So on the third day.
Konoha, the Land of Fire, finally had a little change.
It started snowing.
Naruto Rock, Shinbo Wind House
After a morning of cleaning, the retired Naruto finally hung up the curtains in his new house. There was a layer of white silk sand inside.
It was light, thin, and translucent.
It was hung with gold-plated Uzumaki leaves. The outer layer was a little thick, pure-colored densely woven linen.
He gave up Kina's favorite red bean paste and the Konoha green he had imagined. Under the suggestion of his artistic bodyguard, he chose a green called stone green.
It neutralized the pink sofa and white walls and floor in the room … the girlish feeling.
A smart man could always satisfy his wife while stuffing in what he wanted. "Sakai.
Turn it 0.05 degrees clockwise.
Your painting is crooked. "
The follower with a name moved it 0.05 degrees.
"Very good, next one."
Hearing the order, the little follower came down from the ladder and silently moved the picture frame back by 0.05 degrees. As a Konoha Jounin from Root, his strict training since childhood was enough to ensure his subtle perception of balance.
The great legendary ninja, Golden Flash, refused to wear glasses.
So he didn't notice Sakai's little movements at all.
He was still picking and choosing from the pile of framed pictures in the corner. The wooden picture frame was filled with fabrics of various sizes and materials. Rough hand-printed and dyed.
Shiny embroidered silk.
There were also a few furry skins stretched across the cork … It was hard to appreciate without ink.
It didn't have the uncomfortable smell of oil painting.
It didn't look cheap like print either.
"Four Generations?"
"This will do.
In the future, I can put earrings on Kina.
Small hairpins.
Small notes … I can poke them with my three-pointed fork. " Watergate picked up a piece of snow-white rabbit skin that had been sewn and cut into a rectangle and handed it over. "Hang it on the side of the dressing mirror."
Sakai took it and placed it on the porch cabinet.
"Okay, this seems more beautiful." Bo Fung Watergate decisively gave up on giving orders. He sat cross-legged on the thick handmade carpet in the living room and opened the box. As a Naruto, he had received many, many gifts in the past ten years. The valuable ones were cashed into Konoha's account, the food was checked for poison, and the rest were stored in the warehouse. If he continued to be busy, these gifts might directly become his funerary objects. But now that he had so much free time, he could dig out some small handicrafts. "But why are they either pacifiers or milk bottles?"
"The seal of Konoha in 49, when Naruto was one year old."
Watergate looks back at Sakai. Sakai, who is busy, blinks in confusion.
Watergate raised his head again. Kina was sitting on the crystal chandelier, swinging her legs.
"Your hearing is also deteriorating quickly. You can't even recognize your wife's voice."
"No way. After you spiritualize, your voice is like a demon's voice in my ears. It's the same as being affected by the Yamanaka family's Mind Confusion Technique." Watergate did not purposely open his mouth to scare people like he usually did. He only complained in his heart, 'I haven't seen her since morning again.'
"Are you angry?" Uzumaki Kina stuck out her tongue. "I told you before that we're ghosts and don't have time. I just wanted to see how other people decorate their houses. Who knew that the whole morning would be gone after just a few glances?"
Watergate continues to open the box.
Kina knew that she had been a little overboard these few days. Naruto and Aromatic Phosphorus had to work, and Kakashi and Genma were even busier. Watergate was only left with a smiling and taciturn bodyguard and an animal so stupid that it could not even pick up a ball. "Hey, Watergate, look, this pacifier is gold."
"Gold plating. Pure gold won't be left for me." Watergate warned himself not to lose his temper. No matter if Kina came back late because the flow of time was different from the human world, or if something really happened to Konoha that made even a ghost worried … He was no longer Naruto. He was not even a ninja anymore. He was just a husband and a father. "If I knew there were so many baby products, I wouldn't have ignored them."
Kina poked at the small cloak that she took out again. "Why didn't the Anbu team write a catalog for you after checking?"
"Sandaime was still in charge of the Anbu team in Konoha's 49." Watergate really wanted to ask his woman what had been bothering her for the past few days, but he gave up in the end after drinking the all-purpose supplement in the thermos.
However, Watergate did not need to say anything. In her spiritualized state, Kina could also hear what her man was thinking. But Kina was still hesitating whether to tell Watergate about the shadow that claimed to be Uchiha's ancestor. Other than Watergate's physical condition, there was also evidence. If it was proven that Mikoto's disappearance was related to the shadow, even if she was the only ghost who saw it, Kina dared to say it.
But … Watergate was no longer Naruto. It would be asking for trouble if she rashly told others that the ghost of Uchiha's ancestor was causing trouble. What if she was just paranoid and misunderstood something? "By the way, Watergate, you said that if I was still alive and gave birth to a younger brother or sister for Naruto every few years, we would have … six children by now?"
"Yes, we agreed to have a big, lively family." Watergate played along and curled the corners of his lips. Forget it. If Orochimaru's experiment failed, he might not be able to accompany Naruto for a few more years. "But maybe we'll give birth to a second child, and at most, a third child. Then we'll have peace."
