Kyojuro, the life of a Hokage since the age of one

Hao Yi is going on a mission again.

Although I had gone on several missions before, they were all short-term and I came back in about ten days.

This time, at the strong request of the Third Elder, he wanted to go to the Kingdom of Iron with the people from the Weapons Department, not only to purchase raw materials, but also to negotiate with the suppliers there for weapons orders for the next year.

It is estimated that it will take two or three months to come back.

Hao Yi knelt down, looked into Anjuro's eyes and asked, "Does Anjuro want anything?"

Anjuro thought for a while, if the Kingdom of Iron was a country of samurai and swords,

"Dad, I want a knife, the kind that can carry power."

I don’t know if there are orangutans in this world.

"Hmm... I want a sword that can carry chakra. If dad knows about it, he will bring it back to Anjurou."

Xing Jurou is so considerate. He knew that he was going to the Iron Kingdom this time, so he specifically thought about gifts that he could get directly from the Iron Kingdom.

I decided to buy the Ninja Iron from the Land of Iron and ask the master to help build it.

Haoyi reached out and rubbed his son's hair, then hugged him reluctantly.

"I'm leaving!"

"Goodbye, dad! Come back safely!"

…

Dad is gone.

The little uncle hasn't come back yet.

Uncle Madara recently received an investigation mission, saying that traces of huge beasts had been found in the Land of Fire. Although the farmland was not trampled, the nearby farmers were always worried. The city lord has entrusted Uchiha with him, and he is expected to come back next week.

Anjuro is a bit bored.

He looked towards the yard, only to find that a little Uchiha's head suddenly poked out from the wall of his yard.

"Ayou? What are you doing?"

After being discovered, Uchiha Yu held the wall with one hand and waved his arm hard towards Anjurou.

"Anjuro Anjuro, let's go exploring in the forest!"

"Okay," Xingjuro quickly wrote a note explaining where he wanted to go, then placed it on the table in the living room and walked towards the door.

Ayou lowered his head and reported to his companions,

"Xingjulang agreed!"

“Yeah!!!”

"Come down quickly, I can't hold it anymore!"

"You are still not a ninja, can't you support this weight?"

"Obviously Ayou, you are too heavy! Every time Xingjuro brings snacks, you eat the most!"

"Ouch!"

When Anjuro walked out of the yard, what he saw was the Uchiha dumplings that had fallen to the ground.

"Yu! Xiaoxue! Jin!"

He hurriedly ran over, helped each of them up, and patted the dust on their clothes.

"Does it hurt from the fall? Do you want to go to the medicine hall?"

Uchiha Jin jumped on the spot a few times to show that he was intact.

"Xingjuro, I'm fine, this height is nothing for a man!"

"Because you are at the bottom."

Uchiha Yu complained while rubbing his butt.

"That doesn't matter!"

Yuki Uchiha took Anjurou's arm and raised his other hand high.

"Everyone is here, let's go!"

"oh!"

After several people followed Uchiha Snow for a few steps, Jin suddenly asked,

"Where are we going?"

"The forest next to the training ground in the east."

"Then it's still within the clan, boring."

"Humph, it's too early to speak."

After several people walked into the forest, Uchiha Snow suddenly lowered his voice.

"I heard from my mother that things haven't been peaceful here lately."

"Why...why is it not peaceful?"

Uchiha Jin's voice trembled, but he still asked forcefully.

Uchiha Yu stood next to Anjuro silently and gently pulled Anjuro's sleeves.

“It’s just haunted!!”

For a moment, it seemed as if even the sunlight had disappeared, and the silence in the forest was terrifying.

Plop la la——

“!!!!!!”

A group of birds suddenly flew up, and the sound of flapping wings startled several children.

After Uchiha Yuki stabilized his emotions, he continued to talk about the legend he heard from his mother.

"It is said that someone in the clan has seen someone suddenly appear at night and stare at you. No matter where you go, those eyes will always stare at you."

"Yellow, so big!"

"There are also weird screams coming from nowhere, like wind passing through the gates of hell."

Jin Momo moved a little closer to Xingshou Lang's direction.

