Chapter 28: Shogi
"Kakashi, why did you bring Aoi back to Konoha?" Tsunade really has reservations about this matter. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
"If a child with special abilities like him is taken advantage of, it will be another tragedy." Kakashi said gloomily.
"So...... What are you going to do with him? β
"Since he wants to be a ninja, let him follow the path of a ninja!"
"As a ninja of Konoha?"
"This ......" is indeed more difficult, and perhaps in the near future, the Hino clan will restore the status of Ninja Village.
"Understood, let him enter the ninja school first!" Tsunade seemed to see something in Kakashi's eyes.
"Yes! Thank you, Tsunade-sama! β
Come out and gently bring the door, look at Aoi who is waiting on the side, and show a relieved smile, let this child, feel the will of Konoha Fire!
Placing him with Naruto for the time being, I wonder if Naruto will have an opinion when he comes back, or will he be happy to see that he has a younger brother (Aoi is a year younger than Naruto)?
Ask Iruka to give Aoi a test and you'll know where to start. In that case, I'm going to be Aoi's teacher.
After dealing with these things, I saw Yao Ren running to me in a hurry.
"Yoyo-sama! Just got the news from Izumo Kamizuki that you're back in Konoha, and it's great! β
Yes! I've forgotten all about it. Oh no, it's been two weeks since I left Konoha, and I don't know what will happen.
Follow the medicine ninja to the greenhouse of the medicine garden.
"Look! The lotus flower has sprouted! β
Sure enough, the seedlings have already emerged, and they are delicate.
"It's just that the crystal water is about to run out, and I have to reduce the amount of irrigation to the lowest value, so I can barely hold on until now, if Lord Yoyo doesn't come back, there will be no way."
"Ahh But it's also for the mission. So, I'll leave you some more this time! β
"It's just that if it's been a long time, I don't know if the crystal water will deteriorate? Chakra will gradually disappear over time, so I always do chakra before watering. β
I took the last jar of crystal water off the shelf, drank a few sips, and savored it. "No problem, it won't spoil!"
After dealing with the matter of the medicine garden, it seems that there is really nothing more to do.
Life in this Hokage world is really boring, and I have to think about whether I have nothing to write and play like Jiraiya!
Oh, by the way, shogi! If you want to talk about casual and puzzle items, it's still board games!
I don't know how to play yet, but it is said that Japanese shogi was also passed from China, and I still know how to play Chinese chess!
I rushed to find Shikamaru.
"Huh? Does Yoyo-sensei want to learn shogi? β
"Well, yes, I've been a little bored lately."
"That couldn't be better! Teacher Asma hasn't played chess with me for a long time, and I will have a new opponent in the future! β
"Yay? ...... "Great Khan." Although there is no chess, military chess, checkers, and Go that I can't do, there is no good ...... The typical person who is all kinds of loose is me. If you want to learn shogi, the result is the same. And Shikamaru is a genius with an IQ of 200, and even Asma, who has been immersed in this way for many years, can't get off him, I ......
In short, let's set up the chessboard and learn first!
In fact, the most important purpose is that AB once made such a setting, comparing Shikamaru to Katsurama, Asma was sacrificed as a silver general to break into the opponent's camp and become a son, if you want to redeem the fate of Asma's sacrifice, you must understand the rules of shogi!
With such a thought, every time I pick up the "silver general", I hesitate, and as soon as I pick up the "Guima", I can't help but look up at Shikamaru, such a beautiful face, what will it look like when you smoke a cigarette? I hope there will never be a day.
After a day, I finally got used to the Japanese shogi mentality. The shogi, which combines the rules of Chinese chess and chess, is very complicated in terms of both the rules of the line and the rules of promotion (shogi is called "chengzi"), and there is also an additional "holding piece", which makes me often take care of one and lose the other. In the face of my embarrassment and chagrin, Shikamaru was very happy. Although it is a "one-sided" forbearance, I can still be a child from the heart!
"Hey! Thank you so much today! Thanks to you! "Seeing that it was getting dark, I left Shikamaru's house to pick up Aoi.
"Yo! Long? β
"Why is Kakashi here?"
"Ah, passing by~~"
What's the matter?,It's clear that I'm here to pick up Aoi.γ This man also has a gentle side!
"That...... Aoi is a newcomer, and you, the initiator, should also take on the responsibility of guardianship! β
"Ahem, that's right~"
As he spoke, school ended, and Aoi walked out of the middle of a group of children.
"Aoi, how was your day?"
"Well, that's good. It's just that I'm much older than the rest of my classmates, so it's awkward......"
"Hehe, it doesn't matter, when you are older, your ability to learn and understand is strong, and you can soon catch up with the students in the advanced class, and when the time comes, you can skip a grade."
"Yes, I must work hard!"
"That...... You and Kakashi go to dinner first, I'm going to buy something. β
After a while, when I came out of the store, I saw two people sitting in a ramen restaurant.
"Uncle, beef ramen!" I sat next to Aoi.
"Well, you know what? You're living in Naruto's house now, and he's going to eat ramen the most. β
"Hmm, Kakashi-sensei told me! I would also like! β
"Aoi, do you know how to play shogi?"
"Look at my father, a little."
That's great! I'm worried about who will be the right beginner for my beginner level!
