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

Chapter 358 Taking a Step Closer to Tsunade, Akatsuki Faces a Shortage of Members (First and Second Updates)

Konoha Village's Forest of Death.

Xiao Nan descended from mid-air.

Although they could fly directly back to the Anbu base, such an act would be far too conspicuous, and half of the ninja in Konoha would find out.

Konan released Kitazawa and was about to take a step back when she was pulled back.

Are you wearing perfume?

Kitazawa lowered his head, sniffed at her neck, and asked.

"No."

Xiao Nan spoke with a normal expression.

"It smells nice."

Kitazawa chuckled and released Konan.

"If you like..."

Xiao Nan stopped halfway through her sentence, realizing that her statement was too ambiguous.

Why did you suddenly stop talking?

Kitazawa looked at her beautiful and delicate face and asked.

"I'm going back to the Akatsuki organization today."

Konan changed the subject, saying, "The quest for Hozuki Gengetsu should be completed."

"Go early and return early."

Kitazawa nodded and said.

"Ah."

Xiao Nan responded and then disappeared from the spot.

Kitazawa returned to Konoha Village and, after a moment's thought, went to the Hokage's office.

He pushed open the door but didn't see Tsunade immediately.

Kitazawa turned to look at the sofa and saw her lying there without any regard for her image.

It was an unsurprising result, but it was still better than her going directly to the casino.

"It's only morning, why do you look so tired?"

Kitazawa closed the door and walked up to her.

Looking down from above, you can clearly see the clothes tilted.

Why can't I be tired in the morning?

Tsunade asked casually with her eyes closed.

"Are you planning to rest up in the morning and go to the casino in the afternoon?"

Kitazawa squatted down and once again understood what it meant to be at the highest level while lying down.

Is this how you see me?

Upon hearing the word "casino," Tsunade immediately opened her eyes and turned to look at him.

As she moved, her clothes bunched up, the neckline opened wide, revealing her snow-white skin and the necklace that was half-buried.

"Have you ever cared about your image?"

Kitazawa's eyelids twitched, and he asked.

“Your image can’t be exchanged for money, but you’ve reminded me.”

Tsunade paused for a moment, then said matter-of-factly, "Give me the money!"

"As expected of Tsunade-sensei, she can easily make money while lying down."

Kitazawa praised.

"That's my money!"

Tsunade glared at him and asked, "Why can't I have it?"

"I didn't say I wouldn't give it to you."

Kitazawa said with a smile, "What I mean is that it's not easy for you to get money while you're lying down."

Tsunade reluctantly sat up upon hearing this, but remained relaxed against the sofa.

"Seeing how tired you are, I'll reluctantly give you a massage."

Kitazawa sat down next to her, patted his thigh, and said.

Tsunade leaned down and rested her head on his lap, her legs flat on the sofa.

"I think you're not tired, you're just lazy."

Kitazawa reached out and gently rubbed her soft face.

"What are you doing? Have you no manners?!"

Tsunade warned him with her eyes and said.

"massage."

Kitazawa, without changing his expression, moved his hands up and placed them on her forehead.

Tsunade pursed her lips and closed her eyes again.

Her body quickly relaxed, and she drifted off to sleep.

Kitazawa glanced at her instinctively.

Her breathing was very steady, and her clothes rose and fell rhythmically, creating a visually striking effect.

Kitazawa thought for a moment, and pale green chakra flowed from his hand.

Time passes slowly.

Tsunade woke up.

She stretched and felt refreshed.

"Thank you."

Tsunade stood up, looked at Kitazawa, and said.

"Just thank you?"

Kitazawa sat on the sofa and looked up to meet her gaze.

Tsunade stepped forward and braced her legs against the sofa.

She bent down and slowly lowered her head.

Kitazawa watched as her soft red lips gradually approached and finally touched his.

He instinctively reached out his hand.

Because Tsunade was standing, he placed his left hand on her thigh but his right hand on her buttocks.

The different sensations in his left and right hands made him instinctively scratch them.

Tsunade gave a soft snort, but only tapped his head with her hand.

After she finished knocking, she hugged his head and started a verbal battle.

Seeing this, Kitazawa gently stroked her buttocks with both hands, feeling the perfect contours.

Tsunade pushed him away only when she could no longer tolerate his actions.

She took a step back, slightly out of breath, a blush creeping onto her fair cheeks.

