Reward issued.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa nodded slightly, satisfied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’At least the system’s rewards arrive on time.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Yin Release, Kitazawa now possessed four chakra natures: Wind, Fire, Water, and Yin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only Earth, Lightning, and Yang Release remained for him to collect, bringing him closer to mastering all seven basic types.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the world of shinobi, there were extremely few who could wield every chakra nature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theoretically, once someone mastered them all, they could comprehend Yin-Yang Release and even createTruth-Seeking Orbs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, achieving that required complete mastery of both form and nature transformations for every element—an impossible task for most.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Kitazawa’s talent, it was unrealistic... so the burden of progress fell squarely on the system’s shoulders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The May monthly exam ends here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After reading out the rankings, Kitazawa dismissed the students.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"All of you, go home and get some rest.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kiba!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto grinned and called out, \"Don’t forget our bet!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph, as if I’d forget!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kiba waved a hand dismissively, saying with forced bravado, \"It’s just Ichiraku Ramen. Eat as much as you want!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Awesome!\" Naruto exclaimed, eyes gleaming. \"Then I’m not holding back!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t get cocky, Naruto. I’m beating you next time for sure!\" Kiba declared, slinging an arm around his shoulders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You never know!\" Naruto blinked at the unexpected show of camaraderie, then broke into a bright smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa watched them with a faint chuckle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Bad company,’he thought wryly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though, to be honest, he was relieved that Naruto had friends like Kiba by his side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The kid had been through enough loneliness growing up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, no new mission had been triggered this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But thinking about it realistically, even if the system did hand him a new quest, it might be too difficult to complete.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next task would probably be something like getting Naruto into the top five... or even the top three—or first place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the difficulty of that was roughly on par with Kakuzu trying to assassinate Senju Hashirama.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sasuke-kun, want to walk home together?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sakura hurried to block Sasuke’s path, looking hopeful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No. We’re not going the same way.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke spared her a glance and picked up his pace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ugh!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sakura clenched her fists, glaring after him. \"Am I really that annoying?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sasuke dislikes everyone equally,\" Ino said dryly, shaking her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Ino was certainly boy-crazy, she wasn’t quite as obsessive as Sakura. She could let go when necessary, which allowed her to see Sasuke’s personality more clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet even Ino didn’t fully understand Sasuke’s motivations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn’t avoiding Sakura because he disliked her personally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was simply eager to get home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he’d finally secured first place this time—and he wanted nothing more than to hear his father’s praise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Dad, praise me. Big Brother, praise me...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kitazawa!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A voice called out suddenly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizuki appeared, smiling as he approached.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let me guess,\" Kitazawa said blandly. \"Neji scored perfectly again?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizuki stiffened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His confident entrance faltered completely under Kitazawa’s casual prediction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Congratulations,\" Kitazawa said coolly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizuki cleared his throat, trying to save face. \"Actually, I came to ask about scheduling the friendly match between our classes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How about next Friday?\" Kitazawa suggested after a moment’s thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No problem,\" Mizuki said, puffing up his chest. \"Makes no difference to me when it happens.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I think we should have a referee,\" Kitazawa continued thoughtfully. \"How about inviting Hokage-sama?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you serious?\" Mizuki scoffed. \"Why would the Hokage care about a friendly match between two school classes?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Under normal circumstances, of course he wouldn’t.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa’s smile turned mysterious. \"But if I invite him, there’s a pretty good chance he’ll come.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, even if he didn’t issue a formal invitation, Hiruzen would probably sneak a look anyway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You?\" Mizuki’s eyebrows shot up in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure, Kitazawa had been summoned by the Hokage before—but in Mizuki’s mind, Kitazawa was still just a lowly Chunin instructor, nowhere near important enough to attract the Hokage’s attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then we’ll see,\" Kitazawa said lightly, turning to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizuki glared at his back, his pleasant facade vanishing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Let’s see how far you can actually go, Kitazawa!