Konoha: The Legend of Chiba

Ino?

No!

This... is this, punched out with fists?

So... so, this is the training ground?

Hearing the sudden excited voice of Ino Yamanaka upstairs, Nara Shikamaru glanced up subconsciously, but soon, his eyes suddenly returned to the scene in front of him, his face was slightly stiff.

At this moment, in front of his eyes, is an ordinary forest and a forest clearing.

Just, ordinary woods and an open space behind this house.

Nothing out of the ordinary.

Even, apart from the open space and the opposite woods behind the house, there is nothing shocking to look at.

Apart from three wooden stakes, there was nothing on this rather large open space.

However, this seemingly innocuous scene surprised Nara Shikamaru so much that even Yamanaka Ino's excited voice was ignored.

In other words, compared to Ino Yamanaka's words of obvious discovery, he was more concerned about the open space in front of him.

Although... It's been a few years, but this is indeed punched out!

These are fist marks!

On the stakes are all fist marks!

But at this time, his eyes were fixed on the three wooden stakes.

In his line of sight, he could clearly see the potholes and dents on two of the three wooden stakes. Slight fungi have grown, and the leftmost wooden stake has been broken, and half of it is lying on the side, and half of it is already decayed. However, Nara Shikamaru can still see that the wooden stake is full of potholes. It was punched by people.

That's right, these three wooden stakes are for people to practice.

Practicing gymnastics!

As for the dense fist marks on it, Nara Shikamaru can't imagine what kind of training this person has undergone to smash this thick wooden pile into such a shape. Moreover, this wooden pile should be made of the same wood material as this cabin. It is the same, and the material used for this Japanese-style log cabin should be a kind of wood near Muye Village, which is very hard and suitable for making houses. The houses built are durable. It can be seen that this wooden pile has How sturdy.

Moreover, the strongest ninja passed away more than ten years ago and was engraved on the memorial tablet. Then, even if the three wooden stakes in front of you were erected the day before the strongest ninja passed away, it would still be ten years away from now. For several years, these wooden posts have been exposed to the wind, rain, and sun outside. Even though moss and fungus have grown on them, they look green, and the fist marks can still be clearly seen, which shows how good the material of this wood is.

It is also conceivable how hard the person training with this wooden stake is, and even a little crazy.

This densely packed fist mark was definitely not achieved in a day.

This is necessary day after day, year after year, and a lot of physical training every day to create such a scene.

This is... what kind of cultivation madman!

At this moment, Nara Shikamaru, who thought about his daily training plan, couldn't help but have such a thought in his heart.

At this moment, Nara Shikamaru's hands felt aching just thinking of the hundreds of thousands of fists pounding on this wooden stake day after day, which made it possible to beat this wooden stake like this.

He could even imagine the blood oozing from the bandages that protected his hands during training.

Before he knew it, a chill ran down his spine.

What kind of perseverance and perseverance, as well as the belief in becoming stronger, can achieve such a level!

Just thinking about it makes Nara Shikamaru's scalp tingle.

And if all these trainings are rewarded, then this person must be terrifyingly strong.

It's not just the strength of the ninja power, but also the perseverance and perseverance, as well as the powerful mind behind this perseverance and perseverance, are also terrifyingly strong.

This is……

The strongest ninja?

At the same time, following this thought, Nara Shikamaru stood on the spot in a daze.

He has determined that these three stakes must be the strongest ninja his teacher mentioned.

Moreover, he finally understood why his teacher judged that the strongest person was a cultivation madman and a cultivation idiot.

You can tell just by looking at the stake.

Not to mention the vacant land, there are still some pits that haven't been smoothed over the years. Although they are not dense, Nara Shikamaru believes that more than ten years ago, this vacant land was probably full of potholes, just like the wooden pile. There are dense fist marks on it.

There may even be some red seeping in these pits.

"Shikamaru! Shikamaru! Come here! Come here!"

And at this time, the voice urging him to go upstairs sounded again, but this time, it was not Ino Yamanaka who shouted, but Choji Akimichi.

what did they find

But Choji Akimichi's decibels clearly surpassed that of Ino Yamanaka by several levels, Nara Shikamaru shrugged his shoulders, but was almost taken aback.

