22 Chapter 21

Konoha Ninja School, Principal's Office.

If someone was here, they would see a ridiculous scene. They would see the highest leader of Konoha Ninja Village. The third generation of Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, and a kid from Ninja academy staring at each other.

"Old man, you...what's the matter with you? Why do you bother me, and don't let me sleep?"

Youyu looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen with a dissatisfied look and asked.

"Forget it, forget it, I don't need to be angry at a little alcoholic?" Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Youyu with a somewhat helpless look. He felt very helpless right now.

The most powerful genius of Konoha's younger generation turned out to be this kid! Only, if Youyu didn't drink, it would be great.

After calming down, Sarutobi Hiruzen patiently introduced Youyu again.

"So, you are the third generation of Hokage." Sarutobi Hiruzen heard Youyu's words and was immediately relieved. This brat finally understands the greatness of being Hokage, right?

But next Youyu's words almost angered him to death.

"The one who peaks in the women's bath with a crystal ball?"

"puff!!!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen almost bit his tongue.

"What are you talking about kid, don't talk nonsense!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly felt that his whole body was trembling. This was his private matter how did Youyu know about it?!

"Youyu, who told you about this?" Sarutobi licked the corner of his mouth and asked.

"It seems... the last time I bought wine in a bar, I heard a white-haired guy... said that?" Youyu tilted his head and said uncertainly.

"Jiraiya!!!"

Sarutobi grinded his teeth to pieces. My bastard disciple, dare to talk nonsense everywhere!

"Ah, Youyu, that guy is talking nonsense. As a third-generation Hokage, how could I do such a thing?"

Sarutobi gave a dry cough and explained.

"Stop talking about this, can I ask you some questions?"

Sarutobi saw Youyu was about to say something, and immediately interrupted him. Sarutobi was afraid that his heart could not stand it if Youyu embarrassed him anymore.

"Well, you can ask."

Youyu's expression on his face made people feel helpless.

"Do you love this village?" Sarutobi said, looking at Youyu expectantly.

"Of course!" Youyu said affirmatively.

'There are wine and meat here, and you can chop people. Can you not love it?' Youyu thought.

Sarutobi smiled with satisfaction. The drunk people usually tell the truth and children also tell the truth very often so there was no way a drunk child would lie about something right?

"Well, Yu, there is one thing in the village that needs your help."

Sarutobi looked at Youyu who was a little dangling, and the corner of his mouth twitched. But he still spoke out his purpose of looking for Youyu this time.

.......

"Chunin exam?"

After Sarutobi finished speaking, Yuu blinked.

"Yeah, Yuu, I will tell you..."

"No, I won't go!"

Before Sarutobi could finish speaking, Youyu said with a look of disgust.

"Uh, why, why?"

Sarutobi's expression instantly froze on his face.

"It's too much trouble so I won't go."

Youyu was a little drunk, but he didn't become stupid.

"Youyu, now the village can be said to be in danger, and you don't want your beloved Konoha to have an accident, do you?..."

Sarutobi began to admonish with all his heart. He had already sent the invitation letter to several big Shinobi villages. At this time if Youyu doesn't participate, he would lose his face.

Sarutobi had planned to use this event to show other villages how powerful Konoha was. Usually, the exam was held between the allies but this time he had invited all the big villages that were not so friendly towards Konoha.

This was what Sarutobi advocated. Because the recent situation was very unstable. If there was some dispute then the villages would not talk about it. They would start a war and Hiruzen wanted to threaten them by showing Konoha's power.

Even the Village Hidden Fog, which did not participate in the Second Ninja World War, began frequent activities. This made Sarutobi full of worries.

Konoha was in the fire country with the most abundant resources. But at the same time, it was also at the very center and surrounded by the other four powers.

Whether it's the first Ninja World War or the second Ninja World War. Konoha faced a situation where more than one village attacked them at the same time.

Now, shortly after the end of the Second Ninja War, Konoha suffered a huge loss.

Many capable shinobi died during or after the war, Dan Kato lover of Tsunade, and also a very capable ninja died during the war, Kakashi's father Hatake Sakumo died. The heir of the Senju clan Nawaki died during the war.

Tsunade was also traumatized after the death of her lover and her brother. It could be said that Konoha's strength was much worse than before in the eyes of outsiders.

So Sarutobi is eager to show Konoha's power and the Chunin exam was the best opportunity! As the cradle of genius, Konoha Village. Countless geniuses were born here.

Currently, Kakashi was also one of the top talents! But when Kakashi is facing Youyu, he can't fight back.

Sarutobi did not doubt that Youyu could crush the opponents from the other ninja village easily. And that would let the major ninja villages see the strength of Konoha's new generation and converge some actions.

This was the reason why Sarutobi invited other ninja villages that were not allied to come to Konoha to take the chunin exam!
