Konoha Thief

Chapter 4 On the way
Ninjas are the most mobile existence in the ninja world, excluding some psychic beasts. Therefore, Natsuki's new team leader Aoki Gennosuke plans to try to reach the border camp before tomorrow night.

"It's a bit rushed, but it's just for training!"

Aoki Gennosuke said briskly.

"Training? But I've become a ninja?!"

Kuno Kuroyu was puzzled and surprised when he heard the words.

"As a civilian ninja, you have to work harder! Kuno-kun!"

Gennosuke Aoki frowned but said earnestly: "The world of ninjas is not a ninja school. Maybe your grades were outstanding in the ninja school, but in the world of ninjas, that is nothing. Powerful ninjutsu, weird Illusions, physical techniques, sword techniques, and even secret techniques to defeat the enemy emerge in endlessly. For those of us ninjas without family inheritance, the only way out is to work harder than others! Remember my words, Kuno!"

"Yes Yes!"

Kuno Heiyu was a little confused by the sudden solemnity of the young Zhongren, at this moment he came back to his senses and responded loudly.

"Hehe! Actually, you can call me Teacher Aoki."

Gennosuke Aoki rubbed Kuno Kuroyu's hair, and said with a smile: "If the battle had not reached a critical moment, as a freshly graduated jinnin, usually a high ninja or a special high ninja would lead the team as the team leader and guide Teacher, impart deeper ninja abilities..."

"But you're just a Chunin?!"

Kuno Heiyu seemed to have discovered some secret suddenly, and exclaimed.

"Hey! You brat!"

Gennosuke Aoki pressed Kuno Kuroba's head pretending to be annoyed, and snorted, "Even if I am a Chunin, I am qualified to teach you a lesson! So, call me teacher!"

"Woooo! Teacher!"

Clutching his head and hurriedly dodging, Kuno Heiyu shouted reluctantly with an angry face.

"Don't be so reluctant. Although I'm only a chunin, I'm experienced and good at martial arts and wind escape. It's very easy to teach you."

Aoki Gennosuke folded his arms and raised his head and said proudly.

"Wow! It's amazing!"

Kuno Kuroyu deliberately pretended to be shocked and exaggerated.

"Hahaha! Hahaha!"

Being overwhelmed by the praise of sincerity worthy of consideration, Aoki Gennosuke suddenly raised his head triumphantly and laughed.

'Well!Withdrawing the previous reliable evaluation? '

Xia Shu, who was watching the whole process, twitched the corner of his mouth, thinking hesitantly.

"Matsuzaki-kun is the same, this is training for the two of you."

"Yes, Teacher Aoki!"

Xia Shu smiled purely and nodded heavily.

"Ok!"

Gennosuke Aoki nodded in satisfaction, and then looked at Kosuke Maruhoshi who was carrying the ladle.

"The old man will follow closely."

Maruhoshi Kosuke, who is still not as old as he will be in the future, said with a kind smile.

"Very good! Let's go then!"

Before the words fell, Gennosuke Aoki grinned heartily, and suddenly his figure flashed out.

"Wow! Teacher Aoki, you're lying!"

Kuno Heiyu was stunned for a moment, then gradually stunned, the handsomeness he had pretended before completely dissipated, and then he realized that he jumped and shouted angrily, and hurriedly chased after him.

"senior."

Xia Shu gave a slight nod to the middle-aged man beside him, and then chased after him.

So Kosuke Maruyoshi assumed the position of the rear wing.

Starting from Muye Village, heading west by south, with the ninja's unique traveling skills, it is still a big challenge to arrive within two days.

But as Aoki Gennosuke said, this is also a test for Natsuki and Kuno Kuroyu, and some pressure is necessary.

After crossing a large plain and wilderness, two rivers, one mountain and three villages, and then entering a jungle, the sun has gradually set to the west.

The warm yellow golden glow was shattered by the shadows of the whirling trees, and scattered on the wet grassland in a mottled manner. The stream in the forest was ding-ding-dong-dong-dong-dong-dong flowing from the cobblestone riverbed, clear and transparent.

Suddenly, a burst of water splashed, breaking the golden sunlight into colorful rainbow lights.

"It's great! Uncle Kosuke!"

Kuno Heiyu, who was squatting by the river with a dignified and silent face, suddenly cried out in surprise.

"Hehe! It seems that we don't have to eat hard dry food."

Aoki Gennosuke stood on the branch with his back against the thick trunk, and said happily when he saw this.

"There are a lot of mushrooms in the forest. With the seasonings you bring with you, you can have fresh fish soup for dinner, haha!"

After catching the big fish that was hoisted, Kosuke Maruyoshi skillfully took off the hook, pulled out a sharp knife, disposed of the fish on the spot, and cleaned it in the river water.

Before that, Kosuke Maruyoshi had already set up the pot, Natsuki was in charge of gathering firewood to burn the boiling stream, Gennosuke Aoki picked up a lot of mushrooms, and the young man with good common sense naturally did not pick up poisonous mushrooms.

The aroma of mushroom soup permeated the stream, adding the aroma of fish at this time. Gu Jie took out a few bottles and cans and sprinkled them into the pot, adding to the taste immediately.

"Wow! It smells so good! Thanks to the senior."

The aroma of the fish soup burst out completely the moment Kosuke picked up the lid, Natsuki divided half of the chakra stored in his body into the bottomless pit of 'Dimensional Thief Hand', and then came to the steaming pot , with a sincere admiration.

"Hehe! You're welcome."

Kosuke Maruhoshi smiled kindly and said that even though the bandaging of his left eye made him look extraordinarily majestic, it disappeared under this sincere and warm smile.

Then the four of them shook off their cheeks and started eating, and Maruyoshi Kosuke ate the least. After all, the peak age of the body has passed, the amount of chakra has decreased, and the energy required for eating has also decreased.

So the one who ate the most was of course Gennosuke Aoki, who almost ate half of the pot by himself.

Then there is Natsuki. It's not that he has more chakra than Kuno Kuroyu, but that he has consumed half of it just now and needs energy replenishment at this moment.

After dinner, the team rested for a while, and then walked for a while. Before the sky was completely swallowed up, they stopped and began to set up tents and spread sleeping bags.

"In the first half of the night, I will watch the night. At two o'clock in the morning, Uncle Gujie will take over. At four o'clock, I will replace Kuroyu and Natsuki. Does anyone have any objections?"

Aoki Gennosuke divided the vigil plan and asked.

"no problem."

Kosuke Maruyoshi nodded calmly.

"can."

Xia Shu didn't agree, and wanted to refine chakra during the night vigil.

"I can do it now!"

On the contrary, Kuno Kuroyu was a little eager to try, and raised his hand and said.

"Obeying the orders of the superior is also a compulsory course for ninjas, Kuno!"

Aoki Gennosuke suddenly looked at Kuno Kuroyu seriously, his eyes flashed an expected look, and then added: "Especially during the execution of the mission!"

"Hold, I'm sorry! I will correct it, Brother Aoki!"

Kuno Kuroyu was startled for a moment, and then said with pursed lips.

"It's Mr. Aoki! You little brat!"

Accompanied by the bang, Aoki Gennosuke laughed triumphantly and stood up, but Kuno Kuroyu screamed with his head in his arms.

"Oh! It hurts, damn it!"
