Chapter 282: Book Of Seals
Yakushi Nonou was currently looking at the orphanage’s ledger.
The orphanage had many trivial tasks, and financial issues such as income and expenses were a very important aspect.
Yakushi Nonou suddenly stopped her actions, as someone appeared in the window using the Body Flicker Technique.
It’s Fox.
Yoru embraced Yakushi Nonou’s waist from behind.
Feeling the strong hand on her lower abdomen, Yakushi Nonou’s eyes flickered slightly, knowing what Fox was thinking.
“Fox, are you checking if I’m pregnant?”
“Is it that obvious?”
“Why do this suddenly? Did you discover some woman pregnant today?”
Yoru thought to himself, Qiao Yi and Purple Cat are so naive, but Yakushi Nonou instantly understood what Yoru was worried about.
Yakushi Nonou said: “Sorry, Fox, I won’t have children. The orphanage’s children are my children.”
Yoru said: “Should I feel regretful or sympathetic right now?”
Yakushi Nonou pushed Fox onto the narrow bed: “I’m somewhat sorry to you. I’ll make it up to you properly tonight.”
Yoru thought to himself, it’s not that sorry, actually. It’s fine, even a bit fortunate.
One more concern means one more weakness.
He needed to get promoted to Anbu Vice Minister as soon as possible; the power of an Anbu Captain was still too small.
After compensating Yoru, Yakushi Nonou handed him a scroll.
Yoru opened the scroll and found it was… a Contraceptive Ninjutsu Scroll?
Oh, so this way, women won’t get pregnant?
Ah… ninjutsu is too comprehensive.
Time passed day by day.
Yoru waited until the New Year, Konoha
The war had become a memory from two years ago, Konoha Village was peaceful and warm, and the pedestrians on the road were very relaxed.
Around the New Year, even Root had quieted down.
After Uchiha Madara killed 5 people in Root, they temporarily stopped assigning code names to new recruits and focused on seriously training them.
Danzo was so honest this month that Yoru felt a bit unaccustomed.
Why wasn’t he stirring things up?
Yoru observed the Hokage Building from different angles every night.
The evening of the thirteenth day of the first month.
Land of Rain.
Inside the tree hollow outside the Uzumaki Hideout, Yoru stood up, putting on his clothes.
Yoru said: “If only I could use Wood Style, look at this wooden bed, you shook it until it broke.”
Yuka was limp on the bed, her fair arm softly draped over Yoru’s leg.
“Was it just me who shook it? Why didn’t you go easier!”
Yuka’s endurance was astonishing; the Uzumaki Clan and Senju Clan were indeed a perfect match, able to bring out all of Yoru’s strength.
Yuka said she didn’t know what sealing barrier the Second Hokage had set up in the Hokage Building.
No matter how much he tormented her, Yuka wouldn’t say; her little mouth was tight, probably she really didn’t know.
“Fox, your physique is getting better and better. Maybe you can master your Senju Clan’s Wood Style like Lord Hashirama.”
“That would be great.”
After kissing Yuka, Yoru used Reverse Summoning to disappear.
He returned to Konoha Village, using the Mayfly Technique to appear on a wooden balcony, looking at the distant Hokage Building.
Tomorrow night, he would try going to the Hokage Building.
Dying for the Scroll of Seals would be the most valuable way to die, right?
The next day at midnight, Yoru stood on the Hokage Rock, looking down at the Hokage Building below.
The Hokage Building was a circular three-story structure.
The first floor had a ring of wooden pillars, and at the junction of the first and second floors, there was another ring of wooden eaves.
These woods were all organic matter, so Yoru could directly infiltrate the Hokage Building’s second floor using the Mayfly Technique.
From the second floor to the third floor’s Hokage’s Office, he couldn’t use the Mayfly Technique.
The Mayfly Technique was very strong, but it required moving through organic matter.
Yoru slowly retreated, leaving the stone of the Hokage Rock and entering the grass.
