[Naruto·Itachi bg] A clear spring

The moon was sparse, and the woods at night always carried a chilling wind. After leaving the village, Team [-] marched for two hours and instead camped on the spot to rest.Set up camp...how many days will we stay?The three students who couldn't figure out the teacher's plan still got busy according to their division of labor.

Two seniors went to pitch tents. This was a senior class course, and she, who had skipped a grade, had to collect firewood and water.

Time flies so fast... I haven't left the village for a year.

Looking at the black and blue water, the bright moonlight reflected a face with baby fat.Her chin has become a lot sharper, and she has really grown up compared to when she was brought back by her uncle two years ago.Silently filling the water, the disturbed water surface was filled with white fragments of light.

The firewood had been picked up and piled up long ago, just waiting for someone to set a fire to light it - she couldn't, so she had to borrow a fire.

He stretched his hand towards the fire lit by the teacher, trying to drive away the damp coolness in the woods at night.

"You don't know how to use fire escape?" Opposite the dancing flames were the somewhat surprised eyes of his black-haired teammate.

It turns out that Hinata-senpai is not a facial paralysis, the information is wrong.

"Fire Release is not exclusive to the Uchiha family. I don't have fire-attribute chakra." She has been asked this question many times, and admitting her shortcomings will be beneficial to future cooperation.

"Then you were so serious about making seals during the competition that day." It was funny to think that a little kid like him actually tricked his opponent Yu Hayata.If it were him, he wouldn't be able to see any flaws.

"I just copied it, you have to practice it." It turned out that the details of the game had been memorized by the person in front of me, and maybe he had analyzed it several times.Depressedly, he poked the fire with a stick and brought out a few sparks.Firewood that gets oxygen burns more fully. "I'm already very depressed. My family has a unique skill, but I can't learn it."

"When it comes to wind escape, Mr. Kino is a leader." Hinata Qing answered. He had a good impression of this teammate.Although he replaced Akimichi Aoi whom he recognized, he is still a good teammate.

"Well, thank you for the compliment, Hinata-chan." Sarutobi Kino, who had set off a fire and walked around for a while, finally came back and picked up the conversation. "Let's go to bed early today. We'll be training around here these days. I'll stay up until midnight. The three of you will take shifts at midnight."

"I'm third."

"Second one." The two boys immediately announced their shift order.

"Then I will be the first to keep vigil. Good night, teachers and seniors~" Uchiha Izumi, who knew that he was being taken care of, stood up, dusted himself off and jumped onto a branch.The location was chosen well, and there was absolutely no one visible from below.Relaxing her mind, she calmed her breathing and gradually became one with the surrounding environment, as if there were only three people here.

After a slight movement, the three people who got into the tent and sleeping bags disappeared from her sight.

She also closed her eyes and slowly expanded her perception range while reducing her chakra consumption.

It's tiring to have all your senses turned on for three hours and to be forced to concentrate.Therefore, when Hinata Qing came to her on the second shift, she could hardly hold on anymore.She nodded lightly to her teammates, and after receiving a look of understanding from them, she immediately ran to the tent and squeezed into her sleeping bag.

When performing tasks in the wild, there is no distinction between men and women. In the same tent, her sleeping bag was located at the edge, and Yu Hayata next to her deliberately left a distance of twenty centimeters.So the three sleeping bags over there were packed to the brim.

What was more devastating than the damp tent and sleeping so close to a stranger for the first time was Mr. Kino's snoring.

In her not-too-long life, she had never met anyone who snored while sleeping... It was so noisy. Why could Hayata-senpai sleep so peacefully and orderly?Her sleepiness was shaken away.

Unable to bear it, she blocked her ears with notes and fell asleep under the abduction of Duke Zhou.

In this dream, there was an acquaintance.But it's not her father or mother, but her uncle who has never had a dream - Yue Uchiha.

She was wearing a custom-made kimono, with dark plum blossoms on a sky blue background, and a yellow bow standing steadily behind her.She and her uncle walked on Konoha's bustling Mulan Street to pick up the cake they had ordered a few days ago.Along the way, she pestered her uncle and bought many new things: candy figures, candied haws, sweet maltose, colorful candies, and novel donuts.

