"I'm going to get off the boat, let me get off the boat, uncle, uh-huh..." A ship floated on the sea, sailing towards Hongzhou Island, the sea was rough, the boat kept rocking left and right, and Serena, who was already suffering from motion sickness, immediately fell to the ground weakly after getting on the boat.

"Little brother, bear with me, we are about to arrive at Hongzhou Island." The captain looked at the seasick Serena and hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him.

"Hmm, it's been seven days, hmm, hasn't it arrived yet?" Serena covered her mouth as she was about to vomit, and asked the captain with difficulty about the voyage.

"Alas! Brother, bear with me for a few more hours, I'll go out and have a look, so as not to deviate from the route. With that, the captain left the room where Serena was resting.

"Hmm, I'll never take a boat again." A big wave hit, the boat shook more and the Serena became more uncomfortable, and the boat gradually approached Red State Island with Serena seasick.

"Stopped, resurrected!" Serena immediately got up and rushed to the deck.

The captain was about to go to Serena's room to inform him that he had arrived at Red State Island, but he didn't expect Serena to rush to the deck and said in surprise: "Little brother, are you all right so soon?" No more uncomfortable? ”

"Uncle, I'm feeling very good now, have I arrived at Hongzhou Island?"

"That's right, this is Hongzhou Island, an island rich in medicinal materials, I think the medicinal materials that the little brother wants to pick must be stored on this island."

"Really? Uncle, I'm on the island, goodbye! Serena took his leave of the captain and jumped straight off the deck and ran towards the interior of Red State.

"What an energetic young ninja, hey! Hurry up and drop anchor, we still have to go to the island to buy medicinal herbs from those merchants. Hearing this, the crew quickly threw the anchor into the water and lowered the planks used to disembark.

"Where does the hibiscus grow? Someone should be asked. As she walked, Serena pondered how to find the hibiscus.

"Goo・・・・・・!" There was a rumbling sound in Serena's stomach.

"My stomach is already growling with hunger, and when it comes to the days on the ship, it seems that I haven't eaten properly, so let's find a place to eat first." Serena made his way towards the town on the island of Red State.

"Hmmm! The takoyaki here tastes good, and the boss will have another plate. Serena's table was already filled with empty plates, and the diners around him were all watching in amazement as Serena frantically ate.

The boss smiled and brought a plate of takoyaki to the table in Serena, "Of course, our Hongzhou Island is an island, surrounded by the sea, of course, there is no shortage of fresh seafood, you should be the first time to come to Hongzhou Island, do you want to try our sashimi here, to ensure freshness." ”

"Forget it, I'm not interested in sashimi, I'll eat takoyaki instead. By the way, boss, do you know where hibiscus flowers grow? ”

When the boss heard this, his face changed greatly, and he said palely: "Little brother, you shouldn't have come to Hongzhou Island to pick hibiscus flowers?" ”

"That's right, I'm here to pick hibiscus flowers."

"Little brother, I advise you to go back, now the hibiscus flowers on Hongzhou Island can no longer be picked."

Serena wondered: "Why? Could it be that the hibiscus flower is extinct? ”

The boss explained: "No, I heard that the mountain peak rich in hibiscus flowers was occupied by a monster, and many Shang Ren also went up the mountain to pick hibiscus flowers after the monster occupied the peak, but no one came down the mountain alive, and over time, it became a forbidden place, and no one went there again." ”

"Really? Seems to be interesting, boss, where are the peaks? "Serena heard that there were monsters on the mountain and became interested in the mountain where hibiscus flowers grow.

"It's really funny, a little ghost who doesn't have any hair, actually wants to pick hibiscus flowers, it's not a place where you can go, you better go home and find your mother to drink milk."

Serena looked at the source of the voice and found that it was a young man wearing a forehead guard with the word "Shang", and sarcastically said, "Who are you?" Dare to wear a ninja's special forehead guard on his head and pretend to be a ninja. ”

"What are you talking about, little ghost? This is our Shang Ren special forehead guard, my name is Yamazaki, but the Shang Ren of Shang Ren, little ghost, you speak carefully. ”

"Shang Ren? Haven't heard of it. I don't even know anything Yamazaki. Serena heard Yamazaki's answer and plucked her ears in disdain.

