Ninja Ice House

From afar, looking at the young red-haired girl with binoculars, chatting with friends at the entrance of the dessert shop, Jiraiya sighed to Anbu, who was half kneeling behind him: "She doesn't look like Kushina, but she has a bit of The temperament of Princess Mito..."

"After all, she is the eldest daughter of the Gushan family. Although her mother's background is not high, she is also a descendant of Uzumaki, not a commoner with no background."

"Hmm!" Jiraiya put away the binoculars in his hand, sat cross-legged on top of the huge toad mount, and said to Anbu who was waiting for orders,

"The old man asked me to take a look, and the result was no different. That child is a genius. Even without good teachers and helpful friends, the Gushan family can guarantee her smooth growth."

"Mainly, I would like to ask Jiraiya-sama to distinguish between good and evil, good and bad, and good and bad. After all, it is well known that you have a sharp eye..." To be able to cultivate a big man like the golden flash, Namikaze Minato, Konoha Village is very impressed. Jiraiya's degree of conviction is beyond comprehension by outsiders.

"Near and distant are relative. It is impossible for us to treat them like enemies and expect others to be grateful to us. Isn't the lesson about Uchiha enough? I always think that the elder Danzo is too radical. It’s not done right.” Of course, this kind of thing is not something that an Anbu can talk about casually, and he can also make fun of the elder advisor and complain about what the teacher did, it’s nothing, and it’s better for other people not to talk too much.

"That's a very good boy, so don't worry too much. Also, although the Gushan minions stranded in the village have selfish intentions, they have no ill will towards the village. Let the old man rest assured. Daming, go early and return early. This year, I I will stay in the village for a while. Let's go..." After saluting, Anbu left without a sound, and Zirai could not help but sigh.

"Thousands of clues, intricate, troublesome!" Uchiha Itachi left a message, went to the country of the wind, and did not know when he would come back to discuss.

The matter of Orochimaru has not yet come to fruition, and there is no clue to find Destiny's Child.Taking down the half-empty wine gourd from the back, Jiraiya strolled along the long street of Konoha Village, which was clear after the snow.

I haven't been back for a while, but the village has changed a lot.Over the years, the Gushan family has invested a lot of money in the reconstruction, and the original antique architectural style has gradually become more fashionable.

The low wooden houses were also replaced by tall buildings.The characteristics of the integration of the times can be seen everywhere in this emerging town.

The closer it is to the gate, the more beautiful and prosperous it is, and the closer it is to the rear, the more primitive it looks.While Zilaiye was casually walking and drinking, he suddenly bumped into a passerby.

"Huh? I'm sorry..." Judging from the touch, it was either a child or a weak girl. The slightly drunk Zilai didn't pay attention for a while, and when he realized it, he was a little too late to avoid it.

Of course, the other party seemed to be a little absent-minded.When normal people see a drunk old man wandering on the road, they will unconsciously stay away from it.

A handsome child in front of him frowned slightly, but still upholding the tradition of respecting the old and caring for the young, he nodded to Zilai, who smelled of alcohol, as a greeting.

Jiraiya, who didn't take it seriously, was about to pass him by, and suddenly asked: "Brother, do you know where the home of the ninja teacher Mizuki in the ninja school is?"

"I'm looking for it too." Hearing this, the handsome young man turned around,

"You're here to visit too?"

"Ask him something!" Ji Lai also smiled at the other party,

"Brother, what's your name..."

"Uchiha Sasuke!"

"Uchiha... Zuosuke, so it's you!" Jiraiya lost his drunkenness in an instant, looked at Uchiha Zuosuke a few times, then nodded indiscernibly,

"Sure enough, he is a heroic young man. If you don't mind, let's look for it together?"

"Alright! Old man, what's your name?"

"I'm not that old! Haha..." As if thinking of something happy, Jiraiya and Uchiha Sasuke walked forward side by side,

"I am known as Immortal Toad Zilai!"

"Are you also a Konoha ninja?"

"Hmm! Young people nowadays don't know much about the senior ninjas in the village! Does ninja school no longer teach history..."

"Yes, but I haven't heard of Toad Immortal, only Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara."

"Really!" Zilai, who was unsuccessful in bragging, also touched the bridge of his nose in a little embarrassment.

