Chapter 116

Title: Dessert Survival part 1

"Again!"

Hatake Sagiki said indifferently.

"Wait a minute"

Akabane said while rubbing his temple, the continued use of Genjutsu made him a little tired.

But he didn't say wait because he was exhausted, but mainly because of an unexpected guest.

Hatake Sagiki was slightly startled, and then he also sensed the arrival of someone from the Sand Village.

"Okay, everyone can rest."

Sagiki waved his hand, beckoning everyone to go back to rest and recharge.

Akabane lay down on the bench waiting for Zack to arrive while also sighing.

He admitted that he underestimated Hatake Sagiki.

As the Hatake Clan Patriarch, he is quite comprehensive in training and guidance. Even if Akabane claims to help Shin Yūhi to train in the way of Genjutsu, he still cannot escape his evil clutches.

Yes, the real Illusory Domain.

For more than a day, basically, as long as he can still do it, he must repeatedly use the real Illusory Domain, in the name of challenging his limit.

And he has to admit that due to his training, the way he uses his chakra becomes more delicate.

dong dong dong ~

A knock on the door sounded and Akabane snapped his fingers.

However, this is not Konoha. His Family Clans caravan goes out to set up a stall and distribute the comics while the rest is resting due to fatigue from training.

So only Akabane and Hatake Sagiki are the only ones who can come downstairs to meet the guest.

The knock on the door continued, and Akabane remembered the incident he experienced with Tsunade.

When he was about to stand up to open the door, he saw Hatake Sagiki had already reached the door.

"Sorry… uh, Mr. Hatake, didn't expect you to come in person."

Zack politely apologized, when he saw Hatake Sagiki opening the door which he didn't expect.

"It's nothing, everyone is tired, that's why."

After Hatake Sagiki opened the door, he turned back and sat down.

Zack took a look inside and found that Akabane and Hatake Sagiki were the only two on the first floor.

What about other people?

"Ah, it's Zack little brother. I'm sorry I just fell asleep and didn't hear it at all."

Akabane said while looking sleepy.

Pretending to be exhausted was one of his strong points that anyone who saw him will really believe him. So although he just finished his training and looked exhausted, the truth is he can still release his real illusory Domain on eight people two or three times at the same time.

"It's okay, it seems that you have experienced a tough special training."

Said Zack as he glanced at the venue, very puzzled.

There is no trace of training or activity at all.

"Yes, but I just want to sleep every day."

Akabane retorted, then he glanced at Zack and pointed his finger to a seat too lazy to say anything.

Zack calmed down and did not pay too much attention to his surroundings, lest they become suspicious of him.

He sat down, thought for a moment, and said, "To promote comics, Teacher decided to set up a comic bookshelf on the first floor of the Kazekage building so that everyone can read it. So Teacher sent me over to ask about your opinion."

"It is indeed a good proposal. If you don't dislike it, I am willing to donate all the comics I brought this time to you."

Akabane of course did not mind.

From the time he set off to the Land-of-Wind, he didn't plan to earn money out of these stubborn geezer pockets.

"Uh…this.., then on behalf of my teacher, Thank you."

Zack was stunned.

What good is it for him to take a hundred comics when It only adds up to 10,000 Ryo? He just said those words out of courtesy.

"It's nothing, the friendship between wind and fire lasts forever. Giving a few comic books is nothing."

Akabane said with a bright smile on his face.

Seeing it, Zack couldn't help but choke for a while, he wanted to refute Akabane but couldn't for many reasons. 

Taking a few deep breaths made him calm once again, and after getting back his bearing, he finally asked what's on his mind.

"Then I have a personal question…"

"The comics are what I brought into the Land of Wind. So if you have any questions just ask."

Akabane said amicably.

"I heard that you held a comic exhibition in the Land of Fire, can you describe it to me?"

Zack asked while continuing to observe.

However, no matter how he observed the room, he couldn't find the other people from Konoha which made him perplexed and thought.

What the hell is happening to these people!

Hatake Sagiki who was observing him smiled coldly, he then got up from his seat and walked upstairs.

Upstairs?

Sure enough, they were doing a secret training which they didn't want them to know so they hid in the house.

Zack thought after he saw Hatake Sagiki walking upstairs.

His mind was getting restless that even everyone who stayed upstairs could feel it, not to mention Akabane and Hatake Sagaki who were at his side.