"Isn't our Xiaoquan's favorite salty food? Why did he change his appetite so quickly?"

That's right - doesn't she like salty food? "They are all little weasels. They eat sweets every day, and they even took me away."

"It's very sweet, and you'll feel better after eating it."

"I'll be very happy if uncle comes to see me!"

"What nonsense are you talking about? I wanted to celebrate your birthday with you today. Do you want to buy anything else?"

"No, let's go back. Shisui and Auntie have to wait impatiently."

The girl who held his uncle's big hand and only reached his thigh walked silently beside him.

"What are your wishes for this year?"

"Wishes need to be whispered when making a wish, but now -" The girl's cunning eyes blinked, still showing her familiar mischievous spirit. "I want my uncle to carry me."

"I really can't do anything about you. You weren't so clingy before." Lying on the man's generous back, she felt very safe.It seemed as if she had returned to the time when she was an orphan, devastated and uneasy, and was gradually soothed by this warm back.

"Then what do you want to say to uncle?"

"There are so many, I'm afraid I won't be able to finish them all."

"Then say it slowly." Anyway, it's still some time before we get to the Memorial Monument.

"Well... the war is over. My aunt has been in poor health these past few years and needs recuperation. But she visits you every day, bringing your favorite bento. There is a senior there named Kakashi Hatake. He likes to visit his friends, so his aunt often gives him bento. His aunt's craftsmanship has always been very good. I think Kakashi-senpai has grown taller and stronger. Shisui... He has become a Chuunin, I became a little transparent in the ANBU of the third generation. If I don't learn the skills of picking up girls, I will go home every day and eat one meal without finishing the next meal. I have no merit except being able to tease birds. Uncle, what do you think of Shisui? Can I still get a girlfriend like this? I won’t have to wait until my dad’s age to solve major life issues... By the way, I am already 7 years old. After graduation, I joined a special team. I will probably go out to the village frequently in the future. Teacher My teammates and I are very strong, and I should be getting stronger and stronger. We are all working hard. The Uchiha clan will one day be accepted by others. By the way... The most important thing is, uncle, my cuttlefish sashimi It’s already delicious. Let’s go back quickly. Can I show you my hand?”

When the commemorative monument arrived, why was it in the middle of their way home?

"Xiaoquan, I'm sorry, let's do it next time." The man who put her down wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, but in the blink of an eye, she would shed more, and she couldn't stop them no matter what. "Stop crying. If you cry again, the runny nose will come out."

After sniffing and wiping the non-existent snot, the girl still smiled, her watery eyes like a lake filled with bits of moonlight. "Uncle is teasing me again. I will walk my own path in the future." Taking the cake from the man's hand, there were still 6 candles in the transparent box.

The living people have grown up long ago, but the dead friends have stayed where they are, forever young.

"Well, uncle believes in you."

"Uncle, is there anything you want me to convey?"

The man shook his head gently. Someone would deliver the relics entrusted to him by his brother. "You are all doing well." He was reassured. "Then, I'll go back."

"Okay, goodbye uncle, remember to come home often." He shook his hand, and the familiar and generous figure never looked back.Gradually disappeared in front of the memorial monument.

After a long silence, she walked forward with heavy steps, and the girl did not look back.

Warm memories are the force that keeps her moving forward.

Thank you, uncle, for accepting me and warming me when I was lonely and helpless.

____________________________________________

She woke up early the next morning and closed her eyelids to feel it.There was no one in the tent, the three of them were outside.She immediately got out of the sleeping bag, combed her hair, washed her face with the water condensed from the morning fog, and went out.

"Are you awake? Little girl, don't you want to sleep for a while? It's only 5 o'clock." The teacher who had been watching for half the night still looked refreshed.

"No, didn't the teacher say we need special training?"

"Hey, don't be in such a hurry, you have to have some breakfast first."

"What do you want to eat, junior? We haven't decided yet."

"The ones with the highest votes just now were grilled fish and grilled birds."

"How about a few of each kind?"

