The sky is getting brighter, and there are statues of the heads of the four Hokages carved on the cliff in the distance. Twelve years ago, the Nine-Tails Rebellion led to the death of the fourth generation Feng Shuimen, who was originally in his prime. Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had retired at the time, returned to the position of Hokage. The remaining three consultants, Shimura Danzo, Mito Kadeni, and Kaden Koharu, still serve as senior executives.
Jiang Yuan walked on the streets of Konoha with a short sword made of chakra conductive metal hanging on his back. When he left, Aburame Togen gave him several documents, mainly the admission procedures for the ninja school and his normal villager status. , these things don’t take too long even for the roots, even if they are improvised.
"What I need most right now is a source of energy."
On the side of the street, the aroma of boiling broth was already spreading from Ichiraku Ramen. Jiang Yuan opened the curtain and entered, sitting directly on a chair. The store was not very large. Behind the counter, a middle-aged man skillfully pinched both sides of the dough with his hands. , and then pulled it outward, the dough suddenly turned into a long strip, and the movements were smooth when stretched repeatedly. The other party's skills were well-known in Konoha.
"Two bowls of barbecued pork ramen, take away." Jiang Yuan looked at the price list and said. This intelligence mission is of great importance. Danzo personally gave the order to pay according to the two A-level missions, so the logistics department paid quite a lot of money. Happy, a total of 700,000 taels, enough to support activities in the future.
"Okay." Uncle Yile smiled and nodded. At this point, his daughter hadn't gotten up yet, so he had to get up and do some preparations, but there was no problem in making one now.
Jiang Yuan looked blankly. After learning the thunder armor from Kumogakure Jōnin, he became more familiar with chakra. At this moment, he was able to apply lightning stimulation within a safe range to all parts of the body, and the cells were destroyed to a limited extent. Later, it was repaired by the body, and the body began to continue to grow at a relatively slow rate, at the expense of a sudden increase in food intake and shortened body use time.
Due to the arrival of the consciousness projection body, the results he achieved during his short-term training at the root were not ideal, and his progress was only equivalent to that of an ordinary chuunin, so obtaining the energy source became the primary goal at the current stage.
The most preferred option is a tailed beast. In addition, there are sprites, dragon veins, zero-tails, etc. to choose from. However, these energy sources are not as stable as tailed beasts, and the options are basically fixed. In view of the danger of hunting tailed beasts, starting from one-tailed guard. Crane was the safest to start with. Although Shukaku himself believed that there was no strength gap between the tailed beasts, the half-Kyuubi one-on-six obviously denied this.
"Brother, your barbecued pork ramen." Uncle Ichiraku put the bowl covered in a plastic bag in front of the guest. The child in front of him looked a little immature, but his eyes were completely inappropriate for his age. A long time ago, he served him when he was young. The expressions of the two ninjas who survived the battlefield were very similar, but the details were slightly different.
Jiang Yuan stood up and left with the plastic bag. The scientific level of Naruto's world is actually not low, at least it has electric lights and wires, but ninjutsu has reduced human beings' hard demand for technology.
Passing by the alley, Jiang Yuan used chopsticks to take out the barbecued pork and threw it to the wild dog. After waiting for a few minutes, he saw that the wild dog did not show any abnormality after eating it before moving on. The moment he turned around, his eyes directly caught Hui Huan. The root colleague who has not finished adjusting the position.
"Seriously."
The root jounin responsible for surveillance: "..."
Thank you so much for the reminder!
Jiang Yuan walked towards the ninja school, and the morning light showed in the sky. He climbed over the wall easily, found a random classroom and prepared to have breakfast. The second package of barbecued pork ramen was placed on the podium.
The noodles are smooth and chewy, and the soup is mellow and rich. Except for the slight loss of flavor due to the drop in temperature, it is indeed worthy of frequent visits by many ninjas.
"Yours is on the podium." Jiang Yuan turned his head and said to the corner outside the classroom wall.
The Genbu Jonin in the dark had a complicated expression. This was the heaviest blow he had ever suffered in his career. Through the wall, he seemed to be able to see the other party's calm gaze. He was spotted twice in less than half an hour. In another situation, he might have already dead.
The Nebe jounin pushed the door directly in, silently took away the ramen, and then left the classroom to continue the surveillance mission. For the special situation where Senju Okra escaped from the Seal of Tongue Bane, surveillance was a necessary process.
Breakfast was quickly wiped out. Jiang Yuan left his seat, walked behind the podium and squatted down. The ramen that the jounin had not finished eating fell to the ground. He raised his hand and touched the mask to make sure that he did not lose face. He couldn't help but said:
"If anything happens, just tell me."
"Help me go through the procedures. The announcement outside said that tomorrow is the graduation exam. As soon as possible, I don't want to let down Danzo-sama's cultivation." Jiang Yuan said calmly. He would never let Danzo's hard work go to waste.
"I'm not your captain." Nebe Jonin refused.
"Then spit out the noodles. I think you eat them deliciously."
After nearly half a minute of hesitation, the Nebe jounin finally chose to leave the space under the podium, fiercely took the admission procedures from someone's hand, and snorted before leaving.
