Escape From Konoha

Vol 2 Chapter 5: 4 sides (2)

beep-

beep-

The alarm clock rang in the dimly lit room, and through the gaps in the curtains, only dim light could be seen, and it should be some time before full dawn.

But at the moment the alarm rang, the man opened his eyes from the bed, woke up, and the drowsiness disappeared completely the moment he opened his eyes.

Habitually stretched out his hand and pressed the switch of the alarm clock, the room returned to silence.

The man started from the bed board, lifted the quilt, got out of bed, turned on the light in the bedroom, and started dressing.

After waiting for the clothes to be dressed, the man walked to the mirror in the wardrobe and carefully looked at his image at the moment.

With shoulder-length water-blue hair, his face is handsome, and his eyes are indifferent and sharp, but then under the subconscious adjustment, the sharp color in his eyes disappeared, and it turned into a soft and friendly meaning.

But this posture didn't last long, the man seemed to sense something, took out the kunai from the ninja bag, turned back and pointed the kunai in his hand to the corner of the room.

There was a young man who was a few years younger than his own age.

Wearing a pair of round-frame glasses, the young man had a quiet and friendly temperament, with a small smile on his face, and stood there staring at him motionless.

"It's you, Tou. What's the matter with coming here so early?"

After the man recognized the identity of the person, although he put down his palm, he did not put away the kunai in his hand, obviously maintaining a certain degree of vigilance against this young man with glasses.

"Don't be so indifferent, I just came here to express my condolences to you according to the order of Lord Orochimaru. Today's arrangement, you are fine by yourself, Mizuki?"

Call out the man's name.

Konoha Chunin, currently working at Konoha Ninja School, is an elite teacher.

Seemingly feeling the distrust in his tone, Mizuki frowned quickly and said, "If you don't believe me, you can take over my task at any time. I don't feel safe working with someone like you."

"Don't get me wrong, we are all doing things for Lord Orochimaru, and many times we can't help ourselves. Moreover, Lord Orochimaru attaches great importance to this matter. You are the most suitable candidate."

Said with a smile.

"Then don't talk nonsense here, I'm being stared at by the people of Anbu. If you don't want to reveal your identity, don't keep too close to me."

"Knowing that you are being stared at by Anbu, you still dare to act so daringly, as Lord Orochimaru said, you are a guy who likes to seek riches through risk. However, I also remind you, don't think about betraying Lord Orochimaru, otherwise you will understand your What's going to happen."

"Oh, then I'd like to hear it."

Mizuki looked at the pocket with a sneer.

"For example, I remember you had a fiancée in the village..."

laugh!

Kunai pierced through the air, and placed it on Douche's neck.

Mizuki appeared in front of Dou, with a few strands of hair falling down.

For the kunai on his neck, Kazui looked at Mizuki indifferently.

"Sorry, I'm not malicious, I just don't want you to do some superfluous things and end up implicated in the people you value."

Looking at the cold killing intent hidden in Shuimu's eyes, Dou said these words in a flat tone.

"That kind of thing doesn't seem like something someone like you should say."

Mizuki said coldly.

"Even spies like us, who rely on deception to survive, still have things in their hearts that they cannot be allowed to blaspheme. I can understand your situation very well, because I have lost it, so to me now, Orochimaru-sama is everything."

"I only need power, and I need power to make idiots like Konoha regret it. I'm not interested in your past. I and Orochimaru are just a cooperative relationship. Don't try to order me with the attitude of superiors and subordinates."

Mizuki seemed to see through the potential intention of the pocket, and sneered inwardly.

"That's a pity."

Pushing the glasses on the bridge of his nose, the smile in his eyes disappeared, turning into an indifferent color, and he looked at Mizuki.

The solicitation failed. He secretly thought.

However, this is to be expected.

It's just a pity for such a good piece.

After all, if Mizuki can complete this task, his position in Orochimaru's mind will inevitably be elevated and move closer to his trusted members.

This is also the reason why he came to win over each other.

Whether it is coercion or playing emotional cards, it seems that the effect is not very big.

Just have to wait for the next opportunity.

After all, under Orochimaru, there are too many people who want to challenge his status and work for Orochimaru.

If you don't recruit your own followers as soon as possible, you may be secretly killed one day and become a stepping stone to others' promotion.

This may be the charm of Orochimaru-sama. He couldn't help but smile in his heart.

Just words and deeds are enough to make people go crazy for their lives.

That fanatical attitude of despising the bad habits of the world and pursuing longevity and truth makes people want to rely on them.

"Nothing else, hurry up and get out, before I can restrain my killing intent towards you."

