Chapter 70 First meeting with Obito!

Evening

The Chunin Exam was over, and the three of them watched Might Guy cheering excitedly.

Might Guy danced and said:

"You are really amazing. In less than a year, all of you have been promoted to Chunin. I am proud of you. This is the struggle, hard work, and hard work of youth..."

When Might Guy said this, he was so excited that he shed tears. People passing by would look at him with strange eyes, and Bai An and the other two were so embarrassed that they could even squeeze out a three-bedroom apartment.

Bai An quickly stopped Might Guy and pushed him while saying:

"Teacher, teacher, you see we have all been promoted to Chunin, let's go and have a meal."

Bai An gave Hinata Jingkong and Inuzuka Hana a look, indicating that you two should say a few words as well.

Inuzuka Hana hugged Might Guy's arm and said with a smile:

"Yes, Mr. Kai, we still have to thank you for your training..."

Hinata Jingkong was explaining the content of his exam to Might Guy.

When they arrived at the barbecue restaurant, the three of them found that changing venue did not make it less awkward, but even more awkward. Everyone in the barbecue restaurant turned their eyes to Bai An and his group.

The three people couldn't stand this socially dead scene any longer, so they escaped through the back door under the pretext of going to the toilet, leaving behind a clone each.

......

The three of them ran out of the barbecue restaurant, chatting as they walked.

Bai An said:

"That generous youth-promoting phrase is obviously very positive, but why do I feel like something is wrong?"

Hinata Jingkong nodded quickly and said:

"Yes, I feel the same way. We are all thick-skinned people, so why can't we stand it..."

Inuzuka Hana rolled her eyes and said:

"Don't drag me into this shamelessness. I just can't stand being stared at."

Bai An said:

"Who cares? We're out now. What are we going to do now? Let's go back to our homes."

Inuzuka Hana yawned and said:

"I'm so tired after a busy day. I was so sleepy after watching the last show."

Hinata Jingkong nodded and said:

"Indeed, even I, a contestant, feel bored, let alone you."

Bai An said:

"Okay, I have to go back and feed my sister. I packed half a roasted deer when I came out just now. It should be cold soon."

......

The three of them went their separate ways and returned to their respective homes.

As soon as Bai Yuan opened the door, a bolt of lightning struck him directly. Bai Yuan's hair stood on end and he rolled to the side.

"Snapped!"

A big hole was directly hit on the floor beside him. Bai An stood up and saw that Nangong Mengwan was going to continue setting off mines. Bai An immediately threw the venison in his hand over and said:

"Hey, hey, hey, stop hacking. I brought you something delicious."

Nangong Mengwan raised her chin, took the venison and said:

"That's not bad."

After saying that, he sniffed it and his saliva immediately flowed out, so he sat on the ground and started eating.

Bai An breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, took a shower, and returned to his bedroom to start meditating and practicing.

......

next day

The three of them left the village early in the morning to carry out the mission. When they completed the mission and returned to the village, it was already around three o'clock in the afternoon.

Bai An returned home and cooked a large table of food. Nangong Mengwan's eyes were shining as she watched. Just when she was about to eat, Bai An directly put four dishes into the basket. Nangong Mengwan's eyes followed the four dishes.

Bai An said:

"Hey, the remaining five plates are yours."

Nangong Mengwan felt a little disappointed and pouted, then turned her gaze to the five dishes in front of her. Suddenly, the disappointed look disappeared, and she picked up the chopsticks and began to devour them.

Bai An smiled and went out with the basket.

......

When they arrived at the cemetery, Bai An placed two bouquets of flowers in front of the tombstone. At this moment, a hand suddenly appeared and placed flowers.

Bai An saw the hand and smiled as he took out the vegetables from the basket and arranged them, saying:

"A rare guest, busy man, are you busy today?"

After Bai An arranged the dishes, he stood up and looked at the person next to him. It was Uchiha Itachi.

Itachi nodded and said:

"Well, I didn't see you in the back hills, so I guess you're probably here. Besides, today is my aunt's memorial day."

Bai An pulled Uchiha Itachi to sit on the ground, handed him a pair of chopsticks, and said:

"That's great. You can drink with my mom."

Itachi didn't refuse. He picked up a small wine glass and poured the wine on the ground. Then he poured himself a glass and drank it in one gulp. Then the two of them ate and chatted.

Bai An asked:

"What is the purpose of the selection? Why is it still closed?"

Itachi leaned his hands on the ground, looked up at the sky and said:

"I can't tell you the details, I can only say that among the ten people who participated in the selection, only three survived, including me."

Bai An sighed:

“It’s a really dark place.”

He looked at Uchiha Itachi and asked:

"How long can you stay idle?"

Itachi thought for a moment and said:

"It'll probably only be a day or two. Looks like I'll have to break my promise to Sasuke again."

Bai An thought of that middle school scene

"Pfft!"

He laughed out loud, and then imitated the scene of a middle school student, looking at Uchiha Itachi and said:

"Ou Doudou, I'm sorry, let's talk about it next time."

Bai Eucalyptus stretched out two fingers and poked Uchiha Itachi's forehead.

