Variety Martin from Hokage

Chapter 15;
Naruto, wearing goggles, landed by the campfire with a pillar-like scroll on his back.

As soon as he landed, before he could speak, a strong fragrance filled his nostrils.

"What's this smell? It smells so good!" Following the smell, he immediately looked at the iron pot that was smoking on the bonfire.

"It's a picnic today. I've prepared all the kitchen utensils and ingredients. Did you bring the mat?" Martin glanced at the scroll behind Naruto, and immediately knew it was a sealed scroll.

"Ah? This..." Naruto was at a loss when he heard Martin's question.Because Mr. Mizuki told him that he could become a ninja, he has been busy with the task of stealing the sealed book.

And the things I agreed to bring for the picnic were forgotten for a while.

"Ahaha, sorry, I forgot." He scratched his head embarrassedly.But he quickly thought about the scroll behind him, his face immediately became excited, and he proudly placed the scroll in front of him.

"But this time I brought a surprise, I will be a ninja like you in the future."

"Hey, this is it, let's see what kind of ninjutsu is in it!"

"As long as I learn the above ninjutsu, I will be able to graduate successfully." Naruto said, and excitedly opened the scroll on the ground.

"Wait for me." Martin took out a camera at some point, "Let me make a note here too."

And the third generation who watched this scene through the crystal ball in the Hokage building suddenly twitched his eyes. No matter how you look at it, this guy seems to be preparing in advance.

"Does the other party have the ability to predict the future?...It's really tricky." He was smoking a cigarette, his face hidden in the shadow of the moonlight.

Although Martin's daily transformation is not stable, most of the time he is just an ordinary chicken or duck.But again, the upper limit is unimaginable.Anything is possible.

…………

On the other side, after Naruto arrived with the scroll, Mizuki in the dark did not act, but was waiting for something.

Soon, there were scattered voices in the village, and afterimages ran across the streets and roofs under the moonlight.

The news that the sealed book was stolen by Naruto has spread.

…………

"Are you hungry?" Martin took a picture of the ninjutsu on the scroll and put it away.At this time, the food cooked on the campfire is almost ready.

"Of course, what you made smells really good." Hearing the food, Naruto's eyes lit up immediately. From the very beginning, he turned his head to look at the campfire, anxiously waiting for Martin to speak.

"Baozi, Jin Jin smiled."

This is Chef Xie's signature pasta, a steamed bun that can make a magical laugh.

"Can it really shine?" Naruto obviously remembered what Martin said in the school playground.

"Of course, but there is no rush."

As Martin spoke, he looked deep into the dense forest.

"what happened?"

"Iruka-sensei is here."

"Ms. Iruka? Where is it? Where is it?" Naruto looked around in confusion, but only saw darkness.

But soon, a black shadow quickly passed through the dense forest and landed in front of the two of them.

"Hey, Naruto!" Panting Iruka bent over and looked at Naruto angrily.Then he looked at Martin again, "Why are you with Naruto?"

"I made an appointment with him for a picnic." Martin pointed to the bonfire next to him without too much explanation.

Naruto laughed excitedly when he saw Iruka-sensei appearing.

"Hahaha, Iruka-sensei, I have already learned a ninjutsu."

"That, that, as long as I learn all the ninjutsu in this scroll, I can definitely graduate!"

Hearing Naruto's words, Iruka was startled.

"Huh? Who told you that?"

"Of course it's Mr. Mizuki. He told me the location of the scroll."

"Mizuki!" Iruka's eyes widened, and he finally knew who was behind all this.

"Naruto, Martin, you..." He looked at the two students in front of him, wanting to get them out of here as soon as possible, but before he finished speaking, a sharp piercing sound suddenly sounded in the silent dense forest.

"Shhhhhh!"

Hearing the sound, Iruka subconsciously stretched out his hand and pushed Naruto, but he missed the best time to dodge, so he could only avoid the vital points as much as possible.

"Boom, boom, boom!" The dense kunai passed through Iruka's figure, hitting the wooden house behind and making muffled noises.

Under his best evasion, only a kunai was stabbed in his leg.

"According to the time, it should have spread in the village that Naruto stole the scroll."

"But I didn't expect you to come here so quickly." Under the cold moonlight, Mizuki, who was carrying a big windmill, came out from behind a tree trunk with a gloomy expression.

"Mizuki! Why did you do this?" Iruka twitched and pulled out the Kunai from his legs, and asked loudly.

"Hmph, of course it's to return to Oshemaru-sama." Mizuki snorted coldly, and then looked at Naruto with dark eyes.

"Naruto! Hand over the scroll!"

At this time, Naruto looked at Mizuki, then at the injured Iruka, with a blank expression on his face, "That, that... What's going on here?"

"Da!" Iruka threw the bloody Kunai aside, staring at Mizuki tightly.

"Naruto, you can't hand over the scroll even if you die. It is a dangerous item that has been sealed because it records taboo ninjutsu."

"Mizuki used you to get it!"

"Martin, take Naruto and escape first! I'll stop him!"

After roughly explaining the situation clearly, he immediately waved his hand to let Naruto and the two of them run first.

Hearing the explanation, Naruto immediately looked at Mizuki angrily.

"Naruto, Iruka-sensei is just afraid that you will get that scroll." Mizuki was not in a hurry.

"As a reward for bringing me the scroll, let me tell you what happened 12 years ago."

"Bastard, shut up!!" Hearing what the other party was about to say, Iruka panicked.

But Mizuki didn't care about his threat, but continued to speak under Naruto's questioning gaze.

"After that incident, the village made a certain rule..."

…………

"Ah, I was ignored." Looking at the scene of their confrontation, Martin scratched his face in embarrassment, and then took a few steps forward.

"Naruto, do you want to have a picnic?"

Hearing the familiar gentle voice behind him, Naruto, who was on the verge of explosion under the guidance of Mizuki's words, immediately came back to his senses.

He turned his head with the last trace of hope, thinking of the sunflowers shrouded in the sunset that day, and his heart that was about to sink into darkness was suddenly illuminated by a beam of warm light at this moment.
