Chapter Thirty-Three: Things like secrets can't be kept most of the time! (Newcomers, all kinds)
"Teacher, please listen to my explanation! I really only told Brother Gintoki, Kai and Toadli, and I specifically asked them to keep it a secret and never tell anyone!"
Obito was also the first to raise his hand to speak.
When he heard the name Toadiki, Minato already knew why Jiraiya, who was hiding in Mt. Myoboku, knew so clearly and quickly the news that Orochimaru was getting married!
"Hokage-sama, I, Metkai, can swear to God that I really only told this boy Genjian and asked him to keep it a secret!"
"Hokage-sama, I can swear to God that I just told Ebisu and insisted on letting him keep it a secret!"
"Hokage-sama, I, Ebisu, can swear to God that I really only told that kid Reito and forced him to keep it a secret!"
"Hokage-sama, I am not the same and I can swear to God that I only told this kid Asuma and strongly asked him to keep it secret!"
"Hokage-sama, I, Sarutobi Asuma, do things for myself, and this matter has nothing to do with Kurenai! I told her because I couldn't keep my mouth shut!"
"Lord Hokage..."
"Lord Hokage..."
…
…
After this whole circle, they all had the same sentence structure, and they only changed words occasionally. Minato was also holding his forehead and sighing helplessly.
Even after basically going around for a while, another of his disciples, Yuan Yelin, weakly raised his hand and said that he only told Hongdou and asked her to keep it secret...
Minato, who was just about to show off his strict master and Hokage style and give these young ninjas a good beating, suddenly noticed something.
There is one person who is not in a weird circle!
That’s Gintoki!
Look at Renyinshi. If you say it’s confidential, keep it secret! Then look at yourselves! Why are you so big-mouthed?
"Well, Hokage-sama..." Kakashi raised his hand at the right time, pointing to Gintoki, who was picking his nose with his little finger and wandering away, to check for leaks and fill in the gaps, "This idiot brother told Sadaharu."
"Um?"
Minato frowned, Ding Chun...oh!
It’s Gintoki’s psychic beast!
If it can’t speak, there’s no harm in telling it!
Look at Gintoki, even if he can't hold it back, he still finds a creature who won't spread the news to the outside world. It's a good thing that you don't have any control over what you say!
"Then...all the dogs in the village knew about it, including the ninja dogs of the Inuzuka family..."
After hearing what Kakashi added, Minato almost burst into tears, looking at Gintoki with twitching eyes and black lines on his head.
I thought you didn't belong to their strange circle, but it turns out you really don't belong to their circle! You just put it aside and drew a new circle!
——Dog pen!
If the Inuzuka family's dog knows about it, then the Inuzuka family will also know about it, and he himself is also aware of the carefree character of the Inuzuka family.
The consequence is that at least one-third of the people in the village will know!
"You guys!"
Facing this group of future backbones of Konoha, Minato really didn't know what to say. It seemed that punishment was not a matter of not punishing.
And let alone them, even the Sandaime, the person who made the plan, couldn't help but tell it!
No, you have to give them a small punishment to make them feel better!
"Um...is there something wrong?"
Ebisu, who is good at calculations, pushed up the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose that he had worn since he was a child and said: "Hokage-sama, according to my careful calculations, even if you include Gintoki Jounin, in these few days, at most
Only half of the people in the village will know, it is simply impossible for everyone to know!"
Upon hearing this, Minato also sent a resentful look to the Sandaime on the side.
Good guy!
I bet you just bought half of it?!
"In short! Any ninja who contributes to this matter must do two hundred hours of voluntary labor for Konoha and the villagers around Konoha in the next three months! Kakashi, you are responsible for supervising!
"
Minato also issued specific punishment measures very seriously, but just after he finished speaking, he heard the Sandaime muttering as if he was talking to himself.
"That shouldn't be the case. In just a few days, I can only cover a quarter at most..."
Hearing this, all the ninjas, including Kakashi, instantly became expressionless. Was even the Third Hokage involved in such a thing?!
Speaking of which, does the Sandaime also need to do voluntary labor?
"Hokage-sama, please rest assured, I will be responsible for supervising my father and making him complete his voluntary labor every minute!"
Looking at Asma who raised her hand to speak and killed her relatives for justice, everyone felt that this child was really filial!
Undoubtedly my biological child!
"Before that, the source of the rumors in less than a quarter of the villagers was unclear. I think this matter must be clarified!"
Ebisu raised his hand again and said.
"A quarter..."
Minato held his chin and thought about it, this was not a small amount, no one without some special skills would be able to reach so many people with the news in just a few days!
According to my own experience, women who like to chat with people in the streets and alleys are generally women, the kind of carefree women who like to chat with everyone they meet!
Just like Kushina... wait!
I remember! I seem to...
Mentioned it to Kushina!
Minato, whose expression suddenly became a little subtle, looked at the group of ninjas who were whispering about who made the remaining quarter, and was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to say.
There is no need to confirm this kind of thing anymore. My wife knows it in her heart and can imagine the scene at that time!
There is also the way Kushina meets an acquaintance on the street to chat and pulls the other person to a remote corner and calmly says to the other person, "I'm going to tell you a secret, but you must not tell it to anyone else"!
You can imagine it all!
"Then what...ahem!" Minato cleared his throat to quiet the group of ninjas, then turned his face slightly and whispered: "I will accompany everyone for voluntary labor and other things, Kakashi, you don't have anything to do with it.
Remember it."
"ha?"
Kakashi was stunned for a moment, and then he understood something through Minato's slightly unnatural face.
I bet there were so many people here but I was the only one who really kept it a secret and no one told it! Even the Hokage-sama who gave such an order made a mistake!
"Okay, let's break up. That's it for today. If you are in the Hokage's room today, please keep it a secret! You must not tell anyone!"
Minato gave the silence order seriously, but then he noticed something was wrong.
Will the gag order I issue this time be the same as last time?
Such worries came to Minato's mind.
…
"Mikoto, let me tell you a huge secret. You must not tell anyone else..."
On the streets of Konoha Village, Kushina met Uchiha Mikoto who had just finished her prenatal check-up, and mysteriously pulled her to an uninhabited corner.
"I heard that Orochimaru-sama, one of the three ninjas, is getting married!"
