Naruto: I upgraded my bloodline limit using chakra.

Afterwards, Hinata Nami distributed the remaining takoyaki to her classmates.

Her classmates thought it tasted good and praised it highly, expressing their approval of her cooking skills.

Not long after, the homeroom teacher arrived in the classroom. His name was Watanabe Yu, a young man in his early twenties, tall and thin, with an ordinary appearance, the kind of person who would go unnoticed in a crowd, and with Chunin-level strength.

The next part was simply the students introducing themselves to each other.

More than 30 people finished their introductions in over an hour.

After the introduction, the homeroom teacher, Watanabe Yu, began his lesson.

The course was simple, mainly introducing the strength of the five great hidden villages in the ninja world.

There are five powerful nations in the Naruto world.

Each corresponds to one of the five powerful hidden villages.

Currently, Konohagakure is still the most powerful village.

This place has produced powerful ninjas such as Hashirama Senju, Madara Uchiha, Tobirama Senju, Hiruzen Sarutobi, and Minato Namikaze, and it also boasts the most powerful Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, making it a truly first-class hidden village.

Although Konoha lost the Fourth Hokage and Kushina, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, after the Nine-Tails incident, its overall strength still belongs to the top tier.

Second is Kumogakure, followed by Iwagakure, Kirigakure, and Sunagakure.

However, at this moment, Kumogakure has the Fourth Raikage and Killer Bee, who can freely control the power of the Eight-Tails, making its strength almost on par with Konohagakure.

The weakest village is Sunagakure, located in the desert.

Although the Third Shinobi World War has ended for some time and the shinobi world is in a relatively peaceful era, this is only a superficial peace, and undercurrents are surging beneath the surface.

Of the five great nations, only the Land of Fire has the most fertile land, with hills and plains everywhere, making it most suitable for growing crops. The land of the other four nations is very barren.

The Land of Wind, in particular, is located in the desert.

The ninjas were starving and cold, and could only obtain everything they wanted through war; peace was only temporary.

The morning classes ended quickly.

Genba ate the bento box he brought with him.

The afternoon session was a simple training session.

For example, there were lessons on chakra extraction, physical training, and taijutsu. Genba had a general grasp of these, but he still studied them diligently and discreetly.

The first day of school ended with the homeroom teacher, Watanabe Yu, announcing "get out of class dismissed."

Most of the students cheered and carried their schoolbags, heading home in twos and threes.

Just as Xuan Ye was about to pick up his schoolbag and leave, a cold voice sounded behind him.

"That Uchiha guy, the future Hokage challenges you!"

Chapter 5 Sarutobi Taro

"Challenge me?"

"What did I do to deserve this?"

Xuan Ye looked up in surprise and followed the sound. A chubby boy stood indifferently in the doorway, staring at him with a contemptuous look in his eyes.

The chubby boy wasn't tall, but he had a chubby face and a fierce expression that made him look very kind and lovable.

Xuan Ye frowned.

He has a very good memory.

I vaguely remember that this chubby boy's name was Sarutobi Taro.

He belongs to the same clan as the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Since Hiruzen Sarutobi became the Hokage of Konoha.

As a result, the status of the Sarutobi clan to which he belonged rose accordingly.

It has now developed into one of the top families in Konoha.

The clan has a large population.

There are quite a few experts there.

Under the influence of his family.

Sarutobi Taro had long harbored unfriendly feelings towards the Uchiha clan.

There is only one Uchiha in Class 3 of the first year.

So Genba was unlucky enough to become the one who was "favored".

"Sarutobi-kun, we're classmates, you can't do this!" Before Genba could speak, Hinata Nami, who hadn't left, rushed to Sarutobi Taro and pleaded with him.

"We're all classmates, and we're going to be good friends in the future, so we should get along well."

Sarutobi Taro turned his head away and snorted coldly, "This is between me and that Uchiha guy, it has nothing to do with your Hyuga clan."

"Get out of the way!"

He strutted around arrogantly, like a proud rooster.

"Why did you challenge me?" Xuan Ye asked slowly, puzzled. He had been keeping a low profile in class all day, so how did he end up offending the young master of the Sarutobi clan?

Do not understand.

Sarutobi Taro said calmly.

"The Uchiha possess the Sharingan and boast of being the strongest bloodline in Konoha. Today, I'll see if they truly live up to their reputation."

"bring it on!"

"Let me see the power of your Sharingan!"

After saying that.

Sarutobi Taro spread his legs apart, one in front of the other, striking an exaggerated and childish fighting pose.

"No, I didn't, don't talk nonsense." Xuan Ye immediately launched into a triple denial.

