Just as Fusugi Fusui and Umino Iruka were having a few drinks, in the same shop, in a box separated by a few walls, the bearded "prominent" Sarutobi Asuma and Matt gradually appeared.

Gai and Kakashi Hatake have a small gathering together.

As a leader in the same class, Hatake Kakashi was naturally promoted to Jonin early. He only retired from the ANBU sequence a few months ago and became an "ordinary" Jonin under the sun.

The reputation of "Konoha Technician" is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the awareness of the younger generation of people who carry the cauldron, "Copy Ninja" himself has already been realized. Although Hatake Kakashi himself does not like it very much, there are some things that he does not want to do.

Can be avoided.

It has been half a year since Sarutobi Asuma returned to Konoha Village and obtained the status of Jonin. He has been really busy in the past few months. In order to maintain the power of the largest ninja village in the ninja world, the third generation of Naruto, Sarutobi,

Hiruzen also became ruthless, and all the Konoha ninjas under his command were forced to complete their missions desperately, forcing themselves to survive the complicated reconstruction period.

As the biological son of the current Hokage, he is constantly busy and has almost no leisure time.

Fortunately, the most difficult period has passed.

Metkai, on the other hand, is in a happy situation. More than a year ago, there were rumors that he was going to be promoted to Jonin, but due to various troubles, it was delayed again and again.

The bad luck will eventually go away. Last weekend, Metkai, who had been waiting for a long time, finally received the exact notice. Starting next month, he will be an honorable jounin. The "Blue Beast" of Konoha Village is worthy of his name.

It’s no longer just self-bragging.

The overjoyed "Big Eyebrow" wanted to find a few friends to celebrate, but not many could spare the time.

After careful consideration, Metkai still invited Asuma and Kakashi.

"Who else at our age has passed this level?"

Asuma asked while picking his teeth and smelling of alcohol.

Kakashi Hatake held the warm wine glass and took a sip, not forgetting to read the novel at hand.

"Anko Mitarashi, Genma Shiranui, and Hayate Hayate are already special. The others still need time to accumulate qualifications. It's still early for you to care about Kurenai Yuhi..."

"What do I care about?"

The bearded man who was caught off guard blushed slightly and coughed lightly as if to cover up.

"I didn't ask her..."

"Obviously he is a bad boy, but he is surprisingly innocent!"

Metkai hooked Asma's neck, winked and smiled playfully,

"You and Hong were very close when we were young. I thought it would be a natural progression and we would get married. How come you are still estranged when you grow up?"

"Jealousy is a man's biggest enemy. It makes people lose their cool and make them look ugly."

Hatake Kakashi put down the reading material in his hand and sighed slightly,

"Fortunately, you are much more mature now, and you won't naively think that slandering your love rival will make Hong look at you differently."

"Why do you seem to know everything?"

Asuma Sarutobi rubbed the bridge of his nose awkwardly and said with a smile,

"Is it obvious?"

"You are a young man who is fascinated by women. There is nothing surprising. Back then, you secretly followed Yuri Kurenai and tried to take advantage of the situation. Apart from being a little bad and domineering, you are nothing special. A fellow from a distinguished family background.

There are many junior students, but your strength is not top-notch. In terms of financial resources, the entire Konoha Village cannot compare to the Fushigi family, so how can you compare with Fushibu Shui?"

Kurenai Yuhi, Asuma Sarutobi and others graduated from the ninja school at the age of nine. In other words, Furugi Fusui's fate as being in the same grade as them lasted for less than three years.

It stands to reason that they grew up in the same village, never look up when they look down, and have the advantage of being near the water and building, but Asuma Sarutobi still failed to take advantage of the opportunity to widen the gap. Isn't he too useless?

Kakashi Hatake's words left Asuma Sarutobi speechless, and Metkai also agreed with him:

"I have been in the same class with that boy Bu Shui for a while, and I know him a little bit. He is a very scheming guy. Although he does not have many bad intentions, he is not as innocent as he seems on the surface. Although he is a little rude, he

He is a person who can weigh the pros and cons, and there is nothing about Yuhi Kurenai that makes him waste time trying to please her. Therefore, Yuhi Kurenai should have been attracted to her on her own initiative."

"Furusugi!"

Hatake Kakashi nodded in agreement.

If they didn't happen to know a person named "Furusugi", probably not many Konoha ninjas in this generation would know about this super nobleman hidden behind the daimyo.

Considering Kosugi Bosui's exaggerated family background, it is really not easy to be able to condescend to join a group of Konoha ninjas. Coupled with his own qualifications and hard work, he is still above average in the "big year" where many geniuses are born.

level, and with the blessing of "money ability", it is a high probability that the achievement is higher than that of most Konoha jounin.

I'm more qualified than you, I'm more handsome than you, and you work so hard. What's even more annoying is that you're so rich and powerful. It's not surprising that young girls prefer you.

