Xiang Rin, who has been displaced by her mother since she was a child, does not understand everything. It is precisely because of this that she cherishes her life in Konoha and regards it as her belonging, instead of being treated as a precarious outsider who will be driven away at any time. .

After knowing the distress of living without a fixed place, I understand more how happy it is to have a family that can go back.

...

A month later, the Chunin exam held in Sandyin Village is very close.

This time, Asma Sarutobi, Matekai, and Kane Yuhi led a group of Konoha Shita to the Land of Winds.

At the same time, Mizuki also left Konoha Village and went to the location of the mission - the country of soup.

In this uncontested country, Jiraiya is taking Uzumaki Naruto to practice.

"Jilai also intends to open part of the seal of the gossip, so that Naruto can borrow the power of the tail beast!"

Tsunade said so.

"I need to go just in case I can understand, but wouldn't it be better to let the sky hide?"

"The Hokage-style ear-shunting technique, Kuo'an enters the hand, and Tianzang has not fully grasped it. If something happens, you and Jirai will also need to suppress the nine tails!"

Well, the reasons really cannot be refuted.

At present, Tianzang's wooden Dun is not proficient enough to suppress the out-of-control tailed beast. It can only play a preventive role in the early stage of the outbreak. Once the tailed beast chakra leaks in large quantities, there is nothing that can be done. In the Land of Wind, Shuimu lost control and almost got half-dead. He knew how powerless Mu Dun, who didn't have a Kuoan in his hands, was powerless to the tailed beast, and there was a limit to how much Mudun restrained the tailed beast.

So, Mizuki came to this strangest country in the ninja world. Everyone loves peace, but a guy like Feiduan who worships the evil **** was born.

There are not many impressive things in this small country close to the sea. The only thing that people praise is the hot springs everywhere in this country.

Due to the distance from the war, the number and combat effectiveness of ninjas in Tangnin Village have shrunk sharply. Today, nearly two generations have not experienced the baptism of war. This small country that has forgotten the war has become the most humanistic place in the ninja world. . It’s not surprising that Zilai also brought Naruto Uzumaki to visit here. The ubiquitous hot springs are also a place to enjoy.

After Mizuki came to the land of soup, he discovered that there is another most pleasing place here - Rose Street.

In this country rich in natural resources, as long as there is no damage from war, people can enjoy a leisurely life here in peace.

Rose Street is not big, just a long alley. In this alley, almost every family is keen to plant all kinds of roses, and there are always many roses outside the windows and doors of every household. Whenever there is a breeze blowing through the alley, the rose petals and the rich aroma will drift with the wind.

In an izakaya not far from Rose Street, Mizuki found Jiraiya who was drinking, while Naruto kept complaining and wanted to pull Jiraiya to teach him practice.

"Long time no see, Lord Jiraiya!"

Mizuki suddenly appeared, said hello, then turned to look at Naruto Uzumaki,

"And Naruto, who has grown a lot taller!"

Seemingly startled by the sudden appearance of Mizuki, Naruto, who was a little stunned, looked at Mizuki strangely, and then asked:

"Who are you?"

"Uh?"

Mizuki big 囧,

"Am I so unrecognizable?"

"Looking at your forehead, it should also be a Konoha ninja. Since you know my name, is it someone I know?"

Mizuki pressed Naruto's head and said in a bad tone,

"I am your respected teacher Mizuki. At the ninja school, we got along happily for many years. Now, do you remember?"

"stop it now!"

Naruto pushed Mizuki's hand away and shouted loudly,

"Teacher Mizuki, I know, you are a bit like you."

Naruto, who squinted his eyes and observed it carefully for a while, finally nodded affirmatively.

"It seems that it is really Mr. Shuimu, what are you doing here?"

"Okay, Naruto, I'm the one who called you. Today you go to practice. I still have something to tell Mizuki!"

"Hey, what a disappointment."

With a displeased expression, Naruto walked out of the izakaya alone.

"So energetic, Naruto seems to be doing well!"

"That's it!"

Jiraiya also drank the wine in the cup,

"A little late?"

"The country of soup is a peaceful country, and I can't help but slow down here. It's a good place!"

"Although the country is small, there are always people who come here because they want to experience the comfortable life here. Of course, this also reflects the unrest in other places."

"As a ninja, it's always inevitable!"

"Well, is the village okay?"

"There's nothing wrong with it other than being annoying."

"Hahaha... So, it's better to stay outside and be comfortable, don't worry about so many troubles!"

Mizuki shook his head,

"I'm not as free and easy as adults. My wife and daughter still need to be taken care of, so I can't just leave!"

"Yeah, you're married, and it's normal to have children!"

Speaking of this topic, Mizuki stopped talking about the entanglement between Jiraiya and Tsunade, and Jiraiya didn't want to talk about it.

"The village is safe and sound, so I'm relieved. However, I replied several times, but Tsunade didn't answer my question, so I wanted to go back and ask clearly, but Naruto can't let go for the time being, so I took this opportunity to ask you over here. ask."

"I see."

Mizuki nodded in understanding,

In the past two years that Jirai was not in the village, it was impossible for Jirai to not know about the rumors in the ninja world, and he was already suspicious of Tsunade Sign Language's vague attitude.

"Where do you ask first? By the way, you have seen Orochimaru in the Land of Wind, how do you feel about him?"

After thinking about it, Mizuki replied,

"I can't say it specifically, the feeling of Orochimaru is not very different. I chatted with him a few times and played a game, but it's just a point."

Shuimu, who has suffered more losses in consecutive battles, has gained a great reputation, but to be honest, it is just a more dynamic competition.

Mizuki's answer was not unexpected, either.

"Orochimaru has always been like that, it's always hard to figure out what he's thinking!"

He also sighed,

"Iwahideen Village was attacked and the five-tailed man Zhuri was robbed. I already knew. And I also learned some incredible information from secret channels. The village should know more, but Tsunade doesn't seem to want to let it go. I know!"

"Reincarnation Eye..."

"Sure enough, it's not groundless!"

It seems that Jirai, who has been entangled in this problem for a long time, also shows a helpless expression...
