I teach in Naruto, and the system says I am Tsunade's student

Chapter 174 Kitazawa Becomes the Team Leader (Third and Fourth Updates)

Hokage's office.

"Kitazawa, your three students have given me a wonderful surprise."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said with a broad smile.

Kitazawa understood immediately upon hearing this.

Old Deng must have turned into a peeping tom again, watching Yakushi Kabuto and the others' battle with his crystal ball.

Kitazawa glanced at the crystal ball on the table.

Once Tsunade becomes Hokage, he'll have to get his hands on this crystal ball.

After all, leaving it to Hiruzen Sarutobi would be too dangerous.

"I remember you said before that you were only acting as a temporary team leader?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi tapped his pipe and asked.

"Ah."

Kitazawa nodded in response.

"Your three students are among the best in their age group in terms of talent and ability, and they also cooperate very well."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said slowly, "I think your ninja squad can be kept."

Kitazawa was taken aback.

He was surprised, yet felt it made perfect sense.

After all, this ninja squad has great potential.

While separating them wouldn't have much of an impact, there's a chemical reaction when geniuses come together.

They are especially invincible in team battles, and the three of them complement each other perfectly.

Kabuto Yakushi used his clever and flexible mind to provide the ninja team with plans and strategies.

At the same time, he is also a medical ninja and a wind-style ninja, serving as both a healer and a fire support.

Uchiha Izumi possesses the Sharingan, which allows her to both fight and control.

Aburame Torune can be used for reconnaissance and combat.

Furthermore, the nano-sized venomous insects raise the ceiling of their ninja squad, giving them the ability to challenge opponents of higher levels.

This configuration is comprehensive and powerful.

In Hiruzen Sarutobi's view, once they grow up, they can take on many challenging tasks.

This is undoubtedly a good thing for Konoha Village.

"My idea is for you to be their team leader."

Hiruzen Sarutobi paused for a moment, then said, "If you don't want to, then change it to Kakashi."

Kabuto Yakushi, Torune Aburame, and Izumi Uchiha were all too young.

To unlock their talents, you need an excellent mentor.

Kitazawa is undoubtedly the first choice.

It wasn't just because he was quite skilled, but also because he discovered and assembled this ninja team.

Without him, Hiruzen Sarutobi would never have known that Root also had two hidden gems: Kabuto Yakushi and Torune Aburame.

The same applies to Uchiha Izumi.

Her previous ninja squad was good, but her performance was far inferior to what she has now.

The only explanation is that with two less burdensome teammates gone, she can finally unleash her full potential without restraint.

Kitazawa fell into deep thought upon hearing this.

His initial plan was simple: to help the pharmacist out and, incidentally, complete a system task.

Once Kabuto Yakushi becomes a Chunin, he can wash his hands of the matter.

After all, Chunin are already able to form their own teams to carry out missions.

However, Hiruzen Sarutobi's desire to preserve this ninja team caused him some hesitation.

Unlike typical Jonin who lead teams, he has a fixed job: attending classes at the Ninja Academy.

how to say?

I can definitely take them on, but I don't have that much time to accompany them on missions. I can only spend time with them on Saturdays and Sundays at most.

Just then, four lines of text appeared before Kitazawa's eyes.

[Your performance during the Chunin Exams impressed the Hokage, who has granted you permission to become a team leader.]

[Current Mission: Lead your ninja squad to complete 90 D-rank missions within one month and make a name for yourself.]

[Mission Reward: Lightning Release: Chidori]

【Whether to accept? 】

You really are an intelligent... intelligent system.

After seeing the first line of text, Kitazawa couldn't help but want to complain.

I ask you, what exactly did I do?
From beginning to end, it was Kabuto Yakushi, Torune Aburame, and Izumi Uchiha who were performing; he was just an audience member.

In the system's eyes, he became the MVP?

But after seeing the mission reward, Kitazawa could only say that he had been too loud earlier and apologized.

Lightning Release: Chidori is the most famous of the Lightning Release ninjutsu in the original work.

One reason is that it was created by Kakashi Hatake.

Secondly, it's because it's a lightning-style ninjutsu frequently used by one of the male protagonists, Uchiha Sasuke.

If Naruto Uzumaki used a single Rasengan until the very end, then Sasuke Uchiha used a single Chidori until the very end.

