Chapter 13 Mission
At nightfall, Hisashi was still working in the Hokage Building.
No matter how big or small, it has to be reported to the Hokage, and the Hokage approves before the arrangement can be implemented, which is a tradition that Konoha has had since a long time.
Moreover, this tradition has continued since the time of the first Hokage, and it also shows the authority that the Hokage should have.
Therefore, throughout the year, it is common for the day to have little free time to rest, and to continue working after dark.
In addition, it is the graduation season of the ninja school recently, and it is also a top priority to deal with the new Shinobi who have officially entered Konoha, because these are the new blood of Konoha in the future, and they must be taken seriously.
"Hokage-sama, I'm sorry to bother you so late."
A man walked in through the door, it was none other than Iruka Umino, who was working as a teacher at a ninja school.
"It's Iruka, it's okay, I just haven't gotten off work. Is there something wrong with you coming here so late? ”
Hizaki put down the document he was about to work on and looked up at Iruka who appeared in his office.
"Nothing, I would like to ask, what is the status of the students' assessments? Although tomorrow we can also know which group did not pass, but ......"
Iruka scratched her head, looking embarrassed.
Today is an important day for each group to guide the shinobi and conduct graduation exercises.
Iruka, who also came from her student days, naturally knows that the so-called graduation exam is just a cover for people's eyes.
The real exam is a graduation drill conducted by the guidance of each group.
It is only through the graduation exercises held by each group of instructors that the students can be said to have truly become shinobi.
Otherwise, it's just an assessment of the doppelganger technique, which is too simple. It's too much to underestimate the ninja collective.
"I see, are you relieved?"
Hizai nodded.
As for Iruka's temperament, Hizai is very clear.
is a kind man who is consistent on the outside and on the inside.
Both among colleagues and students, it is quite popular.
Undoubtedly, it is an excellent shinobi who has inherited the will of fire.
Sometimes, though, it's a fact that it's too emotional.
However, no ninja is perfect, and Iruka's qualities are enough to inspire trust. In this regard, he is already worthy of being a Konoha ninja.
"Yes."
"It doesn't matter if I tell you in advance, the number of people who passed the assessment this year is one-third more than the previous year. The shinobi, who was in charge of the graduation exercise, was also satisfied with the teamwork skills of the students. Even if a student who does not pass the test repeats his studies for a year and continues to work hard next year, it will not be a problem to graduate normally. ”
Anyway, they have suffered a loss, and they have more information than the students who graduated for the first time, and they will definitely try their best to hone the teamwork ability of the team.
In the world of ninjas, it is very dangerous to fight alone.
The ninjutsu used by ninjas has a variety of abilities, and sometimes, the level of the ninja alone cannot be used to determine the danger level of the enemy.
The secret techniques used by some middle ninjas are even more dangerous than those of upper ninjas.
The case of capsizing in the gutter because of carelessness is also common in the world of ninjas.
Because of this, in the game of ninja, team ability is often ranked above the ninja's individual ability.
If you don't realize this, it's hard for a ninja to survive in the ninja world.
Unless it's perfect, there is no so-called weakness in the ninja.
But...... Perfect, how can it exist?
As a doctor of ninjutsu, he has mastered the most ninjutsu and secret arts in the ninja world, and he doesn't dare to say that he is perfect, but he tries his best to eliminate the weaknesses in his body, so that the enemy has no way to start.
Therefore, teamwork is the first thing that students master after coming out of the ninja school, and it is also an important skill that must be learned.
"In this case, then I will be relieved."
Iruka patted her chest.
"Not only that, but the group Naruto is in was also rated B by their guidance and ninja. The overall score ranked second. ”
Hizai smiled slightly.
"Naruto, he was in the same group as Sasuke and Sakura, and I remember their guidance joshinobi, it seems to be Mr. Kakashi...... Did you get a B rating? ”
Iruka looked surprised.
Ninjas in the Shadows, although they are required to keep their information, but not all Ninjas in the Shadows need to protect their information.
Like Kakashi.
Because it's too famous, the second generation of Konoha White Fang, the head of Konoha Dark.
No matter how much you hide your identity, you can see the other party's very conspicuous silver-white hair, as well as the white tooth short knife behind it, and you can understand who the other party is.
That's why Iruka was surprised.
It's not easy to get an upper-middle evaluation from Kakashi.
At first, he was worried that Naruto's group would cripple at Kakashi's side.
"Well, that's right. Although Naruto's strength is still very immature, even I am surprised by the potential contained in his body. Of Konoha's shinobi, only Kakashi was able to stop him. ”
Iruka nodded.
In the list of Shinobi who instructed him, seeing Kakashi's name, Iruka knew Hitoki's intentions.
