Sunny and cheerful Konoha Genin

"Hokage-sama."

Toru Ito looked calmly at the middle-aged man in front of him who was obviously much older.

"We have completed the Ninja Teaching mission in the Land of Water. This is the process."

As he said this, he took out the scroll with the records written on it earlier and handed it to the Third Hokage in front of him.

"Ah."

Sarutobi Hiruzen opened it, took a quick look at it, and then put it aside.

"Thank you for your hard work."

He smiled and nodded in affirmation.

"The reward for this time has also been prepared, you can use this."

He took out a small card and placed it on the table.

"This is……"

Yukina picked up the card with some confusion and looked at it over and over again.

But Ito Toru saw it at a glance.

Isn't this a bank card?!

I didn't expect that Konoha's finance has developed to this point?

"This is a tool to facilitate the settlement of mission rewards."

Sarutobi Hiruzen explained: "It would be inconvenient to take your current rewards with your hands."

"understood."

Ito Toru nodded, and he and the still confused Yuina took their respective cards.

After coming out of the Hokage Building, Nawaki waved goodbye to the two of them because he still had things to deal with with the Root.

"I'm sorry, Ito-san, Yuina-san."

He said to them, "I have to go back first. The Root Department is quite busy right now. I can't handle it alone. When can you come back?"

"Uh...you should be busy now."

Toru Ito touched his nose guiltily.

After all, it was he who gave this busy task to Sheng Shu himself.

No wonder he looks so mature all of a sudden.

It’s hard to be immature when you’re tortured by work every day!

"I guess it will take a long time before I can come back." Yuina's expression remained indifferent, but there was some fatigue in her eyes.

"This mission was really tiring, more tiring than I imagined."

"There are other things coming up, so I plan to take a long break."

"Shisui isn't with you?"

Yukina suddenly remembered this.

"Shisui... He has things to do too. He's basically in charge of all the field work lately. Oh yeah, and Itachi too."

"Thanks to their help, I am not too busy to death."

"Hahahaha! What are you talking about? I see you're acting pretty good right now!"

Ito Toru patted his shoulder vigorously: "Come on, I'm optimistic about you!"

"Thank you so much, Ito-nii."

Sheng Shu rolled his eyes.

Without saying anything more, he just turned and left.

He was so fast that he disappeared in a flash.

"This kid's teleportation technique has become much stronger."

"Ah."

Yukina nodded.

Ito Toru turned to look at her: "What about you? Yukina, what are your plans next?"

"I also have to go back to the Uchiha clan's territory to tidy up the house. The furniture inside must have been covered in dust after being there for so long." Her voice was soft and warm, like a ray of sunlight shining through the clouds.

"Really, okay then."

Nawaki and Yuina left, leaving Ito Toru standing there alone.

The noise on the street gradually faded away and the surroundings became quiet.

Toru Ito was left alone on the street, stretching himself.

Finally I feel relaxed...

Although his strength is enough to handle all kinds of situations with ease, he is still more or less nervous during the mission.

Now back to the village.

This place is like a safe area, giving people a sense of absolute security.

Even Ito Toru himself didn't realize that his body had naturally relaxed without him noticing it.

Just walk around casually like this.

He originally planned to go out for something to eat, or buy some souvenirs, and then go back to tidy up his house, just like them.

However, now that he had some free time, he didn't want to waste time sorting things out.

So I just walked aimlessly on the street.

The weather today is very sunny. There are big white clouds and blue sky in the sky. The breeze is blowing gently. The streets are bustling with people coming and going.

There were also many children playing and fighting.

A peaceful and tranquil look.

Toru Ito walked among the crowd like an ordinary person.

It's as natural as a drop of water merging into the sea.

However, when he walked to a corner, he unexpectedly met an old friend whom he had not seen for a long time.

Namikaze Minato.

He still looked sunny and cheerful, with a faint smile on his face. There was a gentle look in his pair of blue eyes, like the endless sea.

"Why are you here?"

The corner of Ito Toru's mouth twitched slightly.

Although he was able to see Minato Namikaze again, he was also very happy in his heart, after all, he was an old friend whom he hadn't seen for such a long time.

However, whenever this guy appeared in front of him, there were always some troubles.

So he was also a little conflicted.

"Because I heard that you were back, I wanted to look for you. I just happened to sense your chakra here, so I came to wait for you." Namikaze Minato said with a smile.

"I'm glad you came back safely. I heard there was a big commotion there recently, and I'm a little worried."

"Big mess?"

"do not you know?"

"I don't know. I just left not long ago and have been on the road the whole time. I haven't learned about the relevant situation."

"Then let's find a place to have a good chat?"

"also."

So the two figures jumped onto the roof at the same time and ran in a certain direction under the leadership of Minato Namikaze.

A ninja's steps are as light as a cat's, so there is no need to worry about damaging the roof or breaking tiles.

What’s more, they are both top ninjas at their current level.

It didn't take long for Toru Ito and Minato Namikaze to arrive at a quiet place.

"Ichiraku Ramen?"

Ito Toru was a little surprised: "It was doing fine, wasn't it? Why did they change the location?"

"I don't know, but after they moved here, there were a lot fewer customers, so it's also suitable for ninjas to dine here."

Namikaze Minato walked in front: "Come in, I know you like the ramen here too."

Enter the ramen shop.

An indescribable warm and familiar breath just came to my face.

It is early spring now.

The temperature inside the ramen shop is higher than outside.

But it doesn't make people feel that hot, but rather a comfortable warm feeling.

There was even a little orange kitten that walked out leisurely and shook itself.

"It's Minato and Ito!"

The ramen boss raised his head and saw two familiar faces, so he smiled brightly.

"What do you want to eat today?"