Uchiha Itachi said with a dark face:

"Don't force me to chop you in front of Auntie."

Bai Yan smiled and took out a scroll from his arms, threw it to Uchiha Itachi and said:

"Look, I didn't see him on Sasuke's birthday, so you can give him something in your name. You always break your promises, at least give him some compensation, how can you be a brother?"

Itachi snorted when he heard that, turned his head and smiled, stretched out his hand to take the scroll, and without even looking at what it was, he put it directly into his clothes and said:

"No wonder you are so generous."

Bai Eucalyptus rolled his eyes and said:

"What are you talking about? I wanted to teach you Taijutsu, but you didn't learn it."

After a long time, the two got up and left the cemetery.

The two found Hinata Jingkong and went to the hot spring together, and the three of them soaked in the pool.

Hinata Jingkong closed his eyes and said while enjoying it:

"I'm so tired. Why do I feel like doing missions is more tiring than training?"

Bai An said:

"That's right. To put it bluntly, we are just like those vendors on the street. Doing our tasks means going to work. Who would like to go to work and work?"

Itachi scooped up a handful of water, poured it on his face, and said:

"It depends. If you are passionate about it, then you may not feel tired."

Bai Eucalyptus opened his eyes and said:

“Love is really a luxury in this world.”

Hinata Jingkong looked at Uchiha Itachi and asked:

"Weasel, will you officially join the Anbu after this period of time?"

Itachi replied:

"Not really."

Bai An sat up straight after hearing this and looked at Uchiha Itachi and asked in confusion:

"Does this thing have a trial period?"

Itachi nodded and said:

"That's about it. If you want to become a formal member of the Anbu, you must at least qualify as a special jonin. Although I have the strength now, my qualifications are only at the chunin level. I lack the mission accumulation, so I can be transferred to a formal member around the beginning of next year."

Bai Eucalyptus complained:

"Fuck, this is totally the social animal working mode."

.......

After the three of them finished soaking, they went home.

As soon as Bai An entered the room, he saw two more people around the table.

Uzumaki Naruto saw Bai Eucalyptus coming back and said excitedly:

"Brother Bai, you're back."

Bai An nodded and said:

"I'm back. How's your training been lately? Have you been slacking off?"

Uzumaki Naruto raised his arm, squeezed his biceps, and said:

"of course not."

Bai Eucalyptus encouraged:

"Good, keep working on it."

Then he looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen who was sitting next to Naruto and said with a smile:

"Grandpa Hokage, you are here. Have you eaten yet?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a smile:

"I've eaten. I came to talk to you about something."

After saying that, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Nangong Mengwan and asked:

"Who is this?"

Bai An quickly introduced:

"Grandpa Hokage, this is my sister, Nangong Mengwan, she's a traveler."

Uzumaki Naruto looked at Nangong Mengwan in shock and said:

"Wow, a traveler, that sounds cool."

Nangong Mengwan followed Bai An's words, looked at Uzumaki Naruto and said:

"Cool, isn't it? I wanted to take your brother Bai with me at first, but he refused to go. He was too lazy. Little brother, I think you are very qualified. Do you want to..."

At this time, Bai An placed a plate of watermelon and a pot of tea in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen, pulled Nangong Mengwan up and said:

"Sister Wan, Naruto will be going to school in less than half a year, so please stop staring at him."

Bai An turned his back and winked and said:

"There's half a watermelon in the kitchen. Go back inside and eat it. Grandpa Hokage has something to talk about."

When Nangong Mengwan heard that there was something delicious, she ran straight to the kitchen and went into the house with a watermelon in her hands.

Bai Yan looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen and said with a smile:

"My sister is a foodie."

Sarutobi Hiruzen laughed and said:

"My personality is just like yours, straightforward and cheerful."

Bai An went straight to the point and asked:

"Grandpa Hokage, what do you want from me?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen said:

"It's nothing, actually. Jiraiya just came back yesterday and gave me a scroll to pass on to you."

Sarutobi Hiruzen took out the scroll and placed it in front of Bai Yan.

Bai An looked at the scroll and asked:

"Has the teacher left already? Is there something urgent?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen said:

"He said he was investigating an organization recently and already had a leader. He was afraid of losing his target so he put down the scroll and left."

Bai An said:

"So that's how it is. When I was traveling with my teacher, I discovered the existence of a mysterious organization. This should be it."

Sarutobi Hiruzen heard this and asked:

“Oh, what kind of organization is it?”

Bai An pretended to recall, then looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen and said:

"I don't know the details, but it looks like an evil organization with a brutal style of behavior. However, this organization should have been established not long ago, and not many people know about its existence. The members of this organization are almost all rebel ninjas. Oh, by the way, my teacher and I have also encountered followers of the evil god cult. I wonder if they are related."

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought to himself upon hearing this:

"I didn't expect that the Evil God Cult that disappeared would start to make some news again... If this mysterious organization is related to the Evil God Cult, the development of the matter will be very serious... Another point is that it has some relationship with the rebellious ninja..."

Bai An was chatting with Uzumaki Naruto at this time, and the ambiguity and exaggeration of the conversation made the conversation a lot of speculation.
