Mizukage's Pokémon Ninja Scroll

Chapter 157 Lucky Eggs and Boiled Eggs

"Lu, what are you doing?"

"Brother Lu?"

Fuku and Yuuko, who were concentrating on their class, turned around at the same time to look at Tachibana Kanagawa, who had inexplicably gone mad.

This caused Tachibana Kanakawa's emotions to become somewhat disjointed again.

"Uh, it's nothing. I just suddenly had an idea for a new ninjutsu. You guys continue, continue."

Jianchuan Ju sat back down somewhat awkwardly and continued to stare blankly at the system panel.

However, upon seeing the last item on the system's prize page, which appeared to be a boiled egg categorized as food, Jianchuan Ju almost broke down again.

Fu and the other person didn't take it too seriously and continued with their previous lesson.

"But that's fine, anyway, we can only look at these prizes now; it's not very convenient to take them out."

Kanakawa Tachibana thought to herself, and then, filled with complaints about the system, she obediently accompanied Yu Gao in listening to the lecture.

After that, there was more training in shuriken throwing, as well as physical and sword techniques, so Tachibana Kanakawa was no longer as leisurely as before.

He finally completed his task of accompanying the prince in his studies.

Jianchuan Ju hurriedly wanted to go home and sort out these ridiculous "eggs" from the system lottery.

However, before leaving, Fu called out to Jianchuan Ju.

"Lu, starting tomorrow, we'll temporarily resume normal ANBU operations. You don't need to come here anymore."

The work that had lasted for more than two months was suddenly terminated, and Tachibana Kanakawa was a little taken aback.

"Captain Fu, is something wrong?"

Fu gently shook his head and replied.

"No, it's just that our team's rest period is over, and we need to go on an outward mission next."

Jianchuan Ju then realized.

When he first joined the Anbu, it just so happened that Fuku's squad was on rotation to take charge of missions in the village. The previous mission to chase Shennong was only a temporary one because Fuku was the teacher of the Six-Tails Jinchuriki.

Later, he was simply transferred to accompany the crown prince in his studies.

This made Tachibana Kanakawa used to it, believing that the main job of the Anbu was to patrol and run errands within the village.

In reality, for most Anbu members, running around the entire ninja world and carrying out various dangerous missions is the norm.

Normally, members of the Anbu disappear without a trace after joining, unlike Tachibana Kanagawa, who has time to accompany her former teammates to complete daily tasks.

What Fu didn't mention before was that Fu's team had actually ended their rest period last month and started going out of the village to carry out missions.

Furthermore, they were responsible for conducting in-depth investigations into military intelligence within the Land of Fire in coordination with the front-line battlefields—an extremely dangerous mission.

However, the Third Mizukage did not recall Fuku and Tachibana Kenkawa because the training of the Six-Tails Jinchuriki had only just begun.

Instead, he assigned another senior ninja in Team Fu to temporarily serve as the squad leader and lead the team to carry out the mission.

However, a few days ago, this unfortunate temporary captain died during a mission, and Fukuya also believed that the current teaching of Yugao was enough for him to digest for a while.

He was then recalled by the Third Mizukage to continue leading his squad.

With Fukuto, the teacher of Utakata University, being recalled, it was impossible for Tachibana Kanakawa, the teaching assistant, to continue living so leisurely.

"So, Captain Fu, should I still report to the Dark Guard base tomorrow morning?"

After all, Tachibana Kanagawa had only worked as an errand boy in the ANBU for a short period of time, and was not very familiar with the procedures for going out on missions.

"No need. Tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock, you and I will meet at the village entrance and set off together. The rest of the team are currently on standby at the front-line camp."

"Yes, Captain."

Jianchuan Ju never expected that, after going around in circles, she would end up on the front lines again.

"I wonder how things are going on the front lines lately."

In fact, Tachibana Kenkawa is not completely unaware of the current situation of the three wars.

In any case, Ao-sensei, who often trains with them, is currently in charge of the Sensory Class in the village, so he will more or less share information about the ninja world with the three kids.

However, in the past few months, the focus of the entire ninja world has been almost entirely on one person.

Minato Namikaze.

This guy who chased Jianchuan Ju so hard that he had to flee in a sorry state has been making headlines lately.

Previously, he had fought alongside Jiraiya against the Fourth Kazekage Rasa, the puppeteer Chiyo, and the Scorching Release user Pakura, among other powerful figures, on the battlefield of Sunagakure.

However, at that time, Minato Namikaze was overshadowed by the brilliance of his master, Jiraiya.

However, after that, from capturing the Scorching Release user Yotsuki, to displaying great power on the battlefield of Iwagakure, and then fighting alone against Raikage successor A and Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Killer Bee.

Apart from Kirigakure, the other three major nations have all experienced the power of Minato Namikaze.

The title "Yellow Flash" became famous throughout the ninja world.

Moreover, it just so happens that Qing and the three little ones have all met Minato Namikaze in person.

This also led to Ao always bringing up Minato Namikaze whenever he talked to the three of them about the war in the ninja world.

As a result, Jianchuan Ju didn't know much about other battlefields.

"Forget it, where we go on a mission isn't something I can decide, so why think about it so much?"

After giving up on thinking, Jianchuan Ju, with her mind blank, ran all the way home.

"Lanzi, I'm back~"

There was no response from inside, but Tachibana Kanagawa had expected this.

Recently, Lanzi has been training without paying attention to the time. If it weren't for Mei Terumi and Zabuza accompanying him, Tachibana Kenkawa would be a little hesitant to let the little frog continue like this.

After sitting down, I opened the system panel again.

Looking at one of the rewards above, Tachibana Kanagawa had already made up her mind.

"Let Lanzi use it. I have to go on a mission soon, and I probably won't have much time to cultivate."

"I was thinking of giving one to Blue Boy if I drew a magic candy next time, but this might be more effective."

With a thought, he took out the [Lucky Egg] from the three purple prizes and examined it closely in his palm.

It is pure white and looks no different from an ordinary egg.

However, holding it in your hand, you can actually feel a subtle sense of happiness.

"It really suits Lan Zai!"

Jianchuan Ju had naturally noticed Lan Zai's recent hard training, and he could roughly guess why the little frog was like this.

Aside from the usual care and secretly deciding to give Lanzi enhancement items after drawing them, Jianchuan Ju didn't have any other options.

I can only watch the little frog silently and feel sorry for it.

While this "Lucky Egg" hasn't completely solved the problem, the increased happiness and training boost are exactly what Lanzai needs right now.

However, after thinking it over, Jianchuan Ju decided not to tell Lanzi about the effects of the "Lucky Egg".

"How about we just put it in tomorrow's breakfast like a regular egg?"

Thinking of this, Jianchuan Ju took out the boiled egg from the white items as well.

"Sure, sure, they look pretty similar. One for me and one for Lanzi, but let's not get them mixed up!"
