Chapter 164 Naruto: Using Job Titles at Work
After exercising and digesting his food, Naruto felt much better.

"go home!"

Whoosh!
As the words fell, the space rippled, and Naruto's figure completely disappeared into the desert.

The village was as peaceful and harmonious as ever, with no trace of the atmosphere before the war.

War is too far removed from Konoha.

People had long been accustomed to this peace, and Naruto was unsure whether it was a good thing or a bad thing!
However, this is not his concern for the time being.

Naruto still has things to do.

For example, going to the logistics department to pick up a vest and update files.

From this day forward, Naruto Uzumaki will shed his status as a genin and become a glorious jonin!
This is naturally the content of the signed treaty.

After all, Naruto had long coveted the title of 'Jonin'.

When Naruto received the title of Genin a few months ago, the bonus from that title amazed him.

If even genin are like this, then jonin must be able to take off!

As for whether he's qualified or not?

Naruto felt that in terms of strength, he was more than capable of becoming a Jonin.

experience?

With the memories of Danzo and Raikage A, they have no shortage of Jonin experience!

even,

There are probably not many ninjas in the entire Hidden Leaf Village who are more experienced than him.

Naruto went to the logistics department first to get a vest.

These green vests are a common sight in the village.

This is standard equipment for ninjas of Chunin level and above.

Both Iruka-sensei and Kakashi-sensei, who are teachers, often wear this kind of vest.

This vest has many pockets, making it fully functional and taking into account both protection and space.

"Finally, I've shed my genin status."

After putting on the vest, Naruto touched the vest he was wearing and muttered to himself.

He touched the vest up and down and found it to be surprisingly lightweight.

It is said to have good defensive capabilities as well.

After receiving his vest, Naruto had to report to another place—the Jonin team.

Jonin!

The elite among the elite ninjas are the absolute backbone of the ninja village.

They are also the backbone of every ninja village.

At the same time, Jonin also participate in many important decisions of the ninja village, such as the previous selection of Hokage.

The number of Jonin in each village is extremely small, and they are highly valued by the village.

For example, Konoha.

To facilitate meetings and discussions among the Jonin, Konoha established a special Jonin Team, which most Jonin could join.

Naruto, who had also been promoted to Jonin, naturally chose to join.

He wanted to find out who hadn't voted for him when choosing the Hokage!
Upon arriving at the Jonin's duty room, Naruto saw a figure that was all too familiar to him.

The white-haired guy sitting behind the table, holding a little yellow book and reading it, isn't he...
"Kakashi-sensei?"

Naruto was momentarily stunned.

I had heard long ago that Kakashi-sensei had been given an important position in the Jonin class, and I was surprised to see him today.

"It's Naruto, you've come."

Kakashi put down the yellow book and raised his dead fish eyes.

His eyes remained calm and composed, as if he had expected this all along.

'Another twelve-year-old Jonin?'

Kakashi wasn't surprised that Naruto became a Jonin, but he felt a little emotional for a moment.

"Are you on duty here?" Naruto stepped forward and handed over his documents.

Kakashi still looked lazy and sleepy, as if he had been unwillingly dragged here to wait for him.

When Naruto asked this, Kakashi scratched his head and said, "Uh, I guess so."

Naruto immediately understood from his expression.

As expected. It's probably another arrangement by the third generation.

However, seeing a familiar figure was alright.

Naruto grinned broadly and began showing off his newly acquired vest. "Kakashi-sensei, how is it? Cool, right?"

"handsome!"

Kakashi gave a brief compliment.

Wearing a vest makes him look even more like that person.

After submitting the materials, Naruto looked at him with considerable curiosity, "Kakashi-sensei, what have you been busy with lately?"

Naruto hadn't seen Kakashi at several gatherings and wondered what Kakashi had been up to lately.

"Forehead,"

Mentioning this, Kakashi's forehead creased with a frown.

What else can it do?

Having trained such a talented student, of course he's busy giving lectures and sharing his teaching experience!
I have to pay back all the conditions I promised in the past few days.

In addition, there was the Third Hokage's arrangement to have him teach several classes to the Jonin class.

The theme is—"How I trained Naruto Uzumaki!"

These topics are giving him a real headache.

Either a good friend, or a deep request from the third generation.

What burdens, missions, the future of Konoha—as a Konoha ninja, he couldn't escape them.

Teaching in front of so many people is a truly novel experience.

Listening to those people's praise, Kakashi even began to doubt whether he really had a talent for teaching.

"Hey!"

Kakashi sighed inwardly. Hana admired and understood him, but his pursuit of Obito's matter was repeatedly delayed.

It seems like it's going to be a long time from now.

"Let's explore teaching methods." That was all Kakashi could say in the end.

"is it?"

Teaching? Discussion?
Naruto was completely baffled for a moment.

It's not about discussing how to train these genin... wait, it's about Sasuke and his genin, isn't it?
Naruto gave Kakashi a strange look. He never expected that Kakashi-sensei would have such an ambitious side.

I originally wanted to chat with Kakashi a bit more.

Suddenly, Naruto sensed two familiar streams of chakra appearing.

Sasuke and Sakura are back.

"Kakashi-sensei, I'll be treating everyone to dinner at BBQ Q tonight, remember to come!"

