"Brother, how is the situation?"
"Not good. My hateful cousin threatened me, saying if I told anyone about his secret, he would tell Mihui next door about me wetting the bed when I was three!" Kotetsu Hagane gnashed his teeth, denouncing his cousin's evil deeds.
How could their problems involve the little Mihui next door and ruin his glorious image? It was truly despicable!
"I have a plan. Using the excuse of being young and playing, go to your cousin's house and mess up his room. Even though you're the one who messed it up, if he doesn't clean it up in time, your cousin will be the one in trouble. Do this a few times, and how dare he act so arrogant!"
Izumo Kamizuki thought for a moment and came up with another brilliant idea.
Kotetsu Hagane's eyes immediately lit up. He declared that with Izumo's strategizing, he would be as invincible as the First Hokage with Tobirama's counsel. If successful, he would definitely treat Izumo to snacks.
Muzuki walked into the classroom and heard the conversation between these two'Sleeping Dragons and Phoenix Chicks,' and couldn't help but smile.
"Class begins!" Muzuki walked to the podium and started the lesson directly.
"Chakra is the prerequisite for us to use Ninjutsu, produced by the combination of physical energy and spiritual energy."
Most of the students below listened very attentively, after all, this was the most important basic knowledge.
Muzuki explained, occasionally releasing Chakra himself for everyone to feel. During the lecture, he also tried to intersperse jokes and short stories to keep the class from being boring, supplementing with questions to deepen their memory.
Soon, four classes were about to end. Nearing dismissal, looking at Anko, who was smiling and asking questions non-stop, Muzuki gave her an appraisal.
"Name: Anko Mitarashi"
"Potential: A"
Muzuki thought for a moment and gave an appraisal to all the students in the classroom.
"Name: Kotetsu Hagane"
"Potential: B-"
"Name: Izumo Kamizuki"
"Potential: B-"
Muzuki was surprised to find that, besides Shisui, only four students in the entire classroom reached B or above. Besides Anko and those three, only one student he had no impression of was also B-. The others were all C, with some C+ and some C-, and even some D.
Looking at it this way, Shisui's talent was too strong; he had completely left everyone else in the dust.
Anko's potential was also a bit unexpected for Muzuki. He remembered that Anko wasn't particularly strong in the original work, but the appraised potential was several levels higher than the two 'gate guards.'
However, Muzuki currently had no intention of taking Anko as a disciple. He couldn't take on an unlimited number of disciples; there were only four disciple slots, one of which was taken by Shisui, leaving only three.
Although loli Anko was cute, Muzuki stated that he was also handsome, but what good was that? Would Danzo release him from Root because of it? Obviously not.
"Lecture completed, settling rewards."
"Rating: A"
"Reward: Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu"
"This Ninjutsu is good, but unfortunately, it's not very useful to me right now," Muzuki thought to himself.
As Naruto's signature Ninjutsu from beginning to end, Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu is naturally a very practical Ninjutsu. If you have enough Chakra, it's very useful for both combat and training.
The problem was that Muzuki was currently lacking Chakra, so there was nothing he could do.
After finishing dinner and walking into the office, several teachers were brainstorming for Ikeya Yu, who was about to go on a blind date.
A tall, thin male teacher reminded him:
"Make sure to tidy yourself up before the meeting, dress formally, don't let her think you're a sloppy person."
"You underestimate me, Sugito. Although I've never been in love, that's common sense, isn't it?" Ikeya Yu replied confidently.
"I think what you need to pay most attention to is not to boast like this when chatting," Ueda Aya said, shaking her head, as if she had already foreseen the outcome.
"Ueda, just you wait and see." Ikeya Yu, seeing Ueda Aya look down on him, immediately made a firm declaration.
"Mhm, mhm, I'll wait and see," Ueda Aya responded perfunctorily. Noticing Muzuki had entered, she immediately struck up a conversation with him.
"Habsheng Sensei, you're so amazing. I passed by your Class 1, Grade 1 today and glanced inside; the atmosphere felt really good. I can't believe this is your first time teaching."
Muzuki shook his head modestly and said, "Not at all, it's all thanks to your useful experience and the students being well-behaved."
Although she knew these were humble words, who doesn't like to be praised? Ueda Aya smiled and then shared some of her snacks with Muzuki.
Seeing this, Ikeya Yu instantly felt what it was like to be treated differently. He and Ueda Aya had been colleagues for two years and had rarely eaten her snacks.
After muttering a complaint about Ueda Aya internally, Ikeya Yu quickly greeted Muzuki. If this time he succeeded, he would remember Muzuki's kindness for substituting forever!
Muzuki responded cheerfully to everyone, and after chatting for a few minutes, he picked up the brush and ink he had prepared earlier to practice calligraphy.
Practicing calligraphy in his free time was one of the few good habits he had from his previous life, developed after taking calligraphy classes in college.
The lunch break at the Ninja Academy was relatively short, so there was no time to find a place to train.
When he felt it was almost time for class, Muzuki tidied up and then headed to the classroom to prepare for the lesson.
Ding-a-ling-ling~
As the bell rang, Muzuki also happened to walk into Class 2, Grade 4.
"Eh, isn't it Ikeya Sensei's Konoha history class this afternoon?" A student asked, seeing that it wasn't Ikeya Yu who walked in.
"Ikeya Sensei has something on this afternoon, so I'll be teaching this afternoon's class," Muzuki explained as he walked to the podium.
As soon as Muzuki finished speaking, a hurried figure rushed into the classroom.
"Huff huff, Sensei, I'm so sorry. I met a Grandma on the way and helped her, which is why I'm late," Obito explained, hands on his knees, panting heavily.
"Sit down and listen to the lesson," Muzuki said, nodding. He then scanned the students, appraising all of them.
"Name: Rin Nohara"
"Chakra: 300"
"Potential: B+"
-
"Name: Might Guy"
"Chakra: 600"
"Potential: S"
"Evaluation: Suitable for Taijutsu training, recommended for discipleship"
-
"Name: Uchiha Obito"
"Chakra: 650"
"Potential: S"
"Evaluation: Six Paths bloodline, Spacetime talent, recommended for discipleship"
Class 2, Grade 4 was similar to his Class 1, Grade 1. Besides these three familiar faces, only Uchiha Tekka had A-level potential; the others were basically C-level or D-level.
After reviewing their talents, Muzuki inquired about their class progress and then began teaching.
For students accustomed to teachers who just read from textbooks, Muzuki's teaching style was a pleasant surprise.
Obito even directly said, "Muzuki Sensei, you teach so well, much better than the other teachers. If you teach all the time, I'm sure I'll pass."
"I'll tell Ikeya Sensei, along with the fact that you were late," Muzuki said with a smile. He was different from the other teachers at the Ninja Academy; he had systematically learned how to be a teacher.
Obito's face instantly fell, and he quickly begged for mercy; Ikeya Yu was their homeroom teacher.
Obito's sudden change in behavior added a bit more cheer to the class.
During the long break, Muzuki activated his Perception Ninjutsu, and after confirming there were no issues, he called Might Guy and Obito out.
There's another chapter tonight, but the time is not yet set, so you can check tomorrow.
