Konoha: Start by unlocking the caged bird!

Facing this famous Sannin, Hyuga Yuzuru couldn't say that he had no fluctuations in his heart, but he was not afraid of anything.

Now that the two of them were on the road, Orochimaru didn't dare to do anything to him even if he was crazy.

But thinking that it was almost the time for Orochimaru to run away, Hinata Yuzuru was still vigilant, lest the man in front of him suddenly come up with any strange ideas before running away.

"Hinata, Yuzuru." Orochimaru's voice was hoarse, and he said slowly with a self-righteous emotion in his words: "The youngest ANBU ninja in history..."

He started the conversation with words that sounded like admiration or emotion.

But Hinata Yuzuru just smiled and pushed up his glasses: "Orochimaru-sama, good morning."

Even though it was just their first meeting, it was clear that they knew each other well.

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes, his beast-like eyes flashing with deep interest: "Ah, you're welcome."

"Now, if you're not busy, how about we chat together?" He suggested.

Hinata Yuzuru shook his head regretfully: "Sorry, the Sandaime wants to summon me now."

"Oh... let's do it next time." Orochimaru looked quite regretful, but after nodding to Yuzuru and him to say goodbye, he couldn't help but stick out his tongue.

He squinted his eyes with a smile and thought thoughtfully: It seems that the rumors are true.

After many years of walking in the ninja world, Orochimaru has already developed excellent eyesight. For him, he can make a preliminary judgment on a person with just one look and a few words of conversation.

Although it may be a bit mysterious to say this, Orochimaru has no doubts about his judgment - the boy in front of him, even though he looks extremely immature, is completely different from other brats.

Calm and confident.

How interesting...

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes, many bold ideas flashed in his mind, but in the end he suppressed them because the time had not come yet.

Now that he has embarked on the road to becoming a ninja, he is destined to not be able to hide in Konoha Village for the rest of his life.

In the future, there will be opportunities to meet.

Until then, try to have some fun with this little guy.

Orochimaru stepped forward and ran away from Hinata Yuzuru.

Hinata Yuzuru looked back quietly at the end of the street. Orochimaru's figure had long disappeared. He had a hunch that Orochimaru and he did not meet by chance. He might even know that he was going to find the Hokage, so he appeared on the route. We waited for a 'chance encounter'.

What's the purpose?

Just meet yourself?

Hinata Yuzuru couldn't guess, but she wasn't overly worried, but somehow she seemed to feel something - she always felt that there would be a chance to meet each other soon.

Quickening his pace, Hinata Yuzuru soon appeared in front of the Hokage Building.

This was his first time stepping into the building in person.

The Anbu or ninjas on guard around him were all quite familiar with this handsome young man with a pair of white eyes. They did not make things difficult for him. On the contrary, those who could say hello spoke to him once or twice. Wherever he went, they all Is greeted with a smile.

During the reconstruction work in the past few days, Hinata Yuzuru's active figure left a more or less impression on them all. No matter who it was, they couldn't help but love this little guy from the bottom of their hearts when they saw it.

Who would hate a hardworking, gentle, kind genius?

Especially when he wears glasses and looks weak, but can do things that many adult ninjas can't do, it is even more admirable.

Hinata Yuzuru soon arrived at the door of the Hokage's office. He calmly adjusted his white robe and knocked on the door.

"Three generations of adults."

The gentle voice of Hiruzen Sarutobi soon came from inside: "Is it Yuzuru-chan? Come in."

Hinata Yuzuru then pushed open the door and entered.

Sarutobi Hiruzen sat behind a long desk, wearing a bamboo hat and holding a pipe in his mouth, looking at the young man in front of him without trace.

The long black hair is scattered on the back of the head, and the long hair on the forehead falls casually on the edge of the frame. A pair of white eyes look very docile behind the lenses. The childish face does not show the innocence, maturity, stability and grace that people of the same age should have. , with a respectful face at this time, more like a... noble than a child.

For some reason, Sarutobi Hiruzen thought of this adjective that was not suitable for a ninja at all.

Even though the Hyuga clan has strict family traditions and a long history, people like Hyuga Yuzuru are still rare, let alone coming from a separate family.

"Good morning, Third Generation Sir. It's our first time meeting you. Please give me your advice in the future." Hinata Yuzuru bowed slightly, showing respect and smiling cordially.

"Sure enough, a hero comes from a boy. Even the fourth generation looks far inferior to you at your age." The third generation gave a very high evaluation and even compared him with Namikaze Minato.

There is no other reason, just because there are some vague overlaps in the feelings of the two to the third generation. It may be that there is a heart-warming power in the smiles.

Thinking of the fourth generation, the third generation sighed quietly. After cheering up, he smiled and said, "Don't be rigid, just relax. Today is just a chat between the elders and the younger generations."

"Yes, the Third Generation." Hinata Yuzuru stood up straight, but in front of the desk, he could only show his head. It seemed quite funny that he was so big.

For the first time, Sandai felt hesitant - was it the right thing to bring this little guy into the ANBU so early?

But soon, he abandoned these useless thoughts and said kindly: "You performed very well in the reconstruction work some time ago. Let's talk about it. Is there any reward you want?"

This was Sarutobi Hiruzen's sudden move, and it was also Hinata Yuzuru's good sense that made him feel rewarded.

