Than just sending it over after it's done.
Of course, it is selected and made now.
It is more delicious and more in line with your preferences.
The main reason was that the time I spent in Tansho Street was too short. It would be a bit of a waste
Yu Yue also rose through the ranks from the employee level, so of course she knows that people prefer to have free time rather than eating with their bosses.
In addition, this time the Duance Street will only be closed for one night, so it will naturally not be so grand.
It’s just a bit regrettable for some people who prefer to be with their leaders rather than being alone.
So Yakushi Kabuto sighed softly.
Sorry to bother you.
Genma Shiranui automatically shut up and stopped humiliating himself.
Of course, the other party definitely did not mean to show off or to make him angry.
But it is this kind of "carelessness" that is more hurtful - what you think is an earth-shattering event is just an insignificant daily routine for others.
It's so discouraging.
However, Kabuto Yakushi was completely unaware of Genma Shiranui's complicated feelings. He sighed and asked in passing:
"Isn't that the case with you guys?"
Of course not.
We don't even have restaurant delivery service.
Shiranui Genma smiled, then turned his head and looked elsewhere, ending the topic.
The food is already served...why not just concentrate on eating?
No matter how hard it is, you still have to eat well.
This is carefully made by a famous chef. You will be missing out if you don’t taste it carefully.
——However, for some people, what they look forward to most is the time after dinner.
For example, Tsunade and Jiraiya had already been flirting with each other in advance.
It’s hard to say about others, but these two really need some free personal time.
I won't say any more. I'm about to cry if I continue.
They are the Three Ninjas, who can come and go freely in this vast world.
I was forced to work in the same place for several years in a row.
This was truly an experience they had never had when they were ninjas.
Although the benefits are good, the salary is high, and the salary makes Ninja excited.
But! There is no freedom!
How can this be possible?
Freedom is still necessary.
Even if it's just for one night, they want to have a good time!
Casino! Nightclub!
The sound of dice! A beautiful lady in cool clothes!
Tonight! It's their carnival!
after all……
"Today! Finally, Orochimaru's grandson is gone!"
In the tavern, Tsunade raised her glass high.
"That's right! We finally got rid of that guy!"
——Orochimaru is really a piece of shit.
It's up to you as long as you are willing to work hard and take risks.
Why do you have to drag them along?
What do you mean that as three ninjas we must advance and retreat together? That's not what you said when you thought it would be better to kill me than fall into the hands of the enemy!
Jiraiya got furious whenever he thought about it.
"Without Orochimaru, the air feels fresher!"
Jiraiya drank the whole glass of wine generously.
"Yes, you think so too!"
Tsunade slapped her thigh.
"It's like a nightmare to have to listen to him ask 'how's the progress' before I wake up in the morning."
Who would call a meeting early in the morning just to discuss work progress?
What are you doing? Just to show that you are good and work hard?
"Ms. Yu Yue doesn't have as many problems as him."
Miss Yu Yue is also troublesome.
But Miss Ugetsu has always been demanding and time-sensitive.
The troublesome parts have been mentioned at the beginning.
As soon as you take a look at it, you can tell that there are a lot of requirements and it is very complicated and troublesome.
But there won’t be too many restrictions on you when doing it - as long as the final result meets her requirements.
When paying, it's also very straightforward.
Only Orochimaru——
"That's right, Miss Yu Yue didn't..."
Jiraiya stopped talking midway through his sentence.
Because although Miss Yu Yue didn't take care of it on his side, she did send other supervisors.
In addition to Orochimaru, there is even his beloved and respected master's wife...
Who can stand this ?
But after all, it is the boss who gives me money.
You can’t curse...
"That's right, Orochimaru is such a jerk!"
It’s better to scold Orochimaru. At least he and Tsunade have something in common.
"Who are you calling a nobody?"
A hoarse voice floated into my ears.
"Of course it's Orochimaru!"
Who else?
Jiraiya answered without a second thought.
But in the next second, he found that Tsunade, who was sitting opposite him, suddenly changed her expression.
Jiraiya finished the wine in the glass and asked curiously:
"What's wrong? Are you drunk?"
No way, you’re drunk after just two sips?
