People are in Konoha, the start level is full

In front of the window of the Hokage's office, the third generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen clasped his hands behind his back, looked at the prosperous scene outside the window, and sighed: "Wherever the leaves are flying, the fire is also endless. The fire will continue to illuminate the village, and let the new life The leaves are sprouting.”

It's the same thing again.Orochimaru, who was wearing a green vest and standing with his hands hanging down in front of the Hokage's desk, narrowed his eyes impatiently when he heard this. He said that if he had time to listen to these truths, he might as well go back to study ninjutsu, so he went straight to the point and asked: "Saru Teacher Fei, what is your purpose in coming to me this time?"

The Sandaime turned his head and stared at him. Seeing the impatience in his words and expression, he sighed inwardly, but on the surface he just asked: "Orochimaru, Naoki is about to graduate from the ninja school. You should know this." Is it something?"

Orochimaru said thoughtfully: "Naoki is Tsunade's younger brother. Of course I know about him. So, sensei, you came to me because you want me to be his mentoring Jonin?"

The Sandaime nodded and said: "Yes, Naoki is a good seedling. Although his grades in the ninja school are only mid-range, his chakra, physical fitness and other talents are very outstanding, and his will is also very determined. If there is With your guidance, I believe it is only a matter of time before he becomes a ninja in his own right."

Orochimaru licked his lips with interest, and felt a little moved in his heart, so he said: "I am familiar with that boy. He does have even better physical talents than Tsunade did back then, and as the grandson of the first generation, if he grows up smoothly, , maybe it's possible to awaken that secret technique. Haha, it seems interesting to be able to teach him, so I agreed to this. But Sarutobi-sensei, there are three people in a ninja team, have you made arrangements for the other two? ?”

Seeing that Orochimaru agreed to this matter, Sarutobi Hiruzen also felt relieved. Choosing Orochimaru as the guiding jounin of the rope tree was also the result of his careful consideration.

The rope tree is the direct grandson of the first generation, and it can be said that the roots are upright and the seedlings are red.His grandmother Uzumaki Mito is an elder of Konoha and a jinchūriki of the Nine-Tails. He is also very talented and has a good temperament and reason. The village hopes that he can grow up smoothly.

However, when it comes to the choice of mentoring jounin, most of the outstanding ninjas of the Sandaime generation such as Shimura Danzo and Mito Kadeni have already held high-level positions in the village. They are usually busy with business and do not have time to guide ninjas.

As for the younger generation of ninjas, the most outstanding are his three disciples and Hatake Sakumo of the Hatake clan. Hatake Sakumo is outstanding because of his secret sword skills, which cannot be taught to other families. child.Moreover, his own fighting method is too simple.

Tsunade is Naoki's biological sister and is not suitable to be his teacher.Jiraiya's character is too childish and out of touch, and he still needs to be tempered.

In comparison, Orochimaru, who has a stable personality and outstanding talents, is the most suitable choice.

As for the question raised by Orochimaru about the selection of Nezuki's teammates, the Sandaime actually didn't care much.

He walked to his seat behind the desk and sat down. He pulled out a stack of books from the drawer, handed it to Orochimaru, and said, "Look through it. This is the roster of this year's graduates. Two teammates, it’s up to you to decide.”

Orochimaru took the booklet and flipped through it carefully, noticing that the first one on the booklet was a picture of a girl with long black hair.

"Uchiha Mikoto? Oh? So there are children from the Uchiha clan in this generation?"

Orochimaru was very interested in the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan.Human life is short, and mastering as many ninjutsu as possible in this short life is undoubtedly the most meaningful thing.The Sharingan can copy ninjutsu, which is in line with Orochimaru's taste.

However, the Sandaime frowned slightly when he saw this, and said with some displeasure: "Orochimaru, I advise you not to have any ideas about her. Although this girl has some talents, she is the granddaughter of that old man Uchiha River. You also know that old man, She is a die-hard member of the family and is very difficult to deal with. If you accept her as a disciple, it will be difficult to explain if something happens, so it is better to leave this child to the family to train themselves.

He paused and then said: "Moreover, this girl's graduation score is No. 1. If you take her and Shengshu under your command, you will inevitably attract gossips. After all, our system is to ensure that every team is as good as possible. The strength is balanced.”

Uchiha Chuan was the previous captain of the police force. During his tenure, he was arrogant and domineering, causing resentment in the village.

This man always turns a blind eye to the Uchiha clan members when enforcing the law, and is extremely defensive. Whenever there is a conflict between the clan members and villagers, the fault will inevitably be placed on the villagers.

Such a typical familialist, as the Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen has always been deeply hated, and he even dislikes his granddaughter Uchiha Mikoto.

"Haha, Sarutobi-sensei, it seems that you have a lot of opinions about Uchiha River."

Orochimaru ignored the topic and slowly flipped through the book in his hand. When he reached the end, he pointed to the last name and asked, "What kind of child is this Kuramahiko?"

"Oh, Kurama Yan? You said that I may not know much about other children, but this child is quite impressive to me."

The Sandaime took out his pipe, took a few puffs, and said: "The theoretical score is barely passing, and the ninjutsu score is okay, but the physical test is too bad. Whether it is a physical test or a physical training, as long as it is with the body If his quality is anything to go by, he is the last.”

"In this case, his overall score should not meet the passing standard. How could he appear on the list of graduates?"

Seeing Orochimaru talking about this, the Sandaime blushed and said: "Actually, his level of taijutsu can barely reach the genin level. In addition, I have personally seen that his talent for illusion is quite outstanding, so I gave him a special Graduation batch.”

Orochimaru stared at Sarutobi Hiruzen, narrowed his eyes, and said with a faint smile: "Oh, I believe that Hokage-sama is always fair and just. But since there is such a bottom player, I will add Uchiha Mikoto, and others There shouldn’t be anything wrong with it, right? A chief, an average student, and a top-notch configuration, hahaha.”

The Sandaime Hokage rubbed his brows. Seeing that this disciple insisted on recruiting Uchiha Mikoto, he said with a headache: "If you insist on doing this, that's fine. I will say hello to the Uchiha family."

After Orochimaru left with satisfaction, the Sandaime took out a round crystal ball from the drawer, looked at it, played with it carefully, and murmured to himself: "Orochimaru would actually accept that child as a disciple. Counting this, I seem to be a bit at a loss for accepting this thing from him."