Mizuki put down the kunai, turned around, and was indifferent.

"Okay, then good luck, don't forget to put things in the designated place. You should know the consequences of failing the mission. That spell is a double-edged sword that will enhance the power you've been craving, But it will also kill you."

Tou took a deep look at Mizuki's back, and his hands were sealed, turning into a cloud of white smoke and disappearing in Mizuki's room.

"What a nasty guy..."

It's not a personal incompatibility, but a professional conflict.

Being in the big dye vat of Konoha, I was already very tired.

As a result, he has to constantly compete with his 'peers', even if it is him, he will have the idea of ​​letting go of all distracting thoughts and letting his mind relax.

"Also, this curse mark is neither the curse mark of the sky nor the curse mark of the earth. This is the limit of my ability."

Mizuki stroked the location of the curse mark on his body, showing a self-deprecating smile.

The curse mark of Orochimaru can enhance the power of the ninja, but it also requires certain requirements for the quality of the 'sacrifice'.

If the quality is very high, they will be given two kinds of spells of heaven and earth.

If the quality is low, they will be given a semi-finished product, with average amplification ability, and a curse mark with strong sequelae.

Unfortunately, he is the kind of ninja with a very low talent.

Obviously he and Hatake Kakashi are about the same age, but the other party is already a big man in charge of the situation, but he can only live in the old age in the ninja school.

Whenever I see talented students in the school, I can't help but feel jealous. Why is my talent so useless? There is neither a family secret technique nor a bloodline limit...

As a teacher, Mizuki is well aware of the unfairness of this world.

Some come down to luck, some come down to human effort.

"Ugh……"

Being sentimental is not my style.

Mizuki has always been sober, what he longed for.

To stand out, to be a man above man.

For this reason, he kept climbing up, even if he was jealous, hated geniuses, or greedy for vanity in his heart, he just wanted to work hard to climb up.

In this world, a better life and dignity can only be achieved by constantly climbing upwards.

He enjoys the feeling of being embraced.

No matter Konoha or Orochimaru, they will only be stepping stones for his promotion!

At this moment, Mizuki's heart was unprecedentedly firm!

"Good morning, Iruka."

"Good morning, Mizuki."

At nine o'clock in the morning, Mizuki came to the office of the ninja school where he was, and found that Iruka had arrived early and was reading some student materials there. I'm probably worried about the students who are taking their graduation exams this morning.

So, Mizuki came up and said hello.

Iruka is regarded as one of his few close acquaintances, but unlike him who is not comfortable with the status quo, Iruka seems to be very keen on the job of a teacher. Compared with other seemingly good people, Iruka is more accepted by the school. Colleagues, and the love of students.

Although they are friends, Mizuki was also jealous of Iruka.

Why is Iruka, who is weaker than himself, more popular than himself?

In the past too.

He is obviously weaker than him, but in every rating test, he gets a higher score than himself.

Although affinity is one aspect, before becoming a teacher, those rating tests should focus more on ability, strength and display.

For a long time, Mizuki began to doubt himself whether he was not doing well enough in a certain area.

Jealousy is the driving force behind his promotion.

He wants to be a top person, even if his talent is only middle and top, but he also wants to enjoy the glorious moment that everyone has watched, stand out, and put his actions into action.

As a result, Iruka was more dazzling than him every time.

Perhaps, he was born a despicable person.

Therefore, every time he meets Iruka, Mizuki's heart is extremely complicated.

Jealousy, envy, longing, and hatred!

But these he will not show on the bright side, mature people should learn to control their emotions.

Even if you don't like the colleague in front of you, try to restrain your negative emotions and don't bring them to work.

"Are you busy with the students?"

Mizuki glanced at the student information in front of Iruka and asked with a smile.

Iruka sighed, nodded and said, "Yeah, I'm not worried about other students, but Naruto... Although I accepted your proposal from Mizuki, I gave Naruto extra counseling last night, but the effect was still ineffective. Jia. His use of ninjutsu is still not very handy. And this year's graduation test is transformation..."

In other words, Naruto, who had extremely poor performance in ninjutsu, was already sentenced to death in this year's graduation examination.

"Don't worry, I believe that Jiren has his own good looks, and Naruto will surely pass the exam today and become a Genin."

Mizuki strives to be what a teacher should be like.

Although he doesn't like Naruto, a bad student who relies on mischief to attract the attention of others.

Not only is he irresponsible for himself, but also affects the mood of other students in class and wastes their precious time.

Also, he thinks there are some things that can be said openly.

Unfortunately, thinking of the particularity of Naruto's identity, Mizuki also knew that this might be Naruto's only choice.

