On the application of plant zombies in the world of Naruto

Dinner was tomato noodles specially made by Madara, mixed with half an egg yolk. Although there were no seasonings, the tomato flavor was quite strong and Kyojuro was very satisfied with the meal.

The tomatoes here are better than those in the Taisho period!

Don't buy one!!!

It would be better if I could eat by myself.

Kyojuro opened his mouth wide and took in the spoon that Izuna fed to his mouth.

"Kyojuro's food smells delicious. Benny, have your cooking skills improved again?"

Izuna couldn't resist the temptation and curiously tasted the broken noodles in Kyojuro's small bowl. "It tastes so bland!"

Madara quickly finished his meal, took the bowl from Izuna, and motioned him to eat quickly.

"Children have a more sensitive sense of taste. The taste of the ingredients themselves is enough for them, and also."

"what?"

"Put down the sugar bowl in your hand. I already put sugar in it when I cooked today."

"Oh."

Izuna pretended to be nonchalant and put down the sugar jar she had brought from the kitchen.

I thought I could hide it from Benny, but it seems my practice is still not good enough.

Keep it up, Izuna!

You must be able to eat candy secretly under Benny's Sharingan!

"Madara, Izuna, I'm back."

"Welcome home, Dad!"

Tajima, who finally came back from the Great Elder, touched Izuna's head as he entered the room, then glanced at the child in Madara's arms.

"The Hao family's has been delivered. What's it called?"

"Kyojuro, born on the spring equinox last year."

After washing his hands, Tajima watched Kyojuro happily finish the food in the bowl, then he picked up the child and placed his palms under the child's feet.

"You're not afraid of strangers," he weighed Kyojuro, "You eat so happily, no wonder you're so fat."

Kyojuro stepped on his palms to gain leverage and tried to straighten his back and stand up.

"You're quite strong, a solid young man," Tajima smiled as he felt Kyojuro's powerful kick.

If a child is strong, it means he is healthy, and only when he is healthy can he grow up more smoothly.

"Father, did the Great Elder say anything?"

Madara brought over the dinner and the low table that he had prepared for Tajima. Tajima sat down, put Kyojuro next to him, and reminded Madara,

"Just stay in the clan and take care of your nephew. Don't think about running away every day."

"Izunai's first mission is not dangerous. It's mainly to follow the tribe's caravan to broaden your horizons. They will set off in a week. Please tell Izunai what to pay attention to."

"Yes! Father!"

Hearing that he could really go out of the clan to carry out missions, Izuna happily hugged his father. On the contrary, Madara was a little depressed and seemed to want to say something, but in the end he said nothing.

Looking at his eldest son who was in his rebellious period, Tajima did not say much. In his opinion, the pair of Sharingan already represented Madara's determination.

Hehehe, the future is limitless!

Tajima was in a good mood and took a bite of the fish in front of him. Looking at Kyojuro's eager eyes, he picked up a piece of fish meat without bones and fed it to him.

Kyojuro chewed the fish while thinking about the information he had just received.

Although I've heard Uzui Tengen say in the past that ninja training and missions are very hard, but uncle Izuna is so young and he's already going on missions?

So how old was he when he started training?

I think I will be like this in the future...

Chew chew chew chew chew…

This fish is so delicious, I want to have another bite.

Kyojuro tugged at the corner of Tajima's clothes. Tajima glanced in the direction of Madara and confirmed that Madara was explaining the precautions to Izuna. He quickly stuffed another piece of fish into Kyojuro's mouth.

Then, he was caught by Ban.

"Father! How could you feed fish to Kyojuro!"

"I've picked out the bones before, and Kyojuro has already grown teeth, so it's okay for him to eat some fish meat."

Tajima was being stubborn. It was not like he had never raised a child before. He had raised Madara himself, and he had grown up healthy.

Everyone knows how to educate their father.

"But your taste is too strong for Kyojuro. You should be more careful."

"Got it," Tajima rubbed Kyojuro's soft hair and remembered something.

"When I was holding Kyojuro just now, I felt that he had the urge to stand up. You and Izuna should hold him less. He can stand up on his own and you don't need to help him if he falls. He doesn't need to be afraid if he falls on flat ground. After practicing a few times, he will learn how to support himself when he falls. Children who have fallen have strong bones and muscles."

"Okay, father. I'll remember that."

Tajima looked down at the small ball of Kyojuro again, and a feeling of melancholy suddenly surged in his heart. Kyojuro seemed to sense it and looked up at his uncle who was just thirty years old.

Before Kyojuro learned to speak, he always felt awkward because he couldn't speak clearly.

However, Izuna and Madara really enjoyed teaching him how to pronounce words, so he followed them around all day, repeating what they said.

But in front of Tiandao, he didn't know how to address this man... who should be his grandfather in terms of seniority.

Is that my uncle or my great-uncle?

Tiandao shook the child in his arms again, but the child still didn't say a word.

He somewhat doubted whether his cheap great-nephew was a mute.