The power of the Nine-Tails is too terrifying, even if Naruto may not release the power of the Tailed Beast out of subjective will, but he must be on guard against one or two.
Kakashi is an insurance.
Even if the tailed beast goes berserk, it can be remedied in time.
"Not only Naruto, but the other two are also very good. Sasuke, who has inherited the bloodline of the Uchiha clan, is probably on par with Naruto's potential. And the Haruno Sakura ...... She has a good mind and is the first in every written test and the memory test. She is also a medical ninja herself, and can make up for the lack of logistics in the team. ”
"Sakura is indeed an excellent student."
Iruka nodded in agreement.
As Sakura's homeroom teacher, he often pays attention to this girl with an excellent brain.
"By the way, you said that Naruto is in the seventh class, and the second place with a B evaluation is the second place, then the first place is ......"
Iruka asked curiously.
"It was the 10th class, the Pig Deer Butterfly group, and Asma tested their teamwork and gave them the only A evaluation among the graduates this time. Among them, Nara Shikamaru already has the thinking ability of the leader of the middle ninja squad, but he still lacks some heat in terms of strength. ”
Hizai replied.
"Sure enough, it's the three of them."
Iruka wasn't too surprised, expecting the situation.
In the class he taught, the highest intelligence was Nara Shikamaru.
Although he usually seems to be a troublesome person, at critical moments, there is always an unexpected outstanding performance.
However, this is only in terms of teamwork ability, and the other party's ability is outstanding.
If purely in terms of strength, the number one overall ranking is still Sasuke.
"They're all excellent seedlings, Iruka, your worries are a bit unnecessary."
Hizai laughed.
"Yes. It's true that I'm worried too much, and I can't treat them as children anymore. ”
Iruka smiled wryly.
When I say this, I feel as if I'm already old, and I'm only in my twenties.
"In that case, I won't disturb your work, forgive me for taking the liberty tonight."
Iruka bowed slightly.
"It's okay, you came here because you were worried about them. Either way, they're all great students you've taught. ”
Hizai smiled unconcernedly.
Iruka left the office with a satisfied expression.
Once again, there was only one person left in the office, and he picked up a file.
It was in the afternoon that Kakashi presented his report.
A very comprehensive analysis of Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura was made.
After scanning the comprehensive analysis of the three of them above, Hizai picked up the cigarette stick, took a light puff, and spit out the smoke ring, his eyes deep.
Assigned the three of them together, there is actually some kind of fantasy in the heart of the day.
That's what he wants to create Konoha is the third elite unit capable of blitzkrieg guerrilla warfare.
The first generation was the White Fang Squad led by Hachiki Sakumo, who shone during the Second Ninja World War, successfully pinning down the main force of Sand Hidden Village from the side, resulting in the defeat of Sand Hide's lack of stamina and the signing of an armistice agreement.
The second generation is the fourth generation of Hokage wave feng shui gate, who has mastered the art of flying thunder god, and there is no ninja who can cooperate, so he becomes an army alone. But the Blitzkrieg ability, in a way, is especially above the White Fang Squad. Alone in the two battlefields of Yanyin and Yunyin, he was in the limelight for a while.
Third generation ...... Now is it.
With Kakashi as the captain, Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha, and Sakura Haruno are the three branches of the team.
In terms of configuration, it is very similar to the first-generation White Fang Squad.
The only thing lacking is the lack of strength and experience.
If the three of Naruto can grow up quickly, then, in addition to the Hokage, the root, and the three ninjas, there will be a fourth party to deter the existence of other countries.
In this way, to deal with the pressure brought by the country of ghosts in the world, Konoha will have a much better life.
It will no longer be as restrained as before, and it can even properly fight back against the country of ghosts, and slowly regain the prestige that the country of fire and Konoha have lost.
However, this is only a far way off.
However, Richo is confident and has created a second White Fang team.
Naruto's loyalty has been established and can be trusted to be conferred.
Sakura Haruno is a native of Konoha ninja and has no problems with loyalty.
Kakashi, who has followed four generations of Hokage and risked his life to rescue three shinobi, also does not have a crisis of trust.
The only problem lies with Sasuke Uchiha.
The Uchiha extermination incident was a thorn in Hichiha's heart after all.
After that incident, many ninja clans in the village held a secret meeting during that time, and they didn't know what they were discussing.
Among them, the Hyuga clan is the mainstay, and since then, some Hyuga clans have been in contact with the roots more and more frequently.
Although the Uchiha's extermination was not something he wanted to see, Root's actions at that time were an act that he silently acquiesced to.
In order to build a second White Fang team, it is necessary to return to Sasuke's loyalty to Konoha.
This matter is likely to require the guidance of the Itachi.
So, the truth about the extermination of the Uchiha clan ...... Let us sink into the darkness that no one will ever know.
