Chapter 98 The New Year

After chopping four pieces of bamboo, Kanpū and Hayate moved to the next battlefield.

As soon as they left, the others rushed up to grab the remaining bamboo. The bamboo was big and thick, and it was worthy of being a thief. If they take a step slower, they won't be able to grab it!

Kanpū looked back and suddenly felt a strange feeling.

"Big brother..."

Hayate looked at his big brother with his eyes filled with worship, envy and longing. He then said, "Big brother, how did you do it just now? You suddenly disappeared, suddenly appeared, and then the bamboo fell."

Kanpū smiled and said: "That's Body Flicker Technique."

"Body Flicker Technique!"

Hayate's eyes glowed, "Is it a teleportation Ninjutsu?"

"It's not that exaggerated, it's just a high-speed movement Ninjutsu." Kanpū said.

"High speed movement? How high?" Hayate asked curiously.

"Pfft~ hahaha ​​​​​…"

Kanpū was amused by Hayate's "how high", and only managed suppressed his laughs after a while and explained, "Very high, it's so high that the naked eye of ordinary person can't catch it. Only Shinobi can capture the figure of another Shinobi using Body Flicker Technique."

Of course, some powerful Shinobi's Body Flicker Technique is so fast that it is difficult to capture even with Sharingan or Byakugan. Of course, most of the Body Flicker Technique on these levels are usually can only be used by Taijutsu-user, Nintaijutsu-user and the like.

"Big brother..."

Hayate was embarrassed, "That, that, me, I…"

"Do you want to learn Body Flicker Technique?"

Kanpū see through Hayate's mind.

"En!"

Hayate nodded like a chicken pecking on rice, "Big brother, I want to learn."

"This Ninjutsu is still too early for you."

Kanpū shook his head and refused.

It's easy to get started with Body Flicker Technique. As long as the hand seal is formed and then the chakra is gathered on the leg, it can be used, but it's very difficult to master it. From a state of extreme stillness to a state of extreme speed, the impact of that kind of acceleration is very powerful. Even with Kanpū's current training of Body Revival Technique, it still takes half a year to get used to it, and Hayate… With Hayate's body, without training Taijutsu, there is basically no hope even after five years.

So instead of letting him waste time on Body Flicker Technique, it is better to get him to refine Chakra and train Kenjutsu.

"Big brother, I really want to learn it."

The moment when Kanpū cut the bamboo is too powerful and beautiful, it was deeply engraved in Hayate's heart, and it is impossible for him to forget it.

"Body Flicker Technique is a technique that only real Shinobi can master."

Kanpū rolled his eyes and said, "Therefore, when you graduate from the Academy and don't skip grades, I'll teach you the Body Flicker Technique, how about that?"

Faced with Kanpū's big and delicious cake, Hayate had no doubts at all, and immediately nodded excitedly.

...

It took more than an hour for them to get the pine branches and plum blossom branches, and successfully completed the mission given by Keiko.

After returning home, Keiko immediately started making the gate pine.

"Aunt Keiko, are uncle and my father coming back for the New Year?" Hayate, who was helping out, suddenly asked.

Keiko's hands movements stopped for a moment, and then she shook her head.

The hospital receives a batch of seriously injured Shinobi from the front line every half a month, so Keiko knows how stalemate the frontline is, plus Hoshino and Seiseki are Jōnin, and Tokubetsu Jōnin respectively, and they are Konoha-Style Kenjutsu Shinobi with strong combat strength. Therefore, it is unlikely for them to get back from the frontline at this time.

Hayate's spirit dropped down for a little.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the house. Kanpū went to the entrance to open the door, and saw Tabako coming while holding Yūgao's hand.

"You are not Hayate-nii!"

Seeing that it was not Hayate that opened the door. Yūgao immediately bypassed Kanpū to the entrance, and shouted to the inside, "Hayate-nii, let's build a snowman and have a snowball fight ~~"

"I'm here! I'm here." When Hayate heard the sound, he immediately ran out.

"Want to come, Kanpū?" Tabako asked with a smile.

"No, I have something else to do."

Kanpū sighed. Compared to building snowmen and snowball fights, he, the single dog, felt that it is better to go back to the bedroom to train Body Revival Technique and refining Chakra.

...

Time passed, and in a blink of an eye, it was December 31, the last day of 43rd year of Konoha.

The two brothers, Hoshino and Seiseki, did not come back for the New Year in the end.

Moreover, even Keiko is working overtime in the hospital, therefore, there are only two brothers, Kanpū and Hayate, at home.

"It's so cold."

Hayate is wearing Keiko's newly woven scarf, sat in the entrance with his hands on his cheeks. The door of the entrance is opened, and in the dim light, there are two gate pines which are full of green and verdant, but after a while, there was a big heavy snow fall in the sky, and soon a layer of white fluorescence appeared on the ground, and the gate door pines were gradually covered by the white snow.

"Big brother, there's a big snow!!"

Seeing such a heavy snow, Hayate immediately became happy, "Tomorrow, I can build a snowman and have a snowball fight with Yūgao-chan again…"

Kanpū was boiling water in the kitchen. And when he heard Hayate's words, he immediately suffered a 999 critical damage, and then he said: "Hayate, look at what you've been like these days? Every day, you only know how to run out to play, do you still remember how to train? Do you want to be a Shinobi?"

"Big brother, I'm training every night." Hayate rushed in from the entrance and defended himself.

"Now... you even dare to refute me..."

Kanpū looked up at the ceiling of the kitchen and let out a long sigh, looking lonely.

"Big brother… big brother, I will go training now!"

Hayate was tangled. He immediately ran on the sofa in the living room, sat cross-legged, and began to refine Chakra earnestly.

Kanpū shook his head when he saw this.

After the hot water was boiled, Kanpū made a cup of hot tea for himself, put it on the table to dissipate the heat, and then walked slowly to the backyard.

Kanpū took a deep breath, and the cold air instantly invaded his limbs and bones, let him mind becomes cleared, and then he formed a hand seal with his hands.

Shunshin no Jutsu! (Body Flicker Technique)

Whoosh!

Kanpū whizzes, rolling large flakes of snow.

In the next instant, Kanpū appeared on the wall in the backyard.

Kanpū looked down at the seven- or eight-meters tall wall under his feet, and suddenly remembered that he had just transmigrated, he had to use both his hands and feet to climb over, but now, he just jumped towards the top of the wall with just a leap when using the Body Flicker Technique.

Whoosh whoosh!

Suddenly, a night breeze blew up a large amount of snow, and was about to shot towards Kanpū's face.

Kanpū is not afraid, and directly formed hand seals with both hands.

Snake - Ram - Monkey - Boar - Horse - Tiger!

Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu! (Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique)

The Chakra inside his body quickly flows away along the Chakra Pathway System, and finally rushes into his throat.

Kanpū took a deep breath, his cheeks twitched, and as the Chakra in his throat quickly heated up, he spewed out a fireball the size of a melon, carrying the scorching heat, and blowing away the oncoming snow. While scattered, a large number of snowflakes were roasted and turned into raindrops and fell.

The fireball spewed out for more than two meters, and finally slowly extinguished in the cold night wind.

Then, Kanpū covered the soles of his feet with Chakra and walked down the icy wall step by step from the top of the wall. After that, he trained in three basic techniques and threw Ninja Tools in the backyard, and only entered the room after sweating all over.

Drinking the warm tea in one gulp, Kanpū walked into the bedroom and started training the Body Revival Technique while Refining Chakra.
