Ninja Ice House

To be honest, when eating barbecue at home, the ventilation and exhaust are poor, and the smell is probably unbearable to most people.

Fortunately, the apartment where Shuimu lives is quite spacious, and there are two mechanical exhaust fans installed in the room, and special anthracite is used, so it is actually not bad.

"At this time, being outside while admiring the cherry blossoms, having a barbecue, and drinking a glass of wine is the ultimate happiness in the world."

Gushan Bushui said with a smile,

"There are also many cherry blossom forests near Konoha Village. I think there are still many tourists stopping to watch them."

"Then it would be interesting to ask a few girls to go together. Now..."

Umino Yinluka smiled and shook his head slightly.

Among the three people present, only Gusugi Bosui's female popularity was slightly better. Mizuki was about to get married and start a family, and Umino Yinluka himself was a single man who had enough to eat for one person and no worries for the whole family.

If Gu Shan Bu Shui makes an appointment, then it won't be Shuimu and Yin Luka who are the hosts.

What's more, if Gushan Bushui really invites many girls to the date, is it still a man's pre-wedding party?

Wouldn't that turn into a Shura field?

Although no one had ever made a loud noise about the grievances between Major Governor Furusugi, Yuhihi Kurenai and Sarutobi Asuma, it was almost spread among people who knew each other.

Moreover, there were not just one or two people in Konoha Village who expressed their love to Furugi Bosui overtly or covertly. Even Umino Yinruka, who was almost blind, almost realized it.

"The best natural landscapes are all under my control. If you tell me in advance, you can prepare."

Mizuki smiled and responded:

"Isn't that troublesome to Master Bu Shui for no reason? That's okay. You can try my skills. Speaking of which, when I was in the orphanage, there were few meat and fish dishes. I just relied on catching small animals with one hand, and my outdoor barbecue skills were excellent.

My ability attracted everyone's attention, and Xiaochun was also attracted to me at that time..."

"These days, the days when you could cheat a good wife with just a few barbecues are gone forever. Mizuki, you've caught up with the good times."

"Senior Bu Shui, there are rare times when he is arrogant, and he can even enjoy a drinking party like ours."

"well enough!"

Gu Shanbu Shui took the wine glass handed over by Umino Yinluka and took a sip. He felt that the taste was okay, and the fragrance of the rice wine was quite sufficient.

"It's not a formal occasion, so how can there be so many rules? However, sometimes I can be quite strict. I have been in a high position for a long time, so I still need to have the necessary dignity. You are not my subordinates, so there is no need to care too much."

"That's great. No wonder someone like you... would come to our Konoha Village Ninja School. After decades, not many nobles can look up to them..."

Umino Yinluka said with great emotion.

In the early years, the attitude of the great nobles of the Fire Country towards ninjas and ninjutsu was generally that "exotic skills are useless, but they are embarrassingly useful". The way of governing the country and the people, and the ninja village method is really not enough. Managing a village is not enough.

It's okay for a town, but it's not good enough when used on a large country with a vast territory.

It is the same principle as the previous life's "conquer the world immediately, but cannot rule the world immediately".

However, in recent years, major ninja villages, including Konoha Village, have generally tended to pursue spiritual satisfaction, such as the will of fire, the will of stone, etc. This has also made the rulers of major countries realize

You see, ninjas are not just reckless men who only know how to fight and kill.

Even so, there are very few nobles with great names like Kosugi Fusui who attended a ninja school since childhood and wanted to become a ninja.

Although it didn't work out in the end, Master Bu Shui changed hands and sent his biological daughter over, which really shocked people.

"Senior Bu Shui's daughter Xiang Rin is really a rare genius in recent years. Geniuses like Uchiha Sasuke only narrowed the gap after opening the Sharingan. The family is rich and good-looking.

No matter how talented he is, he still works so hard. Children from ordinary families are far behind."

Having had close contact with them, Umino Yinluka naturally understands that the future achievements of the same students are very different. Even if he is very optimistic about the children in his class, he can still foresee that a large number of them will still not be able to become ninjas.

Even if you pass the graduation exam, you will most likely be dismissed in the subsequent teacher assessment.

Graduating from a ninja school and becoming an official Konoha ninja are two different concepts.

