Asuma was one of them, so this competitive mood was resolved invisibly by the Fourth Hokage.
The second one is Kakashi who is his contemporary. This makes the young man a little bit dissatisfied. Although he can't beat Kakashi, he just doesn't accept it.
Everyone in the village knew the genius Kakashi but not Asuma Sarutobi. They only knew a young master of the Sarutobi family. What a disparity...
Chapter 141: Orochimaru Fraud Incident
As a rebellious kid with a love-obsessed mind and unusual thinking patterns, it is impossible for me not to feel a little jealous when I see a classmate who is also very popular among female classmates.
Later on, every time he met this genius, the other party's cold and autistic attitude made him particularly annoyed, and he felt that the other party looked down on him faintly.
Well, his feeling was not wrong. Kakashi really looked down on the little brats of the same period.
He is emotional, comes from a good family but is not a genius, and often says things that go against the ninja code...especially the last point, which is what Kakashi hates the most during his autistic period.
Naturally, the relationship between the two will not be very good.
So Asuma wanted to pass by him as if he were a stranger.
At this moment, Kakashi suddenly thought of a way to say hello.
As the old saying goes, if he suddenly greets the other party enthusiastically, it will only arouse Asuma's vigilance. Although the other party is not good enough, he is also a ninja after all, so he decided to change his personality slightly so that they can get to know each other through fighting.
As long as he follows his previous style of doing things, it will be easy to attract hatred. Of course, he can also use a little bit of guiding illusion.
Just imagine how it would feel if the top genius in the class showed even a little contempt, and one would be extremely angry.
So the eye he showed instantly turned into a mocking look in Asuma's eyes.
The deliberate amplification of that contempt made the rebellious boy almost explode with anger. It can be said that Asuma at this time could be compared to his nephew Konohamaru, who had an enlarged temper.
Then that kind of contempt flashed away, and turned into an indifferent expression, which further stimulated the emotions of this rebellious boy. When passing by Kakashi, Asuma took the initiative to call out to him.
"Hey! Kakashi."
The white-haired ninja continued walking forward as if he hadn't heard anything.
This is... a bit too much, he immediately stood in front of Kakashi.
"I heard from my old man that you are quite strong. Do you have time to spar with me?"
"time and location."
It was so cold and unbelievable, very much like the old style. The back teeth of a certain hot-blooded young man were almost broken.
"Three days later in the afternoon, at the third training ground."
"Ah."
Kakashi nodded and walked away in a cold and arrogant manner. Asuma felt humiliated again for having decided to kill the minions out of boredom.
The indignant boy immediately went home and began to practice ninjutsu madly.
That's why he has to set the date for three days later. During these three days he will ask the old man for a very, very powerful ninjutsu.
The Sandaime also knew about this, and after knowing the whole story, he had a headache. Why did Asuma, this troublesome child, take the initiative to provoke Kakashi?
However, it is better to let his child experience some setbacks, so that he will not be rebellious every day and want to send the child to become a monk.
From the description of the onlookers, we know that the Sandaime Kakashi is still the same Kakashi, and Asuma is still the same Asuma. I really don’t know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing.
At night, Kakashi was reading and organizing information.
After returning to Konoha, he briefly collected information about the time when he was not in the village. The information he obtained was that Orochimaru's human experiments were very popular in secret.
Something like, during the Third Ninja World War, many ninjas and ordinary people disappeared because of Orochimaru, and he abducted many bloodline limits for research.
Even the disappearance of the Sandaime Kazekage, which triggered the war, might have been done by this Sannin.
The term "human experiment" sounds evil, and with someone secretly fanning the flames, public opinion immediately fell to an extreme.
From the original successor of Hokage to the criminal of human experiments, the fall was very smooth.
The familiar means and operations made Kakashi feel inexplicably sad.
But the teacher said that there is no need to worry about Orochimaru, as the three ninjas are all very individual ninjas and will not be easily led astray.
Then just continue to take care of yourself, and also think about how to guide Asuma's transformation.
The person involved, Orochimaru, was very calm at this time, and looked like he had expected the sudden evil wind that blew in the village.
He was not at all surprised that Danzo would do such a thing. It was because he did take the first generation cells and a lot of funding from the Shimura family, but he ended up pushing the blame on others. It was a bit hateful.
But Orochimaru also understood that whether he conducted the experiment or not, his reputation in Konoha would not be good.
His beloved teacher has now returned to the position of Hokage, and he cannot become the next one, so he is always a hindrance in the village.
Unless you are willing to be the most obedient dog and do whatever you are told, it will be difficult for you to live a peaceful life in the future.
As for human experiments...now that the war is over, even the prisoners of war in the Sand Village have been released.
How can they conduct experiments? They must capture ninjas from the village for experiments.
He will take the initiative to hand over the handle and take advantage of it whenever he wants. What kind of ninja is that?
So he went to a place where bad guys gathered and denounced Danzo in a very righteous manner, and vented his anger on him, making the other party so angry that his blood pressure almost came out of his head.
Then he set off to prepare for the next storm.
The next step is to leave Konoha and go to the Land of Rain to conduct his own experiments, but leaving too abruptly would not be the best choice in all aspects. I believe Danzo will definitely not let himself down.
Sure enough, the evil wind arose, and the teacher's inaction made Orochimaru cut off the last bit of hope.
Now I just need to wait for the public opinion to reach its climax and then I can leave the village in anger. Everything will be so logical. It will also save me the trouble of Jiraiya, the idiot, asking me the reason.
