Chapter 64 Mizuki: Difficult to stretch
The spices they carried removed the wild boar's fishy smell, and the sizzling oil danced on the flames, releasing a delightful aroma.
"It doesn't taste as good as home cooking."
Naruto took a bite of meat and complained.
...
Sasuke's forehead creased with a few more black lines.
"What are their conditions, and what are ours? Don't you, blondie, have any idea?"
Their beef is top-quality farmed beef, combined with spices cultivated by the Nara clan, and cooked by a skilled chef.
Our ingredients are wild boars running freely in the wild, along with unknown spices you dug out from some unknown place, and the skills of a six-year-old child.
Just think about it and you'll know it's impossible to compare, right?
In fact, looking at this grade level, Naruto's group is definitely a world apart in terms of skill level.
A wooden shed for shade, a fire lit early in the morning, a large pile of firewood, and that huge wild boar.
"Really? You took care of that wild boar?"
Ya rubbed his eyes, staring incredulously at Second Boar's increasingly hot body, his voice trembling slightly.
Naruto wiped the grease off his lips with water and nodded.
"Sasuke solved it."
"In terms of the Wild Boar Special Attack, I, Naruto, would like to call Sasuke... mmm mmm."
Sasuke covered Naruto's mouth and then stuffed the cooked meat into Naruto's mouth.
"If there's nothing else, go find your prey."
Sasuke waved to Kiba.
"We can use fire freely here."
After thinking about it, Sasuke felt that his words had been a bit cold, so he added a sentence.
Kiba looked at Naruto, whose mouth was stuffed, and Sasuke, who had a strange smile on his face, and silently took a step back.
"Okay, I'll go prepare the food first."
Because it's near a stream, there are quite a few fish in the spring.
Most groups chose to go fishing and then try their luck in the forest, hoping to find some fruit, or even some wild game like rabbits or bird eggs.
However, one member of the group got his butt stolen by a wild boar and is currently lying at Teacher Mizuki's place.
Shuimu: Listen to me, thank you for bringing chrysanthemums.
That's right, the wild boar that caused the accident and fled the scene was Second Boar's older brother, Big Boar.
After its younger brother's death, it was filled with grief and made up its mind to avenge Second Boar.
While crouching in the grass, it saw several children dressed similarly to the little boy who had killed it before.
The important thing is that their aura is very weak!
They can't even jump around in the trees; they don't look like monkeys at all.
However, the weapons they possessed made Big Boar very wary, so it waited for the perfect opportunity.
The victim requested to use the restroom because of a minor stomach problem.
He then went to a more secluded corner, while his teammates kept watch for him.
The result was obvious: since there are few effective means of detecting surrounding information at this stage, the pig secretly crept up behind the victim.
They delivered a fatal blow when the person was at their most vulnerable.
The chrysanthemums have faded, the ground is covered in yellow, and your smile has turned pale.
His homeroom teacher, Mizuki, unsurprisingly took on the task of looking after him.
Mizuki: Ugh~ It stinks.
Big Boar: Keep sneaking! We can't let Second Boar's grudge go so easily!
The scene returns to the present camp.
Hinata, in a manner that was both elegant and swift, boastfully tossed the meat into her mouth.
As if the speed had doubled, the prepared roasted meat disappeared in a flash.
Hmm, it's a bit greasy, I'm probably about half full.
About ten minutes later, Hinata finished the battle.
Iruka, who had been watching them closely, kept twitching his lips.
It seemed that Hinata hadn't eaten enough ramen when they were eating earlier.
Mizuki poked Iruka in the waist, holding a grilled fish in her hand.
"The fish is ready, you can eat it now."
Iruka snapped out of his thoughts, looked at the sizzling, oily grilled fish, and couldn't help but swallow hard.
Shizuko-sensei's cooking skills are excellent, as evidenced by the time she delivered a bento box to Iruka.
"Okay, thanks."
With a slight blush on his cheeks, Iruka took the grilled fish and began to eat.
The juices from the fish burst in my mouth, and the spices that Mizuki brought unexpectedly neutralized the fishy smell while amplifying the umami flavor.
"Is it delicious?"
Mizuk watched with a smile as Iruka was completely captivated by the grilled fish.
Indeed, the way to a man's heart is through his stomach!
Hashirama nodded, indicating his strong agreement.
At this moment, Mizuki looked at the unfortunate guy in front of him who smelled terrible and felt a little overwhelmed, but he still took off his pants and fetched a bucket of water from the stream to wash him.
During that time, Mizuki saw Iruka eating grilled fish.
ᕙ༼ ͝°益° ༽ᕗ
Oh my god, why am I so unlucky?!
Why? Why?!
My mind was screaming, but I still had to deal with this poor student.
Big Boar: Feel the pain, think about the pain, accept the pain, understand the pain!
Those who don't know pain can't understand the pain I feel for losing my little brother!
Wild boar charge!!!
"Um, Sasuke-kun, may I borrow a light?"
Sakura walked over shyly and asked Sasuke, who was sitting in front of the fire roasting meat.
Sasuke nodded, without turning to look at Sakura.
Borrowing a light is no big deal.
It's not like it's the first time; just grab a stick or something to catch it.
He still needed to grill meat; Hinata and Naruto had eaten their fill, but he hadn't eaten yet.
"Ouch."
A hint of disappointment flashed in Sakura's eyes, then she used the branch she had brought to carry the embers back to the base of the tree where she was.
Tsk, useless Sakura, she got such a good opportunity from me.
A hint of helplessness flashed in Ino's eyes. Even with her best friend given a chance, she was useless.
Unlike the girls who were only interested in taking the lighter, Choji and his friends brought something nice.
"Clang clang clang!"
Choji brought over the snake soup they had made.
The snake was found in the forest near Mizuki-sensei's place, and Choji subdued it with a single flesh-ball attack.
Then, using the fire borrowed from Naruto, they cooked snake soup.
Orochimaru: Strange, why is one of my communication snakes in Konoha missing?
"Wow, as expected of Choji, he can even make snake soup."
Naruto looked at the four bowls of snake soup that Choji handed him in surprise and praised them.
"Hehehe, it's not that amazing."
Choji scratched his head. When it comes to food, the Akimichi clan are definitely an expert.
As for why there are four bowls...
Hinata: ⁄(⁄ ⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄ ⁄)⁄
"Hey, fruit."
Naruto has as many fruits as he has ideas.
And they are all wonderful.
"OK."
Choji happily led Shikamaru back home, each carrying a few fruits.
Shikamaru: This is troublesome, but the taste is not bad, so I'll reluctantly go.
