Master, Please Become a Hokage

At this moment, Great Toad Sage also closed his eyes.

No matter how Sage Zhitma inquired, it remained silent.

Two different futures flashed before Minato Namikaze's eyes, and his expression became extremely heavy...

Chapter 50: Rin Nohara

Afternoon, dusk.

Next to the Hokage Building, a dark alley, the Anbu entrance.

Sarutobi Ryo stood with his hands behind his back, gazing ahead.

Soon, footsteps sounded, and Yamanaka Kei walked over: "Young Master, Sakumo-sensei is still in the village..."

Just now, Sarutobi Ryo had Yamanaka Kei go to Hatake Sakumo's place and made an excuse to freeload dinner tonight.

Even many manhole covers eventually connect to Anbu or Root's lair.

In the dark underground, figures flickered.

From time to time, people from Anbu and Root came and went.

They focused on their own affairs, at most glancing at Sarutobi Ryo before leaving.

Obviously, they had already received Danzo's order and knew about Sarutobi Ryo joining Anbu.

Walking all the way, passing through layers of tunnels, finally, a spacious underground hall suddenly opened up before them, entering Sarutobi Ryo and Yamanaka Kei's field of vision.

This place was divided into several areas.

It could be clearly seen that there were area markers such as training areas, scroll storage, and preparation rooms.

Sarutobi Ryo didn't even think about it and went straight to the scroll storage.

Anbu recorded many secret materials, including not only various secrets, but also special records.

For example... human experiments.

Although, on the surface, human experiments had been listed as taboo, Anbu, as a branch profession, walked in the gray area.

Obtaining the enemy's corpse naturally required analyzing intelligence, which was something every ninja village would do, and Konoha was no exception.

Sarutobi Ryo was wondering if he could find some information about bloodline limits here.

"Young Master, I'll help you..." Yamanaka Kei understood his intentions and directly started searching from another bookshelf.

After a while, footsteps came, and Aburame Ryoma walked in: "Young Master Ryo, we meet again... Congratulations."

What Aburame Ryoma was congratulating was naturally the fact that Sarutobi Ryo would be appointed as "Anbu Squad Leader" in a week.

Joining Anbu and being promoted so quickly would inevitably cause controversy among outsiders.

At that time, some bad public opinions would inevitably spread in Konoha.

However, since it was Lord Danzo's appointment, Aburame Ryoma naturally obeyed.

"Ryoma-sensei, you came at the right time. I was just about to look up some information about bloodline limits. I wonder if there is any clue in this regard..."

Sarutobi Ryo put down the scroll in his hand and turned to look at the other party.

"Bloodline limit?" Aburame Ryoma was immediately surprised.

The first thing Young Master Ryo did when he came to the Anbu base was to look up the content about bloodline limits?

He thought about it and felt that it made sense.

After all, Young Master Ryo's father, the Third Hokage, was proficient in seven attributes, but he didn't have a bloodline limit...

"About the content of the bloodline limit..."

Aburame Ryoma pondered slightly.

"I'm afraid this level of secret needs to be reported to Lord Danzo..."

After thinking about it, Aburame Ryoma gave such an answer.

The scroll storage here did not contain any content about bloodline limits.

"You can't make the decision?" Sarutobi Ryo frowned slightly.

It seemed to be just an unconscious change in his face, but in Aburame Ryoma's eyes, it was sharp and exposed, and even the air seemed to become a bit heavier.

"What a strong sense of oppression..."

Aburame Ryoma frowned secretly in his heart.

If it were other ordinary Anbu ninjas, they would probably be a little timid in their hearts after being glared at like this.

But after all, he was Danzo's right-hand man and a long-established strong man.

So, Aburame Ryoma just slightly raised the corners of his mouth, and his tone was deliberately amiable: "It's not good to openly research bloodline limit information, after all... we have to take into account the feelings of various families..."

In Konoha, there were several bloodline limit families alone.

—Although no one from the Hyuga and Uchiha clans was in Anbu.

"Mm." Sarutobi Ryo nodded, knowing that he couldn't get anything from here, so he directly took Yamanaka Kei and left.

Aburame Ryoma's eyes under his sunglasses stared at the two leaving, and his expression slowly changed.

Originally, with his background and reputation, people would be very frightened when they saw him.

But unfortunately, this young master's identity and background were even stronger than him.

"Moreover, in terms of personality, this young master is completely different from his father, the Third Hokage..."

If Sarutobi Hiruzen was indecisive, kind, and benevolent.

Then, the feeling that Sarutobi Ryo gave Aburame Ryoma was that he was very sharp and had a very strong sense of self.

"Is this a good thing or a bad thing for Anbu and Root?"

Aburame Ryoma thought about it and decided to tell his superior, Lord Danzo, about what had just happened.

......

