Chapter 95 Leading the Team as a Chunin
Zhou Cheng crossed his arms and continued to glare at Jiraiya.
"Appreciate further details!"
Jiraiya took out a document and handed it to Zhou Cheng:
"I will promote you to Chunin first, and then as long as your missions meet the standards, I can promote you to Jonin."
Then he moved closer to Zhou Cheng and whispered:
"If I set a precedent for you, future ninja promotions will be in chaos!"
"One or two people will come for promotion if they think they have some ability. The standard for promotion is difficult to define."
"This will seriously lower the overall quality of Konoha's jonin."
"If you really want to do what's best for Konoha, take a step back."
"Those missions are just a matter of time for you!"
After hearing this, Zhou Cheng fell silent and was unable to respond immediately.
Jiraiya was not wrong.
This is a fact.
As the core combat force of a village, the Jonin must be of extremely high quality.
Then strict standards for promotion must be guaranteed.
Zhou Cheng is not satisfied with the current standards.
Because of the last step.
You need to apply to the Hokage first, and you need the Hokage's consent to be promoted to Jonin.
The Hokage is also a human being, and as a human being he has selfish desires.
This will make promotion unfair.
"I can promise you!"
"But you have to promise me one thing!"
"When the next Hokage takes office, he must immediately establish a reasonable promotion system."
Jiraiya's eyes showed gratitude and relief.
If Zhou Cheng doesn't agree, today's incident will definitely not end peacefully.
Zhou Cheng rolled his eyes at Jiraiya. People who don’t want to be Hokage are busier than the Hokage.
He jumped onto a rooftop and used his chakra to shout:
"Everyone, be quiet and listen to me!"
"Arguing is the most cost-effective thing!"
"It's a waste of time and I don't get the results I want."
"The current promotion system was established by the Second Hokage."
“You can’t break the system because of me.”
"It would prevent some people from using this as an excuse to criticize me."
"Like Master Jiraiya said, I agree to take a step back."
As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar!
"Master Zhou Cheng, you can't compromise!"
“They will look down on us even more.”
"We are willing to stand on the same front with you."
The civilians shouted excitedly, which resonated with all the civilians.
How many times have they compromised, but what did they get in the end?
Time and time again, there is no bottom line, and time and time again, they are treated as chess pieces that can be discarded at will.
The bottom line is that it is difficult for ordinary people to produce geniuses.
Even if there is, it will die due to various reasons.
Without powerful ninjas in charge, civilians will always have this fate and there is no way to change it.
It is rare to find someone with extraordinary talent from a common background nowadays.
Or he is the kind of person who has already shown his potential and grown up.
They will never give up such an opportunity.
Zhou Cheng waved his hand and asked them to be quiet, saying that the people's hearts could be used.
"Everyone, I am not compromising with them, but with the Konoha in my heart."
"Jounin is the core fighting force of the village, and is also the standard for calculating whether a village is strong or not."
"If I break this rule today, someone else will break it too."
"By then, the promotion system will be in chaos."
"After that, the strength of a jonin will have no value at all."
"Konoha's overall strength will be affected."
"Konoha has lost its great power, and it no longer has the power to protect everyone."
“So, I’m willing to give in!”
After hearing Zhou Cheng's words, everyone present fell silent.
They admired Zhou Cheng from the bottom of their hearts.
Such a broad mind, such a big picture view!
Even those people of Danzo were somewhat moved.
Why does Lord Danzo have to deal with someone who is so devoted to Konoha?
Bai looked at Zhou Cheng's figure and felt a sense of pride.
This kind of brother Zhou Cheng makes me admire him even more.
I must work harder to become a tool that my brother can use.
Karin is still as infatuated as ever, and Zhou Cheng is always handsome, strong and confident in everything he does!
Jiraiya was a little bit unbelievable.
Is he really only in his teens?
Looks more mature than me!
Zhou Cheng pressed his hands down, signaling everyone to be quiet, then pointed at Danzo's people with a cold look in his eyes:
"Give someone a message for me."
"If he wants to live a few more years, he shouldn't cause so much trouble!"
"My patience has its limits. When that day comes, I will kill him!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole place fell silent!
After a long time, someone took the lead in applauding.
The civilians present applauded and cheered with great excitement.
Their hope is not for the weak.
After obtaining the Chunin certificate, Zhou Cheng took Bai and Karin away.
This matter soon spread throughout Konoha.
Some people are happy that someone is worried.
People's sadness and happiness are never the same.
In the Hokage's office.
Danzo, who has always regarded himself as the acting Hokage, has been here for the past few days.
And now he has become a desktop cleaning master.
His eyes were red and his fists were clenched.
Veins popped out on his forehead.
"Damn Zhou Cheng!"
"How dare you threaten me, the future Hokage!"
"Kill him, be sure to kill him!"
"Somebody come!"
A Root ninja appeared and knelt on one knee.
"Go post a bounty!"
"Zhou Cheng's head, thirty million taels!"
The Root Ninja didn't even ask any questions and just took the order and left.
"Zhou Cheng, I can't sleep unless you die!"
……
In Zhou Cheng's eyes, the Hokage election was ultimately just a farce.
The strength in Konoha is so complicated that it is impossible to achieve a relative balance.
This is the drawback of Sarutobi Hiruzen's conciliatory policy.
In the end, Danzo and his two advisors tried to prevent things from getting any worse.
The only option was to let Tsunade return to the village to succeed as the fifth Hokage.
If this continues, the ninjas from other ninja villages will have arrived at his doorstep.
Jiraiya left and took Naruto to find Tsunade.
Everything seemed to be back to normal.
Only Zhou Cheng knew that the ninja world was always undercurrent.
Akatsuki's Tailed Beast Operation is about to begin.
Then, he took on a difficult task and went out of the village.
As a Chunin, he actually gained the power to lead a team alone.
He also selected his team members himself.
At first, Ino was determined to follow him.
But at present, Zhou Cheng does not want to offend the three families of Pig, Deer and Butterfly.
The only choices are Hinata, Shiro, Yakumo, and Karin.
The first five-man team was thus formed.
This was Danzo's compromise despite Zhou Cheng's tough attitude.
I don’t know if the world is secretly repairing the timeline.
The first mission they took was actually to the Land of Waves.
In this world, Haku and Zabuza would actually meet in this way.
With the blessing of Zhou Cheng Shenle's mind and eyes.
Naturally, they arrived at the Land of Waves without any obstructions.
Zhou Cheng did not take action and hid in the dark.
Let the four of them face Zabuza.
He wanted to give his players some practical experience.
I also want to develop their tacit understanding.
This team will be around for quite some time.
Moreover, they cannot rely on Zhou Cheng for everything.
If this continues, they will be useless!
