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

Chapter 355 Shion Joins the Genius Class, the Power of the Shrine Maiden (Third and Fourth Updates)

"When?"

Kitazawa snapped out of his daze and asked.

"You agreed?"

Xiao Nan felt a sense of surprise.

Do you expect me to refuse?

Kitazawa chuckled and asked.

"That was not what I meant."

Xiao Nan shook her head and said, "The time is set for next Monday, and the location is the Valley of the End."

"The Valley of the End? He certainly picked a good place."

Kitazawa could probably guess why Kakuzu chose the Valley of the End.

It can only be said that he still can't forget Hashirama Senju and Wood Release.

Kitazawa had been very curious about the battle between Kakuzu and Hashirama Senju in his previous life.

It was only mentioned briefly in the original work without going into details, but there are quite a few rumors and speculations circulating about it.

For example, Kakuzu simply threw a kunai from 800 miles away, then ran away; no fight broke out.

For example, he only fought one of Hashirama Senju's wooden clones.

Kitazawa felt the latter was more likely.

Given Hashirama Senju's strength, Kakuzu simply couldn't escape, unless it was a wood clone.

"Thank you."

Xiao Nan said with a sincere expression.

Kitazawa and Kakuzu had never met before, so his agreement to spar was clearly out of consideration for her.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have agreed to a sparring match that would bring him no benefit.

"It's a handy thing."

Kitazawa knew she had misunderstood, but he didn't explain.

He stepped forward, reached out, and pinched her cheek.

Xiao Nan looked at him with her cool eyes, but did not stop him.

"Is there anything else?"

Kitazawa withdrew his hand and walked towards the sofa.

"The Akatsuki member you sparred with is called Kakuzu. He is proficient in all five elemental ninjutsu and compound ninjutsu."

Xiao Nan thought for a moment and then reminded her.

"You want me to win?"

Kitazawa sat on the sofa, looked at her, and asked with a smile.

"He can't beat you."

Xiao Nan sat down next to him, shook her head, and said.

Having witnessed the great battle between Kitazawa and Moryo, she knew that few in the ninja world could rival him.

Kakuzu is quite strong, but he is still a ninja after all.

"If you think he can't beat me, why did you tell me his information?"

Kitazawa grabbed her wrist, his gaze falling on her slender fingers.

Those amber-colored nail polishes were very eye-catching.

Kitazawa remembered that members of the Akatsuki organization seemed to have a habit of wearing nail polish.

No, it shouldn't be a habit.

He felt it was more like a unified action.

For example, Itachi Uchiha did not wear nail polish before joining the Akatsuki organization.

"I……"

Xiao Nan was momentarily at a loss for words.

"I'm going to take a nap."

Seeing this, Kitazawa didn't ask her any more questions, and simply turned to rest his head on her lap.

Xiao Nan stretched out her hands and gently pressed his forehead.

But her eyes, fixed on Kitazawa, revealed a complex mix of emotions.

2 p.m.

Kitazawa, along with Sasuke Uchiha, Naruto Uzumaki, and Neji Hyuga, arrived at the temporary base of the Land of Demons delegation in Konoha.

"Lord Kitazawa."

Ziyuan came out.

Foot tassels followed behind her.

"Your Highness, Priestess."

Kitazawa nodded and said, "These three will be your guides this afternoon. Just tell them where you want to go."

"Thank you!"

Upon hearing this, Ziyuan finally couldn't help but smile. "Then let's go now!"

"Let the kids play."

Kitazawa stopped Ashiho and said.

After hesitating for two seconds, Shiho nodded but did not follow.

He watched Ziyuan grow up and knew that she had never gone out to play.

You can just call me Shion!

Ziyuan revealed her childlike nature, jumping and skipping excitedly in the street.

"Ziyuan, are you interested in youth?"

Naruto Uzumaki gave a thumbs up and said, "I can take you to the place where we usually train our youth power!"

He was referring to the training ground where Matt Kay trained him and Rock Lee.

"Naruto."

Hyuga Neji quickly stopped her, saying, "Let's go to the Hokage Rock first and let Shion get to know the Hokage of our Konoha Village."

"I agree with Neji's suggestion."

Uchiha Sasuke immediately said.

"Okay!"

Ziyuan agreed without much thought.

