Hanyu's experiment in training summoning beasts has been completed so far...or rather, it has been terminated.
He had made the attempt out of interest, and now that his attempt had yielded minimal returns, there was no reason to continue.
Hanyu doesn't have that much time to spend on raising a cat. Now he doesn't really care about the cat. The black cat is completely free-range, and it's the kind of free-range pet.
So, since it likes to develop, then let it develop. After all, if it develops successfully it will be a surprise, and if it fails it will not be disappointing.
Two days later, Hanyu heard that the Konoha hospital had treated Hatake Sakumo's injuries and the injured was basically fine, so both as a leader and as a friend, Hanyu went to visit Hatake.
But when Hanyu arrived at the hospital, he realized that his behavior might be a bit unnecessary...
Previously, Hanyu and others brought back a girl from Daimyo Castle. Later, the child was raised in the Hatake family. Now, she is taking care of the injured Sakumo.
After that action, Hanyu no longer cared about the girl, so this was the first time he had seen her in several years.
Hanyu observed her carefully. How should I put it? This child looked more and more like her sister. Her appearance reminded Hanyu of the maid who passed on important information to him when he first went to Daimyo Castle with Jiraiya and the other two on the tower.
Unfortunately, no matter how similar they look, the maid is no longer here, and the only one here is her sister.
Hanyu shook his head and quickly got rid of this memory. This is what happens when people get older. They are prone to getting lost in their own memories.
My sister's name is Totsuki Nono, right?
"Hanyu-sama."
What Hanyu didn't expect was that the other party actually knew him.
Nono performed the ceremony in a very polite manner. She first arranged the various cut and arranged fruits on the plate, and then made a cup of hot tea for Hanyu with an action that was impeccable and very ritualistic. Then, she seemed to know that Hanyu had something to discuss with Sakumo, so she took the initiative to leave the ward.
All her movements were neither hurried nor slow, but in fact they were completed very quickly. As soon as Hanyu walked to Hatake's bedside and sat down, she had already retreated to the door of the ward.
Hanyu looked at the other person's leaving figure, and then his expression became thoughtful.
"Hanyu, is there something wrong with Nono?"
Seeing that Hanyu was staring at the door, Sakumo couldn't help but ask.
Is this an illusion? Why does it feel like there's a hint of nervousness in this person's voice?
"Nothing, I just feel like time has passed very quickly. This girl... looks a lot like her sister."
Hanyu naturally noticed some of Sakumo's emotions, and then found it a little funny...but he didn't expect that such a person was also a loli control, and what Hanyu hated most in his two lives was loli control.
In fact, except for people like Hanyu who are free from vulgarity, every serious person is a hypocrite, and every man is Jiraiya when his true nature is revealed.
"Really? I don't seem to have that feeling." said Sakumo.
His eyes were clear and he spoke the truth.
This is where people differ from each other. Hanyu's entire impression of Totsuki Nono actually comes from that maid, so he often thinks and looks at problems from the maid's perspective.
But this was not the case for Sakumo. He had never seen a maid, so how could he connect Totsuki with her sister and see the impression of the maid in Nono?
Hanyu smiled and didn't dwell on such questions.
"But your family tradition is quite traditional, as can be seen from Nono's clothes. Before, I thought she would..."
Maid outfit, black and white stockings, Gothic loli, nude apron... Well, seeing that Hatake is pale and weak now, Hanyu decided not to tell her those exciting stories.
"How is your injury?"
"It's no problem. I will recover after resting for a while. Because the medical ninjas are willing to work hard, the internal and external injuries on my body will recover quickly. In addition to the detoxification process, I will probably need to be hospitalized for about two weeks."
Hanyu thought to himself, do you understand why the medical ninjas are willing to put in the effort? Isn't it just because of me?
Doesn't the use of medical ninjutsu require the consumption of a large amount of medical chakra? Medical ninjas are so dedicated, can ordinary ninjas have such treatment?
That's true, there must be a reason why Hatake got the best treatment, but it's a bit shameless for Hanyu to take the credit for himself... What does it have to do with his face? In the final analysis, it's all about Tsunade's face.
Hanyu doesn't consider himself an outsider.
"That's good."
"When did you become so caring about others?"
Although Sakumo's face was a little pale, he was still quite energetic when he spoke, and his spirit was generally very good, so there was indeed no major problem with his body - well, since they had a world of their own, of course he was in good spirits.
"I have always cared about people. Whether as a leader or as a friend, I am the kind of person who is particularly considerate of others."
At this time, Hanyu even wanted to write a short essay:
"Single Theory"
You treat me as a buddy and I treat you as my son. We each have our own opinions and there is no conflict. That is why I care about you and love you like an old father.
I just don't know if Sakumo felt the fatherly emotion from Hanyu.
"If that's the case, you will indeed be able to recover quickly, but... this year's final Jonin exam seems to be held in a week. Don't you want to take the exam? It may be too late in time."
Then, Hanyu suddenly remembered something else.
Sakumo: "..."
Apparently, during the time of his injury, some other matter had occupied his mind, and he had forgotten all about it.
"If I take the time to recover , I think I can be discharged early and just in time for the exam." So he immediately took remedial measures.
"…"
Now it was Hanyu's turn to be speechless. He thought to himself, did this kid just lie to me? In fact, he could recover in a week? Did he extend the time just to stay in the hospital for another week? And then enjoy the treatment of being taken care of?
Isn't this just absenteeism? I never thought that a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes would be so blatantly absent from work... Sakumo, you've narrowed your path.
Hanyu glanced at the man, and his kind father immediately turned into a strict father, "Really? That's good, you can just lead three ninjas from the Shadow Stream to form a team, and then go to take the exam together.
Pay attention, the next step is the key point, you have to operate it...
It's like this, your ability is trustworthy, so you can definitely ensure that your teammates can pass the test, and then you have to act more realistically, and then be eliminated, leaving everyone with the impression that you sacrificed yourself for your teammates. "
"Eliminated?"
It is obvious that Sakumo doesn't understand what Hanyu is trying to do. There is no contradiction between ensuring that teammates pass and one's own passing, so why should he be eliminated?
"Yes, you can guarantee that the Shadow Ninja who takes the exam this year can become a Jonin, but what about the next time, and the next time, won't it all depend on you?
So you have to stay at the Chunin level, take the exam every year , and run every year. In this way, even if the Shadow ninjas are all disabled, our organization will be composed of Jonins in more than ten years. Then what? Then you can graduate from Chunin.
Sacrifice yourself for the happiness of our family. How about that? Don't you have this spirit of putting the greater good before the lesser self?"
Sakumo gasped and almost cried out of fright.
He was wrong, really wrong. He would never dare to be lazy next time. He swore that if he was lazy again...well, if he had a son in the future, he would curse that little bastard to be alone for the rest of his life.
