Promising the future ahead of time, starting with Naruto

Chapter 17: The Squad! (Please continue reading!)
Genichi Shushita continued to play, and he did indeed put tremendous pressure on many people at the school, including Obito Uchiha and Genma Shiranui.

But at that age, there aren't many people who can roll around with Genichi Shushita.

Shizune was one of them, because Genichi under the tree was sitting next to her, and he was someone she admired immensely.

Sarutobi Asuma is one of them, because he never gives up.

He was even more dissatisfied with his father Hiruzen Sarutobi's attitude towards him.

Of course, Matt Kay was also involved.

But his curly hair wasn't because of Genichi Kinoshita; it was already curly, but now it's even curder.

None of this has anything to do with Genichi Shushita.

He rolled up his sleeve not because of anyone else.

Autumn passes and winter comes.

Before we knew it, Konoha's 42nd year was coming to an end.

On this day, Hiruzen Sarutobi received an application to graduate early. After seeing the name, he raised an eyebrow slightly: "Genichi is graduating early?"

Futaki Ryusei nodded: "Yes."

"He has mastered the basics of illusion techniques and Konoha-style swordsmanship, and he can recite other theoretical knowledge by heart. The school really has no way to help him improve any further."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded: "Then let's arrange it as soon as possible!"

"Yes!"

Futaki Ryusei accepted the order and left.

Meanwhile, Hiruzen Sarutobi began to ponder where to assign Genichi Kinoshita.

Since they graduated early, the only option was to place Genichi Kinoshita into an existing ninja squad.

Furthermore, Genichi's talent must be given a good mentor, otherwise it will be wasted.

Water escape...

Are there any Jonin in Konoha who are particularly skilled in Water Release techniques?
Maybe not.

However, there are also Jonin who are skilled in Water Release techniques.

However, it seems that Genichi Shushita doesn't really need to be taught how to use water escape techniques.

The next day.

After arranging the graduation exams, Futaki Ryusei came to the Hokage's office again to report.

When Hiruzen Sarutobi brought up the matter of team assignments, Ruki Futaki was taken aback: "Third Hokage, Genichi is indeed outstanding, but isn't this arrangement a bit too fast?"

He felt that this year's graduates should be able to insert Genichi Kinoshita into the team, as the missions that such a genin squad takes on are very simple and would be easy for Genichi Kinoshita to adapt to.

But if we're assigning experienced ninja teams, we can't just let a newbie like Genichi Kinoshita take on those childish missions, can we?
Therefore, Futaki Ryusei immediately objected.

Hiruzen Sarutobi said, "Ryusei, don't worry. Genichi isn't as fragile as you think. His thinking is very mature, and Minato has praised him for this more than once."

"Furthermore, you must also trust the Jonin leading the team, as well as Genichi's future companions."

Futaki Ryusei, considering Genichi Kinoshita's excellence and his renowned reputation, stopped arguing.

January 42, Konoha 10.

Full marks on the written test.

The Three Bodies Technique is perfect.

Genichi Kishita passed his graduation exam without any surprises and received the headband that symbolizes a ninja.

Shizune and the others were still in class, so no one gathered around to watch Genichi pass the test.

At the school gate, Futaki Ryusei said to Kishita Genichi, "Genichi, from now on you are a formal ninja. I hope you can maintain the same spirit you had at school."

"Your instructor is an excellent ninja; you should learn from him."

"Also, you must get along well with your companions. During the mission, you will be able to entrust each other with your backs and your lives."

"Also, never underestimate any of your enemies during missions."

Genichi Shushita was deeply moved by these words of advice; he was a very responsible teacher.

He nodded earnestly: "Don't worry, Professor Ryusei, I've got it."

Futaki Ryusei waved his hand: "Alright, go and rejoin your companions!"

Under the tree, Genichi bowed respectfully, then used his Instantaneous Movement Technique to leave.

His figure leaped across the rooftops, while Xuan Yi, standing under the tree, was very curious about who his team leader would be.

A Jonin is definitely a Jonin.

There are quite a few Jonin in Konoha, but he doesn't know many of them by name.

