Konoha's Immortal Disciple

Chapter 7 On the way back to Konoha

Hoshino Shu firmly imprinted the seal in his heart, and he couldn't help but do it after he finished speaking.

Chakra gathered in his hand, and while the blood was still wet, he drew another bloodstain on his hand, completing five seals in a slightly unfamiliar way.

"Psychic art!" Hoshino Shu called out the name of the art with great momentum.

But the palm-sized smoke that randomly came from where he performed the spell has already told him how big the gap between reality and ideal is.

Before the smoke cleared, Hoshino Shu's face froze, and then a small black tadpole appeared in front of his eyes.

Looking at the little tadpole who didn't understand why he suddenly appeared on the land from the water, Hoshino Shu couldn't help being silent.

"At least, judging by the frequency and amplitude of the shaking, it is very vigorous, and it should be a rare and strong tadpole." Hoshino Shu comforted himself by talking to himself.

"Why is it a little tadpole? Look, my toad is so big." Jilai also quietly leaned into Hoshinoshu's ear, and said in a slightly teasing and mean tone.

"It's so annoying!" Hoshino Shu was a little bit shocked, silently picked up the tadpole, and released it into the pond.

"Let's play happily in the pond, don't come here again next time." Hoshino Shu whispered, not sure if the tadpoles could understand.

"Sure enough, I'm not the protagonist, I don't have any cheats, I don't have a tailed beast in my stomach, and my father is not Hokage." Hoshino Shu thought helplessly, and followed Zilai on the road again.

Hoshino's leg injury healed very quickly. For some reason, after coming to the world of Hokage, he felt that a big injury was a small injury, and a small injury was not an injury. He thought it might be because of Chakra.

However, what he didn't expect was that the nightmare would start after he recovered from his injury. In order to quickly strengthen Hoshino Shu's frail body within a limited time, Jiraiya also formulated a series of devil-style physical training for him.

In the morning, he climbed mountains with small sandbags on his legs to exercise his leg strength, and in the afternoon he raised rocks to exercise his arm strength. Only then did Hoshino Shu realize that 100 push-ups was really not a big deal.

The hot sun shone on Hoshinoshu's young and resolute back. He took off his shirt and slowly climbed towards the top of the mountain step by step. When he reached the top of the mountain, he would immediately go down again for the next climb.

Sweat flowed down from Hoshino Shu's body, leaving it on his way.

He was working very hard, his whole body was sending signals to ask for rest, and his legs were as uncomfortable as being filled with lead, but the thoughts in his mind supported him to persevere.

A very simple idea, he wants to be very powerful, wants to get in touch with the wider world, wants to talk to the protagonists in this world, instead of standing at the bottom of the mountain looking up and envious, it is better to forge ahead.

"Bang!" Hoshino Shu, who had completed all the training tasks today, used his last strength to throw away the big rock in his hand, and then fell to the ground gasping for breath.

Today, this is the third month he has been with Jiraiya. During the past three months, he has tried his best every day, and he has never had a day off.

The process was arduous, but the result was also gratifying. He could clearly feel that his physical fitness had improved dramatically, and due to the improvement in his physical condition, the amount of chakra he could refine was steadily increasing.

Ji Lai also walked over with a smile, looking at Hoshino Shu's tired and paralyzed appearance, he couldn't help but think back to the days when he himself practiced hard.

"Every generation has a story of a generation... Yo! Boy." Jiraiya called Hoshino Shu.

"I know there is a very good ramen restaurant nearby, let's try it together."

"Ah...it feels like my body has been hollowed out." After training, Hoshino Shu was so tired that he wanted to vomit, looking at a large bowl of steaming and fragrant ramen in front of him, but he had no appetite at all.

"What, don't you have an appetite? Try it first. I found out about this restaurant. People nearby say it's delicious." Zilai also broke his chopsticks.

Hoshino Shu was indeed hungry, but he almost didn't even have the strength to pick up the chopsticks. When he picked up the chopsticks with his right hand, he trembled, so he had to hold them with his left hand so that the chopsticks would not fall.

With an attitude of giving it a try, he reluctantly picked up a few noodles and slurped them in.

"Huh?" A flash of lightning flashed in Hoshino Shu's mind. "This taste... the soup is delicious, the noodles are full of strength, and the ingredients are rich and exquisite. It can be summed up in two words, delicious!"

Hoshino Shu felt that all the vitality of his body had come back, and he picked up the bowl and ate it in big mouthfuls. When he couldn't lift a single noodle in the whole bowl, he drank all the soup with still unsatisfied desire.

"Boss, another big bowl." Ji Lai also said to the boss.

"Haha, what a child who can eat. I just had dinner, and seeing this kid eating, I feel hungry." The boss showed a simple and honest smile, and put a large handful of noodles into the pot.

"Wow, it's so cool!" Hoshino Shu wiped out the ramen like a storm. After a while, three big bowls were already tired in front of him. He touched his stomach that was supported by food contentedly, and gave a loud slap Burp.

"Hmph, brat, it's really edible." Zilai also took out his wallet to pay the bill, and paid for the eight bowls.

"Ah, I feel sleepy after eating..." Hoshino Shu couldn't take it anymore. For three months, he lived a life of resting after training and continuing to train after rest. On the face of it, he was just a kid.

He lay down on the table, then let out a small snoring, and fell asleep.

"Let's go!" Jiraiya carried Hoshino Tree on his back.

Trapped in Ziraiya's thick hair like a lion, Hoshino Shu felt his face a little itchy, subconsciously parted his hair in his sleep, so that he could sleep in the most comfortable state.

Hoshino Shu didn't know how long he had slept. When he gradually became conscious, he felt his body jolting, and it was obvious that Zilai had carried him on his back again, but he continued to sleep until he felt completely full.

"Boy, wake up, wake up, don't sleep, the snake is crawling on you." Jiraiya shrugged and woke up Hoshino Shu.

"Then let it take a bite, and I'll go back to sleep after the bite..." Hoshino Shu was still in a half-dream and half-awake state, and he replied completely by his own instinct.

"Hey, if you go back to sleep, I won't teach you new ninjutsu today." Jiraiya deliberately kept his voice down.

"Haha!" Hoshino Shu immediately jumped off Jiraiya's back, and took advantage of the opportunity to do a backflip, showing that he was very energetic.

"What ninjutsu, Toad Immortal Jiraiya-sama, I'm ready."

Jiraiya turned around and continued walking, as if he hadn't said anything, he said:

"You were sleeping just now, it must be the content of your dream, I never said to teach you any new ninjutsu."

"Ah? I heard it clearly. As one of Konoha Sannin, Toad Immortal, how could you even lie to a child!" Hoshino Shu ran to Jiraiya and yelled.

"Hey, stop arguing, we're almost there." Zilai also said suddenly.

Hoshino Shu was stunned, and asked suspiciously, "Where are you going?"

"Konoha."

Only then did Hoshino Shu look forward.

Hokage Rock from the first to fourth Hokage, clusters of dense houses, and ninjas wearing Konoha forehead guards patrolling at the entrance of the village. Looking at this familiar scene, Hoshino Shu couldn't help but stop and froze in place, his head froze. Blank.

A gust of wind blew up, rustling in his ears, and a green leaf fluttered in front of his eyes, covering his sight.

He took down the leaf and said in a daze: "Konoha..."
