While Third Hokage was sizing up Uchiha Hikari, Uchiha Hikari was also sizing up Third Hokage.
This Leader from Ichimura wearing Mishin Robe has no dignity at all. He looks like a kind grandfather from his neighbor. However, Uchiha Hikari is not fooled by the superficial appearance.
Intuition told her that the old man in front of her was not weak, at least at the level of Uchiha Clan Head.
However, Third Hokage's name was Hiruzen Sarutobi, which did concern her. She remembered that there was a Sarutobi Clan in within the Land of Fire, but the strength of the Sarutobi Clan could not be compared with Senju and Uchiha.
How come in the era of Ninja Village, there is still a Ninja from the Sarutobi Clan.
Could it be that Senju and Uchiha are fighting each other?
At this time, Third Hokage also woke up from his meditation. He slowly moved his eyes away from Uchiha Hikari and returned to Youhu. He asked curiously, "Youhu, Uchiha Hikari is the Ninja you brought back, so there is no big problem with the identity."
"I want to know, what are you going to do with her next? Send her to Ninja School to study like Karin? Or just let her become a Ninja?"
Youhu said without hesitation, "I plan to let Xiaoguang sit in on Ninja School when he has nothing to do. She will still be by my side as my guard. She will be indispensable in future battles with Akatsuki."
After hearing Youhu's arrangements for Uchiha Hikari, Third Hokage had no objection to it.
In his opinion, what kind of strength Uchiha Hikari has is just because Youhu wants to stay with this girl Uchiha. After all, Uchiha Hikari looks about the same age as Youhu, and they are also very beautiful.
He also often used this method when Genin was divided into classes to make two boys become stronger in order to compete for the favor of their peers.
In comparison, what he cares more about is the harvest from this trip to Kirigakure.
Thinking of this, Third Hokage opened the task report submitted by Youhu and began to read it carefully.
The mission report records that Zabuza failed to attack Mizukage Building and was recruited by Youhu. It also records that Youhu and others defeated Third Mizukage and Uchiha Madara and successfully gained the friendship of Kirigakure.
When I saw this, Third Hokage was quite satisfied.
After Youhu helped Kirigakure defeat Uchiha Obito this time, the village will be able to receive help from Kirigakure when fighting against Akatsuki in the future.
After all, if Kirigakure is really completely controlled by Akatsuki and becomes a minion of Akatsuki,.
The two controlled Jinchuriki will become extremely difficult opponents, and it is easy for Tailed Beast chaos like Nine-Tails' Rampage to be staged in the village again.
However, the identity Youhu showed in front of Fourth Mizukage and Genji still made Third Hokage a little dissatisfied.
Youhu and Uchiha actually claim to be First Lord and Successor of Teacher Tobirama. They also say that Konoha is the same as Kirigakure and is just a partner of Night Organization.
But after thinking about it carefully, Third Hokage also understood the benefit of saying this.
If Youhu directly states that Night Organization is an affiliated organization of Konoha, and allows Kirigakure to cooperate with Night Organization, then Kirigakure will be inferior to Konohagakure.
Although the village was able to suppress Kirigakure with temporary force, it was inevitable that gaps would arise between the two sides.
This gap can easily be magnified at critical moments and become a fatal threat.
And Youhu's statement can at least give Kirigakure a little fantasy, and will not leave Kirigakure with no possibility of improvement.
Judging from this treatment, Youhu has indeed learned the essence of Teacher Tobirama.
And to take a step back, aren't the Ninjas who received education at Ninja School all the Successors of First Lord and Teacher Tobirama?
Continue reading below.
After helping Fourth Mizukage eliminate Illusion Technique, Youhu and Kai began to chase the fleeing Obito.
On the way, Kai met one of Seven Ninja Swordsmen, Kisame holding Samehada. In his impression, the owner of Samehada should be someone else.
According to the rules of Seven Ninja Swordsmen, Kisame should be stronger than the previous one, otherwise it would not have been possible to stop Kai for so long.
After all, Kai is not an ordinary Jonin. He is already among the top few in the village in terms of hard power, and he is loyal to the village and Will of Fire.
Placing it in the Youhu team is also to regulate the behavior of Youhu.
Youhu's loyalty is unquestionable, but it always gives people some unexpected surprises, or shocks.
Keep reading.
