Naruto's Savior

Chapter 144 Jealousy
With plenty of time, coupled with getting up too early in the morning and not having many customers, Mizuki involuntarily leaned back on the chair behind the counter and dozed off.

While sleeping soundly, Mizuki felt vaguely that someone had entered the store, and after a while, it seemed that someone called him.

Mizuki, who was disturbed to go back to sleep, opened his eyes displeased, and found that Hinata Hinata with a cautious face was greeting him, followed by Inuzuka Kiba and Yume Shino who had a thin sense of presence.

"What's the matter with you?" Mizuki doesn't have much contact with these three ninjas, and they are all children of the ninja family. I don't know them very well. I often communicate with them in the ninja school, but the only one who can get along with them is Unino. Iruka is that guy.

"We want to visit Teacher Hong, so we want to come and buy flowers..." Hinata Hinata said timidly.

"Buying flowers? Doesn't this place seem to be in the wrong direction? Isn't Ino's flower shop closer? Why did you come here?"

"Mr. Mizuki, why do you have the intention of driving customers out when you open the door for business?" Inuzuka Fang is straightforward, saying whatever comes to mind, "We came too early. It seems that the Ino family has not opened yet."

"Morning?" Mizuki looked outside the door, the weather was just right, the sight was sufficient, the sky was already bright, there was no reason for the flower shop not to open now.But then, Mizuki realized that Yamanaka Kaiichi was injured a little while fighting with A Fei yesterday, and now he is either in the hospital or recuperating at home. There is something at home, so naturally he has to lean back to take care of the shop or something.

"Which ones have you chosen? I'll wrap them up for you..."

"Don't worry, Mizuki-sensei, we've got it all done." Shino Yume wanted to show her presence, but she actually spoke, "We've already put the money on the table."

"Huh?" Mizuki rubbed his eyes, only to find the coins in front of him.

"It's all done, why wake me up?" 』

"Then what else do you have to do?" Mizuki tried to squeeze out a smile and said kindly, as a teacher's majesty and magnanimity still had to be maintained.

"I heard that Mizuki-sensei and Hong-sensei went out to the village together to do missions, and they were also seriously injured, but it seems that Mizuki-sensei is in good condition, but I don't know if it's okay for Hong-sensei." Inuzuka asked Mizuki, "Let's ask other people , They all said to tell us to wait patiently, let us feel at ease, and did not tell us the truth..."

"That's it." It's inevitable for these ninjas to worry, "Kuno Yuhi is in good condition, and his life should not be in danger. But it's hard to say what will happen in the future, at least the recovery period will be very long..."

"That is to say, for a long period of time, Teacher Hong will not guide us and lead us to complete the task entrustment?" The taciturn Younuzhi is the smartest and serious one among the three, and she found out the next time. The subtext in Mizuki's words.

"Basically that's it, you have to be prepared. But..." The conversation changed, Mizuki continued, "If there are better medical ninjas to treat, it's hard to say whether it will be cured as soon as possible. .”

Mizuki didn't dare to say too much. When Tsunade came back, maybe there would be a better treatment method. Without seeing it, Mizuki couldn't judge the level of Tsunade's medical ninjutsu.

"We understand the situation, thank you Mizuki-sensei, let's go first." Now that we understand the truth, the three shinobi thanked and left.

Looking at the three people who left, Mizuki shook his head slightly. Except for these three people, maybe no one in Konoha Village has ever cared about who will lead the teacher of the eighth class of Shinobi.

The three people, Yume Shino, Hinata Hinata, and Inuzuka Kiba, all have family inheritance and distinctive characteristics of ninjutsu. Naturally, the strong family members are responsible for the teaching of ninjutsu. Forbear the teacher's poor teaching.In fact, what they need is not to lead a team of ninjas to teach them powerful ninjutsu, but to teach them how to be a qualified ninja. The latter is far more concerned by the elders of the three lower ninjas than the former.

And Kuroyuki, as a phantom ninja who has not been promoted for a long time, doesn't have much ninjutsu to teach the junior ninjas of the eighth class, but as an aggressive new jnin, it is extremely difficult to become a jnin Female ninjas will naturally be admired for their tenacity and outstanding qualities beyond ordinary people.In the objective environment where Class [-]'s requirements for the leading teacher are not very strict, Xi Hihong is actually quite suitable for this role.He is neither domineering, nor lacking in patience and quality. In the past few months, he has indeed done a good job. As a new Jonin, it is already quite rare.

