Naruto Arrows

Some people say that a truly good cook is one who can make a big pot of rice delicious.

Neji now agreed with this statement.

Because Gu Jie's big pot rice was really delicious, so much so that he hoped to hire Gu Jie to cook for him in the future.

And several other people sitting in the "temporary camp" that Yamato had just created using the Wood Release Ninjutsu, eating a big pot of rice, probably had similar thoughts to Neji's.

"It's been a long time since I've eaten the food you cooked, Gu Jie. Oh, I really miss the taste."

After finishing another bowl, Yamanaka Haiichi leaned against the wooden wall contentedly and extended his thumb to Kosuke.

"Fortunately, that guy from Dingzuo is not here, otherwise, this pot might not be enough for that guy to eat alone."

After praising Gu Jie, he didn't forget to tease his old gluttonous friend.

"As long as you like it."

Gu Jie, who had small eyes, narrowed his eyes to slits when he heard the compliments one after another, and responded with a smile.

Among the people who were eating and drinking and constantly praising, Tanaka was silent and seemed to have no appetite. Although he was holding the bowl, he could not open his mouth for half a minute or even a minute. He looked at It seems a little out of place.

"Tanaka, what's wrong with you? Doesn't the food today suit your taste?"

As a fellow ANBU and the captain of his unit, Yamato finally couldn't help his curiosity and asked when he was rushing to help Kosuke clean up the pot.

"No, the food is delicious."

Tanaka shook his head, and at the same time glanced around cautiously.

"It's just that I'm not in the mood to taste delicious food."

"Is it because of Hinata Neji?"?

Yamato finally recovered from the satisfaction of the delicious food and thought about this mission and the instructions given to them by the Sandaime Hokage before setting off.

"What? Is his strength really so powerful that even you are shocked?"

He couldn't help but frown when he thought of how Tanaka seemed to have been out of shape since he came back from hunting.

As the first ANBU member to pay attention to Neji's practice of archery, the ANBU members, especially those who had seen Neji practice, were dismissive of this outdated weapon that had long been eliminated by ninjutsu. Scoffing.

The most rational thing is to think that it can have a good effect on genin, but it will be completely vulnerable to chunin and ninjutsu.

"Captain Tenzo, if it were you, would you be able to react to an undetected shuriken attack from 70 meters away?"

Tanaka did not answer Yamato's question, but asked him.

"Shuriken?"

Yamato was a little puzzled.

"What if this shuriken still bypasses the obstacle and suddenly appears in a blind spot? Captain Tenzo, can you react and dodge or block it?"

Like a question machine, Tanaka ignored Yamato's doubts and asked again.

"You mean, Hyuga Neji can use a bow and arrow to bypass obstacles and launch a sneak attack from 70 meters away?!"

However, Yamato finally understood what he meant, frowned slightly, and asked in a low voice.

Tanaka finally stopped asking and nodded, but couldn't help but murmur softly with a hint of panic on his face.

"And besides the sound of the bow string snapping, there was almost no sound."

As he spoke, he did not forget to point to the bird feathers that had not yet been disposed of.

"The bird was shot through the neck and nailed to the tree trunk without realizing it."

As he said this, he might have thought of himself from the bird association, and couldn't help but touch his neck.

"I thought about it carefully. If I hadn't noticed his approach in advance, and I was unprepared, I wouldn't have been able to dodge this arrow."

He looked a little depressed.

"Is this the heritage of the Hyuga clan? Even a child no more than eight years old can pose a mortal threat to me, a chuunin who has experienced countless battles, with weapons that have long been outdated."

"No wonder the Sandaime-sama specifically told us before we set off to closely observe this child's every move along the way."

After hearing this, Yamato was finally able to understand Sarutobi Hiruzen's order.

"Tanaka, cheer up, don't forget that the Hyuga clan is also the ninja of Konoha. What we should really worry about is not you, but our enemies."

And he is different from Tanaka. He has been undergoing the first-generation target cell implantation experiment in Orochimaru's experimental base since he was a child. He comes from a dark background, but he has always yearned for the light. Naturally, he does not view Ningji's unexpected shooting skills from the same angle. same.

"I know that."

Tanaka nodded, with a bitter smile on his face.

"I'm just a little bit unwilling."

. . .

"Uncle Guang, is there a scroll in the Mandian Hall that can seal the ninja tools?"

While Tanaka and Yamato were talking, in the wooden house, Neji was asking Aguang about the seal scroll.

"Naturally there is."

As one of the shareholders of Mandiantang, Aguang's eyes immediately lit up when he smelled the scent of money and ink.

"Master Neji, do you want to buy a seal scroll to store the bow and arrows in your hand?"

"Yes."

With this thought in his mind, Neji nodded.

"Although bows and arrows are very good, they are too bulky. Not only are they cumbersome when traveling on weekdays, but they are also easy to get scratched everywhere. If you can use a scroll to seal them and store them, it will undoubtedly greatly reduce the burden. Moreover, compared to The real trouble with the bow is the arrows. A bow without arrows is not as useful as a shuriken, but the arrows don't look big and weigh little. They can add up to a lot. A quiver contains twenty arrows. It’s quite a burden. And even so, when the time comes to go on a mission, these twenty arrows probably won’t be enough. What can I do then?”

Neji said, spreading his hands with a look of helplessness on his face.

"I can't carry a quiver full of quivers every time, right?"

"Hahaha, that's true, that's true."

As if thinking of Ningji's small body being buried under the quiver, Aguang couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Well, after Master Ningci returns to Konoha, you might as well go to Mandiantang to find me. Then you can make your request in detail, and I can find a suitable seal scroll for you."

"Uncle Guang, based on your experience, how much does a sealing scroll cost?"

However, Neji did not thank him immediately. Instead, like a cash-strapped customer, he timidly asked for the price.

Aguang calls him "young master", but he doesn't dare to really think of himself as a young master.

He didn't have many coins in his pocket.

"Different seal scrolls have different prices. Expensive scrolls like those on Jiraiya-sama can cost hundreds of millions, or even more."

"On, hundreds of millions?"

Neji almost bit his tongue when he heard this unit.

"Where's the cheapest one?"

"Well, if I just want to seal the bow and quiver in your hands, Master Neji, less than 100 million should be enough. If you want to seal some more quivers, well, 500 million should be about the same."

"Thirty-five million..."

Neji was completely speechless, and at the same time, he finally understood why Tiantian was called a rich woman.

With tens of millions of scrolls, you can seal a lot of shurikens and ordinary weapons. If you are not rich, who will be rich?
