Chapter 328 Return
When Xia Li entered the ward, she saw Yamanaka Haiyi sitting in front of the hospital bed accompanying Mrs. Yamanaka.
Madam Yamanaka was also very weak at this time, but the people in this world were indeed in good health. Madam Yamanaka had already sat up against the hospital bed and was holding the child there as if she couldn't get enough of it.
"Xia Li is here, come and see Igawa." Madam Yamanaka greeted Xia Li and showed off her child.
"Is your name Yamanaka Ikawa?" Xia Li asked while looking at Yamanaka Ikawa who was already asleep.
Yamanaka Igawa's sparse fetal hair meant that the other person's hair color was the same light blond as Ino, and his eyebrows were somewhat similar to Yamanaka Haiichi's.
It seems that there is really no need to doubt the bloodline of Yamanaka Igawa. If we put it into the network environment of the previous life, the child born may not necessarily be the original owner...
Moreover, when Xia Li looked at the newborn Yamanaka Igawa, he had actually seen the newborn Naruto, and they all looked quite cute.
It's not like the newborn baby in the previous life actually didn't grow at all, just like a monkey.
But this is indeed the case. Otherwise, how could Itachi Uchiha be able to go on the battlefield at the age of 4? No matter how mature he is, he still needs supporting physical conditions. It can only be said that the body in this world is very different from the body in the previous life.
"Yes." Yamanaka Haiichi replied from the side, the smile on his face never broke. If Mrs. Yamanaka hadn't given it to him, he would have wanted to hold his son and show off to his old friends.
It is indeed not easy to have children when you are old, and it is easier to spoil them.
As for this name, Yamanaka Haiichi and his wife had already discussed it.
In fact, they originally wanted to name their child Yamanaka Jingli. They also hoped that their child could be as outstanding as Xia Li, but they gave up in the end. After all, it would be too obvious, and Xia Li is still their child. son in law.
Although their child was just born, he was actually of the same generation as Xia Li, so they gave up and chose another name, but they still chose a suitable name from the three characters Shen Dao Chuan.
Yamanaka Haiichi and his wife also have high expectations for this son.
After chatting for a while, Xia Li left. After all, Mrs. Yamanaka was still very weak and needed more rest, so it was not suitable for him to stay for long. He just came in to take a look.
When Xia Li left, Ino followed.
"Aren't you going to stay and take care of your mother-in-law?" Xia Li couldn't help but ask after seeing Ino following her.
"My father is there, and I wanted to hug my brother before. They all thought I was clumsy and they were afraid that I would fall and my brother wouldn't let me hug him, so it was useless for me to stay there." Ino complained as she stuck out her tongue after hearing this. .
Xia Li smiled. Ino felt disgusted. He raised his eyebrows and said, "It seems that your family status is not guaranteed."
"Hmph, it's impossible. When the younger brother grows up, he will know what the majesty of an eldest sister is." Ino snorted, waved her fist, and she couldn't help but laugh as she spoke.
It seemed that Ino really didn't mind the sudden addition of a younger brother.
"Well, how about we both want one?" Xia Li suddenly said.
"Ah?" Ino didn't react, and when he did, he wasn't shy. He rolled his eyes at Xia Li and said, "We're not married yet."
"Yes." Xia Li nodded and calculated the time. They were both seventeen years old and had to wait another year according to their engagement.
However, according to Xia Li's observation, both he and most of the Twelve Xiaoqiang are actually fully developed, so their physiological functions are already complete.
So, marriage can wait, but other things...
Of course, we still have to be careful not to cause life problems...
"Ino, do you want to participate in the Five Kage Conference?" Xia Li suddenly asked. After all, there is no news about Sasuke, and he probably won't be able to come back, so it would be good to give this position to Ino. As a couple, the work is not tiring. .
"The Five Shadows Conference..." Ino was actually a little moved. After all, this kind of thing is too rare. If you miss this time, you don't know when the next one will be held. But in the end, Ino shook his head and said.
"I still won't participate. After all, my father will continue to work, and my mother has just given birth to my younger brother, who also needs someone to take care of me. I won't feel at ease if others come."
"Okay." Xia Li also nodded.
"Xia Li, when are you leaving?" Ino asked. Although she couldn't go with Xia Li, she could still see Xia Li off when she was leaving.
"Probably today." Xia Li said after thinking for a while. Originally, he was thinking of using the Flying Thunder God to rush to the Kingdom of Iron directly if it was later. But now it seems that there is no need for it. He can be on time if he hurries a little further. When you arrive, you can also enjoy the scenery along the way.
"Huh?" Ino was a little surprised and immediately understood that Xia Li was probably delaying going there because of her affairs.
Xia Li rubbed Ino's little head but didn't say much.
"Xia Li..." Ino looked at Xia Li, his eyes a little blurry.
"Huh?" After Xia Li asked, Ino had already rushed into his arms.
Xia Li felt the warmth coming from her lips, her eyes flashed slightly, and she hugged Ino. This was not the first time.
