Naruto: By lying low and hiding, he eventually became the leader of the Legendary Sannin.

Hearing this, even Hiashi finally couldn't help but ask:

"No, Kagura-sensei, aren't you planning to train with us?"

However, upon hearing his words, Kagura looked at him with surprise and said with a puzzled expression:

"You think I need to train with you guys for this stuff?"

You're not stupid; you could probably learn that little bit of content in half a day at most.

"You're not students anymore. You're all just genin, so stop being so naive."

Upon hearing this utterly shameless statement, even the usually composed Hiashi couldn't help but bulge a vein on his forehead.

You know there's only a small amount of content, so how dare you say you stayed up all night last night?

Kagura completely ignored their emotions, walked to the shade of a large tree, lay down with her hands behind her head, and continued to give instructions:

"Alright, go practice now."

Then in the afternoon, I was taken to the mission center to start receiving missions.

With your current skill level, you can only take on D-level missions at most.

Oh, right, there should be an old lady, like an NPC, who will post a quest to find a cat.

Let's start by finding the cat~

After saying this, Kagura closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

Seeing Kagura already snoring, the three exchanged helpless glances and finally could only reluctantly follow his instructions to start reading the booklet.

The so-called squad training manual is actually just a simple list of formations and hand signals for three-person squads.

Just as Kagura said, the three of them learned this skill on their own in less than half a day.

Seeing that Kagura was still asleep, they did not go up to disturb her, but instead ran to the mission center as he had instructed.

Whether by coincidence or not, their first mission after becoming genin was indeed to help an old lady find her cat...

As for Kagura, he leisurely slept there all day until evening.

There is no way...

Tsunade has been saying lately that she wants to have a child.

Kagura really did stay up almost all night last night, but the things she did were a little different.

Who can understand the pain that married men sometimes experience...?

He finally got enough sleep as the sun began to set, and stretched out his arms to yawn.

He had just opened his eyes when he saw the three little creatures covered in leaves standing in front of him.

Minato was also holding a struggling black cat in his arms.

Um...

This black cat looks somewhat familiar...

These were the three members of the Minato trio who had just completed their first D-class mission.

Judging from their appearance, finding the cat was clearly much more difficult than they had imagined.

Seeing this scene, Kagura smiled and said to them:

"Alright, take the cat back to complete the mission, and that concludes today. We'll meet here again at this time tomorrow."

After saying that, Kagura, who hadn't done anything all day, stood up and went home decisively.

The three little ones left behind exchanged helpless glances and could only follow his instructions to slowly walk toward the mission center.

Watching Kagura's retreating figure, Minato's eyes revealed a hint of confusion.

Why does Kagura-sensei seem so different from his previous image? How come he's become so...lazy?

So, has Kagura really become lazy?

Yes, he is.

However, what he said was true; in the early stages of the team's training, it really made no difference whether he was there or not.

Even if his subordinates weren't geniuses like Minato, but just ordinary people, the initial training they needed would be quite simple.

However, these training and experiences are necessary for these newly promoted genin.

The squad's formation and command coordination training is to develop their essential foundation in teamwork.

Even Kagura and the "Three Legendary Sannin" trained for nearly a month before truly gaining Hiruzen Sarutobi's approval.

As for D-level missions...

If you can't even catch a cat properly, how can you possibly catch those enemies outside?

No matter how strong your abilities are in the ninja academy, they are useless if you can't apply them in practice.

Therefore, genin must start with D-rank missions, which is an essential form of training.

Since it's a form of training, Kagura's laissez-faire approach to training is extremely beneficial for them.

Of course, whether this so-called free-range training was genuine or just an excuse Kagura used to slack off remains to be seen.

In reality, Kagura was far from as relaxed as she appeared on the surface.

Over the years, a hidden danger has weighed on his mind like a heavy stone.

The hidden danger is: Where did "Xiao" and his gang go?

Chapter 8 Konoha's Platinum Generation

During the two years following the ceasefire of the Second Shinobi World War, the entire shinobi world enjoyed a rare period of peace.

