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

Chapter 325 Shikamaru's Unexpected First Place, the Power of the Shikotsumyaku (Third and Fourth Updates)

Tuesday, Ninja Academy.

The gifted students and teachers all came to the playground.

Extroverted students like Naruto Uzumaki, Kiba Inuzuka, and Rock Lee share their experiences during their missions.

Kitazawa didn't disturb them, but instead obtained the ratings of the students they were teaching from Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others.

He glanced around and thought to himself that there were quite a few students who got full marks.

Kitazawa could understand.

After all, the students in the gifted class are all very outstanding.

It's hard to find fault with Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki, especially.

nine in the morning.

The students in the gifted class stopped chatting and looked at Kitazawa.

Sasuke Uchiha clenched his fists instinctively.

He was determined to win first place.

Because of his perfect performance in this mission, Kosuke Maruboshi gave him a perfect score.

If he gets third place in the theory exam, then his final ranking will be first.

"I will announce the rankings of the theory exam first."

Kitazawa noticed Sasuke Uchiha's tense expression, smiled, and said, "Similar to last time."

He picked up the ranking list and read it aloud.

"Third place again!"

Sasuke Uchiha's spirits lifted; he felt the ultimate number one beckoning to him.

"Shikamaru, how exactly did you learn that?"

Naruto Uzumaki felt envious.

He often ranked first in practical exams, but due to poor performance in theoretical exams, he never ranked first in the final rankings.

"do not know."

Nara Shikamaru, with his hands behind his head, casually remarked, "Anyway, I could figure out those questions after just one look, so I didn't really study them much."

"...?"

Naruto Uzumaki looked completely bewildered.

"Shikamaru, why are you copying Sasuke too?"

Kiba Inuzuka's face darkened upon hearing this, and he angrily retorted, "So what if you're smart!"

Uchiha Sasuke twitched the corner of his mouth.

What has it got to do with me?
When have I ever acted like that?

"hateful!"

Yamanaka Ino clenched her little fist and said, "Whenever the practical exam comes around again, I'm definitely going to beat you up!"

"He deserves to be taught a lesson!"

It was rare for Sakura Haruno to stand on the same side as Ino Yamanaka.

"Ahem, I was just kidding."

Nara Shikamaru immediately replied from the bottom of his heart.

"Intelligence is innate, there's nothing you can do about it."

Tian Tian shook his head and said.

"Kimimaro made great progress in this theory exam. Everyone should remember to learn from him."

Kitazawa said with a smile.

"...?"

Tayuya sensed that Kitazawa was giving her a hint.

Because her ranking in the theory exam remained virtually unchanged, still at the bottom.

Tayu also thought of this and gritted her teeth in anger.

Shigeo didn't react.

Bai felt somewhat ashamed, as he had been busy with Ice Escape and hadn't paid much attention to the theory.

After Kitazawa said that, he decided to spend more time studying the theory next month.

"Next are the performance scores of the top ten students in completing the tasks over the past two days."

Kitazawa picked up the second ranking list and said, "This time, five students got full marks, the most ever. They deserve praise."

"so much?"

Yamanaka Ino looked surprised.

Could it be that she is involved?
No, that's not right. Kitazawa said she and Haruno Sakura got the same score.

Although they all performed well, they were still a bit inferior to Kaguya Kimimaro, so they probably didn't get a perfect score.

Uchiha Sasuke was startled.

He sensed danger.

Given so many perfect scores, his perfect score is no longer an advantage.

What if... no, there is no "what if"!

"The students who got full marks are Uchiha Sasuke, Uzumaki Naruto, Kurama Yakumo, Kaguya Kimimaro, and Nara Shikamaru."

Kitazawa stated this directly.

"What? Shikamaru is there?"

Kiba Inuzuka's eyes widened in surprise.

You got a perfect score?

Yamanaka Ino subconsciously looked at Nara Shikamaru.

"Can't I get a perfect score?"

Nara Shikamaru countered with a question.

He already knew, so he wasn't surprised.

"If we're just talking about the precautions during the mission, Shikamaru knows them better than any of us."

Kurama Yakumo said thoughtfully.

One of the theoretical lessons at the Ninja Academy is related to missions.

The main content is about what to do when going out on a mission, how to deal with enemies, etc.

