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

Chapter 201 A New Year Spent Together (First and Second Updates)

"Tsunade, who is he?"

Jiraiya snapped out of his daze, quickly stood up, and walked a few steps to Tsunade, asking somewhat anxiously.

His name is Kitazawa.

Tsunade paused for a moment before finally introducing him as "half of my students."

"You actually have students?"

Jiraiya looked surprised, but quickly asked in a puzzled tone, "Why half?"

"My affairs are none of your business."

Tsunade, too lazy to explain, narrowed her eyes, clenched her fist, and said.

"Pretend I didn't ask."

Jiraiya sensed the threat in her words and immediately backed down.

"Kitazawa, he is from..."

Tsunade was about to introduce Jiraiya, but he interrupted her halfway through.

"Wait! I can do this myself!"

Jiraiya chuckled and took a step back.

He braced himself on one leg, striking an odd pose.

"I am the invincible white-haired toad messenger, invincible regardless of east, west, south, or north, so beautiful that even crying children will shut up when they see me... Ah!"

Before Jiraiya could utter the words "handsome man," a fist the size of a sandbag appeared before him.

The next second, he flew several meters away like a white meteor, and then a scream rang out.

"His name is Jiraiya."

Tsunade shook her hand, her expression unchanged, and said, "You should stay away from him normally."

What do you mean by "stay away from me"?

Jiraiya, like an indestructible cockroach, reappeared in front of Tsunade.

"You know the reason yourself."

Tsunade glanced at him and said, "If I find out you're spying on the Konoha hot springs again, you'll be in big trouble."

"This is all a misunderstanding!"

Upon hearing this, Jiraiya broke out in a cold sweat and quickly explained, "I came back to the village this time to celebrate the New Year with the old man and you!"

"Go keep the old man company."

Tsunade waved her hand and said, "I don't need it."

"unnecessary?"

Jiraiya subconsciously looked at Kitazawa.

"I, Lady Tsunade, Shizune-senpai, and Mrs. Rina lived together."

Kitazawa said with a normal expression.

"And who is Lina?"

Jiraiya scratched his head and asked.

"Since you've been away from Konoha for a long time, you naturally don't know what's happening in Konoha."

Tsunade gave a soft snort, somewhat displeased.

Kitazawa blinked.

Actually, Tsunade and Jiraiya are quite similar.

If he hadn't suggested the role of a psychological medical ninja, she would have had to wait until Naruto Uzumaki came to find her after graduation before she could return to the village.

Of course, he dared not say these words aloud, lest he suffer the same fate as Jiraiya.

"Go ask the old man what you want to know."

Tsunade turned around and casually closed the door.

Jiraiya touched his nose, somewhat sullen.

He hesitated for two seconds, then, without disturbing Tsunade, greeted Kitazawa and went to the Hokage's office.

"Old man, looking at your crystal ball again? How about I borrow it for a couple of days?"

A sudden sound rang out from beside me.

Hiruzen Sarutobi instinctively covered the crystal ball in front of him, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he recognized the voice.

"The Hokage's office is still the same as always."

Jiraiya jumped out of the window and walked up to Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"Can't you just go through the door?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi said with a stern face, "Just like Tsunade, she's always so disrespectful!"

"Next time definitely!"

Jiraiya looked completely indifferent.

"Forget it, you won't listen anyway."

Hiruzen Sarutobi put away the crystal ball and asked, "Have you found your child of prophecy?"

"No."

Jiraiya shook his head and said.

Mount Myōboku, one of the three sacred sites for summoning beasts, is led by the Great Toad Sage, who possesses the ability to foresee the future.

According to its prophecy, among Jiraiya's students, there is one who possesses the ability to change the entire ninja world.

However, without proper guidance, this student could potentially destroy the ninja world.

This student is naturally the prophesied child.

Jiraiya, in order to guide him, had been searching for him throughout the ninja world.

"You've searched for so many years and still haven't found it. Perhaps the Child of Prophecy doesn't even exist."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said slowly, "Now that we're back in Konoha, let's not leave again."

“Sorry, old man, I must find the Child of Prophecy.”

Jiraiya paused for two seconds, then said with unwavering conviction, "The Child of Prophecy exists!"

"..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi was speechless.

Regardless of strength or status, Jiraiya was not much inferior to Tsunade.

