Chapter 140: The most difficult thing to accept is to see that people younger than themselves are more capable than themselves

In the Hokage's office, Tatsuma and Mizumon, who were specially told to wear only dark single clothes, received their own shinobi certificates and vests, and the two of them put the smallest vest on their bodies, which also fits quite well.

Chenma took off the forehead guard that was tied to his left arm and put it on his head, and the curvature of the forehead guard was a little uncomfortable, but considering that he would take pictures for a while, he could only do this first.

After putting it on, Tatsuma moved his body, and the vest made after countless generations of ninjas summed up does not restrict the movement of the body, and the various pockets on the vest are also extremely convenient for combat.

Even the small and medium-sized scroll slots are also reserved, the waistcoat is heavy and stiff, it should be lined with some armor, and the collars on both sides are also very high, blocking the necks on both sides and the back.

Tatsuma quickly got used to the vest, and then looked at the water gate who was constantly rubbing the vest on his body with a dull smile on his face, and said with a smile: "If there is a younger Shinobi in the village in the future, this vest may be too big." ”

The two of them wore the smallest size, and they both fit until there was a gap of two or three fingers on their chests, if they were a little thinner, this vest would be too big, and when Shui Men heard this, he just nodded, he didn't hear what Qingchen Ma said, and he was still immersed in the joy of realizing the freedom of the vest.

The female ninja who distributed the supplies to them said with a smile: "It's already great to be able to advance to the middle ninja at the age of ten, and I haven't seen a middle ninja younger than you."

However, if there is really such a talented child, the village will also customize a vest for him. ”

After speaking, the female ninja took out another list, handed it to Tatsuma, and said: "This is the list of materials that Zhongnin can apply for, in addition to two sets of daily vests, two sets of linings, two sets of warm linings for winter and four pairs of foot equipment, you see what else is needed." ”

After being promoted to the middle ninja, in a sense, there will be no need to spend money on clothing, because the middle ninja has not yet achieved true freedom of dressing, and if it is not necessary to perform tasks, you must wear a middle ninja vest.

The lining is a bit more casual, but most of the shinobi will also choose the dark blue or black lining from Konoha, after all, it is good quality and comfortable to wear, and it doesn't cost money.

After being awarded the title of Special Shinobi, or the title of Shinobi, you have real freedom of dressing, you only need to wear a ninja forehead guard, of course, you can also choose to wear a uniform, or apply for a custom uniform that suits you better, the latter two are also free.

In addition, after the uniforms and armor applied for from the village are damaged, they can also apply for replacement, and depending on the degree of damage, the village will also choose to recycle or send new ones directly, after all, sometimes they are damaged to the point that they cannot be recycled.

And now this list in Chenma's hand is the materials that Zhongnin can apply for for free, and the types are beyond Chenma's imagination, there are several kinds of gloves alone.

There are glossy isolation gloves that are more suitable for medical ninjas or ninjas who are good at poisons, half-fingered gloves for combat, or gloves with armor on the back of the hands.

In addition, there is also armor to choose from, but the armor has been drawn a few lines, and only wartime armor is left to choose from, just like the one worn by Sannin when he became famous in war.

As for the stacked hanging armor and the new stacked hanging armor, they were all crossed out, presumably outdated and unreasonable in design, and were eliminated.

There are also some special uniforms, but they all have suffixes at the end, such as seal classes can be claimed, medical classes can be claimed, etc., as well as raincoats, cloaks, etc., which are suitable for various venues.

Tatsuma looked at it and asked for four pairs of gloves with armor, two sets of wartime armor, and two sets of raincoats, all of which were double, one for him and one for Mizumon, and handed the list back to the female ninja after choosing.

The female ninja nodded, Chenma's request was not excessive, she had even seen ten sets of eight sets at a time, she would directly refuse this, after all, the wool was too much, and the sheep would also hurt.

"Do you still have a task to explain to you? You can go to Lord Sandaime first, and I'll go to the treasury to prepare the supplies you need, and you can come and get them later. ”

The female ninja said with a smile, Chen Ma nodded, pulled the water gate that was still sniffing the collar of the vest and left, and said to the water gate that was not interested: "Don't smell it, I don't know how long I have the vest in stock, if I have lung disease, I have to be cured." ”

Hearing this, Mizumon stopped his strange-looking movements, and was reminded by Tatsuma that he finally knew what the smell was on the vest, which was the unique smell of new clothes, mixed with the smell of musty.

One-size-fits-all, small-size, and plus-size uniforms are consumed quickly, after all, most ninjas manage their bodies very well, and with normal development, they also use these three sizes of uniforms.

But the two of them are the smallest size, and there are basically no candidates, so they don't know how long the inventory has been, and Tatsuma has decided to go back and wash all the uniforms of his hair three times, and then expose them to the sun for two days.

In particular, the foot equipment is said to be open-toed sandals, but if the shoes that have been stored for so long are not cleaned, what should I do if my feet are infected?

Tatsuma took the water gate, first went to another office to take pictures, and then went upstairs to the Hokage's office, and before he could go in, Tatsuma smelled a strong smell of smoke, and his eyes began to feel uncomfortable, choking on the smoke.

Obviously, the old smoking gun in the house, I don't know how long he smoked, generally speaking, smoking so many cigarettes in a short period of time is either drinking and playing cards, or has a lot of troubles.

Just when Chenma probed his brain, wondering if he should find a more suitable time to come over again, the ape Fei Ri inside opened his mouth and said, "Is it Chenma and Watergate?" In. ”

The two of them walked into the Hokage's office, and after entering, Tatsuma looked at a dark corner of the office with pity, and he sensed that there was someone there, probably the dark part of the guard.

