Naruto: Sasuke loves to visit forums

"Alright. For matters like this, I always listen to Sasuke's own opinion."

Jiraiya waved his hand, smiled to himself and said:

"Based on my understanding of him, he probably won't agree to such a 'strange' request."

Although, this is clearly a good thing.

But that boy, after all, is not like me, who knows how to appreciate the romantic world.

Considering Nara Shikamaru's mood, Jiraiya did not actually say the above words.

Hearing this, Shikamaru breathed a sigh of relief. In his ear, he only heard Jiraiya continue to say:

"I asked you to come here because, first of all, I felt that, given the special relationship between you and Temari, you should indeed understand this situation."

Hearing this, Nara Shikamaru, whose expression had originally eased a little, blushed again.

"Secondly, as you have analyzed, no matter how you put it, this is an act of surrender that is beneficial to Konoha.

"We really can't ignore the requests and goodwill of our allies and waste this opportunity."

Having said that, Jiraiya slowly put away his smile and said seriously:

"As for what should be done specifically, I hope you can use your wisdom to help me come up with a good idea that has the best of both worlds."

"Yes!"

Nara Shikamaru immediately put his feet together and responded loudly to the Hokage's order.

Since stepping into the Hokage's office, in just over ten minutes, Nara Shikamaru has experienced great ups and downs in his emotions. It was really too exciting.

On this side, Jiraiya continued to comfort him:

"I say, Shikamaru. Don't have any distracting thoughts.

"We all have high expectations of you."

"I see."

Nara Shikamaru lowered his head and answered respectfully.

"No, you don't understand."

Jiraiya shook his head, his face calm, and said:

"Right now, Uchiha Sasuke is strong enough to be the Kage of a village. The Sunagakure ninjas who watched Sasuke fight Scorpion from a close distance knew this very well.

“The invitation from Sunagakure seems to be full of sincerity, but the purpose behind it is for his own continuation and rule.

"It is clearly written in the letter that they want Sasuke to join his Sunagakure, not for him to lead the Sunagakure into our Konoha.

"Do you understand the difference here?"

Jiraiya stared at Nara Shikamaru in front of him with burning eyes.

He no longer looked like the gossipy old man before, and with the Hokage robe, he looked like the lord of the strongest ninja village and the supreme ruler.

"But."

Shikamaru wanted to say something, but after changing his mind, he swallowed the words and nodded silently.

Seeing Shikamaru's reaction, Jiraiya continued:

"You should be very clear about the current situation of the Sand Village.

"In the face of a national life-and-death issue like this, the will of an individual can be almost ignored.

"Regarding Temari's signature, don't blame her, and don't let your emotions cloud your subsequent judgment."

"You are too kind, Hokage."

After hearing Jiraiya's advice, Nara Shikamaru immediately raised his head, smiled self-deprecatingly, and said to himself:

"How can I blame her?"

However, to Jiraiya, that smile seemed extremely bitter.

"I still believe it. Temari is a very important 'friend' to Konoha."

Jiraiya stared at Shikamaru closely, emphasizing the word "friend" deliberately.

Shikamaru knew what the Hokage meant.

It's nothing more than paying attention to Temari's current ecological status and the foundation of friendship she had built with Konoha during her time as a hostage in Nara Prefecture.

But at this point, Shikamaru didn't feel like saying anything more.

He just nodded silently and left.

“In two days, this conference will be over.

"Is the enemy attack that Sasuke-sensei talked about reliable?"

The Land of Fire, the Fire Temple, the Water and Land Dojo, and the outskirts of the crowd.

Under the scorching sun, Sarutobi Konohamaru was standing bored at the edge of the crowd. He quietly approached Jin Dafeng and complained in a low voice.

"Keep the information confidential."

Hearing Konohamaru's complaints, Jin Dafeng looked nervous and obviously didn't want to talk more.

Behind them, a lively and solemn atmosphere permeated every inch of the air.

Believers came from all directions, gathering like a tide.

At this moment, regardless of gender, age or status, everyone's face was filled with piety and awe for the Buddha.

In the center of the dojo, smoke rose from the incense burner, curling upwards.

