On the application of plant zombies in the world of Naruto

The capital of the Fire Nation,

The winter melon provided by the Uchiha family is undoubtedly the most popular fruit this summer.

The nobles in the high-end teahouses were holding exquisite cold forks, enjoying the coolness provided by the store and the sweetness of the cold melon in front of them, and they were in a good mood. They were not short of sugar, but they liked the cool taste of the cold melon. When they heard that ordinary people could only eat watermelons with seeds, they were more satisfied with the cold melon cubes that did not need to spit out the seeds and could be eaten with the cold melon inserted.

"Those people actually pout their lips and spit out the seeds. How disgusting."

"That's right~ The lower class are really rude."

What the nobles liked most was the Uchiha family's reasonableness. The most essential parts were served to them, while the remaining scraps were sent to ordinary restaurants and given to ordinary people.

"What do you think of the new head of the Huozhifang family?"

In May of this year, Huo Zhifangzhe suddenly suffered a stroke for unknown reasons and now can only recuperate in bed at home. Everyone thought that his vacant position would be passed on to his student smoothly, but the daimyo actually let an old guy who was notorious for not taking sides and being a peacemaker take up the vacancy.

Nearly half a month had passed, and those who were watching the situation in the capital had figured out what was going on. It seemed that the daimyo was deliberately trying to eliminate the influence of Fire Fang in the court.

"I think the Fire Fang family is no longer viable, whether it's... or the new head of the family."

What was not said was the eldest prince from the Imperial Court of the Fire Fang Family in the palace. In the early years, the eldest prince was criticized by the daimyo for not being diligent. In recent years, he entered the court first as the younger prince, and his daily performance was unsatisfactory.

Xia Tian actually entered the court with his breasts exposed and carried sake with him, looking like a playboy. Daming was so angry that he scolded him again.

"How dare you say such things outside?"

"What are you afraid of? I'm just talking about the Fire Method."

……

Another half month passed, and the fickle focus of the nobles in the capital was once again on the Uchiha shop.

Imai enthusiastically recommended it to his friends, "They have a new trick! Let's go and try it."

Takeshita was not in the mood. He didn't want to go out in such a hot day. If he wanted to eat winter melon, he could just ask the servant to buy it. "Is it the winter melon from before? I'm a member and I've eaten it a long time ago."

Imai, "No, they are making a big show this time. You will know when you go there."

The two of them took a carriage to Uchiha's high-end teahouse. As soon as they entered the door, they saw a person-high staircase made of ice, with a high-legged plate with a lid on it.

It is neat and tidy, and shrouded in cold white mist, so exquisite that it seems not to be of this world.

"……This is?"

The clerk answered in due time, "My lords, this is a dessert exclusive to summer. If you want to try it, you can pick one and I'll get it for you."

Zhuxia proudly fanned his fan. Although he didn't know what was inside, he still pointed at one with his fan.

"Let's do this."

Imai chose the other one next to it and said, "I want this one."

As they watched, the clerk took out the items they requested, placed a plate in front of each person, and then left.

Takeshita was a little impatient, "Why don't you lift the lid?"

"Dear guest, you have to do this yourself to complete the final step of the dessert."

Pretending to be mysterious, he put the fan away. Fortunately, it was relatively cool in the store, which gave him a little more patience.

He picked up the lid.

"Wow……"

Looking at the red gem mountain sprinkled with milk, the interweaving of red and white, they both exclaimed in admiration.

"This is..." Takeshita poked the gemstone with the included spoon. The familiar touch made him understand the true nature of this thing. "It's just shaved ice. It's mysterious."

He tasted a spoonful and said, "It's made from winter melon. It tastes okay."

After that, Imai opened the lid of the shaved ice in front of him. He thought it would be the same shaved ice, but he didn't expect his to be a little different. "Hey, ours are different."

A milky white ice flower is inserted on the red shaved ice.

I don't know what means were used, but the ice flowers did not melt in such hot weather.

The waiter next to him shouted, "Congratulations to Mr. Imai from table 2 for winning the hidden prize!!"

After hearing what the waiter said, all the customers in the store looked towards Table 2, and of course saw two completely different servings of shaved ice.

