Chapter 10 The Will of Fire

At the strong request of the Third Hokage, Shinko told him all his understanding of chakra. Then, Shinko found that the old man in front of him, who originally seemed a little old, now looked very excited.

"Uh... is there some misunderstanding here?" Zhen Cod finally realized that something was wrong, but he really didn't know where he went wrong.

"It can't be said to be a misunderstanding... I can only say that it is completely wrong."

"Ah this..." Zhen Cod was confused.

After a long period of calming down, Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression finally eased. He finally recalled the peculiarity of the boy in front of him, but this made him fall into deeper doubts. He was very curious about who was training with Shinji. Even if the person was wild, he would not be so wild as to think that chakra was innate...

"Wait..." Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly thought of a possibility, a possibility that caused Shinko to make such a serious common sense mistake, "Shinko, do you know a technique that can use chakra to condense into a solid around the body for defense and attack?"

"Hey? Brother... can you use ninjutsu?" Izumi's eyes were full of confusion. She had always thought that her brother was just an ordinary businessman.

"Probably not a ninjutsu..." Shin Cod thought about it. He really didn't know whether Mangekyō Technique like Susanoo could be considered a ninjutsu. But it didn't matter. In the end, he decided to follow the Third Hokage's thinking and see how the other party could explain his pure cheating behavior.

After activating the experience card and the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan in succession in a flash, a blue translucent skeleton appeared around Shincod, making Izuna's eyes pop with stars.

"Amazing!"

"It's still very useful in daily life, just like this." Shincod stretched out the arm of the Susanoo skeleton, grabbed a bucket not far away and immediately lifted it to the other side. Then he retracted the skeleton and held a ball of blue gaseous energy in his hand.

"The blue chakra I'm talking about is this." About three seconds later, Zhen Cod turned off the 'plug-in mode'.

As for the Third Hokage, he had already lit his cigarette, and his whole old face looked frozen.

After a long while, he finally organized his words, "...Zhen Cod, do you know the name of this technique?"

"I usually call it a skeleton... Does it actually have a name?" Although he knew that this was Susanoo, he did not intend to let the Third Generation know that he knew Susanoo.

"..." The completely undisguised Sharingan in Shincod's eyes just now gave the Third Hokage a great shock. He knew very well what this Sharingan with a special pattern meant, and the sense of déjà vu of the skeleton just now was too strong.

"The name of this technique is Susanoo. Even I don't know much about the details. I just remember that when Uchiha Madara was still alive, this technique was called 'Anyone who has seen it once with their own eyes will inevitably die'. As for the blue chakra you just used... didn't you notice that it is the same thing as Susanoo's... 'skeleton'?"

"Aren't they the same things? Aren't they all chakra?" Shinji was stunned. In fact, when he used Uchiha Madara's skills, he didn't need to recite the names of the moves in his mind. Instead, there seemed to be a voice telling him how to use them if he wanted to achieve something. For example, when he planned to make a skeleton arm to help himself grab things, Susanoo would be used subconsciously by him.

"Did I really take out Susanoo as ordinary chakra? But in the anime, doesn't the chakra glow blue when it explodes? It's not exclusive to Susanoo."

"Of course they are all chakras! But can they be ordinary chakras? Chakras that can change color, state or form are collectively called chakra 'form changes'. This is an advanced application of chakras. Ordinary chakras can neither be seen nor touched, unless you have some kind of eye technique or bloodline limit. But you, really, should have this thing. No... it should be said that you have a more advanced ability than the conventional form change." Then, Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression became serious.

"Zhen Cod, please answer my next question seriously. Just treat it as... a request from an old man who is about to die."

"This... I think it should be no problem for the Third Hokage to live another ten or even twenty years."

Normally, the Third Hokage died in the Konoha collapse plan 12 years later when he was alone facing his disciple Orochimaru and the Impure World Reincarnation of the Second Hokage. I'm not sure how many more years the Third Hokage could have lived if this hadn't happened. After all, no one can predict lifespan for sure, but there is no doubt that the Third Hokage could live for more than ten years.

"Hehe, then I'll take your good words." Sarutobi Hiruzen himself had no idea how many years he could live. For a ninja like him who was born in the Warring States Period, the general perception was that living to 50 years old was considered a long life, and he was already 57 years old now.

