Naruto: The Legend of Chiba

The Third Ninja War officially entered the New Year’s Eve when there was no war. There was no temple fair, no fireworks display, no crowds, and even a curfew forbidden to go out. Tonight’s Konoha Village is as quiet as ever, except The lights in every house have not been extinguished until late at night, and there is no difference from usual.

However, in this quiet, an indescribable warm feeling permeated the village.

At this moment, although it is late at night, almost every family is enjoying their own warm supper. Looking out the window, the village has been coated with a layer of white goose feathers. Although it is a cold snowy night, the corners of their mouths They all showed a warm and satisfying smile, watching the snowmen, snow pits, various footprints and artificial traces that were slowly covered by heavy snow when the children and old urchins were playing before, tasting and chatting, or silent Clink glasses, cup after cup.

Every household is filled with joy and warmth full of hope for the future.

And this kind of joy and warmth of every household condenses and permeates the whole village. On this snowy and cold night, Konoha Village looks exceptionally peaceful and peaceful.

At this time, in the corner of Konoha Village, in the old house that has been unpopulated for a long time, and on the corridor of the back room, Chiba, Hirohiko, Yukina, and Kakashi are also hot at this time, in this cold snowy night , Doing the same thing as everyone else in the village.

Of course, as minors, they are actually forbidden to drink, but under the special permission of Jiuxinai, they are not too scrupulous.

Moreover, this wine is also a special fruit wine with very low alcohol content specially brewed by Jiu Xin Nai for today.

That's right, something that surprised Chiba again happened.

Jiuxinai also makes wine.

"Teacher Jiuxina, this is going to the Hokage office."

At this time, Chiba put down the small wine cup and looked at the slightly red face behind him, leaning against the Japanese door door, and Xuena, who was already a little drunk, smiled slightly, and then faced Hirohiko. And Kakashi said.

At this time, Hongyan was already a little too strong to drink, and his cheeks were red, but Kakashi didn't seem to react.

"Well, the Hokage office will not be closed today, and even some of the Anbu and defense forces have not been given a rotation. After all, it is still a war period."

In response, Kakashi nodded and said.

Just now Jiu Xinnai put down the small stove and fruit wine beside them, and went out with a lot of food boxes. Obviously, it was sent to her fiance.

Of course, depending on the amount of food, the entire Hokage office should be enough.

Otherwise, their water gate teacher's appetite may have to catch up with Chiba.

"is it……"

In response, Chiba nodded, looked at the crystal snow falling outside, and responded softly.

An illusion?

How do you feel, Chiba's mood is very good.

Today’s performance seems to be a bit different from Chiba’s usual style. Although I don’t want to admit it, Chiba has always been silent and steady in doing things. Today I almost started talking with Hongyan.

There are many more words.

It’s because of drinking, so have you talked more?

But at this time, looking at Qianye's smile looking up at Xue Ye, Kakashi couldn't help frowning in confusion, and such a series of thoughts flashed through his mind.

"Oh, by the way, although it hasn't been announced yet, congratulations, Chiba."

However, after thinking about it and doubting it, Kakashi still said what he wanted to say.

"Congratulations to me?"

Upon hearing this, Qianye was taken aback for a moment, and looked at Kakashi in surprise.

"Yes……"

In this regard, Kakashi said naturally.

"Puff!"

However, before he finished speaking, the sound of a heavy object falling over interrupted his words and also cut off Qianye's puzzled gaze.

Almost at the same time, Chiba and Kakashi's eyes fell behind them, which is the position of Hirohiko.

Only hearing the snoring softly, Hong Yan fell asleep directly on the ground.

And Chiba took a look at Xuenai's side, and saw that this eldest lady had also closed her eyes and breathed evenly. It seemed that she was also asleep.

This……

In this regard, the two laughed bitterly together.

The two of them, this is how bad the drinking is!

