"Really …"
Looking at Kakuzu's body that was completely broken, Maples shook his head and looked at his body. Only a few pieces of cloth were left to protect the important parts of his body.
Squatting down beside Kakuzu, he quickly found a stack of banknotes on Kakuzu's body.
Wouch!
Maples dissipated the Chakra on his body, closed the Hachimon Tonkou, and came to the front of the noodle shop owner who was sent out of the attack range by him.
"I'm sorry, I affected you."
"This is compensation."
After handing over the money found on Kakuzu's body to the noodle shop owner, Maples smiled at him and said: "Then, goodbye."
Wouch!
In the next moment, Maples disappeared.
Only the noodle shop owner was still staring at the place where Maples disappeared. It took a long time for him to gradually recover.
Realizing that he was almost involved in the battle between two ninjas, he couldn't help but swallow and murmured: "That young man turned out to be a ninja …"
…
After leaving the town, Maples quickly left in the direction of the Land of Fire.
On the way, he passed through a small town and met a Root ninja under Danzo. After seeing him, the Root ninja conveyed the latest situation and location of Konoha's camp to him.
Two days later.
Maples returned to Konoha's camp.
He can see that the camp here is obviously much smaller than a few months ago. There are almost no younger Genin left in the camp, and there are less than 3,000 soldiers left in the camp.
Not most of them were sent out to fight, but most of them returned to Konoha. The war has continued to consume a lot of resources between the villages, and the order of the ninja world is also in chaos. Now it's time for a short period of recovery.
"You're back, Maples."
Seeing Maples coming in, Orochimaru smiled at Maples and said: "When the news of you killing Hanzo came back, I was shocked for a long time. I didn't expect your strength to reach such a level."
Maples smiled faintly and said: "It's just because my training time is much longer than others."
Orochimaru glanced at Maples and showed a bit of understanding. He can see that Maples' physical development is much faster than the actual progress of time. Now Maples looks almost 16 years old.
Maples probably used the time-type Kekkei Genkai to change the growth rate of his body. By doing so, he can indeed gain great strength in a short period of time, but it will accelerate the aging of the body and reduce his lifespan.
"Speaking of which, your bounty in the underground world is said to have reached 30 million Ryo, you have to be careful, there will probably be troublesome ninjas who will target you."
Orochimaru grinned and said, "It is said that in the Underground World, among the ninjas who obtain various bounties, there are ninjas who once fought against the First Hokage and survived."
"Hmm …"
Maples sighed and said: "I met that guy."
Orochimaru was a little surprised and said: "That's really unfortunate, it seems that you are fine, did you kill that ninja?"
"Hmm."
Maples nodded and walked to the table, poured a cup of tea and took a sip.
Orochimaru was a little shocked, "You killed Hanzo the Salamander, and even killed a ninja who survived the First Hokage's attack, Kaede, have you reached the same level as the First Hokage?"
Eleven years old … No, sixteen years old reaching the level of the First Hokage, such a thing is absolutely incredible, but after all, Maples has the time-type Kekkei Genkai!
Maples shook his head and said: "No, I'm still far from it. The First Hokage ended the war by himself, and made the ninja world without war for decades."
Indeed, he is far from the First Hokage.
Even Uchiha Macula with the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan can't compare.
Now, he can barely cut off a mountain peak with his full strength, but Uchiha Macula with his Full Body Susanoo has such power.
The strongest attack with his full strength is equivalent to an ordinary attack, such a gap is obviously huge.
At this time, if he encounters Uchiha Macula or Hashirama, he can only rely on speed to escape, if he chooses to fight, even if he doesn't die, there is a high probability that he will be sealed.
Maples thought for a while and looked at Orochimaru: "By the way, Orochimaru-sensei, I heard that the Ryuchi Cave has a special Senjutsu above Ninjutsu …"
"Senjutsu …"
Orochimaru tilted his head and thought: "Are you interested in Senjutsu? But you need to go to the Ryuchi Cave to practice it, and you need to get the approval of the White Snake Sage. I can tell you the location of the Ryuchi Cave, but I can't help you with that. "
"Just tell me the location of the Ryuchi Cave."
Maples nodded slightly to Orochimaru.
After thinking for a while, Orochimaru spat out a scroll and handed it to Maples: "This scroll records the location of the Ryuchi Cave and the special way to enter."
"Thank you, Orochimaru-sensei."
Maples took the scroll, and the lightning arcs intertwined to clean it, then he sat down and said: "The situation of the war seems to have calmed down, Sandaime hasn't decided on the Fourth Hokage yet?"
"Sarutobi sensei's attitude is hard to say …"
Orochimaru smiled and said: "Sarutobi sensei should prefer Minato, but Danzo is on my side now … If you also support me, even if Sarutobi sensei chooses Minato, it may not be confirmed."
"Of course, I'm on your side, Sensei."
Maples chuckled and opened the scroll to look at it, and his brows slightly raised.
The location of the Ryuchi Cave is close to the Land of Water. If he starts from here, he will have to cross half of the Land of Fire, and he will have to pass through Konoha.
Maples was thinking about whether he should first get the cultivation methods of the three major Sage Techniques and start to develop the Sage Body, or open the Hachimon Tonkou to the Sixth Gate as soon as possible.
Because of the Lightning Release, he can feel that the shackles of the Sixth Gate in his body are not as strong as before, especially when he uses Lightning Chakra.
At this level, at five times the speed, he will be able to break through it in a few months.
If he opens the Sixth Gate, his strength should be able to reach the level of a Super Kage. Even if he still can't compare to Uchiha Macula and Hashirama, he won't be too far behind.
And if he practices Sage Techniques, he can make up for his weakness in perception, and it won't be as troublesome as when he was dealing with Hanzo the Salamander.
After thinking for a while.
Maples finally decided to go back to Konoha first.
Anyway, if he wants to go to the Ryuchi Cave, he will have to pass through Konoha. He will take advantage of this opportunity to go back and repair the White Tooth and then give it to Kakashi. He will also see if he can get a set of higher level weights to make the Hachimon Tonkou easier.
As for the war on the front line, he is too lazy to intervene too much. Compared to fighting everywhere, it is undoubtedly more practical to further improve his strength.
After all.
It seems that he is almost invincible now, but Uchiha Macula is still alive at this time, and with his current movements in the Shinobi World, it is impossible not to attract the attention of the other party.
If Uchiha Macula suddenly targets him and tries to attack him, it will be very troublesome.
The current state of Uchiha Macula is very difficult to determine, and no one knows how much strength he has left.
Moreover, even if Uchiha Macula can't pose any threat to him, and the battlefield of the Third Shinobi World War can no longer threaten him, he will continue to improve his strength in the following time to prepare for the Fourth Shinobi World War that may break out in the future.
He is a cautious person.
Therefore, he had to work hard for 'Ready Perfect' — he had to be fully prepared.
