During the morning reading session, the classroom was filled with noise.
Everyone already knew they would be heading out on a mission ahead of schedule.
They were all discussing which Jonin from the village would be their instructor, rather than worrying about the war they might soon face.
Perhaps, for them, war was a good place to make a name for themselves.
The one who would die certainly wouldn't be them.
Soon, Uncle Nishimura walked in with a serious expression.
"Quiet."
Uncle Nishimura stood at the podium, his hands supporting the table.
"So, these are the circumstances. I think you are all aware. The Hokage wants you to go out and experience a real battle," Uncle Nishimura's rough voice echoed from the podium.
His voice was filled with seriousness. He was very supportive of the Hokage's decision this time.
He was a survivor of the First Shinobi World War, and he knew how cruel the battlefield could be.
"Alright, next is the distribution of the list."
Uncle Nishimura picked up a list from the table, the list filled with densely packed names.
"Team One, Uchiha Tatsumi, Uchiha Mikoto, Senju Nawaki."
"Jonin Teacher — Orochimaru"
Tatsumi had already anticipated this allocation.
After all, Orochimaru had already greeted him last night. As for Nawaki, in the manga, Orochimaru was the one leading the team.
The only thing he wasn't sure about was the other candidate. He didn't expect it to be Mikoto in the end.
Was it out of full consideration for her relationship with Tatsumi?
The Third Hokage, despite his appearance, is truly meticulous. Fully considering the happiness of his juniors.
However, speaking of which, shouldn't he quickly kick out Nawaki as well?
And then replace him with Kushina.
Therefore, what Uchiha Tatsumi hated the most was connections like Nawaki!
However, this team is indeed a bit eye-catching.
All three are children of major clans. Two from the Uchiha clan, one from the Senju clan.
If the team leader's strength isn't sufficient, it really won't work.
Of course, this team's performance is still up to par.
Uchiha Tatsumi, a genius young man, ranked first in the grade.
Mikoto's grades are also good. However, she has a gentle personality and doesn't like to be in the limelight. Therefore, her revealed grades are only slightly above average.
As for Nawaki, without a doubt, he's a complete idiot. Although his practical combat performance is indeed good, his written test scores are at the bottom of the list.
"Tatsumi, great, we're in Team One," Mikoto said excitedly to Tatsumi.
Tatsumi smiled, then patted her head and said, "Then, in the future, please give me your guidance."
Uh! Originally, Nawaki was very excited when he heard that they were in the same team and came over to talk to Uchiha Tatsumi.
But he witnessed this scene the whole time.
Damn it, my heart hurts so much.
Nawaki controlled his right hand, which was about to reach for a kunai.
What day is it today? Do you have to show your affection so openly!
No! Quickly, I must think of something to interrupt them, otherwise the damage I receive later will be even greater.
"Um, Tatsumi, great, we're in Team One," Nawaki also imitated what Mikoto said.
Tatsumi scratched his nose and said, "Who are you? Do we know each other?"
...
Teacher Nishimura ignored the farce below and continued reading the list.
"Team Two, Uzumaki Kushina, Inuzuka Hana, Hyuga Sakura."
"Jonin Leader — Tsunade"
Tatsumi thought carefully, this should be Kushina's last mission.
He had visited Mito a few times, and Mito's condition was getting worse and worse.
After becoming a Jinchuriki, Kushina should no longer be able to go out on missions casually.
And choosing Tsunade as Kushina's Jonin teacher was also out of the desire for Tsunade to protect her well.
Kushina had a very disappointed expression. She drooped her head and lay on the table.
Tatsumi was about to comfort her.
Kushina suddenly showed a sweet smile and said to Nawaki, "Oni-chan, can you switch with me? I also want to be in Team One."
Nawaki quickly waved his hand and refused, "No, no. I don't want to be a Genin under my sister. All my pocket money has already been taken away by her, and I don't want my mission reward to be taken away by her for gambling."
....
"Team Three, Namikaze Minato, Yamamoto Den, Shūsen Ryūto."
"Instructor Jonin — Jiraiya."
After Teacher Nishimura finished speaking, Tatsumi looked at Minato with pity.
He didn't expect the members of his team to be two extras.
Minato also smiled helplessly.
He originally thought that he would be in the same team as Tatsumi and Nawaki, but he didn't expect to be on a team with two relatively unfamiliar people.
However, fortunately, the team leader is Teacher Jiraiya. This made him feel much better.
"Team Four, Nara Shikaku, Yamanaka Inoichi, Akimichi Chōza."
"Instructor Jonin — Katō Dan."
Hmm? Hearing this name, Uchiha Tatsumi's attention was instantly drawn.
The name Katō Dan still made Tatsumi very concerned.
After all, he and Tatsumi's most admired, most envied, and most respected teacher in his previous life differed by only one word. That figure, bearing the name of the Golden Right Hand, lurking in the darkness, had always been Tatsumi's motto in his previous life.
Katō Dan, as a Jonin of Konoha, was also Tsunade's lover when she was young.
As a dream-chasing teenager, he pursued the position of Hokage, but he couldn't resist the curse of this position, and he was seriously injured and died in the war.
Even Tsunade's medical skills couldn't save his life, which also led to Tsunade's fear of blood.
However, the current him should not have had any contact with Tsunade yet.
After all, that idiot Nawaki hasn't died under the exploding tag yet.
Time passed slowly like this.
All the names have been read, and everything that needs to be explained has been explained.
Teacher Nishimura stood alone on the podium and said in a sad voice, "Everyone... don't die."
Tatsumi suddenly felt a little touched.
Uncle Nishimura is actually quite good, except that he looks a bit old, is a bit violent, stingy and vengeful, has no money or house, but the other conditions are pretty good.
"Also, everyone, don't forget to review my lessons. During the summer vacation, I will take the time to make up for the missing lessons. No compensation required," Uncle Nishimura continued.
Excuse me! Even if you gave me money, I wouldn't go.
Tatsumi decided to withdraw his good evaluation of Teacher Nishimura.
No wonder no one can stand him.
I curse him to fail his fourth blind date too.
