Konoha: I have a gravity training room

Tenten will probably like it. Even though she is still young, with her talent as a weapon master, she will not refuse new ninja tools.

By then, everyone will be familiar with each other. When Tiantian graduates and enters Kai Class, Xia Mu will be able to get to know Matt Kai.

The Eight Gates of Ninjutsu is beckoning!

"Hey! Natsuki, your smile looks a little obscene." Shino reminded.

"Ah? Oh, I was just thinking about happy things." Xia Mu explained awkwardly and continued to draw the design with his head down.

Although Shino was confused, he didn't ask any further questions. He just didn't understand what happy thing could make someone show such a lewd expression, just like Naruto would occasionally do when he fantasized about Sakura.

After school in the afternoon, Xia Mu said goodbye to his friends and waited near the school gate.

Students from other grades left the school one after another, and soon Xia Mu finally arrived.

Tiantian was seen with a pair of small buns on her head, wearing a pink short jacket that was one size smaller and dark green cropped pants. She looked cute but also capable.

Sure enough, everyone was cute when they were young.

So does Sasuke, and so does Tenten.

Xia Mu did not go forward immediately, but followed behind silently. However, he did not notice that Shino, who should have gone home, was hiding behind a telephone pole not far behind.

Shino looked at Natsuki's back and hesitated for a moment: "I originally thought that Natsuki was not quite right, so I was worried and planned to take a look secretly. I didn't expect Natsuki to follow a girl, just like Hinata hid and followed Naruto. No wonder he showed a lewd smile before, it seems that there is a girl he likes. As a good friend, I must follow him and take a look!"

Thinking this way, he did not rush, but walked slowly.

He had left a female insect on Xia Mu a long time ago, so it was easy to find Xia Mu. There was no need to follow so closely to avoid being discovered by Xia Mu.

Xia Mu had no idea that Shino was following him, he just followed Tiantian calmly.

Until I saw Tiantian walk into a ninja tool shop and shouted in a tender voice: "Dad, I'm back."

Xia Mu was sure that Tenten had arrived home, and that his family really did run a ninja tool shop, otherwise they wouldn't be so rich. Judging from the number of ninja tools that Tenten lost during the Chunin Exam, it would be enough to bankrupt the three people in Kakashi's class.

He walked straight in and saw the wealthy owner smiling at Tiantian.

Tiantian's parents were not mentioned in the original work. They were probably ordinary people. It is not known whether they died before Tiantian graduated. However, Tiantian has a good personality. Except for worrying about his own strength, he has always been optimistic. He is not as uneducated as Sakura, so he is not an orphan.

When the shop owner saw Xia Mu and realized that he was a little kid, he immediately put away his smile and said, "Little guy, what's the matter?"

Xia Mu walked straight towards Tian Tian, ​​showing what he thought was a brilliant smile: "Hello, my name is Xia Mu, and I'm in the first grade. Can I know your name?"

Tiantian was stunned, but still replied: "Hello, my name is Tiantian."

Xia Mu took the opportunity to praise: "Tiantian? The name is cute, and the person is cute too."

Tiantian was suddenly praised and blushed for a moment, obviously shy. It was nothing to be praised for being cute by elders, but it was the first time for her to be praised for being cute by a boy of the same age.

The shop owner's eyes flashed with ferocity, and his tone was like nails scratching glass: "Boy! What the hell is going on with you!"

This guy must be trying to seduce his precious daughter! He's courting death!

Xia Mu took out the design drawings and handed them to Tiantian: "I designed two special shurikens and wanted to ask your store if you want them. But uncle owner, you are not a ninja, so you definitely don't understand. Let me show it to Tiantian."

The shop owner was furious: "My family runs a ninja tool shop, and you say I don't know anything about ninja tools?"

Xia Mu ignored the shop owner and started explaining when he saw Tiantian looking through the design drawings:

"First up is this poison shuriken. It's made from fragile wood or porcelain, and filled with poison or a drug. Once thrown, if the enemy blocks with a kunai, the shuriken will explode. Even if they don't block, you can detonate it with a hand seal. It's like poisoning the enemy right in the face, and the effect is definitely not bad!"

"There's also this wire shuriken. It has a wire mechanism installed inside. It's thrown not to hit the target, but to embed itself in the ground or tree trunks around the enemy. When the mechanism is activated, it shoots out a hooked wire that snags on the enemy's clothes or skin, effectively pinning them down and creating an opportunity for attack!"

Tiantian nodded repeatedly as he flipped through the pages.

Don't look at her young age, she is really talented in ninja tools. Not only in their use, but also in their design, she has a good eye.

The shop owner came over to take a look, then snorted, "Boy, you have a good idea, but your idea has been exposed. Even if I don't buy your design, I can still make it..."

