Hokage: What Should I Do If I’m Not A Genius?

After a night's rest and replenishing their energy, Taiyi and the others set off on the road again. It took another half a day to finally arrive at the mission location, Yubaba Village.

Taichi and the others stood at the entrance of Yubaba Village, looking at the mist-filled village.

Kakashi said: "We're here. The mission client is here. Let's go in first and ask for information about the bandits."

"Hmm"×2

After last night's conversation, Deer Man got a lot closer to Taichi and Kakashi. Although he didn't know why Taichi and Kakashi supported him, Deer Man had to cherish every bit of power if he wanted to subvert the ancient system of the Hyuga clan.

Maybe the three of them are still weak now, but one day they will grow up enough to cope with everything. Looking at the backs of Taichi and Kakashi, Luxin firmly believes in them.

Walking into Yubaba Village, there were very few people on the street, and few shops around were open.

"It seems that the bandits around here are very serious and have seriously affected the lives of the villagers."

Kakashi looked at the depressed scene in front of him and sighed.

Shikato agreed with Kakashi's words, but the top priority was to deal with the bandits first: "Let's find the mission client first. As long as the bandits are eliminated, Yubaba Village will return to its former life."

Kakashi nodded, and the three of them started to find someone to ask about Yubaba, who was the client of this mission.

After revealing their identities as Konoha Shinobi, the trio quickly obtained Yubaba's address.

…

In front of a hot spring house called "Yubaba".

"This is it."

Taiyi and the others looked at each other and entered one after another.

The hot spring house was deserted, with no guests, and only a charming proprietress sitting in front of the reception desk.

The landlady raised her head and glanced at the three of them, then stood up excitedly and asked them:

"You are Konoha ninjas?!"

Kakashi nodded: "Yes, we are indeed ninjas from Konoha. Is Yubaba here?"

The landlady immediately walked up to Kakashi from behind the reception desk and said:

"I am Yubaba."

"ah?"

Taiyi looked at the landlady in front of him with some surprise. The landlady looked to be in her thirties at most, and she didn't look like a mother-in-law.

Seemingly satisfied with Taichi's surprise, Yubaba covered her mouth and chuckled.

"What I like most is seeing people's surprised expressions when they know that I am Yubaba. That gives me a great sense of accomplishment."

In the confused eyes of the three people, Granny Yu continued to explain:

"Yubaba is actually just a title. The owner of the best hot spring house in Yubaba Village is called Yubaba. Just like a famous name, Yubaba is just a title."

After Granny Yu's explanation, the three of them finally understood that the next step was about the mission.

"Baba Yu, we are here to receive your entrustment this time, but since your entrustment information is not detailed, we need to understand the contents of the entrustment."

After hearing Kakashi's words, Yubaba's smiling expression disappeared and was replaced by a solemn expression.

"Come in and tell us more."

Taiyi and the others followed Granny Tang to a room. Granny Tang handed them tea and then spoke slowly.

"The matter about bandits actually starts a long time ago..."

It turns out that Yubaba Village was already very famous during the Sengoku period. At that time, Yubaba Village was much more prosperous than it is now. People from all major families would come here to soak in the hot springs and drink wine. It was said to be the entertainment center of the ninja world. Not an exaggeration.

However, the good times did not last long. Two ninja wars brought heavy damage to the country of Yu. The village of Yu Ninja was destroyed. The country of Yu lost the ability to fight and could only vigorously develop the entertainment industry. Yubaba Village also lost its ability to fight. Under the protection of Shinobu, the grand occasion of the past no longer exists.

Although it is no longer grand, the hot springs in Yubaba Village are still famous, and the survival of the villagers is guaranteed. The ninjas who come here usually come here to relax and rarely fight.

Until one day, a group of bandits occupied the spring water on Yubaba Mountain. This caused the hot springs in Yubaba Village to lose their former efficacy. There were fewer and fewer tourists coming, and Yubaba Village became what it is now.

After Yubaba finished speaking, she bowed to Taiyi and the others.

"I hope that the three of them can help Yubaba Village eradicate bandits. Yubaba Village will remember the feats of the three of them!"

Taiyi and the other three looked at each other, each seeing confusion in the other's eyes.

Why is your hot spring business related to the spring water on the mountain? What are the special effects of hot springs?

Taiyi took the initiative to clarify the doubts.

Granny Yu hesitated for a while, but still chose to tell the truth.

"How old do you think I am now?"

Taiyi looked at Yubaba who still had charm in front of him.

"More than thirty?"

Granny Tang shook her head and said:

"Actually, I'm sixty-seven years old."

"Ah!?!"×3

Taiyi and the other three were all shocked.

this? ! Taichi did not sense Chakra in Yubaba, which ruled out the possibility of Yubaba practicing Hundred Healings Mark, not to mention the Hundred Healings Mark Konoha's Forbidden Technique, which no one except Tsunade has mastered at this stage.

And no matter in terms of body shape or age, this Yubaba cannot be Tsunade, so the most likely thing that makes Yubaba so young is the hot spring with special effects.

Granny Yu didn't surprise the three of them for too long, and then explained:

"I am still so young at such an old age, all because of the hot springs in Yubaba Village and the spring water on Yubaba Mountain. The two, in a specific ratio, can delay aging, strengthen the body, and quickly restore Chakra to ninjas. "

Yubaba bowed down again.

"Please ask three people who can eradicate the bandits and restore Yubaba Village to its past life!"

Kakashi stepped forward to help Yubaba and said that he would definitely help.

Yubaba was overjoyed, and immediately told the three people about the situation of the bandits on Yubaba Mountain, and said that as long as the bandits could be eradicated, the reward was not a problem at all. In addition to the mission reward, Yubaba also had an extra thank you gift.

Declining Yubaba's invitation to have dinner, Kakashi said that he would complete the task as soon as possible. Following the direction indicated by Yubaba, Taichi and the others set off towards Yubaba Mountain.

After Taiyi and the others left, a sneer appeared on Yubaba's face, and then a figure wearing a black robe appeared behind Yubaba.

The hoarse voice of the man in black came out.

"Can these three brats do it?"

Granny Tang said nonchalantly:

"It doesn't matter, it's best to die. If they die in Yubaba Mountain, then do you think Konoha will send more advanced ninjas? There is a brat from the Hyuga family among these three people. If he dies here, Hyuga This clan will not give up! All we need to do is sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight!"

The man in black robe began to flatter him.

"Your wisdom is amazing!"

Granny Tang glanced at the man in black robe with disgust.

"That's why you are stupid! Stop flattering us here! Do what you should do!"

"yes!"

The man in black robe disappeared from the spot.
