Escape From Konoha Chapter 480

  Chapter 480 Intermission II

   "The barbecue here is really delicious, thank you for the treat this time, Teacher Asma."

  After enjoying the delicious barbecue, the eighth and tenth classes all came to the open space outside the store, and stretched their waists refreshedly. Feeling that all the frustration and loss of the qualifiers were swept away from their hearts, they said to Asma with words of gratitude.

   "I really should thank Asma, after this barbecue meal, it feels like bleeding."

  Shikamaru's tone of voice seemed a bit gloating.

   "Hey, Shikamaru, don't tell such a tragic thing."

  Hearing Shikamaru's words, Asma looked at the completely shriveled wallet in her hand, and sighed extremely melancholy.

   Originally planned to finish the barbecue, and the remaining money was prepared for the date in the next few days.

   But now it seems that the plan will never keep up with the changes.

  Who would know that apart from a big eater in his team, there will be another big eater?

  If I had known it earlier, I wouldn't have said things like 'open your mouth and eat'. Looking back now, I really feel like shooting a rock at my own foot.

   As he spoke, Asma glanced at Hinata out of the corner of his eye. Although compared to women of the same age, her figure was indeed a little more prominent, but with those pure white eyes, no matter how you looked at it, the other party was from the Hyuga clan and had nothing to do with the Akimichi clan.

   "Many, thank you for your hospitality, Teacher Asma."

  As if aware of Asma's gaze, Hinata blushed slightly, and hurriedly bowed in return.

  Afterwards, she raised her head and asked cautiously, "Then, did I cause trouble?"

  Asma waved her hand. Although her heart was bleeding, she still had a relaxed smile on her face.

   "No, it's nothing, it's just some unplanned budget. And seeing how happy you are eating, it's worth the money."

  Although he is not a student led by him, he is still a young junior in the village. As a senior, he can't be fussy at such a time.

   Impression points are the most important.

  Especially if there is still a woman you like standing next to you, you can't be fussy about this kind of thing.

  Although the budget for this barbecue meal is just 'some' more.

   "Hinata, you eat too much, right? It's the first time I've seen someone who can still eat than Dingci. And you eat so much, and your figure doesn't lose shape."

  Ino said to Hinata enviously.

  Because he didn't want to gain weight, Ino didn't eat too much this barbecue.

   "There is no such thing, my appetite is just a little more than ordinary people. I just don't know why, after the game in the morning, my stomach has been very hungry."

   When Ino said that, Hinata also knew that she was a little too rude tonight.

  But there was no way, she was so hungry that she ate a little more than usual.

   "It's because the chakra is absorbed. When the ninja is short of chakra, replenishing food can indeed quickly restore their own chakra."

  Red, as a jonin, can see what Hinata's hunger is all about at a glance.

  Chakra is the energy extracted from the combination of human spiritual energy and physical energy. Needless to say, spiritual energy, most of the physical energy of the human body comes from the usual supplementary food. After systematic exercise, it is combined with spiritual energy to produce new chakra.

  In the case of relatively increased mental energy, the higher the quality of the human body, the more chakras it can control.

  All ninjas with strong chakras have a body of good quality.

  After listening to Hong's analysis, Hinata didn't know if this was the case, but she also acquiesced to this statement.

   After all, her stomach started to feel hungry, and it did happen after the game.

   "Is there any place you need to go next? If not, let's end here today and go back to the hotel to rest."

   Asma asked at this time.

   "For me, I still need to buy some snacks. I have eaten all the snacks I brought over."

  Choji patted his bulging stomach and said.

   "Then let me go with you, Choji. Ino, how about you? Do you want to go together?"

  Shikamaru looked at Ino.

  Ino said bluntly: "No, I'm going to buy clothes and cosmetics, Hinata, how about going with me?"

   Facing Ino's invitation, Hinata hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

   "I'm going to buy high-end dog food, so I won't go with you."

   Kiba lifted Akamaru off his head and said.

   "I also have something to do, I need to buy ninja tools."