Although being mute does not affect becoming a ninja, especially in a family like the Uchiha that relies on eye contact to communicate.

But it is always inconvenient not to be able to speak.

Tajima couldn't help but confide his doubts to his son who was cleaning up the dishes beside him.

"Why isn't Kyojuro talking? Did you hear him speak?"

Ban first put the plate in his hand into the sink, and looked at his father who was not yet old,

Her eyes clearly showed her worry that her father's brain was failing at such an early age.

Seeing his son's eyes, Tiandao realized that he was worrying too much, but he still defended himself with a stubborn statement.

"I'm just concerned about Kyojuro. He's never called me uncle."

Thinking of my cousin who passed away two years ago, that guy didn't even hear his grandson calling him grandpa before he died, so I'll hear it for him.

"Father, please realize that the name 'Grandpa Tajima Uncle' is too difficult for a child who can only pronounce one syllable. Kyojuro can only call Izuna Nana Nana right now."

Tajima insisted, "Children must talk and practice more to learn how to speak. Kyojuro must not have practiced much with Koichi, so he can only pronounce single syllables."

Madara had a strange look on his face, "...Not entirely. Kyojuro said one sentence very skillfully."

"What?"

Madara simply stood up, took something from the cupboard, and then in front of Tajima, stuffed a small piece of candy into Kyojuro's mouth.

"Five ants!" (delicious)

Ok.

From then on, Tiandao no longer worried about his nephew being a little mute, but started to worry about his nephew being too greedy. What if someone easily lured him away with delicious food?

"Father, don't worry. Kyojuro is still young."

After hearing Madara call him father once again, Kyojuro finally decided how to address the man in front of him.

Uncle Grandpa's pronunciation is too complicated, and Kyojuro has no hope for his current language ability.

Just call him grandpa!

But the person in front of me is only about 35 years old, but he is already a grandfather.

Is this a big family?

"zhi……zhi……"

"Zhizhi? What does that mean?"

Madara poked Kyojuro's bulging cheek and said, "I guess he wants to call me grandpa (jiji)"

"Really? Kyojuro knows I'm your grandpa~" Tajima rubbed Kyojuro's little hand with his forehead affectionately.

"Kyojuro is so smart, he will definitely be a great ninja in the future~"

The sound of Tajima deliberately teasing the child made Madara speechless.

Father, please pay attention to your image. You really look like a weird uncle who kidnaps children!

……

Kyojuro accepted it well, and in the past, whenever they faced Tokitoru, they would naturally soften their tone.

Well, except Tomioka.

I don’t know if Tomioka apologized to Shinobu. When he set out to slay the demon, he felt that Shinobu was still angry.

Ever since Kanae passed away, Tomioka is the only one who can make Shinobu's smile twisted...

……

After the father and son finished their conversation, they looked down at Kyojuro and found that he had fallen asleep.

The little ball leaned on Tiandao and slept soundly.

Tajima secretly found it funny, but was afraid of waking him up, so he could only wave to Madara to come over quietly and carry Kyojuro back to Izuna's room to sleep.

Izuna asked, "Father, has Kyojuro always lived with me since then?"

Tajima thought for a moment, "Kyojuro is too young, so he'll sleep with you for now, and when you go on missions, he'll stay with Madara until he's five."

"Oh," Izuna pouted unhappily, and Tajima was happy.

"Why, it's only been a few hours and you're already so close?"

Izuna didn't know how to describe his feelings, but he felt that Kyojuro was warm, obedient and smart.

"Kyojuro is cute!"

There should be no parent who doesn’t like the harmonious relationship between their children.

Anyway, Tajima couldn't do it, so he hugged his youngest son and asked him to go out for training with the newly released Madara.

I summoned the signed Ninja Cat.

With a bang, a calico cat wearing a kimono and with a short sword on its waist appeared in the living room.

"Tajima, what's going on, meow?"

Tiandao took out a small dried fish from his sleeve and handed it over, "Xiaofu, there is a new cub at home, I need you to take care of it."

The cat named Xiaofu accepted Tajima's offering, squinted his eyes and thought for a while about the newborn cubs of the Uchiha clan in the past two years, then flicked his tail.

"Okay meow~"

The calico cat, whose full name is Fukumaru and nickname is Kofuku, fooled Tajima with his usual aloof attitude. After watching him go to work with peace of mind, he immediately spread his four paws and quickly jumped to the side of Kyojuro's bed.

Humph, the treasure that Mei has hidden for so long is finally presented to Xiaofu.

It wanted to see if this cub was as good as Mei said.

Kofuku cautiously circled around Kyojuro who was sleeping soundly on the bed, lowered his head and sniffed a few times.

"Nothing special, just a milky smell."

Xiaofu's whiskers moved, and he sat upright next to Kyojuro. After looking for a while, he lay down again, with his cat body touching Kyojuro's small quilt.

It’s warm, as if it’s basking in the sun.

The snoring sound beside his ear made Kyojuro sleep even more deeply.
