"Nanaya-kun, you are looking farther than I am!"
Even strong as Orochimaru, he does not possess such confidence and ambition.
He thinks about what he can't obtain and considers destroying it.
And the man in front of him actually wanted to take control.
The Land of Fire, the largest country in the ninja world.
Konoha Village, once the largest village in the ninja world.
Controlling it is easier said than done.
Even though Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, who has been Hokage for many years, has used many means, it is not possible to speak of control.
By letting Namikaze Minato succeed his Hokage position, the Third Hokage played another pawn.
Weaken the Hyuga clan and destroy the Uchiha clan.
The forces that threatened him were basically driven out.
At least for now, with the exception of Danzo and his Root, the Third Hokage can be said to be firmly in power.
Taking control means playing it with applause, and even the Third Hokage can't do that yet.
The blood in Orochimaru's whole body boiled.
It is said that snakes are cold-blooded animals, but at this moment, Orochimaru was burning with excitement.
He wants to witness Nanaya's "wind."
Just like Sasuke during the Fourth Great Ninja War, he wants to see the flow of this wind.
Putting away the Kusanagi sword, Orochimaru's body slowly melted into the ground.
When his entire figure disappeared into the forest, a low and sinister voice followed.
"Nanaya-kun, if there is a chance, I would like to join your control. Our cooperation must be very pleasant."
Seeing Orochimaru's disappearing back, Nanaya's mouth curved into a smile.
Cooperation?
That is impossible.
Even Orochimaru, one of the Sannin, is not eligible.
There can only be one person in control, and that is him, Uchiha Nanaya.
Nanaya looked down at the pretty face lying on the ground, breathing evenly.
A slight smile appeared at the corners of her mouth, as if she had a sweet dream.
That's right, Anko is now free from the shackles of the Heaven's Curse Seal.
It can be said that she is completely free.
The nightmares that the curse of this day brought her will also vanish.
The afterglow of the setting sun has ended, and soon it will be night.
Nanaya draped Anko's grey trench coat over her body.
He patted her lightly.
"Anko-sensei, Anko-sensei, wake up, wake up, it's time to eat dango!"
Hearing the word "dango," Anko immediately opened her eyes.
"What, dango, where is the dango?"
Essentially, Anko is a foodie.
"Anko-sensei, you just passed out for no apparent reason. You promised to invite me to eat dango."
"Oh, right, yes, let's go now."
Anko laughed.
Touching her neck, she thought that it must have been because of the excessive use of Chakra that the curse mark was painful.
She didn't want to tell Nanaya about the curse mark.
Of course, she didn't know that her Heaven's Curse Seal was gone.
Nanaya is not in a hurry to tell her; let everything be as it is.
Konoha Village at night is still very lively.
Pedestrians come and go in an endless stream.
In the dessert shop, Anko greeted warmly.
"Boss, bring some three-color dango."
At the same time, she patted Nanaya's shoulder.
"Nanaya, the desserts here are delicious. Eat up. Sensei will treat you."
Without further ado, the three-color dango just came to the table.
Anko ate several skewers, the previous battle having consumed a lot of energy, and she was really hungry.
Uchiha Nanaya also ate several skewers.
The desserts are really sweet and melt in your mouth.
While they were eating deliciously, a few familiar figures walked in.
Kakashi, Might Guy, Asuma, Moonlight Hayate, and Genma Shiranui with a senbon in his mouth all entered this dessert shop.
Nanaya yawned several times while eating the dango.
"Nanaya, go back to sleep after eating. You can rest recently. I will call you if there's a mission."
"Um!"
These days, Nanaya has developed a good habit of sleeping eight hours a day.
Although he wakes up every day feeling that his strength has increased, that increase is gradually weakening.
As if he had reached a bottleneck, no matter how much he sleeps, it doesn't make much sense.
The system's prompt indicates that he needs to fall asleep in a real sense to become stronger, not just close his eyes and pretend.
There are no special rewards either.
Has his power reached its ceiling?
When Nanaya was about to ask, Kakashi interrupted his thoughts.
"Yo, isn't this Anko? Long time no see!"
Asuma, Moonlight Hayate, and the others also looked this way.
"Anko, I heard you have become a mentor Jōnin, and you have a disciple. Congratulations."
"How does it feel to be a teacher of three students for the first time? Is it particularly difficult to cope with?"
People like Kakashi and Asuma have not brought Genin yet.
Anko was the first among them, and they were curious about it.
Kakashi also tested many students, but they were all eliminated.
Naruto and Sasuke were the first class he taught.
While everyone was curious, Anko smiled slyly.
"Haha, you haven't brought Genin, and I don't have three disciples."
Not three?
Now basically, three people work as a team to carry out the task.
At the same time, Moonlight Hayate saw Nanaya's figure.
This made him quite curious.
"Uchiha Nanaya, how could he be with Anko?"
Immediately, as if thinking of something, he smiled secretly.
If Nanaya is with Anko, then no one will steal Yugao from him.
In Moonlight Hayate's eyes, Anko is a ninja who makes a lot of noise, and it's perfect to be with Nanaya.
Uzuki Yugao's quiet type is what he likes.
However, what Moonlight Hayate didn't know was that he was overthinking all of this.
Yugao has not had a good impression of him since the ninja academy; they were just in a normal period.
"Kakashi, let me explain the doubts in your hearts. Why are there not three disciples? But how about the money for this meal?"
"Okay, Anko, I've paid for the dango."
With a cigarette in his mouth, Sarutobi Asuma patted his chest and said confidently.
He is the son of the Third Hokage, and the Sarutobi family is also a big family, not lacking in money.
Anko was waiting for Asuma's words.
"Okay, let me introduce everyone. There is only one disciple of mine, and that is the one next to you, the Special Genin, Uchiha Nanaya!"
"What, Uchiha Nanaya?"
Hearing the name, both Kakashi and Asuma were stunned.
Eight-year-old Naruto is still at the ninja academy, and now Kakashi is only about 22 years old.
Anko is only nineteen now.
And the name Uchiha Nanaya has been known to everyone among the Konoha Shinobi; everyone knows it.
He barely graduated from the ninja academy at the age of seventeen and was awarded an unprecedented Special Genin title by the Hokage.
It was the first time they met teachers and students of the same age, and it was possible that they were teammates at the same time.
Unexpectedly, the Third Hokage took care of Uchiha Nanaya so much and specially asked Anko to be his guiding Jōnin.
After all this painstaking effort, Kakashi and the others were touched.