"Oh, right." Naruto, who was about to leave using the Flying Thunder God Technique, paused for a moment and winked at him with his right eye. "Don't forget to take Hana-neechan with you. See you tonight."

Whoosh!
As soon as he finished speaking, Naruto vanished in a flash without a sound.

"Flying Thunder God?"

Kakashi took out the oddly shaped three-pronged kunai from his pocket, his face showing reminiscence.

Meanwhile, five kilometers away from Konoha.

Swoosh~ Swoosh~
Sasuke and Sakura were leaping and hopping through the woods when suddenly, a figure flashed into view ahead.

rustling~~
Sasuke and Sakura both slammed on the brakes, stopping abruptly at the sight of this figure.
"Naruto?"

Sakura spoke up in surprise.

The figure got even closer and leaped in front of the two.

When will you?

As soon as Sasuke spoke, he noticed that Naruto was different today.

Naruto was wearing a green vest.

"So the results of the Chunin Exams are out? You became a Chunin?" Sasuke stepped forward and patted Naruto's vest, confirming it was indeed genuine.

The Chunin Exams were interrupted by an accident, and the results were being withheld. Sasuke even thought he wouldn't be able to advance to Chunin this year.

Seeing Naruto in that vest, I suddenly felt there was still hope.

"NO! NO!"

Naruto wagged a finger in front of Sasuke, emphasizing with a smug look, "Just to correct you, I'm not a Chunin, I'm a Jonin!"

"Jounin?"

Sasuke was still pondering the meaning of those words when Sakura exclaimed in surprise.

"You're already a Jonin? Naruto."

"Hehe, that's right."

"Wow, you're amazing! I asked before, and Kakashi-sensei, who holds the record for the highest-ranking Jonin in Konoha, was only twelve years old!" Sakura couldn't help but praise him.

However, Naruto felt that Sakura's tone sounded a bit like a green tea b*tch.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion.

"Ah!"

Sasuke let out a cold snort.

Seeing Naruto's smug look, he immediately understood why Naruto had come here.

Show off!
Sasuke learned this word from Naruto.

But at this moment, Naruto embodied this word perfectly.

Naruto is already a Jonin?
Thinking about this, Sasuke was still quite unconvinced. But when he thought about Naruto's strength, he was speechless for a moment.

Sasuke was actually quite indifferent to the Chunin Exams.

His purpose in participating in the Chunin Exams was simply to verify his own strength and to see the true gap between him and Naruto.

However, staring at the imposing Naruto in front of him, Sasuke felt a pang of envy for a moment.

'When will I be able to become a Jonin?' Sasuke wondered.

"What are you thinking about, Sasuke? Are you envious?"

Upon hearing this, a black line appeared on Sasuke's face.

"Naruto! What did you do last night?" He immediately changed the subject.

Sasuke felt that it was because Naruto was not there last night that he couldn't find his teacher, Hyo-sensei, to study with, which caused him to fall behind in both strength and progress, thus preventing him from becoming a Jonin.

Naruto sensed a hint of reproach in the tone.

"Genin, watch your tone when you talk to me!"

"Naruto, you..."

"Ah,"

Naruto glanced at him again, "Sass, remember that, use your job title when you're working."

"Hehehe~~~"

Hearing the two bickering, Sakura hid to the side and covered her mouth to laugh.

Naruto glanced at her in surprise, completely bewildered by Sakura's fighting style.

As Sasuke's devoted follower, shouldn't you bravely stand up and defend Sasuke's image at this time?

can't read!
Naruto said he was increasingly confused about the situation between the two.

The limited knowledge of love I had in my past life is no longer sufficient.

Naruto glanced at the fuming Sasuke, unsure whether he was angry at himself or at Sasuke for not being strong enough.

Take another look at the smiling Sakura.

Alright, I've shown off enough, time to go!

"Ghana~"

In an instant, consciousness locked onto the chakra of another familiar person within its perception range.

swoosh~
In another instant, Naruto appeared in an unfamiliar place.

He flashed a bright smile, "Haha, how did you know I'd been promoted to Jonin?"

The answer he received was not a joyful, familiar shout, but an incoming sword.

whoosh-

A large, gleaming sword came slashing down.

Naruto tilted his head back and used the momentum to do a backflip. Once he was standing still, he lightly leaped up and his hand was already grabbing the back of the person's head.

thump—

With a gentle press, the person's face made intimate contact with the ground.

The ground shattered, and his head turned into mush.

"Naruto!"

Shikamaru breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank goodness you came."

He had just used the Shadow Binding Technique to control these bandits, but he didn't expect that one of them would be so strong and break free during a gap in his ninjutsu.

Naruto glanced around and realized that the three of them were tasked with clearing out this bandit hideout.

"Naruto~~"

Just as Naruto glanced around and before he could turn around, he heard a soprano voice calling out to him as Naruto lunged towards him.

'Damn, I forgot Shikamaru had this guy on his side.'

Naruto scratched his head. "Um, I'm treating everyone tonight at BBQ Q, you have to come!"

"Great!!!"

Upon hearing that Naruto was treating everyone, Choji's voice rang out instantly, completely silencing Ino.

"Ghana~"

Whoosh!
Before Ino could attack, Naruto dodged again.

This time, it appeared here in Class 10.

First, scan the surroundings. It's safe.

He then looked at the three of them with a smile, "How did you know I'd been promoted to Jonin?"
