The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, took a long breath of smoke, shook out the burned tobacco in his pipe, added new tobacco, lit it, and took another puff of smoke, which filled most of the office like a puff of smoke.

"What kind of person do you think Uchiha Ryusuke is?"

Orochimaru and Hatake Sakumo stood in front of the desk and looked at each other before Hatake Sakumo answered first: "Strong, not arrogant, courageous to take on responsibilities, cherishing his companions, he is an excellent ninja with the will of fire. "

The Third Hokage smiled and said: "Oh, the evaluation is very high. As for you, Orochimaru, as Ryusuke's teacher, you should have a deeper understanding and observation."

Orochimaru had no expression on his face and said in a very unique hoarse voice very coldly: "It's very complicated. He seems to be a very casual person. He doesn't care about many things, such as the glory of the Uchiha clan, the identity of the genius, and the surrounding people. How people view him. But he is a person who pays attention to his companions and is kind to others. He is extremely serious in cultivation, but a bit lazy in work, and has a very casual personality. He is probably such a person."

Orochimaru paused and asked the Third Hokage: "Sarutobi-sensei has plans for Ryusuke?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi held his pipe in his mouth, smiled, opened the drawer, took out an application form, handed it to Orochimaru, and said, "It's not my arrangement, the boy applied for it himself."

"Anbu?"

Orochimaru handed the application form for joining the ANBU submitted by Ryusuke to Hatake Sakumo, and said with a meaningful smile, "Uchiha who want to join the ANBU... are really rare."

Hatake Sakumo glanced at the application form and smiled: "Considering strength and character, Ryusuke can indeed join ANBU. But, why does he want to join ANBU?"

"There is news that Uchiha Ryusuke is planning to compete for the position of the leader of the Uchiha clan." The third Hokage puffed out smoke and said very flatly.

"Ryuusuke will compete for the position of clan leader?" Hatake Sakumo was very surprised. In his impression, Ryusuke was not a person who was keen on power and status. Ryusuke was strong and mature, but he always maintained the behavior of a young man. Optimism, positivity and clarity.

"The specific reason is unclear." The Third Hokage answered, paused, and continued, "But it may be a good opportunity."

As for what the opportunity was, the Third Hokage did not explain it, but both Orochimaru and Hatake Sakumo understood it. It was really "I understand everything I know, don't say much if I don't understand, just savor it carefully".

"Sarutobi-sensei, do you agree?" Orochimaru asked the Hokage directly for the answer without asking any further questions.

"Well, Ryusuke is extremely capable in combat. It would be a pity not to recruit him. More importantly, he comes from the Uchiha clan." The Third Hokage put down his pipe and took a sip of tea to moisten his throat. "But how to arrange him, I don't know. decided."

"Why don't you give him to me."

The Third Hokage looked at Orochimaru and motioned for him to continue. Orochimaru said: "Ryusuke is already an elite jounin. It would be a huge waste to team up with ordinary ANBU to perform secret missions. He should become Konoha's leader." A sharp knife to perform more difficult tasks."

The Third Hokage thought again and again, picked up his pipe and took two puffs, and finally nodded and said: "That's it, I agree to Ryusuke joining the ANBU, but you will be solely responsible for it, Orochimaru. From now on, Ryusuke will be your subordinate."

"Yes!" Orochimaru responded.

"Go ahead, I'll leave the rest to you." The Third Hokage waved his hand, signaling Orochimaru to step back. Orochimaru didn't linger, nodded and walked away, leaving Hatake Sakumo behind. ???.

The Third Hokage ordered: "In about a month, we will sign a peace agreement with the daimyo of the Wind Country and the Kazekage of Sunagakure Village in the Country of Rivers. You can start to screen the relevant defense personnel and conduct on-site inspections."

"Yes!" Hatake Sakumo took the order and left to work.

There was only the Third Hokage left in the office of the Hokage Building, but an old man walked out from the side door, the famous Konoha Potato King—Shimura Danzo.

The Pot King and Naruto met, and it seemed that they were going to trigger Naruto's most classic and famous scene——

[Shimura Danzo and Sarutobi Hiruzen faced each other, their sharp glances exchanged, and the atmosphere was oppressive. In the silent confrontation, Shimura Danzo spoke first.

Shimura Danzo: "Hiruzen, you will regret it!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen: "Duanzo, you have gone too far. I am the Hokage!"

