Chapter 168 Travel

Aokiji had just taken a step, when several familiar figures in front of him caught his attention.

It was Tsunade, and beside her were Jiraiya and Orochimaru. It seemed that their injuries had healed and they could move around freely.

Qingzhi was about to choose his words carefully when the figure in front of him flickered.

With a burst of fragrance, warmth flows into the bosom.

It was Tsunade's hug.

Aokiji showed apologetic expression: "I have caused you trouble."

"There will be no next time, you know."

Qingzhi smiled and said: "I'm sorry, but then again, how long are you going to hold me?"

Tsunade was startled, realizing that people around him were watching, his ears turned red, and he hurriedly left.

Zilai also wondered when the relationship between the two of them was good enough to hug each other. Did something go wrong while he was hospitalized?

"When did you two get along so well?"

Tsunade explained with a guilty conscience: "Don't get me wrong, I just saw that he had been in prison for too long, so I gave him a hug as comfort."

Zilai also expressed his understanding, and drew inferences: "That's true, but I was lying on the hospital bed for so long, and I finally recovered. Why didn't I see you give me a hug to express comfort."

Tsunade gave him a look, to experience it carefully, whether he has a B number in his heart.

Jiraiya sighed, pursuing the path of Tsunade is a long way to go, but he will not give up.

Qingzhi congratulated the two friends: "Congratulations to you two, it seems that you have recovered."

Dashewan felt a little emotional: "A lot of things really happened during the hospitalization."

Aokiji rejoiced amidst the bitterness: "Oshemaru team has had a bad year since its establishment. Out of the four members, two were hospitalized and one was imprisoned."

The little boyfriend was released from prison, and Tsunade, who was in a good mood, even joked: "Isn't it because you guys have been punished for being dishonest?"

Aokiji snorted, looked at Tsunade who was still safe and sound, and joked: "That's not sure, it's just that the time has not come. Maybe, you will be worse than the three of us."

Tsunade squeezed Xiaofen's fist, pretending to be fierce: "You cursed me, didn't you?"

Aokiji is as good as others, and chooses to admit counsel.

………………………

Back in Konoha, Aokiji immediately visited Elder Itachi's great kindness, if he hadn't intervened in it, Aokiji would probably have been jailed.

"How did you convince the daimyo to let me go? Those guys are quite stubborn and arrogant."

Elder Itachi smiled slightly: "I gave them a reason they couldn't refuse."

Aokiji: "???"

Hearing this tone, it seemed that he had done something to threaten the other party, so the daimyo was willing to let it go.

Hiss~~

Is Elder Itachi so fierce?

Because Aokiji is not an aborigine, he has a disdainful attitude towards daimyo, a carbon-based creature. It is unexpected that elder Itachi, a native, is so vigorous.

Immediately, his image in his mind became a little more stalwart.

Seeing that Aokiji was planning to get to the bottom of it, Elder Itachi was not very willing to answer: "It's better for you to inquire less about what happened in the middle. You only need to know one thing. In this world, strength is the most important language." .”

Qingzhi nodded when he heard the words, expressing his full approval. If he had had absolute strength in this crisis, he would not have come to this point at all, and he could just flip the table.

Elder Itachi shook his hand and waved back: "I'm a little tired, if you have nothing to do, go down."

Qingzhi hurriedly said: "I have something to do, I have something to do."

Elder Itachi's eyes revealed a questioning expression.

Aokiji pondered for a moment, and told his elders that he wanted to travel.

"travel?"

"What happened, some ninjas in the village might look at me as a prickly ninja like me. I plan to use the name of travel to avoid the limelight, so as not to look at each other with blank eyes."

"Stabhead?" Elder Itachi said sarcastically, "You do have self-knowledge."

Aokiji scratched his cheeks like a monkey, and smiled contemptuously: "We are all ninjas from the same village, and we will inevitably perform missions together in the future. I'd better not stay in the village to stimulate their nerves."

Elder Itachi smiled so that his face became more wrinkled: "You have matured a lot after going through this prison."

