Escape From Konoha

In the office, Shiraishi got the student test report card of this year's graduation exam reported by Ninja School.

Under the transcript, there is a stack of documents with detailed information on each student.

On the report card, Shiraishi saw his son Ai's name in the first row and column.

After unanimous approval by the examiners, Cai defeated several examiners and received an S grade.

The graduation examination results of the Oni Country Ninja School are divided into five grades: S, A, B, C, and D.

A grade of D means failure and you need to return to school to retake the course.

A grade of C is Moderate and meets the minimum graduation standard.

B is above average, which is a relatively outstanding student.

A-level students are the so-called top students. On average, there are only two or three students who receive A-level grades every year.

Most of the other students can only get B or C grades.

As for the grade S, it belongs to the best evaluation beyond grade A.

It is rare for a student to receive such an evaluation in a few years.

Every time a student obtains an S-level evaluation, it is a key training target of the military.

Shiraishi was not surprised at all that his son Ai Neng performed well in this graduation exam and received an S rating.

The most important thing is that Cai is only twelve years old.

If it is this kind of performance after three years, it may only get an A evaluation, and it will not be able to achieve an S evaluation.

Performance evaluation is considered from a comprehensive level, and age is also an important part of it.

It must not be difficult to maintain this advantage over peers, become a chuunin in one year, and pass the jounin exam in three years.

Shiraishi knew that Aya had often received elite tutoring from Ayane when she was very young, and Ruri would occasionally step in to cultivate Aya's fighting ability.

Apart from his lack of experience in real life-and-death battles, Cai has no shortcomings in any aspect.

Whether it's ninjutsu, taijutsu, or the operation of ninja tools, Sai can master them as he pleases.

Although he is his youngest son, his ninja talents far exceed those of his eldest son Asuka.

Then, Shiraishi began to scan downwards, and after a dozen names, he saw Asuka's name.

The final evaluation of the assessment is B.

The upper-middle level is more excellent, and it has not reached the excellent ranks of A.

Shiraishi was not too surprised that Asuka achieved this result.

If you squeeze out the time for research and focus all on cultivation, it would not be difficult for Asuka to achieve an A rating.

Compared with Yiji and Cai, they are indeed inferior.

It's just that Asuka can still get a B rating on the basis of maintaining the research work, Shiraishi is somewhat relieved.

This time he was able to get a B rating in the Ninja School graduation exam, which proved that Asuka was not just perfunctory in his training, but was training himself seriously.

At first, he thought that it was not unacceptable for Asuka to get a C evaluation. After all, Asuka was not a pure ninja, and research was his job. Now he has become a ninja only because he has just reached the age of graduation. The same goes for the Chunin Exams that I will take later.

As for the future Jonin assessment, Shiraishi didn't want to control anything, and let Asuka make his own decisions.

However, considering the current situation, the Chunin exams in a few months will be the first problem that Asuka's students will face.

Soon, Shiraishi took out a piece of paper from the student's information file, and there was a photo on the upper right corner of a girl with long red hair.

Swirl aroma.

A member of the Uzumaki clan in the country of ghosts.

Possesses excellent chakra control ability, is good at sealing technique, and has both perception and medical ability.

The same age as Cai, twelve years old.

In this graduation test, he received the same B-level evaluation as Asuka.

However, I think that the other party is only twelve years old now, and belongs to the "special student" who graduated early. In terms of evaluation, it cannot be compared with Cai, but for this age group, the other party's performance is already quite outstanding.

It was also the third person Shiraishi wanted to squeeze into Asuka and Cai's team.

Although it is better to choose from the students who rated A, considering the balance of strength of the rest of the team, Uzumaki Xianglin, who is good at logistics assistance, can effectively make up for the shortcomings of Asuka and Cai's team in the field of perception and medical treatment, and is undoubtedly the third person in the team best candidate.

Next, Shiraishi carefully observed the information of the other students and nodded slightly.

Generally speaking, compared with the previous year, the quality of graduates this year has slightly improved.

Although the increase is very weak, as long as this upward trend is maintained, it is the best news for the ghost country.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Baishi put down the documents in his hand, looked at the position of the door panel and said, "Come in."

After the words fell, a middle-aged man about forty years old walked in from the outside.

On his forehead is a ninja forehead engraved with the aster flower logo, and on his black ninja uniform, there is a family fan logo embroidered on the Uchiha clan.

There is no doubt that this middle-aged man was from the Uchiha clan.

When he walked in, his steps were steady, his eyes sparkled, and he had an extraordinary momentum.

Uchiha Yan is the name of this middle-aged Uchiha ninja.

The other party was one of the Uchiha clansmen who followed Liuli and left Konoha in the early days.

