"Leave the village and family affairs to your elder brother, who is an adult."

Shisui hummed, seemingly enjoying the moment, but no one knew what he was thinking.

"Qing Shui-Jun!"

A loud and energetic greeting broke into the harmonious scene between the Uchiha brothers.

Matt Kai, wearing his signature green bodysuit, his watermelon-shaped head covered in sweat, grinned and gave Qing Shui a thumbs-up, showing off his gleaming white teeth.

"Youth begins to burn from the moment we wake up! Qingshui-kun, let's have a thrilling handstand race, a magnificent warm-up for the exams later!"

Seeing Might Guy's bizarre pose with his head on the ground and his buttocks in the sky, Shisui showed a slightly embarrassed expression.

As a genius of the Uchiha clan, although he was very adaptable, he was still quite reserved at heart.

This kind of death-inducing training method was something Shisui truly couldn't accept...

But Qing Shui smiled gently and slowly gave Might Guy a thumbs up: "Guy, you always work so hard."

"I believe you will definitely become an outstanding taijutsu ninja."

"Thank you for your continued support, Aoshui-kun!" Might Guy burst into tears, rushed to Aoshui's side, and shouted loudly:

"Aoshui-kun, do your best on today's graduation exam! Let's become excellent ninjas together!"

"Alright, with Aoshizu-kun's encouragement, let's add another fifty laps to tonight's training. If we don't finish, I'll challenge Kakashi!"

Might Guy roared and instantly accelerated, running upside down as if no one else was around.

"This guy…"

Shisui watched Might Guy's departing figure, narrowing his eyes in dissatisfaction: "What did he mean? Working together to become excellent ninjas? Is he mocking me for not graduating yet?"

Qing Shui smiled slightly, flicked Zhi Shui's forehead, and looked at his brother who was in pain, saying leisurely, "Don't be so sensitive, Might Guy is just worried about me."

"After all, I am indeed an Uchiha who couldn't graduate at the age of eleven, not a genius like you, Shisui."

In this era where the shadow of war had not yet dissipated, the graduation system of the Ninja Academy was exceptionally flexible.

Anyone can apply to graduate early as long as they are confident in their abilities; it's not the same system as when Naruto's character graduated at the age of twelve.

To date, the record for the youngest graduation age is held by Kakashi, who entered the academy at the age of five, graduated at the age of six, and became a Chunin at the age of seven. He is known as the strongest genius of this generation in Konoha.

This is why, at the age of six, Shisui wanted to graduate and become a Chunin in one go, in order to attract the attention of the village and clan by surpassing Kakashi.

Kakashi Hatake, son of Sakumo Hatake, is now Konoha's undisputed star and a celebrity in the village.

"Stop joking, brother..."

Shisui shook his head awkwardly: "Compared to you, what kind of genius am I?"

"As long as you stop hiding your strength, it's not impossible for you to be promoted to Jonin..."

Qing Shui chuckled but didn't respond.

Although he was ready to demonstrate his strength, he had no intention of becoming a Jonin, and didn't even want to graduate...

Today, Qingshui plans to use the exam as an opportunity to bind Obito Uchiha and Might Guy together.

As long as these two precious "leeks" (a metaphor for easily exploited individuals) haven't graduated, Qingshui will stay with them at the Ninja Academy, repeatedly extracting their value...

As they spoke, Qingshui and Shisui arrived at the Ninja Academy and came to the spacious training ground.

Qing Shui glanced at it and a slight smile curled at the corners of his lips: "Pretty lucky, huh..."

Don't know why.

Kakashi Hatake, who had already been promoted to Chunin, stood among the teaching staff, dressed in an examiner's uniform, looking at the book in his hands as if no one else was around.

Chapter 7: Hiruzen Sarutobi's popularity at the Ninja Academy made Tobirama quite relieved.

Heart

"Hey! You smug Kakashi, you've seen me, haven't you? Stop trying to look cool!"

Just as Aokiji's gaze fell upon Kakashi, Obito Uchiha suddenly jumped up and shouted, attracting everyone's attention. He pointed at Kakashi and yelled:

"Today, I, Obito, will prove to you that I am the true genius!"

“Boring…” Kakashi merely glanced at Obito before turning back to the book in his hands.

Qing Shui watched this scene and nodded slightly.

Just as he had expected, Kakashi was genuinely not very interested in Obito at this moment.

Kakashi entered school at the age of five and graduated at the age of six, becoming a Chunin. Even if a proud genius is lonely, he will not be swayed by a hot-blooded fool in less than a year.

"Will the lost young genius only actively seek companions in his loneliness after Hatake Sakumo dies...?" Aozumi seemed to have found the origin of this bond.

"Obito, don't bother Kakashi... He seems to be our final exam examiner..." Nohara Rin gently tugged at Obito, who was being ignored and seemed a little embarrassed, and whispered, pulling him aside.

"Kakashi, my destined rival!" Following Obito, Might Guy made a dazzling entrance, shouting to Kakashi with an even louder voice and more exaggerated posture:

"I'll be graduating this year, Kakashi, let's have a showdown!"

Kakashi raised his head again, squinted his eyes, and examined Might Guy's already well-developed muscles, then nodded slightly.