And now that Yuhihong is seriously injured, and temporarily unable to perform the duties of leading the teacher, it is very necessary to find a temporary replacement.With Konoha's background, it is a bit difficult to find one that is as suitable as Yuhihong, but it is relatively easy to find one that is similar, or almost.But all of this has nothing to do with Mizuki. The Jonin who can come to lead the teacher of the current ninja, at least they are quite patient.Before these people are promoted to Chunin, it is estimated that they will be nannies for a year.

……

Mizuki's drowsiness also subsided a lot after being disturbed by the three shinobi from the eighth class. As time went by, more and more people would take to the streets.At this point in time, no matter how lazy people are, it is almost time to get up and work.The actual situation was indeed as Mizuki expected, more and more customers came, and Mizuki didn't have much chance to be lazy.

Although Mizuki and Xiaochun didn't open the Four Seasons flower shop for a long time, thanks to their own flower garden, after using the potion prepared by Mizuki, the growth rate is greatly improved, and the mutation probability of flowers is much higher than that of ordinary cases. probability.Although most of them are worthless failures, occasionally some unique and rare varieties are quite popular, which has really attracted many lovers of flowers and flower arrangements to the store.With the improvement of business, it also brought a lot of income to Mizuki. Without this, maintaining Mizuki's various expenses would be troublesome.Although I don't have a lot of money now, at least I don't have to worry about the financial constraints a few months ago.

With this period of familiarity, Mizuki can barely cope with this busy situation. It is much better than before when he knows nothing and is often asked by customers, but it seems that it will take quite a while to adapt to this kind of life.

It wasn't until noon that the hot weather greatly dispelled the enthusiasm of many people to go out, and Mizuki was able to take a rest, waiting for Xiaochun to come to deliver lunch.

However, before Xiaochun arrived, Uchiha Sasuke came to visit first.

Seeing Sasuke Uchiha looking at him with a complex expression, Mizuki also understood that Sasuke probably knew something about what happened yesterday.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Mizuki asked nonchalantly, "What's the matter? You should have lunch at this time, right?"

"Why didn't you tell me yesterday?" Sasuke seemed a little unwilling and dissatisfied that Mizuki didn't tell him the truth in time.

"Tell you what? Are you referring to Uchiha Itachi's return? Why do you ask me to meddle in your affairs?"

"I was rude, I'm sorry." Sasuke also seemed to realize that his attitude was very unfriendly, and using a similar questioning tone to those who helped him, really shouldn't be what a ninja said to the Chunin teacher.

"It's okay, Sasuke." Mizuki waved his hand, expressing that he didn't mind, "How much do you remember of what I said yesterday?"

"Is that man really that strong?"

"Do you remember this?" Mizuki was very disappointed with Sasuke's answer. "That sword-wielding warrior is the technique used by Uchiha Itachi, and that's not all about him..." At least yesterday's Susano, Uchiha Itachi didn't use the magic weapon.It doesn't matter whether you don't want to or can't temporarily, you just need to understand that Uchiha Itachi can still be stronger.

"So, am I not even qualified to take revenge now?" Sasuke said with some despair, "Is it because my persistence is like a joke?"

"Okay, Sasuke, didn't I ask you, do you remember what I said yesterday?" Sasuke's negative emotions are actually a big trouble, and this can be exploited by many people, Shimura Danzo, Uchiha Obito, Even Itachi Uchiha is cheating on him, even if it's for his own good. "As a ninja teacher, I will not lie to my former students. Your future will not be worse than your brother, but now, you can't even accurately judge your strength compared with others. Especially Uchiha Itachi , You don’t understand the gap between you at all.”

"Then what should I do? After so long of hard work, the gap between me and that man has not only not narrowed, but even widened."

"If you hold this kind of attitude and thinking, it will be very dangerous, Sasuke." In Mizuki's view, in terms of absolute strength, Uchiha Itachi has indeed become stronger and stronger in recent years, far surpassing Uchiha Sasuke to the extent imaginable.And Sasuke is only 12 years old, and has just embarked on the golden period of rapid growth of ninjas. Uchiha Itachi is almost there. In the past few years, how many people in the ninja world can grow faster than Uchiha Itachi?

"But even Naruto is stronger than me now..."

