Naruto: My mother, Haruno Sakura, is so smart that she is almost a demon

After leaving the coffee shop, Sakura and her group hurried to find their client, Wasabi Chojiro.

After arriving at the Wasabi family's long house, Wasabi Chojiro warmly welcomed Sakura and her group.

Chojiro did not look down on Team 7 because of their age. Because of Tsunade, Chojiro still had some knowledge and knew that teenage ninjas already possessed strength far beyond that of ordinary people.

"This is the person you are to protect - Morinoida."

After some greetings, Chojiro opened the door, revealing Morino Ida who was sitting behind the door.

"It's you!"

"Yes!"

After confirming each other's identities, Naruto and Date recognized each other at the same time and shouted in surprise.

"You have met before?"

Chojiro also didn't expect that Date and the ninja who came this time actually knew each other for a long time.

"Boss Chojiro, I don't need the protection of these guys at all!"

Because Sakura knocked out her two front teeth, Morinoida was unable to make lip-biting sounds at this time.

"Oh?

Ida, what is going on? "

Chojiro was also very curious about what happened between them.

"Thunder... What's the matter with thunder? Pan Zheng, I don't need any protection."

Because her nose was severely damaged, Ida's nasal pronunciation is also very strange.

Morino Ida has always been hostile to ninjas, so he didn't want to reveal the fact that he was taught a lesson by Sakura.

Upon seeing this, Chojiro turned his gaze towards Haruno Sakura.

"Nothing, we just met on the way here.

He wanted to play a trick on us, but we taught him a lesson instead, and we also beat him up."

Sakura spoke matter-of-factly, without any exaggeration from Tianyou.

"Nonsense, I hurt myself!"

Ida felt very embarrassed and had to deny it stubbornly.

"Um......"

Chojiro fell silent. He knew Date's attitude towards ninjas, and this conflict was most likely instigated by Date.

And with Ida's strength, even if he is no match for these people, he should not be unable to escape. It seems that these people must have some strength.

"Ida, stop messing around!"

Chojiro's face changed and he stopped Ida.

“Boss Chojiro!

This mission is a B-rank mission, and Shikaha only sent these Genin here. It seems that Ling is taking it seriously!"

Date, who doesn't want to work with Sakura and the others, tries to persuade Chojiro.

"I am a special jonin. From a rank perspective, I am qualified to accept not only B-rank missions but even S-rank missions."

Sakura smiled and shook her finger at Date.

"Liar!"

Ida obviously didn't believe what Sakura said.

“Not only me, but Naruto and Sasuke also advanced to the third round of the Chunin Exam and defeated their opponents.

The reason why I didn't get promoted to Chunin was because of Orochimaru's attack, which interrupted the exam."

Sakura, who knew Ida's past, naturally knew how to poke Ida's lungs.

“So the reason I didn’t advance to Chunin was because of Orochimaru’s attack?

Damn Orochimaru!"

After hearing what Sakura said, Naruto instantly hated Orochimaru.

"idiot."

Sasuke, as usual, complained about Naruto.

Sasuke naturally knew that what Sakura said just now was just to prove the excellence of Team 7, and it was not necessarily the truth.

He felt that the reason why he failed to become a Chunin was probably because he did not have the leadership skills like Sakura or Shikamaru.

“From your appearance, it’s obvious that you’ve received formal combat training and have also extracted chakra.

Were you a ninja before, but you defected?

No way, no way.

You look older than us, and you look so proud. You must have failed the Chunin Exam!"

Sakura covered her thin lips with her delicate hand and widened her eyes, looking incredulous.

After Sakura's mental attack, Ida's face turned red and white, and he wished he could find a hole to crawl into.

"Pan Zheng, I will not agree to let you protect me!"

Ida felt so ashamed at the moment that she could only stick her neck out and remain stubborn.

"Idiot, do we need your permission?"

Sasuke, who had remained silent, also joined the battle.

“The client is Chojiro, and you are just a protected person.

As long as Chojiro doesn't cancel the mission, we will protect you and ensure you reach the finish line alive.

Of course, in the process, whether you want to drive us away or get rid of us, you can try as much as you want and see if you can succeed. "

"hateful."

