Chapter 540: Don't expel me as a beast
Chapter 540 Don’t expel me from the animal status
The white light dissipated, and the Pokémon egg disappeared without a trace, leaving only the soft cushion that Nagato used to rest the egg.
Of course, this is not because Muyue gave Nagato a fake Pokémon egg.
Perceiving the sight and slight coldness coming from behind, Nagato looked back.
What caught the eye was a purple smoke, and in the center of the smoke was a **** ball. On the **** ball was a pair of big white eyes and a mouth with a pair of fangs.
When Nagato looked at Big Black Ball, Big Black Ball’s big eyes were also looking at Nagato curiously.
After seeing Guisi clearly, Nagato subconsciously took half a step back.
Although he usually doesn't judge people by their appearance, the unknown existence in front of him doesn't look like a creature from the underworld.
Nagato felt that no matter who he was, if he turned around and saw a black ball with purple smoke and eyes and a mouth attached to his face, he would subconsciously back away.
Only taking half a step back showed that he was very confident in his own strength.
Seeing Nagato leaving, Mu Yue took out her Pokémon egg and took a look at it.
Nagato nodded and walked out, and Guisi floated behind Nagato and left the training room together.
“Ehehehe!”
But soon the smile on Yahiko's face turned serious, because he saw a mysterious figure shrouded in purple smoke rising slowly behind Nagato.
Of course, even if Uchiha Madara and even Black Zetsu know that Mu Yue is Soyousuke, Mu Yue will not care.
“Kou Jie!”
Uchiha Madara can make the already chaotic situation even more chaotic through his own arrangements, but in terms of actual manpower that can be mobilized, Uchiha Madara is far behind Muyue.
He stayed anonymous at first because he didn't want Uchiha Madara to interfere with his recruitment of Nagato.
Since Ghost is really a ninja beast, Nagato did not hesitate and signed a contract with Ghost.
But as far as fighting is concerned, Ghost really suits Nagato very well.
“Teacher Muyue, can I take it out, or do I have to let it stay in the training room for the time being?” Nagato asked Muyue.
Compared to Konoha's Sun Muyue being a ninja master, Soyousuke's conspiracy theory that everything was planned by the Rain Ninja Village seems more credible.
Announcement of Mu Yue's identity will make other countries wary of Konoha and the Ninja Sect in order to cause trouble for Mu Yue? Uchiha Madara couldn't do it.
“There is no doubt that it is, but it’s a bit more peculiar.” Mu Yue walked into the training room and said.
Because if Uchiha Madara asked White Zetsu to spread the news, no one would believe it.
Nagato sensed it and found that there was nothing but ghosts behind him, and he couldn't help but show a puzzled expression.
Ghost greeted Nagato with a friendly smile. For some reason, it felt very friendly to Nagato.
This is why Muyue confessed everything to Nagato very quickly after accepting him as a disciple, because if he didn't do this, Uchiha Madara might use this to deceive Nagato.
To put it bluntly, compared to ninja beasts, he felt that ghosts were more like monsters from legends.
“Okay, there’s no need to let it stay here anymore.” Mu Yue replied.
In the Land of Rain, Mu Yue is a highly regarded ninja master. In addition to his own ninja sect, he can also activate the power of rain ninja after consultation with Hanzo.
It’s true that Nagato has never seen strange-looking psychic beasts, but none as strange as ghosts.
Even though they were obtained together, Mu Yue’s Pokémon eggs still showed no signs of hatching.
The current situation is very beneficial to Mu Yue. Even if Uchiha Madara knows his identity information, there is nothing else he can do except use his own power to cause trouble for Mu Yue.
There is a huge gap between Ghost and Obito's Pokémon in terms of ability and appearance. No one would associate Ghost with Obito's Pokémon.
The Ninja Beast egg hatches, and then Guis appears in the training room. According to common sense, Guis is the newly hatched Ninja Beast.
Ghost's egg has been staying in the training room without any windows since Mu Yue handed it to Nagato. Nagato wanted to take Ghost out for a walk.
“Nagato, be careful!” Yahiko shouted, and then rushed towards Nagato.
If Ghost evolves, there will still be something in common, but there is no way to equate Soyousuke and Hanyu Mozuki based on this.
