Chapter 20: The Bell Mission of the Rotten Street
Konoha, Hokage's office.
"You told him everything?" Sarutobi slashed the Hokage hat, lit the dry smoke, and carefully read the mission report of Mitarai Zixiao. It's full of information about Duke, including his awakening to the Bloodline Realm, and what happened last night.
"Yes, Hokage-sama." Mitarai Zixiao nodded dryly, not defending himself.
"Aren't you afraid that he will hate this village because of it?" Sarutobi took one puff after another and smoked dry cigarettes, his face was shrouded in smoke, and his sharp gaze pierced Mitarai Zixiao, and the momentum that belonged to the Hokage instantly rose to the peak.
"I'm even more afraid that he will be disappointed in me......" Mitarai Zixiao ignored the majesty of the ape flying sun, and said from the bottom of his heart, "As a ninja, I am not qualified...... But I don't regret it. I am willing to bear the full consequences of this, whatever the consequences. ”
Is it another Shuomao? Ape Fei Sun was silent.
Mission or emotion, this is the choice that every ninja faces. Ninjas are regarded as tools without feelings, or in other words, tools without emotions are the most standard ninja templates, but before ninjas become tools, they are first and foremost individuals, as long as they are people, no one can completely erase their feelings.
"Hokage-sama......"
Seeing that the ape was silent, Mitarai Zixiao couldn't help but speak, but was interrupted before he finished speaking.
"I don't blame you, this mission can be said to be a failure, but it can also be said to be a success. Because you gave the child bonds, you taught the child the will to fire! You're doing a great job! ”
Sarutobi raised his head and said with a smile, "This is the real Konoha ninja." ”
"Thank you, Hokage-sama!"
"You don't need to thank me, it's just that since that kid has awakened Shui Wuyue's blood inheritance, the teacher I arranged for him before is not suitable. Watergate is excellent and I trust him a lot, but I experienced last night's ......"
"What do you mean?"
"The new lead teacher must be very familiar with the child, and there must be a bond between them."
"Konoha and Kamishinobi, who are very familiar with Duke?" Mitarai Zixiao had a sense of foreboding.
"Haven't you always had?" Ape Fei Sun slashed the fox and smiled: "Although the identity is not suitable, it is not a problem. Extraordinary moments, there are naturally extraordinary ways! ”
————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
"From today onwards, I will be your Shangnin Instructor." Mitarai Zixiao's face was expressionless and languishing. Just now, his dark head Mitarai Zixiao was removed, and the minister's position was temporarily replaced by the deputy minister, who was fully responsible for the size of the dark department. He was demoted to a special adviser to the Dark Ministry, and he was still in name.
Say yes and don't blame? Where has the basic trust between people gone? The other two in the team are the youngest son of the Hokage and the daughter of the current temporary head of the Dark Department, so powerful, so powerful, plus the adopted son of the former Minister of the Dark Department, a good second-generation combination. This kid is really a pit, my knee has been crushed and fractured, and I am afraid that my future life will be over on my knees!
On the rooftop, a purple-haired middle-aged man wearing a ninja vest faced the Hokage Rock, and the corners of his eyes were full of tears. Hokage-sama, am I here to be a babysitter? The ninjutsu of these two imps is enough for them to learn for a lifetime, and they really need me to teach ninjutsu?
"The first time we met, I'm Konoha Kamishinobi, Mitarai Zixiao!"
Duke looked at the purple-haired decadent man in front of him in a daze, and muttered in his heart. It shouldn't be, you are usually very busy, how can you still have time to lead the team? If you don't do your job properly, you don't have to worry about your job.
Just now, amid Asma's cheers, Aida-sensei announced that Duke, Asma, and Red had formed a new team, and then they were taken to the rooftop by the zombie-faced purple-haired teacher.
"The leading teacher and the guardian are the same person, so I'm not at a loss? Teacher Shangnin, who has excellent conduct, I want it so much! Duke looked at the sky and said worriedly.
"This is a man I know, and I often drink tea at home with my dad...... And his surname is Mitarai ......," Asma whispered to the two of them, and then glared at Duke for a while.
"He's my adoptive father, and it's a sad story!" Duke waved his hand, disgusted.
"I see! But he doesn't seem to be motivated, does it matter? "Red is worried, it's already terrible to have two strange guys in the team, but I didn't expect the teacher to be even more unreliable.
"......" Mihandi Zixiao. Today's kids are really ...... Can I hit someone? I guess it works!
"First of all, let's introduce ourselves! For example, things you like, things you hate, and dreams and hobbies, so that everyone can better understand. Mitarai Zixiao clapped his hands in spirit, and recalled the attention of the whispering trio: "Let's start with the teacher, I will start first!" ”
"As I said just now, my name is Mitarai Zixiao, that's right, I'm Duke's adoptive father, and I don't have anything I particularly like, but what I hate is ...... Duke, dreams and hobbies are confidential and not advised. ”
"......" Duke. Except for hating me, the rest is the same as not saying, how much you hate me!
