Chapter 8 - Could he be a genius?

Kitazawa returned to his office.

After he sat down, he took out the class schedule for Class A of the first grade.

As a homeroom teacher, he taught fewer classes than Iruka Umino, but every single one of them was of utmost importance.

The three courses are: Will of Fire, Konoha History, and Practical Exercises.

The courses with the most practical exercises are the most numerous.

A ninja may lack education, but he cannot lack strength.

The practical exercises mainly teach the Three Body Techniques, the use of common ninja tools, the detection and setting of traps, and so on.

Time passed slowly, and soon it was time for the last class, which was the practical class.

Similar to the students in my previous life, I had eight classes a day, four in the morning and four in the afternoon, each class lasting forty-five minutes.

"This lesson is a practical lesson."

Kitazawa stood at the classroom door and said, "Everyone, come with me to the playground."

"Teacher Kitazawa, are you going to teach ninjutsu?"

Naruto's eyes lit up, and he asked eagerly.

Although most students didn't ask, their faces showed anticipation.

Only Sasuke Uchiha and Shikamaru Nara, who came from ninja clans, remained calm.

Because they all have family-inherited ninjutsu.

Before the commoner students had even mastered the Three Body Techniques, they had already mastered Fire Release, Gentle Fist, and special secret techniques.

These ninjutsu techniques are beyond the reach of ninja academy teachers, even if they wanted to.

Their purpose in enrolling in the university was simple: to build connections and increase their knowledge.

Naruto Uzumaki is an exception.

Although he was the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki and the son of the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, he had no one to teach him.

"You're not fully familiar with chakra refining yet, so we won't teach you ninjutsu yet. This lesson will teach you kunai throwing."

Kitazawa met their gazes and spoke.

"The ninja tools are not bad either."

Naruto was a little disappointed, but not much.

For ninjas, both ninjutsu and ninja tools are important and frequently used.

"It's boring."

Sasuke Uchiha shook his head.

When it comes to the use of ninja tools, few in the entire Hidden Leaf Village can compare to the Uchiha clan.

Because they possess the Sharingan, a bloodline limit.

The Sharingan possesses powerful functions such as insight, hypnosis, and copying.

He accumulated a great advantage in using ninja tools and even created many ninjutsu techniques.

For example, the technique of shurikenjutsu.

The group arrived at the playground.

"Before class begins, I have one more thing to announce."

Kitazawa clapped his hands and said, "That means electing a class monitor."

"I want to be the class monitor!"

Naruto Uzumaki immediately stood at attention and said.

"I want one too!"

Many people spoke up.

Even Sasuke Uchiha was somewhat tempted.

If I become the class monitor, I might finally receive the praise he's been waiting for.

"Do you know what the class monitor is supposed to do?"

Kitazawa asked with a smile.

"Manage the whole class!"

"I think it's similar to the Hokage; I'd call it the Mad Kage!"

"The class photo is mine!"

A variety of nonsensical answers followed.

"The class monitor's main job is to assist the teacher and help classmates, such as conveying the teacher's orders and collecting homework."

Kitazawa smirked and said.

He glanced instinctively at the little boy who had mentioned Ban Ying.

Is it possible that he is in trouble?

"A waste of time."

Uchiha Sasuke curled his lip.

If he, a member of the Uchiha clan, were to serve these ordinary students, his father would probably beat him into a spinning top, let alone praise him.

"Too much trouble."

Nara Shikamaru muttered to himself.

In an instant, most students lost interest.

"Those who still want to be class monitor, please raise your hands."

Kitazawa smiled and said, having achieved his goal.

Naruto Uzumaki was the first to raise his hand.

Besides him, there are three others.

"very good."

Kitazawa nodded and said, "From today onwards, the four of you will be vice class monitors."

"Vice class monitor? Then who is the class monitor?"

Naruto scratched his head, puzzled.

"I am the class monitor, and I will be observing you all throughout this semester."

