Konoha Drunkard

"I'm similar to Minato, but I'm protected by my family and don't have as many opportunities to fight," the National Father-in-Law said with some disappointment.

"That's why I said, your education system and that of the Uchiha clan should have been changed a long time ago. Fortunately, your generation produced one genius and two prodigies. If you don't change it, we don't know if the next generation will even have any geniuses. It's so rigid!" Shanks didn't feel embarrassed at all when he was complaining about the other person's father in front of him.

"I agree with the teacher's opinion, and I will work hard in this area in the future." Hijikata actually took it seriously.

"..." Everyone looked up at the sky, thinking, "This is enough to kill any conversation."

"By the way, teacher, is the Raikage really that strong? Can he fight you for more than a month?" Minato broke the silence.

"Well, speaking of the Raikage, he's not as strong as he was a dozen years ago, after all, his body has started to degenerate. But probably because he uses lightning to stimulate his body every day, the degeneration isn't too great, and he can still fight the Eight-Tails hand-to-hand."

His strongest spear is much weaker now. At least a decade ago, he could still hurt me, but now, to be honest, I don't feel anything at all. Of course, it could also be because I've become stronger, haha! Shanks' little lesson has begun, and he doesn't forget to brag a bit at the end.

"Then, teacher, what should we do if we encounter this kind of enemy?" the National Father-in-Law asked.

"Well, I really didn't think of that. After all, there are all sorts of ninjas in the ninja world. Just like Sakumo counters Onoki, Chiyo counters Sakumo, and Tsunade counters Chiyo. But for an opponent like the Raikage, the only thing I can think of for now is to wear down his stamina!" Shanks shrugged.

"Is Lord Sakumo very good at controlling the Tsuchikage?" Yamanaka Inoichi asked.

"That's right. Sakumo's fighting style is fast and has strong explosive power. If Onoki, that red-nosed guy, couldn't fly, I reckon he would have been dead last time in the Land of Rain," Shanks said after thinking for a moment.

"Then, teacher, what kind of ninja do you think I should be like?" Minato's eyes sparkled so brightly they almost blinded Shanks.

"Well, I suggest you do what Sakumo does. Because your spatial awareness is very strong and your physical reflexes are very sharp, you can learn the Flying Thunder God Technique. You'll be even faster than Sakumo. But as for the explosive power of your attacks... that depends on you." Shanks suggested. Is Minato still Minato if he can't use the Flying Thunder God Technique? Are you kidding me! Kishimoto, the Great Emperor, had to reluctantly kill them off because he made them and the second male lead's brother too powerful.

"Uncle, what about me?" Rope Tree asked eagerly.

Shanks looked at his expectant eyes... "Hmm... because your talent is so well-rounded, give me some time to think about it."

Only Nara Shikaku understood what he meant and rolled his eyes at him. Being too good at everything means being good at nothing, which means being bad at nothing!

"Haha! Then you'd better think about it quickly, Uncle. In another year or two, I'll surpass you!" the man with the slapstick laughed loudly.

"..." Nara Shikaku looked up at the sky, "She's really naive."

"..." Shanks looked up at the sky, "If I hadn't helped you get rid of Hiruzen Sarutobi's giant, long staff, the Seven Star Sword that makes your legs go weak after just one use, you'd still be playing in the mud in Konoha right now!"

"Yeah! You can do it, keep it up!" After all, they're relatives, so Shanks shouldn't discourage them.

For several days in a row, the Ino-Shika-Cho trio accompanied the three boys on aimless wanderings, preparing for the time when Shanks and Raikage would be dismantling their duo again. The three boys were extremely excited, while the Ino-Shika-Cho trio looked worried. What they feared most now was that the two of them would be dismantling their duo. Not only were they afraid, but everyone else in Konoha and Kumogakure was also afraid. At first, it was okay, but for the past six months, they had been tortured to the point of being neither human nor ghost. Even the group of tough guys from Kumogakure were almost unable to withstand it.

It was still the same battlefield, but it was no longer the same. It was full of craters, and the surrounding earth was cracked.

"Superhuman strength weapon. Randomly punching without any strategy, invincible!"

"Hell Piercing - One Book Piercing Hand!"

"Superhuman strength, like a farmer tilling the fields at midday! An old tree with gnarled roots!"

"Hell Piercing - One Book Piercing Hand!"

........

"Why are all the teacher's move names so long and weird?!" Four kilometers away from the battlefield, the small Ino-Shika-Cho trio, along with three other energetic teenagers, were watching the battle. At first, they were incredibly impressed; they hadn't expected the two to be so destructive! But damn it, they couldn't see anything, only hear the sounds and feel the air currents from the collisions, and then nothing... What the hell was there to see?