  As the only ninja here who has advanced to the finals, Shino is not at all relaxed at the moment. Facing the finals filled with strong opponents, he also feels tremendous pressure.

   Having decided what to do, Shikamaru and the others said goodbye to Asma and Hong, and then left directly.

  Only Asma and Hong were left in place.

   "This group of guys are really not afraid of strangers at all. Since this is the case, how about we go out and continue shopping?"

   Asma suggested to Hong.

   "Didn't you just say you wanted to go back?"

   "Uh... Actually, I'm not that tired."

  Asma scratched her head in embarrassment.

   "It's really a perfunctory answer, Asma."

  Hong sighed.

"Have it?"

   "Forget it, that's all for today. If there is anything else, let's talk about it tomorrow. I'm a little tired, so I'll go back to the hot spring first."

  Hong pressed his sore shoulder, turned his head and walked to the platform, and began to wait for the bus.

   "Wait, I'll go back to the hot spring with you too."

  Asma saw Hong leaving without delay, she trotted to catch up immediately, as if she was afraid of being thrown away.

   the next day.

  As the alarm rang, Kakashi got up from the bed on time.

   Shaking his dizzy head, although it has been a whole night and he has taken sober medicine, he still feels a little dizzy.

   "Sure enough, I shouldn't have drank so much with that guy Obito last night."

  That's what he said, but in Kakashi's tone, there was no complaint, but some kind of relief.

  After all, there are very few people in this world who can treat each other sincerely.

   And most of them are not in Konoha. Indulging themselves in front of people like this makes me feel like I am not myself.

  Because we have known each other since childhood, this emotion is more real and pure, instead of full of all kinds of intrigue and careful calculation.

  Kakashi slowly walked out of the bed after the alcohol had subsided a bit, obviously feeling that his footsteps were more vain than usual.

   At that time, we must not reveal our flaws. Thinking of this, Kakashi walked to the cupboard wearing slippers, took out another bottle of hangover medicine from it, and took two pills.

   Perhaps it was psychological comfort. After taking the hangover medicine, Kakashi obviously felt that his dizziness was not so severe.

  After getting dressed and washed, Kakashi quickly made preparations. After checking that there was no problem with the equipment on his body, he opened the door and walked out.

   "You are too slow, Mr. Kakashi, it is already nine o'clock!"

  As soon as he got outside, he heard Naruto scolding very unceremoniously.

  Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura were already waiting in the corridor for their arrival.

   "I'm really sorry, I accidentally overslept last night. After all, the bed here is so comfortable, even more comfortable than the bed at home."

  Although he gave an explanation, it can be seen that neither Naruto nor Sasuke and Sakura actually bought it.

   It may be because he is used to procrastinating. The three of them might not believe a word of the excuses he made.

   "That thick-browed teacher had already taken his team out for special training, and so did Teacher Hong. In the end, you were the only one holding back, Mr. Kakashi."

  Naruto folded his hands on his chest and continued to accuse.

   "Don't be so anxious. There is a saying that latecomers prevail? Moreover, I have already found a very good teacher for Naruto, and I will definitely not let you down."

   Kakashi said.

   "What? New teacher?"

   Naruto froze.

   "Yeah. Any questions?"

   Kakashi asked back.

  Sasuke and Sakura also looked over.

  Among them, Sakura was even more puzzled and asked: "What's going on, I haven't heard Kakashi-sensei say it before?"

   "It's not too late to know now."

   "But, who is the new teacher?"

   "How should I put it, he is a great ninja in every sense. Better than me."

  Because he didn't know how to evaluate Jiraiya, Kakashi could only use the general word 'great' to describe it.

   "Even so, I still think it's more reliable to let Mr. Kakashi guide me. Moreover, there are only less than five days left before the final of the third exam."

  Compared to the new teacher who has never been masked, Naruto hopes that Kakashi will personally guide him.

   "No, teaching you and Sasuke at the same time in such a short period of time will seriously reduce the quality of teaching. Besides, I have basically taught you everything that can be taught to you. Whether it is wind escape or shadow clone technique, I am not good at it. And in terms of physical skills, you don't have Sharingan, so you can't do it in a few days."