After tilting his head and thinking for a while, Izumi Uchiha had a better suggestion, "Auntie made me a big lunch box, let's eat together?"

“Blessed, blessed, blessed.”

"Is it a pancake?"

"Why are you just thinking about pancakes?"

"It's really delicious. Didn't you eat it yesterday?"

"..."

Chatting one after another, the pleasant breakfast time ended just like that.

"For our team, infiltration, concealment, and anti-tracking are very important skills. Before proceeding with the task at hand, I want to ensure that you have this ability. Now, seven o'clock, four o'clock, twelve o'clock, every Pick a direction to explore the surrounding clues and come back in an hour. Don’t let me detect your traces.”

"Yes!" The three of them quickly picked a direction and disappeared.

Her position was at twelve o'clock. The sun had not reached its peak and there was plenty of sunlight. It was not conducive to concealment, but... it was conducive to detection.

The sunlight in the forest had a slightly cool shadow, but while moving at high speed, she chose to stick to the main trunk on the side to avoid damaging the branches that were commonly used by ninjas at a suitable height.It's very humid here, and the branches are covered with moss, with some slight traces of trampling.Touching the fallen debris, she felt that the mark was very fresh and slightly similar to the mark left on another branch three meters away.But - that's it, there are no traces of trampling within the ten meters ahead.Could it be that he disappeared suddenly, could it be that he changed his route?Look up at the leaves above.There were some creases on the green branches. If she hadn't stood at a good angle and had good lighting, she would never have noticed them.Two people, then there was one... carefully peeling away the bushes under the tree, and a huge footprint was stuck in the mud, facing northeast.

An hour later, the three of them returned to the starting point to gather.

"Hayata, you marched in the 7 o'clock direction for 10 minutes, then chose to hide on the spot, and then came back."

The brown-haired boy in question clenched his fist.

"Hinata, you walked slowly in the 4 o'clock direction for half an hour, then changed the route and turned back quickly."

"Yes." Hinata nodded as he was told that he could not conceal and detect at the same time, he could only choose one.He heard that the Wind Release Ninja's perception ability was also very strong, so he knew it.

"Little girl, you..." Sarutobi Kino's tone was unusually uncertain, "Where did you go after running at a normal speed for 5 minutes at twelve o'clock? How did you come back?" He really couldn't sense any trace of her. , just like the game that day.

Three pairs of curious eyes stared at her, doubling her pressure.

"I didn't use chakra. I walked back normally. However, teacher, you and I have the same attributes. Wind energy can be used for perception and concealment." She thought for a moment and answered seriously.

"I was walking back too, how come I was discovered by the teacher?" Yu Hayata asked softly.Before joining the team, he had also performed some tasks at the root level. He couldn't be said to be good at concealment, but he was still good at it.

"Hmm...maybe it's because I understand the teacher's way of perception better?" Mainly because she walks differently. Of course, let's not mention the dark steps and limb bends that others can't learn.

"Okay, tell me what you have discovered?" He set the traces himself, and of course he hoped that his disciples would gain something.

"At seven o'clock, there was a person walking hurriedly close to the ground. Judging from the remaining traces of footprints, they should have been left last night. He disappeared after 100 meters. Several relatively complete footprints were found near the bushes. This person should have consciously concealed his traces, but his ability is insufficient. He should be someone who doesn't know ninjutsu but knows some taijutsu. Over."

"At four o'clock, there are footprints every three meters on the thick branches. The traces are very slight. There are not many traces left by the moss on the tree. If you don't look carefully, you won't notice. He should be a ninja, over."

"At the twelve o'clock direction, the traces of two people appeared after walking straight for 5 meters. There were traces of two people stepping on the branches, one was slight, the other was heavy. After 50 meters, the traces no longer appeared on the branches. Above the last branch The branches were slightly creased and damaged. It was speculated that some ninjutsu was used to change the route and fly away. The bush under the tree had a very complete footprint, judging from the degree of silt sinking in and the speed of drying. The two of them The joint should have taken place last night. Judging from the pattern of footprints under the tree, he is wearing Konoha's standard ninja shoes. He is about 1.8 meters tall and weighs 60 to 70 kilograms."

