The Devil of Konoha: Starting as a Medical Ninja

However, she was overjoyed, as if it were New Year's Day. She never expected that her teammate would be Uchiha Sasuke. This was wonderful!

Sasuke Uchiha is currently the subject of much discussion due to his hairstyle. If she were to offer him some care and concern at this time, would it be possible to…

Thinking of this, Sakura Haruno, who was suffering from insomnia, grinned sheepishly. Unfortunately, her beautiful dream would not come true, and might even be shattered.

"What should I do? Obito, Rin, teacher..."

Kakashi's reason for insomnia is quite simple: this is a team that is 90% likely to be formed, and Kakashi is 100% the captain.

Only he understood the Sharingan, and only his strength allowed Hiruzen Sarutobi to stop worrying about their safety.

Kakashi could calmly deal with those teams he encountered before, but could he be as ruthless as he was with those people tomorrow?

This is a question, and even Kakashi himself doesn't know the answer.

The next morning.

Hongzhi headed straight for the Ninja Academy, which was still on holiday.

This is why graduates can be assigned to classes here; if school starts, there's simply no place for them to use.

"You're here so early, Kakashi-senpai."

When Hongzhi arrived at the ninja school's playground, he was immediately incredulous that the king of lateness had arrived so early.

Chapter 105 Anyway, he didn't have any parents to guide him...

"You're here pretty early too, are you nervous?"

Kakashi, who had come here early to find answers because of insomnia, looked at Hiroji and felt that something was amiss.

Why does this person seem a little different from the one I met at Konoha Hospital?

Meeting Kakashi's somewhat strange gaze, Koji did not choose to look away, but instead stared directly into his eyes.

Because his right eye is the Mangekyou Sharingan, Hiroji can only use the Transformation Jutsu to transform into his own appearance. Although it feels a bit strange, it is definitely not flawless.

If a shadow clone can thrive in a place like Konoha Hospital using the Transformation Technique, there's no reason why the real body would be immediately spotted by Kakashi, who isn't particularly familiar with the user.

"Is there a problem, Kakashi-senpai?"

Seeing the awkward silence, Hongzhi broke the tension by speaking up. Although he wouldn't be caught out, it was still a bit strange to be stared at like that by Kakashi.

It could even be dangerous; if Might Guy saw it, who knows if he'd kick it right away.

Although it was just a joke, Hongzhi still needs to be careful.

"No, that's not true. I'm just curious about something: how would eyes created by the regeneration technique differ from original eyes?"

Feeling a little embarrassed, Kakashi took a step back and then randomly asked a question.

“There are still some differences. The previous eye had been used for a long time, and now that it's a completely new eye, some special training needs to be started all over again. After all, I can only construct one eye, and I can't directly construct the traces of your use of the eye…”

Although he knew Kakashi had just made up an excuse, Hiroji still explained it to him in a serious manner, even though Hiroji felt it was completely meaningless.

However, that's just how his character is at Konoha Hospital, which Hiroji finds somewhat boring, but there's nothing he can do about it...

"So that's how it is."

Although it was a random thought, Kakashi was still a little embarrassed by Hiroji's serious answer. To prevent Hiroji from going on and on, Kakashi chose to end the conversation.

"As expected of Kakashi-senpai, he understood it so quickly."

Hongzhi maintained his smile as he spoke, secretly wishing he could use Lightning Blade to stab Kakashi a few times.

"Let's go inside. I plan to observe the three of them from the shadows for a while. Do you want to come with me, or would you like to sit in the office first?"

Feeling somewhat awkward, Kakashi took Hiroji directly into the Ninja Academy. While walking, he asked Hiroji about the matter, clearly showing that Kakashi did not consider Hiroji a burden.

Of course, Kakashi had his own purpose in saying that. He hoped that Hiroji would be with him so that he could see what this medical genius's overall strength was, aside from his medical ninjutsu.

We don't need to understand everything, but we should get a general idea so that it will be easier to assign him a position when carrying out tasks in the future.

"If possible, let's go and take a look with Kakashi-senpai."

Hiroji was still somewhat looking forward to seeing what would happen to the three of them while Kakashi was away.

Hiroji was very curious about what would happen when the bald Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki, who had been trained by Root, met.

"Then come with me."

Kakashi nodded without saying anything. With him there, even if Hiroji's concealment skills were really not good, he wouldn't be directly exposed to everyone's eyes.

"Ok."

Hongzhi followed Kakashi and hid in a grove of trees at the Ninja Academy. The small training ground of the Ninja Academy was the assembly point, and this place was just right for a clear view of the assembly location.

By observing the reactions before the gathering, Kakashi can determine some basic things, and then he might know the final answer.

As Kakashi thought this, he subconsciously looked in the direction of Hiroji. To his surprise, Hiroji, who was supposed to be hiding there, had disappeared without a trace. The most important thing was that Kakashi could not find any trace of him hiding.

"What's going on!?"

Kakashi couldn't help but sigh, but no one answered his question because the first figure appeared on the playground in the distance.

Without a doubt, the first person to arrive here was Uchiha Bald, no, it was Uchiha Sasuke. Even becoming bald wouldn't affect Uchiha Sasuke's principle of always being one step ahead.

Of course, it's also possible that he doesn't want to fall behind; only by always staying ahead can he possibly defeat that guy and complete his revenge.

Upon seeing Sasuke Uchiha arrive, Kakashi no longer cared about finding Hiroji, since Hiroji was merely someone temporarily learning alongside Sasuke.

As for Uchiha Sasuke and the others, they were the three who had the opportunity to become his students, and Kakashi was very clear about which was more important.

It's not that he would have any different ideas about this, but there are priorities. It's more reasonable to complete the established goal than to satisfy his curiosity to find traces of Hongzhi.

