Konoha big guy

11 Shadow Guard

Konoha Maru's episode was quickly ignored by the two of them.

Although Hiruzaru Sarutobi is willing to guide Tintin, it does not mean that Tintin is Hokage's apprentice.

Sarutobi Hiruza didn't elaborate on the distance between them, he believed that even if Tintin didn't know, Ding Zuo and Lu Jiu would have this tacit understanding.

And Ding Ding also took advantage of this opportunity to ask Hiruzaru Sarutobi to skip a level.

The quarrel with Ding Zuo last night was not fruitless, at least he knew that all applications for early graduation from Ninja School had to be approved by the principal of Ninja School who was concurrently serving as Hiruzaru Sarutobi.

"I can't promise you this." Hiruza Sarutobi refused without hesitation, and said earnestly, "I know that you are far more mature than your peers and have your own considerations for the future. But, Tintin, everyone's childhood It's only once, I don't want you to lose some of the wonderful things you should have enjoyed because you started your ninja career too early."

Tintin was stunned when he heard Sarutobi Hiruzen's words.

Have I really traveled to the world of Naruto?Shouldn't this be a world with the theme of war and orphans?Isn't a child at a certain age going to the battlefield... Wait!
Ding Ding frowned and thought for a while: "Is it because of the Ninja World War?"

The ninja world is indeed cruel, and it is indeed common for children to go to the battlefield, but Konoha is different.

One of the reasons for its establishment of the village is to avoid the tragedy of children having to fight desperately.This is written into history textbooks and praised by thousands of people. It is a glory and a bondage.It is even said that in the entire ninja world, Konoha has the lowest tolerance for such tragedies.

However, during the third Ninja World War, Konoha, who had not recovered from World War II, once again faced the dilemma of being besieged from three sides. Konoha was forced to lower the graduation standard of the ninja school and sent a large number of young ninjas to the battlefield. .

So after the war, vindictive concern for children erupted in Konoha.Especially the generation of Twelve Xiaoqiang's parents.They were the main force of young people during World War III and witnessed a lot of sacrifices. After having children, they almost unanimously chose to let their children graduate at the maximum age limit.

At the same time, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who signed the order to lower the graduation standard, has not approved an application for skipping grades since the end of the war.Even geniuses like Neji and Sasuke have honestly stayed in school for six years.

Hiruzaru Sarutobi couldn't help showing a look of surprise, even if this answer was not thought out by Tintin himself, it is very remarkable that he can understand the meaning of it at such a young age.And according to his understanding of Ding Zuo, he doesn't seem like someone who would say such things to children...

Ding Ding is very worried, the public opinion in the general environment is like this, even if he said that the sky is full of hype, it is impossible to agree to his request.

His learning ability is far superior to that of his peers, and it is too wasteful to stay in school for six years. It is better to drop out of school and go home for family education.But... Sarutobi Hiruzen's words really moved him, and he was not willing to give up his hard-won campus life just like that.

After thinking for a while, Ding Ding said directly: "Grandpa Hokage, do you think I can skip class and skip class?"

"You want to go to the senior class in advance?" Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately guessed what Tintin was thinking.

Ding Ding nodded. Hokage's request is that no one graduates early, and he can use part of his general knowledge class to attend senior ninjutsu classes.As for what to do when you are in senior year?It’s okay to ask a relationship to do an internship, find a master with online skills to learn skills, anyway, you can register as a ninja at the age of 12 after graduating from ninja school.

"You have a way," Hiruzaru Sarutobi smiled, "I asked Iruka to give you the class schedule for the whole grade, but if a teacher comes to me and expresses that you have affected the normal class order..."

"I'll just go to class honestly." In Ding Ding's view, Sarutobi Hiruzen's request was almost equivalent to saying nothing.After all, he is the principal and the village head, and unless the trouble gets to the point where he has to be expelled, it is impossible for a teacher to come to him and complain.

"Very good." Hiruzaru Sarutobi nodded.

Seeing Ding Ding's clean foundation, pure heart, and even his astounding genius, Hiruza Sarutobi suddenly said: "Don't completely neglect physical skills, if you can pass my test when you graduate, I can consider it Make an exception and let you directly join the Shadow Guard."