"Too."

Tian Tian nodded and said, "After all, his theory score was full marks."

"and many more!"

Sakura Haruno suddenly exclaimed, "He has a perfect score in both theory and performance in missions, so wouldn't his final ranking be...?"

As she said this, she subconsciously looked at Uchiha Sasuke.

After being reminded by her, Uchiha Sasuke also realized the problem.

He lost first place.

For a moment, Sasuke Uchiha felt his head buzzing.

How could something with a 100% probability of success turn out to be unexpected?
"Yes!"

Choji Akimichi realized what was happening, stopped eating his potato chips, and said with a surprised look, "Shikamaru is the ultimate winner this time!"

"Someone actually managed to take first place from Sasuke and Naruto?"

Kiba Inuzuka immediately became excited and exclaimed, "I feel like I have a chance too!"

Previously, these were all theoretical possibilities, but now a real-world example has emerged, which greatly excites him.

After all, none of them expected that Nara Shikamaru would win first place.

"Kimimaro, congratulations."

Jugo didn't participate in the discussion; instead, he looked at his good friend.

"Thank you."

Kaguya Kimimaro responded calmly.

But in reality, he was still very happy. Being able to get first place in the practical exam meant that he hadn't let Orochimaru down.

Tayu also felt frustrated.

In Otogakure, she was one of the best among a group of experimental geniuses, but when she arrived in Konoha, she faced setbacks at every turn.

"This is really unexpected."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said with a chuckle.

"Unexpected events are inherent in completing tasks."

Maruhoshi Kosuke said, "I think this is a good thing, so that Sasuke won't become arrogant if he's always number one."

"With Naruto and Yakumo around, Sasuke won't become arrogant or complacent."

Kakashi Hatake thought for a moment and then said.

Although Sasuke Uchiha was born into the Uchiha clan, he did not pick up the clan's bad habits.

In Kakashi Hatake's view, he and Obito Uchiha were both considered outliers within the Uchiha clan.

“Attending classes in a gifted program is much more fun than staying at home.”

Chen Baojun now feels that agreeing to Bei Ze's request was the right choice.

"I am now announcing the final rankings."

After reading out the rankings of the practical exam, Kitazawa said with a smile, "First place, Nara Shikamaru."

To be honest, he didn't expect Nara Shikamaru to get first place.

Moreover, this wasn't the result of his underhanded tactics, because Nara Shikamaru wasn't on his team.

But upon closer reflection, it makes perfect sense.

After all, Nara Shikamaru's current strength is not bad, and coupled with his intelligence and changed personality, it is normal for him to perform perfectly and get a perfect score.

"Shikamaru, you have to treat us today!"

Choji Akimichi immediately spoke.

"Yes!"

Kiba Inuzuka said fiercely, "But you got first place!"

"I also need to go!"

Naruto Uzumaki said excitedly.

"Everyone is going, and Hinata is going too."

Yamanaka Ino said with a smile, "Let Shikamaru feel heartbroken."

"can."

Nara Shikamaru agreed.

There's nothing wrong with treating someone to a meal.

But with Choji Akimichi and Hinata Hyuga combined, it would be a major test for his wallet.

but it does not matter.

Nara Shikamaru decides to ask his parents for reimbursement.

He got first place in the gifted class, so his parents would definitely be more than willing to pay for it.

Uchiha Sasuke stood there, his face sullen, radiating an aura that kept strangers at bay.

The excitement belongs to them; I have nothing.

"These are the rankings for this month's exam."

After Kitazawa finished reading, he said, "Everyone, let's continue training."

The students in the gifted class went to find their respective teachers and began their training for the day.

Kitazawa glanced at Uchiha Sasuke.

His emotions come and go quickly.

Although losing first place made him very unhappy, it wasn't the first time he had lost first place, so he quickly adjusted.

[Current Mission: Help Kaguya Kimimaro achieve first place in a practical exam.]

[Quest Reward: 20% Corpse Bone Vein]

[The host has completed the mission; reward issued.]

[When the bone vein reaches 70%, the ability to create periosteum and heal rapidly is triggered.]

Kitazawa was taken aback. He felt a slight change in his body.

[Forming the periosteum: A hard membrane forms beneath the skin, enhancing the body's defenses.]

