After landing on the shore, no ninja attacked again. Although the three of them only had scratches, their clothes were all wet on their bodies. Only Teacher Kai and the client looked dry.

The client is holding the cat and walking away on his own now. This country is considered barren, and there are very few goods along the coast. Only exported raw materials and imported fabrics are piled there. The cargo ship has not arrived yet, and the dock workers are working there. The villagers were also wrapped in blue headscarves with waves patterns, wiping sweat, chatting, and eating local fruits, but they looked very sour.

The client will stay here for three days, and Kaiban will naturally accompany him. The couple are both residents of Konoha. Although the client is not a ninja, he still regards himself as a member of the village.

She was tired from the long journey, and she encountered something like this again. Whether she knew she would be attacked by ninjas or not, she was frightened. Now her face was full of shock, but she still smiled slightly and asked the four of them if they wanted to go to her husband's place. Living with her saves money and provides peace of mind.

Most of these accompanying tasks require the ninja to find a place to live by himself. When the client said this, Teacher Kai agreed. The two of them had no friendship, but they were also neighbors, so there was nothing to be embarrassed about.

Encountering an attack was considered a B-level mission. Whether the client knew or didn't report it or was completely unaware, Metkai did not intend to mention it again. The couple was separated for the sake of the village, and their lives were poor and difficult. At this time Pretending not to know is the way to youth.

People in this country are very enthusiastic when they see Konoha's forehead protector. According to local residents, they have never had their own ninja village here, but Konoha will continue to send envoys to communicate with the Country of Waves, and there are even permanent envoys here. Help them develop and develop into strong men.

This country is not big, just a little bigger than Konoha Village. We quickly found the residence of the client’s husband. It was evening, half of the sun was stuck on the sea level, and the temperature was not too low, but it was still so cool. Neji felt a little chilly.

Fortunately, the small hand stove given by Miss Hinata is driven by chakra, so there is no problem if it gets wet. Such a small thing can continuously emit warmth, which brings some comfort to the three children living in a foreign country.

It was such a small hand stove, and I never imagined that one day it would be used by three people. At first it was just Neji who took it out to see if it was broken, and then Li rushed over after discovering the treasure. Finally, it was Tenten, and Neji didn't refuse. After all, everyone was cold.

When they arrived at their destination, the three children walked all the way holding the little guy. The client held Goro, who was also warm. Only Metkai had both hands empty. He stood on his head and shouted "cultivation, youth" all the way. Xiao Li also rarely joined. It seemed that he was really frozen after being soaked in the water for a long time.

Although the ninja's physique is better, he is still a child after all.

"Xiongzai, it's me."

The client's fingers tapped lightly on the somewhat worn door panel twice, as if with a little more force, the door panel would fall apart.

You can hear the panic and noise inside through the door panel, and you can hear the sound of things being knocked off and broken.

The door was finally opened, and a tall man wearing a vest and a forehead protector came out. His skin was yellow, an earthy yellow, but there were a lot of calluses. The wrinkles between his eyebrows suddenly appeared after seeing his wife. They all dispersed.

"Nao...zi..."

"Is it really you?!"

The big man suddenly took the client into his arms.

"I haven't seen you for five years. You have aged a lot."

The client was not angry either. He stroked the big man's back soothingly and patted him like he was coaxing a child.

"You are getting old too."

There is some bitterness and longing that cannot be conveyed by words alone. At this time, I can't even squeeze out a single tear.

Neji thought of Goro's nonsense before. This man was not from a ninja family, so how could he have a contracted ninja cat?

Tiantian and Li on the side watched this touching couple's reunion. Although there was no more verbal communication between the two, their long-lasting movements and the love and longing in their eyes were touching enough. Li hugged Teacher Kai and the two cried tears of noodles together, and even Tiantian had some tears in his eyes.

This is indeed touching. Neji thought.

"Uncle Xiongzai, what's wrong? Are there guests?"

A boy walked out from the back room carrying something. The thing was very tall, only half of his face and the small curly hair on his head were exposed.

The client, who was still hugging her, became visibly stiff, but there was another person who was stunned at the same time.

"Your child?"

"How could it be! I picked it up..."

Yuya was about to explain, but was interrupted by the sound of something falling to the ground.

The boy in white clothes seemed to have forgotten how to make a sound, and it took him a long time to spit out a sound:

"Liao..."

The curly-haired boy had grown a lot taller and stronger, and the color of his skin had become almost the same as that of the locals. His face had also developed and opened up, but he could still be recognized by Neji at a glance.

Liao was still stunned until he heard his own name, and then he tentatively spelled out the name that he had read countless times in his heart for the first time.

"Ning... times..."

The next second, Liao jumped up like a spring and jumped on Neji. Liao was probably older than Ningci, and he was almost a head taller than Ningci. It was a bit funny for such a big boy to hang on Ningci's body.

"Fool."

Neji didn't stand firm and almost fell to the ground, but Tenten's eyesight and quick hands beside him quickly helped him.

Ningji lowered his eyes and looked at Liao, who was half-kneeling on the floor, and raised the corner of his mouth in an arc. It was an expression I had never seen before every day. It was not a sneer or ridicule, but a smile from the bottom of my heart.

"Do you know?"

Yuya asked a question on behalf of everyone present.

"He's my friend!" The only one!

"It's just bad luck."

I heard that Uchiha children would become paranoid and crazy when they grow up, but Ryo still looked the same.

"They say nothing will happen to fools. It was a mistake of mine to worry about you."

"You are the idiot! How could you do something like that if you weren't an idiot!"

"Maybe." Ningci patted Liao's curly hair, wondering if it was okay.

"Get up, shame on you."

Neither of them mentioned that incident again, nor did they ask the other how they survived.

A girl came to Liola. She also had black hair and had the Uchiha family's signature fried hair. She hugged her brother's arm tightly and looked at everyone except her brother and Yuya with hostile eyes.

"My sister, Qianhua."

The scroll used to hold food every day got wet, so Xiong Zai generously offered to treat them to a meal, and nearby residents kindly gave them a change of clothes.

"Your meatballs are mine!"

Liao's chopsticks quickly reached towards Neci's plate, and Neji let him pick it up, but poked away the other's protruding head with one hand.

"You can't eat without words."

"Where are you from, grandpa?"

"Younger than you."

Although he is said to be Neji's teammate and partner, Li and Tiantian have never seen Neji like this. To use an inappropriate metaphor, he looks like he is alive.

"Neji never gave me his meatballs!" Li said with tears in his eyes.

"You should have a good meal!" Tiantian took out a paper fan from nowhere and hit Li on the head.

Will Neji's friends include us?
