Otsutsuki Uncle

At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi no longer wanted to ask Makoto Ito how he learned it. After all, even if he asked, Makoto Ito would only say something like, "This is how it happened, then that is how it happened," and then he learned it...

At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi had no idea what kind of monster had appeared in the village.

Makoto Ito is truly a genius!

No, "genius" is not enough to describe him; he's a complete monster!

Hiruzen Sarutobi originally thought that Makoto Ito was a commoner genius, which reminded him of Jiraiya, Orochimaru, and Minato Namikaze Orochimaru, so he took him as a disciple. He never expected that this disciple would become such a monster!

Hiruzen Sarutobi his hand weakly.

"That's enough for today. Tree Climbing and Water Walking, and two Fire Release Ninjutsu —you need to practice them thoroughly!"

Now you're free to do whatever you want. Oh, by the way, Team 7, the one you saw yesterday, Kakashi's class is in Training Ground 3. They'll be having their assessment today. If you're interested, you can go check it out. I've already told him about it!

Besides, you have a pretty good relationship with Naruto and Sasuke, right? You can go and get to know their class. After all, as I said before, as the Hokage, I don't have much time to take you on missions, but all ninjas have to go on missions. So, I can only let you go on missions with other classes. You can also get to know Kakashi's Team 7 first!

As for other Ninjutsu, I will teach them to you slowly in the future. You must remember to avoid arrogance and impatience. Learning Ninjutsu is not something that can be done overnight!

In addition, you must remember the Will of Fire! Because to become an excellent ninja, the Will of Fire is indispensable. Where leaves dance, fire will never cease; the Kakkō will continue to illuminate the village, allowing new trees to sprout...

And so, after finishing his lesson for the day, Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't forget to use the Will of Fire to brainwash Makoto Ito!

The story of Hiruzen Sarutobi was told for a full hour!

[Tobirama Senju: Holy crap! Is he insane? He taught Ninjutsu for less than half an hour, and then spent an entire hour talking about the Will of Fire! Is he here to teach his apprentices or to brainwash them?]

[Madara Uchiha: My head is throbbing from listening to this! Doesn't his mouth get dry?]

[Hashirama Senju: I must say, being able to talk so eloquently is quite an art! Thinking back to my Will of Fire, it could be summed up in just four words: protect your comrades! I never imagined they'd take the Will of Fire to such extremes now!]

[Izuna Uchiha: I'm really worried that Makoto Ito might get brainwashed too...]

At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi finally finished his brainwashing.

"Cheng! Do you remember what I just said?"

Makoto Ito simply waved his hand...

"Absolutely! Where leaves are flying, the fire will spread uncontrollably! It will set the entire village ablaze and burn all the trees!!!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi was stunned once again by Makoto Ito's words...

He reached out and smacked Makoto Ito hard on the head!

"Judging from how sleepy you were just now, I know you didn't listen carefully to what I said! It's called 'Where the Konoha dance, the fire will also burn!' It's not that the fire was out of control!"

Makoto Ito simply waved his hand dismissively.

"They're all the same, fire is ever-burning, it's just that it can't be controlled, it's all equally bright!"

And so, Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head helplessly. It seemed his task of brainwashing his subordinates was far from over...

[Izuna Uchiha: Uh... I take back what I just said. Even if we've been brainwashed, I doubt Makoto Ito will be. What the hell is this: where leaves fly, fires can't be controlled!]

[Madara Uchiha: Pfft, hahahahahaha! I can't take it anymore, I'm dying of laughter! I feel like I've laughed more in my entire life since the Chat Group came along! What the hell?! The fire will set the whole village ablaze, burning all the trees! I'm dying of laughter! Is this the legendary Will of Fire? It's truly terrifying!]

[Hashirama Senju: Uh... is the Will of Fire now just about burning wood?]

[Tobirama Senju: Shut up, bro! Stop showing off your intelligence!!!]

And so, Hiruzen Sarutobi finished his lesson for the day, leaving him bewildered several times. Makoto Ito, on the other hand, learned nothing, since he already knew everything Hiruzen Sarutobi was teaching him!

After the two parted ways, Hiruzen Sarutobi returned to his office and continued his spying! Meanwhile, Makoto Ito wandered aimlessly through the streets. After all, he knew that Kakashi Hatake was always late; if he went now, wouldn't he just be sunbathing with Naruto? He'd rather have a good meal first!

I've decided, let's go eat Ichiraku Ramen!

I have to say, the Ichiraku Ramen that runs throughout the entire Naruto storyline tastes really good!

Makoto Ito had eaten there several times before, and had even carefully observed his uncle, Otsutsuki Ichiraku! He wanted to see his eyes to see if he was really from the Otsutsuki Clan. However, no matter how Makoto Ito observed, Otsutsuki Ichiraku always had squinted eyes, and he couldn't see his eyes at all!

It has to be said, those with squinty eyes are all monsters!

"Uncle! Give me a super deluxe, supreme-grade tonkotsu ramen!!!!"

Otsutsuki Ichiraku stood smiling in front of his ramen shop...

"Cheng boy! How many times have I told you, I'm not your uncle! Why do you call me uncle? I remember you didn't call me that before!"
