Naruto: As a genin, I just want to live a normal life.

Page 182

With a loud bang, the ground beneath Gamabunta's feet turned into liquid and formed a huge swamp, rendering Gamabunta unable to move.

"Jiraiya! You summoned me here just so I could take the damage?!"

Jiraiya scratched his cheek awkwardly: "Well, only someone like Bunta, with your body type, would be a suitable match..."

"You bastard!!"

Jiraiya was being verbally abused by Gamabunta, leaving him bloodied, while two Chunin worked together to complete the hand seals for Water Release.

Water Release: Water Chaos Wave! x2

Two jets of water sprayed onto Gamabunta's body. Gamabunta glanced down at the small water jets and burst out laughing: "Jiraiya, your Konoha ninjas aren't so great after all..."

Jiraiya didn't know what to say, and awkwardly scratched his cheek.

Below, Hirata Shinichi put his hands on his hips and said, "Come on, Tangun."

"Yes!"

Okamura Dan formed hand seals, completing the Lightning Release technique, and placed them on the two individuals:

"Thunder Escape·Earth Walk!"

Meanwhile, Shinichi Hirata began to use the Water Release techniques of the two weak Chunin, forming hand seals:

"Water Escape·Water Formation Pillar!"

"Combination Ninjutsu: Lightning Water Pillar Formation!!"

boom--

The combined ninjutsu, like a giant water column mixed with lightning and paralysis, transformed into a huge fist that struck Gamabunta hard in the stomach.

Gamabunta at this moment: "Jiraiya, damn it—"

With a thud, Gamabunta was injured and retreated. Jiraiya fell from above, using the Lion's Mane Technique to grab a tree trunk in mid-air and land safely.

"Thank you for your hard work, Bunta. I'll make it up to you next time." Jiraiya could only apologize silently. Besides, Bunta wasn't really hurt by the attack; he just didn't want to stay any longer.

After all, they can't fight back; they can only take damage.

Jiraiya was well aware of Shinichi Hirata's strength; in terms of the attack range of his ninjutsu, it was not small.

If he were to summon other toads, their size would likely be slightly smaller, and their relationship wouldn't be as good as his and Bunta's.

"Alright. Our chakra is almost exhausted. Jiraiya, you've succeeded." Shinichi Hirata said to Jiraiya, his arms crossed.

"Hmph! This is the power of the Toad Sage!"

Seeing Jiraiya's smug expression, Shinichi Hirata sensed what was behind him and chuckled, "Next."

"New support troops have arrived."

"Please, Toad Master, do your best!"

The voice just fell.

call out!call out!call out!call out!

"Shinichi-senpai, Jiraiya-senpai."

The newcomers were Jonin from the Sarutobi clan. In addition to a Jonin from the Hyuga branch family, the team also included two Jonin, Shimura Yuko and Shiranui Kumo, who both looked reluctant.

"Seriously, why did they suddenly start chasing their own people?"

"Stop talking, Yuuko," Shiranui Kumoma advised, looking up ahead.

"Jiraiya-senpai, it seems that with you here, our team may not be able to catch up."

"Even so, we must pursue them," Jonin Sarutobi said coldly. "It's the Hokage's order!"

"I can no longer see the four-person team within the range of my Byakugan; they must have run far away," said Hinata after turning off his Byakugan.

"Jiraiya-senpai, are you still going to stop us?" Jonin Sarutobi asked impatiently.

"Of course, this is..."

call out--

Minato Namikaze appeared next to Jiraiya. "Sensei, we've successfully left... uh."

"Minato, you've come at just the right time." Jiraiya grabbed Minato, who nodded and looked helplessly at the unfriendly-looking Jonin Sarutobi. "Sorry, it's my duty."

call out--

Jiraiya and Minato disappeared from the spot together. Jonin Sarutobi was so angry that his eyes turned red. "Chase them! If your squad is out of chakra, go back and report!"

“Yes, Jonin Junjin.” Shinichi Hirata replied.

The traces at the scene were enough to show that the attack by the three members of the team was quite powerful, and Sarutobi Toshihito didn't say anything more.

If they had really fought, the four of them wouldn't be so clean.

But Sarutobi Toshihito is different.

