Chapter 4 Companions

As the crowd dispersed, the front of the Ninja School slowly returned to calm again.

After explaining to his family about the party tonight, Jiraiya finally arrived at the place that everyone had agreed to in advance.

Looking at Kagura with black hair and black eyes, his eyelids could not help but rise.

He asked in a bad tone:

"I say, you kid, didn't you say you couldn't come yesterday?

Why did you come here today?"

Faced with the questioning, Kagura didn't bother to pay attention to him at all, just rolled her eyes at him.

Facts have proved that reasoning with women doesn't work.

Under Tsunade's threat, Kagura finally followed along.

After all, keeping a distance from Tsunade at the beginning was due to their identities.

In fact, psychologically, Kagura didn't feel disgusted with Tsunade.

And after graduating from school, the two were destined to be assigned to different teams, so the chances of getting along again in the future would only become fewer and fewer.

Thinking of this, Kagura no longer resisted and followed them resignedly.

At this time, Tsunade stood up and yelled at Jiraiya:

"Why do you care so much? Anyway, Kagura is here now, just shut up and stay here."

Jiraiya shrank his head and pouted his lips in grievance.

Tsunade put on the style of a big sister, looked around and waved her hand and said:

"Okay, since everyone is here, let's go."

At this time, Orochimaru, who had been calm, asked:

"But where are we going?

Before, we just said that we wanted to get together, but we didn't think about where to go."

"(⊙o⊙)..."

Hearing this, Tsunade paused and slowly put down her raised hand.

Yes, they only said they wanted to get together, but they didn't discuss where to go.

She tilted her head and thought about it, trying to think about the gathering scenes of those elders.

Suddenly, he clenched his right fist and clapped it on his left palm, and said excitedly:

"Let's find a place to have a big meal!

My father and his friends always find a place to drink and eat every time they get together!"

Kagura and Orochimaru looked at each other and said in unison:

"It's the end of the month now, and we have no money~~~"

Yes, these two orphans live on the village's relief money every month.

Although it's not too little, don't expect to have too much left.

Jiraiya touched his head and said:

"I used my pocket money to buy books a few days ago."

He laughed a few times embarrassedly.

At this point, the three of them suddenly looked at Tsunade in unison.

Looking at everyone's gaze, Tsunade nervously took a half step back.

Jiraiya's eyes lit up and he said excitedly:

"I heard that your father is the son of the daimyo of the Land of Fire, Tsunade. You should have a lot of pocket money, right?"

Facing the expectant eyes of everyone, Tsunade swallowed her saliva and said unnaturally:

"I...

My family didn't give me pocket money a long time ago.

They were afraid that I would take it to the casino..."

She spoke more and more quietly, and in the end the three of them could hardly hear what she was saying.

Hearing this, Kagura suddenly realized.

By the way, I almost forgot that this person in front of me also has a nickname like "Casino Fat Sheep".

And her gambling nature was cultivated by the first generation of Hokage when she was only a few years old...

Kagura sighed, squinted at Tsunade and concluded:

"So, you are willing to use threats to force me to come here.

And then you find that we poor guys have nowhere to go?"

Although the words were a bit unpleasant, Tsunade had to admit that he made sense.

Looking at the dejected Tsunade, Kagura shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Then he raised his hands and clapped them, and after attracting everyone's attention, he said:

"Okay, it's not completely impossible.

You all have some money on you, right? Take it out?"

Although the three didn't know what Kagura wanted to do, they looked at each other in confusion and took out the money obediently.

After counting the money raised by everyone, Kagura nodded with satisfaction and said to himself:

"Well, not bad.

These should be enough."

After saying that, he ignored the three people and walked out.

Although the people behind him didn't know what was going on, they still followed him consciously.

As Kagura turned a few streets, they found that they had arrived at the vegetable market.

"Hey, grandma, you look very energetic today!"

"Yeah, yes, please help me get some meat, about four servings."

"Oh, with some green onions."

"Speaking of which, you seem to be more beautiful today."

The three of them looked at Kagura with dull faces as she walked around the stalls familiarly.

Soon, bags of ingredients appeared in Kagura's hands.

Although she guessed what Kagura was going to do, Tsunade still asked hesitantly:

"You are...

Are you going to prepare to cook for yourself?"

Kagura rolled his eyes at her unhappily and asked back:

"What else?"

Tsunade opened her eyes wide and asked again in surprise:

"You can cook?"

"What else?"

Hearing his answer, the three of them were surprised and looked at him with admiration.

Kagura, who realized something was wrong, finally came back to his senses and asked carefully: You don't know how to cook? "

The three of them nodded in unison.

He looked at Orochimaru in disbelief and said:

"Don't you live alone?

What do you usually eat?"

