Chapter 143 (2/2)
Erase only a year older than him!
Imperceptibly, the gap between them became simply monstrous!
”What happened? Why are you so depressed, brother?”
Erase grinned: ”I heard that you recently advanced to Tokubetsu Jounin, now becoming a real Jounin shouldn't take too long.”
”Yes...”
Kakashi was still very depressed.
By this point, Inuzuka Fan and the others had already quieted down, even the ever-youthful Guy was unwittingly feeling the pressure of being around Yeruashi.
On the one hand, Erase looked for sixteen years and seemed much older than them. On the other hand, in Konoha, of course, everyone knew about his exploits.
Konoha's Silver Flash shocked the entire shinobi world!
Despite their rather close acquaintance and class, they instinctively felt a huge barrier separating them.
When Erase quietly talked to my brother about his recent success in the practice and giving advice to Ryton....
Suddenly, Anbu shinobi appeared nearby.
”Elite Jounin Hatake of Erase, Lord Hokage calls you.”
In the past, when the Anbu shinobi addressed him, they only indifferently passed the order, but now the attitude was noticeably different, there was genuine respect and reverence in the voice.
”I get it.”
Erase quietly nodded.
Shinobi Anbu bowed and disappeared, using shunshin.
Erase happily turned to Kakashi and continued to give instruction in Litonjua.
Seeing that Erase continued calmly eating ramen and answer his questions, Kakashi faltered: ”Big brother...Isn't Lord Hokage waiting for you, why aren't you coming?”
”Ah, nothing important, it's worth a good meal first.”
Guy and the others, who were eating ramen nearby, looked at each other, blinking their eyes. If any of them were summoned by the Hokage, they would drop everything, not daring to allow the slightest delay.
Oh, Erase really on a different level, it is impossible to compare with normal people like them!
After a while.
Yeruashi finished his third large bowl of ramen, wiped his mouth with satisfaction, and patted Kakashi's shoulder, ”I don't have any money, pay for it, brother.”
Phew!
A figure of Erase instantly disappeared, leaving Kakashi with a dark face.
...
Hokage's office.
Yeruashi pushed the door open, entered, and addressed Hiruzen, who was sitting at the table, ” Lord Hokage, did you want something?”
”Yes.”
Hiruzen did not care that Yeruashi did not come to him immediately after receiving the order, he took a doc.u.ment from the table and said, ”Our scout noticed a small city-the kingdom of Rouran, located in the middle of the desert. His attention was drawn to the powerful vibrations of the chakra and it was concluded that there may be a great threat...”
”After a thorough investigation, he managed to find out that there is a huge source of energy hidden under Rouran, called the Dragon Vein. The energy of this source is massive and concentrated to such an extent that it is even rumored to bend space and time. Six years ago, a man appeared out of nowhere and began to gradually take control of Rouran, if nothing is done, it can become a big threat....When you came back, I was just thinking about who to entrust this matter to. If you take it upon yourself, I can be completely at ease.”
Listening to the word of Hiruzen, Erase puzzled bowed his head.
Isn't that the plot of The Lost Tower?
If you think about it, the time really matches, in the original, Minato dealt with this, but now the circ.u.mstances are such that Hiruzen's choice fell on him.
”The Dragon Vein ... hmm...”
As he said these words, Yeruashi felt an inexplicable feeling, as if his intuition was telling him to go there.
The Dragon vein has the power to affect space and time, and he has the power of time...perhaps the Dragon Vein will be able to influence the illusory clock!
Coming to this conclusion, Yeruashi instantly made up his mind and slapped his c.h.e.s.t, ” After hearing Lord Hokage's description, I really felt that it could carry a huge threat. This should be dealt with as soon as possible, I will immediately go to Rouran!”
”I have to bother you.”
Hiruzen nodded and gave Erase doc.u.ment.
