Konoha's Immortal Disciple

Chapter 3 Do you want to be a ninja?

Beside the fire, Jilai had already bandaged Hoshinoshu's wound, and he sat on the stone quietly watching the sleeping child.

He remembered that the traitor he killed had a small wound on his hand, the size of the wound was just enough to accommodate the knife that had just been inserted into the child's calf.

"Could it be this kid did it?" Thinking of the prophecy of Immortal Toad, Zilai couldn't help but have this guess, because there were only three of them near the scene.

But he shook his head again. After all, the kid looked only four or five years old. No matter how you looked at it, it was impossible for an adult ninja to be hurt by a little furry kid.

Hoshino felt a little pain in his calf, and his consciousness gradually came to life, and when he woke up, he saw the burning fire and Jiraiya sitting beside the fire.

"Yo, kid, you're awake." Jiraiya looked at Hoshino.

"Thank you for saving me." Hoshino Shu's spirit was still a little weak, and he yawned after speaking, and he almost said the words Jiraiya.

Jilai also thought that it was because of sudden misfortune that he was depressed after being hit, and couldn't help showing a pitiful expression, then handed the freshly grilled fish to Hoshinoshu.

"Hungry, eat this first to fill your stomach."

In fact, Hoshino just woke up from the pain of the wound and didn't sleep well.

He took the grilled fish, and the aroma of the grilled fish stimulated his taste buds and aroused his hunger, so he took a bite without blowing.

Seeing Hoshinoshu eating big mouthfuls, Zilai also smiled in relief.

"What's your name? How old are you?"

"Hoshino Shu, four years old this year."

"Then I can call you Shu, you can call me Jiraiya, I am Konoha's ninja."

Hoshino nodded, and didn't care what Jiraiya said, he thought to himself: "Don't tell me what your name is, how many disciples do you have, how many times have you been hit by Tsunade's hammer, how many times have you been called Lao Se Ghost or something, I know."

The fire light shone on the faces of the old and the young, and Zilai also watched Hoshino Shu staring at the fire intently. He looked calm, and poked a wooden stick into the fire from time to time to relieve boredom.

Ordinary children would probably cry and scream their shit out of last night's horrific ordeal.

But Hoshino Shu didn't seem to take it seriously, with a look of "it's over and it's over, there's nothing to think about". You must know that when he participated in the war for the first time when he was young, his legs were a little weak from fright.

The result of this observation further confirmed Jiraiya's guess: "This child's mind is terribly mature."

Four years old is as good as someone else's teens, what kind of talent is this?
Jilai didn't feel gratified, but felt great pressure, because talents can be put to good use and become pillars of talent if they are used in the right way.

But if a genius goes astray, it will bring incalculable disaster to the world.

It's not that he has never seen such an example, and he has seen many.And it was these painful memories that made him more determined: "I must lead this child to the right path!"

Together with this thought, Jilai also suddenly changed his original thinking.

"I originally planned to bring him back to Konoha and hand him over to the third generation to take care of him, but now it seems that I have to let him stay by my side for a while."

"Boy, I ask you something, you must answer truthfully." Jiraiya looked at Hoshino Shu with a serious face.

Hoshino Shu was startled, thinking:

"Did he see something weird about me? Although it's obvious, a 17-year-old me can't pretend to be like a four-year-old."

Hoshino tree nodded: "Yes."

Jiraiya's face became more dignified, the atmosphere became more unnatural, and Hoshino felt his body tense up.

Many thoughts appeared in his head: "Could it be that he thinks I'm an old monster like Orochimaru who takes away other people's bodies? It's impossible..."

After a few seconds, Zilai finally spoke.

"What kind of woman do you like?"

"Fuck..." Hoshino Shu lost his balance and slid down.

He secretly complained in his heart: "You're the only one who asks this? The pervert has you."

Ji Lai also said innocently: "What's the matter? Isn't it easy to answer?"

"I'm just a child, and I have no idea about such grown-up matters." Hoshino Shu spread his hands and shook his head helplessly.

"Sister Yu, Lolita, I like them all." Hoshino Shu said in his heart.

"That's not necessarily true. When I was your age, I knew all kinds of women like the back of my hand." Zilai also smiled proudly.

"I'm not like you. I was a little pervert when I was a child, and I'm an old pervert when I grow up." Hoshino Shu said weakly.

"Little devil, you are so old-fashioned in speaking." Zilai also laughed.He felt that he was not teasing children, but chatting with adults.

Although Hoshino Shu feels that he is not serious, he actually asks him such a question. Can he just say that he likes f-masks?
But after joking like this, he and Zilai became a little more familiar with each other, and became less unfamiliar.

As night fell, drowsiness came, and with the light of the bonfire, the two fell asleep one after another.

Hoshino Shu felt his body rise and fall, opened his eyes, and found himself lying on a bush of thick white hair.

It was already dawn, and Zilai carried him on his back and drove on the road. The dirt road was lined with grass and woods, and the breeze was blowing gently.

"It's a bit comfortable." Hoshino Shu reached out and rubbed his thick white hair, which felt like a pillow.

Now his leg is injured and bandaged, and he can't walk. It's very comfortable to be carried on his back. He even wants to pretend to be sick for a few days after the leg injury is healed, and stop walking if he can walk by himself.

"Shu, you're awake." Jiraiya turned his head and glanced at Hoshino Shu.

"Well, the leg still hurts." Hoshino Shu emphasized his leg injury so that he could continue to be carried on his back with peace of mind.

"Does your leg still hurt? There's no way...then you have to get down and walk by yourself."

"Hey...huh? Do your two sentences mean the same thing?" Hoshino Shu was startled.

"Hahaha! I'm teasing you." Jilai also stopped, shaking his body, and stabilized the back of Hoshino tree that had slipped a bit.

"Hmph..." Hoshino Shu curled his lips. Although his body was a child, he didn't like being teased in his heart.

Jiraiya also laughed loudly, and continued: "You know I'm a very powerful ninja."

"Well, I saw you punched that traitor's brains almost burst out."

"It's not something to brag about, but, Tree, do you want to be like that? Become a mighty ninja."

Hoshino Shu blurted out: "Of course."

"Why?" Jiraiya's voice was soft and deep.

"Ah, at that time, I could only stick a small knife into the enemy's palm to buy myself a little time to escape. But if I was very powerful, under my protection, I might be able to protect the villagers from harm. My strength The stronger you are, the fewer people get hurt."

This is what Hoshino Shu said in his heart. In the past, the villagers took good care of him as a child. Although it is not long after time travel, he still has some affection for the simple villagers.

Jiraiya turned his back to Hoshino, and Hoshino couldn't see the smile on Jiraiya's face at this moment.

"Very good." Jiraiya didn't make too many comments.

"Tree, do you like toads?"
