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

Chapter 251 Kitazawa's Team Falls into a Trap (First and Second Updates)

Will the arrival of the Fourth Mizukage cause Kirigakure to change its tactics?

Akimichi Choza asked the question.

I have a feeling it will.

Hiashi Hyuga pondered for a moment and said, "As a Kage, both his strength and influence are enough to turn the tide of battle."

"Although the Fourth Mizukage is very powerful, we are not inferior to him either. Lady Tsunade is not inferior to him."

The Eighth Hokage of Uchiha was very confident and said, "The arrival of the Fourth Mizukage will not change anything."

Kitazawa stood to the side, listening to the discussion, and noticed something.

They didn't know that the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, was the Jinchūriki of the Three-Tails.

But this is normal.

Each ninja village tries its best to conceal the identity of its Jinchuriki.

One reason is to better protect them in normal times.

Secondly, the presence of a Jinchūriki on the battlefield can have unexpected effects.

of course there are exceptions.

For example, the two Jinchuriki of this generation in Kumogakure did not hide their identities; they were completely open and aboveboard.

Compared to other ninja villages, the Fourth Raikage had more confidence.

He believed in the strength of Kumogakure and the Jinchūriki, so he didn't care whether they were exposed.

“I think there’s one more thing we should consider.”

Kitazawa coughed lightly and asked, "Since the Fourth Mizukage is here, where are the Jinchūriki?"

He didn't directly say that Yagura Karatachi was the Jinchūriki of the Three-Tails.

After all, he couldn't explain the source of the intelligence.

"What Kitazawa said is indeed possible."

Nara Shikaku's expression turned serious upon hearing this, and he said, "If the Fourth Mizukage brings his Jinchūriki, then we will be no match for him."

In the minds of most ninjas, only a Jinchuriki can defeat another Jinchuriki.

That's actually true.

The power of a Jinchuriki after transforming into a Tailed Beast is terrifying.

There are very few ninjas in the entire ninja world who can suppress Jinchuriki, or rather, Tailed Beasts.

Kitazawa fell into deep thought.

Human Jinchūriki are indeed a big problem.

Especially considering that Tsunade also suffers from hemophobia.

In the current Konoha Village headquarters, probably only Itachi Uchiha's Mangekyou Sharingan can play the greatest role.

Kitazawa suddenly had a thought.

He realized he had gone astray.

Defeating Yagura was not his goal; breaking Obito Uchiha's control was.

In that case, it would be perfectly acceptable to point out that Yagura Karatachi was being controlled during the battle between the two sides.

The ninjas of Kirigakure will definitely not believe it, but that doesn't matter. Even if they don't believe Kitazawa, they have to believe Ao.

Qing has white eyes.

The reason he hadn't discovered that Yagura was being controlled was because he didn't dare to use his Byakugan to spy on him.

After all, that was the Fourth Mizukage.

Even a ninja from the Hyuga clan wouldn't be idly using their Byakugan to spy on Hiruzen Sarutobi.

In fact, Konoha Village has its own rules.

Unless under special circumstances, members of the Hyuga clan are not allowed to use the Byakugan in Konoha.

No one can tolerate a ninja with X-ray vision spying everywhere.

Kitazawa suspects that this is the reason why Hinata Hyuga was able to be kidnapped by the Hidden Cloud Village ninjas at home in the original work.

"To prevent the possibility of a Jinchūriki appearing, I will have the old man send the sealing team over."

Tsunade thought for a moment and then said.

Naruto Uzumaki is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki of Konoha Village.

He is still young, and it's not yet the most critical moment for Konoha Village, so it's impossible to bring him to the battlefield.

Bringing in the sealing team is the best solution.

"Everyone, get ready first. We'll react to Kirigakure's actions once the Fourth Mizukage arrives."

Tsunade concluded.

After the meeting ended, everyone left the main tent.

Kitazawa didn't leave; he stayed where he was.

"Kitazawa, is there anything else?"

Tsunade looked at him and asked.

"I'll ask Itachi about the ninja academy."

Kitazawa stated the truth.

"You are a very competent teacher."

Tsunade smiled upon hearing this and said, "Shizune, go and call Itachi here."

Shizune nodded.

"Lady Tsunade, are you confident you can defeat the Fourth Mizukage?"

While waiting, Kitazawa asked.

"No."

Tsunade leaned back, her buttocks resting on the table, showing their elasticity, and said jokingly, "I still need you."

"This is the first time I've ever heard such a thing come from Lady Tsunade's mouth."

Kitazawa smiled and said.

Tsunade was slightly startled.

Reminded by Kitazawa, she realized what was going on.

