Konoha, reported by the Fourth Hokage at the beginning

Minato remained calm and did not fall out.

While maintaining his normal relationship with Li Yao, he focused his mind on sensing the chakra on Li Yao, trying to find the chakra of the enemy who was secretly controlling his friend.

Unfortunately, there was no hidden enemy at all, and Minato never found the same chakra temperature.

Li Yao had no idea what Minato was doing in secret.

He thought he had completely integrated into this world and had completely become Kimura Yao.

Little did they know that danger was approaching quietly.

……

"See you tomorrow, Minato."

"See you tomorrow, Yao."

"Yao, Minato, see you tomorrow."

At five o'clock in the afternoon, at the gate of the Ninja School, a group of classmates waved goodbye to Li Yao and Minato, and Li Yao waved back.

"See you tomorrow, Yao."

After the classmates left, Shuimen looked at Li Yao and waved. Their homes were exactly opposite each other, one in the north and the other in the south, and they took different roads. Every time they dropped off their children and went home, they would basically say goodbye at the school gate.

"See you tomorrow."

Li Yao smiled and waved, the smile on his face looking much more relaxed than in the morning.

The two turned and walked towards their respective homes.

Along the way, people who knew his predecessor would greet Li Yao, not only classmates but also adults he met on the street. Li Yao responded to them one by one.

I have to say that in terms of the usual friendliness of the villagers, Konoha is far superior to the other four major ninja villages.

The feeling at school today was also very good. There was no campus bullying as Li Yao had imagined. Everyone was very friendly and sincere to him.

It was fine in the morning. Considering Li Yao's mental state, no one interacted with him much.

By the time of the ninja tool practice class in the afternoon, it was apparent that Li Yao had gotten over the death of his parents. Other classmates in the class began to talk to Li Yao and did not exclude him because of his orphan status.

This greatly enhanced Li Yao's sense of identity with Konoha.

It is different from the various Konoha Dark Theories I saw on Tik Tok in my previous life.

The villagers of Konoha in this world, especially the children in the ninja school, are still very united.

In fact, to put it bluntly, he has a strong sense of identity with the identity of Konoha, just like Li Yao in his previous life identified very much with his identity as a Chinese.

With this strong sense of national identity, everyone will be more tolerant and friendly towards people with the same identity who are facing difficulties.

The same is true for the people of Konoha being friendly to Li Yao.

Thinking of this, Li Yao couldn't help but sigh.

Although the Will of Fire is brainwashing, it is really useful.

Thanks to the brainwashing of the Will of Fire, the classmates in the school recognized the identity of Konoha Ninja and loved Li Yao very much.

At least situations like what happened to Naruto and Shin Kuna won't happen to him.

And Naruto was because of the publicity of the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox.

Xin Jiunai is an outsider.

The ninja world is actually very exclusive.

Because many outsiders act as spies, they are naturally not welcome.

In addition, the Will of Fire was originally meant to protect Konoha, so naturally it had to use the evil of outsiders to highlight its own greatness.

It is normal for people who have been brainwashed by this to be xenophobic.

Kyuubi and Shin Kuna are precisely the people who are not accepted by everyone, so they are excluded.

People like Kimura Yao, who were born and raised in Konoha and whose parents were ninjas who sacrificed their lives for Konoha, are not only not excluded by everyone, but are instead very friendly and caring.

"so!"

"Konoha is really good like this!"

"At least it's good now."

"I will be the one to protect this wonderful Konoha from now on."

At this time, Li Yao happened to pass by the Hokage Building. He stopped, looked up at the two "Hokage" characters written on the Hokage Building, smiled slightly, showing a firm smile, and then continued walking forward.

At this time, the Sandaime Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was standing in front of the window of the Hokage's office, happened to see this scene.

"Great! Another good child who inherited the will of fire."

The Sandaim had a cigarette in his mouth, smacking his eyes, and staring at the road that led from the Ninja School.

Seeing Li Yao stop and look at the longing eyes on the Hokage Building, the Third Hokage showed a gratified smile on his face, and thought to himself that there was one more successor to the Will of Fire, and at the same time, one more supporter of his.

what?

Supporting the Will of Fire doesn't mean supporting him?

how is this possible.

He, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, is the embodiment of the will of fire.

To embrace the Will of Fire is to embrace Him.

Looking at the children who inherited the will of fire walking through the Hokage Building, the Sandaime felt extremely comfortable.

So at this time every day, he liked to stand in front of the window and watch the children returning home from the Ninja School.

Chapter 5 Report

Not long after Li Yao left, Minato appeared in front of the Hokage Building.

In the office building, Sandai immediately noticed this talented young man with golden hair and a gentle smile on his face.

The third generation was very clear about Minato's talent.

This is a genius who possesses ninja talent that is no less than that of his disciple Orochimaru.

So he has always been paying attention to Minato, and at this moment he is a little curious as to why this kid came to him after school instead of going home?

Are you here to pay your respects to him?

Haha... the third generation thought to himself and smiled.

"Little guy, is there something wrong?"

Before Minato got close, the middle-aged ninja on duty at the entrance of the Hokage Building asked with a smile as Minato approached.

