Naruto hodgepodge

Chapter 33: The Manuscript Was Replaced

Twenty-eight beauties have a body as soft as a stick, and a sword at their waists to kill the foolish man.

Although you don’t see the head falling off, your bones will dry up secretly. . .

After returning home, Naruto began to write the Ninja version of Jin Ping Mei - Feng Yue Bao Jian. This novel is set in the Warring States Period of the Ninja World. It borrows many destroyed countries in the history of the Ninja World, such as Zuzhiguo, to metaphorically represent reality, and tells the story of Ximen Da She and Dongfang Jin Lian. The novel depicts the trinity of the evil ninja leader Ximen Da She, a wealthy businessman, and a local bully. He colluded with the daimyo to bully the people, especially women, in the territory, showing his various evil deeds. At the same time, it deeply depicts the intrigues, mutual framing, and power struggles among the wife, four concubines, and maids in the leader's family, revealing the injustice and absurdity of the feudal family system and marriage system, as well as the hopelessness of this group of people who are addicted to power and pleasure.

In terms of artistic expression, Naruto adopts a delicate writing style, not only outlining the life status of the characters from the trivialities of daily life, but also deeply analyzing their inner world through the interests between the characters, pursuing objective and true artistic effects, which can be regarded as a pioneer of ninja-themed novels. In the novel, the characters such as the ninja leader, the female ninja Dongfang Jinlian, the wise man Count of Monte Cristo, and the leader's wife Yue Niang are vivid and distinctive.

In addition, the novel has a grand yet well-organized structure and a clever layout; the language style is neat and full of tension. In addition to using a large number of dialects and slangs of the time, it also incorporates many proverbs from the ninja world, making the text vivid and lively. The poems and songs interspersed in it are exquisite and contain rich miscellaneous knowledge, and there are also a lot of plots that are not suitable for children.

Naruto's life gradually stabilized. He would get up early every morning to practice chakra with Shisui. At noon, he would go home and start writing books. In the afternoon, he would wait for Sakura to return from her stall, and then use the items she bought to make toys, accessories and other handicrafts. Soon, he was about to achieve his small goal of earning one million. At this time, his second masterpiece "Ninja World Jin Ping Mei - Feng Yue Bao Jian" was also successfully completed.

In the early morning of Konoha Village, the sun shines through the sparse clouds and shines on the quiet streets, adding a bit of vitality to this quiet ninja village. To the east of the village, there are three adjacent mansions, belonging to the three major families of Yamanaka, Nara, and Akimichi. Today is a special day for the younger generations of these three families - they are about to start formal ninja training under the guidance of their fathers.

Yamanaka Ino's father, Yamanaka Inoichi, is an experienced perception-type ninja who is good at reading other people's minds; Nara Shikamaru's father, Nara Shikaku, is a jonin of Konoha Village, known for his outstanding wisdom and strategic vision; and Akimichi Choji's father, Akimichi Choza, is a power-type ninja with amazing physical strength and ninjutsu. At Yamanaka Inoichi's request last night, these three fathers decided to train their children together, hoping that they can inherit and carry forward the traditional combination skills of Ino, Shika and Chou.

【Mountain Residence】

"Ino, are you ready?" Yamanaka Inoichi stood in the middle of the living room, looking at his daughter who was packing her equipment with gentle eyes.

"Yes, father! I can't wait!" Ino responded excitedly, her eyes flashing with desire for unknown challenges.

"Very good. Remember, as a member of the Yamanaka clan, our strength comes from the mastery of information and the understanding of people's hearts. Today, in addition to the basic training of chakra, I will teach you how to perceive the emotional fluctuations of others more deeply. This is the first step to becoming an excellent ninja." Hai said earnestly.

【Nara Residence】

At the same time, in the courtyard of the Nara mansion, Shikamaru was sitting leisurely, flipping through a book on military tactics in his hands, and his face did not seem to have much enthusiasm for the upcoming training.

"Shikamaru, it's time to go." Shikaku walked into the yard and saw his son's calm appearance, which made him smile.

"Oh, I see. Why so early, Dad? Didn't we agree to wait until the ninja school starts before we start formal training?" Shikamaru closed the book and stood up. Although he seemed indifferent on the surface, deep down he was looking forward to the strategic wisdom that his father was about to impart.

