Konoha's Hextech Ninja

Unfortunately, the gap between geniuses is much greater than the gap between a genius and an ordinary person.

Rin Nohara, a commoner genius who barely scrapes by, is far inferior to even ordinary ninja geniuses like Kurenai Yuhi, let alone top-tier geniuses.

Without special circumstances, Rin Nohara's maximum potential in this life would be at most Chunin level.

Perhaps being able to barely earn the title of 'Special Jonin' through medical ninjutsu or other special skills would already be the limit.

As for becoming a formal Jonin, it's almost impossible without special circumstances.

However, Yoruichi Yagami would not look down on her teammates for being weak.

To lower the overall strength of the team and better protect Kurenai Yuhi, having a weaker teammate is actually a good thing, as it provides a legitimate reason to refuse those difficult and dangerous missions.

Chapter 126 Tsunade: This brat only knows how to cause me trouble!

That afternoon, Kurenai brought some good news.

Rin Nohara is very interested in graduating early and joining the ninja team as soon as possible.

That makes sense.

As a child from a commoner family, Nohara Rin's family was not well-off, and the expenses of maintaining her ninja training were a great burden on her family.

It's perfectly normal for her to want to graduate early, become a full-fledged ninja, and earn mission rewards to supplement her family's income.

The only thing that made Nohara Rin somewhat worried was whether her skills met the requirements for graduating early.

"Your Three Body Techniques are very proficient, and your ninja tool throwing and taijutsu are also competent. You have more than reached the level of a genin."

After personally observing Rin Nohara's performance, Yoruichi Yagami commented, "You have a good talent for chakra control, and you could consider developing in the direction of a medical ninja. If we form a team, I will know medical ninjutsu, but I will take on a more central role in combat. If you can master medical ninjutsu, you will be of greater help to the team."

Yagami Yoruichi's understanding of the plot is his biggest advantage besides the system. Even though he is not familiar with Nohara Rin, he knows where her strengths lie.

Nohara Rin hasn't yet come into contact with medical ninjutsu, but Yagami Yoruichi is certain that she has a talent for it.

"Medical ninjutsu? Can I do it?" Nohara Rin looked worried, afraid that her talent was not enough and she would disappoint others.

"Medical ninjutsu requires a great deal of theoretical knowledge, as well as excellent chakra control. These are your strengths. As for your talent..."

Yagami Yoruichi took out a sealing scroll, sensed it for a moment, quickly formed hand seals, and took out a special chakra test strip from the sealing scroll, handing it to Nohara Rin, saying, "Inject your chakra into it. If there is a reaction, it means that you have the Yang Release attribute and have the foundation to learn medical ninjutsu."

Kurenai looked at the test strip that Yoruichi Yagami handed her, a curious expression on her face: "Is this a chakra test strip specifically for Yang Release? I've never seen one before, I've only seen Yin Release ones."

"You can try it too, but you probably don't have the Yang Release attribute." Yagami Yoruichi casually handed a test strip to Yuhi Kurenai.

Both of them channeled their chakra into the test strip, and the result was as expected.

Nohara Rin has the Yang Release attribute, while Yuhi Kurenai does not.

"Tch, what a disappointment!" Kurenai pouted, seemingly dissatisfied with the result.

Nohara Rin, however, showed a surprised expression.

Having the Yang Release attribute means having the foundation to learn medical ninjutsu.

She was well aware of the rarity of medical ninjas.

If she could learn some medical ninjutsu, even very simple and crude medical ninjutsu, it would be enough for her to have a place in Konoha.

"From now until graduation, you will all need to undergo special training."

Yagami Yoruichi looked at Nohara Rin and said, "Especially for you, the requirements for graduating early are more stringent than for graduating normally. Your theoretical courses are fine, but your practical skills are lacking. During this break, you must work hard to improve, and you also need to study medical knowledge. The pressure will be immense."

"I'm not afraid of hard work!" Nohara Rin quickly said, "Thank you, Yoruichi-kun, for giving me this opportunity. I will definitely work hard!"

For an ordinary person, it is difficult to even come into contact with the most basic D-rank ninjutsu, let alone the rare medical ninjutsu.

Yoruichi Yagami was willing to give her the opportunity to learn, and Rin Nohara naturally didn't want to lose this opportunity because she wasn't hardworking enough.

"Oh, right." Kurenai suddenly remembered something and said, "I heard that Ebisu is also planning to apply for early graduation. He said he wants to team up with two senior students from the previous year."

"Ebisu?" The image of a lecherous, sly ninja wearing sunglasses immediately popped into Yagami Yoruichi's mind.

