Chapter 739 Summary

The next day.

Kanpū opened his eyes as he woke up from his futon, only to feel a headache and weakness all over his body. He knows that this is the result of a hangover, but he could do nothing about it. Last night, his subordinates tried hard to get him to drink, and Kanpū was resisting at first, but then he drank a lot somehow.

He suspected that Shisui casted Genjutsu on him.

'Yeah, that must be the case!'

Kanpū glanced at the time, it's already seven forty.

'I almost late?'

'No way!'

'As a team captain, I must set an example, and I must never learn from that Kakashi who is late every day!

Kanpū gritted his teeth and stood up, brushed his teeth, washed and ate, then went out.

When he arrived at the Anbu's Headquarters, he was accidentally half an hour late.

But compared to Kakashi being late for an hour every day, he is definitely much better.

Kanpū happily forgave himself.

Pushing open the locker room of the sixth team, Kanpū frowned, as he saw that the huge locker room was empty, with not a single person in sight!

'It's a rebellion.'

Kanpū walked into the locker room depressed, knowing that he should have slept for another two hours.

Yawning, Kanpū casually sat on the bench, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

When he opened his eyes again, the locker room was still empty.

Kanpū's mind has become much clearer now, and he vaguely remembers that he seemed to have said they had a day off today when he was drunk last night…

'Forget it, let's have a day off.'

'There is no mission anyway.'

Kanpū then walked out of the locker room feebly.

After that, Kanpū went to Konoha's famous attraction, Ichiraku Ramen and checked in, then went home to catch up on his sleep. He slept until three in the afternoon before he walked out of the bedroom full of energy.

There is no one in this house at this moment. Hoshino went to find old man Inoue and Matsushita to play shogi, Keiko went to work in the hospital, Hayate left the village for a mission, and Karin went to the Academy.

Kanpū came to the backyard out of boredom and lay on the wooden corridor to bask in the sun. closed his eyes and concentrated, trying to empty his mind, but his thoughts kept on thinking about what happened recently.

First of all, he is happy to hear that the remnant of the old era, Danzo, has finally come to an end. From now on, Kanpū will be able to ignore this crazy old fox alone.

Secondly, Fugaku assumed the Advisor's position. Although he was successfully promoted to the Konoha's high-level position, there are currently four people on the Advisor Team, each of whom is Fugaku's 'Senior', not to mention the leading consultant is Hiruzen.

Even if Fugaku is ambitious, it may be difficult for him to stand out among the Advisor Team.

Third, the Military Police Force.

Kakashi became the Military Police Force's captain, and Guy also became a special advisor. With the efforts of these two close friends, he felt that it will not take long before the Uchiha Clan's emblem is removed from the Military Police Force's buildings.

Fourth, Shisui's eyes.

When they were drinking and eating meat together last night, Kanpū noticed that Shisui squinted his eyes at every turn. It was obvious that his undercover career in the past few years had worsened his vision.

Kanpū feels that the plan to transplant Hashirama's cells on Shisui should be put on the agenda.

But there are two problems here. One is the Kabuto's experiment. If Kabuto's experiment fails, then Shisui will probably have to wait until he goes blind.

The second one is, he had to find an excuse, otherwise, if he directly proposed to transplant Hashirama's cells on Shisui, let alone Shisui, Minato would not agree.

Fifth, Kirigakure's envoys.

After Danzo's affair is over, Mei will definitely speed up their two missions in Konoha. One is to demand compensation for the death of the Yondaime Mizukage, and two is to investigate Sanbi's disappearance.

Regarding Sanbi's information, it is unlikely for Mei to get it from Konoha. As for compensation, Kanpū does not know how Minato would deal with it.

But he knew that if the two sides were at loggerheads, Mei would be unlikely to marry into Konoha.

Thinking of this gives him a headache.

Also, there is Akatsuki.