After laughing twice, Sarutobi Hiruzen returned to the topic, "Makoto... do you want to become a ninja of Konoha?"

"Well... to be honest, I didn't have this plan at first, but today during the day, a friend made me realize that there seemed to be some errors in my understanding of ninjas, so now... I would probably be happy to become a Konoha ninja."

Zhen Cod gave Izuna a look, then moved his chin towards Izuna's room. The latter immediately understood and returned to his room.

"Can I ask why you want to become a ninja?"

"Hokage-sama, are you asking about the ninjutsu of a common person like me who is not even an apprentice ninja yet?"

"An ordinary person? Maybe... but I know that if you are willing, you will probably soon become a powerful man who will dominate the ninja world." Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't know what the situation was with Mangekyō Sharingan and Susanoo of Mangekyō. He only knew that with such eyes, it was almost guaranteed that Mangekyō would reach a height that most people would never be able to reach in their entire lives right from the beginning of his ninja career.

"As for the way of the ninja... it probably means longing for a life like a tree, right? Living a carefree life while providing shelter for my family, this is my ideal. It sounds unambitious, doesn't it? A person who should be full of energy at an age, but is already thinking about 'retirement'."

Although he is a time traveler, Zhen Cod actually doesn't care much about whether he can make a name for himself in this world. He knows very well that he is a very lazy person, and if he wants to improve his strength, he mostly relies on the plug-in as a time traveler. Using such a thing, he may really be invincible in the ninja world, but he doesn't think there is anything to be proud of. After all, this is a plug-in in the literal sense, and its purpose is only to make his life more comfortable after the time travel, not to conquer the world and change the order as long as he has power.

"I consider myself to be a very ordinary person in terms of will. I don't have any lofty ideals, nor do I have any strong desires for things like power and beauty. I would probably be very happy if I simply lived a rich and comfortable life. However, if possible, I also hope that the people I care about can enjoy such a life as well as me."

After listening to Makoto's speech, the Third Hokage also smiled, "Such ideals are not ordinary at all."

"Hmm?" Zhen Cod was puzzled. "Isn't this normal? Isn't this what most people think after their original dreams lose to reality?"

"That may be true, but you who proposed such an ideal at the beginning, and you who always included your family when describing your ideal, made me feel the same strong will of fire as us Konoha ninjas."

"Uh... Will of Fire? I don't have the courage to sacrifice myself for the village like the Yondaime Hokage."

The so-called Will of Fire is the core idea of ​​the Konoha Ninja Village. It is a selfless spirit that means the older generation of ninjas trust and protect the younger generation of young people, and sacrifice themselves when necessary to ensure the living space of the next generation, so that they can gradually grow into new pillars. But Shincod doesn't think he has that kind of thing.

He thought he understood the Will of Fire best when he was playing 'Hashirama Senju's Impure World Reincarnation'.

"The will of fire is not just about sacrifice. At least in my opinion, the thought of protecting loved ones and younger generations is enough to be called the will of fire." The Third Hokage walked to the window, looked at the dark night and recited the most classic line.

"Where the leaves dance, the fire will continue. The flames will continue to illuminate the village and allow new leaves to sprout... I think what this sentence expresses is more than just the word sacrifice."

Then, he asked another question, "Makoto, do you know what the Yondaime is best at?"

"The Fourth Hokage... Of course he's good at speed."

"Yes, speed... As long as the Fourth Hokage is willing, no one in the entire ninja world can touch the edge of his clothes. So, tell me, if you were the Fourth Hokage who has the fastest speed in the entire ninja world, would you choose to run away on the day of the Nine-Tails Rebellion? You know, if you want to run, no one in this world can catch up with the Fourth Hokage's speed."

"How is that possible? If my family members are all there... uh..." Zhen Cod suddenly realized one thing. Even the most ordinary people would not abandon their wives and children and run away when they encounter danger. Even if they run away, they will definitely take their whole family with them. But if they want to take people with them... they will only find that the number of people they want to save is increasing, and in the end, it is better not to leave.

"But if a time traveler like me were to do it manually, I'm sure it wouldn't be done so crudely in the end..."

