Konoha: The young son-in-law of the Hyuga family

As the saying goes, a scholar can know the affairs of the world without going out.

Although Ryosuke is not a scholar, he is definitely not bad.

The current situation in the ninja world can be said to be extremely stable.

Because the alliance was just formed, the commercial allies headed by the Fire Nation had just tasted the sweetness, so they did not loosen under the influence of Sarutobi Hiruzen's death, and enjoyed their own piece of cake very comfortably. The larger ambitions derived from it have not yet appeared.

Outside the alliance, because Yanyin Village and Yunyin Village had just been defeated in a battle, the country behind them compensated a lot of supplies, population, land, and even the fourth generation of Raikage of Yunyin died because of this, so the two The country probably has no way to stir up troubles for a long time.

Of the remaining five major countries, there is only one country of water that has not participated in the recent disputes in the ninja world.

This country has not had any news from the ninja world since a long time ago, and it is completely in a closed state.

In fact, Ryosuke is very clear that their country is currently in a period of civil strife under Uchiha Obito's revenge.

Until the fifth generation Mizukage Terumimei came to power, it was difficult for the country to stabilize.

So Ryosuke explained to Hinata Nichizu and Hinata that the current situation of Akatsuki's organization is under his grasp and there is absolutely no mistake.

Even, apart from the Akatsuki organization, it is no problem to say that the situation in the entire ninja world is under his control.

After all, at the beginning, Ryosuke's judgment was calculated based on his own progress rate during penance.

But in fact, because with the evolution of things, he has experienced the relationship between large and small battlefields. Although he did not enter the arena in person, he also carried out several large-scale battles with the hands of others, so the strength of the battle has improved. The speed is much faster than that of penance.

The situation is in his hands, and his strength is far stronger than planned.

Under such circumstances, Ryosuke doesn't seem to need to hide himself so cautiously anymore.

But if there is no equal match, or an opponent who can bring changes to his life rhythm, there is no need for him to take the initiative to show off in front of others.

As for his explanation, both Hinata Hizuru and Hinata are convinced.

Although Ryosuke didn't reveal too much, and the two of them didn't ask, neither of them had any doubts about his arrangement.

No matter in terms of ability or persuasion, Ryosuke has given them too many answers in previous arrangements.

After breakfast, the three of them all left home due to their own affairs.

In this huge courtyard, Ryosuke is the only master left.

Generally speaking, at this time in the morning, he would leisurely look at the spell scrolls at home, and would go to the practice field for daily practice exercises in the afternoon to ensure that the amount of knowledge and ability would be improved equally. Other abilities can be developed in a flash of inspiration.

But today is different, he has a premonition that there will be distinguished guests coming to visit in the next few days.

"Master Liang Jie, someone in the clan sent a message that a big shot in the village is visiting, and they are waiting at the gate of the clan."

Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive.

Liang Jie had just opened a few scrolls, and hadn't entered the state of study yet, when he heard the report from the butler A Liang.

Putting down the scroll casually, he got up and left the house to the door.

Under the sun, a Hyuga clansman was waiting nervously at the door.

This person looked familiar, and seemed to be one of the few people in the clan who knew his true strength.

"Master Ryosuke, Master Jiraiya is here to visit and wants to meet you."

Sure enough, he is a clansman who knows his true strength.

Those who don't know Ryosuke's strength will only call Ryosuke a young master, not an adult, after all, this is a more respectful title.

Who would be in awe of a son-in-law who didn't show any outstanding qualities?

"Thank you for telling me, then I'll go and have a look."

Ryosuke nodded with a smile, thanking him for conveying.

He turned around and told the butler A Liang that he was ready for refreshments, and he hurried towards the gate of the clan.

And standing behind him, the person who notified him left happily as if he had received some kind of honor.

The buildings on both sides were quickly thrown back. Although the Hyuga Clan is not small, like a village in a village, Ryosuke's speed is very fast. If he lets go, he has already arrived at the gate of the Clan in less than a minute. .

From a distance, he saw a middle-aged man with pale hair and an old face under the sun, chatting up a passing Hyuga clansman with a smile on his face.

"Senior Jiraiya."

It was the first time we met, but Ryosuke's performance was no stranger, he smiled and walked forward, "Welcome to visit our Hyuga Clan."

"Yo... Ryosuke boy."

It was also the first time we met, but Zilai also said his name very accurately.

Beside him, several Hyuga clansmen said their farewell tactfully.

