Chapter 138 The Beginning of the Road to Hokage

On the border of Konoha, the stronghold of the Uchiha clan.

The once glorious and lively hall many years ago is now damp and empty.

The walls are also covered with moss.

Itachi Uchiha was alone, sitting in the clan leader's seat on the high steps.

His eyes were as deep as water.

It seems that as long as people look at it, they will be attracted by those eyes and fall deeply into them.

Itachi Uchiha stared at this empty hall affectionately. His eyes were full of the prosperous and powerful scene where the clan members gathered here in the past.

At that time, the train of time passed slowly through the Minamiga River, and the 19-year-old Itachi Uchiha was here. Looking at it with affectionate eyes, there were shadows of him everywhere looking for someone to kill when he was 13 years old.

Uchiha Itachi sat quietly, coldly and indifferently, he

he.

He was really hungry.

Friends, I really can’t pretend anymore!

I had obviously made an agreement with Sasuke that day to meet at this place yesterday afternoon and settle everything in the past.

My own emotions and environmental atmosphere are brewing over and over again.

I went to the toilet three times in the middle, but I always ran to go.

For such a long time, Uchiha Itachi didn't dare to eat or sleep.

I was afraid that I would miss the day that I agreed with my dear brother to end my hatred and start a decisive battle.

At this time, more than thirty hours have passed since the agreed time!

But that kid Sasuke didn't even show up! !

The most exciting time was when I heard movement at the door. I quickly climbed back onto the stone bench and assumed a sitting posture.

But after waiting for twenty minutes, no one came in, so I went out to take a look.

Ok!

A few little squirrels!

Logically speaking, it shouldn’t be.

How could he, Sasuke, forget such a big thing?

But the crow that delivered the message was so tired from flying back and forth that he collapsed.

The crows all said that Sasuke's current situation was that he was eating and drinking without any abnormality.

Moreover, the crows took the trouble to reply to Uchiha Itachi over and over again.

There is no shadow clone, no blinding method, no transformation technique, it's just that they simply don't intend to come.

But, why is this?

Uchiha Itachi thought hard but couldn't come up with a clue.

"Gu——~"

Only the stomach was advising the Itachi God.

Otherwise, let’s collect our magical powers first.

I really can't stand it anymore.
-

Konoha, home of the Hokage.

After parting ways with Jiraiya, Uchiha Sasuke went to the Konoha cafeteria on his own to finish today's lunch.

Later, Sasuke returned to the Hokage's house.

After the lunch break, with nothing to do in the afternoon, Sasuke went to the backyard by himself and started practicing swordsmanship.

Speaking of training, such as the practice of ninjutsu, the fine feeling of chakra, and even the in-depth study of the Sharingan.

Compared with the above training, Sasuke found that what he liked the most was actually the training of swordsmanship.

I saw him dancing the "Kusanagi Sword·Moon Shadow" in an airtight manner, flying up and down.

The way of swordsmanship is to be like flowing clouds and flowing water, wherever you want.

After some practice, Sasuke didn't stick to the routine in his mind.

I just recall the Uchiha-style swordsmanship, whether it is similar or not, I just use it casually, and sometimes I can't help but be secretly proud of it when it goes smoothly.

After a while, Sasuke's body was drenched in sweat.

The whole person was filled with white air in the winter, and my heart felt so happy.

I practiced swordsmanship for half a day, and for a while I practiced nintaijutsu combined with the thunder escape attribute chakra.

With the blessing of the thunder attribute chakra, Sasuke's entire temperament became sharper, and his movement and sword skills became more agile and vigorous.

Halfway through the training, Sasuke suddenly remembered that day when he bought the "Kusanagi Sword: Moon Shadow", the Neko Granny had introduced it to him.

"The Tsukikage Kusanagi Sword is made from a millennium-old stone at the top of Unlei Gorge. It is integrated with the power of nature. It is very compatible with the three chakras of thunder, fire and water, and has a certain degree of growth. ."

During the practice just now, Sasuke felt vaguely in his heart that compared to a month ago, he was in the same place when he first got Tsukikage.

Compared with the initial use and practice, the combination of "Moon Shadow" and thunder attribute chakra has now become more convenient and smooth, and requires less chakra from oneself.

The sharpness displayed by the moon shadow has also been slightly improved.

Presumably, this is what Granny Cat calls growth.

