Konoha’s Thief Hand

Konoha, mission office.

Following Aoki Gennosuke out, Natsuki removed the ninja sword he was carrying and lay it on his waist like a samurai.

"Are you doing swordsmanship training?" After hesitating at the Maruko shop, planning for his shriveled wallet, Gennosuke Aoki ignored Kurano Kuroyu's gleaming look of expectation, and immediately opened the topic.

"Hey! I thought Mr. Aoki would be a treat!" Kurano Kuroyu rolled his head, shaking his head and sighing with disappointment on his face.

"It's basic training." Xia Shu sighed to the young man beside him, as if he hadn't heard it. After all, he was the one who really opened the lion's mouth last time. , One must have the basics of swordsmanship, and my swordsmanship is completely wild. Fortunately, Senior Gusuke has free guidance."

To be called a master after others, you have to call seniors in front of others. This is not what Xia Shu hides, but the request of Maru Xing Kosuke.

Xia Shu probably knew the intention, so she agreed without questioning.

"Uncle Kosuke's swordsmanship is very good, you kid is really lucky, you have to work hard!" Aoki Kennosuke showed a hint of surprise, and then smiled unchanged and patted Xia Shu's shoulder.

In the era when Sarutobi Hiruzen was still in the prime of life, Marubei Kosuke has not yet completely become the Ten Thousand Years Genin. There are many people in the village who have been in contact with him or who simply know the story.

Gennosuke Aoki is just an ordinary Konoha Chūnin, and he doesn't know the experience of Maruxing Kosuke, but based on the slightly awkward information and the previous battles, he probably guessed something.

Therefore, this sentence of encouragement is indeed extremely sincere, that is, pitying him as a teacher, but giving away the disciples one by one, it feels quite desolate.

"Well, I will, Teacher Aoki." Xia Shu looked up at the young man, keenly catching the sadness and loneliness, and said: "If you just cultivate the basics of swordsmanship, you will have to use less swordsmanship. In order to avoid lack of means, Mrs. Aoki , Teach me a few more Wind Style techniques!"

"Huh?" Aoki Kennosuke stared, and then a little amused. He shook his head and laughed while holding the young man's head, pretending to be severely reprimanded: "What do you think ninjutsu is, there are still a few! Are you planning to engage in wholesale?!"

"Then, batch?" Xia Shu blinked tentatively.

"What are you talking about!" Unhappy stare, Aoki Kennosuke waved his hand: "Disband, and gather at the gate at 1 o'clock in the afternoon after lunch, that's it!"

When the voice fell, the young man disappeared in the same place. Maybe he was already leaning against the wall and slapped his chest at this moment. Fortunately, the purse he had just raised had escaped.

"Then see you in the afternoon, Uncle Gu Jie, Xia Shu." Heiyu Hisano could see the posterior molars from the corner of his mouth. After speaking, he waved his hand and rushed out, holding his clothes pocket.

Before going to the mission office, they first received the previous mission money. This money was nothing to Xia Shu, who had little money, but it was a lot of money to Hisano Heiyu.

Watching that figure go away, Xia Shu shook his head and smiled. Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of something from the corner, and couldn't help but pause.

"Oh? Ramen?" Maruxing Kosuke glanced in surprise.

"Speaking of it, I haven't tasted it yet." Xia Shu nodded, and then retracted his gaze, looked at Maru Hoshi Kosuke, and smiled: "Master, come and eat ramen, I'll treat you!"

There is no saying in the ninja world that a master has something to do with his disciples, but Xia Shu still respects Maru Xing Kosuke, or in other words, he usually has respect for those who have done things that are difficult for him to do.

Genin, the strongest in Ten Thousand Years, is unknown to this world after all.

Therefore, Maruxoshi Kosuke's strong will to fire is really admirable.

"Welcome!" The curtain was opened, and a clear welcoming sound came.

Xia Shu looked up, the young man in white overalls had an enthusiastic look, and it was Uncle Yile's hand.

After seeing the appearance of the hand punch, Xia Shu's pupils tightened in an instant.

It's not that the opponent's eyes narrowed because of his young age, so it was a bit scary, but the opponent's "Ōtsutsuki Yi Le" name, and the appearance of squinting eyes at this moment, it really made him shudder!

"What do you want to eat, the small shop has newly launched pork bone ramen, and there are also snacks, please look at the menu." The hand said while pointing to the wall pasted on one side.

Xia Shu suppressed the panic, but the expression on her face remained unchanged. She casually ordered the signature pork bone ramen, fried chicken nuggets, white jade balls, and other snacks, and then asked Marusoshi Kosuke next to her.

"Master...senior, you are welcome," he added.

"Haha! I can't eat too much when I'm old, it's better if I don't taste too much." Maruxing Kosuke said with a smile.

Well, this big guy also squinted his eyes.

"Boss, do you have any recommendations for the light taste?" Xia Shu asked casually.

"Ramen with clear soup and bean sprouts, this is a special offer for light taste!" The voice was suppressed by the hand, and the back of the hand was blocking his mouth, as if it was a secret.

It's just that there are no other customers in the store except for Natsuki and Maru Hoshi Kosuke!

"That's it." The corner of his mouth twitched, and Xia Shu waved.

"Good!" He grinned and said with joy, akimbo joy: "Then congratulations to both of you. As the 78th and 79th customers, there are other snacks and dishes for the order in addition to the order!"

"Seventy-eight? Seventy-nine?" Xia Shu wondered: "Is this a lucky number?"

"Lucky number? No!" Shoudai scratched his head and explained: "When the shop opened, it was said that the first 100 customers can get at least three snacks, so..."

"Uh..." Xia Shu was speechless, then suddenly thought of something and asked: "Then, boss, I have a question, when did your store open?"

"Opening time?" sighed with a hand shaking his head: "It has been in business for a year, but during the war, so the business is sluggish. If it weren't for the crops in the countryside, there was still some output, and the small store would not be able to support it now."

At this point, he changed his conversation, with a smile on his face, full of hope and authenticity: "But the war is finally over, the village will soon become lively and prosperous again, and the business of the small shop will become better. !"

Ōtsutsuki may be just a legend, but the deliciousness of Ōtsutsuki ramen is real.

Xia Shu couldn't help it, and dropped the empty bowl containing the remnant soup, and shouted, "Boss, another bowl!"

"Okay!" Shou Da replied happily.

Then, before long, another hot bowl was served.

Opening the shop curtains, Natsuki hiccups, and waved goodbye to Marusoshi Kosuke.

After arriving home, while still having some time, he sat in the veranda blowing the cold wind, digesting food, and refining Chakra.

When there were more than ten minutes left, he was ready to go and rushed to the gate of the village.
