What kind of malicious intent could a bunch of six- or seven-year-old kids really have? Besides, Karin wasn’t like Hinata, who struggled with shyness; her personality was closer to Tsunade’s or even Sakura’s in the original story—straightforward and bossy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Class is starting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tapped the podium lightly, and the classroom immediately fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karin blinked in surprise. The authority in his presence was unquestionable—every student sat up straighter, no trace of reluctance on their faces. Even the perpetually lazy Shikamaru looked attentive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their first lesson was on the Will of Fire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first, Karin thought she wouldn’t be able to follow along—she was a transfer student, after all, with no formal schooling. But the more she listened, the more engrossed she became.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’So this is what a sensei from one of the Five Great Villages is like?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Truly terrifying!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Karin, come to my office.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa dismissed the class and called her out before leaving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll be back later—I’m going to see Kitazawa-sensei,\" Karin told Ino and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We’ll be training at the grounds,\" Ino said with a grin. \"If you need us, come find us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sasuke-kun and I are at the Artificial Lake!\" Sakura quickly chimed in. \"You should stop by too!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She often helped at the hospital, but whenever Kitazawa wasn’t around, she would sneak off to the lake—partly to practice medical ninjutsu, and partly to steal glances at Sasuke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, don’t forget me!\" Kiba added loudly. \"I’ll be there too, working on Water Walking!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karin nodded, her chest warming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back in Kusa, she and her mother had spent their lives locked away, friendless and isolated. Now, all of a sudden, she had people waiting for her. It felt like a dream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After leaving the classroom, she headed for Kitazawa’s office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come in,\" his voice called after her knock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kitazawa-sensei.\" She stepped inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How was your first day at school?\" Kitazawa asked with a gentle smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It felt... really good,\" Karin answered sincerely. \"Everyone’s been kind, and Sensei’s lessons are amazing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you ever run into trouble, come to me right away,\" he said with a nod. Then his tone shifted slightly. \"But you’ve already missed quite a bit—it’s the second semester, after all. You’ll need to catch up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I understand,\" she agreed quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For now, you won’t be attending regular classes. Once you’ve made up for what you missed, you’ll join the rest.\" Kitazawa casually picked up a textbook. \"Come with me—we’ll head to the training ground.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Eh?\" Karin froze.’Tutoring at the training ground?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s too quiet in my office,\" Kitazawa explained, as if reading her mind. \"You’ll feel more motivated with Ino and the others around.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karin was stunned.’He really thinks of everything... Kitazawa-sensei is incredible.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wasn’t used to this warmth. In Kusa, kindness didn’t exist—everyone was cruel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the two arrived at the training ground, Ino’s eyes widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Karin?\" she said in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shikamaru immediately took the chance to slack off, dropping his stance. Hinata kept training, though her gaze drifted toward them. Neji gave a single glance before ignoring them completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kabuto, however, approached first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She’ll be with you for her make-up lessons,\" Kitazawa explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He unrolled a summoning scroll and pulled out a desk and chair. Karin hurried to sit down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is the first semester’s material,\" Kitazawa said, placing a stack of textbooks before her. \"Read through it first. My shadow clone will guide you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On her own, Karin’s progress would be slow. But with his clone, she’d learn faster than in normal classes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you, Kitazawa-sensei.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pile of books made her head spin, but she didn’t complain. After the nightmare of Kusa, even studying like this felt wonderful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You all keep training,\" Kitazawa reminded the others, his gaze lingering on Shikamaru, who had been itching for a break. With a sigh, Shikamaru resumed practicing the Shadow sewing Technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kitazawa-sensei!\" Kabuto spoke up. \"I’ve already learnedGale PalmandGreat Breakthrough.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Impressive,\" Kitazawa nodded. Two C-rank jutsu in just half a month—solid progress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll teach you a third one now,\" he said after a pause. \"But it’s B-rank, so it won’t be easy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pulled out a shuriken and infused it with chakra.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wind Release: Shuriken!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The weapon whistled through the air, slicing cleanly through a rock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is your next challenge,\" Kitazawa explained. \"If you can’t manage it yet, focus on refining your chakra nature transformation first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, sensei.