Chapter 178: Meeting the Parents on New Year's Day
Chapter 178: Meeting the Parents on New Year's Day (Part and )
Hanekawa looked around and finally his eyes fell on a rock in the distance.
He swung the Thunder and Fire Sword, and the lightning he attracted was immediately released, smashing the rocks into pieces.
Hanekawa couldn't help but nodded.
Normally, he would need a lot of chakra to break the rock.
Now the chakra used to attract lightning can be saved by about half.
And in terms of power, it is even better.
Hanekawa put away the Thunder and Fire Sword and took out the information given by Qing.
There are two pieces of information above.
One is that Hatake Kakashi became a special jonin.
Second, Hatake Sakumo led his team deep into the Land of Lightning and destroyed the supply team sent by the Daimyo of the Land of Lightning.
Hanekawa stroked his chin.
This is quite a coincidence, both Hatake and his son showed their performance at the same time.
In the original work, Hatake Kakashi became a jonin at the age of twelve, but now he is only a special jonin.
Needless to say, it's because of Hanekawa's butterfly effect.
In fact, in his opinion, at the same age, Hatake Kakashi is stronger than him in the original work.
After all, Hanekawa has put enough pressure on me since I was a child.
However, when the war breaks out in the Iwagakure Village, there will basically be no problem if Hatake Kakashi becomes a jonin.
As for Hatake Sakumo, when did they go to the battlefield of Kumogakure Village?
Hanekawa didn't know about this before.
I guess he went there recently.
It seems that Orochimaru and Danzo Shimura are under a lot of pressure.
But could Sarutobi Hiruzen really let Asuma Sarutobi go to such a dangerous place?
"What are you doing? Brat!"
Tsunade's dissatisfied voice sounded behind him.
"Teacher, did I disturb you?"
Hanekawa turned around and looked at her.
"Is that the question?"
Tsunade crossed her arms, glared at him and said, "If you keep going like this, all the trees and rocks near my house will be destroyed by you!"
"This."
Hanekawa coughed lightly and said sheepishly, "I'll run farther next time."
He was eager to test his sword this time.
"Teacher, this is the information Qing passed on."
Hanekawa's eyes subconsciously swept across the plump pajamas, the collar of which was snow-white.
"Do you want to become a jonin?"
Tsunade asked after reading the information.
"I'm in no hurry."
Hanekawa said indifferently.
"Jounin can lead a team alone and get more compensation."
Tsunade asked casually, "Aren't you moved?"
"What's so exciting about this?"
Hanekawa blinked and said, "I prefer the teacher to lead me."
He has no shortage of compensation.
If you want to take in students in the future, you can consider becoming a jonin.
Now, I'd better hide in Tsunade's arms.
"That's a good reason."
Tsunade laughed when she heard that and said casually, "Then wait a few more years."
She would actually be worried if she really let Hanekawa lead the team alone.
In her opinion, his strength was sufficient, but he lacked experience. If he led the team alone, he might be in danger.
Not long after, Yuhi Kurenai and Nohara Rin arrived together.
Hanekawa told them that Hatake Kakashi became a special jonin.
"hateful!"
Xihi Kurenai couldn't help but widen her eyes, "He actually got there first!"
She had always thought that the first person in their class to become a special jonin or jonin would be Hanekawa, but she didn't expect it to be Hatake Kakashi.
"It's a pity that I can't congratulate him in person."
A smile appeared on Nohara Lin's face.
"Is Kakashi alone?"
Kurenai Yuhi suddenly thought of something and asked, "Where are Kai and Obito?"
"they do not."
Hanekawa shook his head and said.
"very good!"
Yuhi Kurenai said with full fighting spirit, "I want to be the second one!"
"Come on!"
Hanekawa smiled and patted her head.
"What about you?"
Yuhi Kurenai's eyes lit up, her ruby eyes sparkling, "You can definitely become the first jonin among us!"
Although both Special Jonin and Jonin are Jonin, there are some differences between them.
A jonin is an all-around ninja, and a special jonin is a ninja with unique talents in certain areas.
Hanekawa guessed that Hatake Kakashi became a special jonin through swordsmanship or assassination.
"You are now stronger than many jonin."
Nohara Lin echoed.
After all, even Kurisai Kushimaru, one of the famous Seven Ninja Swordsmen, died at his hands.
"we'll talk about it then."
Hanekawa said nonchalantly, "This kind of false reputation is meaningless."
"If that's the case, maybe I can become a jonin before you do!"
Yuhi Kurenai put her hands on her hips and said with a smug look on her face.
"Not bad, very energetic."
Hanekawa said with a smile, "Let's start today's training!"
"bring it on!"
Xiurihong pulled him and walked out.
