Minato's New Tool Person

Chapter 28: Toneri, the New Tool Person [Seeking Recommendation Tickets]

"I see!

You've actually done such in-depth research on the 'Will of Fire'! Good! Good! Very good!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi used three "goods" in a row to express his praise for this matter.

He knew Toneri trained hard usually, and he didn't expect him to have time to study the books titled Konoha's Will of Fire, which he himself had written.

For some unknown reason, Hiruzen Sarutobi felt like he had found a kindred spirit, a friend beyond age.

He just wanted to say one thing to Toneri.

You understand me!!

Toneri nodded firmly.

Even if he hadn't read Hiruzen Sarutobi's books, he could still give a long speech about the 'Will of Fire'. Let alone the fact that he had taken the time to memorize the key points.

Don't underestimate the education Toneri had received, don't underestimate his memorization skills.

Although Hiruzen Sarutobi's writing was indeed long and watery, his ability to pad word count was definitely passed down from someone!

But I'm going to eat this 'Will of Fire' pesticide! No one can stop me!

He patted Toneri's shoulder with satisfaction, "When you get to the Ninja Academy, study hard and get along with your classmates!"

After speaking, he sat back in his seat and continued, "You can go back now. I'll send someone to take you to the school when the time comes."

"Okay, thank you, Third Hokage Uncle," Toneri obediently left the Hokage Office.

Every time he heard "Uncle," Hiruzen Sarutobi felt a silent mockery.

He slowly shook his head, casting aside the unrealistic thoughts in his mind, the smile on his face gradually subsided. "Continue monitoring him. Tell me in detail what he does and who he meets every day. However, you don't need so many people. Temporarily withdraw one small team and leave one team."

In the shadows of the corner, two Anbu Ninjas wearing masks appeared and knelt on one knee before Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Neither of them spoke.

As long as the mission was given, no matter the difficulty, they would not refuse until the mission was completed or they sacrificed themselves.

"Also, why haven't Orochimaru and the others returned yet?"

Speaking of Orochimaru, Jiraiya, and Tsunade, his three disciples, Hiruzen Sarutobi was filled with pride even if his face showed no expression.

"The Communications Department has received information on Lord Orochimaru and placed it on your desk, Third Hokage."

The voice of one of the Anbu captains, devoid of any emotion, rang out.

Only then did Hiruzen Sarutobi notice that a scroll had appeared on his desk.

He had been too engrossed in the crystal ball just now and hadn't noticed.

"Cough, cough, alright, you can go down now."

The two Anbu captains nodded and disappeared from the office.

He opened the scroll and read Orochimaru's simple few sentences explaining their situation. Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't help but frown.

Although the three of them had barely survived the encounter with the demigod Hanzo of the Salamander and earned the title of Sannin, they had become famous throughout the Shinobi World.

But that battle was indeed fierce, especially the Salamander's poison. Even with Tsunade present, they had to recuperate for a long time before fully recovering.

This was not the main point. The main point was that Jiraiya, that guy, had developed a soft heart and planned to stay in the Land of Rain for a while to teach some orphans from the Land of Rain, which was why their return date was repeatedly postponed.

"Jiraiya..." Hiruzen Sarutobi rubbed his temples with a headache.

Orochimaru was still more reliable...

As his own strength began to decline, Hiruzen Sarutobi had already started considering his successor.

And for disciples to inherit the mantle had always been a tradition of the Hokage lineage.

After "capturing" fifty percent of Hiruzen Sarutobi's heart, Toneri happily returned to the small forest where he usually trained.

The environment here had changed a lot compared to when he first came.

The most obvious change was the clearing in the middle, which served as his basic Taijutsu training ground, complete with wooden posts for punching and targets for throwing practice...

During this period, Toneri's ninja tool throwing accuracy couldn't be called super precise, but at least he had some aim now.

In addition, his Hand Seals were now almost one hundred percent accurate. Not to mention speed, at least he wouldn't fail his Ninjutsu due to inaccurate Hand Seals.

Next was to gradually increase the speed of his Hand Seals.

Upon entering the small forest, he found that someone else had appeared in the forest that was originally exclusively his!

A ninja wearing a white hoodie, with a head full of golden spiky hair and a forehead protector.

When Toneri saw this person, the person also noticed him.

His blue eyes held a hint of surprise, and the corners of his lips turned up slightly, forming a very sunny smile.

Upon seeing the person's appearance clearly, Toneri's heart trembled!

My damn youth, which has nowhere to go, seems to be waving at me.

Minato Namikaze!

Konoha's little sun!

The golden flash that will make the entire Shinobi World tremble in the future! (The word "flash" will definitely become stars, so we'll use "golden" here, which is roughly the same meaning. Don't dwell on it too much.)

Also, Konoha's future Fourth Hokage.

Naruto's father.

There are too many adjectives and titles that can be bestowed upon him, but no matter what, they all represent the excellence of Minato Namikaze!

"Hello, my name is Minato Namikaze, is this your training ground?" Minato Namikaze asked politely.

Judging by the age of Shikaku and the others, Toneri knew that Minato Namikaze had already graduated from the Ninja Academy early.

He didn't expect to meet him here.

At this time, Minato Namikaze's talent had just begun to show, but he had no backing, nor had he been taken in as a disciple by Jiraiya, one of the Sannin. Even though he was known as a genius in Konoha, he wasn't a household name yet.

Toneri nodded and jumped down from the tree, standing in front of Minato Namikaze, unable to suppress his excitement.

In the entire Naruto world, the person Toneri was most impressed by was Minato Namikaze, who faced death with a smile, and Itachi, who died with a smile while saying, "My foolish little brother."

Seeing him in person today, he felt a bit emotional...

Minato Namikaze... is truly damn handsome!

Fortunately, he's only slightly less handsome than me...

But this was also the first time Toneri had met someone who could rival him in appearance.

Handsome people should be friends with handsome people. Shikaku... is more suited to be a subordinate.

Seeing little stars appearing in Toneri's eyes, Minato Namikaze was a bit confused about the situation.

Fortunately, Toneri quickly composed himself, and he didn't drool...

Slurp--

"Hello, my name is Toneri. This is indeed my training ground. Are you here...?" Toneri asked with a smile after regaining his composure.

Hearing this, Minato Namikaze grinned and scratched his head, revealing a slightly embarrassed smile.

"I see. Actually, I was originally training here too, but I've been busy with missions recently. I didn't expect... Since this is already your training ground, I'll find another place."

His golden hair didn't seem to get messy at all as Minato Namikaze scratched it.

Toneri felt a little jealous.

However, the current focus was clearly not on this.

He waved his hands repeatedly, "Since you were here first, I'm the latecomer. If you don't mind, why don't we share it? Training alone might be a bit boring, but if there are two of us, we'll definitely be more motivated."

He finally found a new tool, and one of this caliber, how could he let him go easily!

Having the future Fourth Hokage as his tool... it was actually a little exciting to think about...

Minato Namikaze looked at Toneri's attire and then at his forehead, confirming he wasn't a ninja. He was likely a child who hadn't graduated from the Ninja Academy yet.

After a slight hesitation, he finally agreed with a smile, "Okay."
