Konoha's New Third Hokage

What came over was a little boy with a childish face. He looked younger than Hatake Sakumo, at most five or six years old. His expression was very cold. Although he had a cute appearance, he felt inhumane.Hatake Sakumo felt that this person was not easy to deal with, but since he came here, he should be someone who studied in the same field as him. He stepped forward and said politely: "I am Hatake Sakumo, and you should also be studying under Fengmori-sama. Let's learn." The boy nodded slightly, staring at Hatake Sakumo with his slightly narrowed eyes, and said expressionlessly: "You are Hatake Sakumo. I know that you changed your identity from a samurai to a ninja. Can get high praise from the teachers in the school." Although this person didn't look so easy to get along with, his words were very gentle. Hatake Sakumo breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want to cause some unpleasantness with his classmates, and said with a smile: "No, it's just." Before he finished speaking, the boy said, "But don't think that you can feel proud. Ninjas are not as easy as you think." Hatake Sakumo couldn't help but be startled. Unexpectedly, The other party suddenly changed his attitude, which caught him off guard. However, he quickly replied with a smile: "I didn't mean that. I still have a lot to learn about how to become an excellent ninja." Hum, I hope so." After the other party said this, he reported his name: "My name is Hattori Heizo, please give me more advice in the future." When Hatake Sakumo heard this name, he immediately thought of asking his father for information. Background of the Konoha Family The Hattori family is one of the ninja clans that joined the Konoha Ninja Village in the early days of its establishment. Among the many ninja clans, they belong to a relatively small group. The reason is very simple, because they have always adhered to the ancient tradition of.At first, the tasks performed by ninjas were usually assassinations. If it was not necessary, they would never appear in front of everyone. In the late Warring States period, the conflicts between ninja families intensified. Originally, only one person was hired to deal with others. Later, The entire family was hired by the local nobles, and in order to deal with the ninja family, the local nobles on the other side had to hire a ninja family of the same size.From this time on, battles between ninja families became the norm. While maintaining the secretive actions of ninjas, they began to put on armor, pick up samurai swords, and engage in head-on duels with their enemies.But the Hattori family is different. The ninjas they trained only accept assassination tasks and do not confront any ninja family. In order to ensure the success rate of assassinations, the training of family members starts from an early age. Rigorous training results in The mortality rate is very high. Therefore, even if the Hattori family, like other ninja families, allows adult men to marry multiple women and produce children, very few people will survive.But for this reason, the ninjas from the Hattori family are all assassins selected from a thousand, which are very rare in the atmosphere of the late Warring States Period. Perhaps their frontal combat effectiveness is not as good as those who started large-scale battles and changed the traditional combat methods to a certain extent. ninja family, but their assassination level is even higher than them.However, the Hattori family also had to change their lifestyle in the face of the new era, so they joined the Konoha Ninja Village and began to live openly and openly in the village. However, their internal training did not stop, and their assassination level was still top-notch.During the First Ninja War, ninjas from the Hattori family assassinated important leaders of the enemy samurai legions or some enemy commanders on the ninja battlefield more than once, with remarkable achievements.However, the losses were equally heavy. The abdominal family, which was already sparse in number, is said to have less than five family members left.Hattori Heizo also studied in a ninja school, but because he was in a different class, Hatake Sakumo had never met him. However, he heard that Hattori Heizo practiced with others, and the winner was often determined in a breath. , just like the tradition of the Hattori family, if you cannot assassinate the target in a short time, you will be surrounded and die, so you must develop quick and ruthless skills.It is said that Hattori Heizo was in the ninja school hoping to hone his head-on confrontation ability on the basis of preserving his family's traditions. His elders fought in the ninja world because they were not good at head-on confrontation. Once exposed, they would be killed. .However, it seems that no one in his class can support their traditional methods, and a head-on confrontation has never been discussed.When he realized this, Hatake Sakumo suddenly had a creepy feeling, because