Before he could answer, Nara Shikaku spoke up from the side: "You should take it."
“I’m afraid that if Onoki comes, Hizashi and I won’t be able to hold him off.”
Shenyue Xingyun thought about it and agreed. For the sake of the overall war effort, he could only endure it for a while. He grabbed Heitu by the collar, lifted him up, and turned to walk towards his own tent.
"Kids are such a hassle."
Hei Tu wasn't annoyed at all being carried by him; he happily continued to focus on dealing with the candy that Shen Yue Xing Yun had given her.
After eating for a while, she looked up at Shenyue Xingyun's chin, her little thoughts starting to wander.
'Honestly, why did Grandpa offend him?'
"I told Grandpa to stay home and play with me, but he wouldn't listen. If he stayed home with me, none of this would have happened."
'Now look what's happened, I've been dragged into this mess and got captured by bad guys too.' Thinking this, Kurotsuchi stared at Shingetsu Seiun's face with her big eyes. Even though she could only see his chin, it was still very handsome.
For some reason, she suddenly felt that her grandfather was definitely at fault in the matter of her being captured.
'How could someone so good-looking, and not at all fierce, do anything bad?'
'It must all be Grandpa's fault.'
Thinking about this, Kurotsuchi began to worry about Onoki.
What should we do?
'Grandpa has always been good to me, and I just betrayed him—no, I have to do something for Grandpa.'
"Enemy!" Heitu shouted in a clear voice.
Shenyue Xingyun realized she was talking to her and looked down, asking, "What is it now?"
Heitu: "Please don't cause trouble for my grandfather, okay?"
Shenyue Xingyun: "No."
Black Earth: "Why?"
Shenyue Xingyun: "There's no reason why."
Heitu thought for a moment and said, "How about... you slap my palm twice more, and we'll be even, okay?"
Shenyue Xingyun: "No."
Heitu: "Then I'll apologize to you on behalf of Grandpa, okay?"
Shenyue Xingyun: "What your grandfather did cannot be undone by an apology."
Heitu pouted as she pondered. After a moment, she frowned slightly, as if she had made a great decision, and handed the colorful lollipop in her hand to Shenyue Xingyun.
"How about I share my lollipop with you?"
Shenyue Xingyun didn't answer, but just stared quietly at Kurotsuchi. Just when the other thought he had been persuaded, Shenyue Xingyun suddenly reached out his other hand and snatched the lollipop from Kurotsuchi's hand.
"It was originally mine."
Kurotsuchi: "...!"
Looking at her empty palms, she pursed her lips, and after a moment, her eyes reddened again.
"Waaah..."
……
Fifteen minutes later, inside the tent.
After a quick shower and changing into a clean ninja outfit, Shingetsu Seiun walked out of the bathroom while drying her hair.
Heitu held a smaller version of the colorful lollipop in his hand, sat on the chair, and swung his short legs around, tasting it as he looked around.
Upon seeing Shenyue Xingyun emerge, their gazes immediately shifted from the interior furnishings to Shenyue Xingyun herself.
Black Soil's big eyes shone brightly.
What's your name?
Shenyue Xingyun was too lazy to pay attention to the other party.
Undeterred, Kurotsuchi continued, "Am I supposed to keep calling you my enemy?"
Shen Yue Xingyun still did not answer, and began to organize the ninja tool bag and the items in her space, preparing for the battle that might happen in a while.
Seeing that he was ignoring her, Heitu pouted her lower lip in annoyance.
'Hmph, if you won't say anything, I won't say anything either,' she thought to herself.
After holding the position for seventeen seconds, she realized she was being too childish, so she spoke up.
“I just thought about it.”
"You're right, the lollipop was given to me by you, so it can't be considered an apology gift."
Her gaze fell on Shenyue Xingyun's face, and her tone carried a joy she herself didn't realize, as she said, "How about this?"
"I will repay you when I grow up."
"As long as you don't cause trouble for Grandpa, I will never forget you."
Seeing that Shenyue Xingyun remained silent, Heitu took it as a tacit agreement and excitedly asked, "How about I become your apprentice?"
