Chapter 454 Morning Meeting
Perhaps he was a little tired after running around for many days, and Sheng Shu fell asleep in a daze.
After an unknown amount of time, he heard footsteps, followed by a familiar voice.
"Uncle, uncle."
"Senior brother, senior brother."
Two half-grown children, a boy and a girl, came up to him and gently woke him up from his sleep.
"Why are you here if you're not sleeping?"
Sheng Shu half opened his eyes, looking at Ginci and Cangyue in front of him, thinking that this generation relationship was quite confusing.
"I couldn't sleep, so I came to play with you."
The two excited little guys were embarrassed to disturb their friends' sleep, so they went to find the rope tree.
"If you don't sleep, I won't sleep either?"
Sheng Shu glared at the two of them unhappily, then half-sat up lazily.
"Uncle, today is really interesting."
"That old man came to pick us up, and he clearly had a smile on his face."
"But I always feel that he is in a bad mood."
"Are you angry with him, hehe~"
Ginci took off his shoes and sat on the bed, and Cangyue sat down next to him.
Two pairs of eyes stared at the rope tree without blinking, waiting to eat the melon.
"What are you talking about? Am I the kind of person who doesn't respect the elderly and love the young?"
"I just want to learn some ninjutsu from him as a junior."
Sheng Shu explained in a serious manner, without revealing any dirty thoughts.
"Brother, you are nothing."
"The Light and Heavy Rock Technique was originally stolen by Uncle Chuan Feng, and you still want to learn it from him."
Cangyue chuckled and said it was no exaggeration to say that Shengshu was taking advantage of the situation.
"How can you scold your uncle?"
Xiao Yinci taught Cangyue a lesson with a stern face, which made Shengshu feel warm inside.
Blood is thicker than water, and nephews are closer than brothers.
"It's not the first day you've met him."
Ginji's next words left Nawaki with a chill in his heart.
"Hahaha~"
Cang Yue couldn't hold back any longer and burst into laughter.
"You two little bastards, don't even think about getting any benefits from me in the future."
Sheng Shu raised his hand and hit each of them. Do you really think he has no temper?
"Oh, uncle, don't be angry!"
"We were wrong."
Ginji covered his head and admitted his mistake quickly, which could be considered a family tradition.
"That's it."
Cangyue pouted to act cute, and Shengshu could no longer pretend.
"Okay, both of you, none of you are good."
Looking at the two clever guys in front of him, even if Sheng Shu was really angry, his anger would calm down now.
"Brother, I heard from Uncle Chuan Feng that the Third Raikage is very powerful."
"You'd better not take any risks on your own."
Cangyue's concern for Shengshu also comes from the bottom of her heart, she knows what kind of person Shengshu is.
I came here tonight with the intention of persuading him to pay attention.
"You don't have to say it."
"It's not our business, so why do you expect me to risk my life?"
Sheng Shu rolled his eyes helplessly. Do I need a reminder from a little girl like you?
But my heart is indeed warm!
"Uncle, just learn some skills from that old guy."
"I'll just follow you and drink some soup."
Ginci was very generous and not greedy at all.
As the successor of Wood Release, his talent in Earth Release is even greater than that of Rope Tree.
"Drink plain water, or soup."
"You weren't the one who made fun of me just now, right?"
Rope Tree poked Ginci's forehead, this boy is worthy of being his brother-in-law's son.
That's really like being unable to move when seeing the benefits.
"Hehe~"
Yinci raised his eyebrows with a sly smile, which made Cangyue move away from him with disgust on his face.
"This place is not like Minato's place, so be careful when you go to the battlefield."
"Experience is the main thing, don't just rush forward."
"Stay out of my sight."
"Do you understand?"
After the joke, Shengshu started to explain seriously.
Putting aside personal relationships, these children are the rising stars of Konoha.
If something really went wrong under his leadership, he really wouldn't know how to explain it when he returned.
What kind of problems has my brother-in-law created for me?
"Got it, I promise to keep it in mind."
Ginci and Cangyue both agreed immediately. Although they were still young, they were not ignorant.
"That's fine. The battle situation is unclear now."
"I'll think about it after the meeting tomorrow."
Sheng Shu didn't completely treat the two of them as children, and still revealed some information.
"it is good."
Ginci and Cangyue nodded without saying anything else.
"Go back and rest. I'm tired."
Shengshu waved his hands to drive the two annoying guys away.
"Good night, brother (uncle)."
Watching the two people leave, a smile appeared on Shengshu's lips.
"These two little guys."
Sheng Shu shook his head and lay down again, as if he could understand how his brother-in-law felt when he raised these children.
The night was calm and the sun rose quietly in the east.
After a good sleep, Nawaki and a group of Konoha ninjas had breakfast and returned to the house to wait for notification from the Iwagakure.
He didn't have to wait long, and in less than half an hour, an Iwa ninja came and invited Nawaki to attend the meeting.
Under the guidance of Iwashi Ninja, Nawaki came to today's meeting room alone.
As soon as I entered the door, I found that almost everyone inside had arrived, with only one empty seat left.
"Hello everyone, I am Senju Nawaki of Konoha."
Noticing that all eyes in the room were drawn to him, Nawaki did not get nervous. He introduced himself confidently and sat down in the vacant seat left by Oonoki.
"Okay, everyone is here."
"On behalf of the Land of Earth, I would like to thank the Konoha ninja for their assistance."
Ōnoki first made some polite remarks, which helped to dispel the hostility of some of his subordinates.
Not only does Konoha hate the Iwagakure, but the Iwagakure also don't have a good impression of Konoha.
"Since Mr. Rope Tree doesn't quite understand the current situation, it's only appropriate to give a summary of the recent war today."
"Keiko."
Oonoki called out a name and a man of medium build stood up.
This is the new intelligence chief who took over Nakano Daisuke's position.
"We have fought the Kumo Ninja five times since their invasion."
"During the first battle, our Five-Tails Jinchuriki was killed by a sneak attack from the Third Raikage's son and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki."
"Without a high-end fighter, we have been at a disadvantage in subsequent battles."
Nawaki listened to Keiyuki's story without any sadness or joy, but the two Cloud Ninjas who killed the Five-Tails Jinchuriki caught his attention.
As for whether it was a sneak attack or not, he pretended not to hear it.
It's not like he hasn't attended such meetings to flatter himself.
After all, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki had fought against his sister and brother-in-law, so he knew that Han’s strength would not be too weak.
"..."
"Under the wise leadership of the Tsuchikage-sama, we are still fighting back and forth with the Cloud Ninjas."
Keiko even flattered him at the end, worthy of being the successor.
After hearing everything, Sheng Shu sneered at this. If you can really fight against the Cloud Ninjas, would you come to Konoha for help?
Although there was some flattery, Keiko did not embellish the battle situation.
Sheng Shu filtered out the nonsense and sorted it out in his mind, but it could be summarized in just a few sentences.
The Rock Ninjas lack high combat power and are defeated in every fight. Now they are in urgent need of someone to take over.
Thinking of this, Shengshu had a clearer understanding of his own position, and was more confident that he could blackmail Ōnoki.