"Hey! Kakashi, why are you only nodding to this taijutsu monster? What do you mean by that?!" Obito shouted again upon seeing this.

Rin Nohara stood behind Obito with a helpless expression and sighed.

The scene quickly descended into chaos, with discussions erupting everywhere.

"Hey, isn't that Kakashi Hatake? Why is he here...?"

"I don't know, but this guy is wearing an examiner's uniform. Could he be back to be a teacher?"

"Sigh, no wonder he's a genius who graduated at six. We're still worrying about the final exams, and this guy is a formidable Chunin."

Seeing this, Asuma Sarutobi, standing beside Kurenai Yuhi, first sighed, then commented with a disdainful and insightful tone:

"Kakashi's back. It must have been the old man's doing. He just wants to use his current achievements to motivate others. What a boring and simplistic trick..."

After speaking, Asuma glanced subtly at Kurenai Yuhi, hoping to hear his beloved's reaction to his sharp criticism.

Such mature and insightful words must make Hong look at him in a new light, right?

Asuma thought to himself, keeping a straight face and adopting a pretentious, profound posture.

But contrary to his expectations, Kurenai Yuhi's eyes lit up as she looked at Asuma with delight: "So this was the Third Hokage's arrangement? As expected of the Hokage, he managed to make the scene so lively all at once..."

"When Kakashi-kun doesn't show up, everyone seems a bit listless..."

Asuma's expression froze, his eyes involuntarily shifting away, and he scoffed with extreme displeasure.

This scene was also witnessed by Qing Shui, who smiled and said to the white-haired Hokage inside him, "How is it, Tobirama... This is the ninja academy you founded. Those here are the future of Konoha."

"See that? This is the son of the third generation; he's quite the rebellious youth..."

"Don't call me Tobirama, kid. I'm older than your great-grandfather!" Tobirama Senju grumbled, refusing Aozumi's overly familiar address, but his curious expression betrayed his true feelings.

He gazed greedily at the sight of the ninja academy.

As the Second Hokage and the first headmaster of the Ninja Academy, Tobirama Senju had a special affection for the children of Konoha.

During the early days of Konoha, the most memorable quote was spoken by Hashirama Senju: "The purpose of establishing this village is to ensure that our children are born in peace and grow up freely until they can enjoy fine wine."

Scanning the energetic ninja academy students, Tobirama Senju's gaze softened yet hardened as he thought, "It seems the monkey and Danzo have done a good job..."

"The children were mostly happy and relaxed, and they showed genuine respect for the monkey when they heard about him. Their unity shows that even with the appearance of this little monster, Uchiha Aokiji, the Uchiha clan will not be able to take Konoha!"

"Very good, very good!"

Aoshui watched with a smile as Tobirama Senju's expression changed.

Before Sakumo Hatake was persecuted, before Orochimaru betrayed the village, and before Madara Uchiha attacked Obito, Konoha was indeed as solid as an iron plate, unshakeable.

Despite its seemingly powerful nature, Konoha is destined to experience internal strife in the future.

Orochimaru is likely colluding with Danzo Shimura, which has attracted the attention of the Third Hokage.

Sakumo Hatake's prestige has already caused substantial damage to the Hokage master-disciple system, making the Konoha leadership wary of him.

Perhaps at this moment, Madara Uchiha was also closely monitoring the scene through White Zetsu, and had locked onto Obito.

The gears of fate have already begun to turn, but the clattering sound that signifies collapse has yet to be heard.

"Quiet down, you noisy brats! I hope your performance later will be as attention-grabbing as your voices!!" The person in charge of this final exam, Konoha's senior Chunin, Umino Ikkaku, clapped his hands forcefully, signaling the students to shut up.

"I hereby declare the final exams for this semester to officially begin from this moment!"

"The first subject is a practical combat exercise! This time, we will use a lottery system throughout. Starting with the first student drawn, the competition will be conducted in the form of a challenge match. If a student can win three consecutive matches, they will receive a perfect score!"

Umino Ikkaku paused, coughed lightly in a mysterious tone, and said in a deep voice, "Furthermore, students who get full marks can apply for a practical graduation assessment on the spot from the examiner, Chunin Hatake, who was sent by the Third Hokage."

"If you perform well, Chunin Hatake will report you, and then you'll have a chance to get the Third Hokage's attention!"

Umino Ichikaku's words had barely faded.

The entire ninja academy had become a boiling ocean, the atmosphere was incredibly enthusiastic, and many students looked at Kakashi with eyes full of fighting spirit.

That's a third-generation master!

If I get his attention, wouldn't I have a chance to become Hokage in the future?

Qing Shui's expression remained unchanged, but the corner of his mouth still twitched uncontrollably.

This feels so familiar, like a star player meeting with fans, where the best player can challenge them to a one-on-one match...

He's been upgraded again; his one-on-one performance is good, so he can try out for the Konoha team and get the attention of Manager Hiruzen.

"Alright, tell me, are you ready?" Umino Ikkaku shouted, his hands pressing on the lottery box, his gaze slowly sweeping over every ninja academy student present.

"Ready!" The unified shouts echoed across the field.

But what no one noticed was the brief moment when Umino Ikkaku's gaze met Aomizu's.

Behind the blue-black contact lenses, the Sharingan with its two tomoe marks began to rotate silently…
