Gaiden, the beginning of cultivation! (18)
After a battle of physical arts, illusions, and ninjutsu, Veget, Naruto, and Sakura finally got the bell and defeated Kakashi Hachiki, and Kakashi was also convinced, so Tsunade ordered Naruto, Sakura-chan and Kakashi to form Kakashiban to carry out the mission together, and Vegit was asked by Tsunade to go with Jiraiya to practice chakra and recover his memory, and Veget readily agreed.
Soon, the next day arrived, at the gate of Konoha Village.
"So, we're ready to go!" Jiraiya said with a smile while carrying a travel bag.
"Bye-bye, everyone!" Vegett also said with a smile on his backpack.
"Come on, you two!" Tsunade said with a smile.
So, Jiraiya and Veget said goodbye to Tsunade and embarked on the journey of cultivation, and the two walked slowly towards the depths of the forest.
"Teacher Jiraiya, where do we go to cultivate first?" Vegit asked.
"That's right...... The destination has not yet been decided, but this journey has three purposes, one is your cultivation, the second is to restore your memory, and the third is to collect Xiao's information. Jiraiya said with a smile.
"Xiao? Whose name is that? Vegett asked.
Jiraiya shook his head and said solemnly: "That is a very evil organization, there are about a dozen people known to be there, each with different tricks, all members are wearing black trench coats embroidered with red clouds, and hats tied with wind chimes on their heads. It's a tricky organization, and the information we have at the moment is that they're purposefully collecting tailed beasts. ”
"What is a tailed beast? Why collect them? Vegett asked.
"Tailed beasts are magical beasts with tails, there are currently a total of 9, one tail has one tail, two tails have two tails, and so on, the last nine tails have nine tails, these monsters are extremely large, with endless chakra and overwhelming combat power." Jiraiya said.
"I see...... If this organization called Xiao obtains all the tailed beasts, it is estimated that they will be able to dominate the world! Speaking of which, Mr. Jiraiya, you just said that Xiao is collecting tailed beasts, right? So why don't we collect tailed beasts? Is it because they are too strong? Vegett asked.
After listening to this, Jiraiya smiled and said, "Did you notice?" It's very simple, because those tailed beasts are sealed on the bodies of nine people, if you want to get the tailed beasts, you have to defeat those who sealed them, and the people who sealed them are protected by their respective ninja villages, so openly collecting tailed beasts is equivalent to being the enemy of the entire ninja world! By the way, we also have a tailed beast in Konoha Village. ”
"Huh!! So, on whose body is it sealed? Veget asked in surprise.
"Hey...... Haven't you noticed? That guy knows you, too! Jiraiya said with a smile.
"Huh...... Could it be ......," Vegette said in surprise, "Could it be that the tailed beast is sealed inside your body?" ”
"Wow!" Jiraiya suddenly slashed and fell into the mud, and Veget quickly helped him up and slapped the mud off his body.
"Be careful, Mr. Jiraiya." Vegit said.
“…… Why do you think of me? Jiraiya asked speechlessly.
"Huh? Isn't it? Veget asked in surprise.
"Hey...... The tailed beast in our village is the Nine-Tails, and it is now sealed in Naruto's body. Jiraiya said.
Naruto...... Naruto's body actually has a tailed beast in it? No wonder I always sensed something special about him...... So, is Naruto also Akatsuki's target? Vegette asked in a cold sweat, Zilai also nodded, and then said: "But don't worry, before you lost your memory, I had already taken him out to cultivate, and you have also seen his strength, it has been greatly enhanced, plus with the protection of the village, it will be fine, you can concentrate on recovering your memory!" ”
Soon, the two of them came to the vicinity of a town talking and laughing, and after looking at it, he said, "Then, let's live in this town for a while, and the cultivation will also be carried out here, and there is a small hill full of trees behind this town, which happens to be your cultivation location." ”
"Yo Si! Already about to start? Yikes! I'm getting more and more excited! Vegit said excitedly.
The two of them slowly entered this small city, the city is not big, there are not many buildings that are too tall, and the ancient style is still retained here.