"If you dare to misbehave like this again, watch out, I'll kick you out!"

Tsunade said fiercely.

"I understand, Tsunade-sensei."

Kitazawa listened to this harmless threat and spoke with a serious expression.

"I'm hungry, let's go eat."

Tsunade glanced at the clock on the wall, changed the subject, and said...

"Eat out? Or eat here?"

Kitazawa nodded and asked.

"Let's eat at the Konoha Casino!"

Tsunade immediately perked up.

Kitazawa shook his head helplessly.

Did a few words reveal his true colors?

"Let's go, don't waste time."

Tsunade turned around and walked to the door of the Hokage's office.

"Did you forget something?"

Kitazawa smiled and reminded him, "Go ask Senior Sister Shizune for leave."

"I'm leaving Jingyin to you. Go and persuade her."

Tsunade stopped and urged, "Go quickly, I'll wait for you!"

Kitazawa stood up and came to her.

He leaned forward and kissed her again, which made her glare at him angrily before he walked toward the Hokage Secretariat.

Tsunade watched him leave, licked her lips, and a smile involuntarily appeared on her face.

After saying goodbye to Shizune, Kitazawa and Tsunade arrived at the Konoha Casino.

Today, the Konoha Casino is the most successful casino in Konoha Village.

Firstly, because of the service, and secondly, because of fairness.

Although the earnings will be less than those of other casinos, it is still an astronomical sum.

After lunch, Tsunade couldn't wait to get to the gambling table.

Kitazawa sat down next to her and, taking advantage of the time, went through his system tasks.

Compared to before, he has fewer unfinished system tasks left, only five.

The two long-term system tasks are to help Naruto Uzumaki become the perfect Jinchuriki and to form the new Sannin of Konoha.

Three relatively short-term system tasks: cultivate four trusted confidants, help Bai learn three ice escape techniques, and cultivate parasitic insects resistant to earth escape techniques.

Kitazawa stroked his chin.

We need to find a way to trigger more system tasks.

Five system tasks are a bit too few, and helping Bai learn three Ice Release techniques will be completed soon, leaving only four.

In addition, the task of cultivating four trusted confidants may be completed at any time.

Having completed so many system tasks, Kitazawa has probably figured out the pattern for triggering them.

First, growth-oriented tasks are mostly triggered by students in gifted classes.

The students in the gifted program are now on the right track in their training.

The student most likely to trigger the system task is probably Shion, who just joined.

In addition, there is Kaguya Kimimaro.

Kitazawa mentioned him because his Corpse Bone Vein was still 30% away from being fully activated.

Second, ninjutsu-related tasks, such as learning ninjutsu and creating ninjutsu.

Kitazawa thought of Sage Mode.

This is what he most wants to learn right now.

As for Wood Release, it is limited by one's own chakra, preventing the learning of more advanced Wood Release techniques.

When it comes to Sage Mode, the three sacred sites of summoning beasts and Jiraiya are the most likely to trigger related system quests.

Should I go fight Jiraiya? Or should I fight the Great Toad Sage or the White Snake Sage?
Kitazawa felt it wouldn't be that easy.

Third, event-based missions, which involve major plot points from the original work.

During this period, there are no major plot developments or main storylines; we'll have to wait until the Akatsuki implements the Eye of the Moon Plan.

Kitazawa could start the main storyline earlier, but it's unnecessary.

Because his strength is not yet invincible, he doesn't want any problems to arise.

In addition to the main storyline, there are also many side stories and theatrical episodes.

He had already done things like the Paradise Box in Kusagakure and the Demon Kingdom's Wraith, and completed the related system tasks.

Fourth, combat-type missions, which are triggered by defeating or killing some named ninjas.

For example, the challenge I just completed today came from Kakuzu.

Kitazawa suddenly thought of Hozuki Gengetsu.

As the Second Mizukage, he should theoretically be able to trigger the relevant system tasks.

Could it be because he was resurrected through the Impure World Reincarnation?
Thinking about it carefully, it makes sense. If Hozuki Gengetsu can trigger system quests, then Kitazawa can complete a lot of system quests at once.

All he needs to do is dig up all the famous ninjas who died in the ninja world and resurrect them using the Impure World Reincarnation technique.

Kitazawa secretly regrets it.

Although the system is somewhat idiotic, it works normally most of the time and won't allow him to exploit any loopholes.