After a long time, Ino lay in Xia Li's arms with a flushed face, but still had no intention of leaving.
"Have a nice trip," Ino said.
"Of course, others don't know, don't you know my strength?" Xia Li smiled.
"Well, I really don't know." After thinking for a while, Ino suddenly said that Xia Li's strength has long been beyond her understanding, and Xia Li doesn't often take action. She really doesn't know that Xia Li has the power at this time. How strong.
Xia Li froze, it seemed so, he was getting stronger every day, and Konoha's strength generally did not require the Hokage to solve most problems, which also led to him not needing to take action most of the time. Show your strength.
The only time he showed his power in the Otsutsukiura style recently, there were no people around, and because of the identities of young Sasuke and Boruto, it was not easy for other people to know.
Therefore, except for Naruto and Sasuke, people in Konoha probably don't know much about the specific extent of his strength...
Seeing Xia Li like this, Ino smiled and said, "Okay, I know my husband is the strongest, but I still have to be careful and don't be careless."
"Okay." Xia Li smiled, hugging Ino and burying her head in Ino's hair, feeling the other person's body temperature.
Soon, the two separated. After Ino arranged Xia Li's clothes, Xia Li nodded to Ino and then disappeared in front of Ino.
Ino looked at the disappearing Xia Li and sighed at this time. A trace of sadness flashed in her eyes. The gap in strength was still too big. She could hardly help the other party and could only try not to cause trouble to the other party.
However, why doesn't Ino want to be able to help Xia Li in other ways?
Then, Ino turned around and walked back to the hospital.
…………
At this moment, Xia Li had already sat back in the Hokage's office, waiting for the arrival of Naruto and Kakashi.
Nara Shikaku had already gone to inform Naruto and Kakashi.
Xia Li leaned on the chair, recalling the feeling just now, and felt warm in her heart. To be honest, she really wanted to execute Ino on the spot.
It is a pity that he is still in the state of the spiritual shadow clone. Of course, because of the special nature of the spiritual shadow clone, the spiritual shadow clone and the original body are connected in every aspect, including thinking and feeling.
Therefore, there is no saying that the spiritual shadow clone has turned the main body green. However, Xia Li still feels that the main body should come at least for the first time, and...
The most important thing is that I am still practicing. Even if Xia Li has the ability to multitask, it is not used in this aspect. At this moment, Xia Li sensed a huge chakra approaching the Hokage's office.
"This is..." Xia Li's eyes suddenly lit up, because this chakra did not belong to Naruto, but to another person. The most important thing was that this chakra seemed a little different from usual.
Soon, a figure jumped in from the window of the Hokage's office.
"You came back just in time." Xia Li said to the figure that suddenly appeared.
At the same time, Xia Li was also looking at the figure that suddenly appeared. He had two horns on his head, purple eyeshadow and snake-like eyes. In addition, the other person's body was very neat, and there were no snake scales or anything like that. .
At this time, the person who appeared in front of Xia Li was Sasuke, who had completely mastered the Ryūchi Cave Sage Mode.
"Xia Li, I heard the White Snake Sage say that you have something to do with me?" Sasuke asked. He had just completed the Sage Mode, but before he could adapt to the power of the Sage Mode, he heard the White Snake Sage say that Xia Li had something to do with him.
Therefore, Sasuke maintained this state and returned to Konoha.
"Don't worry, how are you mastering your eyes and sage mode?" Xia Li asked, he was still very curious about Sasuke's strength.
Sasuke didn't mean to hide what he said, and after thinking for a while, he said it directly.
"My eyes have completely recovered a few days ago, and my eye strength has also improved a lot. Although it is still a little short of a complete Susanoo, it should be almost there." Sasuke thought about the young Sasuke's mustache. Zuonenghu, then said.
"Is that so? The progress is quite big." Xia Li was a little surprised. This progress is not small.
"Well, I think so, but this progress is not only due to Itachi's eye power, but also to the first-generation eye cells. It seems to fit my body very well." Sasuke said, feeling the extra power in his body. In fact, He himself was a little surprised.
"Yes." Xia Li nodded. After all, it is all the power of the Six Paths Immortal. It is just one body divided into two paths. It is normal for them to fit in with each other.
"As for the immortal mode, that's my current state. Because you had something to ask me for, I rushed back before I had time to feel it carefully. However, it is definitely very strong."
Saying that, Sasuke clenched his fist and felt the power of Sage Mode. He was a little surprised by the incomplete Sage Mode in the past.
Now, the complete Sage Mode has undergone a new qualitative change, and Sasuke feels that his Susanoo can definitely become stronger due to the Sage Mode.
Xia Li did not doubt how powerful Sasuke was now. As the representative of the power of the three holy places, the sage mode of Ryūchi Cave was indeed more powerful than the other two.
Moreover, Sasuke doesn't know, but Xia Li knows that Sasuke in the original book has a cursed version of Susanoo, but in that state, Susanoo needs to rely on Jugo's power, and he can't use it when Jugo is gone. .
