Pokémon Ninja Scrolls of the Mizukage

Chapter 41 Chance Encounter
"Hey, kid! You bumped into someone, and you don't even have an apology?"

"It's obviously you!"

The noise of the commotion on the other side was getting louder and louder, but Jianchuan Ju did not go over to join in the fun immediately. Instead, he turned to look at old man Shimotsuki Ichiro.

Who would have thought that the old man, at such an old age, would still be so eager to join in the fun. He didn't even notice Jianchuan Ju's inquiring gaze and was already preparing to walk to the other side of the deck to take a closer look.

Seeing this, Jianchuan Ju had no choice but to hurry up and catch up. Although his 'Danger Prediction' didn't show any movement, he was still on an escort mission after all, so it was better not to make any mistakes.

However, when Jianchuan Ju approached and saw the two people arguing, he was shocked.

There is nothing much to say about the ordinary-looking young man. Judging from his attire, he should be just an ordinary Genin from the Hidden Mist Village. The two people in the same attire who are staring at him from behind should be his teammates.

The focus was on the ten-year-old boy on the weaker side. Jianchuan Ju's eyes were involuntarily fixed on him.

He had messy black short hair, wore a dark blue ninja suit, and had two bulging ninja tool bags on his waist, which made him look ordinary. But the Konoha forehead protector on his head, the Uchiha clan emblem on his back, and the somewhat ridiculous windproof goggles on his face all revealed his identity.

Uchiha Obito!
"Why is he here?" Jianchuan Ju was shocked, but before he could think about it, several members of the Kirigakure were ready to attack Uchiha Obito.

Seeing that the brat was still arrogant, the leading Genin swung his fist and hit Uchiha Obito in the face.

"Shu~"

Just when the Kirigakure Genin's fist was only a few centimeters away from hitting Uchiha Obito's eyepiece.

A silver-haired figure suddenly appeared between the two of them and firmly grasped his fist that was about to fall.

The Genin pulled his hand out several times but failed.

"Kakashi! You don't have to do anything. I was just about to take care of him!"

Uchiha Obito, who was clearly stunned by the other party's direct attack, shamelessly refused when he saw Kakashi helping him.

When the two teammates of the Genin saw that their companion was restrained by a little devil, they immediately stepped forward to help and were even ready to take out their weapons to fight back.

But at the same time, a handsome young man with blond hair suddenly appeared beside the two men with a smile on his face and shook their hands which had just taken out their weapons.

"It's just a small misunderstanding. It shouldn't be enough to require the use of weapons, right?"

At this moment, the three Genin from the Hidden Mist Village had their backs soaked with cold sweat. Just seeing that the other party was able to control the three of them so easily, it would be easy for them to take their lives.

But due to the concern of face, he couldn't open his mouth to soften his words, so he could only say weird things like "This is in the territory of the Water Country." and "Don't underestimate the Blood Mist Ninja."

Seeing that the other party had no intention of continuing the conflict, the blond young man naturally let go of his hands.

"Okay, Kakashi. Let him go. It's just a little misunderstanding."

"Yes, Minato-sensei."

The three people who were released by the other party felt that they had lost face. They didn't say another word, but quickly left the deck and returned to the cabin.

Jianchuan Ju estimated that the few people would not leave the cabin for the next few days.

Seeing that there was nothing exciting to watch, the people around also dispersed one by one.

Jianchuan Ju looked at the brown-haired girl who came over and was scolding Uchiha Obito, and her heart was not as calm as she appeared.

Namikaze Minato, Hatake Kakashi, Uchiha Obito, Nohara Rin. How could the famous Minato team be on the flight from the Land of Water to the Land of Craftsmen at this time?
At this moment, Jianchuan Ju's brain was working rapidly.

At present, Uchiha Obito and Nohara Rin should have just graduated from the Ninja Academy. Kakashi is still only a Chunin, and the Minato Class was established not long ago.

Although Konoha has already gone to war with Sunagakure, it was only a small-scale conflict in the early stages of the war. Iwagakure is just taking the opportunity to denounce Konoha, and it is hard to say whether troops will be sent to the Land of Earth.

Minato Namikaze's real reputation as the "Yellow Flash" was basically earned during the Third Ninja World War. Although his strength may be very strong at this time, his position in Konoha should be just a young and capable jonin, not an indispensable force on the battlefield.

That's why he could take his three disciples out to perform some ordinary tasks to train new people. Jianchuan Ju, who had sorted out his thoughts, breathed a sigh of relief.

There's no way. None of these people are easy to deal with. Even if they are familiar characters from the original novel, it's still a little scary when they suddenly appear in front of you.

Just now, Jianchuan Ju even thought about whether he should take advantage of the fact that Uchiha Obito is still the last one in the group to kill him.

After all, when he awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan in the future, he caused great trouble to the entire Hidden Mist Village.

Using illusions to control the Fourth Mizukage, intensifying the blood mist policy, and slaughtering the bloodline families, it can be said that the Hidden Mist Village has been brought to the point where it has become the shame of the five major ninja villages.

Fortunately, Jianchuan Ju still has some rationality, and it is hard to say what will happen in the future. If I dare to attack Uchiha Obito now, I guess even Qing teacher may not be able to protect me.

"Hey, kid, let's go."

Seeing that there was no more excitement, Jianchuan Ju was still staring there blankly, and Shimotsuki Ichiro had to pat him with his hand to remind him.

"Oh, okay, Mr. Shimotsuki."

Jianchuan Tachibana withdrew his gaze in time, but when he was about to leave, he found that Namikaze Minato seemed to be glancing at him vaguely.

Jianchuan Ju almost couldn't hold back his expression.

Fortunately, nothing happened in the end, and Minato's team left the deck in a noisy manner.

"Little boy, you seem to be worried."

"Uh, nothing much, it's just that those guys just now were very strong."

Of course Jianchuan Ju couldn't tell the truth, so he had to make up an excuse.

"Haha, the blond one is okay, but the black-haired one is so irritable and won't amount to anything in the future. As an old man, I have a pretty good eye for people."

"Haha, yeah."

Jianchuan Ju smiled awkwardly, but did not refute anything.

"As for you, kid. I feel that you will definitely have a bright future. Would you like to consider letting me make you a ninja sword? I guarantee that your strength will improve by leaps and bounds!"

"Free?"

Upon hearing Jianchuan Tachibana's answer, Shimotsuki Ichiro's eyes immediately widened with a look of disbelief.

"How is that possible! Do you know how valuable a famous sword is?"

"Mr. Shimotsuki, have you ever made any famous swords?"

Seeing that Jianchuan Ju actually questioned his forging skills, old man Shimotsuki became even more angry and immediately opened his mouth to refute.

"What do you know? A famous sword can only be famous in the hands of an expert. It's not that the sword I made is not good, but those guys are too weak and let my sword down!"

Jianchuan Ju looked at the old man who was a little too excited and thought.

"Just now you said that you have always been very good at judging people."

However, considering that the other party is his client after all, it would be bad if he was not harmed by the enemy but instead suffered internal injuries from his own anger.

Shut up decisively and signal that you admit defeat.

Seeing that the kid was so tactless in rejecting him again, Ichiro Shimotsuki no longer tried to promote his forging business.
