Chapter 96 Mikoto's Question.

Although Tsunade was a little tipsy, she still had her basic sanity. She looked at the shed built by Nawaki and waited for her brother's explanation.

Nawaki once again introduced his abilities to Tsunade with a proud look on his face, and then waited proudly for his sister's praise.

Tsunade was also frightened by Rope Tree's move. According to Rope Tree, the healing ability of his vines is even better than that of his own slug. If this appeared on the battlefield, it could change the situation in an instant!
For a moment, tears flashed in Tsunade's eyes.

"My stupid brother, he finally has something to show for himself!"

At this time, Minato, who looked lost, suddenly said: "Your vines can transmit life force, so they should be able to absorb life force, right?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes fixed!
Yes, since it can give vitality, then extracting vitality should be easy too, right?
Nawaki was also stunned. He had never thought about this before. Now that Minato reminded him, Nawaki's mind suddenly became clear. He clapped his hands and said in shock, "So I am Big C?"

Regarding this situation, several people could only roll their eyes at him.

But they all realized how powerful Sheng Shu was. Zhang Shan brought a little white mouse to Sheng Shu and asked him to use his vines to devour the mouse's vitality.

Rope Tree did as he was told, and a vine appeared and wrapped around the little white mouse. With a thought, he controlled the vine and began to absorb the little white mouse's vitality.

The little white mouse, which was originally lively and energetic, became shriveled at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the end, not even a complete corpse was left. It turned into ashes and dissipated between heaven and earth.

"Disappeared?" Zhang Shan's eyelids twitched violently. He was also shocked by Sheng Shu's move!
Instantly draining the life force from a living being, this is an ability that only the sacred tree in the original novel has, right? Now, this fool named Sheng Shu has obtained it?

"Although I had some doubts just now, I can now be sure that Rope Tree's Wood Release is very orthodox. Like Hashirama, it is an ability that comes from the sacred tree. It's just that this guy was contaminated by Jiraiya before, which caused his awakened Wood Release to be very evil!"

Tsunade was also shocked at this moment, and looked at her younger brother with an expression full of disbelief.

If the previous wet nurse was already a strategic move, then the current ability to absorb other people's vitality is enough for Konoha to completely crush several other countries and once again become the most powerful country in the world!
Thinking of this, Tsunade's expression became serious, and she said to Nawase: "Nawase, restore this place, and then come with me to see the Hokage!"

Nawaki was overjoyed. After being a ninja for so long, he finally felt that he was valued!

In an instant, the awning that blocked the sun for everyone withered and disappeared. After Nawase used Wood Release to restore Zhang Shan's yard, he happily left with Tsunade.

Zhang Shan and the others were left staring at each other. Xiao Guang said speechlessly, "Everything has to be reported to the Hokage. Can't the Hokage keep an eye on Konoha's every move and come over to check on anything that happens at any time?"

Hearing Xiaoguang's dissatisfaction, Zhang Shan couldn't help but think of the seventh Hokage Naruto in his mind. He used countless shadow clones to pay attention to everything in Konoha at all times and help anyone at any time.

It's just that he's not very smart. He helps others all day long but neglects his own family, which makes him a little rebellious and even full of resentment towards the position of Hokage.

However, the pineapple-head guy that Zhang Shan met last time didn’t seem to hate the Hokage very much?

It seems that a lot of changes have taken place in the future because of my own reasons.

Of course, the only good news that this incident could convey to Zhang Shan was that he was sure that there was no parallel world on his side, and there was only one timeline from beginning to end.

After Nawaki left, Minato and Kushina stayed here. Minato said to Zhang Shan: "Zhang Shan, are you going to go on a mission? I plan to do some B-level missions to make money."

"B-level task..." Zhang Shan thought about it in his mind before he found the difficulty level of the B-level task.

I just help the client fight bandits and such. Even if I encounter wandering ninjas, they are weak Genin and Chunin. The reward for the mission is just so-so, not as good as my monthly dividends.

So Zhang Shan refused without thinking.

Minato felt helpless, he was clearly a team of four, but every time he went on a mission, he was always alone. Although he didn't have to split the rewards with his teammates, it was really boring.

After seeing off Minato and the other two, Zhang Shan looked at Mikoto who was still sitting on the lawn and asked in confusion, "Aren't you leaving yet?"

"Is this an order to evict me?" Mikoto said with a smile, her expression unchanged.

Zhang Shan shook his head: "That's not the case."

He thought Mikoto and Xiaoguang were going to whisper something, and when he turned around to leave, Mikoto asked again: "Zhang Shan, have you ever studied the bloodline of the Uchiha clan?"

Zhang Shan was slightly startled by the sudden inquiry, and he muttered to himself: "Why would Mikoto suddenly ask me this? Did she discover something?"

Although he was a little confused, Zhang Shan was determined. He turned around and said calmly, "The Uchiha bloodline... I'm very interested. Why, Mikoto-chan, do you want to help me?"

Looking at Zhang Shan, Mikoto even wanted to open her Sharingan to interrogate him at close range... and observe him.

Sighing, Mikoto decided to ask directly, "Zhang Shan, on the day I met Kushina, I was hit by a club. Do you have any clues?"

"I don't know. I do research in the laboratory every day and seldom go out. How would I know about such things?" Zhang Shan shrugged. He would never admit that he had knocked Mikoto unconscious, especially in front of her!

Staring at Zhang Shan with her big dark eyes for a few minutes, Mikoto sighed helplessly: "Okay, maybe I really am overthinking it."

After saying that, Mikoto stood up and walked away with her long legs.

Although she said so, Mikoto was 100% sure in her heart that it was Zhang Shan who hit her!

However, she had no evidence to support her guess.

After Mikoto left, Xiaoguang poked Zhang Shan with his elbow and asked quietly, "Did you really do this?"

Zhang Shan shook his head decisively: "How could I do such an outrageous thing!"

Xiaoguang rolled his eyes. He knew very well what kind of person Zhang Shan was. If he really didn't do it, Zhang Shan would definitely tease Mikoto with a playful look on his face and ask her if she wanted him to help find that daring guy!

At this time, Zhang Shan had a righteous look on his face, as if he could not tolerate evil. It was obvious that this guy was covering up the truth!

"What is the ability of your kaleidoscope?" Xiaoguang asked.

Seeing this, Zhang Shan sighed. He knew that it was impossible for him to deceive Xiao Guang, but Xiao Guang was still urging him, "Tell me now! Really, you actually hid it from me for so long!"