Thinking of this, Sasuke thought, why not try to combine the fire attribute chakra with "Moon Shadow"?

Just do it, and after a few short attempts, Sasuke quickly found the trick.

In an instant, a blazing flaming blade appeared in his hand, looking so majestic.

Sasuke tried to swing as if he were practicing lightning-type nintaijutsu, and sparks flew in all directions.

But at the same time, the hilt of the sword in his hand became extremely heavy in comparison, and the movement was sluggish and sticky, which made people feel very unpleasant.

Sasuke stopped and thought quietly, going over the Uchiha-style swordsmanship in his mind.

Then, he stood up again, activated the chakra in his body, and once again covered the moon shadow with a layer of flames.

Uchiha-style swordsmanship: Sword Jump Flame!

I saw Sasuke's movements opening and closing, holding the flaming sword in his hand, drawing a long wave of flames in the air.

Honest, domineering, and powerful.

In contrast, the Moon Shadow Sword blessed by the thunder attribute is faster and sharper.

If you make a metaphor, "Moon Shadow" blessed by fire attribute chakra is more like a heavy sword, with greater power and stronger attack power.

The "Moon Shadow" blessed by the thunder attribute chakra is a tachi or lightsaber. Although it is not as powerful as the "Fire Sword", it is faster and the blade is sharper.

After realizing the difference, Sasuke felt overjoyed.

Facing different enemies, these two types of swordsmanship have more advantages and disadvantages.

Take the previous battle in the Kingdom of Water as an example. Facing the ANBU ninja Hamaguchi of Kirigakure, "Moon Shadow" with the blessing of thunder attribute was still able to take advantage.

But facing the thick-skinned three-tailed Jinchuuriki, if he had mastered the blessing of this fire-attribute ninjutsu, he would have been more powerful.

Thinking of this, Sasuke immediately used the shadow clone technique.

One person used the thunder attribute chakra, and the other used the fire attribute chakra. Both held the Kusanagi sword "Tsukikage" and started the battle drill.

Before you know it, the moon reaches the treetops, and the day has passed.

As for the unilateral forced agreement between some mental patients and him, Sasuke had already forgotten it and abandoned it thousands of miles away.

"Sasuke! Guess what type of chakra my test result today is?"

It was night, and Uchiha Sasuke, who had not cooked for a long time, was wearing an apron and was busy in the kitchen.

Uzumaki Naruto outside the door heard his voice first before seeing him.

I saw this yellow-haired boy shouting loudly outside the door before he entered the hall.

"what?"

Sasuke didn't look back and cut a peeled carrot into the pot.

"What to eat?"

Naruto, stinking of sweat, came closer and looked behind Sasuke.

"Miso soup."

Sasuke answered briefly.

"If you have nothing to do, you can peel a potato."

Sasuke encouraged the other person.

"Oh well."

Naruto obediently moved a small stool and sat aside to help.

"You haven't answered yet! Guess what kind of chakra I tested today?"

Halfway through peeling, Naruto suddenly remembered and shouted again.

"Lower your voice, you're making too much noise."

Sasuke complained.

"Fire escape?"

Then, Sasuke asked casually.

"Guess again!"

Naruto shook his head and shouted proudly.

"Whatever you want, bring the potatoes."

Although Sasuke was equally curious, he immediately refused to guess again after failing once.

He took the potatoes and continued cutting them into the pot, ignoring Naruto on the side.

"Hey! You're so boring."

Naruto leaned on the Nakajima platform aside, watching Sasuke's movements, he couldn't help but speak again.

"It's Feng Dun! Haha, you didn't expect it!"

"Oh, it's Feng Dun."

Sasuke nodded, as if that was the case.

"No, why aren't you surprised? Don't you know? Wind attribute ninjas are an extremely rare type!"

Naruto was very dissatisfied with Sasuke's reaction and shouted loudly.

"is it?"

Sasuke pushed Naruto away gently, took out a piece of tofu, and carefully cut it into pieces on the cutting board.

"is it?

"Let me tell you, get rid of the word '?'!! The Wind Release Ninja is the best! There may not even be one among a hundred ninjas!" Naruto tapped his fingers lightly on the island platform. Highlight this basic fact of what happened today.

"So, I am truly the cream of the crop, an outstanding ninja, hahahaha."

Naruto became happier as he talked and laughed proudly.

"Stop laughing, I can see your tonsils."

