The Sandaime also thought that this method of recruiting disciples was very good, as it could allow the disciples' enthusiasm to attract Orochimaru.
What Danzo is doing is not the right way at all.
"It's a pity that Asuma is such a disappointing kid, otherwise I would have arranged for him to be given to Orochimaru."
Speaking of this, Minato Namikaze felt a little embarrassed. It was really difficult to persuade the father and son to resolve the issue.
Basically everyone knows that Asuma has been having a very unhappy relationship with his old father recently. It is said that the boy was accusing the Sandaime-sama of having an impure will of fire.
The most taboo thing is to let children go to the battlefield, which violates...
Anyway, the beating was very severe, with the man being hung on a tree.
The fourth generation also has a gossipy heart. It is said that he even pulled out the monkey demon later. It was only because of the desperate protection of Biwako-sama that one of the legs of this stupid child was saved... The other leg was already broken.
The matter of accepting a disciple really irritated the third generation.
Other people's children have made great achievements in the Kirigakure battlefield, and when they come back, they can impress Orochimaru's arrogant disciple.
My own...
"You go back first, I'll leave Orochimaru to me."
"Yes."
Standing up, Elder Sarutobi planned to personally persuade Orochimaru to accept a disciple, and to go out for some fresh air.
Chapter 46: Persuading Orochimaru to accept a disciple
"Orochimaru. How are you doing?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen came to Orochimaru's house with a smile on his face, and he didn't care whether there was cold tea on the table and drank it all in one gulp.
This was the first time he saw his apprentice after he took over the position of Hokage. With his keen sense, he could sense that Orochimaru had undergone some strange changes.
It seemed that the dark and corrupt smell on him when he was hanging out with Danzo had dissipated a lot.
"If you ask me how I am doing, I can only say it's OK. The project was stopped, the position was gone, and I have nothing to do."
The smile on Hiruzen's old face could no longer be maintained, and this was something that both he and Minato had neglected.
The main reason is that Orochimaru’s identity is a bit special.
He is a good brother of the 4th Hokage and the former commander, so his status is naturally very high. In terms of merit, he is not much inferior to Minato, and in terms of position, he is even higher than Minato.
So what kind of job to assign him now is a difficult problem for the entire Konoha.
Having a man who almost became the 4th Hokage entrenched in the village is a test for both Minato and the existing political system.
Even though Orochimaru's influence was ignored in the later stages of the war, it did not dissipate much.
Putting him in a lower position would be a bit too insulting and not in line with the meaning of the Will of Fire.
It was also very embarrassing that after Minato stopped the experiments applied by the Root, Orochimaru accidentally had nothing to do in the village.
Not only was the job cancelled, but even my hobbies were banned, which was a bit of suppression.
Then this time of recruiting disciples is a good opportunity to focus on the disciples. The war is over.
Wouldn't it be more beautiful to cultivate a new generation to add fuel to the will of fire?
Konoha's talent pool is seriously insufficient at the moment. Too many young ninjas were pushed onto the battlefield as children and suffered heavy casualties.
Even if there were geniuses among them, they had no chance to grow, which led to shocking data being compiled during the post-war inventory.
These data cannot be made public either. That would be a betrayal of the two founders of Konoha, and this matter itself is a subversion of the Will of Fire.
In front of Orochimaru, Hiruzen used his experienced politician's face to downplay the matter.
"Hehehe, are you planning on taking in an apprentice soon?"
Orochimaru is immune to friendly smiles. After years of getting along with each other, he still knows the true face of the person in front of him.
"If you have anything to say, just tell me directly."
"How about Uchiha Shisui?"
"He's quite capable, and very smart. He's a true Uchiha."
The real Uchiha is Orochimaru's evaluation of Shisui, which is a very high evaluation.
"Would you like to take him in as your apprentice? Minato... The village is planning on accepting the Uchiha back in.
As the inheritor of the will of fire, it would be great for you to take in another apprentice. Our Konoha Village has always been a team of three.
If you only accept one, Hongdou will lack company. And I am also worried that you are always alone. Lack of friendship will gradually make people become lonely.
The will of fire will burn more fiercely when it is bound.
Think about the time when you, Tsunade, and Jiraiya studied together. That was a really wonderful time."
First, he explained the righteousness of the Will of Fire and the rules of the ninja world, then Red Bean's emotional growth was shown, and finally, the emotional card of the three of them studying together in the past was played.
It can be said that the progress is logical and well-founded. His many years of career as a Hokage have made Hiruzen more experienced in handling some things.
After hearing what Hiruzen said, Orochimaru felt a little bored. It turned out that the so-called strongest Hokage was also under the control of a person thousands of miles away. Noah had even calculated this step.
"It's troublesome to accept a disciple. The Uchiha clan is unsure of what will happen in the future."
Hiruzen still expressed his understanding. At present, the situation seemed to be going well, but what if the Uchiha group of psychopaths did something else in private? It was not impossible that it would implicate the teacher.
It is clearly stated that Uchiha Shisui is Shisui, and he is treated differently from others.
"For Konoha's sake, you should accept this apprentice."
……
Orochimaru almost laughed. I really accepted him for Konoha.
Leng Jun, who has excellent acting skills, still maintains his aloof attitude and makes an embarrassed expression.
Finally, he let out a long sigh.
"Let me read the Book of Sealing for a few days. There are a few jutsu that interest me. Also give me some of the Second-Daime's notes."
