"Thank you for your support, Sarutobi-sama!"

"These cross-country children are the hope of our village's future, and I will definitely be able to take good care of them!"

In Konoha Village, there are many people who can call the Fourth Hokage by his first name. For example, cross-country uncle Nara Shikaku, Akimichi Choza and other people who are close friends with the Fourth Hokage privately call the Fourth Hokage "Minato". "of.

However, there is only one person in the entire Konoha Village who can call the Fourth Hokage by his name and be honored by the Fourth Hokage.

That is the Third Hokage who trained the Sannin and is known as the "Ninjutsu Professor" in the ninja world!

As for the fourth generation Hokage's succession, why the execution of a plan requires the support of the third generation Hokage, then we have to talk about the distribution of power in Konoha Village during the third generation period.

During World War II, the second-generation Hokage Senju Tobirama died in battle, and the third-generation Hokage succeeded. The power of the Hokage in Konoha Village was at its lowest point in history.

The wealthy Senju clan and Uchiha clan that founded Konoha Village could be said to have held half of the power in Konoha Village when the Third Hokage just succeeded to the throne. If it weren't for the fact that the Third Hokage had trained the Sannin, and the Sannin were all very competitive. If so, even with the help of friends such as Danzo Shimura, it is estimated that the third generation of Hokage will not be able to take away the rights that originally belong to him from the wealthy family.

When the Fourth Hokage succeeded to the throne, the situation became even more complicated.

The Senju clan has disappeared from the stage of history, but didn't the Sannin also disappear from the Leaf Village?

In the past, there was a fight between the wealthy Uchiha clan and the Hyuga clan. Behind the scenes, they had to guard against the Konoha elders who had previously assisted the Third Hokage in fighting for power and later sought to seize their own rights. This was equivalent to weakening the Fourth Hokage's power in the Leaf Village. . Therefore, despite the fact that the Fourth Hokage is very prestigious in Konoha Village, no matter what plan he wants to implement, the Fourth Hokage needs to obtain the approval of the Third Hokage first before he can overcome all opinions and execute it smoothly.

Then, looking at the joyful Fourth Hokage for the plan he was about to execute, the Third Hokage sighed deeply.

At this time, only the Third Hokage knew what price he paid for the Fourth Hokage.

However, when the Third Hokage's eyes fell on Cross Country again, a faint smile finally appeared on the frowning Third Hokage's face.

"Minato is right. As long as the new seeds sprout and bear fruit, it will be worth whatever price you pay."

"Nara Cross Country, I hope Minato didn't misjudge you!"

"After all, Minato's plan is centered around you!"

Secretly thinking, the figures of the Third Hokage and the Fourth Hokage disappeared there one after another.

On the other hand, off-road naturally cannot sense the existence of the Third Hokage and the Fourth Hokage. After all, he is a well-known shadow-level powerhouse in the ninja world, and off-road is at best an elite genin!

A slightly stern gaze fell on the pig-faced masked ANBU.

When Cross Country used a method that both the Third and Fourth Hokages felt were perfect to force the three Anbu in front of him to stop the farce, the three Anbu who were defeated by Cross Country surrendered without the slightest complaint.

Who would have thought that the three ANBU who fought against Cross Country surrendered, but the ANBU who fought against Akai went even further!

It's like racing.

Almost as soon as he defeated three ANBU cross-country, the ANBU who fought against Akai became serious, and his moves never left Akai's body. It didn't look like a test, but a real fight!

Seeing that Akai's situation was a bit dangerous, Cross Country frowned and formed a seal to stop the crazy ANBU.

But what made Cross Country never expect was that when he was about to help Akai, Akai noticed Cross Country's movements and shouted directly:

"Off-road, don't help me!"

"This is a contest between me and Kakashi, don't interfere!"

Kakashi?

Listening to Akai's roar, Cross Country was stunned. Apparently, he had never thought that there were famous plot figures among the ANBU who came in unexpectedly.

Then, he released several Anbu who were restrained in their hands, ignoring them and disappearing in front of him in a hurry. Cross Country focused all his attention on the confrontation between Akai and Kakashi. While watching, he secretly sighed: "Hatake Ka Kashi, that's awesome! Kai's taijutsu has long been able to crush Chuunin of the same level, but now Kakashi only uses taijutsu, and he doesn't fall behind at all. It seems that he has not completely fallen after getting the Sharingan. Well!"

"Um?"

"Oh, Kai, what a pity!"

Secretly commenting on Kakashi's strength, Cross Country did not expect that Akai lost a little bit in the end, and finally lost at the hands of Kakashi.

But when faced with failure, Akai always looks optimistic.

Then, Akai stretched out his right hand towards Kakashi. It was obvious that Akai wanted to form a seal of reconciliation with Kakashi after his defeat.

But then, what made Cross Country feel a little angry was that Kakashi not only ignored Akai's kindness, but also gave Cross Country a very nasty look.

Especially after discovering that all the ANBU who had been defeated by Cross Country had left, Kakashi snorted coldly and said in an indifferent tone: "What a bunch of losers, they know how to run away when they fail, and they don't even have the slightest ability to face failure. Don’t you have any courage?”

As he said that, Kakashi, whose face was hidden behind the mask, cast his cold gaze on Cross Country and asked directly: "Are you Nara Cross Country?"

"it's me!"

"What, want to challenge me?"

Everyone has a three-point anger, let alone a very straightforward off-road character!

A genius can be proud, but pride also has to be divided into people!

At this time, Kakashi's pride is simply a trick of group ridicule. Not only is Akai with an excellent personality scratching his nose in embarrassment, even cross-country is unavoidably a little angry.

It's a pity that cross-country is obviously not well-trained when it comes to angering others.

Looking at Kakashi again, he didn't pay attention to Koyo's words at all. He still looked at Koyo's angry pupils with cold eyes, and said to himself: "You are Minato-sensei's disciple, so you can call me senior from now on." Yes. Even if you and Akai have passed this test, you can come to the No. 8 training ground to report tomorrow."

"I have other things to deal with, let's go first!"

"Remember, don't be late! Even if you are an intern Anbu, you must abide by Anbu's rules. If you make a mistake, you will face punishment!"

Whoosh!

As soon as the voice fell, there was no chance to ask a question, and Kakashi's figure disappeared in an instant.

It was Akai, who didn't care about Kakashi's bad attitude at all. Hearing that he was qualified to become an intern Anbu, he was so excited, and he didn't let go of cross-country.

As for off-road?

Looking at Akai who was happy there, his head was full of flaws!

"Bah! What is an intern Anbu?"

"Isn't it just a temporary worker!"
