Escape From Konoha

Time flies, time flies.

Konoha is 32 years old.

It's just beginning of summer, and the climate is relatively warm, but not too hot.

This day is a special day--

The day the heroes return!

Of course, the war was not completely over.

The returning heroes are only the seriously wounded personnel on the front line, and they will no longer be able to survive as ninjas in the future.

On the battlefield, they have become a burden to their colleagues. They must be escorted back to Konoha from the front line, and they can only spend the rest of their lives in the village.

Along with the large number of wounded, there are also the dead bodies of the ninjas who have been buried in the earth forever.

Therefore, in this comfortable day, some people are silent, some people cry, and some may have tears in their eyes, but they are definitely not the kind of tears of joy.

Although there was no order, the Konoha people and the ninja had already organized a solemn ceremony to welcome the heroes back.

But the adults waiting for the return of the heroes remained mournful and silent. The lively and active children in the past did not know what happened and did not dare to speak indiscriminately. They just stood silently in the sad atmosphere.

War is never a good thing.

——Shiraishi's house.

Shiraishi wasn't very interested in meeting those so-called heroes.

He had no relatives in the war, so there was no need to welcome heroes.

However, Shiraishi knew that Liuli would go to greet her. As a member of the Uchiha clan, she was obliged to greet the clansmen who returned from the war.

If Liuli was alone, Baishi felt that he would meet Liuli and greet him at the entrance of the village.

But there must be a lot of Uchiha people around Liuli, if he followed him, it would always feel inappropriate.

Out of this consideration, Baishi felt that he should stay at home honestly, after all he still had a lot of experiments to do.

Two years have passed, and Shiraishi has not only learned all kinds of medical ninjutsu in the medical ninjutsu scroll that Liuli gave him by himself, but also mastered them.

To put it bluntly, Shiraishi is very confident in his medical ninjutsu level.

In addition, his growth in other aspects has not fallen behind.

According to Liuli's assessment, he now has a strength equivalent to that of a Chunin.

A year ago, Liuli passed the strict selection of the clan's jounin, and possessed the strength of the Chunin level, and Shiraishi could compete with Liuli at 46 or 50, so it was naturally at the level of the Chunin level.

However, he has never exposed his true strength. In the eyes of others, he is still an ordinary student of the ninja school.

It belongs to the kind of existence that is extremely inconspicuous among the crowd.

He has also mastered a lot of ninjutsu, not to mention the three-body jutsu, palm fairy jutsu, healing art, hemostasis, chakra scalpel, these medical ninjutsu that are necessary for an excellent medical ninja are also mastered.

As long as he understands the essence of it, it is not difficult for Baishi to learn it.

What's more, he has a mature soul, far surpassing ordinary people in terms of self-control, and the time devoted to cultivation is about several times that of ordinary people.

In addition to normal rest and classes every day, the rest of the time is basically spent in cultivation.

It is also through untold hardships that the current results have been achieved.

Among the compartments of the house, this is a miniature laboratory specially distinguished by Shiraishi.

On the table were many decanters, test tubes, utensils, and Bunsen burners with red and blue flames flickering.

There are also some glass bottles containing a transparent solution, some rare plant specimens soaked in the solution, and some animal torso specimens, such as eyeballs, liver and other important organs.

Shiraishi skillfully took these tools and adjusted them in order to achieve the desired results.

The data was then recorded on a computer.

Speaking of it, Shiraishi felt quite surprised. He didn't expect that the ninja world, where the industry is not very developed, already had computers.

Although the current computer processing system in the ninja world has not yet reached a very high level in Shiraishi's view, it is better to have than to have nothing.

He is only good at fields such as chemistry, biology, and pharmacology. Although he also has an understanding of machinery and electronics, he is not proficient.

Shiraishi can't do things like self-produced computers, and professional things can only be handled by professional people.

And this computer with a low-level processing system in Shiraishi's opinion also cost Shiraishi a lot of money.

Scientific research is like a bottomless pit, which has been devouring Baishi's few assets in the past two years.

By now, Baishi's funds had bottomed out, so his research progress would naturally slow down.

He can collect raw materials by himself, but some sophisticated equipment and some more precious materials still require money to obtain.

Just when Baishi was worrying about this, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Shiraishi put down his work and went to open the door.

Sure enough, it was Liuli.

At the age of eight, she is a little taller than two years ago. Although she is still childish, her eyes are sharper and colder, giving people a feeling of inhumanity.

Although it's a bit ugly, Liuli is indeed a person who doesn't fit in very well.

She doesn't know how to accommodate others, nor does she know how to deal with interpersonal relationships, but she is very keen on things like becoming stronger.

Therefore, she is a hot-blooded and warlike person in her bones.

This may have something to do with the traditional personality of the Uchiha clan, who are usually very hot-blooded and warlike.

Baishi believed that if it wasn't for his true strength that made her look differently, it would have been difficult to even say a word.

It is precisely because both parties know a little about each other's secrets that Shiraishi thinks that he and Liuli are compatible partners.

"Is the welcome ceremony over so soon?"

Baishi led Liuli into the room, and asked out of curiosity.

According to Shiraishi's estimation, Liuli should spend one day cleaning up the dust for the returning heroes of the Uchiha clan.

"No, I just left early, but many people in the clan died, and some people can no longer live as ninjas."

Liuli seemed a little depressed.

"It's war after all."

Shiraishi sighed with emotion.

Death or disability in war is undoubtedly a very normal thing.

"Why didn't you go?"

Liuli asked Shiraishi this question.

"I have no family back from this war."

It was only then that Liuli remembered that Baishi's parents had died in the mission a long time ago.

"Feel sorry."

"It's okay, I don't care about this kind of thing, a person is just a little free."

Baishi smiled at Liuli, expressing his indifference, and walked towards the compartment in the house.

Liuli also followed Shiraishi into the compartment - Shiraishi's private research room.

Shiraishi did not hide this from Liuli about his research.

After all, what she did was not some shady and forbidden experiment, even if Liuli knew about it, she would not talk nonsense.

This kind of tacit understanding has been cultivated in the past two years.

Although she has not yet reached the highest level of "If you don't tell me, I already understand", Liuli is not a person who likes to ask questions.

It's like she knew Baishi's true strength, but she never thought of exposing him.

Baishi won't ask Liuli why he didn't expose him, and Liuli won't ask why Baishi hides his strength.

Even so, it will not affect the pure friendship between them.

This is the best tacit understanding.