"For nearly four years, Kosugi Fusui and Yuhi Kurenai didn't have much interaction. It happened to be the end of the Third Ninja War at that time, and it was also the decisive period with the greatest casualties. Asuma and Kurenai didn't have much time to talk.

It's normal to fall in love. The war finally ended and the Nine-Tails attacked the village. The whole village suffered heavy losses, and Hong's parents and relatives also died in the war."

Hatake Kakashi ran through the timeline with his fingers and found that it was no wonder Sarutobi Asuma missed the opportunity.

After that, Yuhi Hong and Furusugi Bushui seemed to get acquainted with each other again. The specific reason was unknown to the three of them.

The bearded man sighed and stretched his face. He was about to say something when he suddenly thought of something and asked eagerly:

"Gushan Bushui's daughter is now more than seven years old. Did he already know that he had a daughter at that time? Could it be that Hong looked at the new father... in a different light because of the loss of his father's love?"

"Stop talking nonsense."

Long-winded persuasion is not what Kakashi Hatake is good at. The analysis just now has exhausted all the brain cells today. The "Copy Ninja" no longer wants to provide advice for the unshaven "uncle"'s young love today.

"Today is a celebration party for Kai's promotion to Jonin. Why is it that the topic of conversation always involves female ninjas?"

"I heard……"

Metkai lowered his voice mysteriously,

"That guy Bu Shui has another child, triplets. A student in the same grade is actually the father of four children. It's really scary."

"Is this happening?"

Even the bearded man was taken aback, and he immediately woke up from the drunkenness.

"No wonder, that's it. I just said that Hong and Hongdou secretly prepared some gifts. It turned out to be for his daughter."

"It shouldn't be wrong."

The new jounin with thick eyebrows and big eyes responded vaguely,

"Your love rival is the father of four children, so show some confidence and stop asking for gossip and spreading some inexplicable rumors. If you continue like this, you will really be hated."

"I've stopped doing it a long time ago, okay?"

The blushing Sarutobi Asuma laughed angrily,

"Sincerity leads to gold and stone, we are still young, our family does not have huge wealth for our children to inherit, and we have plenty of time to save it."

Just as the three of them were talking and laughing, a familiar voice came from the corridor. Gusugi Fusui helped Umino Iruka pass by, who was already a little unsteady, and walked out slowly.

The three people looking at each other through the slightly open door looked at each other.

"An old father who cares about his children's studies is trying to get along with the teacher? Back then, my father was also struggling with whether to give gifts to the class teacher..."

Thinking of this, Metkai smiled unkindly,

"As for the attribute of 'father', Asuma, you can't even catch up with me. If Kurenai Yuhi longs for a boyfriend who is like a father, it will be difficult for you."

"I want you to take care of it."

The bearded man, who was laughing and cursing, poured wine into the glass of Metkai, who was also a little drunk.

"I said, although we fought when we were kids, we are still in the same grade. Why don't we also go and visit? We will have to deal with each other a lot when we go on missions in the future."

"I'll forget it."

Hatake Kakashi waved his hand,

"The Sandaime asked me to take over a genin team. I have to go and take a look. Even if I want to refuse, I have to find some reliable reason."

"Are you ready to reject it before it even starts?"

Metkai was a little confused. This should be a task assigned by the Hokage because of his trust, right? Why don't you cherish it?

"Right now, I'm not ready to play the 'ninja game' with the kid."

"Well, for you, it is indeed a 'game'. Anyway, you might as well go and have a look. What if there is a surprise?"

"Then let me test it like this without any expectations."

Although it is unfair to the genin who are about to pass by, the "copy ninja" has just left the ANBU, and his temperament is far from as calm as it would be a few years later. Sometimes the murderous intention permeating his body cannot be completely restrained.

It was late at night, and the three of them, who had been drinking for a long time and talking a lot, were getting ready to finish. Kurenai Yuhi, Anko Mitarashi, Ebisu and Genma Shiranui arrived together.

With more people, the atmosphere should be more enthusiastic, but Metkai is a little groggy and not very responsive. Hatake Kakashi is not a talkative person, and Sarutobi Asuma is also a little reserved in front of Yuhi Kurenai.

Fortunately, the carefree Anko Mitarai enlivened the atmosphere. After entering the atmosphere, the "sultry pervert" Ebisu also rose to the occasion and knew how to make everyone happy.

Since the genocide of the Uchiha, Konoha Ninja Village has been operating under high load, completing tasks continuously. Those present here are the backbone of Konoha Village, and their strength has been tested in the Third Ninja War.

trustworthy.

If you can do it, you will naturally have to do more.

"Not long ago, I heard the news that the country of Uzumaki has been rebuilt in name, and the old man has approved Uzushio Village's application to participate in this year's Chunin Examination."
