Kenji stayed in the summoning world for a full week before daring to return to the real world, to prevent Hanzo from staying in place to wait for him.
Clearly, Kenji was overthinking it, because not long after he left, Hanzo also left.
As the Rain Shadow of the Rain ninja village, Hanzo was much busier than Kenji imagined. He simply didn't have time to waste on him.
And the reason why Kenji encountered Hanzo was just because he was unlucky and happened to meet Hanzo passing by.
After carefully investigating the surroundings to confirm that there were no ambushes, Kenji finally breathed a sigh of relief.
However, he didn't let Charizard return to the summoning world.
After all, Pokémon's perception was much stronger than humans.
In case something happened and Kenji didn't have time to return to the summoning world, Charizard could also take him away immediately.
...
Charizard brought its tail slightly closer to a pile of firewood next to it, and the somewhat damp firewood suddenly ignited.
"Well done, Charizard!"
Kenji couldn't help but praise, then put the fish he had just cleaned on the fire to roast.
In most cases, it was better to use charcoal for grilling, because using an open flame could easily result in the outside being burnt and the inside being raw, and the heat was difficult to control.
However, Kenji was confident that he could roast a good grilled fish with an open flame. There was no other reason, only practice makes perfect.
After all, as a ninja, he didn't have charcoal to use every day when cooking.
Before long, the aroma of grilled fish filled the entire cave.
At this moment, Charizard, who had been dozing off to the side, suddenly opened its eyes, then reached out its claw and gently poked Kenji's shoulder.
Kenji turned his head to look at Charizard, then responded softly:
"It's okay, I noticed that person too."
Then, Kenji looked out of the cave and shouted loudly:
"Come out, I see you."
Apart from the sound of raindrops dripping, there was no other movement outside.
It was as if Kenji and Charizard had misperceived.
After thinking for a moment, Kenji continued to shout with a somewhat murderous tone:
"Come over here before I lose my patience, or I'll send you to see your great-grandmother later."
Under Kenji's threat, before long, a ragged little beggar trembled and crawled out of the bushes not far away.
The little beggar quickly walked into the cave, glanced at the grilled fish on the grill, and revealed a deep desire in her eyes.
However, she quickly lowered her head and knelt down deeply in front of Kenji.
"Lord Ninja, I have no malice. This cave was originally where I lived. It's an honor to be noticed by you. If you think I'm an eyesore, I'll leave now."
After listening, a somewhat embarrassed expression appeared on Kenji's face.
He said why it was so strange. He had randomly found a cave, and there was actually a pile of somewhat dry firewood inside.
It turned out that he had accidentally occupied someone else's home.
After confirming that the little beggar in front of him didn't have any chakra in her body and didn't pose any threat, Kenji couldn't help but sigh.
The little beggar, who had been lying on the ground, couldn't help but tremble when she heard Kenji's sigh.
However, she didn't dare to make any movements, because she knew that it was useless to choose to run away in front of a ninja.
Suddenly, the little beggar carefully took out an apple from her arms, placed it in front of her, and said loudly:
"This... this is my most precious food. Can you accept it?"
Looking at the somewhat spoiled apple not far away, a complex emotion arose in Kenji's heart.
This should be the so-called war orphan. Because of the war, her family was destroyed, so she could only wander around, treating a bad apple as a treasure and hiding it, not even willing to eat a bite.
Not only did he occupy someone else's home, but he also scared them like this. He really deserved to die.
Thinking of this, Kenji slowly walked to the little beggar, then helped her up, saying with a gentle expression:
"I'm sorry, I didn't know this was your territory. As a thank you, would you like to have dinner with me?"
The little beggar carefully examined Kenji's face from under her messy bangs.
This ninja was so good-looking. He shouldn't be a bad person. Moreover, she didn't have anything that could be sought after.
So, Kenji carefully helped the little beggar to sit down by the fire.
At this time, he found that the little beggar in front of him was actually quite hygienic. She didn't have the unpleasant smell he had imagined. She only had a bit of the scent of mud that she had picked up outside.
Although the clothes on her body looked very old, they weren't dirty, clearly having been washed every day.
Thinking of this, Kenji couldn't help but feel curious. Even though she was in a situation where she didn't know if she could eat the next meal, she was still so clean?
The little beggar in front of him was really strange.
After the grilled fish was cooked, Kenji picked up one and handed it to the little beggar next to him.
The little beggar looked at the grilled fish in front of her, swallowed a large mouthful of saliva, then looked at Kenji, saying cautiously:
"Can someone like me really enjoy this kind of food?"
Kenji smiled, reached out with his other hand and touched the little beggar's hair, responding softly:
"What are you saying? Everyone is born equal. Don't look down on yourself like that."
The little beggar took a deep look at Kenji, then took the grilled fish and ate it in large bites.
Perhaps it was because she hadn't eaten proper food for too long, so she ate very quickly, as if she couldn't feel the heat at all, and she didn't even let go of the fish bones, chewing them up and putting them in her mouth, making Kenji's teeth ache just watching.
After finishing a full four grilled fish, the little beggar lay down on the ground, touching her stomach with a satisfied expression.
At this time, the rain outside had finally stopped, and Kenji also stood up to prepare to leave.
Originally, he had planned to spend the night in this cave, but the owner of the cave had already returned, so it wasn't good for him to continue living there.
Otherwise, if it got out that he, a dignified Konoha Jonin, had actually robbed a little beggar of her nest, what would that be?
