However, after the initial construction of Nishikawa was completed, the heads of each ninja family took the initiative to give up their positions to draw a clear line with the headquarters, which made the four of them unable to help but worry about gains and losses.

Fortunately, the rope tree did not take the Senju clan away, and the Konoha Foundation was still operating normally. Moreover, although the rope tree did not take the initiative to report the situation to Konoha during this period, he would seriously answer the letters and inquiries from the headquarters.

However, Naoki shied away from the urge to return to Konoha on the grounds that it was inseparable from the initial establishment of the western territory. Even the other three disciples of the Hokage refused to return to Konoha.

This ambiguous attitude really left the headquarters confused, but they could not dare to take measures for fear that it would stimulate the rope tree and cause civil strife, so they could only continue to compromise and wait patiently, guessing and guessing like this. The trust between both parties will only become less and less, and sooner or later problems will arise.

But Naoki had no intention of openly announcing his plan to the Third Hokage and others like before.

Since the last removal incident, Naoki has realized that the situation in Konoha has begun to change.

The Third Hokage was too emotional, Danzo's ambitions began to expand, and the two advisors also had selfish motives. If no changes were made, Konoha would gradually decay like in the original work.Even if Naoki finally succeeded in assuming the position of Hokage, it would be difficult for him to realize his plan under the balance and restraint of all parties.

So he simply took the Sannin and [-] elites to start anew and establish an independent kingdom completely controlled by himself. This way he would have a lot less constraints in the future, and he could use foreign aid to suppress the power of the older generation and improve his own strength. that power.

What's even better is that the group of ninjas under Nao Shu's command either died in battle or left Konoha and flew away in the original work, which is also in line with the general trend of the plot. Although the plot has changed drastically now, Nao Shu still does his best to maintain it. .

In order to complete his future plans without truly breaking away from the headquarters, Naoki must express his release signal to the headquarters in a politician's way. It just so happened that Nishikawa was currently short of genin, so he simply wrote to the headquarters and applied to them for all the genin who had graduated in the past few years. Transferred to Xichuan Branch.

After Konoha Headquarters received Nashu's application, instead of feeling excessive, they were very happy, because this move showed that Noshu had no intention of completely splitting with him, and in recent years, there have been more and more genin in Konoha, and even the leading ninjas Even if it is not enough, there has been a situation where one teacher leads multiple genin teams. Transferring a group of genin can actually reduce the burden on the headquarters.

So Konoha quickly and generously agreed to Nasuki's request.

Less than two days later, Konoha's genin team arrived at the Nishikawa branch. Naoki personally led the branch's senior officials to greet them outside the village. This group of genin was a timely blessing for them and must be taken seriously.

What surprised Naoki was that the leaders were none other than three of his former teammates, Sarutobi Shinnosuke, Uchiha Hikari, and Matt Dai.

Due to the large gap in strength, Naoki was temporarily separated from the three of them. He led [-] elites of the older generation to march westward to the Kingdom of Rain, while these three teammates and other new-generation ninjas followed the Nara chief to station in the Kingdom of Fire. Northern border.

All in all, the four of them have not seen each other for three full years. Now Naoki is 14 years old, Shinnosuke and Hikaru, who are several years older than him, are already adults, and Matt Dai is a young man in his 20s. .

Three years of separation did not affect the relationship between several young friends. They were very happy to reunite after a long absence, and the four friends started talking casually in front of everyone.

"Rose Tree, I didn't expect that you would be almost as tall as us after I haven't seen you for three years. If this continues, won't you be taller than us?"

Shinnosuke stretched out his right hand to compare his and Nasuki's foreheads. Even though he was an adult, he still couldn't change his careless personality. He started to pay attention to the height issue as soon as they met.

Shinnosuke inherited the genes of three generations, and is only of medium height, probably about 1.7 meters [-].

The Rope Tree is assisted by the Willpower System. After years of scientific training, his body has been perfectly developed. At the age of 14, he is already 1.7 meters tall. Moreover, these few years have been the period of his fastest development. He will definitely grow to [-] meters in the future. Eight or more.

Before Nashu could answer, Matt Dai said seriously: "Don't give up, Shinnosuke. Youth has infinite possibilities. As long as you work hard, you will definitely grow taller. Let's do it for the 10055th time based on height." Let’s duel”

Looking at Matt's thumbs up and the big teeth shining with white light, even Shinnosuke, who had seen it countless times, couldn't help but shudder reflexively. In the past few years, he has been psychologically troubled by this thick eyebrow. Yin sign, whenever the other party shows this expression, something bad will happen.

However, when he glanced at the watermelon head opposite him and found that he was half a head shorter than himself, he gestured with a proud smile and said: "This is already obvious, why bother comparing?"

Of course, Matt Dai would not be so stupid that he could not figure out who was taller and who was shorter. The smile on his face was even brighter and he said: "Of course it is not about the height difference, but about who will grow taller in the next month. , so work hard Shinnosuke and don’t lose to me in terms of height.”

"Wait a minute," Shinnosuke said with an annoyed look on his face: "Who wants to engage in such a childish competition with an idiot like you? You can't improve things just by hard work. If you just rely on hard work, how can you, an idiot?" Will be the shortest among the four of us.”

"Is that so? It seems to make sense. Teacher Shengshu, what do you think?" Matt Dai asked Shengshu with a puzzled look on his face.

At this time, Shengshu said with a smile: "According to scientific research, reasonable diet and exercise will indeed affect the height growth of the human body. Some people can still grow taller at the age of 24. With your two ages, theoretically It is possible to continue to grow taller. And Shinnosuke should be more dominant."

"It's true that as long as you work hard, you can do it. This is youth." After receiving the affirmation from the rope tree, Matt Dai regained his energy again, "That's it. Shinnosuke, we will have a showdown in one month."

Shinnosuke looked at Matt Dai, who was as if he had been injected with chicken blood, and waved his hand in dismay: "It's up to you."

"Hahaha" Nao Shu said with a smile on his face: "I didn't expect that after three years of not seeing each other, the bond between the two of you has become deeper and deeper. It's really gratifying."

Uchiha Hikaru, who had been silent for a long time, nodded and agreed with a smile: "Yes, yes, according to my observations over the years, the personalities of Shinnosuke and Dai are becoming more and more compatible. The two of them will definitely become a lifelong bond."

"I think you two are a match made in heaven. You look exactly the same when you smile." Shinnosuke said to the two of them with a look of disgust on his face.

Matt Dai also nodded in agreement.

"Uh" Naoki and Hikaru didn't expect to be teased in return, so they looked at each other awkwardly.

Then the four of them looked at each other with strange expressions, looked at each other, and suddenly burst out laughing together.

The people on the side really didn't understand why they were laughing so much, but they were envious of the three people who could talk casually with Shengshu.

Only the three ninja on the side exchanged tacit glances and smiled knowingly.
