Early September, Year 51 of Konoha.

The situation in the ninja world has basically stabilized, and the five major countries have also avoided talking about war, and have entered a peaceful era of frequent economic exchanges.

The Ghost Country, which has completed the accumulation of funds, technology and talents, in Shiraishi's opinion, has initially gained the confidence to compete with any of the five major countries.

But it's just a preliminary step.

Although the military of the five major countries has declined compared to its heyday due to war problems, especially in Konoha Ninja Village, there are only about 10,000 ninjas left in the recorded number of Konoha ninjas.

Compared with the Konoha Ninja Village in its heyday, its strength has dropped by nearly one-third.

Even so, the Konoha Ninja Village still retains 10,000 ninjas, which shows how profound the foundation of the Five Great Nations is.

In contrast, the Kingdom of Oni captured the Hoshi Ninja Village, which had only a few hundred low-quality ninjas. This kind of thing is completely impossible to talk about on the table.

Therefore, the more times like this, Shiraishi knows, the more he has to stay calm and not reveal his faults too hastily.

"Shiraishi-kun, I'm back."

Hearing this long-lost familiar voice, Shiraishi knew who was back.

Thinking about it carefully, it has been three or four months since I was arranged to go to the Bear Country. During this period, I also went to the Fire Country. Ayane must be a little tired of staying outside.

So after Raimeimaru went over to hand over the mission, Ayane couldn't wait to rush back to the Kingdom of Demons, as Shiraishi expected.

Just facing Ayane who secretly hugged her from behind as soon as she came back and gently pressed the back of her head with her plump pair, she still felt a bit of a headache.

But speaking of it, he did miss Ayane's broad and soft loving heart.

"This is an office, please pay attention to the impact."

Although he has more free time, it is impossible to spend all his time in the laboratory, but he has more time to devote to research than before.

Under normal circumstances, Shiraishi still likes to stay here in the office, quietly sipping tea alone, and looking for comfort after being busy.

After all, the matter of Yang clones, because of the deal with Nagato, Yin Yang escape is no longer a secret. He has enough time to perfect the last clone during the planning stage.

Baishi has already realized the breadth and depth of Yin Yang Escape.

Just like Ayane's breasts are as broad and profound.

"Oh, I thought Shiraishi-kun would instantly knock me down like a wolf."

Ayane narrowed her eyes and smiled, looking very happy.

"I told you this is the office."

"Obviously I've been fooling around here before."

"...That was before."

"In other words, Shiraishi-kun doesn't need to use my body to relieve stress now?"

Shiraishi did not respond to this question. If he needed to relieve the pressure, he would let her know completely when he went back in the evening.

"How is the handover of Star Ninja Village going? Is there no problem?"

"Well, there won't be any problem with Thunder Maru there. But that boy Akei seems to be a little different from the past."

Ayane had paid attention to the immature boy who wanted to become the shadow behind Shiraishi.

After all, he is a ninja with the limit of blood inheritance, so it is difficult not to pay attention to him.

Every blood-succession limited ninja has huge potential, and the level of attention is naturally different from that of ordinary ninjas.

"That kid is really over-serious in some aspects."

"Yes, for example, if you want the shadow behind Mr. Shiraishi, I remember that the shadow dancers were jealous of this in the past."

Ayane secretly laughed.

Shiraishi said dumbly, this incident did happen.

Shadow Dancer doesn't like the red shadow who competes with him for the status of 'shadow'.

She thinks that the shadow behind Shiraishi is enough for her.

"The senior officials of Star Ninja Village, headed by the Third Star Shadow, have basically been tamed. However, I do not completely trust them. I also monitored them when using them. They all know their situation, so at present,

Both parties are in peace.”

After teasing, Ayane let go of Shiraishi from behind and got down to business.

"That's fine. As long as they open a hole and then contain them, it won't be a problem."

"Yes, no matter how much we value it, it's just a small village."

Ayane's words are not derogatory, but in the ninja world, this is the most realistic portrayal.

The funding target behind the Star Ninja Village is a small country. If there is no special opportunity like the Demon Country, this will be the limit.

Even if he possesses secret techniques that are extremely rare in the ninja world, he cannot reverse this fact.

