Konoha Year 44, early July.
In front of the main gate of Konoha Village.
Hundreds of civilians and ninjas gathered here to welcome the hero who returned from the war in the Land of Rain.
It has been half a month since the end of the third shinobi war, the battlefield was cleaned up, and the wounded were escorted back to Konoha ahead of time.
At the front of the line to welcome the hero was, of course, the Hokage Hizane and Danzo, the elder of Konoha. Masahiko didn't use his original identity, but with the appearance of a Taobao shop owner, he stood in the crowd with the young apprentice Obito and his daughter Sara.
The leader of the ninja troops was Kuroto, followed by a group of Jonin led by Orochimaru, followed by a large number of Chunin and Genin, including the newly promoted Chunin who got the "experience ticket".
"Jiraiya is not here? Where did he go? "Masahiko shook his head with a smile, he had some guesses in his heart, but he was also a little disappointed.
He actually wanted to see what kind of exaggerated actions Jiraiya would make under the cheers of the crowd. As for Orochimaru, his snake-like face was really boring.
Kuroto didn't know whether it was an illusion or not, but he felt that Orochimaru was giving him a slightly strange feeling.
"Did he come into contact with human experiments?" Masahiko guessed.
Beside him, the fighting spirit of the Obito was almost ignited, and Masahiko saw that his eyes were firmly focused on Guy. It is worth mentioning that in the previous Chunin Exam, the Obito was defeated by Guy.
But it was a blessing in disguise, he successfully opened the Double Magatama Sharingan and was full of confidence, so he wanted to "wash away the shame."
Not to mention Guy, if it wasn't for Shuo Mao and Kakashi experimenting with prosthetics in the Land of Whirlpools, the Obito would have already gone to the Land of Whirlpools.
The ninja troops accepted the cheers at the gate of Konoha for a while, and endured the baptism of the "Will of Fire" of Hyuga for a few minutes, then disbanded and went back to their families.
"Okay, there's no more excitement, let's go back." Masahiko said.
The expression of the Obito was very strange, it was a mixture of fear, anxiety, and expectation.
"Hey, Sensei, did you see … Rein?" the Obito asked.
Masahiko froze for a moment, and immediately reacted with a sad expression. "I didn't see her, I'm afraid … War!"
On the side, Sara covered her mouth in surprise.
Tears immediately welled up in Obito's eyes. "Impossible! The Obito must have missed it! "
"Obito, accept the truth. I'm also sorry about Rein … "
"
As the masked man spoke, he was about to rush out, but Masahiko stopped him.
"You've just activated two Magatama. So this method really can't help you activate three Magatama?" Masahiko sighed.
The masked man was stunned for a while, not understanding what was going on.
Sarah dropped her hand from her mouth, unable to hide the smile on her face.
"Father, you're bullying me again. Didn't Lin come back a few days ago?"
Sensei of the Obito, Masof Masin, and Reof Mas. Masa Masof Clan, I said, I didn't see., I, I, and of. of.
Looking at the confused Obito, Masahiko continued, "Did you see any wounded in the team just now? How can there be no casualties in Konoha, but for some reason, perhaps to reassure the civilians, in order to not let them know the specific number of casualties, the wounded were secretly sent to Konoha Hospital. Reof, as a Medical Ninja, came back a few days ago and has been busy in the hospital. "
The Obito glared at Masahiko and ran to Konoha Hospital.
"Sensei, the Obito seems to be angry."
Masahiko touched his chin. "It seems a bit too much, but I'm doing it for his own good. Without some stimulation, how can he open three Magatama, let alone Mangekyou … "
…
…
Time flew, and another week passed.
The Obito's anger came and went quickly. At this time, he was in front of Masahiko, talking about the recent events in Konoha.
"Sensei, you don't know how surprised the uncles in the clan were when they learned that I opened my Tenseigan, and directly opened two Magatama …"
"That guy Guy is really strong, after I opened my Tenseigan, I was just able to tie with him. But I have begun to learn some advanced Fire Release ninjutsu, and soon I will surpass him … When Kakashi comes back, I will also teach him a good lesson! "
…
Masahiko listened to the various bragging of the Obito with a blank expression, feeling helpless in his heart. Fortunately, he didn't open three Magatama, otherwise, wouldn't he be able to go to heaven?
"Sensei, do you know? Both Tsunade -sama and Orochimaru-Sama are going to accept disciples, and Reof has been preparing for this for the past few days. "
These words caused Masahiko to be stunned for a moment, and he had some reaction.
"Why don't you go?" Masahiko said with a smile.
The Obito and Minato are only master and disciple in the team, so it won't hinder him from accepting other teachers.
The Obito looked around and whispered, "Sensei, don't you think Orochimaru-Sama is a bit … difficult to get along with?"
"At least you're not confused."
The Obito worshipping Orochimaru as his teacher, that would be a big joke.
However, Masahiko was a little concerned about this matter. If everything went according to plan, this could bring him some points of observation.
In the next few days, Masahiko personally participated in the disciple selection of Tsunade and Orochimaru.
Tsunade's disciple selection is very formal, it is simply a medical ninja test under the age of 15. After layers of screening, and with a little help from Masahiko, Tsunade made an exception and chose two disciples, Harano Lin and Shuriken.
Lin is more inclined towards medical and monstrous strength, while Shuriken is more inclined towards poison and detoxification.
"Monstrous strength Lin?" Masahiko couldn't imagine what it would look like, but he still silently said in his heart, "Obito, good luck to you."
After that, from Orochimaru, Masahiko also received a piece of news that made him slightly concerned.
"You said that Jiraiya accepted a disciple in the Land of Rain?"
Seeing Orochimaru nodded to confirm, Masahiko pondered for a moment, "It's the Land of Rain, how can it be so coincidental."
"That idiot, who knows what he is thinking, although his new disciple has some foundation in ninjutsu, he is not young anymore." Orochimaru showed a playful smile.
Masahiko no longer cared about the matter of Jiraiya accepting a disciple, but frowned and glanced at Orochimaru who had a strange expression on his face, "Human experiments or whatever, it's better not to touch them."
Orochimaru nodded and didn't deny it, "I know, Senpai."
After that, Orochimaru began to choose a disciple, completely different from Tsunade, there was no assessment, and he didn't even look at the candidates in person.
Coming to Hizen, Orochimaru simply looked through a few pages of the list, and his eyes focused on a name.
"Her, Sensei."
Hizen had a slight headache, "Are you sure you don't want to take an assessment?"
"No."
"Well, it's settled then, this child's name is Mitarai Anko."
Masahiko gained another 10 Witness Points from this selection, but he always felt a little incongruous in his heart.
"Tsunade's disciple selection is good, after all, there are many layers of selection. Orochimaru, why does it seem like a joke … But this is quite in line with his character. "