He also developed a series of lightning-style ninjutsu based on Chidori, such as Chidori Stream, Chidori Blade, and Six Paths Power: Chidori.

"Since the Hokage says so, I will agree."

Kitazawa snapped out of his daze and said.

He has a lot of chakra now, and it will definitely increase in the future.

If he's really too busy, he can send his shadow clones to class while he takes Kabuto and the others on missions.

Furthermore, once all three members of a ninja team reach the Jonin level, the team can be disbanded.

After all, it would be a waste to put four Jonin together.

Kitazawa felt that with Kabuto and the others' talent, they would probably become Jonin in a few years.

"Thank you for your hard work, Kitazawa."

Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled with satisfaction.

After finishing their business, Kitazawa wasted no time, said goodbye, and left.

He returned to the Anbu base, where Kabuto Yakushi, Torune Aburame, and Izumi Uchiha were still there.

After the Chunin Exams, they did not immediately become Chunin; they still had to go through a process.

When Kitazawa arrived, they had just finished registering.

"Teacher Kitazawa."

The three of them saw him and quickly went up to him.

"I just went to see the Hokage."

Kitazawa said with a smile, "The Hokage has praised you highly."

But the three of them did not react.

Kabuto Yakushi and Torune Aburame were from Root, and Izumi Uchiha was from the Uchiha clan. Unlike other children their age, they did not idolize the Hokage.

"Besides, there's one more thing."

Kitazawa continued, "Our ninja team will continue to exist, and I will serve as the team leader."

As soon as he finished speaking, the three of them finally reacted.

Kabuto paused for a moment, then smiled.

His initial goal was similar to Kitazawa's: to become a Chunin and never intended to form a permanent team.

But he was very satisfied with both Aburame Torune and Uchiha Izumi.

He felt very happy that it was preserved.

Uchiha Izumi was also very happy, but her happiness was different.

She felt that she had fulfilled Mikoto Uchiha's instructions and would be able to help the Uchiha clan, or rather, Itachi Uchiha, share the burden.

The method of taking roots from the aroma is relatively pure.

Kitazawa saved him and is incredibly strong, so he's naturally qualified to be his team leader.

If it were someone else, he would leave the team immediately and wait for Shino Aburame to graduate before teaming up with him again.

"You've been fighting all morning and you must be tired. Go back and rest, and come find me at the Ninja Academy tomorrow."

Kitazawa thought for a moment and then said.

"Yes, Kitazawa-sensei."

The three of them said in unison.

After they finished speaking, they each went home.

The Uchiha clan's stronghold.

"I wonder if Izumi and the others passed the Chunin Exams."

Mikoto Uchiha took a sip of water and said with some concern.

"With their strength, there's definitely no problem."

Itachi Uchiha said calmly.

"Ah."

Mikoto Uchiha nodded and said, "I hope their ninja team won't disband so soon."

Kitazawa and Tsunade have a close relationship.

Uchiha Izumi becoming Kitazawa's student naturally created another layer of connection between the Uchiha clan and Tsunade.

The problem is that this ninja squad was formed temporarily.

Itachi Uchiha glanced at Mikoto Uchiha.

He could understand what she was thinking.

In fact, that's what he hoped for too.

This is not only a good thing for Izumi Uchiha, but also a good thing for the Uchiha clan.

However, if it doesn't work out, it's not a big problem.

After all, there's still Uchiha Sasuke.

"I am back!"

The door opened, followed by Uchiha Izumi's voice.

"Quan, how is it?"

Itachi Uchiha asked the question.

"I'm a Chunin now!"

Uchiha Izumi said with a smile.

"Congratulations."

Itachi Uchiha said gently.

"And our ninja squad is now a fixed unit!"

Uchiha Izumi continued.

"Great!"

Upon hearing this, Mikoto Uchiha couldn't help but speak.

Itachi Uchiha felt that the pressure on him had lessened considerably.

The current Uchiha clan members include Uchiha Izumi and Uchiha Sasuke, who have established a connection with Tsunade through Kitazawa.

If Tsunade becomes the Fifth Hokage, the Uchiha clan's situation will be greatly improved.

Even with the suppression from Shimura Danzo and the Root organization, it's not a big deal.