"Wow...... That's a lot of people...... It's the first time I've been to this place......" Veget said in surprise.
"You've just fought Kakashi before, and your physical strength hasn't fully recovered yet, so let's have a good time and take a good rest before you start cultivating!" Jiraiya said with a smile.
"Oh! That's it, then I'll go buy some food first! Veget smiled and took off the travel bag behind him, then took out a qua wallet from it, opened the wallet, and revealed a large stack of bulging yen.
"Oh!! You're pretty rich! Jiraiya said with a smile.
"Hmm!" Veget nodded, and added: "When I was sorting things out, I found the pants I was wearing before I lost my memory, and found my wallet from inside, and the necklace I was wearing around my neck seemed to be something before I lost my memory, but I didn't remember anything, so I don't remember the bank card password in this wallet at all, hahaha!" Well, I'll go first! ”
"Wait!!" Jiraiya stopped Vegett and said, "Let me keep your wallet!" ”
"Why?" Vegit asked.
"Hey...... Don't you know that ninjas have three forbidden things: women, alcohol, and money, and these three things will kill you! Once you spend so much money, your desires will be exposed, and it will not benefit you at all! Jiraiya said.
"Hmm...... Jiraiya is right...... Then, I will leave my money to the teacher for safekeeping! Vegett smiled and handed the wallet to Jiraiya, who took the wallet and touched Veget's head and complimented, "Hmm! Good job, you're very qualified to be a ninja! ”
But Jiraiya thought so in his heart: "Hee-hee-hee...... It's time to have a good time...... So much money...... This guy is much simpler than Naruto...... The rumors seem to be true! ”
Jiraiya took out two 10,000 yen bills from his wallet, handed them to Veget, and said, "You can buy food with this money, I will book the hotel, and I will use ninjutsu to find you when the time comes, I will go to collect intelligence first, and besides, you must not drink alcohol!" You're only 18 years old, and you can't drink until you're 20 years old, don't forget that! Then get it for me! After Jiraiya finished speaking, he handed his travel bag to Veget, who smiled and said, "Hmm! Leave it to me, teacher, and go collect information! ”
"So, I'm leaving!" After Jiraiya finished speaking, he left, and secretly thought to himself, "I really like him a little...... Very obedient, and without a word of complaint, this is completely different from Naruto......"
"Gollum-" Veget's stomach growled, and hunger instantly spread throughout her body, "Ah...... Hungry...... What should I eat first...... Well? Smell ......" Suddenly, a strong fragrance came over, smelling Veget's drool, so Veget looked over and found that it was a ramen shop, walked in without saying a word, and said after walking in: "Boss, bring me a big bowl of miso barbecued pork ramen!" ”
"Okay!" The boss shouted.
Soon, a steaming bowl of miso barbecued pork ramen was cooked, and the boss brought the noodles to Veget and said with a smile, "Here, long wait!" ”
"(Swallowing saliva), what a tempting aroma...... I'm moving!! Veget's hands were clasped together, holding chopsticks in his right hand and a spoon in his left hand, he scooped up a mouthful of soup with a spoon first, and drank it slowly, the delicious taste instantly spread all over his body, Veget couldn't help but show a happy expression, and then Veget picked up the ramen in the bowl with chopsticks and slowly brought it to his mouth.
"Whew...... Delicious...... It's hard to stop! Vegett sped up eating ramen, and in less than five minutes, Veget's bowl of ramen and even the soup were all made by Veget, so Veget paid the bill and left the ramen shop.
"Ah...... It's delicious...... But I don't feel full...... Oh, it's takoyaki!! I'm coming! After Vegett finished speaking, he bought another box of takoyaki, and then ate it as he walked, "It's so hot!" Kindness!!! This elastic texture!! It's so addictive!! ”
"Ahh Suddenly, an image flashed through Veget's mind.
"Didn't they all say don't run around in a yukata, it hurts to fall down!"
"It's okay, even if I slip, you'll come to me, won't you?"