"People just grow up."

"Well, you can travel if you want to travel. Be careful on the road and protect yourself."

Aokiji showed a happy face, and with the approval and endorsement of his old man, he will be able to wander outside alone without any scruples.

Next, it was Hokage's side. Aokiji went straight to Hokage's office, found Hiru Sarutobi and said straight to the point that he was going to travel and didn't plan to stay in the village.

In view of the bad influence caused by Aokiji, Hiruzaru Sarutobi thought it would be better to avoid the limelight, so he agreed.

"If I leave the team, someone will join in." Even after leaving the team, Aokiji still cares about his friends.

"It's going to be dismantled."

"open?"

"Well, Tsunade is applying to become a jonin recently."

"what's the result?"

"Junin is not enough, but it can still be considered if the Jnin goes too far."

In particular, the level of ninja is between zhongnin and junin. The strength may not be as strong as jnin, but they all have a skill.

Tsunade's medical skills are superb, which is also appropriate. If she is promoted to the ranks, she will not be able to maintain it.

Qingzhi praised a few words from the bottom of his heart.

"Aokiji, you should work hard too, do you want to consider taking the Chunin Exam?"

Aokiji shook his head: "I think it's good to be a ninja."

Ninja is the strongest ninja.

"That's really a pity." Yuan Fei's daily clothes didn't force him.

Leaving Hokage's office, Aokiji didn't leave Konoha immediately, planning to stay for two days before leaving.

Walking on the road, Aokiji ran into Jiraiya by chance, and he saw the right expression on Aokiji's face: "Aokiji, I have something for you."

"Send me something?"

"Well, this is your gift from prison."

Aokiji accepted the bag handed over gratefully, with a curious look on his face: "I don't mind, I'll open it now and have a look."

"It's okay, this is what I gave you."

Aokiji nodded, opened it, and inside was a dark, square shape, which should be quite soft in terms of texture.

If you didn't miss it, this thing should be called konjac, something that can be eaten.

Zilai also asked, "How is it?"

"What's the matter, this thing is konjac."

Aokiji wondered why he would give himself this thing.

Send him to eat?

Zilai also laughed and said, "Pick it up carefully and have a look."

Aokiji looked confused, picked it up as he did, and found konjac, after looking carefully at the words.

"Let me tell you that using this and that is comparable to a real person."

ah?

When Aokiji reacted, the wheel had already run over his face.

"You don't have a girlfriend." Jiraiya patted Aokiji's shoulder with a thank you expression.

Aokiji: ...

After a long time, he choked out a sentence: "Jiraiya, if you put this thought into developing ninjutsu, I think you can even develop S-level ninjutsu."

Ji Lai also feels good about himself: Haha, actually I feel the same way..."

Aokiji said speechlessly, "I'm not praising you."

Ji Lai also let out an uh, and finally realized.

"Really, what are you thinking about all day long... Please find a girlfriend."

"What can I do, Tsunade refuses to promise me..."

"Where there is no fragrant grass in the end of the world, why bother to fall in love with a single flower? Besides, I don't think it looks like you are chasing a girl in your volatile state. Besides, everyone already has a boyfriend. How can you chase her?" go up."

Jiraiya was stunned: "Nani, do you know who Tsunade's sweetheart is?"

Aokiji nodded.

"Which bastard is it?"

Qingzhi looked left and right, and quietly moved closer: "I tell you, don't tell anyone."

Zilai also nodded, "Say it."

Aokiji poked his cheek with his finger.

Ji Lai also blinked, not understanding.

"me."

Qingzhi showed his teeth in a smile, showing Yida's danger.

Jilai also said "ah", and laughed loudly: "Qingzhi, you really like to joke, even if you want to persuade me, you don't have to hold back such a lame reason."

Qingzhi said seriously: "I'm not lying."

Jilai also patted Aokiji on the shoulder, as if I understood: "Okay, okay, I don't know you two, I know you too well, if you say that you talk to each other, you might as well say that you two are talking to each other." Orochimaru is a bit more reliable in terms of foundation."