However, Minato did discover a very important problem.

"This... it's imposing, isn't it? That's what my uncle said," Rope Tree said after thinking for a moment.

"..." The teenagers were speechless. What the hell is that kind of imposing presence?

.......

Over the course of more than a month, Minato and his crew finally began to understand what it felt like to be a ninja who had lived here for the better part of a year. During the day, there was constant banging and tremors, and at night, there was also a slight vibration. They couldn't sleep at night, and during the day it felt like there was a fly buzzing around their ears. It was exhausting.

"I really don't know how you guys survived," Rope Tree said to the smaller Ino-Shika-Cho trio, sporting huge dark circles under his eyes.

"Ah! You'll get used to it eventually. The noise level is dropping, they're about to finish!" Yamanaka Inoichi said.

Sure enough, after a while, there was no sound, and the terrain of the battlefield seemed to have sunk a bit.

"Haha! You're lucky, my little nephew just sent over a batch of good wine a few days ago!" Shanks said, lying on the ground and looking up at the sky.

"Haha, really? But that's perfect, I'm going back to the village after I finish drinking tonight. I haven't been back for more than half a year," Lei Yingai said.

"Really? That's a real shame. I could have gone back to see my wife and daughter." Shanks said with regret, but his expression showed no sign of regret. If he wanted to go back, it would have been as simple as using the Flying Thunder God Technique.

"Haha! Alright, I reckon we'll meet again in another six months. Your village's Hiruzen Sarutobi wouldn't be willing to send anyone to their death!" Raikage Ai sat up and laughed loudly. This war was the most comfortable one he had ever experienced. Regardless of whether others enjoyed it or not, he was happy as long as he was.

He was never one to enjoy war. War meant death, and he considered most of the village's ninjas like his own children; he couldn't bear to see any of them die. Now that the higher-ups wanted to start a war, he'd just bring his ninjas to the border to fight and have a few drinks. After all, it wasn't his money being spent, so he felt perfectly justified!

"Pretty much. Both Salai and that old schemer Onoki have explosive tempers. How could the Land of Rain possibly tolerate such a huge loss? I reckon Hanzo will also get involved, and with you Cloud Ninja joining in, Konoha will be in a four-way battle again!" Shanks said nonchalantly. He knew Kishimoto wouldn't let Konoha lose, otherwise, how would the story continue? Naruto is a grand drama drawn by Kishimoto about the Otsutsuki Kaguya family. Except for the Kaguya clan, who have bones and live in the Land of Water, the rest of the family are in Konoha!

"Haha, remember to bring plenty of wine!" As soon as Lei Ying finished speaking, his henchmen on both sides brought over a large quantity of wine.

"This is my nephew, the grandson of the First Hokage. The other two were also my students at the Ninja Academy. How about that, not bad, right?" Shanks said smugly.

"Haha, not bad, but not as strong as our Cloud Ninja." Mabu Jiushi laughed.

"Pfft! What? You can't compare? Tell me, besides my nephew and a rapper, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, who else do you have? Name one more. I'll drink a bottle." Shanks, upon hearing Azabu's words, sprayed the sake he had just drunk all over Nawaki's face.

"Haha! I know you can hear people's thoughts, no need to ask." Mabu Jiushi laughed loudly.

"Tch! After so many years of relationship, you still have to be on guard. As expected, smart people are often despicable in the end!" Shanks said disdainfully.

"Haha, don't you have a smart person by your side too! The Nara clan is famous throughout the ninja world for its brilliant minds," Raikage A laughed.

"His fear of his wife is well-known in the ninja world," Nawaki remarked.

"Hahahaha!" The surrounding ninjas burst into laughter.

"Haha, kid, I like you, bottoms up!" Lei Ying Ai laughed as he looked at Rope Tree.

"Old man! Don't call me kid, my name is Thousand Hands Rope Tree!" Rope Tree refused to back down.

"Haha, so it's the Senju clan. You've got guts. Come on, let's get this over with. If you can't finish, you're no good!" the Raikage joked. He'd been in the ninja world for so many years, and had even met Hashirama Senju several times. A mere Senju clan member couldn't intimidate him.

"Let's do it, who's afraid of who!" Rope Tree was so full of bravado, but after only two sips, he felt dizzy and lightheaded.

"Haha! You little brat, you're already like this after just two sips!" the burlap sack laughed loudly.

"Hey! Rope Tree, get to work! A man shouldn't let others say he's no good! Are you good or not?!" Shanks egged him on from the side.

"How...how could it not work? I...I'll drink it all for you!" Rope Tree shouted, his face flushed.

"...Big brother, this is the strongest liquor in Konoha, aren't you afraid of burning your brain...?" Nara Shikaku said speechlessly from the side.

