Traveling through the Naruto world to become the God King

Chapter 9 The Regenerative Power of Leaves

I emphasize again, Danzo, Chiba is now under the control of the Anbu, you just need to do your assigned job well! It is not your turn to interfere in other matters!"

Danzo snorted coldly, but still wanted to argue: "But this time..."

The Third Hokage interrupted him and said in a deep voice: "I am the Hokage of Konoha Village, I will be responsible to the end!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the word "Hokage" was like a heavy hammer hitting Danzo's heart, making him feel under so much pressure that he could hardly breathe.

Danzo was furious but didn't dare to lash out. He clenched his fists for a moment before gradually loosening them. He responded with gritted teeth: "Humph, then I'll wait and see how you take responsibility! We'll see!"

After saying that, Danzo left angrily on his crutches, and happened to run into the oncoming medical ninja.

The medical ninja was frightened by Danzo's angry look and asked in panic, "Um... Danzo-sama, he...?"

"He's fine, are you okay!?"

The Third Hokage breathed a sigh of relief. It was not convenient to say more about Chiba at the moment since the person involved had not yet woken up.

"It's about Uchiha Chiba. He has recovered--"

"Oh, that's good...what!?"

The Third Hokage was about to answer when he immediately realized that something was wrong.

"He has recovered!? But didn't you say before that it would take at least a month to recover..."

The medical ninja was equally confused and explained, "Originally, that was true, but Chiba's body is very special. His cells divide abnormally, allowing the wound to regenerate itself."

"Does this mean he's okay now?!"

The Third Hokage questioned and the medical ninja nodded in confirmation.

"Yes, but..."

He hesitated, looking a little embarrassed. The Third Hokage frowned and urged: "If you have any questions, just ask!"

"It's a problem with his cells. Frankly speaking, it's very strange. Although the abnormal division makes the wound heal faster than normal, this is most likely a disease!"

"disease!?"

The Third Hokage raised an eyebrow.

"That's right. To be more precise, with the current level of technology, we are still unable to treat this disease!"

Hearing this, the Third Hokage was shocked: "You mean..."

"I've never seen this kind of disease before, which means there's no cure for it. If the cells are allowed to continue dividing like this, his condition will be—"

He didn't finish his words, but the Third Hokage already knew what he meant.

"Then there is no other way? No matter what the cost!?"

The medical ninja shook his head to indicate that he had no idea what to do, but suddenly his eyes lit up, and he spoke as if he remembered something: "Oh, maybe Princess Tsunade will have a way... maybe she can cure his illness!"

The pupils of the Third Hokage shrank suddenly, and then a look of anticipation flashed across his face: "Really? Got it, I'll arrange for Chiba to come over and meet you right away, right away--"

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, the medical ninja immediately left the scene. Watching his back disappear from sight, the Third Hokage couldn't help but sigh: "I hope everything goes well..."

"Third-generation master!? You're looking for me?"

There was a knock on the door, and Chiba called out respectfully. Sandai stood by the window with his back to Chiba, and responded calmly: "Come in... Chiba."

"What's the matter? Sandaime-sama!"

It was only when Chiba walked into the room that Sandai turned around as usual and looked at him with a kind smile.

"You recovered so quickly and look so refreshed. It seems my previous worries were unnecessary!"

"Thank you for your concern, Third Generation Master!"

"Chiba, what do you think about this mission to the Hidden Mist Village?"

"Does the Third Master think that my decision was inappropriate?"

Chiba looked at the third generation and asked back in a calm tone.

"Do you think you did it right?"

The third generation asked back.

Qianye smiled and replied: "If I say it's appropriate, you will definitely be dissatisfied with me, right!?"

The third generation did not say anything, obviously agreeing with Chiba's opinion.

“But I think I did a pretty good job!”

Chiba's answer surprised Sandai. He thought that after talking to him, he would reflect on his behavior, but he didn't expect him to say such words.

"Oh? On what basis?!"

"Before that, how much do you know about the Fourth Mizukage Yagura and Mei Terumi?"

Hearing this, Sandai narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling that this matter might not be as simple as he originally thought. He originally thought that the reason for Qianye's misjudgment was lack of experience, but now it seems that there seems to be some hidden inside story!

"If it's convenient, could you tell me in detail?"

"certainly--"

Chiba then told the Sandai about the process of the mission, including the fact that Mei Terumi killed Yagura and that he had earlier realized that Yagura might be controlled by others.

"The Fourth Mizukage is being manipulated! Is this information reliable?!"

After listening to Chiba's words, the Third Hokage felt that the amount of information was too much. As the Mizukage, he was actually being controlled by someone else, and that person was a Jinchūriki who could perfectly control the tailed beasts.

"I can basically confirm it, but the source of the information...I can't reveal it!"

It was naturally impossible for Chiba to tell Sandai that he knew this information from his previous life. This was too ridiculous.

"I see. If that's the case, I can understand why you made such a judgment. But... it still seems too hasty!"

The third generation gave his own opinion, because he felt that whether it was about Yagura being manipulated or believing in Mei Terumi's statement, these were too bizarre. Although Chiba's reasons were sufficient, in the eyes of him, the Hokage of Konoha, Chiba's judgment still seemed too casual and irresponsible.