Uchiha Itachi suddenly began to imagine the future.

This is truly an unprecedented situation for the Uchiha clan.

Friday.

After having breakfast, Kitazawa arrived at the Ninja Academy and saw Kabuto Yakushi, Torune Aburame, and Izumi Uchiha already waiting for him.

Others such as Uchiha Sasuke, Hyuga Neji, and Nara Shikamaru were also present.

"Sasuke."

Kitazawa created a shadow clone and said, "You will train with him."

He plans to schedule the battle between Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki for next Monday.

According to his plan, next Monday's practical test will be the last one. After all, the final exams or the student council selection practical test are just around the corner.

Of course, there is another reason.

That means Naruto Uzumaki's Rasengan training is nearing its end.

If we don't make arrangements soon, Sasuke Uchiha will lose his last chance.

"Yes, Kitazawa-sensei."

Sasuke Uchiha nodded with a cold expression.

If no outsiders were present, he would definitely have given a wry smile.

The real combat training was just too grueling.

But it's not without its benefits.

It's no exaggeration to say that Kitazawa has completely dismantled Naruto's strength in the past few days.

Uchiha Sasuke was certain that he would win the next real-world test.

Because he already fully understands Naruto Uzumaki.

"You guys come with me."

Kitazawa led them to the mission hall.

"Should we start the quest directly?"

Seeing this, Kabuto asked with some surprise.

He thought Kitazawa would give them special training first.

"Your strength is sufficient."

Kitazawa paused for a moment and explained, "But since we've just formed a team, we still need to work on our chemistry. Using missions to help us get used to each other is a good approach."

"really."

Kabuto adjusted his glasses and said, "I think we can take on B-rank and A-rank missions."

It wasn't that he was arrogant; it was because he believed that his ninja squad was strong enough to deal with Jonin.

"Twenty-seven D-level missions are coming."

Kitazawa looked at the staff behind the window and said.

His system task is to complete ninety D-level tasks per month.

This means they have to do at least three D-level tasks every day.

In that case, let's order an extra week's worth at once.

"what?"

Yakushi Kabuto's eyes widened, his tone one of astonishment.

Uchiha Izumi was also completely bewildered.

D-rank missions are the lowest-ranking missions that ninjas can accept.

These types of tasks do not involve combat or encounter enemies; they mostly involve chores such as finding cats and weeding.

In Uchiha Izumi's opinion, even if there were no B-rank or A-rank, there should at least be C-rank.

"Sorry, according to the rules, you can only accept one mission at a time."

The staff member paused for a moment, then said.

Kitazawa frowned slightly.

His plan was to have Kabuto Yakushi, Torune Aburame, and Izumi Uchiha each do a D-rank mission every day.

However, it would be too much of a waste of time for three people to do a D-level mission together.

"Please wait."

Kitazawa didn't make things difficult for the staff; he turned around and went upstairs to knock on Hiruzen Sarutobi's door.

This is what they mean by having the power but not using it is a waste.

"It's Kitazawa."

When Hiruzen Sarutobi saw him, he asked, "What do you want with me?"

"Is such that."

Kitazawa explained the problem he was facing.

Why is your team undertaking a D-level mission?

After listening, Hiruzen Sarutobi asked in confusion.

"Because Kabuto and Torune are from the Root, they have never been to school and do not know what the Will of Fire is."

Kitazawa said seriously, "I hope they can gain the villagers' approval through these D-rank missions and integrate into Konoha Village."

Hiruzen Sarutobi was taken aback.

This reason was truly unexpected.

But...wow!
"Your idea is very good."

"Sarutobi Hiruzen said with emotion."

The more he looks at Kitazawa, the more he feels that he suits his taste.

This is practically the best ambassador for the Will of Fire!
Not only did they teach the students the will to fight fire, but they also took great care of non-ninja academy students like Kabuto Yakushi and Torune Aburame.

"You can take on more tasks within your capabilities."

Hiruzen Sarutobi paused for a moment, then said, "I'll write you a warrant."

"Thank you, Hokage-sama."

Kitazawa secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

As expected, the Will of Fire was needed to defeat Hiruzen Sarutobi.

This is called defeating magic with magic.

"Hello, this is the Hokage's warrant."