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for whether the Hokage would truly show up to referee... In Mizuki’s mind, that was absolutely impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A simple sparring match between first- and second-year classes was far too trivial to interest the Hokage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke sprinted all the way home, practically bursting with anticipation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Take a bath first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could even speak, his mother, Mikoto, cut him off gently. \"Your father and brother aren’t home yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Really?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The excitement that had lit up Sasuke’s face dimmed slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You got first place in the monthly exam, didn’t you?\" Mikoto asked as she walked toward the bathroom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Eh? How did you know?\" Sasuke blinked in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re my son. Of course I know.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She gave him a knowing smile as she turned on the tap and started running a hot bath. \"They should be back by the time you’re finished, but there’s no rush.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Got it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke shut the door behind him, stepped into the steaming bath, and sank into the warmth with a sigh of satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Half an hour later, the front door opened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Father!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke shot out of his room, practically thrusting his report card into Uchiha Fugaku’s hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"First place, huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fugaku gave it a quick glance, then nodded. \"Well done.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I also learnedFire Release: Phoenix Flower Jutsu!\" Sasuke puffed out his chest with pride, silently begging for more praise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You didn’t disgrace the Uchiha name.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For once, Fugaku offered a rare smile. \"As expected of my son.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thanks, Father!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke fought the urge to shout with joy. His father had acknowledged him—truly acknowledged him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, the door opened again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Big Brother!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke dashed to Itachi, eagerly pressing the report card into his hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Congratulations on getting first place,\" Itachi said warmly, without hesitation. \"You’ll probably earn it more times than I ever did.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke’s eyes widened. That thought hadn’t even crossed his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Itachi had entered the Academy at age six and graduated by seven. With three semesters a year and four monthly exams per semester, Itachi hadn’t stayed long enough to rack up many first-place finishes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Sasuke stayed longer, he reallycouldsurpass his brother’s record.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thought made him grin from ear to ear. In that moment, he felt like the happiest person in the entire Ninja World.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Itachi, come to my room. I need to speak with you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uchiha Fugaku turned and walked toward his study.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sasuke, wait for me,\" Itachi said, patting his little brother on the head before following their father—his earlier smile vanishing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the study, Fugaku wasted no time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Any activity from within the village? Especially from Root?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had allowed Itachi to join the Anbu for one reason: to serve as the Uchiha Clan’s eyes and ears inside Konoha, especially keeping tabs on Danzo’s Root division.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nothing unusual,\" Itachi replied coolly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What about your investigation into why Lady Tsunade returned to the village?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fugaku narrowed his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s related to Kitazawa,\" Itachi answered. \"He proposed the creation of aPsychological Medical Ninjasystem to Lord Hokage.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kitazawa?\" Fugaku’s brow furrowed. \"Who is that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He’s a teacher at the Academy,\" Itachi replied, a trace of disappointment creeping into his voice. \"Also Sasuke’s homeroom teacher.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It stung a little—how little attention Fugaku paid to his younger son.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, Itachi understood why his father found it hard to believe. For a mere Chunin to propose such a groundbreaking system... itwasunprecedented.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Explain in detail,\" Fugaku said, voice firm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And so, Itachi explained everything he knew about Kitazawa and the system he was developing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I see...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fugaku fell silent, his brows knitting. \"I wonder how long Tsunade intends to stay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I think her presence is a good thing,\" Itachi said after a short pause. \"At the very least, it’ll keep the our clan in check for a while.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tsunade was no ordinary shinobi. As one of the Legendary Sannin, the granddaughter of the First Hokage, Senju Hashirama, and a former student of the Third Hokage, her influence in the village was undeniable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ever since Shisui’s death, more and more hardliners had begun to rise within the clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Tsunade’s return was... inconvenient for them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her power and prestige made any rebellion far more dangerous—and far more likely to fail.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Itachi,\" Fugaku said gravely, \"don’t forget where your loyalties lie.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are a shinobi of the Uchiha Clan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I understand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Itachi fell silent for a long moment before replying softly.\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>",1492,"2026-06-09T05:35:56.024Z",1,"novelbin.me","22a75405999ff881e610324ae7c2a1a34940c706182991f80f50048d88c1e336","naruto-strongest-shinobi-system-with-a-glitch-chapter-70","naruto-strongest-shinobi-system-with-a-glitch-chapter-68",444,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fnaruto-strongest-shinobi-system-with-a-glitch-cover.jpg"]