[Rapid Healing: Enables rapid recovery from external injuries.]

Kitazawa looked at the two lines of text in front of him and recalled Kaguya Kimimaro's performance in the original work.

He does indeed possess both of these abilities; the periosteum he creates can even withstand Gaara's Sand Burial.

As for rapid healing, it is mainly used to heal wounds caused by bones piercing the skin and wounds caused by enemies.

Overall, they are two very good abilities.

With the addition of the Unmarked Healing and Yin Seal, he felt that he was becoming increasingly difficult to die.

"Shigego, come with me."

Kitazawa formed hand seals and created a shadow clone, which he then used to instruct the students in the genius class.

Although Jugo was puzzled, he stopped training and left the ninja academy with him.

……

Hokage Building Conference Room.

Genma Shiranui, with a senbon stick in his mouth, pushed open the door.

He glanced at it and was taken aback.

Because there were two unexpected acquaintances in the meeting room: Deivashi and Namichi Raido.

The three of them had served as bodyguards for the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, and they had all mastered the Flying Thunder Formation technique.

The Flying Thunder Formation Technique is a weakened version of the Flying Thunder God Technique. Simply put, it is a Flying Thunder God Technique used by three people together.

Three people forming a circle can move people or objects within the formation.

Compared to the Flying Thunder God Technique, it is completely inflexible and cannot be used in battle.

"Genma? You're here too?"

When Namiya Raito saw him, he paused for a moment and asked.

"Genma, do you know why the Anbu notified us to come here?"

"Ivashi asked curiously."

"That's exactly what I was going to ask you."

Genma Shiranui stepped forward, shook his head, and said.

"Could it be that the Hokage intends to use the Flying Thunder Formation Technique?"

"Ivashi asked, guessing."

"possible."

Namiya Raido nodded and said.

"Then why don't you just let us go to the Hokage's office? Coming to the conference room would be redundant."

Genma Shiranui pondered for a moment and said, "I don't think that's the purpose."

Just then, footsteps sounded.

The three of them turned to look at the doorway and met the gazes of Izumo Kamizuki and Tetsuo Koko.

"Why are you guys?"

The five people asked in unison.

"You two also received a notification from the Dark Guard?"

Genma Shiranui paused for a moment and then asked.

"Yes."

Izumo Kamitsu scratched his head and said, "And we were also told that we don't have to guard the gate anymore."

"It seems there's something special we need to do."

"He said in a deep voice, 'I am with you.'"

"It might take a long time."

Gangzi Tie nodded, somewhat regretfully, and said, "I think the job of a goalkeeper is quite interesting."

"What are you talking about?"

Izumo Kamizuki nudged him and said, "Since the Hokage has something for us to do, we must go through fire and water for him!"

And what's so interesting about being a goalkeeper?

That's interesting; they don't often go to the Chunin Exams to act as examiners.

"So lively?"

Suddenly a voice drifted over.

Then a female ninja with a pineapple-shaped hairstyle and a smile on her face walked over.

"Red Bean, you even came?"

Genma Shiranui asked in confusion, "What exactly did the Hokage want with us?"

"It doesn't feel like a small matter."

Namiashi Raido analyzed, "We already have four special Jonin and two Chunin here."

Izumo Kamizuki and Tetsuo Kotetsu are still Chunin.

In the original work, they became special Jonin when Kakashi Hatake became the Sixth Hokage.

"Don't think too much about it, just wait."

Mitarashi Anko waved her hand dismissively, saying, "Anyway, the Hokage will come."

"Too."

Nami and the others nodded.

A moment later, everyone subconsciously looked towards the doorway.

Kitazawa and Jugo walked in.

"Kitazawa?"

Genma Shiranui immediately showed a surprised expression.

"Lord Kitazawa."

Namiashi Raido, Kamizuki Izumo, and the others realized what was happening and quickly greeted them.

Actually, they were all ninjas of the same generation, but things are different now. Kitazawa has become someone they can no longer reach.

"Kitazawa, what did you call us here for?"

Mitarashi Anko asked casually.

She was Orochimaru's student, and theoretically, she was of the same generation as Kitazawa.

In addition, she has a straightforward personality and doesn't care about what people call her.

"It's Tsunade-sensei's order."

