______________________________________
The truce with Sha Yin was a few days later.
This time, the place where the armistice agreement was signed was re-determined. The mission that Konoha traveled was not attacked, and the scene of the armistice agreement passed without incident.
Although the war is over, ninjas still have to be stationed here at the border of the Land of Fire.
Moreover, it is not a matter of a day or two to evacuate and return to the village. The unused supplies need to be counted, and there are still many wounded people who need to be taken care of.
There is also the body of the victim, which needs to be verified and transported back to the village.
The Shuo Mao team has nothing to do now, and the war is over, so there is no need to go to the rear of the Sand Hidden Camp to carry out sabotage work.
Regardless of the other three, Shiraishi is currently being requisitioned because he is a medical ninja, and has to stay in the medical unit every day.
When these wounded recover from their injuries and return to Konoha, it will be much smoother.
On this day, Shiraishi worked in the medical unit as usual, cooperating with the rest of the medical ninjas to treat the wounded ninjas.
In fact, the medical ninjas who perform the surgery are all adult ninjas with rich experience and superb skills.
Shiraishi didn't complain about this, so his workload would be much easier.
This kind of day lasted until the beginning of December, when the Konoha ninjas on the front line began to leave camp and return to the village, Shiraishi ended his work as a medical team.
Returning to the village from the front line, because the walk was not very fast, it took a total of three or four days to return to the village.
During the period, we have to take care of the wounded and protect the important supplies that have not been used up. We can't act too fast, otherwise we should return to the village within a day.
When he returned to the village, Baishi also enjoyed the treatment of a "hero" for the first time.
The high-level Konoha, headed by the third Hokage, led a large number of Konoha ninjas, surrounded by villagers from Konoha Village, to welcome the ninjas who had returned from the front line.
After resting for a day, Konoha held a large burial ceremony the next day.
Only more than 500 people were able to bring back the corpses, and less than one tenth of them preserved the integrity of the corpses.
And there are still a lot of ninja corpses whose corpses cannot be found, or whose corpses are so mutilated that they cannot be identified as their own, or those of Sand Hidden. There are even more ninjas in this part.
The weather in December is already very cold.
In addition to the day of the burial ceremony, the weather was not very clear, and the sun was rarely seen.
The four members of Shuo Mao's team wore pure black mourning clothes and stood in front of the newly added tombstones to express their silent tribute.
This time, the war with Shayin lasted for more than two years. It was even worse than the War of the Land of Rain, and even surpassed the War of the Land of Rain in terms of sacrifice rate.
The overall level of the ninjas who formed Shayin was far beyond that of Yuyin Village ninjas.
"I didn't see Tsunade Shinobu."
Ayane looked around and whispered.
Shiraishi also circled around, Oshemaru and Jiraiya of the Sannin also came, and even Jiraiya's disciple Minato was there, but Tsunade was the only one to be seen.
"After all, this war directly caused her to lose two of her closest relatives. It's only natural that she doesn't want to attend this kind of funeral. However, after everyone leaves, she will come here secretly."
He didn't want others to see Sannin's fragile side, and then chose a person to come to mourn. From Shiraishi's point of view, Tsunade's heart has become weak.
However, people have different levels of inner strength and weakness, and their ability to withstand bad news also varies from person to person.
This kind of thing is completely understandable for Baishi.
"You guys go back first, I'll go to Master Hokage to discuss something."
After the funeral, Shuo Mao left this sentence and walked towards the position where the third Hokage and other high-level officials were located.
Baishi and the others didn't object either, they looked at each other, and left the mausoleum park
"It seems that this year's New Year festival will be very deserted."
Ayane walked on the road and said something, as if she was regretting.
After hearing this, Baishi and Liuli also nodded slightly.
It is now December, and many families have been torn apart because of the war. Although the festival will be held as usual, it is certain that it will not be as lively as in previous years.
It's not just civilians, there are also many ninjas sacrificed by major ninja clans.
"What are we going to do next? The war is over. It always feels very sudden."
"That's because our team has never participated in a frontal war, so we think so."
Shiraishi responded to Ayane's emotion.
"You two, don't take it lightly just because the war is over. If you die, it will be very difficult to find a ninja who can match my rhythm."
Liuli poured cold water beside her.
Baishi laughed and said, "It's okay, safety first has always been my code of conduct."
