"If that's the case, then I'll serve as the referee." Kaoru continued to say, and then he raised his hand, and then waved it down fiercely: "Begin!"
As Kaoru's voice fell, that Root organization ninja directly drew the katana behind his back and charged towards Kakashi.
And Kakashi, however, frowned his eyebrows, and directly faced the Root organization ninja's attack with his bare hands.
However, both sides seemed to be taking the fact that they were still in the village into consideration, and they were only using taijutsu to fight, and weren't using ninjutsu to fight, in order to avoid damaging the surrounding buildings.
The two sides quickly became entangled together in combat.
"As expected of a ninja who is known as the 'Copy Ninja', he's able to handle dealing with an enemy using taijutsu with his bare hands with ease....."
The Kaoru who was sitting at the side watched this good show with a relaxed expression, and the only pity was that he didn't have any cola and popcorn with him.
However, Kaoru didn't watch for too long, because the victory or defeat between Kakashi and that Root organization ninja was quickly decided.
All that could be seen was Kakashi dodging a strike from the Root organization ninja, and then directly snatching the katana from the Root organization ninja's hand with a backhanded move, and then following up with a shoulder throw that slammed him heavily onto the ground, and the entire process had been accomplished in one go.
"You've lost." Kakashi said in an indifferent tone.
"Damn it....." That Root organization ninja wailed while lying on the ground, and he hadn't expected that he would actually be dealt with so quickly.
"Amazing, amazing....." Seeing that the battle had ended so quickly, Kaoru stood up from the railing, and said while clapping his hands.
"Hmph, you were watching from the side and seemed to be having a lot of fun!"
Kakashi said to Kaoru in a cold voice, and he had only realized now that he and that Root organization ninja had been completely played by Kaoru, and they had fought just because Kaoru had told them to fight, while Kaoru had been watching leisurely from the side.
"You can't say it like that." Kaoru responded with a smile, "Some things can't be resolved by just relying on words, and you need to use your hands in order for the other party to be convinced."
Having said that, Kaoru pointed at the Root organization ninja who was still lying on the ground and wailing, and continued to say, "Look, hasn't he been beaten to the point where he's convinced?"
"Forget it, you're right no matter what I say." Kakashi shook his head, and answered, "Follow me now."
"Of course." Kaoru nodded his head, and said.
Then, under Kakashi's lead, Kaoru headed towards the Hokage Building.
That pitiful Root organization ninja was left on the ground, and only got up by himself after a period of time had passed, and then went back to report to Lord Danzō in a dispirited manner.
Soon, Kakashi and Kaoru arrived at the Hokage Building, and after arriving at the door on the second floor, Kakashi reported to the room in a respectful tone: "Lord Hokage, I've brought the person that you wanted."
"Come in!" A voice that was old but powerful rang out after a moment.
After receiving the Third Hokage's permission, Kakashi pushed the door open, and walked inside together with Kaoru.
The Third Hokage was sitting cross-legged on the chair, and his eyes were gleaming with a radiant light, and he naturally exuded an aura of a superior simply by sitting there.
His gaze had been tightly focused on Kaoru ever since Kaoru had entered the room, and it was as if he wanted to see through what Kaoru was thinking in his heart.
But Kaoru was still calm and self-possessed, and didn't feel even a trace of fear due to the Third Hokage's sharp gaze.
"Hmm, I've been waiting for you for a little while now."
The Third Hokage spoke with a face that was full of kindness and amiability, but the sound that he spat out had the support of powerful chakra, and caused these words to sound as deafening and deafening as thunder.
"Kakashi, you should step down first."
The Third Hokage waved his hand lightly, and then Kakashi respectfully left the room, and closed the door.
In this way, only Kaoru and the Third Hokage were left in this huge office.
The atmosphere began to become solemn and heavy, and the two of them were both silent, and had fallen into a silent standoff.
"Uchiha Kaoru, this isn't the first time that we've met, and you should know who I am, right?"
The Third Hokage spoke once again, and although his face was already covered with wrinkles, his eyes had the same kind of vitality as a young person.
"Of course of course, you're the highest leader of the Leaf Village, Lord Third Hokage, and who in the entire Leaf Village doesn't know you and doesn't know of you?"
Kaoru answered with a smile.
"Haha, what you've said isn't wrong at all." The Third Hokage cast a gaze of praise towards Kaoru, and said aloud once again, "You're still able to maintain such composure in the face of my pressure, and you truly live up to your name as a genius ah."
For a young person who was still just a Genin to be able to maintain his composure in front of him was already considerably rare and valuable.
Kaoru merely smiled indifferently in response to the Third Hokage's praise, and then he asked aloud: "Lord Hokage, I wonder what it is that you're looking for me for, exactly?"
Although Kaoru was already clear about the Third Hokage's purpose in his heart, perhaps a person could live even better by playing dumb, right?
"I've already heard about the conflict that occurred between you and Kakashi." The Third Hokage said aloud.
"Kakashi?" Kaoru raised his eyebrows.
"He's that ninja who wears a fox mask."
The Third Hokage explained, "I heard that you had a battle with him the last time he came to find you, and you even used genjutsu to control him?"
"That was purely a stroke of luck." Kaoru said.
"No, that was your strength!" The Third Hokage took a puff of his pipe, and retorted, "The preliminary round in the central tower in the Forest of Death also proved this point, and you possess a very strong talent for ninjutsu!"
The Third Hokage spoke with a forceful and resounding tone, and didn't conceal his admiration for Kaoru in the slightest.
"Thank you for your praise, Lord Hokage." Kaoru was still saying with a smiling face, "However, Lord Hokage has specifically called me to this place, and it's probably not just to praise me, right?"
"That's only natural!" The Third Hokage said, "I greatly admire your talent for ninjutsu, and therefore, I want to invite you to join the Anbu!"
"The Anbu?" Kaoru pursed his lips.
"That's right." The Third Hokage nodded his head, "This is an elite force that directly belongs to the Kage and is managed by him, and directly listens to my commands."
Kaoru didn't interrupt, and quietly listened to the Third Hokage continue to speak.
"Although I greatly hope that you'll join the Anbu, I also have to clearly explain the good and bad points within it." The Third Hokage continued to say, and then his gaze began to become serious.
"Hmm, I have been waiting for you for a little while now."
The Third Hokage spoke with a face that was full of kindness and amiability, but the sound that he spat out had the support of powerful chakra, and caused these words to sound as deafening and deafening as thunder.
