Naruto: I'm Really Not a Pokémon

Jianchuan Ju estimated that the few people would not leave the cabin for the next few days.

Seeing that there was nothing exciting to watch, the people around also dispersed one by one.

Jianchuan Ju looked at the brown-haired girl who came over and was scolding Uchiha Obito, and her heart was not as calm as she appeared.

Namikaze Minato, Hatake Kakashi, Uchiha Obito, Nohara Rin. How could the famous Minato team be on the flight from the Land of Water to the Land of Craftsmen at this time?

At this moment, Jianchuan Ju's brain was working rapidly.

At present, Uchiha Obito and Nohara Rin should have just graduated from the Ninja Academy. Kakashi is still only a Chunin, and the Minato Class was established not long ago.

Although Konoha has already gone to war with Sunagakure, it was only a small-scale conflict in the early stages of the war. Iwagakure is just taking the opportunity to denounce Konoha, and it is hard to say whether troops will be sent to the Land of Earth.

Minato Namikaze's true reputation as the "Yellow Flash" was earned during the Third Shinobi World War. Although he may be quite strong now, he is still considered a capable young Jonin in Konoha, not an indispensable combatant on the battlefield.

That's why he was able to take his three disciples out to perform some ordinary tasks and train newcomers.

Having cleared her mind, Jianchuan Ju breathed a sigh of relief.

There's no way. None of these people are easy to deal with. Even if they are familiar characters from the original novel, it's still a little scary when they suddenly appear in front of you.

Just now, Jianchuan Ju even thought about whether he should take advantage of the fact that Uchiha Obito is still the last one in the group to kill him.

After all, when he awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan in the future, he caused great trouble to the entire Hidden Mist Village.

Using illusions to control the Fourth Mizukage, intensifying the blood mist policy, and slaughtering the bloodline families, it can be said that the Hidden Mist Village has been brought to the point where it has become the shame of the five major ninja villages.

Fortunately, Jianchuan Ju still has some rationality, and it is hard to say what will happen in the future. If I dare to attack Uchiha Obito now, I guess even Qing teacher may not be able to protect me.

"Hey, kid, let's go."

Seeing that there was no more excitement, Jianchuan Ju was still staring there blankly, and Shimotsuki Ichiro had to pat him with his hand to remind him.

"Oh, okay, Mr. Shimotsuki."

Jianchuan Tachibana withdrew his gaze in time, but when he was about to leave, he found that Namikaze Minato seemed to be glancing at him vaguely.

Jianchuan Ju almost couldn't hold back his expression.

Fortunately, nothing happened in the end, and Minato's team left the deck in a noisy manner.

"Little boy, you seem to be worried."

"Uh, nothing much, it's just that those guys just now were very strong."

Of course Jianchuan Ju couldn't tell the truth, so he had to make up an excuse.

"Haha, the blond one is okay, but the black-haired one is so irritable and won't amount to anything in the future. As an old man, I have a pretty good eye for people."

"Haha, yeah."

Jianchuan Ju smiled awkwardly, but did not refute anything.

"As for you, kid. I feel that you will definitely have a bright future. Would you like to consider letting me make you a ninja sword? I guarantee that your strength will improve by leaps and bounds!"

"Free?"

Upon hearing Jianchuan Tachibana's answer, Shimotsuki Ichiro's eyes immediately widened with a look of disbelief.

"How is that possible! Do you know how valuable a famous sword is?"

"Mr. Shimotsuki, have you ever made any famous swords?"

Seeing that Jianchuan Ju actually questioned his forging skills, old man Shimotsuki became even more angry and immediately opened his mouth to refute.

"What do you know? A famous sword can only be famous in the hands of an expert. It's not that the sword I made is not good, but those guys are too weak and let my sword down!"

Jianchuan Ju looked at the old man who was a little too excited and thought.

"Just now you said that you have always been very good at judging people."

However, considering that the other party is his client after all, it would be bad if he was not harmed by the enemy but instead suffered internal injuries from his own anger.

Shut up decisively and signal that you admit defeat.

Seeing that the kid was so tactless in rejecting him again, Ichiro Shimotsuki no longer tried to promote his forging business.

Chapter 42: Artisan Ninja Village

On this unchanging sea, four days passed in a flash.

Apart from a minor incident on the first day on board, nothing noteworthy happened afterwards.

During this period, Jianchuan Ju met the four members of the Watergate team several times.

However, although the Water Kingdom and the Fire Kingdom have not yet gone to war, they are after all ninjas from two different ninja villages and there is no communication between them.

