Chapter 457 The Students as Adults (Part 2 Combined)
Time flies.

Five years have passed since Kitazawa defeated Isshiki Otsutsuki.

For the past five years, the ninja world has maintained peace.

The peaceful environment allowed the ninja world to enter a period of rapid development.

It is no exaggeration to say that the ninja world has basically achieved modernization.

The leading industries are computers, the internet, games, and movies.

The ninjas and residents of the ninja world adapted very quickly.

Although they weren't used to it at first, over time they came to appreciate the beauty of their new life and happily embraced it.

The Hokage's office in the Fire Country Metropolis.

Compared to five years ago, nothing has changed here.

The only change was that there was a computer on the Hokage's desk.

The paper documents that used to be piled up on the Hokage's desk have completely disappeared, replaced by electronic documents.

Of course, very important matters will still be documented in paper form.

However, most daily chores are communicated via the internet, which saves both paper and time.

"His Majesty."

Xiao Nan knocked on the door and came in after receiving permission.

Kitazawa looked up at her.

Thanks to the effect of the Yang Seal, she remains as beautiful and charming as she was five years ago, showing no signs of aging.

"This is Jiraiya-sensei's latest novel."

Xiao Nan took out a novel and said, "He asked me to bring one to you."

"Icha Paradise again?"

Kitazawa chuckled and asked.

"No."

Xiao Nan shook her head.

Kitazawa became slightly interested upon hearing this.

He took the novel, and on the cover were four large characters: "Son of Prophecy".

Kitazawa paused slightly, already guessing what was written on it.

After defeating Isshiki Otsutsuki, the Great Toad Sage of Mount Myōboku suddenly changed his attitude.

It not only recruited the toads into Konoha's summoning beast squad, but also told Jiraiya that Kitazawa was the child of prophecy.

Kitazawa was somewhat surprised when he heard this.

After all, he didn't go to Mount Myōboku out of respect for Tsunade.

However, he could guess the reason.

There's nothing special about it; it's just four words: strength is paramount.

Judging from the original work, the Great Toad Sage's prophecy does indeed have a certain degree of accuracy.

It likely learned something through prophecy.

Moreover, Kaguya Otsutsuki is located in the metropolis of the Land of Fire.

Although she usually wears an ANBU mask, she can't hide it from the Great Toad Sage.

It played a significant role in enabling Hagoromo and Hamura to sacrifice their own family for the greater good.

It was naturally very familiar with Kaguya Otsutsuki.

Kaguya Otsutsuki became an ANBU ninja, so what else can it do?

The neighboring Yongji-dong has set an example.

Kitazawa, on the other hand, didn't seem to care.

With his strength, he no longer cares about Mount Myōboku.

As long as Mount Myoboku behaves itself, he won't bother with it.

The most painful change for the Great Toad Sage was undoubtedly that of Jiraiya.

He spent most of his life searching for the prophesied child, only to be told now that it was Kitazawa.

But since things had come to this point, there was nothing more he could say.

After learning that Kitazawa was the Child of Prophecy, he retired immediately, just like Tsunade.

Now I just wander around the ninja world every day, gathering information.

Kitazawa casually opened the novel written by Jiraiya.

He glanced at the table of contents.

While it's said to be about the child of prophecy, it actually describes the events that have occurred in the ninja world over the past decade.

However, most of the content is related to him.

Kitazawa shook his head.

He suspected that Jiraiya was using his name to sell his novels.

The content itself is alright, though; it could be adapted into a film or television series by the film and television department.

The film and television department has a specific task: to produce a film or television series related to Konoha Village or the Land of Fire from time to time.

"Xiao Nan".

While reading a novel, Kitazawa asked, "Do I have any plans for the future?"

"The graduation ceremony of the ninja academy."

Xiao Nan answered immediately.

"In the blink of an eye, Naruto and Sasuke have graduated once again."

Kitazawa paused for a moment, then sighed in admiration.

Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha graduated once when they were twelve years old.

However, after the ninja school was reformed, the six-year school system was extended to twelve years, and Kitazawa required them to continue their studies.

the reason is simple.

They are no longer just simple ninjas, but aim to become multi-skilled ninjas.

In addition to ninjutsu, one also needs to master a great deal of other knowledge.

Pure ninjas only exist in the five major ninja squads.

Especially Hinata Hyuga and Ino Yamanaka.

As secretaries to the Hokage and the Emperor, they couldn't even carry out their daily work without comprehensive knowledge.

Besides, with their strength and the ability to create shadow clones, they could manage to balance going to school and going to work without any problems.

