Naruto sat on a chair in Satoru's House, opened a book, looked at the pages of the catalogue, and swallowed hard.
His eyes developed a spiral pattern, as if indicating the impending birth of the Rinnegan.
Tenyu and Maki also propped their faces up, pretending to read seriously even if they didn't understand everything.
"Captain Naruto, may I ask what information you've obtained?" Tenyu asked respectfully, as if he were Naruto's subordinate.
Maki also chimed in, "With Captain Naruto's intelligence, it will surely be a piece of cake.
With this book from Dad, Captain will be able to find the Great Demon King's teacher."
With their continuous flattery, Naruto's spiral eyes finally cleared up a bit.
He was too embarrassed to admit that he didn't understand it either.
He suddenly had an idea: "Hmph, even without Uncle Satoru's book, I can still find the Great Demon King's teacher. Let's not look at this anymore; I'll take you out to search."
With that, he closed the book and was about to lead the two out.
But what greeted him were their scrutinising and suspicious gazes.
"Captain Naruto, you don't understand it, do you?"
The two looked at Naruto with suspicious eyes.
How could they allow Naruto to give up on such a fun thing?
"Oh dear~ What should I do? I just don't understand it." Naruto wanted to be recognised, but if he didn't understand, he didn't understand.
He couldn't do anything about it.
He was just a child who had just started school.
"Brother Naruto is so silly; you're not suitable to be a captain," Maki said softly.
Naruto was furious upon hearing this: "Nonsense! I'm the man who will become Hokage; I'll find it."
"If you don't understand, does that mean others don't understand either?
We can ask for help. My Dad said,
Ninja is a team profession; one person cannot achieve great things alone.
Don't always think about doing everything by yourself. As a captain, you must assign suitable tasks to each teammate.
Now you are the captain; you need to find your teammates and then assign them tasks."
Tenyu also spoke in a childish voice.
This was what Dad said to Brother Kiba; he was still a bit confused, but he felt that copying what Dad said was correct.
Naruto fell into thought upon hearing this.
That's right, I'm going to be Hokage in the future, so why should I do all these things myself?
He thought of someone.
"Okay, let's go find someone who can help us."
Naruto had selectively forgotten the purpose of finding the Ninja Compulsory Treasure Book, cleverly bypassing it.
His goal now was still the same: to find the Great Demon King's teacher.
…
Whoosh whoosh~
Woo~
The strong wind howled as Satoru, led by Hagoromo Ki, entered Wind Breath Valley during its calm period.
The others followed with difficulty.
Satoru observed the Hogoromo Clan's situation during their journey.
He noticed that their Chakra fluctuations pulsed with the strong wind.
Walking in the strong wind was easier for them.
While the others relied on their adult bodies to endure it.
"This should also be some kind of special physique. Not only do they have a large amount of Chakra,
But they also have a special affinity for the natural transformation of wind.
This trial is probably to experience the wind attribute nature transformation of Wind Breath Valley and increase the power of Wind Release Ninjutsu."
Hagoromo, just by hearing the name, sounds like one of the Sage brothers, so they probably inherited some special physique.
Moreover, their Chakra reserves were already comparable to their three teammates.
It should be known that these three were members of Konoha families, raised with various secret medicines and techniques since childhood, naturally possessing much more Chakra than others.
"This is the place." Hagoromo Ki led them to a platform.
The platform was currently covered in dust.
After he operated on it for a while, a barrier rose, neutralising all the strong winds.
"Alright, you all can rest inside, while the children will comprehend the power of Wind Breath Valley below.
When they are exhausted, bring them back to rest, and after they recover their stamina, throw them back down.
Don't pity them; they have already made up their minds."
Hagoromo Ki said to Satoru and the others.
Satoru nodded.
This job seemed simple, but it was a bit difficult.
Firstly, although these children had special physiques that made them affinity with the power of wind, which could reduce pressure.
However, they were too young, and their mental energy accumulation was insufficient, so they could easily lose consciousness and be blown away by the strong winds when their Chakra was exhausted.
They would truly be blown away.
He had already observed that the wind in the valley was only slightly weaker than when he used Wind Release: Great Breakthrough, and the power was not as concentrated.
Without the Chakra attached to their feet, they would truly be blown away.
This was also why the Hogoromo Clan hired a sensory Ninja.
With ample stamina, they could quickly find people using their sensory abilities and pull them back.
However, Inuzuka Tsuyoshi and Aburame Shikyō's sensory abilities probably wouldn't be useful.
They still had to rely on his and Hyuga Chong's abilities.
He heard that in the past, there were many stories of the Hogoromo Clan being blown away and disappearing.
…
"What, you want me to be your teammate, listen to you, and do things for you?" Shikamaru was stunned.
He looked at Naruto with disbelief.
Veins popped out.
Although I'm usually easy to talk to, I'm not that easy to talk to, am I?
"Yes, I acknowledge you. When I become Hokage, I'll make you my chief military advisor." Naruto didn't know where he had heard the term, but he said it happily.
Sasuke was too arrogant, he didn't want him. Kiba wanted to compete with him for the Hokage position and wanted to be his big brother, so he wouldn't look for him.
Only Shikamaru, although Kiba suspected him of wanting to be Hokage, was much better than those two.
The main reason was that among the few people he could think of who didn't look at him with that kind of gaze, there were only three he considered smart.
Choji didn't dislike him either, but he wasn't smart enough.
Naruto thought Shikamaru had a chance to help him.
"Who wants to be a military advisor? It's so troublesome, okay?
I'm not doing it." Shikamaru pouted.
He didn't want to do such things; they were so boring.
His father was a military advisor, and Shikamaru knew how troublesome it was to be a military advisor, so he politely declined.
Moreover, being Naruto's subordinate would make people laugh at him.
"But… but besides you, I can't find anyone else."
Naruto poked his two index fingers together, muttering.
Tenyu and Maki kept nodding behind him, agreeing with Naruto's words.
Shikamaru was speechless: "You can find Shino; he's also very smart."
Finally, to get rid of the big trouble that was Naruto, he gave him an idea.
"Shino? Who's that?" Naruto's eyes became confused upon hearing this.