The end of the war does not mean that ninjas have lost their usefulness.
In peacetime, ninjas also have to perform tasks, but compared to wartime, the task difficulty will be much lower.
Shiraishi thought that he hadn't tried to accept normal missions yet. The missions he had been doing all along were fighting enemy ninjas.
The lowest level is also a B-level task, and the regular one is an A-level task. Occasionally, they follow Shuo Mao to perform S-level tasks, and paddle behind to mix with military industry.
Thinking that Liuli and Ayane in the team are already zhongnin, and he is the only one in Sakumo's team who is the lowest level jinnin, Shiraishi is thinking about when it would be better to become a zhongnin.
After all, Genin felt a little out of place in the elite Sakumo team.
After chatting for a while, the three of them also parted ways and went home.
"Speaking of which, uncle and aunt, will you come back this year for the New Year?"
"I'll send something back."
"Really? Don't you feel lonely?"
Baishi asked.
"This kind of thing doesn't matter."
"Looks like this year it's the two of us watching the night together again."
Baishi put his hands behind his head and said casually.
"Yeah, another year without any expectations."
Liu Li said so, then glanced at the gray sky, dazed.
◎
December passed quickly, and since Konoha and Sand Yin signed an armistice agreement, no major incidents have occurred in the ninja world.
During this period, Shuo Mao's team only carried out two missions, both of which were relatively simple C-level missions. They were to destroy a bandit stronghold in the Kingdom of Fire, and escort a caravan to the neighboring country of Bo.
Compared to the peaceful ninja world, some minor things happened in Konoha Village.
That is, Tsunade resigned from Konoha Hospital and devoted himself to the ninja school's business of cultivating medical ninjas.
This baffled many people.
Among them, Shiraishi was the one who felt puzzled.
Because of Tsunade's excellent medical ninjutsu, in today's ninja world, no one can match him.
The strongest among ninjas is naturally 'Five Kages'.
But in the medical ninja world, the strongest person today is undoubtedly Tsunade.
In the eyes of medical ninjas, Tsunade is the pinnacle they want to surpass.
With Tsunade's ability, he can work at Konoha Hospital and train medical ninjas for Konoha at the ninja school at the same time. The functions of the two do not conflict with each other.
After all, working at Konoha Hospital, she is only occasionally asked to use some difficult operations. Most of the injuries can be handled by other medical ninjas.
As for this, the higher-ups didn't give any explanation, they just expressed their respect for Tsunade's own wishes.
Although he gave up his position at Konoha Hospital, Konoha's medical ninjas can still ask Tsunade for some difficult medical knowledge.
Regarding this, Tsunade didn't say anything.
It can be said that she is the greatest authority in the field of medical ninjas.
She herself is also very keen on cultivating more excellent medical ninjas for the village.
Compared with the other two of the Sannin, Tsunade's prestige is undoubtedly stronger, and he has an extremely large mass base.
The various medicines she developed for Konoha, during the war, deciphered all the poisons of Sagakushi elder Chiyo, and with her own power, greatly reduced the poison attack ability of Sagakushi's puppet troops.
Not to mention, during the war, there were countless Konoha ninjas rescued by her surgery, and many Konoha ninjas were grateful to her. Invisibly, they accumulated a large number of contacts and mass base.
If one of the three ninjas is the most likely to become Hokage in the future, Shiraishi believes that Tsunade is more likely than the other two.
Inheriting the excellent blood of her grandfather's first generation of Hokage, she has a solid mass base, countless patients have been rescued by her surgery, and her strength is outstanding in Jonin... If she herself has the will to serve as Hokage, it is estimated that few people in Konoha will object.
But this is only the opinion of Shiraishi's family, because Konoha's political environment is very...well, how should I put it, it is very special.
Shiraishi really couldn't find a suitable word to describe it, so he could only use 'special' to describe Konoha's political environment.
The Anbu, the direct subordinate force that Hokage relies most heavily on, is divided into Anbu and Genbu.
But Hokage is not in control of Root, but has the same freedom of action as Anbe.
Uchiha controls Konoha's garrison, and in some powers he surpasses Hokage's directly subordinate Anbe.
For example, the Anbu needs the Hokage order to arrest people, and the security team can detain the suspect before the Hokage order is issued.
