I, who just wanted to be lazy, was forced to become the Hokage.

Chapter 401 The thriving little leeks!

Is this really a win-win situation?

For a moment, Yakushi Nonou was captivated by Nara Ranke's sunny, cheerful, and adorable smile.

By the time she realized what was happening, the two had already left the Namaka River and returned to Kikyo Castle.

Yakushi Nonou stood dazedly at the entrance of Kikyo Orphanage, holding a seemingly ordinary [Wood Release Chakra Creation Method] in her hand, when a thought suddenly flashed through her mind.

I don't think I'll be dragged to an empty area to do construction work after this, right?

"Nonou-nee-nee".

Nara Rinka put her arm around Yakushi Nonou's slender shoulder and whispered in the ear of her delicate ear.

"Would you like me to learn Wood Release with you?"

"No, that's not necessary!"

Yakushi Nonou's earlobes immediately turned bright red. She shuddered and escaped from Nara Ranka's clutches.

She had finally managed to get out of bed, and she didn't want to be put back down so soon!

"Today I'll just read a book and take care of the kids by myself. Lan Gui, if you have anything else to do, feel free to go ahead and do it!"

Seeing this, Nara Rinka nodded with great regret.

As close friends, he and Yakushi Nonou knew each other inside and out.

To be honest, he did have some inspiration regarding Wood Release and wanted to communicate with Yakushi Nonou.

For example, why must the wood created by the Wood Release be a hard stick, and not a soft vine?

Unfortunately, Yakushi Nonou didn't give Nara Rinka this chance.

Let's talk about it another day!

Nara Rinka nodded to Yakushi Nonou, whispered a few words of advice, and then left from the entrance of Kikyo Orphanage.

As Yakushi Nonou watched Nara Rinka's departing figure, she turned around and saw a group of little heads crowding at the edge of the gate of Kikyo Orphanage, their bright, dark eyes staring at her.

The one at the very bottom of all the heads is Chino.

"Mommy! Hug me! Hehe!"

Chino called out to people cheerfully as she swayed towards Yakushi Nonou.

Ninjas are naturally precocious.

As the last surviving member of the Blood Pond clan, Chino inherited the physical traits of a ninja: precocious, agile, and clever.

Pharmacist Nono immediately saw that Chino was pretending to be naive, but what could she say when she was already lacking confidence?

She bent down, hugged Chino in her arms, and shooed away the other children who had gathered around.

In no time at all.

Only Yakushi Nono and Chino remained at the gate, along with a cool white-haired guy wearing sunglasses.

"Dean."

The pharmacist adjusted his sunglasses and said in a serious tone.

"I have already learned the technique of 'extracting small ailments' that you taught me before."

"If you're nearsighted, don't wear sunglasses all the time, pocket."

Yakushi Nonou put one arm around Chino and used the other hand to lightly tap Yakushi Kabuto's head a few times with a scroll of the Wood Release Chakra Creation Technique.

"Don't always try to fool me with that excuse of 'closing your eyes to train your perception.'"

"I know you cherish the glasses that Lan Gui gave you, but you should still wear prescription glasses for everyday life."

Nara was preoccupied with trivial matters and rarely paid attention to Yakushi Kabuto's situation.

In addition, Kabuto Yakushi is still just a child of a few years old, far from being "usable".

Therefore, Nara Rinkei has no idea what Yakushi Kabuto's current skill level is.

But Yakushi Nonou cannot ignore this child prodigy who has grown up right under her nose.

Since Nara Rinkei taught Yakushi Kabuto the [Immortal Clan Guiding Technique] and the [Immortal Clan Breathing Method].

Kabuto then devoted himself to training these two pseudo-immortal body techniques with unique effects.

It's unclear whether it's because Kabuto Yakushi's talent is too exceptional, or because he has an exceptionally high affinity with Sage Mode.

Even now, Kabuto's sensory abilities are not much weaker than those of Nono Yakushi, an elite Jonin.

For Yakushi Kabuto, perceiving the surrounding natural environment with his eyes closed is also a piece of cake.

The pharmacist pursed his lips and slowly took off his sunglasses.

He always wanted to grow up as quickly as possible so that he could help Yakushi Nonou and Nara Rinkei.

Unfortunately, both Yakushi Nonou and Nara Rankei always treated him like a child.

I'm so angry.

Seeing Kabuto's childlike appearance, Nono couldn't help but smile.

"Kabuto, come with me. Since even B-rank ninjutsu is no challenge for you, it's time to teach you an A-rank medical ninjutsu. Do you want to learn a healing type or a self-defense type?"

"How did Brother Lan Gui learn it back then?"

"Lan Gui didn't learn medical ninjutsu from me, hmph..."

"I see, Dean. I want to learn healing ninjutsu."

"Then I'll teach you the [Palm Cultivation Technique]!"

……

Nara Rinka had no idea that Yakushi Nonou not only skipped his lessons, but also found a student to teach her.

After leaving Kikyo Orphanage, he used the Flying Thunder God Mark to travel directly to the underground research institute.

No matter how many times I say it, the Flying Thunder God Technique: Shadow Blade is truly a world-class ninjutsu for traveling!

Over here at the underground research institute.

Sweating profusely, Yekura was undergoing her daily hellish training. Her once round and full pear-shaped figure had begun to transform into an S-shape, and her shrewd and capable demeanor was gradually returning to this elite Jonin of Sunagakure.

Nara Rinka quietly observed Yokura's training for a while, then suddenly spoke up.

"Yakura, Rasa has become the Fourth Kazekage."

Ye Cang, whose breathing had been steady and regular, suddenly became somewhat disordered after hearing these words.

boom!

Yecang put down the exercise equipment in his hand and wiped the sweat from his forehead with a clean white towel.

"so what?"

"Rasa was able to become the Kazekage because he is currently the strongest in Sunagakure."

Nara Rinka sized up Yekura's figure and sensed the intensity of the chakra emanating from her body.

"Although I am not quite clear on how the Magnet Release bloodline limit of Sunagakure works, the manifestations of Magnet Release by the different Kazekage are not entirely the same."

"However, I have a fairly good understanding of [Burning Escape] and [Swift Escape]."

"Besides getting back in shape, have you been reading lately?"

"I'm not talking about your personal collection, well, your books, but the scrolls containing the techniques for the [Swift Release Chakra Creation Method]."

Ever since Nara Rinkei found a copy of "Icha Icha Paradise," the latest edition published by Shueido, in the study here.

He knew that Yekura was no longer the Yekura he knew.

No wonder this guy learned so many new positions...

Should we inform this loyal fan in advance that "Intimate Paradise" will have several sequels in the future, such as "Intimate Violence," "Intimate Tactics," and even a film or television adaptation?

Yoko pretended not to hear Nara Rinka's teasing remarks.

Reading is just a personal hobby.

Compared to Nara Ranka's hobby of reading newspapers, it's far less civilized and shows less manners.

Pooh!Scumbag!

"If you mean [Swift Escape]."

Yekura clasped her hands together, silently forming a hand seal, and then looked at Nara Rangsuke with a provocative expression.

"Want to try out the power of my [Swift Escape]?"

Wow, you're pretty brave!

Nara Rinka raised an eyebrow and waved the [Death Mask] in his hand.

"I'm going downstairs to deliver something, and then I'll take you out for some fun."

"If your performance in the following moments meets my expectations, I can tell you some more good news."
