Chapter 26 - Love and Kill

 Chidao Chiba really doesn't want to complain about the three disciples of Senju Tobirama.

  There is no need to say much about Uchiha Kagami. He can be regarded as an idealist. Not only did he die in a very childish way at the hands of Shimura Danzo, but he also laid the seeds of disaster for the future of the Uchiha clan.

  Not to mention Danzo Shimura, an old conspirator that everyone hates.

  As for Sarutobi Hiruzen, this man had both good and bad reputations throughout his life. He was so powerful when he was young, but so useless when he was old.

  Turning his head to look at Tsunade beside him, Chishima Chiba still felt that Tsunade was more suitable to be the Fourth Hokage of Konoha.

  Forget about people like Namikaze Minato. Even if they manage to get to the top, they are just people who were sidelined by Sarutobi Hiruzen. It is better not to be one.

  As for myself, I just want to be the man of Hokage, and I don't care about anything else.

  "Is he Chishima Chiba?"

  While Chishima Chiba was looking at the three disciples of Senju Tobirama, Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzo, and Uchiha Kagami were also looking at Chishima Chiba.

  The three of them had all heard about Chishima and Chiba, but today was the first time they saw them.

  "That's right, handsome and likable." Shimura Danzo spoke.

  At this time, Shimura Danzo did not have the X-shaped scar on his chin, and he had a sunny appearance. His personality was probably not as bad as it is in later generations.

  "He is indeed very likable and very talented." Uchiha Kagami smiled softly, "This year's ninja students are incredible. The middle grade has Hatake Sakumo, and the lower grade has Tsunade and Chishima Chiba. Today's practical test will definitely be exciting."

  "By the way, Sarutobi, which one do you think is the best?"

  "It's hard to say." Sarutobi Hiruzen pondered for a moment, "I can only say that each has its own merits and advantages. Without a real fight, no one can predict the outcome."

  In response to Sarutobi Hiruzen's more tactful answer, Uchiha Kagami smiled and nodded, without saying anything else.

  The three of them chatted and laughed, and sat down behind the serious Senju Tobirama.

  At this moment, all the teachers from the ninja schools also rushed over and stood quietly on one side waiting for instructions from Senju Tobirama.

  "Let's get started."

  Senju Tobirama spoke, and the ninja teachers took his orders and left. Soon a group of ninja students were gathered.

  Of course, it is impossible to have a big show at the beginning, but rather a rather boring and lengthy fight between novices.

  Only the few who laugh last are qualified to fight a battle that may change their own destiny under the watchful eyes of Konoha's elite ninjas.

  Senju Tobirama came here to watch the battle not to join in the fun, but to select good talents worth cultivating.

  Although Tobirama Senju will no longer accept disciples, Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzo, and Uchiha Kagami can.

  As long as you are favored by the three of them, not to mention the future, just for the present, it is definitely a good thing that can make you reach success overnight.

  "Looking at this group of kids, I suddenly remembered the time when we were in Ninja School." Sarutobi Hiruzen was probably bored, so he took the initiative to bring up a topic, "I remember when Kagami was there, he was the undisputed number one!"

  "Sarutobi, have you forgotten about yourself and Danzo?" Uchiha Kagami smiled bitterly and shook his head, "It's not like I haven't been defeated by you before."

  "Humph, I only lost once, and that time you let me win." Shimura Danzo looked unhappy, and an uncontrollable jealousy surged in his heart, "The Uchiha bloodline is really blessed by nature!"

  "Ahem." Sarutobi Hiruzen coughed twice and reminded Shimura Danzo, "That was also Jing's hard work. It has nothing to do with bloodline."

  Shimura Danzo reacted and stole a glance at Senju Tobirama. Seeing that the other party did not react, he apologized to Uchiha Kagami in a low voice, "Kagami, I spoke out of turn."

  "It's okay, Danzo. I'm not a petty person."

  Uchiha Kagami waved his hands. He was magnanimous, but there was always a thorn in Shimura Danzo's heart that made him feel uncomfortable.

  Looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen, then at Uchiha Kagami, and finally at himself, Danzo Shimura remained silent, but clenched his hidden hands into fists.

  …

  "Thirteen consecutive wins!"  

  Chishima Chiba approached Tsunade and boasted about his achievements to the opponent, "They are very fierce when they stare at people, but once they enter the field, they can kill people in one move."

  "Look at how good you are." Tsunade pointed in one direction and said, "Look, that white-haired boy is Hatake Sakumo. He has won 20 games in a row and has already secured first place in the grade."

  "So strong?" Chishima Chiba looked in the direction of Hatake Sakumo, "I want to fight him more and more."

  "Me too!"

  Tsunade was also full of fighting spirit, but her expression froze afterwards. "But I will inevitably have to fight you later, which will be difficult to deal with."

  Chishima Chiba nodded, and instead of saying that he was going to let Tsunade win, he bumped fists with Tsunade, "Then you better do your best, Tsunade. I will definitely do my best."

  "Hmph, I will naturally accompany you to the end, and you'd better not lose." Tsunade said naturally without giving in.

  "Ha, then you will definitely be the loser."

  "It's you!"

  After just a few words, the atmosphere between Chishima Chiba and Tsunade was filled with tension, no longer the gentle breeze and drizzle as before.

  "Just wait and see!" X2

  each made a harsh remark, and the two of them staggered and went in opposite directions. However, when they were completely going in opposite directions, smiles appeared on each other's faces again.

  It's actually not bad to be rivals sometimes...

  "The last match of the lower grades, Chiba Chishima vs. Tsunade!"

  Masahiro Takezawa's voice was full of passion and he shouted very loudly.

  He had to speak loudly. Chishima Chiba and Tsunade were both students in his class. Although Takezawa Masahiro only taught them kung fu for less than a day and a half, no one could say that Takezawa Masahiro was not their teacher.

  After the curtain call, Takezawa Masahiro returned to the Ninja teacher's small circle and started bragging.

  "Tsunade, please teach me."

  "Qianye, please give me some advice."

  After coming on stage, the two men made opposing signs with each other, and while greeting each other, they simultaneously moved back to distance themselves from each other.

  Neither of them launched a sudden attack, but instead circled within a specific range, looking for an opportunity to attack.

  Chishima Chiba and Tsunade are really too familiar with each other. They have practiced against each other a lot in the past six months, and the win-loss ratio has always been 50-50.

  But this time, a winner must be decided!

  "Teacher, Tsunade and Chiba are both very cautious." Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled at Senju Tobirama from the audience.

  The serious Senju Tobirama curled the corners of his mouth. Although it was subtle, it could be seen that he was in a good mood at the moment.

  "good."

  The speech was concise and to the point, very much like Senju Tobirama.

  Sarutobi Hiruzen was already used to it, and naturally continued speaking along the lines of Senju Tobirama.

  "Teacher, if these two can only be considered "okay", then the others can only be considered disgraceful..."

  The upward arc of Senju Tobirama's mouth rose a little more, "It's a little worse than Tsunade and Chiba, but it's not bad enough."

  Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen worked even harder and praised Tsunade and Chishima Chiba in various ways.

  Although Senju Tobirama enjoyed Sarutobi Hiruzen's flattery of his two juniors, he finally pointed at the two people on the stage and said, "It's time to start."

  Sarutobi Hiruzen then calmed down and stared at the stage intently.
