Chapter 20 Ninja Team

"The top student in the Ninja School? Who is it? It can't be your son Asuma, right?"

Danzo was slightly stunned and asked.

Although the geniuses in the ninja school are worthless, they are at least potential jonins. Looking at the entire genin, jonins are not common people and can be counted on ten fingers.

However, Danzo remembered that after Kakashi graduated early, the most famous person in the ninja school was Asuma, the son of the Third Hokage. The Third Hokage couldn't allow his son to join the Root, right?

The Third Hokage glanced at Danzo speechlessly. He thought he would throw his son to the Root. What was this guy dreaming about?
"I'm not talking about Asuma. This time, the top student in the ninja school is an Uchiha, the special student Uchiha Touha!"

After hearing these five words from Uchiha Feiyu, Danzo's face showed obvious disdain:

"Uchiha Hiba? The idiot who joined the Uchiha later and entered the ninja school at the age of ten? How could the Root want such a person!"

"Do we want him to come to our roots and preach how to do less and get more, run away and corrupt the morale?!"

As Danzo spoke, his eyes widened, and he almost cursed. The Third Hokage didn't expect that Danzo also knew about Uchiha Feiyu, and he said with some depression:
"Don't say that... Although his personality isn't very good, he still has great potential... And maybe the Root can also change his personality..."

"Hehe, his parents are dead and his Sharingan hasn't even advanced. Not to mention his potential, with such a personality, we can't transform it with our roots!"

Although the Root will conduct brainwashing training, the targets are ninjas with character flaws, or children who have been trained since childhood. If the ninjas already have complete values, the Root's brainwashing training will be useless.

Among them, hot-blooded men like Might Guy and bad-tempered boys like Uchiha Toba are characters that cannot be brainwashed at all. Not to mention the hot-blooded men, the bad-tempered boys don't even care about their parents, so there's no way to brainwash them!
Sarutobi Hiruzen twitched the corners of his mouth. To be honest, his understanding of Uchiha Hiwa came from his youngest son Asuma. It was because Asuma muttered every day that he paid a little attention to Uchiha Hiwa, the oddball in the Ninja Academy.

The Third Hokage had nothing to say about this Uchiha's character, but there were so many psychopaths among the Uchiha, and the appearance of such a normal guy who didn't even look like a ninja still left a deep impression on the Third Hokage.

Originally, he wanted to throw this guy to Danzo's base, at least to appease Danzo. Unfortunately, Danzo somehow found out about Uchiha Feiyu's background, which completely ruined the Third Hokage's plan.

No, how did Danzo know about Uchiha Hiha? And he also knew that his parents were dead and his Sharingan hadn't even been upgraded?
These thoughts flashed through the mind of the Third Hokage, but a mere Uchiha, and not even a core Uchiha at that, was not that important to the Third Hokage. Even though he knew there was something fishy going on, he had no intention of caring.

"Well, since you don't want to choose, forget it. At most I can give you ten more places to supplement the roots. Kakashi, don't even think about it!"

"Huruzen, if you indulge Kakashi like this, he will definitely..."

"I won't regret it!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen coldly interrupted Danzo's words and waved his hand:
"If you have nothing else to do, you can leave right now! Now that the Third Shinobi World War is about to begin, do you and your Root have nothing to do?"

Danzo: "..."

I'm so angry! Sarutobi Hiruzen always answers first!

When Danzo left the Hokage's office, the Third Hokage picked up Uchiha Toba's materials with some distress:
"Where should this troublesome guy be assigned?"

"Well, hasn't Asuma been shouting that he wants to defeat this Uchiha Feiyu? Just put them together!" There is another point that the Third Hokage knew but did not say - with the personality of this Uchiha Feiyu, there is obviously no need to worry about him getting too excited and encountering any danger.

As his own son, at least when he was still a young Genin, it was impossible for him to be assigned to a dangerous mission where he would risk his life.

It's just that Asuma is a rebellious guy, and many ninja missions are not absolutely safe. In order to prevent him from being too impulsive, having a ninja who believes in safety first by his side can also serve as a guarantee.

So the next morning, Uchiha Feiyu discovered that his ninja team companions were Asuma and Yuhi Kurenai.

"Uchiha Feiyu, I didn't expect to be assigned to the same team as you this time! This is good, I will slowly surpass you in the future!"

"Ah, that's right! I believe that a useless Uchiha like me will be surpassed by you in less than two years."

"You are just trying to fool me again! Do you think I'm easy to deal with?"

Facing Asuma who was red with anger, Uchiha Feiyu chatted with him in a casual manner. Yuhi Kurenai next to him looked at the calm Uchiha Feiyu and the jumping Asuma, and chuckled with her hand covering her mouth.

However, Uchiha Feiyu was still a little surprised. Although he was now the first in the grade, considering that he was only thirteen or fourteen years old, other ninjas might not recognize his potential. He did not expect that he would be assigned to the same group with Asuma this time.

However, there are also advantages to being grouped together with the Hokage's youngest son. At least I don't have to worry about performing some cannon fodder missions.

On the surface, the Third Hokage might not necessarily take extra care of his youngest son, but no matter who it was, no one would dare to let Asuma go on such a dangerous mission that would involve life and death.

Of course, there has never been absolute safety in the ninja world. Even the Hokage can die, let alone the Hokage's son. But no matter what, Uchiha Toba and Asuma are a team, so the safety factor is greatly improved.

"Asuma, stop arguing. And Feiyu, stop teasing Asuma! Do you two know who our teacher is?"

After hearing Hong's words, Uchiha Feiyu shook his head directly:
"I don't know. Asuma, you should be more informed. Do you know who our team leader is?"

Asuma raised his head high and said arrogantly:

"Do you think I'm the kind of person who would ask for secrets just because I'm the Hokage's son?"

"so what?"

"Uh...I don't know who the teacher is either!"

Uchiha Feiyu rolled his eyes, put his hands behind his head, and crossed one foot:

"Well, it doesn't matter to me anyway. The leader teacher won't be an Uchiha, and he probably won't be able to teach me anything."

"You two have family-inherited ninjutsu, so you don't need to think about learning anything from the leader."