In summary, these four types of tasks are the most frequently triggered.

However, while there are patterns, they don't guarantee that the event will trigger if the conditions are met; it's more likely to trigger.

Kitazawa fell into deep thought.

sunset.

Unsurprisingly, Tsunade lost again that afternoon. Kitazawa followed her out of the casino, looking quite annoyed.

"hateful!"

Tsunade stomped down, and a stone on the ground instantly turned to dust.

"Tsunade-sensei."

Kitazawa cautioned, "Don't damage the ground."

Tsunade turned around abruptly, staring at him with an unfriendly gaze.

"If you damage the ground, I'll have to find someone to repair it tomorrow."

Kitazawa said with a smile.

"I never intended to damage the ground."

Tsunade raised an eyebrow and snorted, "I am, after all, the Hokage."

"Jingyin and the others will be off work soon. If they get home and find that we are not there, they will definitely become suspicious."

Kitazawa glanced at the sky and said.

"Let's go then."

Tsunade immediately responded upon hearing this.

She was somewhat afraid of being silent, or rather, she felt guilty.

After all, he had secretly run away from work and spent an afternoon at the casino.

Tsunade glanced at Kitazawa subconsciously.

She sensed something subtle.

Although Kitazawa, like Shizune, usually keeps an eye on her, things are completely different when it comes to crucial moments.

For example, today.

Kitazawa became her accomplice, taking her to the casino.

"what happened?"

Kitazawa noticed her expression and asked with a smile.

"I want to eat tender chicken and drink alcohol tonight."

Tsunade coughed lightly and said.

"Then you go back first and deal with Senior Sister Jingyin and the others. I'll go buy some tender chicken and wine."

Kitazawa thought for a moment and then said.

"Ah."

Tsunade nodded and turned to leave.

The next day, Tuesday.

In Amegakure, the village of the Land of Rain, it was still raining.

But the atmosphere is different from before.

In the past, both ninjas and villagers would feel annoyed when it rained.

Now, seeing rain is like seeing money; everyone is extremely excited.

Xiao Nan glanced around.

Every household has already installed a water connection device.

Rainwater will flow through pipes on the rooftops and eventually collect in a reservoir outside the village.

Xiao Nan withdrew her gaze and walked onto the high platform.

"Why did you come back suddenly?"

Pain looked at Konan, his tone revealing a hint of surprise.

"I received a mission in Konoha, so I came back."

Konan explained, "I plan to have Kakuzu and Hidan carry it out."

She did not tell Nagato that the commission came from Kitazawa.

Kitazawa's identity was rather sensitive, and she was worried that Nagato would refuse, so it was better not to say anything.

Pain nodded without asking any further questions.

Although he was the leader of the Akatsuki organization, Konan was in charge of the vast majority of the organization's affairs.

He is, after all, a god; all he needs to do is protect the Land of Rain.

"There is something."

Pain suddenly remembered something and said, "Deidara has returned to Iwagakure for some business."

Xiao Nan was taken aback.

Deidara was Onoki's student. Why did he return to Iwagakure?
For some reason, Kitazawa's image popped into Xiaonan's mind.

She always felt that this matter was related to Kitazawa, or more accurately, to his Wood Release technique.

"Our Akatsuki organization is currently facing a manpower shortage crisis."

Pain continued, "I have already sent White Zetsu out to look for a suitable candidate. If a suitable one is found, it will notify you."

The Akatsuki organization recruited members for two purposes: to capture the Tailed Beasts and to allow the Gedo Mazo to absorb the Tailed Beasts.

Strictly speaking, the latter is more important.

Nagato could capture the Tailed Beasts on his own, but he couldn't let the Gedo Mazo absorb them.

This involves an S-rank sealing technique called the Nine Seals of the Illusionary Dragon.

Its effect is to release the tailed beast from the Jinchuriki's body and then put the tailed beast into the Gedo Mazo.

The only problem is that this sealing technique requires ten ninjas to perform together.

Furthermore, you can't just randomly pick ten ninjas; they must be the elite ninjas among the jonin.

After all, the Nine Seals of the Illusionary Dragon is an S-rank sealing technique.

Ordinary ninjas couldn't possibly learn this.

In addition, the Nine Seals of the Illusionary Dragon will last for several days, and ninjas without sufficient strength simply cannot withstand it.

In short, the Akatsuki organization must maintain at least ten members.

