I am a member in Konoha

"I came at the wrong time."

After arriving at the Hokage's office, Toshihiko said with a chuckle as he looked at the figure inside.

After the invigilator organized the test papers, Toshihiko also came to the Hokage's office to report the situation to the third generation.

But when he came to the office, he found that someone was already inside.

And this person is still an acquaintance, Hatake Sakumo.

"Junyan, you came just in time. I just have something to discuss with you. But by the way, everything went well in the assessment."

After Toshihiko Hinata entered the office, Hiruzen Sarutobi put down the arm that was resting on his chin and spoke softly.

The overtone of these words is Jiraiya, no problem.

"Everything went well, except for one unlucky guy. But, senior brother, do you have anything else to explain?"

After sitting down on the sofa in the office minding his own business, Toshiyan said casually.

"It's like this. After the assessment is over, you and Tsunade will enter the ANBU, and Hatake Sakumo will join your team."

Pointing at Hatake Sakumo in front of him, Sarutobi Hiruzen said very directly.

"Become part of my team! No problem." Hearing this, Toshiyan was stunned at first, but said very simply.

But Toshihiko knew that Hatake Sakumo had his own ninja team before.

Judging from the third generation's decision and the lonely look on Hatake Sakumo's face, his teammates may have had an accident in the previous mission.

If that's the case, then Toshihiko naturally doesn't mind recruiting one more talent. After all, he is also the future White Fang of Konoha, a name that can make children stop crying at night.

"That would be great, Sakumo, from now on you will be included in Toshihiko's team."

"Yes!"

Since it was Hokage-sama's arrangement, even though Hatake Sakumo was a little tangled in his heart, he still nodded in agreement.

I thought he was responsible for Hinata Toshihiko's graduation assessment, but he was defeated.

Later, when they participated in the Chuunin Examination together, Hatake Sakumo still wanted to use this assessment to save face, but no one could have imagined that the rules of the final assessment had changed.

But Hatake Sakumo knew very well that even if the rules did not change, he would have no chance of winning against Hyuga Toshihiko.

Later, while he was still working hard to become a jounin, Toshihiko Hinata had already done several things that shocked the ninja world, and was promoted to jounin by the village.

And now, Toshihiko Hinata will become his captain again.

To be honest, at this moment, Hatake Sakumo really felt like things were different.

Fortunately, Hatake Sakumo is not the kind of petty person, and he must be convinced of Hinata Toshihiko's achievements. The opponent is stronger than him in both talent and strength.

As for the strong, Hatake Sakumo showed respect.

"Hello Captain."

Arriving in front of Hinata Toshihiko, Hatake Sakumo respectfully addressed him.

"You don't have to be so formal. From now on, you will be one of your own! In this way, I just made an appointment with Jiraiya and the others to have dinner, so you can come too, just in time to introduce you to everyone."

Listening to Hatake Sakumo's words, Hinata Toshihiko spoke openly.

"That's not bad. After all, you young people have a young person's way of communicating. Let's go together." At this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen also said.

"Okay!" Hatake Sakumo still seemed a little reluctant to let go.

"Let's go! See you later, senior brother."

Faced with such a scene, Toshihiko didn't bother to talk anymore, he just put his arms around Hatake Sakumo's neck and walked out. Of course, he didn't forget to say hello to the third generation before leaving.

"Today's young people."

Looking at the leaving figures of Toshihiko and Hatake Sakumo, Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head slightly.

"We're at our appointed place ahead, so act more naturally and don't be so formal."

With his right hand, Hatake Sakumo's shoulder pointed at the tavern not far away, and Toshihiko said very boldly.

Since leaving the Hokage's office, Hatake Sakumo has been in a tense state all over. Toshihiko thought he was too nervous, so he asked him to relax quickly.

But Hatake Sakumo was not nervous, it was because he was not used to someone holding his shoulder like this.

But what should I say? Although he was a little unaccustomed to it, Hatake Sakumo didn't resist this feeling from the bottom of his heart.

"Toshihiko, you are still as slow as ever. Huh? This is Hatake Sakumo-senpai, right?"

Just before Toshihiko and Hatake Sakumo entered the tavern, Jiraiya's voice came from the tavern.

But after seeing Hatake Sakumo, not to mention Jiraiya, even Tsunade and Orochimaru were slightly surprised.

"Isn't this something? Let me introduce to you our team's new teammate, Hatake Sakumo."

Arriving in the box, Toshihiko was unequivocal and took the lead in introducing Hatake Sakumo to everyone.

"New member of the team?"

"Welcome, welcome. With this, our team's strength will undoubtedly grow again."

When Toshiyan finished speaking, the three of them were stunned for a moment, and then spoke enthusiastically.

"Please take good care of me in the future."

Facing everyone's smiles, Hatake Sakumo said with a smile after touching the back of his head.

Not to mention, Hatake Sakumo still looks a little naive now.

"Now that we have a new teammate, let's stop being silly and let's all have a drink first."

In Jiraiya's view, wine is undoubtedly the fastest thing to enhance feelings, so he didn't waste any time. He first filled up a glass for Hatake Sakumo, and then raised his own glass.

"Well, I may have to leave first after finishing this drink, and I won't be able to accompany you."

But at this moment, Tsunade said a little embarrassed.

"What happened?" Junyan couldn't help but ask.

In his impression, unless something important happened, Tsunade would not miss such a gathering, let alone a new teammate.

"It's because of my brother. He has been very clingy to me recently, so I want to go back to accompany him."

Looking at Toshihiko's slightly frowned brow, Tsunade quickly explained.

"younger brother?!"

After hearing this, Junyan suddenly realized that he had almost forgotten this. He went to see Shengshu when she was born last year.

In total, he is already two years old this year, so clinging to Tsunade is completely normal.

"Then go back and spend time with Shengshu." After nodding, Junyan said softly.

"Well, then you should drink less. There is a practical test tomorrow. Especially you, Jiraiya."

Listening to Toshihiko's words, Tsunade nodded slightly, but before leaving, she did not forget to remind Jiraiya.

If not for anything else, he was afraid that after he left, Jiraiya, that bastard, would lead Toshihiko astray.

Facing Tsunade's words, Jiraiya was about to cry. He wanted to, but the recent expenses were really high. He said that he couldn't afford to go, unless of course Toshihiko invited him.
