Konoha.

Uchiha clan land.

In the underground laboratory covered by bright yellow lights, a young man in a white hooded coat stood in front of the laboratory bench and worked diligently.

This boy is Shiraishi.

The Second Ninja World War ended with the end of the war between Konoha and Satsui. After that, all countries entered a period of peaceful development recovery without any trouble.

The borders of the Kingdom of Fire have also returned to their previous stability and have not been attacked by foreign ninjas.

But this happened more than three years ago.

Life has been relatively dull for more than three years.

Because there is no need to go to the battlefield, after completing tasks, the time spent in the village becomes more.

This also means that his time spent on research has increased a lot, and he does not have to run around the battlefield of the ninja world like that, constantly fighting against various enemies.

Compared with the research more than three years ago, his research progress is undoubtedly much more advanced.

Natural energy, immortal arts, tailed beast chakra, and the use of Yin and Yang diving are not comparable three years ago.

The efficient use of natural energy means that he can carry out violent soldiers in a targeted manner.

The powerful power of Konoha is not as good as it was more than three years ago, and it also has a little awe. You can face it with a plain attitude.

This may be what is called growth.

After all, while he is constantly improving, Konoha village still has not changed much like before. It has only increased the number of in-service ninjas and its military expenditure is getting higher and higher every year.

As the scale of ninjas continues to grow, it is estimated that the ninja villages in the neighboring countries have become afraid of Konoha.

When will this peace last? Will a new war come again one year or two years later?

The only thing that is certain is that the time when Sandun attacks the next attack on the Fire Kingdom will definitely not let Shiraishi wait too long.

At that time, he could truly leave this extremely boring village.

Although I can't give up some people and some things, separation is also a stage that must be experienced in life.

"The human body stage has finally been completed. Next, you can try to untie the cage bird..."

The experiment of replacing chakra with natural energy as life energy has been more than three years of hard work, and the technology has become more mature. I dare not say that I am 100% sure. At least when an accident occurs, it can be interrupted in time and will not damage life.

In order to achieve the success of this experiment, a total of eleven human bodies were consumed.

The experiment was so successful that Shiraishi felt incredible. No one of the eleven human bodies died, and only one of them had an accident, but was rescued by Shiraishi using superb medical technology.

It's like natural energy can replace chakra as the life energy of the human body.

Although the difference between the two cannot be resolved at present, as long as the cage bird can be unlocked, it is not too late to explore this secret later.

Shiraishi walked to the bookshelf beside him, his eyes flashed over the title of the book, and stretched out his hand to search on it.

"I remember it was..."

As he said that, there was an abnormal movement on the floor next to him.

The head of the mud man with black eyes came out of the ground, and a light golden light emitted from the eyes, staring at Bai Shi.

"Are you back? Thank you for your hard work."

Shiraishi stopped looking for a book and turned around to look at the native man.

This is a "doll" created by myself based on the Yin-Yang attribute chakra, then the natural energy as the core, plus some wonderful uses of the soul.

The inspiration for making it was from the tailed beast.

Shiraishi gave it the name "General Tu".

Because it is only half a year old now, it currently only has the ability to move freely and merge the earth and belongs to the juvenile body.

Now he was able to give Shiraishi the help he was just to communicate with his subordinates and pass on objects. As for combat, he could only say that the future was promising.

The mud man stared at Shirashi like this, as if waiting for Shirashi's next order.

Shiraishi smiled bitterly. Although it was successfully created manually, this guy's intelligence was also very worrying, and it could be said that he was dull and clumsy.

Too complicated commands and interpersonal relationships, its current state is simply incomprehensible.

If he did not give him accurate orders, even Shiraishi, the creator, would not be able to communicate normally with him.

That's why it was given a "promising future".

"What did they ask you to bring back? Leave me the stuff."

Shiraishi ordered him.

The dirt man then ended his extremely empty look with Shiraishi.

The floor began to squirm, and a letter was spit out from it, and a white humanoid creature.

"What's this?"

Shiraishi picked up the letter, but his eyes were on the white humanoid, frowning.

The mud man said nothing, but made a dull sound and sneaked into the ground.

Shiraishi didn't expect this low-intelligent doll to give any decent reaction. It was more qualified to use it as a communication tool only.

Now he is just a communication tool.

Shiraishi opened the letter and began to understand what happened.

There are only two things mentioned above.

Xiao refused to recruit.

The identity of the white humanoid creature lying on the ground was unknown. When I was monitoring Xiao, I had no idea why I targeted his subordinates, and was subdued and finally sent here.

"Did you refuse? I originally wanted to expand the organization's staff, forget it, it's the same with going to find someone else."

Akatsuki's rejection can be said to be reasonable, and Shiraishi didn't feel anything to regret.

There are too many people who can recruit. Anyway, the lower limit of natural energy is very low. Even if disabled people install prosthetics, they can be used as combat power. It is just a matter of strength and weakness.

However, with the foundation of ninja, after the natural energy is strengthened, the strength will be stronger than that of ordinary people.

The biggest problem is the unidentified corpse in front of you.

"What is this touch, and life energy...?"

Shiraish stared at the white creature's corpse with a strange face. He did not call it "human", but instead used "things" as a synonym.

The structure inside him is so simple that it makes Shiraishi think that this is just a shell with consciousness.

The touch is cold, like a corpse, but it is a little different.

Living dead?

"The weird guy staring at Xiao... Is that Xiao valuable to be targeted by someone?"

Shiraishi learned about some things about Akatsuki. The members of the organization were all teenagers who lived in such difficult environments, which created their strong will and courage to fight.

They attempted to save the entire country in the most clumsy way.

Xiao was founded about two years ago. At that time, he was still invented and had no specific name. There were only three people in the organization.

After more than a year of development, it has become an organization of eight or nine people. Xiao’s name has also begun to circulate in recent months.

But it still cannot change anything.

After all, why are such an organization that is so poor that it has problems with basic life, why are people targeted?

The internal struggle of the rain?

Or do other countries don’t want organizations like Xiao to appear in the Rain Country?

Shiraishi just thought for a moment and gave up thinking. He had to deal with as many things as mountains, so there was no need to waste time on such things.

No matter what, other people's affairs have nothing to do with him.

What will Xiao’s future become? Leave it to the unknown future to issue a verdict.

According to Shiraishi's prediction, the ending of Akira is very miserable.

The Country of Rain...is not suitable for development.

At least for now.

There is a territory where great powers compete. Unless the three major powers are willing to jointly establish a stable order, the Kingdom of Rain will follow the prosperity and peace.

But except for fighting with each other, the three major powers have no such idea of ​​jointly building a stable order.

Because the people of that country have been oppressed for many years, most of them have lost the fighting spirit of resistance.

In this era, people die and fight every day.

The way for human survival is the prey of the weak.

The same is true for the countries built by human beings. If the weak are bullied, and if the strong are able to have everything.

The Land of Rain is just one of the countries built by mankind.
