Chapitre 14: Chapter-14 Ambitions!
When something called 'ambition' burned in his heart, Kuroto thoughts became more agile.
White Fang, the Kage-level powerhouses of Sannin's generation, either died, left, defected, or escaped. Now there is only Jiraiya left who is not ambitious for taking the position of Hokage.
Among the Kage-level powerhouses of Yondaime Hokage-sama and second-generation Kyuubi jinchuuriki's generation, there were only Hokage-sama and Kyuubi jinchuuriki themselves with true Kage level combat power, others of the same generation like the Hyuga Hiashi, Uchiha Fugaku, and other Patriarch, although not bad in terms of strength but still can not be classified as true Kage level in combat effectiveness.
This simply reveals the loss of talent Konoha experienced due to several losses. This is a huge period of crises for the current Konoha, but for Kuroto, it's the Golden opportunity of a lifetime.
Because for him, the only real competitors are Kakashi, Gai, Asma, Shisui, Itachi, and other ninjas of the same generation.
And out of these both Shisui and Itachi, the two powerful ninjas of the younger generation are of the Uchiha Clan, because of the tension between the Uchiha Clan and the village, the stronger their strength, the more cautious village authorities will be against them, so they can be excluded from posing any competition.
"In the future, this will be my stage!"
Kuroto is very sure of this in his heart, and this is not only his confidence in himself but also his hope for the future!
Kuroto now faces only two problems stopping him from taking the position of Hokage.
First is his Tensigan: Although the Hyuga clansmen generally do not activate Byakygan when in the village, but if someone happens to activate Byakugan in his presence, then his Tenseigan will be exposed immediately, after all, there is a clear difference between Tenseigan and Byakugan.
The second problem is his identity: Kuroto was Orochimaru's old subordinate.
Kuroto hasn't come up with any good solution to deal with the first problem, since he can't deactivate Tenseigan so the best he can do is to temporarily avoid the Hyuga clansmen.
As for the second problem, considering the shortage of manpower in the village right now, and now that the attention of the village leaders will be directed towards the Uchiha Clan, Kuroto feels that it might not be too difficult for him to solve it as long as he works properly.
But then Kuroto's face sank again, the status of a chunin promoted during wartime is too low, anyone can step on them as long as it is for their convenience.
Because of the experience during the past few months, Kuroto was really fed and aggrieved, the helplessness he felt, the resentment and anger for becoming a cleansing target, and the sorrow brought by the helplessness in being unable to do anything made him understand one simple truth.
If you don't want to be stepped on, then climb to the highest stair.
"In Konoha, I need a different status, a status completely different from the mediocre one I had in the past!" And when Kuroto thought of a method to improve his status, Kuroto subconsciously thought of Yondaime Hokage-sama.
Yes, Yonndaime-sama is the best representative of the story of a mere civilian ninja becoming someone to be highly revered by all the ninjas alive in the current ninja world.
If Yondaime-sama's characteristics have to be summarized, then Kuroto's mind instantly thinks of the words, Powerful, Sunny, and high-profile'.
The crueler the war the more dazzling he appears.
In fact it won't be wrong to say that the third shinobi world war was the stage that allowed Namikaze Minato to obtain the position of Konoha's Yondaime Hokage, the highest authority of a Konoha, even though he was born as a civilian.
Now that the was is over, Kuroto must also develop a higher profile than Yondaime Hokage-sama if he wants to gain a huge reputation.
He must show up in front of everyone with an incomparable strong posture so that everyone can understand his power so that when people consider Hokage's successor, he will subconsciously flash in their minds.
Of course, the change of personal settings needs to be done step by step and should not be rushed, otherwise, it will inevitably arouse suspicion among the village leaders.
After making up his mind, Kuroto no longer delays and immediately moves.
In peacetime, the fastest way to show off your talent is through task completion, and a good-looking task resume is also an important basis for promotion.
After making up his mind, Kuroto immediately came to the mission center.
Compared with usual, today's mission center is slightly deserted.