However, because of Kitazawa, Itachi Uchiha, Kisame Hoshigaki, Orochimaru, and Deidara did not join or were not in the Akatsuki organization due to various reasons.

"I understand. I'll make time to recruit people when the time comes."

Xiao Nan nodded and said.

The Akatsuki organization's recruitment method was rather simple and brutal: beat them up first.

White Zetsu has little combat ability, so Konan has to go.

As for Pain, unless there are special circumstances, he basically will not leave Amegakure.

Thursday arrived in the blink of an eye.

Before nine o'clock in the morning, all the students in the gifted class had arrived at the classroom.

The reason is simple: today is the first day of the final exams, which is the day of the theory exams.

Are you planning to go on vacation during summer vacation?

Yamanaka Ino lay on the table, blew a breath, and her golden bangs swayed.

"Summer represents youth, and youth is all about intense training!"

Naruto Uzumaki gave a thumbs up and said.

"Aren't you tired from training all day?"

Yamanaka Ino asked helplessly.

How can youth feel tiring?

Naruto scratched his head and asked in return.

"You shouldn't have asked Naruto that question."

Kiba Inuzuka couldn't help but remark, "His stamina is more than all of ours combined."

"Do you want to go to the Land of Demons?"

Suddenly, Ziyuan remembered something and asked.

"The festival in the Land of Demons is so much fun!"

Naruto's eyes lit up and he immediately spoke.

"There's nothing fun to do, so let's train instead."

Uchiha Sasuke said calmly.

"Then I want to train too!"

Sakura clenched her fist and said, "I'll be able to easily defeat Ino then!"

"No way!"

Yamanaka Ino sat up straight instinctively and said confidently, "I will work even harder than you!"

"I'm definitely the one who worked the hardest!"

Naruto's teeth flashed as he said, "Because youth is all about striving!"

"That's not certain!"

Tayuya interjected.

"really."

Aburame Shino echoed.

"You're all finished!"

Nara Shikamaru listened to their efforts and felt heartbroken.

"Shikamaru, you worked very hard too."

Choji Akimichi said with a smile, "I've seen you training after school several times."

"Eh?"

Ziyuan's eyes widened in surprise.

So she's the laziest one?
"Cough cough."

Nara Shikamaru changed the subject, saying, "How about we discuss the group assignments for this practical exam?"

"What's there to discuss?"

Kiba Inuzuka shook his head and asked.

When they were first divided into groups, they all had their own thoughts, such as who they wanted to team up with.

But after so many group assignments, the novelty of the first group assignment is gone.

For them, it doesn't really matter who their teammates are.

"pity."

Ziyuan said regretfully, "I can't team up with you guys."

Although she knows some sealing techniques, she has little combat ability and will not be able to enter the top eighteen of the genius class in a short period of time.

"You'll be our teammate sooner or later."

Tian Tian said with a smile, "None of the transfer students in the genius class are bad."

"is it?"

Ziyuan was taken aback.

"Because all the transfer students in the gifted class were found by Mr. Kitazawa."

Yamanaka Ino said with a proud look, "Kitazawa-sensei's judgment is very accurate, he never made a mistake."

Hinata Hyuga nodded subconsciously.

Her little hands were clasped together, and she had only one thought in her mind: she hoped that Kitazawa would be the teacher leading the team this time.

nine in the morning.

The theory exam for the gifted class has officially begun.

But Kitazawa didn't go to the classroom; he handed over the task of proctoring the exam to Umino Iruka.

He went to the Forest of Death and began to learn Wood Release.

He has already learned the Wood Release: Wood Transformation Technique, and now he is learning the Wood Release: Wood Clone Technique.

In the original work, the Wood Clone Technique is probably the most useful among all the clone techniques.

Simply put, it is more durable, harder to spot, and more resistant to damage.

The most outrageous one is Madara Uchiha, whose wood clones can activate Susanoo.

Although its strength is far inferior to the original body, this also proves the special nature of the wood clone.

Time passed during training.

Footsteps sounded.

Konan appeared in front of Kitazawa.

She returned to Konoha Village the day before yesterday and successfully brought back a portion of the Second Mizukage, Gengetsu Hozuki's, body.

"The rankings for the theory exams in the gifted class are out, Kitazawa."

Xiao Nan spoke up to remind him.

　Five thousand words, two chapters combined.
