Konoha: The Strong Man Who Walked Out of the Grave

"Why do you look so listless?"

Nara Shikaku returned home and found Nara Shikamaru sitting on the chessboard looking helpless.

"Dad, no one will die in that elite plan, right?"

After careful consideration, Nara Shikamaru asked.

After all, the Hokage's tone during the day made him lose confidence in that elite plan.

"Already signed up?"

After hearing Nara Shikamaru's question, Nara Shikaku glanced at him.

"I signed up, and Choji also signed up. I don't care about Ino, but uncle Haiichi will convince her on his own."

Nara Shikamaru answered truthfully.

Sometimes children are too smart, and parents are under great pressure, such as Nara Shikaku now.

"You kid can figure everything out, but you're just too lazy."

Nara Shikaku stroked his forehead.

"Didn't I learn this from you?"

Nara Shikamaru looked at Nara Shikaku angrily.

Nara Shikaku choked on Nara Shikamaru's words.

"Ahem, don't worry. The elite plan is to select people with potential for in-depth training. There is a high probability that no one will die. Moreover, you don't just sign up to receive elite training. There will be selections, and those who fail will be Go back to the same life as before.”

Nara Shikaku certainly knew about the Elite Plan, and Kakashi, the Hokage, discussed the specific implementation process with him.

"Can I lose the election?"

When he heard that he had failed to choose this option, Nara Shikamaru's eyes flashed.

Nara Shikaku knew his own children very well. He smiled strangely and said: "Shikamaru, I know what you are thinking, but the person who is presiding over the selection is Yusuke-sama. Are you sure you want to do something?"

"Ah this..."

Nara Shikamaru was stunned when he heard this.

"Yusuke-sama is so busy that he wants to personally preside over the selection? He didn't..."

Is he all right?

Before he could finish the five words, Nara Shikamaru saw his father's stern eyes and stopped abruptly.

"You also said that Mr. Yusuke is so busy, so you should know how important this elite plan is. I can't control you if you want to cheat, but if Mr. Yusuke sees through it and wants to punish you, I can't I can’t control it.”

Nara Shikaku can be said to only play with reality.

Nara Shikamaru couldn't help but sigh when he heard his father say this.

This is really full of "fatherly love".

"I know, I will be honest."

Seeing Nara Shikamaru compromise, Nara Shikaku smiled and patted him on the shoulder.

"There's no need for this, this is for Konoha's sake."

He knew that the person his children feared the most was Yusuke-sama, and Shikamaru would never dare to be clever in front of Yusuke-sama.

"Dad, why are you suddenly launching this elite plan? Are there still enemies?"

Even if he is as smart as Nara Shikamaru, he still cannot understand the meaning of this elite plan when the information is restricted.

Externally, Konoha has a peerless killer like Uchiha Yusuke, and no one dares to challenge him.

Internally, Konoha is now united and thriving.

Nara Shikamaru couldn't figure out the use of this elite plan for a moment. After cultivating the so-called elites, what would they do?

Nara Shikaku was not surprised at all that Nara Shikamaru would ask this question.

"You will know about this sooner or later, so I will tell you in advance."

It was not a secret matter in the first place. Nara Shikaku estimated that it would not be long before Uchiha Yusuke explained the purpose of the elite plan to the successful candidates, so now it was not forbidden for him to inform Shikamaru.

"The purpose of the elite program is not only to cultivate shadow-level warriors, but also a vital part of the 'Tree' program."

"'Tree' plan?"

Before the elite plan could be understood, another tree plan popped up, and Nara Shikamaru was really a little confused.

"Compare Konoha to a tree. If a tree wants to grow upward, it needs to spread out its branches and leaves to absorb more sunlight. In addition to the main trunk of Konoha, it also needs strong branches.

The purpose of the Elite Project is to cultivate branches that are strong enough.

The cultivated branches will carry the will of Konoha and spread this will to all parts of the world. "

"All over the world? Could it be..."

Nara Shikamaru couldn't help but gasped when he heard this.

He thought of a conjecture that made him breathe heavily.

Nara Shikaku smiled and looked at Nara Shikamaru.

"Yes, it's just as you thought. Mr. Yusuke, he was already planning it a year ago. If it hadn't disappeared for such a long time, this elite plan should have been launched half a year ago."

Hearing Nara Shikaku's sigh, Nara Shikamaru felt his scalp numb.

It's so troublesome, really troublesome.

Participating in any elite plan had already caused him trouble. Now that he heard about the tree plan, Nara Shikamaru felt that if he really participated in it, he might not have an easy life in his life.

"Dad, can I regret it?"

Nara Shikamaru asked tentatively.

Nara Shikaku rolled his eyes at Nara Shikamaru speechlessly: "You have to have the courage to tell Yusuke-sama yourself. You handed in the registration form yourself."

Nara Shikamaru heard this and let out a long sigh.

"What a...misstep."

At this moment, Uchiha House.

"It's really disturbing."

Kushina bowed sheepishly and apologized.

"Really, you are too outspoken, Kushina."

Uchiha Mikoto grabbed Kushina's hand affectionately and walked inside.

Although Kushina returned and Naruto moved out to live with Kushina, from the time she moved out to live, Kushina could count the number of times she fired on both hands. Most of the time, she came to Uchiha House. Eat rice.

"Brother, I heard that the elite plan has been launched?"

At the dinner table, Uchiha Fugaku mentioned this matter.

"Well, tomorrow I will personally select a group of people, and the selected people will receive the same training as Naruto and Sasuke."

"Teacher, do you mean that Sasuke and I will have more training partners?"

Naruto showed great interest in this.

"If nothing else happens, it should be. The two children of the Nara family and the Akimichi family have already signed up. I am very optimistic about them."

"It's Shikamaru and Choji, right? If it's those two, it will be fine!"

The only people who were familiar with Naruto were Nara Shikamaru and Akimichi Choji.

"Oh, I think so too."

Uchiha Yusuke smiled lightly.

"By the way, Fugaku, how did things go today?"

"According to Kakashi's instructions, corresponding people have been sent to escort those 'seeds' to various places. We are just waiting for them to produce results."

Hearing his eldest brother's question, Uchiha Fugaku quickly answered.

"That's good, let's eat."

Uchiha Yusuke gave the order, and everyone stopped talking and started eating.