Amid the smoke, the solemn Buddha statue in the temple looks down at the world.

His lips were slightly pursed, just as he had been for the past hundred years, without uttering a word.

The ninja monks of the Fire Temple were seen holding magical instruments and moving slowly according to specific positions and patterns.

Some were gently shaking their instruments, producing clear and pleasant sounds;

Some put their hands together and pray devoutly;

Some of them lowered their heads and eyes, reciting the scriptures with full concentration.

The believers were crowded but orderly.

People were shoulder to shoulder, feet to feet, but in this crowd there was no noise or bustle, only the low sound of chanting and the occasional sound of wooden fish knocking.

These sounds interweave to form a special harmony.

At this time, Uchiha Sasuke was walking through the crowd and once again came to an apprentice ninja monk of the same age.

Before Sasuke could speak, the monk frowned and said with annoyance:

"why is it you again?

"Are Konoha's ninjas so idle all day long?"

As he was an apprentice ninja monk, although he wore the same blue and white monk robe, he still had long gray hair.

He had a handsome face and a rebellious temperament.

His right hand was wrapped in bandages and was now hidden in the wide sleeves.

On this side, hearing his bad attitude, Uchiha Sasuke suppressed his inner dissatisfaction and said patiently:

"Anyway, if your father comes to see you."

"How many times have I told you! My father is dead!

"If you're going to tell me any more weird stories like that, save your energy!"

The young ninja monk interrupted Uchiha Sasuke and said with an impatient look on his face.

This person is the original character that netizens asked Uchiha Sasuke to pay attention to and find - Kong.

Over the past few days, the Fire Temple's abbot Di Lu has been warm, polite, humble and respectful towards Uchiha Sasuke, but he just refuses to give up the holding of the Obon Festival.

After being rejected several times, seeing that the ceremony was held as scheduled and believers flocked into the temple like a tide, Sasuke had no choice but to give up insisting.

In fact, this is nothing more than a difference in risk assessment.

In Sasuke's opinion, human life is the most important. When it comes to the lives of many civilian believers, even if there is only a slight probability, no risk should be taken.

Especially, taking other people's lives to achieve one's own goals.

But Di Lu, as the head of the Fire Temple, had to make some realistic considerations considering that the Obon Festival was directly related to the fiscal budget for next year.

In the following days, Uchiha Sasuke also remembered the "side quest" assigned to him by netizens, and asked Di Lu about some things about "Sora".

Afterwards, Di Lu frankly told Sasuke that there was indeed such a ninja monk in the Fire Temple.

At this time, he was serving as an apprentice ninja monk in the temple.

In addition, Di Lu also mentioned that this child was the descendant of an old friend of his who had passed away.

"Is there really such a person? That would be troublesome."

//

The words of the senior netizens are still fresh in my mind.

After seeing Kong in person for the first time, Sasuke once again returned to his previous post and responded to the relevant situation under the reply from netizen "老哟烤馍".

Immediately afterwards, a system prompt popped up.

[Congratulations on completing the suggestion - in the Fire Temple, confirm the existence of the trainee ninja monk 'Kong'. Obtained the F-level scroll.]

With Uchiha Sasuke's skillful operation, another new prompt popped up as the scroll unfolded.

Although, Sasuke didn't have high expectations for the reward of the F-level scroll.

However, the content of this reward still surprised Sasuke.

[You opened the F-level scroll. Congratulations on unlocking some system permissions: Ask for advice]

Continuing to check, I saw a line of small words floating above the gray-white scroll, which read:

[The will and dominance to change your destiny should always be in your own hands. ]

[Since you have deviated from the original timeline by 40%, you are now given new system permissions. During the specific process of offering suggestions, you can ask two additional questions based on the suggestions of forum users.]

【Change the fate of darkness and start a new life. I hope you will continue to work hard to achieve perfection. 】

To be honest, these words did seem a bit incomprehensible to Uchiha Sasuke.

What "timeline", what "dark destiny", what "realm of goodness", I have no idea what they are talking about.

However, Sasuke could understand the specific instructions in the second line of small print very clearly.