After drinking a little wine, Umino Yinluka's face turned slightly red and he asked curiously:

"Actually, I think that with Xiang Rin's talent, if Senior Bu Shui hires a private tutor at home, he will not be worse than he is now, and may even be better. Why must he come to Konoha Village?"

Gu Shan Bu Shui smiled and replied:

"Whether she is strong or not, and whether she has learned any knowledge, are all secondary. What I value more is what kind of person Xianglin will become in the future. The strength of the soul is even more important to a great noble like us.

Important. The family's aristocratic girls' school, traditional private school, etiquette teachers, etc. are all too old-fashioned. They will only teach traditional aristocratic ladies, but they cannot train the head of the entire Gushan family..."

More knowledge and life experiences are beneficial to shaping a person's character.

Over the past few years, Xiang Rin's growth still satisfies Fusugi Bosui. Even if his strength is now a bit worse than Uchiha Sasuke's, it is not a big deal.

There are so many ways to become stronger. Even so-called geniuses like Fuma Arashi, who was almost abandoned by Orochimaru, can be shaped into the first of the "Five Sound Ninjas". Of course Furugi Fusui has a way to make Xiang Rin become stronger in a very short time.

Become stronger within.

There's just no need to do that.

Anyway, Xianglin is not in danger at the moment, and she is not in a hurry to become stronger. Let her slowly experience the hardships of hard work and the hard-earned strength, which will be more beneficial to shaping a good character.

The three of them, who were slightly tipsy, were eating and drinking while pouring wine. The fruit wine brought by Gu Shanbu Shui was consumed first, followed by most of the mellow sake.

Umino Yinluka, who was obviously the worst drinker, seemed to be the happiest. He drank too freely and fell drunk before it was over.

After taking a blanket from the back room and covering it with Umino Yinluka, Mizuki sighed slightly:

"He is a good old man, but also a fool. If no one is watching, he will probably be sold and have to count the money."

"It is a blessing to have such friends. These days, people's hearts are not as old as before. There are not many upright people who really worry about their friends and are sincerely happy for their friends' success and happiness."

Even friends will inevitably have selfish motives.

"The so-called friendship in general is just about wishing you a good life, but not wanting you to live a better life than myself. The complexity and despicability of people's hearts are actually not worth mentioning. It can be clearly analyzed that this society

It will all collapse."

"So, if there is a chance to betray this idiot, it would be better for me to betray him myself. At least I will be merciful and leave him some dignity."

Shuimu said with a self-deprecating smile and sat cross-legged opposite Gushan Bushui.

"Master Bu Shui, does a big man like you, who has grown up so big, have any true and pure friends? Someone like Yin Luka..."

"How could it be possible?"

Gu Shan Bu Shui smiled and shook his head,

"My identity means that the emotions invested in me are inevitably mixed with other 'ingredients'. Of course, this is not a bad thing. The so-called 'pure' emotions are actually a very heavy pressure. It can also be

It is regarded as a kind of neurotic symptom that is close to 'paranoia'. Whether it is family affection, friendship or love, there is always something to do to make people feel at ease."

"Your statement... is really interesting, but if you think about it carefully, it makes sense. A cowardly person like Yin Luka cannot muster the courage to take the initiative to make friends, and he makes very few real friends.

Even, there are not even a few hypocritical fair-weather friends."

"That's why I cherish you as my friend very much! You see, if you think too much and analyze things too clearly, interpersonal relationships will become so boring."

As he spoke, Gu Shanbu Shui put the barbecue in his hand into his mouth, chewed it happily, and then swallowed it with the sauce.

"As for you, you seem to be good at dancing, but you are actually just playing for the occasion. How much real friendship do you have? Konoha Village is actually a collection of small circles established by family blood and master-disciple inheritance. Your kind of... orphanage

It is actually difficult for the descendants of war refugees who came out of the country to enter the inner circle. This has been true throughout the ages. The so-called society and communication are actually a complex of preferences and favors..."

From the very beginning, Furugi Bosui understood that Konoha Village was not monolithic.

The conflict between the Uchiha family and the higher-ups of the village is only part of it, and it is not even the biggest disagreement. The ambition of Danzo Shimura and the orthodoxy of the Sarutobi Hiruzen line are nothing.

The real problem is how the new blood and civilian ninjas who are gradually integrated into the Leaf Village can truly integrate with the descendants and inheritance of the Senju, Uchiha and other powerful clans.