He used to serve in the Konoha Security Force, and at that time, Yuyong was already Liuli's trusted subordinate.

After following him to the Kingdom of Ghosts, he also contributed a lot to the construction of the military.

Currently serving as the captain of the patrol force on the border of the Kingdom of Demons, he is a jounin. He is also one of the few elite ninjas among the Uchiha clan in the Kingdom of Demons who has opened the three Magatama Sharingan. Being able to use the three Magatama Sharingan to simulate the primary stage of Susanoo, his strength is quite impressive.

"Master Shiraishi, do you have any new arrangements for calling me here?"

Uchiha Yan stood still and asked aloud.

Shiraishi did not respond immediately, but took out the information files of Asuka, Sai and Uzumaki Kaoru and handed them to Uchiha Yan.

Uchiha Yan took it and saw that this was the information of graduates of the ninja school, and one of them was the son of their clan leader, so he roughly knew what this was about.

Let him serve as the guiding jounin for these three people.

Although the military in the Kingdom of Demons is different from the Ninja Village institutions, many of the Ninja Village's systems are still continued in the military.

For example, the ratings of genin, chunin, and jounin.

Freshly graduated students need to be led by high-level ninjas to accumulate mission experience so as to broaden their future career in the military.

"Jōnin, if you are responsible for these three people, there should be no problem, right?"

"No problem, no problem, but I thought it would be the clan leader who would be Master Asuka's mentor. I didn't expect that this kind of task would fall on me."

Uchiha Yan smiled and expressed his guess.

"Because they are so familiar, they don't know how to teach them. Moreover, what these three people lack is not the ability to be a ninja, but the experience of being a real ninja. This is something that cannot be taught to them in the school. They can understand through real combat. If there are no problems, then I leave it to you to let them get used to the life of a ninja as soon as possible. I think you have heard something about this year's Chunin Exam, and there will be some changes. "

No matter how the ninja changes, the essential things will not change too much.

From this point of view, the teaching model of the five traditional national ninja villages is not completely without merit.

What the Kingdom of Ghosts needs to do is to make certain improvements based on the traditional teaching model to better fit the military system of the Kingdom of Ghosts.

"Yes, feel free to leave this matter to me."

Uchiha Yan felt the heavy weight of this task and nodded extremely seriously.

Konoha.

In the woods in the early morning, crystal dewdrops gather on the grass blades, and the spring sunshine shines through the gaps in the forest leaves.

Standing in a deserted open space, silence surrounded the place.

After taking a breath of fresh air in the forest, Sasuke felt the chakra in his body is rapidly condensing towards his palms.

He calmed down slightly, without any seals. He was already very comfortable in the application of thunder attribute chakra, and had completed the basic stage of training. With only the instinctive consciousness remaining in his body, Sasuke saw that in the palm of his hand, slowly gathering A ball of dazzling electricity spread in the palm of his hand.

As this current appeared in his palm, Sasuke began to spread his consciousness, gathering and condensing the current, so that the current was concentrated and compressed in his palm.

However, when he tried to do this, the electric current gathered in his palm suddenly shook restlessly, and the electric light scattered, melted into the air, and disappeared without a trace.

The moment the current dissipated, Sasuke felt a stinging sensation in his palm, as if he had been stabbed hard by some kind of thorn-like object, and he frowned in pain.

Seeing this scene, Sasuke shook his stinging palm and let out a breath.

"As expected...isn't it still possible?"

Needless to say, his attempt still ended in failure.

Although Kakashi showed him the correct steps, the A-level ninjutsu of Thunder Release Chidori was extremely demanding in terms of changes in the nature of thunder chakra.

It is unbelievable that Kakashi created such a high-level ninjutsu on his own at a younger age than him.

Just learning and mastering this Thunder Release Ninjutsu is no longer an ordinary difficulty.

If you develop and create your own products, the difficulty will go up a few more levels.

The more he comes into contact with Kakashi, the more Sasuke understands his own weakness and the power and unfathomability of Uchiha Itachi.

Kakashi has stated more than once that Itachi is a powerful ninja who is not weaker than him.

When Itachi was ten years old, he passed the Chunin Exam alone without any teammates, and joined the ANBU in the same year. At the age of twelve, he was already an ANBU captain-level figure and became a legend of the ANBU in Konoha.

The captain of the ANBU, Sasuke knew very well what status a ninja at the level of captain had in the ANBU.

Before Kakashi became the ANBU minister, he was also one of the four squad captains of the ANBU, the same level as Itachi.

Ninjas of this level can only be described as the absolute elite among Jonin.

Not to mention, the other party also activated the Mangekyō Sharingan.