He was clearly a man, but in the end he was the only one who was concealed. Although not everyone in the village knew about it, except for children, adults were all insiders.

So what's the point of concealing it?

Anyway, Mizuki didn't quite understand what the Hokage-sama was thinking.

"Hopefully."

Although I hoped that Naruto would pass the exam, Iruka also knew that this hope was very slim.

It was really hard to make Naruto transform overnight.

Iruka is pessimistic about Naruto's successful graduation.

"Iruka, Mizuki, come over for a meeting. In half an hour, the exam time will come."

A bald man in his fifties walked to the door of the office and shouted to Iruka and Mizuki who were talking about things.

Because of the graduation examination, the school time is delayed today, so the sixth-grade students only need to arrive at the corresponding classroom before nine o'clock.

The official time for the graduation exam is 9:30.

"Yes, we know, come right away, Director Fujimura."

Mizuki nodded.

This bald man in his fifties is his and Iruka's direct superior, Fujimura Taiga.

A senior elite teacher who has served in the ninja school for 30 years. In the school, he can be regarded as the leader of him and Iruka.

Speaking of which, the other party is also a super celebrity at the ninja school.

After all, being able to teach three incomparably terrifying S-class betrayals, no matter whether it is a good reputation or a bad reputation, it also shows the extraordinaryness of the other party.

The students he taught have made a lot of great 'contributions' to Konoha over the years.

"Today's graduation test question is clone technique. As long as two complete clones can be summoned, the test will be passed. Well, other teachers will come over later to take care of the order and call their names in order. Classmates, go to the next classroom to take the test, students who haven't been called by name, please wait quietly in the class."

Iluka, who walked into the class after the meeting, explained the content of the test today and the order of the graduation test.

Then he glanced vaguely at Naruto, who was holding his head in distress, and sighed in his heart, but he didn't say anything in the classroom. If Naruto's ability failed, let him pass the graduation exam. , will only hurt Naruto.

Iruka couldn't do such a thing.

After Iruka finished speaking, he left the class and went to the next classroom to set up the exam room.

After Iruka left, some students in the class were happy and some were sad.

Mastering the Three Body Technique is not difficult, but it is not easy.

For most students, such a test is almost no different from a sub-question.

But for a small number of poor students, Clone Jutsu is not a basic ninjutsu that can be mastered so easily.

"What a boring exam."

Sasuke, who was sitting in the corner of the classroom, didn't feel the slightest fluctuation in the content of the exam announced by Iruka.

However, Sasuke had already anticipated this kind of thing.

The exercises that I usually do are also related to the three-body technique. In addition, it is the application of taijutsu and shuriken.

But that is something more fundamental than the three-body technique, and it is a skill that every student needs to master, so basically it will not be included in the assessment.

Sasuke cares more about who his future squad members are than this.

He inspected all the classmates in the classroom, and had already begun to estimate which two people would form a team with him.

First, the tail of a certain ten thousand year crane was excluded.

Not to mention whether the other party can successfully pass the graduation test, even if they can pass this test, it is impossible for them to be in the same team as themselves based on their ability.

Compared with this kind of crane tail, he hopes that the teammates in the team are the elites in the same class.

Sasuke glanced back and forth between the 'elites' in his class, estimating which two of them would become his teammates.

"Did you start looking for teammates so early? Sasuke is still so realistic."

Through the crystal ball unfolded by the three generations of Hokage, Kakashi noticed that Sasuke, who was sitting in the corner of the class, was scanning the backs of his classmates in the classroom. Kakashi knew exactly what the other party was looking at.

During the genin period, there will be regular teachers and teammates. For students, they can find out by asking a little about it.

Moreover, after being with him for a few years, Sasuke knew more information than the average student under the influence of his ears and eyes for many years.

Therefore, Sasuke must have been looking for his teammates a long time ago.

For a student with outstanding ability like him, his strength is enough, so he doesn't want his teammates to come to drag him down.

Because the other party needs revenge.

Sasuke will not put his extra energy on taking care of others.

Kakashi is well aware of this.

"This also shows the excellence of Sasuke. After your teaching, his strength is significantly higher than that of his peers."

Satsuki smiled with satisfaction.

The more powerful Sasuke is, the more obvious the potential benefits to Konoha.

The only difficulty is in the country of ghosts.

If Sasuke was told that there were still members of the Uchiha family in a distant country, what choice would the other party make?

Because of this, he arranged for Kakashi to befriend Sasuke and gain his trust.

To prevent this day from coming.

Not just to reassure Uchiha Itachi, who is far away from Konoha.

