The confrontation test before the Ninja School not only tested the strength of Kurama Yakumo, but also tested the excellence of this group of Ninja School students.
The genius boys from several other villages had no ability to compete against the four geniuses of the Ninja School and Kurama Yakumo, who possessed the 'Wood Release'.
The performance of other students in the Ninja School is also remarkable and worthy of praise.
The better they are, the more worthy of training they are, so Kakashi proposed to the Third Generation that the Jonin go to the Ninja School to select some outstanding students as disciples.
This is also an old tradition of Konoha.
In the beginning, this was how the Third Generation selected Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru. Jiraiya also selected the fourth generation in this way.
The fourth generation also chose Kakashi, Obito, and Nohara Rin.
It can be said that the line of Master and Disciple of Hokage relies on the selection of good talents in the ninja school and is passed down from generation to generation.
If a Konoha ninja fails to blend into this master-disciple system and does not worship a member of the Hokage line as his master, politically he does not have the conditions to become a Hokage candidate.
No matter how high your prestige and strength are, it is difficult to become Hokage through normal channels.
on the contrary.
As long as you successfully blend into the Hokage master-apprentice system, such as Naruto who became a disciple of Jiraiya, Yakumo who became a disciple of Tsunade, and even Sasuke who trained with Kakashi, they are actually qualified to become Hokage. .
Don't underestimate this qualification.
Yes or no, that is the difference between 'one's own' and 'not one's own'.
If you are not one of your own, the stronger you are and the higher your prestige is, not only will you not be qualified to become Hokage, but you will also cause trouble.
Kakashi's father, Konoha White Fang, is an example!
After waiting for a moment, Kakashi asked all the Jonin: "Do you have anyone you like?"
Asma shrugged: "The old man has already chosen me to guide the new generation of 'Pig Deer Butterfly', so I won't choose."
Shizune smiled: "Originally, I was still a little torn between Ino and Sakura. Since you chose 'Ino Shika Butterfly', then I will choose Sakura! I have seen her test results, and she is very interested in chakra." His control is very delicate, and he is a good candidate for a medical ninja."
Akai stared at Xiao Li on the playground and said, "I want to see again!"
Kurenai Yuhi, who was promoted from special jounin to official jounin not long ago, shook her head and said, "I want to take another look!"
What she prefers is actually Kurama Yakumo, who is good at illusions.
It's just that Yakumo has already accepted Tsunade as her disciple, so she doesn't have a favorite candidate for the time being.
Kakashi frowned and looked at Yamato who had not yet said anything.
Seeing Kakashi looking over, Yamato said with a grimace: "Hokage-sama has arranged a candidate for me, and that is the miko from the Kingdom of Demons."
As the "Wooden Release" became more and more popular in the world, Yamato, who owned the "Wooden Release", became more and more low-key.
"Why..."
Kakashi could only sigh.
Judging from the performance of the students in the ninja school, it was easy to tell who was strong and who was weak, but the jonins avoided Uchiha Shinji and Kimimaro.
This shows that everyone does not want to get into trouble.
After all, there were only a few Jonin in the entire village who were willing to accept Uchiha like him, and even less so, orphans from other villages like Kimimaro.
It's just that Kimimaro should be aware of his situation and not feel resentful when facing some injustices. But Uchiha Shinji is different. Although he is so dazzling, he is not favored by any jounin in the village. Over time, it is hard to say whether he will have any ideas.
So, Kakashi said to Yuhi Kurenai: "Red, what do you think of Uchiha Shinji?"
Yuhi Hong thought for a moment, then shook her head and said, "I'm not suitable to be his instructor."
Kakashi looked at Kai again: "Kai, what do you think of Uchiha Shinji?"
Kai refused directly: "He is a genius and is not suitable to be my disciple."
Kakashi was helpless and speechless.
Mainly because of Kai's refusal, he could not refute, because indeed not all jounin were qualified to guide geniuses like Uchiha Shinji.
In Kakashi's eyes, the most suitable person to become Uchiha Shinji's instructor is actually the Uchiha clan's own genius, Uchiha Shisui or Uchiha Itachi.
Others, even himself, were a bit off.
Kakashi sighed secretly: "Let's find another jounin!"
...
In the blink of an eye, a week passed.
The Jonin began to get in touch with their favorite disciples.
Asuma became the instructor of the new generation of "Ino Shikacho", and Yuhi Kurenai accepted the request of the Hyuga clan and guided Hinata Hinata.
Shizune began to guide Sakura in the practice of medical ninjutsu.
Yamato became the personal trainer of Shion, a miko from the land of ghosts.
Even Xiao Li, who was not seen by others, was said to have started training in taijutsu with a strange jounin.
The collective recruitment of disciples by jounin has become the hottest topic in the ninja school in the past week.
There is envy...
There are expectations...
Of course there are complaints...
Shinji was naturally extremely happy about this.
Because there are new topics to fill in the blanks, the students and teachers of Ninja School will not pay too much attention to Xiang Phosphorus who is recuperating at home.
But what he didn't expect was that this trend of Jonin accepting disciples would actually start a wave of rumors about him and Kimimaro.
Obviously.
The fact that he and Kimimaro, two geniuses, were outside the scope of the Jonin's collective recruitment this time, aroused many people's doubts.
Yakumo and Naruto, Tsunade and Jiraiya, known as the 'Three Ninjas', became disciples.
Zuosuke trained with Kakashi, who was the number one technician in Konoha, and Neji received personal guidance from the head of the Hyuga clan.
Among the outstanding students, only Shinji and Kimimaro are practicing alone.
Nowadays, Shikamaru, Ino, and Chouji, the new generation of Ino Shikacho, as well as famous low-ranking ones such as Sakura, Shion, and Xiao Li, all have mentors.
But Shinji and Kimimaro are still ignored, which is a bit intriguing.
Kimimaro's Kirigakure rebellious ninja origin is there, so it's understandable that no one cares about it, but Uchiha Shinji is a native Konoha ninja, and he is also the victim of the Uchiha genocide incident. Such a tragic character It is really unreasonable for a young genius to not be favored by any Jonin.
In classrooms.
Shiro took advantage of the break after class and said to Shinji: "Shinji-kun, you don't need to pay attention to those rumors!"
Shinji was startled for a moment, then nodded with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm fine!"
After dealing with Shiro's comfort, Shinji just walked out of the classroom when he bumped into Zuosuke.
Seeing Shinji, Sasuke asked directly: "Shinji, aren't there any jounin who want to accept you as a disciple?"
Zuosuke frowned: "What's going on? Do you want me to talk to Kakashi?"
Shinji said: "No, I'm fine!"
After walking out of the school gate, Shinji met Shion who came here specially.
Shion came close to him and whispered: "Shinji, I have asked my jounin to guide me. We can practice together in the future!"
Seeing Shinji about to speak, Shion waved her hands like a little adult: "Don't worry, if others ask, I will tell you that he chose you himself! How about, we are friends enough!"
Shinji didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and secretly laughed at himself: "Well, now I have become the object of attention for Xianglan!"