After Sasuke's attack, Ida finally couldn't bear the humiliation anymore, so he closed the door and turned away.

"Oh~ this kid is really...

Everyone in Konoha, I didn't discipline you enough.

'Boom Big Shrine' will start in three days. You can stay at Wasabi's house for the next few days. I will prepare a room for you.

If you have any requests, please let us know.”

Seeing this, Chojiro sighed, apologized to Sakura and the others, and showed goodwill.

“It’s okay, Chojiro-san.

Although we are young, we still know that money is hard to earn and shit is hard to eat.

Our relationship is simply one of employment and we will not relax our protection of Morinoida because of this.

As the saying goes, no reward without merit, so we should find a place to stay by ourselves these few days.

See you later, Mr. Chojiro."

Sakura politely declined Chojiro's kindness and led Sasuke and the others to say goodbye to Chojiro.

"Sakura, why don't you stay at Boss Chojiro's house?"

Naruto, who was setting up the tent, asked Sakura curiously.

After going out, Sakura and her friends originally planned to find a hotel to stay in, but after learning that the price of hotels here was three times that of Konoha, they gave up the idea of ​​looking for a hotel and prepared to find a place to camp.

Although Sakura and Sasuke were not short of money, they gladly accepted the offer of camping in the wild in order to take care of Naruto, who was living in a very difficult situation, and Karin, who had not yet completed many missions.

"Naruto, you are a soft-hearted person who eats people's food and a short-handed one who takes people's money.

Free is often the most expensive thing.”

Sakura, who was also setting up the tent, answered Naruto's question.

After hearing what Sakura said, Sasuke and Karin fell into deep thought at the same time.

“Naruto, I know you have a lot of emotions.

But during the mission, I hope you try not to invest too much emotion in the client or the object of the mission.

Because in this case, your thinking may be controlled by emotions and you may not be able to make the most correct choice.

No matter how much you like someone and want to be friends with him, you must express your feelings after completing the task.

do you understand? "

"Eh? Does this matter?

But since Sakura said so, I'll just do it."

Naruto nodded in understanding.

"Sakura, why do you seem not to like Chojiro-san very much?"

Karin, who was helping at the side, asked. As a girl, Karin was much more delicate than the two straight men, Naruto and Sasuke, and she vaguely noticed Sakura's attitude towards Chojiro.

“That’s right, I don’t really like Wasabi Chojiro.

I believe you have also noticed that both the Wasabi family and the He family are underworld families whose main means of livelihood is collecting protection fees.

No matter how polite Chojiro behaves, he cannot change the gangster nature of the Wasabi family.

Being associated with such a person would do us more harm than good.”

Sakura explained.

If it was someone like Cardo who had access to the daimyo, Sakura might have been willing to make friends with him and try to get hold of the daimyo's leverage.

Sakura doesn't want to have any contact with a yakuza like Chojiro who is neither high nor low.

Sakura treats even a traitor like Morino Date as a treasure, and she doesn't think the Wasabi family can help her in any way.

"Sakura, why do you say that? He is obviously a friend of Grandma Tsunade. Even if he is a gangster, he must be a good guy!"

Naruto had a good first impression of Chojiro and wanted to say a few words on his behalf.

"Naruto, think carefully about how your master left Konoha Village."

Sakura did not answer directly, but instead guided Naruto to find the answer himself.

"I understand!"

Before Naruto could figure out what was going on, Sasuke spoke first.

Sakura also smiled and nodded at Sasuke, indicating that Sasuke should tell Naruto.

"During the time that the Fifth Generation was away from Konoha, he was a muddle-headed gambler.

The friendship between the gambler and the gangster Wasabi Chojiro is most likely due to gambling debts.

In this case, it is impossible for Wasabi Chojiro to have a clean background."

Sasuke explained to Naruto on behalf of Sakura.

Sakura smiled noncommittally.

That’s right, the Fifth Hokage’s friends are most likely not bad people, but the same cannot be said for his friends who are gamblers or big fat sheep.

However, even if Sakura understood these things, as Tsunade's apprentice, she could not say them out loud herself. She could only explain them to Naruto through Sasuke.