Kagura remembered reading a quote in her previous life: "War is a process of redistributing social interests."

After some people are sacrificed, those who survive can gain new benefits.

In the years following the Fourth Shinobi World War, this idea was fully experienced.

Whether it was due to the increased number of missions resulting from the collapse of the small country's ninja village, or the distribution of benefits after the death of its inhabitants.

In any case, the five major countries have all experienced varying degrees of economic leaps in the past two years.

In this prosperous state, people seem to have slowly forgotten the threats lurking in the darkness.

But Kagura will not forget.

In recent years, Madara Uchiha, along with the entire Akatsuki organization, seemed to have vanished into thin air, disappearing without a trace.

Although Kagura was well aware of Madara Uchiha's ultimate goal, which was to use the Ten-Tails to create the so-called Infinite Tsukuyomi, thereby creating a perfect world in his mind.

However, even he himself is now unsure how Madara Uchiha's scheme will proceed.

Because of his "butterfly" meddling, many things in this world have completely deviated from their original course.

Madara Uchiha, who was originally supposed to be hiding in the shadows plotting, has been appearing frequently in this world.

The Six Paths of Pain, which originally belonged to Nagato, have now become Madara Uchiha's skills.

Even the Akatsuki organization appeared in this world decades earlier than he knew.

Because she didn't know the reason behind Madara Uchiha's "perfect body," even Kagura was completely unsure of what Madara Uchiha would do next.

The information I possessed in my previous life seems to have become completely useless now.

In the past two years, he had considered searching for the whereabouts of the Akatsuki organization.

However, for a group of cunning individuals like Madara, Danzo, and Hanzo, if they are determined to hide, then you simply cannot find them.

Therefore, amidst the peaceful landscape of these past few years, Madara and his Akatsuki organization have been like a Damocles' sword hanging over Kagura's heart.

Fortunately, some events in this world still follow the wheel of fate.

For example, Jiraiya.

Although Minato was originally supposed to become Jiraiya's disciple, he somehow became Kagura's disciple instead.

However, Jiraiya, far away in the Land of Rain, still followed the guidance of fate and took in two new disciples.

After the ceasefire, whether it was because he witnessed the tragic changes of the Battle of the Valley or because of the reflections brought about by years of war, he was motivated to fight.

After witnessing Kagura's wedding, Jiraiya once again began his plan to travel around the world.

But this time, he chose those small countries that had suffered from the ravages of war as his destinations.

The letters that were sent back to Kagura and the others by toads every month became the only way for Konoha to know his whereabouts.

In his most recent letters, he mentioned that he had arrived in the Land of Rain.

On this land that had almost become ruins, he discovered two talented teenagers and took them in as his disciples.

When Kagura saw the names Yahiko and Konan written on the letter, he couldn't help but marvel at the fateful coincidence.

If it weren't for the fact that he tricked Nagato's mother into coming to Konoha beforehand, Nagato would be studying at the Ninja Academy right now.

It's likely that the three true leaders of the Akatsuki organization will reunite in the Land of Rain once again.

What reassured Kagura somewhat was that, aside from Jiraiya's experience, Konoha Village had followed the original timeline's arrangement in recent years, resulting in the birth of many new lives.

The "Platinum Generation" of Konoha that he remembered began to appear one after another.

The first one to bear the brunt was Sakumo Hatake, who finally had a boy several years after his marriage.

That's right, the boy's name is Kakashi Hatake.

Of course, at only two years old, he has not yet shown his talent.

The Sixth Hokage, who graduated as a Genin at age 5, became a Chunin at age 6, and a Jonin at age 12, is now just a snotty-nosed little kid.

As his lifelong rival, Might Guy also came into this world.

Unlike Kakashi, he had only just learned to stand when his father put him in a green bodysuit and began training him in taijutsu outside Konoha Village.

At the same time, names familiar to Kagura, such as Kurenai Yuhi and Rin Nohara, gradually began to appear in Konoha Village.

It is worth mentioning that, as his teacher, Hiruzen Sarutobi, in his forties, actually had another son.

This child is none other than Sarutobi Asuma.
