Konoha's Strongest Empress

Chapter 73 73. Watergate's Request

Uchiha territory, bamboo forest.

"Why is Quanmei here?" Itachi, who came to the bamboo forest for training early, asked after seeing Quanmei following behind Qiying.

"Of course you came here for training, are you an idiot?" Qi Ying muttered with her hands on her waist, and whispered to Quan Mei behind her: "Quan Mei, hurry up and say hello to Itachi, from now on you two Let's train together."

"En." After Quanmei nodded, she timidly walked out from behind Qi Ying and came to Itachi.

"Itachi, good morning." Facing her sweetheart, Quan Mei looked a little shy, her small face was blushing.

"Good morning." Itachi's reaction was completely opposite, with a paralyzed face, he replied unmoved.

Alas, this Itachi, I don't even know how Quanmei fell in love with him.

But this kind of thing can't be rushed, let the young people take their time.

After Qi Ying clapped her hands, she shouted to the two of them: "Okay, the greeting is done, it's time to start practicing, I will tell you the content of today's training, I will let the shadow clone supervise you, please work hard. "As he spoke, he created a shadow clone.

"Do you have another mission to go out?" Itachi walked to a smooth stone and sat down, speaking with a displeased face.

"It's not a mission. The water gate summoned me to go there."

"Fourth Hokage..." Itachi closed his eyes and muttered for a moment, then snorted coldly, got up and walked to the target and began to throw Kunai.

Is this guy angry?

After Qiying glanced at Itachi curiously, she whispered in Quanmei's ear: "Remember, build more relationships with Itachi while practicing. As a master, that's all you can do to help you, thanks!"

After the words fell, Qi Ying turned into a ball of cherry blossoms and flew out of the bamboo forest with the wind, leaving behind Quan Mei who was flushed and still in a daze.

The screen turned, and Minato, who was working, saw the cherry blossoms in front of him. He was used to this sight and immediately knew Qiying's arrival.

"Qiying, here we come."

"Well, I came here quickly when I heard you summon me." Qi Ying, who appeared from the cherry blossom group, put down her right hand and looked at the desk.

On the desk was a pile of documents piled up into a mountain, all of which were important documents that Hokage had to review in person before making a decision.

Hokage's work is really endless. It feels like there are mountains of documents on the table all the time.

"Qi Ying, where did you go a while ago?" Minato, who was correcting the document, asked disapprovingly, and glanced at himself during the process.

"Ah?? Me? Am I not in Konoha Village?" After hearing Minato's words, Qi Ying was slightly startled.

Minato discovered his use of the shadow clone?Impossible, Minato doesn't have a pupil technique that can see through shadow clones.

Seeing that Minato didn't speak, Qi Ying sighed a long time, and said with a smile on her face: "You found out?"

"Of course, having been with you for so long, it's still very easy to recognize your shadow clone." After Minato smiled, he put the pen in his hand on the table and spread out a scroll on the table.

"A few days ago, Konoha received an entrusted task. A girl named Fuji Fuyuki was abducted in the street in the border city of the Land of Fire. The prisoner was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl whose identity was unknown. Now entrust People asked Konoha to rescue that girl." After Minato finished speaking, he closed the scroll and looked at himself with a smile on his face.

"The time this girl disappeared is very close to the time you left Konoha, Qi Ying, do you know what's going on?"

……

"Sarcasm, I don't know either. The criminal who abducted the little girl on the street must be too courageous, hahaha."

At this moment, I can only get through by pretending to be stupid.

After staring at him silently for half a minute, Minato sighed helplessly, without even thinking about it, the girl who abducted Fuji Fuyuki was Qi Ying in front of her.

"How is the little girl now?"

"It seems that I still can't hide it from you. She's doing well, and she's back where she should go." Qi Ying curled her lips helplessly.

In the future, don't use the shadow clone to fool Minato, this guy knows himself too well.

"That's good, that's right, Qi Ying, here is something you need to do." Minato didn't intend to delve into this matter, and instead took out two documents similar to the resumes of the characters.

These two documents contain information about Itachi and Izumi.

Judging from the data, Itachi and Izumi have graduated from the ninja school, but the strange thing is that Itachi who passed the Zhongnin exam is not shown as a Zhongnin in this data, and both of them belong to ninjas without teams.

"Although Itachi Uchiha passed the Chunin exam, he took the exam because of your request, Qi Sakura. To become a Chunin, you must have an instructor's recommendation and a certain number of missions to complete."

"Well, I know that, but why doesn't Uchiha Izumi have an instructor?" Qi Ying looked at Izumi's data card in doubt. Generally speaking, students who graduated from ninja school will be assigned to a certain responsibility soon It's right in the Jonin team.

After hearing his own words, Minato sighed first, then continued.

"Originally Uchiha Izumi was assigned to Uchiha Itachi's team, but Uchiha Itachi participated in the Zhongnin Exam, so the personnel in the team had to be reassigned. Under the second assignment, these two people became Duo Based on the strength of the students, it is currently impossible to find a suitable mentor in the role of Jonin."

Qi Ying immediately understood Minato's words.

The strength of Itachi, who shined in the Chunin Exam, is obvious to all. He is not at the same level as the students who graduated from the ninja school, and the Sharingan has also reached the stage of Ergouyu. Such a talented student must be an ordinary ninja. There was nothing left to teach him.

Furthermore, if you want to teach the ninjas of the Uchiha clan, you must be familiar with some fighting methods of the Uchiha clan, such as the use of sharing eyes. This alone can make many ninjas confused.

"You mean to let me take over this class and become Itachi and Izumi's teacher?"

"Yes, if it's you who belong to the Uchiha clan, it will definitely make the two of them grow up."

"But isn't the general team a four-person team?" Qi Ying asked doubtfully as she picked up the data cards of the two.

Generally speaking, one of the purposes of forming a ninja team is to let the members of the group understand the importance of teamwork. Three-person combat has always been the best way. Let's act together.

"The current situation can't find another suitable candidate, so I can only do this, so I asked you to come here." After Minato stood up, he walked to the window and looked at Muye Village outside, with a dignified tone. Said.

"The current combat effectiveness of Konoha Village is not as good as before. Although the war has come to an end, there is no guarantee that such things will happen in the future. As Hokage, I must use various methods to cultivate Konoha's combat effectiveness. Qiying, you Should understand me."

"Ah."

After Qi Ying nodded, she put the resume card on the table, and looked out the window with Minato.

That's right, Minato has become Hokage, in order to protect the village, it is necessary to cultivate a strong fighting force, on this point I have a consensus with Minato.

It's like the base I established in Snow Country now, in order to fight against the future Akatsuki organization and those unknown enemies.

The Otsutsuki family.

And Itachi and Izumi's potential is also very clear to him, to cultivate talented ninjas must be done in a different way.

"Understood, leave this matter to me."

"Please, Qiying."
