Chapter 4: The Crisis Is Still There, So We Need To Be Cautious Every Step Of The Way
"Uzumaki, Senju only?" Third Generation seemed to realize something, and felt shocked.
It can not be!
Mizuki smiled bitterly and said: "I didn't believe this at first. I ate one pill at that time, but there was no reaction at all. I brought it back to the village and kept it in an inconspicuous corner."
"Seeing that Naruto failed the exam today, I suddenly thought that Naruto's surname is Uzumaki and he has the blood of the Uzumaki clan in his body. Maybe this medicine will be useful, so I tried it."
"I didn't expect that after Naruto took the pill, his Chakra control ability actually improved."
"I gave him 2 pills, and I couldn't help but take one myself. It turned out that the pills only worked on Naruto, and had no effect on me at all."
Speaking of this, Mizuki became more and more frustrated.
The expression is spot on.
The Third Generation thinks more.
Back then, Senju had good relations with the Uzumaki Generation, and First Hokage could release ninjutsu without sealing. Could it be that he got the Chakra Control Pill from the Uzumaki clan?
But why is there no record of such a thing in the village?
"Third Generation-sama, there is one last Chakra control pill left in the wooden box. After much thought, it is best to give it to Hokage-sama."
"Although it is useless for bloodline ninjas other than Senju and Uzumaki, with some research and improvement, this limitation may be eliminated."
What is in the box is of course a fake Chakra control pill provided by the system, which can increase the Chakra control of Uzumaki and Senju clan ninjas by 0.1%.
The system has already paved the way back, and there is no need for Mizuki to think too much.
Third Generation opened the box and looked at the elixir lying quietly inside, feeling somewhat hopeful in its heart.
"Mizuki, you have your heart!"
"As for Naruto, you did a good job. Naruto's identity is quite special, and the villagers are not willing to contact him."
"But you are willing to help him, which is really rare and really impresses me."
Mizuki sneered inwardly.
Fake old coin!
He clearly set a trap to deal with me, but he said something different and said something different.
Also, Naruto is hated by the villagers, and it's not because of you.
If you announced his identity as the son of a hero, would the villagers' attitude towards him still be the same as it is now?
"Third Generation-sama is too generous. As a member of Konoha, these are what I should do."
"I don't have much talent. I'm just an ordinary Chūnin. I can't bring more benefits to the village by performing high-level tasks. I can only focus on cultivating the next generation of Konoha in school."
"Although my teaching ability is insufficient and I am just a teaching assistant, I will try my best no matter what."
"I just hope those children are stronger and can protect themselves, their companions, and the village."
"Don't be like me, who is not strong enough and watches his companions being killed but can do nothing."
What Mizuki said was sincere.
Third Generation is an old politician and an old coin. He has never experienced any scene. Of course he will not believe these words.
Although there is no definite evidence that Mizuki covered his companion to death, it does not prevent Third Generation from believing that Mizuki is not a good person.
"He obviously sensed that the village was preparing to attack him."
"He also handed over the last blue pill and pretended to care about the village in front of me."
"This kind of person will be a disaster if he stays in the village. But if he is arrested, there is no evidence!"
"Arrest without evidence, the villagers and the ninjas in the village will have ideas."
Third Generation began to hesitate.
In the end, he decided to let it go!
He's just a Chūnin and can't make any big waves.
Keep it, maybe you can catch Orochimaru.
"Mizuki, I didn't expect that you already have a thorough understanding of the will of fire."
"It seems that letting you serve as a teaching assistant in the Ninja School is overkill. In this way, when the new students enter, you can also become a teacher. Your salary in all aspects will be improved."
"I hope you will pass on the will of fire. Only in this way can Konoha survive."
Mizuki was relieved that Third Generation had finally spoken out.
At least, the crisis is temporarily over.
Be careful in the future and never let Third Generation take advantage.
"Third Generation-sama, I will do it!"
"Yes!" Third Generation nodded and added, "You have contributed a lot to the Chakra Control Pill. I have decided to give you a reward."
Third Generation opened the drawer and took out a wad of money.
"This is one hundred thousand taels, take it."
"This is my personal reward for you, so don't tell anyone about it. It's not good for others to know."
Mizuki was sarcastic and stingy, so he paid one hundred thousand taels for the hush fee.
It's not as much as the reward for a B-level mission.
Although I am not satisfied, I still need to improve the appearance.
