The Uzumaki Quarter was unremarkable, the only thing that distinguished it from the rest was their trademark on the walls and on the gates. I didn't really want to communicate with someone, but I need to take a walk around the village. Which is exactly what I did. Of course, I had to tell the captain about it first.
Since we arrived at lunchtime and did not stop to eat, I was, as expected, very hungry. Walking the streets in the hope of finding something to eat, I did not notice how I came to some kind of dumplings, from where it smelled delicious.
Going inside, I saw an ordinary eatery here there were several tables with chairs, half of which were also occupied by several doors that were not clear where they led except for one, because as you could understand once it is located next to the window from the kitchen, I think everyone understands exactly where it leads, also there were all sorts of decorations in the form of paintings, flowers in pots and Chinese lanterns and whatnot.
Having passed to a free table, I sat down and began to choose food from the menu, or just from the list.
- What will you order?
Asked a sweet girl of about ten with plump cheeks, big blue eyes and black hair with two ponytails on the sides.
- And what would you advise me, dear lady?
- Mi .. mi .. cute lady ??
Aren't you ashamed of Ichiro? Confused the little cutie.
- Heh, sorry, so what would you order yourself?
Having regained consciousness, the girl began to list a large number of dumplings with different fillings.
- Okay, let's do it all one by one.
- I'm on my way!
By the time she brought my order, twenty minutes had passed, and all the tables were already occupied.
- Here, please.
- Thank
I would like to start eating when I noticed that the girl looks at me with an embarrassed look, apparently she wants something.
- Do you want it too?
Handing her a dumpling on sticks, I asked.
- N-no .... I just need to do the assignment that I received at the academy, and my mother cleans up at home and I ... I have nowhere to do it so .. can I sit here?
- Why me?
- I just ... I ... sorry to bother you.
Ahh, it is clear, here I am a fool, who will a little girl choose between not shaved workers, harsh shinobi with scars and a guy of fourteen.
- Wait, I didn't say no.
- Oh yes? Thank!
- If you are going to sit with me, then let's introduce ourselves? My name is Ichiro.
"Ayako, I'm ten.
So she did her homework while I ate my dumplings, which were about twenty.
After a while she asked.
"Are you shinobi?
Well, yes, I don't have a vest, and you can only understand by the protector on my leg, which she apparently noticed.
- Yes, and you want to become one too?
- Of course, I want to become very strong in order to earn a lot and heal my sister.
And immediately the cheerful mood was replaced by a sad one.
- What about your sister?
- She ... she cannot walk due to the fact that in childhood, when she was little, she fell off a cliff ...
Already with wet eyes she spoke
- Hey, well, don't cry, you are the future kunoichi and they must be strong.
- * Sob * ... yeah .. I'll be strong.
- Let me help you with your assignment.
- True ?
- Well, yes, it's true I did not study at the academy, but I know something.
So for several hours I helped her to cope with the task and did not learn much myself.
"Um ... Ayako, can I see your sister?"
- AND? But why?
- I'm just not sure, but I think I can help.
- True?!
- Well, it's not accurate, but ..
- Then let's go quickly, Ichiro-san
Having passed through the very doors that, as it turned out, lead through the corridors to their house, passing to the second floor, we stopped at the door.
"May I come in, Miyuki?"
- Aya, come in.
Going into the room, I noticed a girl who was lying on the bed covered with a blanket and the first thing I saw her green eyes, then her skin was pale as if she hadn't been outside for years, her figure was also beautiful like her breasts (how could I not have noticed her if they are probably the third size) and her dark hair with a purple tint.
Noticing that I study her body, she blushed and looked away, canceling her gaze.
- Um, Aya and who is it?
"This is Ichiro-san, he is a shinobi and can help you.
- AND? Silly little one, we went to so many doctors and they said that at least Irienin A rank can help me, and his help is expensive.
Yes, there is another difference from the anime here, the treatment is paid, but only for peaceful people, for shinobi it is free.
- But ... but ... because
- Ayako, thanks, it's not all that easy ...
- Please excuse her, she is still small and does not fully understand everything.
"No, it's okay, but I really can only help if you allow me to examine you.
- What?
- You see, sister, I told you so.
* * * * *
With embarrassment, she nevertheless agreed to conduct an examination, of course, I carried it through the clothes and sometimes by touch, missing delicate places. It is clear that it was a fracture of the spine, and apparently when it was restored, the nerve and chakrochannels next to it were touched. Mdaaaa they are really difficult to restore, especially after a long time.
You can use Tsunade's seal that repairs all damage but I haven't studied it yet, so I'll use the method I read from the library. It can only be used by the Uzumaki.
- I understood what happened and I think I can help.
- You're not lying?
- No, but to help, you have to bare your back and arms.
- But ... but
- Sister do as he says.
- Ho ... good
Well, she undressed while I turned away and lay on my stomach on the bed, and began to conduct a healing rite or a combination of seals.