After Youhu defeated the fleeing Obito, he did not successfully kill him. Instead, he accidentally bumped into the laboratory established by Orochimaru in Land of Water. Not only did he meet Orochimaru, he also met Danzo.
In the end, Wood Style defeated Orochimaru and Danzo, and rescued Uchiha Hikari.
After seeing this news, Third Hokage was silent for a long time.
He thought that the last time Jiraiya saw Orochimaru and Danzo staying together was just a coincidence. This time Youhu also saw the two staying together, which basically proved that there was a close cooperative relationship between the two and they had been secretly conducting experiments on Kekkei Genkai.
And after leaving the village, their behavior became even more unscrupulous.
From the perspective of Hokage, Danzo and Orochimaru have defected from Konoha, and everything they have done has nothing to do with Konoha. Even if they are killed by Ninja from other ninja villages, Konoha still has to express gratitude and pay a large bounty.
But from the perspective of a friend and teacher, he still hopes that Danzo and Orochimaru can change their ways.
After sighing softly in his heart, Third Hokage turned to the end. It said that Uchiha Hikari defeated Six-Tails Jinchuriki and made Kirigakure loyal to Night Organization, and was willing to send Jonin to Konoha to discuss cooperation matters.
This news shocked Third Hokage.
He even suspected that he had seen it wrong, and couldn't help but look at Uchiha Hikaru, who showed a confused expression.
It wasn't Youhu that defeated Six-Tails Jinchuriki, but Uchiha Hikari defeated Six-Tails Jinchuriki.
It seems that Youhu's talk about letting Uchiha Hikari serve as a guard was not nonsense. Uchiha Hikari really has the strength to fight against Akatsuki. When did Orochimaru and Danzo cultivate such monsters?
Why didn't you say it earlier if you have such a stable ability to cultivate talents? Why didn't you conduct human experiments within a reasonable range and calm down the darkness in your heart?
[Your Lie Uchiha Hikari is Orochimaru's experimental subject "causing Hiruzen Sarutobi's emotional fluctuations, and he is convinced of this", reward 100 Deception Points]
"Oh, there's an unexpected surprise."
Youhu watched Third Hokage keep changing his expression due to his mission report, and suddenly the system prompt sounded in his mind, and he couldn't help but smile.
In order to conceal the identity of Uchiha Hikari, he made up an identity at will that was also recognized by Third Hokage.
Although the rewards are not much, mosquitoes are still meat no matter how small they are. If you want to become a real Otsutsuki, you still need to accumulate these daily.
After reading the mission report, Third Hokage asked Youhu, Kakashi and Kai about the specific experience.
After receiving a confirmed answer, he waved his hand to indicate that the others could leave.
After Hokage Building walked out, Might Guy immediately took away Kakashi in the name of a discussion, leaving Uchiha Hikari alone next to Youhu.
At this time, Uchiha Hikari had taken off his mask, staring at Youhu with a pair of black eyes, and said with a raised mouth, "Youhu, you haven't told me yet, why Hokage of Konohagakure is a Sarutobi Ninja, I thought it would be a Senju Ninja."
"But Sarutobi Ninja is just as annoying as Senju Ninja."
"Then if Uchiha becomes Hokage, wouldn't you hate it anymore?"
Youhu knows that Uchiha Hikari was sealed by the Senju Clan and Sarutobi Clan in the past, so he has always complained about this Ninja Clan. He only showed such an unhappy expression when he saw Third Hokage.
Uchiha Hikari shook his head and said with a very serious face, "No, I hate Uchiha becoming Hokage even more. If Uchiha becomes Hokage, this quiet and peaceful village will fall into chaos soon."
"I know Uchiha very well, Uchiha is a bunch of crazy people."
Hearing Uchiha Hikari comment on the Uchiha Clan, Youhu's eyes lit up and he nodded and said, "I agree with this very much. Uchiha is a group of lunatics! That's why I never planned to become Hokage."
"Just you?"
Uchiha Hikari glanced at Youhu, thinking of Youhu's strength, he stopped talking.
Seeing that Uchiha Hikari was silent due to the difference in strength, Youhu smiled and said immediately, "After the mission is over, after finally being able to rest for a while, I will take you to the street to buy some clothes, but I don't know your hobbies and sizes, so you can choose whatever you want."
"Don't worry, as Konoha Jonin I still have some savings."