Hearing this, Yamazaki stood up from the table angrily, "What an arrogant little ghost, since you dare to look down on Uncle Yamazaki, I will educate you well today." Yamazaki threw a punch at Serena.

"The Iron Fist of the Fire Dragon!" Seeing that Yamazaki was actually attacking him, Serena stood up and smashed his flaming fist into Yamazaki's right cheek.

"Bump!" Yamazaki was hit by a punch from Serena, directly broke the glass, flew out of the window, fainted on the street, and the crowd who was watching the excitement were all stunned by Serena's punch, you must know that the person he just knocked out was not an ordinary person, it was a shinobi.

"It's really a disappointment, the boss checks out, and by the way, tell me how to go to that mountain?"

"Oh, the peak where hibiscus flowers grow is the highest mountain on Hongzhou Island, little brother, are you really going to go?"

"Of course, this is the purpose of my visit to Hongzhou Island, to give you money." Serena checked out the restaurant and headed to the highest mountain.

"Wait a minute, how about I show you the way?" A teenager runs out of the restaurant with a little loli and catches up with Serena.

Serena looked at the two people who were about the same age as himself and said, "Who are you?" Why lead the way for me. ”

"My name is Bandong, this is my sister Banchun, you just knocked Kaminobu Yamazaki unconscious without much effort, you should be very strong."

Serena said proudly: "Of course, I am very strong, you haven't sued me yet, why should you lead the way for me." ”

"I want you to kill the lion, and my parents were killed by that lion."

"Lions? Is it the monster that occupies that mountain? ”

"That's right, it's not a monster at all, it's a powerful psychic beast, it suddenly came here during the Second Ninja War, my parents were killed by the golden lion because they went up that mountain to pick hibiscus, you are so strong, you can definitely kill that lion."

"Psychic beasts? Interesting, is it because of the death of the master? In that case, show me the way. ”

"Sister, you go home first, I'll be back soon." Banchun clenched Bandong's sleeve and refused to let go, "Brother, don't go, Banchun doesn't want to lose his relatives." ”

"Sister, be obedient, I'll be back soon." Bandong saw that his sister refused to leave, so he hurriedly persuaded his sister to go home.

Seeing this, Serena also stepped forward and persuaded: "Don't worry, with me protecting him, he will definitely be fine." ”

"But..." Sakaharu was still very hesitant to hear Serena's words, and he was reluctant to leave.

Seeing this, Bandong straightened his face, "Banchun, go home, don't you listen to your brother." ”

"What's fierce, go home, go home, my brother is the most annoying." Banharu ran away angrily.

Bandong looked at Banchun who was running away and was very helpless, and said to Serena: "Let's go." Bando began to guide Serena to the peak where the hibiscus was, not noticing a small figure following the two, but Serena did.

Serena deliberately slowed down and asked, "Bandong, your sister is very cute, you just said that about her, what if she ignores you in the future?" ”

"No, although my sister is willful, she still has a good personality, and she won't ignore me because of this little thing."

Hearing this, Serena glanced in the direction where Banharu was, "Well, your sister is indeed very willful. ”

When Banchun saw Serena turn around, he immediately hid, "Why did he turn around just now, did he find me." Banharu stretched out his head and looked forward, and was relieved to find that Serena hadn't come, "It's not found, doesn't it seem that the ninja is nothing great?" Banchun cautiously continued to follow behind the two.

"By the way, I've been talking to you for a long time, and I don't know what your name is." Bandong suddenly remembered that he didn't know the other party's name, and hurriedly asked.

"Oh, my name is Hachiki Serena and I'm a ninja of Konoha."

Bandong was surprised when he heard this: "Konoha Village, the head of the five ninja villages, no wonder Serena you are so strong at such a young age, you deserve to be Konoha." I also want to be a ninja. ”

"Bandong, if you want to become a ninja, you have to work hard to cultivate, I believe that from now on, as long as you cultivate well, you will definitely become a ninja."

The two of them talked and laughed all the way to the peak, followed by a small tail, and finally reached the bottom of the mountain two hours later.

"Serena, this is the peak where the hibiscus flower grows, and the psychic beast is in this peak."

"In that case, let's go in, and I'll help you deal with the lion." Serena was the first to enter the mountain.
