A little bit more help please!! Let’s try and push this fic to top 10 in popularity. Hope you guys enjoy this Chapter!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thank you Jibreel Kamal and balmung1989 for your support! on patreon!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>----------------------------------\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A muffled thud echoed across the training ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once again, Sasuke tumbled from the tree, landing hard on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa gave a subtle nod of approval.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite being bruised and battered, Sasuke didn’t utter a single complaint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To earn praise from his father and his older brother, he was willing to push himself to the brink.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, after an entire class period, he still couldn’t climb all the way to the top of the tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sasuke,\" Kitazawa finally said, halting him, \"time’s up for today. You’ll practice again tomorrow.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kitazawa-sensei, you can go back without me,\" Sasuke shot back, stubbornness flashing in his dark eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haste makes waste,\" Kitazawa countered, shaking his head. \"Training goes best when you balance effort and rest.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke blinked, taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t fully understand what Kitazawa meant—but somehow, it sounded wise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And after witnessing Kitazawa’s incredible Great Fireball earlier, he couldn’t bring himself to argue further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment’s hesitation, he gave a reluctant nod.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When you get home, make sure you find a medical ninja to look at those injuries,\" Kitazawa reminded him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay... Thank you, Kitazawa-sensei.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke limped away toward the village gates, determination still burning in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa turned back toward the training ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By now, most students had gone home. Only Naruto and Hinata still remained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kitazawa-sensei!\" Naruto yelled, sprinting over. \"I hit it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa raised an eyebrow. \"Hit what?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The bullseye!\" Naruto cried, beaming with pride.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Congratulations,\" Kitazawa said after a pause. \"But don’t let it go to your head. This is just the beginning.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mm!\" Naruto nodded so hard his blonde spikes bounced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"See you tomorrow,\" Kitazawa said, patting him on the shoulder. \"In our next practical class, we’ll be using moving targets.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll train super hard!\" Naruto promised, waving enthusiastically before dashing off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa then turned to Hinata.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hinata,\" he asked gently, \"are you feeling nervous?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A little...\" Hinata murmured, but as she met his warm smile, most of her anxiety melted away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s go,\" Kitazawa said, holding out his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hinata hesitated for a split second, then slipped her small hand into his. The warmth of his touch sent a faint blush rising into her cheeks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Together, they left the Academy and arrived at their destination—a small grove nestled between towering trees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hinata’s breath caught as she recognized the place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the same grove where those three troublesome boys had cornered her before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only difference was the weather: back then, it had been snowing heavily. Today, the sky was clear and blue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They’re not here yet. Let’s set up an ambush,\" Kitazawa said thoughtfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hinata looked up at him, confusion in her pale eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After all, I am your sensei,\" Kitazawa said, clearing his throat. \"And it’s a sensei’s job to educate students—even the troublesome ones.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hinata blinked rapidly, still not quite following.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re completely clueless, aren’t you?\" Kitazawa teased, gently pinching her soft cheek.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hinata’s face turned pinker, her fair skin blooming like a cherry blossom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hinata,\" Kitazawa said, his tone growing serious, \"remember one thing: to overcome fear, you have to face it head-on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hinata pressed her lips together, determination flickering in her lavender eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when she blinked again, Kitazawa was gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Panic tightened her chest as she suddenly felt alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking a deep breath, she turned—and saw three familiar figures approaching through the trees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She really showed up by herself?\" Toranosuke exclaimed, glancing around suspiciously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Does she seriously think she can take all three of us?\" The boy on his left yelled. \"Big brother, she’s looking down on us!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey!\" Toranosuke stepped forward, his voice loud and brash. \"What’s your deal, huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hinata froze where she stood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Kitazawa had given her courage, there was no way she could completely transform her timid nature in just two days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment fear gripped her, Hinata’s mind went utterly blank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Move, Hinata!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She screamed at herself internally, but her body felt drained of all strength, rooted to the spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m talking to you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Toranosuke snapped, irritation sharpening his voice. \"Are you mute or something?