[Hokage] Secrets of the Fathers [Fourth Generation Center]

Anyway, you have to feed them to death, and you have to feed them when they are hungry and howling.Naruto Uzumaki carried Shishimaru, kicked Jiraiya again, picked up his wallet and went out to buy something.

Konoha is really just a small village compared to the capital or port, especially the big city like the capital port of the Water Country, and because it is an actual military fortress, it will inevitably become boring if you live there for a long time.Probably except for public properties and craftsmen's shops like Ichiraku Ramen, all the flower shops in Konoha are owned by the Yamanaka family, the drug store is owned by the Nara family, the butcher shop is owned by the Akimichi family, and the vegetable sellers are all Uchi. In the Bodhisattva land, things like building and decorating houses are monopolized by Hinata, and the wood grows in the forest of the Senju family, the cement bricks come from the kiln of the Sarutobi family, etc., etc., from all walks of life in food, clothing, housing, and transportation, and there are acquaintances coming and going. .So you can imagine what a pet shop is like.

On the outskirts of the block where the Inuzuka family resides, there are many storefronts lined up along the road. Some sell ordinary cats, dogs, rabbits, and goldfish, some sell expensive cats, dogs, rabbits, and lizards. Of course, there are also places that only accept ninjas.

"Hi, I want a lion cub growth meal." Naruto put the lion pill on the counter.

"There is no lion cub growth package."

"How about you give me all the preparations needed to raise a lion?"

The retired old genin who was looking after the store at the Inuzuka family put down the newspaper in his hand, picked up Shishimaru and pulled it, "This lion's teeth are not very good, and his IQ is not high. Get down, or I'll cook you."

Uzumaki Naruto was startled by the old genin's loud shout. Then he looked at Shishimaru on the counter, spinning around and biting his tail without any reaction.

The old genin turned around and glared at the ninja puppy on the side, "What is one plus two minus one?"

"Wang, Wang"

The old genin threw a small bone and said to Naruto, "Why don't you choose a large ninja dog to guard the house and go on missions, treat the enemy like the autumn wind sweeps away fallen leaves, and is also good at fighting naughty children."

Naruto, who had often battled wits and courage with Kakashi's seven dogs, knew how good the ninja dogs were.But if it was really pitiful to be hungry just looking at Shishimaru at the beginning, now Naruto's vanity has greatly expanded. There are many ninja dogs in Konoha, but the lion is only as big as this one. How many girls can he attract if he is led out handsomely? If you want to call the Konoha ninjas, there are more men, more women, less faces. The lion is the first competitive force. The lion is the second competitive force.

The old ninja knew what the child was thinking by looking at his eyes, "What a good boy."

"Foster." Naruto patted the bulging frog wallet and said, "Come on, come on, lion feed, hurry up and give me a month's supply."

The old ninja put on his glasses and put on the sleeves, went into the cold storage of the container and rummaged through the stuffing. It took him a long time to push the cart out and said, "Your patronage, 5000 taels."

"" Naruto looked at the transfer boxes piled higher than a person, and the hand that opened his wallet trembled. A bowl of luxurious Ichiraku ramen is 80 taels without discount, and it only costs 18 taels to eat fried noodles in the cafeteria, but every ninja has a daily food subsidy. The financial support is 50 taels, and the minor genin also has a separate nutrition fee of 30 taels. Just eating in the cafeteria is basically the same as eating for free, and then there are 30 days in a month, thirty times eighty equals two thousand four, "just raise a lion" , why is it more expensive than raising two ninjas?"

"Lions need a lot of meat to stay nourished."

"Ninjas eat less every day." Naruto gritted his teeth, "I'm not a rich young man who doesn't know about the hardships of people's livelihood. An ordinary farmer's family out there can eat ten taels a day for a family of four."

"But lions don't eat millet leaves, only meat. A barbecue in Konoha costs 200 per person." The old genin smiled kindly, "right? When he grows up, he can eat a cow in one meal, lion."

"Ouch~owooow." Shishimaru happily picked up the lamb chops and gnawed on them with spit.