Of course, Ebisu's current appearance is not the same as her future look.

In terms of grades, they are quite good in Class A.

But this is good, not because he is particularly talented, but because he started school late and was a year or two older than his classmates, so his body was more fully developed.

"Who are his teammates?" Yagami Yoruichi asked curiously.

If he wanted to graduate early, he had long had the idea of ​​graduating early, but Kakashi Hatake, who was still staying at the Ninja Academy for his own reasons, would definitely apply to graduate early as well once he found out.

Ebisu's strength is definitely not as good as Kakashi Hatake's, but if they team up, it would be a good choice.

At least it won't be too much of a drag on the team.

"She seems to be a senior member of the Aburame clan. I don't know much about the upperclassmen." Kurenai Yuhi shook her head.

"The Aburame clan?" A name instantly popped into Yagami Yoruichi's mind: Aburame Shino.

Of course, this period was still many years before Shino Aburame was born, and it is more likely to be his father, who is about the same age.

Her name... I think it was Aburame Shiki?

Yoruichi Yagami didn't have much of an impression of this character, but the Aburame clan has always been low-key, yet their strength is not weak. They are all named characters in the original work, and their battle records are quite outstanding. They would definitely not be a drag on the team.

"Only two people? I'll talk to Kakashi later and see if they have a chance to form an elite team." Yagami Yoruichi said casually, "If it's three talented geniuses, the village will most likely send a strong Jonin to lead the team."

This matter actually has little to do with Yoruichi Yagami; it's mainly for Kakashi Hatake's sake.

After all, she was a good partner and also Yagami Yoruichi's designated 'future subordinate'.

This will allow Kakashi Hatake to grow up better, and will also make it easier for Yoruichi Yagami to control him when he seizes power in Konoha in the future.

Kurenai Yuhi and Rin Nohara failed to discern Yoruichi Yagami's thoughts and were somewhat puzzled by her ideas.

Neither of the two women pressed for an answer, saving Yagami Yoruichi the trouble of explaining.

"See you at the training ground later, and remember to bring your ninja tool bag." Yagami Yoruichi waved to Nohara Rin, took Yuhi Kurenai's hand, and ignored the snorting as he headed towards the ninja academy.

Meanwhile, a shadow clone rushed home to find Tsunade and report its 'team composition'.

However, no trace of Tsunade was found in the Senju clan's territory.

The shadow clones searched far and wide before finally finding Tsunade at the Konoha Casino.

"Teacher, stop gambling, you can't win." Yagami Yoruichi could tell from the distribution of chips on the table that Tsunade had lost a lot again, so she quickly went over and pulled Tsunade out.

"You little brat, do you underestimate my gambling skills?!" Tsunade instantly bristled.

What she can't accept the most is that someone says she's bad at gambling.

"No, teacher, don't you really have any idea?" Yagami Yoruichi looked at Tsunade in surprise and asked, "If you're so good at gambling, what's with all those IOUs at home?"

The boxes were filled with IOUs, ranging from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.

Even Yagami Yoruichi didn't dare to calculate how much this box of IOUs was worth.

Even if they sold the Thousand Hands Clan's territory, they might not be able to pay it back.

However, Yagami Yoruichi said that, but he knew the truth in his heart.

Tsunade's gambling skills are actually very sophisticated, but because of the almost causal nature of her weapon—that she always loses when she gambles—Tsunade always ends up in a losing streak.

The fold will only be made when something bad is about to happen.

"You and I……"

When the topic of the IOUs at home was brought up, Tsunade was immediately speechless.

She suddenly regretted it; she shouldn't have let Yagami Yoruichi do the big cleaning. At least before the big cleaning, she should have hidden that box of IOUs so that Yagami Yoruichi wouldn't see it.

Now that all those IOUs were exposed to Yagami Yoru, she instantly lost all her authority as a teacher.

Unable to refute her, Tsunade decided to resort to unreasonable tactics and forcefully suppress Yagami Yoruichi as her teacher.

"Teacher, I have something important to say."

Seeing that Tsunade's expression was off, Yagami Yoichi quickly changed the subject: "My team members have been decided, and I plan to graduate after the next semester."

"Oh." Tsunade nodded and asked, "You and that little girl from the Yuhi family, who's the other one?"

“Nohara Rin, a commoner genius, is very strong in theory and chakra control, and also has the Yang Release attribute.” Yagami Yoruichi stated her purpose: “I plan to teach her medical ninjutsu and have her serve as the medical ninja in the team.”

Tsunade glanced at Yagami Yoru a few times and nodded, saying, "You can teach her basic medical ninjutsu as long as she can learn it. However, you can't teach her Super Strength or sealing techniques, and you can't teach her the Chaotic Body Charge technique either."

