Simultaneous Transmigration: From Douluo Continent to the Pinnacle

Uchiha Yao sat upright in the main seat, his gaze calmly fixed on the huge crystal ball floating in the center of the conference room.

The chakra light and shadow on the surface of the crystal ball flowed slowly like ripples on water, clearly reflecting the scene inside the Ninja Academy auditorium—those energetic young faces filled with boundless anticipation for their upcoming ninja careers.

Especially when looking at Hinata Hyuga, Naruto Namikaze, and Sasuke Uchiha, a barely perceptible look of satisfaction flashed in Yao Uchiha's eyes.

After the murmurs in the meeting room subsided slightly, he raised his right hand and gently tapped the antique mahogany table in front of him twice with his knuckles.

"Knock knock."

Two soft sounds, not loud, yet seemingly possessing a strange penetrating power, instantly drew everyone's attention.

"That's enough small talk."

He spoke. His voice was not loud, and his tone was calm and steady, yet it exuded an undeniable air of authority, causing everyone present to subconsciously regain their composure and sit up straight.

"Now, we will announce the class assignments for this year's graduates."

As he finished speaking, the space in front of him rippled slightly, and a pale blue light screen constructed from precise chakra appeared out of thin air, displaying a dense array of names, numbers, and the names of the corresponding Jonin instructors.

Uchiha Yao's gaze swept quickly across the light screen before he spoke:

"Based on a comprehensive evaluation of talent, potential, mindset, teamwork complementarity, and other factors, the most talented and promising individuals in this year's competition will be assigned the following roles—"

He paused slightly, his gaze slowly sweeping across the faces of every Jonin present, and announced, word by word:

"Naruto Namikaze, Sasuke Uchiha, and... Suigetsu Hozuki."

These three are assigned to the first class.

"The instructor of the Jonin is—Kakashi Hatake. That is, Team 7."

A brief silence fell over the room upon hearing this.

Several high-ranking officials who had initially appeared calm now showed expressions of surprise.

Hozuki Suigetsu?

That white-haired, eccentric boy who fled from the Land of Water with the Hozuki clan just two years ago?

Although he did inherit the rare water transformation technique passed down through generations of the Hozuki clan, his talent was also quite good.

But what if he were placed in the same class as Naruto Namikaze and Sasuke Uchiha, two universally recognized top geniuses among this year's graduates?

This configuration is quite unexpected.

Shouldn't the strongest three be Hinata Hyuga, Sasuke Uchiha, and Naruto Namikaze to form the strongest team, and then arrange the rest?

What puzzled them even more was that the Jonin instructor was Kakashi?

Kakashi's strength and experience are beyond question; he is the son of White Fang and one of the most powerful people in Konoha today.

Back then, he followed the Hokage to overthrow the dark rule of the Third Hokage and other high-ranking officials of Konoha, during which time he displayed amazing strength.

Later, he gained considerable power within Konoha, and in the eyes of some, his status was second only to Uchiha Yo, the Hokage, and Uchiha Mikoto and Senju Tsunade, the wives of the Hokage.

But Konoha today does have top-tier Jonin who are better at teaching geniuses or who have a deeper connection with these children.

For example, Itachi Uchiha, as Sasuke's biological older brother, is the most suitable candidate in terms of both strength and familial bond.

For example, Uchiha Shisui was also a top member of the Uchiha clan, whose mastery of genjutsu was unparalleled.

Even Minato Namikaze himself, who earned the title of "Yellow Flash" back then, was a top-tier powerhouse who was not eliminated despite being the grand-disciple of the Third Hokage. It is understandable that he would occasionally give his son personal guidance.

Handing these three children over to Kakashi... what exactly is he up to?

Seemingly sensing the doubts in everyone's hearts, Minato Namikaze, who had been sitting to the side with a gentle smile on his face, took the initiative to speak.

His voice was as gentle as ever, carrying a feeling as warm as a spring breeze, but the content of his words made everyone instantly understand the deeper meaning:

"This arrangement is my idea, and it's also the Hokage's idea."

He glanced at the reflection of his son in the crystal ball, his gaze filled with expectation and a hint of complexity:

"Naruto is my son, and Sasuke is of Uchiha blood. From birth, they have carried too much attention and expectation from the outside world, which is both an honor and a shackle."

"If I, or top-tier Uchiha shinobi like Itachi or Shisui, were to personally teach them, they would easily become confined within these frameworks. They would either live in my shadow or become hopelessly immersed in the glory of their clan."

"We would prefer that they have a strict teacher who won't make them dependent on him, and Kakashi would be a perfect fit."

"Using the most ordinary ninja team format, we will encounter, witness, and understand this real and cruel ninja world."

"Let them learn how to work well with their teammates, how to make independent judgments about situations, and how to find their own true ninja way through missions and trials, instead of being bound by the shadows of their parents or clans."

As he spoke, Minato Namikaze looked at Kakashi Hatake, his tone full of trust.

"He is strong enough to keep the situation under control and protect the students in critical moments."