Kitazawa withdrew his gaze and returned to the ninja academy.

He had already told Hyuga Neji that he would bring Shion to the Ninja Academy after they had finished their tour, so all they had to do was wait.

[Current Mission: Help Shino Aburame cultivate Parasitic Insects with Lightning Release Resistance.]

[Mission Reward: Increases own Lightning Release damage resistance by 10%.]

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

The three lines of text that suddenly appeared before him made Kitazawa stop in his tracks.

Was Shino Aburame's parasite mutation experiment successful?

Kitazawa glanced at the system notification and then turned and headed to another playground.

He took a few steps and bumped into Shino Aburame.

"Teacher Kitazawa?"

Shino Aburame paused for a moment, then said, "I was just looking for you."

"This is the parasitic thunder worm?"

Kitazawa looked at the parasitic insect in his hand and asked.

"Ah."

Shino Aburame nodded and said, "Like fireflies, parasitic thunderbugs come in two types: one lasts three seconds and the other lasts five seconds."

"Congratulations, Shino."

Kitazawa said with a smile, "Now we only need the last one, the parasitic insect with resistance to earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a type of insect that can be trapped in a hole).

"This is all thanks to Kitazawa-sensei."

"I am humbly speaking," said Shino Aburame.

[Current Task: Help Shino Aburame cultivate parasitic insects resistant to Earth Release techniques.]

[Task Reward: Increases own Earth Escape damage resistance by 10%.]

【Whether to accept? 】

A mission that was no surprise.

Kitazawa chose to accept.

Perhaps collecting all five resistances will give rise to special abilities.

"What are your thoughts on the parasitic insects that have resistance to earth-escape?"

Kitazawa snapped out of his daze and asked.

"My idea is to improve the defense against parasites."

"That's what Shino Aburame said."

"That is indeed one approach, but I think it's better than another."

Kitazawa said with a smile, "To give the parasitic insects the ability to burrow underground."

In the original work, there are no burrowing parasites.

However, in an official game, there was a skill called Arcane Art: Insect Swamp.

Its effect is that parasitic insects burrow underground, turning the area where the target is standing into an insect swamp.

Shino Aburame paused for a moment, then her eyes widened suddenly.

If such parasites truly exist, it means that their stealth capabilities have reached a new level.

It is extremely powerful whether used for reconnaissance or for surprise attacks.

"Thank you, Kitazawa-sensei!"

"Shino Aburame said with some excitement."

"Thank me after you succeed."

Kitazawa formed hand seals, creating a shadow clone, and said, "You and my shadow clone can conduct experiments."

The only three people in the Ninja Academy who know Earth Release are him, Hiruzen Sarutobi, and Kakashi Hatake.

At most, you could add Kiba Inuzuka, but he only knows one Earth Release: Earth Fang Bullet, which wouldn't help Shino Aburame.

Kitazawa returned to the playground where his study group was located.

"Teacher Kitazawa!"

Yamanaka Ino immediately ran up to him.

She hugged his arm, raised her head, and blinked as if she were trying to be cute.

"how?"

Kitazawa chuckled and asked, "You lost to Sakura?"

"No!"

Yamanaka Ino quickly shook her head and said.

"What's that for?"

Kitazawa asked curiously.

"I've learned the Magical Tree Binding Kill!"

Yamanaka Ino smiled broadly and said with great pride.

"good."

Kitazawa nodded and commented, "You now possess Chunin-level skill in genjutsu."

"Thank you, Kitazawa-sensei!"

Yamanaka Ino said happily.

"You can pause your learning of illusion techniques. I'll teach you the Leaf Village Body Flicker Technique first."

Kitazawa thought for a moment and said.

"This is good!"

Yamanaka Ino's eyes lit up, and she said.

Kitazawa, as usual, explained it to her for half an hour, and then created a shadow clone to teach her.

He found a place and began to learn the Wood Release: Wood Transformation Technique.

Time was spent in training.

In the last class, Shion and Naruto Uzumaki finally returned to the Ninja Academy.

"Your Highness, Priestess."

Kitazawa stepped forward and asked, "What's your impression of the ninja academy?"

"It's lively and energetic."

Ziyuan thought for a moment and then said.

There was one more thing she didn't say: it was several times better than the Land of Demons, making her reluctant to leave.