"Well... usually instant noodles, and occasionally some bread."

Orochimaru said so.

Glancing at him with contempt, Kagura curled her lips and said:

"No wonder you always look malnourished. "

Orochimaru:...

After purchasing food, Kagura brought everyone directly to his home.

Speaking of which, this is the first time he has brought people to his home since he crossed over.

After entering the door, Tsunade looked around excitedly.

The place where Kagura lives is very small, and you can almost see it at a glance, but it is very tidy.

After Tsunade took the initiative to ask for help, but accidentally split the chopping board in two with a knife.

Kagura frowned and invited the three gods to the living room.

When he was still on Blue Star, as a otaku, he was not a chef, but he knew some cooking skills.

In addition to the five years of living alone after crossing over, Kagura is now proficient.

In less than an hour, four dishes and a soup were served in front of everyone.

The aroma hit the nose, and the three people were a little restless.

Jiraiya moved his nose and felt that the saliva in his mouth was secreting crazily.

Seeing the three people swallowing their saliva secretly, Kagura laughed and said:

"Okay, don't be polite.

Let's get started."

As soon as the voice fell, Tsunade, who had been impatient for a long time, took a piece of brightly colored meat and put it in her mouth.

Her eyes lit up and she praised loudly:

"Kagura, your cooking is so delicious!

What is this?"

"Oh, this is twice-cooked pork."

"Hiss~~~ So spicy!

What about this?"

"That's mapo tofu."

Just twenty minutes later, the three of them lay on the floor with satisfaction.

Jiraiya rubbed his belly and said:

"I didn't expect that Kagura's cooking is so delicious. I think it's a waste for you to be a ninja. You should open a restaurant."

"Burp~~~

Although I really want to refute him, I think Jiraiya is right at this time! "

Tsunade agreed after a burp without any manners.

Orochimaru didn't say anything, but closed his eyes as if he was savoring the taste just now.

Kagura sat calmly at the table, picked up a cup of hot tea and took a sip, not wanting to pay attention to them.

"By the way, who do you think will be our respective team leaders tomorrow? "

Tsunade turned over and suddenly asked.

As if opening the topic, the three began to chatter.

In the end, even Kagura, who looked like an old man, slowly joined the discussion.

Youth is always beautiful. Soon, noise and joyful laughter came from Kagura's house.

The bright moon quietly climbed up the night sky without knowing when, and the three came out of Kagura's house one after another.

While waving goodbye to Kagura, he walked towards his own home.

Looking at the few people going away, Kagura stood at the door, as if he wanted to keep the relaxation of this moment.

"Ahem...

I didn't expect that you would invite little Kagura to your home. It really surprised me."

At this time, a voice came from beside him.

Kagura turned his head and said respectfully:

"Mr. Kagura, good evening. "

The person who spoke was Uchiha Kagami, a rare person in the Uchiha clan who could gain the trust of Senju Tobirama.

When he followed Senju Tobirama to Kumogakure to sign a truce agreement last year, he was attacked by Kinkaku and Ginkaku of Kumogakure.

In order to let him and Danzo escape from the predicament, Senju Tobirama went to the enemy alone, and later died because of serious injuries.

Although Uchiha Kagami escaped back to the village from the ambush, he was also seriously injured and fell ill.

Kagura, who was familiar with the plot, knew that the peace-loving clan member in front of him might not live beyond this year.

Smiling at Kagura, Uchiha Kagami said:

"Little Kagura, you are too lonely. You are always alone, which makes people a little worried.

But seeing that you are starting to make friends, I am relieved.

I am afraid that I will not live long. The Uchiha clan is too proud. I always feel that there may be problems in the future.

I hope that your generation can lead the Uchiha to truly integrate into Konoha. "

Oh, your premonition is right.

Not only will there be problems, but the clan will be wiped out in 20 years.

After complaining in his heart, Kagura did not respond.

He just looked at the slightly blurred figure in the distance and muttered to himself:

"Companions?

It seems to be good..."

On the morning of the second day, Kagura came to the gathering place notified by the school yesterday.

In addition to being curious about the team members and the leading jonin in the next few years, it was more because the system issued a task for him last night.

"Task: Successfully seize the bell of the jonin in the team assessment.

Task rewards: 1. Start the training of the tailed beast.

2. You can randomly draw a ninjutsu and understand it. "

The tailed beasts he had been thinking about!

As the protagonist, he would be embarrassed to go out in this world without a few tailed beasts on his body.

The so-called assessment that he had not cared about before suddenly became important, and for this reason, Kagura adjusted his state early in the morning.

As time passed, he finally waited for the other team members and the leading ninja.

Just looking at those figures, he opened his eyes wide in disbelief.

How could it be them???
