Roll back from Naruto

Aragaki entered the Hokage Building and was not stopped by the guarding ninjas along the way. Otherwise, if he wanted to enter the Hokage Building to meet the Hokage, he not only had to have a sufficient identity level, but also needed to undergo a series of identity registration verifications.

After all, he is still the shadow of a village. In theory, the person with the highest military force in a country cannot be easily seen by anyone.

Aragaki knocked on the door three times until a deep and powerful response came from inside the door.

"Enter."

He just turned the door handle and entered.

The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, is in his prime, at the peak of his strength, and has not even reached its peak. He is known as the "Professor of the Ninja World" and is proficient in all five attribute escape techniques in Konoha.

And Aragaki also has reason to believe that the current Sarutobi Hiruzen is the most powerful man on the surface of the ninja continent.At least that's what the people of Konoha think.

After all, people in Konoha say that fire is the strongest among the Five Kage, and the three generations of Hokage are the strongest among all the generations. This is said by the unborn Iruka Umino. It is none of my business. Please save your life.

But no matter how you think about it, the man in front of you can be regarded as the ceiling of combat power in this era.

After all, the Uchiha dancer who was still hiding underground was still lingering.

The third generation in his prime does have a special personality charm. He is powerful, physically strong, and has a strong aura, but at the same time he does not give people a domineering feeling.

On the contrary, you can read generosity and kindness from his slightly majestic expression.But it's hard to imagine why he would become the most controversial Hokage a few decades later.

Maybe it can only be attributed to time and war, which will eventually change a person, even for such a majestic figure like the current three generations.

"Genin Aragaki of Class [-], are your injuries better?"

Having said that, Sandai's originally serious face revealed a friendly smile.

It has to be said that why the third generation can become the longest-serving Hokage in history, he naturally has the love of the vast majority of villagers and the support of ninjas.

"Thank you, Hokage-sama, for your concern. I'm much better now." Aragaki stood with his hands down.

"Well, that's good. Konoha cannot do without you young people, whether it is now or in the future, so we must take care of ourselves to preserve ourselves and protect more of our companions."

The fact that the third generation can say this means that he should know Aragaki's situation very well.

As the most powerful person in a village, he is in charge of tens of thousands of people. To be able to do this, an ordinary ninja would have shed tears of gratitude.

Aragaki nodded in agreement, but he acted calmly.

However, Sandai did not pay attention and continued: "You did a good job this time, defeating the powerful enemy and holding on until the end.

Although we have also lost many companions, you have to believe that it is all worth it, because peace can only be purchased through war, so what do you think?"

Aragaki understands the meaning of the third generation. Now the third generation is nothing more than affirming the dedication and contribution of their ninth class to the village, and then strengthening his psychological construction. Of course, he is also examining and evaluating his post-war psychological state.

Perhaps it's because Aragaki's indifference of "sorrows and joys are not shown in color" that the third generation is more concerned about.

"I understand, Hokage-sama. I will avenge my dead companions." This was Aragaki's answer, which also showed his determination to continue fighting for Konoha's companions.

Obviously Aragaki's answer did not surprise the third generation.

"Well, hatred can be a good medicine, which can always spur us to move forward. But sometimes, we also need to remember not to be blinded by hatred."

The third generation did not blindly encourage Aragaki to seek revenge. On the contrary, he always stood in Konoha's perspective and reminded Aragaki of the fundamentals of being a Konoha ninja, which is to protect rather than simply kill.

Perhaps the nature of the third generation is to be generous and kind. Of course, this is also the quality of a strong man at the top of the ninja world.

However, after some questions and answers, Aragaki still didn't believe that the Third Hokage summoned him just for these "trivial matters".

Immediately afterwards, Sandai seemed to have seen through his inner doubts, and then said:

"Genin Aragaki Tsugumi, in view of your outstanding performance in two battles and multiple battles, and jointly recommended by more than three jounin, after our study and decision, we will make an exception and promote you to chuunin.

So if you have any opinions, you can raise them now. "

Sure enough, Aragaki's guess was correct, but being able to "break the rules", that is, to be promoted to chunin without passing the chunin exam, was beyond his expectation.

But how could Aragaki dare to have any objections? Being promoted to chuunin would mean that he could receive chunin-level allowances, just like being promoted to military rank, and the treatment he would receive would also be greatly improved.

Of course, we must also assume more important responsibilities.

"No objection, I am willing to accept the village's arrangement." He replied immediately.

"Very good, then you are a chuunin today. Congratulations to you Aragaki."

Immediately afterwards, the assistant who had been standing next to Hokage had a low presence and handed a series of documents such as Chuunin forehead protectors, uniforms and identification documents that had been prepared to him.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to give you this thing. Only with this can you go to the forging department to recast your weapon."

Then the assistant took the document from the third generation and handed it over to Aragaki again.

Aragaki naturally nodded his thanks again, but he couldn't help complaining despite his worries. The target of his complaints, Dr. Uzumaki, always spoke incompletely.

If Sandai hadn't summoned him first, he would have gone to the foundry department without this approval and would have had no choice but to come back in despair.

Fortunately, the current third generation is young enough to remember such trivial matters. He is indeed worthy of being a professor in the ninja world.

After that, Aragaki resigned and left the Hokage's office building. All in all, it was a pleasant meeting, and it was also Aragaki's first official contact with Konoha's top management.

However, not long after Aragaki left, in the Hokage's office, the assistant released the transformation technique, and it turned out to be someone else.

The third generation did not turn around, and continued to process the documents on the desktop in his hands, but he said: "What do you think of this child? Is it as good a talent as Tsunade said?"

"Well, he is actually suitable to come to my place." The man replied.

"Do you want to accept him as a disciple?" Sandai asked.

"It's not a bad idea." He thought for a few seconds.

"Forget it. If you want someone, just ask Tsunade for it. I can't make the decision." Sandai said with a smile.

Then the man fell silent.