However, Tsunade's expression became even uglier.
That expression, that look, it's as if he saw something horrible and scary...
Wait, horror?
Scary?
As if realizing something, Jiraiya slowly, slowly turned his head.
Then I saw a figure that shouldn't be here.
"Big Big Big Orochimaru?"
"It's me."
The man with long hair and a gloomy face had been listening for an unknown amount of time.
His face remained perfectly calm, but Jiraiya felt as creepy as a frog being stared at by a snake.
"You look very happy."
His gaze calmly swept over the tense Jiraiya and the equally stiff Tsunade.
"This is different from what you said when you first came to me."
Tsunade: ...
Jiraiya: ...
This is very embarrassing.
Not to mention being caught saying bad things about others.
They just said that before they left, they asked him to help take care of their work.
Jiraiya is better.
But Tsunade is...
"Tsunade?"
"ah!"
Tsunade suddenly cried out weakly, then held her forehead with one hand.
"No, I'm drunk."
As she spoke, she seemed to fall weakly onto the table.
"Ah! I feel dizzy! How can this alcohol be so strong?"
Jiraiya was inspired upon seeing this, and he stood up and rushed forward.
"Tsunade, why are you so dizzy? I told you not to drink too much."
As he spoke, he quickly and carefully looked at Orochimaru:
"Look, Tsunade might have drunk too much... I'll take her back to the hotel first - I can't
Let the drunk woman go back by herself, right? It's so dangerous."
It is true that it is dangerous for a drunk woman to go home alone.
But that also depends on who it is placed on.
Orochimaru raised his eyebrows and looked at the two of them with a half-smile, as if to say:
Do you think I believe it?
But the other two parties seemed to have seen nothing and continued with their actions.
"Tsunade! Hey, why are you dizzy?"
Jiraiya said as he lifted Tsunade up and placed her on his shoulder.
Then he said hurriedly and anxiously:
"Then we'll go back first!"
Before he finished speaking, he almost rushed out.
"etc."
However, from behind, a sound like that of a devil's hell came.
"Orochimaru, we did make a mistake, but we have to look at the situation first, right? Look at Tsunade, she's already like this..."
"Oh, I'm just here to deliver a list of supplies that you need to bring back, but if you want to talk about it next time, that's fine with me..."
"What? You should have said it earlier."
Tsunade jumped up suddenly and pushed Jiraiya against the wall.
"What are you going to take back? Let me see."
Orochimaru raised an eyebrow.
In the end, I didn't continue to argue about the other person pretending to be drunk.
"These."
He pulled out a scroll and threw it over.
Tsunade took it, opened it, read through it quickly, and then gasped as if she had a toothache.
This is really a huge request.
But when I thought about what I had done before and the fact that I had just been caught cursing by the person involved.
Tsunade had no choice but to nod.
"I'll try my best."
Regardless of whether we can try our best or not, we have to try our best now.
"Well, I believe you can."
Orochimaru slightly raised the corners of his lips.
No matter if it worked before.
After what just happened, it must be okay.
It can be considered a pleasant surprise.
As for them talking bad about him behind his back...it happened more than once or twice, so Orochimaru didn't care.
Besides, isn't there a saying in this world called "revenge after the fall"?
Not
urgent.
Orochimaru left.
Tsunade and Jiraiya, feeling they had escaped a disaster, looked at each other.
"Um."
"That's right."
The two of them walked hand in hand towards the busy street again, and they walked faster and faster, and soon disappeared in the crowd.
I had such a big fright tonight. How can I make up for the damage done to my heart if I don't have some fun?
Play! Double the play!
——So when they set out the next day, they saw two giant pandas… two people with the same dark circles under their eyes as giant pandas, and they looked haggard.
What is this?
"My Lords, this is..."
Genma Shiranui looked at the two people who looked haggard, as if they were exploited by something, and felt a little worried.
This...I didn't hear about any accident last night?
Could it be that something really happened that they didn't notice?
After all, they are performing 'escort' work.
In addition to eating and drinking well with everyone, Genma Shiranui also works diligently at night.
But he didn't notice anything unusual.
Just looking at the two of them...what could have made two of the 'Three Ninjas' so exhausted and haggard?