"You're about the same age as Naruto and the others, are you interested in enrolling?"

Kitazawa asked with a light laugh.

[Current Task: Persuade Shion to join the gifted class.]

[Mission Reward: Half of your Chakra Limit.]

【Whether to accept? 】

Kitazawa was surprised. The reward for this mission was an unusual increase in chakra limit.

Is it because Shion possesses powerful priestess power?

Kitazawa chose to accept.

This is practically a free reward.

At the same time, it also proved that Shion can indeed trigger system tasks.

Being able to trigger one system task means that more system tasks can be triggered subsequently.

"Eh?"

Ziyuan immediately exclaimed in surprise.

This was completely unexpected for her.

Her previous idea was to stay in Konoha Village for a while longer, but she never thought of staying to become a student at the Ninja Academy.

However, the suggestion was very appealing to her, and a conflicted expression unconsciously appeared on her face.

"But I am a priestess from the land of demons."

Shion sighed and said, "I can't leave the Land of Demons for long."

"Your idea is wrong."

Kitazawa shook his head and said, "The Land of Demons needs a powerful priestess. You can become stronger faster at the Konoha Ninja Academy."

"The land of demons has a lineage of priestesses."

Ziyuan hesitated for two seconds before speaking.

Having witnessed the performances of Sasuke Uchiha, Naruto Uzumaki, and Neji Hyuga, she knew that the Konoha Ninja Academy was indeed very powerful.

Especially with a strong person like Kitazawa as a teacher.

However, she had not fully mastered the traditions of the priestess of the Land of Demons.

If Ashiho and the others allow her to stay at the Ninja Academy on this basis, they will not agree.

"Does your priestess tradition teach sealing techniques?"

Kitazawa countered with a question.

According to the original work, Miroku and Shion only knew sealing techniques and did not know any other ninjutsu.

Thinking about it carefully, it makes sense, because the mission of a shrine maiden is to seal away evil spirits.

"Ah."

Shion nodded.

"Then let me ask you, now that the demon is gone, who are you going to seal with your sealing techniques?"

Kitazawa asked again.

"Eh?"

A look of astonishment appeared on Ziyuan's face.

This question hit the nail on the head, leaving her speechless.

“You possess great power, which was originally meant to seal away the demons, but now that the demons are gone, you should use it to protect the Land of Demons.”

Kitazawa said calmly.

Ziyuan couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

There are no ninjas in the Land of Demons, and the priestess's legacy only includes sealing techniques. Staying in Konoha Village is the best option for her if she wants to become stronger.

Of course, the most important reason was that she wanted to join the gifted program.

In the land of demons, she had no peers and had been confined to the temple of the witch goddess since childhood, completely alone.

"I'll go and discuss it with Azusa and the others."

Shion believed that Kitazawa's reasoning was enough to convince them.

Kitazawa nodded.

"Teacher Kitazawa, wait for me!"

Shion changed her address at lightning speed and jogged away from the ninja academy.

Bei Ze withdrew his gaze and continued his cultivation.

The bell rang.

The gifted students finished their training and went home.

"It's time to go home, Kitazawa."

Kurenai walked over from another playground and said with a smile.

Just as Kitazawa was about to speak, three lines of text appeared before him.

[Current Task: Persuade Shion to join the gifted class.]

[Mission Reward: Half of your Chakra Limit.]

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

It seems that Shion has convinced Ashiho and the others.

Kitazawa clapped his hands, ending his cultivation.

"Why aren't you leaving yet?"

Kurenai Yuhi sensed something was amiss and couldn't help but ask.

Kitazawa walked up to her and told her about Shion joining the genius class.

Is there anything special about her?

Kurenai asked curiously.

"Her situation is similar to Yakumo's."

Kitazawa replied.

"No wonder you wanted her to join the gifted program."

Kurenai Yuhi was startled.

She knew all too well how powerful Yakumo Kurama was.

"In addition, her joining the genius class is also beneficial to the relationship between Konoha and the Land of Demons."

Kitazawa said casually.

"Ah."

Yuhi Hong nodded.

This is not hard to understand.

Shion is a priestess of the Land of Demons. If she becomes a student in the genius class, Konoha Village and the Land of Demons will become an unbreakable ally.

"Teacher Kitazawa!"

