In a small courtyard that is not too big, a few children of four or five years old are running wildly there. And one of the children sat there quietly.

"Come and play? Will you be a ninja this time? Let's have fun. ”

The children, at this time, discussed a few words in a whisper, and approached the quiet child together.

"Games? All right! Then let's play. ”

The little kid who seemed to be quiet, after a moment of hesitation, joined in, in the childish game.

"Fire escape! Howe Fireball Technique! ”

"Water escape! Water Array Wall! ”

"Wind escape! Vacuum wave! ”

It was a few random strokes in the hands of the children, one as if it was blowing the wind, one pressed its hand on the ground, and the other was like the first one.

In addition to shouting the name of the move, it is to make all kinds of actions that seem strange to adults.

————————————————

"There is no trace of refining chakra! There is no trace of practicing ninjutsu, and there is no sign of contact with outsiders. Then come down and report to the Hokage for the time being. ”

Outside the orphanage, on a large tree, a man dressed in black and wearing a fox mask on his head after five days of careful observation.

I finally made my own judgment, that is, the little guy who brought me five days ago was not a spy from other ninja villages.

"So, what exactly to do with this little guy. It's up to Hokage-sama to make a decision. ”

Then the ninja disappeared from the tree in an instant, and headed to the most conspicuous building in the village, the Hokage Building.

In the orphanage, everything is like what ordinary children do, without the slightest accident or fluctuation.

……………………

"Wiseman? What a strange name. But, little friend, come with me. Hokage-sama wants to see you. ”

A shinobi in a green vest came to the orphanage where Wiseman was adopted. Finding Wiseman, he told her the message.

Eight days had passed since Wiseman arrived at the orphanage, and it was only after these eight days that the Hokage had truly summoned Wiseman, the sole survivor.

Even the review time of the dark department has passed three days in the blink of an eye, but this situation is not surprising to others.

And as a four or five-year-old child, he will not have any emotions about this matter. Because, at this time, Wiseman was still playing ninja games with those children.

And even if you are not a child's IQ now, you will not have any emotions about this matter. After all, as the head of a village. Moreover, this village still has more people than the average town.

It's not surprising that there will be delays in the resolution of incidents. It is even said that the last orphans who were able to get close to such other villages in person. The Hokage can also be considered a good person to some extent.

"Hokage-sama? Is that the old man up there? ”

Wiseman, with a hint of naivety, pointed to the three heads on the most conspicuous rocky mountain. For such a long time, since playing ninja games.

Naturally, it is impossible not to know a little about the basic situation of this village, at least, some of the basic stratification of the ninja, and also, the supreme power of this village, has been confirmed.

"That's right, let's go! Poor boy, I hope you can pick a better future for yourself! ”

The shinobu rubbed Wiseman's head, then took his hand and led her slowly towards the Hokage Building. Along the way, I saw a lot of things.

Ninja shop, barbecue shop, Ichiraku ramen, flower shop, meatball shop, ordinary people's residence. These basic things can be regarded as seen.

Whenever he passed a shop that sold food, Wiseman's eyes were always full of longing. No way, although he can't remember it clearly, but in his vague memory.

Food was a very scarce thing for him. At the same time, it also makes him feel delicious.

"What's wrong? Would you like to eat it? ”

And the Nakashinobi who led the way, after seeing the longing in Wiseman's eyes, asked directly.

"No, I don't want to eat it."

After hearing the unknown shinobi's question, a trace of fear appeared in Wiseman's eyes, and then he immediately refused.

"Really, I don't know what kind of life you used to have! Madame! Bring me two strings of three-color balls! ”

After seeing Wiseman's eyes, a trace of distress appeared in the eyes of the middle ninja. Then, he directly pulled Huai Senman to the meatball shop.

Bought two strings of three-color balls and handed one to Wiseman's hand. And the other string, gently held it in his hand.

"Let's eat a bunch of meatballs first! As for the rest, I'll treat you to it when I get back from Hokage-sama, little one. ”

After seeing Wiseman's somewhat incredulous eyes, the unknown Nakashinobu rubbed his head with a smile.

………………

"Is Tianhe coming? Let's go inside! Hokage-sama is waiting for you right now. Really, so much time was wasted. ”

In front of the Hokage Building, the ninja wearing the middle ninja costume looked at the guy who was late, and his tone was a little not good.

"I'm sorry! Yaya, Luka. It's a little pitiful to see this child. I helped her buy a little food by the way, and delayed a little time. But I don't think Hokage-sama cares about such a thing. ”

Obviously, the three people clearly knew each other. It's just that the work is a little different.

"Alright, you better hurry up and get in! Hokage-sama won't blame you, but you can't waste Hokage-sama's time all the time! ”

The ninja, Luka, waved his hand back, apparently motioning for him to hurry in.

"Don't be afraid, Hokage-sama is very amiable. Don't worry, you won't lose your temper because of such a small thing. ”

Ito Tenwa turned his head and looked at Wiseman, who had become a little timid because of what those two people said. patted him on the shoulder, which was kind of cheering him on. Then he walked into the Hokage Building, the administrative center of the village.

After going up many stairs, I came to the top floor of the building, which was outside the Hokage's office.

It doesn't look any different, but there are actually quite a few ninjas hiding around here. After all, the Hokage is one of the leaders of the country on another level.

"Hokage-sama, I've already brought that kid here."

Ito Tenwa knocked on the door of his office, said what he was coming from, and waited for Hokage to summon him.
