She remembered that Mikoto used to help Kiyoshi with many things in his life.
After asking Honglian where Mikoto's house was, Yuhi Kurenai set off on her journey to Mikoto's house.
"Kiyoshi, that guy, went to the Jonin team leader so early."
Sarutobi Asuma felt that Kiyoshi had become much more proactive, far more so than when Minazuki-sensei was around.
"Kiyoshi is really working hard."
Kurenai Yuhi had already imagined Kiyoshi discussing mission details with Jonin Mikoto in order to improve the mission's success rate.
"Speaking of which, Hong, don't you like illusions?"
Sarutobi Asuma turned his head and smiled.
He recalled moments when he lacked emotional intelligence.
Kurenai's desire to challenge Kiyoshi, a member of the Uchiha clan, using genjutsu was clearly motivated by a desire to prove that the Yuhi clan was capable as well.
He was also advising Kurenai not to argue with the Uchiha clan about this.
This isn't a question of right or wrong, it's a question of attitude and respect.
To this day, Sarutobi Asuma's emotional intelligence has improved considerably.
"Correct."
Kurenai Yuhi nodded. Now that she was a ninja specializing in illusion techniques, she was determined to stick to her path to the end.
"I recently learned the 'Fox Mind Technique,' would you like me to teach you?"
Sarutobi Asuma said confidently.
He learned this from the Sarutobi clan's ninjutsu library.
"Thank you, Asuma, you're such a kind person. But Kiyoshi taught me a lot of illusion techniques, I'll learn those first."
Kurenai Yuhi slowly shook her head.
Kiyoshi never stopped researching genjutsu, and the Uchiha clan possessed a large number of these techniques.
After all, the Uchiha clan is most famous for its fire-style techniques and genjutsu. Although the Sarutobi clan is also a large clan, only its fire-style techniques are well-known, and it lags far behind in other areas.
Even Hiruzen Sarutobi, who is known as the strongest Hokage, preferred to use Five Elements Ninjutsu and combination Ninjutsu rather than Genjutsu, such as "Five Elements: Great Combo Bullet Technique" and "Lightning Water Dragon Bullet".
His diverse and elaborate ninjutsu earned Hiruzen Sarutobi the title of "Ninja Doctor".
Kurenai's words immediately choked Sarutobi Asuma, preventing him from saying anything more.
No, Kiyoshi has explored every possible path, leaving no way out. How else can he go?
Sarutobi Asuma's mood soared, and he followed Kurenai Yuhi dejectedly.
Bang bang.
More than ten minutes later.
Kurenai raised her little fist and knocked on the door.
"Oh dear, here I am."
A gentle voice came from inside the house, suggesting that the owner was a virtuous woman.
Not long after the sound came out, the door creaked open.
What came into view was Mikoto wearing a white apron, which still had many white flour marks on it, as if she was kneading dough.
Behind her was a burly man, also wearing a white apron, holding a bowl and stirring.
At first glance, the two look like a warm and loving family.
Chapter 261 Kurenai Yuhi is Jealous, Mikoto and Seiji's Night Watch
Sarutobi Asuma was surprised to find that the Uchiha clan had such a tender side, which changed his preconceived notions about the Uchiha as evil and arrogant.
Kurenai Yuhi found the scene inexplicably jarring.
"Kiyoshi and I are busy making lunchboxes for the road. We're leaving soon, so you can come in first."
Mikoto pushed the door open, then turned and walked towards Kiyoshi.
"Old woman..."
Under the glow of the setting sun, her pretty face was tinged with shadow.
"Ah, what?"
Sarutobi Asuma didn't hear clearly.
Did Hong just say something?
I said... let's go in.
Kurenai Yuhi smiled, as if nothing had happened, and followed them inside.
Sarutobi Asuma responded with an "oh".
The red lips moved so little that Sarutobi Asuma could only make out three syllables, and assumed that was it, so he naturally took off his shoes and went inside.
"Hong, isn't there still some time before the agreed time?"
Kiyoshi asked, stirring the dough in his hands.
He and Mikoto were able to make bento boxes at this time because there was still more than an hour before they were to depart.
This is enough time for them to finish making the bento boxes and then head over.
"...I wanted to come find you as soon as possible."
Kurenai pursed her lips, her eyelashes trembling slightly.
