Naruto: I get stronger by drawing lots

With nothing much to do, Minato Namikaze has started "going to work" again.

Tsukiki responded to Minato Namikaze's words with a look of disgust.

Doing tasks is really not suitable for him.

Too easy is too boring, too difficult is exhausting. I really don't know why I chose to become a ninja.

"It's not going to be long. I've already rested for six days. I just ran into Jiraiya-sensei. He said we'll meet at Training Ground No. 9 tomorrow."

"cut."

Minato Namikaze looked helplessly at Tsukiki, who was making no attempt to hide his reluctance.

They've rested for six days since their previous mission, which is more than enough. Ninjas should always be on missions, both to support themselves and to contribute to the village.

For Minato Namikaze, a native of the village who dreamed of becoming Hokage, contributing to the village was naturally a very willing thing to do.

But for Tsukito, he didn't have much of an expression towards Konoha; it was just that Konoha had the best environment in the entire ninja world.

Unlike other ninja villages, which are either shrouded in sandstorms or filled with blood mist, this village is not like other ninja villages.

With this comparison, Konoha's advantages are clearly evident.

"Well, that's the path of a ninja."

Tsunade, who was standing nearby, patted Tsukiki and laughed.

She went through the same thing back then, and she was among the top performers in the village in terms of the tasks she completed.

"trouble."

Yue Shu said something and continued eating her breakfast.

Tsukiki genuinely found it troublesome. Most of the main characters at this time were in the same squad, and Tsukiki didn't believe that going on a mission would be so easy.

Maybe it'll be like last time, with another "simple" task disguised as something else.

Compared to last time, I was covered in injuries, exhausted, and one wrong move and we were all wiped out.

This isn't some game; there's no setting where you can respawn in minutes or even seconds. Once you're gone, you're really gone.

After finishing his meal, as usual, with nothing to do, Tsukiki, as bored as ever, watched the master and apprentice begin their medical ninjutsu training from his hammock.

Oh, and now there's a golden retriever too.

It seems that Minato Namikaze has already been taught basic skills such as climbing trees and wading through water by Jiraiya, and now he is practicing the basics.

In the original work, Minato Namikaze was the only commoner Hokage in Konoha's history, and it must be said that his success was well-deserved.

Not only is he highly talented, but he is also far superior to others in terms of self-discipline and training.

Looking at the blonde figure in front of me.

It seems that Tsukiki has never seen Minato Namikaze slack off. He spends most of his free time training, which is completely the opposite of Tsukiki.

Unfortunately, Tsukiki has a cheat code, so Minato Namikaze probably won't be able to defeat him.

"By the way, Tsukiki, could you teach me that ninjutsu?"

As Tsukiki lay there, he suddenly heard Minato Namikaze's voice.

"What?"

Tsukiki glanced at Minato Namikaze, who had already arrived beside her, with a pure smile.

"It's that unsealed ninjutsu, the one that looks like a ball."

"The Rasengan?"

"Is it called Rasengan? It's a nice name, but Thunderstorm Impact Ball would be better."

"Your naming conventions are still the same old thing. Luckily, the ninjutsu nowadays all have names."

Seeing Minato Namikaze's slightly excited expression, Tsukiki sighed helplessly.

Minato Namikaze is a genuinely warm-hearted man with a good personality, good looks, and is also a genius. However, surprisingly, Minato Namikaze has a chuunibyou (delusional) soul inside him.

The names he came up with for his moves were really long and awful, with a strong sense of chuunibyou (a Japanese term for someone with delusions of grandeur).

"It's not that serious, is it?"

When Mizuki spoke of his name, Minato Namikaze, unusually, offered a rebuttal, as he genuinely thought the name was cool.

But in Yue Shu's heart.

--Perhaps this is what it means to be secretly passionate.

"Sure, I'll teach you."

"Really? Thank you."

Minato Namikaze was overjoyed when Tsukiki agreed.