When Shimura Danzo heard this, he was furious. After many years, he still used these words to suppress himself. He snorted with suppressed anger, turned around and left, and fell hard.

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the back of his best friend, lowered his head slightly, the Hokage's hat covered his face, and smoked his pipe silently. The smoke was lingering, making it difficult to see what he was thinking. 】

Unfortunately, it didn't happen. Danzo and Hiruzen were at the end of their honeymoon period and had not yet reached their cooling-off period, let alone a confrontation over differences. Danzo was holding a cane. The villain had a sinister temperament and an ugly face. He said in a low voice: "Do you really think that the Uchiha clan members joined ANBU to contribute to the village?"

"Of course. Uchiha is the Uchiha of Konoha Hidden Village." Sarutobi Hiruzen answered.

Danzo did not refute and continued to ask: "Do you really think that the Uchiha clan will be divided into two different factions because of the fight for the clan leader?"

"I'm afraid not." Sarutobi Hiruzen replied simply.

Danzo snorted and said very coldly: "Of course, the Hokage's apprentice becomes the Hokage, and the clan leader's son becomes the clan leader. This has always been the case."

Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at him and did not scold or refute. Instead, he acquiesced to this "good tradition" and silently smoked his pipe.

"I have never been afraid to speculate on Uchiha people with the worst malice. Whether it is true or smoke bombs, I will keep a close eye on them. Don't hold me back."

Sarutobi Hiruzen hesitated for three seconds and then added: "Don't go too far."

"Humph, you are still the same." Danzo paused and continued to ask, "Uchiha Ryusuke will be an adult in a few years. By then, will you have the confidence to defeat him?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen took two puffs of cigarette and said very calmly: "Okay. I am the Hokage."

"Yes, that's good." Danzo actually didn't believe it, but he very much agreed with Orochimaru's arrangement, "As Orochimaru said, making him the sharpest knife in Konoha Village is indeed the most suitable arrangement. . I hope this sword is an obedient sword and will not become the next Uchiha Madara."

"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, no one can harm Konoha." Sarutobi Hiruzen said confidently.

"Okay, then let's take a look at what the Uchiha clan is planning..." Danzo was noncommittal, already planning a conspiracy in his heart.

Since Ryusuke submitted the application, he has stayed in his home as if in seclusion, trying his best to "capture" the bits of natural energy. Then there was a loud "pop, pop, pop" sound coming from his home, which kept ringing all day long. It seems that Lao Niu is working hard.

After another failure, Ryusuke took a break, stood up and drank a glass of water, and saw a small gray-black snake on the window. It nodded towards Ryusuke, turned over and jumped down.

"Snake? Is Mr. Orochimaru looking for me?"

In the entire Konoha, only Ryusuke and Orochimaru have snake psychic beasts, so it is obvious that this little snake is Orochimaru's "messenger". Ryusuke jumped over from the window and saw the little snake running to the end of the alley, turning back and wagging its tail like a puppy, waiting for him.

The little snake crawled quickly and led Ryusuke into a forest on the outskirts.

It was evening at this time, and the setting sun was hanging on the mountain forest, shining through the woods into thousands of rays of light. The place where Ryusuke stood was filled with rays of light, and everything was silent except for the sound of the gentle breeze caressing the leaves.

When the little snake was brought here, the psychic spell was released with a bang and disappeared.

"what happened"

Ryusuke turned around and looked around, but he didn't find Orochimaru at all. But at this moment, the originally silent forest suddenly sounded a sharp "squeaking" sound, like a swarm of bees flapping their wings.

Ryusuke noticed something, and when he looked up, he saw countless shurikens, as dense as a dark cloud, shooting out like an overwhelming force.

sneak attack!

Ryusuke didn't panic at all. He even slightly raised the corners of his mouth, half-smiling, and his hands had already formed seals. He opened his mouth and spat out a big fireball, which met the group of shurikens. With a bang, the dark cloud-like hands were directly blown away. The sword was blown away.

"Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu, it's indeed Orochimaru-sensei... In this case, I won't be polite." Ryusuke opened his eyes again and directly opened the three Magatama Sharingan.

rustling-

Suddenly, more than a dozen big snakes with thick wrists swooped from behind a big tree, each with a sharp sword in their mouth, and they stabbed at more than a dozen vital points on Ryusuke's body quickly and cunningly. at.