"What am I saying?"

Ji Lai was also taken aback by the sudden gloomy voice. After seeing the person coming, he said with a resentful face: "Oshemaru, why do you always appear like a snake."

"I was originally a snake." Orochimaru laughed.

Aokiji smiled.

At this time, Orochimaru is not as gloomy and cold as in the original book, and he is in a good mood when he encounters it, and occasionally he can make a joke.

Zilai also snorted.

Orochimaru smiled and said, "What were you talking about just now?"

Just as Jiraiya was about to say something, Aokiji interrupted his conversation: "By the way, it just so happens that both of you are here, I have something to tell you."

He wanted to confess to Zilai also in a half-joking way just now, so as not to say that he was hiding it from him in the future.

He understood Jiraiya's personality, and would definitely laugh it off as a joke.

But Orochimaru is different, he may really believe it, and he may not be sure if he secretly investigates out of curiosity.

I heard Qingzhi had something to explain. Jiraiya and Orochimaru turned their heads one after another.

Qingzhi coughed twice: "To put it simply, I will not be in the village from now on, and I will travel for a while."

………………

………………

The day before leaving the village.

Under a cliff, near a secluded river.

Aokiji, who was practicing, felt someone nearby, stopped practicing, and called out.

"It seems that you discovered it."

Along with a voice rippling, a slender figure came out from behind the tree.

"You didn't hide your chakra and breath, so it's not normal for me not to find out. In other words, you let me find out on purpose."

Aokiji gave such a firm explanation to Tsunade who appeared in front of him.

Tsunade didn't deny it, and changed the subject: "I heard from Jiraiya and Orochimaru, what kind of trip are you going to leave the village for?"

"Yes."

"Why, don't you stay in the village for a while longer?" Aokiji left immediately after returning to the village, Tsunade was still a little bit reluctant.

"Maybe it was locked in a small space for too long, so after I came out, I had an urge to go out and see the world is so big."

"Well, it seems that the time in prison has had a great impact on you."

"If you want to put it this way, I lived like a year during that time..." Aokiji had a helpless smile on his face, and his imprisonment was not just talking.

"It's so pitiful, do you want to touch me for you?"

"Eh???"

Tsunade's cheeks were flushed red, and his expression twisted: "Because, you seem to be happy this way."

A trance flashed across Aokiji's face, and he ran over.

Tsunade punches his face with his hand, and love breaks his face.

With a "bang", Aokiji leaned back, clutching his bleeding nose.

Tsunade exhaled: "Very well, it seems that you are very energetic, I am overthinking."

Aokiji looked mmp: "Tsunade, you have changed. In the future, you will not be like this."

The corner of Tsunade's mouth drew a crescent-like arc: "This is called this moment, and that moment. And don't you know that there is a proverb called a woman's heart, which is as unpredictable as the autumn weather?"

Aokiji sighed, somewhat missing the gentle Tsunade on the first date.

He is cheap.

He likes Tsunade's rebellious look, but the problem is that he can be moody at times.

"Nah~ Were you alone when you were traveling?" She asked suddenly, "Will there be girls on the road?"

"Girls..." Aokiji rubbed her chin, seeming to be seriously thinking about this question.

"Hello--!"

Tsunade knew at a glance what he was thinking about each other, and became jealous.

"If you insist on being a companion, I only hope that there is only one person, and that is you, Tsunade."

Tsunade was picked up and waved: "Come here."

"Why?" Aokiji grinned wickedly: "Did you feel moved by what I said just now, so you are willing to give me hehe..."

"Your mind is full of nothing but..."

Speaking of this, Tsunade seemed to sigh when he gave up. He didn't know Aokiji for a day or two anyway.

The mountain didn't come like me, so she walked towards the mountain, quickened her pace, approached Aokiji, tipped her legs, and tapped Aokiji's lips lightly with her lips.

After that, he crossed his hands behind his back, took a few steps back, and said with a smile on his face, "This is compensation for hitting you just now."