While the Sharingan is powerful, the Uchiha clan wouldn't arrogantly believe it's the strongest bloodline limit in Konoha. This would be disregarding the First Hokage's Wood Release bloodline limit.

"Excessive explanations always seem weak and ineffective!"

"You are destined to become a stepping stone on my path to becoming Hokage!"

"If you ever tell anyone that you were defeated by Lord Taro, you'll have something to be proud of!" Sarutobi Taro said in a wise and old-fashioned manner.

After a moment's hesitation, Xuan Ye replied, "How about this? The Sharingan is the worst bloodline limit. I admit defeat. Can you go back now?"

Genye was confident that he could defeat the chubby boy in one move, but the opponent was from the Sarutobi clan. He was most afraid that if he beat the younger one, the older one would come. If he really got into trouble, and Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up for the chubby boy, Fugaku wouldn't be able to protect him.

It's better to avoid trouble.

Let's find out the situation first.

Can't I just hide?

"What?" Sarutobi Taro staggered, his eyes wide with disbelief as he stared at Genba.

This involves the dignity of two families, yet the other party doesn't seem to care at all?

"Do you have any sense of family honor?" Sarutobi Taro asked sternly.

"Family honor? Can it feed you?" Xuan Ye asked calmly.

It was just a fight between two little kids, but it escalated into a matter of family honor.

Are you out of your mind?

"If you don't accept my challenge today, I won't let you leave. I'll keep you here!" Sarutobi Taro's massive body blocked the doorway, and he sneered.

Fortunately, it was just the three of them left, otherwise the scene would have been extremely awkward. Teenagers with delusions of grandeur are really hard to deal with!

I thought about it for a while.

Gen Ye's lips curled into a faint smile.

"Accepting your challenge is not out of the question!"

"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Sarutobi Taro's eyes lit up, and his opinion of Genba changed slightly. It seemed that the other party also had some guts!

"Let's have a showdown tonight at 10 PM in the open area behind Hokage Rock!"

"How could the mighty Uchiha be intimidated by your few words!" Xuan Ye snorted coldly, speaking with an imposing air!

"Alright, anyone who doesn't come is a pig!" Sarutobi Taro was overjoyed. Genba's subsequent performance made him think more highly of him.

"Alright, I'll definitely show you the power of the Sharingan tonight!" Genye indicated that he was absolutely ready to fight.

Tonight, let's have a decisive battle at the top of Hokage Rock!

Sarutobi Taro suddenly raised an eyebrow, realizing it was too late, and said, "Why is it 10 p.m.? Couldn't it be earlier?"

Xuan Ye replied, "I'll go back and rest for a while to recharge my energy so I can meet your challenge in the best possible condition!"

"it is good!"

Sarutobi Taro nodded with delight, agreeing with Genba's explanation.

Hyuga Nami, standing beside her, clenched her fists, her heart filled with trepidation and unease.

“If I tell the teachers, they will definitely be punished. No, I can’t tell them. If I do, they will hate me.”

"They are both from prestigious families in Konoha, so they should know their limits. I'll sneak out tonight and keep an eye on them. If anything goes wrong, I can help them immediately."

"Yes, that's settled then, Nami, you can do it!" Hinata Nami cheered herself on in her heart!

...

Carrying a schoolbag.

Xuan Ye slowly walked towards the clan's territory. The streets were bustling with people, and many villagers secretly pointed and whispered about him. Many even looked at him with disgust.

Gen-ye didn't care.

Upon returning to the Uchiha clan's territory, the atmosphere changed noticeably, with many people greeting him warmly.

The Uchiha clan may appear cold, but most members are actually very warm-hearted, often helping each other and are very united.

Except for Madara Uchiha and Obito Uchiha, those two lunatics.

Back at the courtyard residence.

Genba began preparing his dinner.

Some simple vegetarian dishes and inexpensive meats.

I took a nice, relaxing shower after dinner.

It's not even 9 o'clock yet.

Gen-ye was already in bed.

Young people should go to bed early and get up early.

"I think I've forgotten something?" Xuan Ye turned to the side, slightly startled, then comforted himself, "It's probably because I'm tired."

"go to bed!"

He closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.

...

11 pm.

The back mountain of the Hokage Rock.

"I've been waiting for an hour, why hasn't Uchiha Genba arrived yet? Is he afraid?"

"As expected, the Uchiha clan are all cowards!"

At this moment, Sarutobi Taro was standing on the mountaintop behind the Hokage Rock, clenching his teeth, his face full of anger, wanting to vent it.

"If he doesn't come by midnight, I'll deal with him when I get back tomorrow!"

Hinata Nami was hiding behind a rock in the distance. She had sneaked out under the cover of night. Because she was not a member of the main family, the control over her was not so strict.

"Why isn't Gen-ye here?"
