Variety Martin from Hokage

Chapter 15; Master Xie

Naruto, who was wearing goggles and carrying a pillar-like scroll, landed next to the bonfire.

As soon as he landed on the ground and before he could speak, a strong fragrance filled his nostrils.

"What does this smell like? It smells so good!" He followed the smell and immediately looked at the iron pot that was smoking on the campfire.

"Today is a picnic. I have prepared the kitchen utensils and ingredients. Have you brought the mat that I asked you to bring?" Martin glanced at the scroll behind Naruto and knew immediately that it was a seal scroll.

"Ah? This..." Upon hearing Martin's question, Naruto was at a loss. Because Teacher Mizuki told him that he could become a ninja, he had been busy with the task of stealing the Sealed Book.

The things I agreed to bring for the picnic were all forgotten for a while.

"Ah haha, I'm sorry, I forgot." He scratched his head in embarrassment. But he quickly thought about the scroll behind him, his face immediately became excited, and he proudly placed the scroll in front of him.

"But this time I brought a surprise. From now on, I will be a ninja like you."

"Hey, that's it, let's see what ninjutsu is in it!"

"As long as I learn the above ninjutsu, I can successfully graduate." Naruto said, excitedly opening the scroll on the ground.

"Of course it's Teacher Mizuki. He told me the location of the scroll."

Although he tried his best to avoid it, he was only stabbed in the leg by a kunai.

But soon, a black shadow quickly passed through the dense forest and landed in front of the two of them.

When Iruka heard the sound, he subconsciously reached out and pushed Naruto away. However, he missed the best opportunity to dodge and could only avoid the vital points as much as possible.

"Boohoo!"

"Does the other party also have the ability to predict the future?... It's really tricky." He smoked a cigarette, his face hidden in the shadow of the moonlight.

…………

The news that the Sealed Book was stolen by Naruto has spread.

"Martin, hurry up and take Naruto to escape first! I'll hold him back!"

But Mizuki didn't pay attention to his threat and continued to speak under Naruto's questioning gaze.

"Naruto, you can't hand over the scroll even if you die. It is a dangerous item that has been sealed because it contains forbidden ninjutsu."

"Asshole, shut up!!" Iruka suddenly panicked when he heard what the other party was about to say.

"Mizuki!" Iruka's eyes widened, finally knowing who was behind all this.

The third generation who was watching this scene through the crystal ball in the Hokage Building suddenly twitched his eyes. It looked like this guy had prepared in advance.

"Hahaha, Iruka-sensei, I have learned a ninjutsu."

At this time, Naruto looked at Mizuki, then at the injured Iruka, with a confused look on his face, "Um, um... what the hell is going on?"

On the other side, after Naruto arrived with the scroll, Mizuki in the dark did not act, but was waiting for something.

"Iruka-sensei is here."

Naruto saw Iruka-sensei appearing and laughed excitedly.

"Mizuki used you to get it!"

"Dong dong dong!" The dense kunai passed through Iruka's figure after a series of afterimages, hitting the wooden house behind and making a muffled sound.

"Of course, what you made, it smells so delicious." Naruto's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard about the food. From the beginning, he frequently turned his head to look at the bonfire, anxiously waiting for Martin to speak.

"Naruto! Hand over the scroll!"

"Can it really shine?" Naruto obviously still remembered what Martin said on the school playground.

After explaining the situation roughly, he immediately waved for Naruto and the two of them to run away first.

"Hey, Naruto!" The panting Iruka bent over and looked at Naruto angrily. Then he looked at Martin, "Why are you with Naruto?"

"What's wrong?"

"I made an appointment with him for a picnic." Martin pointed to the bonfire next to him without explaining much.

"Da!" Iruka threw the bloody kunai away and stared at Mizuki closely.

Hearing Naruto's words, Iruka was suddenly shocked.

Martin said, looking deep into the jungle.

"After that incident, the village set a certain rule..."

"Mizuki! Why do you do this?" Iruka's face twitched as he pulled out the kunai from his leg and asked loudly.

Upon hearing the explanation, Naruto immediately looked at Mizuki angrily.

…………

"Well, well, as long as I learn all the ninjutsu in this scroll, I can definitely graduate!"

Although Martin's daily transformation is not stable, and most of the time he is just an ordinary chicken or duck. But again, the upper limit is unimaginable. Anything is possible.

"Ah? Who told you that?"

…………

"But I really didn't expect you to come here so quickly." Under the cold moonlight, Mizuki, who was carrying a windmill on his back, walked out from behind a tree trunk with a gloomy expression.

"Counting the time, the news about Naruto stealing the scroll should have been spread in the village."

This is Master Xie’s signature pastry, a steamed bun that can make you laugh magically.

"Iruka-sensei? Where are you? Where are you?" Naruto looked around with confusion, but all he saw was darkness.

"Naruto, Iruka-sensei is just afraid that you will get the scroll." Mizuki was calm and calm.

"As a reward for bringing me the scroll, I will tell you what happened 12 years ago."

"Of course, but there's no rush."

"Naruto, Martin, you..." He looked at the two students in front of him, wanting them to leave here as soon as possible, but before he finished speaking, a sharp sound pierced the air suddenly sounded in the silent forest.

"Baozi, golden smile."

"Are you hungry?" Martin took a photo of the ninjutsu on the scroll and put it away. At this time, the food cooked on the campfire was almost ready.

Soon, there was a sparse sound in the village, and afterimages flowed on the streets and rooftops under the moonlight.

"Huh, of course it's to return to Lord Orochimaru." Mizuki snorted coldly, and then looked at Naruto with a gloomy look.

"Wait for me." Martin took out a camera at some point, "I'll also make a note here."

"Ah, yeah, I was ignored." Looking at the scene of their confrontation, Martin scratched his face in embarrassment, and then took a few steps forward.

"Naruto, do you want to have a picnic?"

Hearing the familiar and gentle voice behind him, Naruto, who was on the verge of explosion under the guidance of Mizuki's words, immediately came back to his senses.

He turned his head with the last glimmer of hope and thought of the sunflowers shrouded in the sunset that day. His heart, which was about to sink into darkness, was suddenly illuminated by a warm light at this moment.
