Chapter 22

Konoha Ninja School, Principal's Office.

'How, how can this brat say no to my face multiple times without any respect or fear.'

Sarutobi started looking at Youyu somewhat helplessly. He tried to make Youyu understand his thought process and move his emotion he was using his talk-no-Jutsu to the maximum but Youyu replied in 3 words.

"I won't go!

If Sarutobi tried his best to convince someone he could definitely make them believe him and do as he says. But in the face of a drunk person, sensationalism was useless. How could intimidation work on a drunk person especially on Youyu who didn't seem to be afraid of anything?

He cut up his teacher when he was 6 years old. Do you think someone who could be intimated would do that?

Sarutobi's eyes rolled, sensational is not good and so is intimidation, then what about lure?

"Ahem, Youyu, as long as you take this Chunin exam and win honor for Konoha, I have a bottle of good wine that can be given to you." Sarutobi coughed dryly and said.

He wanted to make Youyu quit drinking before but seeing that he couldn't even convince him to take part in the Chunin exam he forgot about making him quit drinking.

"Huh? Really?"

Sure enough, Sarutobi saw Youyu's eyes lit up.

When Sarutobi was a little proud, YouYu almost choked him to death in a sentence.

"Okay, I'm going to take the test, you give me a house full of good wine!" Youyu's eyes lit up and he patted the table and said.

'Youyu are you deaf!'

Sarutobi's eyes twitched. When he said he was going to give YouYu good wine he obviously meant a bottle! The reason he said only a bottle because good wine was expensive. Although he was the third generation of Hokage, but he didn't have too much private money.

If he had to buy a house full of good wine then...

"Youyu, I'm talking about a bottle, a good bottle of wine, you got it wrong." Sarutobi helplessly explained.

"Old man, you...you're bad! You definitely said a house full of good wine, I have been drinking for decades. I have never heard anything wrong after drinking, you are a liar so I won't go to the exam!"

When Youyu heard this, he was immediately annoyed.

And When Sarutobi heard Youyu he also became annoyed.

'You have drunk wine for decades? Even if you started drinking from your mother's womb that's only 9 years even saying you have been drinking for 8 years would be a stretch.'

Sarutobi helplessly rubbed his face.

"Okay! As long as you get the first place in the Chunin exam! I will give you a house full of good wine!"

Sarutobi looked at Youyu and understood that it was impossible not to bleed. He gritted his teeth and said.

"Deal! Come on, let's make a pinky promise!"

Youyu's somewhat drunk face was full of seriousness right now.

"A liar must swallow a thousand needles!"

Sarutobi felt that his entire face was burning up due to embarrassment but in the end, he agrees with Youyu, and accompanies Youyu to complete this "contract".

"Okay, then...then you prepare the wine ready, I promise to cut all those who come to take the exam!"

Youyu patted his chest and said confidently.

"Ok, ok do your best!"

Sarutobi was originally relieved, but when he heard Yuu's words, he suddenly became nervous again.

'How can I forget about this! Knowing Youyu, it was very likely that he will the opponent is an enemy and will probably try to kill them. Kakashi and the others are bloody examples!

If Yuyu cut off Konoha's people during the exam. Not only will he not reveal Konoha's strength to the outside world, but he became a laughingstock!

"Well, Yuu, can you stop drinking during the exams?" Sarutobi bitterly persuaded.

"Don't drink? How many days?.... No, I won't take the exams then!!!"

As soon as you heard it, he turned around and left.

"Wait…wait!"

Sarutobi quickly grabbed Youyu, his face full of helplessness. If others were like this, he would have been angry as Hokage.

But for this kid who he named himself and because of one of his wrong decision, he also made him an orphan so he couldn't get angry at him.

'Maybe if he had a family he wouldn't go down this path.' Sarutobi sometimes thinks that way.

"Okay, I will let you drink! But even if you are drunk, you have to recognize Konoha's people so that you can't accidentally hurt the villagers."

Sarutobi said helplessly.

"That's it?" Youyu said disdainfully.

.......

After an hour.

"What is this?"

Sarutobi took out a random sign and asked.

"This, this, is... Konoha, right?" Youyu slapped his chest and said confidently. Didn't you just show me the same sigh before?! How come I have recognized it for half an hour and you still keep showing me the same sign and ask me what sigh it is!!!"

Sarutobi almost collapsed. Considering that Youyu might drink too much during the exam, Sarutobi just gave Youyu a few more bottles of wine to drink and he tried to check his memory. After all, as Hokage, he must consider all possibilities.

As a result... It took Youyu half an hour to learn a single sign, but he still couldn't recognize it!

"No, I have to think of a way, otherwise Youyu will really kill his own people."

Sarutobi frowned and started thinking hard.