"Don't be too proud, kid, I'm the watcher."
…
nine in the morning.
Iruka walked into the classroom with someone who had been checking the safety of the environment for a long time. The students who had been very noisy just now fell silent instantly. The young man in front of him who was about the same age as him was extremely handsome, but his exclamations were immediately suppressed by the cold aura. His throat was cut, and compared to his appearance, the feeling that he might pick up a knife and kill someone at any time was more eye-catching.
Iruka rubbed the side of his forehead a few times with a headache. Now that Konoha is so peaceful, this child is simply out of place. However, this morning, the Hokage sent the ANBU captain to inquire in person, so he couldn't say much.
"This is Senju Okra. He is of the same race as the First Hokage. Don't underestimate him. I think he will be able to catch up with your course progress soon..."
"Teacher Iruka, the graduation exam is tomorrow!"
Among the students, the yellow-haired child stood up and said.
Iruka visibly stiffened for a moment, resisting the embarrassment of being picked on for his speech, and said loudly: "How could I, as a teacher, not know about the exam tomorrow! No noise is allowed in class, sit back, Naruto!"
Naruto Uzumaki put his hands on the corners of his mouth and made a face before sitting back down. However, he did not sit idle after sitting down. He took out a pen and paper and drew a graffiti and threw it to Haruno Sakura. The atmosphere in the classroom immediately returned to normal.
Hinata retracted her furtive gaze, with a shy blush on her face. Naruto's action of throwing the note was very handsome in her eyes.
Uchiha Sasuke looked out the window after a brief absence. The new guy looked a bit like that person.
As Uzumaki Naruto's crush, Haruno Sakura had a crush on Sasuke. Seeing him looking out the window, she finally couldn't help but throw the note back in anger.
Nara Shikamaru was sleeping, Akimichi Choji was secretly eating potato chips, Yamanaka Ino lowered his head and looked in the mirror, and other students were busy with their own business. Iruka felt like his head was going to explode again when he saw this.
"Introduce yourself, Okra."
It turns out that it is the newcomer who has the most peace of mind.
Jiang Yuan looked around and said seriously: "For the sake of you being cubs, I will take care of you once depending on the situation, but don't have any expectations."
Iruka: "..."
He took back what he said before, shouldn't he introduce himself as "please take care of me!" ?
The class bell rang, and the students gave a little face, at least consciously covering up their small movements. Jiang Yuan found a seat in the last row, and then put the books he had exchanged for part of the task reward on the table.
According to rumors, the Third Hokage is proficient in all existing ninjutsu in Konoha, excluding of course the little-known S-level forbidden jutsu that requires special requirements. He has five chakra attributes and is unrivaled in all-round power. He is known as Doctor of ninjutsu, and the second generation Hokage Senju Tobirama is an absolute genius in the development of ninjutsu. The two have written eight books explaining ninjutsu, which are used as educational books in ninja schools. However, few people attend the lectures. Later it was mixed with a lot of boring Will of Fire.
On the podium, Iruka was filling in the key points of the Three Body Technique to the students, trying to make the exam go smoothly for these guys tomorrow. Jiang Yuan opened "The Book of Capital", which is a book about ninjutsu training. The opening chapter Summarizes the techniques of nindo to defend against enemies.
Theoretically, Ninjutsu has three stages from birth to completion. The first stage: Strengthening [Characteristic Change], which is the basis for all Ninjutsu to exert attributes and characteristics. For example, wind attribute chakra can cut leaves, and those who want to learn or To release attribute ninjutsu, you need to continuously strengthen and practice "cutting leaves".
The second stage: increase the amount of instantaneous change. This is the key link to enhance the power of Ninjutsu. By releasing the [Characteristic Change] explosively, the level of Ninjutsu can be improved.
The third stage: Combining nature changes with ninjutsu. This is the final step and depends most on talent.
At the end of the opening chapter, it is pointed out that most ninjas are led by masters or teachers when learning ninjutsu, and then complete it based on experience. In fact, there is a lack of theoretical guidance. The original intention of "The Book of Capital" is to help those geniuses become more outstanding, and for For students with average theoretical abilities, the flash of inspiration that may exist in the future is also a boost.
Jiang Yuan abandoned those useless wills of fire and learned knowledge from books. In fact, this kind of thing is also very useful, but it depends on who holds the handle. In his opinion, the will of the source sounds much better than the will of fire. .
The bell rang again and again. Jiang Yuan sat in his seat until dark. No one came to disturb him. During this period, he occasionally felt a sense of spying coming from the direction of Hokage Rock. The third Hokage could observe most of Konoha with the help of the crystal ball. Currently, The major public baths do not yet know this.
As night falls, the reserve ninjas are out of school. Since tomorrow is the graduation exam, there will be many parents coming to pick up their children tonight, and the heads of families who usually live in seclusion rarely show up.
