After taking a bath, Hanyu returned to the street and said goodbye to Jiraiya and Orochimaru.
But before he took a few steps forward, he stopped again, stood on the wooden bridge across the hot spring river, stared at Orochimaru's back, and then his eyes became thoughtful.
Orochimaru, who was walking on the road, suddenly sneezed, and his body shook. He thought to himself that he shouldn't run directly from the warm room to the snow. Could it be that he was going to catch a cold?
It's strange that snakes can also catch colds.
Then, Hanyu silently withdrew his gaze and returned home.
It was only afternoon, but the sky was very dark because of the snowfall and the thick clouds. Taking a bath and then going to bed was the best decision at this time, but Hanyu had little time to rest.
He went home, changed into normal clothes, put on his long sword and other ninja tools, and went out again.
Hanyu's home is located on the top floor of this building. There is a semi-open corridor outside his door. Then he just flipped his body lightly and jumped onto the roof.
Here, he can have a clear view of the situation behind the hot spring street...Originally, there should have been an empty lot over there, but now a street is being built.
No matter how prosperous a place like the hot spring street is, it is just a secondary attribute area after all. It only has entertainment function, so it is not important to the ninja village. Therefore, it must be far away from the core area of Konoha. Therefore, before, this place was the outermost area of Konoha Village.
But it is precisely because of this that when Konoha continues to expand outward, the building density in such outer areas will certainly continue to increase... However, the reason why the street behind is built there is largely due to Hanyu.
What is being built in the back is naturally the settlement area for the Uzumaki clan.
Hanyu himself is of course a very moral person... No, it should be said that he is so noble that he has some moral obsession. This person has long been away from vulgar tastes.
Although he never thought of taking care of the business of the many poor Konoha girls across , and would never do something that would make him suffer and others reminisce, after the Uzumaki people gathered here, he paid more attention to his image.
If Jiraiya hadn't invited him, he would never have crossed the center line of the hot spring river in his life, and would never have even looked over there.
After climbing over the hot spring town directly from the rooftop, Hanyu arrived at the whirlpool street.
Although it is only separated by a street, the street behind is much quieter than the bustling street in front. Firstly, there are fewer people here, and secondly, it is still under construction.
And because of the protection and hiding policies formulated by Hanyu himself, the people you can see on the street basically have ordinary black hair.
You have to know that the original Uzumaki clan was a clan that was destroyed earlier than the Uchiha, Kaguya, Hozuki and other ninja clans. So even though the Uzumaki clan has begun to migrate towards Konoha, and even the migration work has been roughly completed by now, Hanyu still feels that this kind of protection is necessary.
The people of the Uzumaki clan could understand Hanyu's thoughts and naturally accept this arrangement. Even if there was occasionally a red-haired person on the street, it didn't really matter... We couldn't assume that all the red-haired people in the world were Uzumaki, as long as they didn't become red at the same time, it would be fine.
"Master Hanyu..."
As Hanyu walked through the neighborhood, people kept greeting him softly along the way, and Hanyu followed these Uzumaki people and nodded in greeting.
After taking a look around and seeing that there was nothing special happening here, Hanyu turned around and left, going to the dark underground in the gloomy weather to do even darker work.
The defense of the Shadow Stream underground space has become very tight now. Although the number of core members has not changed much from before, some peripheral members have been added, so the overall number has reached about thirty people.
During the past three years, because the whole ninja world was tending towards peace, Hanyu did not carry out any exaggerated or dangerous missions. As a jonin, he did carry out a lot of routine tasks, but most of them were escort missions. In comparison, the most important one was the sculpture of the first Hokage and Uchiha Madara in the Valley of the End, which he was responsible for. The project was successfully completed without any quality problems, which was all Hanyu's achievement.
Because there were no major tasks during this period, Hanyu was able to focus on practice and training. Up to now, although he had not undergone any particularly exaggerated qualitative changes, his strength was steadily improving. If measured by the most simple amount of chakra , his chakra was rising rapidly during this period.
His normal level now is almost equal to 50% of the chakra amount he had managed to sustain during the Frostfield Battle, which is about ten times his normal level five years ago.
Strictly speaking, this is definitely not a good thing, which means that the chakra erosion problem in Hanyu is much more serious than imagined. However, he has already adapted to the pain caused by that erosion, so this can barely be said to be a good thing... as long as he doesn't die.
Regarding ninjutsu, as he told Jiraiya, after spending so much time he only completed 0.5 stage of Flying Thunder God. The versatility and power of a divine art were greatly reduced, so much so that Hanyu himself was embarrassed to call this art Flying Thunder God, and simply called it "Moving Palace and Changing Feathers".
Strictly speaking, in this year, the most orthodox and qualified successor of the Flying Thunder God Technique had just been born or was about to be born, but this super-advanced space-time ninjutsu had been ruined by Yusei for more than three years.
But Hanyu didn't pay attention to such things. Generation after generation of ninjas will eventually become active, but before that, the ninja world will still be the stage for people like Hanyu.
Hanyu came to the underground space, where Shiko was waiting for him.
It should be said that she was on long duty, keeping an eye on certain aspects of the ninja world's intelligence, and was ready to report to Hanyu at any time once she received the intelligence.
"Any news on that?"
Hanyu asked the other party.
Shiko shook her head, "No, I guess they don't want that thing to fall into the hands of the ninja village again."
"What about our preparations here?"
"Due to the tight time schedule, it is still in progress..."
At this point, what Hanyu is busy preparing for has become clear... the two-tailed beast that he killed before has been resurrected.
Even though Hanyu actually killed a Jinchūriki who didn't have enough time to transform into a tailed beast, it would have sounded cooler to just say that he killed the tailed beast.
Someone has witnessed the Two-Tails in the Ninja World. The tailed beast, which has finally gained freedom, will certainly not go back to Kumogakure obediently. It is currently roaming around the Ninja World.
So...shouldn't we get involved in this kind of thing?
Although poaching rare animals in the ninja world is illegal, after all, the Two-Tails has a Raikage's stamp on its butt, but there is a famous saying that goes... Oh, as long as you are not discovered, it is not a crime.
There is also a saying that goes, "The treasures of heaven and earth belong to those with virtue." It has been previously demonstrated with solid evidence that Hanyu is a person of noble character and who is above vulgarity, so shouldn't the tailed beast be his?