"Maybe I haven't learned yet. Let's not mention this for now, why did you find Mr. Mizuki?"

"I'm his student, and I'm here because I have something to ask for advice on spiritual practice."

"Students are visiting their teachers now, and teachers are preaching and accepting work. Do they have to give gifts?" Jiraiya pointed to the fruit basket and flowers carried by Uchiha's left assistant, and asked strangely.

"Normally, it's not necessary. It's just that Teacher Mizuki's wife has been pregnant with a baby for more than seven months. It's not good to come to disturb me empty-handed."

"Oh, that's it, that's true! I can't just go like this, let's turn a corner and go to a nearby store to buy some gifts..." This place is not far from the Wood Industry Hospital, and Mingcha Street is also nearby. There are many exquisite There are several small shops that sell fruits and flowers. Yamanaka Ino's home is nearby, and he happens to run a flower shop.

Ten minutes later, Jiraiya and Sasuke Uchiha, who had a small flower basket in their hands, stood at the door of a well-kept small villa, and the sign read

"Mizuki" and

"Tsubaki" name.Judging from the style, it should have been an ordinary small western-style building, but it has been converted into a playful villa. The balcony and terrace on the second floor are filled with flower pots. The evergreen plants are growing tenaciously. The green trees sway lightly against the wind against the white snow.

"It should be here!" Uchiha Zuosuke knocked lightly on the door, not long after, there was a sound of footsteps, the door opened, and Mizuki, who was wearing home clothes, opened the door.

"Huh? Zuozhu! It's really rare. Is there something wrong?" Seeing that the other party was carrying a gift, he must have come here for a special visit. Mizuki was about to welcome him in, and immediately looked at the white-haired old man beside him.

"This is... Jiraiya-sama? You're back? It's been a long time..."

"It's me! I just came back a few days ago! I want to ask you something, but I met this little brother, so we came together."

"Flourishing, it is a great honor to have you here." Mizuki's attitude made Uchiha Zuosuke realize that the status of the elderly who came with him may be unusual.

"Excuse me!" The two walked into the room and found that there was no brazier or fireplace inside, but it was warm and the smoke was not too heavy.

"What are you using for heating? I didn't see you turn on the heating..." Jilai also looked at the surrounding furnishings curiously. It was a little different from the traditional ones, and the light was much brighter.

"Ground heating! Recently, this relatively mild heating method is more popular in new houses in the village. It is very good for the elderly, children and pregnant women. Last time I went to the newly opened real estate to see the model room. I saw this thing. It is very good. The money is loaded." Leading Jiraiya and Uchiha Zuosuke to the living room to sit down, a soft and lazy voice came from inside.

"Is there a guest? I'm sorry, it's warm and a little sleepy." Wearing loose maternity clothes, Xiao Chun walked out with a tired face, and poured tea to the guests virtuously.

"Madam, you are too polite, thank you! We took the liberty to interrupt..." Jiraiya at this time, after all, still maintains the demeanor of a respected old senior, and his gestures are still very decent, Uchiha Zuosuke is a little dull Too much, after all, I don't have much experience in this kind of occasion.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Xiaochun went back to the house to rest.Mizuki took out some snacks and brought them up for everyone to chat while eating.

"The last time I saw Jiraiya-sama was not long after I took the Chunin Exam. It has been several years. I have also married and will soon have a child."

"I have a little impression of you! After Nine-Tails attacked the village, you were quite active. It was the old man who asked you to take care of those children who lost their loved ones?"

"It's me! What happened back then, ten years have passed in the blink of an eye."

"Let's not talk about that, I have something... About Orochimaru, I want to ask you. By the way, this little brother who met by chance, seems to have something to ask you, let him talk first!" Has been quietly Sasuke Uchiha, who listened to the two people's greetings, met Mizuki's searching eyes and asked Mizuki: "Recently, I feel that I have encountered a bottleneck in my practice. The actual combat class was overwhelmed by Kaorin, and I still can't find a way to improve it. For clues, I want to ask Mr. Mizuki for advice on what to do next, whether to practice powerful ninjutsu in order to turn defeat into victory."

"I want to win Kaorin!" Mizuki nodded knowingly, and didn't care who gave Uchiha Zuosuke a move and asked him to come to him.