Nohara Lin quickly followed.
Yuhi Kurenai practices water-style ninjutsu.
She had already learned the Dark Walk Technique that she had exchanged for before.
Nohara Lin's spiritual transformation technique is still a little lacking.
She stood not far from Hanekawa, closed her eyes, and soon her soul left her body.
Hanekawa looked at her distractedly while making seals with his hands.
Ninja Technique: Creation and Regeneration: The Art of One Hundred Healings!
The diamond-shaped mark on his forehead suddenly spread out in all directions, forming a dark red curse mark.
But the curse stopped at the neck.
This means that the release of the Ninja Technique: Creation Regeneration: Hundred Healings Technique has failed.
Because if it succeeds, dark red curse marks will spread all over the body.
Hanekawa was not discouraged. After all, it was an S-level ninjutsu and was not that easy to learn.
Two months passed in a flash, and after entering December, the atmosphere of the New Year was already there in Konoha Village.
But this year is obviously quieter than previous years.
After all, there were more than four thousand Konohagakure ninjas at the Kumogakure battlefield who were unable to return home.
Earth Escape·Yellow Quan Marsh!
Hanekawa stood outside Yuhikuren's house with his hands in seals.
In front of him, the ground turned into mud, instantly forming a huge swamp.
This ninjutsu is very useful against large summoned beasts.
In the original work, Jiraiya used it to trap Orochimaru's summoning beast, the Great Snake.
As Hanekawa used it, the progress bar finally reached 100%, and he gained a new entry.
[B-level talent entry: Earth escape special jonin. ]
[Trigger condition: The proficiency of nine earth escape ninjutsu terms reaches mastery. ]
[Effect: All earth escape effects increase by 100%. ]
[Note: Learning and mastering more earth escape ninjutsu can lead to advancement to A-level earth escape jonin.]
There were no surprising entries, but Hanekawa was one step closer to his A-rank entry, 'Almighty Jonin'.
Now all that's missing is the B-level item 'Wind Style Special Jonin' and the B-level item 'Perception Special Jonin' for synthesis.
Hanekawa let out a breath.
The efforts of these two months have not been in vain.
In addition to the B-rank entry 'Earth Style Special Jonin', he also obtained a B-rank entry.
But it is not a talent entry, but a ninjutsu entry, which is the compound ninjutsu given by Sarutobi Hiruzen, Thunder and Water Dragon Bullet.
Although a ninjutsu entry is obtained, in fact, the compound ninjutsu is not one ninjutsu, but multiple ninjutsu.
Simply put, in battle, in the same amount of time, the enemy only needs to use one ninjutsu, while Hanekawa has to use more than two ninjutsu.
This is why Sarutobi Hiruzen said that compound ninjutsu is difficult and requires a deep understanding of multiple attributes.
If you are not proficient in it and your casting speed is slower than that of your enemy, then no matter how powerful your spell is, it will be useless.
Fortunately, he has a cheat that increases his seal-making speed.
Hanekawa came to his senses, thought for a moment, and then began to practice perception ninjutsu.
He closed his eyes, and the situation around him appeared in his mind.
Not far away, Yuhi Kurenai was practicing the Water Style: Water Horn Technique. Hanekawa could even sense the turbulent water on the ground.
It was dusk.
Xihi Kurenai reached out and wiped the sweat from her forehead.
After a day of training, her chakra had been almost completely consumed.
She didn't have Hanekawa's entry system, so she couldn't become proficient just by learning. She had to spend a lot of time practicing.
"Hanekawa!"
Yuhi Kurenai jumped in front of Hanekawa in a few steps.
He looked so happy, as if all the fatigue just now had disappeared.
"red."
Hanekawa looked at her and said with a smile, "I just had an idea. How about going to the teacher's house to celebrate the New Year this year?"
In the past, he would spend the New Year at Yuhi Kurenai's house and go to Tsunade's house the next day.
"Eh?"
Xihi Hong was stunned and then her eyes widened.
“Why such a big reaction?”
Hanekawa asked with some confusion, "You don't want to go?"
"I want to go."
Yuhi Kurenai answered subconsciously, but a faint blush appeared on her face.
"...?"
Hanekawa was even more confused.
Why are you blushing?
Doesn't Tsunade see you every day? Why should I be shy about this?
"Are you going then?"
Hanekawa pinched her cheek and asked.
That's quite cute.
“I’m definitely going!”
Yuhi Kurenai bit her lip, her face a little conflicted, but she answered readily.
"Let me think about what dish to cook then."
Hanekawa began to think.
"Let's prepare the gifts first."
Yuhi Kurenai suddenly grabbed his wrist, a little nervously, and asked, "What kind of New Year's gift would Tsunade-sensei like?"
