Picked up a copy of Konoha Ninja

The next day, after Sarutobi Hiruzen inspected the ninja troops outside the village, he called the ninja in charge of logistics to the Hokage's office to give some instructions. Just as he was about to take a rest, there was a knock on the door.

He put down the arm that was supporting his chin, tried to gather some energy and looked out the door, "Come in."

"Sir, the Third Hokage, excuse me." To his surprise, the person who came over turned out to be Uchiha Obito.

"Oh, it's Obito. What's the matter with you coming here this time?" Sarutobi Hiruzen has a good impression of the guy in front of him who is likely to inherit the will of his old friend Uchiha Kagami. He is very fond of him on the battlefield this time. I am also very satisfied with the strength and decisiveness shown in performing tasks.

"Well, the Third Hokage, the three of us from Class 7 and Class 9 have been in the village for two days. It's time for us to return to the front line."

Sarutobi Hiruzen narrowed his eyes and smiled kindly, "So you are here to say goodbye."

"There is one more thing besides this."

"Tell me and listen." Sarutobi Hiruzen showed some interest.

"I would like to recommend Genin Matt Dai."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was slightly startled, and the two Anbu ninjas guarding the window looked at each other.

"Hey, did I hear you right?"

"Matedai, he seems to be the genin in the village who doesn't know how to use ninjutsu, and this guy is only a chuunin. What does he want to recommend Matedai ​​for?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen in the room also looked at Obito with a strange look, "Obito, you are only a chuunin now, and it seems that you are not qualified to recommend anyone in the village."

"But Uncle Dai's strength can already open the fifth gate of the Eight Gates Dunjia, Dumen. Even the special jounin in the village may not be Uncle Dai's opponent."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes moved slightly, "Can Dai open Dumen?"

"Yes, this is what the three of us helped Uncle Dai break through yesterday." Obito stretched out his hand and scratched his head, "The Third Hokage, I heard that you can promote some ninjas with special skills to special jounin. Now the war is about to begin. , We in Konoha are lacking such a new force, so we might as well promote Uncle Dai as an exception."

Sarutobi Hiruzen pondered for a moment, then glanced at Obito with his eyebrows slightly furrowed, "As for Dai, he has actually carried out a lot of C-level and B-level missions. He also completed B-level missions in the past few years, but you know why. Didn’t I promote him to chuunin?”

"Is it because of the Chunin Exam and Uncle Dai's age?" Obito asked subconsciously.

"Smart." Sarutobi Hiruzen praised, "Dai must be a little discouraged. At that time when he was born, there were also geniuses. In recent years, talented ninjas like Sakumo, Dan, and Orochimaru have successively It appears that a person like him who doesn't know ninjutsu and even has poor chakra refinement can become a ninja, which is already an exceptional promotion."

When Obito's eyes dimmed, he heard Sarutobi Hiruzen say, "But if he is determined, even we inheritors of the Will of Fire may not be able to defeat him. He can sacrifice his life for the village at any time." That kind of person."

"The Eight-door Dunjia is one of the forbidden arts sealed in our village. Over the years, not many people have mastered this forbidden technique. Dai, it just lacks some experience. If the strength is enough, then there are Qualified to be nominated as a special jounin." At this point, Sarutobi Hiruzen stretched out his hand to touch his chin, "Let's go to the ninja troop camp outside the village and I will arrange a test for Dai. If he can pass it, I will Promote him to the rank of Special Jounin in public."

"That's really great." Obito bowed to Sarutobi Hiruzen with excitement on his face, "Thank you, Lord Third Hokage."

"But if you want him to go south with you, I'm afraid that won't work."

Obito was slightly startled, he hadn't spoken yet, why did the Third Hokage know about it in advance.

"The Third Hokage, I just hope that Uncle Dai can join us and temporarily become the captain of Team 9 to help us patrol the southern forest..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen interrupted him with a wave of his hand, "Obito, as you said, there is a shortage of manpower everywhere in the village. If we start a war in all directions in Konoha, the battlefields of Iwagakure and Kumogakure will be the ones we need to guard against the most. The ninja troops outside the village are preparing to go to Tian Country."

"Will Uncle Dai act with them?"

"Well, he will be incorporated into the close combat team and be responsible for carrying out battlefield assault missions." Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded.

Obito's eyes were dim. Sure enough, after forcibly changing the future of Matt Dai, he would also change. His strength would become stronger. If he was promoted to special jounin, he would also take on heavier responsibilities, not as he thought. Continue to participate in the battle in the southern part of the Fire Country.

"Okay, let's go to the ninja army together." As he said that, Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced out the window, and a figure landed in the room with a "swish" sound, "The Third Hokage."

"Go and inform Matt Dai to go to the ninja troop camp to participate in the promotion trial."

"Yes." The ANBU ninja immediately accepted the order and left, but the corners of his mouth twitched. Like his ANBU colleagues, he was a little shocked by Sarutobi Hiruzen's decision.

A genin who has been around for ten thousand years is suddenly promoted to a special jounin. Are you kidding me?

When the news reached the ninja troops, almost everyone looked at the two figures in front of them, one tall and one short, in a daze.

"The Third Hokage-sama actually accepted the proposal of a newly promoted chuunin."

"That Matt Dai is quite famous in the village, but as a genin of ten thousand years, he doesn't look like a talent who can be promoted directly."

"Who knows, in the promotion test later, the Third Hokage must come up with something that convinces us."

As Sarutobi Hiruzen coughed twice, the noisy discussion in the field disappeared. Then Sarutobi Hiruzen asked Matt Dai to fight with a squad leader of the ANBU.

The captain level of the ANBU is usually an elite jounin. After Metadai opened the four gates and the injury gate, he completely crushed this guy physically. When Sarutobi Hiruzen and everyone saw it with great splendor, Matt Dai was about to take advantage of the victory to open the fifth gate, Dumen, but was stopped by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"That's enough, that's it for today. I believe everyone here has seen Dai's strength. In our village, in terms of physical skills, no one can beat Dai." After saying that, Sarutobi Hiruzen left. He looked at Matt Dai with a serious face, "Matt Dai, in the name of the Third Hokage, I promote you to a special jounin, and you will be incorporated into the close combat assault team of the third ninja force and serve as the squad leader."

"Yes." Matt Dai cheered up and glanced gratefully at Obito, who was standing next to Sarutobi Hiruzen. He had worked hard for most of his life and finally was no longer a genin.
