Chapter 45
“Ah… I mean, we can communicate with each other about each other’s shuriken skills… Let’s see if there is any complementarity…”
“Oh~ that’s pretty much it, okay~”
“Well… Well, we’ll start special training tonight. We must practice our shuriken skills to the point where we can pose a long-distance threat to her before her next challenge.”
Desperately resisting the urge to smash Naruto, Sasuke finally endured: Well, as long as this idiot can attract Hinata’s attention at that time, and carry it for a while so that he won’t die at one touch, then He had the opportunity to secretly attack Hinata.
Kakashi, who was squatting on the roof, obviously stopped the words of the two in his ears. Bai Mao Junin shook his head helplessly. Although it was a good thing for the two to be allied, how could it be? Does it feel so unreliable?
But at this moment, Kakashi’s eyes suddenly changed, and then he quickly turned over and hid behind a water tower on the roof. In the sight of Bai Mao Junin, he found a ghostly man looking at the Uchiha mansion. Judging from the Konoha forehead guard on his head, this guy should be an active ninja of Konoha.
It seems that there are some small fish and shrimp running out to make trouble.
Squinting his eyes, Kakashi was not in a hurry to catch this guy who didn’t look like a good person. After all, the identity of the other party was also a Konoha ninja. To capture him, he needed a solid evidence.
Moreover, Kakashi’s eyes could not help but become solemn: If the other party is not for assassination, then perhaps, this is also a perfect opportunity to test the heart of Naruto and Sasuke.
Mizuki’s Trap
Just as there are good people in any group, there is no shortage of bad people.
As a Chunin of Konoha, Mizuki is undoubtedly the latter. He is a graduate of the ninja school in the same class of Iruka, but whether it is the secret evaluation of him by his superiors or himself, he is very clear that he is an extremely A vile and unscrupulous careerist.
Therefore, the pretentious Mizuki not only failed to obtain the civil servant status as a teacher of the ninja school, but also lost the opportunity to continue promotion, which made him extremely annoyed with great ambition. Although he suppressed this emotion on the surface, seeing the same Iruka being able to serve as a ninja teacher, this jealousy also became one of the catalysts in his heart.
In addition, he happened to have met one of the legendary three ninjas before, so after a long period of resentment, he finally made up his mind and planned to sentence Konoha to join the legendary ninja.
However, since he wants to rely on the other party, he naturally has to prepare a generous gift, and after thinking about it, Mizuki locked in one thing, that is the book of seals made by the first Hokage according to legend in Konoha Village. It is said that it records a large number of powerful Forbidden arts that cannot be taught well, it is definitely a unique treasure for any ninja who pursues power.
Anyway, as a ninja, Mizuki understands his identity and strength to some extent. Stealing the book of seals is not an easy task, and since he wants to run away, he naturally has to find a few idiots who can take the blame for him. .
Of course, there is such an existence that people hate dogs and dogs in Konoha Village, and in Mizuki’s view, this guy is very, very lacking in heart, and belongs to the kind of existence that people will take for granted even if they take the blame.
That’s right, the guy in the village who has a nine-tailed demon fox in his stomach, is rejected by all Konoha villagers, and who does some mischievous pranks all day long, the guy who writes Naruto Uzumaki and reads ‘the best candidate for the black pot’ .
Originally, Mizuki really wanted to wait, at least until the graduation exam in almost two months before taking action, but the problem was that Naruto suddenly seemed to have no interest in doing bad things. For example, this golden retriever who is always pranking his presence and drawing hatred has obviously no time to continue doing those things that attract attention by scribbling on the Hokage Rock in the past few months, which makes Mizuki a little uneasy, because if If Naruto is really good, it seems that the strength of letting the other party take the blame seems a bit poor.
Therefore, after thinking about it, Mizuki decided to take a risk and start early. Taking advantage of Naruto’s hatred in Konoha Village is still fresh, it is obviously better to pull the other party to help him steal the book of seals at this time.
As for how to convince the other party, Mizuki thinks it is not difficult. In his eyes, Naruto is basically not much different from a duck. As long as he tells him that he can gain powerful power by obtaining the Book of Seals, then this demon fox will definitely agree.
To sum up, this is why Mizuki appeared at the gate of Uchiha’s mansion today. He inquired privately and knew that Naruto seemed to be living here all this time, which seemed a bit troublesome, because as far as he knew, There’s another nasty kid in the Uchiha mansion.
“Who are you? What are you doing poking around here?!”
Sasuke’s indifferent voice suddenly came from the big tree above Mizuki’s head. Obviously, as a very vigilant young man, Sasuke was very keenly aware of the sneaky Mizuki outside, and then he appeared in unknowingly. the opponent’s side.
“Ah! You… you are Sasuke Uchiha, right?”
Suddenly shocked, Mizuki quickly calmed down, and then showed a gentle smile that he always pretended to be excellent: “Because you and Naruto have frequently skipped classes during this time, I want to see if you have encountered any trouble. .”
“Huh? You…I know you, you seem to be a friend of Iruka-sensei…”
Naruto’s voice also came from the bushes next to him. Obviously, if Mizuki had acted unfriendly just now, he would be greeted by the front and back of the two of Zuo Ming.