Of course the only option is fighting.
He suddenly became nervous.
"No."
Uchiha Shisui shook his head.
"They may simply be..."
"only……?"
"You must be a little exhausted after playing all night."
Ugetsu just finished what Uchiha Shisui was about to say.
Shiranui Genma: "..."
Although it was not intentional, Hatake Kakashi heard it clearly: "..."
Yu Yue didn't think there was anything wrong.
As long as it does not affect work, she has always ignored her employees' personal hobbies.
"It doesn't matter. It's the same if I catch up on some sleep in the car."
It’s not like there’s no carriage.
And to make everyone have a comfortable journey.
She even rented a large horse-drawn carriage that was originally used to transport goods and modified it.
In addition to being able to accommodate more people, it is also because only this type of car can accommodate those specially prepared adjustable seats.
It would be very painful to maintain one posture during a long journey.
Because of this, people
We can play at night and then have a comfortable sleep in the car while traveling during the day.
However, the only two people who really didn't care and were so high that they exhausted were Tsunade and Jiraiya.
Even though the others were yawning, they all looked fine.
There were only these two people, as if they had been squeezed dry.
As soon as he got into the car, he fell down as if in a coma and fell into unconsciousness.
Seeing that the convoy was ready, Yu Yue also climbed into his own carriage.
Her carriage was still the same one from that year - but from inside to outside, from top to bottom, all the parts had been replaced with new ones, adding more comfortable functions.
The safety performance is also far from what it was in the past.
For example, in the past, if a carriage collided head-on with another carriage at high speed, it would still be damaged.
Now, it is entirely possible to smash the opposite carriage while remaining unscathed.
Even if it rotates 365 degrees, there is no need to worry.
"Is your lunch packed?"
"Yes, we have also prepared some for the escort ninjas, no more, no less."
"What about snacks and drinks? Daily medication?"
"I have brought them all."
"Okay, let's go!"
The Yuyue Store Tour Group set out on the journey again.
At about the same time, Minato Namikaze in the Hokage's office suddenly raised his head.
"What's the matter?"
Nara Shikaku, who had just finished his report, asked softly when he saw this.
He thought there was something wrong with the content of his report.
"No... nothing."
Namikaze Minato pinched the bridge of his nose.
"I was just thinking that Miss Yu Yue should have no problems on her journey."
Nara Shikaku paused briefly.
He felt that the subject of this issue should not be Miss Ugetsu and her group.
It should be other people along the way.
After all, with the strength of the Yuyue store employees and the strength of the escorts.
Don't just go out for a trip.
It is more than enough to attack some small ninja villages or medium-sized forces at the same time.
But he was not the type to go against his boss, so he just said politely:
"Genma Shiranui and Ryoma Aburame are both experienced people, so we don't need to worry about them."
"I hope... No, maybe I'm overthinking it.
. "
Namikaze Minato smiled.
That's right.
How could anyone be so blind as to challenge a team like this?
There definitely won’t be any, right?
Because there is no village or town to stay in tonight.
So today's Yuyue Store tour group will camp in the wild overnight.
Although on the surface it seems that they are all "sleeping in the open air".
But the living in the Ugetsu store is definitely not the same as the living in the open air when the ninjas are on their own missions.
The ninjas in charge of the escort work also officially started their work for the first time - they were responsible for building the camp and setting up tents.
Of course people can sleep in the carriage, but since we are camping, a tent is an indispensable part.
After hammering nails into the second tent, Shiranui Genjian raised his head and wiped the sweat off his forehead. He looked at the campsite and couldn't help but sigh:
“This is the most luxurious campsite I have ever built in my life.”
Who says it’s not?
Kakashi also cleaned up the fire.
Not only are there tents, but there are also bedding, pillows, and even folding chairs and tables inside the tents.
The thick tent is windproof and frostproof, so no matter what the weather is like outside, it will be as warm as spring inside.
Moreover, these are not the kind of tents used by ninjas that can only accommodate one or two people. Each of the tents in front of them can easily accommodate seven or eight people at once.
Sleeping ten people would only be a little crowded.
...No, it should be said that if it is placed somewhere else, even if ten people sleep there, the space can be said to be more than enough.
