Chapter 23 Kurama Yakumo (Ch 23)

After school, Naruto jumped on the roof, thinking about the transfer student.

“Kurama Yakumo…”

He kept repeating the name, and the plot related to this person in the original work came to his mind. This is an original character in the animation. She comes from the Kurama family, a fallen ninja clan in Konoha.

From birth, Yakumo Kurama was extraordinary. She had a body as weak as Gekkou Gale, and a blood limit that had disappeared from her family for many years. Because she couldn’t adapt to school life, Yakumo Kurama began to take private lessons at home. Her family teacher was Kurenai Yuhi, the number one illusionist in Konoha at the time.

But as she grew older, her bloodline limit began to get out of control. Finally, one day, she burned down her home without realizing it, and burned her parents to death.

The memory ended here, Naruto shrugged, feeling that this was also a ruthless person. But do you want to say, how much sympathy does Naruto have for her? Not really. To be honest, in the early plots of Naruto, whether it was Haku or Sasuke. None of these people who had bloodline limits had a miserable life story.

Once you have a bloodline limit, you can just expect both your parents to die.

“Oh?”

Standing on the electric pole, Naruto noticed Kakashi carrying a lot of bags on the street. Seeing this, Naruto jumped down and greeted Kakashi.

“Kakashi-nii, what are you doing here?”

“Oh, it’s Naruto.”

Carrying the package, Kakashi greeted Naruto with full energy. Obviously, he was the Kakashi of this world.

“I’m purchasing supplies. Next, there is a very time-consuming task that I need to prepare for.”

Naruto was curious: “What mission?”

“Go to the Snow Country to protect the princess.”

Hearing this, Naruto felt a little stunned for a moment.

“The Snow Country? That’s… pretty far away, right?”

“It’s very far. Once I leave this time, I may not come back in a short time.”

After that, Kakashi tapped his chin.

“Let me think about what else I haven’t bought.”

Seeing his concentration, Naruto put his head in his hands and casually said, “Are you the only one on this mission? Brother Kakashi, I heard that the scenery in the Snow Country is very nice.”

“Um!”

Kakashi’s eyes widened instantly when he heard Naruto’s words.

“Yeah, you’re right. This mission is a rare travel opportunity… Well, let’s call Kai along. He really hasn’t been very motivated lately.”

After that, Kakashi disappeared from Naruto’s sight with his bags on his back, leaving him alone to sigh.

“As expected, I’m still not used to this energetic Kakashi-sensei. Well, those guys from the Snow Country are lucky. Kakashi and Might Guy, with this lineup, I don’t know how we can lose.”

As for Gai, you always feel safe when you go on a mission with him. If your teacher is Asuma, you will still worry that he will become a laoma; but if your teacher is Might Guy, you will just want to say: call Madara over.

Now that he was on the street, Naruto put his hands behind his head and decided to take a stroll. Konoha had developed quite well after the war, and it was changing every day. Look, the grilled squid restaurant he saw in the snack street a while ago had opened a new store after a holiday.

It seems that the profit of this grilled squid is quite high. In the original work, Naruto ate Ichiraku Ramen for 20 years before he turned it into a chain store. As expected, Uncle Ichiraku is too conscientious. However, if Uncle Ichiraku was not so conscientious, he would not have so many loyal customers, right?

Who can tell whether everything in the world is a blessing or a curse?

“Oh, that figure is…”

In the Teppanyaki Squid shop, Naruto saw a figure with certain attributes.

“Yeah, it’s you again.”

Seeing Naruto, Anko waved.

“Come here, sister will treat you to something to eat.”

Hearing this, Naruto quickly trotted over to Red Bean. He noticed the poster on the wall next to Red Bean.

“Opening celebration….couples’ double meals are half price! Hey, hey, hey, sister Hongdou, you are not…”

Hongdou smiled proudly, and it was obvious that what she was going to do was exactly what Naruto wanted.

“What’s the matter? Okay, stop talking nonsense. I bought it for you and it’s not like I won’t give it to you.”

“Sister, I’m still young, you are committing a crime.”

“Okay, stop talking nonsense.”

In the end, Hongdou took Naruto to buy a half-price couple meal. In fact, the store’s requirements were not strict, and many people like Naruto and Hongdou, who were obviously not a couple, could also buy a half-price couple meal.

While eating the squid skewers that he didn’t pay for, Naruto asked curiously, “Sister Red Bean, do you like this?”

“Of course! I like meat and I like salty food.”

“Ah, what about the meatballs? What about the red bean soup? What about the dessert?”

“I don’t like any of them. Who would like food that has the same name as themselves?”

Hearing what Red Bean said, Naruto scratched his head. He finally knew the difference between the Red Bean in this world and the Red Bean in the original world. The Red Bean in the original world liked meatball skewers and sweets very much. But the Red Bean in this world had a completely different taste.

Time passed quietly, and in the blink of an eye, a week had passed since Kurama Yakumo transferred to Naruto’s class. During this week, Yakumo was quite withdrawn. She was a repeater, two years older than the students in Naruto’s class, and there was an age difference between them. In addition, her personality was not very sociable.

Rather than communicating with her classmates, she would rather take out a pencil and draw a sketch in her free time.

Shisui watched all of this silently. His evaluation of Yakumo was: “Another victim of bloodline limit.”

He had seen such examples many times in the Uchiha clan. If Yakumo had not awakened the Kurama clan’s bloodline limit, she could have lived an ordinary and happy life.

The Kurama family has been in decline for many years. Her parents do not have the talent of ninjas and are engaged in ordinary professions. Her weak body does not prevent her from becoming a painter.

Unfortunately, after she awakened her bloodline, everything was different. All the living members of the Kurama family became a burden to her. The family had been in decline for too long, and they were eager to train a strong ninja again.

Why did Shisui become friends with Itachi? There is a big age gap between the two. The reason why they can become friends is simple, both of them have strong eyes.

For the Uchiha clan, the age gap is nothing compared to the difference in pupil power. Shisui is of course broad-minded enough to ignore the difference in strength and make friends with other clan members, but he cannot control the thoughts of other clan members.

Can you control the jealousy of your peers? Can you avoid being belittled by others when they are with you? When Lu Xun returned home, Runtu called him “master” without saying anything. Did Lu Xun not want to be friends with him?

Eyes are the foundation of the Uchiha clan’s strength, but they are also the shackles around the necks of every clan member.

“Hahahahahahahaha.”

The laughter of the students interrupted Shisui’s meditation. He looked up and found that it was Naruto who was performing the transformation. The students were already very familiar with the transformation technique to change into the appearance of other teachers. Today, Iruka’s teaching content was to use the transformation technique to change into the appearance of animals.

Unfortunately, Naruto was called to the podium by Iruka to demonstrate. In front of all the students, Naruto turned into a monkey with a scar on his nose, which made the students laugh.

Last time, although Naruto turned into Iruka with a big nose, most of the students still respected Teacher Shisui, so they kept their laughter to themselves. This time, Naruto turned into a monkey with a scar on his nose, and he was obviously teasing Teacher Iruka.

The students were not polite to the gentle teacher Iruka, and laughed as much as they wanted. Kiba and Shikamaru, who were a few arrogant ones, had already started to give Naruto a nickname of “monkey”.

“Hey~”

Iruka held his forehead and shook his head helplessly. He really loved and hated Naruto. He liked his intelligence and ability to liven up the classroom atmosphere; but at the same time, he was not afraid of the teacher at all and also made demands on Iruka’s teaching ability.

Incompetent teachers cannot control students who are too smart.