he recalled the positions of the two parties just now. If Hattori Heizo was hostile, even if he knew it, would he be able to avoid his sudden attack? , the result is uncertain.As expected, those who can be chosen as Master Fengsen's students are not simple people.Hatake Sakumo sighed in his heart and said with a smile: "Please give me more advice." Hattori Heizo seemed to be not used to it. The Hattori family belongs to a very traditional ninja family. Being cautious in words and deeds is their normal style, and Because of this, they are more stubborn in some places and cannot stand unconventional things. For example, Hatake Sakumo, who was transferred from a samurai family, finds it unpleasant. "The other person hasn't come yet. Do you know who it will be?" Hattori Heizo asked. "I don't know, the teacher at school didn't tell me, where are you?" Hatake Sakumo replied. "No." Hattori Heizo shook his head, "But if one of you is you, then the other person shouldn't be too far behind in terms of strength. After all, we still have important responsibilities." "It's the Chunin Exam, right? , Hokage-sama plans to have five ninja villages jointly organize it, and we seem to be trained as candidates to appear." Hatake Saku said. "Well, so after we stayed in school for more than a year, we were directly graduated and sent to the door of a big shot like Lord Fengsen. According to the school's scheduled system, even if we have corresponding strength, we have to complete cultural courses in school Graduation later, it is said that this was also proposed by Fengmori-sama, in my opinion it is not necessary, what is the use of learning that kind of thing." Hattori Heizo said. "Really?" Hatake Sakumo refused to comment. In the ninja school, civilians first learn to read, and those who are already literate learn literary knowledge. There is a lot of content in it, from the history of the country to the samurai. It involves the origin of ninjas, folk culture, etc. In his opinion, these contents are quite interesting. Of course, most people like Hattori Heizo think it is meaningless. However, under the promotion of the school, these contents are quite interesting. It is necessary to learn.The two of them were waiting in the training ground. Hatake Sakumo wanted to talk more, but Hattori Heizo was not that talkative. Except for some things that he felt or needed, he kept silent at other times. Speaking, Hatake Sakumo tried to guide the topic, but soon there was nothing to say.When the atmosphere between the two parties was a little awkward, the third person finally came. It was a little girl with blond hair. Although she was wearing ninja clothes that were easy to move around, judging from the use of fabrics, she must have been from a relatively older age. The ninja family, at least Hattori Heizo's own family, does not have this level. "Ah, you two are Hatake Sakumo and Hattori Heizo, outstanding talents selected by Fengsen." The blonde girl said their names at once, and Hatake Sakumo and Hattori Heizo looked at each other. This proves that she can get information from some source, knowing that they themselves don't know who their fellow disciples are.More importantly, the other party directly called Fengmori Masaki as Fengmori, "Yes, I am Hatake Sakumo, and he is Hattori Heizo." Hatake Sakumo introduced each other. "I'm Tsunade, please give me some advice." Tsunade gently put her hands on her waist and said calmly. "Please give me some advice." Hatake Sakumo felt a little happy. There was a strong contrast between the cheerful Tsunade and Hattori Heizo's boring gourd. Therefore, he still had a good impression of Tsunade. "Really? You are the princess of the Senju family." Hearing this, Hattori Heizo showed a hint of surprise. "The Senju family is the one who established the Konoha ninja village." Hatake Sakumo heard this and glanced at Tsunade in surprise. He knew the Senju family, but he didn't know the details of the Senju family, and only Hattori The family that had joined the Konoha Ninja Village from the very beginning knew who the direct granddaughter of the First Hokage was. "Well, my grandfather is the First Hokage Senju Hashirama." Tsunade put her hands behind her back and smiled, "But don't feel nervous, we will be companions from now on, just be more natural." Having said that, with Senju It would always be stressful for the princesses of the Senju family to study in the same place. Hatake Sakumo and Hattori Heizo looked at each other again and felt that it would be a little hard in the future. However, even the princesses of the Senju family would come to study. Instead, In short, Masaki Fengmori's abilities are outstanding, and he is trusted by the Second Hokage.Therefore, the three big figures who will be known in the ninja world from now on meet at this moment, and now they are just children who know nothing about each other, preparing for their upcoming careers in the same sect, communicating with each other, and deepening each other's impressions.