These are words that don't sound like something she would say.

"You are my student."

Tsunade regained her languid demeanor and asked nonchalantly, "If I don't rely on you, who will I rely on?"

She has always been shameless.

After all, she was chased all over the ninja world by her creditors in order to escape them.

"What if I can't beat them?"

Kitazawa stepped forward and stood beside her.

"Let's run for our lives together."

Tsunade glanced at him and said, "If you can't beat them, run away. Only a fool would stand still and die."

"As expected of Lady Tsunade."

Kitazawa gave a thumbs up and said.

"That's what they say, but if Kirigakure really brings a Jinchūriki, it will be very troublesome for them to run away."

Tsunade rubbed her temples, looking quite troubled.

With her movements, large swaths of her fair skin rippled.

Kitazawa's gaze suddenly fell into an abyss.

"What are you looking at?"

Tsunade raised her hand and elbowed his arm.

"Feel sorry."

Kitazawa quickly replied, "It's human instinct."

"You seem quite nonchalant."

Tsunade paused for a moment, but wasn't angry. She said, "It's a pity that Rina hasn't learned the Adamantine Sealing Chains yet."

In the original work, Kushina Uzumaki, who had just given birth, was able to suppress the Nine-Tails with the Adamantine Sealing Chains.

"She hasn't had enough time to learn sealing techniques, there's nothing we can do."

Kitazawa shook his head and said.

After being rescued and brought back to Konoha, Rina Uzumaki has been recuperating.

As for her time in Kusagakure, she didn't even have the opportunity to learn sealing techniques.

"Ah."

Tsunade waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, the sealing techniques of the sealing team are not bad either."

"Tsunade-sama."

Just then, a sound of silence came from outside the tent.

"Itachi is here, go find him."

Tsunade raised her head slightly and said.

"Call me if you need anything."

Kitazawa greeted him and then left the main tent.

Tsunade stared blankly at his retreating figure.

She always felt that her relationship with Kitazawa was strange, not like that of a teacher and student.

"You guys chat."

Silently, without disturbing them, she picked up Tun Tun and left.

"Itachi."

Kitazawa spoke up, "I have something I'd like the Anbu to help me with: the final exam rankings for the genius class."

"This is simple."

Upon hearing this, Itachi Uchiha immediately agreed, saying, "I will return to Konoha Village tomorrow."

"Don't go back to Konoha Village during this time. You can play a greater role if you stay."

Kitazawa shook his head and said.

"Then I'll send someone back."

Uchiha Itachi paused for a moment, then changed his words.

As a member of the Anbu, he naturally knew about the upcoming arrival of the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi.

Does Kitazawa really have that much faith in his abilities?
Itachi Uchiha couldn't help but feel puzzled.

After all, he had never revealed his Mangekyou Sharingan.

Itachi Uchiha didn't think much of it.

What if Kitazawa was just mentioning it casually?

"Thank you."

Kitazawa didn't waste any more of his time; after a few words, he returned to his tent.

Kurenai Yuhi and Kabuto Yakushi didn't leave after they finished eating.

"The Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, will probably arrive tomorrow."

Kitazawa sat down next to Kurenai and spoke.

"Even the Fourth Mizukage has come?"

Kurenai looked completely surprised.

Yakushi Kabuto and the others were also surprised.

"Don't worry, we'll just do what we're supposed to do."

Kitazawa paused, then asked, "Kabuto, and Izumi, how's your ninjutsu training going?"

"The Composite Ninja Art: Flame Wind Chaos Wave is very difficult; we estimate it will take another half month."

Uchiha Izumi said, somewhat embarrassed.

Both Wind Release: Pressure Damage and Fire Release: Head Carving are B-rank ninjutsu.

They learned while fighting, and within a month, they were barely able to use it.

However, the Composite Ninja Art: Flame Wind Chaos Wave is different; when combined, it reaches an A-rank difficulty.

More importantly, since they are working together as a pair, they need to coordinate their efforts.

"Izumi has the Sharingan, so it might not take half a month."

"Ikushi Kabuto added."

"The Sharingan is indeed very useful."

Upon hearing this, Kurenai Yuhi sighed and said, "My mastery of Wind Release: Rasengan is much slower than yours."

Kabuto Yakushi and Izumi Uchiha were Kitazawa's students and her juniors.

They learned ninjutsu around the same time, but she was the slowest.

Kurenai Yuhi deeply felt the gap in talent.

“Senior Kurenai, you have learned A-rank ninjutsu, while we have only learned B-rank ninjutsu.”

