Hikaru Hokage

"Children, don't meddle in adults' matters. Take good care of your Tsunade-sama. She was indeed tired last night, but she was not in pain."

Hino Hikaru looked strangely and touched the head of the girl Shizune, who was still a piece of white paper.

The only disadvantage of wooden houses is that they are not soundproof enough.

-----

"Hino-san!"

"Hino..."

As soon as he arrived at the training ground, Hino Hikaru saw Nohara Rin and Kakashi greeting him.

Among them, Kakashi seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Hino Hikaru knew what he was thinking, but he still shook his head, indicating that he would discuss the matter later.

By the way, I wonder if any of them told Minato Namikaze about raiding Danzo's lair that night?

"Hino, today you officially join my Minato class. Also, thank you for protecting Kakashi, Rin, and Obito in the previous battle."

Looking at Namikaze Minato who was also standing in the center of the training ground, smiling and waving at him, Hino Hikaru was a little curious. What would Minato's attitude be if he knew about their dealings with Danzo?

For or against?

Or tell Sarutobi Hiruzen directly?

No, with Namikaze Minato's character, it would be impossible to take the initiative to tell Sarutobi Hiruzen about this.

But it is unlikely that they will be supported.

"By the way, from now on, just like them, just call me Minato-sensei."

"Yes, Mr. Minato..."

"Humph, his teacher is me, not you!"

Just when Hino Hikaru was about to call Teacher Minato Namikaze, Uzumaki Kushina appeared out of nowhere and suddenly pulled him over.

"Kushina?"

When Namikaze Minato saw Kushina blatantly "robbing people" in front of him, not only was he not angry, but he also showed a doting smile.

"You weren't angry with me yesterday..."

It seems like they had a couple conflict yesterday?

"Aren't you going to do a village mission soon? Why are you still here?"

Kushina looked at Namikaze Minato with a not very good expression.

"Sorry, I thought I could stay in the village for the whole day, but Hokage-sama temporarily..."

After realizing that Kushina seemed still angry, Namikaze Minato had no choice but to apologize again.

"Hokage-sama? Tsk..."

Compared to her previous respect for Hokage-sama, Kushina now only has disdain.

"There are indeed some rumors about Hokage-sama recently, but they are probably not true."

"Oh, that's not true? Then does your Hokage-sama dare to face me now?"

In addition to the promised date being given up, Namikaze Minato's attitude was also one of the triggers for the quarrel between Kushina and him yesterday.

"Kushina..."

"Forget it, it's useless to argue with you about this kind of thing. In short, it's me who wants to recruit disciples today, not you."

Kushina said as she took Hino Hikari's arm.

"Are you right?"

"Um……"

Faced with Kushina's unquestionable eyes, Hino Hikaru could only give in.

"Okay, then Hino will be your disciple in Minato's class from now on."

"What Minato class is, it's my Kushina class. I'm also a jounin, and I also have the ability to lead a class."

"But, without Hokage-sama's approval..."

"Don't talk to me about Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen is not worthy of being Hokage at all!"

"Kushina!"

Namikaze Minato also rarely showed an angry expression, but it was only for a moment.

"Lord Hokage has his own considerations, and the truth about this matter has not come out yet..."

"The truth, can the 'Nine-Tails' surveillance log I showed you be fake? Or do you think I am throwing dirty water on your Hokage-sama?"

Yes, that's right, many of those who posted big-character posters were paid by Kushina secretly, and she was also the main author of the big-character posters.

Of course, Hikaru Hino is still in charge overall.

"I……"

Namikaze Minato knew that this was indeed an irreconcilable conflict, but in his heart he didn't think there was anything wrong with Sarutobi Hiruzen spying on Kushina.

After all, he is the jinchuriki of the tailed beasts...

Considering the overall situation of the village, surveillance is also a form of protection.

"That's enough, I'm going to start testing my disciples, everyone else is waiting to get out of the way!"

Kushina took out a small bell from her arms, and then issued an order to expel Minato Namikaze who was about to say something.

"..."

Namikaze Minato looked at Hino Hikaru, who was obviously joining his class, Kushina, who didn't look like she was joking, and Nohara Rin and Kakashi, whose expressions remained unchanged.

Did something happen while he was away from the village?