Kina poked Watergate's waist, which had to be knocked on every time he packed a few gift boxes, and rolled her eyes. "That's true. I'm fine with it. I heard that the more a woman gives birth, the easier it is for her to give birth. It shouldn't be as painful as when she gave birth to Naruto, but you …"
"I'm fine with it now!" Watergate stretched out his arm to Kina and made a bodybuilding pose. "I mean, you know how noisy your son was when he was young. Think about it again. Two Naruto and three Naruto? "
Kina recalled bits and pieces of Naruto's childhood. She was grateful to God for allowing ghosts to have memories. It was indeed sad to be able to see but not touch, but at least she was never absent. "Biting the Secret Unit when he didn't like it, smashing glass and stepping on people's roofs every two to three days. That's you. If I'm still alive, I'll press his leg and spank him three meals and supper. Let's see if he still dares to do that."
"I don't believe that you can really do it." Watergate's face was gentle. "I can't bear to do it anyway."
"I don't know if Naruto will bear to hit the children in the future." Kina felt that her whole body was glowing.
"If Naruto hits the children, I'll hit him." Watergate found that imagining how to spend the lottery ticket was really pleasurable. "I don't know when Naruto and Hinata will get married. Let's not delay it until Asuma and Red's age."
"They've just started dating. It's hard to say if it will work out in the end."
"They've already confirmed their relationship. How can they break up?"
Kina rolled her eyes at Watergate. "Children nowadays fall in love like playing house."
"How can they be like us?" Watergate turned his back and chuckled. "I asked you if you wanted to sleep with me in the future, and you turned around and carried the bedding. If Naruto dares to ask Hinata like this, not to mention 64 palms, I'll beat our son until he swells up like a Dingzhuo. "
"Yes, we don't have parents and no one to care about us anyway." Kina rolled in the air and put her chin on Watergate's shoulder, pretending that she could blow.
Watergate also pretended that he was tickled by Kina's breath. "When Orochimaru gives us a definite answer, let's have a daughter. A girl will definitely be much more obedient than Naruto. "
"Are you sure? This is Konoha. "
"At most, we can raise another Princess Tsunade."
"You were loved as a child, and when you grew up, you shed your blood for Konoha, but in the end, you were useless, and were kicked away by the younger generation who felt that you were in the way?" Kinai couldn't help but say something fair.
"That can't be helped." Watergate looked at the small snowflakes outside the window. He didn't like snow at all now.
It's just that the only place that doesn't snow in winter is the Land of Hot Water.
The Land of Hot Water's commercial street, gambling den. A pair of dexterous hands violently pulled open the thick soundproof curtain, revealing a golden head.
"Ahhhh! Money! Money! Money! Why are you so weak! "She messed up her hair and tied her low ponytail again. Tobirama Tsunade squatted on the curb, her stomach growling. She lost money again. In fact, before she lost her wallet, she had won before. If she could stop in time when she won, she wouldn't have lost at all. But since she was winning, why didn't she continue to gamble? Since she lost money, she should work harder to win it back.
Of course, it didn't matter if she lost it all. She was rich. She was a direct descendant of the Tobirama family. Even if Konoha stopped paying dividends to the family, she was still a meritorious Jonin. Konoha elder, she had a pension.
But.
She wanted to boil a pot of wine, fill her stomach, and find a bed to recover her energy for tomorrow's battle. "Say it again. What do you mean I can't withdraw my pension? Isn't this Konoha's bankbook in my hand?! Isn't this bankbook mine?! I, Yueyue, am withdrawing money from you. Can't I prove that I'm me?! "
At the Konoha Ninjas's contact point, a waiter from the intelligence department bowed slightly behind the counter with a professional smile. "The bankbook is indeed yours, but Tsunade-sama, starting from January 1st of this year, all Konoha's contact points have changed to magnetic stripe cards."
"What the hell is that?"
The waiter took out a card. "This is it. Handwritten paper bankbooks can't be used anymore."
"Oh, oh, oh." Tsunade gritted her teeth and looked at the metal card on the table. The dark green front had the Uzumaki leaf logo embossed in gold and the ninja's number written in secret code. The back was a black block made of unknown material. It could be swiped on the contact point's machine to show the balance. She only needed to enter the password to withdraw money. "Then give me this magnetic stripe card."
"I'm sorry, Sama. You have to go back to Konoha in person to change this card. You also need to record your fingerprints and Chakra for anti-counterfeiting." The retired Chunin boy showed a professional smile. "They started changing it in batches last year. Didn't you know?"
"I know. Of course, I know." Bo Fung Watergate asked her to go back to Konoha every two or three days. She finally felt the malice from Konoha that Mute said. Yes, Kakashi was new and didn't have enough prestige. It was normal for him to kill someone as an example. But why did he want to kill her, Hime Tsunade?! Did the new Naruto lose his mind? She better not find out that it was Bo Fung Watergate's trick for Kakashi. That person is always so conceited. He never listens to the doctor. He never listens!
"You deserve to have Alzheimer's at such a young age! You deserve to be stupid even if you don't have Alzheimer's! Yes, Bo Fung Watergate is a big idiot! Big idiot! "
However, no matter how much she scolded him. In the Land of Hot Water, it was impossible to not have money.