"It was your friend Ino who suggested it. She wanted us to start early. After all, you are going to be the captain of the new generation Ino-Shika-Chou duo," Shikaku explained, walking into the yard and standing next to Shikamaru.

"I know, Dad. Women are really troublesome." Shikamaru muttered softly, but his eyes revealed a hint of helplessness and pampering.

"Today, I will teach you how to formulate strategies in battle and how to achieve the greatest victory with the least cost. Remember, wisdom is the weapon of our Nara clan." Shikaku's words were full of expectations and pride for his son.

【Akimichi Residence】

Meanwhile, at the Akimichi residence, Choji was eating breakfast in big mouthfuls to reserve energy for the upcoming training.

"Shikada, stop eating. It's time to go to training." Shikada walked into the kitchen and looked at his son's chubby figure, feeling helpless and loving.

"But, father, I'm hungry!" said Shikamaru aggrievedly.

"Haha, okay, eat a little more. But remember, as a member of the Akimichi clan, our strength does not only come from food. What's more important is how to turn this strength into an advantage in battle. Today, I will teach you how to use your chakra and physical skills more effectively." Choza patted Choji's shoulder and encouraged him.

【Training Ground Gathering】

Not long after, Ino, Shikamaru, and Choji gathered at the training ground of Konoha Village, with their fathers standing by, ready to start today's training.

"Hey, Ino, are you ready for rigorous training?" Haiyi walked up to Ino and asked with a gentle smile.

"Of course, Father! I can't wait to start!" Ino's eyes were gleaming with excitement. After being bullied yesterday, she had an aura of hard work.

"Shikamaru, what about you? Are you ready?" Shikaku was setting up the battlefield on the side. He turned to look at Shikamaru, his eyes full of anticipation.

"Hey, I'll do my best, Dad." Although Shikamaru said this, his eyes revealed his anticipation for the tactical training that was about to begin.

"Chouji, what about you? Are you ready to learn how to control your chakra?" Choza patted Choji's shoulder and asked with a smile.

"Yes, father! I want to protect my friend!" Choji clenched his fists and looked at Shikamaru beside him.

"Very good, kids. Before we start learning our respective family secrets, let's first do some basic chakra training." Haiyi said seriously, "No matter what ninjutsu you learn, you need a solid chakra foundation."

So, the three fathers began to guide the children in basic chakra practice, teaching them how to breathe and meditate correctly, and how to convert the energy in the body into chakras.

Because they had already laid the foundation, after a period of training, the three gradually mastered the basic use of chakra. Then, the three fathers began to teach their respective family secrets, and the original 10th team also started training half a year in advance.

A month later, Naruto persisted in practicing chakra for a month. Today, Shisui also taught Naruto his first ninjutsu, the transformation jutsu.

Shisui stood before Naruto, ready to reveal to him the secret of the transformation jutsu.

"Naruto, do you know what the core of transformation technique is?" Shisui asked with a smile.

Naruto scratched his head, a little confused. No one taught him, and the notes of his grandfather were all about attribute ninjutsu. So he said, "Is it like a magic trick, where you just wave your hand and it changes?"

Shisui shook his head, a hint of depth flashed in his eyes: "Transformation jutsu is not a simple magic. It uses mental concentration and chakra manipulation to change the form of our body. Our body is composed of countless tiny particles, which are arranged and combined in space to form our form. Transformation jutsu is to manipulate these particles and change their arrangement to achieve the purpose of shape change."

Naruto's eyes widened, he had never thought that the transformation technique would have such a profound principle. Even the strongest transformation master in the original work seemed not to understand the principle.

"Come, let me show you first." Shisui said, quickly forming seals with his hands and silently chanting a spell. His body gradually became blurry, as if wrapped in a veil. After a moment, he became clear again, but his appearance had changed subtly, and even his voice became a little different.

"Wow! This is amazing!" Naruto exclaimed.

Shisui smiled and cancelled the transformation technique, returning to his original appearance: "Now, I will teach you how to control the flow of chakra."

He patiently taught Naruto how to control chakra and form hand seals. Although Naruto was a little clumsy at first, under Shisui's careful teaching, he gradually mastered these basic skills.

"Okay, now you try it," Shisui encouraged.

Naruto took a deep breath, formed seals with his hands, and silently chanted a spell. He felt the chakra in his body surge, as if a force was pushing his body to change. But at first, he could only make his fingers a little longer or his face a little redder.

