On the application of plant zombies in the world of Naruto

Kyojuro's Diary

[My name is Kyojuro, and I am currently training in immortal arts.

Accompanied by my older cousin, I immersed myself in absorbing natural energy with peace of mind.

Just because I can sense natural energy when I’m meditating doesn’t mean I can do so when I’m moving. I still have a long way to go before I can instantly enter the immortal energy state, starting from walking, and then being able to instantly enter the immortal energy state when I’m fighting.

……

Two days later, the mission was upgraded and I needed to divide my attention to chat with others while absorbing natural energy.

My training place has also become the backyard of the Senju clan’s mansion where I currently live.

The backyard is clearly divided into two parts. On the left is the eldest cousin's medicine garden, and on the right is the second cousin's workbench.

There are many plants on the left. If Xiaoyou were here, he would definitely excitedly read out all the plants in it.

There was no grass on the right side, and there were many strange tools. I could only recognize an iron forge.

On the first day, my mother and Aunt Taohua were chatting about the gossip of the Senshou family with me.

At my mother's strong request, Aunt Taohua reluctantly accepted the title of "Aunt".

While eating melon seeds, they talked about the recent happenings in the Senju tribe. In the end, I was also able to absorb natural energy while eating melon seeds.

Melon seeds are really delicious.

……

After that, I would see members of the Senju tribe coming to chat with me every day. Except for a few acquaintances who went to the teahouse that day, the others were all elderly people from the Senju tribe.

They usually sat under the eaves and watched me practice, talked about the Thousand Hands in the past (mainly the dark history of my eldest cousin and my mother), and then talked about how to use the various herbs in the medicine garden.

I glanced at the moods of the plants on the panel and admired them very much.

The Senju family is really good at growing medicinal herbs.

So many medicinal herbs are planted together, but the medicinal properties of each one are not affected. Herbs of different preferences are properly taken care of, and they complement each other beautifully.

In the evening, they would leave.

Among Uchiha, Grandpa Zhang Ren, who lived to be 84 years old, is the longest-lived person I have ever seen. He is the only Uchiha who lived to be 84, but in Senju, people in their seventies and eighties are very common.

I don’t know when Uchiha will be able to do this. 】

----------

Senju Hashirama felt complicated as he looked at Kyojuro who was concentrating on practicing fairy arts beside him.

On the one hand, he is proud of the talent of his juniors, but on the other hand, he is frightened by the fact that Kyojuro, relying on the care of his senior, indulges himself and concentrates all his energy on absorbing natural energy.

Excessive indulgence in natural energy will lead to assimilation of natural energy.

This made Senju Hashirama not dare to leave Kyojuro to practice alone, and he followed him closely.

Uchiha Madara laughed at him from a distance, "Like a mother hen."

Senju Hashirama sighed, "Madara, I finally understand the proud and nervous mentality when you mentioned Kyojuro."

Uchiha Madara smiled.

"I think it's because Tobirama Senju is too easy on the younger brother, so he can't tell which one of you two is the older brother."

"When he was little, he boasted that he would put his brother in a safe place to protect him, but when he grew up, he just pushed the difficult and troublesome work to Tobirama Senju."

Senju Hashirama narrowed his eyes and teased, "Banara, you have a good impression of Tobirama~"

"Thanks for your foil."

Seeing that Senju Hashirama's voice was getting louder and louder, Uchiha Madara made a gesture to silence him.

"Won't it bother Kyojuro if you talk so close to him?"

Senju Hashirama deliberately raised his voice again, "We need to make him accustomed to being able to sense natural energy even under interference."

"I'll chat with him on purpose in a couple of days."

Uchiha Madara raised his eyebrows, understanding Hashirama Senju's intention of asking the Senju people to find Kyojuro, and he did not stop him.

After all, no one can dislike Kyojuro, and the deepening relationship between Kyojuro and the Senju people is good for Kyojuro.

Moreover, he was confident that no matter how much more contact he had with the Senju, Uchiha would still be number one in Kyojuro's heart.

Senju Hashirama noticed Uchiha Madara's acquiescence and grinned. He knew that Madara would not stop anything that would benefit Kyojuro!

Ban is so soft-hearted towards his family!

Uchiha Madara turned his neck uncomfortably, "Do we need to get him used to sensing natural energy during battle? Then why not teach him your Senjutsu sword techniques as well?"