"Bloodline, Master Bu Shui, this is my conclusion after thinking about it. Physical or mental bloodline determines the level of status, and also determines the level of strength and talent to a large extent. To put it bluntly, Konoha Village is

A place where we fight for our ancestors and our family history.”

"Outside of Konoha Village, it's not much better. However, without the strength bonus brought by blood, the channels for promotion in the outside world are smoother than in Ninja Village."

Yes, Mizuki's perception is correct.

It is obviously a world where there is an absolute monarchy, where the great nobles are at the top, and the common people are struggling to survive, but the degree of class consolidation in the seemingly enlightened but actually closed ninja village is slightly less solid.

The boundaries of blood inheritance, lineage, secret techniques and inheritance actually divide the ninja village into three, six or nine levels. It is much more difficult to overcome the gap in strength and talent than to smooth the gap in wealth and social status.

An ordinary villager can still hope to become the village elder or the richest man in the village through hard work, frugality, sharp vision, buying low and selling high; however, if Umino Yinluka's strength can catch up with Hatake Kakashi, normal

Under such circumstances, even if you work hard all your life, you won't be able to do it. The gap between the two will only become wider and wider as time goes by.

This is the cruel reality.

Although the Ninja Village does not link strength with class on the surface, but is this really the case?

In the original timeline, Umino Yinruka didn't know Kakashi Hatake before he became Uzumaki Naruto's leader, or in other words, he wasn't very familiar with him, and he didn't even know his basic resume.

Jounin and chuunin from the same village were actually so unfamiliar with each other.

How big is the entire Konoha Village?

How many jounin are there?

There are so many people graduating from the Konoha Ninja School every year. As a teacher, even if he is not in his own class, he doesn't know at all that there are so many children who have been "returned" by Kakashi Hatake?

With such alienation, it would be too much to say that the status of Jonin is completely equal to that of ordinary civilians.

Ninjas can make more money than ordinary villagers. Jonin must have more power and higher status than chunin and genin.

The superficial appearance of happiness does not affect its chasm-ridden essence.

There is no hope for an ordinary ninja like Mizuki. Maybe when he is thirty or forty years old, he will become a special jounin. This is already considered. Umino Yinruka will work hard to be an excellent teacher all his life without any special luck.

, and he’s just a chuunin.

"The ascending passage is actually blocked. I also want to learn powerful ninjutsu, but can't I learn it? No one teaches me!"

If Jiraiya makes the Rasengan training method public, with so many ninjas in Konoha Village, no one will be able to learn it?

impossible!

In the end, aren't only the orthodox successors such as Uzumaki Naruto and Hatake Kakashi learned it?

"So, Teacher Mizuki, what is your purpose?"

Gu Shan Bu Shui asked with a smile,

"Everyone has his limits. Your future in Konoha Village is probably like this. It is too natural to place your hope in Orochimaru's curse seal. There are many subordinates of that unscrupulous rebel ninja who are worse than you.

If you try to join a stronger, more potential, and younger genius, it will be like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth."

"What if I show sincerity?"

"You must have heard that Orochimaru was expelled by the Sandaime for practicing forbidden arts, so you want to use the sealed book as a meeting gift to get Orochimaru to accept it, right?"

Gushan Bushui replied with a smile,

"Where do you think the forbidden techniques that Orochimaru practices come from? How many of the forbidden techniques in the Book of Sealings are there that he has not learned yet?"

"You mean?"

In an instant, the words 'guarding and stealing' came to mind. There were only a few objects that could be suspected. Shuimu thought about it in his heart, and couldn't help but smile bitterly,

"It's up to them to tell you right and wrong. They won't take people like me to play anyway. So, Master Bu Shui, is there a clear way over there?"

"It's definitely much better than your current situation and defecting to Orochimaru."

"I hope you can clear up my confusion."

Looking at Mizuki who bowed his head slightly in greeting to show his submission and asked for advice, Gushan Bu Shui said leisurely:

"Your identity is very useful. You are a teacher at the Konoha Ninja School and Umino Yinluka's best friend. You can get close to Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto relatively easily and without arousing suspicion."

"Uzumaki Naruto?"

It is understandable that Uchiha Sasuke has fallen into the eyes of Major Governor Furusugi. Why should Uzumaki Naruto?

"Kyuubi?"

"No, this person is more important than Kyuubi..."

Gu Shan Bu Shui warned solemnly.