It must not be made public, nor can it be admitted.
In this way, Sasuke Uchiha can only be Sasuke Uchiha of Konoha forever.
Thinking of this, Ri Chop felt that the burden on his body was getting heavier and heavier.

"Hinata's affairs, Hongshang Shinobu can do it yourself, there is no need to ask me for instructions."
In the main house of the Hyuga clan, the patriarch Hinata Hinata said indifferently to the visiting Konoha Shangnin Sunset.
It seems that he doesn't want to waste too much time on this kind of thing.
And Hong, who came to inquire about things, sighed slightly in his heart after hearing the words of the indifferent pair of children of Rizu, but still said: "Patriarch Rizu, I think with my ability, I ......"
"Since Hokage-sama has chosen you, then, Hinata will be your subordinate from today onwards, and the Hyuga clan will not interfere, and you don't need to ask. You can just treat Hinata like a normal ninja. ”
Having said that, it is estimated that no shinobi will really treat the eldest daughter of the Hyuga clan as an ordinary ninja.
As Konoha's bloodline limit ninja clan, the Hyuga clan actually has certain privileges in many ways.
For example, you can train ninjas yourself, and then apply for forehead protection directly from the top and distribute it to your clansmen, and there is no need to go through a school institution to obtain graduation recognition.
Many ninja tribes have similar privileges, and they will arrange for some of their clansmen to attend schools, while others will conduct internal training to provide reliable new blood to the dark side.
Among all the new generations of ninja heirs, Hinata is one of the most special people.
Just the daughter of the Hyuga clan and the future heir of the clan, in terms of status, is still above the red ninja.
It's just that Hong didn't hear from Rizu's mouth that the other party had any attitude of attaching importance to his eldest daughter, but instead seemed to have given up on his eldest daughter, so he arbitrarily disposed of it by others.
For the Hyuga family, Red has also heard a little.
The patriarch Hinata Hinata has two daughters, the eldest daughter, Hinata, and the second daughter, Hanabi.
Compared with the eldest daughter, the second daughter's talent seems to be very remarkable, and she is highly valued by Hitoku.
Regarding the issue of the heir of the clan family, it seems that there are also plans to abolish the elder and the younger.
In the hierarchical Hyuga clan, the problem of abolishing the elders and establishing the young is far less simple than it seems, and the resistance it faces is also very great.
But these are just hearsay after all, and the real situation, Red doesn't understand.
Now, however, she is somewhat believing in the rumors.
Hinata Hinata, the patriarch of the Hyuga clan, really doesn't pay much attention to the eldest daughter Hinata, otherwise Hinata would not have been assigned to her group, but returned directly to the Hyuga clan, not participating in any graduation exercises, but by the elite of the clan Shangnin, who was personally taught.
On the contrary, Hanabi, the second daughter of school age, seems to have stayed in the clan all the time, receiving training from elite ninjas, and did not go to the ninja school to study.
This has obviously been cultivated with the second daughter as the real heir.
Thinking of the white-eyed girl with a weak personality, Red sighed in his heart and felt pity.
was completely regarded as a useless outcast by his father.
"Is there anything else, Shinobu Akami?"
Hizo's tone was indifferent, and there was naturally a natural majesty in his eyes.
This is a kind of momentum that only people who have been in the top position for a long time have.
Just a simple conversation with such a person, Hong felt a lot of pressure.
"No, but with all due respect, I'm good at illusion, so I'm afraid I can't give Hinata much advice. This can cause Hinata to grow very slowly, and it will not be able to satisfy you, the Hizoku Patriarch. ”
"Regarding this, I will let the clan guide Hinata. As for the mission, I ask you to take care of one or two. This level of patience must be something that can be done easily. ”
Hinata responds.
The subtext is that he doesn't care whether Hinata grows fast or slow, he is already planning to give up on the other party, and he can teach whatever he wants.
That's what he meant to tell Red.
"I see."
Red Heart was a little unhappy.
Compared with the guidance of Shangnin, the other party treats her as a nanny.
However, considering the prestige of the Hyuga clan, Red did not show dissatisfaction on the surface.
This kind of family is really impersonal.
Thinking of the Inuzuka and the oil girl clan that they have visited in the daytime, it is easier for people to get close, and the Hyuga clan gives people an extremely cold feeling, both externally and internally.
There was a sense of depression that she couldn't explain, and it was backing up in her heart.
It is precisely because it is a wealthy family that it is so unapproachable.
◎
"When are you going to overhear there?"
A cold voice came from behind.
Hinata was taken aback, and when she turned around and saw the fireworks that appeared in front of her, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fireworks...... When were you here? ”
Although her younger sister Hanabi is only seven or eight years old, her white pupils, as if she can see through people's hearts, make Hinata dare not look at these eyes.