But now, Sasuke can use the Sage Mode alone. Although the time to enter the Sage Mode will be shorter with Jugo's cooperation, the difference between what is necessary and what is not necessary is very big.
And since there is a cursed version of Susanoo, it stands to reason that there should also be a further sage mode version of Susanoo.
He has a perfect sage mode and can use Susanoo. It seems that Sasuke is the only one now.
As for Uchiha Madara, although he used senjutsu in the original work, Uchiha Madara's senjutsu simply relied on the senjutsu chakra absorbed from Hashirama, and he himself did not know the sage mode.
As for the Six Paths Immortal, he definitely knows how to do it, but the other party probably doesn't bother to use this level of power.
"Can't your appearance change back?" Xia Li looked at the horns on Sasuke's head. In fact, he wanted to touch it, but unfortunately Sasuke has grown up now and may not be willing.
However, Xia Li felt that Sasuke's appearance would not be affected at all if he came back unchanged, and perhaps he became much more mysterious because of the pair of horns and purple eye shadow.
"It should be okay." Sasuke said and closed his eyes. Soon, he exited the sage mode, and his eye shadow and the horns on his head disappeared, returning to his previous appearance.
Xia Li nodded. Sasuke should have a deeper grasp of Sage Mode than Kabuto Yakushi, but this is natural. After all, Sasuke has already experienced the power of Sage Mode, but Kabuto Yakushi probably doesn't have the opportunity to experience it.
"Well done." Xia Li also praised.
Sasuke didn't reply, but he also smiled. It was obvious that he was very satisfied with the gains this time. It can be said that his progress was greater than he imagined.
"In this case, can we catch up with Naruto?" Sasuke was thinking.
Xia Li also told Sasuke about the Five Shadows meeting at this time.
"Is it because you haven't rushed to the Five Shadows Conference yet because you have been waiting for me to come back?" Sasuke asked suddenly. He heard that the start time of the Five Shadows Conference was probably only within the past two days.
According to this distance, Xia Li should have set off long ago, but as a result, he has been delayed until now. It would be unreasonable if he was not waiting for him.
Moreover, Sasuke could also see the significance of taking him and Naruto to the Five Shadows Conference this time.
So, does Xia Li think more highly of him than Naruto becoming Hokage?
At this moment, Sasuke felt a little moved and a little excited.
"Well, probably..." Xia Li replied vaguely, and he also understood that Sasuke might have misunderstood.
Xia Li waited so long not for Sasuke, but for Ino, but...since it was a good misunderstanding, let it continue like this. No one would tell the truth anyway.
After all, the only people who knew were Xia Li, Nara Shikaku, and the ANBU. Although Sasuke was the ANBU captain, the ANBU member would not tell Sasuke such a trivial matter.
As for Nara Shikaku, he naturally won’t say much.
At this time, Nara Shikaku also brought Kakashi and Naruto to the Hokage's office.
As soon as Nara Shikaku opened the door, he immediately said, "Hokage-sama, Kakashi and Naruto have arrived."
Saying that, Nara Shikakuya saw Sasuke standing there and was startled.
Then, Kakashi, who followed, naturally saw this scene, and then he smiled and said, "It seems that I don't need to follow you anymore."
Kakashi looked at Sasuke, then at Naruto, and sighed. The two were completely different in terms of tasks. Although Naruto had almost invincible power, he still struggled during these tasks. The constant troubles gave Kakashi a headache.
Before Sasuke entered ANBU, he followed Kakashi on missions, so Kakashi would unconsciously compare the two people, and the result of the comparison was a bit cruel. In terms of doing missions, even Sasuke was better than Sasuke before. Naruto is much more efficient now.
"Sasuke, you're back!" Naruto's eyes lit up when he saw Sasuke.
"Yeah." Sasuke looked at Naruto's surprised smile and had no other thoughts at all because he was Hokage's competitor.
Sasuke slowly smiled. He felt that no matter which of them became Hokage in the end, they would not lose an important friend. Sasuke felt that this was good.
"Now that everyone is here, let's go without further ado. Let's set off now. Naruto, Sasuke, you will be my guards for this Five Shadows Conference." Xia Li also said directly at this time.
"Yes!" Naruto and Sasuke said at the same time.
Nara Shikaku actually wanted to roll his eyes when he heard this. So you also know that 'nothing can be done without further delay'? How long has it been postponed?
However, Nara Shikaku just thought about it in his heart, still smiling on the surface, while Kakashi was thinking about what he should do during this time since he did not have to participate in the Five Kage Talks. ?
Recalling the experience during this mission, Kakashi also sighed. Sure enough, he still wanted to express that he couldn't always let Shizune, the woman, chase him, right?
Although it is still early to get married, it is time to make the final decision.
"Shikaku, after I leave, Naruto's affairs will continue to be handled by you. You can also continue to call Shikamaru over to help you." Xia Li continued to make arrangements at this time.
"Okay." Nara Shikaku nodded. He was used to it anyway, so it didn't matter.