And when it comes to secret techniques, the ninja villages of the five major countries have various secret techniques emerging one after another. They can even study the limits of blood succession on their own. From the talent reserve to the technical level, they have crushed the ninja villages of small countries.

Although the Peacock Magic is rare, it is not unrivaled.

The five major countries have many anti-aircraft methods. The shadow ninjutsu of the Konoha Nara clan, the third generation of Tsuchikage of Iwagakure can use their own chakra to make others fly together, and the rest of Kumogakure, Sunagakure, Kirigakure or more

At least they all have their own unique anti-aircraft methods.

In the past, Fengyu Girl had suffered a loss at the hands of the ninjas of the Nara clan of Konoha.

"Next, you should stay well in the Kingdom of Ghosts. There are no missions that require you to go out for the time being."

"Well, this is just what I want. Speaking of which, Cai should be fine at home, right?"

Ayane's eyes swept over.

Shiraishi's body stiffened for a moment, and then his face returned to its natural state.

"What's wrong with Cai Neng? Asuka is still very competent as an elder brother."

"I mean Ichiki...but it seems that she was sent to Konoha, right? What do you and Ruri think?"

Ayane asked curiously.

She only found out about Kazuhime being sent to Konoha not long ago. Now that she thinks about it, it's really unbelievable.

"This is Yiji's own idea. As parents, we can only follow her own wishes."

"A genius idea? I just hope I won't be led astray by Konoha's empty will of fire. If so, I really want to see that woman's expression."

Ayane had an extremely dangerous smile on her face.

If you want to say who among the three of them hates and despises Konoha's Will of Fire the most, this person is undoubtedly Ayane.

Because Ayane, who was a branch of the Hyuga clan in the past, did not enjoy any benefits brought by the Will of Fire.

On the contrary, being in a branch of the Hyuga clan means that it is a dark corner where the will of fire cannot show off.

He is a member of the village, but he is also abandoned by the collective of Konoha Village.

To Ayane, there is nothing more hypocritical than the Will of Fire.

Therefore, she cannot understand the behavior of Liuli and Shiraishi. If it were her own children, she would do her best to stop them, even if it was out of her own will.

"Don't be so sinister, okay? No matter how empty the Will of Fire is, it is recognized by history, even if it has many shortcomings..."

But after all, it is the persistence that many people keep alive.

In this ninja world where productivity has completely deviated from the norm, it is extremely happy to have your own beliefs, implement them, and have the courage to live a strong life.

"Yes, I finally understand why Shiraishi-kun always says that ideological education is more important than ninja education. But we still have to be careful not to let her absorb anything strange."

Even though Ichiki is not her own child, Ayane feels that she should still be careful.

"Don't worry, I will have someone take care of you over there. Yiji is not an ignorant child."

It is indeed a bit incredible that mature discernment appears in a seven-year-old child, but Shiraishi believes that Kazuki is not the kind of person who is easily distorted by others.

From this point of view, Yiji and Liuli are very similar, both have serious ego personalities.

"It's a bit of a coincidence that the teacher of Kazuki's current class is Mr. Fujimura."

Shiraishi remembered something interesting and shared it with Ayane.

"Teacher Fujimura? The teacher who was evaluated by Liuli as a 'mere chuunin'? I seem to remember it, but I didn't expect that he is still teaching in the ninja school. When I think about it, I feel a little pity for him."

Hearing Ayane's sympathetic tone, Shiraishi nodded in sympathy.

When they were in school, Chunin teacher Fujimura was often despised by Ruri.

Now I have to relive the contempt of the young version of ‘Liu Li’. I don’t know if it’s luck or misfortune.

"Okay, I'm going home first. I'll wait for you to come back in the evening, Shiraishi-kun. It's time to give me the public rations for the past few months."

Before leaving, Ayane blew a rather ambiguous kiss on her face, and then disappeared into Shiraishi's office.

"It's so troublesome..."

Shiraishi knows that women of this age have very strong physical needs. Ayane, who has been separated for several months, will naturally not be able to spare him tonight.

So at this time, you should be lucky that Liuli is not at home tonight.