"It was here in the first place, it was you who were too slow to react."
Hanabi glared at Hinata.
"Is that so?"
Hinata was a little surprised.
Hinata couldn't help but be discouraged by the fact that she was here in the first place, and she didn't know anything about it.
This kind of fireworks has completely surpassed himself in terms of strength.
"You're eavesdropping on other people's conversations here, which doesn't fit the Hyuga family's tutor."
The place where Hanabi and Hinata are located is behind the side door of the living room, and through the crack in the door, a majestic figure can be seen standing there.
Hinata Hinata.
The person who was talking to him just now was Konoha Village's special Shinobi Sunset.
It is also her sister Hinata Hinata's current guidance on the shinobi.
Because of Hinata's identity, the other party came to visit and asked for advice on the attitude of the Hyuga family.
But obviously, the majesty and indifference written on Hizu's face made the other party's heart gloomy and left.
I guess I'm already complaining about the Hyuga clan in my heart.
Women are careful-eyed creatures.
Hanabi, who is also a woman, naturally understands this. Although she is not a woman yet, just a girl.
"What about me, aren't you also eavesdropping on the conversation between my father and Teacher Hong here?"
Hinata glanced at her younger sister Hanabi, who was a big ghost, and retorted slightly.
"I came here to ask for advice if I have a problem with cultivation, and it is inconvenient for guests to enter here, so I have to wait here for a while."
Hanabi responded with a serious attitude.
"Then I...... Me too......"
Hinata stammered in reply.
Hanabi stared directly at Hinata's white eyes, and Hinata subconsciously looked away to avoid direct contact with Hanabi's gaze.
"I don't feel good."
Hanabi said suddenly.
"What?"
"That Shangnin, who was severely lectured, was obviously speaking for you, but you can only stare here, and you can't do anything."
Hanabi seems to have seen through Hinata's thoughts.
Hinata fell silent slightly, as if acquiescing.
"Father...... It's a bit excessive, Mr. Hong is a good person......"
Hinata whispered a defense.
Although it was only a short one-day contact, Hinata could feel the care of Sunset Red for herself, and she was a very gentle and kind elder from the heart.
Let Hinata feel the warmth after a long absence.
In the Hyuga family, her impression of the elders is majestic and solemn.
It's as if you have to maintain the tradition of the Hyuga clan at all times, and you can't be looked down upon.
It's tiring to make that gesture, but I can't let go of the glory on my body.
Hinata finds this kind of life boring.
"Then your guidance is really good, dare to come to the Hyuga clan single-handedly...... However, the will of a clan will not be transferred according to the will of the other party. I guess she won't have the idea of visiting the Hyuga clan in the future. ”
Hanabi smiled slightly.
But Hinata felt a hint of coldness from Hanabi's smile, and the other party was not smiling.
Something specific, Hinata can't say.
Since she was a child, she felt that her sister was a little too mature.
Knows a lot of things she doesn't understand.
In terms of cultivation, you only need to dial it a little, and you can easily draw inferences from one another.
Whether it is soft boxing or white eyes, the other party can quickly master and use it freely.
Because of this, she couldn't guess what her sister Huahuo was thinking about in her heart.
"The ......"
Hinata hesitated.
"What do you want to say?"
Hanabi raised an eyebrow.
"I think it's better for you to tell your father that it's better to go to a ninja school."
"Why do you say that?"
Hanabi gave Hinata a strange look.
"Because if you always see you cultivating alone at home, you will definitely feel lonely, without your peers by your side. If you're in school, you can make a lot of friends, and after graduation, you'll be able to mentor the team. ”
This comes from Hinata's heart.
Every time she saw the back of Hanabi practicing alone at home, she always felt that the other party was too unsociable.
If this continues, Hanabi may not have a friend to talk to until he grows up.
As an older sister, he naturally has to take care of Hanabi's physical and mental health. You can't let the other party be lonely like this for a long time.
"I think this kind of life is good, and I don't need to change."
"How so?"
Hinata glared.
"Cultivating to become stronger is the joy of life that I find now. As for the loneliness you mentioned, I don't have a social need for the time being, so the loneliness problem doesn't exist with me at all. And also...... I don't need a school kind of place to prove myself, it's too noisy. ”
Hanabi imitates the tone of an adult and preaches Hinata in turn.
It's not like a child.
With that, Hanabi left Hinata's side and walked towards Hizoku.
"Really, it's just a child, pretending to be an adult......"
Hinata's thoughts about enjoying being alone in Hanabi's heart are incomprehensible.
Seeing cultivation and becoming stronger as his life interest is simply a weird person.
This kind of fireworks always gives her the illusion that the other party seems to be carrying some extremely important mission.