Especially in this era.

In reality, Genichi under the tree could have continued to live a life of hiding.

He overdraws his future ten years' worth of money every year, and if this keeps piling up, he can always make progress; his brain isn't bad.

But what good is mastering so many ninjutsu techniques?

With insufficient chakra, he had to be extremely careful with his resources, which prevented him from unleashing his full potential. Therefore, after mastering two genjutsu and the Konoha-ryu swordsmanship, and finding it increasingly difficult to obtain resources, Genichi Koushi chose to graduate.

Of course, there is another reason.

That means, barring any unforeseen circumstances, Konoha's White Fang will commit suicide next year.

Although the possibility of getting involved in this matter is extremely small.

But if we do a little more, and even borrow the next ten years' worth of resources next year, let's see if we can make a difference.

What if?
If we can get on the good side of Konoha's White Fang, our network of connections can be expanded even further.

This can help boost one's strength.

"I hope the teachers and teammates will all give it their all."

Genichi under the tree was filled with anticipation, but also a little apprehensive.

After all, being a ninja requires risking your life.

Unreliable teammates will lead to an early death.

Soon, Genichi arrived at a rooftop and saw his teacher and companions.

Good guy!
Won the jackpot!

"Teacher Sakumo!"

Xuan Yi took two quick steps under the tree, then bowed in greeting.

Yes, the middle-aged man in front of them was none other than Sakumo Hatake.

There were two other men nearby, both around fifteen or sixteen years old, who were also sizing up Xuan Yi, this genius under the tree.

Sakumo Hatake knew Genichi Kinoshita, and they were even somewhat acquainted. He smiled and said, "Genichi, introduce yourself so everyone can get to know you."

"Hmm. For example, your favorite foods, foods you don't like, and areas you're good at."

Shuxia Xuan stood up immediately: "Yes!"

"I am Genichi Kinoshita. My favorite food is dango, and my least favorite food is also dango."

"I am good at water-style techniques. It would be best if there were water in the environment, because I don't have much chakra."

“In addition, there is illusion.”

"Mastering a medical ninjutsu allows for temporary treatment."

"In addition, they also possess sealing techniques."

The two people beside Sakumo Hatake looked at Genichi under the tree with somewhat strange expressions.

Is this really a recent graduate?

You know so much? You must be joking.

Did they start cultivating from birth?

Not to mention them, even Sakumo Hatake was taken aback.

He had information on Genichi Kinoshita, but it was limited to Water Release, Sealing Techniques, Illusion Techniques, and Sword Techniques. He didn't expect Genichi Kinoshita to also know Medical Ninjutsu.

This is simply all-around amazing.

"Truly a genius!"

Sakumo Hatake sighed inwardly, then looked at the two people beside him.

The man with black hair, dressed in a black robe with a stand-up collar and a sword pouch, said, "My name is Uchiha Hajime. I am skilled in Uchiha-style swordsmanship, taijutsu, shuriken throwing, genjutsu, and fire release."

"My favorite food is meatballs, and my least favorite food is natto."

It really is the Uchiha.

Xuan Yi thought to himself under the tree, then greeted him, "Senior Lang Yi."

Uchihachi had a cold expression, but he said, "No need to be so polite, just call me Rangichi."

Xuan nodded under the tree and looked at the other person.

The man had long gray hair tied in a ponytail and smiled, saying, "My name is Yamanaka En. My favorite food is ramen, and my least favorite food is sweets."

"Skilled in perception and illusion."

Good heavens, they're from the mountain tribe.

Genichi greeted her politely as always.

Yamanaka En looked like a gentle person: "Xuan Yi, you can just call me En."

Xuan Yi under the tree readily accepted good advice.

After the self-introductions were finished, Hatake Sakumo finally spoke: "Alright, now that we've met, let's get down to business."

"Xuanyi, is everything alright?"

Genichi Shushita immediately nodded: "Teacher Sakumo, no problem."

He had been reminded by Futaki Ryusei yesterday that he would be leaving the village to carry out a mission today, so he had made preparations in advance. At this moment, he was carrying a backpack and had a short sword hanging at his waist.
