After a while of discussion at the dumpling shop, Obito and the others still couldn't come up with a gift for the five of them, so they decided to ask other teachers in the school and Mu Yue's friends before making a decision.
After the breakup, Obito went home for dinner, then returned to the streets of the main city.
In fact, before this party, Obito had been thinking about giving Mu Yue something, so he already had an idea of the gift he would give to Mu Yue.
Although Obito didn't know much about calligraphy, he would ask. By asking the bookstore owner, he learned that calligraphy pens, ink, paper and inkstone all require a lot of attention.
Originally, he wanted to make a brush by himself and give it to Mu Yue, just like Mu Yue made ninja tools. However, he later found out that making a brush was too difficult and he was not cut out for it, so he temporarily gave up the idea.
He chose to make an inkstone, which is relatively simple.
In Obito's view, an ordinary inkstone is just a stone with a hole dug in it, and a more complicated one is something carved on the stone, which he believes he can do.
After asking many old men, Obito finally got three stones for making inkstones from an old man who liked calligraphy.
Obito was delighted and gave the money to the old man. Then he went to the bookstore to buy an inkstone and began to think about how to make an inkstone at home.
Obito didn't start immediately because he hadn't even thought about the appearance of the inkstone.
Obito took out a piece of white paper and a pen, wanting to draw the pattern he wanted first.
Twenty minutes later, Obito looked at the not-quite-round circle inside the rectangle and a bunch of black lines next to it, and his expression was a little distressed.
The idea is good, but he can't draw.
Obito thought the dragon-patterned kunai that Mu Yue gave him was very cool, and he also wanted to make a similar dragon on the inkstone, but let alone carving it, Obito didn't even know what he was drawing on the paper.
"Damn it, drawing is so difficult. It feels harder than ninjutsu." Obito sighed and lay down on the seat.
"Should I ask Xiaolin or Kakashi for help?" Two figures subconsciously appeared in Obito's mind.
Nohara Rin had given him paintings as birthday gifts twice, and he felt that Nohara Rin was quite good at painting.
As for Kakashi, although he had never seen Kakashi draw, Obito had an inexplicable confidence that Kakashi must be able to draw, and his level was not low.
"No, how can I ask other people for help with the gift I want to deliver?" Obito shook his head and rejected the idea.
As a personal gift for Mu Yue, Obito still wants to complete it alone as much as possible. If the design is drawn by someone else, it will not be considered a gift from him alone.
At this time, Obito suddenly had an idea to use the Shadow Clone Technique to quickly increase his painting experience.
Memories will flow back after contact with the Shadow Clone Technique. If he creates a few shadow clones to practice with him, maybe he will be in time.
"If we manage the timing of our shadow clones well, we shouldn't be too tired." The more Obito thought about it, the more he thought this was a good idea.
He couldn't stand the fatigue of practicing with shadow clones, so it shouldn't be a big problem to just paint for a while.
Of course, Obito knew that his idea still had a fatal problem, that is, the shadow clones would not necessarily do things according to his ideas. During battles, the shadow clones could, of course, execute various tactics, but when it came to daily life, if he asked the shadow clones to do questions, the shadow clones would fight with him.
"Shadow Clone Technique!" Obito formed a seal and created two shadow clones.
Now that there is a solution, we have to try it anyway.
Just when Obito was about to persuade the Shadow Clone to practice painting, something Obito didn't expect happened.
I saw one of the shadow clones walk to the table, pick up a pen and start drawing, while the other shadow clone found paper and pen and started drawing on the floor.
"What are you still doing standing there? Why don't you hurry up and practice?" The shadow clone on the floor said to Obito's real body with a dissatisfied look on his face.
Obito was dumbfounded and couldn't help but ask: "Why didn't you guys slack off this time and take the initiative?"
He was mentally prepared for his shadow clones to give up and for him to fight alone, but the two shadow clones turned out to be more self-aware than ever before.
The shadow clone sitting on the chair glanced at Obito and said, "Mr. Mu Yue is such a good person, of course we should do our best to give him the best gift."
"Instead of asking this, you might as well hurry up. There's only a week left until the graduation exam. Time isn't much." Obito, who was sitting on the floor, continued to urge.
This was the first time that he was urged to act by his own shadow clone. With this novel feeling, Obito quickly found paper and pen and started drawing.
Obito vaguely guessed the reason for the change in the Shadow Clone, which might be caused by his own inner thoughts.
He was very reluctant to do the exercises. If it wasn't assigned by Mu Yue, he wouldn't want to complete it at all. But this time of painting was different. This time he wanted to give Mu Yue a better gift. At this moment, he had no resistance to painting at all.
That's why the shadow clone when doing the test is so different from the shadow clone now.
