Although Qingshui just smiled calmly, it was just a polite smile.
To be honest, Minato's talent is definitely top-notch, but the performance of the three members of Tsunade's team seemed to make Orochimaru understand something.
Orochimaru subconsciously licked the corner of his mouth with his long tongue. Just as he was about to add fuel to the fire, Asuma was quicker than him -
"Teacher Jiraiya, have you ever seen a genius at Qingshui's age who has three magatama Sharingan, is proficient in Tobirama-sama's high-level water jutsu, is good at all the fire jutsu and swordsmanship of the Uchiha clan, has mastered the Thousand Hands' strange power, and has such abundant chakra?"
Asuma spoke fluently, as if he was reading out the names of dishes: "Does Qingshui not know the Sealing Technique? I heard that Lord Mito has been expressing his feelings many times recently, saying that Qingshui's talent is just like that of the Uzumaki clan!"
After Asuma finished speaking, even Qingshui looked at him in surprise.
Did you peek at my system panel? You seem to know it better than me...
Tsunade patted Asuma's shoulder in amusement, "Good boy, you said what I wanted to say."
Asuma puffed out his chest, as if Qingshui's strength made him, an ordinary Genin, proud, and said in a loud voice:
"Although Minato-san is also very good, if there is anyone who can be the Hokage, I think it must be Aomizu!"
Qing Shui shook his head helplessly, patted Asuma's shoulder, and teased himself: "Asuma, let's think about how to become Chunin first. Senior Brother Minato is already a Jonin, but we are still working as Genin..."
Minato laughed awkwardly: "Sorry everyone, Jiraiya-sensei is a little drunk, and I just got promoted to Jonin not long ago. Although I really want to be the Hokage, it's still a bit far away from me..."
For a moment, Qingshui and Minato were explaining to each other, both of them were smiling, seeming helpless.
But after Asuma finished speaking, the atmosphere became a little subtle.
Although the original intention of today's dinner was indeed just a simple gathering, there was a 99% chance that the future Hokage of Konoha would appear among these people.
This is because everyone here is a member of the core circle of the Hokage. Even Nohara Rin, who seems mediocre, can at least be the director of a strong department in the future as long as he can play to his strengths.
To put it bluntly, even a ninja like Hatake Sakumo can't find his place at this table.
This has nothing to do with strength, only with identity...
Even so, there are internal rules regarding the inheritance of the position of Hokage.
It's a very simple truth. If Tsunade becomes the Hokage, then the possibility of Minato becoming the Hokage will be much lower than that of Aomizu.
The current situation in Konoha regarding the competition for the position of Hokage has also become complicated because of Qingshui...
Jiraiya claims that he is looking for the Child of Prophecy and theoretically withdraws from the competition, but in reality he supports his apprentice Minato Namikaze to become Hokage and often praises Minato's talent in public.
Orochimaru was originally the most promising, but he was involved in the turmoil related to Shimura Danzo, and his attitude was very ambiguous, as if he was going to lie down. After all, with his ability and qualifications, Sarutobi Hiruzen had no other choice.
But after Qingshui appeared, Tsunade, whose hemophobia was cured, became very popular and received a lot of support.
She was originally the most legitimate Fire Flag of Konoha. Both of her grandfathers were Hokage, her grandmother was the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, and she herself was a powerful medical ninja, so she was very popular.
Now he has a super genius from the Uchiha clan, the son of the Third Hokage, as his disciple...
Although Tsunade wasted a few years, her foundation and team are too rich. Even though Qingshui is still young, Tsunade has never said that only fools would want to be Hokage after she recovered from her hemophobia.
The originally lively dinner party suddenly fell into silence due to an argument between Asuma and Jiraiya.
Everyone present is a top talent. Although some of them have problems with emotional intelligence in love, everyone has thought clearly about this matter involving the fundamental interests of future development.
This has nothing to do with quality, but there is only one position of Hokage, and whoever wants it must win over the others!
this is the truth.
No matter whether it was Tsunade, Orochimaru or Jiraiya, no one would think that they could give in and let the other party become Hokage first and then pass the position to their apprentice...
The example of Danzo Shimura is right in front of them. Once you miss the chance to become Hokage, it’s almost like you’ll miss it forever.
Throughout history, few emperors would take the initiative to pass the throne to their nephews...
The atmosphere became increasingly awkward. No one spoke for a while and everyone ate in silence.
Only Nohara Lin stared with her big eyes in confusion and blinked hard. She was the only one who didn't understand what was going on.
Why is no one talking all of a sudden?
"It's such a coincidence that today is not a mission day, so how about we have a sparring match after such a long absence?"
Orochimaru clasped his hands together, his eyes as aggressive as a venomous snake: "Jiraiya, Tsunade, it seems like we haven't had a fight in a long time?"
Orochimaru was not very happy. It was a bit disrespectful to him to talk so much about the position of Hokage in front of him.
The so-called position of Hokage should have been his.
In Orochimaru's heart, he can give up the position of Hokage, but he can't give up Sarutobi Hiruzen...
Although Minato Namikaze's tone was very humble, the desire in his eyes could not be faked.
