Due to the small number of people, even the apprentice ninjas in the Intelligence Division enjoy decent benefits.
After all, this special talent is quite in demand in Konoha, just like Medical Ninjas.
"Here's the information on your new team member. If they're not suitable, you can replace them with someone else."
Hiruzen handed a document to Ruri, which recorded the information of the new member of her team.
Ruri took it calmly and glanced over it quickly. It was a boy with a kappa hairstyle and thick eyebrows, with gleaming white teeth.
Seems like a guy with a lot of stamina.
"What do you think?"
"He'll do."
Ruri nodded. She didn't have specific requirements for leading any kind of genin, and she wasn't aiming to improve any records.
It was just because the Uchiha Security Team's work was too boring that she went out on missions to find some fun for herself.
Holding the information on the new member, Ruri didn't stay there long and headed to the designated meeting place for her team.
"Ruri-sensei."
When she arrived at the meeting place, two children about ten years old were waiting there.
Seeing Ruri come, they happily shouted.
Since the other person went to the Intelligence Division, there were only two genin left in Ruri's team now.
"Genma, hasn't the newcomer arrived yet?"
"No, I haven't seen anyone yet."
The genin called Genma shook his head, holding a 'toothpick' in his mouth.
"He's probably on his way now. After all, there's still half an hour before the agreed time."
The boy wearing a black ninja suit and black sunglasses said.
After waiting for about ten minutes, suddenly a boy in a green tight-fitting suit with a kappa hairstyle came running over.
"Finally here, huh? Really made us wait. Hope we won't be tortured out of our minds later."
Genma laughed mischievously.
"I remember this guy is..."
The boy wearing black sunglasses pushed up his frame, seeming to recognize the newcomer.
The newcomer stood in front of Ruri and the others, panting and smiling, with his gleaming white teeth shining brightly.
"Hello, I am Might Guy. Starting today, I'll be joining this team. Please take care of me!"
"..."
Those teeth are so bright.
The green outfit is so bizarre.
That was the unanimous thought in Ruri and the other two's minds.
"I'm Uchiha Ruri, the jonin of this team, and also the captain. I specialize in Fire Style and Taijutsu, but I'm not good at Illusion Techniques."
Ruri nodded. From his physique and stance, he looked exactly as described in the intelligence, good at Taijutsu.
"Eh?"
The boy named Might Guy showed a surprised expression.
How could a ninja from the Uchiha Race not be good at Illusion Techniques?
How strange.
Genma walked over, patted Might Guy's shoulder, and laughed, "You'll find out soon, newbie. I'm Shiranui Genma, pleased to meet you."
"Pleased to meet you."
He once again showed his gleaming white teeth.
"I'm Ebisu, and my hobby is..."
The boy wearing black sunglasses began his introduction.
"Reading H novels."
Genma added.
"Yes, my hobby is reading H novels... uh... no! Why is it H novels?"
Ebisu's face turned bright red as he angrily shouted at Genma in frustration.
"Uh..."
Might Guy interrupted the two's conversation.
"What?"
"What are H novels? Are those books very powerful?"
With a serious face.
"..."
Genma and Ebisu scratched their heads, unsure how to explain.
Could it be that this guy's head... doesn't work well?
"You three, stop discussing meaningless topics. It's the rule that the newcomer has to spar with me first."
Ruri said from a short distance away.
"Yes, Ruri-sensei."
Genma and Ebisu gave a look of sympathy as they stepped aside to watch the battle.
"A duel? Against a jonin? Just what I wanted, my youth is burning brightly!"
Upon hearing that he could spar with Ruri, a jonin, Guy showed no fear but was eager to try, his heart thrilled.
Opportunities to spar with a jonin don't come often. He had to seize this chance to leave a good impression.
Ruri glanced at him and pulled a shuriken from her ninja tool bag, twirling it on her finger.
"Alright, let's start."
With that, Ruri flicked her hand, and the shuriken spinning on her finger shot at Guy like a black lightning bolt.
Guy's expression changed, the speed was incredible, he couldn't dodge it.
In a panic, he took out a kunai to block it, and his arm throbbed with pain, causing him to grimace, obviously due to the pain.
Is this the power of a jonin?
Just an ordinary shuriken has such force.
Guy felt like his whole body was on fire.
"Leaf Whirlwind!"
Without hesitation, after blocking the shuriken, Guy charged at Ruri with momentum.
Genma and Ebisu watched it all with calm expressions. The newcomer's speed and strength were quite good, but to them, the 'Ruri-sensei', who seemed like a demon, it was nothing more than child's play.
As expected, his combination kick technique was easily avoided by Ruri.
Guy wasn't discouraged; if a jonin were so easily hit, they wouldn't be a jonin.
Even though it was just a test, Guy planned to fight with all his strength.
"Open gate: Open!"
In Genma and Ebisu's surprised eyes, Guy's speed and strength increased another notch.
"What?"
Seeing his attack once again easily bypassed by Ruri, Guy furrowed his brow.