Kitazawa said with a smile, "She asked you to form the Cursed Seal Force."

Genma Shiranui and the others looked at each other, not knowing what the cursed seal was.

"Are you talking about the Heavenly Curse Mark and the Earthly Curse Mark?"

Mitarashi Anko asked with a surprised look.

"good."

Kitazawa nodded and said, "More accurately, it's an improved version of the Earth Curse Seal."

"I see."

Mitarashi Anko's face showed a look of realization.

She was about to say that the success rate of inoculating with the Heavenly Curse Mark and the Earthly Curse Mark was very low, and it was not suitable for establishing any Curse Mark troops.

"You two should also take care of us."

Genma Shiranui couldn't help but retort.

They had absolutely no idea what the two of them were talking about.

"Is such that."

Kitazawa gave a detailed account of the Earth Seal and the Seal Force.

"You mean I should be in charge?"

Mitarashi Anko paused for a moment, then suddenly asked excitedly.

Since Orochimaru's defection, she, as his student, has never been given an important position in Konoha.

Now that Tsunade has put her in charge of the Cursed Seal Squad, her position is clearly going to change.

Mitarashi Anko speculated that this was most likely related to Orochimaru's return to Konoha.

Genma Shiranui and Raido Namiashi were also very excited.

Their situation was actually similar to that of Mitarashi Anko.

After the death of the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, they lost their power and became ordinary special Jonin.

"The Cursed Seal Force is tentatively set at sixty-two people. You and Genma will be in charge, managing fifteen ninja squads."

Kitazawa nodded and added, "The Cursed Seal Force will be directly under the Hokage."

Mitarashi Anko, Shiranui Genma, and the others all smiled upon hearing this.

Directly under the Hokage, in a sense, the Cursed Seal Force and the Anbu are organizations or departments of the same level.

As the two in charge, they practically rose to the ranks of Konoha's high-ranking officials overnight.

"The improvement of the Earth Seal is divided into two directions. One is to increase the success rate of inoculation, which is the responsibility of Lord Orochimaru."

Kitazawa continued, "Secondly, I am responsible for limiting the side effects of the Earth Curse Seal, and I have successfully improved it."

"I've heard about your title of Creative Ninja for a long time, and now that I see it, it's truly impressive."

Mitarashi Anko said with complete admiration.

She understood the Heavenly Curse Mark and the Earthly Curse Mark better than Genma Shiranui and the others, and knew the difficulty of modifying them.

"Let me demonstrate it for you first."

Kitazawa looked at Jugo and said, "His name is Jugo, and he is equivalent to an Earth Curse Mark Inoculator."

Jugo looked at him expectantly.

He had understood the conversation just now; Kitazawa had indeed come up with a way to help him limit the side effects of his immortal physique.

He will no longer have to worry about turning into a killer due to the loss of control over natural energy.

"Shigego, take off your shirt."

Kitazawa gave the instructions.

Shigeo immediately did as instructed.

"My improved Earth Seal is called the Eightfold Earth Seal."

As Kitazawa spoke, he formed hand seals and inscribed the seal technique on Jugo's body.

Everyone watched his actions intently.

However, most people only had a superficial understanding, and only Mitarashi Anko understood quite a bit.

"Once Lord Orochimaru successfully improves the Earth Curse Seal, you will be inoculated with it."

Half an hour later, Kitazawa withdrew his hand and said.

Jugo's upper body was covered with spell patterns, but they were slowly fading away.

Under normal circumstances, it will only appear after using the Earth Seal; otherwise, there will be no difference.

"It's not too late to withdraw now."

Kitazawa looked at them and said with a smile.

"We definitely won't back down."

Mitarashi Anko and the others said with firm expressions.

Not only can it enhance strength, but it can also elevate status; such a good thing is hard to find even with a lantern.

"Your task during this period is to find members for the Cursed Seal Squad, compile a list, and hand it over to Tsunade-sensei."

Kitazawa clapped his hands and said, "That's all for now, see you next time."

He swiftly and decisively led Jugo out of the conference room.

Mitarashi Anko, Shiranui Genma, and the others stood there stunned, feeling that today's experience was truly a dream.

Suddenly they joined the Cursed Seal Force and gained tremendous benefits.