Mu Yue also didn’t expect Nagato’s Pokémon to be Ghost.
The only shortcoming of Nagato is physical skills, and Guisi has a strong hiding ability and can lurk beside Nagato to protect him.
After all, Uchiha Madara has been pretending to be dead for decades. Every village has changed from the first generation Kage to the third generation. The faster Sunagakure has even passed down to the fourth generation Kazekage.
Uchiha Madara has no way to play with Mu Yue on public opinion.
When Guisi heard Mu Yue praising it for being strange, he immediately laughed and floated around Nagato.
He thought it would be Ibrahimovic or something, after all, Nagato has many attributes.
Soon, Nagato thought about it carefully. Based on the image of Ghost, maybe Yahiko was talking about Ghost.
Mu Yue is considered the second-in-command in Konoha, and Sarutobi Hiruzen also trusts Mu Yue.
Now that the apprenticeship has been successfully accepted, Mu Yue and Nagato have established a good master-disciple relationship, and there is no need to worry about Uchiha Madara coming to cause trouble.
“Is this a ninja beast?” Nagato fell into deep thought.
Of course, this friendliness was just what Guisi thought. From Nagato's perspective, it was a black ball with purple smoke that made a weird smile.
“Nagato.” Yahiko, who was about to go out for a walk, saw Nagato and said hello with a smile.
"It's okay, Yahiko, don't worry." Nagato, who wanted to understand, comforted him.
Although Guisi doesn't look much like a creature from the underworld, it is a ninja beast certified by Mu Yue personally, so there will be no problem.
"How can it be okay? There is something like a ghost floating behind you." Yahiko couldn't help but complain.
Although Yahiko didn’t believe in ghosts before, after seeing it with his own eyes, even if he didn’t believe it, he had to believe it.
“If you don’t believe it, just look back.” After Yahiko said this, he turned his eyes back to Nagato and found that the purple mysterious figure disappeared.
“Hey, that’s weird, did I see it wrong?” Yahiko couldn’t help but reach his hand back to grab his hair, but in the end, he felt an inexplicable coldness like extending his hand into ice water.
Yahiko looked back subconsciously, and a black ball with big eyes, surrounded by an ominous purple mist, came into view.
“Ghost!”
Yahiko's eyes widened, and he was caught off guard and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Nagato's quick eyesight and quick hands caught Yahiko, and this saved Yahiko from having close contact with the ground.
“Nagato, use Shinra Tensei quickly!” Yahiko shouted while condensing chakra.
The distance between Guisi and them is too close. In this position, Shinra Tianzheng, which can be cast instantly without forming a seal, is very useful.
“Well, actually it’s my psychic beast.” Nagato explained.
He said that it was normal for Guisi to take half a step back when he saw Guisi. Yahiko almost fell down.
“Oh, it turns out to be a psychic beast.” Yahiko made an expression of sudden realization.
“I can’t understand it at all. Whose psychic beast looks like this?” Yahiko looked at Guisi again and couldn’t stand it anymore.
This purple smoke, these black balls, these big eyes, what kind of good psychic beast looks like this?
“Kou Jie!”
Hearing that Yahiko actually complained about its appearance, Guisi immediately became unhappy and stuck out his long pink tongue at Yahiko.
‘Tongue licking! ’
Although he was unable to cause actual damage to Yahiko due to his low strength and lack of chakra when he was born, it did make Yahiko's eyes darken and he wanted to wash his face a dozen times.
"Although it is a little different from ordinary beasts, it is indeed a ninja beast." Nagato repeated Mu Yue's explanation to him.
Although the ghost did not look like a creature from the underworld, it did not show any aggression. Yahiko had no choice but to believe Nagato's words.
“Nagato, let’s go and see what the others are doing.” Yahiko thought for a while, then took Nagato to find Jiusuke.
But he couldn’t be the only one to be scared. Yahiko had to let others get to know Nagato, this unusual psychic beast.
Anyway, as Nagato's psychic beast, others will see him sooner or later.
“Not so good?” Nagato looked hesitant.
Although it is not good to judge people by their appearance, the appearance of a ghost will attack those who see it first.