Minato subconsciously glanced in the direction of his friend's house, then took a few steps forward, and said in a low voice with a serious expression: "Uncle Domoto, my name is Minato, and I am a student in the second year and third class of the Ninja School. I have something to do and I want to see the Hokage now. Is that okay?"

Minato spoke clearly, and quickly stated his identity and purpose, and also called out the name of the ninja in the duty room.

"How do you know me?"

Domoto was surprised and at the same time he became a little alert. He was not a famous ninja, and he was not to the point where any random child could identify him.

"I often heard from Mugure-san that you are a very powerful ninja, and I saw you come to school to pick up Mugure-san several times."

Minato explained patiently. He knew that his sudden request to see the Hokage would definitely make Uncle Domoto alert.

But it is true that he was a classmate of Uncle Domoto's son.

"It turns out to be you."

Upon hearing this, Domoto pretended to be enlightened. In fact, he was very busy and only went to the school to pick up his children twice.

And every time I was in a hurry, I never paid any attention to the child in front of me.

However, after Minato said this, he let down his guard a lot.

"What do you want to see the Hokage for?" Domoto asked with a smile, without letting Minato in.

Not everyone can meet Naruto whenever they want. What if you encounter an assassination attempt?

So even though Minato was his son's classmate and looked very young, Domoto still couldn't let him in to meet the Hokage.

Especially for those who are not ninjas, if they want to take the initiative to see the Hokage, they need special approval or be brought by a familiar ninja.

Minato was secretly anxious when he heard this, he also knew the procedure for meeting the Hokage, but he couldn't wait to find a familiar elder to take him to meet the Hokage.

He has already determined that something must have happened to his good friend Kimura Yao. Any delay could result in an accident to his friend. He must inform the Hokage of the situation as soon as possible so that the Hokage can take action to ensure his friend's safety.

So he must see the Hokage as soon as possible.

After thinking for a while, Minato suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Uncle Domoto, my good friend and classmate Kimura Yō, I am sure he is controlled by an unknown ninja."

"Hmm..." Domoto's expression froze when he heard that. Looking at Minato's serious face, he also became serious and said seriously: "Minato, you know that this kind of thing can't be joked about. The appearance of a spy in the village is no small matter."

Minato explained: "I am serious. I have the ability to sense changes in chakra temperature. This morning I found that the chakra temperature in Yao's body has changed. Coupled with some changes in Yao's small living habits, I concluded that Yao has been controlled by someone."

Chakra perception ability!

Domoto was shocked when he heard this, and looking at the little shot Minato, he could not hide the shock in his eyes. At such a young age, he has such a fine chakra perception ability, which shows how powerful the little guy's chakra control talent is.

Later...wait!

Now is not the time to marvel at the little guy's talent.

If the little guy's talent is real, the kid named Kimura Yao is not just being controlled, but may have become a completely different person.

Because if it is just controlled, the chakra temperature will not change.

In other words, a spy really had sneaked into Konoha.

And this spy most likely killed a child in Konoha.

Thinking of this, Doumoto's murderous intent suddenly appeared and then disappeared. He stood up and wanted to report the situation to the Hokage.

call out!

At this moment, an Anbu ninja wearing a white and red fox mask appeared instantly, so fast that it seemed like teleportation.

Domoto didn't notice it.

Only Minato reacted at that moment, his body responding, his legs slightly crouching, his hands slightly moving closer to his pockets, ready to jump in and take out a kunai to fight at any time.

"As expected of a genius that Hokage-sama values!"

The fox-masked ANBU ninja saw Minato's instant reaction, his eyes slightly fixed, and he actually followed his body-flickering technique, what a fast reaction speed.

The ANBU ninja was shocked, but at the same time he couldn't help but secretly admire the vision of the Hokage. Just this reaction speed was already higher than most ninjas in the ANBU.

You have to know that the Anbu are a group of people who often travel between life and death, and if they don’t react quickly, they won’t survive.

Therefore, he can surpass many Anbu ninjas in terms of reaction speed, which shows that the man named Namikaze Minato is very talented.

This also made the Anbu ninja who appeared believe what Minato said a little bit.

"Come with me, the Hokage-sama wants to see you."

After saying this, the Anbu ninja looked at Minato deeply, then used the body-flash technique to disappear.

"Go ahead, Minato-chan."

Domoto said, from what the Anbu ninja said, he knew that the Hokage already knew everything that had just happened, but he was not surprised.

Lord Hokage is always surrounded by Anbu guards.

The exact number of people is unknown, but their perception ability is definitely very strong.

He and Minato were in front of the Hokage Building, very close to the Hokage. It seemed that the moment Minato arrived, there were ANBU ninjas watching this place.

"Thank you, Uncle Domoto." Minato said and walked into the building.

"Follow me." A female ninja with a curvy figure walked out of the Hokage Building and led Minato to see the Hokage.

Minato followed the kunoichi and they soon arrived in front of the Hokage's office on the second floor.

“Bang! Bang!”

The female ninja knocked on the door and called out, "Hokage-sama."

"come in."

A very attractive male voice came from the room. It was hard to tell whether he was young or old, but it was very powerful.
