Naruto: My Ninjutsu is mediocre

The shop owner has a very high EQ, and he didn't mention the fact that Yu Zhen just helped him regulate his body... If he mentioned this, then the two sides would have exchanged. How could "exchange" compare to his "dedication" to Yinghuo and Lord Yu Zhen?

"No, no, if you don't pay, you'll be a deadbeat. Deadbeats are the lowest of the low, not even human beings... Give me a piece of paper, I'll sign the bill for you, and you go ask Xiuzhi for the money."

"You must go, otherwise I will only ask you for this matter."

Yu Zhen actually doesn't despise all deadbeats indiscriminately. He just despises a certain deadbeat who has actually never paid back the money... Over the past thousand years, Yu Zhen's mentality has matured, but not completely.

Or perhaps his mentality has been set, and it will be difficult for him to hate something in the future, but he will continue to hate the things he hated before.

Yuzhen signed the bill, took the bouquet and left.

The shop owner watched him go with gratitude.

He still had to ask for money. This was a business deal between a private business and a public institution, so there was no reason not to accept payment. Of course, the shopkeeper had no reason to accept Yuzhen's money. He was genuinely happy to help Yuzhen, but now... haha, life, one has to be a little cunning.

More importantly, if he didn't ask for money, how would the shop owner have the opportunity to brag about his contact with Master Yuzhen, Master Yuzhen's approval of his flowers, and even his help in regulating his body?

Yu Zhen was holding a bunch of bouquets of flowers. After he turned a corner and there was no one around, he put the flowers into the different space.

At night, Yu Zhen felt that his chakra had recovered almost completely, so he opened the space-time channel again, crossed through the layers of space in one step, and came from the ground to the moon.

The moon is still so lonely, as if thousands of years have not brought much change to it.

After Yu Zhen arrived on the moon, he first glanced at the gray city in the distance, but did not rush into it. Instead, he turned and came to a cemetery not far from the city.

The stable environment makes everything on the moon non-corrosive. In the cemetery, Yu Zhen quickly found several tombstones.

The tombstone is engraved with words from thousands of years ago, which firmly state the identity of the tomb owner.

The cemetery was cleaned up very neatly, indicating that the descendants of Otsutsuki Nagatsuki were still there.

Yu Zhen reached out and took out a few bouquets of flowers from the alien space, and placed them one by one in front of several familiar names.

"A reunion across a thousand years...there's nothing wrong with that, right?"

Just when Yu Zhen was visiting his old friend, another ninja who came to the cemetery discovered his figure. Considering his location, this person could only come to Yu Zhen as quickly as possible.

"Young man, you are..."

Since Yuzhen had just used the space-time ninjutsu, he was maintaining his Byakugan at this time. In addition, he was wearing traditional Otsutsuki-style clothes, so the ninja mistook him for one of his own tribesmen.

He thought Yu Zhen was a young man, but when he saw those white eyes and felt the endless vicissitudes of life in them, his emotions immediately became tense.

"This is such a rotten old monster who has lived for who knows how many years..."

Chapter 207 Just looking

The concept of "temperament" may sound a bit mysterious, but it is actually a real sense of "presence".

Some people just stand there calmly and naturally, and do nothing except turn their heads and look back, but they still make people feel that this person is not easy to mess with at the first time.

If you can avoid it, try not to.

The Otsutsuki clan member who came to the cemetery was instantly filled with vigilance after seeing Yuzhen, but he was unable to take hostile action at the first time.

After all, the environment on the moon is different from that on Earth. Although you should be cautious, there is actually no reason for two strangers to start fighting immediately after meeting.

On the other hand, Yu Zhen came here to mourn his friend. His way of mourning couldn't be to sprinkle the blood of his own people in front of the grave. That would be too outrageous.

"Are you... a descendant of Otsutsuki Nagatsuki?" Seeing that the other party was too tense, Yu Zhen asked first.

This question is quite important. Yu Zhen will adopt two communication attitudes depending on the other party's answer.

Once bloodline becomes thin and distant with the passage of time, it is actually difficult for it to interfere with the state of mind of the "immortal". For example, for Yu Zhen at this moment, would he have any particularly close feelings towards the Uzumaki clan?

It's not very realistic. Yu Zhen feels quite unfamiliar with most of the Uzumaki clan members.

A clan is just an empty name. To truly get along with each other, you have to focus on a specific person, and then decide the way of communication based on your attitude towards that person.

The same is true for the descendants of Otsutsuki Hamura. If Hamura can see the shadow of Otsutsuki Nagatsuki in the ninja in front of him, then certain emotions will continue, otherwise the other party will just be a stranger.

"Changyue... is indeed my ancestor. I am a descendant of this lineage."

After thinking for a while, the Otsutsuki clan member answered Yuzhen's question honestly. The reason was simple: there was no need to hide this information at all.

"You're fine, what's your name?"

Yu Zhen’s logic is simpler: your ancestors were good, so you are good... He doesn’t need to understand this person at all.