Obviously, Yamanaka Ino's words just now did not call him up, but they attracted Akimichi Choji.

At this moment, Choji Akimichi saw what Ino Yamanaka saw, and couldn't help calling him up.

Go up and see!

It should be something incredible!

And after shrugging his shoulders, Nara Shikamaru didn't waste time on the back door, closed the back door directly, turned around and went upstairs.

Nara Shikamaru picked up the stairs amidst the slow, thumping sound of going up the stairs.

"What's going on? So anxious."

And when he stepped onto the floor of the second floor, he who had already returned to his usual color spoke slowly.

"Shikamaru, look quickly! Look at the door!"

Seeing that Nara Shikamaru finally went upstairs, Yamanaka Ino, who had been looking back and forth on the second floor, as if confirming that he was right over and over again, hurriedly said.

By the way, he pulled Nara Shikamaru past him and made him stand in front of the two of them.

"Crack, click, click!"

"Crack, click, click!"

"Crack, click, click!"

At this time, Choji Akimichi had already started to swallow snacks faster, looking extremely nervous.

"What did you find..."

Being pulled to the forefront by Yamanaka Ino, Nara Shikamaru subconsciously spit out this lazy sentence before he could raise his head.

Then, halfway through the conversation, it came abruptly.

For a split second, Nara Shikamaru froze on the spot, his eyes slightly opened, and his gaze was fixed on his right side.

That is the innermost room on the second floor.

His pupils shrank suddenly, and his point of view immediately focused on the door number of that room.

"This... this is..."

Then, in surprise, he murmured.

"That's right! That's right!"

Seeing that Nara Shikamaru was shocked and speechless, Yamanaka Ino spoke as if you understood.

"Crack, click, click!"

"Crack, click, click!"

"Crack, click, click!"

At this time, while Qiudao Dingji swallowed at an accelerated speed, his eyes were also wide open, as if he had reached a critical moment.

"Then...then, the name of the strongest ninja..."

Hearing this sound, Nara Shikamaru finally calmed down quickly, after all, he is a person who is easy to calm down. Although there was still a bit of shock at this moment, Nara Shikamaru's tone was quite calm.

But his eyes still did not leave the door of the innermost room.

Did not leave that house number either.

On the door plate, there are two simple Chinese characters written.

Chiba!

...

"Sleeping... is he asleep? That Yiye, is he asleep? Xiaoying, check to see if he is asleep."

On the other side, Uzumaki Naruto, who had been slandering since Uchiha Sasuke left, flashed his eyes, suddenly seemed to have discovered something, turned his head quickly, and asked Haruno Sakura in a low voice.

"Fell asleep?"

Hearing this, Haruno Sakura was startled.

After Uchiha Sasuke left, they had been staring at this place for a while, and that Haneda Ichiyo was lying on the wicker chair basking in the sun without moving.

It looked like he was asleep.

"Well, it seems so."

Regarding this, Uzumaki Naruto nodded and said quite positively.

"It doesn't matter, just keep watching."

Hearing this, Haruno Sakura narrowed her eyes slightly, but she didn't feel any relaxation because the other party seemed to have fallen asleep.

After all, the person I was following, called Haneda Ichiyo, was able to play around with them without a trace, and he couldn't relax his vigilance even if he fell asleep or something.

"Why--?"

However, although she didn't plan to relax, her partner Uzumaki Naruto couldn't hold on any longer.

Originally, he was not interested in this matter at all, but now, this stalking seemed even more boring.

He didn't understand, what was suspicious about Yiye, he obviously invited himself to eat his favorite ramen, and even distributed char siu to himself, and also to Sakura, and the idiot Uchiha Sasuke.

He is obviously a very good person!

Why do you say that he is suspicious and that he has no good intentions!

He couldn't figure it out at all.

Although he believed that his two partners would not lie to him, he really couldn't figure it out.

So, at this time, apart from feeling bored, he also felt a little unclear. So, his partner might have made a fuss over a molehill.

