From Hokage to Visionary

Listening to Uchiha Sogetsu's narration, Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he even admired him more and more.

"It's indeed a good idea!"

Nara Shikaku nodded and agreed: "If it is an illusion, we don't have to consider the casualty rate, so we have a lot of room to play."

"If that's the case, won't the Chunin Exam be too difficult?"

After hesitating for a long time, Minato Namikaze finally couldn't help it and asked cautiously.

Obito had been clamoring to take part in the Chunin Exams, but unfortunately he encountered reforms. Judging from the three words "casualty rate", he estimated that the difficulty would not be easy.

"Just control it properly and it will be fine." Nara Shikaku said, "Besides, a high difficulty is also a good thing. The Chunin selection cannot be too easy."

Minato Namikaze sighed helplessly. He had tried his best. Now it all depended on Obito and Rin to see if he could fight back.

"Counselors, do you have any questions?"

Uchiha Sogetsu asked deliberately with a gentle smile.

The two were greatly frustrated and immediately stopped talking in anger.

"Haiyi, what do you think of this idea?" asked Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Yamanaka Inoichi secretly exchanged a glance with Shikaku, who gave him a cryptic look. He immediately understood and nodded, "No problem, Hokage-sama. If it is combined with Sogetsu's illusion, it won't be a problem to cover all the Chunins who are participating. This method is very feasible."

"it is good!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen excitedly slammed the table and stood up, his eyes swept over the three people: "This time's Chunin Exam, it's settled!"

"Since you, Sogetsu, brought up the idea of ​​illusion, I guess you have some ideas about the content, right?" Nara Shikaku smiled and looked to the side, saying, "It's just right, while the Hokage is still here, why don't you tell us all and we can all help you with some advice."

“Well, I have an idea.”

Uchiha Sogetsu's eyes flickered, he pushed the frame slightly, and said with a smile: "My idea is to make a "Battle Royale" based on horror, survival, and escape!"

"Battle Royale?"

"Escape? Terror?"

"Survive?"

Everyone looked confused and didn't quite understand these new words.

Uchiha Sogetsu smiled and said, "To put it simply, they flee and we kill them."

The devil.

Just listening to it is terrifying!

Minato Namikaze couldn't help but cover his face, and in his heart he had already started mourning for his disciple.

Thanks to the master 'Book friend 20220702082813241' for the reward ~ hiccup ~ By the way, I would like to ask for another wave of support, thank you very much!

Chapter 52: Oops, even more enjoyable

The meeting came to an end after the details were finalized.

After the meeting, Namikaze Minato had a worried look on his face. He looked at Uchiha Sogetsu with complicated eyes, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Who would have thought that a boy with such a gentle and sunny appearance could come up with such a terrible idea!

At the same time, he couldn't help but feel fortunate that he had already become a jonin.

Otherwise, if I had fallen into this guy's hands, I might still be a Genin until now!

"Eh"

Namikaze Minato prayed for this year's candidates from the bottom of his heart: "I hope that after participating in this Chunin Exam, they won't suffer any psychological trauma."

As for Obito and Rin, he could only say: Let's leave it to fate.

The representative of the Hyuga clan glared at Uchiha Sogetsu before leaving, then hurried back to the clan, muttering curses under his breath.

He planned to go back and warn his clansmen that they must, must, definitely, be cautious and careful in this Chunin Exam!

If it doesn't work, just give up. Don't let it cause him psychological trauma. He will be thankful then.

"Haha, very interesting idea." Before leaving, Orochimaru looked at him with interest and said playfully, "I admire you, Uchiha Sogetsu. You have done in-depth research on illusions. I also have questions in this area. We can talk about it if we have a chance."

After saying that, he walked away, not caring about other people's looks.

The two advisors also had unfriendly looks and sullen faces. It was unclear whether it was because they were humiliated or because their power was taken away. They left without even saying goodbye.

Finally, there was Uchiha Sogetsu, the instigator. He didn't have any psychological burden at all and was even very happy.

What is the saying?

It is because you have been caught in the rain that you want to tear up other people’s umbrellas!

Although it hasn't rained on me, it doesn't stop me from tearing up my umbrella.

"Oh, another mission?"

A few lines of translucent words suddenly appeared in front of Uchiha Sogetsu's eyes.

[Side Quest: The Deepest Fear]

[Fear is the most profound emotion of human beings. Please let all the Genin who take part in the Chunin Exam feel a fear that will be remembered deeply.]

[Reward: Witch Ring

Corresponding characteristics: Witch Path 5-Witch of Pain

Appearance: Silver-black ring, unique shape, inlaid with rubies

Extraordinary ability: greatly enhances the charm of the wearer, possesses a certain degree of witch characteristics, and can also create occult viruses and bacteria, spreading a wide range of plague diseases. The first ten minutes will not be affected, but as the spread range and time increase, the negative effects will accelerate

Negative effect: Wearing it for a long time will gradually corrupt the holder and gradually transform him into a Beyonder of the Witch Sequence.]

"."

This wave directly silenced Uchiha Sogetsuki.

The mission rewards can’t be said to be bad, but they are a bit inappropriate.

The side effects of this thing are greater than its usefulness!

However, everything has two sides.

Although the side effects are serious, it is not completely useless.

After a little thought, Uchiha Sogetsu soon came up with an idea and a mysterious smile appeared on his face.

Oops, it seems more joyful.

At this time, the Hokage Building.

Nara Shikaku and Yamanaka Inoichi were about to leave, but were stopped by Sarutobi Hiruzen when they reached the door.

"Shikaku, Haiyi, you two wait a moment."