"Dad! How could you do this!"

Tiantian, however, stood with his hands on his hips and scolded, "This must have been designed by Xia Mu with great effort. Even if you don't buy it, you can't plagiarize his design. Besides, I like these two shurikens, I must buy them. After I make them, I won't sell them. I will use them all by myself!"

The shop owner immediately backed down: "Dad is just trying to scare him. If he keeps saying he'll buy it, then we'll buy it!"

Although he said that, he was crying silently. He didn't expect that his own daughter would speak for outsiders. It was all the fault of this little brat!

Tiantian was finally satisfied and smiled at Xia Mu, "Xia Mu, how much do you plan to sell these two designs for?"

Xia Mu said seriously: "I don't know either. Tiantian should know better about this. Tiantian, you are so cute, you won't cheat me, right? I trust Tiantian."

"Cute or something..."

Tiantian blushed again, thought for a moment, and said, "How about this, I think both of these shurikens are great, so I'll buy them for 20,000 taels each, giving you a total of 40,000 taels. How about that?"

Xia Mu was a little surprised and asked uncertainly: "Is it really okay to give so much? Should I ask your dad?"

When he taught Shino how to make seals with one hand, he only earned 100,000 taels. He also asked specifically and found out that the price was set by Shino's father, which was already a high price.

Unexpectedly, these two shuriken designs were sold for 40,000 yuan.

Tiantian said with certainty, "I think it's worth the price, so feel free to take it. Besides, you're so young and you've designed such great ninja tools. I believe you'll be able to design even better ones in the future, so you must sell them to me when you do!"

Oh, this price is for making friends.

Do you understand the ways of the world at such a young age?

Xia Mu said nothing more, silently took the money the owner handed over, and then stated the purpose of today's meeting: "So, Tiantian, we are friends now, right? Can I come to see you often in the future?"

Chapter 20 It’s Not Shameful to Be with a Rich Woman

He often comes to see Tiantian to make his presence felt. When Tiantian graduates, it is natural for him to go to Kaiban. Wouldn’t that be how he gets to know Might Guy?

However, there is still a long time before Tiantian graduates, so we have to wait.

It would be great if I could meet Might Guy someday. I would just shamelessly go up to him and make friends with him, and ask him for some knowledge on physical techniques. Once we get to know each other well, I would ask him for advice on the Eight Gates Ninjutsu.

The key point is, it’s impossible to encounter this!

Konoha Village is said to be a village, but it is actually very big. How can you just meet someone casually?

It's not impossible to deliberately ask, but a child suddenly asking about a stranger jonin is very suspicious. It's not uncommon for children to act as spies these days.

In short, the Tiantian line is the safest and you should grasp it well.

And just as Tiantian said, if there are good ninja tool designs in the future, they can be sold. Wouldn't this solve the problem of living expenses?

Kill two birds with one stone!

Tiantian blushed a little when he heard this, and nodded subconsciously in agreement: "Well, we are friends, you can come to me whenever you want."

Xia Mu was satisfied and said goodbye with a smile: "Then I'll go home first, goodbye."

After leaving the ninja tool shop, Xia Mu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing that it was getting late, he hurried home. After taking a few steps, he felt something was wrong. Suddenly, he turned around and saw Shino, who was wrapped up well, standing behind him.

"Shi, Shino? Why are you here?" Xia Mu felt a little guilty for some reason.

"I'm sorry, Xia Mu, I know everything."

Shino's sunglasses were shining. "I didn't follow you on purpose. I just noticed you were acting strangely and was a little worried, so I followed you. I didn't mean to pry into your secrets, you have to believe me!"

Xia Mu was a little confused: "My secret? What secret do I have?"

Shino had an expression that said, "Don't hide it from me!" "You followed a girl in a pink short coat, just like Hinata often follows Naruto. And you smiled obscenely today, just like Naruto imagined that Sakura liked him. So, you like the daughter of the owner of this ninja tool shop! Don't worry, I won't tell anyone!"

I didn't...

Xia Mu didn't expect to be misunderstood by Shino, and didn't know how to explain it for a moment.

Thinking about it now, it seems that his behavior is shameful.

First he followed Tiantian, then he approached Tiantian under the pretext of selling her ninja tool design drafts, and praised the girl for her beauty as soon as they met. Isn't this the same as Naruto?

But Xia Mu praised Tiantian for being cute, firstly because Tiantian was indeed cute, and secondly, he was just trying to coax the little girl.

Now that Shino said that, it feels different. It's really torturous!

Tiantian is only seven years old!

"But, it doesn't seem impossible!"

Xia Mu touched his chin and thought carefully.

