraishi is hidden too deeply.

At the moment before his rebellion, no one would have thought that he was a rebellious person in the village and that he would become a defecting ninja.

Shiraishi did not answer this question, he just sat down and stared unblinkingly at the sea of ​​fog that filled the mountainside.

"Or...because of what happened with Sakumo..."

Tsunade guessed again.

"You master and disciple really have exactly the same thinking mode. On the night I left Konoha, the Sandaime also asked me the same question."

Shiraishi turned his head and looked at Tsunade, with a somewhat helpless expression on his face.

"Then I'll answer it again. The Konoha ninja named Hatake Sakumo is just a Konoha ninja. I will feel sorry for his death, but I will never use this reason to take revenge on some people.

If you are struggling with this kind of problem, there is no need. I have no interest in Konoha's affairs. It's almost time for you to set off. As far as I know, Konoha's current situation is very worrying."

Shiraishi reminded Tsunade that it was still the period of the Great Ninja War, and as Konoha, the Land of Fire, was under attack, the situation was quite urgent.

Seeing that Shiraishi had no intention of communicating anything, Tsunade knew that she would not be able to get any useful information from the other party.

His face is no longer the gentle and polite look he had when he was in Konoha, or in other words, this is his true face.

The gentleness and humility in the village are just a disguise to win people's trust.

Tsunade took a deep breath, regained her composure, and turned around to leave without any fuss.

Listening to the footsteps gradually walking away, Shiraishi knew that his relationship with Tsunade was completely broken.

However, there is no way around this.

He had this realization from the moment he left Konoha.

No matter what excuses he made, his actions that night were all about dividing and destroying the village left behind by the First Hokage Senju Hashirama.

To Tsunade, it should be a precious thing that no one is allowed to destroy or desecrate.

If you destroy these by yourself, it will naturally make her hostile and angry.

If this wasn't the realm of the Moist Bone Forest, he would probably have come to fight in person.

However, Shiraishi didn't care about this.

There are still many things that I have to do, but I can't stop because of Konoha.

The start of the Third Ninja World War was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

If you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to have such an excellent development opportunity again after the war subsides.

"Although I really want to go back as soon as possible, I'd better get familiar with the environment here first."

After all, there are many treasures here in Shigulin that are rare to see in the ninja world.

The fountain of life that can heal and assist in the cultivation of magic, and the hard trees that can withstand the corrosive mucus of living insects and contain natural energy are both things worthy of attention and can help his series of development plans.

"First, let's ask Living Dragon and Fountain of Life if we can get a simple version."

After all, the fountain of life here on the top of the mountain is really huge. There are deep and shallow areas, and the deep areas can directly allow large psychic beasts to swim freely in it.

Shiraishi plans to build some normal-sized therapeutic hot springs outside. Whether it is for personal use or for commercial use, it will have many unexpected benefits.

But will this cause the hot spring industry in Yuno Country to go bankrupt?

Shiraishi thinks it's very possible.

◎

After Shiraishi left, there were naturally people who were distressed by his departure.

Because no one expected this before it happened.

Ruri and Ayane had to find Shiraishi's clones, Thundermaru and Tianyu, who were still here and did not leave with them.

"Is father missing?"

After hearing what Ruri and Ayane said, Thundermaru, who was standing on Tian Yunv's shoulder, was very surprised by Shiraishi's disappearance.

"We suspect that he was summoned to Shigu Forest by someone using counter-spiritual techniques."

Liuli said this.

In the office, Shiraishi's name appeared on the scroll that signed a psychic contract with Shigulin.

She and Ayane both suspected that Shiraishi had been channeled to the Shiggou Forest by the Slug Immortal of Shigun Forest.

"Shiggy Bone Forest? I think it should be fine. If there is any danger, my father will definitely call them over to fight. The fact that my sister Tianyu and I are still here proves that my father is in a very safe situation now."

Lei Mingwan said.

"Use the counter-spiritual technique to summon him back. This situation is quite worrying."

Raimeimaru's analysis makes sense, but Ayane still feels that she is too optimistic. What if Shiraishi encounters an unimaginable danger and is defeated by the enemy before using the psychic technique? This situation may also happen.

.

"Okay, Mother, I will use the counter-channeling technique immediately..."

There is murderous intent!

Lei Mingwan felt a biting cold air rushing towards his body and couldn't help but shudder.

Liuli's clear black and white eyes stared over, as if looking at an already cold corpse, with dark and terrifying eyes.

"What did you just call her?"

"Ah...that...isn't...that just now was..."

Lei Mingwan's dark face was covered with cold sweat, and he timidly took a step back and hid behind Tianyu Nu.

This mother here is so scary.

You don’t want to eat it alive here, do you?

Its meat is not delicious at all.
