The Invisible Assassin of Konoha

Chapter 19 Mother's Love Like Water
"Mom, why did you agree so readily?"

On the way home, Rikimaru followed behind his mother and asked her in a low voice.

Yuzu stopped, looked down at her son, and asked, "If I don't agree, will you stop doing it?"

"No, I will definitely participate in the graduation assessment." Riki replied.

Yuzu said: "That's it. Since it's useless for me to object, why should I object?"

Riki asked anxiously in his heart: "Mom, you're not doing some tricks, are you?"

"Trick your head."

A chestnut hit Riki's head, Yuzu straightened his face, squatted down and looked at Riki, gently stroked Riki's forehead with his right hand, pressed his own forehead against Riki's, and murmured.

"Riki, mom has no skills and can't help you, but mom will never hold you back. No matter what you do, mom will support you. Mom has only one wish, that is, no matter what you do, you must guarantee yourself Although my mother doesn’t know what a ninja is, she knows that ninjas are very dangerous.”

"Your dead ghost father is a heartless guy, he has no ability and lost his life, but I don't want you to be like him. You are smarter and more capable than him. I know what you said about the graduation examination. You will definitely be able to pass it." .”

"But what I want to tell you is that sometimes being smart is not necessarily a good thing. You have to think about everything when you do everything. There is only one life, and my mother hopes that you will take care of me until the end of my life."

"Mom!"

Riki tried his best not to shed tears, even though he was a human being in two lifetimes, his mother's whispers so sincerely moved him so much that he wanted to cry.

In the past, his mother, who always played tricks on him, would support him so much after he made a decision, no matter how much Liu Shengcun tried to persuade him, it would not change. This kind of maternal love made him feel very heavy, but also touched and happy.

"Mom, don't worry, I will definitely ensure my safety. I'm not stupid. If you encounter danger, don't care about his mission, just run away. No one says it's useless."

"Stinky boy."

Wiping away her tears, Yuzu scolded with a smile, "It's not that easy to be a ninja, you have to listen to your seniors, but you're right, life-saving is the most important thing, mother only has you as a son, but you can't control so much, as long as you live, the rest whatever."

For her, she doesn't know about ninjas. All she cares about is her own son. She doesn't care about ninja rules and regulations.

"Mom, your son is a genius, even if he becomes a ninja, he is the best." Rikimaru said with a smile on purpose.

Yuzu scolded unceremoniously: "What kind of genius, I think geniuses will die sooner, I just hope you can be an unknown little ninja, but you are right, my son is so powerful, even that None of Konoha Baiya's sons is my son's match."

"Rikimaru, you can win over my old lady and become a powerful ninja like Sannin-sama. If that happens, no one will dare to go to our restaurant to make trouble."

"Mom, your goal is really clear enough."

Riki is a little speechless, sometimes he really can't understand his mother's thoughts, when he is smart, he plays around with him, and when he is stupid, he is also silly and cute, sometimes the goal is narrow, and sometimes the goal is big, completely incomprehensible clear.

"What do you need for the graduation assessment? Mom will prepare it for you." Yuzu said to Rikimaru.

Riki waved his hand and said, "There is no need to prepare anything, mom, don't worry, you can do whatever you need to do, the graduation examination is not a big problem for me."

His current strength is about the same as Kakashi's. Since Kakashi can pass the test, he believes that he is fine.

Hokage Building, the Third Hokage looked at Yagyu Murichi in doubt.

"You said, besides Hatake Kakashi, there is also a student named Fujiwara Rikimaru who also wants to apply for the graduation assessment?"

Regarding Konoha Baiga, Sandai Hokage has always felt guilty. This time he did not fight against Danzo, which made Hatake Sakumo, who was supposed to be a hero, die with infamy, so he has always paid attention to Kakashi. casey.

He already knew about Kakashi's application for the graduation assessment, and had already arranged it, but what he didn't expect was that Yagyu Murichi found him again today, and said something that surprised him.

In addition to Hatake Kakashi, there is actually one person in Liu Yucunyi's class who wants to apply for the graduation assessment at the same time.

As for the student Fujiwara Rikimaru, Sandai Hokage naturally knew about it. At the beginning, he saw the first duel between Rikimaru and Kakashi by accident. Later, he heard about Yagyu Cunichi and his youngest son Asmado. The first time I mentioned Fujiwara Rikimaru, I naturally paid attention to this Fujiwara Rikimaru.

Judging from his many years of experience, he felt that Fujiwara Rikimaru was a very talented talent, just as Yagyumuraichi thought.

Not born in a big family, but able to be very mature, and even defeated the genius Kakashi. When he saw Fujiwara Rikimaru, he couldn't help but think of his disciple, Orochimaru, one of the Konoha Sannin. He felt that the two of them were very similar .

Liu Shengcun said anxiously: "Yes, Hokage-sama, this little guy has a very bad temper, no matter how much I try to persuade him, I even invited his mother, but who would have thought that his mother would go along with that brat , Agreeing that brat to participate in the graduation assessment."

"Ha ha."

The Third Hokage smiled kindly, although he was also surprised that a commoner woman still has such insight.

"Since both he and his mother are willing, why are you still complaining here?"

Yagyu Village said, "Master Hokage, of course I am in a hurry. That brat Rikimaru is a genius not weaker than Kakashi. I don't want him to graduate early for his own good. He is different from Kakashi. Kakashi is a Born in a big family, the family has the information and experience he needs. Ke Limaru is just an ordinary civilian. If he does not have enough education, it will be difficult to become a talent. I don't want such a genius to go to waste, so I implore Hokage-sama not to agree to his graduation request. "

"I?"

The Third Hokage shook his head with a smile, and said: "Although I am Hokage, I am not qualified to prevent the students of the Ninja School from applying for the graduation examination. Your consideration is reasonable, but that kid has confidence in himself. You, the teacher, should encourage him. Not to stop him, the only thing that can stop him now is the assessment."

Liu Shengcun was stunned, he came to Sandai, hoping that Sandai could help him, but he didn't expect that Sandai was not on the same front with him, he shouted eagerly: "Master Hokage, I think..."

"Okay, Cunyi, you don't need to say more."

The Third Hokage waved his hand and said, "Since they have all applied, then agree to their assessment and let Hatake Kakashi and Fujiwara Rikimaru take part in the assessment together, and I will be there in person when the time comes."