He couldn't stand the smoke when he came, and the guard ninja...

"Hokage-sama." *2

After saying hello, Sarutobi beckoned and motioned for the two of them to come over, he wanted to see the future of these two Konoha but... The office was a little dim and smoky, and Sarutobi found himself unable to see clearly.

He got up slowly, walked to the window, and the moment he opened the window, a large amount of smoke rolled out of the room when the air was replaced, and it was estimated that people who didn't know saw this scene and thought that the Hokage's office was on fire.

When the smoke cleared a little, Ape Fei Ri saw the two of them clearly, and looking at the appearance of the two of them wearing vests, he smiled and said, "Okay! Very energetic! ”

After he finished speaking, he walked back to his desk and sat down, took out two scrolls, and said, "This is the first task given to you by the village after you were promoted to Zhongnin, are you confident that you can complete it?" ”

"Yes!"

Mizumon snorted, which startled Tatsuma, he had never seen Mizuto so excited, but when he came back to his senses, Tatsuma also nodded.

Looking at the scroll in the hand of Sarutobi Slash, they also thought about whether their first task was to fight against the Sand Shinobi or the Rain Shinobi, or to be transferred to the north to cooperate with the Uchiha and Hachiki Sakumo to guard against the Land of Thunder.

But after taking over the mission scroll, Tatsuma found that his conjecture was very wrong, because their first mission was not to go to the battlefield, but... Be an examiner.

In fact, it is not very accurate to say that it is an examiner, after all, they have no right to decide, and the specific task requirement is to cooperate with the ninja school graduation assessment and test the candidate's actual combat level.

They are not qualified to eliminate candidates, and can only give four scores according to the candidate's performance: S (beyond the lower forbearance), A (excellent lower forbearance), B (lower forbearance), and C (not reaching the lower forbearance).

Seeing the strange expressions of the two of them, Ape Fei Ri said: "Thanks to the two of you, this batch of people who have advanced to the middle ninja is less than a hundred, and it will make little difference to the battlefield. ”

Chenma and Mizumen both heard the ridicule in Ape Feiri's words, and the two of them beat the people who participated in the Zhongnin assessment at the same time as "worthless", and nearly a hundred people were promoted, which was already a relaxation of the standard out of wartime considerations.

Both of them scratched their heads embarrassedly, and Sarutobi didn't really care, but continued: "So the village plans to wait until the ninja school graduates, and then let the front line Orochimaru come back and lead you to the battlefield."

But at present, there are not many ninjas who stay in the village, who are qualified and capable of testing and considering the ninja school students, and the teachers of the ninja school can measure their theoretical and ninjutsu skills, but the actual combat... They have been out of the battlefield for too long.

Both of you have been through the battlefield and know how good the ninjas of the latest other villages are, and... Both of you are younger than many graduates, and beating them can dampen the excitement of their upcoming graduation a little.

After graduation, these children are about to go on a mission on the battlefield, and although they will not be directly involved in the battle, they must be vigilant at all times, so they must remain calm, and excessive emotions will only harm them. ”

"Hokage-sama, I see."

Tatsuma nodded, understanding the intention of the ape flying sun, and Mizuto also said solemnly, "Hokage-sama, we will definitely take this mission seriously." ”

Sarutobi nodded with satisfaction, took out two more scrolls, and said, "Speaking of which, I still owe you a ninjutsu, this is the ninjutsu scroll of the Dark Technique, which should have been taught to you personally, but... I can't spare time. ”

"Hokage-sama has a lot of opportunities, so you don't have to be distracted by the two of us."

Seeing that Sarutobi took out the ninjutsu scroll, Tatsuma also said sensibly, and Sarutobi became more and more satisfied, and said, "As for the other scroll... It's the Fire Escape Fire Dragon Bullet technique of my Ape Flying Clan.

The rest of the people who practice this technique must start with the Haoyan technique, but with the talent of the two of you and the cultivation of Huo Dun, there should be no problem in mastering this technique directly.

This technique works well with other retreat techniques, and it has many miraculous effects, so you should learn it well. ”

"Thank you, Hokage-sama." *2

After the two of them finished gratefully, Chen immediately stepped forward and took the two scrolls, then returned to their original positions, turned to look at the water gate, and the water gate thought about it, and first picked up the scroll of the Fire Escape Fire Dragon Bullet Technique.

Shuimen knew that Tatsuma must have preferred to practice the Dark Technique earlier, after all, Tatsuma did not lack the Five Elements Retreat Technique, after all, he had inherited a whole treasure trove of knowledge between the Thousand Hands.

In fact, in the past few days, the water gate has also been pulled by Chen, and I have seen some of the escape techniques collected between the Thousand Hands, but in addition to the two attribute escape techniques of earth and water, the number of other ninjutsu collected between the Thousand Hands is not very large.

And many of the ninjutsu in it are too old, and there are more optimized versions on the "market", or newer and more comprehensive techniques, so they don't help the water gate much, and the water gate is only a symbolic selection of a few.

And the two kinds of earth and water, not only a large amount, but also a large number of their own experiences and notes are recorded between thousands of hands, which is the real wealth, but it is a pity that... Watergate doesn't have these two kinds of chakra, so you can't learn it.

"Okay, go back and prepare well, don't lose to those candidates who take the graduation assessment, otherwise you will ruin the village's plans."

Sarutobi said with a smile, Tatsuma and Mizuto nodded, left the Hokage's office, and went to collect their supplies.
