The Heavens' Road to Strengthening from Hokage

Chapter 17 Can I Bring Naruto Home?
"Qiye, did you really bring condiments, if not, we can only dry roast like this."

Naruto also carried a little something that might be used in his pocket, such as the current fire tools.

But he lit the fire, but he was still worried about the seasoning.

What can I bring in that small bag?
"You take this and look at mine!"

Qiye handed the two pheasants in his hand to Naruto, and then took out the storage scroll under Naruto's gaze.

next moment.
bang——

A bunch of condiments, even a grill and pots and pans.
The sudden appearance of a bunch of things successfully made Naruto stunned.

"Watch out for the pheasants."

Looking at the pheasant that had slipped from Naruto's hands, Qiye lifted the pot and the pot together and kicked it out.

When Naruto was shouted back to his senses to catch them, two cleaned pheasants had already fallen into the pot.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, I"

Naruto looked at his hands, he was just too surprised just now.

But if he didn't do such a simple thing well, would Qiye think he was too useless?
"If I had told you earlier, it wouldn't have happened. Come and clean the pot, and I'll set this up."

Qiye walked over and patted Naruto's head twice, it felt really good.

However, there is no need to comfort him at this time, as long as he continues to let Naruto do things, this kid will be happy immediately.

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

Sure enough, Naruto picked up the pot excitedly and went to the river.

Naruto, who has never cooked, is soaked in water after washing a pot.

When he brought back the pot that felt almost clean, Qiye had already put the rack in place, and cut and marinated the two pheasants separately.

One is roasted and the other is stewed. This is the way he can think of making it so far.

"Amazing!"

Naruto's eyes once again showed worshiping star eyes. In his opinion, Qiye is a completely omnipotent existence.

"Okay, let's stew this one first, you go over there and bring some firewood, these are not enough."

Qiye had learned to cook in her previous life, but it was limited to simple methods.

Now urging Naruto to gather firewood, he cleaned the grill himself, and that's how it started.

In the simplest way of making, seasonings are configured in various proportions.

"Seven nights and seven nights, we can come to the mountains to cook more in the future, so it should save some money?"

Naruto is used to being poor, and he was worried before that if he went to eat ramen too many times, Qiye's wallet might not be able to bear it.

Now the two pheasants in the pot and on the grill gave him the hope of saving money.

"Actually, I'm not very good at cooking."

Nanaya's words didn't match the scent that was wafting at all, so Naruto, who was opposite him, and Kakashi, who was secretly observing and protecting him, all imprinted him with a superb cooking skill in his heart.

When the meat on the grill was slowly cooked, Qiye took the knife on the side and cut it off piece by piece.

He can't master the technique of crispy on the outside and tender on the inside for the time being, so he can only do it layer by layer.

"It's so delicious, Qiye, how long have you been studying, how can you make such delicious barbecue, can you teach me, if I learn it, I can cook it in the future."

Naruto took the sliced ​​meat and ate it happily. Looking at Qiye who continued to put a layer of seasoning on it, he suddenly felt that cooking seemed to be a very important thing.

"I have a chance to give you a try. This time, let's eat slowly. After eating, we have to go to the mountains to train. School will start soon, so we can't be lazy!"

Qiye slowly tasted a few pieces on his plate, the taste can only be said to be okay, not unpalatable, but definitely not to the extent that he feels that it is delicious.

But now Naruto is happy to eat, so he just eats like this.

The two of them quickly finished a roast chicken, even the bones were eaten by Naruto.

Then the stewed chicken in this pot was also cooked, and the moment the lid was opened, Kakashi who was not far away was envious.

Now he finally knew why Qiye had to buy so many seasonings.

These things that he didn't think he could use could make a pot of meat with a fragrance that wafted so far.

He has been running around with this kid these days, and he has never seen this kid cook for him
Really, too much!

But with Naruto around, Kakashi just watched from afar until the two little ones were full, then cleaned up the pots and pans and put them away
"Let's go, it's almost time to rest, we will run to that mountain today, and then run home, how about it?"

Naruto kept scrambling to do things while packing up, and now that everything was back to the little scroll in Qiye's hands, he was full of heart and only had to train.

In his opinion, Qiye is so powerful, he must catch up.

With Seven Nights as his goal, he will work hard to surpass it!

"Walk slowly first, and when we reach the top of the mountain ahead, we will start running"

Qiye's hand ran to the top of Naruto's head again, and after rubbing it a few times habitually, they began their training.

Running, before entering the ninja school, they have no other training methods other than running.

But running this distance is already Naruto's limit.

When the two returned to the village, Naruto looked at the house not far away, and immediately closed his eyes and was about to lie down.

"Naruto?"

Qiye reached out to support Naruto, and heaved a sigh of relief after confirming that he was just asleep.

The power of the demon fox has not been leaked at all, so Naruto's physique is better than that of ordinary children, but compared with people who have Chakra, it is still a bit far away.

It seems that we have to think of a way.

"Uncle Mask, do you think I should send Naruto home, or take him back to my house?"

Nanaya's white-eyed state has been open since he was in the mountains, so he has always known Kakashi's traces.

Now, Kakashi was directly beside him.

"How did Xiao Qiye know it was me?"

Kakashi originally wanted to take over Naruto, but he didn't expect Nanaya to sense his existence directly.

This kid, does he have eyes behind his back?

"I guess, uncle, do you think I can take Naruto home for a night?"

Qiye supported Naruto without any intention of letting go.

He wanted to take Naruto back today to study the sealing technique on Naruto.

But Kakashi ran out, obviously not giving him a chance.

"No, if Naruto lives with you, there will be problems with your house starting tomorrow."

Kakashi was helpless, but he had to do it.

Others may be tolerated, but if Naruto enters the village to live, the panic of the villagers will bring great danger to Qiye.

Especially those guys at the root, there is only one day left, he can't let Danzo keep an eye on this kid.

It's not just the mission of the third generation, but he himself feels the same way.

This child is too mature, whether it is cultivation or dealing with things, he is so smart that it is worrying.

If he was really targeted by Danzo, he didn't think the Third Hokage would just let it go.

The game between the two great powers is likely to end in death, and the result of their fight is the tragic destruction of Qiye.
