The Legendary Taoist of Konoha

Chapter 31

Ever since Jiraiya exchanged for Zhen Jizo, in order to satisfy the regrets of his previous life, Gen Hoshino would design a hairstyle for himself every once in a while.

As we all know, the importance of hairstyle to a person's appearance, some people just change their hairstyle as if they have changed their person.

This is also why there is no portrait of Hoshino Gen in the big countries and black markets. There is really no way to verify the real face of a person who changes his hairstyle in a few days.

Originally, Hoshino Gen had always had ordinary short hair, but now he has made his hair longer with needle Jizo, and some strands of his hair are still standing up, and the other half of his hair hangs in front of his right eye.

This was designed by Gen Hoshino according to the memory of his previous life. Gen Hoshino is very satisfied with this hairstyle.

"Ah!" Uchiha Mikoto opened her eyes wide, as if she was incredulous about Gen Hoshino's change.

"Gen-kun, I heard that you have been promoted to Chunin, congratulations!" Uchiha Mikoto reacted, and quickly congratulated Hoshino Gen.

It was a few months ago that Hoshino Gen was promoted to Chunin, but Uchiha Mikoto stayed in the village all the time, and had never seen Hoshino Gen at all. This time, he was happy for Hoshino Gen.

"It's all happened a long time ago, and with Mikoto's strength, I'm afraid you won't be promoted to Chunin in a long time!" Hoshino Gen should sense the strength of Uchiha Mikoto's body because of his strong mental power. The amount of Chakra drinking is not much different from myself, and it has reached the level of Zhongnin.

"That's right. With your strength, Mikoto, you are enough to be a Chunin." Uchiha Fugaku walked over. Originally, Fugaku was not far away. He heard Mikoto's surprised cry, so he came to check the situation.

"Is this Hoshino-kun? I heard that Hoshino-kun and Mikoto are classmates. If you have time, you might as well come to our Uchiha's house." Uchiha Fugaku invited Hoshino Gen.

Uchiha Fugaku is still quite curious about Hoshino Gen, a recently rising genius ninja, so if there is a chance, Fugaku doesn't mind wooing Hoshino Gen.

"Who is this?" Hoshino asked suspiciously.

"Oh, Gen-kun, this is our young patriarch, Uchiha Fugaku, who is also my captain in the guard!" Uchiha Mikoto introduced to Hoshino Gen.

Gen Hoshino's eyes flashed, and he said: "It turns out to be Uchiha's young patriarch, who has admired his name for a long time!"

Uchiha Fugaku, as the young patriarch of Uchiha's family, was also a famous genius of their class when he was in school.

Uchiha Fugaku is only a few years older than Hoshino Gen, but at this time he is already a special Jōnin, and Hoshino Gen doesn't dare to underestimate him.

"Hoshino-kun is polite, the name of Hoshino-kun's genius has spread throughout Konoha." Uchiha Fugaku smiled slightly, and continued: "It's rare for Hoshino-kun to come back from the front line, why don't you take this opportunity to be a guest at Uchiha's house? Let me take over Hoshino-kun and wash away the dust."

Uchiha Fugaku once again invited Hoshino Gen to be a guest at Uchiha's home.

Gen Hoshino looked at Mikoto, who was eager to try, and then took a deep look at Uchiha Fugaku, then shook his head and refused: "I'm really sorry, Hokage-sama is still waiting for me to report the mission, I appreciate the kindness of the young patriarch ,Feel sorry!"

For the Uchiha family, if it wasn't for Mikoto's reasons, Hoshino Gen would probably not have contacted anyway. After all, in Hoshino Gen's cognition, the Uchiha family members are basically paranoid.

Although Gen Hoshino is more envious of the power of Sharingan, but Gen Hoshino's own inheritance is not weak, there is no need to plan other powers.

Gen Hoshino is envious of things like blood, but he will not peek at them. After all, this kind of power is too risky, and Gen Hoshino has always believed that this kind of power has certain limitations.