Ding Ding's expression froze suddenly: "What did you say...?"

The Shadow Guard is not Anbu, but the guards and absolute confidantes who are always by Hokage's side.Generally speaking, the shadow guards are played by Anbu elites or elite jnin who are valued by shadows.

"Oh? You actually know?" Hiruzaru Sarutobi showed a surprised expression.

"I've read the records about the first Five Kages Conference in history books." Ding Ding explained immediately.

"The situation now is not the same as it was then, and the positioning of the Shadow Guard is also completely different."

According to tradition, a certain member of the shadow guard will become the next shadow, and the guards of each shadow in the first Five Kages Conference later became the shadow of each village.

However, Hiruzaru Sarutobi is quite special here. He took over after the death of the fourth generation, and after taking office, he looked for enemies, compensated the deceased, guarded against Uchiha, rebuilt Konoha, assassinated Danzo, declared war in Yunyin Village, and friction on the border of Yanyin Village. , Orochimaru’s defection, the Yunyin peace agreement, the comfort of the Hyuga family, the Uchiha’s rebellion... Big and small things happened one after another. There was no time to select and train the shadow guards, so I just picked a few from Anbu.

There is not even much difference between the attire and Anbu, just a layer of robes.Not only does it have no sense of existence, it also looks very salty.

By the way, they also appeared in the comics of Ding Ding's previous life, that is, the battle on the roof of the Zhongnin exam, the one who hit Si Ziyan and was burned to death and the one who explained outside.Yes, they are not ordinary Anbu, they are Shadow Guards.

"I'm old," Hiruzaru Sarutobi looked at the age spots on his hands, and said, "After I retire, the new Hokage will form his own team. At that time, do you want to continue to change jobs and go to Anbe, or go to Anbe?" Your enchantment class is fine."

Of course, there is one more possibility that Hiruza Sarutobi did not mention.It will be at least six years before Ding Ding graduates, and by that time he may not still be in Hokage's position.

After hearing this, Ding Ding couldn't help but his eyes lit up: "Don't think about it, I agree!"

Whether it is the enchantment class or the intelligence class, the minimum requirements of these departments are all zhongnin.

That is to say, after Ding Ding graduated from the ninja school, he needs to follow the procedure to be a ninja for at least half a year. If he meets unreliable teammates, he may be eliminated in the ninja exam.

In contrast, the main job of the Naruto guards is to stay by Hokage's side, and occasionally run errands for Hokage, but most of the time Anbu does it for him.Isn't this easier than going to the present to ninja chase cats and dogs?

Based on this alone, Tintin will let Hiruzaru Sarutobi live a few more years!

"Go back and ask your father," Sarutobi Hiruza said calmly, "And don't blame me for not reminding you, the test at that time will be very strict."

He also has his own considerations.

After all, with Ding Ding's exaggerated physique and perverted talent, it is not surprising that Hiruza Sarutobi, whose strength has reached the level of a jonin and even an elite jonin, has made him study hard for six years.

At that point, letting him find a mentor and join a three-person team like ordinary graduates would be detrimental to the growth of him and the team.

It's better to stay by your side and let Anbu and the guards train him.

…………

After leaving Hokage Mansion, Ding Ding was still in a daze, Shadow Guard!

Although he is only a guard, his status and income are definitely among the top ranks. He even had a chance to be among them at the age of 12...

Then Ding Ding thought about it again.

After all, it is a world where extraordinary power exists. Ninja is different from any profession he knew in his previous life. Ability, or strength has a much greater impact on status than he knows.

Then maybe, he can indulge a little in the future?
But at this moment, Ding Ding's face suddenly changed drastically.

He continued walking cautiously, with only one pair of eyes, he glanced around indiscriminately for a few times, but found nothing, and finally hurried back to the ninja school.

Just behind Ding Ding, in the shadows of the roofs of the houses, there are many unremarkable black-clothed ninjas, with white animal masks one after another, looking at Ding Ding's back.

Until a ninja wearing a robe and a mask suddenly appeared in an instant: "Master Naruto is calling."

The ninjas in black just disappeared...
