Chapter 15: The Hatake clan's swordsmanship!

At this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the white clouds in the sky.

Time flies, and the white horse of youth passes quickly...

Unknowingly, he had already become the Third Hokage of Konoha.

He still remembered graduating from the ninja academy not long ago.

Suddenly, he had advanced from a genin, to a chunin, to a jonin, and finally to his current position.

As he lamented the passage of time, the door opened with a "click" and someone walked in.

Seeing the familiar white hair before him, the Third Hokage smiled and asked, "So, how are those three children's talents? They should be satisfactory to you, right...?"

Hatake Sakumo rubbed his head and said with a helpless expression, "Their talents are indeed good, but unfortunately, all three brats are problematic..."

"They are more difficult to deal with than each other, especially that kid named Chiba Seishi, who looks the most mature... He is quite young but has a deep mind..."

He glanced at Sarutobi Sasuke resentfully.

You know, with his personality, he would rather go to the front line to kill enemies. This is much better than being a babysitting teacher for these brats.

The Third Hokage shook his head and said with a smile, "I know about Seishi's situation from Teacher Tobirama. Don't worry, although he is a bit precocious, he has a good heart..."

"After all, his parents have been gone since he was young, and he has been taking care of himself. It is normal for him to be a little more mature in his dealings with people..."

Seeing the cut on the hem of Sakumo's clothes, the Third Hokage continued, "So, how about the strength of these three children? It should be good, right...?"

Sakumo nodded, "Yes, it is quite good. Uchiha Qi's Sharingan has already unlocked one tomoe, and Hyuga Tenzou's Byakugan is also being used well. His gentle fist is also well utilized. Except for a lack of real combat experience, he is quite outstanding..."

This did not exceed his expectations. After all, when these three people were assigned to Hatake Sakumo, he had already read their information.

At this point, Sakumo paused again, with a strange expression on his face, "But what surprised me the most was the brat named Chiba Seishi..."

He raised his eyebrows, bit his lip, and seemed to be thinking about how to describe it to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Of the three people, the only one I can't see through is this kid. His current strength has surpassed Uchiha Qi and Hyuga Tenzou... But I think he still has something reserved for me..."

Seeing Sakumo's puzzled expression, the Third Hokage said with a smile, "Okay, don't worry too much about this. It seems that Seishi's awakened blood limit is a new ability that has not appeared in the ninja world before..."

"It seems to be related to speed... Besides, the stronger they are, the more it shows that our education in Konoha is better... They represent the future of Konoha..."

In the Third Hokage's view, although Chiba Seishi was extremely talented, he was still just an eleven-year-old child...

"That little devil... his speed is already so fast that it's a bit abnormal..."

Thought Sakumo in his heart.

But since the Third Hokage has already said so, he naturally wouldn't be entangled in these issues.

"By the way, pay attention recently, if necessary, you may need to go out and perform missions at any time..."

After saying this sentence, he sighed.

"The storm is coming..."

The First Shinobi War has only recently ended, and it has been peaceful for a few years. Now the situation in the Shinobi world is becoming chaotic again.

"As long as the village needs it, I can leave at any time!"

Sakumo nodded solemnly.

He also knew that recently Amegakure seemed to be restless and seemed to want to start a new war.

"What do you think about me letting Chiba Seishi and his team participate in the Chunin exams with Tsunade and her team?"

Suddenly, the Third Hokage said to him.

After pondering for a while, Sakumo spoke, "I think the strength of the three members of team Hatake have reached the level of a Chunin, so there should be no problem participating in this exam..."

"If that's the case, then I will directly report the outstanding graduates of this year to participate in the exam..."

"The Chunin exams are about to begin. If they don't participate, I really can't think of anyone particularly outstanding to participate..."

Thinking of this, the Third Hokage had a headache.

The First Shinobi World War actually overdrafted the potential of the village.

After Sakumo, there was a phenomenon of insufficient young talents in the village.

Although some outstanding talents have also appeared, there is no one like Sakumo who can make the entire Shinobi world speechless.

On the surface, this Chunin exam is just an ordinary exam held by various villages.

But in fact, it is to demonstrate the power behind each Ninja village.

For the students of Chiba Seishi's team, the Third Hokage believed that there was no one more outstanding than them.

So this time he's preparing to let Chiba Seishi and them go on stage and let the other ninja villages have a good look.

Konoha is still the largest village in the ninja world!

"You can ask their opinions later, don't force these little guys. If they want to go, let them go. If they don't want to, then forget it..."

"After all, they have just graduated from the ninja school. It may be a bit too much to let them participate in the Chuunin Exams now..."

...

"Okay, I'll tell Seishi and them. If they don't want to participate, I won't force them either..."

After saying this, Hatake Sakumo turned around and left.

At this moment, Chiba Seishi was still practicing in school.

Until he saw that the sky was gradually darkening, he turned around and prepared to go back.

"You kid, keep going...!"

Suddenly, a scroll was thrown at him.

He raised his left hand and caught it steadily.

"I see that you have such a good knife, but you don't seem to know any swordsmanship. It's really a waste..."

"This is my practice on swordsmanship over the years. Except for some core moves of the Hatake family that I cannot pass on to you, I have written everything else on it..."

Hatake Sakumo stood with his hands on his shoulders and said.

As early as during the day, he had realized that Chiba Seishi knew nothing about swordsmanship.

What he relied on was his magical blood limit and his fighting instinct when wielding a sword.

In fact, his actual skill was extremely poor.

After listening to his words, Chiba Seishi's eyes lit up.

He was just thinking of asking Hatake Sakumo to teach him his swordsmanship in a few days, but he didn't expect that he would directly give it to him.