In any case, I am also a serious teacher, and it is right to preach and receive karma to solve doubts.If you have to come face to face, as long as you don't do anything suspicious, it's impossible for others to say anything.

"Blindly longing for advanced ninjutsu is a common mistake made by young people who are new to the ninja. This knowledge should have been taught to you by the teacher after you became a ninja. However, your progress in practice is too fast, so you should know it earlier. It's not impossible. You wait..." Mizuki got up while talking, walked into the back room, took out a Chakra test strip, and handed it over.

"Put it between your fingers, pour Chakra into it..." Uchiha Zuosuke followed suit, and within half a minute, the Chakra test paper first wrinkled and then turned into burnt ashes.

"Fire and thunder, and they still go hand in hand, a rare dual attribute..."

"Dual attributes?"

"It's the Chakra attribute. Where is a ninja's natural specialty. You will learn Fire Dungeon and Lightning Dungeon in the future, and you will have a natural advantage. This is a good thing. They are all powerful attributes, suitable for fighting." The principle of mutual generation and mutual restraint was explained to Uchiha Zuosuke.

"Originally, your parents or tutors should give you advice, but..." The Uchiha family disappeared, and the inheritance naturally ceased to exist.

Uchiha Zuosuke has also seen the so-called chakra attributes in the few remaining documents, but, relying on his own understanding, it is not as good as a professional teacher like Mizuki explaining it in a simple and simple way.

"In the past, I won't say much about it. Speaking of the misunderstanding of learning advanced ninjutsu, the so-called ninjutsu level is the level of difficulty in practice. In most cases, it does match the power of ninjutsu. Specific ninjas have very different performances. Just like me, Chakra is mainly based on fire and supplemented by earth. It is particularly difficult to learn water escape. Even if it can be used, the power is much smaller. Fire Dungeon and Earth Dungeon are a good deal..."

"Then, my direction is Lei Dun and Huo Dun?"

"Yes! Huo Dun is easy to say, you Uchihas are based on Huo Dun, I don't need to teach you this, Lei Dun, there are not many people who are really proficient in the village, I only know some superficial D-level ninjutsu, and a C-level ninjutsu. Ninjutsu, I can't teach you too much, if you want to learn, I will teach you some time later." After a pause, Mizuki continued to explain,

"Of course, what I'm going to talk about today is not the Fire Dungeon and Lightning Dungeon, but Chakra itself. You need to practice this now." Mizuki stretched out his palm as he spoke, and in the air above, Chakras gathered, slowly There was a qualitative change, and soon, a small flame appeared in front of Uchiha Zuosuke.

"Fire escape without seal?" Everything in front of him was beyond Uchiha Zuosuke's general cognition of ninjutsu.

"The shape and nature are what I want to remind you. Whether it is chanting or seal seals, they are essentially auxiliary means of performing spells, and the core is the change of the shape and nature of Chakra. Only know how to perform spell seal seals, and the amount of chakra can be piled up. Increasing the power is just superficial, if the shape change and nature change are practiced properly, even a C-level ninjutsu can be strengthened to the power of an A-level ninjutsu." See Uchiha Zuosuke still seems to understand Understood, Jiraiya couldn't help interjecting: "The power of ninjutsu is only the appearance, and the power of ninjas is the root. Controlling Chakra and allowing it to generate and bless ninjutsu according to its own will is the right way. Don't be fooled by something. The level of ninjutsu has been blinded. Especially for a genius like you, it is a pity to go astray." Mizuki glanced at Jiraiya who was unwilling to be left out in the cold, and continued: "You can change the form of the fire escape many times. In the fire escape ninjutsu handed down by the practitioners, I slowly realized that this is not urgent, and it is relatively easy. Of course, there is a prerequisite, that is, the chakra control must be passed. It is to attach chakra to the soles of the feet, control the amount and speed of the output, and achieve the effect, you can try it. As for the change in nature..." Mizuki clasped the palm of his hand lightly, pinching out the small flame in the palm of his hand.

"Blazing, high temperature, burning, spreading, and destroying, every expert who is proficient in fire escape has a different understanding of it. Mine is burning and spreading..."

"I am heat and destruction." Jiraiya added,

"Essentially similar, the details are slightly different."
