CH 53

“Grandpa Inoue, Grandpa Matsushita, have you eaten yet?”

After entering the house, Hayate excitedly circled around the two old men, leaving Kanpū to pour the water to these two old men.

“We have all eaten, thank you for your concern, Hayate-chan.”

“Hayate-chan, are you doing well here?”

“Hayate-chan, are you training Kenjutsu?”

“Hayate-chan, you have to focus on Kenjutsu, don’t train your Kekkei Genkai, understand?”

“Everyone is pinning their hopes on you. In the future, you must use Konoha-Style Kenjutsu to make the Gekkō Clan be famous in the Shinobi World. Don’t be slacking.”

“If you don’t understand anything, you can always to Grandpa to ask for advice.”

Kanpū stood at the door of the kitchen with no expression on his face, then turned around silently and poured out the two glasses of water in his hand.

‘These bad old men are so cruel, you actually wanted to bring down my little brother! I’ll kill you with thirst.’

The two old men talked for a long time, and as there was no water, they were a little thirsty.

“Cough cough, Kanpū-chan?”

Inoue turned his head to look for Kanpū, but he couldn’t find anyone, so he had to let Hayate go there, “Hayate-chan, could you pour a glass of water for the two grandpas?”

“Okay!”

Hayate was so excited about this meeting that he rushed into the kitchen in a hurry when he heard this, and then he saw his big brother leaning against the wall to one side, looking at himself with strange gaze.

“Big brother, big brother.”

Being stared by Kanpū, Hayate felt his hair standing and he was agitated at this moment.

“Pour water?”

Kanpū asked with a sneer, and closed the door at the same time.

“Well, the two grandpas are thirsty.” Hayate glanced at the door, then went to get a water glass.

“Coincidentally, there was no water at home right now. Fortunately, I found it in time. Look, I’m still boiling it, it will be finished soon.” Kanpū said seriously, “We can’t make the two grandpas thirsty.”

“But when I was writing my experience, I even poured water to drink myself.” Hayate put down the water glass, grabbed the thermos next to it, and shook it, ‘Eh, there is really no water.’

‘It’s strange.’

Then he looked at Kanpū, and then at the gas stove next to him and the kettle on it, blinking his innocent big eyes, “Big brother, the fire is not on.”

“Oh.”

“Big brother, how can you boil the water without turning on the fire?” Hayate pouted.

Kanpū then turned around slowly, turning on fire, and trying to turn it on for a long time, but there was no fire: “Oh! Yeah! Good, strange, weird, it, can’t, turn on.”

“Big brother!”

Hayate pushed away Kanpū with a puffed face, unscrewed the gas canister, then turned on the fire, and it succeeded at once.

“Awesome! Hayate, you actually understand this!” Kanpū exaggeratedly praised Hayate.

“Because I used to cook with my father a lot.” Hayate said proudly, and then he found that the kettle on the gas stove was a little weird. Hayate, who has experience in kitchen, couldn’t help but poked the kettle with his finger, and then found that the kettle was unexpectedly light.

Hayate hurriedly turned off the fire, then picked up the kettle and opened the lid to take a look. It’s really empty. Seeing this, his little face turned green.

“Big brother…”

“Aaahhhh, I forgot to pour the water, sorry, sorry.”

Kanpū knew his mistake and corrected it. He immediately grabbed the kettle, went to the sink, turn on the faucet, and filled the kettle to the brim.

“Big brother, it will take a long time to boil so much.” Hayate pouted, “Both grandpas are thirsty.”

“My stupid younger brother, the two grandpas are teasing you. In fact, they are not thirsty at all. They just want you to pour the water to give you the chance to be filial to them, understand?” Kanpū dilly-dallying put the kettle on the gas stove, then turned on the fire, then switch to the smallest setting, and slowly boil the water with a small fire.

“Big brother, it will take longer to boil it like this.” Hayate stomped his feet in anger.

“Boiling water is like stewing soup. Simmering it on a low fire can make the water taste good!” Kanpū said, “Think about it, do you want the two grandpas to drink the water that is violently boiled with a big fire, or the one being simmered slowly by the essence of the fire?”

“Well, this…”

Hayate tilted his head, and he felt that his big brother said seemed to make sense, but when he thought about it carefully, he felt something strange.

‘Yeah, from the moment I entered the kitchen, it felt weird. There was hot water in the thermos bottle before, but it suddenly disappeared. Moreover, big brother said to boil water, but not only the gas was not turned on, but there was also no water in the kettle. And now, he boils the water with a small fire…’

‘Big brother is really bad!’

“Hayate-chan?”

At this time, the two grandpas, Inoue and Matsushita, came to the kitchen.

‘He went in for a long time and there was no movement, and the door was closed. Is it so complicated to pour two glasses of water?’

The moment Kanpū heard the sound, he immediately turned the fire up, and then opened the door.

When Hayate saw his big brother’s action, he was not feeling good, but he couldn’t speak ill about his big brother in front of others, so he could only lower his head and said aggrievedly: “Grandpa Inoue, Grandpa Matsushita, the water is gone, and it’s still boiling.”

“It turns out that Kanpū-chan is boiling the water. I’m wondering why I didn’t see anyone just now.” Inoue looked at Kanpū with a look of relief, “Kanpū-chan, you’ve grown up.”

“No, no, I’m still a child.” Kanpū said modestly, and then he remembered about the collection, so he hurriedly asked Hayate, “Hayate, can you wait for the water to boil here? I have something to ask two grandpas!”

“Oh.”

After a few days of being attacked, Hayate no longer dared to resist Kanpū.

After Kanpū said that, he closed the kitchen door, then pulled Gekkō Inoue and Matsushita down to the living room sofa.

“Kanpū-chan, what do you want to ask us?” Inoue asked curiously.

“Chakra Refining!” Kanpū said one word at a time.

‘40% acceleration is still too slow. I have to collect more Chakra Refining’s fusions, and I can keep Hayate away from them, killing two birds with one stone, why not do it?’

“Chakra Refining?”

Inoue and Matsushita looked at each other and said with a smile, “Okay, then let’s start from the beginning!”

They all know the gap between Kanpū and Hayate’s talent. Therefore, they are more optimistic about Hayate and are more willing to guide Hayate, but this does not mean that they hate Kanpū and don’t want to guide him. After all, if the talent is not good, they can still work hard. Children who are struggling to learn is just as pleasing to the elderly as talented children!

Especially Kanpū is also the son of Clan Head.

Ten minutes later, the water boiled, and Hayate poured two cups of hot water and brought them out.

At the same time, Kanpū has just collected one Chakra Refining Technique from Inoue and Matsushita each.

The green light cluster in my mind just spewed out two blue light dots, which were swallowed and merged in an instant.

In this way, Kanpū’s Chakra Refining Technique has a 60% efficiency bonus.

Of course, this 60% bonus is based on Kanpū’s own talent as a starting point. Compared with others, even if he has a 60% bonus, his speed is still slow.

So Kanpū took the opportunity of the two old men hissing and drinking the hot water, and threw away the last Collection Technique of the day.
