On the outskirts of Aomori Town, Harada Shintaro led the two fellow farmers who were rescued along the way. They looked at the fire burning in the town and felt a sense of joy in their hearts.
He turned to look at Menma and said sincerely: "Sir! From now on, whether it is going up the mountain of swords or going down into the sea of fire, everything will be at your command!"
"Even if I ask you to sacrifice your life, what can you do for me?" Menma asked, stopping Harada in his tracks.
Seeing that Harada was afraid to answer, Menma directly ordered: "I now ask the three of you to go to the country of waves and seek refuge with a rich man named Cardo."
With that said, he took out the map and travel expenses and handed them to Harada.
The gentlemen in the town had millions of dollars in wealth, and before Menma unleashed the 'Fire Release - Fireball Technique', he unceremoniously 'visited' their treasury and collected all the ill-gotten wealth.
At the same time, he also burned all the various usurious debts owed by the townspeople.
Therefore, the toll paid to Harada was a huge amount of 500,000 taels.
"Sir, what are we going to do when we get there?" Harada kept a very low profile, respectfully took the toll with both hands, and asked at the same time.
Sending Harada to the Country of Waves was a secret move made by Menma, so that he could be used in the mission of the Country of Waves in the future.
At the same time, the Land of Waves is also Naruto's first target in conquering the entire ninja world.
Just like Orochimaru established the [Sound Ninja Village] in Tian Country, Naruto also needs a [Strategic Rear Area] outside Konoha.
This place must be unobtrusive and at the same time have certain geographical advantages.
The Country of Waves undoubtedly meets this requirement.
Although it is an island country, it has been building a cross-sea bridge. This takes into account both closed and open conditions.
The isolation of the islanders makes it easier for him to turn the Country of Waves into his own backyard; and the construction of the cross-sea bridge will not make the Country of Waves completely "closed" and allow him to communicate with the outside world.
In particular, to the west of the Kingdom of Waves is the Kingdom of Fire, and to the east is the Kingdom of Water. Once things change, you can go to the Kingdom of Water with a small boat.
Putting all the conditions together, it would be a shame for him not to take over the country of Bo.
The situation in Aomori was over, and Kakashi and his team returned to Konoha.
It's still the same familiar white wall, it's still the same door, and the doorkeeper is also an old acquaintance, especially the Jonin Shiranui Genma.
"Hey, Kakashi, you're back!" Gen Shiranui greeted from afar. The Senbon in his mouth moved with the movement of his words.
"Hey, the mission has been successfully completed." Kakashi returned to his nonchalant look and greeted weakly.
After the registration was completed and he entered Konoha, Kakashi turned around and said: "I will report back to the Hokage. Team 7 will...disband!"
"Yeah!" When Kakashi said this, Sakura suddenly became interested.
They arrived at the village in the morning, which meant that they had free time in the afternoon.
"Just take this rare opportunity to go shopping on the street! Let's see what new accessories are in the store." This is what Sakura was thinking.
"If you have time this afternoon, let's go to the river to practice fire escape ninjutsu. After these few days of tree climbing training, I have already felt that my ability to control chakra has reached a new level." This is what Sasuke was thinking.
.
In the past few days, in addition to the "Go Fire Ball Jutsu", he has also mastered the "Phoenix Fire Jutsu". What he wants to practice this time is a C-level ninjutsu called "Fire Release-Dragon Fire Jutsu".
For an ordinary genin, being able to master the Three Body Technique is a big deal.
On this basis, being able to master three C-level fire escape ninjutsu is considered a genius. But Sasuke was very dissatisfied.
Because he met a guy with a more perverted talent than him - Uzumaki Naruto!
In just half a day, he mastered the "Fire Release-Hao Fireball Technique". In three days, he practiced three C-level Fire Release Ninjutsu to the point of proficiency.
While he was still working hard to practice C-level ninjutsu, Naruto had already begun to study B-level ninjutsu.
"Fire Release - Fire Dragon Flame Bullet"! "Fire Release - The Great Dragon Fire Jutsu"! "Fire Release - The Great Fire Extinguishing"! Three B-level ninjutsu, and it only took five days to practice them to a similar level.
If it weren't for the fact that Naruto didn't have the standard hair color and iconic eyes of the Uchiha clan, Sasuke would have doubted whether Naruto had the blood of the Uchiha clan.
Sasuke regarded Naruto as a genius among geniuses, but Naruto himself felt that it was not enough.
The people he compares himself to are all outstanding ninjas in all aspects.
For example, if you can't reach the level of Uchiha Madara in Fire Release Technique, then Fire Release Technique is not practiced well. In the same way, the same is true in other aspects.
"My strength is now at a bottleneck." After Team 7 was disbanded, Naruto thought as he walked in a deserted alley.
Compared with Naruto in the original work, he did not learn the "Multiple Shadow Clone Technique", but he learned many secret fire ninjutsu from Sasuke of the Uchiha clan.
But without the guidance of a better famous teacher, this is almost the limit.
"In terms of talismans, I have developed the tiger talisman and the monkey talisman, but there are still ten more talismans that have not been activated." Naruto thought to himself.
The ten talismans are rat, ox, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, chicken, dog and pig.
Naruto already knew the general method on how to activate the spell.
For him, time is very tight.
It won't be long before the mission to the Kingdom of Waves will arrive, followed closely by Orochimaru's "Konoha Collapse" plan.
After Orochimaru appears, the Akatsuki organization will start to capture tailed beasts on a large scale, and then Uchiha Obito will appear, and Uchiha Madara will be resurrected, starting the Fourth Ninja War.
When the Fourth Ninja War ends, the peaceful days will not last long, and the Otsutsuki clan from outside will arrive.
In short, before long, the entire ninja world will be like turning on an accelerator, with all kinds of enemies jumping out from everywhere.
If he wants to ride such a wave and take advantage of it, Naruto must have enough strength to move Konoha with his own power, and then use Konoha as a stepping stone to move the entire ninja world!
"Now I just need to wait for Menma to solve the problem in Aomori Town. And I will stay in the village to practice, practicing the Rasengan, and trying to activate the other charms at the same time."
Needless to say, Rasengan. With his current talent and the detailed explanation in the original work, it is really not difficult to develop it.
Naruto also had an idea when it came to activating the rest of the charms. His eyes were fixed on the "Blinking Body Technique".
In the ninja world, any technique that can achieve instant movement is collectively called a teleportation technique. Time and space ninjutsu, high-speed taijutsu, escape techniques, etc. can all achieve teleportation effects.
The teleportation technique that Naruto wanted to learn was an escape technique.
It gathers chakra on its feet and moves at high speed like a gust of wind. The speed is so fast that it cannot be caught by the naked eye. To ordinary people, it looks like the caster has suddenly shifted space.
