Chapter 493: Three Years

The private meeting between Gu Shanbushui and Hinata Hinata Hinata no one knows what they talked about, and it is impossible to eavesdrop anyway.

For Konoha Village, I really want to know what the two families have planned.

If it weren't for the fact that it wasn't good to ask directly, Tsunade would have come to the door and asked directly.

During the period when the "King of Fighters" Challenge was being held, Hinata Hinata and his three daughters appeared in many public occasions in a very high-profile manner, which made many internal and external eyeliners cheer up.

Coupled with the news that Furusugi and Hinata decided to marry from time to time in the past two years, everyone can be regarded as finding the key point.

The marriage between the two clans has been passed down for generations, and this time, is it finally true?

Although the gossip is everywhere, no one has ever affirmed or denied it in a serious way, so it is just a rumor after all.

Even though many big names in the ninja world already know that this is true, the general public doesn't know.

In several public activities of the New Year, Gu Shanbushui, who never invited outsiders, also let Hinata Hinata and her three daughters watch, which attracted the attention of many people.

The future housewife of the Gusugi family, it is better not to be a ninja, but if it is the daughter of the Hyuga sect, then the situation is different.

The status of the ninja clan at this level is already higher than that of many small country daimyos, and there are so many thousand-year-old families in the ninja world, such as Hinata, Senju and Uchiha, etc., which are different from the ninjas who are generally not on the stage.

After half a month of lively days, the guests gradually dispersed, and the people of the Hyuga family were ready to leave home.

Gu Shanbushui himself found a slightly drunk old man in a tavern on the island.

Because there is an illusion that neglects attention on his body, not many people pay attention to it, and Young Governor Gushan will come to this kind of place to find someone.

"Yo, long time no see."

"Huh? It's you, Bu Shui."

The bad old man seemed to have just come to his senses, and with a clear gaze that was not commensurate with his identity, he glanced at Gu Shanbushui,

"I thought no one would recognize it."

"It's Hiiragi who said that he felt the chakra of an acquaintance, but he couldn't remember who it was."

"That little one. When I died, was she three or four years old? She still remembers me, and it's really not in vain that I love her so much."

That's right, the old man in front of him, who seems to be inconspicuous at all, is the ancestor of the daimyo who faked his death back then.

In order to satisfy the other party's wishes, Gu Shanbushui and his family never took the initiative to investigate anything, let alone disturb the other party's new life.

From the current point of view, this old man's life seems to be quite comfortable.

"When you're older, drink less."

"I'm glad to see my great-grandson, and the betrothed person is also a very good little girl."

"Both of them are young."

"What do you know?"

The old man was not affected by the might of the person in front of him in the slightest, and said to himself,

"When Kirou was full moon, I also saw it from afar, and there were Chinatsu and Ikki, how they looked at school, they looked serious at a glance, too much like their father when he was a child."

"If you miss it so much, I'll give you a convenient position."

"No, I'm tired of living like that for a long time, and now, life is good, free."

"I don't know what you live by, it's too hard, I won't agree."

"With a few old people who also have free time, I formed a small business association for recycling waste supplies, repairing and selling, and making some hard-earned money."

"Scavenging, collecting rags?"

Gu Shanbushui couldn't help frowning, and was about to do something, but was stopped by the old man in front of him.

"Don't mess around, you kid. In our line of work, although we are tired and dirty, we can be regarded as self-reliant in the end, and we are different from the guy who begs for alms with a broken bowl. I didn't know before, the recycling of waste items is actually quite profitable, our old men, in addition to supporting themselves, still send a few to the family, and the rest, treat yourself

Spend yourself and go to some famous mountains and rivers to enjoy the fun."

"Where can you do this?"

"If others can do it, I can't?"

The old man glared at Gu Shanbushui,

"When I was still a big name, it was difficult to find a friend who could chat freely, drink and eat meat, and say a few words of truth, but now, a few friends are busy and tired, find a place to get together, you can have fun for a long time, chat about your experience, share your experience, what you see and hear, how good."

"I thought you had arranged for yourself to be a little nobleman, and you have been living a life of recuperation and recuperation."