Only in Miss Yu Yue's place would one use the word "a bit crowded" to describe it.
"Ms. Yu Yue, you are really here for a trip."
It’s not just about traveling to the destination, but the journey to and from the destination is also part of the enjoyment for her.
"What else?"
Do you still expect Miss Yu Yue to suffer for a long time?
After years of adaptation, Kakashi Hatake has long been accustomed to this situation.
In other words, if there wasn't this scene, she wouldn't be Miss Yu Yue.
only……
As a guard ninja, the main job along the way is to arrange food and accommodation and set up camp.
This really makes people feel a little complicated.
After all, they are ninjas too...
"What's wrong?"
Seeing that one could sense the helpless sigh of Hatake Kakashi even through his mask, Shiranui Genma asked curiously - what can you think of that would make you sigh at this time?
"I just feel that... as an 'escort ninja', I have failed in my duty somewhat."
Maybe it’s because I was too busy in the past, and I was still young.
At this time, Hatake Kakashi still cared a lot about his work.
“There’s nothing we can do about it.”
Genma Shiranui patted Kakashi Hatake's shoulder as if he were an experienced person.
"After all, among the people we escort, almost one-third are much stronger than us."
And the remaining two-thirds does not mean that they are completely powerless.
At least the little brat named 'Bai'.
If he really decides to become a ninja, his fighting ability will definitely not be worse than others like him.
It’s hard to say anything else, but I can see that he does have some vision.
Don’t be fooled by the fact that his main job now is to make fancy ice and fiddle with various products.
Being able to use the bloodline limit to this extent at this age means he is definitely talented and capable.
If only he had fiddled with this talent a little bit and used it in the area of ​​ninja.
That is definitely another rising star in the ninja world.
Not to mention those who have already revealed themselves or proven their abilities.
In this situation, it is good enough that these "escort ninjas" can do what they can.
It's better than just being a bystander and having nothing to do the whole time.
That is what it means to be truly ashamed. Every step you take is filled with shame... shame for your own strength.
No wonder the Fourth Master had such a subtle expression when he came to talk to me about this matter.
It even seems like there's a bit of guilt.
This kind of pressure is indeed not something that ordinary ninjas can bear.
"You two talk too much."
Aburame Ryoma, who was passing by carrying a new tent, stopped as he passed the two.
"If we don't hurry up, it will be dark soon. What if we delay our work?"
I can no longer use my strength in combat, protection, etc.
You can't procrastinate even on chores and make people question your work ability, right?
"sorry……"
The two of them quickly focused and started to speed up their work efficiency.
With the efforts of several 'escort ninjas'
With great efforts, the camp was basically set up in a short time.
At this time, Yu Yue had already run to a nearby place to get some fresh air accompanied by Uchiha Shisui.
Although the car is luxurious and comfortable.
But after all, you have to sit there for several hours, and no matter how comfortable it is, it can't be as good as home.
It is still necessary to get out and move around, take a walk or something like that.
“There’s actually a stream here.”
Seeing the stream not far away, Yu Yue ran over in two steps.
Ninjas are used to seeing all kinds of scenery in the wild, but for someone like Ugetsu who stays in human buildings all year round, it’s a bit new.
Especially after sitting in the carriage for so long.
"Be careful."
Uchiha Shisui quickly caught up and grabbed Yu Yue when she slipped on the moss.
Leaning against the boy, Ugetsu quickly regained his balance.
…Then she made a surprising discovery.
The boy, who was originally about the same height as himself, had somehow become more than half a head taller than himself.
She looked the curly-haired boy up and down as if she had discovered a new continent.
"What's wrong?"
The boy tilted his head out of habit.
"Shisui, you've grown taller."
"...Of course I've grown taller."
Hearing Ugetsu's surprised words, Uchiha Shisui didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
“We are all growing taller.”
As Yu Yue looked at him, he also looked at the girl in front of him.
It was completely different from the pale and weak image in my memory, as if it would break if the wind blew.
With the careful care of the medical ninja and regular intake of various precious herbs for recuperation, the girl not only grew taller.
The body also gained strength.
Although his skin was still pale, his face had a glow to it.
