Naruto: They are all reborn

Chapter 17: Konoha has no fifteen-year-old Genin
Two days later, the Third Hokage suddenly issued a notice, ordering the removal of Hatake Sakumo from all positions and ordering him to hand in his forehead protector.

As soon as the news came out, the entire Konoha Village was in an uproar.

What does handing in your forehead protector mean?
From now on, Hatake Sakumo was no longer a ninja of Konoha Village, but an ordinary civilian.

Some people think that the punishment is too severe. After all, Hatake Sakumo had made great military achievements in the past, and his merits and demerits should be offset.

Some people also think that this punishment is just right, or not enough, because Hatake Sakumo violated the "Ninja Code", which means that he is no longer suitable to be a ninja.

A day later, someone saw Hatake Sakumo leaving Konoha at the Konoha gate. No one knew where he was going or whether he would come back.

Asuma jumped over the wall to skip school and ran all the way to the Hokage's office to question the Sandaime Hokage.

"Father, is this the result you expected?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen exhaled a puff of white smoke and said slowly: "If you were half as smart as Shimo, you wouldn't come to question me."

Since that day, Sarutobi Hiruzen ordered an investigation into who Asuma had contacted, fearing that someone had deliberately transmitted some thoughts to Asuma, turning him into a sword pointing at the Hokage.

But after an investigation by the Anbu, they discovered that the source of everything was the barbecue restaurant. After getting the details, Sarutobi Hiruzen had a higher opinion of Toki.

He is smart and can come up with a punishment plan for Hatake Sakumo, knowing that the key to solving the problem lies with the villagers.

He was brave and worked in perfect harmony with Uchiha Obito, and together they defeated a seasoned Chunin.

The most important thing is that Toki was venting Kakashi's anger. He had only been in Konoha for a little over a month, but he had already formed such a deep bond with the people in the village.

Good seedlings, good seedlings!
Sarutobi Hiruzen was satisfied with all aspects, but the more he admired Tokisuke, the more he felt disappointed with his own silly boy when he saw him.

Asma:?

Sarutobi Hiruzen exhaled a puff of smoke and continued, "You can only see the tip of the iceberg, but from where I stand, I can see the whole iceberg. The different heights you stand at, the different views you see, and the different things you need to think about."

"You come to question me simply because you're dissatisfied with White Fang's punishment and think it's too severe. But in my opinion... this punishment may not even be enough."

Asuma's head was buzzing with shock from these words. "Father, can you please stop using riddles and be straightforward?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at him and said, "You don't have the thinking of a Hokage yet. With your current knowledge and ability, you won't understand even if I tell you."

Asuma felt very aggrieved: "How do you know I don't understand if you don't tell me?!"

"No one knows a son better than his father. Don't I know that?"

"You don't understand me at all!"

"Asuma!" Sarutobi Hiruzen's beard trembled with anger, and he wished that what he was holding in his hand was not a pipe, but Seven Wolves.

"Tsk! You just want to be a riddler!"

Asuma kicked the table leg and turned and ran away.

Sarutobi Hiruzen slammed the table angrily, but did not take any further action. He just watched Asuma leave and let out a long sigh.

"Asuma, practice hard. When you graduate and become a Genin, the scenery you see will be different from now. When you become a Jonin, you will understand my choice."

He sat back at his desk, staring at the documents in his hand, lost in thought.

[The Hidden Cloud Village's proposal and request for a peace agreement.]

"White Fang's resignation as a ninja successfully diverted the villagers' attention, but this is not enough. We must completely divert the villagers' attention away from White Fang... In this way, we will pass this level."

"But the fundamental problem remains unresolved. The conflict between the Will of Fire and the Ninja Code...it's difficult."
-
"Kakashi, what's wrong with you?" In the past few days, Shi Xu found that Kakashi's dead fish eyes symptoms were getting worse and worse, and he couldn't help but feel curious about what happened.

Kakashi sighed and asked instead, "Tokisou, do you know about graduating early?"

Shi Xu shook his head.

"Ninja schools can apply for early graduation, but the difficulty will be much higher than the normal graduation assessment."

Hearing this, Shi Xu was a little moved: "Kakashi, do you want to apply for early graduation?"

Kakashi nodded and shook his head, "I do, but not right now. I plan to apply for early graduation in a year. Do you want to join me?"

"I need to think about it."

Shi Xu learns very quickly, and in just over a month, the Ninja School can only have a limited effect on him.

His focus now is basically on the training after school, which is tailor-made for him by Tsunade and Kushina. It can perfectly drain every bit of his physical strength every day, and his progress is also faster than that of the school.

All he could learn in school was theoretical knowledge, but with his self-study speed, he has almost mastered it now.

Of course, he only took a look at books like "The Ninja Code" and "The Will of Fire" and didn't take them seriously. He put most of his energy into practical books like "Traps and Tricks", "Ninja World General Knowledge", and "Practical Ninja Techniques".

By now, Shixu had already started to learn medical knowledge from Nohara Rin to lay a solid foundation. As Tsunade's disciple, how could he not learn medical ninjutsu?

"Why do you want to graduate early?"

Kakashi raised his head slightly and glanced at the students playing ninja games in the classroom, especially the student who shouted "I want to be Hokage" and stayed for a while.

“Because it’s annoying here.”

"Why?" Shi Xu smacked his lips in surprise.

Kakashi is a person with a cold exterior but a warm heart. Even though he keeps saying that Obito is a fool and is noisy and noisy, he always regards Obito as a friend in his heart.

However, Tokihiro just saw clearly that Kakashi was really fed up with the ninja school from the bottom of his heart.

Kakashi hesitated for a long time before quickly explaining in a voice that would not be heard by others: "Father took the initiative to look for the Hokage."

He addressed him as "Hokage" instead of "Hokage-sama".

Shi Xu suddenly realized: "So that's how it is."

When the Hokage made the announcement, he thought the Hokage had waited for the right moment, but he never expected that it was actually Hatake Sakumo who had taken the initiative. It was probably Sakumo who had taken the initiative to remove him from his position, even to the point of handing in his forehead protector and resigning from being a ninja.

Looking at it this way...it seems like the Hokage didn't do anything?
So Kakashi felt disappointed and skeptical about the Hokage, while in the ninja school, there were children everywhere shouting that they wanted to become Hokage.

"I want to meet the requirements for the Chunin Exam as soon as possible after graduation. After becoming a Chunin, I won't have to follow the leader Jonin on missions all day long, and I can have more time to do what I want to do."

After saying that, Kakashi turned his head and looked into Toki's eyes: "Of course, I don't force you to make the same choice as me."

"No, actually I also want to apply for early graduation."

Tokihiro shook his head, straightened his back, and looked at Kakashi, who was a head shorter than him. "I am four years older than you. If I had completed the entire ninja school step by step, I would have been fifteen when I graduated."

"Is there a fifteen-year-old Genin in Konoha?"