"I don't want your money--"
Uchiha Hikari still wanted to be tough, so he thought for a moment and said, "I should be paid for working at Konoha. I will pay it back to you immediately after my remuneration comes down."
Youhu smiled without saying a word and led Uchiha Hikari to the busy streets of Konoha.
As soon as we walked into Konoha Streets, Uchiha Hikari, we were attracted by the dazzling shops. Soon we came to a snack shop and looked eagerly at the pineapple buns inside.
Youhu didn't waste any time, he just paid the boss to pack two portions, one for himself, and the other for Uchiha Hikari to eat.
Eating soft and glutinous pineapple buns, Youhu walked towards the clothing store with Uchiha Hikari, thinking about what kind of clothes would be better for Uchiha Hikari.
Is it the same white kimono as the youth Sasuke? Or the same fire pattern white robe as the youth Naruto?
You can't be like Kakashi and wear a green Jonin vest every day.
Unlike Youhu who was confused, Uchiha Hikari quickly picked out his clothes. He was wearing a completely black kendo outfit. After putting on his clothes, he looked very capable.
Seeing this outfit, Youhu said with some surprise, "Xiaoguang, I thought you would choose better clothes. Kimonos and casual clothes are quite good."
"Why should we wear nice clothes?"
Uchiha Hikari said with a strange look, "Those beautiful clothes are burdensome and will affect my speed of drawing the sword. Ninja Shouldn't the choice of clothes be considered for combat?"
Youhu was silent for a while and finally said, "You are right."
Uchiha Hikari continued to choose clothes, and after choosing a few more clothes that could perfectly blend into the night and jungle, he said loudly, "Youhu, I have finished shopping. Where should we go next?"
While Youhu was paying, he looked at Uchiha Hikari who had put on new clothes and said, "Let's go back to the clan first. Your return to Konoha is also a big event for the family. You must at least inform Uchiha Clan Head."
"Notify Uchiha Clan Head? Your strength is not Clan Head?"
Uchiha Hikari frowned, thinking of the past memories, his face became gloomy. "The family is really suppressing you, otherwise how could you defect to the Sarutobi Clan based on your strength?
"My family is suppressing me?"
Youhu smiled softly and said calmly, "The previous Clan Head was indeed a bit targeted at me, but I have led people to overthrow him. Now Clan Head is my subordinate. If you are willing, I can let him meet later."
"No see--"
Uchiha Hikari shook his head, and then said, "Aside from protecting you, I don't want to get involved with other Uchiha. Didn't you also say that my identity needs to be kept secret?"
"Alright."
Youhu also knows Uchiha Hikari's past experience and chooses to let Uchiha Hikari take its course. However, if there is a chance in the future, he will still let Guang meet Tiehuo, Shisui and others to discuss a plan to deal with Sage of Six Paths.
Just when Youhu was about to lead Uchiha Hikari back to his clan, several figures in the distance caught his attention.
Not far away, a tall white-haired man was strolling on the street with several Ninja School students, looking very leisurely.
The tall white-haired man is none other than Jiraiya, the half-teacher of Youhu.
Who else could be staying next to Jiraiya besides Uzumaki Naruto? However, the appearance of the other two people surprised Youhu.
They are Indra Reincarnation Sasuke, and Sakura who I have caught up with them.
Forget about Naruto, he is the son of Fourth Hokage and the contemporary Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. Jiraiya stayed in the village for so long without performing a mission this time just to teach Naruto.
But why do Sasuke and Sakura also appear here? This is a bit strange.
Walking towards Jiraiya, Youhu took the initiative to say hello, "Long time no see Jiraiya Tianren, do you still remember the novel you owe me?"
Jiraiya heard Youhu's reminder and said with some embarrassment, "I'm sorry Youhu, I'm really busy these days. I really don't have time to write a book."
Youhu shook his head and said, "It's okay Jiraiya, I'm very patient. What you taught Naruto is more important than my novel. But if you continue to delay like this, I feel that I will become the mastermind behind Ninja World earlier than I am in your novel."
"If I go astray because of this, it will be Jiraiya's fault."
"----"
Jiraiya was silent for a few seconds, not knowing what to say. He was just procrastinating. As for being accused of such a big crime, he had to face the threat from Son of Destruction.
Thinking of this, Jiraiya said casually and perfunctorily, "Youhu, it's not that I don't write, I just write slowly, rhythmically, and wait until necessary. Don't worry, I can definitely finish it in half a year at most."
