Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan

Then a guy wearing sunglasses, a cloak, and a trench coat appeared in broad daylight, silently extended his hand to Shikamaru, and asked, "Do you want me to help you up?"

Shikamaru looked at the person and asked in confusion, "Which class are you in? Is there someone like you in our class? I don't remember you."

Shino paused for a moment, then withdrew his outstretched hand and silently walked to his seat in the last row.

Making friends... failed.

Naruto and Sasuke had just entered the classroom.

The girls who were chatting noisily were immediately drawn to the scene.

"Sa...it's Sasuke!"

"Sasuke is so handsome..."

"He looks handsome even when he frowns!"

"Even his sneer is cool!"

"I really want to go up and strike up a conversation..."

……

Under the watchful eyes of others, Naruto said smugly, "Looks like we're getting a lot of attention today! Very good..."

However, before Erzhuzi could reply, discontent rang out in the classroom.

"Hey you blondie over there, can you move aside a bit? You're blocking our Sasuke!"

"Naruto, get out of the way!"

"Yellow-haired guy, stay away from Sasuke..."

……

Amidst the rising and falling shouts, Naruto pursed his lips, found a seat, and Sasuke naturally sat down next to him.

"So they're not welcoming you."

Naruto glanced at Sasuke, who looked rather smug, and held out his hand, saying, "It's just being popular with girls. Mom and Aunt Mikoto both said that being number one in grades is what's truly amazing! What's this?!"

Sasuke nodded and replied, "Brother Yun is coming back for the practical training this afternoon, so let's have a match then."

Naruto stretched out his hand and clenched it into a fist: "Let's have a match then. Even though you're my best friend, I won't lose to you."

No sooner had he finished speaking than a figure suddenly appeared, shoving Naruto aside and sending him sprawling to the ground.

"Um... Sasuke-kun, did you have a good holiday? Next holiday... we..."

A short-haired girl with cherry blossom-colored hair was blushing and wanted to say something, but was too shy to speak.

Just as he was about to muster his courage, Erzhuzi already showed an impatient expression.

"Broad forehead! What are you trying to do?! Trying to get there first?"

An angry voice rang out, and Sakura was immediately pushed aside by her classmates, falling to the ground alongside Naruto, looking at each other in disbelief.

By this time, the noisy classroom had turned into a bustling marketplace, with not a single quiet spot remaining.

only……

"Naruto... kun... are you... alright?"

Hinata, blushing, reached out to pull Naruto, but seemed too shy to do so.

However, Naruto was quite generous. He reached out and took Hinata's hand, then used the leverage to stand up.

"It's alright, Hinata, it's just that Sasuke is too popular. Haha..."

Naruto, who was scratching his head nonchalantly, didn't notice that Hinata's face was flushed red and she was on the verge of fainting.

"Ok?"

"Are you shy again? Do you need me to go to the infirmary with you?"

As Naruto drew closer, Hinata's already red face turned even redder, and she promptly fainted.

Just then, Karin, who had just arrived at the classroom door, witnessed this scene.

"Naruto! Have you gotten into trouble again? I'm going to tell Aunt Kushina!"

"No! Let me explain!"

Karin walked over to look at Hinata who had fainted, thought for a moment, then helped her up and walked to the last row. Using the angle difference, she put her arm into Hinata's mouth.

I don't know if fainting from embarrassment would help.

Although his younger brother, who was from the same clan, often caused trouble, he couldn't ignore him because of how good Aunt Kushina had been to him.

Ugh... This is so frustrating!

……

"I advise you not to sit in this seat."

"Oh? Why?"

"Although your smile is fake, you might die at any moment if you sit here."

After thinking for a moment, Sai gave an irrelevant answer: "Why does my smile seem fake? I've already tried my best."

At this moment, Shino Aburame walked over, looked at Sai, and said, "Torine delayed his enrollment for two years for some reasons, which is why he can't be approached. So... I'm sorry."

Sai was taken aback for a moment, then asked, "Why are you apologizing? I just wanted to ask why my smile looked fake. Do you know that?"

Sai scratched his head in distress: "My brother has been receiving treatment in the hospital, and he also said that my smile isn't genuine enough. So how can I smile in a way that is truly sincere?"

Despite their seemingly nonsensical conversation, all three appeared to be deep in thought.

After failing to get an answer, Sai left the place dejectedly.

Upon seeing this, Zhi sighed, "Another failure."

Qu Gen, who was standing to the side, said indifferently, "That guy just now seemed a bit special."

Shino looked at his clansman and replied, "It's truly remarkable that you could ask such a question; I don't think I need to repeat that, do I?"

Qu Gen shook his head slightly and said nothing more. After all, who could know what emotions were going on?

……

At that moment, the classroom door was pushed open.

Iruka, who had just walked in, was smiling and thought the students were quite happy to start school, and the atmosphere was not bad.

But when he saw the scene in the classroom, his smile froze.

The tables, chairs, and benches were all overturned and in disarray, and the shouts and curses were like those in a vegetable market.

Shikamaru, Choji, and the others were wrestling together, while the girls surrounding Sasuke had started pulling each other's hair and vying for the center position.

Hinata, who had just woken up at the back of the classroom, fainted again because Naruto approached...

Karin, from the Uzumaki clan, completely lost her temper and started beating Naruto mercilessly.

"Hello, classmates..."

He greeted her in an increasingly low voice, and then the veins on Iruka's temples began to bulge.

Even Buddha would get angry if this were done!

"Quiet!!!"

On the first day after the holiday, a roar that could reach the Hokage Building echoed throughout the entire ninja academy.

Even Minato, who was overwhelmed with dealing with the daimyo's urgent messages, called Shikaku over to ask him about it.

……

Ten minutes later, the classroom finally returned to calm.

Having suppressed his anger, Iruka now calmly began to earnestly persuade everyone on the podium.

However, whispers had already begun among the students below.

"Ino, why didn't you help me just now?"

Ino smiled at Sakura with her head down: "Love is something you have to fight for yourself. If a flower bud like Sakura doesn't bloom, then there's no point in it."

Sakura was taken aback by these words, then raised her fist to encourage herself: "Yes, Ino is right, love is something you have to fight for yourself."

As she spoke, Sakura looked at Ino and asked suspiciously, "Sasuke is so popular, doesn't Ino like Sasuke?"

Ino glanced at Sasuke in the front row: "He's just a handsome, arrogant little boy. Being handsome isn't everything!"

These words made Sakura pout: "You're not allowed to say bad things about Sasuke."

Ino reached out and poked Sakura's waist: "We haven't officially started dating yet, and it's not just me who doesn't like Sasuke."

As they spoke, the two of them raised their eyes, preparing to look at Hinata in the back row.

However, when they looked up, they suddenly found that the shadows had been hanging over them before, and there was no sound all around.

"You guys... seem to be having a good chat..."

A sinister voice rang out, followed by Iruka's torrential rambling.

The two were then invited out of the classroom.

After making an example of someone, the classroom finally started to resemble a classroom setting.

Iruka finally breathed a sigh of relief. In any case, he couldn't greet Lord Yun in this state that afternoon.

"Open the book to page..."

……

The first class of the morning ended quickly, and the two girls who were being punished by standing at the door became the subject of teasing.

Soon after, led by the enraged Ino, the two girls began a battle of two against many.

As for Iruka, who had just returned to his office, it was his turn to take the stage again in the blink of an eye.

After all that commotion, the second period of the morning ended, and Iruka, who was already half-dead from the ordeal, was utterly exhausted.

On the rooftop...

Naruto, Shikamaru, Sasuke, and Choji ate their bento boxes while discussing their afternoon sparring session.
