Starting from Naruto: The Invincible Road of the Slacking Girl

Chapter 23 The goal you have been looking for for so long is now right before your eyes.

Yu Xi was sitting alone in the most remote and quiet place in the Hidden Mist Village, as if isolated from the world, just quietly "fishing" and taking a nap.

She is not running away from anything, but looking for her own peace and comfort.

At this moment, the sunlight seemed to be attracted by her tranquility, and it gently fell on her petite body through layers of mist.

The golden light, like a gift from God, covered her with a dazzling golden gauze, making her look more gentle and mysterious in the silence.

Yu Xi seemed to have forgotten the passage of time and the passing of years. She immersed herself wholeheartedly in this hard-earned tranquility.

It seems as if you have become one with the world, feeling the breath and pulse of nature.

However, the good times did not last long, and this precious peace would eventually be ruthlessly shattered.

As time passed, Yuxi's eyelids gradually became extremely heavy, as if a heavy burden was pressing on her body, making it difficult for her to open her eyes.

Then, her little head involuntarily drooped down little by little.

Finally, the sleepiness came over us like a tidal wave, unstoppable.

Yu Xi was totally unable to resist and could only close her eyes helplessly, falling into the abyss of a beautiful and sweet dream.

At this moment, the ninjas of the Hidden Mist Village were filled with anxiety and uneasiness.

This is not groundless nor created out of thin air, but rather stems from the fact that they are shouldering an important mission and are closely monitoring a target.

The importance of this goal is self-evident. It concerns the safety of the entire Mist Village and the honor and mission of every ninja.

However, something incredible happened. The target who was under close surveillance disappeared without a trace, just like smoke!

This sudden change caught the Kirigakure ninjas off guard. The anxiety and uneasiness in their hearts burned like a ignited flame.

The Kirigakure ninjas were extremely anxious. They searched everywhere, but every effort ended in failure.

They searched every corner and checked every possible hiding place, but the target seemed to have evaporated into thin air, disappearing without a trace.

Their hearts grew heavier, and the expressions on their faces became more solemn.

Time passed by minute by minute, and they could only watch helplessly as time slipped away quietly.

"What on earth happened? Why did the target suddenly disappear?" Finally, a Kirigakure ninja could no longer suppress his inner doubts and blurted out.

"We have searched the entire area thoroughly but still cannot find any clues as to her whereabouts."

Another Kirigakure ninja also frowned and echoed worriedly.

"Could it be that she was aware of our presence and deliberately hid herself?" Someone made a bold hypothesis.

"That's impossible! We are so far away from where she fought.

"It stands to reason that she would never be able to detect our movements."

Immediately, some companions raised objections and tried to overturn this speculation.

Just as everyone was arguing, an experienced old Mist Ninja stood up.

His eyes were sharp as torches, and he said slowly:

"Perhaps, our opponent used some special ninjutsu or gadgets to hide his body and escape our surveillance."

Hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.

"In any case, we can't just sit there and wait for death."

The old ninja continued in a firm tone:

“We must find her as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.”

So, those Kirigakure ninjas started to move again like ghosts.

They dispersed quickly and silently, as if blending into the thick fog.

Every Kirigakure ninja was concentrating, their eyes as sharp as a hawk, not missing any suspicious trace.

The kunai in his hand flashed with cold light, ready to deal with any enemy that might appear at any time.

In this tense atmosphere, time passed by minute by minute, but no one dared to relax at all.

Because they know very well that any slight negligence may allow the target to escape and all previous efforts will be wasted.

However, everything became blurry under the thick fog.

The obstructed vision and affected hearing made the search work extremely difficult.

In this tense atmosphere, Yuxi was still immersed in a sweet dream, unaware of what was happening outside.

The first Mizukage Byakuren sat quietly in the Hidden Mist Village, staring into the distance.

I prayed silently in my heart that the expected news would come as soon as possible.

Time passed by minute by minute, but the news still did not arrive.

Anxiety was creeping up on him, but he knew it would do no good to stress himself out.

So I decided to get up and go out for a walk to relax.

Strolling in the Hidden Mist Village, the First Mizukage Byakuren felt the coolness brought by the breeze on his face, trying to free his mind from waiting.

Just as the first Mizukage Bailian was immersed in this beautiful scenery, suddenly a figure caught his attention.

When I got closer, I saw that it was a strange little girl lying on the grass by the lake and sleeping soundly.

The sunlight shone on her, as if covering her with a layer of golden glow.

The first Mizukage Bailian couldn't help but smile when he saw Yuxi sleeping so soundly.

He walked gently to her side, squatted down, and looked at her face carefully.

There is still a hint of childishness on Yuxi's face, and her innocent and lovely appearance makes people feel pity for her.

He decided not to disturb her sweet dream.

At this time, a Kirigakure ninja hurried over and reported the progress of the search to Bailian.

"Reporting to Lord Mizukage, we still haven't found any trace of the target." The ninja said respectfully.

The First Mizukage, Byakuren, frowned slightly, thought for a moment and said:

"Expand the search area and don't miss any corner."

"Yes!" The Kirigakure ninja took the order and left.

The first Mizukage, Byakuren, could never have imagined that the person or thing he had been looking for with so much difficulty was so far away and yet so close.

Yu Xi didn't know how long she had slept, she just felt as if she was in a long and endless dream.

Finally, she woke up slowly, yawned lazily, and then stretched her arms and waist comfortably.

"You finally woke up, little girl. It seems that you are not from our Kirigakure Village!"

At this moment, a deep and hoarse voice suddenly came from the side.

Upon hearing this, Yu Xi turned around quickly and her eyes fell on the weathered old man.

His hair was waist-length and draped over his shoulders in a messy manner, and the beard on his face was untidy, as if he had experienced countless storms.

However, what caught people's attention most was his empty left eye socket, which had lost its luster and was left with only deep darkness.

Obviously, this eye has lost its light and fallen into darkness forever.

What’s even more frightening is that there is a long, hideous scar across his face.

It was as if it was cut by a sharp blade, deeply engraved on the skin.

And when he opened his mouth, he revealed several sharp teeth, which was even more chilling.

This old man is the first Mizukage - Bai Lian

He stood on the misty shore, his face looked weathered, but his eyes revealed a sharp light.

Although the robe he wore was old, it still revealed an unparalleled majesty.

"I am indeed not from the Hidden Mist Village, who are you?" Yu Xi couldn't help but say

"I am the village chief here, and the first Mizukage."

It is rumored that the first Mizukage's water escape technique is very powerful. However, in front of Yu Xi, these seem pale and powerless.

Yu Xi's eyes were full of provocation, as if Bai Lian's reputation was just a joke in her eyes.

"Why are you here?" The voice of the first generation of Mizukage Bai Lian was low and hoarse.

"Why should I tell you? Just because you are the Mizukage?" Yu Xi said with disdain, his eyes revealing contempt and provocation for the first Mizukage Byakuren.

The two men confronted each other, and the air was filled with tension, as if a thrilling battle would break out at any time.