Kabuto Yakushi said with a smile, "If we also learned A-rank ninjutsu, we definitely couldn't compare to you." "You know how to talk."

Kurenai couldn't help but laugh.

"Everyone, go back and rest."

Kitazawa stood up and said, "I'll let you know if there are any missions."

"Yes, Kitazawa-sensei."

The three, including Kabuto, said in unison.

Kitazawa and Kurenai entered the tent.

"I wonder if I'll be able to learn Wind Release: Rasengan before the war ends."

As Kurenai stretched, her clothes became quite breathtaking.

Kitazawa glanced at her subconsciously and realized she was far inferior to Tsunade.

However, we can't blame Kurenai Yuhi for this.

In the entire ninja world, only Samui and Hinata Hyuga are probably comparable to Tsunade.

"Just do your best, don't push yourself too hard."

Kitazawa sat down cross-legged and took out paper and pen.

He rarely learned new ninjutsu during this period; at most, he would use his three-tomoe Sharingan to copy the ninjutsu of the Hidden Mist Village ninjas.

Of course, even though he didn't learn ninjutsu, he wasn't idle.

His main task is to modify medical ninjutsu that allows severed limbs to regenerate.

After so much effort, and with the forbidden medical technique of physical regeneration as a foundation, his progress is quite good.

Kitazawa felt he could get it done within the month.

Seeing this, Kurenai did not disturb him, but instead began to practice Wind Release: Rasengan.

Konoha remained relatively calm after the arrival of the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi.

But a group of people at the Hidden Mist Village headquarters were unable to sleep.

A green tent.

Mei Terumi and the other Jonin from Kirigakure rushed over after receiving the notification.

"What did Elder Yuan say?"

A young ninja asked impatiently.

All the Jonin who can come here for the meeting belong to the Master faction.

For example, Zabuza Momochi is not here.

As a genius, he was proud and arrogant, and disdained to join any faction.

In the original work, he even attempted to assassinate the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, in an attempt to take his place.

Elder Yuanshi also did not know the specific reason.

Qing shook his head and said.

"Then what should we do?"

Mei Terumi frowned slightly. "Once the Mizukage arrives, he will definitely take over command, and we will all have to follow his orders."

"The Mizukage will most likely lead us in a full-scale attack on Konoha."

Another middle-aged ninja spoke up, "I wonder how many more casualties this will cause."

He didn't think highly of Kirigakure.

The gap between Kirigakure and Konoha is obvious to the naked eye, and it cannot be bridged by adding one more Yagura.

"In recent years, the Mizukage's behavior has become increasingly strange, and his declaration of war against Konoha Village is extremely irrational."

A middle-aged ninja standing next to Qing asked firmly, "Elder Yuan, are you just going to let Lord Mizukage continue to act recklessly?"

"Elder Yuanshi naturally does not want to see Kirigakure destroyed."

Qing took a deep breath and said, "But the Mizukage has just arrived and the war hasn't even started yet, so we can't persuade him."

"Should we wait until the Mizukage suffers a defeat before offering advice?"

Mei Terumi understood the implication in his words.

“This is the only way.”

Qing said helplessly.

The Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, was powerful and highly respected in Kirigakure.

Even if they want to overthrow their superiors, they have to wait until he suffers a setback.

The night finally came to an end.

a new day.

Kitazawa didn't take on any missions and remained at the Konoha Village headquarters.

Kabuto Yakushi and Kurenai Yuhi were busy training in ninjutsu as always.

A morning passed quickly.

Around noon, Kitazawa met Uchiha Itachi.

"This is the ranking of the final exams for the gifted class."

Itachi Uchiha handed him a scroll and said.

"Thank you."

Kitazawa took the scroll and said.

"There's another piece of information."

Uchiha Itachi suddenly remembered something and said, "Half an hour ago, the Fourth Mizukage arrived at the Kirigakure headquarters."

Kitazawa nodded and opened the scroll.

He couldn't help but let out a soft "hmm".

Because the scroll not only contains rankings, but also the training progress of the gifted students.

Clearly, this was an unnecessary move by Itachi Uchiha.

However, this unnecessary step suited Kitazawa's wishes perfectly.

It can only be said that it is indeed Itachi Uchiha; he can handle everything very thoroughly.

For example, Sasuke Uchiha from the original work was dealt with very clearly by him.

Kitazawa closed the scroll after reading it.

The final exam rankings for the gifted class were roughly the same as the rankings for the previous monthly exam.

Naruto Uzumaki remains the top scorer in the practical exam.

Having mastered Wind Release: Gale Palm and Wind Release: Great Breakthrough, combined with the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, he was practically invincible.