Why is it that, except for himself, no one else is surprised at Kushina's sudden impulse to recruit a disciple?

Chapter 66 Hino Hikaru VS Kushina

"Come on, grab this bell from me, and I will officially accept you as a disciple."

Kushina excitedly took out the small bell in her arms.

In the past, she had watched Minato do this kind of entrance test for others, but this time it was finally her turn to try it herself.

But this excitement disappeared before it lasted even a second.

because……

"Oh, is that so?"

Hino Hikaru casually used his teleportation ability and easily snatched the bell from Kushina's hand.

Well, it's still warm up there, and she doesn't know where she hid the bell before.

"You, you, you... you can't be so fast, I didn't even say start! This doesn't count!"

Seeing the bell suddenly disappearing from her hand, Kushina hurriedly grabbed Hino Hikaru, trying to snatch the bell back, but unfortunately, Hino Hikaru had teleported ten meters away again.

"Hino's teleportation technique is faster than before. It's really powerful."

Namikaze Minato, who was still watching, couldn't help but praise.

"You want to praise?"

"sorry."

Then he was so frightened by Kushina's angry eyes that he helplessly raised his hands and smiled dryly.

"Humph!"

Seeing that Minato's attitude towards admitting his mistake was pretty good, Kushina didn't force him to leave anymore.

After all, the number and frequency of their meetings are becoming less and less now.

However, I always feel that this guy Minato cares more and more about the mission and Hokage, rather than himself...

Obviously some tasks can be turned down, but this guy just won't accompany me!

"Hurry up and give the bell back to the teacher!"

After glaring at Namikaze Minato, Kushina stretched out her hand to Hino Hikari not far away.

She hasn't had enough yet, how can she end the activity of grabbing the bell so quickly?

"Since the bell is now in my hand, let's let the teacher snatch it from me. If I do, I will be your disciple."

Hino Hikaru shook the small bell in his hand, and then casually tied the bell around his waist.

"How can there be such a thing?"

Of course Kushina didn't want to.

She came to test the disciples, why is she being tested by the disciples now?

"It turns out that sensei doesn't have confidence in his own strength. I'm just an ordinary chuunin. As a jounin, are sensei still afraid that he won't be able to grab the bell in my hand?"

Hino Hikaru was too lazy to play this little game of grabbing bells with Kushina. He just wanted to end today's "entrance" as soon as possible, and then go home and continue to study with Tsunade on how to improve his abilities and physical strength.

Let’s discuss the origin of life.

"But……"

But Kushina did not retreat as Hino Hikari thought, but really fell into his shallow provocation.

"Okay, then you are not allowed to use that secret technique that makes you invisible!"

Grab it, grab it, and show some shame to this disciple who doesn't respect his teacher today!

Kushina tied up her hair and looked confident.

"..."

Seeing that Kushina actually planned to grab the bell, not only Hikaru, but the entire Minato class showed weird and speechless expressions.

"If Obito were here, he would definitely laugh at Kushina-sama very loudly, right?"

How could any student ask the teacher to grab the bell...and the teacher really agreed.

Nohara Rin put her hand on her forehead, Kushina sister was too naive.

"Well, if Obito is here."

Kakashi nodded calmly.

"Well, Hino, please don't bully your sister Kushina too much..."

Although Namikaze Minato wanted to laugh a little, he felt that it was better to stop this farce for now.

"Bullying? Can he bully me? Minato, am I so...vulnerable in your heart?"

Kushina was a little concerned about whether Minato didn't let her leave the village every time because he thought she was too weak.

"No, that's not what I meant..."

Minato shook his head quickly.

Although Kushina is not weak, she is not very good at dealing with speed-type ninjas, and Hino Hikaru is not a genin who just left the ninja school.

In terms of actual combat experience, Hino Hikaru is more experienced.

Therefore, he was worried that Kushina would be embarrassed if she failed to grab the bell later.

"Then what do you mean?"

"I……"

At this time, Minato obviously didn't have much experience in arguing with his girlfriend, and he didn't know that at this time, other than admitting his mistake, he couldn't refute his girlfriend.

"Anyway, just give it a proper test. Hino also needs to know how to measure, you know?"

Facing the unreasonable Kushina, Namikaze Minato could only turn his attention to Hino Hikari.

"Humph."

As expected, they look down upon my strength...
