Naruto: As a genin, I just want to live a normal life.

Page 364

We really can't beat them!

He had never seen such a cunning ninja, even more cunning than his own teacher.

"There is."

Danzo suddenly had an idea.

"Didn't Minato come into contact with that woman? He should have left the Flying Thunder God mark on her, right? Or perhaps..."

Danzo made a throat-slitting gesture, hinting at his intentions.

"No way!" Hiruzen Sarutobi refused Danzo without hesitation: "If Minato really makes a move, it will provoke Shirahoshi. What if she comes to attack our Konoha Village? You go and stop her?"

"Heh." Danzo sneered and fell silent.

Clearly, he was afraid, but he couldn't admit it, so he could only feign aloofness.

In response, Hiruzen Sarutobi spoke again:

"However, we have a secret weapon that might be able to defeat Shirahoshi, or even kill him... but I don't think he'll do that."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said helplessly.

"Who?"

“Mattday”.

......

Ever since the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist became the Lucky Two, Might Guy has been asleep in a nest made of white silk, and has not woken up.

Until recently, the nest that had trapped Matt Day was finally broken open.

"Ha! I'm back to life!"

No one expected how long Matt Day stayed in the silkworm nest. He felt as if a century had passed inside, yet he could hear the voices of his wife and son every day.

"Dad! You're back to life!"

"husband..."

Might Guy and Miss Rin were both delighted by Might Guy's resurrection.

For several days, the Might family spared no expense, going to high-end restaurants to celebrate, and on the first day, they even bought expensive gifts to give to Uchiha Keishin at the Uchiha clan's territory.

Today, the appointment of the Hokage has finally been made.

"Might Guy, the Hokage has decided to give you the position of Jonin. Do you accept?"

Looking at the letter of appointment personally handed to him by the Anbu, Might Guy felt a complex mix of emotions.

"A Jonin."

"I really wanted to be a Jonin before..."

The secret agents looked at him, their hearts filled with complex emotions.

I never imagined that a perennial genin would finally have his day.

tear-

The ANBU ninja looked at Might Guy in astonishment: "Are you crazy! This is the Hokage's appointment letter!"

Might Guy tore up the appointment letter and said helplessly, "I'm sorry. I now understand that ninja rank is not something I care about. I will continue to protect the village and my family in my own way, but I don't need this kind of title."

"Therefore, I would like to trouble the Anbu leaders to convey my apologies to the Hokage for failing to live up to his expectations."

The ANBU ninja's expression was even more complex. He glanced down at the torn paper, then raised his hand in a hand seal: "I hope you won't regret this."

After saying that, he used the Instantaneous Movement Technique to disappear into the corridor outside the house.

"Regret? If I really regret it, I might consider joining Shirahoshi's side." Might Guy shook his head slightly and returned to his room.

Loulan's reputation for safety had already been established over the years of war.

Who doesn't know that Loulan is the safest place and the most suitable place for ordinary people to live?

There, everyone is equal, there are no conflicts or disputes, and everyone can enjoy the equal right to live. No one has to worry about being suddenly attacked by cunning ninjas and ending up dead.

Unfortunately, Loulan is only so big. Ordinary people who want to go there need to obtain a visa and pass through layers of review by Loulan staff before they can become official citizens of Loulan.

Therefore, many countries hoped to become vassal states of Loulan, hoping that their own countries could become as great as Loulan.

The neighboring Land of Rain is one of the countries that surrendered to Loulan early on.

"The dam is complete, Chief Yahiko!"

"No, you should call me Lord Yahiko."

In three years, Yahiko has grown up quite a bit.

He patted Idaten Kyusuke on the shoulder: "Kyusuke, once this last dam is built, the weather in our Land of Rain will be controlled, and our Land of Rain will no longer have to suffer from rain all day long."

Looking up, the land of rain was no longer shrouded in dark clouds; instead, it was bathed in bright sunshine.

Although the environment is still damp, thanks to scientific management, rainwater no longer accumulates in one area of ​​the Rain Country.

After rainwater is introduced into the river, the underground river will lead all the way to the desert region that connects to the Land of Wind, thus completing the irrigation.

Furthermore, the Land of Rain and Loulan completed a waterproof tram project, establishing a direct channel for foreign trade transactions with Loulan.

The Land of Rain, a poor and harsh country, suddenly leaped into the ranks of the Five Great Nations in just a few years, becoming a country below the Five Great Nations.

The status of Rain Coins also began to rise.

However, the Wind Kingdom's defeat was too swift, allowing the Rain Kingdom to surpass it in status overnight.

After all, who could have thought.

The currency of the Land of Wind will become worthless overnight.

Among them were capitalists in the ninja world who sold off large amounts of their currency reserves to cover up their losses, thus hastening the end of the Land of Wind.

"Yahiko, Shirahoshi-nii called and wants you to answer it."

At that moment, the grown-up Nagato walked from the direction of Amegakure, holding a SuperSignal phone in his hand.