His figure quickly disappeared, sinking into the ground.
Just seconds later, Yoru had appeared under the Hokage Building.
He quickly climbed up along the pillar, infiltrating into the wooden eaves of the first floor.
Moving through the circular eaves, Yoru went around to the back of the Hokage Building.
Among the several big trees at the back, two Anbu Squads were hiding; he didn’t know if it was the Kuroari Squad or the Golden Eagle Squad today.
He circled to the side of the Hokage Building.
This place was only one floor away from the Hokage’s Office, a distance of over 3 meters.
The office’s lights were off; the Third Hokage was not in the office.
Yoru’s figure emerged from the eaves.
The moment he appeared, the Hokage Building instantly lit up with the glow of a barrier!
Was this the barrier set by the Second Hokage? The reaction was so quick.
The nearby Anbu were startled; leaves flew under the tree crowns as seven or eight people jumped out from the treetops, rushing toward the Hokage Building.
The Anbu inside the building emerged from corners one after another, rushing toward the third floor’s Hokage’s Office.
Yoru crashed through the window of the Hokage’s Office.
He landed a step faster than the glass shards, rushing toward the partition on the side.
The partition on the east side of the Hokage’s Office was the place specially storing various top-secret scrolls and the Scroll of Seals.
Yoru crashed open the door and saw the large Scroll of Seals placed on the stand.
He took a step forward, reaching out to grab the Scroll of Seals.
Scroll of Seals, I’m here. Even if you just let me glance at it?
After resurrection, the memory would be brought back; with this one glance, should he look at the Flying Thunder God Technique or the Reanimation Jutsu?
Could he be extravagant and look at both?
When he was only 30 centimeters from the Scroll of Seals, sealing runes suddenly lit up around the stand holding the Scroll of Seals.
A barrier similar to the Four Violet Flames Formation appeared around the Scroll of Seals.
Yoru’s hand collided with the barrier; even though Bronze Light appeared immediately, it was still burned, with black smoke rising from his fingers and palm.
This barrier’s sealed chakra amount was abnormally massive.
This amount of chakra must be maintained regularly by the Third Hokage.
Yoru hurriedly switched to the other hand, with the secret jutsu Ring Snake appearing in its palm.
The condensed Water Style chakra collided with the barrier, consuming the energy of the Four Violet Flames Formation-like barrier.
The room instantly filled with a large amount of water mist.
Yoru’s eyes darkened.
The Scroll of Seals’ barrier was ridiculously strong.
At that moment, Yoru couldn’t move.
The shadow under his feet darkened in color; he had been hit by Kuroari’s Shadow Binding Technique.
As one of the top experts of the Nara Clan, Yoru couldn’t break free from this technique in a short time.
Not only that, an iron rod poked in through the window into the Hokage’s Office, accurately smashing into Yoru’s back.
Adamantine Staff!
Hiruzen Sarutobi didn’t know where he was, but the infinitely extending Adamantine Staff arrived first!
Yoru was pushed by the Adamantine Staff, crashing hard into the Scroll of Seals’ barrier.
Failure…
He dispelled the secret jutsu Bronze Light, letting the barrier and Adamantine Staff pincer attack from front and back, crushing his chest.
The Third Hokage appeared in the Hokage’s Office using Body Flicker.
The middle-aged Third Hokage’s Body Flicker Technique and taijutsu were so strong; he had just been at the Sarutobi Clan Compound, and now he had Body Flickered to the Hokage Building.
Hiruzen Sarutobi was the ceiling for attribute ninjas; Five Release Ninjutsu came effortlessly, and against large enemies, he had the Adamantine Staff.
At this time, Hiruzen Sarutobi was in his forties, at his peak.
Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the corpse beside the Scroll of Seals, furious in his heart, not knowing which thief dared to steal the Scroll of Seals.
He smashed the mask with one strike of the staff, and Hiruzen Sarutobi was shocked; it was… Fox?
