Konoha's entry is ninja!

The three days of vacation passed in the blink of an eye.

April 19, Konoha 39.

Hoshita Shuichi and Uchiha Shisui met at the same place. After waiting for a while, Namikaze Minato appeared.

"Shuichi!"

Namikaze Minato raised his hand and handed out a scroll.

"Minato-sensei, this is..."

Hoshita Shuichi reached out and took it.

Namikaze Minato smiled and said: "I specially applied for Konoha-style swordsmanship from the Third Hokage."

"I see Shuichi that you are already proficient in using a short sword. This is just right for you."

Hoshita Shuichi was immediately overjoyed and bowed quickly: "Thank you Minato-sensei."

Namikaze Minato smiled and said: "I have never practiced swordsmanship specifically, so I can't give you guidance on specific practices."

"However, the swordsmanship of the Uchiha clan is also very powerful in Konoha style. Shisui will be a very good opponent for you."

Uchiha Shisui immediately smiled and said: "If Shuichi needs anything, just ask."

Xingxiaxiu thanked him repeatedly.

He won't be polite.

After putting away the scroll, Namikaze Minato announced: "This mission is to go to the Daming Mansion. It will take about seven days. You should make preparations and meet at the entrance of the village in half an hour."

"clear!"

Hoshita Shuichi and the others immediately dispersed.

When he got home and packed his things, Hoshixia Shuichi looked at the entry tree in his mind.

On the entry tree, the entry [Sword Expert] appears.

It didn't trigger after I mastered the use of the dagger before, but I didn't expect it to happen now.

Entry: [Knife Expert]

Acquisition conditions: Master the Konoha-style swordsmanship specified by Namikaze Minato, and win the swordsmanship duel with Hatake Kakashi.

Effect: The sword skill talent is increased by 100%, and the quality of designated ninja tools is increased by 100%.

Looking at the acquisition conditions, Hoshita Shuichi couldn't laugh or cry.

It's Kakashi again!

"Fortunately, although it is a duel of swordsmanship, the competition is not pure swordsmanship."

Shuichi Hoshita felt that he was not sure if he could beat Kakashi simply with sword skills.

After all, Kakashi was taught by Hatake Sakumo, and his talent was absolutely amazing.

As for the sword, why is it swordsmanship?

In fact, in the ninja world, swords include swords.

At the same time, the sword will be called a real sword.

Therefore, whether it is a knife or a sword, it is called swordsmanship.

In fact, Konoha-style swordsmanship covers a very wide range, and it is just a general term in itself.

For example, the Uchiha clan's swordsmanship, Hatake's swordsmanship, and the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama's Flying Thunder God Slash all belong to it.

There are also films such as Dance of the Three Suns and Moon, Moon Shadow, Konoha Ryu-Willow, which are all very representative.

Putting the scroll into his backpack, Hoshita Shuichi went out and went straight to the entrance of the village. After meeting with Minato Namikaze and others, he left the village and went straight to the Daming Mansion along the road.

However, this mission has plenty of time, so the speed is not very fast.

On the way, Namikaze Minato introduced the mission to the three of them: "This time, I actually went there at the invitation of the daimyo."

"Daimyo?"

Kurama Sanyang's eyes widened suddenly, and he asked quite excitedly: "Does the daimyo already know about us?"

Namikaze Minato smiled and said: "No, it is the daimyo who wants to form his own ninja guard and has already recruited a few people. He wants to ask the village to send ninjas to communicate, so the Third Hokage gave us this task. "

Kurama Sanyo was slightly disappointed, but then he doubted: "Isn't Konoha a ninja village in the Land of Fire? Why does the daimyo need to form his own ninja guard? Can't he just ask the village to send people there?"

This was what Uchiha Shisui was confused about, and he couldn't help but look at Namikaze Minato.

Namikaze Minato looked at Hoshita Shuichi: "Shuichi, what do you think?"

Hoshita Shuichi pretended to think for a moment and said: "The Hokage is the Hokage, and the daimyo is the daimyo!"

"The Land of Fire is the Land of Fire, and the Daimyo is the Daimyo!"

Anma Shanyang was confused.

Uchiha Shisui was thoughtful.

Namikaze Minato said: "Although the village can send out ninja teams to take turns guarding the daimyo, for the daimyo, after all, it is not as useful as ninjas who directly take orders from themselves."

Hoshita Shuichi continued: "It's like the Hokage has an ANBU directly under him, instead of giving orders to use the roots."

Anma Shanyang suddenly realized: "That's it."

Namikaze Minato was secretly surprised: "What a keen sense of touch..."

There was nothing before the Second Ninja War. After the war, the Hokage's orders to the roots were indeed only through Danzo, the leader of the roots, rather than issuing orders directly.

Of course, this is normal under normal circumstances.

Just like the Hokage would not directly order Hoshita Shuichi, Uchiha Shisui, and Kurama Sanyo to perform a certain task, but would give orders to him, the leading jounin, unless the leading jounin was absent.

But now Nebe and Danzo...

Namikaze Minato frowned secretly

At this time, Uchiha Shisui thought: "Just like a ninja tool, borrowing someone else's is naturally not as good as having your own."

Xingxia Xiu nodded and said: "That's right, and people have thoughts, but they are more difficult to master than the tools of endurance."

Namikaze Minato smiled and changed the subject: "Okay, this is the mission situation."

"Behave well when you get to the Daiming Mansion. Let the Daimyo know that Konoha's ninjas are the best."

"clear!"

"Don't worry Minato-sensei, no one will look down on us!"

…

Although the topic has changed, Hoshita Shuichi's thoughts are still there.

The daimyo wants to train his own ninja, so is this the beginning of the Twelve Guardian Ninja?

This reminded Hoshita Shuichi of Sarutobi Asuma.

Then he thought of Yuan Fei Shinnosuke.

Compared to his brother, Sarutobi Asuma does seem quite rebellious.

When he was in the ninja school, Sarutobi Hiruzen came to preach about the will of fire, but this guy contradicted him several times.

But for someone who is only five or six years old, it is normal.

Kakashi didn't pull too.

"Maybe I'm the outlier?"

Hoshita Shuichi laughed secretly.

…

At noon, Hoshixia Xiuyi and four others arrived at Daming Mansion, the largest and most prosperous city in the Fire Country.

The sky is clear and the streets are very lively, making people dizzy.

Namikaze Minato was not in a hurry to see the daimyo, so he took Hoshita Shuichi and the others shopping and bought a lot of snacks.

At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, Hoshita Shuichi and four others entered the daimyo's official residence and met the daimyo of the Land of Fire.

The Daimyo of the Land of Fire was slightly dissatisfied when he saw Hoshita Shuichi and the others: "The Hokage just asked you to come?"

A young man who looked no more than twenty years old, and the other three were children.

The Hokage was looking down upon him and perfunctory him!

At this time, Shuichi Hoshita and the other four were all kneeling on one knee. After hearing this, Minato Namikaze raised his head slightly and said, "Don't worry, Daimyo-dono, Shisui and the others are all very good genin. They have killed many times in the Land of Rain." to one’s own enemies.”

"As for me, I am also a Jonin of Konoha. I am willing to accept any test from you, and I will never let you down!"

The name of the Fire Country was noncommittal and said calmly: "In that case, let's give it a try!"

After saying that, he covered his mouth with his fan and gave some instructions to the attendant next to him.
