Gentle sunshine shines in from the window. In the restaurant, Nara Shikamaru, Nara Shikaku and Nara Yoshino's family are eating lunch. They have four dishes and one soup, two meat and two vegetables, plus a grilled fish for each person. It is simple and warm.
From time to time, Nara Yoshino would pick up food for Shikamaru who was hunched over his meal, with a hint of doting and pride in his eyes.
It is probably the wish of every parent to hope that their child will become a dragon. Being born in the Nara clan, especially as the son of Nara Shikaku, who is well-known in the clan and even in Konoha Village, if you don't want to live in the strange eyes of others, you have to become a ninja.
There is a way out, and from this, Shikamaru becomes a better and better ninja, which is Nara Yoshino's greatest wish.
This is nothing but vanity, just because Shikamaru can achieve a higher status when he has better performance and strength. As a ninja, being mediocre, showing no performance or even never showing up does not mean that he will be safe. If a war occurs, this
A kind of useless ninja can only be used as cannon fodder. In contrast, although powerful ninjas often shoulder heavy responsibilities, they are also well protected by the Ninja Village because they have a more important role.
Even so, Nara Shikamaru's performance in the Chunin Exam could not help but make Nara Yoshino feel proud and proud.
Although only one day has passed since the preliminaries for the Chuunin Examination, the specific content of the exam has spread throughout the Konoha Village. Shikamaru, as the Nara boy who defeated Hyuga Neji, the Nara clan boy known as the number one genius of the Hyuga family, is even more popular among the villagers.
Hot discussion.
In particular, many Konoha ninjas obtained detailed information about the battle between Shikamaru and Hyuga Neji in the preliminaries. Their amazing scheming and tactical wisdom revealed at such a young age could not help but impress the Konoha ninjas.
The question now is not focused on whether Shikamaru can become a chuunin, but where can Shikamaru go?
To be more precise, people are interested in the duties assigned to Shikamaru after he becomes a chuunin.
Unlike genin, they can only make a living by taking on tasks under the leadership of the guidance jounin. After becoming a chuunin, they have enough qualifications to take over the positions in the ninja village. Especially the newcomers who have just become chunin will inevitably join a
The department gave him some time to adapt to his status as a chuunin.
The Intelligence Department, the Medical Department, the Police Department, the Education Department, the Administration Department... and even the ANBU... these departments are also divided into teams with different responsibilities. It can be said that a "small" Konoha Village
, the complexity of the military and administrative institutions is not inferior to that of the entire Fire Nation, and because the ruling area is small, the staff are also extremely high-quality ninjas, and their work ability is incomparable to that of any country's ruling institutions.
The village is efficient and fast.
Nara Shikamaru is a young ninja who is already well-known in the village. It will indeed make people curious as to what department the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen and the administrative department will assign him to.
Of course, compared to many Konoha villagers who have even promoted Shikamaru himself to chuunin "by default", Shikamaru himself does not dare to be careless at all. His opponent is Gaara, who became the Kazekage at the age of sixteen.
Not to mention that the word caution has been engraved deep into his heart as a Jinchuriki. Even with this in mind, he will not underestimate his opponents.
After the family of three had lunch, Nara Yoshino got up and put away the dishes, kicked Nara Shikaku and Nara Shikamaru and his son out of the kitchen, and drove them into the living room.
Compared with Nara Shikaku's laziness, Nara Yoshino is much neater and more resolute. Nara Shikaku is very commanding when making battle plans, but when faced with daily trivial matters, he always looks impatient and lazy.
In fact, it is his "great wisdom" - few people like to have a shrewd person around them.
Rather than being impatient, it is better to say that it is disdain and not wanting to put away this lazy look in normal times. Compared with wisdom, Nara Shikaku's boldness and the friendship between the three of Ino Shikacho are even more attracted by people in the Konoha Village.
Familiar.
There are many smart people in this world, but not all smart people are willing to play dumb. Shikamaru knows this, even though Nara Shikaku rarely acts like a father, and rarely maintains the fierce style of a ninja in front of him.
, Shikamaru still maintained enough respect for him.
Nara Shikaku has a smart mind that far exceeds that of ordinary people, but he does not have the physical fitness to match it. Although Shikamaru himself does not agree with Nara Shikaku's overly reserved character, he also understands that to some extent, this is also the case for Nara Shikaku.
This is the best way for people like Jiu to get ahead.
"Are you making any preparations in this month?" Nara Shikaku sat down on the sofa, stretched exaggeratedly, and greeted Shikamaru to come to him with a satisfied expression, and then asked: "Yes
What do you need my help with?"
After hearing this, Shikamaru sat on the sofa next to Nara Shikamaru, thought about it, and told Nara Shikaku about Gaara's situation: "My opponent is the ninja of Sunagakure Village who once defeated Genin Rock Lee in the preliminary round.
The opponent has a strong ability to control the sand for defense. I am going to ask Rock Lee or Senior Akai who are good at high-speed physical skills to see what they can teach me. In this way, combined with my Rasengan, I will have a bigger attack.
Odds of winning.”
Shikamaru knew that Nara Shikaku and Akai didn't have much of a relationship and might not be able to help, so he didn't ask for help.
After hearing Shikamaru's words, Nara Shikaku's eyes flashed and fell on his calm face. After a moment of silence, I don't know if it was Shikamaru's illusion. Nara Shikaku's voice was slightly hoarse: "You can pay attention to your opponent.
This is a good point, ninjas should not despise any enemy."
Nara Shikaku was indeed a little worried that Shikamaru would underestimate the enemy because of the praise from the village, but now seeing the expression of this son who had hardly worried about him, he already knew that his worries were unnecessary. For Shikamaru
For him, it doesn't matter whether the enemy is weak or strong, because he has already understood that this formal selection is not only to defeat the opponent, but also a "publicity exhibition". The opponent's strength only accounts for a small part of the factor, and the more important factor is
What matters is how you promote and present yourself in battle.
"What did Asuma say?" Nara Shikaku asked Shikamaru casually: "Will he train you?"
"Both Choji and Ino passed the preliminaries," Shikamaru recalled Asuma's instructions when Team 10 gathered earlier, and explained to Nara Shikaku: "Choji was trained by Uncle Choza, but Haiichi
It seems that my uncle has some work matters and cannot guide Ino's practice, so he entrusted Asuma-sensei to provide guidance for a period of time."
When Nara Shikaku heard that Yamanaka Kaiichi even gave up instructing his daughter who had passed the pre-selection to do work, doubts flashed across his face.
