On the day that the Water Gate Class was first formed, Obito, Rin, and Kakashi sat out of breath on the grass resting after passing the test of the traditional Konoha bell.

Bo Feng Shuimen, who was seriously discharged from the water, looked at his three subordinates without pressure, and smiled for the next step:

"Well, congratulations, all of you have passed!

The Watergate class was established from today. ”

"Great!"

"Hmm!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Mizuto watched Obito and Rin clap their hands in celebration, Kakashi remained unmoved, and then continued:

"So, now that you have become official ninjas, I will talk about the three most basic principles of being a ninja - the three precepts of ninjas: money lending, women and alcohol."

Watergate raised a finger and said seriously:

"Money borrowing seems to be a very common thing in life.

But for ninjas, it is a big no-no to easily borrow money from others.

Ninjas are paid for their tasks and are fully covered by their normal living expenses.

Unless you encounter an unexpected situation and need money urgently, recurring borrowing can only show that

Your life is too extravagant.

And this, this will only make a ninja lose his vigilance and discipline.

Losing your vigilance can make you die easily, and losing discipline can make you easily degenerate. ”

In the early morning of February 10, Konoha 48, the spring cold was steep, and the morning fog filled the air.

Orochimaru had already walked out of the house, walking alone in the silent suburbs, destined for his hidden private laboratory.

He suddenly looked up, and the oval moon in the sky had faded.

Have you ever seen Konoha Village at four o'clock in the morning? Orochimaru has seen it, seen it many times......

A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth:

"Come out, for people like you and me, there's no point in hiding and hiding."

As he spoke, his hands were secretly gathered together to prepare for the seal.

"Don't be nervous."

A vicissitudes of life but a playful voice came from behind Orochimaru, and a hand was already on his shoulder.

Orochimaru jerked forward with a teleportation technique, then turned back vigilantly.

A man in a blue robe with a white three-hooked jade stood in place.

"Tsk, you seem to have mastered the habits of snakes.

Be vigilant and never put yourself in a dangerous situation. ”

Orochimaru's vertical pupils suddenly widened, and an expression of surprise appeared on his face:

"It's you?! The one who has mastered Mu Dun and Writing Wheel Eye! ”

The masked man nodded, stretched out a hand, and held in his hand the corpse of a small white snake with a few wooden thorns stuck in its body.

"You put this thing on Beryuhu."

Orochimaru nodded, with an evil smile on the corner of his mouth:

"Looks like you know a lot about me, so why don't you introduce yourself?"

The masked man threw the white snake to the ground in disgust:

"It doesn't matter if you tell you, I'm Madara Uchiha, one of the founders of this village."

Orochimaru's eyes looked at him even more fanatically:

"If you're not lying, you're almost 90 years old by now!

I can still maintain my body and strength in the prime of life......"

"Do you want to learn?"

"Of course!"

"Why should I teach you ......"

"Haha...... It's really funny, and your personality has changed a lot? ”

Orochimaru let out his trademark hoarse laugh, then looked at Madara:

"Actually, I can probably guess some information......

Back then, you managed to get the cells of the first generation of Pillar Lords, right?

Otherwise, how could you easily use this extremely difficult to awaken blood succession like Mu Dun? ”

"Madara" nodded:

"Ape Fei Ri slashed that little ghost, it seems that he has accepted a great disciple."

At the mention of the teacher's name, Orochimaru's face showed a hint of gloom that was not easy to detect:

"Well, then, you're not coming to me today to compliment me like this!"

"Yes, my purpose in looking for you is very simple, to make a deal."

"Deal?"

A sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth under the mask of "Madara":

"You, and Shimura Danzo, have reached a bottleneck in the research of intercolumnar cells!"

Orochimaru's face became even more gloomy, and he said as he prepared for battle:

"It seems that you know a lot about Konoha's information!

So, what is the content of the transaction? ”

"I can give you a better sample of inter-column cells.

As for the price, for the time being, it is to provide me with all the information and movements of Shimura Danzou and his roots.

Also, I won't allow you to hand over the samples we worked on to Tuanzang! ”

"Wait, why should I believe that the sample you provided is superior to that provided by Tuanzang?"

"Madara" scratched his head without any master's temperament, and then said:

"It's easy to do!"

I saw him turn around, raise his mask, raise one of his hands in front of his eyes, and simply seal the other hand.

Tiny flames erupted from his mouth, igniting the palm he held in front of him.

Orochimaru looked at the mask-wearing "Madara" with a bewildered expression, turned around, and looked at himself calmly with his hand that was already covered with flames......

"Look, it doesn't hurt at all, and you can still move!"

As he spoke, he clenched his fists.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I said, "Burn your sleeves again......"

"Ahh Worst! This is the only new outfit! ”

"Madara" hurriedly lowered his sleeve to his elbow, then continued to clench his fists:

"Look, it's all burnt."

