Konoha: The seal art teacher of the ninja school

Umino Ikkaku has always been very concerned about the affairs of the Genin Tavern.

Recently, he has been coming to the pub every now and then to check on the renovation progress, so naturally he also knows about the opening tonight.

He was so concerned about this, not only because he found Xia Yan a store location and a construction team, and he felt an inexplicable sense of responsibility, but there was also a little unknown reason.

That is... he actually also wants to play with the ninja card...

Yes, a man's happiness is that simple.

To be honest, he has been coveting this game for a long time.

After all, this game allows players to fight side by side with those familiar Sengoku ninja heroes.

Isn't this the dream of all ninjas?

Recently, many students are wondering why Director Umino patrols the first floor every day.

In fact, it was just him taking the opportunity to spy on everyone playing cards.

After days of peeping, he has figured out the rules and gameplay of this game.

I have also simulated many battles in my mind, and even secretly cut paper to make a deck to study the routines.

As a senior Genin Cloud player, whenever he saw the little ninjas making mistakes, he wanted to rush up and grab the duel plate and fight it himself.

Although with his relationship with Xia Yan, he could borrow a duel disk at any time.

But he found that there was no suitable opponent in the school.

After all, he is no longer a student, but the dean of Umino in his thirties.

But I don’t have the face to wear a duel plate and play cards with the students.

He felt awkward even playing with Natsuhiko or Kushina.

And those teachers who were about the same age as him were all sanctimonious, thinking that this was something for children to play with, and were not interested at all.

He didn't have the shame to propose a fight with them.

So when he learned that this tavern had a ninja game machine that adults could play openly, he counted the time on his fingers every day, and finally waited until today was the opening day.

Tonight, he finished all the housework early, changed Iruka's diaper, and then got permission from his wife Kaili, and finally came to the door of the tavern.

He took a deep breath and slowly opened the door of the tavern.

As soon as he entered the door, Umino Ikkaku discovered that the layout of the tavern had completely changed from what he had seen before.

At first glance, the most eye-catching thing is naturally the high platform located in the center of the tavern.

The high platform is rectangular, about one meter high, with a podium-like machine at each end, and there are spaces around the high platform for people to stand.

Around the high platform, there are many square tables with strange shapes placed, two of them close together to form a group, with a back chair at each end.

Umino Ikkaku thought that these must be the Genin game consoles that Natsuhiko told him about.

It is said that due to the limited space in the tavern, the images projected by these game machines will be reduced.

And that high platform should be the venue for a one-on-one projected ninja showdown.

Finally, he also saw that there were some ordinary tables and chairs near the bar for people who didn't want to play cards.

Umino Ikaku finally breathed a sigh of relief when he found that the entire tavern looked decent.

The only thing he regretted was that the interior decoration of the tavern was very ordinary. It couldn't be said to be ugly, but it always felt dull and boring.

What made him even more helpless was that Xia Yan insisted on specifying this style.

The aesthetics are really worrying.

Umino couldn't help but want to propose adding a flower arrangement class to the ninja school to cultivate the students' aesthetics.

At this time Xia Yan also walked over from the bar with a smile on his face.

"I knew Ikkaku-sensei you would come tonight."

Umino Ikkaku felt that there was something in Xia Yan's words, and glared slightly: "Although I don't have a share in this tavern, I did the store, the construction team, and a lot of chores. Why don't you come over and see the results?"

"Okay, of course."

Xia Yan raised his hands in surrender. He was a little confused as to why Teacher Ikkaku had such a big reaction. Did he take some gun medicine?

And he was wrong to say that the tavern had no share of his.

In fact, Xia Yan had secretly gone to his house to find Aunt Haili behind his back and asked her to invest a small amount of money in the tavern.

He also used "Auntie, you don't want anything to happen to your husband..." as a reason to ask Aunt Umino to keep it a secret and not to tell anyone.

After all, when the tavern uses the power of the money printing machine, he and Kushina will be fine, but Ikkaku-sensei and his family can't stop so many people from coveting them.

At this time, Kushina and Matt Dai also came over and each greeted Umino Kazuo.

After the greetings, Umino Ikkaku looked around the entire tavern and began to frown.

"Why is there no one in the tavern?"

Natsuhiko had no choice but to repeat what he had said to Kushina and Mattei before.

"That's right, it's better to be steady at the beginning."

Umino Ikkaku nodded, very much in agreement with Natsuhiko's steady and steady approach.

After asking about the situation, Umino Ikkaku was also ready to get down to the main topic of the night, which was to start his first experience with the Genin card.

And Xia Yan seemed to have a tacit understanding with him, and suddenly said:

"By the way, Mr. Jiaojiao, would you like to try our hotel's signature products?"

Umino Ikkaku was secretly happy.

He was originally thinking about how to naturally bring up the idea of ​​playing ninja, but he didn't expect Xia Yan to bring it up first.

However, he remained calm on the surface, pretending to be casual and said: "I'm here now, so I'll give it a try, even though I'm not very interested in this kind of thing."

Xia Yan smiled slightly, snapped his fingers and said:

"Okay, Mr. Dai, give this gentleman a glass of green juice."

"No problem!" Matt Day ran to the bar with excitement on his face.

Umino Ikkaku: "???"

"What the hell?"