"So, why do you specifically want me to teach you this ninjutsu?"

Tsukiki suddenly thought of something and then asked Minato Namikaze.

Minato Namikaze had anticipated that Tsukiki would ask such a question, and immediately began to think about it.

Then a while later--

"It's just my intuition, I feel like this ninjutsu of yours is perfect for me, I can't really say for sure."

"is it?"

--As expected of you.

Tsukiki chuckled softly, Minato Namikaze's intuition was right.

This dumpling is a top-tier divine skill that can continuously evolve and transform. When combined with the Flying Thunder God Technique that Minato Namikaze learned, it becomes even more formidable.

The three generations of hermits of Mount Myōboku all lived in shrines shaped like dumplings.

As the one who should have been the creator of the jutsu, Minato Namikaze undeniably created an incredible ninjutsu, although he no longer needs to fulfill that role.

Tsukiki naturally wouldn't be stingy with the Rasengan; it originally belonged to Minato Namikaze, but he had gotten it first.

Minato Namikaze was Tsukiki's first friend, and Tsukiki was happy to help him increase his strength, at least to the point where he would be stronger than in the original story, so that he wouldn't die young during the Nine-Tails' rampage.

Nobody wants to watch their friend die, right?

And so, Tsukiki explained it according to Jiraiya's teaching method in the original work.

"Hmm—looks like I'll have to go out and buy some balloons."

"Go ahead, go ahead, and buy dinner while you're at it, so Jingyin doesn't have to go again."

"well."

Minato Namikaze smiled helplessly, then prepared to leave.

Minato Namikaze was incredibly excited about the Rasengan and couldn't wait to learn it.

I don't know what came over me, it was just an intuition that made Minato Namikaze choose the Rasengan.

Minato Namikaze didn't understand either, so he simply stopped caring.

His close friend, Tsukiki, did just that.

Regardless of all that, let's put those things aside for now.

As for other things, the first thing to do is, of course, what needs to be done right now.

Living in the present moment is something Minato Namikaze gradually learned by following Tsukiki.

In Minato Namikaze's opinion, perhaps his best friend, Tsukihime Himegami, was truly the happiest person in the entire Hidden Leaf Village.

Eat when you want, sleep when you want, don't have many worries, and are even strong enough that they don't need to work as hard as others.

Minato Namikaze knew that there were two men in Konoha, a father and son, wearing green bodysuits, training day and night. The intensity of their training was terrifying, and even Minato had never heard of it before.

Minato Namikaze admired and thanked them. These two people taught him the importance of never resting and always striving.

It's impossible for an ordinary person not to feel jealous of Tsukiki; even Minato Namikaze went through that phase, but he didn't indulge in that emotion, which is undesirable.

Minato Namikaze wouldn't allow himself to have feelings of jealousy or other inappropriate emotions.

Since meeting Tsukiki, Minato Namikaze has never won, while the Yellow Flash in the original work was undefeated on the battlefield.

All my defeats in this life came from Yue Shu.

The blond boy took a deep breath and strode toward his future, despite the seemingly unattainable monster looming ahead of him.

This is Minato Namikaze's ninja way.

Pursuing someone's ninja way.

Chapter 51: The Second Mission

"Nine-tailed Fox".

"One of the calamities of the ninja world, it wreaks havoc on the world, symbolizing evil, destruction, and hatred."

Kushina looked at the legends about the Nine-Tails that she had found.

This is her destiny, an inescapable destiny.

"Kushina."

Kushina was hiding in her room when suddenly she heard the voice she wanted to hear.

That voice was very young, but it was full of boundless hope.

--Moon Tree.

Kushina got out of bed, drew back the curtains, and peered outside.

Four people were standing outside the window.

One big and three small.

The person who had just called him was standing there with a lazy expression.

It's not surprising, after all, that's just his personality. At least his shouts can still be heard, right?

"Kushina, off on a mission."

Mikoto waved her hand and called out softly.
