Konoha's task master

After the dinner under the tree, Jiraiya left Konoha. It is said that he traveled around the ninja world to observe the beautiful scenery... and publish a book.

But Yakumo felt that Jiraiya should be carrying some special mission, and Konoha was also looking for traces of the group that assassinated the Daimyo of the Land of Wind.

Come to think of it...this viewing of beautiful scenery shouldn't be too serious.

In the blink of an eye, the time comes to the end of October.

A new batch of Konoha chunin ushered in promotions and became Konoha jounin. During Hatake Sakumo's tenure as Hokage, the title of jounin did not require qualifications or background assessment. As long as the strength reached the jounin level,

Everyone can get promoted.

Jonin is more like a high-level wage earner in Konoha. Although the rewards for missions are more generous than those during the chunin period, the commission rate for Konoha Mission Department has increased by 25%.

After three days of competition, three people were finally promoted successfully.

Uchiha Obito was promoted to Jonin this time.

In the original work, Madara Uchiha gave birth to his talent with hatred, but now Yakumo inspires Obito through encouragement and love. Unfortunately, the effect is far inferior to the former... He failed to open the Mangekyō Sharingan at the age of fourteen.

Yakumo and Masako Mori came to the barbeque Q box.

At this time, only Uchiha Obito was present. He was wearing a Jonin's dark green vest and brand new goggles hanging on his forehead. He looked energetic and high-spirited.

Yakumo watched with his own eyes as Uchiha Obito quietly placed a bouquet of fiery red roses in the darkness of the box.

Roses represent passionate love.

Apparently he is planning to confess his love to Nohara Rin today.

"Here you go, Yakumo."

Uchiha Obito stood up and hugged Yakumo. Obito, who had been tempered by three battles, became less frivolous and impetuous and more practical and steady.

"Are you planning to..."

With a crash, Kakashi opened the door... and interrupted Yakumo's question.

Kakashi was wearing sky blue short-sleeved shirts and beige shorts, and his face was still covered with a black mask.

On his shoulder is a family heirloom weapon, the short chakra blade White Fang.

"Congratulations, Obito."

He was as concise and concise as ever, but his words contained a bit of joy, and Kakashi focused his eyes on Yakumo.

"Let's discuss it later?"

"good."

Yakumo nodded and agreed.

During this time, he was mainly busy curing Masako Mori, but he somewhat neglected this group of friends, and even missed several monthly dinner parties.

Now that Masako Mori has been cured, he is relaxed and has more time to allocate freely. At least he won't have the same sense of urgency as he did some time ago.

There was a crash, and it was Nohara Rin who came.

"Congratulations, Obito."

After entering the box, Nohara Rin handed the bouquet of carnations to Uchiha Obito, who immediately accepted it nervously.

Carnations represent friendship.

Yakumo noticed that Obito Uchiha's body was slightly tense and stiff at this time. This was the result of tension, and he couldn't help but shout to break the increasingly awkward atmosphere.

"Now that everyone is here... let's start eating."

Uchiha Obito carefully placed the carnation on the empty chair next to him. Nohara Rin had a smile on his face... and sat opposite Obito.

Her smile is very gentle and kind.

This kind of cuteness and weakness is like the girl next door, but she has a bit of mature tenacity and tolerance. She is like a gentle sister, and also like a proud lotus after the rain.

This kind of temperament can easily attract the love of young people, especially when that boy encounters setbacks and bullying, her appearance as the only light will leave a mark in the boy's heart for life.

"Ah, that's right...let's eat."

Obito Uchiha seemed to have just woken up from a dream, and immediately answered, pouring the prepared beef into the baking pan, accompanied by a sizzling sound, the aroma was fragrant.

"Let's raise a toast to celebrate, Obito has become a Jounin of Konoha!"

Yakumo raised the orange juice. If compared to Kakashi's achievements as a nine-year-old jounin, then the fourteen-year-old Obito might be a bit mediocre, but if you look at the entire Konoha... Obito is already considered to be the leading genius.

"Congratulations." Masako Mori immediately raised her glass.

"Thanks."

"bump."

The glasses of several people collided, and Obito drank all the juice in the glass boldly, while accumulating courage in his heart.

"The three people who passed the assessment this time are Obito and the youngest, right?"

Yakumo held the grilled meat with a look of curiosity on his face, and took the initiative to ask about the contents of the Jonin examination.

In this jounin assessment, in addition to the necessary written test, the most important thing is to fight against the elite ANBU jounin and remain undefeated for fifteen minutes.

Uchiha Obito shared the content of the assessment with some excitement.

From the thrilling passing of the written examination to the fierce battle with the ANBU elite Jonin, what he said... made several people feel like they were there, as if they had participated in it personally.

Especially... Nohara Rin's serious expression made Obito become more and more excited, and his voice gradually became louder.

The remaining people began to eat the meat on the grill pan. When Uchiha Obito reacted, nearly 90% of the food had been eaten, leaving only a few vegetables to relieve the greasiness.