The Super Trust mobile phone is a mobile phone that can make calls without being inside Loulan. Currently, in Loulan, apart from high-ranking officials and trusted individuals, most other people can only access ordinary mobile phones used within Loulan.

"Damn it! Why didn't you say so earlier?"

Yahiko took the phone: "Hello, Shirahoshi-nii."

Bai Xing's voice came from the other end of the phone: "I heard you're doing quite well in the Land of Rain."

Yahiko forced a smile: "Yeah, it's alright. But nothing compares to the Dean."

Shirahoshi disappeared for three years, and the Dean disappeared for three years. The higher-ups in the ninja world all have think tanks; they're not stupid. So they quickly discovered that the two were the same person, just like Uchiha Madara.

"Speaking of which, if it weren't for something that delayed things, I would have forgotten to tell you something." Bai Xing handed his phone to Xiao Nan, who was wearing professional glasses.

"Hey?"

Upon hearing a very familiar voice coming through the microphone, Yahiko's expression froze.

"Xiao, Xiao Nan? Is that you, Xiao Nan?!"

"What? What Konan? Did Brother Shirahoshi revive Konan? Yahiko, give me the phone right now!" Nagato excitedly tried to grab the phone, but Yahiko pushed him away.

“It’s me,” Xiao Nan said again. “Actually, after Brother Bai Xing heard the news, he saved me, so I’ve been living in Loulan ever since. Speaking of which, I even went to the Loulan Knight Academy and am now a teacher there.”

"So that's how it is. I was wondering why the Dean encouraged me to rebel. So that's how it is." Tears streamed down Yahiko's face as memories of the past flooded his mind once more.

"What happened to Yahiko? Tell me quickly!" Nagato was frantic.

Wei Tuo Tian Jiu Zhu was no better: "Yeah, could you put the phone on speakerphone? We also want to talk to Sister Xiao Nan!"

"Are Nagato and Kyusuke over there too?" Konan heard their voices, held her phone, and smiled happily: "I'm here in Loulan. I'm in the classroom office at the Knight Academy right now. If you want to see me, just come to the inner city of Loulan."

"Go! We definitely will!" Yahiko answered Konan directly for the two of them: "We'll go buy the tickets right away."

"Yahiko!! You bastard!!!" Nagato could no longer endure Yahiko's oppression, "Universal Pull!"

The phone in Yahiko's hand suddenly began to fly uncontrollably towards Nagato.

Yahiko gripped his phone tightly: "Hey! Nagato. My phone's broken, and Shirahoshi-nii said he wouldn't give me a new one. Don't mess with this! This is a brand new phone!"

Nagato raised his hand: "I don't care! Give me the phone, I want to talk to Konan."

Yahiko was at a loss: "Here you go, but don't break it. This thing can't withstand any bumps or knocks."

Everyone knows the power of ninjutsu; Nagato's repulsive attacks can crush steel. A mere cell phone simply cannot withstand it.

Snapped!

Nagato caught the phone steadily and snorted coldly: "Don't underestimate me. I've always been diligently training my chakra control."

"Hello, is this Konan? It's me. I'm Nagato."

Chapter 223 Ninjas, who can make money being a ninja these days!

Nagato's voice came through the phone.

Konan chuckled softly, "Nagato, it's been a long time. How are you, Nagato?"

"I'm fine, I'm super fine. The Land of Rain is truly at peace now, all thanks to the Dean. No, it's thanks to Brother Shirahoshi." Nagato usually still calls Shirahoshi "Dean," but ever since Shirahoshi's identity as Dean was revealed, Shirahoshi has become too lazy to use that title. Calling him by his name is fine too, provided you can call him that.

The two began chatting about things that had happened in the past three years, or even longer. Idaten Kyūsuke stood to the side, jealous, and asked Yahiko, "Lord Yahiko, do you think Konan-nee has a boyfriend now?"

Upon hearing this, Yahiko's expression immediately changed: "I don't think so."

Idaten Kyūsuke immediately distanced himself from Yahiko: "Alright, Lord Yahiko of the Land of Rain, I plan to go and seek refuge with Loulan, to serve the All-Powerful Minister. Farewell, shall we?"

"Huh?" Yahiko pointed at Idaten Kyusuke: "You brat! You dare betray me! And you even want to step on my shoulders to take my place?!"

Wei Tuo Tian Jiu Zhu was shocked: "You actually figured it out!"

"Damn it! I'm not stupid! Come on, let's have a go and see who's Xiao Nan's ideal husband!"

"Come just come, who is afraid of whom?"

On the bank of the dam, a dangerous area, two men holding high positions in the Land of Rain were fighting. Another red-haired man was talking on the phone, occasionally touching his hair and kicking the stones under his feet.

Hearing what Yahiko and Idaten Kyusuke said, Nagato still asked Konan a question at the end of their conversation:

"Xiao Nan, have you... have you found a boyfriend in Loulan yet?"
