Naruto: The Infinite New World

Chapter 395 Kakashi and Rin Nohara

The bright sunlight shone on Kakashi's face, causing him to squint.

"Kakashi."

Rin Nohara stood under the tree with her hands on her hips and called out to Kakashi in the tree.

"This is so troublesome."

Kakashi covered his face with the book in his hand, pretending not to hear.

Nohara Rin's forehead veins bulged slightly as she rapidly formed hand seals.

"Spiritual summoning technique!!"

With a loud "bang," countless pots and pans rained down on Kakashi's head, knocking him off.

Surrounded by a pile of kitchen utensils, Kaka reluctantly got up and pushed the utensils off his body.

"Lin".

Kakashi scratched his head, realizing he had no choice but to face his teammates.

He also wanted to avoid her, after all, if Nohara Rin asked why he didn't go back to Konoha.

He didn't know how to answer.

You can't exactly say that your teammate has become successful in the last two years and has become a traitor.

He looked down at his uniform.

The black uniform may not seem as defensive as a ninja vest, but it is actually a ninja weapon produced by the Land of Rain, possessing defensive capabilities far exceeding those of a ninja vest.

Touching my forehead, I realized that the headband I used to wear was gone.

Seeing Kakashi's troubled expression, Nohara Rin suddenly smiled and said, "Let's go eat ramen."

"I heard there's a new ramen place that's really good in the shopping district."

Kakashi looked at Nohara Rin's smile and thought that Obito would probably respond positively at this moment.

"Alright."

He expressed his helplessness.

"besides."

Rin Nohara swiftly snatched the book from Kakashi's hand, pointing to the title "Icha Icha Paradise" on the cover.

"You're not allowed to read these unhealthy books anymore!!"

His spiritual nourishment.

"That's a rare, discontinued item!!"

Kakashi roared and charged at Nohara Rin, trying to snatch back his spiritual nourishment.

But Nohara Rin moved swiftly, using Shave to appear in the distance.

The chakra in his hands transformed into flames, which gradually began to burn.

"Don't look!"

Nohara Rin put her hands on her hips and shouted coquettishly.

Kakashi knelt down in front of Nohara Rin, his hands supporting him on the ground.

"Have I really lost like this?"

Looking at the book turned to ashes, I realized that the author of this book had disappeared. It was a rare and precious book, and now it was gone just like that.

Who could know the sorrow in his heart?

She looked at Nohara Rin with sad eyes.

Are you trying to destroy Kakashi?

The new city of the Land of Rain.

Kakashi followed behind Nohara Rin, holding his head in his hands, his gaze fixed on the new city bathed in sunlight.

Shouldn't the name "Land of Rain" be changed?

This country seems to have gotten its name from the frequent and heavy rainfall throughout the year.

Nowadays, you can't even see a single cloud in the sky.

However, one person can be so powerful as to change the celestial phenomena.

It's truly unbelievable.

"Kakashi, that looks really good."

"Kakashi, let's try that."

"Kakashi, what's that?"

Listening to Nohara Rin's constant exclamations, she had completely lost the composure she once possessed as a ninja.

"This is so troublesome."

Kakashi complained, but a smile unconsciously crept onto his lips beneath the mask.

Perhaps this kind of life isn't so bad.

The two arrived at the ramen shop.

I just stepped inside.

Welcome!

With a loud shout, Kakashi looked at the ramen shop owner in surprise.

"You are half-earth."

"Yo, Kakashi."

A kind-looking man dressed in a chef's uniform was greeting Kakashi.

Kakashi remembered this person; he was once a Jonin in Konoha who was proficient in Earth Release.

Why did you open a noodle shop here?

What are you doing here?

Kakashi asked curiously.

"Haha, because I've always wanted to open a ramen shop, but it's not allowed in Konoha."

Ban Tu laughed loudly.

Those who can become ninjas cannot have a fixed business, because they need to be on call 24 hours a day.

Those ninja clans are better off, as there are always ordinary clan members who can run shops.

Even if those ninjas don't do missions, their clans will still give them money.

But these civilian ninjas are in a worse situation; if they don't have any missions, they can only sit around and eat their savings until they run out.

"The Land of Rain doesn't impose as strict restrictions on us as it used to."

Kakashi remained silent for a moment after hearing what the other person said.

The people of the Rain Country had told them about the rules of the Rain Country from the very beginning.

Those who wish to continue as ninjas must join the army.

As for the soldiers in the army, the requirement of the Rain Kingdom is that they must be ready to be dispatched at any time while in the military camp, and their time outside the military camp is their personal time.

Unless a major crisis or event occurs, they can even refuse the mission.

Even within the military camp, apart from the tasks assigned to their respective units, they do not accept personal commissioned tasks; they only need to train and wait for assignments every day.

They can get paid even without any missions, and they can choose to retire if they become disabled, reach a certain age, or have marital issues.

The Land of Rain is responsible for arranging the work.

It's completely different from the previous ninja mode.

If you really have to compare the two, Kakashi also thinks this model is better.

Those who no longer wish to be ninjas can return to normal life; there is absolutely no coercion involved.

It depends solely on personal preference.

Those who possess martial arts skills but have returned to a normal life need to report to Yu Jun every month.

To prevent dangerous incidents of injury.

"What are you talking about!"

Rin Nohara, who was waiting nearby, raised her hand.

"Boss, two bowls of miso ramen."

"Please wait a moment, both of you."

After finishing his sentence, Ban Tu got busy. For the time being, he was the only one in the shop, and there were quite a few customers.

"Protect the Rain Kingdom!"

A loud shout suddenly came from outside.

"Protect the Rain Kingdom!"

Immediately afterwards, a group of young voices rang out.

Kakashi and his companion were sitting by the window, looking outside.

He saw a member of the Hyuga clan waving a yellow flag, followed by a group of children wearing small yellow hats.

As the Hyuga clansman shouted, the children roared back excitedly.

"This place is wonderful."

As Nohara Rin watched the child walk, many people made way for him.

"It's just that Xincheng Elementary School has started."

Kakashi said calmly.

The Land of Rain has schools, which are divided into three levels: elementary school, middle school, and high school.

It's just different from how they learned throwing techniques, ninjutsu, how to kill, and how to resist harsh environments when they were young.

These schools teach knowledge.

Elementary school teaches theory, middle school focuses on building a foundation, and high school is where practical application begins.

Ninja knowledge was not even a significant part of the curriculum; instead, mathematics, physics, and chemistry were given particular emphasis.

The age for graduating from high school here is eighteen. If you want to go further, you have to join the army, but the age for joining the army is sixteen.

At least in the Land of Rain, it's impossible for children to go to the battlefield; layers of checkpoints filter out all the children.

Every time school starts, these children, led by their teachers, would walk around the new town reciting slogans.

Uchiha Kintoku, the traitor who usurped the position of Daimyo, spoke very frankly.

It's brainwashing.