"I'm thinking about it, I'm tired of staying for a long time. Especially when there is nothing to do, I feel even more bored."

"You are all old, although your body has improved a lot, it is still not comparable to young people, you should take it easy, don't be tired."

"I know, life, you have to do what you can, after all, I am also a damned person who has repeatedly jumped on the death line, and escaped a catastrophe, and the rest of my life should be cherished."

Speaking of the past, the old man was also very embarrassed,

"Okay, if it's superfluous, I won't say it, I've already met Xiao Liuli and Zhengcheng, and Zhiji and his family are also doing well, so I'm satisfied. The older people get, the more worried they are about their children's unfilial piety and family discord, but fortunately, you are not short-sighted people who are so shallow as to quarrel over petty profits, and the thing of fighting in the same room should not happen."

"Look at what you said, in fact, this kind of situation rarely happens in our family, right?"

"That's right."

The old man happily scratched the back of his head, and at this time, Gu Shanbushui noticed that although his grandfather's hair was a little messy and the texture of his clothes was very ordinary, he was very clean and meticulously cared for.

This also fully reflects his persistence and style as a nobleman.

Although I don't understand why the old man would do such a thing as "scavenging", Gu Shanbushui is not particularly worried, from his words, Gu Shanbushui roughly heard that this seems to be a group similar to "mutual aid and poor travel", and the identity and status in it are not ordinary, and it is estimated that there is not only one grandfather.

It's not that you want to deliberately pretend to be poor, but you want to experience the free and easy temperament of doing it yourself, having enough food and clothing, relying on your own labor income, traveling all over the country, and seeing thousands of miles of rivers and mountains.

Of course, when did such a strange group emerge in the ninja world, Gu Shanbushui didn't know anything about it, and it was a little strange.

However, there is no need to investigate this little thing seriously, since my grandfather wants to play, let him go.

Of course, it is inevitable to arrange one or two good hands to protect secretly afterwards.

After sending the old man away, Gu Shanbushui went outside for a casual stroll, and then went home lightly.

"Father, father, did you find it?"

After discovering an abnormality on the road a few days ago, he told Gu Shanbu Shui to let the little Hiiragi who helped to ask, and ran over impatiently.

"What kind of person is it?"

"It's a relative of our family, I hugged you when I was a child, and gave you a lot of delicious food, I like it so much."

"No wonder, I just say there's a sense of déjà vu. It turned out to be an acquaintance from childhood, but now, gone?"

"Hmm! Everyone is busy and has to go to work. And a few of you, you have to take care of yourself and prepare to leave for Konoha Village, school is about to start, don't be late."

"Got it. Why are Chinatsu and Ikki able to go to Inaba Academy, we have to go to Konoha Village so far away, although, I heard that Inaba Academy is also quite boring, but it's close to home."

Speaking of this, Xiao Hiiragi was full of helplessness, among the students of the same level, there was no one competing on the same stage, so naturally there was no friendship fetters.

If it weren't for the fact that Xiaojing and Xiaosi's two younger sisters were often together, and there were a few companions and servants who could say a few words, it would not be boring

He's dead.

-----------------

At the end of March and the beginning of April, the island has already bloomed in spring, and the hot wind blows frequently, and Konoha Village has just ushered in spring back to the earth.

The plum blossoms are in full bloom, the best cherry blossom season has passed, and some of the bustling streets of Konoha Village are still dressed in thick cloth, while others have changed into light clothes.

For ninjas, a ninja vest that is similar all year round can already alleviate too many difficulties in choosing clothing styles.

It was on such a day, an ordinary day that no one deliberately paid attention to, that Jiraiya and Naruto Uzumaki returned to Konoha Village.

Naruto Uzumaki was the first time he had left Konoha Village for so long, and after he came back, many places had changed a lot, and Naruto Uzumaki, who was already a little unfamiliar, didn't know where to go for a while.

Of course, in Konoha Village, it is definitely impossible for a mysterious ninja to suddenly appear and wander around.

The Shadow Department and the "Root" organization will judge the identity as soon as possible, and only after confirming that there is no threat will they ignore some of Naruto Uzumaki's actions.