Mizuki pretended to be overjoyed and reached out to take the money.
"Thank you, Hokage-sama!"
Looking at Mizuki's leaving figure, Third Generation said: "This Mizuki has a very deep scheming mind, which is completely different from what Anbu analyzed."
"I don't want to waste my energy on an inconspicuous Chūnin."
"I hope he's calmer recently."
After leaving the Hokage Building, Mizuki went straight home.
Although he now wants to experience the upgrade of Three Body Technique and the specific effects after the upgrade, tonight is not a good time.
He could clearly feel that the way Third Generation looked at him was very unfriendly.
If he happened to be spied on by the Third Generation while practicing ninjutsu, there would be no way to explain it.
Transformation Technique can transform other people or things, how do you explain this!
The crisis is not over yet, so we need to proceed with caution.
"The Third Generation won't live long anyway. Once he dies and Tsunade takes over, we won't have to worry so much."
When Tsunade becomes Fifth Hokage, if he behaves more proactively, he still has a chance to clear his name.
After returning home, I pretend to refine the Chakra, then take off my clothes and lie on the bed, getting ready for bed.
Just then, there was a knock on the door, a little urgent and a little angry.
"Who is it?" Mizuki stood up and opened the door.
Outside the door, stood a beautiful woman with a pure appearance wearing a burgundy suspender skirt.
"Chun, you...why are you here so late?"
The woman is none other than Mizuki's childhood sweetheart and fiancée, Tsubaki.
It's a bit embarrassing.
This is the original Mizuki's fiancée, and he has no feelings for her at all.
Although she is beautiful, she is just a stranger to him, let alone like her.
But the trouble is, the two have already made an engagement.
If the relationship is between boyfriend and girlfriend, you can easily find a reason to break up.
But the marriage contract has been made, which is equivalent to getting the certificate but not holding the wedding.
It’s hard to break up.
If the engagement is broken off, the reputation of being a troublemaker but a deserter will immediately fall on him. Under the thumb of thousands of people, he will have no way to live, and he will either die or defect.
Thinking about Hatake Sakumo, he was scolded and committed suicide.
The Internet exposure is fiercer than a tiger!
If the engagement is not broken off, they will get married in one month. When we get along day and night, wouldn't my identity as a time traveler be easily exposed?
This is his biggest secret. Even if he defectes, this matter cannot be exposed.
"What should we do?" He felt that life was so difficult.
Chun looked at Mizuki and said angrily: "We agreed to have barbecue together tonight. I waited for you at the barbecue restaurant for so long, and you actually slept at home?"
Mizuki: "Ah! Well, well, as you know, I was too busy taking the school graduation exam today, so I forgot about it."
what to do?
How can we cancel this engagement without defecting?
"I don't care! You broke the promise and I'm still hungry now. You must compensate." Chun went straight into the house.
"As a punishment, you will cook dinner for me once, my favorite barbecued pork rice."
Mizuki: "I...I can't!"
What should I do? She entered the house. It was late at night, and she actually entered the house.
Good luck!
Chun: "No, it doesn't matter. I will guide you from the side. Anyway, it must be done by your own hands."
…
In the Hokage office, Third Generation withdrew its gaze and disarmed the telescope Technique.
He tapped his fingers on the table a few times, and an Anbu appeared in front of the desk.
"Effective today, the defense level against Chūnin Mizuki will be raised from D level to C level."
"Intensify monitoring of him and report immediately if there is any situation."
"Also, find an opportunity to send multiple Shadow Clone Techniques to Naruto's house."
After the Third Generation finished explaining, he took the wooden box and returned to the Sarutobi clan's residence, entered the secret room, and studied it himself.
This night, Konoha was quiet.
At Iruka's house, Iruka was lying on the bed waiting for a signal, waiting left and right, and finally an Anbu came.
"Master Hokage asked me to send word that tonight's plans have been cancelled."
"After tonight, act like nothing happened. Don't show any abnormality in front of Mizuki."
Hearing the news, Iruka breathed a sigh of relief.
In his heart, he never wanted to see Mizuki and Konoha standing on opposite sides.
Nothing happened tonight, which couldn't be better.
After all, sending his friend to prison with his own hands was also a kind of torture for him.
"In that case, can I find a way to erase the darkness in his heart and make him give up defecting?"
"Although adults' ideas have been solidified and it is difficult to change. But, maybe it can really succeed!"
