Chapter 53 [Snow in Konoha]

Winter in Konoha begins with snow.

Although winter is the coldest season among the four seasons, people always choose to reunite with their families in winter.

In this unbearable cold, people will forget the differences and quarrels of the past year and work together to survive this unbearable winter.

However, although this year's winter has just begun, everyone in Konoha's villagers is happy because the real severe cold has long passed.

The Third Ninja World War, which caused heavy losses to Konoha, and the Demon Fox Natural Disaster eleven years ago, were the bone-chilling cold that they could not withstand.

Snowflakes drifted into the house from the window and fell gently on Rock's face, waking him up from his sleep.

Rock, who had just returned from the gray fog space, slowly opened his eyes and looked at the clock beside the bed with some unbearable eyes.

In the world of Conan, he didn't need to go to work, but now he had to get up early every day to catch up with the morning classes at the ninja school.

But Rock has nothing to complain about. After all, unlike him in the Conan world, the Naruto world will have to experience the Infinite Tsukuyomi and the Otsutsuki alien invasion in the future.

This bone-chilling cold will even make all the ninja people unite, temporarily forget their hatred, and just hope that they can work together to survive the crisis.

Luo Ke was born in a bad year and was at the same level as Sasuke.

This means that when he is seventeen years old, he will experience the Fourth Ninja War; when he is in his thirties, he will experience the Otsutsuki Invasion.

If you want to become invincible in the ninja world at the age of 17, it may be difficult. If you don't integrate other Rocks, you may have no hope in this life.

As for throwing all future disasters to the protagonist group and letting them solve them.

To be honest, Rock didn't have much confidence in them. After all, the original work relied on deus ex machina, and there were many coincidences.

If something goes wrong, I will have to wait until I turn 17 to become white.

While thinking about it, Rock took out a piece of thick clothing from the closet, which had the emblem of the Thousand Hands Clan printed on it.

After getting dressed, Rock went out the door.

It was still early before school, so he could have a leisurely breakfast before going to school.

"Rock, I've told you several times that you don't have to spend money to come to our house to eat. You kid underestimated the bond between the two of us!"

Seeing Roque hand him the money, the breakfast shop uncle suddenly became angry.

But he, an ordinary person, couldn't push Rock as a ninja, so he had to take out two more bottles of hot milk and stuff them into Rock's arms.

"This is specially prepared for you. It is produced by cows from the Kingdom of Thunder. It is said that the big cows there can be psychic beasts. You will be a ninja in the future. Your health is very important. You must drink more milk." Become stronger!”

Rock couldn't resist his uncle, so he had to put away the hot milk silently.

He accidentally saved the breakfast shop uncle who fell into the water before, and the two got acquainted like this.

But rescuing people is not unusual for Rock. When he walks into the village now, most of the people have memories of him.

Over the years, Rock has not only received freebies when buying breakfast, he also gets a 50% discount on a barbecue, and even eats a larger bowl of ramen than others.

"Good morning! Rock."

"Are you going to ninja school today too?"

"Have you had breakfast? Auntie will make you some sushi."

There was snow falling in the sky, but before it could reach Roque, it was melted by the enthusiasm of the villagers.

They greeted Rock as if he were their own child.

"Rock!" A voice chased from behind, carrying the wind across the snow and reaching Rock's ears. "I just went to your house to look for you, and I realized you were already up!" Yamanaka Ino caught up with her, and she seemed a little angry.

"You didn't ask me to go to school this time."

"Sorry, Miss." Rock lowered his head slightly and apologized to Yamanaka Ino.

This "eldest lady" is not called for nothing, but because Rock is currently being sponsored by the mountain clan to go to school.

Yamanaka Ino is the daughter of the head of the Yamanaka clan.

Strictly speaking, the identity comparison between the two of them is not even as good as that of Neji and Hinata, so regardless of their age, Rock should call her the eldest lady.

The reason why it was funded by the Yamanaka Clan was because of the Nine-Tails Rebellion.

The Nine-Tails Rebellion caused the displacement of many families in Konoha. For political reasons, most of the ninja families needed to spend money to support some orphans to set an example.

This custom was born during the Second Ninja War.

It’s called sponsorship, but it’s actually adoption.

Ninja families usually hire wet nurses and nannies to raise these children.

Among these orphans, there will be a small number of people who have the qualifications to refine chakra.

For the ninja family, these gifted orphans who are sponsored are considered winners in a lottery. These orphans will continue to be funded until they graduate from the ninja school and become one of the peripheral members of the ninja family.

It sounds very purposeful, and it doesn't seem like a serious charity, but just to fill the ninja family's missing ninja resources due to the war.

But in fact, for ordinary orphans, being chosen by a ninja family is really lucky. After all, there are some ordinary middle genin whose parents are still alive, but there is no way to join the ninja family.

……

on the street.

"You are now the wood escape ninja in the village. There is no need to call me miss like before."

"What's more, I'm no longer your eldest lady." Having said this, Yamanaka Ino felt a little aggrieved.

Originally, everything was fine before Rock awakened the Wood Release. Rock was a ninja sponsored by the Mountain Clan and was very talented.

At that time, her father often joked with her that Rock was a child foster husband prepared for her.

However, Yamanaka Ino was young at that time and had a somewhat rebellious personality. In addition, love was sacred in her eyes, so she felt that this kind of thing must be pursued by herself.

Therefore, she strongly resisted the family's arrangements, and even Roark was hated by her at a young age.

But not long after, while helping the Yamanaka family take care of the flower shop, Rock accidentally helped the flowers revive, showing signs of suspected wood escape...

As soon as his father Hai Yamanaka saw the resurrected flowers, he immediately changed his mind and said something like: "The Yamanaka family cannot control it, so it is better to let nature take its course."

From then on, her child supporter disappeared.

At first, Ino was happy.

But as the days passed, the ignorant children opened their eyes. Rock became more and more handsome and became more and more popular in the ninja school.

Ino also gradually grew up, and finally had her own aesthetics, and then discovered——

Sure enough, the elders had the foresight.

Also, when I was a child, I was really pretending.