With a smile on his face, Sasuke pushed Naruto away again in disgust, put all the tofu into the pot, and closed the lid.

"Also, Teacher Asuma said that wind chakra is the most powerful chakra attribute change. It has the strongest attack power during close and mid-range combat!"

"Then what kind of chakra does Asuma-sensei have?"

Sasuke put the lid on the pot, freed his hands, turned around and asked Naruto.

"Asuma-sensei is also a wind attribute."

"Then the three of us have two wind attributes in total, which is not uncommon!"

Sasuke laughed.

"No, this, this, this, but if you put it to more people and reach more people, it will be very rare!"

Naruto was so anxious that he stuttered a bit when he spoke.

"Oh, if there are more people, then Temari seems to be a wind escaper, right?

"Also, the one we beat together, the tailed beast in Gaara's body? I remember if it used a move called Wind Release: Infinite Dust Breakthrough?"

"Also, what kind of ninjutsu did Moonlight Hayate die from?"

Sasuke squinted his eyes as he recalled.

"Oh, okay."

As Sasuke listed them one by one, Naruto's body became shorter and shorter, and the shadow behind him became heavier and heavier.

Until the end, the whole person became extremely depressed, and it seemed that he gradually agreed with Sasuke's statement in his heart.

"Well, speaking of it, those people are indeed the best ninjas in a hundred."

Although he was joking, as he listed them, Sasuke once again couldn't help but recall all the things that happened during the Chunin Exams.

I wonder if Temari is at peace with the Nara clan?

Will Yue Guangfeng's fiancée Maoyue Xiyan still go to express condolences at dusk?

Will Gaara, who has lost an arm, still cause trouble to himself in the future?

Recalling the battles with the Sunagakure ninjas and the trouble those wind escapes had brought to him, Sasuke couldn't help but sigh sincerely.

"what?"

After being taken on a rollercoaster of emotions by Sasuke, Uzumaki Naruto didn't know how to express himself.

Just when he looked up to confirm whether the other party was praising him, he saw Sasuke had already picked up the cooked soup pot and walked towards the dining table.
-

The next day, Konoha Hidden Village, on the roof.

"So, what do you think?"

Uchiha Sasuke was wearing black clothes today, rubbing the bestiality heart on his chest, and said to his friends beside him.

A young man dressed in white sat aside, looking at the ninja school in the distance. On the campus, a group of children were running and playing, just like they did back then.

Just now, Sasuke informed Hyuga Neji of the three proposals put forward by Jiraiya that day, and on the one hand, he synchronized the information in a timely manner.

On the other hand, I would also like to hear the advice of this friend and ally.

"Captain of the ANBU, serving as Jonin, a brand new organization"

Hyuga Neji repeated Sasuke's message with a shocked expression, as if he was trying his best to digest the above information.

"This is too exaggerated!!"

Neji suddenly shouted loudly, which startled Sasuke beside him.

"Although I know that you are Lord Jiraiya's disciple, even so, the speed of improvement now is too fast!"

Rao was fully expecting Sasuke to be promoted as soon as possible, but the current progress was still far beyond Neji's expectations.

"Wait, don't tell me, you are a jounin now."

Hyuga Neji suddenly thought of something, turned around suddenly, and asked Sasuke.

"."

Sasuke felt a little embarrassed and nodded slowly.

". It is said that we will wait until the direction is decided before making a unified announcement to the outside world."

"Jesus, a thirteen year old jounin"

Hyuga Neji opened his mouth in an exaggerated manner, looked up and put his right hand on his forehead.

"Ahem, that's nothing. It's said that Kakashi-sensei became a Jonin at the age of twelve."

Sasuke was very embarrassed by Neji's exaggerated appearance and tried to change the subject.

"But this is a time of peace! Kakashi-sensei and the others are seniors who participated in the Third Ninja War when they were young!"

"Didn't we also fight Sunagakure?"

Sasuke muttered under his breath.

He naturally knew that the scale between the two and the pressure on the ninja system in the village were completely different.

The reason why I say this is to say that it is a bit harsh.

"The biggest benefit of joining ANBU is your military exploits and prestige. Among every batch of ninjas, the best ones will often have experienced training during the ANBU period.

"And after you enter early, both your qualifications and your prestige among your fellow jounin will be of great help in the future.

"If you want to become Hokage, the recognition and support of these top combatants in the village can be said to be a very valuable political resource."