Fire Escape·Fengxian Fire Technique!

Ryusuke did not dodge, and used fire escape. A dozen flames shot out like missiles, hitting more than a dozen big snakes accurately, and carried out precise "explosion", exploding the snake meat into the air like rain.

Ryusuke is not someone who just takes a beating without fighting back. The "Latent Shadow Snake Hand" just now has exposed Orochimaru's hiding place. Ryusuke ducked behind the big tree, and Orochimaru was standing there. Without any explanation, he held a kunai in his left hand and stabbed it directly into Orochimaru's waist.

With a pop, Orochimaru turned into a puddle of mud and fell to the ground. In the turbulence of the mud, another Orochimaru suddenly appeared and punched Ryusuke's handsome face.

This is "Earth Substitute·Split". Among the earth substitutes, there is an extra earth substitute ambush. It pays attention to surprise, which is most conducive to sneak attacks.

Unfortunately, the Sharingan had already seen through everything, and the kunai thrown by Ryusuke with his left hand had already exploded its head when Orochimaru Earth's stand-in punched.

The earth double went limp and turned into a puddle of mud and fell, leaving a pile of mud on the ground. But in an instant, the mud on the ground surged several times. It roared out like a flash flood, swept up Ryusuke, submerged his feet, and was about to wrap up his body. With a bang, Ryusuke It became a piece of wood.

Substitute!

Ryusuke's real body was squatting on a tree, watching the "Earth Release Earthflow River" overflowing and leaking all over the ground. He stood up, looked at the open space more than ten meters away, and said with a smile: "Enough with the boring tricks, Mr. Orochimaru. This is not a teaching course in a ninja school."

"Uh huh huh... That's really awesome." Orochimaru's voice rang out in the open space. He swayed out like a snake and said a little wetly, "As expected of Konoha's Secret Eye."

"Tch, this kind of..."

Ryusuke's words came to an abrupt end. He found that the tree trunk under his feet had grown thick branches, wrapping around himself like steel bars, tightly binding and imprisoning him.

Ryusuke was shocked, not because of the illusion, but because someone actually cast an illusion on him! ? What do you think, Orochimaru-sensei?

Ryusuke really looks like he said to Orochimaru: You are so brave!

Why do you want to rush to contribute a famous scene before Yuhi Kurenai, and use illusions on the owner of the Three Magatama Sharingan who is good at illusions? This is completely stupid behavior!

"Yes, your illusion value is 10, but it only reaches 10. My illusion value can also be 10, because the maximum value is only 10!"

Ryusuke did nothing, just stood and kept smiling, letting the tree wrap around him, and looked at Orochimaru calmly. However, in Orochimaru's eyes, Ryusuke, who was supposed to be entangled in the big tree in the illusion, disappeared and disappeared in his gaze.

puff--

The next moment, Orochimaru heard the sound of the ball breaking, and then found a fist wrapped with lightning piercing his chest. Orochimaru's reaction was also very strange. He did not scream or be surprised, but smiled: "It's really good..."

With a bang, Orochimaru exploded into a cloud of smoke, which turned out to be a shadow clone. Ryusuke took back his right hand and flicked it, and the lightning on his hand disappeared.

clap clap clap...

Orochimaru stood under the tree behind, applauding, and said with a smile: "The use of ninjutsu and tactics are impeccable. Congratulations, you passed my exam."

"Exam?" Ryusuke looked at Orochimaru doubtfully.

Orochimaru said: "Yes, the exam. Didn't you apply to join the Anbu? Your qualifications were reviewed just now. From now on, you will be my subordinate."

"Well, there is still the matter of exams. Forget it, just pass it."

Orochimaru took out a scroll from his sleeve, threw it to Ryusuke, and said, "This is the mission you have to complete next, S-rank."

Ryusuke blinked, pointed at himself and said, "Eh? Am I the only one?"

Orochimaru smiled meaningfully: "Konoha, there are few people who can partner with you to perform tasks. From today on, you will complete the task alone."

Ryusuke shrugged and said helplessly: "Well, if you act alone, at least you have fewer things to worry about and it's more convenient."

"Come back to me after you complete the mission." After Orochimaru said this, he burrowed into the soil again and disappeared. It seems that this way of leaving will appear more stylish.

Ryusuke chose the simplest way and took a walk home.