"Okay, let's put this aside for now. I came to you to talk about something else!"

As he spoke, Sandai pulled out a letter from his desk and handed it to Chiba.

"Now, I have a task for you."

"Task?"

Chiba asked back.

"That's right, but strictly speaking, it can't be considered a complete mission because it's related to you."

Chiba was a little confused and didn't quite understand what the third generation was talking about.

"How much do you know about the Sannin of Konoha?"

"Jiraiya, Orochimaru, and Princess Tsunade."

"This time your mission is to find Princess Tsunade and hand this letter to her personally. She will teach you how to learn ninjutsu."

Hearing this, Qianye's eyes shrank slightly.

Then his heart sank, it was obvious that there was indeed something wrong with his body. Using that thing called an atomic bomb had brought trouble after all.

Ever since he was seriously injured and recovered with just one night's sleep, he felt that something was wrong, but the abnormal cell division made him feel that this was not a bad thing.

It seems that this time he is looking for Tsunade not just to let her teach him ninjutsu. It is probably because of his own physical problems that Konoha Village is currently unable to solve, and he needs to use Princess Tsunade's medical ninjutsu.

It is likely that the atomic bomb explosion caused his cells to become cancerous, which would explain the abnormal cell division.

However, Chiba, who had some knowledge of medical treatment, understood that even if the cell division was abnormal, it would be impossible to recover from a serious injury overnight, let alone achieve something beyond common sense such as regeneration.

The only explanation is that his chakra protective function intervened.

After thinking about this, Chiba had a deeper understanding of his own chakra.

"It turned out to be Princess Tsunade! Could it be that she was attracted by the fact that I have the same supernatural power as her?"

Since the Third Hokage gave such a reason, Chiba had no reason not to cooperate. Besides, he might need Tsunade's help to practice the Sage Mode in the future.

"I understand, Master Sandaime - I will definitely complete this task!"

"Well, but you'd better be careful not to reveal your identity. Although people outside don't know what you look like, the name Uchiha Chiba is already known to everyone."

The news that the seven-year-old Uchiha genius defeated the Fourth Mizukage has become known throughout the streets.

"Okay, got it, I'll keep an eye on it!"

"Your departure time is set for three days from now. During this time, you should go home and prepare yourself and have a good rest!"

After receiving the mission, Chiba bid farewell to the Third Generation and left.

He did not go back to the hospital, but returned to his familiar cabin.

As for the envelope, Chiba didn't know what was written inside. There was a seal on the envelope, and it was probably only Tsunade who could open it.

He could roughly guess the specific content, which was nothing more than a question about his physical condition.

Although others are not aware of it, these cancerous cells were exactly the focus of Chiba's previous research.

As soon as he returned to the cabin, Chiba saw Uchiha Izumi sitting alone on the steps in front of the cabin.

Seeing Qianye coming back, she immediately smiled with surprise and ran over to greet him.

"Brother Chiba, you're back!"

Qianye gently touched Xiaoquan's head and said with a smile: "Yes, Xiaoquan, brother, I'm back! Why are you here? Isn't there class at the Ninja School today?"

"Humph, you idiot Chiba-kun, have you forgotten that you can use your shadow clone to go to class?"

"Haha, I really forgot about that!"

Chiba pinched his nose with a smile. After going through so much, looking back now, it seemed like his life in the ninja school was a thing of the past.

"Alright, Brother Qianye, stop talking and lie down and have a good rest!"

"What are you talking about, Koizumi, I'm fine now!"

"Stop talking about this, Brother Qianye, don't I know what's going on with you? I told you to have a good rest, but you're still running around!"

Koizumi sat on the steps, crossed his legs, and then rested Chiba's head on his thighs.

Qianye was stunned for a moment, then felt a soft touch on his back and smelled a hint of fragrance.

I thought, this is what is called a knee pillow!

"so comfortable!"

"Come on, Koizumi... Today, Chiba will teach you two fire-style ninjutsu!"

After resting for a while, Qianye stretched and stood up.

"No, Brother Qianye, you should sleep a little longer. Didn't you say you wanted to have a good rest?"

Koizumi patted his thigh and motioned Chiba to continue lying down.

"That's enough, I've been lying there for too long!"

"Brother Chiba, do you not like Koizumi anymore? Is it because of that girl named Xi Yan——"

Hearing this, Qianye was shocked.

"What nonsense are you talking about! Koizumi is still Koizumi, and that won't change. I love you the most!"

Chiba hurriedly stroked Koizumi's head and sighed in his heart: This child is only seven years old, what a mess he thinks about every day!

"Really? Then I want a hug from Brother Chiba!"

As he said this, Koizumi opened his arms and closed his eyes, as if waiting for a hug.

"Okay! I'll hug you, but don't let me have any random thoughts from now on!"

Chiba smiled, then walked up and hugged Koizumi tightly in his arms.

"Well, I will listen to Brother Qianye, so don't take such dangerous missions in the future, okay?"

"Well, okay, I promise you!"

Although Qianye agreed readily, he knew in his heart that it was almost impossible to do so. If he wanted to stand among the top, it would be impossible without the experience of life and death.

"So, Chiba-kun, which ninjutsu are you going to teach me?"
