Attending the Ninja Academy was not something one could do simply out of desire. Either you receive an admission notice or you must possess exceptional talent.
And Colt had both.
The Third Hokage [Sarutobi Hiruzen] had mentioned enrolling him the following year long ago.
At this time, Hinata was still a little worried that the two of them would not be assigned to the same class.
Colt, however, did not panic at all.
With his status in the Third Hokage's heart, he was in no way inferior to the descendants of the Ino-Shika-Chō clan.
No matter what, he would definitely be assigned to the class of the Rookie Nine.
After getting his reassurance, Hinata also felt relieved.
Before they knew it, they arrived at the door of the Hyuga residence.
After seeing Hinata inside, Colt turned around and left, but his eyes fluctuated a little.
He felt a prying gaze.
Observation from his future father-in-law?
And deep within the Hyuga clan, Hyuga Hiashi rolled his eyes and whispered.
"What a horrific Chakra, is this really a five-year-old child?"
"But that's not enough..."
...
On his way home, Colt frowned in thought.
Perhaps because he was a child, Hyuga Hiashi's prying was not well concealed. Colt felt it very easily.
It's just that he couldn't figure out the mindset of this future father-in-law.
But what was certain was that the road with Hinata in the future would definitely not be so smooth.
After all, his father was not the Hokage, his teacher was not the Hokage, and his master was not the Hokage's master.
The Hyuga family was the most decadent clan in all of Konoha.
Cruel clan, branch house system, stubborn elders.
If he wanted Hinata to marry out and not be marked with the Caged Bird Seal, he must convince them with absolute strength.
However, Colt didn't have much fear in his heart.
If it really pissed him off, it would be a simple matter to remove the Caged Bird Seal from the entire branch house.
He believed that systematic therapy could certainly achieve this.
...
Autumn and winter came and went, and in the blink of an eye, a few more months had passed. During this time, Colt's life was orderly, and he practiced Chakra nature Transformation every day.
To his dissatisfaction, as the five nations recovered, there was less and less friction.
This had led to a gradual decrease in the number of patients at Konoha's Hospital.
With the strength of Konoha's Shinobi, the task of exterminating bandits and escorting goods could be said to be very safe.
Although peace was a good thing, Colt was uncomfortable.
Now he received very few injured people every day, and the attributes and points provided were simply appalling.
Although he knew it was a little bad, Colt was already looking forward to when Nagato would come to Konoha for a spin.
In that case, he might be able to step beyond the shadows...
Fortunately, however, Uchiha Itachi appeared quite regularly, and every time it contributed a good wave of [Chakra].
This made Colt's accomplishments in Fire Style ninjutsu second only to his main attack, Lightning Style.
And that's just a side benefit.
What really excited Colt were these two rewards:
[Tsukuyomi] [Amaterasu]
Itachi's two Mangekyō Sharingan techniques were all received out.
However, the current Colt cannot use them yet.
Only by reaching the Mangekyō Sharingan's level can he unleash these two skills.
But don't worry, even if you can't awaken the Mangekyō by yourself, as long as you have enough points, you can exchange them directly from the system store.
Even the Eternal Mangekyō.
Colt received the admission letter from the Ninja Academy and will report in three days.
This means that he was about to become a glorious elementary school student in the ninja
world.
Colt was also very much looking forward to this.
From the Konoha Rookie Nine, he only knows Hinata and Naruto now, and the rest of them
have not been in contact.
He had been looking forward to this day for a long time.
However, now Colt still has a problem to solve.
...
"Grandpa Third, what do you mean?"
Inside the Hokage's office, Colt stared at the Third Hokage, who was smoking a pipe.
The Anbu guard who was hiding in the dark heard him calling the Third Hokage so, his eyes instantly turned bad, and he wanted to rush out to teach Colt a lesson.
But he was stopped by the Third Hokage.
After such a long time, his relationship with Colt has not been what it used to be, and the
names have become more casual.
The Third Hokage didn't think there was anything wrong with this, thinking, that it was an expression of closeness.
"Colt, I know you are kind-hearted and don't want to see others get hurt."
"Now that the ninja world is peaceful, Konoha Hospital is not busy."
"For your academic consideration, you don't have to go there to help for the time being."
It turned out that just now, the Third Hokage called Colt over and told him not to go ton/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Konoha's Hospital anymore.
That's why there was such a violent reaction.
Not allowed to go to Konoha Hospital?
How can he accept that?
Didn't this cut off his attributes receiving path?
Colt's head immediately shook like a rattle.
"I can just let a Shadow Clone help me go to the hospital as before, without any delay."
Now the Third Hokage was a little confused and didn't understand why he was so obsessed
with treating the wounded.
In this regard, Colt also justified and gave reasons.
"I'm going to marry someone in the future. I want to save some dowry gifts now. Do you want me to stay along in the future or what?"
Konoha Hospital was not free to treat the injured; they will charge according to the severity of
the injury and the time it takes.
In the past two years, Colt's income from the hospital alone has kept up with the money for
four or five A-rank missions.
Not to mention a huge pension.
"Hahahaha"
After hearing what he said, the Third Hokage also burst into laughter.
He still knew about Colt and Hinata and was happy to see it happen in fact.
With the support of the Hyuga clan, the possibility of becoming a Hokage was also much
higher.
Colt was good at everything, had talent, and had the will of fire.
It was because of his poor background that he didn't have many supporters.
While thinking about it, the Third Hokage finally agreed to Colt's request.
"That's alright, just go to the hospital with a Shadow Clone as you always do." "However, I have one more condition." Speaking of this, the Third Hokage paused and called
out an Anbu.
"You go and destroy all the documents of Kamiyo Colt at Konoha's Hospital, and ask the
doctors there not to mention it."
Seeing that Colt was a little confused, the Third Hokage explained to him:
"This is also to protect you. Don't use the identity of Kamiyo Colt to go to Konoha's Hospital
during your time at the Academy."
"I'll fabricate a fictitious ninja identity for you and have you get paid under that."
Colt had no opinion on this.
As long as the attribute points can be received, the rest were all minor details.
