Chapter 105: Becoming a Jounin under the Hokage's Protection

Upon entering the store, Jiraiya immediately turned his attention to Kurenai, Rin and Shizune, and then frowned at Yeruashi.

He was never that popular in his youth and wasn't surrounded by girls, and in those days, girls usually gathered around Orochimaru.

This is very similar to the scenes in the past, besides, Yeruashi was Orochimaru's student, because of this, Jiraiya involuntarily frowned.

But luckily.

His student, Minato, was just as good, no worse than Yeruashi.

"How are your injuries?"

Jiraiya nodded in response to the girls' greeting and asked about Yeruashi's condition.

Although his condition was very different, in this battle, Yeruashi became a hero by killing Chiyo, so after finishing the accumulated matter, Jiraiya went to see him right away.

"I thank Jiraiya-sama for his concern, Tsunade-sensei said that everything will be fine."

"That's good..."

Jiraiya nodded, then noticed something was wrong and looked at Yeruashi, saying, "How did you just call Tsunade?"

Yeruashi smiled and said, "I asked Tsunade-sama to teach me medical ninjutsu and she agreed."

Jiraiya: "..."

Jiraiya's expression became unnatural, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

Two of the three Sannins became Yeruashi's teachers, although Jiraiya had no intention of suppressing it, but now even if such an idea came up, it would be impossible to implement it.

He is not afraid of Orochimaru, but with Tsunade it is different, she is much more aggressive and short-tempered, if she knew something like that, she would chase Jiraiya all over the Fire Country.

Son of the White Fang of Konoha.

Disciple of Orochimaru and Tsunade.

The hero who killed Chiyo.

Yeruashi wasn't even eleven years old, but he was already surrounded by such a bright halo, his position is far superior to that of any conventional Jounin, having advanced a little, he will be almost equal to the status of a Sannin.

"That's right..."

Jiraiya said thoughtfully and changed the subject, "In Konoha they decided to elevate your rank to Jounin, and the Third Hokage personally assigned you under his command."

Hearing these words, Rin and Shizune didn't react in any way, in their opinion, Yeruashi's promotion to Jounin was quite natural, but Kurenai couldn't help but be surprised.

Jounin under the protection of the Hokage!

This is different from a normal Jounin!

Kurenai's father is a Jounin, so he has some understanding of the structure at the top of Konoha, and he knows that Jounins' duties vary, usually being part of the Anbu departments, security, torture, etc., reporting directly to the commanders of their departments.

In comparison, Jounins under Hiruzen are not under anyone's command, they can only be mobilized personally by the Hokage!

It turns out...

Now, without a direct order from Hiruzen, not even Orochimaru, Jiraiya or Danzo have the right to command Yeruashi.

"It seems that Hokage-sama appreciated my merits, it's a great honor."

Yeruashi replied with a smile.

This promotion didn't surprise him at all, now even Hiruzen and Danzo can't ignore his power, and he is also Orochimaru's disciple, so placing him in one of the departments wasn't the best choice.

The position of Jounin under the protection of the Hokage is the most suitable option, although his status is now much higher than that of any ordinary Jounin holding a position in one of the departments, but in fact, it does not grant any real power.

At the same time, no one but the Hokage can mobilize him, so without Hiruzen's direct approval, no Konoha ninja will be able to command Yeruashi.

"I'll let you rest then."

Jiraiya nodded and walked out of the tent, a few ninja waiting for him just at the entrance looked at Yeruashi, but there was no envy or disagreement in their gazes.

Although Yeruashi has completed very few missions, but given the strength and efficiency shown in the past battle, he was qualified enough to take the position of Jounin under the Hokage's protection.

Such a status

It was well deserved.

After Jiraiya left, Kurenai and the others let out a sigh of relief.

Just like Tsunade, when they met Jiraiya, they felt a strong pressure, as these are the ninja who have the highest status in Konoha, only surpassed by the Hokage, Danzo and the elders of Konoha, moreover, Jiraiya is the commander of this frontline camp, this gap in status is too big.

"I didn't expect you to become a Jounin under the Hokage's protection, it's simply unbelievable."

Kurenai turned and looked admiringly at Yeruashi.

He had never doubted Yeruashi's ability to become a Jounin under the Hokage's protection, even during his time at the academy, he had no doubts about it, but it had all happened too fast, they had only graduated from the academy about a year ago.

"This is not surprising."

Yeruashi smiled and said, "In the future you will also become a Jounin."

Kurenai nodded resolutely, he couldn't let his father down and had to become a Jounin.

Besides...

Yeruashi was already a Jounin under the Hokage's protection.

If she didn't become a Jounin in the future, then her status gap would be too big, perhaps it would be difficult for her to even see Yeruashi.

Like Kurenai, Rin also felt the need to become a Jounin as quickly as possible, only Shizune was indifferent to this, she almost never goes to the village, all the time she travels with Tsunade, and she doesn't attach much importance to such things.

"By the way."

Just at this moment, Shizune remembered something, she leaned towards Yeruashi and whispered something in his ear.

Hearing Shizune's words, Yeruashi looked at Kurenai and Rin, thinking that a "terrifying calamity" was about to break out and said, "Help me, I should be able to move a little by now."

"Well..."

Under Kurenai and Rin's gaze, Shizune helped Yeruashi up.

Although his muscles still ached, he could already move with help.

Kurenai and Rin watched the scene in silence for a moment, and then one of them asked suspiciously, "Shizune, what did you just say, what are you going to do about Yeruashi?"

"You guys don't need to know."

Shizune replied calmly and led Yeruashi out of the store.

Rin and Kurenai looked at each other, why "didn't they need to know"? Rin immediately stood up and supported Yeruashi on the other side.

As they were leaving the tent, she suddenly realized what Shizune meant and turned her head unnaturally.

Seeing Shizune's nod, Rin immediately turned to Kurenai, who still didn't understand, "Ah, Kurenai! We'll be right back, um... Yeruashi must be hungry, so go see if lunch is ready at the camp."

Kurenai looked suspiciously at Shizune and Rin, instinctively she felt that the two had come to some kind of secret agreement, but she still felt that Rin was right, as she herself felt hungry at that moment, and Yeruashi really had to eat.

"Okay, I'll prepare lunch. but you must be very careful! it'll be a couple of days before Yeruashi's wounds heal."

"Don't worry, we're both medical ninja, we're good at taking care of patients."

Rin smiled sweetly.

Kurenai paused and watched as Rin and Shizune helped Yeruashi out some more before walking away to prepare lunch.

Rin lowered her head, not daring to look at Yeruashi, and constantly asserted in her heart that caring for incapacitated patients is the responsibility of medical ninja.

"Rin, you can come back too, I can handle it myself," Shizune uttered, trying to remain natural when talking to Rin.

Rin said a little hesitantly, "No... looking at Yeruashi's condition, it will be awkward to move alone with your support."

Hearing their conversation, Yeruashi couldn't help but say, "Actually... you could ask someone to help me..."

"Oh... that... no... that won't work.... we're qualified medical ninja, you'll be fine."

Rin blushed and protested in confusion.

"..."

Yeruashi sighed helplessly and shook his head.
