Chapter 161

"Master, what should I do?"

Damn it!

Hearing Luffy say this, the female teacher felt the world go black before her eyes.

It was already stated that this was shuriken throwing technique; what else could he do?

Naturally, he should pick up a shuriken and throw it at the target not far away!

Did that even need to be said?

But the female teacher certainly couldn't say that to a child.

The smile on her face remained incredibly stiff.

"Um, student Luffy, Itachi just need to use the shuriken Itachi prepared to hit that target."

As soon as he heard he had to use a shuriken, Luffy's expression immediately soured.

He had been distracted just a moment ago and hadn't heard what the teacher said.

By the time he came to his senses, he saw everyone looking at him.

After asking in a panic, he learned that the teacher wanted someone to go up and do a demonstration.

Once he heard that, Luffy wasn't panicked anymore.

Just a demonstration? I'm good at that!

So, Luffy decisively raised his hand.

But he hadn't expected the demonstration to be about shuriken.

Itachi have to know, he had always been learning taijutsu from Chenbao Army and Might Dai, practicing hand-to-hand combat.

Things like shuriken only hindered his movements, so Luffy hadn't trained in them at all!

Of course.

There was some basic training.

But compared to his taijutsu, it was far too lacking.

Seeing Luffy's expression sour, the female teacher's heart went cold.

Could it be that Itachi haven't practiced?

Then what are Itachi doing coming up here!

The female teacher felt her future was looking bleak.

At this moment.

Luffy reluctantly took three shuriken out of his ninja tool pouch.

Then, he looked at the target ten meters away with focused eyes.

For a child, this distance was just right.

However, seeing Luffy take out three shuriken directly, the female teacher felt even more that Luffy was being overly ambitious.

Itachi might not even be able to throw one properly, and yet Itachi take three?

So she spoke up.

"Student Luffy, if Itachi're demonstrating, just use one—"

*Whoosh—*

*Thud! Thud! Thud!*

The female teacher couldn't finish her sentence; her eyes widened in shock, and her neck turned as stiffly as a machine to look at the target not far away.

Three shuriken were stuck perfectly in the center of three targets, with extreme precision!

At this, the female teacher felt her bleak future suddenly become incredibly bright.

If Itachi knew how to use shuriken, Itachi should have said so earlier!

Why put on that reluctant expression?

Truly worthy of being the child of the idol Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye; at only three years old, he already has such superb shuriken throwing technique.

Even average genin might not be able to compare.

Only Luffy curled his lips and walked back with his head down.

"Wait, don't go yet."

The female teacher stopped Luffy, who was about to leave, and then said loudly to everyone.

"Everyone, let's applaud to thank student Luffy for his perfect demonstration."

"However, Itachi don't need to imitate student Luffy and force yourselves to throw three shuriken; as long as Itachi throw one onto the target, Itachi pass."

*Clap clap clap clap—*

Everyone came to their senses and began to give Luffy enthusiastic applause.

Eh?

Luffy looked up in confusion. My grades are so bad, why is everyone applauding for me?

Isn't this something everyone can do?

Among the children who had started training at home, Luffy's shuriken throwing technique was the worst.

This led Luffy to always think his shuriken throwing technique was very poor.

In reality, this was just because he lacked other objects of comparison.

With Luffy getting things off to a good start.

The smile on the female teacher's face suddenly became radiant.

"Alright, now everyone come up one by one; the teacher wants to see everyone's level."

"It doesn't matter if Itachi don't have confidence in yourself, as long as Itachi work hard; we still have a long time to learn."

"Come, student Itachi, let's start with Itachi."

Itachi Uchiha pulled himself together and stepped forward, then also took three shuriken from his ninja tool pouch.

When the female teacher saw this, her expression immediately stiffened again.

No, I said just one is enough!

Can Itachi not hear what I say?

One is enough!

A somewhat weary Itachi Uchiha stepped forward, looked at the target not far away that still had the shuriken stuck in it, and his eyes narrowed.

The process of the special training with his father yesterday surfaced in his mind one by one, turning into his strength.

His small hand gripped the slightly heavy shuriken, and then he threw it with a sudden flick.

*Whoosh—*

……

The female teacher's gaze shifted horizontally and then dropped.

She watched those three powerless shuriken fall to the ground.

Only then did she turn back to look at Itachi Uchiha.

Is this the legendary Uchiha clan?

Is this shuriken level too poor?

It didn't even reach half the distance?

No, Itachi is still young; it's normal for him to have no strength.

This is a normal situation!

The female teacher kept giving herself reasons to convince herself.

But the arrogant expressions of the Uchiha ninja she had dealt with in the past kept surfacing in her mind.

Once upon a time, when she was at the ninja academy, she had been harshly mocked by Uchiha students in her year regarding shuriken throwing technique.

She knew clearly that Itachi Uchiha's shuriken throwing technique was very powerful.

But she hadn't expected that Itachi Uchiha, as the son of the clan head, wouldn't even have the strength to throw a shuriken onto the target.

At this, the female teacher fell into deep doubt.

No.

Your child doesn't know characters, and there's no training effect.

Is it necessary to send him to the ninja academy so early?

What is the point of this?

To let other students mock your child?

Aren't Itachi sick in the head?

The female teacher couldn't figure it out no matter how she thought about it.

She couldn't understand Fugaku Uchiha's thinking at all.

"Teacher, student Itachi is too tired, let him rest for a while."

"Let him come back to training after he's rested."

Other students looked at the dejected Itachi Uchiha and began to whisper.

Only Senju Senju Niwu raised her hand high to help Itachi Uchiha out.

Only then did the female teacher notice the weariness on Itachi Uchiha's face.

How did I not notice that earlier?

Secretly criticizing her own poor eyesight, the female teacher nodded and said.

"Then I'll leave it to Itachi; Itachi take student Itachi to the infirmary to rest first."

Senju Senju Niwu nodded and stepped forward to take the disappointed Itachi Uchiha away.

Once he left.

The children's whispering voices immediately grew louder.

"I thought he was strong, but it turns out he doesn't even have any strength."

"Is this a person from the Uchiha family? I don't think they're all that great."

"Don't forget, student Itachi is only two years old; it's normal for him to have no strength."

"Why is he in the ninja academy at two years old? Wouldn't it be better to just stay home?"

The female teacher quickly clapped her hands to interrupt their discussion.

"Alright, let's continue with the training; don't talk about irrelevant things."

The teacher's authority made the children close their mouths, and one by one, they began to throw shuriken obediently.

Those who didn't have much confidence in themselves honestly threw one, and were happy just to get the shuriken onto the target.

Some children were very confident and wanted to throw three at once like Luffy.

But without exception, they all failed.

Either they missed, or their force was scattered, and they didn't even reach the target.

The test, which was originally intended to measure the children's usual level, ended up being completely unusable as a basis for evaluation because of Luffy's leading role.

Because except for Luffy, everyone failed!

The female teacher was full of helplessness and could only announce that they would start over.

This time, they must throw one; no more!

Only then did she get a test result that could confirm everyone's level.

Overall, the levels were still within the standard.

Out of more than fifty people in the class, only three did not reach the passing line.