Judging from the meaning, it should be said that during the process of netizens and seniors offering suggestions, if there is any content that you don’t understand, you can finally ask them directly!

In this way, the efficiency and pertinence of obtaining intelligence through the forum system will be greatly improved.

Sasuke vaguely felt that this system did not want to directly and forcefully interfere with his destiny by interfering with intelligence.

But in terms of intelligence, there is actually not that much desire to restrict it.

On the other hand, regarding the trainee ninja monk "Kong", after receiving a reply from Uchiha Sasuke, netizens also gave new information and specific suggestions.

//

Old John Laomo: "This kid is the leader of the radical group of the Twelve Guardians of the Ninja, and the son of Kazuma.

"During the Nine-Tails' attack on Konoha, his own father transplanted a portion of the Nine-Tails' remaining chakra into his body, making him the Nine-Tails' imitation Jinchūriki.

“If the existence of emptiness is true, then the incident with the horse must also be true.

“The so-called radicals are those who are only loyal to the Fire Country Daimyo and believe that the Hokage is unnecessary.

"Specifically, Kazuma's goal is to assassinate the Hokage and destroy Konoha at the same time, completely obliterating the basis of the Hokage's existence."

After reading this, Uchiha Sasuke thought for a long time and carefully asked his first question:

"He wants to destroy Konoha. So, what is this Kazuma's trump card, or killer weapon?"

Soon, netizens’ replies were posted again.

Old John Laomo: "That's Kong. It's very simple. This guy's goal is to use his son's life as a price to release this pseudo-jinchuriki and start another Nine-Tails Rebellion in Konoha."

After seeing the reply from the senior netizen, Uchiha Sasuke couldn't help but want to laugh.

Imitation Jinchūriki?

The real Nine-Tailed Fox is not even afraid of it, so why would he care about a fake one?

Seeing the threat level of the incident, which was completely within his range, Uchiha Sasuke immediately readjusted his mood -

It's not that I take the matter lightly, but I no longer have any excessive worries about it.

At the same time, I couldn't help but sigh silently in my heart.

Why are there so many bastards in the ninja world who use the lives of their loved ones as tools and bargaining chips?

Thinking of this, Sasuke couldn't help but feel a little more sympathy for the young man he had only met once.

After a pause, thinking that he still had a second chance to ask, Uchiha Sasuke thought about it carefully again.

He frowned and asked cautiously:

"So, what does the Fire Country Daimyo think of Kazuma's actions?"

However, there are different opinions among netizens and seniors on this issue.

The vast majority believed that the Fire Country Daimyo did not support this action. According to their understanding, when the incident happened, the Daimyo had expressed clear opposition to Kazuma's behavior by avoiding him.

The whole thing was completely the independent behavior of the subordinate military.

However, there are a small number of senior netizens who believe that this matter was actually carried out with the tacit permission of the daimyo.

Anyway, through the quarrels among netizens and predecessors.

The Fire Country Daimyo, that originally distant and vague face.

At this moment, for the first time, it finally became gradually concrete in Uchiha Sasuke's mind.

In addition, regarding the trainee ninja monk "Kong" himself, netizens and seniors also gave their final suggestions, which are:

[You receive a new suggestion: Kill Kong while the chaos is going on, or kill Kong by borrowing someone else's knife and let him die early in this turmoil. If you accept and complete this suggestion, you will get an F-level scroll.]

[You have received a new suggestion: Tell Sora the whole truth, persuade him through words, and let him return to Konoha and take care of him. Accept and complete this suggestion to get an E-level scroll.]

[You have received a new suggestion: arrange for air surveillance, wait and see, wait for the horse to be caught, and eliminate the trouble forever. Accept and complete this suggestion to obtain an E-level scroll.]

To be honest, Uchiha Sasuke didn't care about these E-level rewards, nor was he really worried about the so-called "Wama" crisis.

The reason why he was willing to waste his breath on this was simply because he had some sympathy and pity for the young man.

//

"Since you are so shameless.

"Then just pretend I didn't say anything."

Amid the noisy crowd, Uchiha Sasuke's gaze grew colder, and he was unwilling to say anything more to Kong.
