Chapter 12: ch12
Obito held his orange mask in his right hand and adjusted it slightly.
"Hehe, Uchiha Nanaya, interesting!"
Uchiha Obito is a person who understands the current situation, and he knew that he could not defeat Nanaya today after just a few rounds of fighting.
Although Obito has yet to show his full strength, such as Wood Style and some other Forbidden Techniques of the Uchiha family, he sensed a danger from Nanaya that made it impossible for him to stay.
The surrounding space gradually became empty, and Obito's figure disappeared in front of Nanaya along with the distorted space.
The distorted space slowly recovered, and Obito's deep voice came from inside.
"Uchiha Nanaya, I believe we will meet again."
"Running away now, aren't you going to fight twice?"
After a brief encounter with Obito, Nanaya also gained an accurate understanding of his own strength.
Although Obito can't harm Nanaya, he can escape whenever he wants.
With Kamui's bug-like ability, at least the current Nanaya can't stop him.
Looking at the fully restored space, Nanaya murmured.
"Uchiha Obito, I'm your long-lost big brother."
Hearing his name, Obito's orange mask would have been shocked.
After all, he has been walking in the ninja world under the guise of Uchiha Madara for many years, and no one has ever called him by his real name.
The name Uchiha Obito has completely disappeared since the Battle of Kannabi Bridge in the Third Ninja World War.
"My true identity is revealed, Obito will probably kill me!"
Although Nanaya is not afraid, he has no reason to engage in a life-and-death battle with Obito.
Most people in the Uchiha clan are mentally unstable, and the more they are stimulated, the stronger their powers become.
Nanaya is not in this category; he will not be provoked at all.
Driven by emotion into desperate actions, willing to destroy the world for one person, this is Uchiha Obito.
Nanaya has a way to handle Obito.
1. His true identity.
2. The only thing that touches Obito's heart, Nohara Rin.
Master these two points, and Uchiha Obito is destined to be a "tool man" in front of Nanaya.
Today is Nanaya's first day as a Special Genin.
The place where Konoha receives missions is still very simple, far from being as luxurious as in the Boruto era decades later.
Decades later, the Konoha mission reception area is divided into A, B, C, D, and S floors.
Now, except for secret missions, the Third Hokage personally distributes them.
And so, Uchiha Nanaya was in the mission reception room, and the person standing in front of him was the Third Hokage.
Teacher Iruka and some others were waiting beside him.
Sarutobi Hiruzen took a deep breath and said earnestly, "Uchiha Nanaya, congratulations on graduating from the ninja school and becoming a Special Genin."
Listening to the Third Hokage's tone, Nanaya wondered if it was especially important or if he was really a Genin.
After the Uchiha clan was destroyed, Uchiha Nanaya became one of the only two remaining Uchiha clan members.
The Third Hokage naturally wanted to soothe their emotions.
Either Nanaya or Sasuke.
The Will of Fire poured out fervently.
Wherever the leaves fly, the fire will never stop.
Fortunately, Nanaya came through; otherwise, he might have believed it.
Like Sasuke, now he just wants revenge and to kill Uchiha Itachi.
What the Third Hokage said, he didn't care.
Left ear goes in, right ear goes out.
Only Naruto, Little Sakura, and Kiba listened with interest.
Special Genin also has a special forehead protector that does not need to wear the Leaf symbol.
On the surface, it is considered for Genin.
To put it bluntly, it is still a Special Genin, not a full ninja, and is not qualified to wear a forehead protector.
If a Special Genin wears the forehead protector, it's an insult to the ninja.
For Konoha, it is also a shame.
These, Nanaya understands.
That Konoha forehead protector is so unattractive; he doesn't want it even if it's free.
Wearing it also hides his appearance.
Ha--(long sigh)
Nanaya yawned long and patted his mouth with his hand.
"Lord Hokage, can I go back to sleep?"
Hey--
The Third Hokage sighed.
After the Uchiha incident, he learned about Uchiha Nanaya from his former teacher.
He also read Nanaya's profile.
He doesn't have any friends and just doesn't get enough sleep all day.
When he was at the ninja school, he didn't do anything other than sleep.
If it weren't for the special status of the Uchiha clan, and his decent physical skills, he wouldn't have moved him to the Special Genin position as a Hokage.
Iruka on the side covered his cheek with his right hand, as if he didn't know Nanaya.
That is to say, who is this person? This is not my student; it has nothing to do with me; I don't know him.
"Nanaya, there is a D-class task assigned to you now."
"D-class mission, what is it?"
"Granny Piccolo's cat in the east of the village has been lost. Please look for it. This is a photo of the cat."
Nanaya glanced at it.
It is a black cat with sharp eyes, and its size is relatively large among cats.
There is also a small bell on its neck, which seems to be the type that often runs away from home.
Reward: 500 ryo!
Five hundred ryo, according to the living conditions of an ordinary villager, is enough for him for a week.
Iruka on the side cast an adoring look at Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"Master Hokage is really great, because he was afraid that Nanaya would have no financial resources by himself, so he deliberately chose a task to assign to him."
Iruka thinks too much; most of the D-class missions are like this.
The Third Hokage just wanted to strengthen Nanaya's sense of identity and belonging to the village, that's all.
"Nanaya, thank Lord Hokage soon."
"Oh, Lord Third Hokage, I've accepted this mission!"
Nanaya left after speaking.
Iruka shook his head helplessly.
"This guy, Nanaya, doesn't know how to respect elders at all."
"Hahaha..."
The Third Hokage squinted and laughed out loud.
"Iruka, don't blame Nanaya. After all, he just graduated from ninja school, so he still needs some time to get used to it!"
After a while, Nanaya found the black cat.
Taking the reward, he went home and fell asleep.
After waking up.
[Ding, congratulations to Host for completing a good night's sleep, acquiring Fire Style, Great Fireball Technique!]
[Fire Style, Impatiens Technique!]
[Fire Style, Dragon Fire Technique!]
[Fire Style, the fire is extinguished!]
...
Fire Style, has this thing ever burned anyone?
After sleeping for one night, Nanaya learned a variety of Fire Style ninjutsu.
Also, as a member of the Uchiha clan.
Not having a bit of Fire Style ninjutsu would be truly unreasonable.
These days, Nanaya is either doing D-class missions or sleeping.
He helped an old grandmother cross the road today; pay: 300 ryo.
Helped the villagers in the back mountain weed; reward: 1,000 ryo.
Helped construction workers build bridges; remuneration: 2,500 ryo.
...
Just like that, a month has passed.
[Ding, congratulations to Host for having a sweet dream while sleeping. You can choose one of the following two rewards.]
Holy crap, is the selection mode coming?
