"Sandaime-sama, I wonder if I can ask you to be the judge this time? I will ask my personal bodyguards to host, and you can be a judge on the sidelines." Minato leaned on his desk and smiled at Said the Third Hokage on the sofa.
"I won't interfere! I can just watch the young people's battles. If you want justice, find someone younger." Hiruzen Sarutobi waved his hand and naturally declined the job.
In front of each village, the older generation of ninjas should not come out to exert pressure, otherwise they may inexplicably arouse the hatred of the older generation.
"That's it, okay. By the way, I haven't told you about Yu Ling's teammates yet." Minato raised his head slightly, deliberately making a mistake here.
However, there was a knock on the door.
"Who is it... uh, please come in." Although his chance to show off was interrupted, as the shadow of a village, he could still calm down this emotion easily.
"Yes, the Fourth Hokage." A slightly soft female voice came in. Her long flowing brown hair hung over the door handle, and her pale cheeks were no different from the mask.
"It's you. Sandaime-sama, this is Yu Ling's last teammate I'm talking about." Minato slapped his head, then remembered what the female ninja had reported, and introduced him to Sandaime as expected. "This is..."
"Yakumo! The little girl has grown so big... Oh, time! How is Yakumo doing now? A genius like you can't be buried!" "
Sandaime-sama... ...? Do you know..." Minato put down his arm raised in the air with some embarrassment, scratched his head and leaned back on the desk.
"Sandaime-sama...cough cough." Yakumo suppressed a difficult smile, but still couldn't help coughing.
"This child... I brought him from that family back then." Hiruzen smiled kindly, looking at the weak girl in front of him. "Your body still hasn't recovered after so many years."
"Well... that monster has always been in my body. If he doesn't leave, I won't recover." Yakumo's voice became smaller and smaller, and his head gradually became heavier. into the shoulders.
"Didn't I tell you... Yidu is not a monster, he is your talent! You are a once-in-a-century genius in your family. It's just that you don't have the ability to control such an outstanding talent now, so you will be betrayed by him. Replaced! He has the strength to kill Jonin, but his mind is still just that of a child... Phew. So, how did your training go?" Sandai spoke more and more urgently, and his speech speed was so fast that it made people mad. , his chest rose and fell violently, and he had to take a breath before continuing.
"Sandaime-sama...your efforts are in vain. After that, I never let the monster come out. Everyone is afraid of him..." Yakumo suppressed his physical weakness and suppressed a stiff smile.
Then, he leaned back uncontrollably and slowly smashed towards the door of the Hokage's room.
The door to the Hokage's room quietly opened.
"The Fourth Hokage, are you looking for me?" Mature appearance, childish voice. Calm thoughts, slightly ignorant movements...
He spread his hands on the spot, waiting for the weak girl to lie in his arms.
"Yu Ling! It's ready!" Yondaime didn't even look at Yu Ling, his eyes were fixed on Yakumo, for fear that something would happen to her.
"Fourth Generation Master...you came to me just to support her?" Yu Ling's face was full of embarrassment. He had not had much contact with girls, but he was holding someone inexplicably. The feeling was naturally self-evident. The metaphor is strange.
"Ah... well... no, no. Ahem. Oh, by the way, she is your teammate for the Chunin Exam." Minato scratched his head and walked towards Yu Ling step by step.
"My teammates? Those who took the chunin exam...why not directly promote Naruto and Sasuke? Their combat prowess is also top-notch among the genin, right?" Yu Ling is not like Naruto, who doesn't understand the ninja world at all. Condition. At least, he still knew something about the strength of each village's genin.
However, Yu Ling still felt a little conflicted in his heart when he rashly contacted people he didn't know.
"Naruto and Sasuke... they haven't graduated yet. Although under your guidance, their strength can be recognized by everyone, the Chunin Examination is a real-life competition. They have not experienced life and death. No. It's perfect for such a stage. Therefore, I have chosen two reliable teammates for you, who will definitely be able to send you to the finals."
"Are they reliable... But this one can't even stand on his own." Yu Ling opened his eyes coldly. Opening his Sharingan, he glanced at the chakra of the girl in his arms, and what he saw was the messy and unstable tendons.
"She... her body revolted because she awakened a special talent. Just a few years ago, a dark substance in her body materialized and robbed her body. So far, we have no solution. Method." Minato explained helplessly, but Yu Ling's sharp eyes gave him goosebumps. "Yu Ling, her illusion skills are very strong. As far as I know, you are better at frontal confrontation and containment, right? The teammate I arranged for you, she is responsible for control and remote assistance, and the other one is the main combatant And defense. I can say without hesitation that you can't beat the two of them."