Naruto picked up Shishimaru and exited the store in two steps.Raising a cat is indeed a way to show off your wealth, and sucking a cat is a way to earn money. If you want to raise a big cat that will grow to be many times bigger than a cat in the future, the basic salary of a genin without a fixed position is 1800, and he will be arrested by the superiors and put on guard duty to dig out sewers. There is no money in terms of obligations, and the mission fee does not need to be paid in proportion like a chuunin and jounin, but the income from pulling weeds and raising children is only 50 taels to 1000 taels, and a 1000 tael mission is as rare as a C-level and B-level mission.The most important thing is that Sakura Sasuke is still halfway there, and he can't collect any of the border mission fees.Anyway, he doesn’t have enough cash in his wallet.

"Obviously I have grown up, I have obviously started to make money, but why do I feel more and more poor and poor?" Naruto Uzumaki said with a knife and wanted to shed tears.This guy, as long as he had a cat as a child and remembered to feed it and shovel its poop, he would be a good boy. As for where the cat food and cat litter came from, it was just like the milk in the refrigerator. After drinking it at night, it would still be full in the morning.

"However." Naruto touched his father's salary card in the folder of his wallet, and then poked Shishimaru, "As a gift to the Hokage, there seems to be nothing wrong with letting the Hokage pay for it. Yoxi, Kaka You can eat so well and haven’t paid for food for the family, so my father should be able to support you, right Shishiwan.”

"Ouch~" Shishimaru, who was forcibly separated from the lamb chops, rubbed anxiously.

Aaaaaaaao Naruto's face was filled with blood from being cute, and he entered the store again with Shishimaru in his arms, "I also want the largest cat litter box, cat litter, cat nest, a cat rope, and the cat litter will also be delivered to Hatake Lao in January. Zhai, if anyone doesn’t let you in, pile up at the door.”

"Please rest assured, Master Naruto, Kakashi-sama's ninja dog feed has always been sent by my family." The old ninja wrote the invoice, packed it, and then quickly stretched out his hand, "Your patronage, a total of 8080 taels."

"Ahem." Naruto comforted himself silently. His father's people are his, and his father's money is of course his. Everything about his father is his, everything, "swipe the card"

"Di."

At the same time, the Hokage Tower, small conference room

"Beep beep, beep beep."

"Whose communicator is turned off." A series of beeps with echoes interrupted Minato's thoughts.This made him very unhappy. Normally, he would forget about it. Today, he just wanted to get things sorted and arranged quickly, and then go home early.

However, "Beep beep, beep beep."

Minato closed his eyes. The impromptu meeting was indeed just a few high-level people at the beginning, but things were discussed and discussed. Once the details were discussed, people had to be called in. After all, the people at the bottom were the ones really doing the work.But the more subordinate you are, the less likely you are to force someone to turn off their communicator. No one is safe. If something urgent happens at a high-level executive's house, ANBU can come in and deliver a small message. It's a pity that ordinary jounin and chuunin don't have a communicator for both red and white matters. More often than not, "If it keeps ringing, go out and pick it up."

As a result, my head was drooping in pieces, and it was still "beep-beep-beep".

Minato became angry all of a sudden, but when he thought it would be a waste of time to get angry, he looked at his watch again and said, "Forget it, let's finish the meeting for dinner. Let's continue in the afternoon."

As soon as he finished speaking, almost everyone in the room ran away, leaving only Nara Shikaku, Hinata Hinashi, Aburame Shimi, Akimichi Dingza, Shiranui Genma, and Kakashi who were dragged down by their seats and continued to listen. beep beep”.

Minato was really surprised, "Who picked up the communicator? Could it be that I was hallucinating?"

"Yeah." Nara Shikaku opened his mouth and shut up. No one answered after the silence. As usual, it was him who got up to adjust the atmosphere, but earlier he had not said anything right several times in a row and Minato was not welcome to see him. Now he is still scared.

"If you have something to say, just say it." Minato threw the pen in his hand on the table, "Stop hesitating here with me."