\" Kabuto drew a deep breath and prepared himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After half an hour of guidance, Kitazawa left a shadow clone to oversee him. Kabuto’s strong foundation and control meant he didn’t need constant supervision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kitazawa-sensei!\" Hinata finally spoke up, unable to contain herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He walked over, gently patting her head. \"What’s wrong? Having trouble?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hinata shook her head, her lips curving shyly. \"No... I can already perform twelve consecutive palms!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa chuckled. \"So you’re asking me to praise you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her face turned scarlet, and she lowered her head, fidgeting with her fingers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’ve made remarkable progress,\" he said warmly. \"Your strength is enough to qualify for the Chūnin Exams.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hinata’s heart fluttered at the praise. \"It’s all thanks to your guidance, sensei!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t get carried away. Keep pushing toward mastering the Sixty-Four Palms,\" Kitazawa said, lightly pinching her cheek.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mhm!\" She nodded with determination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once satisfied with her progress, Kitazawa moved on. Passing through two tree-lined paths, he finally reached Naruto.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or rather—a horde of Narutos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dozens of clones, drenched in sweat and barely standing, were still struggling with Rasengan training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The third stage was brutal, and since Naruto hadn’t resorted to shortcuts like in the original story, his progress was slower than ever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Enough, Naruto. Rest for a bit,\" Kitazawa called out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kitazawa-sensei?\" Naruto’s eyes lit up with surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dismiss the clones first,\" Kitazawa sighed. The sight of so many green jumpsuits nearly gave him a headache.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto quickly made the seals. With a series of pops, the clones vanished, their memories crashing back into him. He staggered and collapsed, pale-faced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa winced.’Monster... If it were me, recalling that many clones might kill me outright.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Here, water.\" He handed over a bottle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thanks, sensei...\" Naruto chugged it down gratefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa glanced at the boy’s stomach.’I wonder if the Nine-Tails ever eavesdrops out of boredom?’It had been locked in that dark space for years; maybe listening was its only entertainment. Then again, it could just be napping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait here a moment,\" Kitazawa said suddenly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh?\" Naruto blinked, confused, but before he could ask, Kitazawa disappeared. Moments later, he returned—with Sasuke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sasuke, activate your Sharingan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...What?\" Sasuke’s expression darkened in confusion. Called here just for this? Still, he obeyed, his scarlet eyes glowing as the air grew tense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside Naruto’s seal space—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Kyuubi stirred from its slumber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"An Uchiha...?\"Its deep voice rumbled with hatred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Few things angered it more than those cursed eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, it’s just that brat.\"Recognizing Sasuke, the fox lost interest. He was weak—hardly worth its attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back outside, Kitazawa smiled. \"Naruto, how about during this break, I tell you the story of the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, and Uchiha Madara?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That sounds awesome! I wanna hear it!\" Naruto perked up immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uchiha Madara?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wasn’t that the strongest Uchiha in the entire clan’s history?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Sasuke’s eyes flickered with interest at the name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hashirama Senju and Uchiha Madara?\" he murmured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Nine-Tails gave a low snort. Just hearing those names made its massive body shudder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back then, it had been peacefully asleep when Madara suddenly tore it away, shackled its will, and dragged it to war.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beast had always thought itself invincible, the peak of living power in the shinobi world—until Madara subdued it with nothing more than a single glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the Nine-Tails had no doubt: Madara was the strongest shinobi alive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then came Hashirama Senju, even more outrageous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re too strong, so you’ll have to be sealed!\"Hashirama had declared, pinning it to the earth with just one hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The memory still left the Nine-Tails with a lingering bitterness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Warring era stories are ancient,\" Kitazawa began lightly. \"I wasn’t there to see them myself. Just bits of wild folklore I’ve picked up. So don’t take them too seriously.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He smiled faintly. \"Whose tale do you want first?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hashirama Senju!\" Naruto shouted instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uchiha Madara,\" Sasuke said at almost the same moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa chuckled. \"Then we’ll start with Madara. Don’t look so disappointed, Naruto—most of his stories are tied directly to Hashirama anyway.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto gave a quick nod, then patted the ground beside him. \"Come on, Sasuke, sit.