Five years have passed, and they have all turned eighteen and are ready to graduate.

"The ninja academy's graduation ceremony is this Sunday."

Xiao Nan reminded him.

Kitazawa nodded slightly.

Today is Friday, which means the graduation ceremony is the day after tomorrow.

He couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Now that Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki have graduated, their positions should be adjusted.

The imperial guard, in particular, seemed to be a waste, becoming a nominal position.

Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki are already eighteen years old and are fully capable of taking on some important positions.

After all, in the original work, they became the saviors of the ninja world at the age of seventeen.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

Kitazawa snapped out of his daze and said.

Xiao Nan then stepped back and hid in the duty room behind the bookshelf.

It's called a duty room, but it really only has one bed.

The door was opened.

"Teacher Kitazawa."

Yamanaka Ino poked her head out and greeted him with a smile.

Her golden ponytail cascaded down her snow-white shoulders, swaying gently in mid-air.

"Why are you acting so suspiciously?"

Kitazawa couldn't help but ask with a smile.

"No, I was just worried that I was disturbing your work."

Yamanaka Ino straightened up and walked into the Hokage's office.

She had changed into the bodysuit from the original work.

After revealing her flat stomach and long, slender legs, she looked youthful, beautiful, and tall.

"What do you want?"

Kitazawa asked casually.

"I'm here on behalf of the gifted class to invite Mr. Kitazawa to participate in tomorrow's graduation photo shoot."

Yamanaka Ino tilted her head and said playfully, "You can't refuse."

"Since you've said so, I definitely have to participate."

Kitazawa chuckled and said.

"The graduation photo shoot starts at nine o'clock in the morning."

Yamanaka Ino added.

"I will be there on time."

Kitazawa nodded and said.

The ninja world is now on the right track.

He was basically an emperor who did nothing.

Because the Hokage Secretariat can handle the vast majority of matters or tasks.

"Then I'll go first... Kitazawa-sensei."

As Yamanaka Ino was about to leave, she suddenly remembered something.

She took a few steps forward and bent down.

Her golden ponytail slipped down again.

"Is there anything else?"

Kitazawa smelled a faint fragrance.

"Pat on the head."

Yamanaka Ino blinked and said. Kitazawa chuckled.

He raised his hand and ruffled her hair.

Yamanaka Ino squinted her eyes, like a golden kitten.

She reluctantly straightened up, turned around, and left the Hokage's office.

Yamanaka Ino let out a long sigh unconsciously.

She is a complete sucker for good looks.

In the original work, the reason she married Sai was that he looked very similar to Uchiha Sasuke, and both of them were handsome.

But right now, in her opinion, the most beautiful part of the entire Hidden Leaf Village is Kitazawa.

In particular, he remains youthful due to his talent.

In other words, barring unforeseen circumstances, it will be difficult to find a second ninja who can rival him for a long time to come.

The problem is that Kitazawa is her teacher, and he already has a girlfriend, Kurenai Yuhi.

Yamanaka Ino had the desire to steal but not the courage; at most, he would just do some intimate little things like what happened just now.

She returned to the ninja academy with a long face.

"Ino, why the look on your face? Did Kitazawa-sensei not agree?"

Kurama Yakumo asked in confusion.

"It's normal that Kitazawa-sensei didn't agree."

Nara Shikamaru, with his hands behind his head, said, "After all, he's very busy."

"It would be a shame if Kitazawa-sensei didn't come."

Kiba Inuzuka shook his head and said.

"I feel like my youth is missing the most important part."

Naruto scratched his head and said.

Hinata Hyuga was momentarily stunned.

She was previously debating whether or not to ask Kitazawa to take a photo of the two of them together.

“I didn’t say that Kitazawa-sensei wasn’t coming.”

Yamanaka Ino snapped out of her daze and said.

Hinata Hyuga subconsciously raised her head, her heart leaping with joy.

It seems her wish has not been in vain.

"what?"

Kurama Yakumo paused for a moment, then asked, "What was with that expression you just made?"

"I'm thinking about something else."

Yamanaka Ino said somewhat embarrassedly.

"It's fine as long as Kitazawa-sensei can come."

Sakura Haruno said with a smile, "Without him, our genius class wouldn't be complete."

"Although Mr. Kitazawa hasn't taught us for a long time, he has had the greatest influence on us."

Shino Aburame adjusted her glasses and said.

"We owe our current strength to Mr. Kitazawa."

He echoed this sentiment every day.

Uchiha Sasuke, Hyuga Neji, Karin, and others nodded in agreement.

"The only pity is that there was no practical experience in the graduation exam."