At this point, Minato became more confident again, raised three fingers, raised his arm and put it next to his right ear, straightening his chest.
"Can't I beat him...Okay." Yu Ling relied on the strength of his waist and abdomen to stand up straight, leaned the girl in his arms against the wall, put away his Sharingan, and stood quietly in place.
"You... want to have a fight?" Minato bent down slightly as if teasing a child, put down his hand from his ear, and pressed it towards Yu Ling's head, but was dodged by the small step back.
At the door, an old man over fifty years old walked in.
"Hokage-sama, eh? I'm late, aren't you... Sorry, sorry. This young guy is the genius, right? Nice to meet you..." The old man first waved to the Third Hokage enthusiastically and nodded slightly towards Minato. , and then put all his attention on Yu Ling.
"I am Yu Ling Otsutsuki..." Yu Ling was a little speechless. Among the teammates assigned to him by the Hokage, one was an old man and the other was weak... Even he was not sure that he could protect the two of them from so many strong men. .
"Yu Ling, these are your two teammates. Now that they are all here, you can report in. Let me introduce you. The girl on your left is named Kurama Yakumo, who is good at illusions. The one on the right is Senior Kosuke Maruboshi , good at swordsmanship. The rest is up to you, come on." Minato raised his head meaningfully, turned around and walked back to his seat.
"Lord Hokage..."
"Xiaoyu Ling, these two are my top genin in Konoha. Both of them have the strength of jounin, but they are always unwilling to be promoted because they cannot overcome their inner demons. This time, they are also specially They came forward to help a genius in Konoha for the promotion. Go ahead, they are teammates you can rely on." The third generation remained silent and smiled. After seeing Yu Ling's unhappy face, he finally couldn't hold it back. opened his mouth.
"Grandpa... Okay, I understand. Then..."
"Yu Ling, you are the captain." Minato added, pouting towards the door like a guest.
"Yes." Yu Ling bowed slightly and walked out of the Hokage room first.
"Captain...I..." Yakumo called weakly, hung on the door handle, and rubbed out little by little.
Yu Ling had no choice but to turn back, put Yakumo on his back, and walked away without looking back.
"Both Hokage-sama, I take my leave."
"Hey Kosuke, please show yourself well."
"Yes, Sandaime-sama."
...
"We have arrived in Konoha."
"Huh? Does Konoha look like this? It really deserves the title of the strongest in the ninja world!"
"Be careful what you say, in other people's villages. , don't think that we genin can protect ourselves."
"Eh... ok, ok. But that's all it looks like. Let's become a chuunin and go back to glory!" "
I said, be careful what you say. Don't make enemies. Don't you know our strength in the village?"
"Our strength is indeed not that good, but Mr. Mizukage specially called us here, it must be because we are particularly strong in some aspects! Right, eh, you Let me say something!" The genin wearing the Kirigakure forehead protector pushed the blue-haired boy beside him who had been silent all this time, tilting his face in an attempt to attract his attention.
"Be quiet. I think Mizukage-sama asked us to come here because of our food." The white-haired boy continued to express his opinions calmly, pushing up his slowly sliding round glasses from time to time.
"You... bastard, you're talking nonsense! I am such a strong ninja, did you slander me like this? Do you mean... you are already scared? Then go back! At worst, we can gather a teammate here!" "
Hey ! Whose wild child is there, yelling on the street, very unqualified." A child of similar age to them, but from a different ninja village, was leaning against a tree, holding a small stone in his hand.
"Kuroge, why are you so arrogant? Are you from Sunagakure...do you want to make enemies with me, Kirigakure? I tell you, you don't have the ability yet!" "Don't talk if you have the ability
, a gentleman's true ability is to take action. ." The black-haired boy walked out of the shadow under the tree, with two big words for "death" written on his clothes. He put his hands in his pockets and walked towards Kirigakure and the others nonchalantly.
"Sark, don't be impulsive." An unusually low male voice came out. He looked like an old man with dislocated arms. He was bent over with his back, and pure white bandages were wrapped around and around, leaving only One eye is exposed.
"Toss, wouldn't it be more beneficial for us to get rid of a few opponents before the game? Don't forget, we were chosen by that man! We are very strong..." "
Sark! For the sake of the plan, don't do anything." Toss raised his arm and faced Sark threateningly.
"Sark, come back quickly and don't cause trouble. You don't want that man to be angry, right?"
"Ah... yes." He walked back reluctantly, but there was constant shouting behind him.
"Afraid? Look, I'll just say it! We must have special abilities..."
Unable to bear it, Sack turned around and said harsh words.
"Shut up. When we first meet, we are the ninjas of Sunagakure. Our purpose... is to destroy you!"
