Chapter 313: Anbu? No way!

After correcting some details and instructing Naruto to continue to dig deeper into the potential of this 'new ninjutsu', Aoba generously reduced the punishment by half.

After all, developing new ninjutsu would definitely take a lot of time. He could not pour cold water on Naruto's enthusiasm.

Moreover, in order to encourage Naruto to develop more ninjutsu, he also provided Naruto with a lot of excellent materials for academic research and research.

One must know that he had studied for so many years in the previous world, and the deeply impressed sensei certainly could not only be a few.

As for what Naruto wants to show...

'A gentleman. Shinomiya Aoba immediately refused sternly. If the Lord was afraid of nutrition, he could not let Naruto take an inch.'

Fortunately, he refused in time, otherwise he would be embarrassed.

He saw a member of Anbu suddenly appear, "Shinomiya Aoba, Hokage-sama has summoned you!"

Huh? Why is that old man Sarutobi looking for me at this time?

Aoba was somewhat surprised, but he still went straight to the Hokage building.

When he entered the office, he found that not only him, but also Itachi and Gekko Hayate.

"Since everyone is here, I will tell you the reason why I called you here. Do you want to join Anbu?"

Ha?

Aoba and the other two were stunned at the same time. They did not expect that they wanted to invite them to join Anbu.

But shouldn't this kind of thing be asked separately?

After all, the identity of Anbu's member had to be kept secret. Of course, it could not be ruled out like Kakashi, where many people were well aware of it.

Aoba and Itachi immediately looked at each other. It was not 'exclusion' Gekko Hayate, but the two of them had long been through this assumption.

"I am very sorry. I feel that I am not suitable to enter Anbu for a mission."

Aoba refused first.

Sarutobi seemed to have expected this. He only nodded and did not say anything else.

Although the strength of Mikawa Team had advanced by leaps and bounds in the past two years and had accumulated quite a bit of prestige, a certain someone had not caused any more trouble.

However, Aoba's occasional personality was indeed not very compatible with Anbu.

What Sarutobi valued more was still Itachi and Gekko Hayate.

However, if Aoba was willing to join Anbu, Sarutobi would still agree. After all, the most important thing for a ninja was strength. With this brat's strength, even if he entered Anbu and held an important position, it would be enough.

However, what Sarutobi did not expect was that after Aoba spoke, Itachi also refused.

"Are you also unwilling to join Anbu?" What is the reason? If it is some unnecessary worry, I think you have no need at all. If Fugaku does not agree, I will naturally come forward personally. No matter what, Uchiha is also a part of Konoha. You should understand this principle. "

At the end of his words, Sarutobi was not only sincere but also seemed to have other meanings.

However, Itachi's attitude was very firm. "This matter has nothing to do with anything else. I am indebted to Hiruzen-sama's kindness, but I really do not have the intention to enter Anbu."

Sarutobi frowned slightly and inevitably began to think about some things.

To let Itachi enter Anbu was actually to test the attitude of Uchiha Clan in this matter. Moreover, he recognized Itachi very much and hoped that Itachi could do things for him. It would be best to help the village secretly monitor Uchiha Clan.

To put it bluntly, he wanted Itachi to be a spy.

Because Uchiha Clan had been acting more and more abnormally recently, he and all of Konoha's higher-ups were very uneasy. They urgently needed to know what Uchiha was planning to do so that they could prepare countermeasures in advance.

Itachi was the best candidate for this matter. Sarutobi also believed that he would not misjudge the person.

However, he did not expect that Itachi would refuse so directly that he was unable to say what he wanted to say next.

Sarutobi could only look at Gekko Hayate, who had not expressed his opinion in the end, hoping to open up a breakthrough from him.

"Don't tell me that you also want to refuse?" Sarutobi said with a smile, as if he was joking, but Gekko Hayate felt a great pressure.

To be honest, he actually didn't refuse to join Anbu, and his Kekkei Genkai was also very suitable to carry out Anbu's task.

But.

After looking at the expressionless Aoba and Itachi, Gekko Hayate made up his mind, "I think it is good to stay in Mikawa Team. Whether you enter Anbu or not, Mikawa Team will do its best to complete the task assigned by Hokage-sama."

The implication was to refuse.

Sarutobi could not help but sigh in his heart. Was Anbu so unattractive now?

If he had the right to act as the Hokage, he could force anyone to join Anbu, including Aoba and the others.

But forced melon is not sweet, even if it can quench thirst, what's the use?

He does not lack 'melon', what he lacks is 'sweet to the point' that can make him free of worries!

Looking at their attitude, it is estimated that even if they enter Anbu, they will not be able to meet his requirements.

Sarutobi, who was very helpless, could only leave some leeway and say, "Don't be in such a hurry to answer me. Go back and think about it. Although Anbu's mission is relatively dangerous, it is also very good for your growth. Many Jonin are actually honed from Anbu, and such talents are more capable of taking on important responsibilities."

Sarutobi began to suggest crazily again.

He basically said with a spittle, "As long as you are willing to come to Anbu, you will be promoted to Jonin in less than a year or two. Otherwise, just bear with it!"

With Kakashi's valiant record and reputation, after only one year of promotion to Gennin, it took him nearly seven years to become Jonin. Of course, even after waiting for six or seven years, Kakashi was only twelve years old when he was promoted to Jonin.

Guy even spent four years after graduation to promote to Gennin, and then spent more than five years. It took him nearly 10 years to successfully promote to Jonin at the age of 16.

And Kakashi and Guy were already three years old at Jonin school.

Even if Aoba and Itachi broke the record of Kakashi's graduation, it was almost impossible for Sarutobi to make an exception and promote them.

After all, the war had already passed, so what was the point of creating special cases in a peaceful era?

Aoba and the others understood Sarutobi's hint, but just a mere Jonin, did he really think that this young master was very rare?

If you have the ability, then don't let this young master be Jonin for the rest of your life!

This time, even if you break through the heavens, don't try to trick Itachi into becoming a two-faced spy.

Because I started to trick him since I was 4 or 5 years old!

After all these years, Itachi has been fooled by him for a long time, so you should save your breath. Don't use that set of principles of the will of fire to persuade Itachi to abandon the darkness and surrender to the light.

The real 'light' is not you or Uchiha, but him, Aoba!

I, Shinomiya Aoba, am the light of Uchiha Itachi, so please prepare the fast-acting Heart Relief Pill and see how I operate it!