When Uchiha Sasuke arrived at the agreed location, he felt something was strange. Why was no one there? Logically, shouldn't his teacher be waiting here beforehand?

However, Sasuke Uchiha didn't care about this. Instead, he found a place to sit down and waited patiently.

Kakashi felt somewhat gratified upon seeing this scene. Although he hadn't seen Sasuke interact with others or how he treated them, Sasuke hadn't yet displayed the arrogant and haughty demeanor typical of the Uchiha clan.

This is quite rare. Most young people in the Uchiha clan are arrogant, and while Sasuke's behavior at this moment cannot be called humble, it certainly has nothing to do with arrogance.

Next up is Sakura Haruno. In Kakashi's eyes, although she is not a genius, she is still quite talented.

Without some talent, it would be impossible to get into Team 7, even if you were just a reserve. Although it is not explicitly stated how special Team 7 is, its special characteristics have been established since the first Team 7 was formed.

"Sasuke-kun!"

While Kakashi was still thinking, Sakura Haruno suddenly moved up to Sasuke Uchiha, which caught Kakashi off guard.

Hey, hey, hey, you don't even bother to hide your relationship?

If the current situation surprised Kakashi, then Sakura's next words turned his face black.

With the appointed time fast approaching and Naruto still not appearing, Sasuke Uchiha kept glancing at the door to the side.

Sasuke Uchiha would never have paid attention to Naruto Uzumaki before, but now that they're in the same class, he doesn't want this to cause any other problems.

"Just ignore that guy. He didn't have any parents to teach him anything, so how could he possibly know that being punctual is a matter of good manners?!"

Seemingly because Sasuke ignored her existence and cared about Naruto, Sakura Haruno said nonchalantly, the first part of which she had heard from the adults, and the latter part she had added at random.

Sasuke Uchiha's gaze shifted to Sakura Haruno for the second time. The first time was to confirm who had come here, and the second time was now.

While Sakura Haruno was still overjoyed at finally getting Sasuke Uchiha's attention, she noticed that Sasuke's gaze didn't seem to be what she had imagined.

Chapter 106 Dancing in the Minefield - Sakura Haruno

"Shut up!"

Uchiha Sasuke glared fiercely at Haruno Sakura. He really didn't expect that the guy, who usually had pretty good grades, would say such a thing.

"Do you think you understand me? Actually, you don't understand anything..."

Sasuke Uchiha's voice gradually fell silent from its initial anger. Perhaps he was truly provoked to discuss such matters with such an idiot.

Sakura Haruno still maintained her original expression of disgust and aversion, but Sasuke Uchiha's words made her realize that she was truly being disliked and hated this time.

Sasuke Uchiha got up and tried to get as far away from Sakura Haruno as possible. If it weren't for the fact that they had to meet here, he would have gotten away from this idiot a long time ago.

'You're really brave. Strictly speaking, there are three orphans in Class 7...'

Hongzhi almost burst out laughing when he saw Haruno Sakura standing there, clueless about what she had done wrong. This girl had stepped on a landmine with perfect precision.

Moreover, they were dancing wildly in the minefield. Uchiha Sasuke was an orphan, Uzumaki Naruto was an orphan, and Hatake Kakashi was also an orphan in a certain sense.

Furthermore, Kakashi Hatake was Minato Namikaze's student and received a lot of care from Minato and Kushina Uzumaki. Now, if you say Naruto is ill-mannered, it's like a bolt from the blue for Kakashi.

Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki sacrificed their lives to protect Konoha, and now someone is actually jumping out to say that Naruto Uzumaki has no manners.

If everyone had known from the beginning that Naruto Uzumaki was the son of the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, and Kushina Uzumaki, then Sakura Haruno would probably have received the first slap from her parents after saying such a thing.

'Tsk tsk tsk... What a sad story.'

Thinking about what Sakura Haruno would encounter next, Hiroji shook his head helplessly. He was certain that in the future, apart from Naruto Uzumaki, who was unaware of what had happened, Sasuke Uchiha and Kakashi Uchiha would treat Sakura Haruno with a kind of "dislike".

Whether Sakura Haruno can have her glasses removed depends on her performance next. Of course, Sakura Haruno might also be kicked out, but that possibility is not very high.

Unless Sakura Haruno dies in battle, Hiruzen Sarutobi will not agree.

However, Sakura Haruno's words made Hiroji feel much more at ease, at least at certain times, Hiroji could choose to ignore her injuries.

As for the reason, it's because the body that was transported here was originally an orphan...

Sakura Haruno, who dances in a minefield, truly lives up to her name.

'how so?!'

Kakashi, standing to the side, also felt somewhat incredulous. Initially, when he saw Uchiha Sasuke glancing towards the door from time to time, Kakashi felt somewhat relieved.

Regardless of why Sasuke Uchiha was looking in that direction, it also means that Sasuke Uchiha is capable of teamwork in some way.

But after hearing Sakura Haruno's words, Kakashi's newly ignited flame was instantly frozen. He even began to doubt the Third Hokage's judgment in choosing people. Did this guy even deserve to be in Team 7?

This is a problem. Putting aside ninja etiquette, if Sakura Haruno were from another ninja village, Kakashi would have already shown her what it means to be pierced through the heart by Lightning Blade.

Knowing that the formation of Team 7 was a must, Kakashi had some understanding of the current members.

Needless to say, Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki were both orphans. Even without knowing their backgrounds, Kakashi knew they were both orphans. What surprised Kakashi was that Konoha's strongest medical ninja, Hiroji, was also an orphan.

In this very atmosphere, Hiroji overheard Sakura Haruno's words, and putting himself aside, Sakura Haruno had offended three people.

Needless to say, Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki were the reason Team 7 was formed.