Hinata Yuzuru's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously thought of the Sealed Book, but he quickly suppressed his emotions, and just said softly: "Hokage-sama, help the villagers, help the village rebuild, this is my duty, no need to Commendation.”

"Okay!" Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but smile and nodded.

He pondered for a moment, then got to the point, and picked up a forehead protector that he had prepared on the table: "Even though you may have known it before, I still want to ask you now."

"Hyuga Yuzuru, are you really ready to become a ninja?" Sarutobi Hiruzen said softly.

Just when Hinata Yuzuru wanted to reply, Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly interrupted: "Yuzuru, don't give an answer easily. Becoming a ninja means more than just a change in identity."

Hyuga Yuzuru pretended to be silent. After a moment, he raised his head and showed a bright smile: "Sandaime-sama, I am ready to give everything for this."

"......congratulations."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes were complicated. He never thought that he would one day put a forehead protector on a five-year-old child and send him to ANBU.

He knelt down and picked up the forehead protector with his own hands. He hesitated for a moment and did not take off the hairband on his head. Instead, he directly put the forehead protector on top of his headband and tied it tightly.

"From today on, you are a genin of Konoha. In addition, your destination has been decided."

Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up, turned his head to face outside the room, and said loudly: "Kakashi."

When Hinata Yuzuru couldn't help but smile and turned around to look.

Kakashi Hatake, who was wearing a mask and couldn't show his emotions, with only a dead fish eye that seemed to be staring into the void, pushed open the door and entered.

After Kakashi entered the door, he subconsciously glanced at Hinata Yuzuru, who was 'laughing wildly' and looking at him.

Although this kid seemed to be just smiling, Kakashi always felt that this guy might be smiling even more exaggeratedly than the guys from the Uchiha clan.

I felt really helpless in my heart, lamenting: Is this really a bad fate?

He had obviously done everything, but it really didn't work out. His plan to change his job in another department before graduation was now entangled with this little devil.

The third generation of adults, he is still just a child! Isn't it a joke for a child of this age to join ANBU? ?

But Hatake Kakashi knew that there was nothing he could do about this matter, so he could only quietly nod to the third generation and wait for instructions.

"From today on, Hatake Kakashi will be in charge of your work in the ANBU. With him taking care of you, I believe you will integrate quickly."

"Maybe you don't know much about the work of ANBU, Kakashi. It's up to you to teach him these."

"Today, your task is to let Yuzuru Hinata understand and understand the work and discipline of ANBU. Starting tomorrow, he will join your team, and three days later, he will perform the mission with you."

The current status of Kakashi Hatake in the ANBU is not high. Although his status and abilities are valued by the Third Generation and Danzo, in fact, his magnificent ANBU career has only just begun.

In fact, letting Yuzuru join ANBU is not only for Yuzuru, but also for Kakashi.

Kakashi has been depressed since Lin's death. His life has been intermittently ruined. When performing tasks, he kills people as if they were drinking water. He was even called a "companion killer" by his ANBU companions because he was too harsh and quick when killing the rebel ninja of Konoha. '.

Even if the fourth generation deliberately made him become Kushina's guard and tried to influence him with the birth of a new life, he didn't know how effective this idea was now.

The third generation believes that the sunshine and gentleness shown by Yuzuru Hinata will definitely influence Kakashi Hatake, allowing him to let go of the past and look forward positively.

The two supervise each other, and the age gap is also very suitable. No matter how you think about it, there is no one more suitable to be with Hinata Yuzuru than Kakashi.

Hatake Kakashi frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about something, and glanced at Hinata Yuzuru: "Isn't it inappropriate?"

"Don't worry." Sandai seemed to have made up his mind and said softly, "There will be no danger."

What Kakashi asked was about the mission three days later - to escort the third generation to the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Fire to officially re-assume the position of Hokage.

Hokage's appointment is not something that the village can decide on its own, or in other words, even if it is decided, it still needs to go to the Daiming Mansion of the Land of Fire for a formality.

Kakashi was silent for a moment, looked at the third generation with complicated eyes, and nodded silently: "I understand."

"Then it's settled." The third generation looked at Hinata Yuzuru with a smile and said softly: "Kakashi is an extremely outstanding ninja. By following him, you will definitely learn a lot."

"Yes." Hinata Yuzuru smiled and nodded in agreement.

The two of them left the Hokage's office together.

After walking out of the Hokage Building, Hatake Kakashi turned to look at Hinata Yuzuru with complex eyes, and simply said: "You, the Hyuga clan, should also know the ANBU rules. Apart from that, there is only one thing I need to explain to you in advance. "

"When performing a mission, if you feel that nothing can be done, make your own safety... your priority."

After Hatake Kakashi finished speaking, he looked at Hinata Yuzuru with a gentle smile: "Is Kakashi-senpai really gentle, or is he confident that he can complete the task without me?"

Hatake Kakashi didn't want to speak, put his cold hands in his pockets and walked forward.

"The Third Generation has agreed that we should get to know each other well today."

Hinata Yuzuru spoke calmly behind him.

Hatake Kakashi looked back with dead eyes, this little guy seemed really idle.

"Finally, I'll give you a piece of advice..."

A terrifying murderous intention suddenly rose from his body, and he stared at Hinata Yuzuru with cold dead fish eyes, and his voice was deep and cold: "Since you have embarked on the path of ninja, be prepared to die at any time! "

But Hinata Yuzuru just stood there, blinking.

"Senior Kai, do you think so too?"