Jiang Yuan walked out of the ninja school and caught a glimpse of Uzumaki Naruto sitting alone on a swing not far away. Tomorrow, after the exam, the forbidden art scroll will be stolen. There may be a secret push from the Third Hokage behind it, but the Flying Thunder God's Art is worth it. He once challenged the nerves of Konoha's top brass, and the worst result would be nothing more than becoming a traitorous ninja, first joining Orochimaru, and then switching to the Akatsuki organization. People often say there is more than one way.
"Come with me."
Uzumaki Naruto looked up blankly, and his original disappointed expression disappeared instantly. He scratched his head and said with a smile, "It's you, I don't know your name yet."
"Senju Okra."
Jiang Yuan said perfunctorily, turned around and headed towards the barbecue restaurant. Naruto Uzumaki couldn't sit still like a monkey, jumping up and down nearby. This habit may have developed his special physique to a certain extent.
In the spiritual world, inside the vermilion fence shrouded in darkness, the huge demon fox suddenly opened its eyes, its nine tails swayed slightly, and the ground immediately stirred up ripples. However, after sensing the opponent's chakra, the nine tails went dormant again. Come down.
Just not an evil Uchiha.
At the same time, several Anbu ninjas moved. They have been responsible for the security of the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki. If Uzumaki Naruto could think carefully, he would find that he had never left the village's boundary. This happened every time. Or something like that unexpectedly jumps out of the way.
The base Chuunin of the Mingpai approached the Jinchuuriki, and this news was immediately reported to the Hokage.
Jiang Yuan's face remained calm, and he raised his hand and waved towards a certain Root Jōnin disguised as a passerby. This was a contact between peers, and both parties were alone, so it was reasonable.
As expected, Danzo would help him shield himself from the accusations, and the other party would not miss this opportunity to get close to the Jinchuuriki.
Root jounin: "..."
Although I understand, you are really done, aren't you?
"What are we going to do?" Uzumaki Naruto asked with his hands on his pillow.
"Eating barbecue." Jiang Yuan replied.
…
The Hokage Building located in front of the cliff of Konoha.
On the top floor, Hiruzen Sarutobi was sitting behind the desk wearing the Hokage's godly robe. The room was filled with smoke. An elite Jonin captain from ANBU knelt down on one knee. Considering someone's age and behavior that was still within the safe category, He still had enough time to explain the process in detail.
"...The two are now heading towards the Akimichi Grill."
Sarutobi Hiruzen exhaled a puff of smoke heavily. Chunin was nothing. Even the ten Chunin combined were no match for the elite Jonin. However, Senju Oki's identity was extremely special, and his origins destined him to be difficult to favor. Naruto camp.
"Send someone to take him there..."
With a bang, the door to the Hokage's office was pushed open, and Danzo walked in quickly with a cane in his hand. He really didn't expect Senju Okra to choose to approach the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki directly. Being too loyal would be a bit troublesome, but it didn't matter. At this point, he would not give up this opportunity. After all, the Jinchuuriki seemed to have shown a certain amount of trust.
"Sarutobi, what age are we in now? Being too harsh on children is unethical as a Hokage."
The corner of Sarutobi Hiruzen's mouth twitched slightly, it was really inappropriate for him to say such upright and awe-inspiring words.
"Naruto is a Jinchuuriki, and his importance to the village is self-evident. There is a problem with Senju Okra's identity."
Sarutobi Hiruzen played a big-picture card. In his eyes, Danzo had considerable feelings for Konoha, but they were mainly manifested in extreme external development and internal high pressure. This was also the reason why he forgave the Nine-Tails Rebellion. In addition to friendship and avoiding further turmoil, the important reason why the other party launched the assassination was that the core of their common ideals also influenced the decision-making.
"In other words, you don't trust me?" Danzo had already experienced it and responded directly with the emotional card.
Sarutobi Hiruzen choked, and Danzo followed up with an Akatsuki.
"Do you think I will be detrimental to the village? I am just worried that the disaster more than ten years ago will happen again. As the leader of the root, is it not reasonable for me to worry about this kind of thing? Because of your opinions, I have never been in the human column. Put people around Riki. Before the graduation examination, you have made an internal decision to guide the jounin. The jinchuriki needs to go out to perform tasks. This is simply ridiculous. The lessons from the past are right in front of you, but did I say more? No! I am just a chuunin. I chose it on purpose. You have a child and the curse has been lifted, and you are even still a member of the Thousand Hands clan. What else do you have to be dissatisfied with? If it doesn’t work, I’ll just go back and cultivate, and you can do those dirty things yourself!”
"This is not a matter of trust or distrust!" Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but stand up.
"You value your rights. I have the right to monitor the Jinchuuriki." Danzo growled, this guy was unreasonable.
"You don't have this power, I am the Hokage." Sarutobi Hiruzen hammered the table. Unexpectedly, he was such a person in the eyes of his old friends!
Danzo suddenly felt tired and turned around with a sneer.
"Do what you want, but you'll regret it!"
The sudden pulling force almost broke the door. Sarutobi Hiruzen sat back in his chair and was speechless for a long time.
"Am I going a little too far? I'm just a chuunin."
The ANBU captain bowed his head, how could he dare to answer.
