Chapter 189 Gossip
Mizuki wasn't worried about Xiang Rin's problem at first, he didn't expect it to be so early, and he shouldn't just come to him so loudly.
Xiaochun is a good talker, but it doesn't mean that he has no opinions, won't be dissatisfied with Mizuki, and won't lose his temper.
Originally, Mizuki planned to discuss with Xiaochun how to deal with it after Xianglin informed him. As a result, without any warning, he brought a strange little girl back home. This kind of thing is worse no matter how you think about it.
Mizuki is quite sure that Xiang Rin will be accepted in good faith. Xiao Chun is not the kind of person who is too stingy to show affection, and it is not difficult to take care of a half-grown little girl. The point is that Mizuki has been hiding this matter, so it's hard to explain clearly. The two who are going to be married are still hiding something about such an important matter. No one will be happy when encountering such a thing. Xiaochun asked more than once before, but Mizuki carelessly ignored some less urgent matters, forgetting about Xianglin, but unexpectedly, this little girl suddenly appeared in front of him today.
But today, it was a rare lunch with Xiaochun, because Mizuki felt uncomfortable because of the addition of another person.
"Xiaochun, do you have anything to say?"
Seeing the three eating in harmony on the surface, Mizuki couldn't help asking.
"It's nothing, you have arranged everything, just do as you said."
Xiaochun said calmly.
"This, don't you still need your help? I can't do anything alone."
It seems that he is really angry, it is obviously not a trivial matter, but the reaction is so flat, it seems to be troublesome.
For this fiancée, who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, although she has not had a strong sense of presence, she is actually a very assertive person. She really made up her mind, and it is difficult for Mizuki to persuade her to make a change. In this ninja world where force is paramount, many female ninjas who are in a disadvantaged position show a rather strong appearance to cover up their natural weakness. But Tsubaki is different. Sometimes, Mizuki feels that this buried female ninja in the ninja world, if she is really given a chance, may be much better than most of the ninjas in Konoha. Just looking at her talent in changing the nature of Chakra, it is amazing.
When Mizuki was suffering from a headache, Xiang Lin, who had eaten a lot, raised her head and asked worriedly, "Did I cause you trouble?"
"It's okay, it doesn't matter, it's not you who caused trouble." Xiao Chun comforted Xiang Lin.
"I'm sorry, Xiaochun, I won't hide it from you anymore." Mizuki could only say with a smile, "Look, is this just the way it is?"
"Oh." Xiaochun replied noncommittally, and then said: "Mizuki, although I don't understand some things, it's not that I don't understand at all."
"Understand what?" The sudden topic made Mizuki a little strange.
"Your current state is very dangerous, Mizuki." Xiaochun replied: "You have told me almost all your actions, and you have not deceived me. However, it does not mean that you have not concealed the truth."
"Hiding up?" The development of the topic immediately made Mizuki feel a little bad.
"What are you worried about? Mizuki, you never said it." Xiao Chun looked into Mizuki's eyes very seriously, "So many research results and semi-finished products, these are all great killers, why don't you Are you dissatisfied?"
"Hey, did you still ask? These days, it's hard for you..."
While talking, Mizuki stretched out his hands, and moved the chakra in the seal. With the activation of the barrier in the room, Xiang Rin, who was watching Mizuki and Xiaotsubaki talking anxiously, suddenly felt drowsy, and then quickly fell down. Passed out at the dinner table.
"It's time for the village to calm down now. Everyone can see it. Even if you are a little nervous now, there will definitely be no major problems in a short time. But your recent performance has not slackened in the slightest. What are you preparing for? Need you, who is already a Jonin elite, to be so cautious? Master Tsunade is back, so you shouldn’t have to worry about Elder Shimura Danzo for the time being, right?”
"I know, Tsubaki."
If it's just this matter, what is Mizuki worried about? Hold on to Hokage's thigh and be honest. The key is that the enemy is too strong. The power of the Six Paths of Samsara Eye is simply devastating. Mizuki tried the weakened version of the Earth Explosion Star himself, and he was scared .
There are also behind-the-scenes gangsters taking turns to fight, one is bigger than the other, one is more powerful than the other, and there are even inexplicable existences that have not shown up, Mizuki feels that one is more difficult to deal with. If you don't hurry up, you really have to wait for Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto to turn the tide. At that time, almost all the ninjas will die.
"Then why are you making so many things?"
Many of Mizuki's experiments are actually on the verge of morality. Although there are no problems now, it does not mean that there will be no problems in the future. Xiao Chun, who saw it in his eyes, participated in it after knowing the inside story. Of course, it was to help, but also to prevent Mizuki from going further and further down this road, and finally getting out of hand like Orochimaru.