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a reluctant pause, Sasuke sat down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"According to unofficial records,\" Kitazawa began, his tone lowering conspiratorially, \"Madara never cried once after birth. His father, Uchiha Tajima, laughed with joy and declared his son a ’Gift from the god of war.’\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why was that something to celebrate?\" Naruto asked, confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Because the world back then was chaos,\" Kitazawa explained. \"Only the strongest survived. Even geniuses like Madara and Hashirama couldn’t protect all of their brothers.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke frowned. \"Not crying doesn’t sound like anything special. I thought you’d say his birth shook the heavens—petals falling, chakra storms, something worthy of legend.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa coughed. \"Well... when Tajima finally lifted Madara in his arms, the boy did cry. But it wasn’t the cry of a normal baby.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke blinked. \"Then what kind was it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa deadpanned: \"It was a girl’s cry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto, Sasuke, and even the Nine-Tails jolted in unison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So,\" Kitazawa continued smoothly, \"Madara was raised as a girl for years. Wore skirts and all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"???\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke’s face darkened. No. Impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Madara might have betrayed Konoha, but in the clan’s memory, his image as an indomitable force had never faded. To hear this now... it felt like his world was collapsing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No wonder!\" Naruto exclaimed. \"Sothat’swhere the Sexy Jutsu came from!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He recalled an earlier \"unofficial record\" Kitazawa had shared—Madara transforming into a beautiful woman to trick Hashirama.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he thought about it, wasn’t that the prototype of the Sexy Jutsu?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"???\" Sasuke slowly turned toward him. Don’t tell me... the Sexy Jutsu actually originated from Madara himself?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahahaha!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Nine-Tails roared with laughter, slapping its belly inside the seal. Never in its wildest dreams had it imagined such a backstory for Uchiha Madara.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine,\" Sasuke muttered darkly. \"Then what about Hashirama Senju? He must have some embarrassing tales too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Nine-Tails perked its ears instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa nodded. \"Hashirama and Madara were rivals, but also friends. Do you know what their very first contest was?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto’s eyes blazed. \"It must’ve been an epic duel! A clash of fiery spirit!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke gave a firm nod. The two strongest shinobi in the world—their first fight had to be legendary, like their final battle at the Valley of the End.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa, however, shook his head. \"No. Their first contest... was to see who could pee farther.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...What?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto’s jaw dropped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke’s mouth twitched.’Even at three years old, I wouldn’t have played something that childish...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Nine-Tails howled with laughter, its chakra thrashing the sealed space until it grew turbulent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto clutched his stomach. \"Ow—! I think I ate something bad, I’m getting gassy!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa raised a brow. \"Let me check.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto lowered his hands obediently. Kitazawa placed a glowing palm over his stomach, and green chakra flared as he probed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly detected the churning sealed space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nothing serious,\" he said, pulling back. \"Just rest a while.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But inwardly, he smirked. The Nine-Tails wasn’t sick—it was simply laughing so hard it nearly knocked itself out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, who won in the end?\" Naruto asked eagerly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke sighed.’Why does it even matter?’Still, he glanced at Kitazawa, curious despite himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hashirama,\" Kitazawa said without hesitation. \"Because Madara had one fatal weakness—he couldn’t go if anyone was standing behind him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke stiffened. \"...So someone helped Hashirama?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed. The Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, teleported behind Madara with the Flying Thunder God. Instant defeat.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke’s eyelid twitched.’The Flying Thunder God... used for that? Really?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And wasn’t that two against one?! Shameless Senju!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Nine-Tails was in tears from laughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto clutched his stomach again. \"Ahh! Not again!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa clapped his hands. \"That’s enough unofficial history for today. Back to training. Maybe next time, I’ll share more.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, that was a lie. He intended to wait a long while—the Nine-Tails might just break its silence first, desperate to hear more ridiculous \"truths\" about Madara and Hashirama.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke sat stiffly, his expression tangled and grim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto, however, was grinning ear to ear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>------------------\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>AN : Check out my new fanfic One Piece : Rob Lucci Unchained\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rob Lucci, CP9’s prodigy, is hailed as a genius unseen in centuries.
