Chapter 47 - 47

Chapter 47 PUA from Konoha's high-level officials!

"Awe? Perhaps!"

"However, I have to say! Tetsuya-kun is truly an interesting person!"

"Tetsuya-kun, you don't need to guess anymore! Hokage-sama sent me to find you; he wants to see you!"

Fujiwara Tetsuya's current skill level was still a bit too naive in front of Orochimaru!

His excuses for concealment clearly didn't hold up!

"Hokage-sama wants to see me?"

In a flash of surprise, Fujiwara Tetsuya understood the reason!

It was nothing more than the decisive battle with the Third Raikage tomorrow!

It seems this one also felt the pressure!

"That's right! We've waited for so long anyway! There's no rush for this moment. Tetsuya-kun, do you want to go home and tell your clan members?"

"There's no need for that! Since Hokage-sama wants to see a small fry like me, it must be for an important matter, and I can't keep Hokage-sama waiting too long!"

Fujiwara Tetsuya was quite curious at this moment about what Hiruzen Sarutobi would say!

Or, what price he would offer to make him fight with all his might!

After all, a powerhouse of Hiruzen Sarutobi's caliber!

He knew very well!

How terrifying the Third Raikage's strength and talent truly were!

Hokage Building!

Since Fujiwara Tetsuya was promoted to Genin, he had been there quite a few times!

But every time he came, he felt a sense of oppression!

This was the pressure brought by power!

When Orochimaru led Fujiwara Tetsuya unimpeded into the Hokage Office!

Besides Hiruzen Sarutobi, Utatane Koharu and Homura Mitokado were also present.

Because of the Torifu Clan's matters!

Fujiwara Tetsuya naturally had no good feelings for Utatane Koharu!

After respectfully greeting Hiruzen Sarutobi, he stood rooted to the spot!

As if he hadn't seen Utatane Koharu and Homura Mitokado.

Children! They must have a child's temperament!

"Orochimaru, you've worked hard! I'll take care of the rest! You can go back and rest now!"

Exhaling smoke rings, Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded towards Orochimaru!

"Then I'll take my leave!"

Just like Fujiwara Tetsuya, from entering to leaving!

This Reikun! He had never shown respect for the Hokage Advisors!

However, seeing the expressions of Utatane Koharu and Homura Mitokado, it was clear they had long grown accustomed to all of this.

"Tetsuya!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's tone was as gentle as ever, instantly pulling Fujiwara Tetsuya back to reality from his thoughts!

"Yes, Hokage-sama!"

"Tetsuya, you performed well in today's battle! Especially your newly developed jutsu, Chidori! It truly opened my eyes!"

"I'm relieved that the Fujiwara Clan has such an outstanding junior in this generation!"

As he spoke, Hiruzen Sarutobi mentioned the Fujiwara Clan! He was intentionally or unintentionally trying to draw Fujiwara Tetsuya closer!

If it were truly an eight-year-old Shinobi Clan youth!

He would probably be too moved to speak!

But he wasn't!

"Thank you for the praise, Hokage-sama!"

"But my achievements today are all thanks to the elders in the clan, as well as Teacher Sandaido, Yuhi-sensei, and the help of Mikoto and Kinoto!"

"Being able to defeat Rasa is not the result of my efforts alone!"

Bonds?

At this moment!

Hiruzen Sarutobi's gaze towards Fujiwara Tetsuya grew even softer!

After all, bonds were what he valued most!

Is he a youth with the will of fire?

"Tetsuya! You don't need to be overly modest!"

"While you may have had their help to achieve your current strength, it is absolutely inseparable from your talent and hard work!"

"Seeing you! It's as if I see my younger self!"

"From obscurity to today! The hardships involved, I am far more aware of them than anyone else!"

His eyelids twitched slightly, and Hiruzen Sarutobi put down his pipe!

He began to pour 'chicken soup' into Fujiwara Tetsuya.

"Thank you for the reminder, Hokage-sama! I will work even harder and definitely become a qualified Ninja!"

After being forcibly given a dose of 'chicken soup'!

Fujiwara Tetsuya silently lowered his head!

Although Hiruzen Sarutobi was in his prime, he already had the potential of an old charlatan from twenty or thirty years later.

"By the way! How confident are you about tomorrow's final!"

"After all, your opponent is the Third Raikage's son! Even I would find Ninja Physical Technique troublesome!"

"Victory will only belong to Konoha!"

Fujiwara Tetsuya's answer did not have the fluctuations Hiruzen Sarutobi had imagined!

Firm! Decisive!

It seemed to have become a kind of belief!

Is it because of Uchiha Mikoto?

Recalling what happened in the arena today, Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately understood the reason.

"It's best that you have such confidence!"

"However, you are still young, and there is a long way to go in the future! Even if you fail, it's nothing!"

"Only by living can you go further!"

"By the way! I have a scroll here that records the battles between our Konoha Ninja and powerhouses of the Yotsuki Clan. You can take some time to study it carefully!"

"Perhaps it can provide you with some help!"

"There's actually something like this! Hokage-sama, thank you! I will definitely not let down your high hopes!"

While expressing his stance!

Deep down, Fujiwara Tetsuya also began to complain wildly!

This Hero of Shinobi, in order to win!

Ultimately, he had shed his pride!

Carefully taking the scroll handed to him by Hiruzen Sarutobi, Fujiwara Tetsuya immediately tucked it into his embrace.

This composed action!

However, it made Hiruzen Sarutobi think even more highly of him.

"Cough..."

Just after Fujiwara Tetsuya put away the scroll!

Utatane Koharu, beside him, suddenly coughed lightly!

Fujiwara Tetsuya's eyes moved slightly, and he immediately understood!

The main act after the main act! It was coming!

"Fujiwara Tetsuya, regarding the Chunin Exams! The Hokage didn't say too much to avoid putting too much pressure on you!"

"These things! The Hokage may not say them, but as a Hokage Advisor, I must make them clear!"

"The Chunin Exams are not just about the prestige of Konoha as the number one Ninja village! They also concern the increase or decrease in the volume of missions for Konoha for a considerable period in the future!"

"To show the importance of this matter, the Daimyo personally sent officials! In addition, many nobles and wealthy merchants from our Land of Fire will be attending!"

"Koharu!"

Just as Utatane Koharu was speaking about the crucial issue!

Hiruzen Sarutobi, at just the right moment, opened his mouth!

And Fujiwara Tetsuya listened to all of this with a solemn expression!

Trying to PUA me!

You've probably chosen the wrong target!

"Hiruzen! Shut up! Let me finish!"

"So! Tomorrow's match! Fujiwara Tetsuya, you are only allowed to win, not to lose!"

"Even if it means sacrificing your life!"

"Enough, Koharu! Tetsuya is still a child! These are things we should consider, not him!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi was furious!

He slammed his hand on the table and stood up!

His gaze towards Utatane Koharu seemed to carry a hint of anger!

As he turned his head, he cast a look full of apology towards Fujiwara Tetsuya.

Unbeknownst to them!

This wonderfully coordinated performance!

In Fujiwara Tetsuya's eyes!

It was like watching a monkey show!
