Chapter 22: the Strength of the Third Hokage in His Prime

[Name: Sarutobi Hiruzen]

[Chakra: 170000]

[Potential: S]

[Evaluation: Excellent at combining ninjutsu. Proficient in all 5 chakra natures. Mastered all of Konoha's techniques. No kage could beat him one on one.]

"The Third Hokage in his prime." Seeing the string of zeros of chakra, Makoto, who walked out of the office, was surprised and a little envious.

After all, this was a total of 170,000 chakras, 130,000 more than the last time he saw Minato.

However, Minato is only eighteen years old now, so it doesn't make much sense to compare a middle-aged ninja in his prime with a growing ninja.

"How should I write a report after I go back..." Surprised, Makoto was already thinking about how to write a report to Danzo.

It's just an excuse that he doesn't have time to think carefully. Although he is not idle, it's not like he can't spare some time a week to teach Asuma.

Makoto could feel that the Third Hokage was trying to win his favor, otherwise he wouldn't have said that he was an outstanding teacher, especially a jounin.

But the sincerity of the Third Hokage is too little, and there is no benefit, just a pie in the sky.

If Hiruzen directly revealed his identity when he entered the office and asked whether he wanted to follow him, Makoto would definitely kick Danzo out and follow Hiruzen.

But now the Third Hokage doesn't ask him to reveal his identity. It seems that he is still hesitating, and the old scumbag is showing off.

If he agreed directly, Danzo wouldn't be able to get any favors from him, so he might as well find an excuse to not give an answer for the time being and throw the question to Danzo.

As for whether the Third Hokage would not know his identity, Makoto could only say that it was not impossible, but it was probably unlikely.

After all, Gen is an existence that cannot be put on the stage. If the Third Hokage does not even know that a Root ninja has entered the ninja school, his role as Hokage and principal will be in vain.

After returning to the office, the teachers asked Makoto curious questions.

"Teacher Hosakawa, why did the Third Master ask you to go? Is it a reward?" Aya Ueda asked curiously.

"It should be so. After all, the test scores are so good this time. I am still a new teacher. Teacher Hosakawa is too strong." Ikari Isamu sighed, and he was convinced by Makoto.

"It's a confirmation of my teaching achievements." Makoto sat down and took out a pen and paper, then thought about it and said.

"When will I be recognized by the Third Hokage?" Kimura Sugito only felt that there was a huge gap between people.

He still remembered how young Makoto was when he first came here, and he didn't expect that he would surpass his senior in teaching achievements so quickly.

"Just try your best to teach students." Makoto said while practicing calligraphy.

"Teacher Makoto, could you please help me finish class this afternoon? I have something to do." Ikari Isamu poured a glass of water for Makoto and said.

"Okay, I'm free in the afternoon." Makoto nodded and agreed.

"Teacher Hosakawa, I understand why those students like you." Ikari Isamu quickly thanked him.

"By the way, Sugito, please lend me some money and I'll pay you back when your salary is paid." Immediately after, Isamu said to Kimura Sugito.

Originally, he wanted to borrow it from Makoto, but he felt embarrassed when he thought that he had asked Makoto to take over his classes so many times.

"How much do you want to borrow?" asked Kimura Sugito. He and Ikeya Isamu are old friends, so it's okay to borrow some money.

"Eighty thousand Ryo will be enough." Ikari Isamu thought for a while and said.

"Eighty thousand Ryo, what are you going to borrow for?" Kimura paused as he was about to take out the money.

The monthly salary of a teacher in their ninja school is only one hundred thousand Ryo, so Ikari Isamu directly borrowed more than half of it.

Although it doesn't mean you can't borrow it, you have to ask clearly.

Makoto also looked sideways. The Naruto's setting was that one Ryo equals ten yen, so Isamu directly borrowed 80,000 Ryo, which is equivalent to borrowing 800,000 yen.

It might not be a big deal to those powerful ninjas, but it was still a lot to a chuunin teacher.

"It's a date. I can't invite people to eat ramen," Isamu explained.

"You're not going to spend all your salary on dating, are you?" Kimura looked at Ikari Isamu with the eyes of a big enemy.

"If you use it for a date, doesn't it mean it's for yourself? It's not like I haven't eaten." Ikari Isamu tried to argue.

"Stop talking, if you were alone, would you like to go to those high-end restaurants to eat?" Aya Ueda complained.

She had warned Isamu a long time ago, but she couldn't persuade him.

"She doesn't like you at all, she just treats you as a meal ticket." Aya Ueda tried to wake up Isamu.

"How is that possible? She called me Brother Isamu the day before yesterday." Isamu retorted with a look of fascination on his face.

"Eighty thousand Ryo at once, believe it or not, she will make you bankrupt." Aya Ueda said expressionlessly, her calling you "brother" will not help you when you sleep at the streets.

"Are you..."

"Forget it, I'll lend it to you. Remember to leave some money for yourself." Kimura sighed and finally lent the money to Isamu.

Hearing that Kimura was willing to lend money, Isamu couldn't care less about the weird Ueda Aya, and quickly thanked Kimura and left the office.

Makoto thought that if the Hokage also made a short video and made a series of videos about Icon Isamu's daily life in the office, it might be popular, so he wouldn't be short of money.

After complaining in his heart, Makoto quickly concentrated on practicing calligraphy. It was not until class was approaching that Makoto stopped writing and went to the classroom.

As soon as Makoto entered the classroom, the students in the classroom began to get excited.

"That's great, it's Teacher Makoto who is here to teach ninjutsu."

"After taking Teacher Makoto's class last time, my transformation skills are much more refined than before. I hope I will focus on the clone technique this time."

Makoto took a quick glance, everything is fine but Obito is not here again.

Five minutes after Makoto started class, Obito rushed into the classroom in a sprinting state.

Obito was dumbfounded when he saw Makoto standing on the podium.

He wondered why he was not late every day, so why did he feel that every time he was late, he would be bumped into Makoto's substitute class? Wouldn't this lower his image in Makoto's heart?

"Teacher Makoto, I..." Obito wanted to explain something.

"Sit down." Makoto motioned for Obito to sit down, and then began to teach the clone technique as requested by most students.

"Damn Mr. Isamu, why didn't you inform us that Mr. Makoto would take over the class!" Obito complained, clenching his fists.

During the break, Makoto called Obito and Might Gai out and asked about the test results.

"Passed!" Obito and Might Gai said together with their heads held high.

Makoto asked carefully and found that the two of them were really stuck in passing the test. The average score was sixty, and they just passed thirty.

"I don't know why, but the results this time are better than before. Twenty-five points was enough to pass." Obito said, scratching his head. He also felt that it was very extreme.

"Maybe it's because Teacher Makoto came to take over the class." Might Gai said.

Even someone like him, who has a hard time learning, can clearly feel the difference between Makoto and other teachers.

"Ah? Then shouldn't it be higher next time?" Obito was dumbfounded. He couldn't do it any higher.

"Passing is my most basic requirement for you. If you can't do it, then you have to listen to my arrangements." Makoto showed a kind smile.

If they fail, the reward will probably be even lower.

Obito and Might Gai looked at Makoto's smile, and once again thought of the horror of being dominated by brush scrolls, they shuddered for a moment, and then quickly said that they would pass next time.

Makoto returned home, wrote out the report, and submitted it. Not long after, he got a reply.