Akabane waited for his gaze to move back from Hatake Sagiki to him, and then slightly smiled and said: "Comic Exhibition is actually a gathering of comics lover, and hobbyists who want to share their comics-related work, and they can also role-play the characters in the comics and also make a show base on them."

"so that's how it is… role-playing, performing shows, well, it's not bad…" Zack said.

But although that's what he said, deep inside he was screaming "SECRET TRAINING!"

Zack shook his head, he put the secret training on the back of his head first since he can't receive an answer he wants to hear anyway.

But before he could ask anything, Akabane didn't give him a chance to and 

said.

"But If you are worried about not having enough knowledge for doing it, then you don't have to worry no more since I have a talented individual on my side who is proficient in the development process and I can lend him to you if you want."

"Proficient and talented?"

Zack is dumbfounded, he doesn't know how to react when he hears it.

"Yes, it's the white-haired ninja named Jiraiya."

Akabane laughed while saying it, then after a while, he became serious and continued, "Don't look at him like that, in fact, when it comes to comics, he is a very reliable person."

White-haired ninja?

Zack thought carefully and finally remembered who Jiraiya was.

Is that guy really reliable?

That guy can draw comics that are not ordinary, so if they hand over the comic exhibition to him, heaven knows what kind of persecution the Hidden Sand Village will receive.

When Zack thought of this, he trembled with fear, and the corner of his mouth twitched, and immediately said: "There is no such thing as a comic exhibition in the village for the time being. And if we are going to implement it, then we will contact you when the time comes."

"Is that so, although it's a pity we can't do anything about it, so is there anything else?"

Akabane asked while yawning as if to remind Zack of something.

"There is nothing else, I'm sorry to disturb you."

Zack answered then got up, then turned and left.

He knew that his plot was seen through, and it was impossible to inquire about any news.

Continuing to stay here will only waste time and energy. And It is better to give up early and go back to do your own thing.

"Let's continue."

As soon as Zack left, the voice of Hatake Sagiki was heard from upstairs, and he was not given a chance to rest at all.

"Let's start fast, I am impatient to protect Hidden Leaf Village from the invaders."

Jiraiya is the first to run out, and the others follow closely from behind, soon all of them come out from the door and gather on the first floor.

Akabane hearing it sneered and said, "Protect the Hidden Leaf Village? No need to do it since I just got a new idea, and you will definitely be satisfied with it."

"What idea?"

As soon as Murasaki asked, he felt a trance.

Genjutsu?

Has it already been activated?

He was secretly surprised, Akabane's Genjutsu is getting harder and harder to guard against.

After being in a trance, he opened his eyes again and found himself in the endless desert.

In more than a day, they have experienced this situation several times, and they are not surprised when they see it.

"The game is called Survival on the Dessert."

"Food, weapons, and information are all in this desert. Go look for it. Only the one who can find it can survive! "

Same as the sound in the virtual Illusory Domain before.

And the only difference was the Theme from the previous one.

In the previous illusion, they were trying to protect Konoha from invaders. But now, the theme was survival, survival of the fittest.

Murasaki looked around for a while trying to confirm his position. And only after looking for a while, he noticed that the place where he currently is is the road they passed by from the Land of Rivers to Hidden Sand Village.

After knowing where he is, he suddenly thought about what he heard earlier. Food and weapons are understandable. But what does information mean?

He pondered secretly, but he did not relax his vigilance because their mission was to survive, so he didn't know when an enemy would appear.

"Go towards Hidden Sand Village first, maybe there are any clues."

It didn't take long for Murasaki to make a decision in his heart.

----

Scenarios like this happen at the same time everywhere inside the Illusory Domain.

"So that's how it is, the person who gets the information first can hold the first initiative."

Orochimaru laughed after hearing it, he used a Summoning Jutsu and summoned a bunch of little snakes in the desert to search for the clue.

"Finding Information first is definitely the first thing to do since we don't know what will happen inside the Illusory Domain."

Everyone makes a quick decision, even Jiraiya, who is usually the most unreliable, also quickly judges His position, and then heads to Hidden Sand Village.

They don't know what is inside the Illusory Domain, but according to the prompts, the most important thing is undoubtedly information.

At the same time, information gathering is also the most important part of war!