   Kakashi analyzed rationally.

  He knows that Naruto is unwilling, but entrusting Naruto to Jiraiya and learning ninjutsu from him is the best way at present.

   Only in this way can Naruto's strength soar within a few days.

   Otherwise, in the current state, Kakashi thinks it is very dangerous if he wants to make a prominent performance in the finals.

  Naruto still had something to say, Kakashi interrupted directly: "That's it, if there is anything, let's talk about it when you go to the place. If you really can't learn anything useful from the new teacher, then I promise you, I will guide you and Sasuke at the same time."

  Hearing what Kakashi said, Naruto nodded in agreement, but he still felt unhappy inside.

  All ninja candidates who have qualified for the third final round can temporarily obtain a training venue from the Oni Land military.

   This is also to take care of the candidates who enter the finals, so that they can carry out targeted exercises within the effective time, or have enough space to carry out simulated actual combat and think about more complete countermeasures.

  The outskirts of Ziyuan City is a vast and boundless forest.

  The core position is densely covered with twisted barbed wire, and a wooden sign of "No Entry" is hung.

  Kakashi led the three of Naruto here, not far from a huge mountain range.

  Up along the approach, there are rows of red torii gates, which can be vaguely seen on the top of the cloud-shrouded mountain, and there are many towering temples.

  The practice site where they are located is located in an uninhabited wild area near the shrine.

  Although it is not the shrine where the main priestess is located, it is also a large-scale shrine known far and wide.

   And this practice site is also separated from the mountain range of the shrine where the witches live, with tough iron wires.

  Go in from the entry position, and stop in a field with 'No. 3' written on it.

   "Sasuke, Sakura, you two wait for me here first, I will take Naruto to the 'No. 4' venue next door, and I will be right back."

  Kakashi left this sentence, and walked towards the fourth field with Naruto with a displeased face.

   Site No. 4 is closer to the core of the mountain forest than Site No. 3, and there is almost only a "wall" between the mountain where the shrine is located.

   Soon, Kakashi brought Naruto to the fourth venue.

  Dense forests surrounded the clearing, and in the clearing stood a man with long white hair.

  The bright red oil paint, the forehead guard with the word "oil", and the high-heeled clogs that are very inconvenient for ninjas are very recognizable features in the eyes of well-known figures in the ninja world.

  As soon as he saw Kakashi and Naruto coming, he greeted with a smile: "It's finally here, Kakashi, I've been waiting here for quite a while."

   "Sorry, Ziraiysama, something happened on my side, so I'm late. But according to the agreement, I brought Naruto over and handed it over to you for guidance."

   Kakashi apologized and pushed Naruto to the front.

  Naruto pointed at Jiraiya with an unhappy face, and asked, "Who are you? What can you do to replace Kakashi-sensei and come here to guide me?"

   Kakashi, who wanted to reprimand Naruto, was interrupted by a sudden burst of laughter before he could speak;

   "Haha, boy, you asked a good question."

  Jiraiya shook his hair exaggeratedly, bit his finger, and slammed down on the ground.

   Bang, accompanied by a puff of thick smoke, the voice came again:

   "I am one of the legendary Sannin, the white-haired boy from Mt. Miaomu, and the famous Toad Immortal Jiraiya!"

  The smoke dissipated. Looking at Jiraiya, who was standing on top of a big toad in a strange pose and speaking words of unknown meaning, Naruto couldn't handle such complicated information in his brain for a while, so he froze on the spot.

   "Toad...toad...immortal?"

   "That's right, I am Immortal Toad. How about it, do you want me to sign it for you?"

  Although Naruto's gaze was not one of admiration, Jiraiya still nodded with a proud expression.

   "The devil wants your autograph. Mr. Kakashi, isn't the person you're looking for too unreliable?"

   Naruto stared at Kakashi, hoping that Kakashi would give him a satisfactory explanation.

