Chapter 400: Teaching at the Hidden Leaf, the System Says I Am Tsunade
Shikamaru Nara said coldly.
"..."
The smile on Kiba Inuzuka's face froze.
"If only I could be like Teacher Kitazawa, making Sasuke-kun smile for me in three sentences."
Sakura Haruno said with great envy.
"It will be very difficult for Itachi in this life."
Ino Yamanaka looked at her and shook her head.
She knew Sakura Haruno too well.
Just on the point of gentleness, she would never be able to compare to Kitazawa.
"Ino!"
Sakura Haruno was furious, stood up, and glared at her unhappily.
"Sasuke is back."
Ino Yamanaka blinked and said.
"Sasuke-kun!"
Sakura Haruno changed her face quickly and greeted him with a full smile.
"Women are truly terrifying."
Shikamaru Nara shivered.
He was even more determined to marry an ordinary wife.
"I am now announcing the ranking of this monthly exam."
Kitazawa took the roster from Iruka Umino and walked in front of the students of Class 1-A.
Whether it was the theory exam or the practical exam, the ranking was about the same as the last monthly exam.
"I'm first in the practical exam again!"
Naruto Uzumaki couldn't help but laugh.
Sasuke Uchiha subconsciously looked at him, a trace of envy flashing in his eyes.
He had forgotten the taste of first place.
"Second place, Yakumo Kurama."
Kitazawa looked at Naruto Uzumaki and continued reading.
In this monthly exam, Naruto Uzumaki and Yakumo Kurama hadn't sparred.
But the reason he still ranked Naruto Uzumaki first was because he considered that Yakumo Kurama hadn't made much progress this month.
But this couldn't be blamed on her.
Her bloodline limit was too terrifying, and the starting point was too high, leading to her slow progress.
"Third place, Sasuke Uchiha."
Kitazawa paused and said: "Fourth place, Hinata Hyuga."
In this monthly exam, Sasuke Uchiha and Hinata Hyuga hadn't fought either.
But Sasuke Uchiha had been manipulated by him several times, so giving him a third place was a consolation.
Although he didn't feel there was anything worth consoling.
"This monthly exam ends here; the next monthly exam is the final exam, and the approximate time is mid-December."
Kitazawa smiled after reading the ranking: "The final exam is the true priority, and I hope everyone takes it seriously."
Sasuke Uchiha clenched his fists upon hearing this.
Once he opened the two-tomoe Sharingan, he must win everything.
"Sasuke, I'll give Itachi a surprise for the final exam!"
Naruto Uzumaki suddenly thought of something and said happily.
"...?"
Sasuke Uchiha was full of question marks.
Why was there another surprise?
He didn't want any surprises.
Naruto Uzumaki's last surprise, the Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu, had given him a big scare.
"Everyone performed very well today, and I look forward to Itachi making further progress in the final exam."
Kitazawa smiled and said: "Itachi can go back after receiving your report cards; see Itachi tomorrow."
"Goodbye, Teacher Kitazawa!"
The students of Class 1-A greeted him one after another, received their report cards from Iruka Umino, and left the school in a swarm.
For most students, grades were important, but not that important; grabbing time to play was the priority.
"Let's go, Naruto, I'll treat Itachi to Ichiraku Ramen."
Kiba Inuzuka sighed and said.
He felt this bet could be terminated.
Because he lost every time.
But a man keeps his word; he could afford a meal of ramen.
"How about I treat Itachi this time?"
Naruto Uzumaki scratched his head and asked.
Always sponging off others, he felt embarrassed.
Especially since Kiba Inuzuka was so unlucky.
"What are Itachi saying?"
Kiba Inuzuka patted him on the shoulder and asked: "Are Itachi looking down on me?"
"I didn't mean that!"
Naruto Uzumaki said quickly.
"Then let's go!"
Kiba Inuzuka hummed lightly and said.
"Thank Itachi, Kiba!"
Naruto Uzumaki said with a bright smile.
"I'm the second young master of the Inuzuka clan anyway! This little bit of money is nothing."
Kiba Inuzuka looked at his bright smile, patted his chest, and said.
The two went to Ichiraku Ramen together.
After eating, Naruto Uzumaki hummed an unknown melody and happily arrived home.
"So happy? Did Itachi get first place again?"
Naruto Uzumaki just opened the door when he heard a familiar voice.
The smile on his face became even richer, and he shouted with surprise: "Grandpa Third!"
"Naruto, Itachi haven't answered my question."
Hiruzen Sarutobi said with a chuckle.
Actually, there was no need to answer; he already knew the answer.
After all, Naruto Uzumaki was so happy, it couldn't be fake.
"I got first place in the practical exam again!"
Naruto Uzumaki nodded and said.
"It would be perfect if Itachi could get first place in the theory exam sometime."
Hiruzen Sarutobi said with anticipation.
After all, Minato Namikaze was first every year when he was at the Ninja Academy.
"I... I'll try."
Naruto Uzumaki's smile froze.
It wasn't that he wasn't working hard, it was just that his classmates were too freakish.
Even his first place in the practical exam was obtained by risking his life.
But for the theory exam, if Itachi don't know, Itachi don't know; working hard is useless.
"Hahaha, no need to be so miserable."
Hiruzen Sarutobi laughed upon seeing this.
"That's good."
Naruto Uzumaki breathed a sigh of relief.
He was really afraid Hiruzen Sarutobi would make him strive for first place in the theory exam.
If that were the case, he would have to fall into the hell of brushing questions again.
"Today is November 2nd."
Hiruzen Sarutobi took out a stack of money and said: "This is your living expenses for this month."
"Thank Itachi, Grandpa Third!"
Naruto Uzumaki's eyes lit up and said: "I can go buy limited edition instant noodles again!"
"Itachi really like instant noodles."
Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head and said.
"Hehe."
Naruto Uzumaki smiled and put away the money, saying: "Grandpa Third, when I was fighting Sasuke today, I saw that tail again."
Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't help but let out a light "huh."
How come this Nine-Tails doesn't seem as hard to get along with as the legends say?
In less than two months, it had already helped Naruto Uzumaki twice; it was truly strange.
"What is that tail?"
Naruto Uzumaki asked curiously.
"I'll tell Itachi in a while."
Hiruzen Sarutobi coughed lightly, changed the subject, and said: "Itachi can save some of your money for December."
"Why?"
Naruto Uzumaki asked in confusion.
"What do Itachi think of Kitazawa?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't answer his question directly and asked back.
"Teacher Kitazawa is of course very good!"
Naruto Uzumaki immediately smiled: "He is very good in all aspects!"
"December 21st is Kitazawa's birthday."
Hiruzen Sarutobi reminded him.
"I see!"