"The scariest thing is that when there is no one around, not even a sound, suddenly! Your shoulder is touched."

"ah!!!"

Jin instantly ejected and jumped directly behind Xingshou Lang, firmly holding on to the hem of Xingshou Lang's clothes and refusing to let go.

"Kim, it's me."

Yu raised his hand innocently.

"Hahahahahaha, Ajin is a coward!"

"Yu! Snow! You two!"

"boo——boo——uoo————"

! ! ! !

"Ah! What is that sound!"

"Shhh!!"

Four people immediately gathered, one person facing in one direction to listen.

"boo——boo——uoo——"

"This way!"

The four of them maintained their formation and moved cautiously. Anjuro thought about the cry he just heard.

It should be that one.

The sound is getting closer,

"Everyone, let's watch our steps carefully. That thing should be under the tree."

"boo----"

"Found it!"

"What what!"

"So ugly! What is this?"

Anshouro carefully picked up the small gray thing on the ground and happily showed it to his friends.

"This is an owl's baby!"

"It must have fallen from some bird's nest."

Yu looked up at the nearest tree and saw no trace of the bird's nest.

It has short wings, a pointed beak, messy down, eyes that are too huge compared to its head, and it is even standing!

Xue curled her lips in disgust, "What a weird look, Xingjuro, do you really want to keep holding...this thing?"

Yu thought of something, "Xingjuro, we don't have an owl in the Fire Country. Could it have been brought here from the north by someone?"

"If this is the case, then you need to tell the clan leader quickly!"

Jin instantly thought of the story his grandmother told him when he was a child, "A stranger came into our clan and stole the child!"

"But Grandpa Uncle is not in the clan now, let's go tell Aunt Su."

…

After listening to some immature but clear reports from several children, Uchiha Su first severely criticized a few of them, and then gave one of them a gold cube as a reward.

"Although it is highly undesirable for you to go into the woods without an adult accompanying you, you were able to distinguish the owl cubs, realize that owls are not a species from the Land of Fire, and quickly report back after noticing something unusual... …”

Uchiha Su paused deliberately, then touched each child happily,

“Well done~”

"You all remember the stories Grandma Keiko told me. It's great!"

Several young Uchihas looked at each other, and Jin and Anjuro immediately laughed. Yu pursed his lips in embarrassment, but Su discovered that he actually had dimples.

Snow Uchiha was still asking persistently, "Auntie, auntie, you haven't said where this ugly cub came from!"

"It was sent from the Kingdom of Thunder. They originally sent a pair of owls, and they wanted to ask us to train them to see if they could be trained into ninja beasts that deliver messages at night. But the training was almost done. The big owls are here The eggs were laid and hatched here, and the hatched cubs couldn't stand the temperature in the Land of Fire, so we notified the other side to take back the big owl and the little cubs."

"This little guy probably accidentally dug out of the nest the day before he was picked up, and ended up being left here."

Uchiha pointed at one of the wings of the little owl, "Look, its wings have signs of being broken."

Yu asked, "But I didn't see any bird's nest on the tree."

"That's because owls don't build their own nests. If there's no existing nest for them to live in, they'll live in tree cavities."

Xingshou Lang frowned, "Auntie, can it be cured?"

Uchiha Sou replied, "Do you want to raise Anjuro?"

Do you want to raise it?

Xingjuro understood what Uchiha Sou meant. Medical resources were precious no matter where they were. Did he really want to spend precious resources on an owl that he didn’t know if he could grow up or if he could use it for himself when he grew up? ?

To put it another way,

If he could find value in the owl, it should be allowed to be treated.

What are the advantages of owls?

Hearing is extremely good. If a ninja chooses an owl as a psychic beast, it will be of great help in obtaining intelligence, better than other birds in the contract.

He remembered that in his previous life, Western researchers said that owls can fly silently, have a wider field of vision than ordinary birds, and have strong dynamic vision. They are a very advantageous bird at night.

Compared to ordinary birds, owls that can move undetected at night should be more suitable for ninjas hiding in the dark.

If he must contract a certain bird as a psychic beast, among all the birds that cannot speak, the owl should be the best choice.

Xingjuro firmed up his thoughts and looked at Uchiha Su,

"I want to raise it."