If he had stayed in Konoha, many things might have turned out very differently.

For example, the Nine-Tailed Fox's rampage.

"I just went to see Tsunade."

Jiraiya changed the subject and asked, "Who is this Kitazawa? How did he become Tsunade's student?"

"look by youself."

Hiruzen Sarutobi pulled out Kitazawa's file and handed it to him.

Jiraiya took the documents and began to read them.

At first, he was calm, but the more time passed, the more astonished he became.

There was no way around it; Kitazawa's transformation was truly astonishing.

In less than a year, he went from an ordinary ninja academy teacher to an elite Jonin who was proficient in medical ninjutsu, genjutsu, and water ninjutsu.

Jiraiya felt a sense of déjà vu, because he had been in the same situation back then.

Among the three legendary Sannin of Konoha, he had the worst talent. It wasn't until he accidentally stumbled upon Mount Myōboku that his strength improved by leaps and bounds.

But what was Kitazawa's extraordinary encounter? Or was it simply a case of late bloomer?

"No wonder Tsunade came back to the village."

After seeing the psychological medical ninja system, Jiraiya couldn't help but sigh in amazement.

In fact, he did not expect to run into Tsunade when he returned to the village.

After all, Tsunade, like him, wandered all over the ninja world.

He was quite surprised to hear that she was in Konoha Village, but he was kicked out before he could ask why.

"This psychological medical ninja system will probably benefit many ninjas."

Jiraiya's pupils suddenly contracted, as if he had just thought of something, and he asked impatiently, "Could it also cure Tsunade's hemophobia?"

"Ah."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded and said, "I've already asked Kitazawa and the others to take care of it, but whether they'll succeed is hard to say."

"If we can successfully cure Tsunade's hemophobia, that would be wonderful!"

As Tsunade's teammate, Jiraiya was well aware of the origins of hemophobia and the pain it caused.

He wanted his hemophobia to be cured more than anyone else.

"Kitazawa is indeed qualified to be Tsunade's student."

Jiraiya put down Kitazawa's file and commented.

He didn't inquire about Kitazawa's extraordinary encounter, because there was no need.

Kitazawa is now Tsunade's student, a high-ranking official in Konoha, and the vice principal of the Ninja Academy.

He has enough power and status to keep his own secrets.

Besides, Kitazawa has already passed the tests of both Hiruzen Sarutobi and Tsunade, so there shouldn't be any problems.

"Ah."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded, then said with satisfaction, "He is also an excellent ninja academy teacher."

"No matter how outstanding the ninja academy teachers are, they're still just so-so."

Jiraiya didn't seem to care.

It's not like he never went to school.

In his view, the level of the ninja academy teachers was generally average; teaching the Three Body Techniques was the limit.

"Look at this."

Hiruzen Sarutobi took out the information on the genius class and handed it to him.

"Gifted Class?"

Jiraiya raised an eyebrow and quickly flipped through the document.

"How about it?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi asked with a chuckle.

"A very good reform."

Jiraiya had to admit, "If we had had a genius class back then, we might have been able to defeat Hanzo."

The legendary Sannin of Konoha made their name during the Second Shinobi World War, when the three of them fought against Hanzo of Amegakure.

But at that time, they were actually completely defeated.

Apart from them, all the other ninjas in Konoha Village died at Hanzo's hands.

Even the title of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha was bestowed upon them by Hanzo.

In a sense, the legendary Sannin of Konoha are a disgrace.

However, because the legend of the Three Legendary Sannin of Konoha was so widespread, the three of them could only let it go.

Who is Lina?

Jiraiya asked again.

"Rina Uzumaki, a survivor of the Uzumaki clan."

Hiruzen Sarutobi explained, "Tsunade and Kitazawa brought it back from Kusagakure."

"There are even members of the Uzumaki clan here?"

Jiraiya looked completely surprised.

"I didn't expect it either."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said thankfully, "Luckily, Kitazawa discovered it in time."

"I've learned what I needed to know. I'm going to go see Naruto."

Jiraiya casually placed the information about the genius class on the Hokage's desk.

"You can watch, but don't do anything unnecessary."

Hiruzen Sarutobi gave his instructions.

When do you plan to tell Naruto the truth?

Upon hearing this, Jiraiya frowned and asked.