And because Sasuke will always grow up one day, his vision will gradually see the outside world.

Things in the country of ghosts will not be able to be concealed at that time.

In particular, the country of Oni plans to unite with the rest of the great Ninja villages to hold a joint Chunin exam this year. At that time, with Sasuke's temperament, he will definitely sign up for it.

Once Sasuke signs up for this joint Chunin exam, it means that he will definitely have contact with the Uchiha clan in the country of ghosts.

Perhaps, this is a good opportunity to test whether Sasuke can remain loyal to Konoha.

As for the grievances between the Uchiha clan and the higher-ups, this secret will forever settle in the endless abyss.

He believed that Itachi would make arrangements for this.

Itachi, who stood firmly on the side of the Will of Fire from beginning to end, never let them down.

"It's him who is too obsessed with revenge. Even without my teaching, he will do everything possible to become stronger."

At the moment when the other party survived with the belief of revenge, Kakashi couldn't treat Sasuke as a child completely.

After such a tragic incident, Sasuke's mentality has long been out of tune with the students of the same period.

While the students of the same age are still enjoying their childhood, the other party has hatred in their hearts. Every day, they are frightened by nightmares, covered in cold sweat, and their mentality has already changed.

Others need to "open meat" to become a real ninja.

And Sasuke, I'm afraid he can get used to this kind of thing quickly.

"In any case, for Sasuke's later teaching, you still need to be responsible for it yourself."

Day cut means something.

At present, among Konoha, only Kakashi can stabilize Sasuke's mood.

He hoped that Kakashi would let Sasuke make the right decision at the right time.

This is also a promise to the weasel.

For Konoha, you can also harvest a powerful Sharinyan ninja.

To deal with the Uchiha clan in the land of ghosts, it is necessary to rely on the ability of Sasuke.

Only the wheel eye can deal with the wheel eye better.

If you can turn on the kaleidoscope writing wheel, you will be more confident in dealing with the kingdom of ghosts.

"That Anbu job..."

Kakashi hesitated, although enough nails had been buried in Anbu.

But suddenly, to change to a new way of life, Kakashi felt a little uncomfortable.

Thinking about it carefully, he has been working in Anbu since the fourth Hokage came to power thirteen years ago.

Among the Anbu, he is considered a veteran-level figure.

Now, to leave all this behind and walk under the sun is a very long-lost experience for Kakashi.

Reminds me of some past events of following the fourth generation of Hokage Naruto Feng Minato.

"You don't have to hand it over to others. Some decisions still need to be made by your minister. Some trivial matters can be handled by Tianzang."

Said day.

"I understand. If Tianzang is concerned, then it will be no problem."

The other party is a staunch supporter of the will of fire, and he also has the limit of wood escape and blood.

As a high-ranking person, he will not tie all the power of Anbu to one person.

He, the Minister of Anbu, was originally obtained by accident.

Tianzang is the best person to share his power.

Teaching Sasuke was just an excuse he couldn't refuse.

Kakashi has long known that this day will come, and this has nothing to do with trust, but the decentralization of power, in order to better balance the power in the hands of subordinates.

Following their conversation, the school's graduation exam also reached an extremely critical time.

The picture presented in the crystal ball is of Naruto standing in the classroom used for the graduation exam with an uneasy look under the solemn gaze of several examiners such as Iruka and Mizuki.

It can be seen that Naruto does not have the slightest confidence in the next assessment of the clone technique.

He made the seals in the order of the clone technique, and with a bang, a clone that was pale and shrunken appeared next to him, lying on the ground like a dead fish.

"..."

Ri Zhan slightly lowered the hat on his head.

Kakashi also looked away.

Several examiners in the crystal ball have black lines.

Although they had long expected that it would be difficult for them to pass this exam with Naruto's abilities, such a bad avatar technique~www.readwn.com~ simply refreshed their understanding of the lower limit of avatar technique.

No matter how bad it has been in the past, it will not comment.

Although there is no explicit statement, the examiners' eyes express such meaning.

"Sure enough, it would be better to wait until the next year to conduct the assessment."

After a long time, Kakashi said such words.

One Sasuke is already troublesome enough. If Kyuubi Hiroki is also stuffed in, his work pressure will undoubtedly be even greater.

Rijian did not express his position on Naruto, but said: "Next, keep an eye on Mizuki, he will definitely take action against Naruto, and then follow this line to find out who is behind the scenes."

He was very worried that the person behind Mizuki was the man who was extremely dangerous to Konoha - Chiba Shiroishi!

"Yes."

Kakashi nodded, and the figure disappeared in front of Hizan.