Although Sasuke Uchiha learned the Leaf Style: Willow, it had little effect on Naruto Uzumaki.

Because Konoha Style: Willow is a combination of illusion and swordsmanship.

He can only defeat Naruto by using Lightning Release ninjutsu.

Yamanaka Ino made the most progress.

She learned the magic technique of Naraku's Sight.

Although genjutsu was not well portrayed in the original work, it was very useful against ninjas other than those from the Uchiha clan.

In particular, Yamanaka Ino's opponents are a group of students who have not yet graduated.

In addition, there has been initial progress in Shino Aburame's parasitic insects.

With the help of Kosuke Maruboshi and Sakura Haruno's Water Release techniques, parasitic insects with resistance to Water Release techniques appeared.

Of course, this is just the beginning. The parasitic insects have not lasted long enough to complete Kitazawa's system tasks.

After lunch, Kitazawa was called to a meeting by Tsunade.

They only talked about one thing: the change in Kirigakure's tactics.

The Hidden Mist Village ninjas left the island, preparing to establish bases and outposts on the shore.

The situation in the war suddenly changed.

Previously, when Kirigakure relied on the island for defensive warfare, Konoha Village took the lead.

Now it's reversed again, returning to the situation at the very beginning of the war.

However, the addition of the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, significantly increased the intensity of the competition.

In particular, many Kirigakure ninja adopted a reckless fighting style.

A week passed in the blink of an eye.

It's mid-May now, and the weather has warmed up considerably.

The main headquarters of Konoha Village.

“In the past week, Kirigakure has suffered more than twice as many casualties as us.”

Nara Shikaku reported, "But after paying a price, they established many strongholds and outposts on the shore."

"Ah."

Tsunade had anticipated this and was not surprised.

"Lady Tsunade, I think we should launch a counterattack."

Uchiha Yatsuho said in a deep voice, "We can't let the ninjas of Kirigakure be so arrogant."

"I called you all here precisely to discuss this matter."

Tsunade nodded slightly and said, "Three days ago, I sent three small teams composed of ANBU and Hyuga clan ninjas to infiltrate deep behind enemy lines."

"Any results yet?"

Uchiha Hachimoku's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

"This is the map they drew."

Tsunade opened a scroll and said, "The red dots on it are the strongholds heavily guarded by Kirigakure."

Kitazawa looked up and glanced at the scene instinctively.

There are four red dots on the map.

The red dot in the very center is the current location of Kirigakure's main base.

The other three red dots represent two supply points and one medical ninja outpost.

"I plan to send three ninja squads to destroy these three strongholds, in addition to the Hidden Mist Village headquarters."

Tsunade thought for a moment and said, "Yashiro, Choza, and Kitazawa, the three of you will lead the team."

"Yes, Tsunade-sama."

Kitazawa paused for a moment, then agreed.

The next step is the specific allocation and discussion.

Kitazawa was assigned a supply point located on an island.

Besides their team, there was also a team led by Hyuga Himon, totaling eight people, including five Jonin, a truly impressive lineup.

"Lord Kitazawa, I never imagined we would fight side by side."

Hyuga Himon said happily.

After all, Kitazawa is very powerful, and the success rate of missions with him will be much higher.

"Meet at the camp entrance in five minutes."

Kitazawa smiled and said.

"Ok."

Hyuga Hido immediately ran to call his teammates.

Kitazawa also brought Kurenai Yuhi, Kabuto Yakushi, and the others to the camp entrance.

Five minutes later, the two teams met up and headed towards their destination.

With the help of Aburame Torune's Phosphorous Beasts and Hyuga Himon's Byakugan, they arrived at Kirigakure's supply point at sea without any trouble.

It was already dark.

"There's nothing wrong with the intelligence."

Hyuga Himon rolled his eyes and said, "There are four Jonin, sixteen Chunin, and sixteen Genin at this supply point."

"Then proceed according to plan."

Kitazawa nodded and said, "I'll use water jutsu to destroy their traps and create chaos, then you can attack."

"With Lord Kitazawa's water-style techniques, we'll definitely be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort."

Hyuga Himon said with a smile.

He had previously raided the Hidden Mist Village's stronghold with Kitazawa, so he had witnessed Kitazawa's devastating water-style techniques.

Just as Kitazawa was about to form hand seals, four splashes of water suddenly erupted from the sea.

Four Hidden Mist Village ninjas emerged from the water and surrounded them.

"The Fourth Mizukage?"

Hyuga Hido's eyes widened suddenly after he clearly saw one of the Hidden Mist Village ninjas.

Kitazawa's gaze sharpened.

They've fallen into a trap!
