Chapter 18 Apply for Graduation

  Sarutobi Hiruzen widened his eyes, revealing a strong sense of horror.

  Fighting Itachi?

  How is this possible?

  Sarutobi Hiruzen knew Itachi's strength best. Itachi had already opened the Mangekyō Sharingan. Even the Third Hokage could not guarantee that he was Itachi's opponent.

  For a moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen stopped thinking. After calming down for a while, he began to look at Liu Yun seriously.

  "You and Itachi, who will win?"

  Sarutobi Hiruzen asked solemnly.

  Win or lose.

  Liu Yun pondered for a while. If it was just about strength, he thought that his strength was far superior to Itachi, but Itachi also had illusions and Amaterasu, Susanoo and other abilities.

  Besides, he didn't fight Itachi with all his strength.

  "Fifty-fifty." Liu Yun replied lightly.

  Hiss!

  Sarutobi Hiruzen took a breath of cold air and fought Itachi fifty-fifty. Doesn't that mean that the eleven-year-old Liu Yun in front of him already has the strength of a shadow?

  Of course, whether Liu Yun said it was true or not remains to be confirmed, but the little guy in front of him is definitely not simple.

  This mentality, this cunning, if Liu Yun's identity was not clean, Sarutobi might have regarded Liu Yun as a threat.

  "With your strength, there is no need to study in the Ninja School."

  "Yes, Third-generation Lord, this time I came to apply to you for early graduation."

  Liu Yun said simply.

  "I agree with your application. With your strength, there is really no need to stay in the Ninja School."

  "But in order to confirm your strength, I will arrange for a jonin to test your strength."

  "No problem."

  Sarutobi Hiruzen loved the geniuses in the village and admired civilian geniuses very much, but it was still difficult for him to let go of Liu Yun in front of him.

  Liu Yun's personality and cunning were not as simple as Namikaze Minato. When he saw Liu Yun for the first time, Sarutobi Hiruzen knew that it would be difficult for the village to control and restrain such a person.

  "No problem, Third-generation Lord."

  It was just a jonin. Even an elite jonin like Kakashi, Liu Yun had the confidence to defeat him. Besides, it was just a test of strength and there was no need to exert 100% of his strength.

  After Liu Yun left, Sarutobi Hiruzen lowered his head and sighed.

  "Things are a little out of control."

  It's true that Liu Yun is a genius, but if a genius grows too fast, people will be afraid of him, because such a person is easy to get out of control.

  Especially Sarutobi Hiruzen who has experienced Orochimaru's rebellion.

——The

  next day, Sarutobi Hiruzen slightly leaned his head and looked at Danzo who was holding a cane on the other side of the office.

  "Danzo, just tell me what you want to say."

  "If it's about Liu Yun, I still say the same thing, I won't give that child to you."

  Danzo looked at his old friend with a gloomy look.

  "Sarutobi, why don't you understand until now that only the root can train that child, and only powerful ninjas are qualified to bear the darkness of Konoha."

  "It's a waste of his talent to let other jonin guide him. As long as the child joins the root, I will personally guide the child."

  "That child is not Minato, he will not be easily bound by others."

  Danzo said with a cold and bewitching look.

  To have the ability to cut off the mountain, that kid must have some secrets that cannot be revealed. As long as he gets this secret skill, the position of Hokage is within reach.

  "No, no matter what you say, I will not hand this child over to the Root. The Root is not suitable for him."

  "Sarutobi, you are still so naive."

  "You will regret it sooner or later."

  Danzo snorted coldly and left the Hokage's office unhappily.

  Looking at the departing back, Sarutobi Hiruzen muttered to himself.

  "Danzo, the little guy's strength has been out of the control of the Root. He does not belong to the Root, he belongs to Konoha."

  "We old guys will continue to illuminate the village and let the new leaves sprout."

  Another ninja with swordsmanship reaching the level of Kage, for Konoha, which has lost the Uchiha clan, Liu Yun is very important to Konoha.

——The

  graduation application is scheduled in the afternoon, so Liu Yun is not in a hurry. Naruto is now a student in the upper middle of the ninja school.

  And now he has no good ninjutsu to teach Naruto, so let the timeline proceed according to the original work.

  Came to the Hyuga family.

  Hyuga Hiashi and Liu Yun sat at the table. Hinata opened the door, made tea and sat down at the table for the two.

  "I applied for early graduation."

  Liu Yun said calmly.

  Hinata Hiashi, who was holding the tea cup, suddenly stopped and the cup was suspended in the air, but he quickly recovered.

  "With your ability, you can indeed apply for early graduation."

  "Liu Yunjun"

  Hinata bit her upper lip and hesitated, and suddenly a trace of determination flashed in her eyes.

  "Father, I also want to apply for early graduation with Liu Yunjun."

  "No."

  Hyuga Hiashi refused without thinking.

  Hinata's face turned pale instantly.

  Hyuga Hiashi also saw the change in Hinata's strength with his own eyes, but Hinata is the eldest daughter of the Hyuga family and now Hinata is better than Neji.

  Hinata will become the head of the Hyuga family in the future.

  And Hyuga Hiashi does not intend to let Hinata be exposed to the darkness and filth of the ninja world at a young age.

  "Why, father, even if my strength is not as good as Liu Yunjun, it is still stronger than the average Genin."

  "Now I have nothing to learn in the ninja school."

  Hinata said unwillingly.

  Continuing in the ninja school will only make the gap with Liu Yunjun bigger and bigger. Hinata wants to follow Liu Yun's footsteps and not be left behind.

  "You are the eldest daughter of the Hyuga family. It is not enough to be strong to become a ninja. If you interfere in the affairs of ninjas at will, you will lose your life."

  Hyuga Hiashi looked at Hinata seriously.

  Although on the surface Hyuga Hiashi seemed indifferent to Hinata, Hinata was his eldest daughter. How could Hiashi ignore his love for his daughter?

  Liu Yun was different from Hinata. That mentality, that calmness, and that sharp edge could no longer be concealed.

  Hyuga Hiashi seemed to see the former Konoha White Fang again.

  "Hinata, uncle is right. The hands of a real ninja are stained with blood."

  Liu Yun agreed with Hiashi. Hinata's current strength can indeed fight with the Chunin, but such strength is still too weak.

  There are many powerful ninjas hidden in the ninja world. The freaks of

  Akatsuki alone are not inferior to the Kage in strength. And you have to know that Hyuga Hinata has the Byakugan. The blood of the Hyuga clan will definitely be targeted by the villages of other clans.