"What about the ninja beast training later?"

"I will learn from my uncles in the clan."

Uchiha knew that Anjuro had already considered the difficulties he would face in the future, so he relaxed.

"Go find the guy at the medicine hall. Maybe the oriental sunflower will be enough to cure this lucky little guy."

The three young Uchihas sitting in a row eating snacks tilted their heads in confusion.

“Can sunflowers heal?”

Yu didn't remember that in the encyclopedia of medical plants his grandfather gave him, there was an article about sunflowers being able to treat fractures.

"I don't know, Jin, did your grandfather tell you?"

Snow has no idea about plants.

"No."

Jin was not interested at all in the herbs his grandfather talked about. He preferred to go to Uncle Huo Feng's place to play.

"Then why does my aunt say that sunflowers can cure ugly things?"

————

A month later, after completing her first long-term garrison mission, Quan Nai finally took off her women's clothes and changed back into her ethnic uniform.

When he went back, he also brought his shamisen with him, preparing to go back and show off his skills to Brother Madara and Anjuro.

It's a pity that Brother Haoyi went out and missed my exquisite performance.

While thinking about it, Quan Nai opened the door of her house.

"Wow! What is this!"

Quan Nai, who had just entered the house, was successfully surprised by the new member of the family.

The owl standing on the door frame and tilting its head back to observe Izuna was also startled, and hurriedly flapped its wings and flew into the house to find its owner.

"Oh, it's Izuna, welcome back! Have you seen Maomao?"

Ban, who was still wondering why the owl named Maomao by Kyojuro suddenly flew into the house, looked up and suddenly saw himself for a long time - not a long time, every time he went on a mission, he would forcefully go to the flower street to see, so the two brothers had only not seen each other for fifteen days - the younger brother he had not seen.

He immediately gave Izuna a hug full of brotherly love.

"Maomao? That ugly thing actually has such a cute name?!!!"

It's not surprising that Izuna dislikes Maomao's ugly appearance now.

It's mainly because of the awkward period of sub-adult owls...

Long legs, long face, long body, and small head.

There is also a circle of puffy hair around the head, which is completely disconnected from the hair on the face, and it looks like a bald monkey.

"Brother Madara, you just let Kyojuro raise it? It's so ugly! There are so many beautiful kittens at the cat lady's place, and there are handsome ninja hawks and crows at home. Why is Kyojuro so careless to raise such a thing!!"

Izuna, who has seen too many obvious differences in beauty and ugliness in the flower street, found that he could not tolerate ugly things at all.

Uchiha Madara had seen the two big owls, and he thought they were quite cute.

"It's just the awkward period of animals. Do you want to wait another two weeks to see?"

"Besides, Kyojuro rarely said that he wanted to raise this..."

Uchiha Madara looked at Izuna with a look of "Are you willing to make such a good Kyojuro sad?"

Izuna covered her eyes with one hand, and three seconds later,

"Kyojuro! Uncle heard that you raised a summoning beast~ Wow! So cute!"

Well, worthy of being someone who has studied in the flower street!

...

Two weeks later.

Izuna had to admit that Brother Madara was right.

It's really cute!

What's going on!

What's with those two tufts of feathers on his head!

He even hops when he walks!

"Brother, brother, brother, brother! Do you feel that way?"

"You think so too, don't you?"

"So cute!"

Kyojuro's owl looks just like Kyojuro!

(What Kyojuro picked up was a hairy-legged fishing owl cub. This type of owl has two tufts of hair on its forehead, but not the two feathers of the familiar eagle owl. The information is from Baidu Encyclopedia. If anyone finds any errors, please help point them out and I will modify them later.

In an artificial breeding environment, it is difficult to determine whether the food is in line with the owl's taste, and it is difficult to safely deliver food to the owl's mouth. More commonly, when carefully processed food is delivered to the owl's mouth, they will ignore it and may die of dehydration after a few days. Kyojuro was able to raise the owl cub only because his elder brother was gifted.

Note! It is illegal to raise owls privately in our country! You must obtain relevant certificates to prove that you are qualified to raise owls before you can raise them! It's just possible!)
