Shikkotsu Forest

In the Hokage's office.

The pungent smell of smoke filled the room.

Yuki did not smoke.

In the whole of Konoha, the only one who could smoke freely in his office was the respected 3rd generation chief, Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"The Kyubi Jinchuriki protection plan?"

After receiving the scroll sent by Hiruzen, Yuki opened it and looked at it with a complicated expression.

So, did this day finally come?

Looking at the information about Kushina's pregnancy in Konoha's hospital on the scroll, Yuki was thinking about the Kyubi in the future.

There was no doubt that the countdown had officially begun.

On the other side of the desk, Hiruzen smoked his pipe and said: "As the pillar of the Kyubi, Kushina's pregnancy is very important for Konoha. After all, during this period of her weakest days, it is hard to guarantee that there will be hostile forces coming to destroy her. Once the Kyubi goes out of control, it will pose a serious threat to Konoha."

"Indeed, especially near the basin, that is also the easiest time for the Kyubi to lose control."

Hiruzen nodded: "There will be the most strict protection, but before that, the village needs to arrange more people to protect Kushina."

"Can you take Kushina to a hidden place that no one else knows and hide her? This way, she can avoid the eyes of the outside world to the greatest extent. At least, it can make those with ulterior motives not know her date so that she can spend the day with the lowest risk." Yuki suddenly thought of an idea.

Hiruzen was a little tempted, but when he thought about it, he said: "With Kushina's personality, I'm afraid it will be difficult to do it."

Eh ---

Thinking of Naruto, who inherited his mother's personality, if he was confined to a place for ten months, Yuki decisively shook his head.

If that were the case, with the nickname "Red Pepper", coupled with the fact that the pregnant woman was easily irritable, Kushina probably wouldn't be able to stay for long before the hiding place would be torn to pieces.

Forget it. Just pretend he didn't say anything.

Yuki lowered his head again and looked at the list of the Dark Group protection chosen by Hiruzen in the scroll, and the name of the flag wood Kakashi was there.

"Kakashi, this child, was specially requested by Minato to join after learning of the plan." Seeing this, Hiruzen explained, "Minato hopes that Kakashi will stay calm in the process of protecting Kushina and walk out of the shadows."

"Witnessing the new life coming to the world bit by bit, for Kakashi, who is in despair, is really a warm sunshine that can be grasped tightly. The arrangements of the third-generation leader are very reasonable, and I have no objection."

With that, Yuki signed his name on the scroll next to the signature of Hiruzen.

This matter concerns the pillar of power. Even if Hiruzen had a lot of power, in this respect, he had to explain to the fourth-generation leader, Yuki.

"In that case, I will ask the Dark Group to do it." Hiruzen, who picked up the scroll, stood up and said goodbye to Yuki.

Soon, only Yuki was left in the Hokage's office.

Unlike Tsunade, who was of the same clan as him, after becoming a 5th generation leader, many documents would be on the table every day, but now Yuki was much lighter.

After quickly dealing with the few documents, he got up from his chair and looked out the window behind him. His real attention was floating far away.

The Kyubi Rebellion was approaching. He had also thought about going directly to the Land of Rain to kill the enemy before the mastermind arrived.

Before, he did not have this ability, but now that he had Wood Style and mastered many powerful Wood Style Secret Arts, he had this confidence.

After all, the current Obito Uchiha was still a ten-year-old child. Even if he had Mangekyo Sharingan, his actual combat ability could have improved.

This could be seen from the fight between Minato and him.

In a short time, he saw through his ability and cut off his right arm.

At this time, Obito was still far from the level of strength that would stir up the world in a dozen years.

However, although Yuki's idea was good, it took a lot of work to achieve.

His identity as the 4th Hokage determined that he could not go anywhere.

Not to mention going to the Land of Rain, just walking out of the Konoha Village would have a great impact.

In addition, at this time, it was different from Obito Uchiha did not have any helpers.

Nagato, who had the Rinnegan, and Konan, who was also not to be underestimated.

With the three of them working together, Yuki couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't be able to come out after entering.

Although he knew Wood Style, he wasn't a Hashirama Senju after all.

Therefore, what Yuki could do now was to increase his strength and defend himself to death continuously.

However, no matter how strong the defense was, in the face of the enemy, with the power of time and space and the ability to sneak into the world of ninjas, how useful could it be?

Could it be that he had been by Kushina's side all this time?

Stop messing around!

The woman was in labor, and it was reasonable for her husband to be around.

What was he like there?

It wasn't like he was the old Wang next door.

Forget it. There was still time. Let's think about it later.

Yuki rubbed the space between his eyebrows and sat in front of the book table. He took out an arm-long scroll tied up with a thin rope. It looked like it had some history.

This was a contract scroll he had inadvertently found when searching for the Wood Style Secret Art in the Senju Clan's collection vault.

And the object of the contract was precisely the wet bone forest slug that had a deep relationship with his Senju Clan, one of the three great holy lands of the ninja world.

Opening the scroll, Yuki looked at the names of the ninjas that had been signed one by one.

Apart from the names of most of the Senju Clan that he was familiar with, there were also the Kimza Clan, the Kaguya Clan, and so on.

These were undoubtedly the top families of the ninja world.

However, when faced with the contract of one of the Three Big Unexplored 'Sage' Regions, they all scrambled for it.

However, one can imagine how charming the Shikkotsu Forest was.

Yuki continued to roll the scroll. When he saw the names of the two closest to him were "Hashirama Senju" and "Tsunade Senju", he nodded in understanding.

When he flipped back again, there was a blank space.

There was still an empty space in this contract.

Without hesitation, Yuki bit his finger and signed his name in the empty column following the "Tsunade Senju". Then he pressed the blood-red finger mark under the "Yuki Senju".

The reason why the first generation was so strong was not only because of the wood style but also because of the immortal arts he cultivated.

Yuki, who was determined to evolve from the first generation to the first generation, naturally would take advantage of this opportunity.

He did not need to worry that he could not cultivate.

Tsunade of the Senju Clan could not cultivate the immortal arts of the wet bone forest because her physique could not withstand the corrosive damage of the immortal arts of the wet bone forest.

However, Yuki was different. He had the Wood Style Technique like the first generation, so his recovery speed was extremely fast. He wasn't afraid of corrosion, and it was completely in line with the conditions to cultivate the wet bone forest immortal technique.

Moreover, even if he couldn't cultivate smoothly at that time, wouldn't there still be a system?

As long as he came into contact with the cultivation method of the wet bone forest immortal technique, the system would be able to exchange for immortal techniques.

Therefore, why not!
