Now that Nawaki is in his class, it's not a good thing. In fact, it puts a lot of pressure on Sakumo.

During the Second Shinobi World War, Hiruzen Sarutobi used the pretext of war to massively draw soldiers from the Senju clan, including Nawaki Senju. He then solemnly promised the Senju clan that Orochimaru would protect Nawaki.

However, Nawaki, as Orochimaru's disciple, failed to protect him (or perhaps he was completely unable to, for example, being ambushed by his own people). He accidentally fell into an explosive tag trap, which led to Nawaki's death, and his internal organs were also ripped out.

This anger made Orochimaru the outlet for the Senju clan's frustration. Although Orochimaru made great contributions in the Land of Rain and the Land of Earth, he still could not offset the negative impact of Nawaki's death.

In fact, Orochimaru's dissatisfaction with the Third Hokage began at this time. He was inexplicably used by Orochimaru as a tool to attack the powerful clans, and then casually discarded after being used.

Of course, there must be many details involved, but Shen Qiu could already roughly deduce the outline of the matter.

A great man once said, "I have never hesitated to speculate about people's hearts with the worst intentions." Similarly, Shen Qiu has "never hesitated to speculate about Hiruzen Sarutobi with the worst intentions."

While pondering, Shen Qiu arrived at the gate.

"Ah Qiu, why are you so late?" Kobayashi Ruri asked, rubbing the hem of her clothes with some confusion.

"Hmph, you're late on the first day of class assignments, hurry up and apologize to Mr. Sakumo!" Nawaki said rather displeased.

"Something happened at the Ninja Academy. You all finished your exams early, so you might not know. During my exam, some unexpected things caused a mess, and Teacher Tamurayama even fainted."

At this point, Shen Qiu couldn't help but sigh. He didn't know what Tamurayama was up to, but judging from his attitude in giving the scores, he and Ogawa Osamu were most likely acting on the orders of the Hyuga clan.

Thinking of this, a cold glint appeared in Shen Qiu's eyes. The Hyuga clan had gone too far in forcing him, and he would avenge this sooner or later.

"How is this going?"

After hearing Shen Qiu's answer, Shuo Mao also became interested.

"...Who knew that I did quite well on my graduation exam in the Three Bodies Technique, and Professor Umino gave me all three As, but Professor Tamura and Professor Ogawa insisted on giving me three Ds. Professor Umino questioned Professor Tamura about the source of these grades, and he was speechless for a long time."

"In the end, for some reason, he simply fainted. When Mr. Ogawa saw that Mr. Tamura had fainted, he immediately said that he would go to the ninja hospital to help find a doctor. As a result, the exam was temporarily suspended. Later, two teachers he didn't recognize arrived and the exam was finally over."

At this point, Shen Qiu couldn't help but make a helpless gesture.

Sakumo couldn't help but chuckle. He really hadn't expected the Hyuga clan to be so petty, unwilling to let go of even a ten-year-old boy, and insisting on making things awkward for everyone.

Shen Qiu glanced at Xiaolin Liuli from the side. It was very likely that it was not a coincidence that she was assigned to Shuo Mao's class. There was a high probability that she was assigned to one of the twenty classes every year. She was assigned to none of the classes, but "coincidentally" ended up in the tenth class.

"Does it mean Shuo Mao, or perhaps..."

Thinking of this, Shen Qiu couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi! He was a master of Machiavellian tactics, creating a golden age for Konoha. His cunning was far more profound than Danzo's.

By using Kobayashi Ruri to win over Uchiha Aki, they tightly bound him to the "Will of Fire" ship.

Because this person is too "perfect" in every aspect, to the point of being abnormally perfect.

Of course, this comes at a price. The price is that Danzo becomes his dark side. Shen Qiu doesn't like these two people. Neither of them are good people, but they can't be called bad fathers either.

After all, one's position determines one's perspective and stance. Shen Qiu is not in a position to interfere in politics, but judging from certain things, he does indeed dislike these two people.

"Alright, alright, let's begin our first lesson in class placement—the Chakra Ability Test!"

P.S.: Please give me flowers and subscribe...

Chapter 112: Chakra Attribute - Hidden Mist Plot

"Alright, let's begin our first lesson today—testing chakra attributes!" As he spoke, Sakumo pulled out three sheets of white paper, which were the chakra testing papers.

"Most ninjas are born with only one chakra nature, and a few ninjas have two chakra natures, but these are not problems. Some natures can be acquired through training when one reaches the Jonin level. Most Jonin have more than three natures."

"Who comes first?"

Sakumo held up the paper in his hand and asked.

"Me first, me first!" Sure enough, the first person was the rather lively Nawaki. He took a piece of paper from Sakumo's hand and then carefully poured chakra into it.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the entire chakra tester's chart shattered into pieces.

"It's earth-elemental!"

The paper was completely shattered, which was Earth Release chakra. However, Nawaki was quite disappointed after seeing the shattered paper. But this was within Sakumo's expectations, as the Senju clan's Wood Release was a product of the fusion of Earth Release and Water Release.

Generally speaking, members of the Senju clan are either earth-attribute, water-attribute, or both.

"What? It's not dual-attribute...-.."

As the heir of a large family, Nawaki naturally knows more than Ruri. It is a consensus among everyone that ninjas with dual attributes have an advantage in learning ninjutsu.

