Chapter 42

　　"How about going to Konohamaru?"

　　This idea was rejected by him as soon as he came up with it.

　　The Third Generation is not dead yet. Now go to Konohamaru and ask him to become his disciple. The Third Generation will definitely stop him.

　　"Trouble!"

　　"Ninja school, can it start early!"

　　There are so many young talents in the ninja school. Even if their qualifications are not as good as those of Naruto and Sasuke, the quality is not enough and the quantity is sufficient.

　　Even if they are all like Nobita, if we recruit dozens of them, wouldn't it take off?

　　Shuimu walked down the street with a melancholy look on his face. He was very unhappy that he couldn't receive a disciple.

　　At this time, three little ghosts passed by.

　　"Hehehe, I finally defeated Grandpa!" Konohamaru said happily.

　　Menghuang: "What? The seduction technique you used is not considered a defeat at all. A real defeat is to defeat someone head-on with great strength."

　　Sniffle Kid: "Konohamaru, I think Moe is right. The seduction technique is useless to me, and the Third Generation will not fall for it. He must be pretending."

　　Konohamaru was not happy.

　　"Who said he was pretending? Didn't you see that his nosebleed came out?"

　　"Who says it must be defeated head-on? No matter what technique it is, as long as it can defeat the enemy, it is valuable."

　　Mizuki on the side heard this and an idea flashed in his mind.

　　His eyes were wide open and his face was full of excitement.

　　Yes, why didn't I think of it earlier?

　　Who said that to become Xiao Li's master, you have to rely on physical skills?

　　No matter what method you use, it will work. As long as he can make him worship me as his teacher, it will be a success.

　　"Hahaha!"

　　He burst out laughing.

　　The three Konohamaru people on the side were startled by the sudden laughter.

　　"Hey, he's Brother Naruto's master!" Konohamaru recognized Mizuki.

　　Mizuki looked at Konohamaru and said: "You are right, no matter what technique it is, as long as it can defeat the enemy, it is valuable."

　　"Your words inspired me a lot, and I decided to treat you to delicious food."

　　"Meatball shop, you can have as much as you want, how about it?"

　　Who knows, Konohamaru looked disdainful after hearing this.

　　"Tch, what's so delicious about meatballs? I'm tired of them."

　　Mizuki:...

　　Well, the third generation grandson is not comparable to those orphans in the orphanage.

　　Growing up, I had everything I wanted, and it was normal to get tired of eating meatballs.

　　Mizuki asked: "Then what do you want?"

　　Konohamaru rolled his eyes and said, "You are Brother Naruto's master, and you must have invented the Seduction Technique. Can you teach me a ninjutsu that is stronger than the Seduction Technique?"

　　Mizuki was speechless.

　　Didn't I invent the art of seduction?

　　But this is an opportunity, maybe, you can earn a well-qualified apprentice for free.

　　"I have many Ninjutsu here that are stronger than the Seduction Technique. I can teach you them, but you must be like Naruto and worship me as your teacher."

　　Konohamaru said in surprise: "That's great, I'll bow down now..."

　　Before he finished speaking, an ANBU suddenly appeared.

　　"Master Konohamaru, Hokage-sama is looking for you."

　　Konohamaru said: "Wait a moment, I will apprentice first."

　　ANBU: "No, Hokage-sama is anxious to see you, please hurry up!"

　　Konohamaru said disappointedly: "Okay!"

　　Before leaving, Konohamaru said to Mizuki: "Just wait, I will come to you again."

　　Watching Konohamaru walking away, Mizuki sighed inwardly.

　　Alas, it is indeed so!

　　"However, since I have become familiar with Konohamaru, it will be much easier to accept him as my disciple in the future."

　　At this moment, the ANBU said: "Especially Jonin Mizuki, Konohamaru is the grandson of the Third Hokage. Not everyone can be his teacher. Please pay attention to your identity."

　　Mizuki's eyes narrowed, and the next moment he activated his transformation, switching places with a stone behind the ANBU.

　　Anbu felt that the person in front of him suddenly disappeared, and then there was a piercing murderous aura behind him.

　　Cold sweat broke out from his forehead.

　　"Don't talk to me in this tone. I hate bullies who take advantage of themselves."

　　At this time, there were a few "shua~shua~" sounds, and two more Anbu appeared and surrounded Mizuki.

　　"Mizuki, what do you want to do?"

　　Mizuki smiled lightly: "It's nothing, just a joke."

　　After saying that, he turned around and left with a contemptuous smile on his lips.

　　He continued to wander around the village, and after a few hours, he finally found his target.

　　"9996...9997...9998...the last two are still short of 10,000. If you can't complete it, then you will punish yourself by continuing to run 500 laps around the village."

