Naruto: I get stronger by drawing lots

"I won't lose either!"

"No, I give up."

Tsukiki raised her hands.

"I'm so tired, so incredibly tired."

Yue Shu sighed.

"What are you talking about? You can't be so arrogant; you still need to continue your training!"

Minato Namikaze said something unlike his usual self; perhaps it really was Tsukiki who activated Minato's hot-blooded switch.

"All right!"

Looking at the four little guys in front of him, Jiraiya clapped his hands.

"Let's go eat barbecue, it's on me, as a way to welcome our new teammate."

Zilai also laughed.

"Thank you, Jiraiya-sensei."

"I was just a little hungry."

"Thank you, Jiraiya-sensei."

"Hey."

Chapter Twenty-Seven: The First Mission

Early morning is the best time of day.

In the past life of Yue Shu, people often said this phrase.

Although it's unclear whether it's true or not, Tsukiki has always denied it.

The reason is actually quite simple.

Why did you get up instead of sleeping?

Isn't that a bit too much of a waste of that warm, cozy bed?

So when the alarm rang at seven o'clock, Yue Shu hesitated for half a second before decisively turning it off and going back to sleep.

What? You're asking why Yue Shu sets an alarm for 7 o'clock?

Need I say more? Because we passed the exam yesterday, Konoha's first four-person team has officially started operations.

The first task was to gather at seven o'clock in the morning to do it.

As for the Moon Tree...

task?

Is sleeping important?

If it's a system mission, that's fine; it's just an ordinary ninja mission. Why sacrifice your precious sleep time?

Therefore, Tsukiki strongly protested against the 7:00 AM assembly and took action to protest.

Speaking of the mission--

Tsukiki suddenly opened her tightly closed eyes.

It seems I get another chance to win a prize after completing the task!

Yue Shu finally remembered what all that special training had been for.

Isn't it all just to complete the system's tasks and get that chance to win a prize?

The excitement flashed by, and Yue Shu closed her eyes again.

You can draw a lottery anytime, and there's no rush to draw it when you wake up. Besides, you have to shower, change clothes, and wash your hands before doing something like this. I should go to sleep first.

With that in mind, Yue Shu felt at ease and decided to take a nap.

"Good morning."

"Good morning."

Hearing a "good morning" from her ear, Yue Shu didn't react immediately, but subconsciously responded.

A few seconds later.

"and many more!"

Tsukiki suddenly opened her eyes again.

As expected, Yue Shu gave a wry smile.

In his eyes were Jiraiya with his white hair, and Minato Namikaze, Nami Koto, and the others following behind him.

Unexpectedly, all of these guys ended up at Yue Shu's house.

"Good morning."

After a second of silence, Yue Shu spoke, uttering the same words she had just used in her response.

"What time is it? Still sleeping!"

As expected, Jiraiya went berserk, and the whole room seemed to tremble.

Then-

"Jiraiya, you woke me up first thing in the morning, you're dead meat!"

One mountain is higher than another; just as Jiraiya lost his temper, the tiger in Tsukiki's house began to roar.

Tsunade's roar reached Jiraiya, who shuddered and turned pale.

It seems that his fear of Tsunade is ingrained in his very bones.

"Hurry up and go!"

Jiraiya's face turned panicked at the sound of his ears twitching. He grabbed Tsukiki, who was still in bed, and ran away.

"teacher."

Minato Namikaze and Nami Koto were dumbfounded; Jiraiya had run away incredibly fast.

The footsteps were right next to their ears, and before the three of them could even move, Yue Shu's door was pulled open.

A tall, beautiful woman stood there with a displeased expression, and there seemed to be a grid pattern on her forehead.

The black aura emanating from its body frightened the three children, causing them to shrink to one side.

It's said that women are not to be trifled with, and Tsunade, whose beauty sleep has been disturbed, is even more terrifying.

"Jiraiya, you better not get caught by me!"

Looking at the open window, Tsunade shouted out before leaving.

Meanwhile, Minato Namikaze and Nami Koto, who were hiding to the side, finally understood why Jiraiya was so afraid of Tsunade.

That sheer aura is frightening.

After Tsunade left, the five members of Jiraiya's team finally reunited.

When Minato Namikaze and Nami Kotoko arrived, Tsukiki already had two bumps on her head and stood next to Jiraiya with a helpless expression.

Tsukiki said he had no choice. He was neither as strong nor as tough as Jiraiya, and his sword was not on his person; it was still in his room. How could he possibly be a match for Jiraiya?

"Haha, what a great look! It suits you perfectly."

Yue Shu was wearing pajamas, with two lumps on her head, a bitter and helpless expression on her face, and a hint of sleepiness in her eyes.

Kushina immediately started mocking him when she saw this.

"When you're in the moment, you're not in control of your own destiny."

Yue Shu sighed.

Mikoto and Minato Namikaze chuckled softly to themselves.

Jiraiya was completely speechless.

This guy is so small, yet he acts like he's been through a lot and seems very mature.

"Cough cough."

Jiraiya coughed, drawing his attention to himself.

"Alright, our team is now officially formed, so let's begin our first mission."

The four members of the Moon Tree group looked at Jiraiya.

"That's right, our team's first task is to clean the streets."

"－－－"

"what?"

Kushina and Mikoto were stunned, while Tsukiki sighed.

Tsukiki had already guessed this would happen.

In the original story, it was similar. After becoming a genin, there wouldn't be any dangerous missions immediately. They would mostly do odd jobs in the village. If it were during wartime, they would be sent to the battlefield. But now that World War II has just ended, there will be more than ten years of peace. Naturally, Tsukiki and the others won't have any dangerous missions to do. So, they will naturally do these kinds of odd jobs. This is also a major reason why Tsukiki doesn't want to get up and go to the assembly.

It's not worth sacrificing sleep time just to do some odd jobs.

"Everything starts small and grows big, and the same goes for ninjas. Cleaning the streets is also a contribution to the village, and there's even a reward for it."

Minato Namikaze has been going through this for a month now and is already used to it, although given his personality, he would be quite happy about it.

“Minato is right. Even the Third Hokage went through this, and so did we.”

Jiraiya nodded, agreeing with what Minato Namikaze said.

"OK then."

Kushina responded with some disappointment, while Mikoto wasn't too disappointed to begin with; cleaning the streets was a good job.

As for Tsukiki, he glanced at Jiraiya with disdain.

That's absolutely a lie. Before that, the ninja world was constantly in war. The First and Second World Wars came very quickly and were extremely fierce. After all, even the First and Second Hokage died. The First and Second Hokage of each ninja village were top-notch ninjas, and they still died in the war. It has to be said that the First and Second World Wars were indeed fierce, although they were not as fierce as the Fourth World War.

"Alright, stop complaining. In the beginning, the building was built from the ground up."