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hinata flinched, trembling as she instinctively took a step backward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In her heart, she silently prayed:Kitazawa-sensei... Please save me!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’ve just managed to piss off a lion!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Toranosuke finally lost his patience. He lunged forward, reaching out to grab Hinata—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—when a violent gust of wind suddenly roared through the clearing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hinata’s hair whipped upward as the force slammed into her. She threw her hands up to hold it down, eyes squeezing shut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she opened them again, she gasped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That powerful wind had blasted all three boys off their feet, hurling them into the trunks of three separate trees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahhh!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Toranosuke let out a shriek, clutching his ribs as if his entire body had shattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other two boys lay sprawled on the ground, faces pale with shock and pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the shadows, Kitazawa stepped out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That fierce wind just now had been his doing—a Wind Release: Great Breakthrough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though only a C-rank jutsu, the power of Wind Release: Great Breakthrough depended entirely on how much chakra was poured into it. In the original story, Orochimaru had used it to blow down an entire stretch of forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"W-Who... who are you?\" Toranosuke stammered, sweat trickling down his forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just a ninja passing by,\" Kitazawa said with a casual chuckle. \"Three boys ganging up on one little girl? You’re a disgrace to your parents.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No... wait a second! You’re a sensei!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boy on the left managed to sit up, eyes going wide. \"I’ve seen you at the Academy!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shameless!\" Toranosuke snapped, pointing accusingly at Hinata. \"You actually called a sensei for help?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Toranosuke, shut your mouth,\" Kitazawa said, his eyes narrowing. \"And what’s this about a lion?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This isn’t fair!\" Toranosuke whined, shrinking his neck like a turtle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fair?\" Kitazawa arched an eyebrow, stepping closer. \"You’ve finally hit the nail on the head.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Toranosuke’s eyes widened as he shuffled backward on his hands and feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Three against one—that’s not fair,\" Kitazawa continued, voice low and even. \"Hinata asking me for help isn’t fair either. So let’s make it even.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He paused, then said, \"One month from now. Right here. You and Hinata. One-on-one. A fair fight.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because only by facing her fears could Hinata truly overcome them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And a month would be enough time for Kitazawa to help change her timid nature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do we have a deal?\" Kitazawa held out his hand, forming it into a fist the size of a sandbag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I-I agree!\" Toranosuke blurted out, eyes glued to the massive fist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And the scarf you stole last time?\" Kitazawa asked, recalling his mission.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I... I threw it over there!\" Toranosuke pointed shakily to his left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"See you next time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa glanced in that direction and spotted the scarf lying on the grass. He gave a slight smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But to Toranosuke and the other two, that smile looked like a demon’s grin. They scrambled to their feet and ran off in a blind panic, tumbling over each other as they fled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa wasn’t worried about them telling their parents. He’d already looked into it—the boys’ families were just ordinary civilian ninja.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, Toranosuke and his friends were clearly the aggressors. As a sensei, Kitazawa had every right to protect his student.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if this went as far as the Hokage, Kitazawa knew he would still be in the right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hinata, are you okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa turned and stepped closer to where Hinata stood frozen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’d been stiff as a statue ever since the confrontation began.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing his voice and seeing his warm smile, Hinata finally stirred. Without warning, she flung herself forward and hugged him tightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa blinked, slightly taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could feel her small body trembling against him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all... she was still just a little girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa gently rested his hand on her head and stroked her hair in reassurance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>--------------------------------\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>AN : To keep the Chapters coming - Support with POWER STONES.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Every 100 power stones - 1 BONUS Chapter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Check out my P@treon For extra Chapters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thank You For your Support!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[email protected]\u002Fnoviceauthor777\u003C\u002Fp>",1384,"2026-06-09T05:35:55.746Z",1,"novelbin.me","51be6a48089ebe1f89ba86e54ad55af511dc19f1b8fc36d2426b9c06656703df","naruto-strongest-shinobi-system-with-a-glitch-chapter-14","naruto-strongest-shinobi-system-with-a-glitch-chapter-12",444,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fnaruto-strongest-shinobi-system-with-a-glitch-cover.jpg"]
