Namikaze Minato's original words were: "It feels like that child has been secretly looking at him. Maybe he wants to communicate with him about something, but he is probably a little introverted and shy in terms of personality..."
Namikaze Minato talked about the story in a long-winded way, and when relaying it, Nara Kano directly made drastic and streamlined edits.
'Is Yongdaimei's perception so keen? Didn't I just take another look...'
Hearing the words of the old patriarch, Nara Langui felt an inexplicable feeling of embarrassment in his heart.
'By the way, Yongdaimei is still a perceptive ninja...'
After going through all kinds of reasons in his mind, Nara Langui finally chose to confess.
"There's nothing special I want to discuss with Namikaze Jonin, I just want to challenge him."
"Challenge Minato?"
Nara Shikano raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.
"Why?
"To be honest, in my opinion, the more suitable opponent for you now is actually a chuunin of the same age like Sarutobi Asuma.
"Minato's strength is very strong, especially his teleportation technique. There are not many ninjas in Konoha who can guarantee that they can beat him."
The old patriarch indeed has a plan to train Nara Langui.
Various rewards were given before.
On the one hand, it is because of the value of [lacquer eye], and on the other hand, it is to make up for the "natural shortcomings" of Nara Langui.
For a ninja, the best weapon is always chakra.
When ordinary ninjas extract chakra, they are basically in high-speed battles that are constantly moving.
Facing such a battle situation, it is not easy to refine chakra skillfully.
It is even more difficult to accurately control and maintain the output of chakra.
But now that Nara Langui has a [Chakra Crystal] that resonates with himself, the amount of chakra is no longer a problem that limits him.
In the opinion of the old patriarch, the most important task for the current Nara Langui is to skillfully use the abundant energy contained in [Chakra Crystals].
The second is to enhance one's own physique and enhance combat experience, especially physical combat experience.
The body is the basis of all battles.
But in order to gain combat experience, challenge Namikaze Minato?
Nara Shikano imagined the battle scene between Minato and Lan Gui in his mind——
Lan Gui used the secret technique of shadow and failed to catch up with Minato's movement speed. Minato came close, pulled out his kunai, and slashed his head...
What kind of combat experience can this gain?
Any experience of having your neck wiped? !
Hearing the old patriarch's question, Nara Langui pursed his lips.
This was also the reason why he had been hesitant to challenge Yong Daimei before.
Of course, Nara Lan Gui covets the challenging task of taking care of his sister forever.
But I really can't find a suitable and valid reason.
In the ninja world, even ninjas from the same village rarely compete with each other to prevent information about their abilities from being leaked.
Unless they are teammates on the same team, or loved ones or friends.
But Nara Langui and Namikaze Minato are not related, and today is their first official meeting.
It's really a lack of discernment to rashly talk about wanting to challenge the other party!
Damn it, but...
"The reason why I want to challenge Namikaze Minato Jonin."
Nara Langui took out a breath and said bluntly.
"It's because he is Namikaze Minato!"
"That's a very beautiful thing to say."
The old patriarch shook his head, his attitude noncommittal.
"But when did Minato become so famous?"
Seeing the old patriarch shaking his head, Nara Langui thought that his challenge to Namikaze Minato was in vain.
What I didn't expect was...
"Come with me. If you don't explain things clearly, I'm worried that Minato won't be able to sleep at night."
The old patriarch waved to Nara Langui.
“But don’t have high hopes for challenging Minato.
"Besides, even if Minato really agrees to your challenge...well, Lan Gui, I hope you'll be mentally prepared."
Mountain darkly, vista?
No matter how unfavorable the old patriarch's attitude was, Nara Langui's mood was calm and joyful.
Although, if you get the guarantee, it will be considered a success!
Under the leadership of the old patriarch, Nara Langui thought that he would meet Namikaze Minato soon.
But when the two arrived at the location, they only saw Akimichi Choza who had basically recovered.
"Minato just sensed something, saying that another group of people are approaching here, most likely bounty hunters."
Before Nara Shikano could speak, Akimichi Choza explained directly.
"He took Haiyi to check the situation. He should be back soon."
"These bounty hunters really want money rather than their lives."
Nara Shikano's attitude was very cold, and then he warned again.
"Ding Zao, after returning to the village, remember to go to Konoha Hospital for a physical check-up.
"Although the medical ninjutsu scroll has healed your injuries, the people who use it are those of us who are not familiar with medical ninjutsu. We cannot guarantee that its therapeutic effect will be absolutely perfect."
The medical ninjutsu scroll that Namikaze Minato brought from the village was essentially the medical ninjutsu Yang Era chakra that had been refined in advance and injected into the scroll through the sealing technique.