However, because old man Shimotsuki often needs company and protection recently, his relationship with Jianchuan Ju has become more and more familiar.

I don't know whether he is really optimistic about the future of Jianchuan Tachibana, or because Zabuza clearly wants to become one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen and has no interest in the old man.

In short, Ichiro Shimotsuki never gave up promoting his ninja sword customization service to Tachibana Jianchuan.

In the end, Jianchuanju could only helplessly say that he would consider it when he had money in the future.

"finally reached!"

As soon as she got off the boat, Mei Terumi stretched her body. She must have been feeling suffocated after being on the boat for the past few days.

Zabuza on the side didn't say anything, but nodded in agreement.

Jianchuan Ju looked around but did not see any members of Minato's team. He didn't know whether they had already disembarked or had not come out of the cabin.

The system's untimely prompt interrupted Jianchuan Ju's looking around.

[Ding! Open the new country map for the first time, unlock the achievement "I'm here! I'll see you!"]

'The system's achievements are becoming more and more arrogant.'

"Teacher Qing, are we going directly to the Artisan Ninja Village?"

Mei Terumi asked Qing with a hint of meaning.

"Well, let's go over there now, is that okay? Mr. Shimotsuki."

Seeing that Qingdu had made the decision, he pretended to ask old man Shuangyue.

Jianchuan Ju secretly rolled his eyes in his heart.

"It's okay. You can arrange the itinerary. I will stay in the Artisan Ninja Village for a while in the name of exchange and learning."

It seems that Karuta Yagura had indeed informed Shimotsuki Ichiro in advance. Such cooperation does not seem like that of a client who paid the money.

However, it did make the investigation a lot easier for everyone.

"Exchange and learning? So your craftsmanship is really not as good as the craftsmen in the Artisan Village, old man?"

"You little brat, communicate! Do you know what communication means?"

Zabuza's words broke Shimotsuki Ichiro's defense, and he wanted to pick up a hammer and hit him twice.

However, the group did not chat for long. Perhaps it was because this pier was designed to facilitate trade in the Artisan Village and the distance was not too far. They arrived at the Artisan Village in just a few steps.

"The Artisan Ninja Village should have a lot of trade, right? Why would they place the village in the mountains?"

"The Artisan Village has a very ancient history and should have been here a long time ago. Before the major ninja villages were established, this was just a gathering place for artisans. At that time, the transactions were mostly small-scale sales of fine weapons, so there were no requirements for the surrounding environment."

Several people walked into the Artisan Ninja Village while talking. Maybe because the war was approaching, the weapons were selling well. At this moment, the Artisan Ninja Village seemed very lively, and merchants dressed in various costumes were everywhere on the street.

The group first found an inn to stay in, and then went straight to the Artisan Ninja Village office building in the center of the village.

As Jianchuan Ju had just stepped into the building, he saw a group of people coming out towards him, and his pupils suddenly shrank.

It was none other than Minato Namikaze and his four companions. Although their destination in the Country of Craftsmen was most likely the Craftsmen's Village, they did not expect to meet here again by such a coincidence.

"Minato-sensei, the letter has been delivered. Can we stay in the Land of Craftsmen for two days before returning?"

"Obito, shut up!"

"Kakashi, you!"

This time, Jianchuan Ju deliberately did not keep his eyes on the other person for too long. He just listened to the two people's fight and followed the others into the building.

Qing noticed that Jianchuan Ju's expression was unusual and asked him about it.

"That Konoha squad, they came from the Land of Craftsmen on the same ship as us, right?"

"Ah."

Jianchuan Ju obviously hadn't come to his senses yet and just nodded subconsciously.

"The blond man in the lead should be Konoha's Jonin Minato Namikaze, who is said to be very powerful. The white-haired boy is also reported in intelligence. He is the son of Konoha's White Fang, a genius who became a Chunin at the age of 6. His name is Hatake Kakashi." Qing introduced to his disciples casually. All this information was recorded in the Ninja Notes.

Of course Jianchuan Ju knew what his captain had said a long time ago, but he didn't understand why Qing said it at this time.

"Captain Qing, who is stronger between that Namikaze Minato and you?"

Qing didn't care about Zabuza asking such a question, he just pondered for a moment and said.

"It's not clear right now, but I'm not even a jonin at his age."

Minato Namikaze is not even 20 years old yet, 5 or 6 years younger than Ao, and Ao only became a Jonin two years ago.

I wonder if Namikaze Minato has mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique now. If he has, it is probably not a question of strength difference, but a question of how many seconds Qing teacher can hold on. Jianchuan Ju thought silently in his heart.
