Chapter 199

*

Having dealt with Sakura, Shikamaru immediately teleported several kilometers from the Land of Waves. He instantly found himself deep underground in a remote forest region.

Folding a row of hand seals, Shikamaru pulled out a scroll and leaned it against a steel wall dotted with many golden fuin.

Darkness covered everything, but the fuyin symbols on the doors illuminated a small underground area. She herself represented a small cubic space with stone walls, as well as a small pedestal with a mass of fuin symbols. If you look closely, you can see the unique fuyin teleportation structure in it. Shikamaru researched the Flying Thunder God technique for a long time and easily rearranged the entire chain of fuin symbols to suit his needs. He was not going to rely too much on this Jutsu in battle, but in the need of long-distance movement, he definitely wanted to use it. Therefore, he was able to increase distances, as well as orientation in space. Simply put, this fuyin structure on the floor allowed him to move not directly towards it, but rather to choose a certain, predetermined radius. Since Shikamaru, in fact, created as many as four, placing them in a square formation. You cannot use this in battle, but for point teleportation it is quite. Thanks to this "altar of teleportation, Shikamaru could move anywhere within the radius of the cubic teleportation barrier, and also use it as a point of communication for his own teleportations for kilometers." In fact, it was not he who invented it, rather, such a technology had been available for a long time to Uzumaki, while Shikamaru simply combined some knowledge, and also his huge chakra volumes. Basically, he just added the possibility of long-distance communication, especially for himself, since he could well withstand this in the future. Only someone with huge reserves of chakra is able to cross kilometers in the blink of an eye. There are not so many such people in this world. Without an accurate understanding of the space, it will not be easy without the cost. Shikamaru, on the other hand, did not even intend to study such concepts yet, as he was mostly focused on the chakra.

In any case, he only created it for the sake of experience. He had no intention of creating super-secret hideouts like Orochimaru's, but rather in this place he kept some of his research on Fuinjutsu, including the transferred structure with the legacy from the Maelstrom Village. And it will not be superfluous to have a transfer point at the border of the country.

The steel cube in front was sealed, so it was the only place where Shikamaru could not move using the altar functions, but that was not for long.

Leaning the scroll against the steel wall, in a special square area, Shikamaru quickly opened this bulky safe, and after a series of hand seals he teleported inside.

Many glowing lines on the walls and ceiling have long illuminated the inner hidden area. Basically, there was nothing here, only in the middle of the metal room was the same cube from the village of the Whirlpool, and not far from it were several shelves with scrolls and a writing table. Shikamaru worked behind him in his free time, in this shelter he spent at most three months, and then returned to his former place, to finish his main training. He had only come here to learn the techniques of teleportation and advanced sealing of Uzumaki. Unlike simple sealing of things - it was different, for example ...

Coming closer to the repository of knowledge, Shikamaru put his hand into a special recess, which he himself created after. He did not invent something new, rather he slightly changed the previous invention of Uzumaki to suit his needs. Therefore ... The cube instantly covered with a silvery dazzling halo, and then it simply disappeared, the air was distorted, but then returned to normal. Nothing left.

When Shikamaru removed his hand. A silver ring flashed on his ring finger, which was noticeably different from the past he wore.

Glancing at his research scrolls, he thought for a bit, and then decided to leave them, taking only a couple. He was now almost completely ready to travel home. It was there that he wanted to rebuild the Root to fit his needs and organize something like a normal area for researching his own forces and conducting some experiments. There was still a lot to do, ranging from comprehension of the higher transformations of all metals and ending with various mergers of genealogies and attempts to change the nature of one's own chakra. She was already strong, but this is clearly not the very limit at which it was worth stopping. Shikamaru just couldn't. In addition, there was a need for a special body conditioning technique, which Shikamaru acquired from Uzumaki, which directly related to the reason for their separation from Senju. All this required free space and a calm environment.

Having already dealt with this, Shikamaru stretched out his palm and opened his fingers, instantly the scroll he needed appeared on his hand. Normal, with a simple label "" - which meant "Ancestor". Shikamaru simply could not call himself Nara, so he had to come up with something like a nickname on this planet. With so many special bloodlines, he has long surpassed ordinary Shinobi, so he, with some smugness, decided to proclaim himself the Ancestor. This nickname could be, as the most common, and significant. With a set of achievements, like the strength of the owner of this nickname, it grew in its greatness. After all, in fact, everything depends on this very ancestor. In the end, in fact, he is, he really is the progenitor of his own bloodline. Therefore, he changed all the marks of the Nara long ago and decided to separate himself from this clan. Especially now that he has matured in body for a long time. He was no longer restrained, in the presence of strength. Certainly. He was not ungrateful, he was not about to let his roots be mere mediocrity. The time will come and the Nara will rise.

The gray cover of the scroll flipped open, and then Shikamaru simply folded the seal of concentration:

- Cut it out.

The next moment, with a silver flash, a man fell out of nowhere onto the steel plate. He was not tied, but he was unconscious - of course it was Haku. Only this "boy" possessed such a feminine body and pretty face. Even his pale skin and scent matched the girl perfectly. Kiri's green kimono, braided hair and a Mist protector.

Shikamaru's lips stretched out into a barely perceptible grin, and then he sat down near Haku and waited for him to awaken. He did not keep himself waiting long ...

"Mm ..." A gentle moan escaped his lips, and then he opened his eyes. At that very second, Haku jumped up and started looking around, trying to comprehend the situation. When his gaze touched Shikamaru, the guy flinched and everything began to clear up ...

- Where ... Where am I ?! Where is Z-Zabuza ?!

"Dead," Shikamaru replied calmly, as if it meant nothing. Of course it was for him, but not for Haku.