When you need to use it, open the scroll and aim the sealed Yang Escape Chakra at the patient's wound to speed up the patient's healing and recovery speed.
This kind of medical ninjutsu scroll is not only difficult to manufacture, but also the raw materials are very expensive, and the healing effect is not as good as that of professional medical ninjas, so it has great limitations in its use.
Only injured people like Akimichi Choza who were injured in sudden encounters and did not have medical ninja assistance around them would need the help of medical ninjutsu scrolls.
Due to family reasons, Nara Langui was relatively familiar with medical ninjutsu scrolls. In Nara drugstores, these scrolls were the kind of "expensive garbage" that sat deep in the warehouse and ate dust.
Those who can afford it cannot afford it, and those who can afford it cannot afford it.
The medical ninjutsu scroll is probably such an existence.
In contrast, although other Five Elements Escape Scrolls are also expensive, there is always a certain demand market.
Akimichi Tingzao nodded and was about to answer something.
A golden light flashed, and Namikaze Minato and Yamanaka Haiichi appeared in front of the three people.
'Is this the art of Flying Thunder God? '
Nara Langui looked at Yong Daimei in surprise, while Yamanaka Haiichi, who also had yellow hair on his side, was ignored by him.
'And it's the improved Flying Thunder God! '
Namikaze Minato first reported to Nara Kano the situation he had just discovered: a group of very ordinary bounty hunters were running around in the Land of Fire in order to search for the descendants of the Blood Pond clan.
"Still no information about Kakuzu?" Nara Kano asked.
"not at all."
Yamanaka Haiichi shook his head.
"This group of bounty hunters at night did not know the existence of Kakuzu at all, and they did not receive any special information from the money exchange."
"It seems that Kakuzu has really given up chasing us."
Nara Shikano nodded slightly.
"But don't be careless. We will alternate vigils tonight. Minato and Haiichi will each be responsible for a period of security duties."
Namikaze Minato and Yamanaka Haiichi naturally nodded in agreement.
Next, Namikaze Minato turned his attention to Nara Langui.
He first glanced at Nara Langui, then shifted his gaze to Nara Shikano, and searched with his eyes.
Nara Shikano also glanced at Nara Langui, and then took the two of them to bid farewell to Yamanaka Haiichi and Akimichi Choza, and came to an open space not far from the camp.
Under the moonlight.
The old patriarch said straight to the point: "Lan Gui wants to challenge you!"
"Um?"
Namikaze Minato's first reaction was that Kano Nara was joking.
But he immediately realized that Mr. Shikano was not Jiraiya's teacher. He was mature and calm and would not joke at all.
so……
This kid peeked at me so many times in the afternoon, but he just wanted to challenge me?
For some reason, Namikaze Minato felt a mixture of surprise and disappointment in his heart.
"If you challenge me, you can."
Namikaze Minato put away the distracting thoughts in his heart and showed a gentle smile.
"It's just that it's night now. According to my understanding, the shadow secret technique of the Nara clan will be weakened to a certain extent at night.
"How about we wait until we return to the village and find time to compete and learn from each other?"
What can Nara Langui say?
"OK."
Nara Langui nodded somewhat reluctantly.
When they met for the first time, it was rude enough for him to challenge the other person.
But Namikaze Minato is still so considerate.
He is really... worthy of being the little sun!
"Thank you so much! And so sorry!"
Nara Langui bowed slightly.
"My request was too presumptuous."
"Where there."
Namikaze Minato smiled and waved his hand.
"Guiding the juniors is a responsibility that one has to shoulder as a senior.
"Wherever the leaves are flying, the fire will continue to grow, and the fire will continue to illuminate the village and make new leaves sprout.
"To me, Nara-kun, you are the new sprout of Konoha."
Although I feel in my heart that "The Will of Fire" is extremely empty and lacks practical guidance.
But this is the first time Nara Langui has heard such a good and pleasing song "The Will of Fire"!
The approximate time and place for the discussion have been agreed upon.
The three of Nara Langui returned to the camp and rested at night.
The next day came, and the Konoha ninjas were carrying out the B-level mission [Bounty Hunter] in an orderly manner.
By the time we saw the main gate of Konoha, it was already evening.
The bounty hunters near the official road of the Fire Country have been basically cleared away.
Back in the village, Minato Namikaze, Asuma Sarutobi, Kano Nara and others went to the Hokage Building to deliver the mission.
Nara Langui originally wanted to follow the old patriarch, but was persuaded back by his words, "You are just the task client."
When he returned to the apartment next to the Ninja School, a prompt popped up on Nara Langui's panel.
[It has been detected that the A-level ninja commissioned mission scroll has been submitted! 】
[[A-level mission: "Tribute"] has been completed! 】
[You get an A-level [Ninja Secret Scroll]! 】