After the others walked away, Sarutobi Hiruzen coughed twice and gave a look to the Anbu.

Linjiao immediately understood and closed the door, then stood guard outside faithfully to prevent anyone from getting close and eavesdropping on what was going on inside.

"Shikaku, tell me what you think of Uchiha Munetsuki."

After Sarutobi Hiruzen sat down, he relit his pipe, and a sharp look flashed in his turbid eyes.

"The 'oddball' in the Uchiha clan can probably be described this way." Nara Shikaku pondered for a moment, recalling some of the details just now. After thinking about it for a while in his mind, he continued: "From the results of the first contact, he is a kind and polite young man with gentle manners."

His comments tended to be fair and he did not show any bias or malice because of his Uchiha identity.

From the facts, he really admired the young man Uchiha Munetsuki. He seemed to be full of unique charm, and his gentle temperament made people want to get close to him.

"Um"

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned slightly, obviously not very satisfied with this answer.

He took a few puffs of his cigarette, then turned his gaze to Yamanaka Haiyi and said, "Haiyi, tell me what you think of him."

Yamanaka Hai looked at his friend with a bitter look on his face. He had no opinion at all, but since his leader had spoken, he could only bite the bullet and rack his brains to say something nonsense: "Hokage-sama, I don't have much contact with him on weekdays, but... in Konoha, Uchiha Munetsuki has a good reputation."

Although it was said to deal with the leader, there is nothing wrong with this sentence.

Thanks to his special status as a psychologist, Uchiha Munetsuki has a good reputation among the ninjas of Konoha. Moreover, he is usually gentle and kind, without any rebelliousness or black spots, which is completely unlike the style of Uchiha, making him quite popular among the civilian class.

When mentioning Uchiha Sogetsu's name, you basically won't hear anything bad about him.

"Okay, I get it"

Sarutobi Hiruzen pinched his eyebrows and felt a little headache.

In fact, he also thought so at the beginning, and felt that Uchiha Sogetsu was a child who had potential and was suitable for training.

If it can be used properly, maybe it can become a helper to the Hokage faction like Uchiha Kagami, and by the way, it can also appease the restless Uchiha members.

But he couldn't stand Tuan Zang's constant nagging in his ears, which made his ears almost callused.

I don’t know if the three words “Uchiha” have offended Danzo. The old guy has been keeping an eye on Uchiha all day long and even tried hard to spread the Uchiha threat theory.

As he was scolded more and more often, he gradually became obsessed.

In particular, a sentence mentioned by Danzo left a deep impression on him, so he decided to investigate secretly.

"Hiruzen, have you forgotten the Uchiha clan's Mangekyō Sharingan?"

It was these words that brought Sarutobi Hiruzen's memory back to decades ago, to the man who was hidden in Konoha's history.

Uchiha Madara is one of the two founders of Konoha Village.

Although the Uchiha clan has not seen the Mangekyō for decades, he still has to care.

The three magatama may not be a concern, but for an Uchiha with a Mangekyō, it is hard to say what kind of trouble the already restless Uchiha will cause.

As the Hokage, he had to nip all threats in the bud.

"Shikaku, continue investigating."

Sarutobi Hiruzen let out a breath of foul air. He was a little tired from handling official business in recent days. "But be careful and try not to let him notice."

May 12, sunny

After two days of intravenous drip, I finally feel much better. I feel like I have restored the factory settings. I started to write and save drafts for the audience~ (To celebrate my recovery, I decided to buy a lottery ticket after get off work!)

Chapter 53: Danzo feels a chill on his back

After returning to the room, Uchiha Sogetsu had just sat down when he noticed something strange in the room.

On the table, there was a cup of brewed green tea, steaming.

"Long time no see. I thought something happened to you. How have you been lately?" His tone was casual and calm, as if he was greeting an old friend, and his eyes moved to the shadow in the corner of the room.

The next moment, the shadow in the corner of the room squirmed, and a figure squeezed out from the wall.

The man wore a white animal mask of the Anbu on his face. He knelt on one knee very respectfully, lowered his head and said in a hoarse voice: "Lord Sogetsu, I hope you can forgive me. Danzo has been very vigilant during this period. It was not until today that I found a chance to see you."

"Lift your head, Ryoma."

Uchiha Sogetsu didn't mean to blame anyone. His dark eyes revealed gentleness and calmness: "No need to apologize. I'm not blaming you."

Being stared at by those eyes, Long Ma felt the intoxicating warmth that he hadn't felt for a long time. It was as if the eyes of the young man in front of him had an indescribable and extremely magical power that soothed his uneasy heart and made him feel extremely "at ease".

"Yes, Master Munetsuki."

Longma really enjoys the feeling now, the kind of peace of mind that no one else can give him.

"It tastes good. You are thoughtful, Ryoma." Uchiha Sogetsu picked up the teacup on the table, put it to his lips and took a sip, then smiled and said, "Given your personality, you probably wouldn't come to see me casually, so let me guess. It's Danzo who has some intention towards me, right?"

"No, my tea art is still very rough, I just hope you like it."

Ryoma couldn't hide his excitement, and drank the tea he brewed without any doubt. This alone made him much better than the rat in the gutter, so he said, "Lord Sogetsu, Danzo and the Third Hokage are secretly investigating you. Do you need my intervention?"

“Why intervene?”

Uchiha Sogetsu asked him back in a calm tone.

"I'm worried that if the investigation continues, it is very likely that..." Ryoma didn't say the rest of the words, but there was no doubt that he was worried that Sougetsu would be exposed.

No matter how deeply it is hidden, there will inevitably be clues.