"What's wrong with this? Let's get to know each other first, so as not to make mistakes later." Yahiko gave a very valid reason.
If a person encounters Ghost, Yahiko will definitely have a fight with Ghost.
Nagato thought about it for a while, and Guisiya looked very interested, so he agreed.
“Ghost!”
Just like this, exclamations kept appearing in the Ninja sect's station. Ghost used a strange appearance to make a large number of ninjas in the Ninja sect remember its image.
…
The Budokai is over, and Mu Yue does not need to use public opinion means. All kinds of news about the Budokai are flying all over the ninja world.
After all, the Budokai has attracted much attention for various reasons before, and now so many surprising things have happened at the Budokai, the popularity has naturally increased.
But what surprised many ninjas in the ninja world the most was that the first place was actually taken away by the ninja of the ninja sect. It was really shocking.
Ninjas who pay attention to the Youth Budokai know that Iwagakure and Konoha attach the most importance to the Youth Budokai.
Not only did they dispatch many talented ninjas in the village, but they also dispatched strong men to lead the team.
Iwagakure sent out the third-generation Tsuchikage's son Huang Tu, while Konoha sent out Lieyang Muyue.
This posture obviously does not allow one's own ninja to win first place through the secret operation of the ninja sect.
After all, no matter how good the draw is for your own players, you will still have to compete with the strongest players for first place in the end, and you can only rely on your strength.
So some people gave Nagato the title of the most talented ninja in the ninja world, thinking that Nagato is the most talented ninja in the current ninja world.
The person who originally proposed it may sincerely believe that Nagato's strength is unparalleled. But as the momentum grew, it became a bit flattering.
There is no genius among the five strongest ninja villages in the ninja world who is called the number one genius in the ninja world. If a ninja force from a small country suddenly gets such a title, it is difficult for people not to think in the direction of conspiracy theories.
In addition to being ranked first, the strong performance of the Konoha ninjas in the Youth Martial Arts Tournament also shocked many people's jaws.
Although Iwagakure showed equal importance to Konoha, in terms of ninja competition results, the results of Iwagakure ninja were lower than those of Konoha ninja.
Since the top eight, the proportion of Konoha ninjas has become exaggerated. Five of the top eight are from Konoha, and three of the top four are from Konoha.
As for Iwagakure, no ninja successfully entered the top eight.
Of course, Iwagakure was not the only one in the Great Ninja Village that did not enter the top eight. Sunagakure and Kumogakure were both eliminated in the first round.
But Sunagakure and Kumogakure didn't send many ninjas to begin with, so it was obviously not the same situation as Iwagakure.
In Iwagakure Village, Tsuchikage's office, Onoki had a headache looking at the martial arts club information submitted by Huang Tu.
"In terms of talented ninjas, Iwagakure is actually so much worse than Konoha." Ohnoki rubbed his brows.
This is really not the same as not knowing, it is shocking to compare.
As a responsible Tsuchikage, Ohnoki certainly knew that Iwagakure did not have that kind of outstanding talent in recent years.
But he really didn't expect that there was such a big gap between Konoha and Iwagakure in terms of young ninjas.
Feldspar is already one of the strongest young talents in Iwagakure, but he was instantly killed by Metkai with a punch at the Youth Martial Arts Tournament.
It would be fine if there was only one Metkai in Konoha. There are several other super geniuses in Konoha who are slightly inferior to Metkai.
“Looking at it this way, Soyousuke’s side is more important.” Ohnoki fell into deep thought.
If the Ninja Sect can help them cultivate better ninjas, it can alleviate Iwakaku's current situation to a certain extent.
But in Ōnoki's plan, Iwagakure is most likely going to be on the opposite side of the Ninja clan.
Because Ohnoki initially helped Ninja Sect Rain Ninja in peace talks with the intention of creating hatred so that the Kingdom of Rain could contain Konoha.
As long as it is a strategy, it may be discovered. If the Ninja Sect discovers what Iwagakure has done, the Ninja Sect will definitely break up with Iwagakure.
“Change the plan, change the subject to Ameno Village, and let Ameno Village drive the Ninja Sect to contain Konoha?” Onoki thought of a solution.
Although in terms of the result, Iwagakure was still causing trouble in the Land of Rain, he was no longer a ninja sect.