"You seem to be getting bolder and bolder. You were so shy at first."

Aokiji caressed the lingering taste on his lips.

Tsunade said quietly: "This is not thanks to someone..."

"Okay, my pot."

"After that, I will sometimes perform tasks alone, if there is still time to spare, so..." Tsunade gritted his teeth, as if he was planning something.

Qingzhi was stunned: "So...?"

Tsunade went all out: "Go on a date with me."

"ah?"

Tsunade's eyes were watery, and he looked pitiful: "Don't you want to?"

"Of course not." The green pheasant is not melon skin.

"Okay."

Tsunade jumped up and down, as happy as if he had won the game.

But soon she realized something again, and covered her mouth in a reserved manner.

Aokiji smiled, and his voice was tinged with playfulness: "You seem to be very happy to date me."

"It's not because of this matter, it's just that you asked me out last time, so this time I want me to ask you out..."

It seems that there is no confidence, and the voice becomes smaller and smaller in the end.

"Tsunade?"

Aokiji teased her and called her name.

Tsunade, who was silent, took a deep breath, with a bright smile on his face, he generously admitted: "That's right~ I am really looking forward to a date with Aokiji-kun now because I am looking forward to it.

Qingzhi was hit by a straight ball and couldn't find the north, so why didn't he play his cards according to the routine: "Eh? Why don't you keep rubbing and getting tired?"

Tsunade plucked up his courage and said frankly: "Because I think we may go on like this in the future, and I have to adapt quickly."

Qingzhi had some scruples: "You are so proactive, what if someone sees you?"

"What are you afraid of? I'm not afraid. Can you stop acting like a bitch here!? Tsunade held Aokiji in his arms with great determination: "And if you see it, you will see it, anyway, grandma has agreed . "

At this moment, Aokiji seemed to be a little daughter-in-law in Tsunade's arms: "Oh, that's good. Well, wait, what did you say?"

Tsunade told Aokiji about what happened to Mito last time.

Aokiji was taken aback, Mito's perception was too perverted.

But fortunately, the other party was more sensible and did not try to obstruct it.

"So... are you going to announce it?

Tsunade met Aokiji's gaze. If possible, she still hoped that she would not be so sneaky and be aboveboard.

Faced with this hopeful look, Qingzhi was a little afraid to look at it, and dodged his eyes, and said expediently: "Wait for a year, wait and see."

Tsunade:……

"Why, you look like that."

"I don't know why, you say that, I will always be with you year after year, and in the end I may be with you..."

The following words were too embarrassing to speak, Tsunade skipped directly: "You still refuse to announce it."

"You think too much."

"No, you can really do something like this. Because it's prudence."

Aokiji: ...

Just when the two were loving each other, they didn't notice a crow on the treetop tilting its head, watching all this with dill eyes.

………………………

The next day, Aokiji bid farewell to Tsunade and the others, left Konoha, and went to the address given by Kadotsu.

There is a door deep in the alley, and there is a strong man with a samurai sword outside the door.

This is a pawn shop, and the boss behind the scenes is Jiaodu.

When it comes to the kidnapping of the daimyo's son in the future, there will never be any clues left. Aokiji is cautious and cautious, and the less outsiders know about the deity's face, the better.

Thinking of this, Aokiji made a mudra with both hands, and used a transformation technique, turning into a handsome boy with black hair hanging down like a waterfall.

After doing all this, Aokiji entered the pawn shop.

Seeing the black-haired boy in a cloak approaching, the guard raised his guard out of professional instinct and reached out to stop him.

Aokiji glanced at the guard. He was tall and had disorderly steps. He was a typical outsider and middle-ranking type. He would bully and bully ordinary people, otherwise he would not be able to be a watchdog.

He didn't bother to explain, and raised his hand to kill him instantly, thinking what kind of rubbish this is.

He remembered that in the original book, after Kakuzu died, his accountant seemed to be robbed first by Suigetsu, and then cheated by Shizune to repay Tsunade's debt...

Obviously very greedy for money, but the security of money is so weak.

