Water bears at the beginning, wet bone forest eating old people

One year passed in the blink of an eye.

Gu Zang gradually became familiar with his body nourished by Hashirama's cells.

The swallowing system cannot directly absorb and digest what it swallows, but it can eliminate those adverse factors or negative effects on the body.

Therefore, it was up to Kozo to slowly digest Hashirama's cells on his own.

In addition to the chakras of the three attributes of water, earth and yang, Gu Zang's vitality has also been greatly enhanced.

The most obvious thing is his insect body. Originally, its maximum body length could only reach twenty meters, but after devouring Hashirama's cells, its body length jumped to more than seventy meters, basically exceeding the body length of most tailed beasts.

However, Gu Zang has not tried the largest body shape yet. After all, it is not convenient to show his whole body in Konoha. With the old silver coin like Tobirama around, Gu Zang only thinks about how to keep a low profile.

It would be convenient to go back to the Wet Bone Forest, but there was no way that Gu Zang could go back to defeat the old woman. Not to mention seventy meters, he couldn't even beat her in a hundred meters.

Gu Zang has been staying in the Senju family and feels very safe. Although the Senju family has been disbanded, Senju Tobirama is still there, and the influence of the Senju family is still there. This place can be said to be one of the safest places in the ninja world, and the price is just a little loss of freedom.

Kozo is relieved, and Tobirama is also relieved. He can't let Kozo run around in Konoha, let alone let Kozo leave Konoha. After all, there are Hashirama cells in Kozo's body.

Tobirama had stopped researching the Kozun cells a long time ago because they had no research value. Even after fusing them with Hashirama's cells, the Kozun cells did not undergo any changes during the research.

In one year, Tsunade successfully graduated from the Ninja Academy, and the original little loli with suspenders turned into a little loli with short golden hair.

But Gu Zang was in a miserable situation. Although Tsunade was naughty when she was in school, she was relatively quiet in the Senju family. After graduating from school, she immediately released her nature, became loud, curious, and had extremely bad luck in gambling.

Uzumaki Mito could only smile and watch Tsunade turn the family property upside down. Tobirama was a man who never stayed at home. Princess Senju was in the village, and no one would disrespect her, so Tobirama was very relieved.

It was just dawn and Gu Zang was still lying on his own recliner with his eyes closed, resting.

Tsunade yelled and rushed into the house.

"Mr. Kozo! I'm joining the Ninja Team today!"

Gu Zang suddenly stood up from the recliner, startled, and then slowly lay down again.

"Oh, I see. I see."

Gu Zang raised his front paws, feeling very tired of being disturbed during his sleep, so he simply put them down.

Tsunade didn't care about anything and rushed to the recliner, grabbed Gu Zang and threw him over her shoulder, then rushed out of the house.

Gu Zang dazedly grabbed Tsunade's half-sleeve and asked, "What? Why did you bring me out?"

"Mr. Gu Zang, don't you want to come and see my teammates with me?"

Tsunade was very excited. Although Tobirama did not restrict her behavior, as the princess of Konoha, people in the village kept a certain distance from her. Few of her peers communicated with Tsunade, which caused her to always feel lonely.

When forming a team, teammates always need to communicate.

"Do not want to."

Tsunade paused and looked at Gu Zang on her shoulder angrily.

Kozo rolled over and met Tsunade's large, frowning eyes.

"Okay, okay, I also want to see who Tsunade's teammates are~"

"Hahaha, I knew Mr. Gu Zang would be curious!"

Tsunade immediately burst into laughter. Her big appearance was almost exactly like that of Hashirama Senju.

the other side.

In the clearing in the forest, a white-haired hedgehog and a black-haired non-mainstream were sitting on either side of a wooden stake.

The black-haired non-mainstream has long, smooth hair and a very fair face, but there is a circle of purple eyeshadow around his eyes, making him look like a drug addict. This person is Orochimaru.

Orochimaru sat quietly beside the wooden stake, waiting for the teacher he would be assigned after graduating from the Ninja School.

On the other side, Jiraiya, with his white hedgehog-haired head and red tear marks, could no longer sit still.

"What? We said we'd gather at this time, why hasn't the teacher come yet?"

Jiraiya jumped from one side of the wooden stake to Orochimaru's side like a monkey, and talked to Orochimaru in a familiar manner.

"Hey kid, what's your name? My name is Jiraiya, and I want to be Hokage Jiraiya!"

Orochimaru slowly turned his head and looked at the lively Jiraiya with a faint smile.

"(Fool) My name is Orochimaru."

"Big... Orochimaru, what a strange name~" Jiraiya scratched his head and turned around to see the voice coming from the entrance of the forest.

"That... that middle-aged uncle who looks so shabby, why is he wearing such a disgusting color as purple?! Is he our teacher!?"

"That's the jonin known as the master of ninjutsu, Sarutobi Hiruzen. He's a very powerful ninja."

Orochimaru corrected Jiraiya unhappily, but he was looking forward to it.

Orochimaru was extremely intelligent since he was a child. He naturally knew how lucky he was as a civilian ninja to have a ninja like Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was so powerful and had a deep background, as his instructor.

"Hey~ You two little guys, you came early~"

Hiruzen walked into the clearing with a smile, but before he could say anything, he suddenly dodged.

"Uncle Sarutobi, take my kick!"

Jiraiya was not happy with Hiruzen's lateness, so he kicked him while Hiruzen was speaking.

Unexpectedly, Hiruzen's ninja qualities were not fake. He dodged Jiraiya's flying kick with a light flash and grabbed his ankle.

"You kid, you should be more polite to your teachers!"

Chirp——

Jiraiya was thrown back to the ground by Hiruzen. His butt hurt so much that he rubbed it repeatedly.

"Wait a moment, we have another companion on the way."

Hiruzen threw Jiraiya to the ground, feeling refreshed, and crossed his arms.

"What? The teacher is late, and the students are late too. Is our team really reliable?"

Jiraiya muttered.

"I'm sorry I'm late!"

Just as Jiraiya was complaining, a clear child's voice came from a distance, followed by smoke and dust, and Tsunade rushed in front of the three people.

"Sorry sorry!"

Tsunade put one hand on her hip and smiled innocently, looking lively and cute. Jiraiya immediately changed his attitude.

"Tsunade-hime...Tsunade-hime!"

Jiraiya felt like he was in love. After thinking about it for a second, he rushed to Tsunade at a speed faster than the one he had just kicked at Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Nice to meet you! My name is Jiraiya, please take care of me!"

Jiraiya pointed his thumb at himself and said seriously, then without waiting for Tsunade's response, he lowered his head, leaned in front of Tsunade and whispered something.

"Just give me the love letter later."

"what--"

Tsunade punched Jiraiya and sent him flying.

Orochimaru watched the whole farce quietly beside the wooden stake, and only twitched his mouth when Jiraiya was knocked away.

He felt that what Jiraiya said made sense.

Is this team really reliable?