The disadvantage of this change is also obvious, that is, the Ninja Sect may not be able to contribute.
Because from Onoki's perspective, the Ninja Sect and the Ameno Ninja Village are just two forces that unite because they are afraid of each other. In this case, it is really normal for the Ninja Sect not to help the Ameno Ninja Village fight against Konoha.
“Take another look at the situation.” Ohnoki suppressed the anxiety in his heart.
Although the gap between the top young ninjas has been widened, Iwagakure's overall strength is now no worse than Konoha, because Iwagakure has tens of thousands of ninja troops.
So as long as Iwagakure finds an opportunity to destroy Konoha in this battle, there is no need to worry about Konoha's strength surpassing it.
…
The country of thunder, Yunyin Village.
The Fourth Ai looked at the news of the Youth Budokai and smiled disdainfully, "You dare to be called the number one genius in the ninja world just after winning a competition held by your own force. It is really arrogant and ignorant."
"If they don't need to be familiar with the power of the tailed beasts, I really want you to give them a little more knowledge." Yondaime looked at Kirabi who was exercising and said.
Since he became the new Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki, Kirabi was restricted from leaving the village.
Yondaime doesn't think that Nagato Metkai Obito and his like can defeat Kirabi.
The fourth generation Ai witnessed Kirabi getting stronger step by step. In his opinion, Kirabi could even surpass him.
Even he can surpass him. What else can he be if he is not the number one genius in the ninja world?
"Yu Ninja **** are so arrogant. If they don't have to practice, they must look good." Kirabi responded to the fourth generation Aido in his own unique rap accent.
“You bastard, if you want to talk during practice, just talk to me!”
The fourth generation Ai couldn't help but his eyelids twitched when he saw how funny Kirabi was in practicing, and punched Kirabi on the head.
He feels that Kirabi's unpopularity in Yunyin Village now has nothing to do with Yawei. It is entirely due to Kirabi's rap that disturbs the people regardless of the occasion.
“Even the eldest brother can’t make me give up my gorgeous rhythm, yeah!” Kirabi, who was beaten by Fatty, was still not ready to change.
At this moment, Tutai suddenly came into sight of Fourth Generation Ai.
“Please come with me to the conference room of Yunyin Building.” Tudai said.
The Fourth Ai nodded, without asking why, and walked directly to the Kumogakure Building with Todai.
After entering the Raikage's office, the fourth generation Ai discovered that in addition to his father, the third generation Raikage, there were several other Kumogakure elite ninjas in the conference room.
“Okay, let’s get started.” The Third Raikage nodded when he saw that Dodai and his son were present.
“Let me tell you your opinion on which ninja village Kumogakure will focus on next.”
Due to problems with the Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki, Kumogakure is actually not as arrogant as he was two years ago and has restrained himself a lot.
They were just in a confrontation with Konoha, and the only one who fought a little more fiercely was Sunagakure.
Logically speaking, Kumogakure should continue to fight Sunagakure, but with the end of Sunagakure's civil strife, the current Sunagakure Third Kazekage would be so easy to bully just after he disappeared.
Of course, not only for this reason, but also because of the geographical location. It is actually quite difficult to defeat Sunagakure from Kumogakure, and you have to pass through several small countries to reach it.
In the past, there was hope to capture Sunagakure, so you didn’t have to worry about this problem, but now that Sunagakure is getting harder and harder to defeat, various problems are gradually exposed.
"Iwagakure Village is a good choice. Our ninjas can take a boat directly to the east coast of Iwagakure, or they can choose to log in in the north of Takino Country and then enter the Earth Country." Yumogakure said.
In fact, in terms of ninja marching speed, traveling by boat is not necessarily faster than traveling on land, but sea transportation is better because it is direct and does not have to pass through any country.
The more countries the march passes through, the easier it is for intelligence to be exposed or to be ambushed.
“And according to the war situation between Iwagakure and Konoha, Iwagakure is not strong and there are not many strong people worth paying attention to.”
Although Kumogakure Village is remembered by many ninjas in the ninja world as reckless men, they are not really brainless. They have always sent spies to collect war intelligence from each village.
“I think Konoha is the best choice.” At this time, a Kumogakure ninja wearing glasses spoke.
