Behind the Scenes in Naruto World

Chapter 111: 4 years later

In the Amegakure.

Uehara didn’t know what was happening in Konoha.

As a qualified behind-the-scenes mastermind, Uehara has to check the progress of his main mission.

The storm he directed from behind the scenes targeting Uchiha Obito made his main mission progress jump up, reaching 12%.

Unfortunately, it stopped there.

This was the last time Uehara could target Obito this year.

Moreover, the five major powers of the Ninja world condemned Uchiha Obito vigorously, but with no traces of Obito were found, so the storm gradually dissipated as time went on.

Time was advancing little by little.

Uehara now also had two teammates, Kimimaro and Haku, and their three-man team gradually became active in the Ninja World.

Uehara also grew up day by day, becoming an innocent and kind young ninja. Kimimaro’s body also improved while Haku became more delicate and lovely.

Four years have passed in a blink of an eye.

For four years, the ninja world was like a pool of stagnant water.

It was normal for the ninja world to be so peaceful. After all, Uehara had been trapped in the Amegakure by his teacher.

Aside from Uehara, Obito was in charge of the chaos in Ninja World.

It’s a pity that both Uchiha Obito and Uchiha Itachi had been staying in a certain corner very quietly and didn’t make much noise.

But this year, a new Uchiha would become a ninja.

It was Uchiha Sasuke from the Konohagakure.

Except for Itachi, only Uehara would pay attention to Sasuke and Team 7. After all, Team 7 would be the first batch of leeks he harvested.

Everything was staged as Uehara expected.

When Team 7, led by Kakashi, performed the Land of Waves mission, the ninjas they encountered were still Zabuza and his team.

It was a pity that Zabuza’s partner had changed.

This time, the Zabuza’s partner was a guy called Hozuki Mangetsu.

Zabuza + Mangetsu, two official members of the Akatsuki, was enough to push Team 7 into despair.

Since missions were scarce in the Amegakure, Uehara couldn’t find a suitable excuse to go out for a while. As he grew older, Konan gradually began to strictly forbid him from contacting the Akatsuki’s members because she was worried that those rebels would lead him astray.

Fortunately, Kimimaro and Haku were there.

Konan didn’t care if these two had contact with him.

Uehara sat on the concrete pipe in Amegakure, reached out to take a glass of chilled juice from Haku’s hand, and asked curiously, “Did Mangetsu and Zabuza already come back? What was the result of their mission in the Country of Wave?”

“From the results, it seems not bad.”

Kimimaro nodded and said solemnly, “They killed Gato and transported all of Gato’s money to the Akatsuki’s base, but there was a little problem in the middle. The two met Konoha’s Hatake Kakashi, and they both lost.”

Uehara couldn’t help but shake his head and sighed, “Hey, that guy always has a 50-50 winning rate no matter how strong you are!”

Kakashi’s luck was outrageous.

Both of the Akatsuki’s official members had been defeated by him. Could it be that Kakashi became stronger again because of Obito?

The incident in the Land of Waves ended, so Haku survived his fated death.

Uehara completed a side mission by lying down.

[Side Mission: Ensure that Haku survives (0/1)]

[Reward: skill Ice Barrier]

[Ice Barrier: Create a huge ice wall by freezing the air, lasting 5 seconds. The duration is proportional to the amount of Chakra used, with a minimum of 75 Chakra. Cooldown, 10 seconds.]

Uehara didn’t care much for this skill.

His hard work in Amegakure has finally paid off over the past four years, and Uehara made himself stronger through his practice and accumulation of time.

Well, it’s mainly because he grew up.

After all, Uehara was sixteen years old this year and experienced many changes in both height and body shape. With the addition of several side mission rewards, his strength has increased slightly.

*****

Life Energy: 8231/8231 (standard Kage’s have 3000 – 10000) [E/N: No, I don’t know why it went from the range of a quasi-kage to the range of a Kage]

Chakra: 10045/10045 (outside of standard ranges)

Life Energy Recovery: 9/s

Chakra recovery: 6/s

Skill Cooldown Reduction: 50%

Remaining Gold Coins: 2730

As Uehara finished listening to Kimimaro and Haku’s report and prepared to leave, a young girl climbed onto the concrete pipe where they were.

Her name was Ajisai, and she was a genin who had just graduated from Ame ninja school this year.

Ajisai walked to the front of Uehara step by step and whispered, “Uehara-sama, Lady Angel asked you to be responsible for receiving Konoha’s messenger.”

“Konoha’s messenger?”

Uehara couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows.

Amegakure has been in an isolated state, and it was announced that they were still in a civil war. Usually, neighboring countries were too lazy to take care of Ame’s affairs.

However, the arrival of the Konoha’s messenger was really important.

Their purpose was to invite Ame ninjas to participate in the joint ninja test. According to ninja theory, the ninja test was equivalent to an arms race in the ninja world.

If Amegakure was willing to participate, they could send a team of Jonin and Genin to take the exam by going to the border of the Land of Fire.

After passing the Konoha Ninja registration at the border, they would be given a temporary pass to enter the Konohagakure, which would help avoid unnecessary conflict.

After Konoha’s messenger left, origami butterflies appeared next to Uehara, converging to form Konan’s appearance.

Four years have passed.

Konan didn’t change much. She just gained a touch of mature charm.

Konan raised her head and looked up at his tall disciple and asked softly, “Is Konoha plotting anything in this Chunin exam?”

“Or is it to show off the talents of the Great Ninja Village?”

Uehara smiled and continued softly, “Konan-sensei, help me prepare three registration certificates. Kimimaro, Haku, and I are going to take the Chunin exam.”

Hearing Uehara’s words, Konan’s eyes were full of incomprehension, “Naraku, why do you want to take the Chunin exam?”

Did her disciple not understand his current position?

Uehara was the future leader of Amegakure!

“I want to investigate Danzo.”

Uehara looked at Konan, who was worried, and shook his head and said in a low voice, “Sensei, there is no need to worry about our safety.”

The Chunin exam was also a big event, and Uehara actually planned to take this opportunity to sneak out and play around. Along the way, he could harvest some leeks that had been cultivated for many years and get some newly grown leeks.

If he could…

Uehara’s eyes were a bit dark and bright. He wanted to use this opportunity to lure Uzumaki Naruto into darkness and even get him to join the Akatsuki.

Among the side missions, many missions wanted Naruto to blacken!

For example, one side mission required Pain and Naruto to sit side by side, smoking in the ruins of Konohagakure. The reward was absolutely beyond imagination!

But the difficulty was also very high.

After all, minors in the Ninja World were forbidden to smoke or drink, and Nagato wouldn’t manipulate Pain to smoke, right?

While Uehara thought about the random side missions, Konan was also thinking about the feasibility of her disciples taking the Chunin exam. Taking the Chunin exam at the age of sixteen was reasonable, right?

If you ignore the fact that Uehara was going to investigate Shimura Danzo, it felt like Uehara was going to bully a group of children.

As for the safety issue, there was no need to worry.

Konan has been carefully nurturing her disciples, and the strength of her disciples was not much different from that of the Akatsuki’s official members, and he could also summon Tendo Pain.

She carefully raised this disciple, and it seems like he could be released to fly around now, right?

After thinking for a while, Konan asked a question, “You need someone to lead the team, but it was not convenient for me to come…”

“That’s easy.”

A smile appeared on Uehara’s face, “It’s fine to get Hattori Hirakawa-senpai to go with us. He’s also our old friend.”
