Naruto Alchemist

Chapter 77 The Beginning of Revival
In the early morning, the backyard of Sato’s house.

Waking up in the morning, after some simple grooming, Sangsuke changed into a new kimono that was tailored a few days ago, and sat cross-legged on the corridor in the backyard, closing his eyes and meditating.

While he was resting with his eyes closed, several figures appeared one after another in the backyard of Sato's house. After they appeared, they all half-kneeled in front of Sangsuke, bowed their heads, and looked respectful.

About half an hour later, Sangzhu just opened his eyes, glanced at the people half kneeling in the backyard, and silently counted the number of people.

No more, no less, exactly seven people.

"As expected of the elite ninjas who retired from Anbu." Sangsuke glanced at the several people present, his tone a little cold, "Very good, very punctual, the time I agreed with you is [-]:[-], and you are here All arrived before [-]:[-], very good, I am very satisfied."

The seven people half-kneeling in front of Sangsuke are the ninjas that Danzo promised him to retreat from the "roots". Originally, Danzo promised only the three people who would retreat from the "roots". Why, Hiruza Sarutobi finally selected four ninjas from Anbu and asked them to join the Sato family.

Therefore, the number of people who came to Sato's house to report in the end changed from three to seven.

"You seven, from left to right, introduce yourself and let me get to know you." After thinking about it for a while, Sangzhu still felt that he needed to introduce himself to get to know the seven new subordinates who belonged to him.

"Anbu's code name is 'Shang', a former ninja from Anbu's enchantment class, who is good at sealing and enchantment." The first one on the far left to introduce himself is the female ninja 'Shang' who visited Anbu with mourners, She took off her mask and grinned at Sangzhu.

"Anbu code-named 'Meng', a former ninja from Anbu's reconnaissance class, good at stealth and infiltration." The second person who introduced himself was 'Meng', a teenager who had dealt with Sangsuke earlier and was about the same age as Sangsuke.

"Anbu's codename is 'Yan'."

Immediately afterwards, the ninjas of the original Anbu introduced their original names and the ninjutsu they were good at to Sangsuke one by one. After listening to their self-introductions, Sangsuke also had a preliminary understanding of these seven people. .

"Although you all know it, I still want to introduce myself to you." Sangzhu stood up, straightened his back, and his still immature face also carried the majesty of a superior.

"I am the current Patriarch of the Sato family, Sato Sansuke, good at forging, although I am not a ninja, but I also know some medical methods." Satou looked at the seven people in front of him with his hands behind his back. Finally a faint smile appeared, "Welcome to the Sato family."

"From today onwards, the seven of you are members of the Sato family." Sangsuke said eloquently, "I know that you will definitely be dissatisfied with the allocation of you by Hokage-sama and Danzo-sama, but I believe that , you will all slowly change, and finally integrate into the Sato family."

"You should all know what kind of status the former Sato family had in Konoha and even the Kingdom of Fire."

"However, no matter how brilliant and famous the Sato family used to be, that's just the past." Sangsuke tilted his head, looked at the long-abandoned meeting hall of the Sato family, and said indifferently: "The current Sato family is just empty. It’s just a small family with the name of a big family, but no power of a big family.”

"We are the new generation of the Sato family."

"Our goal is not to restore the Sato family to its former glory, but to surpass it."

"Beyond the former Sato family, the Sato family's pace is not limited to Konoha and even the country of fire. The goal of the Sato family is to become famous in the entire ninja world."

Sangzhu looked at his subordinates with different expressions and smiled, "Perhaps you will think that I am just chanting slogans in vain to fill your hunger, but time will tell you the answer."

"Then, next, let's introduce myself again." Sangsuke looked at his subordinates with a smile, "Tell me your real name, hobbies, and dreams, whatever."

"Master Sato, we have no names." A young man raised his hand and said calmly.

"No name?" Sangzhu was a little surprised.

"The three of them are different from the four of us." 'Shang' explained: "The three of them are ninjas belonging to 'root', and most of them are orphans raised by Anbu, so they don't have their own name, only the 'code name' of Anbu."

"Is this the so-called 'root' person? No name, no feelings, no past...and no future."

Sangzhu was shocked when he learned this, but the four retired from 'root' in front of him looked calm, as if they didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

"Since you joined the Sato family, the four of you should all be named Sato." Sangsuke sighed, "The four of you should think about the specific names, and just tell me after you think it over."

"Don't think about it, the name is just a code name." The young man who was the leader of the four said, "From today onwards, my name is Satoichi."

"Satoji."

"Sato San."

"Satou four."

Sato Sansuke: .
**********************************************
After talking with the seven new subordinates who joined the Sato family one by one, and assigning tasks to them, Sangsuke brought a young woman named 'Shang' before and now named Li to the alchemy workshop.

"You can take this book and read it." Sangzhu walked to the bookcase, took out a copy of "Introduction to Alchemy" and handed it to Li.

Li took the "Introduction to Alchemy", rolled his eyes a few times, and his face became a little ugly, "Sir, the things in this book are so hard to understand."

Sangzhu smiled and said: "Everything is difficult at the beginning, and it will be fine if you pass this hurdle."

"Can't you teach me like an apprentice?" Li complained.

"No."

After hearing Li's words, Sangzhu didn't even think about it, and directly refused. While refusing, he tapped his hand in the air and said, "If you encounter any problems in the process of learning alchemy, you can come and ask." I, I will give you an answer, but there is no master-student relationship between you and me."

"Oh." Li looked a bit disappointed, but Sangzhu didn't care about Li's disappointment. At this moment, his attention was on the prompt box of the system.

[Currently there are two alchemy apprentices: Keita and Taniguchi Kengo. 】

Seeing that Li's name did not appear in the list of alchemy apprentices, Sangzhu felt a little relieved.

"It seems that as long as alchemy is not taught directly, no name will appear in the apprentice list."

"Next, it's time to consider new apprentices." Thinking of this, several candidates quickly appeared in Sangzhu's mind.

The candidates with the highest priority are naturally Suizi and Kushina who are good friends with him.

There should be no problem with Suozi, after all, Sasaki Genichi's leg was healed by alchemy.

Just Kushina.
Thinking back to that night, Kushina who ran away crying, for some reason, Sangsuke felt a dull pain in his heart.

"Could it be that I'm sick?"