"Ah." Lujiu pulled out his chair and took half a step back, "My wife is waiting for me to come home for dinner."

Hinata Hinata then stood up and bowed, "Yondaime, there may be something going on at home."

Aburame Zhi slightly covered her mouth and ran out, "Hey, if you slip away, I will slip away too."

Ding Zuo scratched his head, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh, "Well Minato, I'll get you lunch. I'll be back soon."

There are only three people in the conference room.

"Beep beep".

Minato, Genma, and Kakashi looked at each other.

Genjian coughed lightly, "Actually, it's very common to look for glasses with glasses and look for keys with keys."

Minato squeezed out one word from between his teeth, "Get out."

Xuanjian bent his waist at 90 degrees and climbed out using his hands and feet.

Kakashi looked at Genma's fart, kicked his butt, and patted the teacher's shoulder seriously, "Really, it's better than farting for the microphone to pick up, or picking your nose and having your photo taken."

"You, too, get out." Minato grabbed Kakashi with his backhand and threw him out.

"Ah~" Kakashi really flew out of the window, looking like a shooting star from a distance.

Minato clapped his hands, took out the beeping Thunder God communicator from his trouser pocket, turned off the sound, lit up the screen, and saw a string of green codes scrolling in a loop, "Your salary card was spent in Konoha today at 8080 Two, if you have any objections, please call.”

Well, call. As for where to call, he hasn't decided yet. After all, Feilei Shenxong is only equipped with high-level personnel, and he is the only one who connects the salary card to the communicator.Hey, speaking of salary card, has it been stolen? No, no, no, this is Konoha, Naruto came back with Kakashi this morning, ah, so his son has already woken up, yes Well, it's already noon, and I don't know what Naruto just bought. Maybe he's treating his friends to dinner. If Ding Zao's kid is here, 8000 taels is normal, but such a arrogant treat wouldn't come from someone bringing a beautiful lady. Little sister, go ahead. What should I do? Qinai, your dear husband, am I going to be a grandfather at such a young age?

"Hey, you big-headed devil." Minato closed the conference room door with a bang and cursed in a low voice as he walked to the office, "Namikaze Minato, don't you think today is embarrassing enough? No, you don't."

"I know you have to make trouble with yourself." In the Hokage's office, Ding opened Minato's chair, opened his lunch box, and placed his chopsticks. "It's a good thing to be strict with oneself, but God's thunder often kills the wrong person. And in the conference room, it's up to you. When you speak from a different position, people in every corner can hear you clearly, which means that your voice you hear comes from all directions. In addition, we have been meeting for peace of mind all morning, and everyone understands."

"But I don't understand." Minato washed his hands and dried them, "Since you know it's my communicator that's ringing, you can give me some hints. Why am I left there by myself, cursing and throwing down my pen? It's fun to watch my jokes. What?"

so fun.Ding Zuo bit his lower lip and laughed, "Okay, okay, don't laugh. It's your birthday today, happy birthday."

"Who knows if I was born today or not." Minato chewed and boiled everything, feeling that it was really terrible to be 40 years old. In the same conference room, when he just took office as Hokage, he could hear who was causing trouble when the paper fell on the floor. The same disease In the past few years, even with a little salt, he could tell that his hearing and taste had not deteriorated, but they were indeed no longer sensitive.

"Hey, don't be so teasing." Seeing that Minato was still unhappy, Dinzu stretched out his hand and rubbed his bitter brow away, "You've really lost your temper recently."

"" Minato sniffed as he smelled the pickled pig's feet, grilled steak and braised chicken wings in Dingza's lunch box.

"Be patient, wait until your stomach is better, I will make you whatever you want to eat." Ding Zao was really worried about Minato's condition, "You have to be happy on your birthday, don't you look forward to Naruto Kaka in the evening? Don’t deny the gifts they give you, the expectation is the expectation.”

"I'm curious about what you gave me" Minato smiled.

