Chapter 512 Gekko Clan's Dinner

♪ I waited for a long time and finally waited till today♪

♪ I dreamed for a long time and finally realized my dream♪

On the way home, Kanpū sang with high spirit!

But it didn't take long for Kanpū to fall into entanglement.

Regarding the purple talent stardust, Kanpū can only activate three of them at the same time!

'Minato's nerve reflexes is a must. With this thing, I can respond in time no matter what attack I encounter. This is a life-saving skill, and the priority is absolutely the first, without a doubt!'

In addition to nerve reflexes, Kanpū now has six purple talent stardust, which are, the kind eyes and benevolent eyebrows collected from the leader of Yugakure, the Giant Stomach and Extraordinary Strength collected from the Fujin and Raijin brother, Uzumaki Clan's physique collected from Kushina and Naruto, and Shisui's dynamic vision.

Leaving aside the infrequently used kind eyes and benevolent eyebrows and Giant Stomach, there are still Extraordinary Strength, Uzumaki Clan's physique and dynamic vision, but he can only choose two of them.

Kanpū pondered carefully, 'Uzumaki Clan's physique is a must, otherwise, the shadow clones like Hyōketsu and Taki would dissipate. As without this physique, I am afraid I can't hold it.'

'So which one to choose between the remaining Extraordinary Strength and dynamic vision?'

Extraordinary Strength allows Kanpū to have strength like Chakra Enhanced Strength. Although it is not as good as Tsunade's, he can defeat most of the people in the Shinobi World in strength and is almost invincible in close combat.

Dynamic vision is also very important. Kanpū is extremely fast now, especially when using Konoha-Style Kenjutsu. Without dynamic vision, his eyes may not be able to adapt to the sudden increase in speed.

'And without good eyesight, I'm afraid I can't match Minato's nerve reflexes.'

When he was entangled, Kanpū suddenly have a thought, 'Maybe I can light up four purple stardust at the same time now.' He immediately started the experiment, but unfortunately, after lighting up to the third one, he can no longer light up the fourth one.'

Kanpū sighed in regret.

After being engtangled all the way home, Kanpū finally decided to light up the dynamic vision.

'As for Extraordinary Strength…'

'I will change it when I need it. Anyway, with Minato's nerve reflexes and Shisui's dynamic vision, no one can kill me instantly.'

He then opened the iron gate and walk into the mansion. His house is very lively tonight. Including Inoue and Panasonic, most of the Shinobi of the Gekko Clan have come to Kanpū's house, including Tabako and Reifu, Yuki, Yama and other young Shinobi.

Kanpū didn't attract much attention when he returned, only his little brother ran over to greet him with a smile.

"Brother, are you ready for tonight's decisive battle?" Hayate asked, with both nervousness and expectation.

"What… did you do something bad?" Kanpū felt a trace of malice from Hayate.

"No way!"

Hayate put his hands on his hips and said confidently, "I just care about you, brother!"

There's no way Kanpū would believe him. He pricked up his ears and heard the chaotic noise coming from the training ground in the middle of the mansion.

He took a few steps forward and heard his name being said.

"Kanpū was promoted to Tokubetsu Jonin by Hokage-sama before the last Chunin Exams, which shows that his strength is comparable to that of Sister Tabako. I think this duel will end in a draw!"

"Nonsense! Hokage-sama deliberately promoted Kanpū to Tokubetsu Jonin in order to let Kanpū serve as the head examiner. Although it is not good to say that, Kanpū has indeed gone through the back door, so he must not be Tabako's opponent!"

"I don't think that's the case. Kanpū has made many contributions during the Third Shinobi World War, and he is very strong!"

"It might be true if it was during the Third Shinobi World War. But now, so many years have passed, so Sister Tabako must have surpassed him!"

"Come on, the market is open. The duel between Tabako and Kanpū, Tabako wins 1 is 1.3, Kanpū wins is 1 to 1.8, just accepting cash, no credit."

Listening to these messy sounds, Kanpū has a constipated expression on his face.

"Brother, I bet on you winning, isn't that great!" Hayate said happily.

The corner of Kanpū's twitched, and he said angrily: "Hokage-sama clearly stipulates that gambling is forbidden in the village, but you still dare to gamble, do you want to go to Konoha Prison to mine?!!!"

Hayate is not afraid at all, and said with a smile: "This is just entertainment between our relatives, how can it be called gambling?"

Kanpū said angrily: "Since it is entertainment…"

Kanpū juggled out twenty banknotes worth 10,000 ryo, and said, "My obedient little brother, go and bet for your big brother winning!"

"Okay~"

Hayate grabbed the stack of banknotes and rushed towards the training stadium like a gust of wind.

Kanpū then thought, 'I have some impression of the guy who created the betting, what's his name again?'

Kanpū thought for a long time and can only think of him having the same surname as himself, 'Forget it, giving me a few hundred thousand is good enough. I don't hold any grudges.'

After a while, Hayate walked over depressedly.

"What's the matter?"

Kanpū asked, "He didn't accept it?"

"It was accepted, but the odds changed."

Hayate took out a handwritten small ticket and said, "Brother, your odds are now 1 to 1.4, which is the same as Sister Tabako's."

Kanpū took a look, and saw the handwriting was very bad and it was unprofessional. He carefully put away the receipt and asked: "With 1 to 1.4, then I can only earn 80,000 if I win, right?"

Hayate nodded, and then he said with a smile: "But my odds are still 1.8, hehehe."

Kanpū shook his head. These are indeed just entertainment for him, after all, he is sure to win.