Even though Sasuke was not discouraged, he also felt a little unwilling and disappointed in his heart.

Compared with Kakashi and Itachi of the same age, his current achievements are not worth mentioning.

Even the Sharingan, which the Uchiha clan is proud of, has no signs of awakening until now.

Could it be that as a ninja of the Uchiha clan, I don't have the ability to activate the Sharingan?

Sasuke tried his best to suppress the irritability and depression in his heart.

In the past few years, he followed Kakashi to practice, and what he gained the most was not seeing all kinds of powerful ninjutsu, but the exercise of his state of mind, so as to achieve the state of "unity between man and nature" with nature.

Although he could not fully meet the requirement of 'harmony between man and nature' as mentioned by Kakashi, at least he would not lose control of his emotions when his mind was confused.

Sasuke can still do this.

The alarm clock placed under the tree suddenly beeped. Sasuke turned around and saw that the hour hand fell to the eight o'clock position.

"Is it already this time? Forget it, let's end the morning practice here. Let's go to today's graduation briefing first."

Three full days have passed since the graduation exam ended, and today happens to be the day of the graduation information conference.

At the graduation orientation meeting, the school will divide the students into groups and assign a mentor ninja to lead the novice genin to perform tasks and accumulate experience.

Sasuke had high expectations for the graduation information session that would start around nine o'clock.

Unknown teammates, unknown mentoring jounin, no matter which one he is, will affect his evaluation during his time as a genin.

However, Sasuke is not worried at all that the school will arrange poor teammates for him.

Based on his achievements in school, the school should match him with excellent teammates, and the assigned guiding ninjas will definitely be the elite among the ninjas in the village. Sasuke was pretty sure of that.

The better the teammates, the stronger the ability to guide the jounin, which means that he can improve his strength as soon as possible, leave the level of the genin as quickly as possible, and take a step towards the level of the chunin.

After becoming a chuunin, it is also a good choice to enter the ANBU training. Sasuke began to think about his future promotion path.

ANBU is the institution that best trains ninjas, and every ninja who joins it is an elite.

Kakashi belongs to this organization, and Itachi was also a member of the ANBU before his defection, which shows how strict and powerful this department is.

However, if you want to enter the Anbu, Kakashi's arrangements will probably be indispensable.

The other party is the ANBU minister, so there should be some ways for him to enter the ANBU training.

You can then ask how to enter the ANBU.

In a flash of his mind, Sasuke completely planned his promotion path within Konoha in the next two to three years.

Next, it depends on who the teammates and mentor jounin who will be in the same group with him are.

Hope you won't let yourself down.

◎

After entering the class, Sasuke came to his own seat and sat down, ignoring the still nympho eyes of the girls in the class, crossing his hands and holding his chin, maintaining a posture of contemplation, turning a blind eye to the girls' nympho eyes.

The cold temperament makes the girls' nymphomaniacs even more obvious.

They were not immune to Sasuke's cold demeanor.

The boys looked jealous and unwilling, but thinking of the gap between themselves and Sasuke, they could only snort and did not dare to go over and anger Sasuke.

Although they are all students who passed the graduation examination and officially became genin, it does not mean that there are no differences between them.

In practice classes, Sasuke would defeat his opponents with crispness every time, proving his strength as the chief student.

Regardless of being unhappy or seeking trouble maliciously, Sasuke's throne as number one in the school could not be shaken.

This is the margin of genius.

In short, for them, Sasuke is someone they must not mess with.

It's boring. Sasuke made this comment in his mind as he took in the performances of girls and boys out of the corner of his eye.

Whether it's the girls' infatuated behavior towards him or the boys' blatant jealousy, it's all something that can't be made clear.

There was nothing left to think about except to bore him.

I really hope these guys can stop.

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he saw an unexpected figure from behind at the door of the class.

—— Naruto Uzumaki.

The first crane tail of the grade one who is completely opposite to him.

What's going on? Didn't this crane tail fail the exam? Why did you come here wearing a forehead protector? When Sasuke saw Naruto with an excited smile on his face and a Konoha ninja forehead protector on his forehead, he couldn't help frowning and wondering.

Logically speaking, the other party was a failed product in the exam and could not attend the graduation briefing. Instead, he should consider repeating the grade.

However, not only did the other party come, but he was also wearing a formal Konoha Ninja forehead protector, which was somewhat surprising.

Could it be that the forehead was stolen?

Just when Sasuke was puzzled, someone passed by Naruto and expressed surprise at his arrival:

"Huh? Naruto, why are you here? Only graduates are eligible to come here?"

"It's Shikamaru, of course I'm here because I graduated, don't you see the thing on my forehead?"

