Chapter 25: Namikaze Minato Takes a Disciple

Easily, with just Taijutsu, Satoru had instantly killed these three people. They didn't even have time to react. When they came to their senses, they found that Satoru had tied them up tightly.

"Alright, mission accomplished."

Satoru clapped his hands, smiling.

What everyone failed to notice was that within this dense thicket, a small white snake was quickly disappearing.

This little white snake eventually crawled to the second proctor, Orochimaru. Looking into the eyes of the little white snake, Orochimaru seemed to have seen the battle scene just now.

After a while, Orochimaru's face showed a meaningful smile.

"Even after taking a direct hit from the Great Fireball Technique, you're unscathed. It seems there are many secrets on your body worth exploring, Satoru."

Orochimaru muttered to himself. Satoru was completely unaware that he had been targeted by a dangerous figure, after all, Orochimaru was someone Satoru should pay some attention to.

After all, his Limitless Technique has no way to resist toxins. If he really gets poisoned, he would find it very troublesome.

"Sakumo, what's going on?"

The Third Hokage asked Hatake Sakumo. Namikaze Minato and Jiraiya also showed curious expressions. All of them could survive unscathed in the Great Fireball Technique.

But most of them rely on their own strong physical fitness, or rely on their own speed to dodge, otherwise they use substitution techniques and other Ninjutsu. But Satoru didn't do anything just now.

"This is Satoru's Kekkei Genkai. Although I don't understand it, I only know that if Satoru doesn't want to get hurt, then no one can hurt him."

"Sakumo, you're not joking, are you?"

Jiraiya spoke directly. But when he saw Hatake Sakumo's serious expression, he knew that what he had just said might be true.

"Are you sure, Sakumo?"

The Third Hokage also asked seriously. If this is the case, isn't Hatake Satoru's Kekkei Genkai a bit too terrifying? This is absolute defense.

"Yes, and Satoru's Kekkei Genkai is not just this ability. According to him, there are many abilities that have not been developed. But I won't say more, after all, this is Satoru's secret."

Sakumo telling these things to the Third Hokage is already a great loyalty to Konohagakure. After all, this can be said to have revealed a big part of Satoru's trump card.

"It seems Sakumo, you really have provided two pillars of talent for the village."

The Third Hokage said with a gratified expression, but his heart was also a bit heavy.

Now that Namikaze Minato has mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique, in a few years, when Minato's strength grows a bit more, Sarutobi Hiruzen plans to choose the next Hokage between his disciple Orochimaru and his grand-disciple Namikaze Minato. But looking at it now, Hatake Sakumo also has the ability to run for Hokage.

"No no, it's my honor to contribute to the village."

Hatake Sakumo said modestly.

"Hokage-sama, Sakumo-sama, I hope to take Kakashi as my disciple."

At this moment, Namikaze Minato suddenly spoke.

"Hmm?"

The three people present all looked at Namikaze Minato with curious eyes.

"Why? But no matter how you look at it, big brother Hatake Satoru's talent is superior."

Jiraiya looked at his own disciple and asked in confusion.

Although they had just seen Kakashi effortlessly deal with a giant python, among all the graduates, Kakashi is definitely a unique genius. But it is clear that Satoru, who has Kekkei Genkai, is stronger.

"Indeed, Hatake Satoru's talent might be stronger, but after all, he has Kekkei Genkai. In this regard, I have no experience, so I'm not sure I can provide useful guidance to Satoru.

So I think Kakashi is more suitable for me, and I see my past self in Kakashi."

"Being a genius as well, perhaps Kakashi is best taught by you."

The Third Hokage nodded, and if Sakumo's child was really given to Minato, then Kakashi might play a huge role in the competition for Hokage.

"What do you think, Sakumo?"

The Third Hokage asked Sakumo for his opinion again. After all, Kakashi is not a civilian ninja, he has Hatake Sakumo as a backer. If Sakumo is not satisfied, even if he is the Third Hokage, he cannot force it.

"I can, I trust Minato very much."

Although Hatake Sakumo has had fewer dealings with Minato, he has heard many rumors about Namikaze Minato.

He has been a genius since he was a child, and once rescued the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki from the hands of Kumogakure Ninja. It is said that at that time, Minato was only a Chunin, but he easily defeated three Jonin from Kumogakure Ninja.

The most important thing is that he mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique created by the Second Hokage-sama.

So handing Kakashi over to him, Hatake Sakumo is very relieved.

"Thank you for your trust, Sakumo-sama, I will definitely train Kakashi into an excellent ninja."

Namikaze Minato bowed seriously to Hatake Sakumo.

"Yes, but Minato, there's no rush for this. After all, to form a team, we still need two more Genin, and now there are few Genin qualified to team up with Kakashi."

The Third Hokage has also heard about Kakashi joining some teams. He thinks his teammates are all burdens. When performing tasks, most of them like to act alone.

"You can take Kakashi to perform some tasks first. As for his teammates, let's see if there are any good seedlings among the students who graduated from the Ninja academy in the past few years."

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

Hatake Sakumo had no objections.

And in the Forest of Death of the Chunin Exam, Kakashi, after resting for a while after dealing with the giant python, successfully reached the central tower and was the first to arrive.

Afterwards, the second and third places also arrived one after another. Looking at each of them, they all had more or less some injuries. Obviously, on the way here, they all experienced tough battles, and many people even experienced more than one battle.

"Hasn't he arrived yet?"

Kakashi frowned, there were only three spots left.

But just then, a noisy sound came from a distance.

"Satoru, it's all your fault, insisting on having a picnic. If we don't make it this time, I'll make you pay."

As soon as Kakashi heard this, he knew whose voice it was. It was Satoru's teammate, Masahiro's voice.

"But didn't you also eat ravenously?"

"If you didn't make barbecue, I wouldn't eat"

The sound of their argument was getting closer and closer, and the first few people who arrived had already turned somewhat dark. What did they hear? There was actually a team having a picnic?

Is the gap between people really that big?