As for Qingshui, Orochimaru didn't think that a thirteen-year-old child could pose any threat to him.
"Stinky snake, what are you pretending to be? Myobokusan Sensodojiraiya can take you down at any time!"
"Want to fight? Sure, I haven't used my fists seriously for a long time..." Tsunade twisted her neck and said indifferently.
The scene suddenly became heated.
Since no one can explain it clearly in words, why not try it with actions?
Namikaze Minato frowned, he didn't want the matter to become such a big deal...
When his eyes swept over Qing Shui beside him, his heart moved, and he spoke softly: "Teacher Jiraiya, Master Tsunade, Master Orochimaru, you are all important figures in the village. Now is the critical period for Master Mito..."
After saying that, Minato looked at Kushina beside him.
The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was about to be handed over, but Sarutobi Hiruzen's three disciples started fighting at this time. This would indeed make the ninjas in the village imagine a lot and easily cause people to be unsettled.
Jiraiya nodded: "Minato is still thoughtful, you stinky snake, you should learn more!"
Orochimaru narrowed his eyes dangerously and asked, "Comparing me to a junior?"
Jiraiya, you are so arrogant...
But Jiraiya didn't give him a chance to reply, and waved his hand: "However, since the atmosphere has come to this point--"
"I told you at the last gathering, Tsunade, that we should let Asuma and Qingshui see how good their senior brother is. So today, let the disciples take the lead on our behalf. Is that okay?"
"As for the stinky snake, he doesn't have a disciple for now... let him take care of it today!"
Jiraiya still controlled his temper and didn't say anything like asking Minato to fight Orochimaru.
Tsunade snorted coldly, but still looked at Qingshui for questioning.
Qing Shui and she blinked.
"Okay, let's find a place and go now!"
Tsunade said arrogantly: "Jiraiya, today I will show you what a true genius is!"
There's one more chapter! I'll have dinner first!
By the way, I wish all my readers a happy National Day!
What did you eat today?
Please give Xiaofan two tickets! OR2!!!
Chapter 95: Qing Shui and the young Minato, all the bigwigs in the ninja world came to see
On the training ground.
Qingshui and Minato stood opposite each other.
In the spectator seats nearby, Tsunade, Orochimaru and Jiraiya were looking at the two men, and the atmosphere was somewhat subtle.
A battle for the right to inherit the throne?
That's far from being so exaggerated.
The first sequence at present is still the three people of Hiruzen Class. The position of Hokage is not decided by a one-on-one duel.
But I have to say, this scene has a sense of déjà vu...
Two brothers who both seem to have ideas about the position of Hokage, no matter what they think in their hearts, even if they say in advance that it is just a simple exchange, it can't be simple...
"Tsunade, just wait and see, Minato's strength will definitely be beyond your expectations!" Jiraiya opened the champagne in advance, and seemed to have seen the golden flash, and he was about to take down Aoki in an instant.
"Jiraiya, there are some things you should talk about later..."
Tsunade crossed her arms and said with confidence, "Aoi-sui, you are a ninja that people always trust!"
Orochimaru looked at the quarreling Tsunade and Jiraiya with amusement, narrowed his eyes slightly, and stared at Minato's figure.
Orochimaru is very curious about Minato Namikaze.
How talented is Minato Namikaze to make Jiraiya seem like he has lost his mind and think that his apprentice will have the possibility to compete with him for the position of Hokage in the near future?
Orochimaru even felt that if Jiraiya himself were to compete for the position of Hokage, he wouldn't be so confident...
"Uchiha family kid, work hard and let me watch you for a while longer..."
Orochimaru encouraged Qingshui softly, he did not take Asuma's boasting seriously.
An Uchiha who knows the Second Hokage's water jutsu, the extraordinary strength of the Thousand Hands, and the Uzumaki clan's sealing technique?
That’s enough. Just knowing the basics makes you think you can use it in actual combat?
Jiraiya was amused at that time!
However, after all, Asuma is a cute but weak Genin, so it is normal that he has poor vision.
However, there were other people who were paying attention to this competition.
After Uchiha Madara used his ultimate wisdom to decide that sincerity was the ultimate move to defeat Qingshui, he felt relieved.
Every day I focus on keeping healthy, trying to be more presentable when meeting Qingshui, and occasionally turn on the Baijue brand TV to see how Qingshui is doing...
Even though Qingshui could not be watched in the Senju ancestral home, Uchiha Madara was still very patient.
Just wait.
According to Black Zetsu's report, Uchiha Obito, the designated lackey and spare tire of Qingshui, has been controlled by it from the inside out and can quickly turn evil at any time.
Now, everything is ready, except for a fierce enough ninja war...
"Master Madara, wake up quickly, Master Qingshui didn't go to the Senju ancestral house today!"
In a trance, Uchiha Madara, who was taking a nap, heard White Zetsu calling him: "Master Qingshui is going to fight with someone. I heard that the yellow-haired guy on the opposite side knows the technique that allows him to teleport. He is a very difficult opponent!"
Uchiha Madara woke up instantly...