Kitazawa said calmly, "Next semester, the best one among you will succeed me as class monitor."

[Current Task: Become the class monitor of Class A, Grade 1.]

[Quest Reward: Water Attribute.]

[The host has completed the mission; reward issued.]

Kitazawa looked at the line of text that appeared before him and couldn't help but feel a surge of joy.

This stupid system is so easy to fool.

Successfully acquired the Water attribute!

"Alright, let's begin the lesson."

Kitazawa took out a spirit storage scroll, placed it on the ground, and opened it.

He formed a hand seal, and with a bang, a large number of wooden stakes and kunai appeared from the smoke.

"Vice squad leader."

Kitazawa instructed, "Two people, plant the wooden stakes in the playground, and two people, distribute kunai to the students."

"yes!"

Naruto Uzumaki answered very enthusiastically.

In his view, becoming class monitor would allow him to better fulfill his dream, which is to gain everyone's recognition.

"Let's begin the practical training now."

After spending fifteen minutes explaining the kunai throwing technique, Kitazawa said, "Your goal is to hit the stationary stake."

With a loud thud.

Uchiha Sasuke raised his hand and used the legendary gun-fu technique. The kunai veered and hit the bullseye of the wooden stake precisely.

"Wow!"

Sakura Haruno led the way, and many girls gasped in surprise.

You're so sexy.

Kitazawa sensed the air of arrogance.

Sasuke Uchiha's mission is indeed difficult.

"I can too!"

Naruto Uzumaki, unable to tolerate Sasuke Uchiha's arrogant attitude, shouted, "I'm making my move!"

He held the kunai in his hand and threw it forcefully.

"Hooray, I won!"

Naruto Uzumaki glanced at it, and said with surprise and excitement.

"Naruto, that's my wooden stake."

Nara Shikamaru shook his head, offering a somewhat helpless reminder.

Naruto Uzumaki froze.

"Mistakes happen all the time, don't be discouraged, just practice more."

Kitazawa paused for a moment, then said with a smile, "Those who hit the bullseye, I'll give you a snack gift pack."

"snack?"

Choji Akimichi's eyes widened like saucers.

"Yay!"

The students immediately cheered.

Although children in the ninja world mature earlier, they are still children after all, and the temptation of snacks is very strong.

"childish."

Uchiha Sasuke gave a soft snort.

He's no longer a three-year-old; he's almost six!

Encouraged by the snacks, the class was very lively, and everyone was highly motivated.

"Thank you, Kitazawa-sensei!"

As soon as the bell rang, Choji Akimichi rushed forward and grabbed the first seat, proving with his skill what a nimble fat guy he is.

"Hinata, don't go yet, wait for me."

When it was Hinata Hyuga's turn, Kitazawa spoke up to remind her.

"Ah... um."

Hinata Hyuga felt everyone's gazes upon her and her face flushed.

She took the snacks, immediately lowered her head, clutched the hem of her clothes, and stood there restlessly.

"Naruto, this is for you."

After everyone left, Kitazawa tossed Naruto a snack.

"I can't accept it."

Naruto Uzumaki refused, saying, "I didn't hit the bullseye."

In the original work, his grades at the ninja academy were terrible; he was considered a bottom student.

How should I put it?

Naruto Uzumaki is a typical stat-based monster; he doesn't need any special skills, he's just incredibly strong and can send bricks flying.

Of course, there's another reason: the Nine-Tails' interference.

In reality, Naruto Uzumaki is a genius that is one in a million.

"It's just a matter of time."

Kitazawa smiled and said, "Teacher believes you can definitely do it."

"I..."

Naruto Uzumaki felt a warm sensation throughout his body.

He held the snacks, unsure of what to say.

"Go back and get some rest. See you tomorrow."

Kitazawa patted him on the shoulder and said.

"Um!"

Naruto Uzumaki turned and walked out of the school.

When he got home, he saw a familiar figure.

"Three generations of grandfathers!"

Naruto's face lit up with surprise.