"Is there a sense of crisis? Do you feel that your growth rate is too slow?"

Uchiha Sasuke did not speak, acquiescing to Mizuki's guess.

Mizuki smiled lightly and said, "A month ago, you were beaten so hard by Locke Lee that you couldn't even fight back. A month later, Gaara, who defeated Xiao Li, was completely suppressed by you in the Chunin exam in front of everyone. Am I right?"

"But, in the end, Naruto defeated him?"

"Can't Naruto defeat Gaara?" Mizuki asked back, "Your teammate Uzumaki Naruto has this kind of impression in your heart? A waste for a lifetime? Not as good as you for a lifetime? Greed and jealousy, you have committed two crimes." Wrong. Don't you think Naruto is just a lucky guy who gained power?"

Mizuki's words left Sasuke speechless. In terms of talent, Sasuke thought he surpassed Naruto, but in terms of hard work, he had to admire Naruto's unyielding effort and confidence.

"Go back and think about it, and ask your teacher Kakashi more, he is your teacher who leads the team..."

"I'm really sorry to bother you."

……

Looking at the back of Sasuke turning away, Mizuki couldn't help feeling sorry for what happened to this big boy.The current Sasuke is not yet able to persuade with one or two sentences, and without much experience, he will not understand too much truth.Living in a world made up of lies, coupled with unfortunate encounters, it is already hard not to be forced to collapse by pressure.However, for all this, Mizuki is really helpless, he can only help at the right time, and for the rest, he can only ask for blessings.The current situation is very different from the original.What choice Sasuke will make in the future depends on Kakashi's guidance.

"Aren't you coming out yet? Everyone has left..." There were too many uninvited guests today, and they didn't seem to be here to buy flowers.

Following Mizuki's words, Hatake Kakashi and Yamashiro Aoba appeared in front of Mizuki.

"Sasuke's matter, let you bother." Because of this kind of thing, Kakashi also felt embarrassed to trouble Mizuki Ten again and again, originally these were his own work.

"It's okay, I'm just talking anyway." Mizuki then turned to Aoba Yamashiro and asked, "Why did you follow?"

"Well." Yamashiro Aoba said with a sneer, "Accidentally let Sasuke know about Uchiha Itachi's return, and then saw Sasuke running away in a hurry, a little worried and followed."

"After a long time, it turned out to be your fault." In Mizuki's impression, it seems that this person also made a big mouth in the original book. "No wonder he came to me to vent his emotions."

"Hey, Mizuki, are there any guests?" Xiao Chun finally came at this time.

"I'm hungry too, do you want to stay and eat together?" Xiaochun has cooked a lot of meals recently, and often she can't finish them.

"No, since Sasuke is fine, let's go first."

……

After eating lunch with Xiaochun and packing up everything, Xiaochun saw that there was no one around, then handed a scroll to Mizuki, and said in a low voice, "After three days, it's better to have a face-to-face talk?"

"What's so serious?" Mizuki took the scroll, then carefully opened it to have a look, "Tailed Beast Chakra? Did you find it so soon?"

As time passed, Mizuki's expression became more and more serious as he slowly looked at the information.

"Secondaime Hokage, Unhokage Tensei, and Kage Clone are not unrelated. It turns out that what I wanted to do was tried many years ago.Sure enough, they are a group of smart people..."

Tailed beasts, a magical creature, have been born for thousands of years. On the one hand, their great power is on the one hand, and what is even more surprising is their immortality.Even after being killed, after a period of dormancy, it will be reborn again.And when humans have the ability to initially control tailed beasts, there is no reason not to be tempted by this magical ability.As Konoha, the overlord of the ninja world, when his strength reached its peak, it was the moment when Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara overwhelmed the entire ninja world.As the second generation of Hokage, he knows much more than others, and there is a ready-made example in front of him, the reincarnation of Indra and Asura.Although it is very different from Tailed Beast, it is not impossible to develop something special based on similar characteristics.Here, Mizuki also had to admire the genius of Senshou Feijian, who was able to find some by-products in a different way, but became a magical skill that changed the entire ninja world.

Just like this shadow clone, the extension and recovery of the will, the reincarnation of the filthy soil, blurring the boundary between life and death, the flying thunder god technique, breaking the barrier of space, if you combine them together, you can actually see a very clear thread—— — Longevity.