"My name is Otsutsuki Kogen, I wonder who you are? I don't think I've ever seen you in the clan."

"Me? You are a descendant of Otsutsuki Nagatsuki. I wonder if you have ever heard of a person named 'Gan'."

"Gan? According to family rumors, the Six Paths Sage had a disciple named Gan. He saved our lineage and was a friend of several ancestors... He lived a long life and maintained constant communication with our ancestors, but then one day, he disappeared."

"I haven't disappeared. I've just been hiding somewhere on the moon and sleeping... I'm Gan, and I just woke up."

"Sir, are you...really a friend of our ancestors?"

Otsutsuki Kozan seemed a little unbelievable, you have been sleeping for too long.

He looked again at the bouquets of flowers that Yu Zhen had placed in front of the tombstone. He knew that this kind of plant was called a flower, but he had never seen so many kinds of flowers... For thousands of years, the passage between the moon and the earth has been isolated, so the cognitive abilities of a considerable number of Yucun's descendants have degenerated to varying degrees.

"I should have been able to produce a small wooden box to prove my identity, but that box was later lost."

Yu Zhen could only stretch out his hand to measure the size of the wooden box.

It was definitely lost because he had erased the summoning mark on the wooden box and transferred it to the coffin of the Sage of Six Paths. This meant that if he summoned the spirit now, he would only bring the coffin and Hashirama's body to the moon.

With these additional details, Otsutsuki Kozun began to believe what Yuzhen said... There was no exaggeration in Yuzhen's tone, and everything has its limits. Since this matter was too outrageous, Kozun felt that it was highly credible.

"Gan... Senior, what is the reason for you to wake up this time?"

Yu Zhen did not respond to the other party's temptation, but asked:

"Descendants of Hamura, I mean, the population and city size of your Otsutsuki clan seem to have shrunk considerably since their most prosperous times."

The words "Otsutsuki clan" make people feel awkward, because the descendants of Hamura can only be regarded as pirated Otsutsuki.

The more he talked about the past and the more surprised he was about the current situation, the more it proved Yu Zhen's identity.

"The survival rate of children in the tribe has been declining..." Otsutsuki Kozen said with difficulty.

Yu Zhen opened his mouth to say something, but swallowed his words... You are engaging in inbreeding here. Not to mention the low survival rate and shrinking population size, it would be a miracle if you didn't wipe out yourselves.

"Also, because of the clan's system of division, conflicts often break out between the two sides, and many people have died as a result of these conflicts."

Otsutsuki Kozun added another reason, which he didn't want to say at first, but for some reason, after seeing the expression on Yuzhen's face, he naturally felt like confessing it.

It’s like complaining to teachers or parents if you’re not happy with your school life.

"Hmm? Another clan-branching system? It seems your ancestor Hamura set a bad example for you after he split the clan... I'm a little disappointed in you."

The development of the situation made Yu Zhen feel a little absurd.

The Hyuga clan implemented the clan system, and the (fake) Otsutsuki here also implemented the clan system. Both sides "coincidentally did the same thing", which makes people suspect that the root cause lies with Otsutsuki Hamura... Hamura divided the clan into two, one part stayed on the ground and the other part was taken to the moon, and then his descendants followed suit with this "differential treatment".

However, the main and branch systems of the (pseudo) Otsutsuki and Hyuga are somewhat different. The Hyuga main family is inherited from a single lineage, and the rest are all branch families. The main and branch families of the (pseudo) Otsutsuki are almost divided into half and half, and the power comparison between the two sides is more balanced. Once a conflict occurs, the consequences will be more serious.

Because the (pseudo) Otsutsuki clan system is not divided by blood, but by the attitude towards the world "created" by the Six Paths Sage.

The main family believes that they should stick to their mission and protect the world of the six realms.

The branch family believes that this attitude of blind trust and even blind loyalty to the mission is incorrect. Things are developing, so how can the Otsutsuki remain unchanged?

If it can be proven that the world of the Six Paths is a mistake, then they should not continue to protect this mistake, but should destroy the world and then create a new one.

All I can say is that the fake Otsutsuki is still an Otsutsuki, and his ambition is extraordinary. As the saying goes, the higher you stand, the farther you can see. The (fake) Otsutsuki are already on the moon, so is there anyone who can see farther than them?

"Senior Gan, we..."

"I understand. It's not entirely your fault. The more closed the environment, the more outrageous things are likely to happen. You are a little absurd, but not completely."

Yuzhen expressed his understanding that the mission chosen by Hamura for his descendants was very problematic. Being stuck in an environment like the moon would at least drive people crazy if not suffocated to death.

The main family seeks stability, while the branch family seeks change. There is nothing wrong with that.

We even have to praise these people for their excellent mental qualities, otherwise they would not have been able to coexist until now.

However, contradictions will only accumulate, and the day when they can no longer be suppressed will come sooner or later.