Walking on the once familiar street, the blonde boy who hadn't met an acquaintance for a long time suddenly felt a chill, and then, when he turned his head, he saw a chubby big cat, and a few shinobi who jumped out and threw it to the ground.

"Little Tiger, and Konohamaru?"

Konohamaru, who is already a ninja, has now embarked on the stage of constantly brushing low-level tasks and accumulating qualifications, and everyone has come over like this, so they naturally understand what this team is doing.

"Hey, Brother Naruto, it looks a little familiar from a distance, but it's really you. I didn't expect you to come back......

"yes."

has grown a lot, and Naruto Uzumaki is still a little proud.

Especially the huge increase in height, the dwarf winter melon, which was once inconspicuous among his peers, has passed three years, and now he is a handsome young man with a very heroic spirit.

Time, it's really a pig-killing knife, the baby's fat face back then, shaved off the excess meat, and after it is elongated, it is still a little interesting.

That's right, Bo Feng Shuimen and Uzumaki Kushina's appearance is already good, and their son should not be much worse, as long as Naruto Uzumaki grows up, he is also a handsome guy.

"Welcome back, Brother Naruto. Originally, I still had a lot to say, but I had to hand in the task, so let's talk about it when I have time."

Konoha Village, who was talking, took his friends and grabbed Xiaohu and walked to the mission hall.

"The little guy who used to drag his nose and play ninja games also endured it."

Thinking of this, Naruto Uzumaki felt a little emotional, and a little regretful, the middle ninja exam that year was interrupted because of a sudden accident, which caused many people to not get the opportunity to perform, so they were not promoted to middle ninja, and now three years have passed, and I don't know how the former little friend is now.

Before meeting the next wave of acquaintances, Naruto Uzumaki still likes to stand on a high place, overlooking this small town with a little strangeness in the familiar.

On the other side, Jiraiya returned to the Hokage's house and handed over the long-term task of protecting the pillar force to Tsunade, and the burden on his shoulders was finally a little easier.

"Thank you for your hard work, these past few years."

"The same goes for you."

Jiraiya smiled heartily,

"The Hokage is not an idle profession, especially with so much trouble inside and outside, and you have to fight many people with wits and courage."

"It's alright."

In front of acquaintances, Tsunade's performance was a little wanton, and he couldn't help but stretch his waist to soothe his emotions,

"It's okay on the outside, there are a lot of unpredictable threats, everyone is more restrained, inside, I don't know if this old guy has changed his personality or is ready to retire to save his character, it's not like he is himself, and other things are also very cooperative with my work, and he has done a lot of good things inside and out."

"Why, it's not enough to do good deeds? In the end, he is also a meritorious veteran of the village, and he knows how to prioritize things."

"Hopefully."

class

Hand also knew that he was too demanding of the advisor elders, but deep down, there was still a lingering worry in his heart, but he couldn't find the reason.

"Don't talk about that, during this time, the ninja world has changed too much, I feel that Konoha Village is a little difficult to support, and it is necessary to hold a Five Shadows Conference to discuss countermeasures, what do you think?"

"Indeed, it's time."

Because Sand Hidden Village has not been able to elect the five generations of the Wind Shadow for a long time, the so-called Five Shadows Conference naturally can't be opened, in order not to embarrass the allies, for more than three years, there has not been a single Five Shadows Conference, except for the period of the Ninja World War, which is relatively rare.

Whether it's the matter of Iyo Province, the Akatsuki organization's capture of tailed beasts, and dealings with the world, etc., how to deal with it is no longer a problem that Konoha ninjas can deal with alone.

"Also, what are you going to do when you come back?" It's not like before, you can't go out for a year and a half and never come back, right?"

"Not this time. I'm going to actually see what the dangers are in the Order, especially their mysterious leader."

"Land of Rain?"

Tsunade frowned slightly,

"The incident of encountering Madara Uchiha's filthy earth body has not brought you a warning yet? There are too many dangerous characters in the ninja world. Let's not neglect to protect ourselves......

"But...... There are some things that someone has to do, and it is impossible to really know nothing about it, so just go to war, right?"

Zilai also spread his hands helplessly.