"Although I don't have dual attributes, earth is one of my inherent attributes. I will teach you all the earth-style ninjutsu I know without missing a single detail—provided, of course, that you are able to learn them."

Sakumo said gently.

After hearing Sakumo's words, Nawaki, who had been somewhat disappointed, became excited again. Sakumo was already quite famous in Konoha, and being able to inherit his legacy was a rare and precious opportunity.

"I will definitely work hard!"

Shen Qiu couldn't help but chuckle. Kakashi's only other attributes besides lightning were earth, so he used earth-style techniques quite frequently, which led to him being jokingly called "Earth Shadow Kakashi" in later generations. He truly inherited Sakumo's style completely.

"Next, Ruri, you're on your way!"

"Eh, me?" Ruri seemed a little nervous, but she quickly calmed herself down and nervously took the chakra test paper from Sakumo's hand.

However, the next second—the entire chakra paper burst into flames, startling Kobayashi Ruri so much that she let go and fell to the ground.

"Oh no, oh no, I didn't control the amount of chakra properly!" Ruri's face turned pale. What should she do now?

"It's alright, it's fire attribute. But it's really surprising. I didn't expect that Ruri, who seems a bit introverted, would actually be a fire attribute user. Fire attribute is a very offensive ninjutsu, very good."

Finally, it's Shen Qiu's turn.

After taking a deep breath, Shen Qiu channeled his chakra into the chakra test paper. As he expected, one half of the paper was wet, while the other half tore open.

It has the attributes of wind and water.

"Oh?"

Sakumo was slightly surprised after seeing Shen Qiu's chakra nature. He wasn't surprised by Shen Qiu's dual nature, as there were still quite a few dual-nature ninjas each year, although there weren't as many as single-nature ninjas.

It is wind and water.

The Uchiha clan can be said to be the representatives of fire release techniques. If not 100%, then 99% of their clan members possess fire release attributes.

People from the Uchiha clan like Shen Qiu, who possess both elemental attributes but lack fire attribute, are extremely rare.

"Ugh, you bastard, you're really something! Not only have you awakened the Sharingan, but you also have dual-attribute chakra!" After seeing Shen Qiu's chakra attributes, Nawaki started yelling and shouting again.

"I can teach Earth Release and Fire Release, but Wind Release and Water Release are not my forte. If the Second Hokage were still alive, he would definitely have taken Akatsuki as his disciple. Such an Uchiha clansman is very rare."

Thinking of this, Sakumo couldn't help but sigh softly. Everyone thought that the Second Hokage treated the Uchiha clan very harshly, but that was not the case. You can see this from the series of policies he implemented after taking office.

He took Uchiha Kagami as his disciple, and later Kagami joined his guard. He created the Konoha Police Force and placed it under the management of the Uchiha clan. Even when some members of the Uchiha clan later attempted to rebel, he did not use this as an excuse to severely punish the Uchiha.

"Alright, alright, the chakra attribute test is over. Now let's begin today's first lesson—snatching the bell!"

As he spoke, Hatake Sakumo took a golden bell out of his pocket.

"What? Sakumo-sensei, are you a child? You want to play such a childish game?" Nawaki exclaimed, his eyes wide open, after seeing Sakumo Hatake take out the bell.

· ·Requesting flowers··· ···

"How about this: whoever manages to grab this bell among the three of you, I'll treat you all to ramen at the newly opened Ichiraku Ramen shop?"

Shen Qiu was speechless. He hadn't expected that the tradition of snatching bells had already started in this period. However, it was an excellent game that could help everyone understand the importance of teamwork.

"One, two, three, go!"

Meanwhile, at the Hokage's residence on the other side.

Unlike the previous private conversation between Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo, Hiruzen Sarutobi's office was packed with people, including Hiruzen Sarutobi himself:

He served as the Hokage's assistant to Shimura Danzo and was the leader of the Root organization.

The Hokage assists Mitokado Homura, and is responsible for advice and decision-making.

... ... ...

The Hokage assists Koharu Utatane, taking charge of strategy and logistics.

The Hokage assisted Akimichi Torifu and was in charge of the Anbu, serving as its head.

These people can all be considered "meritorious contributors" to Hiruzen Sarutobi. If Kagami Uchiha hadn't died, he should also have had a position here, responsible for making the highest-level policy decisions in Konoha.

There was dead silence in the office.

"I believe everyone has already seen the intelligence from the Land of Bears. Regarding the Land of Water's conspiracy this time, I'd like to know everyone's thoughts..."

Dan is Kato Dan, an elite Jonin of Konoha Village and Tsunade's future lover. He is currently a member of the Anbu and has been dispatched to the Land of Bears, located between the Land of Fire and the Land of Water, to carry out an intelligence gathering mission.

And in the very center of the table was the intelligence that Kato Dan had sent over by express courier.

"The Hidden Mist Village intends to attack the Hidden Uzushiogakure Village in the Land of Whirlpools in order to annex the Land of Whirlpools in one fell swoop!"

School ends at 4 p.m.

Exhausted, Rope Tree stared blankly at the sky like a dog. He had thought it would be easy to snatch the golden bell from Sakumo's hand, but the other party was so agile and fast that he was being completely fooled.

Fortunately, Uchiha Aki was resourceful and eventually succeeded in getting the bell from Sakumo-sensei.

"Alright, alright, let's go get some ramen now!"

"Huh? Wasn't it said that only the person who caught the bell could eat it?" Kobayashi Ruri exclaimed in surprise.
