Chapter 366 The Strength of a Strong Man

"Sure enough, it's New Year's Eve, and Konoha has a lot more familiar faces. 』

On the way home, Mizuki had already greeted several people who passed by. It seems that people who are rarely seen in normal times can get together, no, the mountain city Aoba and Shiranui Genma are walking in front of them.

"Mizuki, long time no see!" Yamashiro Aoba greeted Mizuki from afar.

"It's been a long time since I saw you. I've been too busy recently."

"I heard, the Chunin exam, we are about to be driven crazy by Tsunade-sama, endless tasks." Said Yamashiro Aoba with an exaggerated expression.

Mizuki smiled and replied: "You can also tell such a cold joke? I thought only Haifeng would do such a thing. What are you and Xuanjian planning to do?"

"Go to Ebisu and Kazutoshi for a drink!"

"Are you going to drink? It's really free. I went to Longin Village, and I was half frozen to death. I just came back today!"

"Oh, that means you are free now? Do you want to have a drink together?"

"No, I have to go home first." Mizuki said politely.

"I almost forgot, you are different from us, you are a family man."

Yamashiro Aoba's pretentious expression made Shiranui Genma and Mizuki both smile.

"Next time, I'm not at home often recently, I have to spend more time with Xiao Chun, sorry."

"Understood. This time we are just a desperate communication between like-minded people." Yamashiro Aoba said in a low voice: "Actually, I, Xuanma, and Leitong will be the team leader next year to teach the freshly graduated jinn, so we will I want to talk to an experienced teacher like Ebisu!"

"Then you will be busy in the future."

Especially the top ninja is also the top ninja, the ability and qualifications to teach the low ninja newcomers are not a problem.

"Yeah," Yamashiro Aoba sighed and said, "Stop talking, let's talk later, the agreed time is coming soon."

Saying goodbye to Yamashiro Aoba and Shiranui Genma, Mizuki quickened the pace of going home.

"I always feel that the idle character design of Aoba in the mountain city is getting more and more broken, and the movements and expressions are much more exaggerated than before. Could it be that it is also influenced by me? 』

...

When Mizuki came home, it was still early, and Xiaochun was staying at home. Surprisingly, not only Xiaochun was alone in the house, but also Xianglin was there. When Mizuki opened the door and entered, they were cooking dinner.

"Senior Mizuki, are you back?"

"It's Xianglin, I haven't seen you for a while, she seems to have grown a lot taller!"

As Mizuki said, he walked into the back room and put away the things he was carrying.

"It's just in time to come back, and it's almost time to eat. Is the mission going well?"

"It's quite ordinary, nothing special, but it's too far away, it's just a waste of time!" Mizuki turned and walked into the bathroom, took a simple shower, changed into clean clothes, and prepared to eat.

The three of them sat at the same table to eat, and it happened once or twice before, but this time, Xianglin was not as reserved as before.

Xiao Chun said with a smile: "Mizuki, when you're not here, Xiang Lin occasionally comes to talk to me, and it doesn't seem boring. By the way, your disciple Xiao Ying also came twice, but you are not here."

"Sakura, it shouldn't be a big problem. There should be my clone at the flower shop, and any troubles should be solved."

Sakura came here because she probably had a problem in practice that needed to be answered. After all, the technique that Mizuki gave her was not so easy to master.

In comparison, the red-haired and conspicuous Xiang Rin came a lot more often. Although the relationship with Haruno Sakura and Yamanaka Ino is not bad, it is impossible for Xiang Rin who is alone to go to their house to disturb them all the time. There is also Shizune's house that takes good care of Karin, which is also a very good place, but as the Fifth Generation Hokage's assistant, she has too many things to do, and she doesn't have much time to take care of this little sister.

Therefore, Xiao Chun, who has been with her for a long time and is familiar with her, is the most suitable person for Xiang Ling to chatter with. Just like the last chat in the hospital, Xianglin would come to Mizuki's house to help when she had time. When Xiao Chun is bored, it is also good to have someone to accompany her.

"Karin, you really feel better!" 』

At the dinner table, Mizuki and Xiaotsubaki ate quietly, but Xiang Rin, who was originally timid, began to chatter about interesting things about her work, the satisfaction of being grateful after helping others with medical ninjutsu, and the feeling of being needed by others. The joy of blending into Konoha was vividly displayed on her smiling face.

Seeing the red-haired little girl gradually showing the temperament that a child of this age should have, Mizuki couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The values ​​that Konoha has inherited for a long time are still very friendly. The will of fire that promotes love and justice, as well as the consistent attitude of the overlord of the ninja world, have created Konoha Ninja's pride and self-confidence, and the small country of Kusanagi Village. The mentality is completely different, xenophobic, overbearing, harsh and indifferent are the portrayals of those people.

In Mizuki's eyes, if Taki Shinobi still manages to maintain the dignity of a strong man, other small Ninja villages are just a bunch of smugglers struggling to survive. I can't even take care of myself, how can I have a good impression of the outsider who has taken refuge? Squeezing out their value and throwing it away is a common thing.

Only in Konoha, who takes maintaining the order of the ninja world as his own responsibility, will he have an eclectic tolerance, not only because of the great value of the Uzumaki family's adaptation to Renzhuriki's body, but also because of the confidence that he can accept and influence the world, even if it is other people. The Four Great Ninja Villages also don't have the stamina of Konoha.

Jiraiya could also teach Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan for several years, even if he saw Nagato's reincarnation eyes, he didn't rush to bring Konoha back, but let it grow freely. If it is in other ninja villages, this is simply impossible. Privately teach ninjas in other ninja villages and accept them as disciples. If it is serious, it may be deemed as rebellious ninja. There is also Medicine Master Dou, if Medicine Master No Naoyu had not died, this smart and genius ninja might have become the pillar of Konoha.

『Bringing Karin to Konoha Village, it is really great. 』

Mizuki, who has a lot of affairs, will not force it deliberately to save good affairs from disasters, but doing good deeds smoothly is also a thing that makes him happy.

"Listen to me, Senior Mizuki, Sister Tsubaki..." Xiang Rin couldn't help showing off, "Senior Shizune told me that if I continue to behave well, I will become Konoha's official ninja later! "

"That's right!" Xiaochun was very happy with Xianglin's changes, "You did a good job, you must wear the forehead protector and let me see it."

"Yeah." Xianglin nodded heavily in agreement.