This means that Orochimaru agreed, and Sarutobi Hiruzen also agreed to this condition directly.
Orochimaru has read a lot of the Book of Sealed Ninjutsu, and there are only a few ninjutsu left.
As for the second generation's notes, naturally only people like Orochimaru could understand them, and they were kept in the warehouse gathering dust most of the time.
Except for myself, a doctor of ninjutsu, who can still make use of some of his experience, the others... are too far behind the second generation.
The various data and deductions involved are really beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.
As for the record of the ninjutsu of the God of Ninja World...
If you were the type who counts everything by clasping your hands together, the statistics would be finished on about two sheets of paper.
If you put it in the middle of the street, no one would pick it up and treat it as a treasure.
The styles of Tobirama-sama's ninjutsu experience and the first-generation ninjutsu experience are really very different.
As for the right to use these materials, it is not a problem for the fourth generation.
At this time, Orochimaru had a new request.
"After they complete their basic training, I might take them out for training. I hope there won't be any strange comments in the village by then. I don't mind, but the Uchiha clan might be worried that I've kidnapped the child."
"What kind of experience needs to be specifically mentioned?"
"The kind that Jiraiya and Tsunade have, the disciples can stay in Konoha if they don't want to."
Hiruzen's face froze. What does this mean? Are you leaving Konoha too?
"Teacher, is it really okay for me to stay here?"
This rhetorical question made the Sandaime look a little ugly. Although it sounded unpleasant, it was indeed the fact.
If Orochimaru stayed in the village, it would be difficult to arrange things, just like it would be difficult for Minato to command Jiraiya.
The old man tapped his pipe, feeling a little melancholy.
"Well, you are all grown up now. I won't say anything if you have your own ideas."
"By the way, since it's a three-person team, you're still short of a disciple. Would you like to consider... Asuma?"
"I wouldn't mind taking him out of the village for training. It's fine even if he can play for a few more years."
The third generation had a good idea. Since Asuma, the small account, had been ruined, it would be better to send him to Orochimaru for some high-pressure training.
Fortunately, there is an older son who is relatively obedient, although his talent is a little lacking.
And even if I really go out of the village to gain experience for a long time in the future, it would be a good opportunity to broaden my horizons instead of always talking about nonsense like the new will of fire.
He has already investigated and found that many of his ideas came from his contact with the author named Adam.
But he had also read Adam's books, and could only say that what he wrote was a very ideal will of fire, even more radical than Konoha's.
A lot of the content also contains praise and admiration for the Third Hokage.
This...how to put it, a fanboy of mine wrote some very ideal things, but was foolishly taken seriously by his own son. This is like shooting himself in the foot.
Chapter 47: Shisui is in the bag
He was so angry that he couldn't help but hug her.
At the same time, I also want to talk to the author named Adam. He writes very well. Don’t write like this next time.
Then Hiruzen saw the strange expression on Orochimaru's face.
In fact, what Orochimaru was thinking was that your son had already been easily fooled by Noah, and it would be embarrassing for me to accept such a disciple.
I already had one Red Bean because of the favors from my old subordinates and their years of pleading. What's the big deal about taking in another Asuma...
Is this to equalize my IQ?
He felt exhausted by the combination of a genius and two drags, and Shisui might even want to die.
Although Orochimaru's expression was only slightly strange, Sarutobi stubbornly believed that it was a mockery.
The anger in my heart suddenly rose up. Has Asuma's story spread throughout Konoha? That abominable and unfilial son!
He suppressed his anger and said to the snake with a forced smile.
"Forget it, Asuma, I'll teach you myself. You can choose one among the civilian ninjas. You know the principle."
"Okay, I understand. I will choose an apprentice that I think is suitable."
Then the Third Hokage went home angrily. He felt that he had once again lost his dignity as a teacher in front of his disciple Orochimaru. Die, Asuma!
The fourth generation was in a good mood. The third generation was indeed very proud.
The relationship between the master and the disciple is simply beyond words, but is Orochimaru really so easy to talk to... He doesn't try to become the fourth-generation hero if he is told not to, and he accepts him as a disciple if he is asked to.
I'm so envious. My disciple Kakashi often falls into the troubles of ordinary geniuses and is much weaker in emotional matters.
Top geniuses like Orochimaru can see through the fog. The gap is too big.
But why did you start beating Asuma again after you got home? He is already a Chunin in Konoha after all. How can he go on missions if you beat him like this?
Never mind, these are just small matters.
Minato turned around and called Uchiha Fugaku.
"The matter with Orochimaru-senpai has been resolved. What remains is the Uchiha matter."
Fugaku said he understood. The Hokage had already done this much and the rest depended on the attitude of himself and others.
So on this day, as the clan leader, he went to find Orochimaru in person on behalf of Shisui's predecessor.
The two of them were actually comrades-in-arms, but they just didn't communicate much. This time, Orochimaru's style was still very simple.
I don't want to waste too much energy on this kind of thing, so if you want to become a disciple, you should hurry up.
Fugaku also understood the style of the former commander-in-chief, so he would naturally take out the Uchiha collection as a gift for his apprenticeship.
When Shisui knew that he had to become Orochimaru's disciple, he was also a little surprised. Being able to become a disciple of the Three Ninjas is indeed a great thing, in terms of status.
To some extent, he can be considered to be a fellow student of the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze.