  Kakashi said earnestly: "Naruto, you can't look at the surface when looking at people. Jiraiysama is a very powerful ninja. You can definitely learn very powerful ninjutsu from him."

   "In other words, you also admit that he is an unreliable guy from the outside?"

  Faring to Naruto's words, Kakashi laughed and fooled it.

   "Boy, are you dissatisfied with me?"

   Jiraiya asked at this time.

   "Of course, the final will be in a few days, I don't want to waste time here."

  Naruto made no secret of his inner thoughts.

   "That's really a coincidence. If you go through my guidance, it will be safe for you to win the first place in the final."

   Zilai also said.

"Yeah?"

  Naruto still didn't believe it.

  Kakashi patted Naruto on the shoulder and said:

   "Okay, since you have already met, then I will leave first. Naruto, don't be too self-willed. Although Jiraiysama is a bit lively, the Fourth Hokage you admire is a disciple taught by Jiraiysama. Moreover, Jiraiysama, like Oshemaru who once defeated you, is a legendary ninja who is tied for three ninjas."

"What?"

  After listening to Naruto, he couldn't believe that he looked at the elderly white-haired man in front of him. The other party turned out to be the ninja who taught the fourth generation of Hokage. And with the big snake pill who easily defeated their seventh class, they are listed as one of the three ninjas.

   Sure enough, he has a glorious past. Although Naruto is still a little reluctant on the surface, he has actually accepted Kakashi's words in his heart and asked Jiraiya to guide his practice.

  After Kakashi left, only Jiraiya and Naruto were left in the open space.

  After staring at each other for a while, Jiraiya also started to get down to business, and asked Naruto: "I heard from Kakashi that you have learned to tread water, climb trees, and the application of wind attribute chakra from him. Is that true?"

   Naruto nodded, climbing trees, treading water, and the use of wind attribute chakra, Kakashi has taught him all.

   Seeing Naruto nodding, Jiraiya also knew that he didn't take something practical, so Naruto probably wouldn't approve of him.

  So, Zilai also coughed and said, "Since this is the case, it will be much easier. I think you also know that there are only less than five days left before the finals, and you don't have much time left. Generally speaking, it is impossible to obtain a huge increase in strength within a few days. Therefore, I plan to teach you a technique."

   "jutsu? Is it some kind of powerful ninjutsu?"

  Naruto asked excitedly.

   "Wait, don't get excited. This technique is not easy to learn, but I can guarantee that after you learn this ninjutsu, you will be able to gain great strength in a short period of time and shine in the finals. Maybe you will also get applause from many girls."

   At the end, he laughed unscrupulously and winked at Naruto.

   "Girls' applause...hehe..."

   Somehow, Naruto thought of something good, and there was a trace of wretchedness in Naruto's smile.

  However, Naruto quickly came back to his senses and asked, "So, what kind of ninjutsu are you going to teach me, that Toad Immortal?"

  Although it is a beautiful fantasy to win the applause of the girl you love, it can only happen if you win the final.

   Therefore, it is very important to learn powerful ninjutsu from Jiraiya.

   "The technique I want to teach you is this."

   Jilai also pointed with his thumb to the one-meter-tall toad behind him.

  This big toad has a string of rosary beads on its head, iron armor on its arms, and a short knife on its back. Compared to a toad, it looks more like a majestic warrior.

"This is…"

   "The psychic technique I used to summon this toad just now is a summoning ninjutsu that can summon contracted creatures and fight for oneself. Next, what I want to teach you is this trick. It is also a method I thought of that can quickly improve your strength."

   "Then what are you waiting for, hurry up and teach me how to use psychic skills!"

   Naruto shouted impatiently.

  Being able to summon a giant toad to help him fight, Naruto suddenly became excited.

   "You are really impatient, forget it, since you have said so, then before that, sign your name on this contract scroll. Only in this way can you learn the art of psychics."

   Jiraiya took down the huge scroll placed behind his back, placed it in front of Naruto, spread the scroll, and showed a tricky smile at the corner of his mouth.

  The train crossing the wilderness and the forest headed all the way to Ziyuan City.

