Konoha: The seal art teacher of the ninja school

"Projection... Duel Disk... Reuse of Talisman Paper..."

In the courtyard of the Senju Mansion, Mito had just finished listening to Kushina's introduction to this "Duel Disk" and was mumbling to himself.

She finally understood why "Teacher Xia Yan" had to design insanely complicated runic circuits and slow down the wear and tear of those materials.

It turned out to be to reduce the initial cost of learning sealing skills so that more students could learn this course.

According to Kushina, this method can reduce the material cost of practicing drawing basic rune techniques to only a quarter.

When Mito received this data, his expression almost became tense.

Because she knew that just because of this, the young man Xia Yan would be able to occupy a place in the history of the development of sealing techniques.

After all, the concepts of sealing technique and ordinary ninjutsu are very different, so it is very difficult to learn, which makes many ninjas stay away from it.

But the sealing technique is an indispensable technology for Konoha, involving the barrier protection of the village, the production of talismans such as detonating talismans, and even the control of tailed beasts.

Therefore, how to increase the number of skilled technicians who master the sealing technique has always been a difficult problem for Konoha.

Otherwise, the ninja school, which has always been stingy and only teaches the Three Body Techniques, would not spend a lot of money to set up basic sealing techniques courses.

The purpose is to select students with talents in sealing arts, who can then be assigned to sealing classes to continue their studies.

Xia Yan’s method reduced the initial cost to only a quarter.

This means that the cost of training one student in the past can now be used to train four students at the same time.

It is not difficult to see how significant this is to Konoha.

It’s no wonder that Lake Biwa was so high-spirited yesterday and boldly announced that she would enroll more students in her expensive sealing arts class.

For Lake Biwa who discovered a talent like Natsuhiko, I'm afraid Hiruzen won't dare to speak loudly to her in the future.

Although I didn’t dare to do it before...

After some careful thinking, Mito now understood the good intentions of this child, Natsuhiko.

However, new questions arose.

I understand the logic, but why should it be made into a card game?

Obviously as long as you have that idea, you can make a simpler and lower-cost machine.

The only thing that could answer this question was the reason that made her interested in these "teaching aids" in the first place...

Hey, it’s just for fun.

"This is the culmination of so many exquisite designs. In the final analysis, is it just for fun?"

Mito shook his head with helplessness and smiled bitterly, feeling that he couldn't keep up with the young man's brain circuit.

Hearing Mito's complaints, Kushina was still unaware and said enthusiastically:

"Yes, this game is really fun. Grandma, do you want to give it a try?"

"Okay, let me, an old woman, see how fun this thing is." Mito laughed at himself.

After that, she put the duel plate on her wrist under Kushina's guidance.

Mito then took another card handed over by Kushina and slowly placed it on the card slot of the duel plate.

"——Adaptation is not random editing, drama is not nonsense..."

As the card's voice lines sounded, a man's figure holding a wishful stick behind his back in his right hand and building an awning with his left hand appeared in front of her.

If you take a closer look, you will find that this man looks very similar to the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Grandma, look, this must be Sasuke Sarutobi, the father of the Third Hokage." Kushina pointed at the phantom and shouted.

Mito was a little surprised to see his old friend suddenly, and his spirits were lifted.

She looked around the phantom of Sarutobi Sasuke with great interest, and then smiled and said: "It's quite realistic, but how come this kid Natsuhiko managed to trick that guy Sarutobi as well?"

"Emm..." Kushina recalled while recounting what Natsu Yan had said.

"I remember Xia Yan seemed to say that although the school has history classes, they are not taken seriously by students."

"So he wanted to connect history through these character cards, so that students can remember history, remember those predecessors who sacrificed for the village, and remember how hard-won our current peaceful life is."

Of course, Xia Yan also said something about free prostitution, but Kushina didn't understand, so she didn't say it.

"Remember history...Xia Yan, this kid is really thoughtful."

Mito chewed over what Kushina had just said in his heart, and couldn't help but show a pleased expression, and his opinion of Teacher Natsuhiko, whom he had never met before, became better and better.

Not only is his sealing technique unconventional and unique, but more importantly, he also possesses an astonishing awareness and is the true successor to the Will of Fire.

If that guy was still alive, he would definitely hold Xia Yan's hand and ask: "Young man, do you want to spread the fire?"

