Chapter 257 Make Konoha great again!
In a blink of an eye.
Three days later, Naruto and the others returned to the tower in the Death Forest. At this time, all the people who had passed through had gathered here.
Of the 26 groups that participated, only seven are left now.
Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Hokage, also appeared in everyone's sight and spoke slowly.
“Next we will have the preliminary rounds before the third exam, because the third round will be watched by many wealthy people who have issued tasks.
Therefore, if the gap is too big, it will cause extremely serious consequences, which means that only half of the people here can actually take part in the third exam! "
The people below didn't say much.
The qualifiers were held as scheduled, but ended with almost no trouble, with the original three-person group.
Sakura was finally eliminated.
There is still one month left before the actual third exam.
Hokage Building, in the office.
Sarutobi Hiruzen was sitting in a chair, handling official business.
And it was at this time.
The office door was pushed open, and Danzo walked in and directly stated his purpose.
"Huruzen, hand Naruto over to me at the Root. With his talent I can train him into a perfect weapon!"
But what he got was Sarutobi Hiruzen's verbal rejection, "Give up, Danzo, this is impossible, Naruto must bask in the sunshine! The dark roots are not the place for him to go!"
These words were almost telling Danzo explicitly.
Naruto's future is Hokage!
Danzo noticed this and his face suddenly became extremely gloomy. "The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is in danger of losing control. Only my Root can better control him..."
This successfully touched Sarutobi Hiruzen's reverse scale, and he immediately slammed the table and shouted angrily, "Danzo, I am the Hokage!"
This scene seems familiar.
Having been turned away, Danzo became even more annoyed and spoke in the same cold voice.
"You'll regret this, Hiruzen!"
After saying that, he turned around and slammed the door and left.
The two of them parted on bad terms.
Sarutobi Hiruzen also sat back down again. He was no longer the compromising and weak Hokage in the original work!
Just because of Naruto's existence, he gained new hope.
He firmly believed.
Naruto will lead Konoha to greatness again!
Just as he was immersed in the beauty of the future, the office door was pushed open again.
A burly figure with long white hair walked in. "Old man, what are you looking for me for? I still need inspiration..."
Before he could finish, Sarutobi Hiruzen interrupted him and said, "Going to the women's bathhouse to find inspiration? Do you know how many people have complained about you?! But that's not why I asked you to come here..."
Changing the subject, he continued solemnly, "Jiraiya, I have an extremely important favor to ask of you!"
Seeing this serious look, Jiraiya also became serious for a rare time, and asked curiously, "Then tell me, what's the matter."
Sarutobi Hiruzen did not waste any time and immediately asked, "I hope you can accept Uzumaki Naruto as your disciple!"
"Minato's child?"
Jiraiya also had some memories of Naruto, but he didn't know the specific details, after all, he was not in the village in those years.
However, he also had special expectations for Minato's child, "In that case, I will accept him as my apprentice. If there is nothing else, I will leave first."
After receiving a positive answer, Sarutobi Hiruzen's wrinkled face smiled for the first time, "That child will definitely give you a surprise."
"I hope so."
Jiraiya said this and left.
……
at the same time.
Inside the training grounds, Naruto was training cross-legged under a tree while his shadow clone was training with Sasuke.
On a tree not far away, Jiraiya was looking at the battle in the training ground, and saw the two men fighting fiercely.
Even Jiraiya couldn't help but nod slightly.
With such talent at this age, he can be called a genius!
After looking for a while, Jiraiya instantly came in front of Naruto's real body, and Naruto opened his eyes.
There was a flash of doubt in his eyes.
"Excuse me, are you okay?"
Hearing this, Jiraiya raised his lips and praised, "Very polite, I am your future master, one of the legendary Sannin, the Sage Jiraiya!"
The situation here also attracted Sasuke's attention, and he couldn't help but stop the competition.
Hearing the other party's name, Naruto fell into a brief contemplation. After all, among the new generation of ninjas in Konoha Village, basically no one knew the three ninjas.
Seeing Naruto's expression, Jiraiya curled his lips and said something else, "You just need to know that the Third Hokage personally appointed me to be your master."
"I see."
Naruto nodded slightly after hearing this.
He didn't have too many doubts. After all, Ajuramaru didn't warn him, which proved that there was no problem.
The Aguramaru in his body thought more and personally decided that Jiraiya would accept Naruto as his disciple. It seemed that he was really training Naruto to be the future Hokage.
But if you think about it carefully, this is normal.
After all, with the talent Naruto has shown now, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the second Hashirama Senju.
As for the outside world, Naruto looked at the cheap master in front of him, and after a brief confusion, he stood up and introduced himself with a smile.
"I am Uzumaki Naruto, so please give me your guidance in the future!"
At this moment, Jiraiya seemed to see Minato's figure, and could only sigh in his heart, they are indeed father and son!
But he quickly came back to his senses, and said with a slight smile, "Then I will guide you in your practice. If there is no problem, follow me."
"Please wait a moment, Master."
Naruto responded and quickly turned to look at Sasuke and apologized to him.
"I'm sorry Sasuke, I'll be leaving now, but I won't remove the Shadow Clone. If you want to continue training, you can let him accompany you."
Sasuke had no objection to Naruto's departure, but looking at the unreliable Jiraiya, it was hard for him not to doubt him.
I couldn't help but said coldly.
"Are you sure what this guy said is true? Is he a liar?"
But Naruto thought about it and replied.
"Probably not."
Jiraiya didn't care about the conversation between the two. Instead, he couldn't help but look at the last survivor of the Uchiha a few more times.
Until Jiraiya and the other left together.
Walking on the street, Naruto asked with some confusion, "Master, where are we going to practice next?"
"You'll know when the time comes."
Jiraiya walked in front and replied lightly, and then the two of them came to the door of the women's bathhouse opened in the village.
