Naruto: After traveling through time, I became the disciple of the first generation

After just one glance, Ashina recognized his grandson. They hadn't seen each other for nearly twenty years, and Arashi's figure, voice, and appearance had changed greatly over the years.

Even so, Ashina recognized it immediately.

None of the recognition scenes that Lan had imagined happened, and he was completely defeated by the word "good grandson".

Tears fell down.

"It's me, Grandpa!"

Ashina took two big steps towards Lan and hugged him in his arms.

"I haven't seen you for so many years. You've grown taller and stronger!"

Ashina patted Arashi's shoulder. In his memory, Arashi was still a chubby little boy.

Time has passed and my grandson has grown up.

After not seeing them for so many years, Ashina missed his descendants terribly.

But there's no reason to go back.

He was very angry about what they had done to the Whirlpool Country, and he didn't want to go back to see them.

But unexpectedly, Lan would come here on his own today.

As an extension of his own bloodline, Ashina loves children very much.

But the reason why he particularly favors Kushina is because the parents of the other grandchildren love them very much.

But Kushina was the one who was disliked, and his seventh son did not like this girl.

So when Kushina was a child, she often went to him for comfort, and over time he became more fond of Kushina.

"Lan, I didn't expect you to find your way here. Did something big happen in the Land of Whirlpools? What disaster did your father cause again?"

When Lan heard these words, her tears stopped a little and she felt quite embarrassed for a moment.

"No, no, Grandpa. The Whirlpool Country is actually okay. It hasn't developed any better, but it hasn't deteriorated any more either."

"It was just approaching the brink of decline. My father felt that he had no ability to manage the country, nor to take the family further, so he passed the position of clan leader and daimyo to me..."

After hearing this, Ashina couldn't believe what he heard!

"He passed the title of daimyo to you! Isn't this ridiculous!"

Ashina was a little furious for a moment. He originally thought that his third son was a talented person, but he turned out to be a reckless man who knew nothing about dealing with state issues and was even led by his older brothers.

But it doesn't matter if we just turn a blind eye to it. There are no major problems in the country anyway. If they don't want to come, then they don't have to come. We're used to it.

But now, the grandson said that the country has begun to move closer to the edge of decline! And his good son simply quit! He passed the position of patriarch to his son!

This is so cowardly!

Seeing this, Qu Feng quickly explained: "Lord Ashina, you have some misunderstandings. The Third Prince's ability is indeed not that good. You can see it over the years."

"But your grandson is very capable. He inherited his father's ninja talent and is also very good at governing the country. After taking office, he successively promulgated several laws, which gradually improved the lifeless Whirlpool Country."

"That's why I noticed a good talent in the Whirlpool Country."

Didn't Ashina expect that there was such a reason behind this? None of his sons were outstanding.

Those who originally had expectations have now become just like everyone else.

But he never expected that there would be a child who would take on the responsibility among his grandchildren.

This is really a joke of fate. Ashina didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Lan came here for two main purposes. One was to visit his grandfather whom he hadn't seen for a long time. He couldn't let go of the family relationship he had known for so many years, but for various reasons, he was unable to do so."

"And the second one is to come to Konoha Village for further study. We made an agreement that if he can pass my practical test, then I will help him rebuild the Whirlpool Country."

Then Qufeng explained to Ashina what Arashi should learn and how to practice when he came to Konoha Village.

After hearing everything, Ashina looked at Lan with satisfaction. He had not expected that his grandson would be so courageous and dare to carry out drastic reforms when the family was in decline.

He also took the initiative to absorb new knowledge from the outside world and traveled thousands of miles to Konoha Village to start intensive learning.

This is not a hardship that ordinary people can endure.

Although he never got involved in the affairs of Konoha Village during his many years in the Wind-Taking Realm, he could see the busy figures of every Hokage.

Especially Mizumon, who at the beginning had to travel back to his clan homeland every day under the stars.

And now his grandson also has to start studying in the Hokage Building. The difficulty will definitely be very high and it will be very cumbersome.

At the same time, he was even more disappointed with his other sons. So many adults were not as good as a child in his twenties. I'm afraid that all of them had used their energy in the power grabbing turmoil of that year.

Ashina has experienced the feeling of being disappointed in his parents over and over again over the years.

Fortunately, there is a good child now, who has rekindled his hope for the Whirlpool Country. Only when such a person leads the country can the country continue to prosper.

Ashina patted Lan's shoulder and said, "Good boy, Grandpa is optimistic about you. Among all these descendants, I am actually most optimistic about your second uncle, but he is too calm and not suitable for fighting."

"Besides that, there is your father, who is brave and good at fighting. I thought he was very much like me, but now it seems that he is not. He is just a first-level reckless man."

"But you are different from that kid. Not only are you capable, you are also smart. From the policies you have issued and your determination to come to Konoha Village to study, I know that you have a long-term vision. You don't focus on the gains and losses of the moment, but care about the future of the Whirlpool Country."

Lan was extremely happy to be recognized by his grandfather. In the Land of Whirlpools, he didn't care how the elders praised him, because many of them were mixed with sarcasm.

He wanted to see him make a fool of himself so that he could find an opportunity to completely bring down his lineage, and then he could replace them.

But grandpa was different. His praise was sincere and Lan could hear it.

Being recognized by his grandfather, Lan felt that everything he had done was not in vain.

"Arashi is a very good boy. When I heard in Konoha Village that a little genius had appeared in the Whirlpool Country, I decided to go and see him. My good friend Hong was also planning to go to the Whirlpool Country, so I took him with me."

"As a result, Arashi gave me a great surprise. The Whirlpool Country may really be saved."

Qufeng's words were also full of praise for Lan.

When mentioning the Whirlpool Country, Ashina's eyes flickered constantly, and finally became calm again.

"Let's hope so. It would be great if they could be saved, but we can't just rely on Lan alone. The tribesmen also need to have the will to do the job."