As a ninja, Uchiha's power is very powerful.
However, for Uchiha with such great power, the headquarters of the security force is not in the Konoha Center, but in a relatively secluded place in the village, which is not conducive to the function of the security force.
There are still many problems in principle, which in Baishi's view need to be changed.
Although the first generation of Hokage established Konoha, and the second generation of Hokage created the development pattern of Ninja Village, there are many regulations that cannot be adapted to the times in the things left by the two of them.
If changes are not made in the future, some deplorable tragedies will inevitably occur.
Thinking about it carefully, Baishi felt that he was a little unfounded.
The organization matters have been formally put on the right track.
The five people he sent out are currently following behind the business group established by Liuli's parents, and have already purchased a huge site in the Kingdom of Ghosts where they can establish a base.
Shiraishi can leave Konoha and walk his own path as long as he waits for the next fiercer war to come.
His ideas, his way of thinking are incompatible with this village.
◎
January, the beginning of the new year.
To avoid suspicion, every New Year's Eve, I would participate in the festival with Liuli.
Now that Ayane has joined Shuo Mao's team, they can naturally be together aboveboard, so as not to arouse unnecessary suspicion.
A troop established in the form of a team is, in a sense, also a connection of fetters. Every member of the team is like a family.
"Happy New Year."
Putting on a brand-new white kimono with pink cherry blossom patterns painted on it, Ayane, who had been waiting on the street for a long time, bent slightly towards Shiraishi and Ruri who were walking towards her.
"Happy New Year."
The two also bent down slightly, and Liu Li didn't show her any expression.
Unlike Ayane, Liuli is wearing a light blue kimono, and her hair is tied with a blue headband. There is a gap between her hair and neck, and her snow-white and slender neck can be seen from the side.
The three of them exchanged red envelopes with each other, which was considered a gift for this year.
Because the war was still going on last month, even if it was the New Year.
Konoha's New Year celebration this year will be a little quieter.
It's not yet time for the night festival to start, but there are many festive things hanging on the road.
For example, there are fountains made of straw ropes, and some people put pine and bamboo in front of their houses.
On the street, there are already children running on the road with toys, and their laughter can still be heard.
Hearing the laughter of these children, even the sadness brought about by the war was washed away a lot.
"Liuli, your kimono is very beautiful."
"Well, yours is not bad either."
Liuli glanced at the kimono on Ayane. The kimono with white as the base material and pink cherry blossom pattern really fit Ayane's pure and gentle temperament.
"Yes, after all, this is the best gift I received this year."
Ayane said with a smile like this.
"Speaking of which, where are you two going to play?"
After hearing what Ayane said, he was afraid that she might say something unnecessary at this time, so Baishi quickly changed the subject skillfully.
"I heard that there are several new shops opened in the village. Let's go there and have a look. After we have had enough fun, we will go to barbecue with Teacher Shuo Mao in the evening."
As soon as she thought that there would be an incomparably sumptuous meal in the evening, Ayane began to look forward to tonight's festival in her heart.
Baishi and Liuli have no objection to this.
The focus is on the barbecue at night.
For this, the three of Baishi planned not to eat anything during the day.
To be honest, Shiraishi is not very interested in shopping, but he also knows that the fun of Liuli and Ayane's shopping lies in the atmosphere, rather than actually buying something.
Leaving Liuli aside, Ayane's family environment is not bad, and she doesn't have too much attachment to material pursuits.
Otherwise, with Ayane's appetite, ordinary families would have been eaten up.
After all the calculations, he is the poorest one.
Liuli and Ayane were there to evaluate and communicate with each other about a certain product. Occasionally, Shiraishi would intervene and give some opinions. The atmosphere was very harmonious, like a family.
Time passed unconsciously, and the sky began to darken.
More and more people came to the street.
Thin white snow began to fall in the sky, adding a bit of chilliness, but after the number of people increased, the chilliness could not be felt at all.
The ninjas who are usually busy at work also took off their ninja clothes one after another, put on brand new clothes, and participated in the night festival together.
Gradually, the lively atmosphere became more lively.
There are open-air plays, in which people wear strange costumes and ghost masks on their heads, and perform bizarre ghost stories, attracting the attention of many children.
The children on the street were jumping and jumping, and even the shouts of the adults were ignored.
"I'm not late."