"Of course it's food." Dingzuo slapped Minato on the back, "Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and eat. After you finish eating, sign today's official documents and go home. Whatever is not finished at the meeting, leave it to the people below. If you need it that year The reason you stare so closely is because you have really promoted too many children, but now the children have grown up, and growing up requires constant mistakes, look at how capable the idiot Xuan Jian is now."

"But he is in a high position." Minato sprinkled pepper as usual, "Kakashi looked very capable when he was the ANBU, but due to an oversight, we lost Fugaku. Dingzu, there are more enemies than you think, right?" Wow."

Ding Zuo looked at the chicken wings in Minato's mouth and was extremely satisfied.

Minato slurped the fragrant sauce that made his taste buds explode. He raised his hand, closed his mouth, lowered his head, and nibbled carefully.As for what I just said, well, the Fourth Hokage allowed his subordinates to make mistakes.

But subordinates don't want to make mistakes.

Sarutobi's house, outside the gate, in the shadows.

Aburame Zhiwei was called here by her subordinates immediately after the meeting.But what's the use of him coming here? Jiraiya has his own room in Sarutobi's house, his own pajamas and toothbrush, and even a servant specially to serve him. What reason do you have for not letting him go home.Therefore, instead of guarding Jiraiya from knowing that his teacher was under house arrest by his disciple, it would be better to call for more manpower to prevent Jiraiya from directly breaking into the Hokage's office like last time.

But it seems

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't say much to Jiraiya, "Aren't you stationed at the border? Why are you coming back at this time?"

"Celebrate Minato's birthday. I'll go back with Kakashi after picking up Naruto." Jiraiya ate at the table full of delicious food, "Teacher, let me tell you, I'm really starving to death. Minato's refrigerator Ah, there’s nothing in there except canteen lunch boxes, and the milk is expired.”

"Naruto Kakashi is not here, so Minato-chan won't go back." It seemed like it was just a coincidence, and he didn't come back after hearing some rumors that he shouldn't have heard.Sarutobi Hiruzen breathed a sigh of relief and nodded to the cockroach at his feet.

The embarrassed cockroach crawled into the cracks in the ground and walked away in a very humane way.Isn't it embarrassing? The oil girl Zhiwei has been monitoring and investigating to cause trouble for the third generation in the past few days, but now she has to send the third person away together with others.

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't have so many ideas. He and Minato were already in trouble, and with the addition of Jiraiya, it couldn't end. Moreover, the former Hokage was imprisoned by the new Hokage. Would it be nice to tell him and him? Minato couldn't afford to throw this person away, but Konoha couldn't afford to throw him away. "Hey, eat slowly, and I'll ask the kitchen to make you scrambled eggs again."

"Woo, okay." Jiraiya was not polite to his teacher, "Do you still have the wine from last time?"

"Yes, yes, yes." Sarutobi Hiruzen poured the wine, and he rarely felt envious of his disciples. There was no one as alive as Jiraiya. "Chew carefully and slowly, how grown up you are."

"I am also your most lovely disciple." Jiraiya drank heavily and ate large pieces of meat. He raised his sleeves and wiped his mouth, "Have a good time."

"Hey." Sarutobi Hiruzen moved the tissue towards Jiraiya.

Jiraiya took out a tissue and said, "Where's Konohamaru?"

"When my children get older, they like to run around with their friends outside."

"Uh." Jiraiya hesitated for a tenth of a second, "I see Asuma is also at home, why don't we have lunch together."

"He has a girlfriend to give him love." Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled. At this point, he was still very satisfied with his youngest son.

"Oh oh oh" This is more interesting than Asma wearing an ANBU mask. Jiraiya quickly went to the room to investigate, "No, teacher, who is Asma's girlfriend?"

"They'll be here in a while." Hiruzen Sarutobi knocked Jiraiya down with a pipe stick.

But it was enough for Asuma to see the rough white hair.

"Hey, don't worry about it, Jiraiya was already a third-generation disciple before you were born."

Asuma squinted at the ANBU brought by the security chief and clenched his fist slightly.

Fists are really useless except for hitting people.

Konoha, January 62, 1, noon