Originally, he planned to wave his hand and order more barbecue, but then he thought that this meal was his treat, so he had no choice but to give up.

Obito Uchiha should be very rich. He has experienced three wars and carried out many dangerous missions, so he naturally has some wealth.

But he was quite poor, and most of the income from his mission was spent on the poorer widowed old ladies, buying food for them and repairing their houses.

"Let's get there today."

After finishing the vegetables, Uchiha Obito pretended to be full, and lay down lazily on the sofa, but his eyes were peeking at the location where the roses were hidden.

Masako Mori waved her hand and ordered a dozen more plates of meat. After the three genes were perfectly integrated, she began to strengthen her body and chakra.

This also affected her appetite... becoming extremely scary.

The bit of meat just now can only be counted as fruit before meals.

It didn't take long for several young waiters to serve the meat and replace the copper baking sheets for everyone.

"I'll treat you to this meal," Yakumo said.

"No, I must treat you to this meal!"

Uchiha Obito sat up and spoke firmly.

But his eyes were a bit lacking in confidence, so he turned his chopsticks directly into combat mode, keeping his eyes focused on the beef that was dripping oil on the baking sheet.

This time it's his turn to kill everyone!

But Masako Mori was faster...the two began to compete and compete.

Yakumo stood up silently, left the box in the name of going to the toilet, ordered some barbecue for Masako Mori, and finished paying the bill.

Although Yakumo didn't know where Obito's money was used, he could see that Obito was lacking confidence when he spoke.

This was the move to pay in advance.

After paying the bill, Yakumo went for a walk on the street and bought Masako Mori's favorite refreshing lemon tea.

When he returned to the box, Obito had been defeated, leaving only Masako Mori who was still eating.

"It took you a little long to go to the bathroom."

Uchiha Obito said.

But when he looked at Masako Mori, his eyes instantly became suspicious of life.

At the same time, he secretly thought in his heart.

"I can't afford this purchase... I can only owe it first."

He never dreamed that the first thing he would vouch for as a jounin after becoming a jounin would be food money. Fortunately, here is the BBQ Q, and the Akimichi clan can give Konoha jounin some dignity.

"I made an order and bought a few cups of lemon herbal tea. Does anyone want it?"

"I want I want."

Masako Mori immediately raised her hand.

"I also want…"

Nohara Rin also raised her hand.

Yakumo distributed the lemon herbal tea in turn, and finally handed it to Obito.

Their eyes met, and Yakumo understood Obito's eyes.

"My benefactor!

After Yakumo divided the herbal tea... he sat next to Obito and listened to his very quiet tone.

"Thank you, you are indeed a good brother!"

"You are welcome."

Half an hour later, Masako Mori was relieved about the dishes and chopsticks.

Yakumo moved his position, carefully wiped the oil stains from the corners of Masako Mori's mouth with a napkin, and at the same time made way for Obito's next performance.

Uchiha Obito's eyes were fixed on the dark place where the roses were hidden.

But he was as motionless as a marble statue.

At this time, Obito was very nervous.

Masako Mori spoke casually and led everyone to start chatting. After a while, the private room was filled with a cheerful atmosphere. Even Uchiha Obito joined in with excitement, sharing some embarrassing anecdotes.

"Ahem."

Yakumo coughed lightly, stretched out his legs and kicked Obito, signaling him to get down to business quickly. Now Nohara Lin was smiling like a flower and in a good mood...

What a good opportunity.

Uchiha Obito was stunned for a moment, then pretended not to see Yakumo's eyes... and just chatted with others.

"Go, go, go."

Yakumo continued to wink.

Uchiha Obito was unmoved and even yawned.

"He's scared!"

Boom... Yakumo stretched out his leg and kicked again, sliding his body from the sofa to next to Uchiha Obito... reminded him in a low voice.

"If you are willing to be just friends, then just be cowardly."

Uchiha Obito sat up straight, and instinctively touched the pocket on his thigh with his right hand, where there was the confession statement he had prepared for today.

A line of text comes to mind.

"Would you rather be friends...or be brave for once?"

Yakumo and Masako Mori are cheering for Obito with their eyes!

"bump."

Slapping his palms heavily on the table, Uchiha Obito stood up and stared at Nohara Rin with fiery eyes. However, he did not open his mouth to express his love, but stayed in place like a robot that had exhausted its energy.

Under the table, Yakumo kicked this unsatisfied brother.

Everyone's eyes fell on Obito, and anyone who could sit here could guess his next plan, even Nohara Rin was no exception.

Uchiha Obito's secret love is just a secret love that he thinks he has.

"Lin, I'm as strong as Kakashi now, can you give me a chance to protect you for the rest of my life?"

Yakumo has a bad heart, so this is definitely a poor confession.

Uchiha Obito felt relieved after saying this. He had taken a brave step forward, and he only had to look forward to the results.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Nohara Lin.

"Then I... will give you a chance."

Nohara Lin had a smile in her eyes and agreed very easily.

