Chapter 46: Promotion to Jonin

The Jinchuriki of Kumogakure Ninja has already appeared, so naturally, Konohagakure no longer needs to pursue. If they continue to chase, they are likely to be annihilated by the opponent's Jinchuriki. After all, the power of a Tailed Beast is not to be underestimated, let alone the Eight-Tails.

"So that's a Tailed Beast? The chakra in its body is really terrifying."

Satoru naturally also noticed the terrifying chakra contained in the Eight-Tails inside Killer Bee. Compared with the opponent, Satoru's own chakra is like the difference between a river and the sea. Satoru feels that even if he drains all the cells in his body, he will not have such terrifying chakra.

"How terrifying would the strongest Nine-Tails among the Tailed Beasts be?"

Although Satoru has been living in Konohagakure Village for ten years, he has never seen the Jinchuriki of the Nine-Tails. He doesn't know whether the village is watching Kushina too closely, or whether he just happens to miss it every time.

"Everyone rest in place, medical ninjas quickly heal the wounded, stop the bleeding."

After the people of Kumogakure Ninja completely disappeared, the ninjas of Konohagakure also began to act quickly.

"Well done, Satoru."

At this time, Orochimaru suddenly came to Satoru and said with a smile.

"I didn't expect that everyone in the village underestimated you. Even the title of genius can't match your current strength. It's really worthy of being the son of White Fang, like father like son."

"Thank you for your praise, Orochimaru-sama."

"I will report this battle truthfully to the Third Hokage, especially your military exploits, which are definitely the most prominent in this battle. I guess you will soon be the youngest Jonin in the history of Konohagakure Village."

"Thank you, Orochimaru-sama."

"Keep up the good work, I have high hopes for you."

After that, Orochimaru turned and left, seeming to be discussing the next strategy with other Jonin, and seemed to be writing a summary report of this battle.

"I didn't expect your strength to be so strong, Satoru. The gap between us is getting bigger and bigger."

Masahiro walked to Satoru's side and said with a lost face.

He and Satoru are teammates, but now the gap is like people from two worlds.

Now, all the Konohagakure ninjas on the scene, looking at Satoru, are full of respect.

"You don't want to target me, otherwise you will die of exhaustion and can't catch up. After all, I will be the strongest in the future."

Satoru's face showed a beatable smile, but this time Masahiro unusually did not get angry at Satoru.

"I may not be able to help you with future tasks, Satoru. If there really is a day of separation, you must take good care of yourself."

Masahiro's tone was somewhat sad. He knew that in this battle, Satoru showed such a strong strength, he will definitely be reused, and will not become cannon fodder like them.

"Haha, it's like life and death. But you, don't end up seeing your name on the Hero Monument when the war is over."

"How could it be possible, I won't die on the battlefield so easily, I haven't gotten married and had children yet."

What Masahiro didn't notice was that other Konohagakure ninjas also had a hint of envy in their eyes when they looked at him. After all, not everyone is qualified to talk to Satoru so happily.

Soon, the report and results of this battle were sent back to Konohagakure Village by Orochimaru through a secret technique.

When the Third Hokage opened a scroll spit out from the mouth of a white snake, he was greatly shocked by the content above.

"Does the child of White Fang actually possess a secret technique that can eliminate most of the enemies in an instant?"

"This is something that White Fang has never used before, could it be that child's Kekkei Genkai?"

If it were in the past, the Third Hokage would definitely call Satoru back for questioning, but there is no time now.

"Promote Hatake Satoru to Jonin, and give him the qualification to lead a ninja squad."

Soon, the Third Hokage finished writing Satoru's reward, and then stuffed it back into the mouth of the little white snake.

Now in the war, as long as it is talent, it will definitely be reused, and the war is also an opportunity for civilian ninjas to enter the upper ranks.

"But did Kumogakure actually send out the Tailed Beast? In this case, perhaps Minato should go to the battlefield with Land of Thunder."

The most effective way to deal with the enemy's Tailed Beast is to also send out the Tailed Beast from our side. But if Konohagakure's Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is to leave the village, let alone whether others will let it, just Namikaze Minato will not let it.

But now in Konohagakure Village, no one has the ability to confront the Tailed Beast head-on. Even the Third Hokage can't do it. He can only use the sealing technique to seal the opponent.

But the sealing technique that can seal the Tailed Beast often requires a huge price.

"I hope Kumogakure won't go too far."

If Kumogakure really throws the Tailed Beast into a large-scale battlefield, then the Third Hokage will definitely send out all the top combat power of Konohagakure to capture the opponent's Tailed Beast.

Soon after, Orochimaru also received the reply from the Third Hokage. After taking a look, his face showed an expression of "as expected".

"Hatake Satoru, now I will promote you to Jonin, and give you the qualification to lead a squad, I hope you will not let the Third Hokage down."

Orochimaru directly announced the promotion of Hatake Satoru in front of everyone, but none of the Konohagakure ninjas present were unconvinced. After all, the strength Satoru just showed has completely subdued them.

"Thank you, Orochimaru-sama, I will definitely not let Hokage-sama down."

At this time, the expression on Hatake Satoru's face was still very serious and serious.

And he can't let so many people who respect him be disappointed now. At this moment, Satoru may understand his father's feelings a bit.

Let everyone in the village who respects you feel disappointed in you, how lost and desperate that feeling would be, people who have not experienced this feeling may never know.

"Rest for half an hour, then set off, we are going to station on the border of Land of Hot Water.

Hatake Satoru, come here, I have a task for you."

Orochimaru looked at Hatake Satoru and said.

"Orochimaru-sama, I don't know what the task is?"

In the temporary tent, Satoru asked Orochimaru.

"I need you to lead a ninja squad, directly raid the rear of the Kumogakure Ninja troops, if possible, cut off their rear supply line, then we have already won half of this war.

Of course, you also have the right to refuse. If you are discovered, then you are likely to fall into a heavy encirclement. At that time, you may not even have the chance to escape, you have to think about it."

"Heh, isn't such a challenging task more interesting?"

"I know."

Hearing Satoru's words, Orochimaru knew that Satoru had already taken on this task. Although Satoru's words were a bit arrogant, they did not disgust Orochimaru.