"This era doesn't belong to the Sannin yet."
However, Orochimaru's three disciples were not affected much by this turmoil.
The Mitarai family intentionally maintains a certain boundary, but Hongdou is a very stubborn child and she won't believe anything anyone says now.
She now claims to be the legitimate successor of Orochimaru and the only disciple who has signed a contract with the holy land Ryuchido.
Of course, she didn't know that Longdidong had made a special mark on this contract scroll, so she would need to be more careful when summoning in the future.
Kabuto is a very smart child, and he has a walking miko to guide him from behind.
I already know the basic style and methods of the root, so I can continue the class with a normal mind.
However, this child does have a high talent in medical ninjutsu, and he also has a good talent for experiments. I really don't want to waste any of his talent. It would be great if he could find a teacher who specializes in medical treatment.
Shisui...
The troubles that the Uchiha family will face are much more serious than his human experiments.
His reputation was only damaged, but a subtle avoidance of the Uchiha had already been established within Konoha.
The future is basically determined, and now he is just teaching the child's strength seriously.
As for thoughts and directions, let's leave them to the monster hiding in the Rain Country. The other party is better at training such people.
When the three disciples gathered, Orochimaru continued his teaching.
He asked this question specifically after class today.
"If one day I have to leave Konoha, would you three be willing to go out with me to study for a while? As for whether you will return to Konoha to see me later."
Hongdou was the first to respond, saying that she would go wherever the teacher went, and as for the people in the family...she didn't care.
Kabuto basically gave the same answer. Before he came, Dean Nono told him that if Lord Orochimaru was willing to leave Konoha on his own initiative, he must follow closely. This would be the best outcome.
Chapter 142: The First Sword Kills Asuma
Shisui thought for a while and said he would discuss it with the clan leader. Because of his special status, the Sandaime might not let the Uchiha leave Konoha.
Orochimaru said he understood and told him that if Shisui was willing to leave, the Sandaime would not stop him as long as the Uchiha clan agreed.
After returning home, Shisui found Fugaku and told him that Orochimaru was preparing to leave the village.
Fugaku nodded and indicated that if you wanted to leave, the clan would not stop you, so it would be good to go out.
"You can tell Lord Orochimaru that the Uchiha can donate some internal resources, including some information."
……
Shisui didn't expect such a reply, then frowned. Is the situation going to continue to deteriorate?
Fugaku felt miserable, and staying in the village might not be a good thing.
The Uchiha clan can't leave now even if they want to. Konoha will not allow them to leave, nor will it allow them to live. Their paths to survival are being cut off one by one.
He had already prepared for the worst, and even ignored the rising rebellion within the clan, letting everything take its course.
Later, after Shisui retreated, he went to look for Itachi.
In the Uchiha training ground.
"Brother Shisui, are you saying that you are going to leave Konoha?"
"Yes."
"I will definitely come back. The village and the Uchiha need me. And I will leave you a gift before I leave."
……
The two talked for a while and then Shisui returned to his room and began to copy the Will of Fire.
This book is extremely profound, even more profound and incisive than what the Hokage said in his speech, and it explains the essence of many things.
This added a lot of confusion to him, because sometimes the behavior of the villagers was different from what was described in the book.
It seemed that the Will of Fire in reality was very different from the Will of Fire he had imagined.
Orochimaru said that he would find an expert who truly understands this field to answer his questions during further training, and Shisui expressed his anticipation for this.
Perhaps the answer to saving Uchiha lies in finding it here.
As for why he copied this book, it was of course to leave it to his most promising younger brother in the clan.
After that, there were undercurrents in the village every day. Uchiha, Orochimaru, the vague rumors about the demon fox, and the information that the war was about to come made the people in the village feel anxious.
But for a certain hot-blooded rebellious teenager, all this had nothing to do with his duel. Three days later, Asuma showed up at training ground No. 3 on time, waiting for the appearance of his white-haired enemy.
What he waited for was a short blade that had already pierced the back of his head.
"You lose Asuma."
When did it appear!He didn't notice it at all.
The young man was very angry about this sneak attack, saying that this was not the tactic to be used in a duel at all.
He didn't approve of a duel that ended without even signing the Seal of Opposition and the Seal of Reconciliation.
Kakashi readily put away his short blade and said calmly.
"I'm sorry, I thought you were abandoned in the ninja school after you went to the battlefield...ah, it's okay. It's good for you to be like this, after all, the Sandaime..."
The most annoying thing is to say half and keep the other half. Are you mocking me for still being a ninja school student?
Asuma began to make hand seals frantically. He wanted to teach this white-haired man a lesson, but then the dagger was pressed against his throat again.
"It's just a transformation technique plus a clone technique. The one that just left was just my clone. He was not alert enough."
……
Asuma began to feel fortunate that he did not call the Red Goddess over to show off his masculinity, which was really too embarrassing.
"We weren't serious just now. Let's have a serious fight this time."
"can."
He quickly put away his knife and waited for the opponent's preparation.
Before Kakashi came, he had already thought about how to establish a connection with Asuma, which was to leave an indelible impression on the other party.
For example... a battle that was extremely brutal.
Asuma finally began to explode in anger. His strength was not weak among his peers.
With the resources of the Sarutobi clan behind him, from combat experience to ninjutsu skills, he has no shortage of anything. Even if he were to fight against the original Kakashi, he could still win a few rounds before being defeated.