As soon as she finished speaking, the three of them all looked up at the teacher——

It seems that the man in front of me is 1.8 meters tall and weighs about the same amount...

"Ah haha~ I did it last night. You are all excellent." He didn't expect to be exposed in person. He really found a treasure. "Young lady, you are very good. Who taught you this?" Her concealment is excellent, her detection skills are also good, and she can also analyze.

"When I was young, I liked to go to the jungle with my father to catch wild animals. Maybe I learned it by the way at that time." The memory is too far away and she doesn't want to recall it, but what she learned at that time will never be erased.

"Well, you performed well today. Now you can practice freely. Remember your division of labor when you come back, otherwise you won't have lunch. I will teach you something else in the afternoon." Sarutobi Kino couldn't help but glance at Uchiha Izumi again as he stood up to leave.

Your child is very smart and I will take good care of him.

After finishing their free training, they had grilled fish for lunch. Izumi Uchiha, who was praised for his good cooking skills, had a tendency to become the team's cook. The atmosphere in the team was lively, and the relationship between the four of them became much closer.

The training in the afternoon was chakra adhesion tree climbing and water walking.After succeeding effortlessly, she had no choice but to practice the shuriken technique by herself.Only in this way can we avoid the burning eyes of our teammates who spent half a day climbing trees and walking half a day treading water.

There was nothing she could do... She had already learned how to climb trees.As for treading water, she is born with the ability to love water, and it saves a lot of effort for her to practice anything related to water.Moreover, medical ninjutsu requires practitioners to have extremely precise chakra control... She has little chakra to begin with, so she cannot waste any of it.This kind of controlled training... naturally comes when she is squealing.Uchiha Izumi smiled lightly. She was in a good mood after being beaten by Brother Shisui for days. It turned out that she was not so worthless. It must be that the two sparring partners were too perverted, huh!

Du - the squeaking was too much, even the kunai thrown was moved a lot.

Uchiha Izumi, who was about to throw the next one, suddenly felt something was wrong... Why did he feel like there was a group of terrible things rushing towards him in front of him?

Bang bang bang - the ground is shaking, and smoke can be clearly seen in front.

This is?Wild boar?

Run!Seeing the movement of the brown hair in the water, the tree-climbing Hinata and the young man pretending to be asleep immediately ran away.

When the smoke and dust dissipated, the three people gathered on the spot looked helplessly at the collapsed tent.Sarutobi Kino felt the pain in his flesh so much that his heart and soul were trembling!This was the ultra-light luxury tent that he had finally snapped up. He regretted it so much that his intestines turned green.I thought there wouldn't be any surprises so close to the village, and it didn't matter if I slept in luxury.Unexpectedly... would he go back to the life of sleeping in the open and sleeping on the floor when he was in ANBU?I sighed several times, sighing and suddenly feeling that something was wrong——

"Where's the little Uchiha girl?"

The two teenagers who were asked collectively shook their heads, running too fast and not paying attention.

Oops!My new disciples/new teammates won’t be fucked by pigs, right?

Where to find someone who has been bitten by a wild boar?

"We..." What should we do?Hayata Yuya didn't know, he had never experienced such a thing.

"Look for it?" Hinata Qing felt that although his new teammate looked like a tender cabbage, he wasn't... so weak, right?But when he left the tree beside the road, he did see the little cabbage teammate sitting on top of one of the pigs with his eyes really shining, uh...

"Let's go after those pigs!" The teacher came to the conclusion and immediately led the team in the direction where the group of wild boars disappeared.

……

Of course, they didn't chase her for long before they saw the tall shadow facing the sun. The golden sunlight reflected her tall and majestic figure behind the dark figure, and the Buddha's light shone everywhere.

Xiaobaicai Quan, who was sitting on it, waved one hand and said boldly——

"Three meals have been provided for the past few days!"

After speaking, she patted the wild boar under her body that had become mosquito-repellent eyes.

The law of the jungle - as long as it is strong enough, anything can become your prey.