"So! From today onwards, come play shogi with me! In exchange, I'll accompany you to cultivate, okay? β
Aoi nodded in agreement. Kakashi gave me a puzzled look.
"Shogi?"
I smiled mysteriously, "Will you go down?" β
"Huh? Yes, yes, though, in terms of interest......"
"Who! You have to promise me that you will accompany me in the next game in the future! β
"Oh......"
After eating, he went to Naruto's house with Aoi, and took out his chess equipment with great interest and began to practice.
It feels so good to rack your brains!
Aoi's brain is also good, and I gradually feel that this kid's talent doesn't seem to be below Kakashi. To paraphrase Naruto, he has Shikamaru's wisdom, Xiao Li's physical skills, his tooth sharpness, and his own blood limit. Although all of this has not yet been revealed, with continuous cultivation and growth, this son must not be a thing in the pool!
"That...... Aoi, it's not clear yet, what exactly is your blood inheritance? β
"My bloodline is the orc transformation. In the transformed state, you can have the speed and strength of a beast, and give full play to the instincts of beasts, such as the maximization of smell, sight, and hearing. However, I don't know what will appear at the end of the blood relay. β
"Blood-to-terminal?"
"Hey, it is said that the biggest special thing about the Hino family's blood inheritance is that the person who inherits the blood inheritance limit will develop different terminals. The terminal represents the ultimate form of transformation. I don't know what I'm going to end up with. β
"Why is this happening?"
"That's because the blood of our people is always shed with the blood of wild beasts. Depending on the beasts that you come into contact with on a daily basis, you will gradually be affected by them, and the power that favors them will be generated, and because of the different life paths of each person, the order of mutation is also different, and it is this kaleidoscopic combination that leads to the difference in the ultimate form. β
"And you're now?"
"What I have now is the speed of a cheetah, the strength of a grizzly bear and the wrath of a rhinoceros."
"Understood."
"What's going on with Mr. Yoyo's transformation?"
"Ah~ That's a technique, nothing surprising." Said casually.
"It's getting late, I'll come back tomorrow to play chess with you. If you live alone, take care of yourself! If you have any questions, just come to the teacher. Don't look at Kakashi's appearance, in fact, it's also very reliable! β
"Yes! I see, please don't worry. β
When I returned to the dormitory, my mind was still full of shogi and shogi.
For what, exactly?
Asma seems to have foreshadowed her departure, and what did Shikamaru say?
By the way, what he said was: "All of a sudden, you use 'Silver General'?" Take your time, there's still time anyway! β
Asma replied, "This is the vanguard of the enemy's formation, and there are occasional instructions for this." β
So, because you have to take the risk of attacking before the enemy?
Therefore, it is necessary to slow down the enemy's footsteps!
That's it. Akatsuki's goal is to collect tailed beasts from all over Japan! Then, I have to stop this matter, and I must unite the forces of all those who have tailed beasts, and I must not let Xiao achieve his goal!
However, I don't know anything about the tailed beast except that Naruto has the Nine-Tails sealed in his body and that there is a Moritsuru hidden in my Airo's body.
How do you get started?
It's really nerve-wracking~ It's Jiraiya who investigates this matter, right? I think Konoha information will be sent back often. Well, the only thing left is to go to Tsunade!
I almost didn't sleep all night, and I couldn't wait for dawn, so I ran to the Hokage Mansion, and just waited for Tsunade to show his head behind the window, and then he could rush up.
"Hah! Yoyo-sensei? Is there anything important about coming here so early? β
As a result, the one who opened the window was silent, she was always so diligent!
"Yes, there are important things! Did Tsunade-sama get up? β
"I'm about to call her, please come up first!"
Tsunade ran upstairs, and after waiting for a while, Tsunade appeared yawning:
"Yawn~~ You guys, you don't know how to be considerate at all-yawn."
In fact, Tsunade is already an old woman in her fifties, and besides, she used the "Creation and Regeneration" ninja method in battle, so I don't know how long she has to live? Perhaps, we have all been deceived by her eternally young appearance, and she is already aging inside.
However, there are some things that she has to worry about!
"Tsunade-sama, I'm here to ask to participate in the investigation of 'Akatsuki'!"
"Huh?!" Tsunade stopped yawning, but his mouth opened wider.
"You...... Do you know something? β
"Hmm. There is indeed some understanding. β
"Yoyo~ Sometimes, I think you're terrible~ Tell me, what do you know?"
"I don't know the details, but I know that Xiao's purpose is for the tailed beast."
I don't want to say too much about the specifics. Too much talk can make you lose it all.
"Is it because Itachi has a special interest in Naruto?"
Well, I forgot that it makes sense.
"It's not just Naruto who is in danger, all the human pillar forces will be coveted. To be sure, Akatsuki is searching the world for news about the Tailed Beast and is preparing for the recovery of the Tailed Beast. β
"Tailed beast'sβretracted?"
"Yes. Although it may not be accurate to say this, however, those who have the ability to forcibly convert the human pillar power of tailed beasts are currently the only ones who can be 'Xiao'. β
"You mean to say?!" Tsunade began to sweat.
"Yes. What they are doing is to replace the existing human pillar power and instead master the power of the tailed beast by themselves. β
Therefore, if you want to stop Xiao, you can only find and protect all the human pillars before them.