“Although Konoha seems strong at the moment, it has fought several battles and lost many ninjas. Although strong men like Yellow Flash Fierce Sun Muyue have emerged, the strength of middle and low-level ninjas is definitely not as good as before.”
"If we don't take this opportunity to defeat Konoha, and wait for Konoha to regain its strength in a few years, Kumogakure may not be able to defeat Konoha."
“Why don’t you try to cause trouble with Kirigakure? They even killed one jinchuriki.”
The fourth generation Ai watched silently as those Yunyin elites spoke enthusiastically without saying a word.
He was only called over by the Third Raikage to study. On such occasions, he usually just listened and did not speak.
After discussing for about three hours, the Third Raikage stopped the meeting, "That's it for today, let's break up the meeting!"
The strategic decision of the entire Ninja Village and even the national level obviously cannot be made easily, and the Third Raikage currently has no clear idea.
We must fight anyway. If we don't fight them, Yunyin's strength accumulated for so long will not be in vain.
But who to hit and how to hit is a big problem.
…
The land of fire, Konoha.
"I didn't expect that the Ninja sect would have such outstanding young ninjas. Even Matt Kai and Kakashi didn't get first place." Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the Youth Budokai information with a look of pity.
He really wanted to take a look at the legendary Fire Dragon Dance.
After all, it was fire versus water that suppressed Hanzo's fire escape ninjutsu. It's hard for a fire escape master like him not to be curious.
"However, our ninjas in Konoha are generally very good." Sarutobi Hiruzen was quite satisfied with the results of the Budokai.
Although Konoha did not get first place, the rewards from second to fourth place were rounded up by Konoha, so it was not in vain.
However, the two to four rewards are not the biggest gain for Konoha from participating in the Martial Arts Festival. The bigger gain is that the number of Konoha's commissions has increased.
Nagato’s strength is certainly amazing, but Konoha has shown extraordinary foundation. There are five Konoha ninjas in the top eight.
"Asuma is actually tied with Kakashi in the top eight. Why don't you give him a beating so that he doesn't have the illusion that he is already on par with Kakashi." Sarutobi Hiruzen showed a thoughtful expression.
There is also a gap between the top eight. The reason why Kakashi is in the top eight is because he met Metkai, so he is only the top eight, while Asuma is obviously a bit lucky.
Thinking of the experience of exchanging teachings with Mu Yue, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally shook his head.
Asma traveled through mountains and rivers to the Land of Rain to compete, so he should be treated more leniently.
Of course, in order to prevent Asma from misunderstanding, the reminder should still be given, but it can be put a little later to make Asma happy first.
Sarutobi Hiruzen was in a good mood, but Shimura Danzo was very depressed.
He originally wanted to take advantage of the Youth Martial Arts Association to cause trouble, but it turned out that Mu Yue was too well prepared in all aspects, and the fundamental power of the Kingdom of Rain was unable to attack.
Danzo Shimura had no other choice but to look at the intelligence. He didn't have much power at his disposal during the war, and the Ninja Sect was not a soft persimmon, so he couldn't force it.
"Repulsion, gravity, and absorption of ninjutsu, these must be the abilities of the Rinnegan Eye!" Looking at Nagato's information, Danzo Shimura's desire for the Rinnegan Eye became even stronger.
In his opinion, the strength of this young boy Nagato is all due to the Rinnegan, otherwise how could he win the Konoha Ninja.
The more Shimura Danzo thought about it, the more he felt that he had to get the Rinnegan Eye. With his strength and the Rinnegan Eye, Sarutobi Hiruzen could not be his opponent.
PS: This chapter is 6k, and the author has considered the choice of Nagato’s Pokémon for a long time.
I thought about Eevee, who can evolve and degenerate, and also thought about a ninja frog that can change freely, because Nagato has a variety of chakra attributes, but in the end I chose a more naughty ghost.
Because Xiaoji felt that the overall atmosphere over Nagato was not very relaxing, and they needed someone who could bring them joy as a diversion.
In addition, there are also some personal reasons. A long time ago, the author had a Pokémon novel that I liked very much. The protagonist’s initial Pokémon was Ghost. Unfortunately, the book was unfinished...