Seeing that Shingetsu Seiun stopped moving and looked at him, Kurotsuchi said, "Grandpa said that a talent like mine is hard to find even with a lantern in the ninja world."
"The village's Jonin are dreaming of me becoming their apprentice."
"How about it? Now, if you agree, you'll get off easy."
Shenyue Xingyun scoffed, "Not interested."
Although Kurotsuchi cannot be considered a Konoha ninja, Shingetsu Seiun continues to adhere to his policy of 'not accepting apprentices'.
In the ninja world, a wrong disciple is more dangerous than a hundred wrong girlfriends, and he didn't want to put himself in danger.
Hei Tu let out a soft "Ah~".
Why are you unwilling to do anything?
"Really."
After his initial frustration, Heitu's eyes darted around, and he suddenly said with great enthusiasm, "How about I do your laundry and cook for you when I grow up?"
Before Shenyue Xingyun could answer, she shook her head and said, "No, no, washing clothes requires boiling water and detergent, it's too much trouble."
"How about... I marry you when I grow up?"
"Click!" The door opened at the same time as the voice was spoken. Pharmacist Nonou, dressed in a medical ninja uniform, walked in carrying a food box.
Yakushi Nonou stepped through the door with her right foot, leaving her left foot in place, and her gaze fell on Kurodo, whose legs were dangling on the chair. After a three-second pause, she looked at Shinzuki Seiun.
His eyes held a strange and surprised look.
"What kind of look is that?" Shinzuki Seiun didn't mince words with Yakushi Nonou, asking directly. The way she looked at him, as if he were a pervert, made him very uncomfortable.
"It's nothing." Yakushi Nonou quickly averted her gaze.
"I came to see how you are. Did you get hurt on this trip?"
“No,” Shenyue Xingyun replied.
"It's good that you're not hurt." Pharmacist Nonou approached and opened the food box she was carrying on the table: "Are you hungry?"
"I made you some chicken soup. It's from an old hen that's been around for several years; it's very good for replenishing your qi and blood."
As she opened the food box, a rich aroma immediately filled the air. Hei Tu sniffed and involuntarily swallowed.
However, she resisted the temptation of the food and instead looked at Yakushi Nonou with a serious expression.
"Hey."
"who are you?"
Chapter 395 Familiar Sentence Structure
When Kurotsuchi asked her question, Yakushi Nonou's eyes twitched. She never imagined that one day she would be rejected by such a tiny little girl.
She gained a new understanding of the allure of the Divine Moon Nebula, and patiently said, "My name is Yakushi Nono."
"You can call me Aunt Nono."
"Auntie?" Kurotsuchi looked at her, then at Shinzuki Seiun, and finally her gaze fell back on Yakushi Nonou.
What is your relationship with the enemy?
"The enemy?" Yakushi Nonou was taken aback for a moment, then realized that the 'enemy' the other party was referring to was Shinzuki Seiun.
Looking at Heitu's stern face, she felt a mischievous urge. While serving Shenyue Xingyun chicken soup, she said softly, "I'm his girlfriend."
"What's wrong, little one?"
"Girlfriend?" Heitu had never heard of this word before: "What does it mean?"
"Not your wife, right?"
Yakushi Nonou smiled and said, "That's about right."
Heitu gave a soft snort, straightened her back, stopped swinging her legs, and gripped the lollipop in her hand tightly.
"In that case, you should break up with him as soon as possible."
Pharmacist Nonou raised an eyebrow: "Break up?"
“That’s right,” Kurotsuchi said matter-of-factly. “When I grow up, I’m going to marry him. It’s not a good idea for you to keep hanging around like this.”
"It's better for all three of us if this ends quickly."
Shingetsu Nebula, who remained silent to the side, thought, "..."
That sentence structure looks so familiar.
After a moment of silence, he was about to end their boring conversation when Yakushi Nonou said in a serious tone, "But you still have many years before you grow up."
"He can't wait that long."
Upon hearing this, Heitu was immediately stumped.
Watching the little brat struggling with his nails, Yakushi Nonou chuckled. Just when she thought she had won the verbal battle, Kurotsuchi suddenly raised her head.