"Hmph, I won't starve to death if I leave Konoha." Tsunade walked around the street twice and passed by three times. Finally, she walked into the bounty office with a dignified appearance. She looked at the picture of the golden hedgehog head and the string of zeros behind it. She seriously considered whether she should assassinate a golden flash. If she really took the bounty, it would be enough for her to squander for three to five years. "Where are you? Come out, I want to take a mission!"
"The missions are all on the wall. Take whichever one you want." The person in charge of the bounty office looked at the woman with light blonde hair, a diamond on her forehead, and huge breasts. Then he looked back at the same color photo on the mission list. "Konoha Sannin, Hime Tsunade, are you trying to sell yourself?"
"Do you want to die?"
"I'm a civilian." The person in charge of the bounty office was in his sixties. When Konoha was founded, the first Naruto was still in high spirits. But he wasn't afraid of the Hime Tsunade. Konoha was indeed leaderless in the Land of Hot Water, but the rules had been set long ago. As long as the other party didn't want to kill, you couldn't kill them. Unless it was a fight within Konoha's territory. As for civilians, Konoha would send out field troops. If you were lucky, the genius Itachi might personally invite you to tea …
Fine, fine. Ninjas don't touch civilians. Ninjas don't touch civilians. Tsunade suppressed her anger. "Isn't there any other mission?"
"No rebellious ninjas."
"What do you mean by no rebellious ninjas?"
"In addition to killing people at the gambling table, you also occasionally pay attention to the current political news. The previous economic cooperation agreement between Konoha and the Sand Hidden was exposed. If the wind and fire countries dared to hire a non-Konoha Ninja from Konoha and its affiliated Ninja Villages, they would be the common enemy of the two Ninja Villages. " The person in charge took out an old newspaper. "The day before yesterday, the agreement between Konoha and the Water Country and the Cloud Country officially came into effect."
"…"
"Of course, before the agreement officially came into effect, no one in the four countries hired rebellious ninjas. The remaining small countries didn't dare. Only businessmen took risks. As a result, wherever they went, they were destroyed." The person in charge put away the old newspaper. "The unemployed rebellious ninjas either return to the village to plead guilty, or hide their identity as civilians. If they were lucky, they would be recruited by Konoha like Ghost Zabuza. Otherwise, they could only rob people in the bounty office."
"…"
"There are only so many people in the bounty office that have already been paid. Once they're all killed, they're gone."
"…"
"But I still have some D-level missions from Konoha, looking for cats to send letters and do some chores."
"…"
"The rules for accepting the mission are the same as the Konoha Mission Hall. Would you like to experience it? "
"…" Tsunade looked at the person in charge of the bounty office who pulled up his sleeves and revealed a brand new Uzumaki leaf tattoo on his wrist. She cursed. "Our Konoha is really getting better and better. Even the underground bounty office that has always been independent has been incorporated."
"It's not incorporation. After ten years of hard work, Konoha's spies have been promoted to leaders of the bounty office." The person in charge smiled.
Tsunade took a deep breath and looked at the golden flash on the wall and the string of zeros behind Kakashi's photo. She suddenly found that she couldn't understand this world. "Okay, okay, give me a mission."
"Okay, do you want an internal Konoha mission or a non-wood mission?"
Tsunade was tongue-tied. "No, Konoha."
"The movie company wants ninjas to help with the Ninjutsu Rain, one day." The old shopkeeper operated the small LCD screen unskillfully. "The construction company wants ninjas to dig a cave, and …"
"Stop!" In the early years, robbers tried to rob her, but they were robbed instead. In the past two years, there wasn't a single thief in the Land of Hot Water. Tsunade felt that she really needed to go back. "Tell me where Konoha is lacking."
"Toru Yuya." The person in charge looked up. "The algae in the hot spring pool should be cleared."
"…" Tsunade turned around and left. Screw Konoha! Let the Hime Tsunade clean the bathing pool! She's crazy!
The person in charge of the bounty office looked at the princess who kicked the door and left. He shrugged and slowly hung up the mission cards he had just taken off one by one. If only they were as easy to eliminate as Konoha advertised. "Ah, the door was just broken. You can come in if you kick the door down."
The person in a navy blue sand cloak didn't use his feet. Instead, he squatted down and moved the broken wood away before coming in. "The door of the bounty office can be broken by a cat or dog. It seems that I've been out of touch for a long time."
"Are you issuing a mission or accepting a mission?" The person in charge was expressionless.
"I'm issuing an intelligence mission." The person shook off the dew on his sand cloak. He was careful not to show even the tip of his chin. "Find a drug. Extract it and test it. It's not a poison, but if taken with ginseng saponins, it can instantly suffocate someone to death."
"Time and reward."
"There's no time limit. First come, first served." The person's voice was low and hoarse, but he hid it perfectly. "As for the reward?"
The person in charge saw the person take out a bag from under the cloak. Then he heard a series of clanking sounds.
"Whoever finds the clue first will get all these gold bars. I'm rich. My family is rich. Even Konoha resents me for being rich."
Resenting someone who once had it and then lost it.