Then, after knowing that the two were asleep, Chiba also got up directly, greeted Kakashi, and went back to the back room to take out the blanket left by Kushina, and gently covered them.

"Although it hasn't been announced yet, it's basically confirmed. In the next year, you will be an S-rank ninja."

And watching Chiba cover up the blankets for Hirohiko and Xuena one by one, Kakashi lowered his voice and spoke.

"is it……"

In this regard, Chiba did not show any special expressions. He had already expected this incident, but just sat down on the other side of the small stove.

"It seems that you have already got the news."

Kakashi was not surprised by Chiba's reaction, just said.

"Congratulations too."

In this regard, Chiba also congratulated Kakashi.

"Congratulations to me?"

This time, Kakashi was taken aback.

"Congratulations on becoming the commander of the dark forces. During that time, I was too busy to congratulate you."

In response, Chiba explained.

"is it……"

Hearing this sound, which was similar to Chiba's previous reaction, Kakashi nodded without saying much.

"Speaking of which, Anbu will perform the wanted mission overseas."

At this time, Chiba asked suddenly.

"Yes, occasionally, during this period of time, the ninjas who are rebellious and internally focused, are temporarily put aside."

In response, Kakashi responded.

"Really... So, can you access some wanted ninja materials?"

Hearing this, Qianye didn't knock on the side, and asked.

"The wanted ninja information?"

Hearing what Chiba said, Kakashi was taken aback for a moment. Then, he suddenly understood something, he couldn't help but glanced at Hongyan behind him, and said, "Could it be that you want to investigate..."

"Yes, I promised Hongyan that he would definitely bring his brother back."

In this regard, Chiba did not hide it, and said truthfully.

"Chiba, are you sure? This Uchiha Nobuhiko, who everyone will know after we enter the Anbe, is also the most cunning in the history of Konoha's rebellion, and the only ninja who can't find Konoha's trace , The danger has been determined to be S-rank because he can't find a trace for many years. He can leave no traces, leaving Konoha's Anbu at a loss. The strength of this Uchiha Nobuhiko cannot be underestimated."

When he heard Chiba's words, Kakashi frowned, but he spoke solemnly.

"I know, don't worry, I'm just investigating now, and I won't be head-on. And when the time comes, there will be a Hongyan next to me, and there will be no accident."

In this regard, Chiba said lightly.

It seems that Chiba has made up his mind...but, at that time, Hongyan may not be a help!

Looking at Chiba, Kakashi's heart suddenly became clear.

"Oh...With your current task autonomy, you can take Uchiha Nobuhiko's case to yourself, and you don't need to use me to understand this case."

Then, after his heart became clear, Kakashi sighed. He knew that Chiba had made up his mind. It might even be an agreement between Chiba and Hirohiko. He also understood all the circumstances of Uchiha Nobuhiko, including that Uchiha Nobuhiko was killed. Because of Nao's elder brother, he knew that no matter what he said, it was useless, and Chiba would not stop this matter. At the moment, it can only be said.

"Really? Thanks!"

Upon hearing this sentence, a hint of joy flashed across Chiba's face.

So it can be like this!

Autonomy of this task!

A surprise thought flashed in Chiba's heart.

"Thank you, you will find a way on your own anyway, you will know sooner or later."

Regarding this ~www.NovelMTL.com~ Kakashi has recovered his usual unsalty tone.

And hearing Kakashi's voice, Chiba just smiled and said nothing.

"Happy New Year, Kakashi."

Then, after a long time, Chiba looked at Xueye and said softly but seriously.

"Ah, happy new year, Chiba."

Hearing this sound, Kakashi was stunned for a moment, then looked at a clock specially left by Kushina in Chiba, smiled slightly, and said softly but seriously.

The clock at this time has already displayed 12 o'clock.

Now it is the first day of the new year!

It seems that the new year will be troublesome!

But at this moment, the two people who exchanged a happy new year had such a thought in their hearts.