Faced with Sasuke's harsh words, Neji did not continue to pester him and turned around to analyze his own opinions excitedly.

"really."

Sasuke nodded and responded actively: "Moreover, if you enter the Anbu, you will definitely have a lot of mission opportunities, and you may fight against countless strong people."

Among the above three places, Sasuke's favorite was to enter ANBU to experience.

Deep down, Sasuke is still a ninja who is eager for challenges and has high morale.

Even if he didn't mention revenge, the opportunity to fight against a strong person would still make his blood boil.

"In comparison, being a Jonin is very boring when I think about it. I finally didn't have to do the work of finding cats and weeding, and now I have to go back with a new group of children. It's really boring."

Uchiha Sasuke continued to chat.

"No, no, no, no," Hyuga Neji shook his head like a rattle and explained to Sasuke seriously:

"You remember, in Konoha Hidden Village, serving as a Jonin, or leading a class of Jonin, in addition to being the leader of the genin, has a very, very important meaning."

"What's the meaning?"

Sasuke asked curiously.

"Why did you forget again! Do you still remember that the Third Hokage just died, and I was here to analyze for you who might become the Fifth Hokage?"

Hinata Neji said anxiously.

"Oh, master?"

Sasuke thought about it.

At that time, Neji analyzed a long section for himself and came to a conclusion by summarizing the patterns of previous Hokages.

If you want to become Hokage, you must have a close relationship with the previous generation of Hokage in terms of inheritance.

"But what does this have to do with me becoming the leading jounin?"

All Sasuke could think about was that his masters were Jiraiya and Kakashi, but he didn't think much about the next words.

"Hey, you still haven't turned the corner."

Hinata Neji finally saw that Sasuke's head was not working properly for once, and he couldn't help but snicker in his heart.

"If you want to become Hokage, you need to become the disciple of the previous Hokage."

Sasuke nodded, he already understood this.

"At the same time, the inheritance of Hokage needs to continue. This also means that if you want to become Hokage, then becoming a Jonin can be said to be your only way!

"We can't wait until you become Hokage before taking care of children, right?"

"Oh~ Got it!"

Sasuke suddenly realized.

Neji suddenly turned his head and stared at him closely, and laughed out loud.

"What laughing?"

Sasuke was confused.

"No," Neji turned around again and looked in the direction of the ninja school.

The children have finished their outdoor activities between classes.

The sound of reading was faintly coming from the classroom.

"I just feel like you've changed a lot since coming back from the Land of Water. Although I wasn't disgusted with becoming Hokage before, I don't seem to be as enthusiastic as you are now."

"is it?"

Sasuke also looked at the entire Konoha, and finally fixed his gaze on the Hokage Rock, which was engraved with the portraits of past Hokages.

"I think life is precious, and you should spend your time and energy on worthwhile things."

Sasuke said calmly.

"Becoming Hokage is not the goal, but helping you to free yourself from the fate of the caged bird is definitely something worth doing.

"Additionally, there were a lot of avoidable tragedies, and once I'm in that position, I'm going to do the best I can.

"The world is always changing, sooner or later, so let me change it!

"How it changes is up to me!"

As the words were spoken, Uchiha Sasuke also felt a surge of pride swelling in his chest.

At the beginning, when he heard Sasuke take the initiative to mention "helping him to free himself from the fate of a caged bird", Neji felt a warm current in his heart.

But then, as Sasuke spoke his words, Neji was also infected by his powerful aura.

Until the end, Neji seemed to have seen Uchiha Sasuke put on the Hokage's robe.

If it is said that the previous desire to help Sasuke become Hokage was purely for his own ideals in life.

So, from this moment on, Neji sincerely yearns for and hopes to help Sasuke realize the ideal world he just said!

　Shocked. Regarding the three route choices yesterday, 27 votes have been counted so far, and the result is nine votes to nine votes to nine votes. The mood is very complicated. emmm, that’s what I think. In fact, all three routes must be taken sooner or later. Danzo must definitely do it, and he must lead the class. Only the ANBU line can be taken or not. However, if we don't jump to "three years later" in the middle, it will be more solid after the Anbu experience is written. So, let’s announce the results now, and go to the ANBU first. Those who want to see the other two routes, don’t worry, the latter two routes will definitely come, allowing the children to grow older. ps: Hanabi will be the favored character.