Naruto Uzumaki said with great regret.

"There's no need for actual combat, since we can't beat you and Sasuke anyway."

Kiba Inuzuka couldn't help but complain.

Five years have passed, and the gap between them has not narrowed but has widened.

"If you want to fight, I'm happy to oblige."

Uchiha Sasuke said calmly.

He and Naruto Uzumaki have sparred many times, and they are basically evenly matched.

"I suggest you ask Kitazawa-sensei tomorrow."

Kaguya Kimimaro pondered for a moment before speaking.

"That's possible."

Naruto Uzumaki said with a smile, "It's been five years since Kitazawa-sensei served as our sparring referee."

The next day arrived.

Kitazawa woke up from his warm bed.

He patted Kurenai's thigh and then touched Tsunade's chest before getting up and changing his clothes, satisfied.

After having breakfast, he went to the Hokage's office.

To his surprise, he didn't see Konan, but Hinata Hyuga instead.

The current Hinata Hyuga is very similar to her in the original work.

She had waist-length hair, wore a Konoha headband around her neck, and was dressed in long clothes and trousers.

But conservative clothes couldn't completely hide her figure.

Especially the treasure hidden under the Leaf Headband, it was practically ready to burst forth.

"Teacher Kitazawa."

Hinata Hyuga instinctively stood up.

"Good morning, Hinata."

Kitazawa reached out and patted her head.

Hinata Hyuga's eyelashes trembled slightly, and a blush immediately appeared on her beautiful face.

She used to have no reaction when I touched her head, but as she's grown up, her thoughts have changed.

Kitazawa chuckled, pinched her cheek, and then withdrew his hand.

"Kita... Kitazawa-sensei."

Hinata Hyuga composed herself, took out a bento box, and said, "This is a bento I made for you."

Worried that Kitazawa might refuse, she bent down, bowed slightly, and handed over the lunchbox with both hands.

As she moved, the curves of her clothes became very obvious.

Kitazawa thought of Tsunade.

Hinata Hyuga, now grown up, is truly remarkable.

"Thank you."

Kitazawa put away the lunchbox and said.

"Today... we're taking graduation photos."

Hinata Hyuga clenched her small hands, mustered her courage, and asked, "Kitazawa-sensei, can we take a picture together later?"

"Take as many photos as you want."

Kitazawa replied.

"Thank you, Kitazawa-sensei."

Hinata Hyuga couldn't help but smile.

With the lingering blush, she looked even more adorable.

"Let's go, let's go to the ninja school."

Kitazawa extended his hand and said.

Hinata Hyuga suppressed her shyness and placed her small hand on it.

Kitazawa grabbed her hand and used the Flying Thunder God Technique.

The two of them suddenly appeared on the playground of the ninja academy.

Kitazawa looked around and examined the ninja academy.

He hasn't come for a while.

The ninja school today is dozens of times larger than it was five years ago.

After all, the students at the Ninja Academy today come from the entire ninja world.

Hinata Hyuga glanced at Kitazawa subconsciously.

She quickly looked away and lowered her head.

Feeling the warmth from Kitazawa's palm, she was overjoyed, and her blush became even more pronounced.

She only hurriedly pulled her hand back when she noticed Uchiha Sasuke and Yamanaka Ino.

"Teacher Kitazawa!"

Naruto Uzumaki and Kiba Inuzuka waved excitedly.

The others were excited, but they didn't show it too obviously and remained relatively composed.

"His Majesty."

Iruka Umino, Hiruzen Sarutobi, and other teachers from the genius class came over.

"It's almost time, let's start taking graduation photos now."

Kitazawa nodded and said.

There's no set procedure for taking graduation photos; it's just that the whole class stands together and the photographer takes pictures.

The camera existed in the original work, and now, with advancements, it is even closer to the original.

"I want to stand next to Kitazawa-sensei!"

After seeing Kitazawa confirm the location, Yamanaka Ino rushed forward and hugged his arm.

Hinata Hyuga didn't say a word, but ran to his left.

She just didn't dare to hug Kitazawa like Yamanaka Ino did; she could only feel envious.

The others quickly took their positions.

After the group photo, it's time for individual photos or group photos.

Kitazawa was naturally the most popular.

I took a group photo with each student.

When it was Hinata Hyuga's turn, she gritted her teeth and, just like Ino Yamanaka before her, grabbed Kitazawa's arm.

Kitazawa immediately felt a soft touch on his arm.

 Four thousand words, two chapters combined into one. It's the last day of the month, and the monthly tickets are about to expire. Those who still have monthly tickets can cast them.
