Chapter 23
Hokage's Office
"No, this child cannot join the root. Yechen couldn't do it, and Namikaze Minato couldn't do it. Danzo."
Sarutobi Hiruzen stood at the window of the Hokage's office with a solemn and decisive look on his face. The spiky-headed Danzo next to him had an even more arrogant face. Others were afraid of the majesty of the Hokage, but he was not afraid.
Both of them are disciples of the Second Generation. , and both inherited the ideas of the Nidaime.
Sarutobi Hiruzen is gentle, Danzo is cold! One is light and the other is dark, complementing each other.
"Yechen is just a kid from a foreign village, wouldn't it be a good idea to join Gen? Sarutobi? Root needs children like this to join, don’t you understand?" Danzo said.
Ye Chen has decided that he must become the sword in his hand, his own weapon, and hit wherever he points!
This is the fate of a ninja!
"Danzo, don't think that I don't know what you are thinking. Using Yechen to deal with Uchiha, you are ruining this child's ninja path. He has a better future. The ninja world is about to be in turmoil, and Konoha needs such talented ninjas."Sarutobi Hiruzen said
"So what, if a child from another village is sacrificed, he is sacrificed, so there is nothing wrong with that. Ye Chen, if you don't agree, then Namikaze Minato, you have to choose one of the two. Danzo said without any doubt.
"No, I won't agree to this, you don't have to say anything. Danzo, you have to remember that I am the Hokage now."
Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but spoke harshly, and showed the majesty of the Hokage.
Danzo clenched his hands and his body was shaking. This was caused by anger.
He had a look of unwillingness on his face. He should have been sitting in this position. It's his own, but this is the will of the Second Hokage and he can't go against it. He can only jump into the darkness, take root in the depths of Konoha, do all things that are not bright, and be evil to others.
Danzo was filled with anger and said angrily:"Aru Fly, you will regret it. Not to mention Namikaze Minato, I think that child Yechen must have a traitor in the back of his head. Don't you know how calmly he killed Uchiha Shiwaka? Do you think you can control him? You can’t control this kind of person now, let alone in the future."
Yechen killed Uchiha Shiwaka. No one in Konoha knew about it, but Anbu and Gen watched the whole process from beginning to end. Danzo had already had a premonition
, and he understood that this child had certain dangers and terrifying powers. Talent, so eager to control
"Danzo, you are wrong, why do you think Konoha can survive until now. That's because of the bond between ninjas."Sarutobi Hiruzen said slowly.
"Humph, ridiculous!"
Danzo snorted coldly and walked away.
Sarutobi Hiruzen watched his friend and himself drifting away and couldn't help but sigh, and said to the empty office.:
"Come out."
When the words fell, there was only a"bang" sound, white smoke spurted out, and a ninja wearing a jounin vest appeared out of thin air in the center of the Hokage's office.
This ninja's facial features were sharp and angular, exuding an edge of energy from the inside out, especially him His short white hair stands out among the jonins.
"Sakumo, what do you think about this?"Sarutobi Hiruzen watched this man slowly return to his seat.
This man is Hatake Sakumo, the current head of the Hatake family, and the father of the future Hatake. With his superb sword skills, he was The ninjas of other villages are known as the White Fang of Konoha!
Even the ninjas of other villages voluntarily gave up their mission when they saw Hatake Sakumo and did not dare to fight with them.
With a respectful look on his face, Hatake Sakumo looked at the Third Hokage in front of him and said:
"Danzo-sama is still a bit too extreme. This kid might as well join ANBU. Anbu is a place to train ninjas. Compared to Gen, it is more suitable for him."
"I think so too, Sakumo, you are the captain of the ANBU, Yechen is a kid with talent, I can rest assured that I will let you practice. If it were really given to Danzo, a good seedling would be so useless."The Third Hokage said
"Don't worry, Hokage-sama, I'll leave this matter to my subordinates."Hatake Sakumo said
"Fine. But before that I want to see this kid."
Sarutobi Hiruzen said, he was going to pay a private visit incognito to see what Yechen, this kid, does on weekdays.
……
At the border of the Land of Fire, a group of Konoha ninjas were hiding in the jungle. They were careful and kept their whereabouts hidden along the way.
One of the ninjas was Yechen's school teacher Okamoto. Unfortunately, he did not see Yechen win the ninja competition championship in the end.
I saw him leaning on a big branch, hiding his figure with the huge trunk of the tree, and there was a companion next to him
"Okamoto-kun, we must be careful during this secret mission to sneak into the Land of Rain, and try not to fight other ninja villages."
The ninja said. His name is Shirano Huo. He belongs to the ANBU and is good at tracking and investigating.
"I see."Okamoto smiled bitterly.
They are just chuunin, and they are not worth mentioning in terms of the battle between the huge ninja villages. At this time, although the major ninja villages have not started fighting, they are still surrounded by dangers.
If they encounter an ambush, the weak ones will still be surrounded by dangers. Well, facing the powerful Ninja Village, they had a narrow escape from death.
This is the fate of ninjas. They know that they will die, but they will still carry out the orders.
At this moment, their team took a short rest. Okamoto looked in the direction of Konoha. If Thinking.
Not far away from where they were resting, a small wooden lizard puppet instantly got into the ground.
……
Konoha Village, the place behind the mountains.
In a forest, the wind blows from time to time, causing the leaves to rustle. boom! boom! boom!!
Periods of regular beating sounds could be heard. Ye Chen was standing in front of a thick wooden stake and kept punching the wooden stake.
It is worth noting that the surface of the wooden pile is covered with a thick layer of iron sheet, which is two to three centimeters!
There was a deep dent in the iron sheet of the wooden stake, and Yechen's fists were still punching the dent again and again.
There were faint stains of blood in the depression.
Although Yechen's fist was wrapped with a bandage, the bandage was already stained with blood, and blood and sweat were intertwined.
Punch like this, hundreds or thousands of times!
His eyes are persistent and full of perseverance!
Even with three-color Haki and Devil Fruit abilities, Yechen still did not relax his training.
This is already the second day of the ninja competition. He is training himself, devil training, and also reflecting on the battle with Namikaze Minato.
"Huh?"
Ye Chen frowned, feeling that there was someone beside him.
He closed his fist and turned around suddenly, only to see a dwarf wearing casual gray shirt standing behind him.
Who else could this dwarf be if he wasn't the Third Hokage?
Ye Chen was shocked, and he He actually didn't notice Sarutobi Hiruzen until the Third Hokage came to him. This guy's strength is really terrifying!
He's just a Kage-level powerhouse!
He quickly put away his turbulent emotions and bowed.:
"I've met the Third Hokage!"
"Haha, kid, don’t be so restrained."The Third Hokage waved his hand and said with a smile.
But when he saw the deep dents and blood stains on Yechen's iron pile, his pupils tightened!
He was amazed in his heart, there is a reason why this child is so strong at such an age!