Looking over, Qing Si saw Xi Ri Hong leaning against the wall, taking off her shoes.
The Land of Rain experiences rain year-round, and its temperature is much lower than that of the Land of Fire.
Kurenai Yuhi wore warm trousers, which, perhaps because they were tight-fitting, accentuated the roundness of her thighs and the strength of her calves, exuding a youthful aura.
Kiyoshi could sense a hint of grievance in Kurenai's tone.
He chuckled softly, stepped forward, ruffled her curly black hair, and said:
"Actually, I'm making you a bento box."
"Make it for me?"
Kurenai Yuhi raised her red eyes in surprise.
“I don’t mind eating dry rations all the time, but it will affect Hong’s health.”
Qingsi spoke.
Whether it's military rations or marching rations, they can only be eaten for a short period of time.
Not everyone has such a good physique as him.
In fact, Kiyoshi, who could eat soldier's rations like candy, was a rare anomaly.
"Taste it."
Kiyoshi pointed to the tempura that had already been portioned out on the table.
He combined some techniques from his previous life to create a unique flavor.
Then Kiyoshi took the dough and went into the kitchen to help Mikoto cook.
Kurenai stared blankly at Seiji's retreating figure, picked up a piece and tasted it; it was much tastier than she had expected.
"I'll try it too."
Sarutobi Asuma wasn't too particular; he grabbed a few pieces from a bowl and stuffed them into his stomach.
My eyes lit up. Although Kiyoshi always seemed pretentious, his cooking skills were truly impressive.
"You have mastered the entry: [God of Cookery (Blue)]".
[Entry: God of Cookery (Blue)]
[Requirement achieved: Through years of cooking, your culinary skills have reached a certain level of qualitative improvement.]
【Progress: (Completed).】
[Effect: Your cooking skills have greatly improved; any food you prepare will taste 40% better than before.]
【Note: You can continue to advance later. 】
Kiyoshi listened to the prompts on the entry panel, closed it, and continued to help Mikoto.
He had received the entry about cooking skills a long time ago.
However, the quality is only white.
You can gain skill points by practicing swordsmanship and illusion techniques, and you can also gain them by constantly cooking.
Not to mention that Kiyoshi also possesses attributes like muscle memory, so even without activating his Sharingan, cooking has become an instinct.
An hour later, Mikoto and Kiyoshi finished preparing the bento boxes for the past few days.
Sarutobi Asuma even shamelessly asked for a serving.
Kiyoshi picked out one of his own creations and gave it to Sarutobi Asuma.
After making some preparations, the group headed to the area below the Hokage Building.
"You must be the ninjas who took on this mission. As expected, you are all very talented."
The speaker wore a brown hat, had a white beard, and his white and black hair was intertwined, appearing gray from a distance.
"Hello, I am the Jonin leading this team, Uchiha Mikoto."
Mikoto parted her lips slightly and said.
"So it's the famous Uchiha clan in the ninja world. This mission should go smoothly."
Shennong smiled and patted his disciple's head.
Kiyoshi quietly observed Shennong's apprentice from behind Mikoto.
Shennong was very tall and carried a cloth bag full of medical tools on his back.
As for his disciple, Kiyoshi discovered that it was not the red-haired girl, Amatsu.
He was just an ordinary boy.
Kiyoshi realized that the timeline hadn't arrived yet.
Yu Liu is likely Shennong's future disciple; she is a few years younger than Naruto.
“This is my disciple, Makado.”
"Hello."
Makado greeted the group with confidence, his eyes lighting up as he looked at the beautiful Kurenai and Mikoto.
The group then began walking out of the village.
Because Shennong was not a ninja on the surface, but a doctor, and his disciples were only apprentices.
Therefore, the travel speed was much slower.
Throughout the journey, Makado kept talking.
Mikoto was wearing a ninja vest and had her black hair tied in a single ponytail, giving her a smart and capable look.
Despite the gentleness in his eyes, the overwhelming coldness made Makado dare not approach.
Ninjas have blood on their hands.
Even Mikoto is the same.
So Macado started talking to Kurenai Yuhi along the way.
Kurenai found this guy a bit annoying and kept hiding behind Kiyoshi.
Sarutobi Asuma was shocked to see this and decided to forget about Kiyoshi.
Who do you think you are, to dare to talk to Kurenai Yuhi?
