Ninja school teacher, I can become stronger by teaching.

Chapter 698 Changes
The Land of Rain, Six Paths City.

At noon, after training, Nagato went to the laboratory to find Scorpion, and went to the Ninja Clan cafeteria with Scorpion to have lunch.

In the past, if Konan and Yahiko were in the Ninja Clan, Nagato would usually choose to eat with them. After Sasori came to the Ninja Clan, Nagato basically ate with Sasori.

Because even if he wasn't eating with Yahiko and Konan, they definitely wouldn't be alone.

But Scorpion is different. Scorpion's position in the Ninja Clan is very delicate. Apart from him as a friend, no one else can say anything. If he is not here, Scorpion will definitely have to eat alone.

Nagato had a period of time of wandering alone. At that time, he felt that there was no place for him in the entire ninja world. Even in the bustling and noisy streets, he was still surrounded by endless loneliness.

Things didn't change until they met Yahiko and Konan, and the three of them supported each other.

At that time, he was still in the Rain Country, surrounded by people from the Rain Country. How could Scorpion not feel lonely being alone in a foreign country?

Nagato didn't think he had the ability to completely pull Scorpion out of hatred and completely dispel Scorpion's loneliness. He didn't have the ability like Mu Yue, nor the personal charm like Yahiko.

Nagato just hoped that Scorpion, who had a similar experience as him, would feel better. After all, he now had the energy to help others.

His experience was even more tragic than Scorpion's, but he met Yahiko, Jiraiya, and Muyue.

"These ninjas are dumber than each other. It's so hard for them to learn such simple operations. I was already at this level when I was seven years old."

While eating, Scorpion couldn't help but complain about the Shinobi clan ninja who was learning technology in his laboratory.

"After all, their foundation is very poor, and you are a genius." Nagato said.

There are not many ninjas in the Ninja Sect who know puppetry, and this is also Mu Yue’s blind spot in knowledge.

"That's true, but fortunately they are still diligent, otherwise they would never have made any achievements in puppetry in this lifetime." Scorpion thought for a while and said.

Although they did not have the same talent as him, Scorpion had to admit that those ninjas from the Ninja Clan who came to study were very hardworking.

"Would you like to go for a walk in the city?" Nagato asked after dinner.

"Six Paths City is much more prosperous now than before, and has undergone many changes."

Scorpion came to the Ninja Clan during the Youth Martial Arts Tournament. Except for the initial period when he worked on a construction site for some time, Scorpion basically stayed at the Ninja Clan headquarters and never went out.

During the Youth Martial Arts Tournament, Six Paths Castle could only be described as a small town with relatively good development. Later, the Ninja Clan seized the opportunity of the Ninja World War, and Six Paths Castle developed very rapidly. The scope of the town was more than ten times larger than before, and its prosperity was not inferior to that of the capital of the Rain Country.

"How prosperous can this remote and poor place be?" Scorpion curled his lips.

"But it's okay to walk around. Maybe we can find a chance to escape from prison."

"Then let's go." Nagato nodded, not caring about what Scorpion said about jailbreaking.

After Sasori was brought into the Ninja Clan, Nagato was always in charge and he witnessed the changes in Sasori.

At the beginning, Scorpion really tried every means to escape from the Ninja Clan, but later he became depressed when he found out he couldn't do it. Then he took the initiative to face it and tried hard to behave well to reduce his sentence.

Now, Nagato could occasionally see Sasori in a good mood because of various things.

Such a Scorpion may leave the Ninja Clan after serving his sentence, but he will never escape early.

Then, the two of them strolled around Liudao City.

"It's better than before, but that's all." Scorpion commented.

"Actually, Scorpion also deserves some credit for this." Nagato said suddenly.

Scorpion raised his head proudly. His skills must have made a lot of money for the Ninja Clan.

"Remember this place? The construction site you were working at before was responsible for the construction of this area." Nagato pointed to a house.

Scorpion's face darkened slightly. So this was the credit he was referring to? Maybe he really had laid some bricks.

"Just kidding, Scorpion, your contribution to the Ninja Clan is much greater than building a house." Nagato said with a smile.

"Has anyone ever told you that you have no sense of humor? This is not funny at all." Scorpion said bluntly.

"Is that so?" Nagato looked disappointed.

He really didn't tell jokes very often. When he was in Akatsuki, he was usually the one who needed to liven up the atmosphere.

"Well, it's still a little funny, but not much. Maybe people with a low sense of humor will laugh." Scorpion changed his tone.

"That's good." Nagato breathed a sigh of relief.

Who doesn't want to be a relatively humorous person? Nagato sometimes fantasizes that he can tell jokes so well that he can make Konan laugh.

"Lord Scorpion."

The two continued to stroll in Liudao City. Suddenly, someone called Scorpion's name. Scorpion turned his head and looked towards the source of the voice.

Few people in the Ninja Clan know his name, except for the top leaders, that is, the Ninja Clan ninjas who have learned techniques and undergone surgery.

"Are you shopping with Nagato-sama? That's rare."