To be honest, if it weren't for Kushina, Mito would have thought of taking on a disciple.

Why are other people’s children so outstanding?

Thinking of this, Mito couldn't help but glared at Kushina angrily.

Kushina was confused, not knowing what she had done wrong.

…

In the following time, out of curiosity, Mito took pictures of various cards on the duel plate.

Under the last rays of the sun, famous figures from the troubled times appeared one after another in the courtyard.

If it weren't for the appearance and clothing of most of these phantoms, Mito would have almost thought that he had traveled through time and space and returned to the magnificent and chaotic era of the Warring States Period.

Feeling emotional, Mito took Kushina's little hand and sat down at the stone table. While skillfully patting the cards to summon the shadows of the characters, he also commented on them.

Sometimes he and Kushina revealed the embarrassing things that these phantoms had done, and sometimes they complained about how these phantoms looked different, and asked Kushina to take out a notebook to record it and give it to Natsuhiko for improvement.

At this time, she just remembered that the phantom of Sarutobi Sasuke she summoned at the beginning had not yet commented, so she added:

"Actually, I just wanted to say that Sarutobi is not that tall, and his demeanor needs to be more vulgar... Hey, why don't you write it down, Kushina?"

The corner of Kushina's mouth twitched: "Grandma, even if I write it down, Xia Yan wouldn't dare to change it like this!"

After all, this is the father of the third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen!

You don’t want to hang out in Konoha anymore, do you?

You have offended the village chief and still want to leave? It’s not that easy!

Mito also understood what Kushina meant and immediately rolled his eyes.

What about remembering history?

But Mito also knew that his proposal was unrealistic, so he had no choice but to use revelations to vent his inner dissatisfaction.

"Tsk, tsk, that old pervert Sasuke has to thank himself for having a good son... Let me tell you, that guy actually gave me a love letter before."

"Grandma, did you and Grandpa Third Generation's father know each other so early?" Kushina asked enthusiastically.

Could it be that Grandma Mito had an unknown triangle relationship when she was young?

Sasuke Sarutobi, his childhood sweetheart with Grandma Mito, lost to the Senju Hashirama who fell from the sky, and watched his beloved woman fall into the arms of others. For the sake of the peace of the ninja world and the continuation of the family, he even reluctantly joined the village established by the other party.

, driven by it...

Kushina instantly imagined hundreds of thousands of words of sad sadomasochistic stories.

As a result, Mito said quietly:

"No, I'm talking about what happened a few years ago."

Kushina: "..."

That’s just an old man who doesn’t cultivate!

Perhaps because she saw many old friends, Mito's mentality became younger. After breaking a big news, she became more relaxed and continued to give advice.

A cataract patient with long hair appeared...

"The Hyuga Tennin is quite reductive, that's right. Anyway, the Hyuga family all look the same. By the way, he also confessed to me."

Kushina: "..."

She didn't even dare to ask when it happened.

An ordinary-looking man with no characteristics appeared...

"The old patriarch of the Mitomon family, I forgot his name. He has nothing to say. He also likes me."

Kushina: "..."

A handsome man with long hedgehog-like hair and red laminated armor appeared...

"Ah, even that guy Uchiha Madara was tricked by that kid Natsuhiko? How courageous. Let me tell you..."

Kushina interrupted helplessly:

"Let me take a guess, he also likes grandma, right?"

"Pfft! Wrong answer!" Mito leaned into Kushina's ear with a mysterious look on his face and said, "Actually, he likes Hashirama."

"ah?!!"

Kushina was immediately frightened by this shocking giant, so her eyes turned white and her jaw almost couldn't close.

I didn’t expect you to be such a Uchiha Madara!

Wait, grandma keeps saying that Grandpa Hashirama is in two boats, could it be...

"Haha, I'm just kidding."

Mito tapped Kushina's forehead with her finger at the right time to wake her up.

"Oh, grandma, how can you make such a joke!" Kushina puffed up her cheeks and exclaimed angrily.

She had just imagined some indescribable scenes in her mind, as if she had awakened something strange and could not go back.

Mito smiled as if he had succeeded in his mischief, and picked up another card, preparing to put it on the duel plate.

But when she saw the introduction of the card, her hand movements stopped immediately.