After shopping in the afternoon, Baishi and the other three waited at the agreed place. Not long after, Shuo Mao in casual clothes appeared in front of the three.
He also held a two-year-old child in his arms, tightly huddled in Shuo Mao's arms, keeping warm there.
"No, there is still half an hour before the scheduled time. Is this Teacher Shuo Mao's child? It's so cute."
Ayayin looked at the child in Shuo Mao's arms. Like Shuo Mao, they both had white hair.
He was looking at Ayane with curious eyes.
"Okay, you can come down, Kakashi."
Shuo Mao put down the child in his arms.
This child already had the ability to walk independently. After being placed on the snow by Shuo Mao, he stood there blankly, not knowing what to do.
Ayayin went up to hold him in her arms, and didn't cry, but he lowered the corners of his eyes, showing a very arrogant expression.
Although the eyes are full of vitality, this expression... As expected, it would be more comfortable to beat him up.
Baishi didn't think this kind of kid was so cute.
"This kid is very energetic."
Ayane said with a smile.
"There is one thing. His body has always been healthy, and he will become an excellent ninja in the future."
"Teacher Shuo Mao, today is a rare celebration, can you not say such disappointing words? It's hard to escape from the busy tasks."
"Sorry, professional habits."
Because Shuo Mao had a pair of insightful eyes to see through the essence of things, Shuo Mao subconsciously said those words.
"Liuli, do you want to give me a hug?"
Ayane looked at Liuli.
"No, this brat's eyes are too arrogant. It makes me want to beat him up."
Seeing Kakashi's posture with the corners of his eyes hanging, Liuli felt a little unhappy.
Baishi nodded aside, he thought so too.
This kid must be a bad guy when he grows up.
"No, I think little Kakashi's eyes are proof of his spirit."
"Where is the spirit?"
"Oh, it seems that Liuli doesn't have the potential to be a good wife and mother."
Ayane seemed to laugh in a proud tone.
Liuli snorted, and said in a disdainful tone: "Excessive compassion will only harm others and oneself."
As she spoke, she looked at Baishi with sharp eyes, as if she wanted him to give a fair evaluation.
"Okay, you two, let's enjoy such a lively festival."
Shuo Mao said.
Baishi heaved a sigh of relief, and gave Shuo Mao a grateful look.
Shuo Mao patted Baishi's shoulder, as if saying: I can only help here.
Things for young people are really complicated. With Shuo Mao's gaze, he could naturally see some ambiguous relationship between Baishi and the three of them, and he sighed helplessly in his heart.
The next four people entered the barbecue restaurant not far away.
This barbecue restaurant is the old place where the Shuo Mao team celebrated when it was established.
Shuo Mao was deeply impressed by this.
Because of one meal, he was paid for an A-level task.
"Eat less. Eating too much is bad for your stomach."
Before ordering food, Shuo Mao said seriously.
For the sake of the health of the three of them, they are definitely not worrying about their own wallets.
He Konoha Baiya, after all, is also a well-known jounin in the village.
Just a few hundred thousand taels...
It's better to be cautious.
"But in order to cope with tonight's big meal, the three of us didn't eat a grain of rice during the day."
Ayane looked at Sakumo with innocent eyes.
"Is this the size of Konoha Shirato (laughs)? It's really disappointing."
The smile on Liuli's face was very contemptuous.
"No way, it's Konoha Baiya after all (laughs)."
Baishi also followed behind to fan the flames.
I've been hungry all day, so I must eat a lot tonight.
Shuo Mao couldn't laugh or cry, these guys, except for Baishi, the other two were not short of this money, why did they have to make trouble with his wallet?
I should have never offended them during my missions, but instead took good care of them, right?
"Send all of these up."
After everyone had chosen what they wanted to eat, Baishi called a waiter and asked him to prepare it.
The waiter saw the selected ingredients and the quantity on the order... very worried about whether they could finish the table.
But when he saw Ayane, a very familiar little girl, he smiled knowingly.
Not only are the ingredients selected the most expensive and the best, but the portions are also very large. It can be said that they are a big customer of this barbecue restaurant.
——Two hours later.
Everyone had enough food and drink. When paying, Shuo Mao looked at the huge amount on the bill, rolled his eyes slightly, and showed a look of lovelessness.