The Shinobi waved his prosthetic limbs and greeted Scorpion, trotting over to the two of them.

"He just insisted that I accompany him for a walk to help him digest the food." Scorpion explained.

"Well, Lord Scorpion, you seldom visit Liudao Castle, right? If you are hungry at night, you can go to the west side of the city. There will be many snack stands there at night, and there is a restaurant that serves very good tempura." The Shinobi Clan ninja introduced enthusiastically.

This was the first time he saw Scorpion outside the Ninja Clan’s base, so he thought that Scorpion rarely went out and was not familiar with Six Paths Castle.

"By the way, if you like ramen, you can't miss the one in the commercial street." "Also..."

"I understand." Scorpion had never felt such enthusiasm before, and quickly called for a stop.

Nagato also spoke with a smile at this time and continued to lead Scorpion forward.

"Are people from your Rain Country so enthusiastic?" asked Scorpion.

It’s just after lunch, why are you already introducing a bunch of food?

"His name is Kusuke. When he doesn't have any missions, he likes to go to various restaurants or food stalls to taste food. He is very interested in this aspect." Nagato replied.

Scorpion showed an expression of "I see."

"But he is not like this to everyone. He is so enthusiastic towards you because you are Scorpion, and you saved his ninja career." Nagato said seriously.

Whether it is arms or legs, they are all indispensable to a ninja.

If an ordinary ninja loses an arm or breaks a leg, he will definitely not be able to be a ninja anymore.

"If he is no longer a ninja, he may still be able to make a contribution to the Ninja Clan in other places, but he may not have the income to eat and drink freely anymore."

Scorpion remained silent, thinking silently.

He had many reasons for learning puppetry, including wanting to avenge his parents, his own interest in puppetry, and even the idea of ​​practicing it out of boredom.

The only thing he never thought of was using puppetry to save people.

After all, when Scorpion came into contact with puppetry, the information he obtained was that puppetry was a ninjutsu used for combat.

"So I'm really grateful to you, Scorpion, for developing this technology. It would be a shame if we had to give up a skill we had practiced for more than ten years just because of an accident." Nagato sighed.

Even the strongest medical ninja cannot regenerate a severed arm, but with Scorpion's puppet technology, as long as the head is still there, it doesn't matter if the rest is gone.

"It's just an inconspicuous green leaf on the eternal art." Scorpion shook his head.

No matter what, prosthetic technology is just a by-product of human puppet technology, and the technical content is not particularly high.

The core technology of the human puppet is the chakra core, which is a technology that can enable ninjas to achieve immortality.

"But it is very meaningful to the Ninja Clan, the Rain Country, and even the Ninja World."

Nagato doesn't know puppetry, but he understands the changes that prosthetic technology can bring. There are always some people in this world who have lost a limb due to various accidents.

Scorpion didn't argue with Nagato, he just praised him anyway.

The two continued to stroll around Liudao Castle. When they passed by a takoyaki restaurant recommended by Caojie, Scorpion bought one out of curiosity to try it.

"It's not as good as he says." Scorpion commented.

"At the end of the day, we eat only to get the nutrients we need to sustain life, and the human body is such an inconvenient thing."

"Maybe it's a difference in taste. I don't agree with your point of view. Enjoying delicious food is an indescribable enjoyment." Nagato retorted solemnly.

He still remembers the happiness and satisfaction he felt when he tasted the ramen made by Mu Yue for the first time.

"Scorpio, you might have such an idea because you haven't come across the food you really like."

"The place where I grew up is much more prosperous than the Rain Country. I have eaten those famous delicacies in the ninja world before, but I didn't enjoy them." Scorpion did not give in.

"That's because those are not real delicacies. If you have tasted real delicacies, you won't think so."

"You are really underestimated. What kind of food can compare to eternal life?"

Scorpio doesn't think those so-called delicacies can change his mind.

Nagato opened his mouth, but in the end, he didn't say anything.

He was confident in Mu Yue's cooking, but he didn't want to make a promise easily.

Mu Yue is not only the leader of the Ninja Clan, but also recently became the Hokage of Konoha. He must have a lot of things to do, and he can't bother Mu Yue because of this kind of thing.

The two people who were arguing did not notice that a pedestrian who was buying snacks on the street showed a look of surprise when he saw them, but quickly returned to his normal expression.

"He's working with the ninja master's disciple and they have such a good relationship. It seems like he's really joined the Ninja Clan." The Sand Village spy thought.

The biggest business card of the Ninja Clan is Sosuke, who has the potential to become the strongest person in the Ninja World after Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The second is Nagato, who not only has the special identity of being Sosuke's disciple, but also has the title of the number one genius in the ninja world.

The interaction between Scorpion and Nagato is not like that of collaborators, but more like that of close companions.

The Sand Village spy quickly finished his snack without making a sound and reported the intelligence he had gathered back to the Sand Village.

PS:

First update, adjustment failed miserably.

My head felt weird while I was writing today. It felt swollen, which made my already slow speed even slower.

Please give me next month's ticket. Double the amount. There are only two days left.
