Chapter 62: Within the Land of Fire (Second update, please add to your favorites, please vote for recommendations)
Three days passed by in a flash. Hasukawa Kishi packed her bags and said goodbye to Uchiha Itachi, Uchiha Shisui, and Jiraiya. Following the first wave of teams returning to Konoha, they left the frontline camp.
The main task of this first wave of teams is to transport the wounded and some minor information back to Konoha, so the team is a bit large and bloated. Naturally, many powerful ninjas are arranged to follow the team and protect the safety of the wounded and information. .
On the surface, Hasekawa Kushiro is one of the ninjas who protects the wounded and information. As for secretly, he is also a protected person. Although several reliable jonins in the team don't know why Jiraiya specifically asked them to protect Hasekawa Kushiro. However, as ninjas, they naturally knew that there were many things that they could not ask. They all assumed that Renchuan Muxi was carrying important information, so they asked them to protect him.
Of course, their ideas are not problematic to a certain extent. As one of the only ninjas in Konoha who inherited the Wood Release, Hasekawa Kishi can be said to be very important.
And unlike Yamato, who inherited the Wood Release, although the first-generation cells in Yamato's body have been completely integrated with him and stabilized, they can only exert very little power. Compared with the power of the first-generation Wood Release, Yamato's wood escape power only maintains about 20% of the power of the first generation.
This kind of wood escape can only be regarded as a good blood inheritance limit. Compared with the powerful wood escape of the original generation, it is completely different. And fundamentally speaking, due to the fusion of cells, the power of Yamato wood escape has been finalized, and there is no more The possibility of progress may be inevitable for him to reach the level of jounin or even elite jounin in the future, but he will never reach the Kage level. As for whether he can reach or approach the strength of the first generation, that can be said to be a fantasy. .
Hasukawa Kishi is completely different. The first-generation cells in his body are still in a state of constant backlash and mutual repulsion with himself. However, when he opens the seal that seals the first-generation cells and uses the first-generation cells, the wood escape ninjutsu he uses becomes It has a completely different appearance from Yamato, and it's not just that the power of Wood Release is uncertain.
And Hasekawa Kishi, who has opened the seal to use the first-generation cells, also has extremely strong self-recovery ability, which has surpassed the level of medical ninjutsu.
The most important thing is that after discussions between Jiraiya and Uchiha Shisui, it was roughly analyzed that Hasukawa Kushiro's current highest threshold for using Wood Release is almost equivalent to 30% to 40% of the first generation. level, and there is hope for further improvement. It can be said that it is much more precious than Yamato.
Another most important point is that Yamato is still under Danzo's command, but Hasekawa Kishi was discovered by Tsunade. It can be said that he naturally stands behind the third generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, without any doubt.
Of course, regarding the issue of being able to use Wood Release Ninjutsu with the first-generation cells, when Jiraiya knew about it, Hasukawa Kishi knew that the third generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen would definitely know about it. It's not that Jiraiya betrayed him or was loud-mouthed, but it was his obligation and what he had to do as a Konoha ninja and the direct disciple of the third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen.
As for how Jiraiya asked the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen not to announce the fact that Hasukawa Kishi was bound by the Wood Release Blood Succession Limit, it was another question.
As the convoy transporting the wounded slowly advanced, Hasukawa Muxi looked at Akimichi Tangmitsu who was chewing a large piece of baked potato next to him, and said helplessly: "Tangmitsu, you have eaten all the way, you really can't digest it. Is it bad?"
After swallowing the remaining half-baked potatoes in one gulp, Akimichi Hikaru looked at Hasukawa Kishi and smiled: "No, the digestive systems of our Akimichi clan are very good, and we will not have indigestion problems. Besides, in the previous consecutive battles, I consumed a lot of fat and lost a lot of weight. I need to eat back as soon as possible." People who don't understand the phrase "eat back as soon as possible" may think
Akimichi is joking. Or they may use their fatness as beauty, but in fact, people who know it know very well that the amount of fat stored is linked to the strength of the Akimichi clan's ninjas. Many of the Akimichi clan's secret techniques will quickly consume fat and transform it. Carrying out explosive attacks for chakra is why the ninjas of the Akimichi clan are so powerful in their short burst of fighting power.
After groping around in the package behind his back for a while, Hasukawa Muxi took out two large rice balls and stuffed them into Akimichi Hikaru's hands, saying: "You can take these two rice balls and eat them. Although growing food can fill your stomach, it will not increase your fat. I will just take Bingliang Pills. You can eat these foods." Looking at the rice ball in his hand, Akimichi Tangguang hesitated and ordered it
. He nodded and said: "Okay, then I will eat these two rice balls. Thank you very much." "
Haha, there is nothing I can thank you for. If you want to thank me, you might as well go back and wait until I treat you to a barbecue and then thank me. "
When he heard the word "barbecue", Qiu Daodangguang's eyes really lit up. He nodded immediately and without saying much, he just took the two rice balls in each hand and ate them with big mouthfuls.
Time passed day by day, and the speed of the convoy was not much slower than that of ninjas. However, after eleven days of walking, they finally passed through the Kingdom of Frost and the Kingdom of Tang, and entered the Kingdom of Fire where Konoha is located.
The convoy was stopping near a creek to rest temporarily.
"When we set off later, please work harder. We can reach Konoha in about five days."
When the Jonin leading the convoy finished speaking, everyone in the convoy cheered. Konoha Village is the home of everyone here. As long as you arrive in Konoha, you have returned home. This is definitely an irresistible temptation for ninjas who have experienced many battles on the battlefield.
At this time, Hasukawa Kishi was saying hello to another ninja, and was going to find some firewood and other things nearby. If possible, it would also be a good choice to catch some prey. Akimichi Hikaru has been eating frequently in recent days. With the barbecue prepared by Hasukawa Muxi, the body's fat reserves are recovering rapidly.
"Hasukawa, I promised Lord Jiraiya to protect your safety. Is it really okay for you to leave the convoy alone like this?" "Don't worry, we have entered the
Land of Fire and are very far away from Konoha. It's close. Even if that ninja wanted to kill me, he couldn't take such a big risk. There's no problem. If he wanted to kill me, he would have done it long ago." (End of Chapter
