A quarter of an hour has passed since Ueno Kei entered the room, but Third Hokage still showed no sign of opening his mouth and still maintained the same posture, looking at the photo.
And Ueno Kei was not in a hurry, just standing quietly behind Third Hokage, waiting for Third Hokage to speak.
I don't know how much time passed, but a faint sigh sounded in the room, and an old voice sounded, "Qi, teacher, did I do something wrong back then? I shouldn't have been so merciful to Orochimaru?"
Third Hokage turned his head, with a sad look in his eyes, just like that.
Ueno Kei looked at Third Hokage's slightly sad eyes, and his throat moved, but he didn't know what to do. Did Third Hokage do something wrong back then? Judging from the consequences, it was indeed a mistake. Orochimaru was a traitor to Ninja. He not only used the ninjas who slaughtered his own village to study forbidden techniques.
In the end, he defected. In any case, the original Third Hokage should not have let go of Orochimaru. Moreover, at that time, Third Hokage was still at its peak, and Orochimaru's strength was not at its strongest. There is no doubt that Third Hokage could kill Orochimaru.
However, it was because of the hesitation and momentary intolerance in Third Hokage's heart that he let Orochimaru go, which ultimately led to the current situation. How much strength does the aging Third Hokage have left now?
And Orochimaru has been studying forbidden arts for decades, what level of strength has it reached now?
Returning to Konoha this time, what is the ultimate goal? To be honest, Ueno Kei really thinks that his teacher did something wrong. However, this kind of thing cannot come out of Ueno Kei's mouth at all. Not to mention, it is already this time. It is meaningless to turn over these old accounts for these things.
Therefore, Ueno Kei remained quiet as always and did not respond to Third Hokage's questions. Of course, not replying does not mean that there is no answer. Not answering itself is an answer. I believe that with Third Hokage's wisdom, he will definitely understand the meaning. What's more, Ueno Kei also knows that Third Hokage is actually just asking and answering himself.
Ueno Kei thought, Third Hokage should be well aware of the problems back then and the current situation.
Looking at the silent Ueno Kei, Third Hokage still didn't know the inner thoughts of his disciple. To be honest, in the past few years, Third Hokage asked himself whether his teachings to Ueno Kei were a bit biased. This disciple seemed too indifferent or cruel at times?
During those years when Anbu performed tasks, Third Hokage saw the results, and Ueno Kei did not leave even a single person alive in all the tasks performed by Ueno Kei.
It seems that Ueno Kei never hesitates to kill as long as there is a slight factor that can threaten the completion of the mission. Once, when Ueno Kei was performing a mission, several travelers passing by were killed because of it. In order to make the target people more alert, Ueno Kei took action to get rid of those travelers, even the young children and women who were weak. Ueno Kei could kill them very coldly.
At that time, when Third Hokage received the report, he couldn't believe his eyes. He actually trained his disciples like this. Was he right or wrong?
There is nothing wrong with not being soft on the enemy. However, if even unrelated people are attacked just because it may affect the completion of the mission, Ueno Kei's ruthlessness can be seen.
At that time, when Third Hokage looked at Ueno Kei, it was as if he could see the shadows of Orochimaru and Danzo in Ueno Kei.
This gave Third Hokage a chill in his heart. He already had such a disciple and teammate, and he didn't want Ueno Kei to become like them. It was even possible. At that time, Third Hokage was thinking about whether...
Later, what pleased Third Hokage was that Ueno Kei always maintained the softness deep in his heart when treating his own people. Not to mention Naruto, Kakashi, the people Ueno Kei knew.
Even if a teammate falls to death during a mission, Ueno Kei will go to the rescue without hesitation, even if he is bruised and bruised, this makes Third Hokage feel that his education is still correct.
It's just that some of Third Hokage's previous ideas are not suitable anymore.
Once, Third Hokage wanted to train Ueno Kei into another Fourth Hokage, another "shadow" who could become the pillar of the village. As long as his disciple A few years after Tsunade or Jiraiya becomes Hokage, Ueno Kei can accumulate enough prestige and strength to become the shadow of Konoha!
However, it seems now that although Ueno Kei did not go astray, did not become a person like Orochimaru, and did not do anything to anyone for the purpose like Danzo.
But in the end, Ueno Kei is still a little dark, but Hokage needs to be the light! Become the leader of the village with enough positive energy, and the people of the village also hope that such a leader will appear.
The first Lord First, and the later Fourth Hokage, are all like this. Hokage in all generations are symbols of light, and they are all the guardians of Konoha!
However, today's Ueno Kei cannot be described as bright, cruel, and indifferent, except that the ninjas of this village can feel the warmth from Ueno Kei's body.
The hostile ninjas in the outer village all had a sense of Ueno Kei and thought that Ueno Kei was a cold-blooded animal without any warmth.
Blood Asura, this is what Ueno Kei is now called in Ninja World.
Although Anbu always conceals his identity when performing tasks, this does not work for the top management of the five major villages. Moreover, Ueno Kei performs tasks so frequently and his actions are so obvious.
Now the five major villages have very detailed information on Ueno Kei.
Even someone in the underground exchange has put a price on Ueno Kei's head. I don't know if it is Mist Ninja or Cloud Ninja. The reward for Ueno Kei's head is as high as 30 million.
For such a jounin like Konoha, the price is already high. Moreover, recently when the news came out that Ueno Kei is a disciple of the third generation, the price of the bounty seems to have increased a bit.
Yes, Ueno Kei's cold side has been imprinted on the minds of today's Ninja World people.
Therefore, Third Hokage made some changes to Ueno Kei's original arrangements. Originally, he did not plan to go out with Ueno Kei so early. However, recently, for some unknown reason, Third Hokage always feels a vague sense of uneasiness deep in his heart, and even feels that the end is coming.
Third Hokage was a little eager to arrange some things. Naturally, when he talked to Jiraiya about Hokage's position, he became so urgent and serious, and only then did Jiraiya really realize that the old man was serious.
Now, facing Ueno Kei, Third Hokage is also very anxious.
"Qi, after a while, Jiraiya will go and get Tsunade back. No matter what, either Tsunade or Jiraiya will take over my position and become the fifth generation head. I hope you can become their biggest assistant." Third Hokage said slowly.
Ueno Kei nodded, there was nothing good about it. As a disciple of Third Hokage, these things were taken for granted. However, what happened next shocked Ueno Kei.
As soon as Third Hokage finished speaking, he threw something over and Ueno Kei caught it with his backhand.
It's just a token with the word "Dark" engraved on it!