He inherited his father Hihiko Sarutobi's will to uphold the authority of the Hokage!

Therefore, he will take it seriously!

Unfortunately, the other three had no intention of giving chase, so in the end, he failed to catch up.

Chapter 138 Separation and Research on the Gate of Time and Space

Outside the village, the battle raged fiercely.

The village gradually returned to peace.

Shirahoshi, Yuhi Ryuun, and Sarutobi Shinsuke violated ninja rules and were punished by the Hokage with a week of confinement, prohibited from leaving the area, accepting missions, and other activities...

So, Xi Ri Liu Yun had a sudden inspiration and came up with a perfect solution: to stay at home comfortably without being bored.

"Can I stay at Shirahoshi's house?"

Anonymous: "..."

The ANBU member glanced sideways, their speechless gaze sweeping over her. Shirahoshi avoided the ANBU member's gaze and turned her head slightly.

"Why are you looking at me like that! Reject her!!"

The ANBU member, not understanding the meaning behind Shirahoshi's actions, looked down at the report in his hand and continued:

"The Hokage didn't say anything about that. But it doesn't seem to matter."

"However, this also makes it easier for me to monitor whether you're going out..."

"Cough cough." Bai Xing coughed violently.

The secret agents ignored them, pretending not to see, and wrote down that the two lived in a certain area, on the third floor, room 306...

Shirahoshi is numb.

What will happen if he goes to Loulan?!

"Um, is this...?"

"Anyway, Shirahoshi, your house has two rooms, so I can just stay in the smaller one~" Yuhi Ryuun said with a smile.

"..."

"Alright, you have one hour to buy groceries. After that, another member of the secret service and I will be responsible for monitoring you and restricting your movements for a week."

"By the way, my ANBU codename is Kuromaru, and it's also the name of my ninja dog."

The tiny black ball perched on Inuzuka Tsurugi's head and barked once in response.

"Thank you for your help, Miss Kuromaru."

Inuzuka Tsurugi: "You're welcome."

Finally, after an hour, Xi Ri Liu Yun retrieved a bunch of daily necessities from the Xi Ri Clan's territory and ran briskly to Bai Xing's house to put them away. To Bai Xing's speechless look, she even treated the remaining small guest room as her own room...

"I'm saying, Liuyun, it's not really appropriate for a young, unmarried woman like you to sleep in my house."

"What's inappropriate about it?"

"This is called adapting in advance."

Yuhi Ryuun blushed slightly and said something shameless, leaving Inuzuka Tsuru, who was filling out a report at the door, speechless and causing his right hand, which was holding a pen, to tremble slightly.

"from now on."

"You are not allowed to leave your home, see anyone, or send any signals to the outside world for a week."

Any violation of these rules will be considered a act of treason by the village.

"Understood." x2

This is what confinement is all about.

Similar to modern probation.

However, because the Hokage trusted Shirahoshi and Yuhi Ryuun's loyalty, it only lasted for a week.

Like Orochimaru breaking into the solitary confinement room and conducting unauthorized human experiments.

According to Bai Xing, the confinement lasted for at least three months.

All items to be purchased must be approved by members of the surveillance unit, who also have the right to enter the house at any time to check the situation.

Time passed slowly, and Shirahoshi stayed inside, pondering how to escape.

If Liu Yun wasn't there, he could use his slime clone to stay there, and then use Flying Thunder God Technique to move to a corner of the Loulan Queen's office.

That place is the end point of the Heavenly Delivery Technique and the location of the newly transmitted Flying Thunder God Kunai.

The ring on his hand is made of a chakra metal infused with dragon vein chakra, and it is also a component inside a mobile phone produced by Loulan.

Furthermore, the Loulan Queen's office has means to shield itself from the surveillance of the inner city barrier.

Therefore, 'Dragon Vein Tag' + 'Shielding Detection' = Barrier has no effect.

Simply put, if Minato could borrow the Dragon Vein Chakra, then he could use the Flying Thunder God Technique to move freely within the inner city of Loulan.

At this point, Minato couldn't move so many people; otherwise, he would have already teleported Naruto and the others directly to the area near the border of the Land of Rivers with the Kingdom of Loulan.

"do not care."