"......" Veget stayed in place for a few seconds, and there was a faint pain in his head, "The picture just now...... What is it...... Could it be that takoyaki is the key to unlock my seal? Veget ate the second takoyaki without saying a word, but it didn't flash the picture just now.
"Hmm...... Isn't it...... It's probably not the first time I've eaten takoyaki...... Ay...... It's really not so easy to recover my memory......" Veget thought as he ate the takoyaki in the box, and after a while, the takoyaki was finished.
"Whew...... There is still a lot of money though...... I can't break the three prohibitions of ninjas! Oh, let's have some dessert after dinner! Thinking so, Veget came to the dumpling shop and said, "Boss, bring me six strings of dumplings!" ”
"Okay!" After the boss finished speaking, he brought out a bowl containing six strings of dumplings and a cup of tea, and placed them next to Veget, who slowly ate the meatballs with the tea.
"Ahh......h Ahh......hh It's so sweet......" Although Veget was eating the dumplings, he couldn't help but feel a little lost in his heart, "I...... What kind of person was he before...... At least he shouldn't be a wicked person...... But...... What does that feel like...... Feel...... It's a little lonely......"
"Suck-" Vegette took a slow sip of tea, picked up another string of dumplings, and continued to eat.
"Whew...... Full-fed...... Boss, let's pack six more dumplings for me! Vegette said with a smile.
"Okay!" Soon, the boss put the dumplings into a box and handed them to Veget, and after Vegett gave the money, he left, "This dumplings are very delicious, let's make a snack for Mr. Jiraiya!" Anyway, where did the teacher go......"
"Hahahaha!!" Suddenly, Jiraiya's voice came from a shop in front of him, and Veget slowly walked to the front of the store, which read, "Escort Ladies Club."
“…… Teacher, I don't think I'll come to this kind of place, this kind of place where the ninja's three forbiddens are broken in seconds. Vegit said speechlessly.
"Sure enough, the young girl is so nice!!" Jiraiya's voice came out again.
“…… That guy!! Veget immediately entered the store, and sure enough, he found that Jiraiya was sitting comfortably on the sofa drinking, and there were two escort girls next to him who were smiling and drinking with him, and when he saw Veget coming in, he smiled and asked, "Yo! Veget, are you full? ”
"Teacher...... I'd like to ask...... What are the three forbidden ninjas? Vegit asked speechlessly.
"Eh......" Zilai was also momentarily confused.
Vegett slowly walked to the table, looked at his purse, and said, "Told me not to commit the three prohibitions, but I committed them first, and I committed all the three prohibitions at once...... You used a third of my money in an instant......"
"No...... No, listen to me, there are deep reasons for this!! Jiraiya said in surprise.
Veget slowly stood up, exuding an unusually gloomy aura, and said, "Profound ...... Why...... Let me hear it......"
"Ahh The two escort girls were scared away in an instant.
"Ahem...... Veget, this kind of place has very rare information, you know? Jiraiya asked.
"Huh!? I see!! Vegett turned his anger into joy and said, "Jiraiya-sensei gave up his life to enter this kind of place to gather important information!" It's true that this is a gathering place for intelligence, so it makes sense to spend money! That's right! As the legendary three ninjas, how can they casually violate the three prohibitions, hahahaha!! ”
"Hahaha...... I misunderstood it somehow...... It's so simple...... This guy ......," Jiraiya secretly rejoiced.
"By the way, Mr. Jiraiya, I just went to a good-tasting dumpling shop, so I packed the dumplings there and brought them, you can try them!" Vegette said as she handed the dumplings to Jiraiya.
"Oh! Well done, good wine with meatballs! After Jiraiya finished speaking, he picked up a bunch of dumplings and ate them, and drank wine, and after eating a bunch of dumplings, he handed a bunch of balls to Veget, and said, "You can eat too!" ”
"Thank you!" Vegett walked over and took the ball, just took a step back and lost his balance due to a slip under his feet, fell backwards, and the ball in his hand flew out at once, hitting one of the two people in the back, and the other said, "Hey! What are you doing!! ”