Although it wouldn't make him bankrupt, it was just a barbecue, which still made him feel very distressed.
But if this kind of thing happens several times a year, it's only a matter of time before he, the captain, goes bankrupt.
"Thank you for the hospitality, Teacher Shuo Mao."
Looking at the contented faces of the three of them, especially Ayane, she was the one who ate the most.
"The three of you have to think about my wallet."
"But among our team, only Mr. Sakumo is a Jonin."
"After all, he is the most powerful Junin-sama."
"That's right, a qualified Jnin is one who can consider the teammates in the team. Thinking about it this way, he is worthy of Konoha Baiya."
Seeing that the three of them praised him, Shuo Mao felt even more headache.
Obviously, he was called Konoha Baiya (laughs) before, because of his small size.
The face-changing speed is too fast.
After talking and joking for a while, Sakumo took Kakashi to play elsewhere, and Shiraishi and the other three didn't bother him.
It was about twelve o'clock, and it was very late.
A thick layer of snow has accumulated on the road.
The festival also changed from lively to deserted, and many shops began to close.
"This year's festival is a little more fun than before. After all, I always feel a little bit reluctant to participate in the festival with my clansmen. It would be great if it could be like this every year in the future."
Ayane put her hands behind her back, lowered her head and stepped on the snow step by step seriously, then raised her face suddenly, and said with a smile to Baishi and Liuli.
"Of course it can be like this every year. We are companions in a small team."
Baishi replied like this.
"Yes. Speaking of which, I like this year's gift very much, so I'll thank you too, Mr. Baishi..."
"ah?"
When Ayane mentioned this matter suddenly, Shiraishi knew that things were getting troublesome, and was about to use an excuse to change the topic.
A piece of softness touched Shiraishi's cheek, and Ayane's white, crystal-clear and delicate profile was in front of him, making him instantly stiff in place.
Liuli was also stunned, forgetting to move.
"Although it's not my first kiss, it's a unique mark I've left on Mr. Baishi, and it's very commemorative. So, goodbye."
Ayayin smiled shyly, and ran away in the snow with light steps.
While Baishi was still in a daze, Liuli's face turned red with anger.
It was a sense of humiliation that one's most cherished 'toy' was snatched away by others without hesitation.
This sense of humiliation filled her mind with dark thoughts of wanting to destroy everything.
I have no other ideas.
"This, this, this—shameless! How shameless! Dirty! Fornicated woman!"
With that said, Liuli made a mudra with her hands, gathering all the chakras in her body.
"Go to hell! Huo Dun·Huo Huo——"
"Wait! Don't mess around in the village!"
Baishi reacted, and immediately stepped forward to stop Liuli, throwing her down on the snow to prevent the fire escape technique from being performed. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com
After all, it's really not very auspicious for Anbu to come to you for the New Year's Eve.
Ayane, who was some distance away from here, naturally heard the commotion behind her, but her mind was no longer on it.
She touched her lips with her fingers, where there was the breath of Baishi.
This year will be a very good start.
◎
In mid-January.
The four members of Shuo Mao's team gathered at the gate of Muye Village.
"This mission is to suppress an illegal organization in the territory of Fire Extinguishing Kingdom. There seem to be ninjas in it, so it's a B-level mission, and it can be upgraded to an A-level mission at any time. It's not a difficult mission, but don't be careless..."
When Shuo Mao was explaining the mission, he suddenly found that the atmosphere in the team was a bit strange.
Ayane had a gentle and harmless innocent smile on her face, as if she didn't notice the strange atmosphere in the team.
Liuli's extremely ferocious eyes aimed at Ayane made Shuo Mao suspect that she would tear Ayane apart.
"Baishi, what happened to the two of them?"
Sakumo looked at Shiraishi, the most ordinary and most normal medical ninja in the team.
"It's nothing, girls will have..."
Liuli walked directly to the side and stepped on Baishi's foot, making him turn blue and speechless.
"Teacher Shuo Mao said that the task is very dangerous, so don't get out of my sight, otherwise I won't guarantee your safety."
Hearing Liuli's threatening words, Baishi could only nod his head in agreement.
Since that day, Liuli's face has become very scary.
It doesn't make sense to reason with a woman who is extremely angry.
Shuo Mao scratched his head. For some reason, the team's running-in seemed to become difficult.