"......" Asma and Red. Except knowing that your family environment is complex, and not knowing anything else, makes sense in this introduction?
"Then let's start on the right-hand side and introduce them one by one!"
"My name is Sunset Red, and my favorite food is mustard octopus, and the food I hate is sweets, such as cakes. The dream is to become a powerful female ninja like Tsunade-sama.,Hobbies...... I guess I'm learning illusion! "Red is the first to introduce, and the timid look is quite cute.
"It turns out that Red hates sweets, and I never knew it...... No wonder she threw the cake into the trash last time, which made me sad for several days, and it turned out to be the wrong gift. Asma took out a small notebook from her cutting bag and recorded every word Red said.
"I don't think Red threw your cake in the trash, not entirely because he had a sweet tooth." Duke looked at the small notebook in Obito's hand and whispered.
"How?"
"Hong's tutor is very strict, usually polite to others, even if she hates cakes, she won't throw them into a trash in front of you, it's not cakes that she hates...... It's you, right? ”
“……”
Asma looked desperate when she heard this, but she soon had high morale, and stood up under Zixiao's reminder and said, "My name is Ape Fei Asma, and I like ......."
Asma secretly glanced at the red next to him, and when he saw the other party's gaze, he immediately didn't squint, and continued: "The food I like is sausages, and the food I hate is sweets, especially cakes." Dreams...... It's with the girl you like...... Play shogi together. ”
Play shogi with the girl you like...... What a dream of purity! Duke wondered what he would do if he was with the girl he liked. It also needs to be thought, what else can you do but be a girl?
"Hmm...... Yes! Shogi is a good hobby! Zi Xiaoyan couldn't help but praise him, his heart is worthy of being the son of three generations, and he has a family history. I started flirting with girls at a young age, but the level was a little worse.
"My name is Mitarai Duke, and I don't have anything particularly like or hate, when it comes to dreams...... It doesn't seem to be much, as for hobbies...... It is also diverse. ”
"......" red, don't you only know your name? It's like a family, and the style of self-introduction is the same.
"......" Asma, although I can't understand it, seems to be very powerful.
"......" Zixiao, in the future, even during the day, you will have to face this pit, and the time of being pitted will be multiplied by two, as soon as I think of this, the head wind begins to attack!
"Ahem!" The scene was embarrassed for a while, and Zixiao coughed lightly twice, ending the cold scene.
"Everyone knows each other in the introduction just now, so from today onwards, the Zixiao class will be officially established!" Zixiao got up and walked to the Konoha training ground with the three of them: "Today we have a task that must be completed, a task that only our Zixiao class can complete." ”
"Already have a mission? Great, what kind of mission, assassinate the three generations of Hokage? Asma said excitedly.
"It's just acting, it's not such a dangerous mission, and besides, it's impossible for Konoha ninjas to assassinate Hokage-sama...... Don't say that again! Zixiao forced a smile and said that the bear child's words put a lot of pressure on him, although sometimes he wanted to do it.
"What? It's boring! Asma said unhappily.
The four of them talked as they walked, and soon came to the exercise ground, and after going deeper, stopped by a small river.
"There are two bells in my hand, and your task is to snatch them from me before dark, and there are three of you, and I have only two bells in my hand. This means that one of the three of you will be judged a failed mission. Those who fail will go back to school to repeat their studies, which means that at least one person will be eliminated, and of course all three will be eliminated. Zixiao tied the two bells around his waist, put away his smile, and said solemnly: "If you don't have the determination to kill me, you won't be able to grab the bells, and there is no mercy in the ninja's battle." ”
"But......" Hong hurriedly pointed to the forehead guard on his head and asked, "Haven't we already become registered shinobi?" ”
"As a shinobi instructor, I have the right to veto your ninja status."
"How so?" Asma was startled and gritted her teeth. finally passed the graduation assessment, and was in the same class as Hong, if he was really eliminated, the father of the family ...... Even if you fight for your life, you must not be eliminated.
Duke scratched his head, without the slightest panic, the routine of grabbing the bell can be said to be in the same vein in Konoha. Jiraiya and Naruto have experienced it, and the purpose of the mission is not to snatch the bell from the hand of the shinobi teacher, but to show himself in front of the previous teacher. The difference is that Sarutobi pays more attention to the basic strength of the team, while Kakashi values the unity of the team more.
"Teacher, is it okay to use kunai?" Duke suddenly spoke, and while attracting Zixiao's attention, he shook out the kunai in his hand, and his hands quickly sealed.
The breeze swept by, a big hand was placed on Duke's shoulder, and Zixiao said: "I knew you would do this, boy, don't worry, there is time, you can only attack when I say start!" ”
So fast...... When did you get behind me?
Duke let go of the seal of his hand, he couldn't believe it, it was clear that he hadn't been so fast last time, was it to release the water? If the upper shinobi are all at this speed, how fast does the golden flash be?
"So fast!" Asma and Hong looked back at Zixiao, swallowed their saliva, their eyes couldn't keep up at all, could they really grab the bell?
"Let's go!"