Aokiji shook his head, unscrewed the door, and went straight in.

There are two people inside, one is sitting and smoking, the other is standing, it seems that they should be the identity of the boss and the guy.

Being able to become Kakuzu's subordinate would naturally have some discernment. From the first time he saw this black-haired boy in a cloak, he had a premonition that the other party was definitely not here to treat him as something.

"Don't be nervous, I'm here to find someone." Qingzhi found a chair and sat down casually, just like his own home.

"Excuse me, who are you looking for?" The boss realized that the doorman might have been killed, so he had a pleasant face and took expedient measures.

Qingzhi cut straight to the point: "Jiaodu..."

The boss was taken aback, and pretended to be confused: "This guest really likes to joke."

Jiaodu is a bounty hunter. Due to the special nature of his profession, he often offends people on weekdays.

"Don't you want to say it?" Qingzhi shrugged: "Forget it, just say that someone is looking for him. If he comes, please tell me, I will be there on time at two o'clock every afternoon." After all, it's not far Talk more, turn around and leave.

Ah, I just left... The owner of the pawnshop obviously left without thinking, and asked for information.

"Just say that someone is looking for it, and he will remember it naturally."

Watching Aokiji leave, the owner of the pawnshop, Zhanger King Kong, was puzzled. After a few days, he finished work and returned to the pawnshop.

"The owner of the pawnshop saw the boss coming back, and immediately went up to greet him and told Jiaodu everything about the past few days.

Jiao was taken aback.

Which kid will it be?

But after thinking about it, his appearance didn't match. In his impression, the black-haired boy's hair should not be so long. With doubts, he waited until two o'clock in the afternoon.

Aokiji arrived as scheduled.

After seeing Jiaodu, he was surprised. He had never seen this black-haired boy before, so why did he say that he knew his appearance.

"Let's take a step to talk, Kakuzu-san."

As Aokiji spoke, the corners turned around, and after a closer look, he found that this was actually a transformation technique.

"Come with me……"

Kakudo led Aokiji to a room, this room has been soundproofed, so there is no need to worry about the content inside being heard by him outside.

Jiaodu sat on the soft sofa, watched the strange boy speak and said, "You can cancel the transformation technique."

Qingzhi shook his head; "The less people know about my real identity, the better."

Kodozu squinted his eyes and looked at Aokiji: "You are such a prudent guy, so in that case, did you give your current identity a new name?"

Jiaodu's words reminded Qingzhi, and he thought of a common name temporarily: "Well, you can call me Ma Cang Ye Wang now, Ma Cang is the surname, and Ye Wang is the first name."

Ma Cang Ye Wang?

What a random name.

Kakuzu memorized the name for now.

At this time, he suddenly asked a question: "Have you betrayed the village?

Qingzhi was not in a hurry to refute; "Why do you think so?"

"Don't you forget that the target you escorted last time was such a rich and powerful person. You, a ninja who survived, should be punished very severely. Unless you defected, how could you be safe and sound? Appear here."

"How can I be safe and sound, I have been in a prison for a long time. Qingzhi smiled bitterly: "It was finally released. "

jail?

Jiao Du was startled when he heard the words, thinking of his own experience.

He was also a man in prison.

For a while, he had a stronger sense of identification with Aokiji.

"Ghost Lamp City. This is the place where I was imprisoned." Aokiji continued to speak, with a gloomy expression, hoping to make Jiaodu feel the same way.

Jiaodu thought about this name. He was almost transferred to Ghost Lamp City at the beginning, but before the official transfer, he directly killed all the high-level officials and then defected.

"How did you get out of prison." He was curious.

The impression is like a ghost city, very strict. If you go in, you can't get out.

Aokiji gave a simple explanation and told Kakuto.

After listening to Jiao, he understood that if it was his own village, he would not save him and let him sit in prison.

The beginning is the same but the results are different, and the corners are instantly lost.

Jiaodu returned to the original question: "Then why did you come to see me?"

Qingzhi said: "Make money."

Horns love this word.
