In Konoha, you call this a ninja tool?

With this fully automated workbench, my forging time has been greatly reduced.

Moreover, with this forging platform, Tianyu no longer needs to forge in the small forging shed in his backyard every time; he can enter his forging space anytime, anywhere to forge.

This is so convenient!

Is this the benefit of upgrading to intermediate blacksmith?

That's absolutely fantastic!

Chapter 38 Spring Festival

Eight-year-old Tianyu bears a heavy burden on his body.

It has already reached a weight of 200 jin (100 catties).

Over the next six months, Tianyu began to repeatedly attempt to open the Eight Gates Formation.

After several attempts, Tianyu discovered that his physical strength was finally sufficient to withstand the powerful impact of opening the Eight Gates without causing any damage to his body.

During these six months, Matt Kai was anything but idle.

Besides guiding him in the practice of the Eight Gates of Heavenly Martial Arts, the village also assigned him a considerable number of tasks.

After the Uchiha clan was wiped out, the village was severely short-handed.

And now is the time when Konoha's defenses are at their weakest, so even elite Jonin like Might Guy have many missions to do.

Another six months have passed.

Things have finally stabilized in Konoha.

Everything is back on track.

At this time, Tianyu had grown another year older, reaching the age of nine.

The weight he was carrying increased from 200 jin to 300 jin.

According to the previous plan,

He began to learn the Leaf Whirlwind technique from Might Guy.

In Konoha's training grounds,

"Konoha Whirlwind!"

Green chakra rose from Tianyu's legs, enveloping his entire lower leg and foot, before he kicked hard at the tree trunk in front of him.

Boom!

A loud bang was heard.

Wood chips flew through the air, and a tree as thick as a person could hug was kicked in half by Tianyu and fell down.

Matt Kai's eyes were filled with shock, and his mouth was agape in astonishment.

"Tianyu, your learning speed is too fast! You've mastered this move so quickly!" Might Guy couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"It's probably related to my consistent physical training."

In addition, I had already practiced the Leaf Whirlwind technique to a very high level beforehand.

Therefore, at this point, I have laid a solid foundation in both chakra concentration and the explosive power of taijutsu.

Learning it now feels like a natural progression.

Not much effort was wasted.

Might Guy nodded, fully agreeing with what Tian Yu had just said.

In martial arts training, learning techniques is not the most important thing; the most important thing is daily physical fitness training and building a solid foundation in martial arts.

However, Matt Kay added,

"Tianyu, you don't need to be so modest. I have never seen anyone achieve such physical skills at your age! Without a doubt, you are a genius!"

Genius?

Tianyu smiled slightly, not denying it.

At this moment, Might Guy received a notification from the Anbu to convene a Jonin meeting in the Hokage's office.

In the training ground, only Tianyu remained, continuing his training.

Even when Matt Kay wasn't by his side, he didn't relax at all.

At this moment, a small figure wearing a cheongsam walked towards the training ground where Tianyu was.

"Brother!" From a great distance, Tian Tian cupped her hands into the shape of a megaphone and called out to him.

Tianyu looked closely and realized it was his younger sister, Tiantian. "Tiantian, what brings you here?"

Tian Tian pouted, looking quite aggrieved, and said, "Brother, you haven't even forgotten what day it is today, have you?"

What day is today?

This is probably a rather fatal problem for all straight men like Tianyu, right?

Tianyu scratched his head, his mind blank for a moment, unable to think of anything.

"Your birthday? My birthday? Mom and Dad's birthday?!" he asked, guessing.

Tian Tian shook her head like a rattle-drum, angrily saying, "Our birthdays were last month, but Mom and Dad's birthdays aren't until winter! Your answer is ridiculous!"

Tianyu could only laugh awkwardly twice, "So what day is it today? Sister, just tell me."

With her hands on her hips and her two cute little buns bobbing on her head, Tian Tian said in a childish voice, "Today is the Spring Festival! We promised to go on a spring outing together!"

"oh oh."

Tianyu's face showed a look of sudden realization.

He hadn't paid any attention to festivals like the Spring Festival before.

In Konoha Village,

The Spring Festival is quite a lively festival.

Some events or festivals are held in Konoha Village, and there are also festival parades.

There are also many performances on the streets of Konoha. Villagers will dress up in beautiful kimonos and yukatas, stroll through the streets, buy things, or visit parks to admire the flowers.

Tian Tian and Tian Yu had participated several times before.

Repetitive activities get boring after a while.

The scenery in the wild is just right now.

It's the time when cherry blossoms are in full bloom.

A suggestion instantly came to him, and he said it to Tiantian.

"How about we invite a few people and go for a barbecue and picnic in the countryside?"

"A barbecue picnic?" Tian Tian's eyes lit up instantly. She jumped up excitedly and shouted, "Great! I've wanted to have a barbecue in the wild for ages!"

"Then let's divide the work. You go buy the ingredients, and I'll buy the cooking utensils and charcoal. Then we'll call on any friends we meet, and finally meet at the riverbank. How about that?" Tianyu arranged.

Tian Tian nodded immediately, "No problem! I'll go buy the ingredients right away!"

After saying that,

Every day is like a girl who is free and easy.

They hurried off into the distance, clearly looking forward to the picnic.

Tianyu also felt that his daily cultivation was extremely boring, almost like being an ascetic monk.

Occasionally, it's definitely worth taking a break.

Have some fun with your friends.

So, Tianyu put away his cultivation clothes, changed into his Heavenly Feather Robe, and headed towards the charcoal stall in the market.

Unexpectedly, he ran into an acquaintance right after buying charcoal.

Hinata was wearing a white kimono-style yukata.

The dress is printed with white magnolia flowers, giving it a simple and elegant look, revealing the demeanor of a well-bred lady.

"Oh, Tengo-kun, what a coincidence!" Hinata greeted Tengo first.

"It's Hinata! What a coincidence!" Tenyu smiled. "You look beautiful today!"

"Thank you, thank you..."

Hinata's face immediately flushed red.

She lowered her head shyly, not daring to meet Tianyu's gaze.

"What are you doing? Buying hair clips?" Tianyu looked curiously at Hinata's hands and found that she was holding several hair clips of different colors.

"Mm." Hinata nodded.

Then, mustering her courage, she raised her head and asked Tianyu.

"Heavens, Heavenly Emperor, which one do you think looks better? Can you help me choose one?"

“Okay.” Tianyu glanced at the hair clips in her hand, then picked out a pink cherry blossom hair clip and said, “I think this one is very pretty.”

"Ah!" Hinata exclaimed in surprise.

To her surprise, Tian Yujun actually chose the hair clip that she had liked the most before.

Could it be that she and Tianyu are telepathically connected?

Thinking of this, Hinata's face flushed even more.

"Boss, I want this hair clip."

"I'll pay."

Tengo acted before Hinata could.

He paid for the hair clip, then smiled and said...

"Today is the Spring Festival, so consider this my gift to you. Here, let me put it on you."
