Chapter 21 (1/2)

”To create a B-rank ninjutsu at such a young age, this is really the son of White Fang, you really inherited your father's talent.”

although Danzo's words carried praise, his tone was indifferent and calm.​​

Neither he nor Hiruzen doubted the truth of these words, there is no point in lying about such things, because it is very easy to check.

Erase looked at Danzo, ”Thank for your praise, Lord Danzo.”

”You exceeded my expectations, Erase.”

Hiruzen praised Erase, and then said seriously: ”Although this is quite unexpected, but I have a mission for you.”

If they decided to send him to the Root, there would be no point in talking about it now.

Do not wait until Erase will understand the situation, Hiruzen continued: ”Your task will be to apply for early graduation...pass the Chuunin exam, which will take place in five days.”

” Chuunin

Exam?”

There is nothing surprising in applying for early release, after all only an official shinobi can start fulfilling missions, but why take the exam on Chuunin?!

” Let me describe a specific situation, you should be able to understand.”

Hiruzen got up, left the table, and began to walk slowly around the room: ”The other day, the Kumogakure and Kirigakure shinobi will arrive in Konoha to take part in the Chuunin exam, which will take place in five days, so the purpose of this exam is not just to weed out and promote good shinobi, but also to confront Kiri and Kumo!”

Now the situation in the world of shinobi is becoming more and more tense, next year should begin the Third world war of Shinobi, in such a situation, Kumo and Kiri most likely sent their shinobi to the exam held in Konoha, for the purpose of” demonstration ”and”negotiations”.

If you think about it, it's not surprising that Hiruzen gave him such a task.

Since the main purpose of the exam is ”demonstration” and ”negotiation”, they must take this with the utmost seriousness, it is impossible to choose just ordinary genins for the fate.

Quickly realizing the meaning of the mission, Yeruashi gave hiruzen a serious nod: ”I understand, Lord Hokage.”

”Fine, go get ready.”

Hiruzen nodded in satisfaction and waved His hand to indicate that he could go.

Erase Hiruzen bowed and left the office.

After Yeruashi left, Danzo looked at Hiruzen and said: ”It's even better than expected...give me this child to raise after the Chuunin exam, Hiruzen

.”: ”Don't even think about it, Danzo.”

Danzo was not going to give up, he frowned, stood up and turned to Hiruzen: ”I didn't mind when you decided to make Kakashi a student of Minato, but there should be shinobi walking in the shadows and carrying the darkness...giving Yeruashi to me would be the best choice, you should understand that! ”

”Let Yeruashi carry the darkness...”

Hiruzen frowned and muttered softly.

These words make sense, it was thanks to him on the surface and Danzo in the dark that Konoha was able to achieve its current prosperity, which is why he always turned a blind eye to many of Danzo's actions.

As Hokage, standing on top of the world shinobi, Hiruzen of course understands that where there is light, there will always be darkness, just have Minato who will inherit the title of Hokage, you must be the person who will inherit darkness and will support it.

Hiruzen returned to his seat and thought about it: ”I need to think about it. ”