"I can't say too much now, but Xiaochun, what I can tell you is that there are enemies, very strong, I'm not sure..."
"Very strong? How strong? Is it stronger than Orochimaru and Jiraiya-sama, one of the Sannin? Isn't there Tsunade-sama?"
"Sannin?" Mizuki smiled wryly, "Much stronger than the three of them combined?"
"What? There are still people who are so strong in the ninja world?"
"If they can even be called human beings, they do exist."
Shocked by the facts that Mizuki said, Xiaochun also took a long time to digest before reacting.
"If it's true, it's really scary."
"Trust me?"
"You won't lie to me." Xiaochun replied, "The most you can do is hide it. You won't do things like lying to me."
Although I feel a little relieved to be trusted so much, I always feel a little ashamed.
"Mizuki, haven't you ever thought about asking for help? Tsunade-sama is not such a rigid person, so he should listen to you."
"We have a tacit agreement on some things, but this kind of clueless intelligence..." Mizuki shook his head, "Will you believe what I say, and will others believe it?"
Not only that, but the source of intelligence is also a big problem. If you don't speak clearly, you may get into trouble yourself. And now, the reckless behavior of this little girl, Xiang Rin, has exposed many things, and she also said some things that should not be said, which made Mizuki have a headache to explain, for example, why did she appear in a place where there was no task during the Chunin exam? Time to enter the forest of death and more.
Xiao Chun was also speechless about Mizuki's question. Not everyone will choose to trust Mizuki unconditionally.
After thinking about it, Xiaochun then asked, "Is this little girl also one of the necessary means for you to prepare?"
"It doesn't count. In fact, it might have been of great value earlier, but it is not so indispensable now."
Xianglin a few months ago might be of great use to Mizuki, but now, it is not so necessary.
"All right, let me handle it."
Seeing Xiaochun was finally relieved, and Mizuki felt relieved. With Mizuki alone, there is no time to arrange for this little girl.
...
Originally, Mizuki was only famous outside of Konoha Village, but Mizuki was not well-known in the village. This time, Mizuki finally became famous in the village. Unfortunately, Mizuki would rather not have such a reputation. Mizuki, who was originally not particularly conspicuous in appearance, is now walking on the street, and people point and point him from time to time.
As a young man who is about to get married, when the village has just calmed down, it can be regarded as a lot of attention. But unexpectedly, the young Mizuki was suddenly approached by a little girl by name, and because of many reasons, he was unable to spread the truth of the matter openly. All kinds of "gossip" began to spread uncontrollably.
If it is normal to say that it is normal to seek relatives and revenge, the gossip of "new Jinnin abducting ignorant women" began to spread throughout Konoha through the chatter among housewives in the streets and alleys. People who don't even know Xiang Rin's exact age, if they are not familiar with it, they will completely regard Mizuki as a scumbag who starts to mess up and ends up abandoning. As for the even more outrageous rumors that the illegitimate daughter came to look for her biological father, I don't know which guy who watched the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal said it casually after drinking too much. As a result, Mizuki had to temporarily disappear in front of everyone, waiting to avoid the limelight.
In Ninja School, Umino Iruka, a model teacher who loves his job and is dedicated to work, sees Mizuki Lai not leaving here, and it is also a very headache.
"Mizuki, how long are you going to stay? It's been a day. Aren't you going to get married? There's nothing else to do?"
"With Xiaochun here, it's okay. If I go out now, it will only be a disservice."
"However, hiding here is not an option."
"The adults here know me well, and the others are children who don't know the world. I like it so much."
"Well, you are still a teacher now, so it's okay to come here? But Mizuki, since you're here, do you teach the students a few lessons? Usually, there's nothing to come to the Ninja School to teach."
"No, I'm on vacation."
"Don't say that, you're free anyway, I've already told my students that it's rare to have ninja elites come to class, everyone is very interested."
"Iruka, you've learned badly too..."
On the other side, in Hokage's office, Tsunade was holding Karin's final test report.
"Is there more?"
"That's all." Jing Yin said, "These circumstances are enough to prove that what Mizuki said is indeed true."
"Well, I understand." Although Mizuki's words were already believed in his heart, Tsunade was finally at ease with the real evidence in hand.
"Is there anything else important today?"
"Also." Shizune replied: "There is no information from Jiraiya-sama's routine contact, and there seems to be something wrong with Anbu who is monitoring and tracking Orochimaru..."