A moment later, a radiant Shion ran up to them and exclaimed excitedly, "Ashiho and the others agreed!"

"Alright, you can join the gifted class tomorrow."

Kitazawa nodded and said.

"Ok!"

Ziyuan said with a big smile.

Do you know the purpose of this bell?

Kitazawa pointed to the bell she was wearing and asked.

“This was left to me by my mother, Maitreya.”

Ziyuan paused for a moment, then explained, "She said she could protect me in crucial moments."

"This bell has a sealing spell on it."

Kitazawa looked it over and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this is a sealing technique that suppresses power."

"What does it mean?"

Ziyuan looked bewildered and asked.

"literal meaning."

Kitazawa replied, "It's suppressing your power."

"But... I haven't discovered that I have any special power."

Ziyuan sensed something was amiss.

"Take the bell off."

Kitazawa gave the instructions.

Upon hearing this, Ziyuan grabbed the bell, hesitated for a moment, and then took it off.

In an instant, a terrifying power erupted from her body.

Ziyuan was startled and quickly put the bell back on.

She realized what was happening and couldn't help but look at her hands.

That force was ridiculously strong.

But she never knew that she possessed such great power.

Kurenai Yuhi also showed a surprised expression.

This force made her feel suffocated.

If it were chakra, it would be dozens or even hundreds of times more than her chakra.

Kurenai Yuhi let out a long sigh.

These geniuses really left her speechless.

Kitazawa stroked his chin.

In the original work, the powers of the demons and the priestesses originated from the same source.

Kitazawa had assumed that the shrine maiden's power, like that of the demon, was a Yin Release technique, but now it seems that it is not, but rather a rare Yang Release technique.

So, "same origin" actually refers to mutual generation and mutual restraint? No wonder the priestess was able to seal away the demon.

If it were Yang Release, Shion could follow a similar path to Karin, focusing on sealing techniques, medical ninjutsu, and taijutsu.

The most lacking skill in the genius class right now is undoubtedly a medical ninja, with only Karin and Sakura Haruno available.

Now, adding a violet flower will slightly alleviate the awkward situation.

“Your mother gave you a bell because you couldn’t control this power.”

Kitazawa explained.

There is actually another reason: the Land of Demons has no other ninjutsu besides the sealing technique used to seal away demons.

Unable to handle the immense power within Shion, Miroku resorted to the most brutal method: sealing it away.

"I see."

A look of realization dawned on Ziyuan's face.

"Starting tomorrow, you will begin training in chakra control."

Kitazawa patted her head and said.

Like Yakumo Kurama, Shion was born with great power.

She can skip the step of refining chakra and go directly to learning how to use this power.

In a sense, Naruto Uzumaki is also in this situation.

"See you tomorrow."

Kitazawa said with a smile.

"Goodbye, Kitazawa-sensei!"

Ziyuan happily turned and left.

"If she grows up, the geniuses in the gifted class will face a tough challenge again."

Kurenai looked at Shion and said.

"That's a good thing."

Kitazawa grasped her hand and said, "Pressure is what drives us."

"Although what you said makes a lot of sense, it's a good thing I didn't have a gifted program back then."

Kurenai Yuhi shook her head and said.

She doesn't actually have any grand ambitions; she's content to be a virtuous wife and loving mother.

"Hong, do you remember what I said before about finding you a summoning beast?"

Kitazawa stroked her smooth little hand and asked.

Although Kurenai Yuhi didn't have many ambitions, she was still his woman, so he would try his best to enhance her strength.

"You've found a summoning beast that suits me?"

Kurenai Yuhi became interested and asked, "What kind of summoning beast is it?"

"It's called a mirage, and it can cast illusions."

Kitazawa replied.

"There's actually a summoning beast that can use illusion magic?"

Kurenai asked, somewhat surprised, "Where did you find it?"

"Not found yet."

Kitazawa shook his head and said, "It is the summoning beast of the Second Mizukage, Hozuki Gengetsu."

"...?"

Kurenai suddenly stopped in her tracks.

"Although Hozuki Gengetsu is dead, his summoned beast is still alive."

Kitazawa said with a smile, "It all depends on whether you dare to use it."

"What am I afraid of?"

Kurenai Yuhi snapped out of her daze and said, "If you dare to give it to me, then I naturally dare to use it."