When it comes to the Senju's swordsmanship, Hashirama Senju's first reaction is his family's most famous large naginata. Kyojuro's current small body is not even as tall as the naginata. Madara's requirements are too strict!

Uchiha Madara was annoyed, "Your family has no other swords except the naginata."

Senju Hashirama smiled, "Oh, okay, but I saw the swordsmanship that Kyojuro used that day, it had the shadow of Uchiha, but the overall style was unique, not like your family's style."

When mentioning this, Uchiha Madara raised his chin proudly.

"It is Kyojuro's own creation of Ninjutsu and Swordsmanship. It combines Ninjutsu and Swordsmanship, and is the fighting style that best suits him."

This is also what Uchiha Madara is most proud of. When fighting with a sword, even a desperate farmer can just pick up the kitchen knife and chop a few times. But finding the fighting style that suits him best, and absorbing the advantages of the opponent in repeated battles with others, integrating it with his own style, and completely making it his own, this is a talent that only an extremely outstanding ninja can have.

There are countless people who have spent decades and fought in hundreds of battles before finding their own style. Kyojuro had this understanding at a young age, and was able to adapt the Uchiha clan's clever and cunning swordsmanship to suit his own physical fitness. How could Uchiha Madara not be proud of this?

When Hashirama Senju saw his best friend's smiling face, he knew that he was trapped in the 'Why is my child so great?' barrier again. But then again, there shouldn't be anyone who doesn't like Kyojuro.

It is truly amazing that he could create sword techniques in the style of the Senju family based on instinct.

……

Considering that it would be convenient for the Senju clan to come and chat with Kyojuro, Hashirama Senju moved Kyojuro's training ground from the forest to his own backyard after inspecting various places in the clan's territory...

His own medicine garden.

"So many herbs... so messy, you can't be using Wood Release to make them grow."

"I have carefully considered the habits of medicinal herbs."

Senju Hashirama moved out a bamboo futon from Senju Tobirama's room. The edges of each bamboo strip were polished clean and engraved with the Senju's double-headed fork family emblem.

"How is it? It looks good, doesn't it? I heard that Tobirama made it especially for Kyojuro in the future."

"Fresh and simple, it's really nice, but why doesn't Tobirama Senju send it himself?"

"Tobirama is a little shy. He has been like this since he was a child. The more he likes something, the more he wants to show that he doesn't like it."

Senju Hashirama arranged a futon so that Kyojuro could sit down and rest when he got tired. He raised his hand and gestured at his neck.

"He likes the fur collar very much, but he won't say it. He insists on emphasizing that he wears it to protect his neck."

Senju An held a small basket of red dates and spoke slowly, "Not only that, every time Hashirama and I gave him a fur collar, he would pretend to be reluctant, but in fact he would bury his face in it as soon as he returned to his room."

She held the basket forward. "Do you want to eat it? Wash it."

"Thank you, sister-in-law!"

"Thank you," Uchiha Madara also reached out and took one, "Are you here today?"

Qianshou Xing threw a date into his mouth.

"It's not me. That's not right. It's me and Momoka. Hashirama told us to chat with Kyojuro and ask him a few questions occasionally."

"I never thought that I would receive a task from the clan leader to gossip openly."

Qianju Taohua also came. It was obvious that she often went to the clan’s mansion. She followed the sound and came to the backyard, holding a bag of melon seeds in her hand.

"Hey, they're all here. Want some? Your Uchiha shop has new products, and they're limited in quantity each day."

……

After nine years, the sunflowers summoned by Kyojuro in the Uchiha clan were finally found a new use by the Uchiha - eating flower seeds.

Ordinary single-disc Sunshine Sunflowers begin to wither five years after being summoned, and hundreds of seeds will be produced in the middle of the disk. Planting these seeds can only grow ordinary sunflowers, and can no longer produce Sunshine Patches. However, in autumn, the seeds in the middle of the disk of these ordinary sunflowers are somehow larger than the seeds of the native sunflowers of the Fire Nation, and they only need to be slightly fried to emit a strange aroma. Put them in your mouth and gently tap them with your upper and lower teeth, and the melon seeds inside will enter your mouth. Chewing them for a few times will leave a lingering fragrance on your lips and teeth.

The "crunching" sound made when eating seeds is very brainwashing, and once you start eating, you can't stop.

However, because Uchiha Tajima had several ulcers in his mouth due to eating too much, he did not send a few packets to Kyojuro and Madara.

Tajima: Hiss——we can’t let Madara embarrass himself in front of the Senju.