"He's still young, let's talk about it after he graduates."

Hiruzen Sarutobi replied.

"It's New Year's Eve tonight, aren't you planning to bring Naruto along?"

Jiraiya looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi and asked.

"..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi fell silent upon hearing this.

"Tsunade is staying in the village now, what do you have to worry about?"

Jiraiya relentlessly questioned, "Old man, you were once a great ninja, why are you so hesitant now?"

"Bring Naruto to my house tonight."

Hiruzen Sarutobi hesitated for a few seconds, but finally agreed.

"That's pretty much it."

Jiraiya waved his hand and said, "I'm leaving. See you tonight."

"Looks like I really am getting old."

As Hiruzen Sarutobi watched Jiraiya jump out of the window, he couldn't help but sigh.

Both Tsunade and Jiraiya had more charisma than he does now.

But Jiraiya also had a big problem. Because he listened too much to the arrangements of Mount Myōboku and spent all his time outside looking for some prophetic child.

"It's safer to leave Konoha in Tsunade's hands."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said thoughtfully.

……

As the New Year approaches, Konoha Village becomes very lively.

Not only were all the shops on both sides of the street open, but there were also many mobile and temporary food and snack stalls.

Of course, the most numerous are the pedestrians coming and going.

Every street was packed with people.

Is your grocery store closed today?

Kurenai held Kitazawa's hand and warned, "Then you'll lose a lot of money."

"I won't go; spending time with you is more important."

Kitazawa shook his head and said, "Besides, I'm not short of money right now."

"This is true."

Kurenai Yuhi looked around and said, "You're now a medical ninja second only to Tsunade, so making money is a piece of cake for you."

"The premise is that you don't get involved in gambling."

Kitazawa casually remarked, "Otherwise, we'd end up penniless like Lady Tsunade."

"She's your teacher, after all."

Kurenai couldn't help but laugh and said, "Be careful she doesn't stuff all her IOUs into your hands."

"Don't say such horrible things."

Kitazawa's lips twitched involuntarily.

"Eh?"

Kurenai suddenly stopped and asked, "Do you think that's Asuma and Kakashi?"

"It really is them."

Kitazawa followed her gaze.

"Kitazawa!"

Matt Kay noticed them and quickly waved to them.

Sarutobi Asuma glanced over instinctively and saw their hands clasped together.

He immediately felt a heart attack.

"Asuma, when did you get back?"

Kitazawa stepped forward and asked.

"I came back yesterday afternoon."

Sarutobi Asuma replied.

"How did you all end up together?"

Kurenai asked curiously.

"We met by chance."

Sarutobi Asuma complained, "That old man suddenly sent someone to tell me to go out and buy groceries, saying that there are guests coming in the evening."

"Isn't today New Year's Eve? Why are there guests?"

Kurenai asked, somewhat puzzled.

"do not know."

Sarutobi Asuma shook his head and said.

"I know who it is."

Kitazawa had a sudden thought and said, "I saw Jiraiya-sama this morning."

"Jiraiya-sama?"

Kakashi Hatake, who had been expressionless, suddenly reacted.

A glimmer of light flashed in his dead fish-like eyes.

He had read that copy of "Intimate Paradise" many times, and wondered if there was a new copy.

"Ah."

Kitazawa said with a smile, "He went to find Lady Tsunade, and then got punched away."

"As expected of Lady Tsunade."

Kurenai Yuhi said with great admiration.

"I see."

A look of realization dawned on Sarutobi Asuma's face.

"Since it is Jiraiya-sama who is visiting, we should certainly make proper preparations."

Kurenai Yuhi said with a smile, "Today, Lady Tsunade is our guest."

Your home?
Sarutobi Asuma felt that this place was not a good place to stay.

He lost completely!
"You guys shop around, we'll go check out that supermarket."

Sarutobi Asuma pulled Kakashi Hatake along as they walked forward.

"Wait for me!"

Matt Kay immediately gave chase.

"Asma."

After careful consideration, Kakashi Hatake said, "I'll go home with you later. I need to talk to Jiraiya-sama about something."

"no problem."

Sarutobi Asuma paused for a moment, then asked with a smile, "How about you spend New Year's Eve at my house?"

"me?"

Kakashi Hatake was taken aback.

