The old devil Konoha wants to be a good person

"Linru, congratulations on your promotion to Jonin!"

"Captain, congratulations!"

"Drink! Drink!"

The comfortable izakaya suite, soft lighting, and delicious dishes make people linger. The aroma of barbecue makes the guests salivate. A banquet is held here to celebrate Linru's successful promotion.

The people present include the five members of the fourth team, as well as the four familiar jonins Kakashi, Metkai, Asuma, and Kurenai, and the two little ones Sasuke and Matsuki.

The atmosphere was relaxed and lively, and there was a lot of excitement in the activity. After drinking a few glasses of wine, we thanked each other drunkenly and chatted with our friends.

"Don't look at the watermelon mountain blowfish ghost and I were evenly matched last time, but this time I was defeated in an instant. What the hell are the Seven Ninja Swordsmen? I'm fighting the Seven Ninja Swordsmen!"

Quan glanced at Linru silently, took a sip of orange juice, and said nothing.

"That Ghost Lantern Full Moon is quite powerful, but it's a pity that the environment of the battlefield doesn't give him many opportunities to show off. In the end, it's up to me, otherwise they won't even be able to break through the door of the Mizukage Building!"

Sasuke's blood boiled when he heard it, and his heart was fascinated.

"I didn't see what Yugao was capable of, but it was the Vulpix. Hiss, it was really terrifying. The acid was released, and hundreds of fog ninjas fell in pieces like wheat. The scene was simply too horrible to watch. !”

Xiyan was no longer disappointed, but rather grateful, as were the other three team members.

"Finally, there's the big demon Blood Owl. Not only did he kill the Rokubi Chuuriki, but he also threatened and intimidated Terumi Mei. There are thousands of ninjas in the Kirigakure village, but no one dares to act rashly!"

Songyue's heart was racing and her words were incoherent with excitement.

Hearing Linru talk about the Kirigakure coup, everyone became interested. Now more than a week has passed, and the matter has spread in Konoha. Even ordinary villagers know that Kirigakure Village has welcomed a beautiful Mizukage.

As someone who has experienced it, Linru obviously has a lot of bragging rights.

But Kakashi was more interested in Linru than other people's stories. He smiled and teased: "Linru, you have become so strong without saying a word. You really put me under pressure."

Linru smiled chicly and said calmly:

"It's just good luck. If you survive, you will naturally break through."

This sentence made most people present feel a little emotional and nostalgic. It is difficult for ninjas living in peaceful times to imagine the cruelty of war years. The scale of Kirigakure's coup was indeed a war. If you survive, you will become stronger.

"Linru, how did you unlock my illusion during the exam? I thought I had used the tree binding perfectly enough, but you still released it instantly, even if you bit your tongue to stimulate your brain, this was too... …”

Hong had a depressed face and looked very shocked. Linru scratched his head and said hesitantly: "I just solved it according to the conventional illusion method! Maybe it was because of many breakthroughs on the edge of life and death, which led to a great increase in mental power? "

Hong could only accept this explanation, but she couldn't hide her envy. Breaking through the edge of life and death, leading to a great increase in mental power, was very attractive to her as a genjutsu ninja.

Otherwise, would you like to find a chance to commit suicide in the future?

Asuma noticed Hong's expectant eyes, coughed repeatedly, and quietly changed the subject: "Linru, you and I are both masters of swordsmanship, but we don't have a good sword. This is really a pity."

"Not like this..."

Asuma seemed to be prepared and handed over a dagger, and said lightly: "I will give you a decent knife as a gift to celebrate your promotion to Jonin."

Linru thanked him quickly and then took a closer look. He saw that it was more than [-] centimeters long, slightly longer than the average kunai and half a finger wide. The spine of the sword was distributed to the right side. The sword was slightly curved. It was completely black and had no guard.

The hilt is cold to the touch and slightly slippery, but it is not bound by leather. Instead, it is made of a strange red metal and is engraved with delicate stripes for easy grip to increase friction.

The red and black short blade shone like a flame under the lights at the banquet. Linru fell in love with it as soon as he saw it, and asked Asuma excitedly, "Does it have a name?"

"It has not been named yet." Asma paused and introduced: "This knife is made of the same material as Feiyan. It is made of chakra metal and is made by a master from the country of craftsmen."

"You know that I am used to holding the sword behind my back, so I keep it on the shelf, letting the treasure gather dust. Now that you have become a Jonin, you should have a handy weapon, so..."

Realizing that the surroundings were quiet and everyone was listening to her speech, Asma spread his hands indifferently, with an indifferent smile on his lips: "You don't need to thank me too much."

"Just a little thank you."

"Haha! Okay, then I'm welcome!"

Linru laughed loudly, accepted Asma's gift very calmly, raised the knife, turned it around in his palm, then held it tightly, stared at the blade, and said softly:

"In this case, this sword should be called 'Liaoyuan'."

The so-called prairie fire is naturally related to fire, because the color of the sword tends to be between red and black, like flames and charcoal, as if one firmly believes in the will of fire. The sword was given by Asuma, the son of the Hokage, and there is no charm in it. Difficult to understand.

No matter how you look at it, it is very suitable for the occasion.

In this way, after three rounds of wine and five dishes, a few hours later, it was already late at night, and everyone went home separately, smelling of wine. Linru led Songyue home, but unexpectedly he met Quan on the roadside.

"Lord Linru, do you have time?"

The girl seemed to have come in a big circle, walking in a hurry and looking like she was about to say something. Linru knew that she had something to say, so she asked Songyue to go home first, while she stayed behind and walked aimlessly with her. Come.

"Quan, you were very silent at the banquet today."

The streets were empty, the evening breeze was pleasant, and Rinru smiled vaguely. In fact, it wasn't just Izumi, Sasuke was also very quiet. These two Uchiha tribesmen were obviously not used to the lively scene.

Quan was stunned for a moment, as if he had something on his mind and was interrupted. He lowered his head and pondered for a few seconds, and said with shame, "I'm sorry, Master Linru, I haven't prepared a gift for you yet."

"No need." Linru waved his hand: "I'm very satisfied if you can come to support me. Even if Asma is so generous, there must be some meaning behind this. I won't explain it to you in detail."

After Kirigakure's trip, the S-level mission rewards had not yet been distributed, and Sarutobi did not mention the matter of choosing ninjutsu again. With the hokage's shrewdness, it was impossible to forget, so Asuma gave the sword to him.

Not only as a reward, but also as a favor to his son.

Linru sees these things very clearly. You need to know how valuable weapons made of chakra metal are?How can you just give it away?He thinks that his relationship with Asuma hasn't reached that point yet, and it would be almost the same with Kakashi.

Quan didn't understand the key and thought Linru was comforting him. He secretly made up his mind to prepare a big gift and mentioned the purpose of his trip: "Lord Linru, are you planning to carry out a mission with Mitarashi Anko tomorrow?"

Linru looked at Quan in surprise: "How do you know?"