"Don't lose heart, Naruto. Transformation techniques take time and practice to master," Shisui consoled, "Remember, every failure is a step towards success."

With Shisui's encouragement, Naruto continued to practice. He kept trying, failing, and trying again. After each failure, he would carefully summarize the reasons and adjust his chakra control and will concentration.

Finally, during one practice, he succeeded in making a significant change in his body. He became a completely different person, even his voice and temperament became completely different.

"I did it! I succeeded!" Naruto shouted excitedly, his face filled with irrepressible joy.

Shisui smiled and nodded, a glint of approval in his eyes, "Yes, you did it, Naruto. I didn't expect you to have such a high talent for learning ninjutsu. It's a pleasant surprise that you have already mastered the basic techniques of transformation."

Naruto's eyes lit up when he heard that, and he asked curiously, "Brother Shisui, you said I was a genius in learning ninjutsu? It took me a whole morning to learn it, how long did it take you to learn the transformation technique?"

Shisui looked at Naruto's expectant eyes and smiled bitterly. He didn't want to undermine Naruto's self-confidence, so he smiled and said, "In fact, it took me about the same amount of time. Everyone learns ninjutsu at different speeds. What's important is that you have mastered the skills and are willing to keep working hard and exploring."

He did not tell Naruto that he possessed the Sharingan, which allowed him to easily copy other people's seals and chakra operations, thereby quickly learning various ninjutsu. It was only because Naruto's unlocked memories were not enough, otherwise he would have been embarrassed and tapped his toes.

After the training, Naruto and Shisui walked out of the training ground side by side. Naruto, who had learned a ninjutsu, felt particularly happy.

"Brother Shisui, to celebrate me learning the transformation jutsu, let's go to Ichiraku Ramen for a meal today! I'll treat you! Don't worry, I'm very rich," Naruto said generously, patting his little frog.

Shisui smiled slightly, looking at Naruto's energetic face, he felt relieved in his heart. "Well, Naruto, I didn't expect you are still rich."

The two came to Ichiraku Ramen, ordered a few bowls of hot ramen, and ate and chatted, the atmosphere was particularly harmonious. Naruto talked about his future plans nonstop, he planned to rent a shop from his grandfather in the evening and open a small shop of his own. He also said that when he made a lot of money and opened a branch in the future, he would definitely recruit Shisui to be the store manager.

Shisui listened to Naruto's bold words and a smile appeared on his face. He actually took Naruto's words as a joke.

"Okay, Naruto, I'm looking forward to that day. However, you still have to complete your training mission and constantly improve your strength. This is the task I have taken on." Shisui's words were full of expectations and encouragement.

Naruto heard this, "Don't worry, Brother Shisui, I promise to let you complete the task!"

The two smiled at each other and continued to eat.

After they parted, Naruto returned home. In the afternoon, Naruto proofread the manuscript of the Ninja World version of "Jin Ping Mei". He carefully reviewed every line of words, made revisions and annotations from time to time, and time seemed to pass quietly under his focused gaze. When he finished proofreading the last page of the manuscript, the sunlight outside the window had already slanted into the house, coating the entire room with a layer of warm golden light. At this time, the school bell of the Ninja School also came from afar, reminding him that the new day was about to end.

Naruto closed the manuscript with satisfaction, and a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. The best-selling number one is yours. Before leaving, he remembered the transformation technique he had just learned in the morning, and he couldn't help but feel excited. A cute girl with golden ponytails came to life, and he couldn't help but smile. He decided to go to the publishing house to hand in the manuscript first, and then go to the Third Hokage to discuss renting a shop.

He hurried out of the house, his steps brisk and powerful, and ran along the street. When he passed by the Ninja School, he was running too fast and was about to bump into a young man in white clothes.

The young man reacted very quickly and dodged Naruto's attack with a clever dodge. However, in the process of dodging, his book and Naruto's manuscript book were accidentally knocked off. Naruto was anxious and quickly apologized and picked up his manuscript book. He glanced at the young man in white and found that the other party was looking at him in confusion, but he didn't care about that anymore and disappeared quickly like a gust of wind.

The white guy also quickly picked up his book, but he stood there in a daze. He muttered: "Such a nervous girl, but she is very cute!" However, he did not notice that in the process of picking up the books, their books had actually been swapped. Naruto continued to run to the publishing house with the book that the boy had sent from the Ninja School, while the white guy returned home with Naruto's manuscript book.