  Different from the VIP compartment where ordinary passengers live, there is a guard in heavy armor every one meter in the corridor, standing upright like a sculpture.

  These guards have sharp eyes, scanning every corner of this carriage, to ensure that they can be mobilized in time to stop the riot if there is any situation.

   "Really, Santa, how long will it take to arrive at the station? My legs are already numb."

  In the room of the carriage, there came a relatively headstrong young female voice.

  The other party was sitting there with his legs crossed in boredom, even in a very casual posture, but it was very suitable for the other party, not at all rude, but full of a kind of maverick elegance and calmness.

   "Your Highness, please don't worry, according to the time, there are still ten minutes to arrive at the station."

  Thick and powerful words came from the mouth of an old man named 'Santafu'.

  Wearing a black formal suit, his white hair was combed meticulously without any mess, and he wore white gloves on his hands. He looked like a handsome gentleman, serving beside what he called 'His Royal Highness'.

   "Is there still ten minutes? I always feel that the time has been stretched this time when I come to Ziyuan City."

   "This is your psychological illusion, Your Highness. Also, please sort out the wrinkles on your clothes. Such mistakes should not have happened to you."

  Santafu frowned when he saw the young woman's unsightly sitting posture and some wrinkles on her clothes.

  I feel that as a daimyo of the Snow Country, she shouldn't show such a disrespectful side.

   "You are so long-winded. I just finished filming a few days ago, so I should take a good rest. Besides, the weather is really hot, which is completely different from the Snow Country. Snowball fights are still going on in China, and this side is already wearing shorts. And that one over there, please help me refill a glass of water."

  Faced with the harshness of the third husband, Fenghua Xiaoxue, who is the daimyo of the Snow Country, not only did not agree, but thought that the other party was a rigid old scholar who did not know how to adapt, an old antique.

   "Yes, Your Highness."

  The maid waiting not far away poured a glass of water and brought it to Xiaoxue respectfully.

   "Please be elegant, if His Excellency Baishi sees your willful side, he will also preach to you."

   "I'm sorry, Father, he won't be so sticky about details. And I did this, according to Father, to get closer to the people. It's you who are too serious, San Taifu."

  Xiaoxue laughed at Santa Fu while holding the teacup.

  Santafu looked helplessly at the posture of Xiaoxue holding the teacup, but he also knew that this willful Highness would not change according to his request.

  Ever since she became an actress, she has never been known to people as the famous name Fuka Koyuki of the Snow Country, but the actress whose stage name is "Fuji Fuyukie".

  In Santafu's view, there is no famous name in this world who lives so freely like her and can completely let herself go.

  Thinking about the snow country that has become famous for its "Fuji Kazee" in the past few years, the treasury revenue is also like this daimyo, who has completely let go of himself, and it is increasing every year in a way of letting himself go. The third husband wept sadly.

  Although the treasury revenue is increasing year by year, it is a good thing, but when I think that this is what I got after 'sacrificing' the image of Xiaoxue, the daimyo of the snow country, I feel a little regretful.

  After all, what he hoped at the beginning was to cultivate Xiaoxue into a well-educated, gentle and virtuous daimyo of the Snow Country.

   Now it seems that the life trajectory of the other party is a bit out of touch with the knowledgeable, gentle and virtuous aspects.

  When the third husband was complaining about himself, a whistle sounded, and the train stopped by the platform shortly afterwards.

   "Ah, finally stopped, let's go down quickly, the space here is too stuffy."

  Xiaoxue put down the teacup in her hand, immediately stood up from the seat, and ran towards the door.

   "Wait, Your Highness, please pay attention to your lady's etiquette!"

  Seeing Xiaoxue walking out of the door quickly, San Taifu chased after her in shock.

   Xiaoxue ignored the third husband who was chasing after her and preaching to her.

  After the carriage door opened, Xiaoxue's eyes were fixed. After finding the target, she walked up quickly and threw herself into the arms of the man who had been waiting for her for a long time. Like a little girl who never grew up, her face was filled with a happy smile.

   "Long time no see, Father."
