Shinobi: I'm Really a Supportive Ninja

After New Year's Day, a new chapter opens, and time comes to Konoha's 45th year.

This year, Akira Hatake, Kurenai Yuhi, Ebisu, Genma Shiranui, Asuma Sarutobi, Shizune and others graduated from the ninja school.

The platinum generation of Konoha have basically completed their studies in ninja schools and started their careers as genin.

Konoha, Hokage Building, Hokage Office.

Minato, I originally wanted to wait another year for you to become the leader of the team, but Sakumo came to me many times and named you to lead the team. After taking a few puffs of cigarette, Sarutobi Hiruzen asked Namikaze Minato's opinion, Minato, what do you mean?

It's all up to Hokage-sama's arrangement!

Namikaze Minato was like a thoughtless tool. He never expressed an opinion in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen. He only showed compliance, compliance, and compliance.

Both Akira and Kakashi are good prospects, and they are twin brothers. Their unique bond is incomparable to other people's, and they fit well with the Will of Fire.

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled, looking a little mysterious in the smoke.

Minato, please tell me carefully, how is this child doing?

Hokage-sama, you know I have been in contact with you. Apart from being a little lazy, there are no problems with my senses in other aspects. I even have the talent to practice the Flying Thunder God Jutsu. Namikaze Minato told the truth.

It seems you know this child Ming very well.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's light words made Namikaze Minato sweat on his forehead, and then he knelt on one knee in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Please forgive me, Hokage-sama, I did have some contact with Akira Hatake, but I did not teach her the Flying Thunder God technique in private.

Don't be so nervous, get up. Sarutobi Hiruzen was very satisfied. He took a pleasant breath of smoke into his lungs and exhaled it slowly, You are Jiraiya's disciple, and Jiraiya is also my disciple, so naturally I can trust you. It was just a casual question.

Namikaze Minato didn't say anything else, stood up and stood respectfully aside, waiting for Sarutobi Hiruzen's next words.

Minato, I value you very much, as well as the father and son of the Hatake family. Hiruzen Sarutobi spoke very slowly, I am getting old. Not only is my strength declining, but my energy is not as good as before. Konoha's The future still depends on you young people.

Hokage-sama, you are now in your prime. Namikaze Minato said somewhat against his will.

Haha, I know my own body. Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up, Minato, perform well, there will definitely be something wonderful for you in the future.

Thank you, Hokage-sama, for taking this seriously! Namikaze Minato was still filled with sadness and joy, showing caution in his respect.

Okay, although Sakumo is a little impatient, it is understandable. You will be the leader and guide Akira and Kakashi. Sarutobi Hiruzen pushed two separate documents to Namikaze Minato, These are the detailed resumes of the two brothers, please take a look.

Then he picked through the remaining resumes of genin from other professions, selected a dozen and pushed them in front of Namikaze Minato.

Although it has been tentatively decided that you will lead Hatake Akira and Hatake Kakashi, there is still one person missing in the three-person team, so you can choose one more person to join your team.

I wonder what the Hokage-sama wants from this third person?

Namikaze Minato has a very high IQ, so he naturally knows what politeness is, and he can also position himself correctly.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's actions seemed to let Minato Namikaze make the decision, but in fact it was a new round of testing.

He has no power, only talent and strength, and his teacher Jiraiya has a very non-competitive temperament, so there is basically no one who can help him.

After becoming the leading jounin of Akira Hatake and Kakashi Hatake, the situation of Naami Feng Shuimen will undergo some changes, which will greatly increase the power behind him.

Let's not talk about whether Namikaze Minato can become a candidate for Hokage through this, but this layer of nepotism will be a big help to both the Hatake clan and Namikaze Minato himself.

To a greater or lesser extent, it will affect the balance between the three forces of Sarutobi Hiruzen, Konoha's three advisors, and Hatake Sakumo.

After Namikaze Minato was included in the ranks of one of his own by Hiruzen Sarutobi, Namikaze Minato still had to follow his will in many matters to prevent him from becoming the next political victim.

Originally, I planned to leave a place for the Uchiha clan in Team 7, but because of Sakumo, this idea cannot be realized for the time being.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was very satisfied with Namikaze Minato's attitude, and he immediately did not hide his thoughts and told Namikaze Minato everything.

The Uchiha clan is very proud. If Team 7 doesn't have a seat for them, no one knows whether there will be problems in the future, so I can only let you feel aggrieved first.

The genin team you lead has changed from the original seventh class to the eighth class. There is no need to put the genin of the Uchiha clan into it. It would be good for you to choose one of them who is talented but relatively weak.

After all, Hatake Akira and Hatake Kakashi are both geniuses. If another genius is arranged to join, I believe many people will raise objections.

I understand, Hokage-sama.

Namikaze Minato nodded, and then patiently selected from the several genin resumes given to him by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Soon, Namikaze Minato picked out two resumes and then pushed them back to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Hokage-sama, I prefer Metkai and Akabane Rieko, but it's hard to choose between them. Please give me a suggestion.

Haha, what's so difficult about this? Sarutobi Hiruzen was very happy, Namikaze Minato was an obedient person.

He is like this, Hokage-sama. Namikaze Minato pointed at Metkai's resume, Metkai is a pure taijutsu ninja. He is an out-and-out genius in taijutsu, but he is not proficient in ninja. The limitations of the technique are too great, and it meets your requirements very well.

However, if he is chosen, Team 8 will lack medical ninjas, and loopholes will inevitably appear when the team operates, so I prefer Akabane Rieko.

But Akabane Rieko also has a big problem. She has been frail and sick since she was a child. Although she has a fair talent for medical ninjutsu, she is not qualified for high-intensity tasks in the future and can easily become a breakthrough.

That's it... Sarutobi Hiruzen thought for a moment, Then choose Metkai, and you may not know that Hatake Akira has medical ability, and it's very strong!

I'm sorry, Hokage-sama, I really didn't know that Akira Hatake had the talent of a medical ninja.

In fact, Hatake Akira does not have a very outstanding medical ninja talent. He only has a special healing and auxiliary ability. Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled, If cultivated well, Hatake Akira is likely to grow in the future. To the level of Tsunade.

Obviously, in order for Hatake Akira and Hatake Kakashi to become disciples of Namikaze Minato at the same time, Hatake Sakumo also made sacrifices and even revealed part of Hatake Akira's special abilities.

This has advantages and disadvantages.

I understand, Hokage-sama, the members of Team 8 are Akira Hatake, Kakashi Hatake, and Metkai. Minato Namikaze smiled, Then I will hand over the mission and go gather my team. Member.

Go ahead.

Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand, and after Minato Namikaze left, he leaned back on the Hokage chair and slowly closed his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