However, compared to Ryosuke, Jilai also seems to pay more attention to the women who are leaving. Seeing that they are leaving, he hurriedly said: "Miss, if you think of any suitable characters to add to my creation, you can do it at any time." contact me."

"It sounds like Master Jiraiya gets along well with people in our clan."

Seeing him waving goodbye to them with a smile, Ryosuke asked gently: "Is there any seedling you value, do you want to accept him as an apprentice?"

He was stunned for a while, and Zilai obviously didn't expect Ryosuke to ask such a question, and turned his head with a half-smile, "I'm all proud of my skills on this paper and pen, so it's not appropriate to teach ninjas."

Euphemistically bringing up this topic, he looked Liangjie up and down, "He is a handsome young man, no wonder he is often at the old man's place and hears him mention you."

The third generation...

Ryosuke smiled calmly, "It is my honor to get the attention of three generations of adults."

He never thought that he could hide Sarutobi from concealing his strength.

When Naruto and Sasuke fought, Sarutobi Hiruzen had already pointed this out, but he didn't know the specific strength of Ryosuke, and he never fortified Hinata because of this, or tried to test Ryosuke again. I didn't care.

But maybe...

He has been secretly watching himself, from some other channels.

Ryosuke's eyes remained calm, and there was no wave in his heart.

He had expected the treachery of some people in the clan, and there had been many such things over the years.

"But in fact, my coming here this time has nothing to do with the old man."

Taking a casual look around, Zilai also said with a smile, "Should we... just talk at the door?"

"Feel sorry."

Ryosuke came back to his senses and hurriedly led the way.

He moved out of the way, stretched out his arm to invite Zilaiye to enter the clan ground, "Senior Zilaiye, please."

And Jiraiya admired his mature style of handling things very much, and stepped into the Hyuga Clan at his invitation.

Entering the clan land, Ryosuke seems to have become a tour guide, introducing some landmark buildings in the clan along the way.

After leading the way to the home, he led the way into the living room.

In the living room, there were already hot tea and snacks prepared by the housekeeper A Liang.

Ryosuke was not ambiguous about the preparations that should be made in the way of hospitality.

"Actually, I came here this time mainly because of Naruto's relationship."

After taking his seat, he drank the precious tea in the teacup like a cow chewing a peony, and then took another bite of snacks, then Jiraiya turned his attention to Ryosuke, "I heard...the relationship between you and Naruto very good?"

He asked straightforwardly what his purpose was.

"Yes."

Without any hesitation or scruples about Naruto's identity, Ryosuke replied casually: "He is a very assertive person and a person who knows how to think. I like to make friends with such a person."

While talking, he made tea for Jiraiya again.

Ryosuke doesn't need to hide it anymore. He had socializing with Naruto back then. On the one hand, Naruto took the initiative to come over. On the other hand, Naruto's character and experience are worthy of his appreciation.

Of course, there is also a small part of the reason that he is a protagonist, a character who is defined as a person with monstrous luck in terms of metaphysics.

Some people don't need a reason to make friends, they just look at fate.

But when making friends, some people may pay more attention to each other's three views, or their conversation, or even their snobbish family background.

Ryosuke feels that he is the kind of mixed person, which requires not only fate, but also appropriate three views and conversation.

"Since you admit that Naruto is your friend, and Naruto is very happy to have you as his friend, then I won't talk nonsense."

Jiraiya patted the table with satisfaction, "As for me, you should know my identity. I am called one of the Konoha Sannin in the ninja world, but I personally prefer the name Toad Immortal."

"But these are not important. The most important thing is that I am a very powerful ninja. You should have no doubts about this, right?"

With that said, he put the question on Ryosuke.

And Ryosuke shook his head with a smile, "Of course not. Even my father appreciates the strength of senior Jiraiya."

Children's compliments are always more sincere, and they are more satisfied with themselves, "Since you know my strength, then I'll just say it straight, I need you to do me a favor now."

Facing Ryosuke's puzzled gaze, he coughed dryly, "Actually, besides being a powerful ninja, I'm also Naruto's master."

"Naruto's identity, there should not be many people in the village who don't know it? He is the child of the fourth Hokage, and I am the master of the fourth generation."

"As Naruto's master, I have the obligation and responsibility to teach him, but..."

He paused when he said this, and scratched his head unconsciously, "But because of some bad things, he doesn't want to recognize me as a teacher now."