Naruto ostentatiously supported the ninja forehead protector on his forehead, and it was so shiny and dazzling, as if he was afraid that people would not see the shining forehead protector.

Since Mizuki's defection was only known to a small number of jounin and chunin, it has not been widely spread in the village. Therefore, the fact that Naruto passed the graduation exam in the form of a "make-up exam" has not been spread.

"Yeah?"

As one of Naruto's bad friends, Shikamaru naturally hopes that Naruto will pass the graduation exam smoothly. Although I don't know how Naruto got this forehead protection, but I think it was allowed by Hokage.

Naruto wouldn't lie about something like this.

"Sakura, did you see that I have become a ninja too!"

Naruto passed Shikamaru and came to a girl with long cherry-colored hair and said happily.

"What does your becoming a ninja have to do with me? Don't come here to bother me."

Sakura rolled her eyes at Naruto, her watery eyes glancing at Sasuke not far away from time to time.

Damn it, that guy! Naruto noticed Sakura's strange movement and immediately glanced at Sasuke with a ferocious gaze. The accumulated anger in his eyes seemed to burn through Sasuke.

What's so good about this pretty boy?

No matter how you look at it, he is more handsome.

He even defeated the chuunin.

This kind of guy, if you use the technique to defeat Mizuki, you can get rid of him in two or three strokes.

Why should the girl I like look at this kind of man differently?

While Naruto was jealous of Sasuke, he couldn't help but feel depressed.

"Hey, Naruto, don't go over and provoke Sasuke, you are no match for him."

Shikamaru came over and said helplessly.

"What? Even Shikamaru, you said that."

"I'm just telling the truth. If you don't like to hear it, there's nothing I can do about it."

"I know, let him go today and let him look good in the future."

Naruto was indignant.

Shikamaru breathed a sigh of relief, finally not letting this fool mess around.

"Really, I didn't expect that even someone with a broad forehead like yours would like you. But speaking of it, you two are quite a match. Sakura, how about you accept Naruto's confession."

Ino, who was sitting in the back row, chuckled.

"Jing Yezhu, your mouth is still as open as ever."

Although being liked by others is a happy thing because she is affirmed by others, when she thinks that the person who likes her is Naruto, Sakura's heart becomes unsettled.

There was no way, in her eyes, Naruto had always been a problem student with a weak head.

Not only did he always make trouble in class and disturb her study, he would also perform some obscene ninjutsu that could not be seen directly in the transformation class, which caused many girls to have a bad impression of Naruto. Sakura is one of them.

"I'm serious, Sasuke wouldn't like someone like you anyway."

Ino said with a smile.

"Hmph, who knows until the end."

Sakura was also quite uneasy inside.

Whether he can be assigned to the same team as Sasuke depends on this time.

Ino also snorted.

I also felt the same anxiety as Sakura.

"Um, Sakura, can I sit next to you?"

Naruto asked expectantly.

"You are free to sit wherever you want, just don't bother me."

Sakura said helplessly.

Naruto immediately sat down next to Sakura.

About ten minutes passed like this, and finally at nine o'clock, the graduation orientation officially began.

Iruka, as the homeroom teacher, also arrived on time.

Due to the injuries sustained from the battle with Mizuki, he lay in the hospital for a day and has recovered.

"First of all, congratulations to you. From today on, you are independent ninjas and no longer students of the ninja school."

The excitement and expectations of the students were all visible to Iruka, and he was filled with emotion.

In the past, he, like the students here, had unlimited enthusiasm and expectations for the future.

Therefore, as a teacher, he can completely understand the excitement of the students.

"Without further ado, I think you have heard a little bit about the groupings that will be conducted today. Next, I will start assigning members to each group to let you know who the future teammates will be."

After saying that, Iruka coughed, took out a form, and started reading out the names prepared on it.

"First class, Inoue..."

Some of the students who were called were disappointed, some were happy, and their expressions were different.

Soon, Iruka glanced at Naruto's position and said: "Team 7, Uzumaki Naruto, Haruno Sakura, and Uchiha Sasuke, you will form a team of three."

Iruka was very satisfied with this arrangement.

Sakura is a medical ninja and Sasuke is the top student in the grade. Under the influence of such an environment, Naruto must have grown greatly.

"Tch, you actually want to team up with such a nasty guy."

Being in the same group as Sakura was a dream come true, but being in the same group as Sasuke made Naruto feel uncomfortable and he glared at Sasuke angrily.

Naruto was unhappy, and Sasuke was no better.

A nymphomaniac and a loser, this kind of team... is a combination that Sasuke never dared to think of before.

However, in this case, Sasuke can only hope that the next guide, Jonin, can bring him a turning point.
