After the peak of the clan, Masahiko followed the clan head Uzumaki back to Uzumaki village.
“Nephew, have there been any promising young geniuses in our clan recently? After I returned, I thought I would bring some disciples under my wing. ” Masahiko said as they walked home.
“Well, there may be some, I don't know much. You can go back and collect all children under 12 years old, and choose whomever you want .. “
Masahiko rolled his eyes, This patriarch did not give him a clear answer, choose who do you want? Did they? A vegetable?
“Well, if you have a recommendation, just tell me. I am looking for talented ones, even if they are not that strong, it is okay, I am looking for potential ones.”
After saying this, Masahiko suddenly remembered something.
“Why have witness points for 18-Guardians not been transferred yet? Does it need to be formally established with all its members first? ”
“I really hope the clan will soon send their people to join the guard troops ..”
After a day of running, Masahiko and patriarch Uzumaki finally arrive at the village of the Uzumaki clan. Masahiko finally saw his hometown again after four long years.
“After these four years, many things have changed,” said Masahiko, many new buildings were added to the village.
“Population has doubled in recent years since the last time you were here; thus, new houses are built.” The Patriarch explained to Masahiko when he saw Masahiko's confused face.
Masahiko nodded.
The Patriarch looked at Masahiko and said: “Well, I've been out for five days, I should return immediately to handle the Klan's affairs. I'm going back to my house. You know your way from here, right?”
After saying that, the Patriarch turned around and left.
Masahiko took a walk to his house, which he hadn't seen for four years. Along the way, he saw familiar and unfamiliar faces. People who knew him welcomed him.
He arrived at his house when he opened the door; he was surprised that it was clean and tidy. It seems the Patriarch took care of the cleanup all along.
After taking a quick look, Masahiko went to her bedroom and lay down on her bed.
“Since I got my first witness points, I've been busy myself looking for more. I spend most of my time doing this. But is it really worth it? There should be a lot to see later. Is it worth to stay for many years in Senju?”
Pondering.Now he saw himself as a man who had always pursued strength. The only goal is to get stronger.
“With my current strength, except for the Shinobi twin Gods, no one can threaten my life in this era
“Maybe I should slow down a little. The system's not going anywhere, it's mine. Over the next few years, I was able to clear my mind, wait for the founding of Konoha, and train some disciples, I think. Think of it as my retirement. ”
Masahiko suppressed this feeling and relaxed his body. He was so tired that he simply took off his soaked clothes and did not sleep with anything except ****** ********.
The next morning, Masahiko was awakened by the sound of the door being opened and then closed again.
“What the fuck? Did the Patriarch visit me this early, wait! This chakra is not his.”.
The one who opened the door was a girl with dark gray eyes, holding a small bucket of water and some cloth on the other side.
When she saw Masahiko, the girl was stunned for a moment, then she threw water at Masahiko.
“People pervert!”
Masahiko was splashed by the cold water, but he could not help but smile helplessly.
“It's not my fault you sneaked into my house and found me naked.”.
About half an hour later, in the patriarch's hall.
The girl repeatedly bowed and apologized to Masahiko.
“Oke Nanako, Masahiko's grandfather isn't mad at you. You can go and continue your work. ” The Patriarch comforted the girl and told her to leave.
When the girl came out, Masahiko looked at the Patriarch. What happened this morning certainly left Masahiko with some questions.
Patriarch explained, “Nanako is an orphan.”
“He is not talented in Ninjutsu, at the age of 11 he is still a Genin, so I asked him to do some work, including cleaning some houses.”
“Yatim strays ..” says Masahiko weakly.
In the period of warring nations, there were actually not many orphans. There were many deaths and injuries, and the people who participated in the war knew about this risk, they usually had relatives to take care of their children in case something happened.
Usually, people have three to five siblings. His family was large, which also meant they had many uncles. So if their father dies, their uncle will take care of them. It's like an unwritten rule in warring countries. So even though the parents are dead, usually other family members will take care of them.
“So he's not very talented in ninjutsu. That's why he's helping with his duties, huh? ” Masahiko still asks, “Did he not have any other relatives in Uzumaki, uncle or aunt?”
The patriarch smiled and said, “His uncle is Uzumaki Murasaki. But they died two years ago.”
“Murasaki was also killed in the war. I don't want him to be completely abandoned, so I take care of him.”
Masahiko nodded, though,
“I understand, but as your second“ ”daughter, her character is not soft. He poured me a bucket of water, it was very different.
Patriarch smiled bitterly, “Yeah, his natural character is quite rough, I want to teach him to be gentle, but ..”
Masahiko shook his head, “Nah, this is good.. As an orphan, he should be able to protect himself.”.
“Ah, do not forget to collect some young people of our clan for me to choose as a disciple.” Masahiko paused, then continued, “Nanako can come too.”.
Hearing this, the Patriarch looked very happy, “Thank you, uncle.”
Masahiko then walked away and waved his hand, “I was awakened by a bucket of cold water this morning. I want to clean myself properly..”.
At the Masahiko house,
It felt like deja-vu after he entered the house, Nanako opened the door while holding a bucket of water and a few laps in her hand.
Masahiko instinctively tries to dodge, but suddenly Nanako bows to Masahiko (a Dogeza) and apologizes.
“Oh... No water this time.. Ahem... I've spoken to the Patriarch, and he forgave you, so what are you doing here?” Masahiko asked Nanako.
“Kakek Masahiko, I came to clean the house.” Nanako stood up and picked up the cleaning tool.
“Oh, okay, it's okay I'll do it myself. The patriarch seems to be looking for you, so you better go to him. ” Answer Masahiko.
“Oh I understand.” He turned around and ran out again.
Masahiko looked at the cute little sheets on the bed and the cleaning tools Nanako had left behind. He had completely lost the motivation to do the task.
“No, no, no... Don't sleep now! I better eat something and then clean myself up. ”
“Oh my dear bedsheets, I must quickly dry them ..”
