Chapter 173 Admission (2)
"It's so eerie here. I always feel like countless pairs of eyes are staring at me."
Omoi from the Hidden Cloud Village walked in the dormitory corridor with a frown on his face.
"Ah, you are such a troublesome guy."
Karui, who was standing by, was also frowning as he listened to his companion's mumbling.
This guy is too talkative. He has been muttering non-stop since leaving the Hidden Cloud Village. He either said that there were ambushes on the road or that the dormitory felt eerie.
This place is obviously facing the sun and should have good ventilation.
"Kakui, tell me about him too."
Karui looked at another companion, hoping that the other party could say a few words.
Kakui, who was called out, shrugged and said there was nothing he could do.
"The architecture here is really unartistic, huh."
As soon as they turned the corner, the three of them heard a childish voice.
"Really, Deidara-nii, I think this place is pretty good."
Turning the corner, the three of them saw a yellow-haired boy with a cocky expression and a black-haired girl commenting on the layout of the dormitory.
"who are they?"
"who are you?"
The five people who met each other were stunned for a moment.
"My name is Karui, this is Omoi and Kakui, we are from--"
"From the name, I know you are from the Hidden Cloud Village, huh."
The blond boy raised his chin and rudely interrupted their self-introduction.
"My name is Deidara, and this is Kurotsuchi. Remember my name, and I will become the greatest artist in the ninja world, huh!"
"..."
"It looks like they are about to have a quarrel. As expected of people from the Great Hidden Village, they speak so arrogantly."
In a dormitory, a young girl with green hair heard the noise in the corridor. Without even bothering to make her bed, she quietly opened the door and began to observe secretly.
"Hehe, it seems like I can make a lot of good friends."
"Youth, youth, youth!"
Just as the atmosphere among the few people fell into an eerie silence, a boy with a melon-shaped haircut and wearing a green tights walked past them in a handstand while shouting slogans.
The few people whose attention was attracted by each other even forgot about the quarrel.
Watching each other moving towards the senior dormitory, several people looked at each other and then burst out laughing.
"What a weird shape that is!"
"Yeah, are all senior students so weird?"
"Hey, you guys!"
Before they finished laughing, a figure quietly appeared behind them.
Feeling a strong sense of oppression coming from behind, the laughter of several people was forcibly interrupted.
"Oh no, it's the dormitory manager!"
Seeing the identity of the visitor, the green-haired girl didn't bother to look at the popularity and hurriedly closed the door.
"Uh... hello..."
Turning his head forcefully, Omoi looked at the woman with a bandage wrapped around her right eye and forced a smile.
"You guys, why don't you hurry up and clean up the dormitory? What are you doing here?"
"I'm warning you. Article 5 of the dormitory rules states that students are not allowed to fight in the dormitory. Do you understand?"
"Listen, I hear you clearly!" X4
"I heard it clearly, yeah!"
"Hmph, it's good that you heard it clearly. Remember, my name is Shimura Tae, and I'm the dorm manager of this dormitory. You can come to me if you need anything. My office is on the westernmost side of the third floor."
Looking at the people who kept nodding their heads like quails, Shimura Tae was very satisfied and then he smiled.
"Also, juniors should not make comments about seniors without any reason. This is the most basic courtesy. Do you understand?"
"Yes!" X4
"Yes, yeah!"
......
Meanwhile, in the Hokage's office.
“There are many amazing exchange students this year.”
Putting the list on the table, Jiraiya, wearing the Hokage robe, rubbed his forehead.
"Yes, Ōnoki's granddaughter and Rasa's son and daughter are all people who need special attention."
Tsunade on the side folded her arms across her chest and nodded in agreement.
"Really? Why don't they let their children receive education in their own village? Why do they come here and force us to assign people to look after them?"
Slumping in the seat, Jiraiya complained unhappily.
"Hehe, after all, the villages still need to rely on our supplies and scientific ninja tools, right?"
Not far away, Orochimaru leaned against the door and sneered sinisterly.
"Speaking of scientific ninja tools, Orochimaru, your financial expenditure has exceeded the budget again this month!"
Seeing his friends standing by with expressions of watching the fun, Jiraiya slammed the table and stood up.
"This is all for Konoha."
"I am the Hokage, Orochimaru!"
"So what, Jiraiya, don't forget that I am the Hokage's assistant."
"Tsk, I can't scare you..."
Jiraiya muttered and sat back down in his seat.
Clearly, I had the impression that my teacher stimulated Danzo in this way.
But why is the effect so different from what I said?
"Anyway, remember to prepare for the opening speech, Yondaime-sama."
Reminding Jiraiya and pulling the door handle open with his tongue, Orochimaru waved his hand and left the office.
"This guy......"
Looking at Orochimaru walking away in a swagger, Jiraiya felt so angry that his teeth were itching.
"That's right, Jiraiya, don't forget that without Orochimaru's research, Konoha's military strength would not be so far ahead of other villages."
Tsunade also stood on Orochimaru's side.
"Oh, by the way, remember to reimburse the medical department's budget."
Tsunade took out a bill from her chest and slapped it in front of Jiraiya. Without waiting for the other party's response, she left the office.
Jiraiya: "..."
"Old man, I quit!"
Pointing at the Kage Rock of the Sandaime Hokage outside the window, Jiraiya let out a cry of grief.
"Uh, Hokage-sama."
Looking at Jiraiya who was pointing out the window and cursing in the office, Uchiha Itachi, who was standing at the door holding documents, felt a little embarrassed, not knowing whether he should go in.
"Oh, it's Itachi, come in."
Looking at the young man wearing a forehead protector in front of him, Jiraiya instantly switched to serious mode and invited Uchiha Itachi into the house with a smile on his face.
"This is the village's enrollment list this year. I'll put it here first."
"Well, I miss you for your hard work. By the way, Itachi, I remember your brother is also among the students who enrolled this year."
Thinking of Uchiha Itachi's brother, Jiraiya couldn't help but recall the past.
I remember that Uchiha Fugaku had visited Danzo before the other party was born.
If it was a son, Fugaku hoped to name the child after Danzo's father.
I heard that Danzo's expression at that time was very interesting.
Later, it was unknown what Danzo said to the other party, but in the end Fugaku's youngest son was not able to use Danzo's father's name, but instead used the name of his teacher's father.
Sasuke.
Sasuke Uchiha.
