Naruto: Spirit of Life

What Sakura wants to take cramming is the genin training course. She has already learned the theories and knowledge of the ninja school.

Maya was also paid to do things, and he taught Sakura what she needed to learn. She didn't teach her more because she was the heroine of the anime. He was able to accept Sakura's tutoring task because of the number of days of tutoring at her home. It's relatively small, but compared with other tutoring tasks, the pay is not much at all.

In the first few days, Sakura was still very reserved, and slowly started to chat. Maybe it was because Maya and she were not very old, and Maya's approachable appearance made her full of things to say. I want to talk to Maya.

"Maya, do you know? My father and mother are really annoying sometimes, especially when they belittle me in front of people outside, or tell embarrassing things about me when I was a child, which makes me feel very shameless. "

Maya nodded. This was a true portrayal of most ordinary families. He still couldn't understand the psychology of this. Parents especially like to belittle their children in front of outsiders. It seems that they are trampling on their children's dignity under their feet. It's fun to be embarrassed in front of others.

Maya could only be a listener. During the break, she heard Sakura complaining about her parents, and finally talked about school.

"I thought it was Mr. Iruka who was giving me tutoring this time. Maya, you don't know. Mr. Iruka's class is like hypnosis. I feel drowsy after listening to it. But every time He came to give me lessons.”

Maya smiled politely. He always spoke less and listened more and said calmly: "Although I have only met Mr. Iruka a few times, I heard that he is a very responsible teacher."

Maya looked at Sakura who could hardly stop, glanced at the clock, and said, "Sakura, the rest time is over."

"Ah, so fast?"

Sakura glanced at the clock and saw that it was already one o'clock in the afternoon, and quickly opened her notes.

Maya didn't even use books or anything like that. She just lectured to Sakura directly, in a relaxed and natural manner. Compared with Sakura's previous teachers at the ninja school, she was really far behind. It felt like this was the real Professional!

……

Half a month has passed, and the relationship between Maya and Sakura has changed from strangers to familiar passers-by, the kind of people who meet and greet each other.

Over the past half month, Maya also has a different view of Sakura. Although ordinary civilians have many shortcomings that are annoying, they also have advantages that cannot be ignored. Wherever there is light, there must be Shadow, this yin and yang concept, applies everywhere.

……

At the mission meeting center, after the vacation, Maya met the designated mission of the Third Hokage. She was wearing a dark blue tights, with red swirl marks on the shoulders of both arms, and a ninja vest. She was currently in the Hokage's office, standing In front of the Third Hokage.

The Third Hokage looked serious at this time and said in a deep voice: "This is a commission from Yuliang Village. Take a look!"

Maya took over the task list and looked at what Yuliang Village had entrusted and the real reason why the Third Hokage appointed him.

Yuliang Village is a tourist resort. There are natural hot springs and a unique forest formed by weirwood trees. In addition, it has a history of thousands of years, leaving a mysterious veil to this village.

"The world is so big and full of wonders, including the Weirwood Forest. I never thought there was such a place in the world!"

Maya sighed, she didn't expect that dream-like legendary scene to actually exist in this world of Naruto!

The Third Hokage also spoke: "When my companions and I were still teenagers, we had the honor to follow the First Generation there and saw the weirwood forest. Although it was spectacular, it was also scary. The human faces on the tree trunks , looks just like a real human face.”

"First Generation! Senju Hashirama? Is there anything special about this Yuliang Village?"

Maya couldn't help but murmur in her heart. On the surface, she had been looking at the introduction on the task list, but it could be summed up in two words.

"It's haunted! Hokage-sama, since when did we ninjas take on the business of exorcising spirits?"

Maya wanted to say that there were ghosts or something there, but he almost forgot that this was the world of Naruto, and he could no longer use the concepts of his previous life in it.

The Third Hokage also sighed helplessly, took a puff of his pipe, seemed to be complaining, and continued to say to Maya: "Oh, originally we didn't accept this kind of mission. The haunting incident in Yuliang Village has already affected The survival foundation of their village has been reduced, so we agreed because there was no other way.”

Maya smiled and nodded, but she was thinking in her heart: "Huh... Isn't it because I gave you too much, are you excited? Obviously a B-level exploration mission, the reward is more than some A-level missions, and I'm afraid still got more."

"Every night in Yuliang Village, ghosts appear, so there is a high probability that some ninja is pretending to be one, so this time, in addition to you, there are two jounin helping you!"

Just as the Third Hokage finished speaking, there was a knock on the door, and Maya subconsciously turned around and looked over.

"Come in!"

The door opened, and a man wearing sunglasses and a Konoha vest walked in, and the other jounin was a female jounin with black hair and red eyes.

"They are all familiar faces!"

Maya couldn't help but murmur in her heart, Ebisu, Yuhi Kurenai, Konoha's special jounin!

Maya's eyes lingered on Yuhi Kurenai's body for one more moment. He had only seen her once on the streets of Konoha before. The ninja vest completely covered Yuhi Kurenai's graceful figure.

"Let me go, who designed this Konoha ninja vest? No, why is Yuhi Kurenai wearing a ninja vest today?"

Although he thought so, there was no change on Maya's surface. After looking at it for a few times, he turned his head and looked at the Third Hokage.

"Hokage-sama, special Jonin Ebisu reports for duty!"

Ebisu gently adjusted his sunglasses, looking confident. After seeing Maya, he naturally recognized this chuunin.

"Lord Hokage!"

Yuhi Kurenai also glanced at Maya and was also startled. They had met each other several times on the road, but they had not crossed paths. She had also heard of Maya's name. She was a civilian genius and the first to pass the Kakashi Survival Trial. graduates, every time I think that we will have the opportunity to work together.

"Jounin Yuhi Kurenai, Jounin Ebisu, I have a C-level mission for you, because it is very likely that a jounin-level ninja will appear to protect Maya chuunin and complete the mission."

"Yes! Hokage-sama."

Kurenai Yuhi, Ebisu replied calmly.

Maya stared at the boss at this moment. Damn, I really learned this. It was obviously one task, but it was split into two tasks by the Third Hokage. This way, I saved a lot of money. I really know how to use it. Who can If you call the Third Hokage a fool, if you treat the Third Hokage as a fool, you may not even know when he was betrayed.

The Third Hokage also gave Maya a "you know" at this time, with a look of understanding, and they understood each other tacitly, and took a puff of the old cigarette.
