Chapter 168
Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye nodded and said.
"So Itachi intend to let them graduate early?"
The female teacher was stunned.
Senju Senju Senju Xingye-kun is not only handsome, but can he also read minds?
How did he know what I was going to say?
"Cough cough."
The male teacher saw this and hurriedly took over the conversation.
"Yes, Lord Senju, with the aptitude of your two children, continuing to stay at the ninja academy is just a meaningless waste of time."
"So, we united the opinions of all the teachers, and then reported this matter to Lord Hokage, but Lord Hokage said this matter needs Itachi to decide, what do Itachi think……"
Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye nodded.
"Then let them graduate."
Didn't he let the children go to school at this time just to let them break the age of the fastest ninja academy graduation?
Since the goal had been achieved, he naturally didn't need to be coy here.
So.
Senju Senju Niwu and Luffy had only been at the ninja academy for less than ten days, and they successfully graduated.
It could be called the youngest and shortest-time graduates since the establishment of the ninja academy.
"Am I a genin from now on? Old man?"
Luffy didn't know who he learned the words from, speaking as freely as a pirate.
He fiddled with the forehead protector in his hand, his eyes full of curiosity.
"Where did Itachi learn this title from?"
Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye rubbed Luffy's little head helplessly, and then said.
"That's right, from now on Itachi are a genin of the Hidden Leaf."
"In two days, we will equip Itachi with a jonin to take Itachi to familiarize yourself with the work content."
"Now just go home and stay honestly."
Senju Senju Niwu solemnly put away the forehead protector, and then asked curiously.
"Father, which jonin is our team leader?"
"Temporarily confidential, Itachi'll know tomorrow."
Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye smiled lightly, maintaining a sense of mystery.
This immediately raised the expectations of the two little guys.
And it wasn't just the jonin team leader, there was also another companion who didn't know who it was.
A ninja squad is a team of three!
Kurenai Yuhi’s mood was very subtle.
Being suddenly transferred from her original team to a mysterious new one left her extremely dissatisfied.
After all, her previous teammates were people she had coordinated with for years.
Although she knew that there were no teammates who could fight side-by-side forever, and that as their strength grew, they would eventually become team leaders to guide Konoha’s newcomers.
However, she hadn't expected this to happen so soon!
The key point was that she wasn't the one leading the team!
This was the very reason for Kurenai Yuhi’s extreme dissatisfaction.
At exactly fifteen years old this year, Kurenai Yuhi was already somewhat famous among Konoha ninja thanks to the genjutsu passed down by her father.
After all, genjutsu-using ninja were rare, and by catching enemies off guard, one could instantly turn the tide of battle by controlling key targets.
Therefore, Kurenai Yuhi was quite confident in herself.
And yet.
After being transferred, she was to become a member of another newly formed squad?
And it consisted of two newly graduated genin?
Most importantly, she wasn't even the team leader!
Filled with dissatisfaction, Kurenai Yuhi waited at the assembly point with a sour face.
She wanted to see just whose young master or young lady required her to come and act as their bodyguard.
Then, she saw a cute girl and a boy who looked extremely mischievous at first glance.
"Excuse me, are Itachi our Jonin leader?"
The girl asked quite politely.
Her voice was gentle and pleasant; Kurenai Yuhi felt her heart melt.
But the question in the girl's words made her react immediately.
Something was wrong!
"Did Itachi find the wrong person, little sister?"
"I'm not here to play house with Itachi."
Kurenai Yuhi leaned over, resting her hands on her knees, and said kindly.
Luffy picked his nose and said with a look of disdain.
"Itachi can tell by her age that she isn't it. Our team leader must be someone very strong, otherwise, how could Dad be at ease?"
"Luffy, Itachi are so impolite. Apologize to this big sister right now."
Niu frowned slightly and slapped Luffy on the back of his head.
The force was so great it nearly knocked Luffy’s eyes out of their sockets.
Even so, Luffy’s eyes bulged high out of his sockets, looking quite frightening, yet also comical.
At the very least, Kurenai Yuhi found the scene quite funny.
But it seemed these two children weren't joking?
Her gaze fell on Niu.
The little girl looked delicate, but her strength was not small.
Although it hadn't hit her, seeing the effect of the blow on Luffy, she knew the slap definitely wasn't light.
It was certainly not strength that a little girl of that age should possess.
Could these two children really be my new teammates?
This rather absurd thought popped into Kurenai Yuhi’s mind.
"Wait, I want to ask, are Itachi two newly graduated genin?"
Kurenai Yuhi asked cautiously.
She really didn't want to accept this situation.
Was she really here to be a nanny for the children of the high-ranking officials?
This was not the ninja life she had envisioned!
Luffy said, puffing out his chest and raising his head.
"We graduated yesterday! Dad said we broke the record for graduation in the ninja world!"
"We are super strong!"
Of course Itachi're strong with a father like that!
Kurenai Yuhi rolled her eyes, not thinking too deeply, assuming the little boy's father was part of the ruling faction among the village's high-ranking officials.
"Big sister, are Itachi really not our Jonin leader?"
Niu was still somewhat curious.
This was clearly the agreed-upon location, and she had only seen Kurenai Yuhi.
It was impossible for a second person to pop out and claim to be their Jonin leader.
"Little sister, I would like to be, but unfortunately I am not a Jonin yet, even though I definitely will be in the future."
"But, how did Itachi find this place?"
Kurenai Yuhi was still making a desperate last stand.