On the night of the Nine-Tails Rebellion, Minato neither saved his wife nor killed the enemy. He died and his son became a jinchūriki. Only the losses of the village were reduced to a minimum. The reason for this result was that, as a player in the game, Minato was limited by poor intelligence and the suddenness of the incident, and could not guarantee a perfect solution for every step. Secondly, Minato, who was not a native of the ninja world from the era of information explosion, could not perform some seemingly against the will of heaven but actually feasible operations like the netizens in Zhen Cod's previous life.

For example... Going home to Minato.

Manako's silence made Sandai feel relieved, because it meant that Manako was indeed a person who would not abandon those who had bonds with him, just as he expected.

"Look, being able to stand up in such a situation, isn't that already the same thing as the Hokage? As for whether you have ever been willing to sacrifice yourself... that's not important at all, because you who possess the Will of Fire will never allow yourself to make a decision that you will regret at a critical moment."

"Will of Fire... Okay, just pretend that I really have it." Zhen Cod was a little speechless. He still felt that the third generation was just bragging about him. He just didn't run away at the critical moment. This was a bunch of crap about Will of Fire.

"Since you, Shinji, already possess the will of fire, it will be easy for you to become a ninja..." Then, the Third Hokage took out a document from his arms, took out a pen, wrote a few words on it, and handed it to Shinji.

"What is this? An admission letter from the Ninja School? Huh? Why is my name written on it?" Zhen Cod was immediately confused. He never said he wanted to join the Ninja School.

"Yes, in fact, I had originally considered the possibility of meeting Izuna and examining her abilities, so I prepared for this from the beginning. My original plan was that if the child performed well, I would simply turn tomorrow's assessment into a performance. What I never expected was..."

"There's actually a ninja candidate here who needs to go to the ninja school even more! Shincod, your theory is a mess! I don't know which guy who knows nothing about ninjas taught you this knowledge, but if you plan to become a ninja, you'd better learn all this knowledge again."

"Ah this..."

"A guy who knows nothing about ninjas... Kishimoto? Indeed, he is just a comic artist, he knows nothing about Naruto." In his mind, Makoto skillfully blamed his misunderstanding on Naruto's author Masashi Kishimoto, and it seemed that the latter had no objection.

"No, it's too embarrassing for me to go to the first grade of ninja school at my age. You have to at least let me go to the sixth grade, right?" At this time, the tone of conversation between Shinji and the Third Hokage was already the same as chatting with an old man in the town, but it seemed that the latter not only didn't care but also was happy to see it happen.

"Sixth grade? You don't think there are sixth graders in ninja schools now?"

"Forehead……"

Although the Ninja School is nominally a six-year system, in reality, only in peacetime is it possible for students to really study for six years and then become ninjas.

Although the Third Ninja World War has nominally ended, in fact there are still local frictions, especially the death of the Fourth Hokage, which has caused other ninja villages, especially the Hidden Cloud Village, to begin to stir again. If the major ninja villages were not now severely damaged, the Third Hokage would have suspected that the other side would directly attack while Konoha was holding the Fourth Hokage's funeral.

Not to mention, the vacancies of Fire Country border ninjas caused by the deaths of ninjas in the Third Ninja World War have not been filled yet. With the situation so tense and the huge gap in military strength, how could it be possible for a ninja school to allow people to study for a full six years before graduating?

"Okay, my bad. So what's the highest grade in the ninja school now?"

"Fourth grade."

"Then let's go to the fourth grade. I think the Third Hokage should be able to fulfill this small request, right?" Even if we only count this life, Shinji is already 12 years old. It is indeed a bit difficult for him to go to a ninja school at this age and attend classes with a group of five or six-year-old children.

"Okay, okay, I'll make an exception for you, old man."

As for the assessment, the Third Generation felt that it was completely unnecessary. He could basically conclude that Shinko was a complete layman in ninja theory. If he didn't work hard in his future studies, there was a high probability that he would not pass the exam even though he was younger than those kids in the Ninja School.

As for actual combat... when Shincod revealed his Mangekyō Sharingan, it meant that he would most likely not have to consider actual combat assessments in his entire future ninja career. Just like that, because of the Third Hokage's sudden decision, the Ninja School was about to welcome the most evil fourth-year student in history.
