Naruto: Are you worthy of being called Sage Mode?

Sarutobi Hiruzen returned to the wooden house and began to retreat. Miki Ai built a wooden house not far from Sarutobi Hiruzen's wooden house.

Usually only Shimura Danzo would occasionally come to check on the situation. Now Danzo only wanted to strengthen the Shimura clan and had completely given up on the idea of ​​becoming Hokage.

Every time he came, Danzo would show off to Sarutobi Hiruzen how hard he worked, and the Shimura clan would definitely be particularly powerful in the future.

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't say much. He was still in the Qi refining stage, so even if he went into seclusion, he wouldn't be in seclusion for too long, and he wouldn't enter into deep cultivation. He might go into seclusion once in the future during the foundation building stage or even the golden elixir stage. This guy Danzo passed away.

Danzo has no spiritual roots. At the same time, he has implanted other people's cells in his body and has undergone a certain degree of physical transformation. He is basically useless.

However, after all, he was a friend from his previous life, and Danzo's existence was also very important to Konoha. He was destined to be remembered in Konoha's history and reviled by the world.

There is no time to practice, it only takes half a year in the blink of an eye.

Miki Xiaoai's cultivation speed is pretty good and she has reached the third level of Qi refining.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was training for the second time. In his previous life, he knew every stage of the Qi Refining Stage, so Miki Koai's speed was astonishing.

However, it is normal for the cultivation speed to be fast in the early stage of Qi refining period.

Taking a deep breath, Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up. It was time to find Tsunade and go to the Shiggou Forest!

Walking on the streets of Konoha, Sarutobi Hiruzen discovered that the scale of Konoha has expanded again, and the facilities in the city have become more modern. This may be the benefit of having Orochimaru, a scientist, as Hokage.

What's more interesting is that Konoha can see many ninjas and businessmen from other countries, which should be the new policy implemented by Orochimaru.

He, the Sandaime Hokage, has basically been forgotten by Konoha.

Now there is only one person supported by the entire Konoha, and that is Orochimaru!

At the same time, Tsunade and Jiraiya still followed Danzo's old path and joined the Government Affairs Department. Otherwise, when the two people wanted to manage the village, they would always be in trouble.

The family that supports Orochimaru the most is the Uchiha clan.

Now on the streets of Konoha, the proud Uchiha clan can be seen everywhere. They have completely integrated into Konoha, and most of the Uchiha have moved out of the clan and bought houses in the central area of ​​Konoha.

Housing prices in Konoha are not cheap, and only wealthy people like the Uchiha clan can afford them.

Konoha's housing prices have soared, mainly because Orochimaru has opened up to the outside world. As long as they have proof of identity and are not wanted criminals with bounties from various countries, they can come to Konoha to work and settle down.

This attracted a large number of businessmen and ninjas who had not committed any major crimes.

Other ninja villages were generally clandestine and secretive, and scorned Konoha's choice to open up.

Now Konoha's continued soaring housing prices are making everyone jealous.

Even Orochimaru is a little worried. Although he doesn't know what a real estate bubble is, the price of all the real estate in Konoha Ninja Village can definitely buy a small country!

However, it is also true that Konoha's economy is becoming more and more prosperous.

These problems can be solved as long as we wait for the right time and launch a war abroad.

Arriving at the Hokage Building, the first person Sarutobi Hiruzen saw was Qingming.

When Qingming saw Sarutobi Hiruzen, his eyes lit up and he rushed over.

"Master Hiruzen, I had such a hard time looking for you!"

Qingming spent an inhumane time in Orochimaru's laboratory. Orochimaru took Itachi and Kabuto over and over for research, and even placed multiple seals on him.

After he started developing and manufacturing ninja tools for Konoha, his treatment became much better and he began to be respected by others.

The chakra armor he made was a hot commodity, but Orochimaru prohibited him from making offensive ninja tools.

The reason is also very simple. Those offensive ninja tools are indeed good, but they are also easy to become dependent on. The more fancy the ninja tools are, the greater the impact.

Just like the dragon eye telescopic sword, you only need to hold it and inject chakra. Doesn't it require hands?

Look at Kakashi, he has already killed seven in and out of the ninja world with the reforged White Fang, and is known as Konoha's Little White Fang.

Moreover, the forging of these ninja tools is complicated, and chakra armor has the best sales and is very profitable.

"Master Hiruzen, let me see that sword!"

Zanxing is right behind Sarutobi Hiruzen. In addition to training in the past six months, he has been refining this sword.

The current Zhanxing has left his mark. After entering the foundation building stage, he can put Zhanxing into his body.

It is impossible for outsiders to use this sword. As long as they are in Konoha, no matter where Zanxing is placed, Sarutobi Hiruzen can wave it.

He took the Zhanxing from his back and handed it to Qingming.

Qingming looked at this sword with the eyes of a pilgrim. The forging technology was completely incomprehensible, and there was no chakra at all. It was like a product from another world!

"Okay, let's take a look at it later when we have time. I still have something to do with Orochimaru."

Reluctantly, he returned the Zanxing to Sarutobi Hiruzen. Qingming wiped his saliva greedily. If the sword was forged by him, it would be worth dying now!

Arriving at the Hokage's office, the three apprentices and Nara Shikaku were there.

"Teacher, why are you free today?"

Jiraiya was a little strange. For the past six months, Sarutobi Hiruzen had been training in the wooden house. The three of them were so busy formulating plans for Konoha and the country that they almost forgot about Sarutobi Hiruzen.

This old guy really knows how to enjoy himself, leaving all the dirty work to the three of them!

"Ask about your situation and go to Shigu Forest again."

Tsunade raised her head when she heard Shigulin.

"The village has been developing rapidly recently, attracting many foreign ninjas and businessmen, but the Fire Nation has become more and more dissatisfied with us."

Orochimaru began to explain the development of Konoha to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

As long as we wait about ten years or so for Konoha's new generation to fully grow up, Konoha's strength will be unprecedentedly powerful!

Even now, Konoha can directly wage war against the Kingdom of Water and is completely sure of defeating Kirigakure Village.

But in this case, we will have to face the persecution of other ninja villages and the threat of the country's daimyo.

Orochimaru believes that in order to unify the ninja world, it is necessary to win the name of the Land of Fire!

In this feudal ninja world, only Orochimaru can say such treacherous words.
