(Forget your brain, being happy is the most important thing)
(No conspiracy theories, more female protagonists, more daily life)
Dusk time.
The sun had begun to approach the horizon, but the slight chilly wind was still as sharp as a knife, cutting people's faces and causing pain.
After last night's heavy snow, the whole village was already covered in thick silver.
Snowflakes were flying in the sky, and it was the season of the white album again.
Under the sunset.
"Aoyama, I... I like you!"
On the nearly 100-meter-high Hokage Rock, two small figures were standing, overlooking the snowy scenery of Konoha.
There are no buildings in Konoha Village taller than Hokage Rock, so from this location, you can have a panoramic view of the snowy scenery of the entire village.
Such scenery is bound to make people feel relaxed and happy.
It was in such an environment that the girl's clear and pleasant voice reached the boy's ears.
Although he had faced this situation many times, Aoyama Shiro still felt dazed.
Is this so outrageous? He's only six years old, and he's already thinking about these things.
Once again, he witnessed the explosion of the Hokage world.
Aoyama Shiro withdrew his gaze from the snowy scenery of Konoha's village and turned to look at the girl next to him, who was half a year older than him but slightly shorter than him.
Her black hair was tied into two cute buns. She looked plump because of her chubby face and the thick red cotton-padded jacket she wore.
Her cheeks were slightly flushed, perhaps because she was too shy about what she had just said, or because of the sunset.
Day by day
Aoyama Shiro felt that if he knew one day that his daughter had confessed her love to another boy at the age of six, he would definitely treat that boy to a meal of stir-fried pork with bamboo shoots.
You also need to coat the bamboo shoots with chili powder, which will make you feel better.
But now he is the one being confessed to, so just pretend he never said it.
Faced with the girl's immature yet skilled confession, Aoyama Shiro didn't even think twice, thinking that it was the same as before, and subconsciously spoke.
But the other person covered his mouth with her hand, and her face became even redder, and she spoke shyly.
"This time, it's not a game..."
Looking at the boy's clear and pure eyes, Tenten released her hand that was covering his mouth.
Then she looked away, her eyes wandering to other places, her hands clasped together in front of her chest, obviously very nervous.
"This..."
Now it was Aoyama Shiro's turn to not know how to answer. How could such a good deal be contaminated by emotions?
It's not that he doesn't like Tenten, but he's mainly afraid that if he agrees, he'll hear the sound of the kettle boiling when he gets home one day.
It's better to just muddle through for now.
"How about we play house?"
"How about I give you today's guidance for free..."
Aoyama Shiro couldn't continue speaking before he finished his words because Tenten was already staring at him with her eyes wide open.
Her breathing became more rapid, a number sign appeared on her forehead, her cheeks bulged slightly, and her whole face became rounder.
"You didn't agree to me because you like Ino more?"
"Or little Sakura?"
Aoyama Shiro was a bit overwhelmed. He was only five years old and thought he was just going to be trained, but he didn't expect to play in a high-end game right away. He had already faced the first Shura field in his life.
Isn't it fun when everyone plays together?
"Who do you like better?"
Tenten couldn't help seeing Aoyama Shiro remained silent.
Gulp—
Aoyama Shiro couldn't help swallowing. Between the three little girls, he decisively chose -
"I prefer money!"
...
The atmosphere was somewhat silent.
"You b*****d!"
In the end, Tenten gritted her teeth and stepped hard on Aoyama Shiro's instep.
"Hiss!"
Aoyama Shiro immediately took a breath of cold air.
"Snort!"
"You are so greedy for money, just spend your life with money!"
Tenten took out an explosive talisman from her arms, threw it directly at Aoyama Shiro's face, and then ran away angrily.
Looking at Tenten's leaving back, Aoyama Shiro could only sigh inwardly.
Children in the ninja world are precocious.
Although Tenten looked very angry now, Aoyama Shiro still chose not to chase her. Until he could give an answer, he would just leave it like this for now.
When they see each other tomorrow, the anger will probably have subsided. Although they are precocious, they are still children after all, and there is usually no overnight grudge between them.
Aoyama Shiro picked up the detonating tag that fell on the ground. He was a little scared just now. If Tenten was really angry, this thing could really cost him his life.
However, detonating talismans are not cheap, one costs two thousand ryō.
This can be considered as his reward. After all, the relationship between the two at the beginning was just about mutual benefit.
Aoyama Shiro has often taught the other party the art of shuriken throwing over the past year, and part of this money is considered tuition.
And Aoyama Shiro is also very, very short of money now.
The reason why he was short of money was not because his family was poor. Although he had no parents, he had an uncle who was an Elite Jōnin, so he had no worries about food and clothing.
It was mainly because of his terrible system that suddenly awakened.
After Tenten's figure completely disappeared, Aoyama Shiro also opened the panel of his own system.
[Ninja Card Drawing System lv1] (Can be upgraded for 35,000,000 ryō)
Well, one Asuma can be upgraded.
[Host can draw cards by recharging items of corresponding value and obtain the desired abilities.]
[Current number of draws: 89]
[Each card draw requires 1000 ryō. If you draw 100 times, you will get an SR card. If you draw 300 times, you will get an SSR card. If you draw 1000 times, you will get an UR card.]
[There are 21 times left until the next SR, 211 times left until the next SSR, and 911 times left until the next UR]
[Currently extracted records:
SR: Shuriken Throwing Advanced Techniques
R: Small amount of Chakra × 6; Shuriken × 48; Kunai × 30; Detonating Talisman × 4]
Exploding Talisman and a small amount of Chakra are guaranteed to appear once every ten draws.
However, this small amount of Chakra is still quite useful. He is only five years old now, and the Chakra in his body is almost the same as that of an ordinary Genin.
If he draws hundreds of thousands of times, he will be a human-shaped tailed beast.
But the explosion rate of this card draw is really touching.
Apart from the SR that came out of the ten-draw bonus when the system was turned on, there has been no more, so I have to rely on the guaranteed minimum.
However, this shuriken throwing technique is a very cost-effective ability and is very useful in the early stages.
It also brought him a stable source of income, and he is now Tenten's shuriken teacher.
Tutors and schoolgirls and stuff like that.
It has a very island flavor, which can be regarded as adapting to local customs.