The purpose of the Akatsuki sending Orochimaru and Taki to Konoha is to assassinate Mei and then threw the blame to Konoha, thereby aggravating the conflict between Kirigakure and Konoha and cause turmoil in the Shinobi World.

As for Orochimaru's desire to sneak into Anbu's Headquarters during Danzo's rebellion, it was his own decision and had nothing to do with Akatsuki.

Kanpū pondered and formed a hand seal to create a shadow clone, and then hit him with a punch. His memory was instantly transferred to the minds of many shadow clones in the underground base under the frozen soil of the Land of Iron Kingdom.

Then, a Byakugan shadow clone named Hyuga Taki happily climbed back to Konoha along the 'network cable', and prepared to join Orochimaru and White Zetsu's clone.

Finally, it's about Kanpū himself.

After countless failures, Kanpū finally ground the iron pestle into needle, ground Tenzo into a powder, and successfully collected Wood Release! (T/N: Ground the iron pestle into needle means no matter how difficult or challenging a task is, it can be done as long as there is perseverance.)

Although he has only experimented with one move, Nativity of a World of Trees, so far, its heaven-shaking and earth-shattering power has been deeply imprinted into his mind.

As for the other Wood Release Ninjutsu, Kanpū also plans to experiment them one by one, but this time, he doesn't plan to go to the Land of Wind. After all, it's only benefiting Land of Wind and Sunagakure to plant trees on the desert, and Kanpū is not happy about it.

As for the other places… Kanpū currently prefers isolated places like islands.

And if he remembers correctly, Orochimaru's northern base seems to be built on an island.

Kanpū's eyes moved around, and he finally couldn't restrain his evil thoughts, so he immediately created another shadow clone, and then punched it.

In the next moment, another Byakugan shadow clone emerged from the underground base under the frozen soil of the Land of Iron, and rushed straight towards the coast of the Land of Iron, and began to search the deserted island.

Finally, now that Wood Release has been collected, Kanpū can use the Collection Technique on Toneri's ancestors again.

He wondered after several months of recuperation, has the banditry business on the border of the Kingdom of Fire prospered again…

…

Land of Rain.

Amegakure.

The heavy rain is like a waterfall.

On the edge of the 22nd floor of the central steel tower, Deva Path Pain stares emotionlessly at the rain curtain close at hand.

Through this heavy rain, Deva Path Pain spread his perception throughout the entire Amegakure, carefully sensing the familiar white-haired figure.

In the past few months, Jiraiya has been frantically sending shadow clones to sneak into Amegakure in an attempt to enter this steel tower. Although he was discovered and killed early by Deva Path Pain every time, and he has been defeated repeatedly, the more frustrated he is, the more courageous he becomes, and he collects the little information through repeated failures!

"No…"

Deva Path Pain narrowed his eyes.

Under the rain, he couldn't sense Jiraiya's presence!

'Did he give up?'

'No!'

Rather than giving up, Deva Path Pain is more inclined to believe that Jiraiya has discovered his method of sensing the entire Amegakure.

Deva Path Pain looked up at the heavy rain: 'As expected of Jiraiya-sensei.'

At this moment.

In a warehouse in a wet market somewhere in Amegakure, Jiraiya is looking up at the heavy rain outside the window.

Time passed, and Deva Path Pain still did not appear.

Jiraiya grinned: 'It seems I guessed it right!'

In the past few months, Jiraiya has used various means to sneak into Amegakure, such as Transformation Technique, make-up, crossdressing, or pretending to be a merchant and pretending to be Amegakure's Shinobi. The time is also constantly changing, early morning, midnight, noon, and so on, but no matter what method or what time he chooses, he will be discovered by Deva Path Pain within an hour each time.

Excluding the fact that Deva Path Pain used Sensor Ninjutsu 24 hours a day without stopping, the only answer is that the heavy rain that has been going on for several months.

Jiraiya breathed a sigh of relief, as he finally passed the first level.