"By the way, where's Sister Tabako?" Kanpū asked with some doubt when he couldn't see the delicate and pretty figure while looking at the training ground.

"She's chatting with the Uncles in the reception room, brother, I think you should go and have a look too." Hayate is a little worried about those adults will directly choose Tabako as the Clan Head.

Kanpū also thought of this, so he hurried to the reception room, but unfortunately, before he arrived, the roar of the Keiko and the other women came from the kitchen.

"It's time to eat!!!"

After a brief silence, a pretty girl and the elderly uncles in the reception room simultaneously walked towards the living room.

Kanpū also had to change his course.

"Kanpū, you're back."

When Inoue saw Kanpū, his face, which is filled with age spots, showed a look of relief, "You're really getting taller."

Kanpū has just measured his height in the past few days, and he is already 1.86 meters now. Moreover, he keeps his waist straight no matter whether he is walking or sitting, so he looks more handsome, tall, young and confident.

"Long time no seem, Grandpa Inoue." Kanpū quickly greeted him.

In the past few years, Kanpū's shadow clone has been in contact with Inoue, but for Kanpū himself, he has not been in contact with Inoue for four or five years.

Of course, Matsushita is the same.

"Hello, Grandpa Matsushita."

Kanpū turned his head to look at the other elders in the scene, showing a polite but awkward smile, "Everyone… Uncle Uncle, hello, too."

Many elders also expressed their greetings. Some praised Kanpū for being handsome, others praised Kanpū for having a good temperament, and others praised Kanpū for having a good name.

After that, everyone sat down and began to enjoy the dinner. Keiko and the other women cooked all kinds of foods, such as onigiri, sushi, oden, crayfish, and various stir-fried dishes.

Kanpū sits with Hayate, next to Tabako and the rest of Gekko Clan's beautiful girls, but Kanpū could not remember many names.

Kanpū looked around while peeling and eating spicy crayfish. There were about forty people at the scene, and the ratio between the elders and younger generations are almost 50-50. Of course, Gekko Clan is not limited to just these people, but those present can represent the entire Gekko Clan, because they are all Shinobi!

As for Keiko and the other women, they are not here. After they brought the dishes, they turned around and went back to the kitchen to continue cooking.

"Don't you pay attention to tonight's decisive battle?"

Sitting on Kanpū's right, Tabako suddenly started to talk. Her sharp and cold eyes shifted from the bruise on the back of Kanpū's hand to Kanpū's face, "Did you fight someone this afternoon?"

Kanpū glanced at the bruises on the back of his hand, and he didn't know what to say.

Although for Kanpū, it is not worth paying attention to defeat Tabako, this 'true feeling' cannot be known to Tabako, otherwise, she will explode on the spot.

So Kanpū opened his eyes and started talking nonsense: "Are you talking about this? You misunderstood, these traces are left by the special training I specially conducted for this decisive battle, so be prepared, you will lose!"

Hearing Kanpū's words, Tabako didn't bother with it anymore.

Kanpū secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

In the middle of the dinner, Gekko Clan's Current Clan Head, Hoshino had something to say, so the clansmen in the scene gave him face and put down their utensils and simultaneously looked towards Hoshino.

"Everyone knows that I was seriously injured during the Third Shinobi World War, so that I could no longer live as a Shinobi, but everyone did not abandon me, so I, the Clan Head, can sit until now. Thank you very much!"

Hoshino picked up a cup of sake, and poured it down to his throat.

The elders such as Inoue and Matsushita also started drinking immediately, bragging about it.

Kanpū secretly peeled the crayfish blankly, and the rest of the younger clansmen also did their own small actions.

For a while, the atmosphere over there was controlled. Hoshino was a little drunk, he blushed and said again: "Today is my son Kanpū's 18th birthday. He has grown up, and I am old now. Looking at the growth of Kanpū, the growth of the younger generation, I know that my mission has come to an end. I know that only they can lead Gekko Clan to a better future, so I decided! Hiccup~~~~"

Just as it was sensational, Hoshino rudely ruined the atmosphere with a hiccup.

Kanpū lowered his head and sniggered shamelessly, and Hayate and the rest of the younger generation beside him couldn't hold back either.

Tabako has the aura of a big sister, and glared Kanpū and the others fiercely.

After hiccupping, Hoshino continued to preach: "I have decided to resign as the Clan Head! As for the next Clan Head, I will choose between the younger generation, which are Gekko Tabako and Gekko Kanpū. Then, do any of you have any disagreements~~ Please speak now."

This matter has been discussed for a long time, so naturally, there is no objection.

Then, Hoshino looked towards Inoue, who is next to him.

Inoue took a sip of sake and started speaking: "Then after the dinner, we'll let Tabako-chan spar with Kanpū, and whoever wins will become the Clan Head."

At first glance, this way of choosing Clan Head is very unreasonable. After all, strength does not mean that they can lead the clan to prosperity.

But this is the Shinobi World. The Third Shinobi World War has only ended a few years ago, so everyone present knows what having a powerful Clan Head means to the clan.

"Tabako, don't hold back later, fiercely beat Kanpū's ass!" Matsushita encouraged with a smile.

"I know, grandpa." Tabako nodded solemnly.

Hearing this, Matsushita smiled. He then turned his head to Kanpū and said: "Kanpū, you are a man, don't bully girls."

Hearing this, Kanpū's face twitched and he said with a chuckle: "Grandpa Matsushita, I'm still a child, I don't know the difference between men and women."

"Smelly brat." Matsushita laughed and cursed and continued talking to the rest of the juniors.

This meal lasted until about eight o'clock before it finally came to an end.

And then, it's time for the main event.
