"Speaking of which, Toshihiko, today is a day off, why did you call us here!"

Haha, he said listlessly.

You know, not only did he drink late with Beryuhu last night, but later he repaired it all night in the company of his young lady, and now he is really sleepy.

But there was no way, early in the morning he received a message from Toshihiko that he wanted to gather.

Although he was helpless, he still managed to get up from the bed.

And the same includes Tsunade and Orochimaru, who also shifted their attention to Toshihiko.

However, compared to the doubts of Orochimaru and Jiraiya, Tsunade's eyes seemed a little shy.

Tsunade is still a little restless when he thinks about what he did last night.

Of course, she didn't regret that she forcibly kissed Toshihiko, she was just worried about what Toshihiko thought of her.

"Originally, this matter was going to tell you yesterday, I forgot about it for a while, it's not a big deal, and after a while, the village will hold a ninja assessment, and you also have to participate."

After taking his seat, Toshihiko said slowly.

As soon as the words fell, the air fell silent for a moment.

It can be said that this sudden announcement really shocked them.

Shangnin assessment!

"Haha, I've finally been able to become a shinobi."

In the next second, Jiraiya stood up directly from his position and shouted excitedly.

You must know that the ninja rank is a status symbol.

Moreover, they were only twelve years old, and if it were someone else, they might have just graduated from ninja school at the age of twelve.

Once they pass the assessment, their reputation will once again resound in Konoha.

Of course, their reputation in Konoha is not small now, the disciple of the three generations of Hokage, and the captain of the squad is the most talented ninja Hinata Toshihiko in Konoha.

But it is precisely because of this that the pressure on the three of them is also very great, especially Zilaiya.

After all, Tsunade is the princess of the Senju clan, and Orochimaru himself has a reputation as a genius when he was in the ninja school.

There is nothing but self-rear.

Don't look at Jiraiya's usual big grin and doesn't seem to care about anything, but to be honest, his pressure is still quite high.

And this time the upper ninja assessment is undoubtedly an opportunity to prove, as long as it is successfully passed, then no one will question Jiraiya's strength and talent.

"Can you stop yelling so much, as if you will be able to pass, if you are brushed off by then, I don't think you can laugh out."

Listening to Jiraiya's words, Tsunade couldn't help but strike.

"How could I possibly be brushed off. Oh, I see, you're jealousy, naked jealousy. Jiraiya retorted.

"Cut, shameless."

In the face of Jiraiya and Tsunade's bickering, Toshihiko also smiled and said nothing.

Only Orochimaru seemed to have known about this matter for a long time, and sat in his position indifferently and did not speak.

And it all fell into the eyes of Toshihiko.

I really can't imagine that my cheap senior brother is fast enough.

Obviously, after explaining to Toshihiko last night, Tuan Zang must have sent someone to contact Orochimaru today.

It's just that Toshihiko is curious about how Orochimaru will choose.

"Jiraiya, as Tsunade said, don't be happy too early, I'm not worried about the rest, but don't forget, there is a written test for the assessment, and I'm afraid you won't be able to pass this level."

At this moment, Toshihiko chose to put the matter of Orochimaru aside for the time being, and then turned his head and said to Jiraiya.

Orochimaru and Tsunade's words, Toshihiko is not very worried, only Jiraiya.

The upper ninja assessment is divided into a written test and a practical test.

And the written test for promotion to upper forbearance is different from that for lower forbearance and promotion to middle forbearance, and many of the exam questions are very perverted.

After all, every Shangnin represents the upper class of the village, so naturally it is not allowed to be sloppy.

In terms of the actual combat test, Toshihiko believes that all three of them are fine, but the part of the written test is really a bit difficult for Jiraiya, a scumbag.

"I'm afraid... What are you afraid of, it's a big deal that I just read more books during this time. ”

Listening to Toshihiko's words, Jiraiya suddenly showed a bitter gourd face, but he couldn't coax this situation, so he could only say it head-on.

Actually, not to mention Toshihiko, even Jiraiya himself is a little worried.

It's okay to read the little yellow book usually, but letting him read the textbook is undoubtedly a lullaby for him.

But the upper ninja assessment is very important, and I feel that I have to fight hard.

For Jiraiya's bold words, Toshihiko didn't bother to hit him at this time, he just hoped that he could do it.

"Okay, let's not talk about that, in order to wish you all a smooth passage of the Shangnin assessment, let's have a toast first." At this moment, Toshihiko slowly raised his wine glass.

Cheers !!

Because it was daytime, the crowd didn't drink much.

After a while, Jiraiya and Tsunade chose to leave first.

It's just because Toshihiko said that he wanted to talk to Orochimaru about something.

"Let's go!"

After paying for the drink, Toshihiko said to Orochimaru.

"Hmm!" Nodding, Orochimaru got up and followed behind Toshihiko.

After leaving the tavern, the two of them chatted without a word along the way, all of which were innocuous things.

After all, in the village, there are many pedestrians coming and going on the road, and some things are not discussed here.

So the two of them walked and chatted and walked towards the suburbs.

"I don't know what you're looking for me about."

After the two of them entered a forest, Orochimaru knew that there was no need to continue walking, and then stopped and asked slowly.

"Tuan Zang must have looked for you." Toshihiko doesn't talk nonsense, and goes straight to the point.

And as Toshihiko's words fell, Orochimaru's pupils shrank sharply.

"Don't be so nervous, he wouldn't have come to you so easily without my approval."

Looking at Orochimaru's expression, Toshihiko said softly.

"You already know that."

For Toshihiko's words, Orochimaru naturally believed it, don't look at himself, the captain is only twelve years old.

But in the same way, he is also a disciple of the second Hokage, and his identity is no worse than Danzang.

The most important thing is that even Orochimaru can't see through Toshihiko's current strength at all, and he has always aimed at Toshihiko in the past.

But later, after learning about the corpse bone vein and the reincarnated eye, Orochimaru almost dispelled this idea.

It's just because the growth rate of his captain is too fast, so fast that even Orochimaru is powerless if he wants to chase it.

So even Tuan Zang probably didn't dare to ignore Toshihiko's existence.

"If you know, you know, what I care about is your choice."

Staring at Orochimaru, Toshihiko said softly.
