"Kushina?" Bai Yu was stunned. Kushina's outfit completely hit his XP system.
"Lord Orochimaru."
Kushina came to the four of them, bowed slightly to Orochimaru, and winked at Bai Yu.
"My name is Uzumaki Kushina. I will join the team from today. Please give me your advice."
With that said, Kushina hugged Bai Yu's arm and said hello to Uchiha Chiho and Hyuuga Hideto.
"Hello, I'm Hideto Hyuga, whom I met before." Hideto showed a friendly smile.
Seeing that Kushina and Bai Yu have a good relationship, Bai Yu still has to give her face.
Although Bai Yu is the "weakest" among the team members, apart from being slightly inferior in strength, he is also very strong in mind, ability, and medical ninjutsu.
The British were very convinced of this.
"My name is Uchiha Chiho, hello." Chiho said expressionlessly, with a somewhat "cold" attitude.
After all, Bai Yu often emphasized to her not to express "friendliness" casually, and if you don't want to laugh, don't laugh.
"Yes." Kushina nodded with a smile, looking at Chiho's delicate and beautiful face, with a vigilant look in her eyes, but when she looked down, when she saw her flat chest, Kushina subconsciously held her head high.
Bai Yu felt that the atmosphere was a little subtle, so he hurriedly said: "Let's set off quickly."
Orochimaru glanced at Bai Yu with interest:
"Set off."
...
That night.
Fire Nation, Northern Frontier.
Shiroha, Kushina, Chiho, Hideto, and Orochimaru were camping in the forest.
Orochimaru leaned against the tree trunk and remained alert.
The other four people were roasting the game they had caught around the campfire.
For Orochimaru, the essence of this mission is to bring Kushina out for some experience.
The Ninja World War has ended for nearly two years. The Ninja World is basically relatively stable. It is close to the border post and security is very guaranteed. However, Orochimaru has developed the habit of being cautious.
Sizzling...
Sizzling...
Accompanied by the crackling sound of burning firewood, Chiho skewered the hare on a stick and simmered with oil. After sprinkling the seasoning, the fragrance spread.
Feeling that it was almost done, Chiho tore off a rabbit leg and gave it to Bai Yu who was closer to her.
Bai Yu took the rabbit leg and was about to put it into his mouth when he suddenly made a move.
There is murderous intent!
He turned his head and looked to the left, only to see Kushina looking at him sideways, her eyes a little penetrating.
"Kushina, you eat first." Bai Yu handed over the rabbit leg.
"No need! My roast is almost ready!" Kushina snorted.
Chiho tore off another rabbit leg and gave it to Hideto. She stood up and gave the remaining rabbit meat to Orochimaru: "Teacher Orochimaru."
Orochimaru shook his head and said no.
Chiho returned to the campfire and saw Bai Yu destroying the rabbit's legs with two big mouths, and tore off a rabbit front leg for him.
At this time, Kushina suddenly placed a whole roasted rabbit in front of Bai Yu: "Eat mine!"
Bai Yu looked at half of the rabbit meat that was completely burnt and blackened, and the corner of his mouth twitched:
"Kushina, do you want to poison me?"
"What? Am I not good at baking?" Kushina was very unconvinced.
"Please look at the back, do you only grill one side of the meat?" Bai Yu gently held the burnt side of the rabbit meat with two fingers and turned it over to show Kushina.
Kushina's face turned red and she said harshly: "It's my first time to cook, so it's normal for me to make some mistakes. Just tell me whether you want to eat it or not?"
"If you can eat it, I will definitely eat it. Otherwise, you can take a bite first and then I will eat it."
Bai Yu teased.
"Hmph! As long as I practice a few times, I will definitely be able to do it!" Kushina snorted and threw the rabbit meat in her hand to the ground.
At this time, Chiho handed the last rabbit leg to Kushina.
Kushina frowned slightly, feeling provoked. I wanted to refuse directly, but I couldn't help but protested.
Gu~
After a day's journey, she was so hungry that her chest pressed against her back.
"Have some backbone, don't..." Kyuubi's voice sounded from the sealed space.
However, before it finished speaking, Kushina took the rabbit leg from Chiho and said:
"Thanks."
Kyuubi was angry and said: "You are too dissatisfied!"
"My name is...know yourself and your enemy and you'll be victorious in any battle, that's what Bai Yu said." Kushina replied seriously. When the rabbit meat was put into her mouth, her eyes suddenly lit up.