Where is my big Genin game console?

Seeing the confused look on Teacher Ikkaku's face, Xia Yan explained with a smile:

"Teacher, don't underestimate this green juice. This is Mr. Dai's ancestral secret recipe. It is mixed with 72 kinds of raw materials such as young barley leaves, sweet potato leaves, cabbage leaves, etc. It helps to restore physical strength and complement the body.

Nutrition is effective in treating insomnia, constipation, headaches, kidney deficiency and other ninja occupational diseases."

"Mr. Dai has been practicing physical skills for many years and has not damaged his body. He relies on this green juice."

"So after he contributed the secret recipe, I decided to make it the signature product of our pub."

"Kidney... Then I really have to try it - no!"

Only then did Umino Ikkaku react.

"Why do I have to drink so healthily when I come to the pub?"

"And shouldn't the signature product be the Genin game console?"

Xia Yan looked into the distance with a holy face: "I invented the ninja cards to bring smiles to everyone, so the ninja game consoles will also be provided to guests for free."

"So it has transcended the category of commodities - art! Yes, it has been elevated to an art!"

As far as your aesthetic is concerned, don’t mention art or anything like that, okay?

Seeing Natsu Yan intoxicated with himself, Umino had the expression of an old man looking at his cell phone on the subway.

If he hadn't known that Xia Yan planned to make money by selling card packs, he would have almost believed it.

At this moment, Matt Dai had also gone through seven or forty-nine steps to prepare the green juice. He happily ran over with a cup of green mysterious liquid and handed it to Umino Ikkaku with both hands.

"Is this stuff really drinkable?"

Holding the cup of green liquid, Ikkaku fell into the same meditation as Xia Yan just now.

…

After a while, I went to the restroom. A blue-faced Umino Ikkaku finally sat down in front of the Genin game console that he had longed for. He felt that it was not easy to play a game of this game.

He fumbled here and there on the table-shaped ninja game machine in front of him, but couldn't get in.

It reminded him of the wedding night.

He asked Xia Yan: "Why don't you start moving this thing?"

Huh? It seems that Haili also said this that night...

"Ikkaku-sensei, you have to inject your own chakra into the machine first."

Xia Yan patted the metal sphere at the end of the armrest of the chair and introduced: "Just put your hand on it and inject chakra."

So Ikkaku did as Xia Yan said.

After he injected chakra into the sphere, he saw an interface slowly begin to appear on the table in front of him.

[The fierce ninja card game is starting...]

[New user detected, creating account...]

[New user 005 has been created, and the intense card game has officially begun. 】

[Ding, welcome to the world of ninja cards. If you are playing for the first time, please choose your initial deck. 】

Several lines of text appeared on the interface one after another, making Umino Ikkaku half understand.

But soon, images of three card groups appeared on it, with a line of text on top.

[God of the Ninja World·Senju Hashirama Deck]

[Shura Uchiha Madara Deck of Ninja World]

[The Fantasy Third Man·Sarutobi Sasuke Card Set]

There is also a shadow of the corresponding character behind each card deck.

Now Umino Ikkaku finally understood that this was asking him to choose which deck to use at the beginning.

"Why do you have to choose? Can't you just want them all?"

He couldn't help but complain to Xia Yan.

Isn't this deliberately making things difficult for others?

Xia Yan spread his hands helplessly: "This is to prevent new players' decks from being exactly the same and too monotonous."

Of course, the more important thing is to drive away some people with obsessive-compulsive disorder who feel uncomfortable if they don't collect all the cards, and force them to explode to complete the other two decks.

After hearing this, Umino Ikkaku felt that it made sense, so he had no choice but to make a choice.

First of all, the Uchiha Madara deck can be eliminated.

Due to the interference of the power of mystery, Uchiha Madara basically has no matching cards. Although the strength of a single card is still very powerful, it has gradually fallen behind the version.

What's more important is that Umino Ikkaku is not very fond of the Uchiha clan.

The problem is the remaining two.

The first Hokage was naturally the first choice, but according to Natsuhiko's urine, Sarutobi Sasuke might be the best choice.

After all, the practicality of Sarutobi Sasuke in the Genin cards played by students is even higher than those two.

This also made Ikkaku couldn't help but sigh, this kid Natsu Yan's licking skills are actually better than his own.

After struggling for a moment, Umino Ikkaku decided to follow his inner thoughts and realize his childhood dream.

"The First Hokage, you have decided!" Umino Ikkaku shouted.

Unfortunately, the machine didn't respond.

Xia Yan said speechlessly: "Teacher, this machine is not voice-controlled. You have to click it with your hands."

Umino Ikkaku's old face turned red, and he stretched out his hand dejectedly and tapped Senju Hashirama's card deck.

Immediately, the remaining two decks on the interface disappeared, and the remaining decks began to unfold, with all forty cards displayed in front of his eyes.

Umino Ikkaku couldn't help but move forward and look at the cards he just got one by one.

"Thousand-hand tile room... Thousand-hand panel room... Strange power fist... Palm immortal technique... Bingliangwan"

He looked at the effect of each card several times before continuing to look at it, which was very rare.

But when he saw it at the end, his expression became a little weird again.

"Wait a minute, Natsuhiko, why is there no Senju Hashirama in the Senju Hashirama deck?"