To create seals, fresh Uzumaki blood is required as a conductor (after all, everyone has it to a different degree, but has healing properties), I cut my palm, I began to outline the seals from the hands to the problematic place where the chakra will concentrate, which over time will heal it. It's a pity this method takes at least a month, but it depends on the wound.
When I finished Miyuki was already asleep, because it requires a lot of energy from both the patient and the person who is conducting him. I began to leave and Ayako began to see me off.
- Um, will your sister go?
- Well, now not, but somewhere in two or three months it depends on her body should.
- Thank you * Sob * thank you very much Ichiro-san.
- Yeah, okay, I have to go, goodbye.
When I was about to leave at the exit she asked.
- Will you still come back to us?
- Maybe yes, but who knows what might happen. Anyway, remember to become strong to protect yourself and your family.
- Uh-huh.
Continuing to walk around the city, nothing more interesting happened. So I headed back to the block.
When I arrived, I saw that everyone had already gathered (and this is about one and a half hundred shinobi.) Which means we will perform tomorrow morning. Damn, what about my conversation with Jiraiya, and the techniques I wanted to learn the call, the needle hairs and in the end the hermit mode, nooo nuu why !!!!.
* * * * *
In the morning we set off back, but this time at an accelerated pace and straight ahead and not along winding roads, and three days later we were at the port where we left half of the arrivals from Konoha, and I took my student and went to the island.
When I returned home, the first thing I had to do was go to the head of the village. Mitsuo entered first, followed by me.
Knock-Knock
- Ichiro come in.
- Chapter ....
- You don't have to start the report, the captain has already done it.
- I see, am I free now?
- You showed yourself well on the mission, so here are the payments for the A rank mission for escort and A rank from Konoha for the destruction of the enemy.
- Thank you, will I go then?
-Yes free, but I hope that you will become even stronger because you know about the situation in the world.
- I understood.
* * * * *
Then, for a month, I carried out missions in the city and also trained, and sent Torah to the academy, the head, by the way, was not against it and said that if I was responsible for him, then everything is in order.
I told Toor that when he graduated from the academy, I myself would start teaching him.
I trained mainly the body and ninjutsu, I also tried to strengthen my lightning and I succeeded, and now when I create with the help of its concentrated chakra, it acquires a red color, but its consumption is large, but for me this is not a problem. Although if I use the acceleration for half an hour, then the chidori and the dragon will run out of me, but after this combination I still have to survive, because with the red lightning all their characteristics increase by about forty percent.
As for the situation in the world, the war has already begun, not officially, of course, but still. Everyone is trying to strengthen borders, provoke someone into open confrontation. Shorter than the trigger finger.
And yesterday I was informed that I, together with our shinobi, were going to the Land of the Bear there, according to the head, Kiri are building an outpost and preparing to capture it, since the number of shinobi in their village is extremely small, and also given the fact that we have an agreement on protection and plus if they lose then they can hit us from behind, then we must help them.
Preparing for the shipment, I thought how could I use the sharingan unnoticed, because I can't raise the dust every time. Several ideas came to mind at once, the first and simple is a blindfold, but there will be too many questions, the second is the Mist Concealment Technique, it's already easier here, but as luck would have it, I have no talent for the element of water, but this is not a problem because if I get the third tomoe, then I can copy it, but this will be easier, because there should be a lot of opponents with such a technique.
We set off in the amount of one hundred shinobi of different directions (who did not understand this type of medic, sensor, etc.) on ships. And upon arrival, we will have to build our fortifications ten kilometers from the enemy. Fortunately, this does not threaten me, since here we need land equipment, which I do not have.
* * * * *
Hmm, we've been here for a week and nothing serious has happened, only patrols and then I did not participate in them. Well, they erected a fortification which we jokingly nicknamed "The Fortress". It stood where the forests of the Bear end and the plain begins, and behind it is the coast on which the enemy's camp is located. The terrain as well as a properly designed camp allows us to focus on two directions in front and on the right, while on the left there is a cliff along which we cannot climb but behind the allies.
* * * * *
I was sitting in the barracks and playing with red lightning on my fingers, training and entertainment in one, and I like this element ...
- We are under attack !!
There was a cry and others followed, but there were explosions.
- Everyone quickly move to the walls.
My new captain ran into the room and gave the order and dumped, but we quickly got dressed and ran out into the street.
- Puss * c
There is no other way to say that it was a full-scale offensive.
Since our "Fortress" was on a hill, it was possible to see the battlefield.
Enemy shinobi, with the help of the elements of the earth, created a moat to which the rest would be pulled up and watered us with a hail of techniques, while we, in turn, responded to them in the same way. There were those who managed to come up and engage in close combat, but they were few of them and we extinguished them with a crowd.
- Now the war has definitely begun.
I said and went into battle.