"Anyway, it was Tobirama Senju who didn't take this into consideration when he developed the Shadow Clone." Obito finally put the blame on the developer of the ninjutsu.
After drawing for two and a half hours, Obito released the shadow clone. The shadow clone's drawing experience flowed into Obito's brain, and he couldn't help but show a trace of fatigue on his face.
Obito sorted out his memory and found that using the Shadow Clone Technique to learn was not as efficient as he thought, because most of the practice experience was the same and it could not achieve the effect of three times the speed.
"It's better than me alone, and you've become more skilled at drawing." After drawing another picture, Obito nodded with satisfaction.
Although it was still far from what he had in mind, it was still better than the meaningless black lines at the beginning.
After practicing alone for another hour, Obito went to bed. Maybe because he was very tired, he felt sleepy as soon as he lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
The next morning, Obito woke up at about the same time as usual due to his biological clock, washed up, had breakfast, and went to the South Forest to practice.
Maybe it was because he practiced too much before going to bed, but now when Obito looked at the scenes on the street, he couldn't help but think about what they would look like on paper.
"Obito, good morning." Nohara Rin greeted Obito with a smile on her face.
Hearing Nohara Rin's voice, Obito, who was originally in a daze, woke up immediately, smiled and greeted Nohara Rin, "Good morning to you too, Rin."
"Obito, did you stay up late last night? You seemed a little out of sorts just now." Nohara Rin asked with concern.
"Let me guess, are you busy preparing a gift for Teacher Mu Yue?"
Given Rin Nohara's understanding of Obito, this was an easy guess because they were discussing giving gifts yesterday.
"Haha, Xiaolin, you really know me. I didn't stay up late. I just used the shadow clone to speed up my studies yesterday, so I'm a little tired, but it doesn't matter." Obito laughed twice and began to explain.
He indeed did not stay up late, because he heard that staying up late would not make him grow taller, and he was going to become the Hokage, so of course he could not be a short man.
"Well, don't make yourself too tired. After all, the normal training is not easy. It would be bad if you get sick from exhaustion." Nohara Lin reminded with a smile.
Obito patted his chest and said with a smile: "I am going to be the Hokage, I know the importance of things. After all, if I suffer a little loss, it will be the loss of the entire Konoha."
Nohara Rin was amused by Obito's words. She covered her lips with her right hand and chuckled,
"The loss of the entire Konoha is too exaggerated. Obito, you haven't become the Hokage yet."
"I think that if you continue to waste Lin's time, it will cause losses to Lin." Kakashi, who was passing by, left a word and walked towards the training place without looking back.
"Damn Kakashi." Obito curled his lips, feeling a little unhappy.
He was just looking at Nohara Lin's happy smile when Kakashi suddenly appeared.
"We really can't waste time. Let's go and practice. We can talk during the break." Nohara Lin said with a smile and walked towards the place where she practiced.
Seeing this, Obito hurriedly caught up and walked side by side with Nohara Rin.
When Obito and Nohara Rin arrived, Might Guy and Shisui were already training, and Kakashi also drew out the White Fang short blade, looking like he was going to practice.
Obito walked to Shisui's side and began to practice Armament Haki.
Now the breathing method is the main content of training, but they have not neglected the training of Armament Haki. They have to practice for two to three hours every day, and the rest of the time is for training the breathing method.
Once Armament Haki is learned, the upper limit can be raised, but more chakra is needed. However, Armament Haki is difficult, and by the time they have learned it, the chakra will be more than what they have now.
After the training, the five of them gathered together again to discuss the gifts.
"Shisui, did your shadow clone obtain any useful information?" Obito asked.
Since Shisui's shadow clone would go to class every day, the task of asking questions to the Ninja School teachers was left to Shisui, and the shadow clone could just ask while going to school.
"No, those teachers don't know Teacher Mu Yue as well as we do." After recalling the memories that the shadow clone flowed back, Shisui shook his head and said.
They also know that Mu Yue likes egg dishes, while the teachers at the Ninja School only know that Mu Yue likes to practice calligraphy.
"What should we do? As far as I can remember, the only person who is more like a friend to Teacher Mu Yue is Minato Senior, but Minato Senior is on the battlefield." Obito thought for a while and said.
"How about we all make a tights together and give it to Teacher Mu Yue?" Might Guy suggested.
"I don't think it's a good idea." Shisui rejected the proposal.
"Akai, not everyone likes tights, especially green ones." Obito couldn't help but complain.
He didn't dare to imagine what Mu Yue's face would look like wearing a green tights. It was too incongruous.
After a round of discussion, the five people still couldn't decide on a gift, but they agreed to decide on it tomorrow, otherwise there might not be enough time.