"Ahh Obito-sama, it's a little painful......"

"Shut up!"

Orochimaru swallowed his saliva with difficulty and nodded:

"I believe you......"

"Actually, I can hold on a little longer!"

0517 can't help but complain about the soul:

"Enough! Accept the supernatural powers, you, I look at it and it hurts for Ah Fei! ”

The flames on Madara's hand were extinguished instantly, his sleeve fell, and then his whole hand gradually detached from his arm and fell to the ground as if it had been burned......

"Now, this is the hand."

I said...... Are you really sure to mention these conditions? ”

"That's all I can think of for the time being, old man."

Orochimaru looked at Madara suspiciously, and he suddenly felt that the intercolumnar cells did not seem to have an effect on the atrophied brain......

Is there any difference between this and giving for nothing?

Intelligence or something, you killed the group to hide my birds......

Moreover, why should I share the intercolumnar cells that I deceived with my ability......

No matter how you look at the intercolumnar cells provided by this product, there are problems! Could it be filled with water?

Although he was puzzled, Orochimaru still picked up the still shaking hand on the ground, and then opened his mouth to swallow it in front of Madara......

"Damn, this product tastes really heavy!"

"En, Ah Fei, I think so!"

After Orochimaru swallowed the sample, he looked at "Madara" with a very contractual spirit:

"How can I pass on the information to you?"

"I'll send someone to you regularly."

"Well, if there's nothing else to do, I'll take my leave......"

Looking at the big snake pill that turned back three times in one step, "Madara" suddenly remembered something:

"Ah, yes, there's one more thing!"

Orochimaru looked at Madara warily.

"That...... Can you add another one, give some cash, old man, I don't have a lot of money lately......"

After Orochimaru walked away, Obito was still counting the small money in the same place.

"This guy is really generous, it's 500,000 taels as soon as he makes a shot."

"Is that all you seek?! What about the spirit of carrying darkness and cherishing the world in the previous chapter?! ”

The eyes exposed on the Obito mask narrowed slightly:

"I just, I can't bear to kill him like this......"

He looked up, looked at the rising sun, and then disappeared into the swirling cracks.

The next moment, he appeared at Lynn's doorstep, and the familiar scene reminded him of the old days......

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” memories kills β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

Mr. Watergate raised his second finger, glanced apologetically at a somewhat angry Lynn, and continued:

"Second precept, woman.

To be exact, it means that as a ninja you have to control your desires (understand, I don't want to be 404). ”

Mizuto suddenly scratched his head, looking at the ignorant Obito and Rin a little embarrassed, and Kakashi with a look of me who knew everything.

"Seemingly...... Looks like this topic is a little too early for you.

In short, you have to remember that when you grow up, you can't let loose as a ninja, especially Obito and Kakashi! ”

Kakashi retorted with a rare raise of his hand:

"I heard that your teacher is also ...... you."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Haha, this one. There are always some special cases, and teachers are not comparable to ordinary people. ”

Watergate felt that he couldn't make it up anymore, and it was a shame to have such a teacher.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

Obito crouched against the wall, holding a small pebble in his hand and gently throwing it at the window of Lynn's room.

The girl rubbed her eyes and opened the window, and saw Obito squatting on the opposite wall:

He was dressed in a blue robe of his own making, with a strange mask on top of his head, and looked at himself with a smirk on his face......

A few minutes later, in the Kamui space.

Obito and Rin sat hand in hand on the ground overgrown with bellflowers.

Obito pointed to a jar on the side:

"This is the mead I bought, and it is said to be a precious medicinal herb, which is very nourishing.

You must know more than I do, so I'll leave it to you!

Can I give it to my grandma...... And your mother nourishes the body. ”

Lin picked up the jar and sniffed it, then said with a wicked smile:

"I mean, you can't have robbed Tsunade-sama, right......?"

"Huh? How do you know, it's not a robbery, it's a deal, yes, it's a deal! ”

"Tsunade-sama had a very bad temper in the first two days after she came back, and Jiraiya-sama said that she secretly drank the mead that she gave to the newcomer.

Then I was chased by Tsunade-sama and fought all day. ”

Obito looked at Lin wistfully:

"It's good that Mr. Watergate is finally married to Sister Jiu Xinnai!"

"Well, yes. I'm going to attend the ceremony as a relative of the bride in a moment. ”

Lynn ...... I, I'm going to prepare a wedding gift for them today, I'm afraid I won't be able to meet today......"

Lin lowered her head in some frustration, and held a bellflower with both hands:

"And then you're leaving, aren't you?"

Her hands were clenched tightly by Obito, and when she raised her head, Obito looked at her with a flushed face:

"Give me three years! After three years, we are no longer apart!

When the time comes......"

Obito avoided Rin's gaze with some embarrassment:

"We've also reached the age of ...... Haha, would you like to ......"