"I said, Naruto!"

And at this time, hearing Naruto Uzumaki's perfunctory, Haruno Sakura's forehead immediately showed angry veins, and slowly raised her fist.

"This Haneda Ichiyo may not be suspicious."

But at this moment, a familiar voice rang above the heads of the two, preventing the punch from falling on Uzumaki Naruto.

"Sasuke?"

Hearing this sound, Haruno Sakura didn't care about beating Naruto anymore, and suddenly looked up.

I saw a handsome black-haired boy hanging upside down on the branch above their heads, with his head in the middle of the two of them. At this time, the handsome black-haired boy was looking at the person in the distance who seemed to be asleep while basking in the sun on the balcony. Haneda Kazuyo's expression was quite serious.

"What the hell did you do? Leave me and Sakura here, this surveillance was initiated by you, right?"

Seeing this handsome guy again, Uzumaki Naruto clearly showed extreme dissatisfaction on his face, and complained.

"I thought of some available clues, so I went to confirm it."

In this regard, Uchiha Sasuke paused for a moment, and said.

"This is a condolence item."

Then, he put down his hand, and a bag of steamed buns hung between the two of them from top to bottom.

Sure enough, it is a little bit reluctant...

Come here so fast.

And in his mind, such a thought flashed through.

After returning from that small road, he first went back to the Konoha Steamed Bun Shop to buy a bag of steamed buns, confirmed the appearance of the couple, and stayed in the hidden place for a while to confirm the After the couple stopped discussing about the strongest ninja Taki Chiba, they rushed back as quickly as possible.

Fortunately, the inn in Caoyin District was not very far from the gate of the village, so it didn't take him long to come back as quickly as possible.

It's just that after some stalking and rapid marching, he was a little out of breath after all, and he was still lacking in stamina after all.

Of course, this is just his own request for himself, and he still feels a little lacking in his own request.

Generally speaking, being able to take a short breath after such a movement is already a very rare endurance.

Worthy of the name of genius.

"Do you think these steamed buns can bribe me? Let me tell you, I will never forgive you!"

And these upside-down steamed buns immediately aroused even stronger dissatisfaction with Uzumaki Naruto, who blurted out the harsh words in his mouth.

Then, Uzumaki Naruto reached out to the steamed bun bag without hesitation.

Although he was very dissatisfied in his mouth and even became ruthless, his hands were very honest.

I am also very faithful to my hungry stomach.

He hasn't had a good meal since morning.

"Naruto……"

Seeing Naruto Uzumaki's incongruity, Haruno Sakura couldn't hold back any anger, and looked at him and said helplessly.

Yeah……

Didn't you have a good meal?

Did Sasuke see it?

Such a thought flashed through her mind.

"Sasuke, what did you find? Why do you say that this Haneda Ichiyo may not be suspicious?"

Seeing Naruto grabbing the mantou and starting to chew it, Sakura Haruno raised her head, looked at Sasuke Uchiha at the side, and said.

"We suspect him because his behavior and the first reaction of the people in the village who saw him are a bit unusual, aren't they?"

In this regard, Uchiha Sasuke did not answer directly, but just opened the mouth.

"That's right."

Hearing this, Haruno Sakura opened her mouth and said.

In addition to intuitively feeling that this Haneda Yiye is suspicious, the basis for her doubting this Haneda Yiye is these.

"I have found the reason why everyone in the village has an unusual first reaction to him."

In this regard, Uchiha Sasuke nodded and said.

"found it?"

"What is it?"

And hearing this sentence, not only Haruno Sakura, but even Uzumaki Naruto asked.

Although I don't believe that Yiye is suspicious, but for Uzumaki Naruto, he is also very curious about the reason.

Hearing what they said now, he also felt that, as if he couldn't tell for sure, everyone in the village seemed to have a different reaction to Haneda Ichiyo.

"This Haneda Ichiyo is very similar to a person."

In this regard, Uchiha Sasuke did not hide anything, looked at the two partners, and said straightforwardly.

"It's very similar to that Taki Chiba who was once known as Konoha's strongest ninja!"