“Ah~ ahem, yes, Iruka and I are friends of the same class. Naruto, he often complains about your naughty.”
Stunned by Naruto’s sudden voice, Mizuki stabilized his mind, but he still didn’t give up.
“Che~ That guy Iruka~ Then, what’s the matter with Mizuki-sensei?”
Holding the back of his head, he curled his lips in dissatisfaction, but Naruto couldn’t help showing a smug smirk at the corner of his mouth. No matter what, being concerned by Iruka still gave him a very warm feeling.
“I heard that you guys even fainted some time ago because your cultivation was too harsh, right? It’s really commendable to work so hard at such a young age, but it’s not good to always skip classes, and you will graduate in two months. It’s time for the exam, you two don’t want to repeat the grade, right?”
After successfully finding the entry point of his words, Mizuki’s attitude became natural, and his caring tone really made Sasuke and Naruto lose the idea of leaving him alone.
“Hmph~ it’s nothing more than that kind of low-level three-body technique, I’ve learned it a long time ago.”
With a proud snort, Sasuke is obviously not worried about this, but Naruto on the side obviously changed his face, that’s right, although because he was **** so hard by Hinata, his fighting ability and resistance to beatings are not good for the original book. There are leaps in language, but these basic three-body techniques are still clumsy.
“Sasuke is a genius, so don’t worry, but what about you Naruto? Iruka is inconvenient to say, but I have no reason to cover it up for you. Your three-body technique is barely qualified except for the transformation technique and the avatar technique. Haven’t you mastered it yet?”
Seeing the change in Naruto’s face, Mizuki could not help but secretly clenched his fist proudly. As he thought, this idiot Crane Tail has not yet mastered the avatar technique.
“Ah… that, not necessarily, you have to take the test of avatar…”
As he said this, Naruto subconsciously trembled, because he felt the contempt of Sasuke around him. If both Sasuke and Hinata graduated, but he was relegated because he failed…then this The future is too tragic…
“I advise you to put away this fluke. The three-body technique is the most basic and most important ninjutsu for ninjas. If you can’t master it, you won’t be able to graduate.”
Holding up his arms, Shuimu’s expression became serious: “Also, I see your usual performance, I am afraid that you have a natural defect in the avatar technique, although you don’t want to say that, but you’d better be mentally prepared. .”
“Uh… Then, what should I do? Mr. Mizuki, I have never passed the avatar technique~”
Naruto, who was drenched in cold sweat, was clearly panicking, while Sasuke on the side frowned instinctively. As a person with at least twice as much heart as Naruto, he was very keenly aware of Mizuki’s malicious intent.
So, Sasuke simply shut his mouth, intending to see what cards this guy who ran over to seduce Naruto came up with.
“Naruto, this is the gap between your usual workouts. If you don’t work hard, it will be difficult to keep up at this time.”
Looking proudly at Naruto’s expression, Mizuki still observed Sasuke next to him, and after seeing that the other party didn’t say anything, he let out a sigh of relief, and then shook his head helplessly: “But forget it, let’s see how to practice before you. For the sake of hard work, I have a way that I might be able to help.”
“Ah? Really? What’s the way?”
Hearing that his clumsy avatar technique was saving, Naruto couldn’t help but get excited, and pretended to be helpless, Mizuki also said gently: “Don’t worry, I’ll tell you.”
“In our village, there is a book of seals handed down from the first Hokage. It is said that it records the experience of ninjutsu of Hokage-sama in all dynasties.”
“If you can watch it, maybe both you and Sasuke-kun will benefit a lot.”
——————
On the roof, Kakashi looked at this side carefully. After confirming Mizuki’s words, the white hair sighed, and finally left the mansion quietly. This kind of thing is not something he can decide.
Soon, the three generations of Hokage in the Hokage office knew about this, and the eyes of the always kind old man also brought a little sharpness.
“Although Ibizi and the others have already reported Mizuki’s inappropriate behavior, I didn’t expect him to actually have a different heart. It’s such a pity.”
Saying this lightly, Sandai raised his hand and his tone was very normal: “Remove the guards guarding the sealed book, and let Ibisi arrange for people to be at the fence tonight.”
Kakashi watched Sandai issue the order. Obviously, he knew exactly what the old man’s mind was. Since Mizuki has revealed his true colors, now this opportunity will become the final test for Sasuke and Naruto.
“Three generations, I personally think that Sasuke and Naruto are still young and can’t bear the temptation of this kind of power.
As a ninja who usually abides by the rules, it is obviously quite rare for Kakashi to say these words, and the third generation slowly exhaled a smoke ring, and then said lightly: “So, I will meet in person after a while. To unlock the seal of the book of seals, what you can learn depends on the talents of those children.”
The Book of Seals, as a scroll that contains a lot of forbidden techniques, usually has a strong seal. Only Hokage has the ability to unlock the above seal, and the purpose of the third generation is also very clear: he will unlock the Book of Seals tonight. Seal, if Naruto and Sasuke can really steal the book of seal, what they can learn will be compensation for tempting them.