...In short, it's no longer like the past where 'it wouldn't be strange if someone died at any time'.
This gave Uchiha Shisui an inexplicable sense of pride in his heart -
It’s like seeing a flower that you have carefully watered and cared for finally forming buds and preparing to bloom.
"But you're taller than me... and we almost always eat and drink together."
Yu Yue sighed, and soon her attention was drawn to a slight noise in the stream.
"Are there any fish?"
She supported Uchiha
Shisui stretched out his arm, took a cautious step forward and looked over.
"Miss Yu Yue wants to eat fish?"
Seeing that she cared so much about the fish in the stream, Uchiha Shisui had already started planning to catch a few fish.
Yu Yue shook her head.
"Rather than wanting to eat, it's more like..."
Want to go fishing?
Want to play with fish?
It feels like going to a farm house.
Eating is important, but the process is equally important.
Picking your own ingredients is also an important step.
But before Yu Yue could finish her words, Yakushi Kabuto called out from behind:
"Ms. Ugetsu! Dinner is here!"
"Then let's go back."
Dinner is here, so I definitely can’t let others wait for me.
Ugetsu quickly forgot about the fish and helped Uchiha Shisui away from the slippery stream.
At the entrance of the camp, Genma Shiranui was staring blankly at the carriage that was driving in front of him and the man who jumped off the carriage.
"You mean, these are the lunch boxes that Miss Ugetsu ordered?"
"That's right!" The man patted his chest and said proudly, "Although it's a pretty big portion, we still managed to complete it with quality and quantity!"
"Although it's a little late due to the bad road conditions, I can guarantee that every portion is fresh and complete."
In fact, if it weren't for the need to ensure the appearance of the bento (not to make a mess), they would have come earlier.
But anyway, they didn't delay the guests' dinner time, thank God.
Shiranui Genma: ...
He found out.
Whenever he was shocked by something.
Miss Yu Yue always finds more shocking things to break the 'record' she created previously here.
Genma Shiranui always thought that asking the restaurant owner to deliver meals to the hotel was already an exaggeration.
Who would have thought that meals could be delivered directly to the camp?
No wonder Uchiha Shisui informed them before dark that they were ready to set up camp.
It turned out that it was arranged long ago?
That’s right, Yu Yue said that food and accommodation were arranged along the way.
That means every meal and every night is really planned.
She had asked Uchiha Shisui to confirm this repeatedly before.
That's exactly it.
The arrangements on the Water Kingdom side are their business, but before going to the Water Kingdom, everything here is her responsibility.
Since it is said to be a fun event, we naturally cannot be stingy on food, drink and accommodation.
Living in town provides food and shelter.
It's the same even if you don't go to town and sleep in the wild.
Genma Shiranui was completely convinced.
Although it is said that 'money can do anything', the only one who has truly witnessed this is Miss Ugetsu.
——This is probably the highest level of 'doing whatever you want'.
The Yuyue Store Tour Group traveled towards the Water Kingdom with a high quality of life.
Because everything was arranged perfectly in advance, people were not tired from the journey but were very happy.
Some people who were travelling far away for the first time couldn't help but sigh: "It turns out that long-distance travel is so interesting - no wonder everyone likes to travel far away."
Genma Shiranui and Kakashi Hatake opened their mouths several times to retort.
They want to say that not all travel is like this. Long-distance travel is, of course, mostly tiring and exhausting.
Especially when the ninjas are on missions.
Those days when you really have to sleep in the open air and use the sky as a blanket and the ground as a bed are not very common.
They had no time to eat on the road and could only drink cold water and chew raw Bingliang pills. There were times when they even went hungry because they had no Bingliang pills at all.
only……
Considering that they are employees of Ugetsu Store.
If I had always traveled with Miss Ugetsuki, I would probably find it difficult to understand that kind of fatigue and hardship.
Let’s not talk about it then.
Talking too much will only make you cry.
But there is nothing absolute in the world.
No matter how cleverly you plan , plans often cannot keep up with changes.
Like this night.
The dinner that was supposed to be delivered was not delivered until the sun set and night fell.
Yu Yue's expression suddenly turned ugly. !