When he came to the counter, Kuroto said to the staff responsible: "I am Chunin Hyuga Kuroto. Could you please show me which B-level tasks can be claimed!"
The staff verified Kuroto's identity and handed him a task list: "These are all B-level tasks. You'd better pick the first few pages. Those employers are waiting in a hurry."
Kuroto also knew that there was a serious shortage of manpower in the village right now, and many tasks were overstocked, so he didn't say much, and immediately checked the task list.
The village's classification of tasks is very rigorous. Jonin can accept all tasks including S-level, Chunin can only accept B-level to D-level tasks, and lower-level Ninja can only accept C-level to D-level tasks.
These tasks are further explained:
S-level tasks are generally commissioned by certain forces, mainly assassinating important personnel, stealing confidential information, etc.
Most of the A-level missions are also commissioned by certain forces, mainly protecting key personnel and crusade against traitors.
B-level to D-level tasks are generally commissioned by individuals, of which B-level and C-level tasks will encounter combat, and D-level tasks will not have combat.
Since Kuroto is Chunin, and he has the strength of a Tokubetsu Jonin without using Sandaime Kazekage's puppet, so choosing the B-level mission is the most suitable choice.
After briefly checking the task list, Kuroto frowned.
The tasks on the task list are nothing in terms of difficulty, but most of the tasks have requirements for the number of people. The least demanding of them also requires a team of at least two ninjas to receive.
At this time, a short figure appeared in front of the working window next to Kuroto.
Kuroto glanced at it from the side of the light, and then he was taken aback.
This little guy is none other than, the genius of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Itachi!
Although he was only six or seven years old, Itachi had already shown maturity far beyond his age at this time, the little guy looked was more mature than many adults from his thought process, and here he was quietly flipping through the task list rigorously.
After a while, Itachi handed the task list back to the staff and asked a little childishly: "Excuse me, is there no C-level task that can be claimed by a single person?"
The staff at the window of Itachi seems to have been used to dealing with the Uchiha clan. He was not surprised that a six or seven-year-old child asked to receive a C-level task alone. He just shook his head normally: "No, you have to think about it. If you receive a C-level mission, you should find a ninja you know to form a team."
Hearing this, Itachi was a little distressed, and whispered: "It seems that I can only wait for Shisui to return to the village."
Kuroto smiled: "Hey kid, you haven't graduated yet?"
Itachi replied politely: "Because of the reconstruction, the school took a four-month vacation."
Kuroto did not expect that the Ninja School was also destroyed in the Kyuubi Rebellion, and said, "Since it's a holiday, stay at home. It's dangerous for you to go on a mission alone."
Itachi replied with a serious face: "Now the village is understaffed, and many tasks are backlogged. If no one is doing it for a long time, it will have a great impact on the prestige of the village,"
Kuroto was startled, not knowing what to say for a while.
After taking a look at Kuroto, Itachi asked, "Excuse me, senpai, are you Chunin?"
Kuroto nodded.
Itachi smiled with joy: "Senpai, are you short of a teammate? My name is Uchiha Itachi. Although I haven't graduated yet, I am already a qualified ninja."
Kuroto shook his head and said: "I want to take on a B-level mission, you are not suitable."
At this moment, the village was suspicious of the Uchiha clan. Kuroto's personal troubles have not been completely eliminated yet, so he didn't want to have anything to do with the Uchiha clan.
Itachi said quickly: "I have checked the B-level mission, and there is no mission that a single person can take, so you must also need a member, senpai."
Kuroto pondered for a while and felt that in the future it was indispensable to deal with the powerful Uchiha clan, so it was necessary to understand the Uchiha clan's fighting methods in advance.
Itachi is one of the most dazzling genii in this generation in Uchiha clansmen, and establishing a personal relationship with him earlier may have some unexpected benefits.
After calculating all these thoughts, with a smile, Kuroto who had an idea said: "Okay, but everything must be under my instructions, and you can't act without authorization."
Itachi hurriedly bowed to Kuroto: "Please rest assured, senpai."