Lynn's hands wrapped around Obito's body, and she pressed against his body, looking up at him encouragingly:

"Do what you want to do, but don't force yourself to know!

I'll take care of grandma, don't worry.

Remember what we said?

Come on, Obito!

Let me see you as the Hokage and save the world! ”

The girl smiled skillfully, and her posture standing in the sea of purple flowers was firmly imprinted in Obito's mind.

Fast forward to the night of this day, and the magnificent and deadly fireworks over Konoha attracted everyone's attention in an instant.

Ape Fei Ri Slash, who had already returned home, quickly changed into a combat uniform, and several shadows in front of him knelt on one knee.

"Quickly check for suspicious people in the village, and if there is resistance, you will be killed!"

The half-drunk Jilai also woke up instantly, and he channeled out a dozen small toads from Miaomu Mountain and scattered to search for information.

Ordinary villagers didn't notice the special nature of this firework, but just walked out of their homes and looked up at this rare beauty in the sky.

At the ceremony, Jiu Sinai stared at the sky with wide eyes, and a smile just appeared on the corner of her mouth, when suddenly she remembered something, and looked down at Lin with a frown:

"I mean, it's not so much a gift for me and Watergate as it is for you!"

Lin looked at the sky with a happy face, completely ignoring her master's roar.

On the Hokage Cliff, Obito looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction and said softly:

"Let's go, let's go to the next stop."

The White Peerless people dived back into the ground one after another, and the figure with soil slowly disappeared into the whirlpool.

After a while, several ninjas from the roots came here, saw that there was no one, and after a little search, they went to other locations.

At the junction on the outskirts of Konoha Village, the figure of Obito slowly appeared.

Holding a bamboo tube in his hand, he said as he moved quickly:

"Do you really want to drink it? I'm only fourteen! ”

"Did you think about your age when you were flirting with your sister? It's not wordy, how can you say that you have to celebrate such an exciting thing with such a big X?! ”

At the instigation of 0517, Obito finally opened the private mead and tasted it.

"It's so sweet! I like it! ”

There is almost no smell of mead in the mouth, and the mouth of the earth is full of the rich sweet aroma of honey.

However, although the alcohol content of this thing is not high, it has stamina if you drink too much......

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”Memories are here again~β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

Mizumon gestured three fingers and quickly diverted the topic of Jiraiya.

"The third commandment, wine.

In fact, similar to the previous one, the ninja must be absolutely awake except when resting in the village.

Therefore, it is best to drink less alcohol, once you become addicted to alcohol, it is also a very troublesome thing.

But ah, the three of you are still too young for the izakaya to sell you alcohol, just remember this matter, and you need to pay attention to it after the age of twenty. ”

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

The slightly drunk Obito didn't realize that he was drunk for the first time in his life, and he only felt the trees around him move backwards faster and faster......

Obito recalls his experience after being injured in the first battle of Kami-Mubi.

Rin and his own fate, Kakashi, Mizumon-sensei, Sister Kushina, Uncle Dai, everyone's fate has changed because of himself.

"0517, thank you."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ You've got a fake drink, right? ”

"You guy! I'm the one who doesn't say thank you at all, do I? ”

"Not really, why do you say thank you somehow?"

"Because, you guy, you've pulled me back from the brink of hell."

"Oh, then please don't lock me up the next time you go to the Kamui Little Black House with the little girl, okay?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Before you know it, Obito has come to the Valley of the End.

He looked up at the two huge statues facing each other, but he no longer felt that they were unattainable.

Madara, I will surpass you and become the next legend of the Uchiha clan!

"Seeing such a scene, don't you think you should recite two lines of poetry on the spot?"

There was an eager look on his face under the mask of the earth:

"How can the light be enough!"

He strode forward, and as he passed by Loquat Juro, who was resting, he lifted the decapitation knife that was stuck in the ground.

"Borrow a knife!"

He jumped to the surface of the pool under the waterfall in the valley, and then stamped with one hand:

"Mu Dun. The Tree Realm is coming! ”

A flat strip of wood grows out of the water.

Take the soil and carry the knife to step on the tree to the top, and use the knife as a pen to start writing and stopping.

He held a knife in one hand and a bamboo tube in the other, and drank a large sip of wine every few words he wrote.

The golden honey wine flowed into the belly, but the majestic pride remained in the throat.

Eventually, the poem was written, and the bamboo tube was empty.

Obito looked at his work with satisfaction, laughed and threw the bamboo tube away, and turned to leave.

The next day, a search team in Konoha followed the smell of mead to the Valley of the End, and they were stunned by the scene:

In the middle of the lake in front of the statue of the first lord and Madara Uchiha stood a huge wooden raft with the words:

"The heroes of the world are out of my generation, and they are urged by the years of entering the rivers and lakes.

Hongtu hegemony talks and laughs, and it is better than a drunk in life.

Madara Uchiha"
