Chapter 20
[If we reach 2000PS I will do a 2 Chapter per day schedule on this fic!!]
Coming by often to see TenTen, brushing up on his presence—once TenTen graduated, it'd be perfectly natural to go looking for Guy's team. Wouldn't that be the chance to meet Guy?
But... there were still quite a few years before TenTen graduated. He had to wait.
If only he could bump into Guy someday—then he could shamelessly walk up and make friends, casually ask a few things about taijutsu, and once they got close enough, beg to learn Hachimon Tonkō.
The key problem was... he just couldn't bump into him!
Konoha might be called a village, but it was actually huge. How could you just randomly run into someone?
Sure, he could try asking around, but for a kid to suddenly inquire about a jōnin he didn't know—anyone would find that suspicious. These days, even children could be spies.
All in all, TenTen was his most stable route. He had to hold onto it tight.
Plus, just like TenTen said, if she came up with some good ninja tool designs, she could bring them to sell. Wouldn't that take care of living expenses?
Two birds with one stone, right?
TenTen blushed a little at those words, nodding instinctively. "Mm, we're friends now. You can come find me if you want."
Natsuki smiled with satisfaction and said his goodbye, "Then I'll head home for now. See you!"
