Chapter 164: Teaching in the Hokage, the System Says I'm Tsunade's Student, Chapter 86

Being able to see Sasuke Uchiha get deflated was undoubtedly a joy.

"What a nice atmosphere."

Hiruzen Sarutobi was extremely satisfied to see this happy scene.

This was exactly what he wanted to see!

The future of the Hidden Leaf Village was a scene of prosperity.

"Quiet."

Kitazawa noticed Hiruzen Sarutobi walking toward them and quickly said.

"Everyone performed very well."

Hiruzen Sarutobi met everyone's gaze and announced, "But Class 1-A is slightly better."

"Yay!"

Naruto Uzumaki and the others shouted excitedly.

"It's only the first competition item."

Mizuki took a deep breath and said, "As long as Itachi win the subsequent competition items, our class will still win in the end!"

Class 2-A regained a lot of momentum upon hearing this.

"Good, everyone is in high spirits."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded and said, "Rest for ten minutes, then start the second competition item."

Taking advantage of the rest time, the two Anbu ninjas helped build the venue.

The second competition item was a competition of chakra control.

Therefore, Kitazawa asked Hiruzen Sarutobi to dispatch two Anbu ninjas who knew Earth Style and Water Style.

There was no need to transplant trees; the Earth Style ninjas created earthen cylinders.

As for walking on water, it was even simpler: the Earth Style ninjas first built an earthen circle, and then the Water Style ninjas poured water into it.

After the venue was completed, Kitazawa felt a bit like those variety shows from his previous life where boys and girls rush forward.

Although there were only two competitive items.

"The rules for the second competition item are very simple."

After the rest time ended, Kitazawa said, "Attach chakra to your feet; the first to reach the finish line is the winner."

"Everyone, stand at the starting line in order."

Iruka Umino immediately organized the students of Class 1-A.

Soon, the students of both classes were all standing at the starting line.

In front of them was a huge pool, and after passing through it, there were cylinders like trees.

Climbing to the top of the cylinder and jumping down was the finish line of this competition.

"This time Neji will definitely be first!"

Tenten said, cheering him on.

"Hmm."

Neji Hyuga nodded very calmly.

Because he didn't think Tenten was wrong.

The Hyuga clan valued chakra control very much, whether it was the Byakugan or the Gentle Fist.

After all, without super strong chakra control, it was difficult to make the enemy lose combat effectiveness through acupoint striking.

"It's up to Itachi, Neji."

Mizuki patted him on the shoulder and said.

Losing one match didn't matter, but if he lost two in a row, and in front of the Hokage, he would be too shameful.

"Sakura, let's compete to see who reaches the finish line first."

Ino Yamanaka said while doing warm-up exercises.

"Okay."

Sakura Haruno smiled, "Whoever loses will have their homework doubled tonight."

"..."

Naruto Uzumaki, who was just about to speak, changed his expression drastically upon hearing about doubled homework and gave up on joining the fun.

Because of Kitazawa's special training, he now had a huge shadow over doing problems.

"Naruto!"

Rock Lee gave a thumbs up and said, "Let's have a youthful duel!"

"No problem!"

Naruto Uzumaki showed his flashing teeth in response, "In the name of youth!"

"Ready!"

Kitazawa interrupted their small talk and said, "Three! Two! One! Start!"

A group of people stepped onto the water surface one after another.

Naruto Uzumaki and Rock Lee looked at each other and then set off together.

But after taking only a few steps, a splash was heard.

Rock Lee fell into the water.

"Lee?"

Naruto Uzumaki couldn't help but be stunned.

"I can only go this far!"

Rock Lee shouted loudly, "Naruto, carry my youth and keep going!"

"Lee!"

Naruto Uzumaki's eyes filled with tears, and his body trembled as he shouted.

"Go for it!"

Rock Lee gave a thumbs up and said.

"Youth!"

Naruto Uzumaki wiped away his tears and continued forward.

But his chakra control wasn't great either, and after walking for a while, he fell into the water.

This was all thanks to Kitazawa.

Otherwise, he and Rock Lee would be about the same, a mess in chakra control.

"I have some regrets, Shikaku."

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed and said.

"Regret what?"

Shikaku Nara held back his laughter and asked.

Fortunately, he had received professional training and didn't laugh out loud in front of the Hokage.

"When Naruto went to find Guy, I should have stopped him."

Hiruzen Sarutobi rubbed his brow and said, "But it's too late now; Naruto has already been influenced by Guy."

"Such a Naruto has no disadvantages for the Hidden Leaf Village."

Shikaku Nara thought for a moment and said.

"That may be so, but I always feel that Minato and Kushina will blame me."

Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head and said.

Not far away, Kitazawa couldn't help but twitch his mouth.

Were they here to be funny?

"Guy's style is like this."

Kurenai Yuhi couldn't help but laugh, "It's a pity Kakashi didn't come."

Kitazawa suddenly thought of a problem.

If Naruto Uzumaki became Kakashi Hatake's student like in the original work, then... he could only wish him good luck.

Facing a student with the same style as Might Guy, Kakashi Hatake's head would probably explode.

"The most fortunate thing is that Guy didn't come."

Kitazawa said with a smile.

"Indeed."

Kurenai Yuhi imagined the scene of Might Guy, Rock Lee, and Naruto Uzumaki hugging and crying, and only felt a chill.

"Is Neji in first place?"

Kitazawa raised an eyebrow and said.

In less than a minute, most of the students had been eliminated, and only a few were still persisting.

Water walking and tree climbing training should have been done after they graduated; now that it was advanced by several years, they naturally performed poorly.

"As expected of a genius from the Hyuga clan."

Kurenai Yuhi paused and said with some surprise, "But your four students are chasing very closely."

She was talking about Sakura Haruno, Ino Yamanaka, Hinata Hyuga, and Sasuke Uchiha.

Precisely because Neji Hyuga was very famous, their relentless pursuit made many people feel surprised.

"Damn it! Am I under a genjutsu?"

Mizuki felt it was outrageous.

A genius like Neji Hyuga, and Class 1-A actually produced four?

No, impossible!

Mizuki believed that the final winner would definitely be Neji Hyuga.

A few minutes later, five people entered the second project one after another, which was climbing the cylinder.

Neji Hyuga looked left and right and couldn't help but frown.

He didn't expect that four people had kept up with his pace, and among them was even Hinata Hyuga.

Neji Hyuga gritted his teeth and suddenly accelerated.

This change made it impossible for Hinata Hyuga and Sasuke Uchiha to keep up anymore.

Only Sakura Haruno and Ino Yamanaka were still biting at his heels.

After climbing more than halfway, Ino Yamanaka's speed slowed down.

But at the same time, Neji Hyuga also felt physically and mentally exhausted, and his speed slowed down unconsciously.

Just at the moment he relaxed, Sakura Haruno leaped up, took the lead, and reached the top.

"What?"

Neji Hyuga's heart shook, but he couldn't stop it anymore and could only watch Sakura Haruno rush to the finish line.

He was struck by lightning.

He could find a reason for the failure in the previous competition item.

After all, the Gentle Fist wasn't that flashy, and it was normal to lose to the Fire Style: Great Fireball Jutsu.

But now, in this competition of chakra control, he had suffered a real, miserable defeat.