Coming to the surface, the two walked all the way and soon left the starting point.

"Young Master, aren't you going to find that old man Danzo?" Yamanaka Kei followed behind and asked.

Since Aburame Ryoma said to ask Danzo, then you can completely try to go directly to the old guy.

"It's meaningless."

Sarutobi Ryo shook his head and didn't plan to find Danzo.

In the original work, Danzo recruited Orochimaru, transplanted Hashirama cells, and fiddled with Sharingan... there must be a lot of research data on bloodline limits.

There was also a supplement in the official novel that Danzo had a medical team belonging to him, specializing in various human experiments, and obtained various results.

But once you find Danzo, it is easy to get on the pirate ship, which is not cost-effective.

Therefore, Sarutobi Ryo still decided to break through from another direction and additionally find someone to study the "Snow Clan Ice Release Remains" obtained from Ringo Ameyuri.

"Let's go, go directly to Sakumo-sensei's place."

There will always be a way when the time comes, Sarutobi Ryo decided to go to Hatake Sakumo's place first.

......

At the same time, Hatake Sakumo's house.

"Dad, why don't you want me to join Minato-sensei's command..."

Kakashi, who had finished a day of training with Jiraiya, encountered his father, who was going to report to the higher-ups, on his way home.

Hatake Sakumo explained to the higher-ups, requesting to transfer Kakashi and transfer him to the command of other Jonin, but was severely rejected by the higher-ups such as Koharu Utatane.

Sitting on the tatami in his own living room, Hatake Sakumo was a little embarrassed at the moment, because he didn't know how to open his mouth to his son.

"Among the many Jonin who can serve as "Guiding Jonin", there should be no one more excellent than Minato-sensei."

Kakashi, sitting across from the low table, had drooping eyelids and was quite angry in his eyes.

"Or... do you think I should be guided by Young Master Ryo?"

Kakashi mentioned Sarutobi Ryo, and he became even more angry in his stomach.

He crossed his arms, like a little adult.

He was very worried about what Sarutobi Ryo said during the day.

"Kakashi, in short..."

Hatake Sakumo hesitated, and at this moment, there was a sound of talking in the yard outside.

The father and son looked out together, and several figures quickly came into view.

Kakashi: "Rin? Obito?"

At this time, in the courtyard, Sarutobi Ryo and Yamanaka Kei, who came to visit, happened to meet two children who also came.

One wearing goggles was Uchiha Obito, who would be obsessed with love in later generations.

And the other, a little girl with purple tape on her face, was naturally the source of everything, Rin Nohara.

Seeing the little girl in front of him, Sarutobi Ryo's gaze slowly became hot.

Of course, the system did not pop up a prompt.

—Or maybe it's not time yet.

In short, there seemed to be a perfect opportunity in front of him.

"Young Master Ryo~!" Uchiha Obito stood at attention and greeted loudly and politely.

In comparison, Nohara Rin was much more well-behaved. She sweetly said a greeting, and Sarutobi Ryo nodded slightly: "Nohara Rin, I've heard of you..."

"Eh?" Nohara Rin was slightly taken aback.

"According to some teachers at the Ninja School, you have a very outstanding talent for medical ninjutsu, and you often go to Konoha Hospital to volunteer, and the medical ninjas also praise you a lot, is that so?"

Sarutobi Ryo looked at her. At a young age, Nohara Rin already had the appearance of a beauty.

Coupled with her gentle and sunny personality, it was no wonder that Uchiha Obito would be obsessed.

"Yes, yes, becoming a medical ninja no less than Tsunade-sama is my dream~!" Nohara Rin stood up straight immediately, feeling a little nervous.

"Very good." Sarutobi Ryo nodded and immediately coughed.

Nohara Rin observed his expression, her lips pursed slightly. After a few seconds, she said: "Young Master Ryo... Are you injured? It looks like an old injury that hasn't healed."

"Mm."

Sarutobi Ryo stopped coughing and gave his approval.

Not a disease, but an injury. Her judgment was completely correct.

"Could you please help me diagnose it by the way?"

Sarutobi Ryo made an inviting gesture, inviting Nohara Rin to the living room of Hatake Sakumo's house for a chat.

This was a very good start.

After that, perhaps he could let Nohara Rin help study the remains.

Now that Kakashi had graduated early, Nohara Rin and Uchiha Obito were still studying at the Ninja School. According to the development in the original work, it would take some time for the two to catch up.

This also showed that Nohara Rin had not yet gone to Minato Namikaze's command, and he could win her over in advance.

After all, in terms of medical ninjutsu talent, few people in Konoha could compare to her.

Sarutobi Ryo: "Test the waters first, see the specific situation before making plans..."

Chapter 51: Gift

Not long after......

Sitting in the living room, Sarutobi Ryo was already receiving Nohara Rin's diagnosis.