Kitazawa returned to the mission hall and handed the Hokage's warrant to the staff.

"what?"

The staff were amazed.

You obtained the Naruto warrant in less than three minutes?
What is your relationship with the Hokage?
"Since the Hokage has agreed, then we can certainly take on more missions."

The staff member glanced at the Hokage's warrant and quickly said...

"Thank you."

Kitazawa nodded and said.

"The names and strengths of your ninja squad members."

The staff member picked up a pen and said, "I need to register you first before I can give you tasks."

"I see."

Kitazawa answered his question honestly.

"You're Kitazawa?"

The staff member asked with a surprised look.

"you know me?"

Kitazawa was somewhat surprised.

"You have saved many people at Konoha Hospital, and your reputation has spread."

The staff member handed him a stack of mission scrolls with a respectful expression.

"Thank you."

Kitazawa hadn't expected that he would already have a certain reputation in Konoha Village.

"Teacher Kitazawa."

After leaving the Hokage Building, Kabuto Yakushi couldn't help but ask, "Why did you take on so many D-rank missions?"

"In order to cultivate the Shadow Clone Technique."

Kitazawa thought for a moment, then made up an excuse and said...

"You mean you want us to use shadow clones to complete the mission?"

Kabuto was stunned for a moment, then his face showed a look of realization. He said, "As expected of Kitazawa-sensei, to be able to think of such a training method."

"..."

Kitazawa's lips twitched.

You're overthinking it, aren't you?
But Kabuto was right; that was indeed his idea.

"Taketo and Izumi, I will teach you the Shadow Clone Technique."

Kitazawa glanced at Kabuto Yakushi and said, "Kabuto, you've already learned the Shadow Clone Technique, so I'll teach you the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique."

Although the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique is a forbidden technique, he is now qualified to teach it.

The reason is that he is already a formally appointed teacher leading the team.

It is in accordance with the rules of Konoha Village what kind of ninjutsu the supervising teacher teaches the students.

However, Kabuto Yakushi was very measured.

Even forbidden techniques will not be abused.

"Yes, Kitazawa-sensei."

Yakushi Kabuto immediately responded.

"You three can divide these tasks equally."

Kitazawa handed them the mission scroll and said, "I have only one requirement: it must be completed within a week."

Kabuto's glasses gleamed as he nodded thoughtfully.

A week is a bit tight, but it's not too difficult for them.

"Give me the task first."

Kabuto explained, "I can plan the shortest route based on the mission details to save you time."

Kitazawa was relieved to hear that.

With Yakushi Kabuto around, he could completely be a hands-off manager.

"Come to the Ninja Academy whenever you have free time after you finish your missions each day."

Kitazawa patted Kabuto Yakushi on the shoulder and said, "You're the oldest, so you'll be in charge when I'm not around."

"Yes, Kitazawa-sensei."

Kabuto agreed without hesitation.

In his view, these were all minor matters.

When he was a spy, the missions he performed were all extremely dangerous, and the slightest mistake could lead to death.

Monday arrived in the blink of an eye.

As Kitazawa had predicted, his ninja squad had no problem learning ninjutsu while completing missions.

At least he won't have to worry about taking care of them for a month.

His main focus was on the practical aspects of student council selection.

But before that, there was the sparring match between Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto today.

"I have some news to announce."

Kitazawa stood on the playground and said, "The student council selection competition is scheduled for December 15th, which means there are only eight days left."

"Eight days?"

Kiba Inuzuka clenched his fist, feeling a sense of urgency.

He needs to master the Hellhound technique completely within eight days so that he can shine in the student council selection competition.

Moreover, as far as he knew, Kitazawa had invited his parents to attend.

"Eight days is enough! I'm sure I'll be number one by then!"

Naruto Uzumaki was thinking of his Rasengan.

"It's not that easy. You'll taste failure today."

Uchiha Sasuke spoke calmly, yet with an indescribable air of composure and certainty.

Sakura Haruno and the others exchanged surprised glances.

They felt that Uchiha Sasuke was unusually confident today, even a little arrogant.

This is a world of difference from his previous self.

"To allow everyone to better prepare for the student council selection process, the practical test will be temporarily canceled. Today is the last one."

Kitazawa said slowly, "I will provide targeted reinforcements based on your situation over the next eight days."
