Konoha: The seal art teacher of the ninja school

Chapter 94 The Third Generation (This chapter is a little sketchy)

Late November, in the Hokage's office.

"Today's young people are developing so well!"

The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, was as usual, conscientiously observing the public mood of Konoha with a crystal ball, and couldn't help but express the above sentiments.

In the crystal ball on the table, the playground of the Ninja School was floating... and the scene of the bathhouse not far outside.

I saw a group of young girls in bathrobes walking towards the open-air bath in the verandah of the bathhouse.

And the vision of the crystal ball followed them closely, and they would soon arrive at the open-air bath...

Sarutobi Hiruzen's pupils gradually dilated, but his expression became more upright and stern.

He knew that many people with ulterior motives were spreading rumors about him, saying that he always used crystal balls to spy on girls.

But this is just the world's misunderstanding of him.

Yes, the Sandaime Hokage is actually only indirectly understanding the true situation of Konoha by observing the development of the younger generation.

After all, the interior of Konoha is not monolithic. Ninja clan forces are so scattered that the Second Hokage has been committed to cultivating civilian ninjas as a countermeasure.

In addition, when Hiruzen Sarutobi was appointed to become Hokage when he was in danger, in order to stabilize Konoha, he had to share a lot of power with his partners, who are now the elders.

Therefore, although he is known as the strongest Hokage, his control over Konoha is not as strong as people think.

In order to prevent people below from committing fraud.

Sarutobi Hiruzen had no choice but to humiliate himself and understand the true face of Konoha from a place without any pretense like an open-air bath.

For example, he learned from the development status of young people that Konoha has been developing well in recent years and has sufficient food, so it can keep up with the nutritional needs of young people.

This approach is undoubtedly much more intuitive than boring paper data.

Very intuitive.

And this is not only about Konoha, but also the general trend of the ninja world.

By analogy with the situation in Konoha, the scars suffered by various countries in the Second Ninja World War should also be healed to the same extent.

For revenge, to seek more benefits, or to divert conflicts in the village, the major ninja villages may start a war again at any time.

If one thing goes wrong, the Third Ninja War may break out in a few years!

Therefore, Sarutobi Hiruzen's job is even more related to the peace of the ninja world.

For this reason, he opened his eyes so wide that they were almost glued to the crystal ball, not daring to let go of any detail.

Who knows if that bathrobe contains a huge... secret that can save the ninja world.

But just as the crystal ball's vision followed the girls to the open-air bath...

The screen suddenly went black!

Gan, it’s like this again!

Sarutobi Hiruzen almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

Why are all these bathhouses and bathhouses equipped with shielding circles recently?

Who did it?

What is his purpose in doing this? Who instigated him?

Has he obtained permission from the relevant authorities?

Who is he guarding against?

What, are you guarding against the Hyuga clan?

That's okay.

well!

The happy time of the day is over again.

The Sandaime sighed and put away the crystal ball helplessly. After thinking about it, he picked up the report from the Sarutobi clan and read it.

After all, in addition to being the Sandaime Hokage, he is also the leader of the Sarutobi clan, so he naturally has to pay attention to the development of the Sarutobi clan.

Sometimes the work on both sides is too busy and he can't switch identities. He can be forgiven for accidentally using the name of Hokage to give some policy preferences to the Sarutobi clan.

After all, his family is his strength against the elders.

This is also for Konoha!

Looking through the family's report for this month, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction when he saw that everything was flourishing.

As expected, he, the clan leader, is really good at running things!

By the way, except for the crystal ball thing, his life has been pretty good recently.

The eldest son Shinnosuke is a well-known talent among the younger generation, so naturally he does not need to worry.

Asma, the second child who used to be naughty and mischievous, has become more obedient recently and even goes home late every day after practicing.

Moreover, the look in his eyes was full of respect, which made him very happy.

Although he was a little embarrassed after learning the reason from Lake Biwa, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally decided to maintain his father's dignity and did not tell Asuma the truth.

In addition, Lake Biwa seems to be working on some school-enterprise cooperation plan with the sealing teacher recently.

