Naruto: I became a super shadow in the Anbu.

Chapter 308 The Prophecy of the Child
"Where the leaves dance in the air, the fire will surely reignite!"

Upon hearing this again, Ye Guang sighed, wondering if Hiruzen Sarutobi himself believed it.

In times of crisis, there is no doubt that Hiruzen Sarutobi would die for Konoha.

But it's hard to say how much benefit he usually brings to Konoha.

The students at the ninja academy listened, half-asleep, and stood there swaying unsteadily.

Many principles cannot be truly understood without practical experience.

Only in war can these genin understand what the Will of Fire is, comprehend its light, and also understand its darkness.

Surrounded by school teachers and secret agents, the students dared not do anything.

Minato Namikaze, sitting in the first row, looked up attentively as he listened to the Third Hokage's speech.

Minato Namikaze was very curious about everything the Third Hokage told him, and he tried his best to accept and ponder it carefully.

Kushina Uzumaki, who was standing to the side, was not listening attentively. Her thoughts had already wandered elsewhere, and she was looking forward to her graduation.

Once I graduate, I'll be a ninja and I'll be able to do a lot of things.

She will begin to help the Senju clan, to gather intelligence, and to investigate the truth behind the annihilation of the Uzumaki clan.

She always felt that many places were filled with eeriness on the night the Whirlpool Clan was wiped out.

After the Third Hokage finished speaking, the students from each class dispersed and returned to their respective classrooms under the teacher's guidance, waiting to be assigned to their new classes.

Ye Guang suddenly turned his head and looked at the entrance of the teaching building on the side.

A toad jumped out of the flower bed by the door.

A large amount of chakra appeared on the toad's body.

Bang!
A thick plume of white smoke appeared.

The students nearby all looked at the white smoke, thinking it was some kind of special graduation fireworks.

Amidst the white smoke, the clattering sound of wooden clogs echoed.

"The Immortal Taoist of the Toad Spirit of Mount Miaoboku! Commonly known as the Toad Immortal!"
A master and disciple destined by fate! A disciple foretold by prophecy!

I will follow the prophecy of the Great Toad Sage! I will take away my destined disciple!

As the white smoke dissipated, Jiraiya was revealed, dancing and gesturing wildly.

Yako heard that Jiraiya had run away from the village, so why did he come back?

Not only is the glowing thing strange, but the third generation is also strange.

The third generation looked at Nightlight, who nodded and vanished in an instant.

It suddenly landed next to Jiraiya, and Jiraiya's smug expression vanished instantly.

Ok?
Hiruzen-sensei's Anbu?
That's something. His teleportation technique is pretty fast.

Ye Guang said, "Lord Jiraiya, the Hokage requests your presence."

Jiraiya looked at Minato Namikaze to the side and said, "Don't worry about me. I received the Great Toad Sage's prophecy and I'm going to take away the prophesied child."

Following Jiraiya's gaze, Yagami looked at Minato Namikaze and thought to himself, "If Minato Namikaze were to be given to the Third Hokage's lineage, how would Konoha be able to change in the future?"

Nightlight moved his feet and stood between Jiraiya and Minato Namikaze.

"Lord Jiraiya, the Hokage requests your presence."

Seeing the Dark Division Captain's determination, Jiraiya had no choice but to go to the Third Hokage's side on the high platform.

As soon as Jiraiya landed, he immediately said:
"Teacher, quick, give me a class. When I was practicing asceticism on Mount Myōboku, the Great Toad Sage told me a prophecy."

A blond boy is about to become a ninja, the prophesied child who will change the ninja world.

Among this year's graduates, the blond-haired one has unlimited potential, but he can only be like Minato Namikaze.

"Hiruzen-sensei, quickly assign Minato Namikaze's class to me."

Hiruzen Sarutobi, unusually, did not show favoritism towards his disciple; instead, he said with disappointment and frustration:

"After the Second Shinobi World War, the village established a rule that all Jonin must serve as Jonin, even if they were Genin."

All the Jonin responded to this rule and came to the school to select students.

What about you?

Where have you been these past two years? What have you been doing?
You'd rather go to the Land of Rain to teach three children from an enemy country, one of whom has an ambiguous relationship with Madara Uchiha, than return to your village. As for Minato Namikaze, his talent is undeniable.

Sakumo Hatake had long taken a liking to him and had been training him for over a year.

Sakumo Hatake specifically named Minato Namikaze as his disciple, and also proved with his actions that he would teach Minato Namikaze seriously.

The class assignment meeting at the Ninja Academy was completed half a month ago, and the division of classes into different classes by which Jonin would lead them had already been decided.

The student that Sakumo Hatake brought was Minato Namikaze.

Now you suddenly come back and say you can change it as you please?

I cannot change a decision I have already made simply because you are my disciple.

Ye Guang also felt that while Minato Namikaze was indeed a genius, there were many geniuses in the Ninja Academy. It was unnecessary to create conflict between him and Sakumo Hatake for a genin who had just graduated.

Sakumo Hatake is a Kage-level fighter in the village, so he still has some influence.

The Third Hokage couldn't possibly embarrass Sakumo Hatake in front of so many people.

In the classroom, the class assignment process has already begun.

Tsunade pushed the door open, but she didn't use much force. Unexpectedly, the door was so light that it slammed heavily against the wall.

The students were startled.

After Tsunade entered, she looked at Kushina Uzumaki.

In the original story, Tsunade had already left Konoha and was wandering in the Land of Fire at this time.

Tsunade is still in the village, and as Kushina Uzumaki's mentor, Tsunade is naturally in charge.

After taking the three students away, Sakumo Hatake entered the classroom.

Minato Namikaze had no idea that he had just almost lost his teacher, Sakumo.

Sakumo Hatake selected three civilian ninjas, including Minato Namikaze, and left the classroom.

Jiraiya watched from afar as Sakumo Hatake chatted with three students on the rooftop of the school building, feeling extremely disappointed.

Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced at Jiraiya, deliberately provoking him:
"Jiraiya, you must become more involved in the village's affairs."

If you stay in the village, hold a position, or carry out missions, I will have the opportunity to arrange for you to meet Minato Namikaze early on.

You need to reflect on whether you've invested too little in the village.

Jiraiya is almost thirty years old, so of course he wouldn't accept this level of psychological manipulation.

He said, "Stay in the village all the time? You're getting tired of the scenery at Konoha Beach. Unlike you, you've been looking at this village for decades."

"When did I see that?!" Hiruzen Sarutobi denied repeatedly, "I was only led astray by you once, and I went to the back wall of the women's bathhouse!"

Jiraiya waved his hand and said:

"Find me again during wartime, Hiruzen-sensei. I'm leaving now."

However, during this time, please help me collect information about Minato Namikaze's growth trajectory.

"I'll contact Minato again once he becomes a Chunin, capable of standing on his own, and is no longer Sakumo Hatake's student."

The idea of ​​being the prophesied child was Jiraiya's obsession.

The Third Hokage said, "Jiraiya, a group of people with good aptitude will enroll in the second half of the year."

"My youngest son, Sarutobi Asuma, and Hatake Sakumo's son, Kakashi, you can try observing them beforehand, and then take them as your disciples after they graduate."

“Sakumo Hatake’s son sounds very capable, but you should probably forget about your son.”

Bang!
Jiraiya turned into white smoke and headed towards Mount Myōboku.

"Jiraiya! You..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi wanted to say something, but the man had vanished.

The members of the secret service all turned their heads in unison.

In the middle of the night, Ye Guang suddenly opened his eyes and received a notification from the contract chakra.

Yu Jia was calling out to herself.
