Konoha's Strongest Technician

Five days later, Konoha Ninja Village, Hokage's office.

"Hokage-sama, this is the mission report."

Minato bowed respectfully to the third generation sitting behind the desk and handed over the report recording the investigation results of the Loulan incident.

The report mainly talks about the causes and consequences of the Loulan incident, as well as the performance of Kakashi and others in it.

As for the parts related to Naruto and Yamato, there was no mention at all.

Because even Minato himself didn't remember that these two people had been here before.

"Well done, you performed very well and lived up to my expectations of you."

The third generation took the report, read it carefully, and nodded with satisfaction.

He has always been hesitant between Minato and Orochimaru regarding the position of Hokage.

Orochimaru is the most talented among his disciples, and he was also the most promising successor to Hokage.

But, since the end of World War II.

He then noticed that the aura of his beloved disciple became colder and colder, and his attitude towards life became more and more indifferent.

In fact, the relationship with him as a teacher has become increasingly estranged!

In the view of the Third Generation, the so-called Hokage must take the lead, worry about Konoha's worries first, and rejoice after Konoha's happiness.

And Orochimaru, who obviously doesn't care about the lives of the villagers, has gradually deviated from the will of fire that he values ​​most!

This reminded him of his old buddy, Danzo.

Perhaps, compared to succeeding Hokage, Orochimaru, who is getting closer to Danzo, is more suitable to succeed the position of root leader.

On the other hand, Minato is equally talented and has outstanding strength.

More importantly, he has had a Kage's mind since his days at Ninja School, and he often considers problems from the overall perspective.

Whether in life or when performing tasks.

They all show great enthusiasm for the villagers and companions, and are outstanding heirs to the Will of Fire!

Besides, Minato respects him enough.

He can also understand the principles he teaches on a daily basis very well.

If he were to succeed him as Hokage, he would be able to continue to exert his remaining talents while retiring with success.

After all, the development of the village is still inseparable from his guidance.

Even if you take a back seat, can you still use your position as an elder to continue to shine for the village?

"Hokage-sama?"

Minato, who had been waiting nearby, saw that the third generation didn't speak for a long time, so he reminded him softly.

"Oh?"

"Haha, as I get older, I get distracted easily."

"Minato, do you have anything else to do?"

The third generation's thoughts were interrupted by Minato.

He looked at Minato with a smile, and the more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became.

"That's it, Third Generation Master, combined with Kakashi's outstanding performance in missions."

"And the strength and keen combat awareness he displayed in battle."

"I would like to formally apply to you for Kakashi to be promoted to Jonin!"

Minato said seriously the purpose of his trip.

All along, in Konoha, I wanted to be directly promoted from chunin to jounin.

Not only must he have strong strength and make enough contributions to Konoha, but he also needs the recommendation of the village jounin.

After all, when you reach the level of Jonin, strength is one thing, and getting approval from your seniors is also extremely important.

Otherwise, if a powerful but evil-minded person serves as the leader of the team, it is likely to lay the foundation for the development of the village!

"Kakashi..."

"Well, yes, you can write a letter of recommendation and ask Kakashi to fill out an application form. I will help him personally."

The third generation thought for a moment before agreeing to Minato's proposal.

"Yes, Hokage-sama, I'll do it right now!"

Minato replied respectfully, with a hint of joy in his voice.

"Well, you go down first."

After hearing this, Minato exited the Hokage's office, gently closed the door, and directly used the Flying Thunder God to go to the Konoha training ground.

He knew that at this time, as long as he was not on a mission, Kakashi must be training!

On the other side, in the Konoha training ground, Kakashi looked at the blue Rasengan in his hand with a look of helplessness.

After his trip to Loulan was over, he discovered that the system prompt contained inexplicably the news that the Wind Release Spiral Shuriken had been successfully copied.

After being briefly surprised, he was familiar with the plot and quickly analyzed the origin of the technique.

What an unexpected surprise!

He has always been troubled by the topic of combining Chidori and Rasengan, and he has long wanted to refer to the implementation principle of Wind Release and Rasen Shuriken!

Kakashi, who had been excited all night, came to the training ground early the next morning, ready to savor the beauty of it.

However, when he excitedly used the Rasengan and wanted to upgrade it into the Wind Release Rasenshuriken so as to experience the transformation process personally, he discovered an embarrassing problem.

That is, without releasing the Yin seal.

Even if he exhausted all his chakra, he still couldn't use the Wind Release Spiral Shuriken!

Think about it, in the original work, when Naruto faced Pain's invasion, even if he mastered Sage Mode, he could only use it twice!

Taking into account Naruto's chaton pulling capacity and the tenfold increase in strength after turning on sage mode.

Kakashi feels that he is unlikely to use this move in the short term...

As for the Yin Seal, it is used to save lives in battle, and it cannot be used casually in such a place.

"Morning, Kakashi."

Just as Kakashi looked at the ball in his hand with a frustrated expression, Minato suddenly appeared.

"Huh? Oh, it's good morning Minato-sensei."

Kakashi was stunned for a moment, then saw the face of the visitor clearly and responded immediately.

"Kakashi, I just recommended you to Hokage-sama."

"As long as you fill out an application form for promotion to Jonin, you will be eligible for promotion."

Minato-sensei directly explained his purpose.

"Huh? Are you about to be promoted to jounin?"

Kakashi was a little surprised when he heard this.

"What, you're not happy?"

Seeing that Kakashi was not as happy as he thought, Minato was a little curious.

This is a position that many ninjas can't reach despite their whole lives!

This shouldn't be the reaction!

"That's not true. I just don't think I'm ready yet."

Kakashi explained quickly.

In fact, for Kakashi, it doesn't matter whether he is promoted to jounin or not.

But this promotion always gave him an ominous premonition.

Think about it in the original work, not long after he was promoted to Jonin, something happened to Obito...

"No need to prepare anymore, your performance has been excellent enough and you can fully meet the standards of a Jonin!"

Minato smiled gently.

This guy is surprisingly humble!

Ordinary people can get the opportunity to be promoted to Jonin at such a young age, and they may have already drifted away!

It’s not easy for Kakashi to have such a mentality!

Thinking of this, Minato became more and more satisfied with Kakashi.

In fact, this recommendation is based on the fact that Kakashi has reached the Jonin standard.

It was also because Minato wanted to repay Kakashi's kindness for risking his life to save him last time.

He had already learned the Rasengan he had originally prepared before he started teaching it.

After thinking about it, I can only take care of him more on weekdays.

Of course, this is on the premise that the principles are not violated.

Public is public, private is private.

Minato has always been very clear about this.
