Rokuro quieted down.
Hiruzen took a drag from his pipe, looked at Rokuro, and said, "Yesterday, Uchiha Itachi suggested to me that I make you roll out of Konoha Village to do missions, and that it's best if you don't return for a year. I also think this is quite good. What do you think of this idea?!"
Rokuro was wildly overjoyed inside.
This was exactly what he wanted, ah.
Uchiha Itachi, you are truly a great person.
After you die, I will definitely burn incense for you every year.
Excited.
But he couldn't let Hiruzen know.
Rokuro put on an angry expression and cursed, "The people of the Uchiha clan are truly no good! To actually not let me return to Konoha Village! I want to duel Uchiha Itachi!"
Hiruzen tapped Rokuro's head with his pipe. "Smelly brat, quiet down for me!"
Rokuro looked angrily at Hiruzen. "How could you think such an unreasonable request is quite good, old man?! Do you still have a conscience? I risk my life through thick and thin for Konoha, and I can't even go home? Is this something a human would do?!"
Hiruzen's face was calm. Looking at Rokuro, he said, "Don't you really like going out to do missions? Why are you unhappy now? Could it be you don't want to do missions anymore?!"
Rokuro's expression changed, and he snorted coldly. "Of course I have to do missions. But after finishing missions, I always need to rest a bit and come back to see my future wives, right? If they get tricked away by other men, what do you expect me to do?!"
Hiruzen was speechless. He took a drag from his pipe and complained, "Smelly brat, to actually be so perverted. I don't even know who you learned it from. At such a young age, can't you think about things a normal child should think about?!"
Rokuro sized Hiruzen up and said highly disdainfully, "Old man, don't think I don't know about you peeking at beautiful women bathing every day. You're an old shameless pervert who still peeks at beauties; what does it matter if I want to find a few girlfriends?!"
Hiruzen's expression stiffened. He glared at Rokuro. "Smelly brat, you're getting more and more annoying. Now I feel even more that it's suitable for you to get lost. Starting tomorrow, you will head out to do missions. Without receiving my orders, you are not allowed to return!"
Rokuro's expression darkened somewhat. He looked at Hiruzen in dissatisfaction. "Old man, are you even human? Not even letting me return to Konoha Village! Does this place even count as my home anymore?!"
Hiruzen ignored Rokuro. He took a drag from his pipe and said faintly, "You two, come out!"
Two ninjas.
Jumped into the Hokage's office from the window.
As soon as Rokuro saw the two of them, his eyes instantly lit up.
Beauties, ah!
One was quite familiar.
It was the Genjutsu ninja, the future teacher of the Konoha 12, Yuhi Kurenai.
The other one, he seemed to have seen somewhere before.
Right!
It was the girlfriend of Gekko Hayate, who died early on—Uzuki Yugao.
The two women entered the office, bowed to Hiruzen, and then looked at Rokuro.
Being stared at by two beauties.
Rokuro felt somewhat embarrassed. He coughed drily and said, "Hello, you two big sisters!"
The two women didn't speak.
Hiruzen gave Rokuro a knowing look and said, "These two will accompany you outside to do missions. With this, you not being able to go home shouldn't be a problem, right?!"
Rokuro's face instantly turned solemn, and he said in all seriousness, "Old man, what do you mean by this? For the future of Konoha Village, what does not being able to go home amount to? Even if you make me not return for ten years, I will still risk my life to contribute to Konoha!"
Smelly brat!
Perverted as expected!
With beauties around, he didn't even want his future wives anymore.
Hiruzen secretly complained for a bit, coughed, and said, "Then it's settled like this. For the missions you do in the future, you can pick the B-Rank and C-Rank ones yourself. For A-Rank and above, have them contact me. Only after I give them a reply can you go do missions A-Rank and above."
Rokuro was somewhat dissatisfied. Staring at Hiruzen, he said, "Even Uchiha Itachi is no longer my match. What does a mere A-Rank mission count for? Old man, are you looking down on me?!"
Hiruzen smoked his pipe and said, "I do believe in your strength, but unfortunately, I don't believe in your brain. A-Rank missions are all matters of great importance. If you mess around casually, kid, you might just bring war right to our Konoha!"
Rokuro was speechless and couldn't help but complain, "Am I that kind of person?!"
"You are!" Hiruzen said bluntly. "And what I'm saying is putting it lightly!"
