"The only regret today is that this wine doesn't match these dishes."
Tsunade put down her chopsticks, shook her head, and said.
"This wine is already the best wine in the whole village."
Jiraiya reminded her, "It's not that the wine isn't good enough. It's that the dishes are too good."
"Next ti you leave the village, you can bring back so good wine."
Orochimaru said casually.
"No problem."
Jiraiya smiled and said, "Once I find good wine, we'll gather again."
Natsuki suddenly suggested, "I prepared a cara. Since this is a rare chance, why don't we take a group photo?"
"You really thought everything through."
Tsunade said with so surprise.
"When the ti cos, I'll definitely hang this photo in my room."
Nawaki said happily.
Naturally, Kushina, Nonō, and Minato would not refuse either.
Natsuki imdiately found Mayū and asked her to take the photo for them.
"You stand in front."
Tsunade said, "Jiraiya, Orochimaru, and I will stand in the second row."
Hearing this, Nawaki, Natsuki, Kushina, Nonō, and Minato imdiately stood side by side in front of them.
Mayū looked at them and felt emotional.
They could absolutely be called the present and future of Konoha, the elites among two generations of shinobi.
Back then, Natsuki had suggested that she buy a cara to take photos and hang them in the izakaya as promotion.
Looking at it now, the aning of this photo was not only promotion.
After the photo was taken, the gathering also ca to an end.
"Natsuki."
Orochimaru said in a calm tone, "Co to the First Training Ground tomorrow morning at nine and wait for ."
Without waiting for Natsuki's reply, he turned and left, not dragging things out at all.
Natsuki froze for a mont, then quickly reacted.
Did this an he had beco Orochimaru's student?
Fortunately, Orochimaru had not fallen into darkness at this ti, so becoming his student was not bad.
Natsuki secretly thought it was a pity that his Sensei was not Tsunade.
But it was not as if there was no chance.
In the original work, Naruto had two teachers, Kakashi and Jiraiya.
"Natsuki, from now on we'll be teammates. Please take care of ."
A cheerful smile appeared on Nawaki's face.
"You too. Please take care of ."
Natsuki nodded and said.
"We'll leave first, then. See you next ti."
After Jiraiya finished speaking, he called Minato and left together with him.
Tsunade, Nawaki, and Kushina also did not stay long. Soon, they parted ways with Natsuki and Nonō.
"Director."
Natsuki looked at Mayū and said, "I have a promotional plan here. Find soone to carry it out tomorrow."
"A plan?"
Mayū asked in surprise, "Aren't we using the group photo for promotion?"
"That promotion alone isn't enough."
Natsuki shook his head and spoke about so promotional thods from his previous life.
For example, handing out flyers, posting advertisents, opening discounts, mberships, spending points, and so on.
Fortunately, with this large group photo, promotion would not be too difficult.
Once the izakaya beca famous, he would co over regularly on Saturdays and Sundays to cook for guests with reservations.
But there would not be more than four tables of reserved guests in one day, two at noon and two at night.
In short, it fully embodied what it ant for rare things to be valuable.
"You thought of all this?"
Mayū was greatly shocked after hearing him.
There were many promotional thods she had never heard of.
Mainly because promotion in the current shinobi world was still very traditional. It was nothing like his previous life, where promotion had already beco all-encompassing.
"I just thought of it casually."
Natsuki blinked and said.
Mayū was imdiately speechless.
In front of Natsuki, she felt that he was the reliable adult.
Ti ca to the next day.
Natsuki fully handed the izakaya's matters over to Mayū.
He and Nonō began a completely new stage, which was learning ninjutsu under the Konoha Sannin.
Natsuki ca alone to Konoha's First Training Ground.
"Natsuki!"
Nawaki, who was practicing Water Release, imdiately stopped and waved at him while shouting.
"Continue training."
Orochimaru glanced at him and said.
Nawaki quickly withdrew his gaze.
"I heard from Sensei that your swordsmanship is quite good, and that you even created two sword techniques yourself?"
Orochimaru looked at Natsuki and asked.
"I created three sword techniques."
Natsuki corrected him.
"Attack ."
Orochimaru narrowed his eyes slightly and said.
"Yes, Orochimaru-sensei."
Natsuki took out the Sword of the Thunder God.
With his current strength, there was no way he could injure Orochimaru, so he could give it his all.
One Sword Style, Lion Strike!
Natsuki gripped the Sword of the Thunder God and suddenly slashed out.
The lightning-like blade descended from above, as if intending to cut Orochimaru in half.
Orochimaru only shifted slightly to the side and avoided the sword.
One Sword Style, Thirty-Six Pound Phoenix!
Natsuki turned his wrist, and the Sword of the Thunder God in his hand suddenly sped up, creating afterimages.
From within the afterimages, a sword wave blasted toward Orochimaru.
Orochimaru could not help raising his brow.
This sword technique was more threatening than the previous one.
But he only took one step to the left, causing Natsuki's attack to miss.
One Sword Style, Iai, Lion Song!
Natsuki raised the Sword of the Thunder God.
His entire body turned into a streak of sword light and abruptly vanished.
So fast!
Orochimaru imdiately let out a soft sound of surprise.
He imdiately opened his mouth, and a sword extended from it.
Clang!
Natsuki reappeared.
His Sword of the Thunder God was blocked by the sword in Orochimaru's mouth and could not advance another inch.
Natsuki glanced at it and imdiately recognized it. It was the Kusanagi Sword.
Its greatest characteristic was that it could lengthen and shorten, extending to more than a hundred ters at its longest.
"You're quite good."
Orochimaru praised him.
When he had previously heard Hiruzen say that Natsuki had created sword techniques himself, he had actually not thought much of it.
In his view, how powerful could sword techniques created by a seven-year-old child be?
But now, his opinion had changed greatly.
The three sword techniques Natsuki had created, especially the latter two, had already reached the standard of B-rank.
Orochimaru took a step back and swallowed the Kusanagi Sword back in.
This scene looked sowhat frightening to Natsuki.
"With your talent in swordsmanship, I suggest you learn all the existing sword techniques first, then integrate them and try to create more sword techniques."
Orochimaru pondered for a mont, then said.
"Yes, Orochimaru-sensei."
Natsuki nodded after hearing this.
Orochimaru's suggestion was exactly what he wanted.
After all, he had the system.
"I'll teach you Konoha Style Swordsmanship first."
Orochimaru thought for a mont and said.
Konoha Style Swordsmanship?
Natsuki imdiately thought of the couple, Gekkō Hayate and Uzuki Yūgao.
They were famous precisely because of Konoha Style Swordsmanship.
Although Natsuki had no talent for ninjutsu, when it ca to swordsmanship, because he had inherited Zoro's swordsmanship ability, learning was very easy for him.
April passed in the blink of an eye, and ti entered June.
[Congratulations, Host. You have unlocked Ability Three of the Zeff Template, Head Chef Drop Kick.]
After two months of buildup, Natsuki's izakaya had already beco famous far and wide.
In particular, the guests he received were either rich or noble.
This caused his na to spread among nobles and rchants, and his reservations were even fully booked for half a year.
He had also conquered thirty shinobi with his cooking, allowing him to completely fuse with the Zeff Template.
On Monday, Natsuki went to find Ishida Yū.
"You say you want to challenge the students in the higher grades?"
After hearing this, Ishida Yū could not help showing a surprised expression.
(To be continued.)