I often work late and don't even go home.

This made Sarutobi Hiruzen feel that his waist has been much better recently.

At this moment, a significantly increased income point in the report attracted his attention.

"Hey, why did "Sasuke Retsuden" suddenly sell so well? It actually topped the bookstore rankings?"

You must know that this book has been on sale for a long time, and the market evaluation has always been mediocre. How could it suddenly become popular?

Then Sarutobi Hiruzen recalled that Biwako seemed to have said before that there was a way to increase the sales of "Sasuke Retsuden", so he just went with her.

Could this be the effect of Lake Biwa's method?

Sarutobi Hiruzen became a little curious.

Then he remembered that there seemed to be a box of samples of the new version of "Sasuke Retsuden" in his office...

Soon he found the box in the corner, which was filled with dozens of copies of "Sasuke Retsuden".

He picked up a book and started reading.

Doesn’t it feel any different from the previous one in terms of cover or content?

Did Lake Biwa spend money on publicity?

It wasn't until Hiruzen Sarutobi turned to the last page that he discovered the difference from the previous version.

On the last page that was originally blank, there was an extra large square made up of many small black and white squares, which looked like some kind of cipher text symbol.

There is also a cartoon character portrait below.

It looks a bit familiar...

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked carefully and found out:

Isn't this his father?

I saw the cartoon Sasuke Sarutobi on the page wearing a golden armor and carrying a wish stick on his shoulder. There was a bubble box next to it, which said:

"Hello everyone, I am GAY, and I am GAY. This is a new game that you have never played before. You only need to play it for three minutes, and you will fall in love with this game just like me!"

There is a line of text at the bottom:

[Bring this book to the bar counter of the Genin Tavern and you can exchange it for a Sarutobi Sasuke-themed commemorative card pack! 】

Sarutobi Hiruzen: "???"

He hesitated for a moment before he remembered that this so-called ninja card seemed to be something that Xia Yan, a sealing art teacher, had tinkered with not long ago.

It was originally a teaching aid used to help students learn to draw runes.

But recently it seems that another tavern has been opened to promote this game.

It also seems to be cooperating with the Ninja School, which is part of the school-enterprise cooperation plan in Lake Biwa.

Since Lake Biwa was following, he didn't pay too much attention.

From this point of view, Biwako said before that the way to increase sales should be to promote each other with this Genin card.

When people who bought the book saw that there was a gift for them, they would naturally go to the Jiren Tavern to check it out.

And people who want to get this so-called "card pack" will also buy more books.

Having figured it out, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but nodded, thinking that this was not a method that the old-fashioned Lake Biwa could come up with. It should be the idea of ​​Natsuhiko's kid.

Sure enough, young people not only develop well, but also have bright minds.

After seeing this advertisement, even Sarutobi Hiruzen became somewhat interested in the Genin Tavern.

So he took out the crystal ball and put it on the table, then positioned his perspective in the tavern, intending to see what was going on inside.

Who would have thought that when the crystal ball emerged, it turned out to be pitch black again!

Sarutobi Hiruzen: "..."

Why do you feel that this scene seems a bit familiar?

ps: The following text is not charged

It seems that no matter what I write recently, some book friends will criticize me.

When I put it on the shelves for the first time, I always wanted to be worthy of everyone's subscriptions, but I felt that my hands were tied and I didn't know what to write that would be useless.

After all, I have written about it many times before. Teaching, inventing, opening a shop, and cultivating are the main lines of this book.

I don’t know if you have read Yasuo Hatake’s book. Actually, I wanted to write this book in a relaxed style and then be a little more serious, so I added a story line about teaching and cultivation.

If you have any suggestions, you can leave a message in this line, or if you like any previous plots, you can tell me.

To be honest, I don’t know what people like to watch.

Or if you think it's good to keep the previous style, you can give this line a 1, or give it a like.

As for the update issue...

All I can say is that I spent all the time I could on coding.

I haven't even opened Steam in a few months.

I said before that I was a novice and some book friends didn’t believe me...

Now I finally proved myself with my hand speed (great sadness)!