"Guxian, what about you? Are you from the main family or the branch family?"

Yu Zhen asked. He was just a little curious. In fact, it didn’t matter whether the other party was the main family or the branch family, because Yu Zhen vaguely remembered that in a few decades, a war would break out between the two sides, and then both sides would suffer heavy losses and almost be wiped out... It seemed that only a single descendant survived.

"Me? Senior Gan, our Changyue lineage is quite special. We don't belong to any faction. We can barely be considered the coordinators between the two factions... From the very beginning, our Changyue ancestors have been particularly favored by our Hamura ancestors. As time has passed, we have gained some special status."

"...So, you're responsible for breaking up the fight, right?"

"Yes, Senior Gan."

Yu Zhen shook his head. If the two sides really started fighting, the one who tried to stop the fight would be the one who would die the fastest.

Thinking of this, Yu Zhen took out a piece of paper from behind him, folded it a few times, folded it into a paper bird, and held it in the palm of his hand.

Then the paper bird came to life, jumped a few times, flapped its wings, and landed on Otsutsuki Kozun's shoulder.

"Yin Yang Escape...?"

Otsutsuki Kozun had a good eye and actually recognized Yu Zhen's methods.

Don't think that Yin-Yang Escape is too magical. Just now, Yu Zhen just cut out a part of the chakra and then gave it "activity".

"You are a descendant of Changyue. If you ever encounter an irreversible situation in the future, you can try to summon me. I can provide you with help once."

Then Yu Zhen had an idea and continued:

"Or if you're tired of the lunar environment, you can return to the surface with me now."

Otsutsuki Kozan looked at the magical paper bird and after hearing Yuzhen's suggestion, he had an idea for a moment... The moon is a place where no one lives and it is really not a place for ordinary people to stay.

But then he shook his head again:

"As a member of the Otsutsuki clan, I cannot disobey the orders of my ancestors. I am very grateful to Senior Gan for his willingness to help. However... the main family actually possesses some means to return to the surface, but no one in our Otsutsuki clan has ever given up on their mission."

"Well... as long as you are happy." Yu Zhen reached out and patted the other person's shoulder, and then said nothing more.

It sounds good, but don't go crazy after the Outer Statue is stolen...

The mission is just a superficial appearance. What these descendants of Hamura do is nothing more than being a stubborn dweller on the moon.

Or to put it simply, their thinking has become quite metaphysical, that is, as long as they stay on the moon, they are fulfilling their mission.

In reality, they had no way to stop others from stealing the Outer Statue, nor could they stop the filial son from rescuing his mother.

After all, Hamura's descendants are not Hamura himself.

"Your ancestor Hamura must have left behind a lot of research materials. Take me to have a look."

When Yuzhen first arrived on the moon a thousand years ago, he heard the descendants of Nagatsuki tell the story of the second half of Otsutsuki Hamura's life.

On the one hand, Hamura monitors the seal on the moon, and on the other hand, he has nothing to do, so he can only "write books" to record some of his life experiences and practice results in written form.

He was too idle. There was no place to fish on the moon. It was like being locked in a small dark room. At this time, Hamura could only find a piece of paper and start typing.

Of course, he left these materials in the hope that future generations could learn his methods and better protect the seal on the moon... I can only say that he had a nice idea.

"Senior Gan, what are you doing..."

"I'm just taking a look. Anyway, you Otsutsuki clan only keep those materials as souvenirs. They don't actually play any role, right?"

"..."

Otsutsuki Kozunari could not refute it. Obviously, the descendants of Hamura could not grow to Hamura's level by learning Hamura's knowledge.

Their innate qualities are different. If the two brothers of the Six Paths Sage are regarded as an extension of Kaguya Otsutsuki's life, then the "second generation" including Indra and Ashura have at most half of the innate qualities of the Six Paths Sage.

There are two ways to make a breakthrough in one's innate qualities. First, rely on mutation. Gene mutation always brings endless possibilities. Second, the two brothers Liudao get married and give birth to pure-blooded offspring.

Well, mutation is more reliable. Isn’t the direction of Hashirama Senju’s mutation perfect?

"Senior Gan, just taking a look?"

"Of course, I need to confirm some information... I'm already this old, how can I lie to a child like you?"

Yu Zhen is not lying, but the meaning of "just looking" is similar to "just rubbing".

"I can enter the data vault, but you... I can't bring a stranger like you into the core area of ​​the Otsutsuki clan."

"Don't worry, just go in by yourself, I can catch up with you."

Yu Zhen can use space-time ninjutsu, and he can even use more than one space-time ninjutsu. Sneaking into secret areas is nothing to him... When he was White Zetsu, he was good at sneaking. Now that he has become the Divine Tree Man, although the means he uses are different, he can still easily achieve his original goals.

The two parties made an agreement, and then Yuzhen prepared to look through the information left by Hamura.

It's not that Otsutsuki Kozen trusts Yuzhen so much, but...