“You are Jiraiya-sama’s grand-disciple. It’s been so long since we last met. We can chat while we eat.”

Sarutobi Asuma laughed and said, "The old man will definitely be very happy to see you."

The time came at night.

Snow began to fall heavily from the sky.

Shizune and Rina Uzumaki arrived at Kurenai's house early to help prepare dinner.

Kitazawa was going to help too, but he was forced to come over.

Because it's already cramped with three people in the kitchen, it would be even more difficult for four people to move around, which would actually affect the efficiency of cooking.

In the living room, Karin sat cross-legged on the sofa, intently watching TV.

Kitazawa stepped forward and sat down next to Karin.

He got bored after watching TV for a while.

Television programs in the ninja world are truly unremarkable.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"I'll open the door."

Kitazawa stood up and went to the door.

When he opened the door, a beautiful and delicate face came into view; it was Tsunade.

Despite the snow, she was still wearing her tea-green coat with the word "gamble" printed on it.

"Lady Tsunade, why are you only arriving now?"

Kitazawa stepped back and let her into the house.

"I went and bought some wine."

Tsunade smiled and said with a slight upturn of her lips, "This kind of weather is perfect for drinking."

After she finished speaking, she bent down and began to take off her shoes.

Kitazawa glanced at her subconsciously and was immediately drawn to her skin, which was whiter than snow.

Aren't you afraid I'll punch you and send you flying?

Tsunade put down her shoes, looked at him, and asked.

"Not afraid."

Kitazawa said seriously, "I didn't do anything wrong."

He reached out and brushed the snow off her shoulder.

"I'll let you off the hook for now."

Tsunade paused slightly, then said.

She walked barefoot onto the carpet into the living room.

Kitazawa breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems we really need to control this aimbot.

"Tsunade-sama."

Karin quickly greeted her.

How's training going lately?

Tsunade sat down next to her, patted her head, and asked.

"very smooth."

Karin glanced at Kitazawa, "Kitazawa-sensei said I can try learning sealing techniques next week."

"As expected of a member of the Uzumaki clan."

Tsunade raised an eyebrow and said.

"The main reason is that Karin has a very good talent for sealing techniques."

Kitazawa sat opposite Tsunade and said with a smile.

"You taught her sealing techniques?"

Tsunade suddenly remembered something and asked, "Have you learned the three sealing techniques I gave you?"

"I've learned two."

Kitazawa said modestly, "My talent for sealing techniques is a bit lacking."

I really want to kick you out!

Tsunade rolled her eyes and said.

To have learned two sealing techniques in such a short time, one's talent in sealing techniques is not only superhuman, but also undeniably excellent.

"No need for Lady Tsunade to kick me, just tell me and I'll go out."

Kitazawa joked.

Having spent a lot of time with Tsunade, he has figured out her personality and is not so afraid of her anymore.

Although she is assertive, she also knows her limits.

She won't actually take action unless Kitazawa makes a mistake.

As for Jiraiya, he has too many past offenses, such as peeping at hot springs.

Tsunade naturally wouldn't give him a friendly look.

An hour later, the food was served.

Kitazawa, Tsunade, Kurenai Yuhi, Shizune, Rina Uzumaki, and Karin sat together.

"Come on, pour the wine!"

Tsunade placed all six bottles of alcohol she had bought on the table.

"Lady Tsunade, didn't I tell you to buy two bottles?"

Seeing this, Shizune became somewhat annoyed and asked.

"It's Chinese New Year today, how can two bottles be enough?"

Tsunade retorted confidently.

"fine."

Kurenai Yuhi smoothed things over by saying, "I'll drink with Lady Tsunade."

While she wasn't as addicted to alcohol as Tsunade, she was close.

"drink!"

Tsunade raised her wine glass and said.

"Wait."

Kitazawa grasped her wrist and said, "The first drink of the new year should be shared by everyone."

"Too."

Tsunade nodded and said, "You all raise your glasses, let's have a toast!"

Everyone except Karin raised their glasses.

"Happy New Year!"

Everyone said in unison.

……

The Sarutobi clan's stronghold.

"Today is a good day."

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Jiraiya, Asuma Sarutobi, Kakashi Hatake, and Naruto Uzumaki in front of him and said with a smile.

He couldn't remember the last time it had been this lively.
