A few days later, Konoha, Hokage's office.
"I said you three are so brave. You dare to hit your own teacher."
The Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, held his pipe in his mouth and looked at the three brats below with an indifferent expression.
Erhei was about to say something, but Leiyin stopped him aside: "Everything was done by me and has nothing to do with the two of them."
Hiruzen took a puff of his cigarette and asked, "Then can you tell me why you wanted to hit Mizuki?"
"Mizuki is cruel and tyrannical, and has a twisted mentality. He makes us do things that are impossible to accomplish. That is not training at all. He just wants our lives."
Lei Yin told Sarutobi Hiruzen truthfully how Mizuki inspected the three of them.
Hiruzen's face darkened: "Then, why can you do it? I heard Mizuki say that you used Earth Release to build a bridge yourself."
"Then...it's just that I usually work harder than others." Lei Yin told a lie casually.
Unexpectedly, Hiruzen suddenly slapped the table and stood up: "You guy! I'm not praising you! No matter what the reason is, you shouldn't hit your teacher! This has been the case in Konoha Village for generations. But it’s a unique thing!”
Hiruzen shouted, his voice stern, startling all the ninjas present.
"Hokage-sama..." I had never seen Hiruzen so angry before, Iruka murmured beside him.
Hearing this loud shout, Lei Yin's expression remained unchanged: "That was not an inspection at all, but abuse! If I had to choose again, I would beat him severely! Also, at this time, I am alone. Because, if there is any crime, I will bear it alone, please Hokage not to punish them!"
At this time, Erhei finally couldn't help it and raised his right hand: "Actually, I couldn't bear to see Mizuki let Lei Yin go. If you want to punish me, punish me!"
This time, Meng Xiaomeng did not hesitate at all. She raised her jade-white hand and raised her voice: "And me! I want to beat Mizuki too!"
"Hey! You little brats, don't talk nonsense in front of the Hokage!" A special jounin scolded loudly.
However, the anger on Sarutobi Hiruzen's face still remained, and he continued: "You three people..."
When he said this, Hiruzen kept looking into Leiyin's eyes. Erhei and Meng Xiaomeng on the side had already begun to beat their hearts. They didn't know what to do next. Leiyin was also looking straight at it. Hiruzen showed no flinch or fear.
The anger on Hiruzen's face gradually dissipated, and he made a 180-degree turn, replaced by a kind smile: "I announce that from now on, Lei Yin, Er Hei, and Meng Xiaomeng will officially Become a genin!"
"Ah?!"
Didn’t you still look fierce just now? Why did he suddenly let himself become a genin now? Will he not pursue the matter of beating Mizuki?
"This is..."
When the three of them were confused, Hiruzen spoke: "I have sent ANBU to investigate Mizuki's matter in the past two days, but there is something wrong. Regarding his bad behavior, we handed him over to the ANBU Interrogation Department for interrogation. He He also revealed his previous treatment of students."
"So...that's it..."
"And regarding this, please allow me to say sorry to you. It is my fault to appoint such a person as your teacher." Hiruzen said to the three of them.
Iruka: "Hokage-sama, you..."
Everyone present was shocked that the Hokage would take the initiative to apologize to the three genin.
Seeing this, Heiji quickly said: "Hokage-sama, you don't have to be like this... we..."
Hiruzen still had a smile on his face: "You three are not only commendable for your courage, but also very loyal, especially Lei Yin... Your temper is very suitable for me. I decided to assign you a new teacher to help you growing up..."
"Yamato!"
Hiruzen shouted, and Yamato stood up from the team.
Captain Yamato, because Kakashi was injured in the original work, so he led Team 7 to perform the mission instead of Kakashi. When he was young, he was experimented by Orochimaru and succeeded inadvertently. He inherited the wood escape blood inheritance limit of the first generation Hokage Senju Hashirama.
"It's actually him?!" Lei Yin was also startled when he saw Yamato.
Seeing these three little guys, Yamato put on an approachable smile: "From now on, I will be everyone's team leader, and everyone must get along well."
Erhei: "Well, we definitely will."
Meng Xiaomeng thought to herself: The teacher this time should look much better than Teacher Shuimu, right?
When we came out of the Hokage's office, it was getting late. Yamato told the three of them to meet on the bridge east of Konoha Village tomorrow morning and then disbanded.
Taking advantage of the afterglow of the setting sun, the three of them were walking on the path between the villages. Lei Yin said, "Didn't I tell you? I bear the responsibility alone, why did you all jump out?"
"We are on the same team. If we only let you do it alone, wouldn't we look too loyal?"
"Yeah yeah."
"Ha ha..."
