Naruto: Learn the Substitution Jutsu and use it to create Star Platinum?

"Hey, why are you staring at this pretty lady?"

Suddenly, the girl next to Asama Santayu pointed at Obito.

She waited for a long time, but after Uncle San Taifu finished speaking, the guy didn't respond and just stared blankly at the girl.

At first glance, he doesn’t look like a good person!

After hearing this, Lin looked around to make sure the cute girl was talking about her before turning around with a slightly flushed face.

"Hmm? Obito, what's wrong?"

"N-no...nothing, I'm just looking at the sea...hahahaha, looking at the sea."

Obito scratched his head, his face flushed, and looked up at the sky.

"But you were clearly looking at the sky."

"Ah...ah, I misspoke, I was looking at the sky, yes, I was looking at the sky."

"By the way, Uncle San Taifu, who is she? Is she your daughter?"

"No, I am not worthy of her. Let me introduce you all. This is Princess Kazeka Koyuki of our Snow Kingdom."

Asama Santayu first shook his head in fear, then spoke with pride.

"Princess?"

Obito exclaimed in surprise.

In his imagination, a princess should be a beautiful and youthful girl!

He's at least about the same age as Lin, right?

But the little girl in front of me looks to be no more than five or six years old.

"What? Don't I look like a princess?"

Feng Hua Xiaoxue wrinkled her nose, quite dissatisfied.

She had absolutely no liking for this presumptuous guy.

"Greetings, Princess. I am Uchiha Lin Yi, the captain of this escort team."

After all, they are the real big spenders, so they should be treated with the respect they deserve.

"Yes, Brother Lin Yi, how are you too?"

Feng Hua Xiaoxue glanced at Lin Yi's handsome face, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

"Mr. Asama was right, she really is the cutest princess in the world. Hello, Princess, my name is Nohara Rin."

Nohara Rin smiled gently, recalling how Fuuka Koyuki had just said she was a beautiful older sister.

"Sister Lin is also very cute, but you have to be careful of some ill-intentioned people."

"Hey! Who are you calling unkind?"

"cut."

The wind, flowers, and light snow turned their heads away.

"your Highness…"

Asama Santayu felt a little embarrassed, but she didn't dare to blame him, nor could she bear to. She could only give Obito an apologetic look.

"Kakashi Hatake will escort you until the mission is over."

Kakashi leaned against the railing and spoke softly.

Feng Hua Elementary School blinked and looked at Kakashi's white hair. Although the other party was wearing a mask, she felt that Kakashi was much more reliable than that reckless guy.

"Okay, then I'll leave it to Kakashi-nii."

Kakashi is such a show-off!

Obito, standing nearby, seemed a little annoyed.

But they quickly found a railing.

He leaned back, lowered his head slightly, and spoke in a calm voice, mimicking Kakashi.

"Ahem, my name is Uchiha Obito. I'll be in charge of your safety from now on."

"Oh."

The smile on Feng Hua Xiaoxue's face vanished instantly.

Obito waited for a long time, but unlike Kakashi, he didn't receive a sweet "Thank you, Obito-nii-san."

After a while.

"Obito."

"Ok?"

Lin suppressed a laugh.

"Don't stand there, it's almost lunchtime."

"...I was just enjoying the sea breeze."

That wretched brat.

In the large living room in the middle of the ship.

"Mr. Asama, were you the only one accompanying the princess before?"

"Well, apart from a few guards, I was indeed the only one responsible for taking care of the princess."

Asama Santayu paused for a moment, but responded immediately.

"Eh? So young and you're the only one taking care of her, Uncle Santai? And you're not even in our own country."

Obito shoveled a couple of bites of food into his mouth and asked curiously.

"Ah, the Land of Snow is covered in snow all year round, which sounds very romantic, but actually... compared to your Land of Fire, it's like comparing heaven and earth."

Asama Santayu shook his head with a wry smile.

"Lord Daimyo also hopes that the princess can see more of spring."

Chapter 129: The Kingdom of Ice and Snow

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Obito, who had previously refused to go back to the deck, had also grown tired of the endless sea.

Just like the previous trip to Loulan.

Deserts, oceans... these landscapes are absolutely magnificent at first glance, but staying there for too long becomes uncomfortable.

Conversely, it is precisely because they are unsuitable for habitation that they are so magnificent.

"Is that an iceberg?"

Although Nohara Rin wasn't as enthusiastic as she had been at the beginning, occasionally picking up her camera to take pictures, she hadn't reached Obito's level yet.

"Yes."

Kakashi glanced over and saw a shimmering expanse in the distance, reflecting the sunlight.

Even around the ship, sparse ice floes began to appear.

"An iceberg?! Where is it? Where is it?"

Upon hearing this, Obito, who was lying on the boat, immediately sprang into action and began looking around.

He now finds the task extremely boring.

The princess is a little kid.

There was no danger, no villains, only salted fish that I was about to throw up from and the sea breeze.

"It's already past, it was blocked by the ship's hull, but there might be more later."

Lin covered her mouth and smiled.

As the temperature dropped, the three little ones put on an extra jacket.

"Ah, when we arrive in the Land of Snow, this will be a common sight. It should already be snowing heavily in the Land of Snow by now."

Asama Santayu, dressed in a cotton-padded coat, said casually.

"Huh? It's only early autumn, and it's already snowing?"

Obito was somewhat surprised.

The temperature in Konoha at this time of year is just enough to wear an extra jacket, but sometimes it can suddenly turn as hot as summer.

As for snow, we'll only see that during the Lunar New Year.

"Yes, otherwise why would it be called the Land of Snow?"

Asama Santayu's words carried both pride and helplessness.

"That snow country is so beautiful."

Lin had some expectations.

Asama Santayu shook his head with a wry smile.

In his view, a country like the Land of Fire, with its distinct four seasons and vibrant life, is truly beautiful.

It's a pity I didn't travel to the Land of Fire sooner.

"By the way, esteemed ninjas, this is a specialty of our Land of Snow, isn't it? There's not much food left on the ship, so I didn't really want to show it off."

Asama Santau took a plate from one of the guards behind him.

The three little ones huddled together.

It consists of several cylindrical objects.

"Sausage?"

Nohara Rin spoke with some uncertainty.

She was a commoner ninja, so she had seen this kind of down-to-earth food before, but it wasn't as appealing as the food that Asama Santayu had prepared.
