Chapter 45 - Chapter 44 Training Purpose, Hokage Candidate Meeting!

The next morning, after Roy got up and prepared breakfast, he took a portion outside.

"Morishita-sama, it's time for breakfast."

After Roy finished speaking, he placed the food on the stone table and began his morning exercises.

Soon, Roy's morning exercise group grew larger.

"Roy, I'm definitely going to surpass you today!"

Might Guy looked confident, with every pore on his body exuding the aura of youth.

"You won't be absent from today's battle, will you?"

"Father said that if you're not here, the special training progress will be delayed."

"The efficiency of other Medical Ninja is too low."

"Moreover, I want to challenge you this time."

Kakashi also caught up with the two of them.

"Brother Luo Yi, what you taught me was very useful, can you teach me something else?"

Obito was as excited as if he had taken drugs early in the morning, and actually kept up with their speed.

As for Shizune, Yuhi, and Rin, the three of them went to prepare breakfast for them.

After completing three laps around the village, everyone's speed decreased a bit.

Only Might Guy still felt like he had endless energy.

Indeed, this guy was born to practice Taijutsu.

"Today, I'm giving you a gift."

"After all, you've helped me a lot during this time."

Roy said with a smile, stopping outside a Ninja tool shop.

"Huh?"

"Luo Yi, haven't you been the one helping us all this time?"

"Yeah, boss, did you say that backward?"

"Roy, what do you want to give us?"

The three of them reacted differently.

"Let's go, we'll talk inside."

After Roy finished speaking, he led the three of them into the Ninja tool shop.

One must know that the families of the three of them were quite well-off.

They could afford all sorts of Ninja tools they needed.

Most of the Ninja tools in the shop were ones they had seen before and could afford.

What did Roy mean?

"Hello, boss, I need to customize some special protective gear."

"Made from the heaviest metal, each piece must weigh at least 20kg."

"The size and shape are like this."

Roy took out a scroll and handed it to the shop owner.

The shop owner was a burly-looking middle-aged man, and all the Ninja tools inside were made by him.

"Is this protective gear for physical training, to be worn on the body?"

"Luo Yi, my son Nagasawa, you helped treat him, and he's been praising you constantly."

"Leave this to me, I also have good materials."

"I won't charge you."

The shop owner laughed heartily.

"No, the money that should be given must be given."

"Besides, being a Medical Ninja is my job, you don't need to thank me."

"Every Medical Ninja would do the same."

Roy replied with a smile, then took out a small leather pouch.

He took out a stack of money from it and handed it to the shop owner.

"Alright!"

"Come pick up the goods in three days, I..."

"I want four sets."

Roy pointed to the three people behind him and said with a grin.

"Alright."

"I understand."

"Come here in three days to pick them up."

The shop owner still nodded, giving an affirmative reply.

After Roy thanked him again, he turned and left the Ninja tool shop.

"Roy, why are you making these iron blocks?"

From the moment Obito entered until he left, he was completely bewildered.

Could this kind of thing even be used for training?

They couldn't possibly be expected to break iron blocks with their chests, could they?

"They're for weighted training."

"The body's limits are pushed out through pressure."

"We are still young, and our bodies have high growth potential."

"For a Ninja to become strong, physical fitness is the most fundamental aspect."

Roy simply stated his thoughts.

In the original work, let's not even talk about a monster like Might Guy.

Just look at Obito.

Initially, Obito's talent and strength were only considered average among Uchiha members.

But after he was seriously injured and had hashirama cells transplanted, his physique and Chakra reserves both saw a qualitative improvement.

Finally, he became the "Madara" who declared war on the entire Ninja World!

It's clear how important this improvement in physique is to a Ninja.

Of course, more importantly, Roy's physique had improved a bit too much during this time.

Without pressure-based training, he simply wouldn't be able to adapt to such an improvement.

"Is that so?"

"Boss, sometimes I even suspect that you help us improve just so you can beat us up better and then heal us."

Obito said with a silly grin.

Hearing Obito's words, the other two rolled their eyes at him.

Clearly, such a thought process was beyond their comprehension.

Roy also didn't say anything; this guy Obito had actually stumbled upon the truth.

After completing their morning exercises, the three girls brought breakfast.

After breakfast, Roy and Shizune went to the training ground, while the others went to school.

Although they also wanted to help Roy, they still had to study...

Meanwhile, within the Root Organization.

"Morishita, huh?"

"This guy..."

Danzo's expression turned ugly after learning that the Ninja he had dispatched were all captured and thrown into the dungeon.

Morishita was Hiruzen Sarutobi's man, and it seemed Hiruzen Sarutobi was truly going to intervene in this matter.

Should he just give up like this?

Danzo was somewhat unwilling, after all, such an all-rounder genius was not easy to find.

The most important thing was that Roy had no direct background.

As for Tsunade as a teacher, Danzo did not consider that a direct background.

"Danzo-sama, Hokage-sama has requested your presence in the meeting room."

Just then, a Ninja from the Root Organization came over with a scroll.

"I understand."

Danzo suppressed the displeasure in his heart.

Once his plan was complete, he would slowly strategize then.

Roy was still young, there was still time to change things.

Inside the Konoha meeting room.

Hiruzen Sarutobi sat at the head, and Utatane Koharu, Homura Mitokado, and Danzo were also present.

The others were clan heads or elders of various families.

Orochimaru and Tsunade were also unexpectedly present.

"The main purpose of this meeting is to discuss the candidate for the next Hokage."

"I am gradually getting older and am no longer suitable to remain in this position."

"Does anyone have any thoughts?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi directly brought up the central issue of the meeting.

For a moment, many clan heads were puzzled.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's strength was currently at its peak, and he could at least remain in office for several more years.

Why was he suddenly choosing the next Hokage?

"Hokage-sama, I think Orochimaru is a good choice."

"He is your disciple, and his strength and performance in this war have all been excellent."

Homura Mitokado stood up and responded immediately.

The designated person was Sarutobi Shinnosuke, but now that he was dead, it naturally fell to the second in line, Orochimaru.
