Konoha: I, Ninja War Sakura, rely entirely on skills!

Chapter 18 Shadow

Chapter 18 Shadow
Under the gaze of the two gate-guarding ninjas, Haruno Sakura climbed the stairs leading to the Hokage's office.

"so good……"

"It seems that an excellent ninja is about to appear in the village."

The ninja who had just questioned Sakura spoke gently.

The special coding on the scroll Sakura showed him was quite advanced.

The significance of being able to obtain advanced techniques from Sarutobi Hiruzen at such a young age is self-evident.

"Hmm? I remember your boy seemed to be only two or three years older than this girl?"

His companion next to him teased him with a mocking look on his face.

The gatekeeper ninja twitched his lips when he heard this, thinking of his own brat, and then said with a dark face:

"Don't mention it. That kid has been pissing me off lately."

"You actually applied the depilatory cream to the Inuzuka family's ninja dog."

"Now, more than a dozen dogs in the Inuzuka family have become bald and hairless dogs. Every day when they see that kid, they chase and bite him..."

Sakura came to the second floor of the Hokage Building. Looking at the outdated decorations around her, she couldn't help but wonder if she had come to the core organization of Konoha.

No matter how you look at it, it looks like it's going to leak when it rains.

The Hokage's office is easy to spot, as there is a sign with the words "Hokage's Office" hanging on the door.

The office door was ajar. Sakura just knocked and the door opened by itself.

"Is that Sakura?"

"come in."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's somewhat old and weak voice sounded.

Sakura pushed the door open and walked in. An old man in a red and white divine robe and a Hokage hat was sitting at the desk facing the door.

"Hokage-sama."

Sakura bowed respectfully and was about to take out the scroll when she saw Sarutobi Hiruzen stand up and walk in front of her, laughing softly and saying:
"Don't be so reserved, just call me Grandpa Hokage."

"Okay, Grandpa Hokage!"

Sakura climbed up the pole without any hesitation.

"Hahahahaha, what do you want to talk to me about today, Sakura?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen pulled Sakura to sit on the sofa beside him and spoke with a smile.

He had thought that the child would come to him within a day or two after he gave Sakura the scroll.

I didn't expect that it would take half a month before he came to my door.

This made him a little curious. Could it be that the cultivation of supernatural powers was not difficult for her?

Sakura took out the scroll given to her by Sarutobi Hiruzen and spread it out on the coffee table in front of her, pointing to the last point and asking how chakra works simply and effectively within the body.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the child in front of him in surprise. He did not mention any of the previous training methods and only asked about the final chakra training method.

Could it be that the other party has already mastered the strange power in half a month?

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen suppressed his doubts and explained carefully to Haruno Sakura.

As a doctor of ninjutsu, Sarutobi Hiruzen is proficient in all the nature and form changes of the Five Elements ninjutsu. He was once known as the Ninja Hero on the battlefield for his exquisite ninjutsu and the Sarutobi clan's Ruyi Stick.

His understanding of techniques can be said to be outstanding even among the small group of people at the top of the ninja world.

"So, Sakura is still too young. If she grows up a little and makes her tendons stronger, the chakra will flow more effectively in her body."

Sarutobi Hiruzen gently answered the child's question, but he still raised his doubts and spoke:
"Sakura asked this question. Has she already acquired super powers?"

There was a hint of anticipation in Sarutobi Hiruzen's words. If he could learn super strength in half a month, that would really be...

"correct."

Sakura looked matter-of-fact.

Then the pair of emerald green eyes scanned around and fixed their gaze on the ordinary-looking tea set on the coffee table. Under Sarutobi Hiruzen's shocked gaze, a dark teacup was crushed between Sakura's fingers.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was speechless when he saw this scene.

What is super strength?
Tsunade's original famous technique is close to the difficulty of S-level techniques. Among A-level ninjutsu, its difficulty is definitely T0 level.

This child only took half a month...

At the beginning, I gave her the method of cultivating super powers because I considered that this child had great strength and excellent chakra control that was very similar to Tsunade's.

Unexpectedly, this really gave me a surprise.

It’s just a pity to waste my antique tea set.

Sakura tilted her head as she looked at the silent Sarutobi Hiruzen, thinking that maybe he just thought that crushing a teacup was not a big deal.

Then he reached out to the teapot, and with a "click", the teapot was scrapped.

"Stop, stop!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the antique teapot that he had accidentally destroyed with some heartache, but it was too late.

"Eh?"

"Grandpa Hokage, do you think I didn't do something well?"

Sakura's eyes couldn't help but fall on Sarutobi Hiruzen's desk, looking for some props that could test his strength.

"No, ok, very good."

"Sakura's excellence is beyond my expectation."

Sarutobi Hiruzen blocked Sakura's gaze that was searching for prey. He felt that if he was a step slower, who knows what the child would have torn apart.

At this moment, the office door was pushed open, and an old man and an old woman appeared directly in front of Sakura and Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Hiruzhan..."

The old man, who was about the same age as Sarutobi Hiruzen, opened his mouth subconsciously, but noticed Sakura and stopped talking abruptly.

Looking at these two people, Sakura probably guessed why Sarutobi Hiruzen knew he was coming so quickly.

It turns out that other people didn't even knock on the door...

"If Grandpa Hokage has something to do, then I will leave first..."

When Sakura saw Mitomon En and Utane Koharu, two old men who looked like they had one foot in the ground but could actually still live for a few more decades, appearing here, she knew it was time for her to go.

"Sakura, wait, I have something for you."

After saying that, Sarutobi Hiruzen ignored his two old friends and went back to his desk to look through something. He then took out a scroll and handed it to Sakura.

"Go ahead, and come back to me if you've learned it."

Sarutobi Hiruzen patted Sakura's head and spoke with a smile.

"Thank you, Grandpa Hokage!"

When Sakura saw the old man take out another scroll, her eyes lit up. She held the scroll and quickly disappeared in front of the three old men.

Watching the pink little girl leave, Mito Kado En couldn't help but look at Sarutobi Hiruzen in confusion:

"Monkey, who is that child?"

He had been observing Sakura since he entered the door. His old friend seemed to be particularly patient with this child.

"The future of Konoha."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked through the window with some emotion at Haruno Sakura who was leaving the Hokage building.

"Would that be too much of an exaggeration, Hiruzen?"

Utane Koharu standing by frowned slightly.

"It's no exaggeration. I see the shadows of Tsunade and Minato in this child..."
