Naruto: What Should I Do If I Am Not A Genius?

small meeting room

This is where the Hokage and the advisory elders hold meetings, and some major decisions that affect Konoha are made here.

On the main seat, the third generation frowned and kept smoking his cigarette pipe.

“That’s it. We can’t let the rumors continue to spread. If this continues, it will destroy Sakumo.”

“Hiruzen, this mission did fail because of Hatake Sakumo. If you don’t punish him, it’s already out of compliance. Do you still want to go against the will of the people?”

As soon as the third generation finished speaking, Danzo’s gloomy voice sounded directly.

“you…”

Sandai wanted to say something, but for a moment he didn’t know where to start. There was indeed something very fishy about Sakumo’s mission.

But I didn’t expect that a failed mission would turn into what it is now. The development of things has been beyond the control of the third generation.

Although the third generation was the Hokage, many things were discussed by Danzo, Koharu, and Mito Kaden.

Most of the time it was the Sandai and Danzo who argued endlessly, while the other two were responsible for peace.

During the Third War, although Konoha won the final victory, many wrong decisions occurred during the war. This was not only the fault of Sandai, but also the fault of Danzo and the other three.

However, Mito Monobu and Koharu, who were greedy for power, chose to side with Danzo and passed all the blame to the third generation. In the end, the third generation took the blame and resigned.

Danzo originally thought that he could ascend to the position of Hokage that he longed for, but unfortunately, the third generation still had a hand in pushing Minato to the position of the fourth generation of Hokage.

There was no other way, Danzo could only continue to wait. Unexpectedly, the opportunity came soon, and the fourth generation died in the Nine-Tails Rebellion.

Danzo thought it was my turn, but what Danzo didn’t expect was that the third generation returned to the battlefield and continued to serve as Hokage. This was the beginning of Danzo’s true use of all possible means to covet the position of Hokage.

“I think Danzo is right.”

Xiaochun said after turning to bed.

Mito Menyan also nodded in agreement.

“you!”

The third generation had nothing to say. He was so angry at these two people. He really didn’t understand why the second generation wanted these three people to become consultant elders.

What can’t be done! What you eat is not enough!

They fight for power and gain, follow the trend, and are better than anyone else. When it comes to getting serious, they all shrink up like a tortoise. The only one who can really take charge is Sandai himself.

Although the third generation is very unhappy, these three people are his closest comrades. What can he do? I can only endure it.

Seeing that the third generation had nothing to say, Danzo felt secretly happy.

Hiruzen, Hiruzen, you will always be like this, too soft-hearted. If this continues, the position of Hokage will be mine sooner or later!

“Ah sneeze!”

Danzo was feeling happy when he suddenly sneezed loudly, and then felt his back feel heavy, as if he was carrying something on his back.

“Don’t worry, Hiruzen, I will deal with this matter in a while. Let’s discuss the Chunin Exam.”

Danzo resigned as soon as he saw fit. If he really pissed off the third generation, it would be impossible for the three of them together to change his mind.

As for Sakumo, Danzo really didn’t want to kill Sakumo, he just wanted to make Sakumo’s reputation bad so that there would be one less person competing for Hokage.

When Danzo comes to power, he can clear his name for Sakumo. This way, Danzo will have a shadow-level strongman under his command. Why not?

The third generation also roughly guessed Danzo’s thoughts, and with some rumors, it would make White Fang decadent for a while at most, and no one would die, so Sakumo just let it go.

It’s a pity that no one could have imagined that Sakumo would eventually be unable to bear the pressure and commit suicide.

…

On the other side, Sakumo asked Taichi what he should do.

Taiyi was immediately confused and thought: How do I know what you should do? I am only responsible for persuading you not to commit suicide. Now that the goal has been achieved, you can do whatever you like.

But he couldn’t say that. After thinking about it, Taichi whispered a few words in Sakumo’s ear.

Sakumo looked surprised.

“you sure?!”

“Sure!”

Looking at Taichi’s determined eyes, Sakumo nodded.

“I see.”

Then, Sakumo picked up the “White Fang” and slowly pulled it out.

As the “White Fang” was unsheathed little by little, Sakumo’s aura gradually increased until the “White Fang” was completely unsheathed.

Sakumo’s momentum reached its peak, and Taichi felt that the person in front of him was no longer a person, but a sharp sword that could cut through the sky.

Outside the room, Kakashi also felt this momentum.

“dad…”

Taiyi, you really did it,The corners of Kakashi’s mouth quirked up. The tears couldn’t stop flowing.

Sakumo’s room opened, and only Taichi came out.

Kakashi hurriedly ran forward and looked into the room, but did not see Sakumo.

“Where’s dad?”

“Uncle Sakumo, I have something to do and I will be back soon.”

Although he was very confused, looking at Taichi’s look, it was obvious that he didn’t intend to tell him, so Kakashi didn’t ask any more questions.

“I’m already hungry. How about making a meal? Let’s eat together when Uncle Sakumo comes back?”

Taiyi caressed his empty belly and smiled innocently.

Kakashi was no longer dull, rolled his eyes, turned and walked towards the kitchen.

Since the incident, Kakashi hasn’t had a good meal, let alone Sakumo, so Kakashi prepared a lot of meals.

After Kakashi had prepared the meal, Sakumo also appeared at the door.

“Dad, you…”

Kakashi ran over excitedly, but hesitated to speak.

Sakumo looked much better, reached out to touch Kakashi’s head, and said with a smile:

“It’s okay, the matter has been resolved. You have worked hard during this period.”

Kakashi burst into tears and threw himself into Sakumo’s arms. Sakumo gently stroked Kakashi’s back.

Taichi and Sakumo looked at each other, and from Sakumo’s eyes, Taichi knew that the matter was resolved, perfectly resolved.

The guests and hosts enjoyed the meal, and Kakashi and Sakumo ate especially deliciously.

Sakumo was happy because the matter was resolved, and Kakashi was happy because Sakumo was no longer depressed.

After clearing away the dishes, the three of them sat around the table each holding a cup of hot tea.

Sakumo suddenly said: “I have applied for the quota for you two to join the ANBU. Go to the Hokage’s office tomorrow and the Third Generation will personally appoint you.”

Taichi and Kakashi were startled at the same time and looked at each other. Taichi spoke first:

“Anbu? Anbu won’t accept genin, right? It doesn’t matter if Kakashi is a chuunin, I’m still a genin.”

Sakumo took a sip of hot tea and said with a smile, “Tomorrow you will be a chuunin.”

“Huh?”×2

The two of them opened their mouths in surprise.

“Don’t you need a test?”

Kakashi was the first to ask, after all, he was a chuunin who passed the exam, wouldn’t Taichi need it? Why?

Sakumo shook his head, a cold light flashing in his eyes.

“There has to be some compensation.”

Hearing this, Taichi and Kakashi looked at each other and stopped asking questions.

“That’s right, Taichi.”

“ah?”

“Will you be my apprentice?”