"I want to say... Ryosuke, you are one of Naruto's few friends, can you help me persuade him, that is... let him recognize me as a teacher, and give me a chance to make up for it."

The voice of speaking was intermittent. To be honest, in front of a child, he was a middle-aged man in his 40s and almost 50 years old. He was a little embarrassed to say this, but he couldn't care less.

Last night, after Naruto faced himself so calmly, he understood that it would not be easy for this kid to forgive him.

Then, an intruder appeared in the village.

When Jilai also rushed to rescue him and Uchiha Sasuke from Uchiha Itachi, Naruto faced himself completely as a stranger, which has already explained all this.

But...he was unwilling to forgive himself, but he couldn't ignore him.

This matter was originally the wrong purpose of myself and the third generation. If I ignore it, this relationship will only become more and more rigid.

The continuation of a relationship requires two-way dedication, which is the same whether it is love or family or friendship.

"Is that so..."

Ryosuke looked at Jiraiya with some admiration.

For an elder to give in to a junior like this, he really cares about Naruto.

But unfortunately...

"I'm sorry, please forgive me for not being able to agree to your request."

Ryosuke shook his head and said regretfully, "I've already said that Naruto is a very independent person."

"If Senior Jiraiya wants to use my channel to shake his heart, it will be more difficult, and regardless of whether it succeeds or not, I am not willing to help."

"why?"

Jiraiya, who was still a little happy when he heard the previous sentence, was a little confused after Ryosuke shook his head, so, "As a friend of Naruto, don't you want me to guide him and make him a man like me? A strong ninja?"

He really couldn't think of a way, so he thought of easing the relationship through others.

What is even more sad is that Naruto has only had Hinata Ryosuke as a frequent friend in the village for so many years.

"Compared to becoming a powerful ninja, I hope he can have a trustworthy "family"."

Ryosuke has always maintained a calm attitude, "What's more, I personally think that Naruto can become a powerful ninja even without the guidance of his senior Jiraiya."

"He's always trying to find his own direction and make up for his shortcomings."

"Naruto's talent has always been very good. When will he become a unique ninja, but it's only a matter of time."

After a few words, he was speechless and even a little ashamed.

He admired Ryosuke's mature style at first, but suddenly regretted it.

It would be great if this child is not so mature and easy to fool.

It's all right now, he sees the problem so clearly, and considers it from Naruto's point of view, he can't refute it with a word.

The atmosphere fell silent, and neither of them spoke again.

Ryosuke drank cup after cup of tea, looking leisurely.

On the opposite side, the tea in front of Jiraiya slowly lost its steam over time.

"Let me change it to a hot cup for you."

Ryosuke stretched out his arms with a smile, picked up his teacup, and planned to pour out the cold tea and replace it with freshly brewed tea.

But Jiraiya raised his hand to stop him, "No need, the time is almost up, since you don't want to help, then I should leave too."

Saying that, he smiled and stood up.

But the smile was a bit bitter.

He didn't try to keep him too much, Ryosuke also stood up and saw him off.

From the main house all the way back to the gate of the clan land, neither of them spoke.

Ryosuke has nothing to say, and Zilai also has something on his mind.

It seems that he is very distressed about how to make Naruto forgive himself.

"Just send it here."

When he came to the gate of the clan, Jilai also stopped, and looked at Ryosuke next to him.

But after thinking about it for a while, he suddenly bowed down to thank Ryosuke, "Anyway, thank you for being with Naruto all these years. Without you, maybe his life would be even more gloomy."

Even a traitorous village.

He didn't say the last sentence, but from the Anbu records in black and white in the village recently, he could see how hopeless Naruto's previous life was.

If he had faced the rejection and malice of the entire village, he might have thought of fleeing a long time ago, and he would never have stayed in such a village for a second longer.

At the entrance of the Hyuga Clan, there was not a lot of people.

Facing the gazes of other people looking over, Ryosuke took a step away indiscriminately, avoiding his thanks, and quickly reached out to help him up, "Senior Ziraiya, you are so old and bow to me as a junior, really It kind of frustrates me."

"But there is one thing I can remind you, Naruto still cares about his parents."

"If it is the past of his parents, he will be happy to listen."

"Especially... He should be very willing to cooperate with your teachings regarding the strength of the fourth generation couple, as well as their previous practice and development of spells."

His words meant something, and Zilai, who had a somewhat bitter expression, was taken aback for a moment, then widened his eyes, and understood what Ryosuke meant.