"Ah? Do you need a gift?"
Hanekawa blinked, shook his head and said, "Don't bother. The teacher won't mind if you don't bring it."
"Why not?"
Xihi Kurenai glared at him and said, "This is the first time I've been to New Year's!"
“Teachers like money.”
Hanekawa said with some amusement, "If you give her money, she will definitely be happy."
"How can it be so casual?"
Yuhi Kurenai said in a dissatisfied tone.
"I've never seen you so formal before."
Hanekawa raised his eyebrows and said.
“New Year’s Day is different!”
Yuhi Kurenai put her hands on her hips, then remembered something, put her hands down, and said, "Let's go buy two kimonos!"
"Alright."
Hanekawa nodded slightly and said, "Let's go buy groceries when the time comes."
"What gift should I give?"
Yuhi Kurenai put her finger on her chin and thought seriously.
"If you really want to give a gift, you can give a kimono."
Hanekawa thought for a moment and suggested.
"This is acceptable!"
Yuhi Kurenai's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she said, "Tsunade-sensei seems to have never worn a kimono. Buy her one, just in time for the New Year!"
Actually, I have worn it, but very rarely.
Tsunade doesn't like clothes like kimonos which are very cumbersome to wear.
Hanekawa thought that maybe he could help her put it on in the future.
He is very confident in wearing a kimono.
"Go back to the house and eat."
Hanekawa held Yuhi Kurenai's hand and walked into the house.
"Go wash your hands."
Yuhi Shinku had become accustomed to the intimacy between the two and simply ignored their hand holding.
While Hanekawa was eating, he suddenly came to his senses.
Xiurihong cares so much, does she think she is going to meet the parents?
If you think about it carefully, it's really possible.
Hanekawa is an orphan, and Tsunade is his only elder, which is equivalent to his parent.
In addition, it is a special time during the Chinese New Year, so it is normal for Xi Ri Hong to have misunderstandings.
Hanekawa couldn't help but sigh that this little girl has grown up and has started to pay attention to these things.
The time came to December 31st, the New Year's Eve, which was New Year's Eve in the previous life.
"Let's go! Dad!"
After breakfast, Yuhi Kurenai pulled Hanekawa out.
Xihi Zhenhong let out a long sigh.
He naturally knew what it meant that his daughter was spending the New Year away from home.
After all, girls can't be kept when they grow up.
But fortunately, Hanekawa is indeed good enough and there is nothing to complain about.
"Wow! It's so lively!"
Xi Rihong looked at the people coming and going on the road and couldn't help but become more excited.
"After all, tomorrow is New Year's Day."
Hanekawa brushed the snow off her and asked, "Should we go buy an umbrella?"
"It's okay. It's not snowing heavily."
Xihihong's face turned slightly red, and she said, "Besides, snow will create the New Year atmosphere."
"scarf."
Hanekawa handed her a white scarf.
The red ribbon was wrapped around her neck, and combined with her red coat, it looked fluffy.
Seeing this, Hanekawa couldn't help but touch her head.
"Ouch, stop messing up my hair!"
Yuhi Hong rolled her eyes at him but did not stop him.
"How's that kimono shop? It looks like it's doing good business."
Hanekawa noticed the kimono shop not far away and asked.
"Go and see!"
Yuhi Kurenai walked into the kimono shop and immediately looked around.
"How about this black and red kimono?"
Hanekawa pointed to the kimono on the wall and said, "I think you would look great in this one."
"Then this one!"
Yuhi Kurenai looked at him, then looked at the kimono and said.
"what?"
Hanekawa looked surprised and asked, "Why don't you choose two more?"
"I believe in your vision!"
As Xihi Kurenai spoke, her face became red.
“Just buy what you like.”
Hanekawa smiled and said, "I'm just making a suggestion."
"Who said I don't like this?"
Xihihong snorted and asked.
"I buy for you."
Hanekawa paused and asked, "By the way, take a look at which kimonos are suitable for the teacher."
"broken!"
Yuhi Kurenai suddenly remembered something and said, "I forgot to ask Tsunade-sensei about her clothing size."
"It's okay, I know."
Hanekawa said nonchalantly.
"How did you know?"
Xihi Kurenai looked at him subconsciously.
"I bought clothes for the teacher before."
Hanekawa remained calm and changed the subject, asking, "What do you think of this kimono?"
Xihihong raised her eyes and looked over.
It is an overall white kimono, but the upper part has a light green lining with a hint of gold.
"It feels a bit like what the teacher usually wears."
Xihi Kurenai said thoughtfully.
Hanekawa nodded.
This kimono reminded him of Tsunade, the chivalrous hero in the mobile game "Naruto".
