Naruto: The Template System

Chapter 117: Doubtful Shisui

Konoha.

Death Forest.

"That monster is finally gone."

About five minutes later, after Kozuki left, three colorful heads rose up Yellow, Black, and Pink from the bushes.

Naruto had some fear in his eyes as he looked towards the direction in which Kozuki left.

Since the start of the fight, they have been here, but the one-sided fight scared them too much.

Gaara was already a monster who could release such strong attacks, but a beast bigger than him appeared.

It took only one move to defeat the enemy; he didn't know whether his father could do so.

Naruto, unlike the original, was a lot stronger, but even so, his strength wasn't so strong that he could defeat a monster like Gaara.

And a monster even bigger than Gaara naturally made him slightly afraid.

"He had spotted us, but he let us go."

When Sasuke saw Kozuki looking towards them after the fight, he even forgot to breathe for a second.

He knew if they fought, their end wouldn't be much different than Gaara and the others.

Even his big brother he admires, never gave him such a strong feeling of oppression.

"Are they dead?"

Sakura extinguished the fear in her heart and pointed towards the bodies of Gaara and co.

Naruto and the others came near them, and after checking, they found that they had only passed out.

Naruto also found 2 scrolls of earth, which was what they needed.

After taking the scroll, Naruto and others quickly left the area, fearing that the monster might suddenly return.

And just after Naruto left, an Anbu wearing a falcon mask appeared near the passed-out bodies of Gaara and others.

"Who is he?"

Said Shisui guessing the identity of Aizen.

Minato appointed him to protect Naruto during the second exam since Minato didn't want an accident.

He was allowed to interfere only when Naruto was really in a deathly situation; otherwise, he wasn't allowed to shoot.

After all, protecting Naruto was essential since he was the Hokage's son, and if someone caught him, they might threaten Konoha.

Recalling the strength of that harmless-looking kid, Shisui didn't know what to say.

Even he had to use some strength to defeat Gaara, but he took Gaara down with a single strike.

"I need to report this to Lord Fourth."

Shisui, after thinking for a while, decided to report this incident to Minato as something about Aizen was off.

______________

"Some kids were watching us; why didn't you kill them."

Jumping from tree to tree, Kozuki and the Zetsu were going towards the tower.

Zetsu behind told Kozuki since he could easily sense, Kozuki should also be.

"One of them is the son of the Fourth Hokage, and the other is the son of the Patriarch of Uchiha Clan; killing them could cause trouble."

"And there was someone else also; it seems you weren't able to sense him."

Kozuki naturally sensed the Anbu hiding, and the familiar Aura made him naturally recognize his identity.

Seeing his student living well, Kozuki was naturally happy as with his involvement, so much had changed.

Shisui, who should have died six years ago, was living happily now; it was inseparable from his effort of killing Danzo.

And as he had expected, the Uchiha Clan didn't plan to revolt anymore as Minato really treated them well, and they could already see the hope of a Hokage from their Clan.

Soon, Kozuki and others arrived at the tower with their top speed.

After opening the scroll, a teacher popped out who congratulated them since they were the first ones to reach the tower and escorted them to the spacious hall.

Arriving at the stands, Kozuki sat down and closed his eyes, waiting for the end of the exam.

It was only the third day, so they needed to wait for two days to complete the exam.

______________

Hokage Office.

"You mean he took down the Sand Jinchuriki with a single strike."

Minato looked at Shisui, who reported him off the situation earlier, making him hard to believe it.

A 12-year-old Kid can defeat a Jinchuriki with a single strike, even he had to work a little to do so.

"Something about him is off; he seemed too calm like everything is under his control; a child can't have such calmness."

Recalling the gentle-looking Aizen who had the same smile from start to end, like everything was under his control, Shisui felt a chill in his heart.

And he also had a feeling that he was spotted by him.

"It seems Hanzo already has an heir."

To Minato, Aizen may be an heir that Hanzo has cultivated with extreme care.

After advising Shisui to keep an eye on Aizen and his team, Minato dismissed him and once again began to process the documents in front.
