Even though Mo Chen deliberately slowed down his speed, he still finished five hundred laps very quickly.
"Huh! Huh! Huh! What kind of pervert is this guy? He didn't even break a sweat!"
"Forget about sweating. He didn't even breathe heavily. He wasn't tired at all after running 500 laps!"
A group of children who were dissatisfied with Mo Chen fell to the ground to rest, gritting their teeth as they looked at Mo Chen, who was neither red-faced nor out of breath.
Mo Chen was too lazy to care about their gazes. At this moment, he was admiring his attribute panel.
[Host: Mo Chen]
[Strength: 29]
[Speed: 52]
[Constitution: 50]
[Spirit: 27]
[Chakra: 1012]
[Talent: Space Talent LV3]
[Physical Skills: Shuriken Basic LV2, Basic Physical Skills LV3, Konoha Great Cyclone LV4]
[Ninjutsu: Great Fireball Technique LV5, Earth Flow Wall Technique LV4, Earth Dragon Bullet Technique LV3, Substitute Technique LV6]
Both speed and physique more than doubled, and both exceeded 50 points.
Now, even without using chakra, Mo Chen's body was strong enough to fight against ordinary Genin.
For a moment, Mo Chen felt more comfortable looking at these staggering little kids, but when he saw the looks from those lolis, his face immediately turned cold again.
He originally thought that Danzo's gaze was scary enough, but now the gazes of these lolis were so hot that they almost set Mo Chen's clothes on fire.
If you give them a good look, won't they pounce on you immediately?
The children's performances were all seen by everyone on the podium, and Mo Chen naturally could not hide it from them since he did not use his full strength.
"Sarutobi, I want the child who got first place. The Root is the best place for him to develop."
After hearing Danzo's words, everyone looked at him as if he was a fool. Mo Chen's name had already spread among the upper echelons of Konoha. Why are you pretending?
Besides, he is my adopted brother from four generations ago, and a die-hard supporter from three generations ago. How could I possibly give him to you? What the hell are you thinking?
But what was surprising was that when the Third Generation heard Danzo's words, he did not immediately object, but sat there in deep thought.
"You're dreaming!" Kushina exploded on the spot, her red hair moving without wind, and she threatened: "If you dare to hit on Xiaotian, I will tear your roots off!"
"Kushina, calm down!" Minato stepped forward and held Kushina's delicate hand, then turned to Danzo and said coldly: "I have my own arrangements for my brother's development, so you don't have to worry about it, Danzo!"
Hearing what the two said, Danzo's face looked extremely ugly. He didn't expect that in just two months, Minato and Kushina would actually confront him head-on for such an orphan.
However, he still did not give up, but set his sights on the third generation.
It is precisely because he knows the concerns of the Third Generation that he speaks at this time.
"I will arrange the future of this child myself, Danzo, don't worry too much, and you can choose two of the remaining ones to join the Root."
Seeing Minato and Kushina's attitudes, the Third Hokage spoke slowly.
"Hmph, Sarutobi, you're going to regret this!"
Danzo's face turned completely blue, and he cursed the Third Generation for being indecisive.
He clearly wanted to suppress Minato's power so that he could secretly remove Minato from the position of Hokage, but he actually missed such an opportunity.
Mo Chen is not strong now, but he is only five years old. When he is fifteen years old, let's see how you, Sarutobi Hiruzen, will end up!
"Alas!" Looking at Danzo's departing back, the Third Hokage also sighed.
He didn't expect Minato and Kushina's attitude to be so firm, otherwise he would have agreed to Danzo's request.
He would spare no effort to do anything that could weaken Minato's power. This can be seen from the fact that Minato's three guards in the original work were only Chunins.
Mo Chen naturally didn't know about these things, but from the ever-changing expressions of several people, Mo Chen had some guesses.
"Now please allow the Third Generation Master to speak--!"
Seeing that everyone had rested enough, Yuanshan immediately gathered everyone together.
"Congratulations everyone on joining the Ninja School. From today on, you are all prospective ninjas. From now on..."
To Mo Chen, the speeches of the Third Generation sounded like an old lady's foot binding. They were so boring and long that the listeners felt drowsy.
"Where the leaves dance, the fire lives. The flames will continue to illuminate the village and allow new leaves to sprout."
After two full hours, the speech finally ended, and Mo Chen couldn't wait to applaud.
"Pah pah pah pah!"
Amidst a round of applause, the Third Generation left with a gentle and kind smile, and gained a lot of little fans. However, Mo Chen was not one of them.
"Okay, now I'll announce the class list! Elite class: Mo Chen, Uchiha Kai, Hyuga Charen, Akimichi Ding Kai, Nara Shikaku, etc., a total of 28 people!"
"Ordinary class: Passerby A, Passerby B, Passerby C, a total of thirty-three people!"
"Ordinary Class 2:"
Mo Chen was too lazy to listen to anything other than the elite class. As he had guessed, most of the elite class were family children, with only two or three common children.
After announcing the class list, Mr. Yuanshan announced the disbandment and asked everyone to come to school on time the next day.
After knowing his class assignment, Mo Chen turned around and left the school, walking towards Minato and Kushina who were waiting for him at the school gate.
"I'm going out first!"
After returning home, Mo Chen took out the book "Ninja Breaking the Sky" he had prepared and left home. Taking advantage of the time he had today, he planned to find a publishing house to publish his book.
Konoha Publishing House.
After finding the publishing house of his choice, Mo Chen strode in, displaying his style as the younger brother of the future Fourth Hokage to the fullest.
Mo Chen couldn't take advantage of these vampires by himself, so he could only rely on the power of Minato and Kushina.
"My dear, what book do you want to buy?"
"I'm the younger brother of Konoha's jonin Minato Namikaze, and I'm here to publish a book!"
Acting like a second-generation rich man, Mo Chen threw the notebook in his hand into his boss's arms with a "snap".
Before coming here, he had found out that this publishing house had a ninja background, so they often bullied and exploited authors.
Therefore, he had to intimidate the other party, otherwise Mo Chen doubted whether he could get even one tenth of the royalties earned by Ren Po Cang Qiong.
"Okay, okay, I'll arrange it right away!"
Hearing this, the boss had no doubts at all and agreed tremblingly without even discussing the issue of royalties.
Behind him was just an ordinary jonin, who had no ability to compete with Minato. And no one in Konoha dared to pretend to be Minato's relative.
He is not afraid of Minato himself, because Minato is reasonable. The boss is really afraid of Kushina!
A few years ago, because Jiraiya gave Minato a copy of Intimate Paradise, Kushina was so angry that she tore his book into ruins and warned him not to continue publishing it.
"Wait, let's talk about the royalties first." Mo Chen reached out to stop the boss who was about to leave with the book, and said, "I won't bully you. I'll take 70% of the royalties, and you can take 30%. How about that?"
"Okay, it's settled!" The boss didn't dare to have any objections. He immediately took the contract signed by Mo Chen and sent Mo Chen out the door.
