Chapter 6 Birthday Present
Uzumaki Mito watched the interaction between the four of them with a smile on his face, as if he was watching children play among themselves, "It's okay, it's the first time I've seen Rope Tree say so many words in front of outsiders." I believe you will become very good friends. β
She was very satisfied with Rope Tree's performance, and seeing his ninja qualities under the murderous aura, she forgave Orochimaru for his rude behavior.
"But what Orochimaru said just now makes a lot of sense, and the rope tree is really not simple." Jiraiya walked around the rope tree like a discordant and looked up and down, "Little ghost, if you want to become my disciple, I will train you to be a great ninja!" β
There was a sudden silence in the hall, and everyone was waiting for the rope tree's answer.
Unexpectedly, the rope tree said calmly: "Don't! Please stay away from me, I've heard that idiots are contagious. β
"Boom!" Jiraiya suddenly fell to the ground, "Tsunade! Your brother has such a bad personality! It's even more annoying than you and Orochimaru combined! β
"What did you say?" Tsunade's face was gloomy, and then he stepped on Jiraiya's head, and then crushed it hard, and Jiraiya, who was facing the ground, was powerless to resist, and could only lie on the ground with convulsions on all fours.
The rope tree on the side felt pain when he looked at it, so he stopped it: "Sister, forget it." β
Jiraiya was just a little moved, but when he heard the next sentence, he felt that he was too naΓ―ve.
"He's stupid enough, and if you trample him into a brain-dead person, you'll drag down the whole team, and you'll be very shameless."
"What do you mean by being very shameless? What is dragging? And what the hell is a brain wreck? I'm an eleven-year-old genius who forbears, and I'm a hero! When did you start to look down on yourself even as a one-year-old ghost?" Jilai also roared silently in his heart, but unfortunately he couldn't make a sound at all with his face pressed against the ground.
But Tsunade couldn't hear his heart, and said with a look of agreement: "It makes sense, this idiot is usually troublesome enough. So Shi Shiran withdrew his right foot with an expression of your luck.
In fact, in the original book, Jirai is also a qualified teacher, and his three disciples are Uzumaki Nagato, Ha Feng Mizumon and Uzumaki Naruto, and they have all achieved amazing achievements.
If Rope Tree had come from an ordinary family, he would have readily agreed. But he is now the spiritual symbol of Konoha, the young patriarch of the Thousand Hands Clan, the inheritor of the Will of Fire, and the most orthodox heir of Konoha.
The one who can accept him as an apprentice must be at the level of the Hokage, so that he can bring more prestige to himself, and Jiraiya has not yet obtained the name of the three ninjas, just a genius ninja with a slight reputation, and he is obviously not qualified.
Rope tree's most pleasing apprenticeship object is the third generation of Hokage ape Flying Sun Slash, which can bring him a huge prestige, learning ninjutsu is secondary, with his identity can ask Mito to learn ninjutsu at any time, even if it is the ninjutsu on the Book of Seals, he can learn it at will, because he is the grandson of the first two generations of Hokage, and it is natural to inherit their inheritance.
Time passed in play, and soon it was evening, and when the cake was cut, everyone took out the gifts that had been given to the rope tree.
The doll toys that Jiraiya sent, Orochimaru gave kunai and shuriken, and Tsunade knew that his younger brother liked to collect all kinds of materials, so he gave a small piece of chakra metal. As for the clan whirlpool Mito, she promised to fulfill a small wish of the rope tree as a gift.
Mito looked at his grandson with a loving face and asked, "Say, Rope Tree." What do you want? Is it all those strange materials?" Apparently she knew about her grandson's quirky hobby, and always liked to collect strange things. Just if he was a bright and curious child, full of curiosity about the world.
Just now, the rope tree even collected the hair that fell on the ground and the saliva that Orochimaru was flowing on the ground in front of everyone.
Mito and Tsunade are both accustomed to it, but Orochimaru thinks that the rope tree is very similar to himself, as for Jiraiya? Who cares what he thinks?
Rope Tree pondered for a while, shook his head, and said, "No, I don't have the materials I want very much right now. Will my grandmother grant me anything I ask?"
Although the rope tree speaks very methodically and has mature manners, because his voice has not yet fully developed and changed his voice, his voice is very immature, and he speaks in a milky voice, and the huge contrast makes people laugh.
"Yes, as long as Grandma can do it." Mito, the kind elder, did not laugh at him, but made a promise with a serious look in his eyes.
"I want to learn chakra extraction, can grandma agree?" After saying this, Rope Tree looked at Mito expectantly.
None of the people present expected him to make such a request.
Tsunade was the first to object: "Rope tree that doesn't work!" You're only one year old now, extracting chakra will hurt your body, and in two years, when you grow up, my sister will teach you again, okay?"
"But sister, didn't you also start extracting chakra at the age of 3, and graduated from the ninja school at the age of 6 to become a shinobi? I was told that I looked like a 3-year-old, and that I was smarter than them! "Because of the exchange of the Asura bloodline, coupled with the intentional training of the rope tree, and the fact that he has received sufficient nutrition from the food he consumes on weekdays, his body is relatively tall and looks like a three- or four-year-old child.
"But you're only 1 year old, it's dangerous to do this, in case you ......" Tsunade was still not at ease, and tried to continue to persuade.
"Alright, Tsunade." Mito interrupted her by saying something, then looked at Rope Tree and said, "Rope Tree, you are a smart child, and you have always been very assertive. Can you tell grandma why she is in such a hurry to learn chakra extraction in advance because she is curious?"
Rope knew that if he used curiosity as an excuse again, Mito would definitely not agree to his request today, it was a matter of his own survival, and if he could practice two years in advance, he would definitely be able to gain more strength and make more preparations. Two years is enough for him to do a lot, so he can't afford to miss this opportunity.
Rope took a deep breath and said with a serious face: "No, grandma! Not because of curiosity such superficial emotions! It's for power! I want to gain power and become a ninja! β
The reactions of everyone present to his answer were mixed.
Jiraiya frowned, Tsunade looked worried, and Orochimaru stuck out his tongue with a shiny eye, looking like he was going to eat the rope tree.
Mito put away his smile when he heard this, his face was serious, and his tone unconsciously came sternly: "Rope tree! Why do you want to gain power? What do you want to do with your strength?"
Knowing that it had reached a critical moment and that the success or failure of his plan was at stake, he looked at Mito with a firm look in his eyes and said, "Because this village is grandpa's treasure!" I must protect the village for my grandfather! I have to become the most powerful ninja, the Hokage, to protect my grandfather's treasure! β
