I'm in Naruto, but the system says I'm in One Piece.

The two stood at the school gate and talked for a while. When Shuizhu and Nageki came out of the school and saw Shuimen, they came over to greet him.

However, when the two saw Hoshino Yu using the transformation technique, they were not as perceptive as Minato. They were just a little confused and even called him "senpai" directly.

After all, with such a large ninja headband on his head and dressed like an adult, it's perfectly reasonable for him to call her "senpai" (senior).

Seeing this, Shuizhu walked up to the water gate, approached, and whispered:

"Minato, do you know this senior? I've never heard of any adults in your family..."

Minato's face darkened upon hearing this.

Isn't this a veiled insult, implying he's an orphan with no family?

However, after covering his mouth and chuckling twice, he whispered in response to the water column:

"Senior Water Column, you actually know this person too."

"You know the Water Pillar too?" Nawaki chimed in, "I know almost everyone the Water Pillar knows, and I've never heard him mention knowing any ninjas..."

"Wait, could it be...?"

As soon as they finished speaking, Mizuki and Nawaki looked at each other, and then began to scrutinize Hoshino Yu, who was standing to the side with a beaming smile.

Seeing that the two had been looking at it for a long time without finding anything, Hoshino Yu looked a little helpless.

"Mizuki-senpai, Nawaki-senpai, it's me."

"Yu?!" the two exclaimed in surprise.

"Yes."

......

"Yu, what kind of missions have you been doing these days?"

"Yu, are the rewards for completing tasks high?"

"Yu, isn't it exciting to go on missions with Orochimaru-senpai?"

"Yu, my sister said that after I graduate, she'll introduce me to Orochimaru-senpai and have him become my teacher..."

These are some of the questions the three asked Hoshino Yu after they arrived in the forest.

Most of them are about ninja missions and things on the front lines.

No matter how exciting One Piece is, even with the appearance of an anomaly like the Water Pillar, the world of ninja academies is still fundamentally a ninja world. Anyone with a bit of ability will eventually have to become a ninja.

"Your sister? Is she Tsunade-senpai?" Hoshino Yu asked, looking at Nawaki.

"How did you know?!"

"What do you think? My teacher is Orochimaru-sensei. How could you not know his relationship with Tsunade-senpai?"

"Oh, that's true~" Rope Tree scratched his head and laughed awkwardly, "Then we'll be fellow disciples."

Seeing this, Hoshino Yu couldn't help but laugh:

"Yes, then you should call me senior."

Rope Tree's face darkened, and he pulled Water Column and the other two to train hard, while Hoshino Yu shook his head with a smile.

If the other party really becomes Orochimaru's disciple, will he, as his "senior brother," still be able to watch him get blown up?

Actually, he didn't want to get involved.

He doesn't yet possess unparalleled strength in the ninja world. Although he doesn't worry about daily necessities, he also doesn't have the energy to care about others, since he's not exactly a babysitter.

Minato and the Water Pillar are now like buddies, and Orochimaru is a teacher who is good to him. For now, the only ones he wants to protect are these three.

Of course, Orochimaru doesn't need his protection at all; he's the kind of guy who can live into the new era and still look like a young man.

Minato's fate is currently unclear, and Shuizhu has no idea what will happen to him.

After telling Minato about what had happened these past few days, the other person was also very amazed.

"Yu, so that means you've now completed five D-rank missions, one B-rank mission, and one S-rank mission?"

"Yeah, after I complete a few more D-rank missions, I'll ask my teacher to register me for the Chunin Exams."

Upon hearing this, Minato frowned slightly:

"So soon? Becoming a Chunin is far more dangerous..."

As if sensing Minato's worry, Hoshino Yu joked:

"Time waits for no one. With war imminent, if we don't quickly improve our strength, the next time we meet will probably be at the cemetery."

"Minato, you need to start training soon too."

Seeing this, Minato could only nod in response.

Hoshino Yu saw that Minato had used the ninjutsu he had given him a few days ago, and then walked towards the location of the Water Pillar and the others.

At this moment, Shuizhu and Shengshu were practicing together.

Although it was just kids fighting, they all possessed chakra and could leap back and forth between trees, making them far stronger than ordinary adults.

This is the huge difference between ninjas and ordinary people.

An adult who has never trained is 200% no match for a child who has refined and trained their chakra.

The strengthening effect that chakra brings to the human body is indeed powerful.

The final result was a draw between the two. At this stage, the Water Pillar has also learned two Water Release ninjutsu. With the help of his shuriken and kunai, he is evenly matched with Nawaki, who is a year ahead of him.

Seeing the two sitting on the grass panting, Hoshino Yu instantly appeared beside them.

The reason I came here is to ask what this Navy Captain Morgan is.

"Wow, you two seniors, your skills have improved a lot in just a few days!"

"There's still a big gap between us, Yu!" Water Pillar grinned, showing his white teeth. "Just call me Water Pillar. I told you when we first met that you always call me 'senpai,' which made me feel a little embarrassed..."

Seeing this, Hoshino Yu agreed.

Rope Tree was too tired to talk much.

After exchanging a few words, Hoshino Yu thought for a moment and then asked:

"Hey, Water Column, have you encountered any strange people these days, or had any conflicts with them?"

"Anyone you clashed with?" Shui Zhu asked, somewhat puzzled. He took off his straw hat and fanned himself with it before saying uncertainly, "It seems like no one?"

"What do you mean, 'no'?" Rope Tree, who was lying on the ground, turned his head and said, "That arrogant ninja we ran into outside the school a couple of days ago, don't you remember?"

"He's just a newly graduated ninja brat, what's so great about him? If it weren't for the teacher being there, I would have given him a good beating!"

Hey, here comes Colonel Monca, isn't he?

However, which ninja would dare to go against you, the crown prince of the Senju clan?

Hoshino Yu suddenly thought of the ninja who bullied Kushina in the original work.

But the most embarrassing thing was that the ninja couldn't beat Kushina, who had only been in school for a short time.

After clarifying the situation, he immediately identified the target.

If it really is the ninja who bullied Kushina, then this matter is easy to handle.

Hoshino Yu immediately unleashed his full Observation Haki, hoping to find that familiar person—the class bully who was always bullied by Kushina back in school.

It was that kid in the class named Maruyama Isamu, and the one who got beaten up by Kushina later was that kid's ninja brother.

Just as he was pondering this, he keenly sensed that Kushina, two kilometers away, was walking alone in a certain direction to the south with a tense expression.

"Follow me, Mizuki-senpai."

"Where to?"

"Of course, I'll take you to do some interesting things."

As he spoke, Hoshino Yu looked at Minato, who was training on the water not far away, and shouted loudly:

"Minato, come with us somewhere!"