"tasty!"
It was obviously a hare, but it didn't have any earthy smell at all. It was roasted to a crisp on the outside and tender on the inside. When she took a bite, the aroma immediately bloomed in her taste buds. The spicy and salty taste was her favorite.
All right.
In terms of cooking skills, Chiho is a little ahead for now.
Seeing Kushina eating off the rabbit legs in just a few bites, Chiho tore off half of the rabbit body and gave it to her: "If it's not enough, I'll bake it."
"Okay!" Kushina nodded repeatedly. She was not greedy, but for learning.
"..." Kyuubi fell into silence.
"Leave some for me..." Bai Yu said faintly.
Good guy, he thought there would be a Shura field, but he didn't expect that Kushina was here to trick him into eating and drinking!
Bai Yu could sense that Kushina was slightly hostile towards Chiho.
Chiho is a very nice person, and her appearance is also very beautiful. Although she looks cold, she is actually emotionally slow.
But Bai Yu didn't have any evil thoughts towards her.
Bai Yu felt that as long as he practiced normally, it would be a matter of time before he was promoted to a first-level warlock. By then, his lifespan would have made a qualitative leap.
Kushina has a very good relationship with him, she is very talented, and with Kyuubi, the strongest tailed beast, there is a great chance that she can break through the lifespan limit of mortals in the future.
In fact, the two of them had a tacit understanding for a long time, and there was only a thin layer between them to confirm their relationship.
The reason why Bai Yu didn't speak was because the relationship between the wizard and the warlock was very extravagant.
The road to pursuing eternity is not an easy one.
He didn't know how far he could go, and he didn't know if anyone could keep walking with him.
He will help Kushina as much as possible, but he still has some concerns in his heart.
From beginning to end, Bai Yu could not regard himself as a wizard who could give up everything in order to pursue the truth.
In order to pursue eternity, he can give up the human form without hesitation, but he cannot completely give up human emotions.
Because he feels that this is the foundation of being a "human being".
...
On the third day, a group of five people came to the capital of Tian Zhiguo. The daimyo of Tian Zhiguo personally received them and showed great enthusiasm.
Their mission this time was to escort a wandering ninja who was causing trouble in the Country of Grass to the Country of Grass.
Then escort the escort team from the Country of Grass to Ghost Lantern City.
Oniden Castle is a prison commissioned by Kusakuin Village from various countries to hold criminal ninjas. It is located on an island in the northern part of Takino Country, surrounded by the sea. It is named after the island is covered with a kind of sour berry called "Oniden".
If ninjas from all over the world commit serious crimes that violate ninja principles, but the crime does not lead to death, they will be escorted to Ghost Light City.
However, the people imprisoned in Ghost Lantern City are basically ninjas from small countries.
War between big countries can easily lead to the destruction of small countries.
This is also a huge flaw in the one-village-one-country system.
Ninjas are not engaged in production, and many ninjas know nothing but fighting. Once a country is destroyed, or the economic system collapses due to war, there will be a surge in wandering ninjas.
Some wandering ninjas who are unwilling to change their jobs may be forced to steal and rob to make a living. They do violate ninja principles, but compared with those wandering ninjas who kill civilians indiscriminately, there is still a bottom line.
If a policy of extermination were adopted against all wandering ninjas, the consequences would be serious.
It is not difficult for even a genin to kill a dozen armed civilians.
Anyway, if you are caught, you will die, so you will naturally be unscrupulous.
Generally, ninjas who are captured in Ghost Lantern City will be released after being transformed and reformed.
Of course, the Country of Grass does not do good deeds for free.
The ninjas of Grass Ninja Village are good at studying ninjutsu from other countries.
When some ninjas from small countries enter Ghost Lantern City, it is naturally easy to obtain secret techniques from them. This is also the default thing of all countries.
"In the plot, the Ninja Village was established in the Kingdom of Tian. Now the daimyo of the Kingdom of Tian has treated Orochimaru very favorably. If the Kingdom of Whirlpool is to be re-established..."
On the way to the Grass Ninja Village, Bai Yu was thinking about the resources that could be used.
Kushina and him are not short of money now, but they are short of talents and land.
If you rebuild the country directly at the ruins of the Kingdom of Whirlpool, you will definitely be attacked by the Great Ninja Village, so you have to plan in advance.
Tian no Kuni can serve as a springboard.
