Chapter 244: Brother-in-law (Part 2)
Zhang Miao took the shy looking Temari back to his room. Kankuro called him his "brother-in-law" and followed him. Seeing this scene, the corner of Baki's mouth can't help but twitching.
The task that Rasa gave him is to bring Temari and Kankuro to be friends with Zhang Miao since he wanted to form a natural and friendly relationship with Chiyo's powerful grandson.
But looking at the current situation, it seemed to be somewhat beyond Baki's expectations.
"If they are like this... They should be considered to be getting along... Probably..."
As if seeing that Baki was a little worried, Ebizo, who was behind him, immediately patted him on the shoulder.
"Don't worry. Other than money, that brat likes pretty girls the most. He won't do anything to the daughter of the Fourth Kazekage. Care to smoke a cigarette?"
Baki: "…"
"Damn, hearing you say this, now I'm even more worried!"
Although he thought so in his heart, he did not dare to say that. Facing the cigarette that Ebizo handed over, he hurriedly received it with both hands respectfully.
"Thank you, Advisor Ebizo. Actually, there is another matter for me to attend to this time. Last time, Ryu-sama said..."
"The blueprint, right?" Before Baki finished speaking, Chiyo nodded, "Little Ryu has already told this old granny about this matter. I will go and bring it to you now!"
After saying that, Chiyo gave Ebizo another glare, and then turned to take the blueprint.
After she left, Ebizo sighed in relief, "Sigh, to other people beside Little Ryu, sister is still so strict. Baki, do you want to play a game of chess with me?"
Although Ebizo used a questioning tone, Baki did not think that he had the qualifications to refuse, so he immediately nodded.
"Uh... Okay, Advisor Ebizo, please!"
"Hm!"
Ebizo agreed and sat down. After he sat down, Baki sat down as well. Then, the two of them began to play chess. However, Baki was not Ebizo's opponent and was quickly defeated.
"You're really a splendid strategist, Adivsor Ebizo. I admit my defeat!" Looking at Ebizo who was as steady as a Mountain, Baki praised sincerely.
When he said this, Baki was sincere because he knew that this kind looking old man sitting in front of him was not a simple person!
In the Second War, Ebizo, was the commander of Sunagakure's forces. His strategies and plans were brilliant.
Although he was lacking in personal strength, with his intelligence, no one in Sunagakure would dare to look down on him!
Even Rasa said that if Ebizo and Chiyo did not retire together, then the situation in Sunagakure would not be so passive.
Therefore, Baki felt that it is very normal for him to lose to such an intelligent person in chess.
However, what he did not expect is that just as he finished speaking, Chiyo's voice came from the door.
"Gah, a splendid strategist? From the day before yesterday, he has already lost more than three million to my little grandson. The money he saved over the years are almost all lost!"
"Uh..." Hearing Chiyo's words, Baki widened her eyes, revealing a face of disbelief, "How is this possible?"
"What's impossible about that!" Saying this, Chiyo opened her palm towards Baki, "And he lost about sixty times!"
Baki: "…"
"F*ck, not only did he lose, but he also lost sixty times?"
Looking at Baki's face that is filled with disbelief, Ebizo immediately revealed a face of embarrassment, "That... sister, there is no need to say this kind of thing..."
"Even if you lost, what is there to be afraid of?"
Chiyo seemed to have no intention of giving Ebizo time rest. As she spoke, she rolled her eyes at him, "Furthermore, that brat has always loved money more than he loves people. Don't expect that brat to return the money to you!"
"Uh... That doesn't matter!" Hearing Chiyo's words, Ebizo immediately shook his head.
"In any case, I don't have any use for my money. If Ryu likes it, I'll just give it to him. Speaking of which, this kid is really not bad. He is strong and smart. In the future, he will definitely become a great person."
"Do I need you to tell me?" As soon as Ebizo finished speaking, Chiyo proudly raised her head, "My Little Ryu might become the Fifth Kazekage in the future..."
But suddenly, Chiyo came to a realization and stopped talking. She then shook her head.
"Forget it, As long as he can grow up happily, I will be satisfied. Here, these are the blueprints you want!"
With that, Chiyo threw a scroll to Baki, and then waved at them, "Alright, you guys continue playing chess, I am going to fish!"
After saying that, Chiyo turned around and left. Looking at her leaving figure, Ebizo suddenly sighed helplessly.
"Sigh..."
He knew that although Chiyo did not say anything, she still did not recover from the death of her son and daughter-in-law in the war, and also Sasori's betrayal.
Sasori's incident gave Chiyo a heavy blow.
Chiyo placed everything on him. Everything she did was for him. His betrayal made Chiyo feel that everything she did was meaningless. Feeling disheartened, she no longer participated in the political affairs of Sunagakure and chose to live in seclusion.
Therefore, ever since Zhang Miao came, Ebizo had always suspected that Zhang Miao was used by some higher-ups in Sunagakure in order to make use of Chiyo's feelings for Sasori to achieve a certain hidden goal.
However, with these few days of contact, Ebizo gradually dispelled his doubts. Because he found that although Zhang Miao was young, his strength and wisdom far surpassed ordinary people. He would overshadow many geniuses in this world.
It was impossible for such a person to be controlled by others, let alone become a chess piece!
It was precisely because he understood this that Ebizo also had some expectations for Zhang Miao, hoping that he would be able to heal the trauma in his sister's heart.
"From the looks of it now, sister has indeed changed a lot compared to before. Perhaps she will be able to pull herself together soon?"
Thinking of this, Ebizo's mood immediately became better. Then, he smiled at Baki, who was at the side.
"Baki, how about we play a few more rounds?"
"Ah? Okay!"
Although he didn't know why Ebizo, who had been sighing just now, was suddenly smiling, in the face of his request, Baki still didn't dare to say "no". Once again, he respectfully played chess with him.
The two played from noon to evening. At this time, Baki remembered that it was time for him to go back. He hurriedly stood up and bowed to Ebizo.
"Advisor Ebizo, it's almost time. I should go back. I'm really sorry!"
"Haha, don't worry!" As soon as Baki finished speaking, Ebizo smiled and waved his hand at him.
"You should go after dinner. Knowing Rasa, he will definitely send someone to pick you up. Let the children play for a while longer. Come, let's play the next game!"
"Uh... alright!"
Hearing Ebizo's words, Baki had no choice but to sit down again. He then lowered his head slightly, "Advisor Ebizo, please!"