　　A young man wearing green tights was walking upside down around the village. He was sweating profusely and his hands were shaking, but he still persisted.

　　Weights were tied to his legs, waist, and hands.

　　Rock Lee, Mizuki's new apprentice candidate.

　　"Xiao Li?"

　　"Who?" Xiao Li heard someone calling his name, couldn't hold on anymore and fell to the ground.

　　"Uh..." Mizuki was a little embarrassed, as if he was disturbing the other person's practice.

　　Unexpectedly, Xiao Li stood up the next moment and said with a happy face: "The training plan of walking 10,000 times around the village has not been achieved, so next, I will run 500 times around the village."

　　The corners of Mizuki's eyes twitched crazily.

　　Why are you so happy when you fail?

　　You obviously failed on purpose just to run 500 laps.

　　The guilt that had just arisen in Shuimu's heart disappeared in an instant.

　　At this time, Xiao Li had already seen Mizuki's clothes and face clearly.

　　"It turns out it's Senior Mizuki. Senior, when he comes to such a remote place, is he also practicing youth?"

　　"As expected of a senior, he worked so hard. My youth was ignited again, and I decided to do another 300 laps."

　　The sudden burst of enthusiasm, as well as the teeth that dinged and flashed in the sunset, made Mizuki's eyes twitch.

　　"No, no, no, I'm not as young as you."

　　At this moment, Mizuki had the urge to turn around and leave.

　　It's a bit unbearable!

　　"Ahem, Xiao Li, stop for a moment. I came here specifically to find you."

　　Xiao Li asked curiously: "Senior, do you have anything to do with me?"

　　Mizuki: "I heard that you don't know Ninjutsu, Genjutsu, or even Chakra, so you can only specialize in Taijutsu, is that right?"

　　Xiao Li replied: "No, I do have chakra, but the refining speed is very slow, so I can't release ninjutsu and illusions. I can't even use the most basic three-body technique."

　　"So, I can only practice physical skills."

　　"But I firmly believe that I can succeed even in physical arts."

　　Mizuki smiled.

　　"Then, if your chakra refining speed can be increased, the premise is to become my master, will you be willing?"

　　Xiao Li replied directly: "I don't want to!"

Chapter 40: Rock Lee, difficult strategy

　　Mizuki was stunned.

　　Refuse so simply?

　　"Why don't you want to? Is it because of Akai Jounin?"

　　"I don't think this is a problem. Ninja didn't say there can only be one teacher!"

　　Xiao Li shook his head and said, "No, Senior Shuimu, that's not the reason."

　　"I refuse, I just don't want to give up the belief in my heart."

　　Xiao Li's eyes were shining.

　　It is the light of faith that moves forward without any regrets.

　　"In my eyes, there is only physical skills!"

　　"If I have more chakra, like other ninjas, then I may not be able to withstand the temptation and turn to ninjutsu and genjutsu."

　　"It's not easy for a genius to do something well, let alone a mediocre person like me with ordinary qualifications. If I distract myself from learning other things, then my future will no longer have any prospects."

　　Xiao Li's words made Shuimu couldn't help but stretch out his thumb.

　　How many people can understand this kind of consciousness?

　　As the saying goes, having too many skills is not a burden, so some people want to learn everything and master everything.

　　Those parents send their children to various interest classes, such as piano, guzheng, sketching, traditional Chinese painting, dance...

　　The result is that there are a wide range of interests, but none of them can lead to success.

　　On the contrary, even if an ordinary person studies a subject, even if his qualifications are not high, he can still become a master over time.

　　"Well said!" Mizuki couldn't help but praise.

　　Xiao Li said: "Senior Shuimu, thank you. Teacher Kai taught me these."

　　Shuimu looked at Xiao Li with more and more appreciation.

　　"Xiao Li, actually, you are not mediocre."

　　"When looking at a person, you have to distinguish between inside and outside."

　　"The external body is innate and determined by family and bloodline. This cannot be changed."

　　"But on the inside, it is determined by yourself."

　　"In my opinion, what determines a person's future height is not the quality of external qualifications, but the quality of internal mental toughness."

　　Xiao Li's eyes became brighter and brighter.

　　Mizuki continued: "From the outside, your qualifications are indeed not good, even very poor. But in terms of inner spirit, you are truly strong."

　　"You will definitely become a strong person in the future."

　　Mizuki doesn't hesitate to express his kind words!

　　Xiao Li was not proud, but said calmly: "Thank you, Senior Mizuki, for your encouragement. I will continue to work hard."

　　"Well, Senior Mizuki, I have to continue practicing. I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

　　Shuimu had ten thousand moms selling batches in her heart.

　　Damn it, I've said so much, and you just say "excuse me"?