Except for a small portion of seeds that were taken by the agricultural department for research, the rest were sent by Uchiha to shops in various places for sale.

……

Senju Momoka looked at Kyojuro walking slowly in the yard, and suddenly raised her hand and gave Senju An a stick.

"You're lying to me, aren't you?"

Qian Shou Xing followed the force to her waist, relieved most of the force, and covered her waist in a painful manner.

"How dare I? I just wanted to fool my brother, but who knows if I failed to do so."

Recalling the face of Uchiha Koichi that she had seen that day, Senju Momoka rubbed her chin.

"So that's the type you like. No wonder Sanlang has no chance. Hey, did you hear that Sanlang met a very caring and gentle woman before, but she turned around and cheated him out of all his money."

"My brother really understands him. No wonder he is only allowed to take a dozen taels of silver every time he goes out," Qian Shou Xing said, crackling melon seeds.

"You are so old, but you still believe in the scam of 'Ah, I don't want anything but you'. You might as well go gamble with that money."

"Be careful that the chief hears you and beats you up again. Is it fun to look after children? You haven't been out for more than ten days."

"My son is quite fun, but forget about Azhi, he's too noisy."

"Have you seen the spirit beast that Ah Zhi signed? It's a little bear. I don't know how he managed to get the little bear by tricking it past the mother bear."

"I guess he picked it up. It's not too bad considering his luck."

Senju An suddenly remembered that Senju Hashirama had asked her to ask Kyojuro a few questions.

"Kyojuro! Do you have a summoning beast?"

Kyojuro turned around and walked towards the two of them, "Signed, it's an owl named Maomao."

Senju Hashirama, who had been watching from the sidelines, nodded with satisfaction. Not bad. Although he was fluctuating for a moment when he opened his mouth, he immediately recovered his composure.

"An owl as a summoning beast? That's rare. Owls hide during the day and come out at night. Their calls are weird. If they appear in front of people, it might cause a commotion. It's not a good idea..." Senju Momoka wanted to analyze it rationally, but after looking at Kyojuro's little face, she changed her mind immediately.

"It's just right for a ninja. I remember that owls make no sound when they fly. Well done, Kyojuro!"

Kyojuro smiled, "Thank you, Auntie Momoka!"

……

Only on the first day were Senju An and Senju Momoka, followed by other members of the Senju clan, including many elders of the Senju family.

Uchiha Madara was too lazy to listen to these old men and women reminiscing about the past, so he simply asked Kurama to shrink his body and guard Kyojuro, while he hid in the room and began to study the strange power in the Sharingan.

I don’t know if it’s because he has been with Hashirama Senju for too long, but his Sharingan has become more and more restless recently, as if urging him to catch up with Hashirama Senju, and even better, surpass and suppress him.

This is usually what happens when the old man from the Senju family meets Kyojuro.

Senju Tobirama or Senju An brought the person over, and Kyojuro bowed politely, "Hello, grandpa/grandma."

They would either stare at Kyojuro's face with their eyes narrowed for a long time, and then say a few words of encouragement in a struggle.

Or he would reach out and touch Kyojuro's hair, sighing that such frizzy hair really is Uchiha's hair, and then saying that he is not at a disadvantage with the Senju.

All in all, their reactions to Kyojuro are usually pretty much the same: struggle - think - try to make it through - try to show goodwill - give red envelopes/gifts.

Then he sat under the eaves and watched Kyojuro train.

"This kid is much less of a worry than the one we had back then."

After hearing this kind of talk so many times, Kyojuro couldn't help but start to become curious about how naughty his cousin could have been in the past to make every Senju member who came to chat with him so emotional.

The old man from the Senju family just smiled faintly and told some interesting stories about how when Senju Hashirama was a child, he would climb trees to dig out bird nests, go to the river to catch fish, and deliberately rub mud on others, and then be caught by Senju Hashirama and beaten up at home. These stories were not painful or itchy.

The kid who ran around wildly back then has now become the pillar of the family and is about to get married and have children.

Kozuma is now an idol for the children in the family, so they won’t talk about those embarrassing things that damage his image.

If you were to ask what the Senju family is best at, it would definitely be the cultivation and use of medicinal herbs.

With the idea of ​​"making Kyojuro more like a Senju", which Uchiha Madara couldn't know, the old man of the Senju family spoke eloquently to Kyojuro about the herbs in the medicine garden.