Although it will increase one's combat power in the short term, it may limit one's development in the future.

Gen Hoshino's knowledge of power far exceeds that of anyone in the ninja world, and with the inheritance, Gen Hoshino will not give up his later development for the sake of the power in front of him.

As long as he has learned the mental power warfare method to the perfect level, then Gen Hoshino can start to practice the power of a real Taoist priest.

Since there is no need, there is no need to approach or please, or even hostile, just ignore it, this is the current way of Hoshino Gen.

Hearing Gen Hoshino's refusal, Uchiha Mikoto was still a little disappointed, but Hoshino Gen's reasons were aboveboard, and Uchiha Mikoto had no reason to force Hoshino Gen to stay, anyway, with the relationship between the two, it would be good to find time to get together later up.

"So that's the case! Then don't bother Hoshino-kun, and we still have patrol missions, and we will have a chance to meet again after that!" Uchiha Fugaku nodded and said.

Uchiha Fugaku is not very angry about Gen Hoshino's rejection. After all, Gen Hoshino has a strong reason, and Fugaku is not a narrow-minded person. He will not retaliate against Gen. Hoshino just because of Gen Hoshino's rejection.

For the ninja family, Gen Hoshino has never had much contact with it. Everyone in the major families knows this from when Gen Hoshino was in school.

"Then, see you next time!" Uchiha Fugaku said hello to Hoshino Gen and Yuhi Mako, and then retreated.

Seeing Fuyue's departure, Uchiha Mikoto said to Hoshino Gen: "When you rest, let's find a chance to get together. Let's do this first. I'm going to patrol."

Saying that, Uchiha Mikoto ran towards the guards of Uchiha's house.

After Uchiha Mikoto left, Gen Hoshino used the needle Jizo to restore his previous hairstyle, then nodded to Yuhi Makoto, and then walked towards the Hokage Building.

The corners of Yuhi's red eyes twitched again, some didn't understand Hoshino Gen's habit, but he didn't say anything, and walked towards Hokage Building with Hoshino Gen.

Arriving at the Hokage Building, Yuhi Makoto and Hoshino Gen were led by a guard ninja to Sandai's office.

"Okay, you step back!" The third Hokage Sarutobi cut back the guarding ninja, and then asked Hoshino Gen: "Chunin Hoshino Gen, we have already read the report of this mission, but after all Such a big thing happened, so you still need to come back and explain it clearly to us face to face."

At this time, Sandai was sitting in front of Hokage's desk, with two ninjas standing aside, Mitomon Yan and Zhuanju Koharu.

Two members of the Konoha elders gathered in the Hokage office for this incident.

"Yes! Three generations of adults!"

Then Gen Hoshino began to talk about what happened to them this time. Among them, Gen Hoshino concealed his summoned skeleton, and only said that he killed the other party with the poison he researched.

Regarding the matter of Kakuto, Gen Hoshino concealed his own information, telling the third generation that the information he obtained was all revealed from Kakuto and added some guesses.

After Gen Hoshino finished speaking, Yuhi Zhenhong began to supplement the situation of their mission.

After the two finished talking, Sandai took a puff of cigarette and said, "Kakuto from Takinobu Village, I didn't expect him to appear again."

Regarding the matter of Kakutsu, the third Hokage had already checked the information inside Konoha. Although Kakutsu’s secret technique was not found, most of the countries in the ninja world received news when Kakutsu defected. They are already S-level traitors, and their strength is evident.

However, for more than ten years, the major countries and Konoha have not found any information about Kakutsu, and they thought Kakutsu had died or had some accident.

"Since it is a ninja with such strength, there is no way for Kageichi to die in battle." Third Hokage sighed and said.

"Wait a minute, after listening to Gen Hoshino's report, I want Gen Hoshino to explain some of the problems!"

At this moment, Xiaochun, who was sleeping at the side, suddenly spoke.
