Konoha 47, spring.
Ninja Academy The Cherry Blossom tree beside the playground is blooming again.
Pink and white petals fell on both sides of the street, covering them in a thin layer.
Lu You is sitting on the bench under the tree, flipping through a basic Sealing Jutsu scroll manuscript borrowed from Konoha Library. Well, yes, Konoha actually has a library.
Moreover, it contains a collection of various precious advanced ninjutsu, historical materials, etc.
Of course, ordinary people do not have permission to go to that advanced ninjutsu area.
Lu You is not good either, or in other words, he is even more bad than others. After all, he is from another village.
So we can also look at these basic things.
But for Kusagakure, it's enough.
Next to his feet squatted a lazy Orange wild cat, currently taking a nap with his eyes squinted.
From the time when the Hatake Sakumo incident subsided to now, another three years have flown by.
This period is neither long nor short, just enough for the 6-year-old to be close to 10 years old.
It was just enough to make everyone in Konoha accustomed to his existence.
In the past three years, he has met many people.
For example, the future famous Shinobi World Yellow Flash Minato Namikaze, a young Jonin with blond hair, has a smile as gentle as the warmth of spring.
Another example is that special pair of father and son, Might Duy and Might Guy, who wear green tights all day long on the training ground and scream for youth.
Although it looks very funny, it has been going on for decades, which is worthy of admiration.
There is also Tsunade. In the first year, she would occasionally drink tea with Lu You and discuss gambling skills. However, as Shizune graduated from the Ninja Academy, she said goodbye to Lu You and left Konoha.
Poor little loli Shizune, she will follow this fat sheep all over the world when she is not old enough.
Well, she's not short of money either.
The inheritance left by Senju, plus the fact that she is a world-famous medical ninja, the money she has accumulated over the years is enough for her to squander.
In addition, there is Hatake Sakumo. His communication with Lu You is basically looking at each other silently and exchanging information with their eyes, which is relatively restrained.
It is worth mentioning that Kakashi has successfully graduated and has gradually become a student of Minato Namikaze, forming a three-person team with Obito and Rin Nohara.
Since there was no Hatake Sakumo, he was not as difficult to contact as in the original work at this period, and he quickly accepted the two people, and they had a lot of fun.
The place where they train is not far from the training ground where Lu You often goes. Occasionally, you can hear Obito's voice coming from there, with the unique recklessness and reluctance of young people.
"Kakashi! I will definitely win you this time!"
Then came the response from Kakashi, which was neither salty nor bland.
"Is it just you? Just keep working hard and don't be a jerk like you were in school."
"Huh? What did you say!"
Then there is the laughter of Rin Nohara.
Yeah, classic Lao San.
After Kakashi finished his mission, he often came to Lu You to complain about Obito. He was sitting on the windowsill, his white hair blown rough by the night wind.
Obito told all the stupid things he did today, his face was speechless, but he may not have realized that he was filled with happiness at this time.
"Tsk, people do still have to have old enemies."
Lu You I listen to it occasionally, but sometimes I find it boring and will run away decisively.
Kana is becoming more and more delicate, and she has been getting in touch with Kushina Uzumaki during this period. After all, they both came from the Uzumaki Clan and have poor life experiences.
Kushina often pulls her to have long conversations.
The two women cried together.
However, Lu You cannot see Kushina.
As a foreigner, and unlike Kana, who has a special background, he is not allowed to approach Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. When the two women are chatting, he can only drink tea with Minato Namikaze.
"Yu-kun, what do you want to do when you grow up?"
Yongdaimei occasionally asks about these things.
"Establish an eternal order that can bring peace to the world."
"Eh? That's really a great dream. You have to work hard. I'm looking forward to that day."
Yellow Flash will not be negative or sarcastic like others, but will be encouraging with a gentle expression on his face.
"Young man! The cat under your feet is exactly the target of my mission. What a fate!"
The sudden heroic sound interrupted Lu You's thoughts. The man standing in front of him was covered in pure green, just like Kappa in Japan folklore.
"Uncle Dai, long time no see. How are you doing?"
"Well! He has always maintained the vitality of youth. I am so proud of him that I shed tears!"
Might Duy showed the dazzling White Fang and gave a thumbs up. As Might Guy graduated and became Genin, the pressure in his life was no longer so great.
He was able to spend more time transmitting the will of youth to his son.
"That's good, Nuo, Hakimi is for you."
Lu You picked up the scruff of Hakimi at his feet and handed it to Might Duy. The awakened cat looked at him speechlessly.
"Young man, Hakimi does not mean cat."
"Huh? Then why does Kun mean chicken?"
The two were silent.
"Young man, let's exercise together! I can see that you have a good foundation! Your passionate soul is burning..."
"Uncle Dai, forget it for today. I still have things to do today. Thank you. I will have the opportunity in the future."
Lu You's expression was very calm. He smiled, said goodbye to Might Duy, picked up the scroll, stood up, and walked to the home where he had lived for the past few years.
Might Duy stood there, looking at Lu You's retreating back, murmuring in a low voice.
"Is war coming again?"
Lu You returned to the house, sorted out the ninjutsu notes during this period, and directly performed Summoning Technique. There was a soft bang and smoke filled the air.
A cat appeared in front of him, proudly placed the letter in front of Lu You, then took his scroll away and disappeared again with a bang.
Over the past four years, he has been in constant communication with the leader of Kusagakure.
First, the ninjutsu he secretly learned at Konoha must be sent back to Kusagakure for those ninjas to learn.
Second, Kusagakure relies on him to make all decisions, big or small, so he is actually very busy.
The leisurely appearance on the surface is all a pretense, and is shown to people like Konoha.
Open the letter from Kusagakure leader--Gadfly.
"Boss, I have asked all the people below to practice the scroll you sent last time.
Because it is Fire Release, it is still the 154 people who have Fire Release Talent who have successfully learned.
At the same time, during this period, the elite team has begun to learn and master Chakra Nature Transformation, and I believe there will be results soon.
Compared with ninjutsu, the improvement of Taijutsu is stable. With the help of Taijutsu Secret Technique you gave them, they have made shocking Taijutsu improvements over the years.
Even if it is Five Great Nations, I am afraid there are not as many Taijutsu masters as there are, haha, it is a pity that it is a bit expensive...
The village's expenditure last month... income... Our newly opened Forge can stably produce Shuriken and Kunai. As for Explosive Tag, it still needs research and development time.
According to your decision, using ninjutsu to promote production has been very effective. Land of Grass Grain output increased steadily last quarter. While being self-sufficient, it can also export Land of Water.
Land of Water is our most stable customer. I plan to continue to contact them this month to see if I can do some work in transportation...
Boss, there is movement at Land of Rain. It is just as you expected. That old immortal Hanzō is ready to make a move. His grandma, according to the intelligence from Frontline Reconnaissance Squad, they have stationed a large number of troops on the border of Land of Grass.
This is no longer an act!
The situation is urgent, and I feel very anxious. I still have a clue about production and management, but I am completely confused about the war...
I don't dare to joke about the Nature and Life of the hundreds of brothers, boss, Kusagakure needs you!"
The three-year limit has arrived, and we welcome Grass Shadow to return!
Lu You slowly closed the envelope, and the golden flames wrapped around his fingertips completely burned it, leaving no smoke.
