Acquired memories from your future self?
This sentence really made Hiruzen Sarutobi, who considers himself a well-informed third-Hokage, also a little confused.
So much so that he was stunned for a while before he said, "What do you mean by that? Can you tell me more about it?"
Zhou Xuan nodded and began to tell the story that he had made up.
"A week ago, one night, while I was sleeping, I suddenly felt a terrible headache, and immediately afterward, I found so many more memories in my head that I didn't have originally! After checking these memories, I found that these were a lot of things that hadn't happened yet, and some information about ninjutsu that I hadn't learned yet!"
"At first, I thought I was in some kind of genjutsu, but after trying many methods, these memories still exist, as if I had really experienced them! Moreover, those ninjutsu in my memory that I learned later, except for some that have limitations because of chakra, I can basically perform them all!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen listened attentively, and then asked, "Then what?"
"Then, I decided to verify the authenticity of the things in my memory that hadn't happened. It just so happened that I was going to take the Chunin exam, and this memory had some information about the Chunin exam, so I wanted to verify whether these memories were real or not at the time of the Chunin exam."
Zhou Xuan continued: "When I entered the first round of the Chunin exam, I first found that all the exam questions were exactly the same as I remembered, and even during the exam, the people sitting around me, were also exactly the same! Then, in the second round, according to my memory, two main things happened, the first was that the sand ninja's Gaara, would go around killing people in the exam training ground, and the second was that Orochimaru would attack Uchiha Sasuke!"
Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen face dawned: "So, after you entered the exam training ground, you trailed the sand ninja Gaara, in order to verify the first thing? Then, you found Sasuke and his team, in order to verify the second thing?"
"Yes!"
Zhou Xuan nodded solemnly and said, "I found that these two things were basically exactly the same as what I knew from my memory! However, I still couldn't believe that this thing was true, and then, when it came to the preliminary round, I was supposed to withdraw from the competition, but I chose to stay to see if things would appear different from what I remembered."
Sarutobi Hiruzen's face became a little more curious and asked, "What's the result?"
Zhou Xuan said: "The result is indeed different. In my memory, because the number of people who decided to participate in the preliminaries was exactly 20, it started immediately. But now because of my appearance, there was one more participating in the preliminaries. So a special lottery was held, but I didn't expect that I just happened to get the blank ticket."
Sarutobi Hizan suddenly said: "Then why did you appear in the treatment room? The medical staff said you said you were going to visit Yoroi Akadō?"
"Yes!"
Zhou Xuan nodded and said again: "The reason why I appear there is that I know from memory that Orochimaru will appear there when Kakashi-sensei seals the curse mark for Sasuke. So, I just wanted to verify one more thing, and as a result, Orochimaru appeared, but what I didn't expect was that I would actually arouse Orochimaru's interest, and let him plant a curse mark on me!"
"So that's how it is!" Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded.
Of course, although Zhou Xuan's remarks made sense, it was obviously too unbelievable for him to accept it for a while.
After all, it's unbelievable to get one's own future memories!
Therefore, Sarutobi Hiruzen asked a lot of things later, such as some things that Zhou Xuan could not have known, and some important things that Zhou Xuan said might happen in the future.
Zhou Xuan answered them one by one.
After hearing this, Sarutobi was somewhat silent.
After a while, he said helplessly: "It's still too bizarre, even if there are many things that are quite reasonable, I still can't believe it for a while."
Zhou Xuan also said understandingly: "I know, otherwise I wouldn't have done so many risky things before, trying to figure out the authenticity of my memory!"
After a slight pause, he suddenly said: "By the way, Lord Hokage, as far as I know, there is a secret technique in the Yamanaka clan that can read the memory of the human brain. I can open up my memory and let Lord Hokage see it with his own eyes. If this is the case, perhaps Hokage-sama will believe it!"
"You even know about this!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen gave Zhou Xuan a deep look again.
In fact, when he heard this, he had already believed it a little more.
After all, whether it is the secret techniques of the Yamanaka clan, or the other secrets that Zhou Xuan just mentioned, many of them are basically impossible for him to know as a mere genin.
However, the specific authenticity, Sarutobi Hiruzen still wants to take a look at it with his own eyes!
Therefore, he finally agreed with Zhou Xuan's suggestion and sent someone to invite Ino's father, who is now the patriarch of the Yamanaka clan, Inoichi Yamanaka!
