Pokémon Ninja Scrolls of the Mizukage

Chapter 154: Good Neighbors of the Common People in the Hidden Mist Village

"Brother Ju, why are you being bothered again?"

The fruit shop owner rubbed his hands embarrassedly, watching the ninja Jianchuan Tachibana busying around repairing the roof of his shop.

"Hey, Uncle Sakata, what are you talking about? I often step on this place when I go out on missions. It's only right that I fix it."

Boss Sakata was filled with emotion for a moment.

His fruit shop is located in a location with a lot of traffic on the entire commercial street, and business is very good.

However, as it is an important traffic route, it is inevitable that these high-flying ninja masters will pass by the roof.

Some ninjas are in a hurry and are in a hurry, so they don't even bother with such trivial matters as damaging the roof.

Even though he was once injured by tiles falling from the roof, no one came to give him compensation or anything.

As an ordinary civilian, he didn't dare to complain to the ninja masters, so in the end he could only blame himself for his bad luck.

However, I didn't expect that this young ninja named Jianchuan Tachibana was so enthusiastic. He helped me several times even though he had not received any mission.

A while ago, he helped me run errands and deliver fruits, and now he is helping me repair the roof.

And I heard that many shops and residents around here have been helped by him.

"What a nice guy!"

"Are you tired, brother Orange? Come eat some fruit and take a break?"

"No need, Uncle Sakata, I have something else to do later so I'll leave first. I'll get the rest for you another day."

After saying this, Jianchuan Ju had no intention of staying. He leaped forward and disappeared without looking back.

Only Mr. Sakata was left, holding the freshly washed fruit in his hand, staring in a daze at the half-repaired roof.

"Brother Orange is a nice guy, but why do you always do half the work?"

The proprietress of the fresh food store, who had been watching the fun nearby, came over with a smile, patted Mr. Sakata on the shoulder and said.

"Haha, come on, stop daydreaming, you can do the rest by yourself. You closed the store and were in the hospital for so long, so you didn't have much contact with Brother Orange."

"Last time, Brother Orange helped me move ten boxes of sea fish, and said he would come to help with the rest next time. But he didn't come for four or five days. Luckily, I didn't keep waiting for him."

"Hahaha, that's right. Last time Brother Ju helped me deliver a package, he delivered five out of seven and then disappeared."

"I'm lucky. Before, Tachibana came to help Meiko sew dolls. After he had sewn four dolls, he kept asking if there were any remaining materials and insisted on sewing another one for her."

Several bosses on the commercial street came over with a smile to share their experiences of being helped by Jianchuan Ju.

However, even some people who were caused trouble by Jianchuan Ju were not angry.

You have to know that D-level missions are rare in the Hidden Mist Village, not just because the ninjas in the village don't like to take such low-level missions.

Also, because of the overall atmosphere, these civilians are reluctant to entrust such small tasks to the ninja masters.

So it is rare to find such a kind-hearted and humble ninja in such a big environment like Kirigakure.

These civilians who were helped were so happy that they had no time to complain about such a small matter.

Instead, I had a feeling that 'since everyone is praising our child, I have no choice but to point out some of his shortcomings to be polite.'

"By the way, where is Orange's little frog?"

"It seems to be undergoing special training. When Brother Orange was helping me pack up dried fish a few days ago, he even said he would buy some back to reward it."

"Then I guess it's the same today. After all, Brother Tachibana is already a Chunin. Isn't that right? You're charging money for a few small fish?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? How much is a little dried fish?"

"So you take the money if it's too much, right?" "Are you looking for trouble, old man?"

Seeing that two old men, who were over a hundred years old in total, were about to start a fight, the others hurriedly tried to pull one of them apart or to try to stop the fight.

Suddenly, this small commercial street became more lively.

As for the other side, our 'good neighbor of the common people of the Hidden Mist Village' didn't know at this moment whether these uncles and aunts would still quarrel over his affairs after he left.

But even if he knew, Jianchuan Ju didn't have time to care about these things.

The main reason is that he has been very busy recently.

Perhaps it was because Jianchuan Ju had always performed well in the previous series of missions, or perhaps he simply felt that Jianchuan Ju's loyalty to the Hidden Mist Village was obvious to all?

In short, even though the Six-Tails Jinchuriki had just been attacked not long ago, Jianchuan Tachibana was asked to continue accompanying Fuku to provide ninja training to Yugao.

And because he has a clearer understanding of Jianchuan Ju's strength, what he needs to do now is not just to be responsible for medical care.

Most of the time he was like an assistant teacher, assisting Fuku in teaching the Jinchūriki.

I am a little tired, but the little brat Yugao looks cute calling me "Brother Lu" all the time.

Jianchuan Ju had no choice but to agree reluctantly.

However, the two previous times of being chased like a dog still deeply stimulated Jianchuan Ju.

Although the enemies these two times were the future Fourth Raikage and the future Fourth Hokage, the fact that he could survive in their hands was enough to prove Jianchuan Tachibana's strength.

But for Jianchuan Ju, a time traveler with cheats, it still feels a bit shameful.

In addition, recently infected by Lan Zai's hard work in daily training, Jianchuan Ju also began to continuously increase his own training and entered a crazy training mode.

Of course, as a cheater, Jianchuan Ju is clear about what his most important thing is.

Not only is his basic attributes being improved through daily hard training.

Jianchuan Ju never missed his daily 'daily tasks'.

Occasionally, he would use his official identity to take on some simple ninja missions with Mei Terumi and the others.

However, as a working Anbu he needs to be on call at all times, so he cannot participate in missions that require leaving the village or are too troublesome.

This also results in the number of gold coins obtained through village tasks always being less than ideal.

As for today's Jianchuan oranges.

In the morning, I went to the training ground with Lan Zai and practiced hard for the whole morning.

I ran around again at noon and completed all my four 'daily tasks' for the day.

Now in the afternoon, I have to rush to the 'suburban villa' to assist Fu in training Yugao.

"Brother Lu, are you here to train with me again?"

As soon as I entered the yard, I heard Yu Gao's somewhat obedient voice.

This house on the edge of the village is almost as big as a castle. Naturally, it is the new residence arranged for Yugao by the village leaders after the last attack.

And perhaps out of caution, there are many more Anbu troops stationed here, either openly or secretly than before.

However, Jianchuan Ju himself had no bad intentions and didn't care about it.

"Xiao Yugao, how are you doing with the moves I taught you before?"

"Hey, Brother Lu, look~"
