Chapter 669

Time came to Thursday.

The Genius Class welcomed its second monthly exam.

Kitazawa ate breakfast and came to the Ninja Academy.

He had been practicing the Earth Style: Headhunter Jutsu for the past two days.

But in terms of progress, he wasn't very satisfied; it was too slow.

Kitazawa planned to use the Three-Tomoe Sharingan's ability to copy ninjutsu to accelerate his learning.

However, using the Three-Tomoe Sharingan in front of Hidden Leaf Village ninjas was hard to explain.

Plus, the Anbu were recently looking for Obito; if he exposed himself at this time, it would be hard to avoid being suspected by Hiruzen Sarutobi.

After pondering, Kitazawa decided to learn from Kakuzu.

Go to the underground black market, also known as the Exchange Center, on weekends to take on bounty missions.

For example, he planned to find a ninja from the Hidden Stone Village this Saturday to test the waters.

"Kitazawa-sensei, good morning!"

With a faint, fresh fragrance, Ino Yamanaka appeared before him.

"Good morning."

Kitazawa came to his senses and asked with a smile, "Why are Itachi alone today? Where are Shikamaru and Choji?"

"I went to the flower shop, so I didn't go with them."

Ino Yamanaka replied.

"What did Itachi go to the flower shop for?"

Kitazawa asked while walking.

"I asked my mom to prepare the flower petals I need to use for the ninjutsu I'll perform tomorrow."

Ino Yamanaka waved her small fist and said, "This time I must defeat Sakura!"

"Your strength is a bit stronger than Sakura's."

Kitazawa pondered for a moment and reminded her, "Itachi just need to be careful of her Water Style: Water Wall."

"Kitazawa-sensei!"

Ino Yamanaka accelerated and blocked his path.

But she didn't stop, instead looking at him while walking backward, her golden ponytail swinging.

"Does Water Style: Water Wall have any weaknesses?"

Ino Yamanaka asked with expectation.

"What?"

Kitazawa couldn't help but laugh, raised his hand to tap her forehead, and asked, "Are Itachi asking me to help Itachi cheat?"

"Sakura has seen my ninjutsu many times, but I haven't seen her perform Water Style: Water Wall."

Ino Yamanaka blinked and said, "I'm just gathering intelligence on my opponent in advance."

"Then I'll perform Water Style: Water Wall for Itachi once."

Kitazawa pondered for a moment and said, "As for the weakness, Itachi have to find it yourself."

"Thank Itachi, Kitazawa-sensei!"

Ino Yamanaka revealed a brilliant smile upon hearing this.

After arriving at the Ninja Academy, Kitazawa took her to the playground.

Today was the theory exam, so there weren't many students on the playground.

Water Style: Water Wall!

Kitazawa stood in place and performed hand seals.

A stream of water appeared out of thin air, and after circling around him, a water wall rose up all around.

"An all-around defense?"

Ino Yamanaka bit her finger and fell into thought.

"How is it?"

Kitazawa dispelled the Water Style: Water Wall.

"Feels very troublesome."

Ino Yamanaka said with a distressed little face, "No wonder Sakura is so confident."

"Itachi think about it carefully."

Kitazawa patted her head and said, "No ninjutsu is invincible."

"Mm."

Ino Yamanaka said very freely, "I'll think about it in the afternoon; for now, let's hurry to school."

After she finished speaking, she pulled Kitazawa and walked toward the Genius Class classroom.

"Ino, why did Itachi come with Kitazawa-sensei today?"

Tenten asked with curiosity.

"Met on the way."

Ino Yamanaka rolled her eyes and said, "I asked Kitazawa-sensei for advice on how to defeat Sakura."

"Eh?"

Sakura Haruno's eyes widened abruptly as she said, "That's not fair!"

"Hmph, Itachi're going to lose for sure this time!"

Ino Yamanaka hugged Kitazawa's arm and said triumphantly.

"Kitazawa-sensei isn't that kind of person!"

Sakura Haruno glanced at Kitazawa and said affirmatively.

"Itachi actually couldn't be fooled?"

Ino Yamanaka's smile stiffened, she curled her lips and said.

"That's truly terrifying."

Shikamaru Nara shook his head and said, "To use psychological warfare for a monthly exam."

"I think this is very youthful!"

Rock Lee gave a thumbs up, his teeth flashing.

"Hasn't Naruto come yet?"

Kiba Inuzuka looked left and right and said, "I'm not used to it without his echo."

"If Itachi can get used to this kind of thing, then Itachi're not far from being finished."

Shikamaru Nara complained.

"Naruto probably overslept."

Kitazawa checked the time and said, "There are ten minutes left."

"He must have practiced until too late last night."

Kiba Inuzuka guessed.

"Having talent and being so diligent, that's why Naruto is number one."

Ino Yamanaka said with admiration.

"Last time it was Sasuke-kun who was number one!"

Sakura Haruno immediately corrected.

"This time it will be too."

Sasuke Uchiha said with a calm face.

"Ahhh!"

Naruto Uzumaki's voice rang out.

A green whirlwind rushed into the classroom at extreme speed.

"Am... am I late?"

Naruto Uzumaki asked, panting.

"The exam is already over, Naruto."

Shikamaru Nara said with a pained expression.

Naruto Uzumaki was stunned on the spot.

Sasuke Uchiha couldn't help but shake his head.

How could he believe such words?

"Alright, everyone sit down, the exam is about to start."

Kitazawa patted Naruto Uzumaki's shoulder and said.

"It hasn't started?"

Naruto Uzumaki immediately breathed a sigh of relief; he looked at Shikamaru Nara and asked with dissatisfaction, "Itachi actually lied to me?"

"I'll treat Itachi to Ichiraku Ramen at noon."

Shikamaru Nara chose the simplest solution.

Kitazawa distributed the test papers row by row.

When the bell rang, everyone picked up their pens and started answering.

Kitazawa didn't take this opportunity to go to the playground to practice ninjutsu this time.

He sat in front of the podium, took out paper and pen, and studied his limb regeneration medical ninjutsu.

Time passed slowly.

Two hours passed in the blink of an eye.

"Everyone stop writing."

Kitazawa stood up and scanned them; the students' expressions were all very colorful, each different.

He smiled and collected all the test papers.

"Tomorrow at nine in the morning, we will have the practical exam on the playground; everyone remember not to be late."

Kitazawa took the test papers and returned to the office.