Speaking of the four beauties of Konoha, Sakura Haruno is a useless love-brained person, Ino Yamanaka is obsessed with looks, Hinata is timid and cowardly and is devoted to Naruto, and only Tenten has the best personality.

Although many Naruto fans support the couple Tenten and Hyuga Neji, there is actually no description of any emotional connection between the two. They may have had feelings for each other, but before it developed into love, Neji died, and Tenten never got married, which made many Naruto fans very regretful.

However, even if Hyuga Neji hadn't died, he probably wouldn't have considered getting married.

Neji himself has suffered from the rules of the main family's branch, so how could he marry and have children? Is he going to watch his children being caged and continue to be slaves of the main family?

Rather than that, it’s better to live alone!

As for Naruto's promise to change the Hyuga clan after becoming Hokage, what has changed? It's nothing more than that his status and strength have increased, and the Hyuga clan gave him face and didn't trap Boruto and Himawari. Isn't the Hyuga clan still the same?

Tenten and Hyuga Neji are destined to have no result!

In this case, maybe I have a chance?

You know, Tiantian is really good, and she is also a rich woman. It’s not shameful to be with a rich woman!

Furthermore, once Tenten graduates, he'll be Might Guy's apprentice. As Tenten's partner, wouldn't it be even more legitimate for me to want to learn the Eight Gates?!

Xia Mu thought about this, reached out and patted Shino's shoulder, and said solemnly: "Shino, thank you. I didn't think so much at first, I just went to sell the ninja tool design draft. But when you mentioned it, I suddenly felt that Tiantian was really cute, so I'm determined to marry this rich woman, you have to help your brother!"

Shino was stunned. From what Xia Mu said, did he misunderstand?

But, it seems that there is no misunderstanding, Xia Mu really wants to pursue the girl in the pink short coat!

So Shino nodded and agreed: "Okay, if you need help in the future, just let me know. This concerns my friend's lifelong happiness, and I will do my best to help him!"

"Haha! Thank you so much! Let's go eat Ichiraku Ramen, it's my treat!"

The next day, school was over again.

Xia Mu dragged Shino to Tenten's family's ninja tool shop.

As soon as the shop owner saw Xia Mu, he immediately glared at him: "Boy, you come here quite often! I'm warning you, don't think about taking advantage of my Tiantian!"

Xia Mu chuckled and pointed at Shino and said, "Uncle owner, this is my friend Aburame Shino."

Aburame Shino? Aburame clan! She really is, judging by her outfit!

The shop owner immediately calmed down and asked with a smile, "Hello, welcome. What tools do you need?"

Shino said coolly, "Let's look for Tenten."

Xia Mu quickly added, "I thought I'd made those two shurikens in a day, so I came to see the results. Is Tiantian back?"

The shop owner wanted to refuse, but since Tenten recognized Natsuki as his friend, and since they were with the Aburame clan, it was hard to object. Furthermore, as a normal person, the shop owner also hoped that Tenten would make more friends, especially with the children of ninja families, including the Aburame clan, so that Tenten would be taken care of when she became a ninja.

So he said, "Those two shurikens are indeed ready. Tiantian just came back and is preparing for testing in the backyard. Come with me."

Having said that, he led the two of them towards the backyard.

Xia Mu looked around as he walked, and could only say that they were indeed from a wealthy family. Although the ninja tool shop outside looked small, the area of ​​the backyard was quite large, and they even had a piece of open space specially designated for Tiantian to use as a small training ground.

At this time, Tiantian was holding a shuriken and aiming at the wooden target in front of him. He looked over immediately when he heard the sound.

"Huh? Xia Mu, you're here! And this is..."

"This is my friend and classmate Aburame Shino. Let's see how the new shuriken works."

Xia Mu saw Tiantian’s blushing face, and the more he looked at her, the cuter she seemed to him. He hadn’t noticed it before because he had no idea about it, but now he really couldn’t control his smile.

He also casually sent the owner away: "Thank you, uncle owner, you can go back to the store."

The shop owner glared at the guy fiercely. Seeing that his precious daughter ignored her father and her face was red, he felt heartbroken for a moment.

My own sweet daughter is already being cared about at such a young age!

This kid deserves to die!

Chapter 21 Chatting Everyday

After the shop owner left, Xia Mu walked up to Tenten and asked, "Have you tried the shuriken?"

Tiantian shook his head: "I just got it and was about to try it out when you came."

Xia Mu nodded and said to Shino, "Shino, try using your shadow clone."

Without saying a word, Shino raised his hand and a group of insects flew out, scaring Tiantian so much that he hid behind Xia Mu. However, he saw the swarm of insects quickly gathered into a human shape, and finally turned into the appearance of Shino.