Tsunade is dedicated to promoting the medical ninja system and has long since made all the basic medical ninjutsu public.

However, the core secret techniques of the Senju and Uzumaki clans cannot be easily taught.

Yagami Yoruichi is her disciple, and can learn from her freely.

But Nohara Rin?

Tsunade has no interest in taking on another disciple.

This answer did not surprise Yagami Yoruichi.

“I know what I’m doing.” Yagami Yoruichi nodded and said, “I plan to teach her some basic medical ninjutsu first. If she progresses quickly enough, I will gradually teach her more advanced medical ninjutsu.”

"It seems you're planning to develop into an all-around ninja." Tsunade guessed Yagami Yoruichi's thoughts.

Yagami Yoruichi smiled and said, "Teacher, with my talent, it would be a waste to only be a medical ninja."

Medical ninjutsu cannot save the ninja world, let alone fight against the Otsutsuki clan that came from the sky.

In this chaotic world, strength is the only thing that matters.

“Your talent…” Tsunade thought of Yoruichi Yagami’s freakish physique and chakra reserves, and was speechless for a moment: “When you come of age, your chakra reserves might even surpass Mito’s. With that amount of chakra, even if your ninjutsu talent is a bit lacking, you can still accelerate your training with Shadow Clone Jutsu. If you only learn medical ninjutsu, it is indeed a bit of a waste.”

"My plan is that I will be the main combat force in the team, Red will be in charge of illusion magic to restrain the enemy, and Rin will be in charge of logistics and medical care," Yagami Yoruichi said, explaining her thoughts. She continued, "At that time, I will have to trouble you, Teacher, to lead the team."

Despite being called the team leader, given Tsunade's personality, she would definitely be a hands-off manager, leaving everything to herself.

"I know!" Tsunade deliberately feigned impatience. "You're always causing me trouble!"

Chapter 127 Rank Promotion, The New Hextech

"Hey, Yoruichi Yagami!"

A somewhat familiar voice came from behind. Yagami Yoruichi turned around and saw Sarutobi Asuma, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

I still remember when I first entered the school in the first year, Sarutobi Asuma provoked me, and then I crushed him with the high physical attribute brought by the Hextech Prowess of "Mind Over Matter".

In subsequent challenges, Sarutobi Asuma suffered increasingly crushing defeats, seemingly realizing his own inadequacy. Furthermore, Kurenai Yuhi's heart was entirely devoted to Yoruichi Yagami, and knowing he had no chance, she stopped bothering him.

By the time he reached second grade, he hardly ever came to school anymore, and he seemed to be doing nothing all day.

Why are they suddenly contacting me? Do they think I've proven myself capable and now they want to be tortured?

Yagami Yoruichi looked up at Sarutobi Asuma and asked, "What is it?"

If she really wanted to suffer, Yagami Yoruichi wouldn't care that Hiruzen Sarutobi had a son late in life and how much he doted on this youngest son.

They won't be beaten to death or maimed, but they will definitely be taught a good lesson.

"I heard that you all plan to graduate early?" Sarutobi Asuma asked.

"Us?" Yagami Yoruichi thought for a long time but still couldn't figure out who Sarutobi Asuma meant by "us." She was too lazy to think about it and simply nodded and said, "That's about it."

"I understand!" Sarutobi Asuma grabbed a piece of paper and headed toward the teachers' office.

In the instant they passed each other, Yagami Yoruichi noticed that the paper had the words "Application for Early Graduation" written on it.

Do you also want to graduate early?

Yagami Yoruichi shook his head, too lazy to meddle in other people's business.

Sarutobi Asuma's life or death has nothing to do with me.

As Yagami Yoruichi entered the classroom, her five senses keenly detected that many students were discussing applying to graduate early.

Somehow the news spread that a few of us wanted to apply for early graduation, and as a result, a whole group of people started clamoring to graduate early as well.

The more people apply, the more people will follow suit.

As a result, almost all students in Class A, except for a few bottom-ranked students who knew they had absolutely no chance of getting accepted, applied for early graduation.

Even Yoruichi Yagami didn't expect things to escalate to this extent.

However, Yagami Yoruichi was too lazy to worry about things that didn't concern her.

"The application has been submitted, and there will be an assessment later, but this is just a formality for us." Yagami Yoruichi said to Yuhi Kurenai and Nohara Rin, "I've already talked to the teacher about the class assignments. The three of us will be in the same team, with Tsunade-sensei as our team leader. However, Tsunade-sensei's personality... well, anyway, I'll be in charge of most of the team's affairs."
