He muttered unconsciously, "Where am I? It's so messy, like a doghouse..."
Jiang Cheng: ? ? ?
"Excuse me, this is my home..."
"your home?"
Temari was slightly taken aback.
At this time.
She suddenly remembered something.
So he quickly looked down and checked his clothes.
They breathed a sigh of relief after finding that there was nothing wrong.
Jiang Cheng, looking embarrassed, said speechlessly, "Don't worry, you were only unconscious for a few minutes. If I really wanted to do something to you, that little time wouldn't be nearly enough..."
Temari blushed and asked, "Then...why did you knock me out just now?"
Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "Isn't it because I'm afraid you'll do something foolish? If you had gone straight to that guy pretending to be your father, do you think you could have gotten away unscathed?"
Upon hearing this, Temari immediately retorted indignantly, "But if what you say is true, are we just going to let the person who killed my father sit in the position of Kazekage of Sunagakure forever?"
"of course not!"
Jiang Cheng shook his head and said with a faint smile, "Didn't you just say that Sunagakure is going to join forces with Otogakure to deal with Konoha? If that's the case, why don't we play along and see what they're really up to?"
Will it count?
Temari stared at Jiang Cheng with her big eyes.
After a long pause, he finally spoke, "But even if I don't act rashly, what about Gaara? My father... no, I should say that guy, the mission he assigned Gaara was to use the Sleeping Technique to remove the seal on Shukaku during the final match of the Chunin Exams!"
"Shukaku is a tailed beast of our Sunagakure village. It is extremely difficult to deal with. If it goes berserk in your village, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
Jiang Cheng shrugged noncommittally: "So what?"
Temari paused, then asked incredulously, "Your village was ravaged by the Tailed Beasts, don't you feel any heartache at all?"
"Feel sorry for me? Why should I feel sorry for you?"
"Are you really a ninja from Konoha Village?"
"Of course!"
"Then why aren't you worried that your village will be destroyed by the Tailed Beasts?"
"Heh, those are other people's houses, what do they have to do with me? Besides, look at my house, do you think I'd feel bad if it were destroyed by a tailed beast?"
Upon hearing this, Temari subconsciously glanced at the room she was currently in.
This room is very small.
It's about ten square meters.
There are two cubicles.
One of the cubicles was a toilet that was as rudimentary as it could possibly be!
Another one is a dilapidated room that combines a bedroom, living room, and kitchen.
Um... calling it a kitchen is really just a small dining table and an old refrigerator.
And the living room was just a tiny open space!
There used to be two wooden chairs there.
However, it was demolished by Jiangcheng some time ago and made into a wooden kunai.
And the bedroom, to put it bluntly, was just a broken bed placed in the corner of the room.
It's ridiculous to say that.
A room of about ten square meters.
It actually took up the kitchen, living room, and bedroom.
The house was practically bare!
wrong.
They might not even be considered destitute.
After all, if a house is completely bare, the walls should at least be intact, right?
But the walls of this room are cracked.
Spiderweb-like cracks crisscrossed the lime wall!
Although it's just the exterior wall cladding, it doesn't affect safety.
But it's still shocking enough.
That's why Temari reacted so strongly when she first saw this room!
They would explain the main reason why this place resembles a doghouse.
Because it's just so awful!
After thoroughly appreciating Jiangcheng's 'home'.
Temari couldn't help but show a hint of pity in her eyes: "This doghouse... no, I mean this house, is it really the place you've lived in since you were a child?"
Jiang Cheng gave a wry smile and said, "Otherwise what? I'm an orphan who was picked up from another village. It's already incredibly lucky that I was able to survive in Konoha Village!"
Based on bodily memory!
He has indeed lived in this dilapidated room since he was a child.
However, there is no way around this.
Konoha Village never showed any sympathy for war orphans rescued from other places.
The reason I saved him back then.
It's just a political tactic employed by Konoha's higher-ups!
Because they need to use this to prove themselves to the outside world.
Konoha is a ninja village full of love.
They will not abandon anyone, not even a war orphan.
And in fact.
Orphans from other villages like Jiang Cheng were rescued.
In the eyes of those high-ranking officials in Konoha.
It was merely material used for secret experiments on various human subjects!
Few people are able to grow up to adulthood.
But there are orphans from other places like Jiang Cheng who have survived to this day and successfully graduated from the Ninja Academy.
For the Konoha leadership, this was actually an unexpected turn of events.
After all, that was their ultimate goal in rescuing those orphans!
It's not for the purpose of nurturing them.
So no resources were invested in them at all.
However, they never dreamed of this.
A complete nobody.
Surprisingly, upon graduation, he suddenly became a teenage genius who attracted the attention of the entire village!
Looking at Jiang Cheng, Temari couldn't help but sigh, "It seems that Konoha Village doesn't treat you orphans from other places very well. No wonder you feel so little sense of belonging to the village!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Cheng smiled.
A sense of belonging?
Ha ha!
He's only been here for a little over two months, what sense of belonging does he have to the village?
If I absolutely have to say there is.
That probably only applies to those few pretty girls in the village!
Jiang Cheng checked the time and realized they were almost at the restaurant, so he asked Temari, "It's getting late, I'm thinking of going out to get something to eat, do you want to come with me?"
Temari nodded slightly: "Hmm~ But you're treating!"
Jiang Cheng shrugged nonchalantly: "Sure, even though I only have a few hundred billion right now, I can still afford to treat my woman to dinner!"
Temari: "..."
After calming Temari down, Jiang Cheng took her directly to the nearest barbecue restaurant.
The two ate something casually.
after that.
He personally escorted Temari back to the inn where the Sunagakure ninjas were staying.
After instructing the other party not to act rashly, he turned and left.
……
The next morning.
Jiangcheng was still asleep.
Naruto Uzumaki kicked open his dilapidated door and rushed in.
"Jiang Cheng, hurry up! There are a lot of strong competitors in today's second exam. We need to prepare in advance!"
Naruto Uzumaki said excitedly.
Jiang Cheng was speechless: "Damn it, there are still two hours before the exam assembly, why are we going so early?"
"It's getting late, many people have already gone ahead, we need to hurry!"
As he spoke, Naruto Uzumaki pulled Jiang Cheng, who was still in a daze, off the bed.
Without saying a word, she pushed him and rushed him to the examination hall.
"Holy crap, who else would do that... Even your dad wouldn't dare treat me like this!"
Minato Namikaze: ???
And so, pushed along by Naruto Uzumaki, Jiang Cheng, in a daze, arrived with him at the Death Forest located in the mountains behind the village.
Just as Naruto Uzumaki said.
Although there are still two hours until the trial exam.
However, quite a few candidates were already waiting here.
Almost all of the twelve Konoha 11 members, including Shikamaru Nara, Choji Akimichi, and Neji Hyuga, were present.
but.
What surprised Jiangcheng the most was...
Sasuke Uchiha actually showed up!
The guy was leaning against a large rock with a smug look on his face, resting with his eyes closed.
His entire body exuded an aura of arrogance.
Jiang Cheng couldn't help but ask, "Naruto, wasn't Sasuke eliminated? Why is he here too?"
Naruto Uzumaki pouted and said, "I heard from Kakashi-sensei that it was the Kazekage who pleaded for Sasuke, which is why the Hokage made an exception and restored his eligibility for the exam!"

"Feng Ying pleading for mercy?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Cheng instantly understood what was going on.
