N-A-A Chapter 196 Planning Ahead, Neji's Approval
Chapter 196 Planning Ahead, Neji's Approval
Night, a time-traveling room.
"I need you to come and watch the house for me in about a month. Although there is no clear evidence that there will be any accidents during this Chunin Exam, the appearance of Orochimaru and the One-Tailed Jinchuriki makes me have to prepare in advance to avoid any accidents."
"This room is the only medium connecting our two worlds, and there can be no mistakes." Looking at Nohara Rin across from him, Ishikawa extended the invitation with a solemn expression.
During this period, either he was not around or Nohara Rin was not around, so we must make an appointment in advance to make sure that we can meet again without any problems.
“I can understand the One-Tailed Jinchuriki of Sunagakure. But how come Lord Orochimaru is involved here?” Nohara Rin blinked her big eyes, puzzled. Wasn’t Orochimaru one of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha?
Especially after she, Kakashi, and Obito were known as the Legendary Sannin of Konoha, she developed a special sense of respect for the Sannin.
Judging from Ishikawa's tone, could something unexpected have happened in the future?
"Yes, around Konoha year 50, Orochimaru defected because his human experiments were exposed! He is currently an S-rank rogue ninja of Konoha, and a very dangerous and terrifying figure."
Nohara Lin......
"That's Orochimaru, one of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha! How could he possibly conduct human experiments?" After a pause, Rin Nohara still asked, unwilling to give up.
Indeed, Orochimaru is now Konoha's second-best legendary ninja after the Third Hokage. He is one of Konoha's symbols and a highly popular candidate for the Fourth Hokage.
The defection of such a figure is a loss to the village not only in terms of strength, but also a huge blow to its morale.
"Unfortunately, that's the truth! But Xiaolin, what's done is done for me and can't be changed, but you might be able to change the outcome on your side."
"Even if it's truly impossible to change things, you can still try to mitigate the losses before he does those things. For example, have Kakashi become Orochimaru's apprentice and obtain the summoning contract passed down from the Legendary Sannin."
"Let Kakashi become Orochimaru's apprentice?" Nohara Rin's eyes widened and her mouth gaped open, her adorable expression of surprise frozen in place.
"That's right! Don't you want to take this opportunity to solidify your title as the third youngest ninja of Konoha? Let the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, go to the Third Hokage for help, and you become Tsunade's apprentice, while Obito becomes Jiraiya's apprentice."
“In this way, the Legendary Sannin of Konoha will truly be passed down. This will be a real benefit for both you and the village.” Ishikawa pressed his advantage, directly stating the suggestion he had already considered.
At present, this is the only stable and reliable way to rapidly increase the strength of Nohara Rin and the other two!
That way, once they become the new Legendary Sannin, their strength will be even greater, plus the Fourth Hokage's ascension. As long as everything goes smoothly for him, his future is practically guaranteed...
He dared not take the risk because the Third Hokage was in power, but if it were the Fourth Hokage, Minato, plus the influence of Kakashi and Naruto, then the relationship between the two worlds might be able to move forward.
"Gulp..." Listening to Ishikawa's description of the wonderful future, Nohara Rin swallowed hard and was really tempted.
"It just so happens that Obito was also specially promoted to Jonin by the Hokage today. I'll ask Minato-sensei for his opinion tomorrow."
"Obito has been promoted to Jonin?" Ishikawa blurted out subconsciously, but then he understood when he thought of Obito's three-tomoe jutsu and the current era of war.
"So, did Madara Uchiha send out White Zetsu to monitor Obito again?" Before Rin Nohara could reply, Ishikawa changed the subject.
"No, he hasn't appeared since the Kannabi Bridge mission." Nohara Rin's gaze turned serious as she spoke of Uchiha Madara.
She remained vigilant throughout this period, but she couldn't find any trace of Bai Jue.
"That's good! It seems we don't need to worry about Madara Uchiha for now before you enter the Hidden Mist battlefield." Ishikawa replied with a smile, and then explained to Rin Nohara the information he had obtained about the Three-Tails incident in Hidden Mist.
Of course, it's inevitable that some embellishments were added to explain the fact that the Fourth Mizukage was controlled by genjutsu.
"So, you mean Madara Uchiha has secretly taken control of Kirigakure?!" Nohara Rin gasped in shock, never expecting that Kirigakure, one of the Five Great Nations, had been taken over by Madara Uchiha without anyone noticing.
This is bad! Obito might be in big trouble...
"That's why I said you're safe before entering the Hidden Mist Battlefield." Ishikawa nodded, then smirked. "Remember to let me know when the time comes, and next time I'll teach old man Madara a lesson he won't forget."
The door handle's physical enhancement is getting weaker and weaker; he needs to find new power to continue his cheat code.
The Three-Tails of this world hasn't been resurrected yet, and finding other tailed beasts would be too troublesome and would attract the attention of Akatsuki. So, he's determined to take this Three-Tails from the Third Shinobi World War, which has come knocking on his door! Even if Madara Uchiha himself came, he couldn't stop it.
absolute!!
Seeing Ishikawa's confident demeanor, as if he had Uchiha Madara completely under his control, Nohara Rin was filled with anticipation and no longer worried about Madara's threat.
After discussing the details of defending their home again during the third Chunin Exams, the two chatted about everyday things while simultaneously training with their enhanced abilities.
Time flies by unnoticed...
With the arrival of the genin teams from various countries, a week has passed in the blink of an eye.
This is the day at the Ninja Academy.
"Hey... I didn't expect you guys to be here too!" As soon as Taro arrived outside the registration room, he saw three familiar figures come forward to greet him.
"Of course! Last time's failure was just an experience to accumulate on the road to success. This time, we will definitely pass the test and become Chunin!" one of them shouted excitedly, punching and kicking. He looked full of enthusiasm.
"You're still as energetic as ever, Lee," Jiro said with a helpless smile, then turned his gaze to Neji and Tenten.
"It has indeed been a long time!" Neji nodded as well. In the past year, thanks to the Super Strength Scroll that Ishikawa gave him, he wished he could spend all his free time training.
Therefore, he even refused Ishikawa's repeated invitations to dinner, just so he could catch up with that guy quickly and give him a surprise.
"So, she's your new teammate? The one replacing Ishikawa." Neji glanced at Karin and said indifferently, thinking of his former rival.
Just wait! Mitarashi Ishikawa. This time, Hyuga Neji will definitely pass the exam and become a Chunin, truly becoming a man he can entrust his back to.
Neji, unaware that Ishikawa had become a Special Jonin, was being both naive and pragmatic in his thinking.
"You eye-rolling bastard, Ishikawa-kun's existence is irreplaceable! My name is Uzumaki Karin, and I'm just a member of the Ishikawa squad." Karin shouted angrily. How could she allow anyone to replace Ishikawa-kun?
Even if that person is yourself, it won't work!
"Is that so? As expected of the partner Ishikawa chose. Karin, right? I acknowledge your existence now!"
Karin?
Is this guy out of his mind?