Imai was very excited to be watched, but he had to keep a smile on his face. "What is the hidden version?"

The clerk smiled and explained, "The honey milk on the regular shaved ice is poured directly on top, but the hidden version is frozen and then molded into various decorations. This is a one in ten chance! You are amazing, you won with just one bowl!"

After hearing this, the person who originally didn't like the mysteriousness and the high price of this shaved ice, so he just ordered a plate of cold melon cubes, suddenly felt bored when he saw the cold melon cubes in front of him, which seemed pretty good.

"Come on, I want to choose too."

…………

In the Senju family, several people from the Senju clan leader's family sat in the courtyard enjoying the cool evening breeze.

Kyojuro finally took a break from fanning himself, having been fanning himself all day, and was eating the peach given to him by Senju An.

There was no shortage of ice in the Uchiha household, so he was a little uncomfortable with coming to the Senju household out of the blue.

However, the Senju family still has its own advantages. For example, there are no mosquitoes around when you enjoy the cool air at night.

Thanks to the Qianshou family for growing the insect repellent grass.

Senju Hashirama felt a little embarrassed to see the child so hot, and decided to go to Uchiha Madara to get some ice tomorrow.

I don't know if it's because of the water-attribute chakra, but the temperature of Senju Tobirama's body is much lower than Kyojuro's, so now Kyojuro is sitting next to Senju Tobirama, and the two of them are about a meter apart from Hashirama and Kyo, who are like two furnaces.

"This year, the Ninja Association has finally finalized the mission rating and the ninja ability rating. From now on, we can dispatch ninjas based on these two ratings."

When he thought of the chaos during the meeting, Hashirama Senju wanted to give himself a thumbs up.

Senju Hashirama, you are awesome! You managed to hold on through the entire meeting without breaking down!!!

Fortunately, they had the Uzumaki family set up a sealing array in the venue to disable chakra at the beginning, otherwise after the meeting, they would have to pay the boss a large sum of money for the loss of the venue.

The Ninja Association has to bear a huge debt before it even gets on the right track.

Qian Shou Xing ate the peaches she picked from the back mountain and ate them with relish. "Then how do we take on the missions after that?"

"It's unlikely that you'll find a ninja association for a mission that specifically requires a certain family. Brother, you've been working really hard."

Senju Hashirama swung his legs. He didn't feel tired at all. He was very happy that everyone was willing to sit down and chat like this.

"Yeah... No one wants to give up their own task receiving channels."

"If you dare to say that you want to give up our house, I will tell my father."

"Hahaha, Tobirama, you're a step late! I've already told my brother!"

Senju Hashirama raised his hands to cover his face, "Little aunt, you are too fast, I just showed the first sign."

Then he was scolded by Senju Butsuma. If Senju Butsuma had not taken into consideration that his eldest son was already the patriarch and wanted to give him some face, Hashirama would probably have been punished by his father with an iron fist.

"Well," Senju Hashirama was in a very good mood.

"Let's take it one step at a time. There will always be large-scale tasks that require the joint efforts of several companies. Then everyone will know the benefits of cooperation~"

……

The next day, the weather was gloomy. The sun was blocked by clouds and the humidity in the air made it hard to breathe. It was obvious that it would rain heavily in the next second, but it didn't rain.

Kyojuro couldn't muster up any energy the whole day. He didn't know what was wrong with him. Hashirama had confirmed that there was nothing wrong with his body, but he just felt uncomfortable all over. He could only lie on the tatami and stare at the ceiling in a daze.

It was not until the evening, when heavy rain soaked every inch of the land, that he regained his former vitality.

"It's strange, I've never felt this way before."

Kyojuro moved his limbs. During the day, he felt as if his limbs no longer belonged to him.

Suddenly, the panel that had been silent all this time and not displayed popped up by itself.

[You have a friend coming to visit]

【agree refuse】

friend……

! ! Could it be!!!

Kyojuro thought of the possibility he had been looking forward to and excitedly pressed the [Agree] button.

The next second, a warm yellow light illuminated his vision and a familiar voice came to his ears.

"Kyojuro, long time no see."
