Konoha really needs the growth of the new generation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, he is even more eager than Jiraiya to see a new 'Minato' appear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's just that I don't know if that child can learn the Flying Thunder God Technique, but even if he can't, it's nothing...\" Sarutobi Hiruzen muttered to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This wasn't him looking down on Takemi. It's just that the Flying Thunder God Technique is just too difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, Minato wasn't the only one to try to learn it over the years, but only he succeeded after the Second Hokage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"With that Purple Electricity, plus enough combat experience, he won't be any worse than anyone else.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarutobi Hiruzen hummed a tune in his heart as he walked towards home. But as he walked, he noticed a signal from the Anbu hidden in the shadows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking up, he saw a little guy holding a large pot and looking around near his front door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Naruto?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarutobi Hiruzen was a bit confused. He subtly waved his hand to signal the Anbu to withdraw, and a kind smile appeared on his face as he walked over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah, Grandpa Hokage, I finally found you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto immediately got excited when he heard the voice. He ran over with the large pot, and Sarutobi Hiruzen reached out and rubbed Naruto's head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is it, Naruto? Do you need something from me so late?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Here...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto held up the large pot and handed it over, saying with a smile on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Grandpa Hokage, this is for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarutobi Hiruzen was a bit confused, while Naruto rubbed the back of his head and laughed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is soup I made myself, Grandpa Hokage, please try it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Soup?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarutobi Hiruzen felt a strange sense of emotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suppressing his thoughts, he asked with a smile, \"What made you think of bringing it to me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well, it's because of Takemi. He said I should respect the old and cherish the young, so...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Takemi?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Naruto's answer, the smile on Sarutobi Hiruzen's face became even brighter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The power of example is very important!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Takemi used to always take advantage of Naruto, he also knew that he was truly poor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus, Naruto himself didn't mind and he even gained a cherishable friendship. Now it seems this is a good thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You've grown up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled and took the pot from Naruto's hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you, Naruto, I will definitely savor the fruits of your labor!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're welcome.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto shrugged and laughed carelessly, then suddenly remembered something and pursed his lips with a bit of displeasure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, right, Grandpa Hokage, there's one more thing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That bastard Takemi later advised me not to bring it, but I didn't listen to him. So he asked me to tell Grandpa Hokage that you must look carefully first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Look carefully?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarutobi Hiruzen was a bit confused. He casually opened the lid of the pot, and then his face turned green.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the pot were colorful mushrooms!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where... where did you get these?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarutobi Hiruzen asked tremblingly, while Naruto shrugged, not understanding why.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"From the forest behind the mountain, there were tons there! And they were free, they must look delicious too, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Naruto speechlessly, then turned to look at the pot in his hand. He finally understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That kid Takemi saw the problem but couldn't persuade Naruto, so he just gave up and threw the problem to him, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he is nice, his personality is indeed a bit mischievous, just like Jiraiya said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Here, Grandpa Hokage.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he was thinking, Naruto's big, sparkling eyes blinked at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hurry and try it, this is the result of my hard work stewing for a long time...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt like he shouldn't ruin the atmosphere, and maybe he really should take a sip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.....\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You kid, what did you do now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next day, in a training ground in Konoha, Kakashi stared at the completely innocent-looking Takemi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't look like that, okay? Do you know? Late last night, Lord Hokage held a meeting, emphasizing the need to strengthen cognitive education in the Ninja Academy, especially regarding various poisonous substances.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He even specifically kept Jiraiya-sama and me back, telling us to strengthen the education of our disciples, especially in enhancing their sense of responsibility. Can you say this has nothing to do with you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Takemi gave an awkward laugh. Actually, he really couldn't be blamed. He mentioned it to Naruto as a joke but he took it seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Takemi reluctantly tried to persuade him but found it useless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he stopped trying to persuade him. To avoid blame, he didn't forget to force Naruto to remind Sarutobi Hiruzen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He just didn't expect Sarutobi Hiruzen's reaction to be so strong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Honestly...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Takemi not speaking, Kakashi sighed helplessly, covering his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lord Hokage was already dissatisfied with some situations in the Ninja Academy. Didn't you see it yourself when you graduated? Attacking your own people?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now, who knows what you've done again? Konoha is truly in chaos because of you...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, hey, hey, Kakashi-sensei, honestly, can you blame me for that graduation incident?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Takemi was a little unhappy, but he also felt guilty, because both of these incidents seemed closely related to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shaking his head, he immediately changed the subject, \"Alright, let's not talk about that, Kakashi-sensei. How are you feeling now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm alright, there shouldn't be any problems.\" Kakashi also seemed reluctant to continue this topic. He shook his head and said, then touched the eye covered by his headband.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's just that this Sharingan always feels a bit strange, probably because of that guy...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sharingan is a bit strange?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Takemi glanced at Kakashi. He felt this probably had little to do with Obito, but rather that this eye was truly about to react.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From what he knew, Kakashi was hit by Itachi's Tsukuyomi, and only then did he slowly begin to explore the secret of his Sharingan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if the effect isn't deep this time, it's not impossible that this incident has been brought forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mangekyo Sharingan...\" Takemi muttered to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he didn't have any particular thoughts about this eye, having such an eye would help him deal with Obito better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, with the corresponding exclusive side mission, maybe he can get something out of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, Jiraiya-sama has been taking care of you during this time. Now that I'm back, I need to catch up with your progress.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While Takemi was thinking, Kakashi shook his head and spoke again, \"Also, I heard you plan to apply for Chunin?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Takemi nodded and said, \"Yes, I think I can try. Although the number of missions might be a bit short, I think my abilities are fine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kakashi agreed, \"Indeed, I also think it's fine. After all, at your age, I think I was already a Jonin.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't worry about it, times are different now. But you still need to work hard.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Kakashi's exposed eye turn into a curve, Takemi really didn't want to say anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would have been better if he hadn't said anything.\u003C\u002Fp>",1275,"2026-06-10T06:42:00.326Z",1,"novelbin.me","42f649e2dda126a6215a666e8c99b204f06f8c9fbcb4489b8ccb8839fee07b6e","naruto-what-kind-of-starter-pack-is-13-years-lat-chapter-44","naruto-what-kind-of-starter-pack-is-13-years-lat-chapter-42",522,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fnaruto-what-kind-of-starter-pack-is-13-years-lat-cover.jpg"]
