Chapter 237: Exceeding
Chapter 237: Exceeding
But today is a special day off, so I made an appointment with Ino to go out together.
Why are you with Ino?
It was because Asuma only brought Shikamaru and Choji with him on this emergency mission. Of course, the main reason was that Ino caught a cold...
In the absence of a sparring partner, Ino's family asked Ino to help run errands.
Ino held the bouquet and complained as she walked, "That's enough. Don't you think this is infuriating?"
Sakura comforted Ino beside her and began to complain, "Don't be angry, don't be angry, I have been practicing all the time recently, I am really exhausted..."
"Sakura!" After hearing someone calling her name, Sakura turned around out of habit.
Ino turned around and looked at Naruto who appeared behind her, "Huh? It's you, the idler."
Naruto was very unconvinced, looking at the bouquet in Ino's hand, "What did you say? You're talking about me! You look like you're running errands for the store, right? Where are Shikamaru and Choji?"
Ino gets angry when she mentions this, "I'm on a mission with Asuma-sensei. I want to go on a mission too..."
Sakura did explain, "It's because Ino has a cold, and the rest of the team is out on an emergency mission."
At this point, Ino wasn't really angry, she just felt it was very untimely. "Damn it! I was holding my breath to recover quickly, my enthusiasm was wasted!"
Naruto was very good at giving suggestions, "Wouldn't it be better to use this enthusiasm for training?"
Ino tilted her head and said helplessly, "Too naive! If I don't have a sparring partner, my family will find all kinds of reasons to get me to come to the store to help!"
Naruto pretended to be an adult, "It seems that your family has seen through you. You will be lazy when there is no one to practice with you!"
Sakura also spoke up rarely, "Naruto, please don't say such harsh words, okay?"
Ino agreed, "That's right, I will practice well on my own too!"
But Sakura watched Shino coming towards them, and when she walked behind Naruto, she suddenly said, "Naruto."
This scared Naruto, "Shino! Are you trying to scare me to death?"
Shino's eyes were still shining, "Uzumaki Naruto, Yamanaka Ino, the Hokage-sama summons you."
Ino was very surprised, "And me?"
Shino put his hands in his pockets and said, "By the way, I have also received an order to ask you two to go with me."
Naruto looked at Shino and then Ino in confusion, "Ino, me and Shino?"
Sakura took the bouquet from Ino's hand and said, "Okay, go ahead. Let me help you with this errand task~"
Ino nodded gratefully, "I'll treat you to dinner when I come back!"
Sakura watched as several people hurried to the Hokage's office, and chose to deliver the bouquets of flowers on hand to others first.
However, recently everyone has been doing missions in teams of three, which makes it a little awkward for Naruto and I because Sasuke is missing and we can't do missions as a team. We can only participate in missions with people from other teams.
Of course, it is not ruled out that one is strong enough to complete the mission alone, but usually only the Jonin can carry out the mission alone. After all, carrying out the mission alone requires great strength and the ability to adapt to changing circumstances.
However, this situation will not happen to me for the time being. I walked to the familiar training ground and started today's practice.
After all, you also need to help with some simple D-level tasks in the village, such as clearing swamps, repairing bridges, subduing crazy wild boars, etc.
However, these simple tasks can always train some special skills, which means making your basics more practical.
For example, the task of dealing with the swamp is more about experiencing the absorption and control of chakra under different textures. After all, different landforms require the release of different amounts of chakra. Sakura quickly picked up the garbage in the swamp with a bamboo basket on her back, but there was mostly domestic garbage on the swamp, and no one knew who could throw these garbage into the swamp...
The task of repairing a bridge is just to check whether there are any hidden dangers on the bridge. However, in this case, you can analyze the composition and age of the bridge, which can exercise your observation and practical skills... ...
As for subduing the crazy wild boar, as long as you find the acupuncture points and the strength of the needle, you can quickly solve the problem. It can be regarded as applying the knowledge in textbooks to actual combat... ...
After completing these tasks, it is natural to hand in the task book to Lady Tsunade. When Sakura arrived at the Hokage's office and saw several piles of materials on Lady Tsunade's desk, she knew what her next task was.
"Ah, it's Sakura. Have you completed all the missions?" Tsunade was looking at the pile of bills that were sent to her because of her inauguration as Hokage and was worried about the unpayable debts and Naruto's quarrels.
"Yes, Lady Tsunade." Sakura nodded and handed over the task book in her hand.
Tsunade flipped through it for a few seconds and nodded with satisfaction, "Very good, when I'm done with my work, I'll start teaching you the techniques of using supernatural powers..."
Then he heard Naruto's shouting from downstairs, "Hey! Granny Tsunade! Since you won't give me the mission! Then let me go find Sasuke! Granny Tsunade!"
It seems that those Chunins downstairs really can't stop Naruto, but this is also normal. For tasks with low difficulty, there will be a temporary window period after completing them for a while, and those tasks with higher difficulty are based on teams, so naturally it is not their turn.
Tsunade looked at Naruto outside the window, then looked at Sakura, then smiled and said, "Well, Sakura, you can practice with Naruto, so that Naruto won't come to disturb my work all the time."
Sakura could only agree. After all, there was no need for her help right now. Most of the ninjas who were on missions had not returned, so she was not needed for medical purposes for the time being. However, following Naruto... should be a rare opportunity for training.
When Naruto saw that Sakura was also alone, he felt much more balanced. "Sakura, you can only practice alone too! Suddenly I miss the lecherous immortal so much. Without him, practicing alone is really boring..."
"Naruto, that's Lord Jiraiya, one of the Three Ninjas. You can't call him that." Sakura thought it was right. After all, if Lord Jiraiya was there, the missions they would be involved in would have to be at least B-level, and they would definitely not be able to stay in Konoha so safely.
