And timid, too—he’d burst into tears whenever he got scared.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Mizuki had purposely neglected to inform Iruka Umino about this morning’s gathering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh? If you two were childhood friends, does that mean you were also crying your eyes out back then?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa shot back lazily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It only proved the saying that in any group of three people, one was bound to be an idiot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wha—? Of course not!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizuki’s grin stiffened, and he quickly tried to deny it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I see.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa smiled, patted Mizuki lightly on the shoulder, and gave him a knowing look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’No—what exactly do you ’see,’ you bastard?!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizuki’s jaw clenched. He wanted to explain himself, but Kitazawa had already turned away, heading back to Class 1-A.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn you, Kitazawa!\" Mizuki snarled under his breath. \"One day, you’ll regret this!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes glinted with suppressed fury.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, Kitazawa was basking in Hiruzen Sarutobi’s attention, making it nearly impossible for Mizuki’s little schemes to succeed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking a deep breath, Mizuki shifted his gaze toward Hyuga Neji, who was practicing nearby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d originally sought out Kitazawa to brag about his own genius student—but instead, he’d been completely outmaneuvered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa paused mid-step, stroking his chin thoughtfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’They say a gentleman’s revenge can wait ten years... but I’m no gentleman.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, he might tolerate being pursued by a woman—but never by a man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, dealing with Mizuki was a delicate matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Mizuki hadn’t yet committed any major crimes that could justify action against him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kitazawa-sensei!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A familiar voice rang out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto came running over, brimming with energy as always.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa glanced at him, a sharp gleam sparking in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, an idea struck him—a perfect way to deal with Mizuki.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the original story, Mizuki had manipulated Naruto into stealing the Scroll of Seals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back in his previous life, Kitazawa had always found that incident suspicious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could the Scroll of Seals, containing Konoha’s most forbidden and powerful jutsu, be stolen so easily?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa had always assumed the worst of people—but there had to be deeper forces at work behind that event, like Hiruzen Sarutobi’s subtle machinations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Current Mission: Send Mizuki to Prison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mission Reward: Fire Release: Heavenly Prison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa raised an eyebrow, grinning in delight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Mizuki, your rat-like existence ends today—with one swift move.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa recalled the Prison in the Land of Grass—Hozuki Castle—a notorious prison known for holding dangerous shinobi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that prison was a brilliant warden named Mui, whose signature technique was Fire Release: Heavenly Prison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The jutsu was impressive. It sealed an enemy’s chakra, preventing them from forming any jutsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even more terrifying, if the target moved too far away after being marked by Heavenly Prison, they’d spontaneously erupt in flames.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though called \"Fire Release,\" the technique was actually a hybrid of Fire Release and advanced Fuinjutsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in the shinobi world, there was no overstating how fearsome fuinjutsu truly was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were practically the \"source code\" of the ninja world—right up there with Sage Mode.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words... utterly terrifying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A new day had begun at the Ninja Academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kitazawa-sensei.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke cast a brief glance at Naruto, hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward to approach Kitazawa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sasuke!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uzumaki Naruto greeted him with a huge grin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I won’t lose to you in the physical test this time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke’s brow twitched. Somehow, Naruto’s cheerful smile always felt like a provocation. He responded coolly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If I could beat you once, I can beat you again!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto puffed out his chest, his eyes sparkling with confidence. \"See you at first place!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Have you grown up or something, talking about \"meeting at the top\"...?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke subtly edged backward. Any longer around Naruto and he’d be dragged down to his level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahhh!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sudden beast-like yell split the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Iruka Umino came charging across the training grounds at what was probably the top speed of his life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seventeen years old—and already a teacher.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa glanced at the clock. It was 8:55 a.m. Iruka had just barely avoided being late.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"S-sorry, Kitazawa-senpai!\" Iruka gasped, doubled over and sweating buckets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s fine, as long as you made it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa paused, then added, \"And... be careful around Mizuki.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Iruka blinked, bewildered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’What’s that supposed to mean?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, everyone, gather around! I’m going to explain the rules for today’s practical exam.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa clapped his hands, drawing everyone’s attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Normally, a practical exam would be an all-out brawl—a real shinobi clash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the students had only been enrolled for a month. Most of them still hadn’t mastered the three basic jutsu. Right now, they were basically just baby birds pecking at each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, if it were a true fight, it would be an utter massacre for the kids from civilian families. The clan heirs would wipe the floor with them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To avoid traumatizing the civilian students, the first practical exam wasn’t a full-scale battle. There was no one-on-one matchup system.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This exam has four parts: the Clone Technique, a physical fitness test, shuriken throwing, and kunai throwing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa raised four fingers as he spoke. \"I’ll demonstrate first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Technically, it was a demonstration... But in reality, he was sneakily showing off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa pulled out a kunai and a shuriken. With a quick flick of both wrists, he threw them simultaneously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The kunai and shuriken collided midair, then spun off on perfect arcs and embedded themselves dead center in two distant bullseyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d definitely done it on purpose—to keep Uchiha Sasuke in check.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Amazing!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto whooped with genuine excitement, clapping wildly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This wasn’t fake praise. That flashy throw was seriously cool.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nearby, Hinata clenched her fists, eyes shining with quiet longing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’If only I could be as strong as Kitazawa-sensei...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it wasn’t impossible. If she managed to win first place, maybe even Hiashi would finally look at her differently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke squinted at Kitazawa, feeling a surge of competitiveness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’What’s with this guy...? Even his \"demonstration\" is ridiculous.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke let out a silent sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a pity he hadn’t yet learned how to manipulate shuriken trajectories. Otherwise, he could’ve put on a show to steal Kitazawa’s spotlight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The first part of the exam is the clone jutsu,\" Kitazawa announced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After demonstrating the jutsu again, he said, \"Step up in order.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took out the class roster and a pen, ready to record scores.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s my turn!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto, bursting with energy, strode to the center of the training ground like a rooster ready to fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Naruto, go get ’em!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shikamaru and Choji yelled from the sidelines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto swept his gaze around. He knew most people expected him to fail.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Kitazawa’s calm, encouraging look struck a chord deep inside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’If I mess up here... my whole future at the Academy is over!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Clone Jutsu!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto shouted dramatically, forming rapid hand seals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa’s eyelid twitched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Where did you pick up the habit of yelling out the name of your jutsu like it’s a finishing move?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two Naruto clones appeared in puffs of smoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were identical, solid, and—finally—normal-looking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not bad,\" Kitazawa praised. \"This time you’ve outdone yourself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you, Kitazawa-sensei!\" Naruto said, beaming with pride.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, in the Hokage’s office, a crystal ball shimmered on Hiruzen Sarutobi’s desk, showing Naruto’s determined face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hiruzen stroked his beard, a thoughtful smile playing on his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Kitazawa really does have a knack for this teaching business...’\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>For Every 10 5-star reviews - 2 BONUS Chapters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For getting to Top 10 Power ranking- 3 Extra Chapters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>AN: 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>",1342,"2026-06-09T05:35:55.746Z",1,"novelbin.me","3e7d2db9a2a81574408dc22191acffa6212b3497ef23a629a78ebab75f73aa01","naruto-strongest-shinobi-system-with-a-glitch-chapter-35","naruto-strongest-shinobi-system-with-a-glitch-chapter-33",444,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fnaruto-strongest-shinobi-system-with-a-glitch-cover.jpg"]