Upon hearing this, Obito Uchiha immediately knelt down and took out the roses he had prepared in advance. Unfortunately, due to the long time, some of the roses in the center had lost some moisture, became wilted, and lost their luster.

He was a little blushing or shy, but still handed it to Nohara Rin.

"Actually, I prefer carnations."

But to everyone's surprise, Nohara Lin smiled and picked up the carnation at hand, but did not take the rose from Obito's hand.

Now even Yakumo couldn't understand Nohara Rin's thoughts.

It seems that I have not refused, but it seems that I have already refused.

"Oh well…"

Uchiha Obito is still very motivated.

But Yakumo could detect a feeling of sadness... gestating in him. This sadness was very strong, but it was carefully hidden.

Several people left the barbecue Q, while the rose bouquet was left on the table in the private room. Obito held the carnation gifted by Lin in his hand.

On the way home, several people parted ways one after another.

"Ya, can you guess Lin's thoughts?" Yakumo asked.

"No...I thought she would agree to Obito." Masako Mori replied, a little unclearly, and in her mouth...she was drinking her third cup of lemon herbal tea with a straw in her mouth.

"Yeah, I thought she would agree... You go back first, I'll go and comfort Obito, he feels he will be very sad."

"Okay." Masako Mori replied calmly.

Yakumo turned around and left. Before leaving... he created a shadow clone to protect Masako Mori.

Soon...he found Uchiha Obito.

But what surprised him was that standing next to Obito was Nohara Rin.

She rejected Obito and came here to comfort him.

Yakumo was a little confused as to what kind of magical operation this was.

But as they walked, the two of them actually held hands...

"???"

"We just got together today...or are we secretly in love?"

But Yakumo thought about the pain hidden in Obito's eyes when they were in the box. It was estimated that the two of them had only confirmed their relationship a few minutes ago.

So...why didn't Nohara Rin agree in the box?

Yakumo turned his head, Kakashi was silently looking at the backs of Obito and Lin, with a look of astonishment in his eyes.

Obviously he didn't know the development trajectory of this matter.

"Let's compare notes?"

"No, I'm going to ask." Kakashi replied.

"They are dating."

But Kakashi was already close to the two of them.

"It doesn't matter. Since we are friends...there is no need to worry about it."

Yakumo thought for a while and finally chose to leave. Anyway, he came after him to comfort Obito. Since he didn't need to comfort him, he might as well go back to accompany his girlfriend.

In early November, Obito and Nohara Rin officially got together.

Yakumo is not very clear about the process, but he expresses his blessing.

From that day on, Obito seemed to have been given a boost, and his level of hard training increased by several levels. Nohara Rin would also patiently accompany Obito to practice, and the two often showed off their affection as if no one else was around.

Kakashi Hatake seemed to be extremely alone.

Yakumo Arimori Masako.

Obito and Nohara Rin.

But...Kakashi only has White Fang in his hand.

In the training ground, Yakumo and Kakashi are competing.

Yakumo seemed very calm and relaxed, trying to stimulate his potential and talent as much as possible without harming Kakashi. With the blessing of thunder chakra, Kakashi's speed gradually exceeded the limit... and continued to increase.

Although Kakashi is gifted with the ability to master all types of chakra, what he is best at is the use of thunder chakra and Hatake style ninjutsu.

This is the core and foundation of his combat system.

The short blade in Kakashi's hand was extremely dangerous, and it kept wandering around, but was unable to penetrate the five feet between Yakumo, as if there was an immovable barrier there, blocking Kakashi's attacks countless times.

After hundreds of fights, Kakashi's chakra was exhausted.

Under the shade of a tree in the distance, Nohara Rin and Masako Mori were chatting about girls' topics, occasionally letting out crisp laughter, making the surrounding environment brighter.

Obito Uchiha was practicing the fire escape ninjutsu in the open air under the sun.

Along with the hand seals, a dragon-shaped flame more than ten meters long protruded from the mouth... igniting the surrounding air, and a heat wave immediately swept through the surroundings.

Currently, Kakashi's strength can be regarded as an elite Jonin.

Uchiha Obito's strength can be regarded as a relatively powerful Jonin, but there is a slight gap between him and Kakashi in terms of combat intelligence. After all, he is not good at using his brain.

The fire dragon dissipated, and Kakashi turned around in surprise. His gaze directly skipped Yakumo and Kakashi and stayed on Nohara Rin.

At this time, Yakumo and Kakashi were no longer in his eyes.

At this moment, Yakumo suddenly remembered the game prompt sound.

"Ding dong, congratulations to the player for completing the bonding ninjutsu."

"We should overcome difficulties together."

"Mission goal: save Nohara Lin and change destiny."

"Task status: Submittable."

Not far away, Uchiha Obito was holding Nohara Rin's little hand and was sharing the joy of successfully practicing ninjutsu.

"Good guy...is he really worthy of being a love brain?"

Before falling in love, Obito: He can go to all lengths for his brothers.

After falling in love, Obito: I will die for Rin!!