"It tastes pretty good." A voice came from behind.

The ninjas around him turned beady.

"Pfft! Minato, have you never drunk alcohol before?" Upon hearing this, Nawaki spat out the water he had just drunk!

"Haha! I've never had this before, but it's quite delicious. How about I drink it for you?" Minato laughed.

Shanks stared at the empty bottle in front of Minato... "Could it be that I've unlocked another of Minato's attributes?"

"You blond brat, I like it! Come on! Keep drinking, I have more if you're not satisfied." Raikage was surprised that this blond, seemingly well-mannered kid could drink so much.

“Alright, Raikage-sama!” Minato laughed.

"Oh? Haha, an interesting brat." The Raikage looked at Minato and laughed. His talent was currently unknown, but with his calm mind alone, he could make a name for himself in the ninja world in the future.

"Konoha really has a lot of geniuses. The Hyuga clan brat, the Ino-Shika-Cho trio, and now there's this blond brat." Raikage A thought to himself, ignoring Nawaki.

Three days later, the battle in the Land of Lightning came to an end. Raikage A returned to the Cloud Village, and Shanks couldn't possibly be stupid enough to wait for him here for half a year.

"Phew! I can finally go home!" Nara Shikaku was in tears; he had never longed for home so much.

"Yeah! I'm going to sleep for three days and three nights when I get back, and I won't eat anything!" Little Fatty Ding burst into tears. He planned to go home and beg his dad not to let him come again; in just over half a year, he had become as thin as a man.

"Mmm!" Yamanaka Inoichi gave a wild thumbs-up, and the three thousand ragtag soldiers behind him were all excited. Although they had two big black eyes, they would rush up and fight even if Onoki stood in their way! I just want to go home and sleep.

During the six months on the battlefield, I could only get a few good nights of sleep every three months on average. I never realized that sleeping could be such a blissful thing.

.....

After several days, they finally saw the village entrance. The four giants of Konoha and some double-flower red sticks led a group of villagers to stand at the village entrance to welcome them.

The villagers were holding small flags that appeared out of nowhere, with the words "Welcome back, heroes!" written on them.

"Haha! Hello comrades! Hello fellow villagers! You've worked hard!" Shanks waved to the villagers on both sides as he walked.

Hiruzen Sarutobi and the people behind him were speechless. "We should have known better than to come and greet this bastard. It's so damn embarrassing!"

Ignoring Shanks, Hiruzen Sarutobi and his group looked at the ninjas behind him. What they saw startled them; all of them were walking on tiptoe, with huge eye bags, almost as long as Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"Weren't they drinking with the Cloud Ninja every day? How did they turn into this mess?" Jiraiya asked Kurenai Yuhi beside him.

"I don't know, but look at Nawaki and the others, they've only been gone for a little over a month, and they look just like this!" Kurenai Yuhi said, pointing to a boy who looked impotent.

"Huh? Who's that guy next to Shikaku and Inoichi? He's pretty handsome!"

"That's true, but where's that chubby little Ding? Did you see him?"

"Hey, now that you mention it, I also realized there's no Dingza."

"Chief Qiudao, have you seen your son?"

"Click...click, my son, my son isn't over there..." The Akimichi clan chief pointed at the handsome man next to Nara Shikaku and Yamanaka Inoichi, about to say that he was his son, but upon closer inspection, apart from the clothes being from their clan, nothing else looked like him!

"Where is my son? Where is my son? Lu Yi, where is my son?" Chief Qiu Dao was almost crying. Even a pig raised for more than ten years would become a source of affection, let alone a son.

“Isn’t he with Shikaku and Inoichi? He’s just lost weight!” said Nara Shika.

"What! That's my son?" Chief Qiu Dao stared wide-eyed at the handsome Ding Zuo.

"Hmm, there really is a bit of Choza's shadow in him, but I didn't expect Choza to be so handsome after losing weight," Sakumo Hatake said, stroking his chin.

"Son! What happened to you?!" The handsome Ding-Zodiac mom rushed to his side and hugged her son tightly. She had raised him with great care and care, and now, after only half a year, he had turned out like this!

"Mom, let's go back quickly. I want to sleep!" The handsome Ding Zuo almost burst into tears!

"Holy crap! Fatty Choji has changed his ways! The first thing he wants to do isn't to eat!" Jiraiya was stunned!

"Minato, what's going on? You've only been gone for a little over a month... why do you look like you haven't slept well?" Kurenai asked Minato.

"Um... every time the teacher fights the Raikage, it lasts for more than a month. The ground shakes day and night, and the banging sounds of their collisions keep ringing in my ears. I can't sleep at all. If it weren't for the fact that they would drink and be drunk for three days after each fight," Minato said.

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Shikaku with his large eye bags.