"He is perceptive enough to understand the characteristics and inner world of each child."

"He also...understands well enough how to strike a delicate balance between necessary protection and timely letting go."

Kakashi Hatake had put down the kunai he was playing with at some point, and his previously lazy and relaxed gaze had now become serious and solemn.

He slowly straightened his back, took a step forward, and walked to the center of the conference room. He nodded to Uchiha Yao, who was seated in the main seat, and Namikaze Minato beside him.

"Hokage, Minato, I, Kakashi Hatake, solemnly accept the position of Jonin Instructor for Team 7, and I will certainly live up to your expectations."

Uchiha Yao nodded slightly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing with Kakashi's statement, but a hint of approval appeared in his eyes.

He then changed the subject and continued:

"The specific details of the class assignments will be announced later by Jonin-class representative Shikaku Nara. Next—"

He paused for a moment, his gaze becoming deeper and sharper than ever before, like two unsheathed blades, slowly sweeping across the faces of every elite Jonin present.

"Another announcement."

"Through a joint decision by the Daimyo of the Land of Fire and the high-ranking officials of Konoha, and after formal diplomatic channels, the other four great nations have been notified."

"The schedule will be officially confirmed this October."

"Next July—"

He spoke each word carefully, each syllable carrying immense force, striking the hearts of everyone present:

"Konohagakure will host a Super Chunin Exam—a competition that will encompass the five great nations and sweep across all ninja villages in the entire ninja world!"

The words fell.

The air in the entire conference room seemed to freeze completely at that moment.

Immediately, an invisible, scorching fighting spirit and a suffocatingly heavy atmosphere, like gunpowder thrown into a furnace, burst forth!

No one present was a fool.

Everyone instantly understood the weighty significance and profound meaning behind this message.

In recent years, under the iron-fisted governance and enlightened policies of Uchiha Yao, Konoha has developed at an astonishing pace. Its military strength has exceeded 100,000, its economy is booming like never before, and it has even absorbed several powerful clans from the Land of Water. The rapid expansion of its strength has already aroused deep fear and unease among the other four great ninja villages.

According to intelligence from the secret service, the high-ranking members of Kumogakure, Iwagakure, Kirigakure, and even the relatively closed Sunagakure have been secretly communicating more frequently in the past two years, and there is a growing trend of them forming a united front to counterbalance Konoha.

This unprecedented, large-scale Chunin Exam, on the surface, is a stage for genin to advance to intermediate ranks, and a platform for countries to showcase the power of their new generation.

But in fact--

This is the best window for all forces in the ninja world, especially the four great nations, to test Konoha's true strength and measure its real threat level!

At the same time, it is also an excellent opportunity for Konoha to show its strength, flaunt its power, and intimidate all sides to the entire ninja world!

This is a war without gunfire.

The outcome of this battle will directly impact the ninja world's landscape for years, even decades, to come!

"From this day forward—"

Uchiha Yao's voice broke the deathly silence of the conference room, carrying an unquestionable commanding tone:

"All registered genin squads in Konoha are hereby suspended from all long-term overseas missions and placed on full combat readiness!"

"There is only one goal—"

His sharp gaze swept across the entire room:

"In next year's Chunin Exams, we will sweep aside all competitors from other villages with an overwhelming advantage and seize the highest glory!"

"Let the entire ninja world see clearly—"

"Who is the protagonist of this era?"

"yes!!!"

The Jonin in the conference room, regardless of whether they were usually calm or lively, all straightened their postures and solemnly agreed.

In everyone's eyes burned a fierce fighting spirit and flame.

Just then—

A green figure, full of passion and enthusiasm, rushed out like a whirlwind!

"Kakashi!"

Clad in a green bodysuit and sporting a watermelon-shaped haircut, Might Guy instantly ignited a blazing fire of youthful passion. He gave Kakashi a thumbs-up, his pearly white teeth gleaming in the sunlight.

"Let's have a thrilling team leadership competition!"

"Let's see whose class goes the furthest in next year's Chunin Exams!"

"This is youth!!!"

Kakashi scratched his signature messy silver hair, looking annoyed, and replied lazily:

"Ah... please spare me, Guy. Leading genin is already troublesome enough, and now I have to compete with you..."

As he spoke, he seemed to inadvertently and awkwardly take a half-step back.

His elbow just happened to touch a stack of sealed file folders on the table behind him.

"Clatter".

One of the file folders slipped to the ground, the sealing rope came undone, and several pages of an evaluation report filled with dense text "just happened" to slip out.

And the direction it slid down "just happened" to be exposed to the line of sight of the closest Jonin, including Might Guy.

Kai's gaze unconsciously drifted over.

The Jonin standing nearby couldn't help but glance at it curiously.

The evaluation report clearly stated on those pages—

The three members of Team 7 are: Naruto Namikaze, Sasuke Uchiha, and Suigetsu Hozuki.

And in the various evaluation sections below their names:

Potential rating: S

Chakra type: All types (or multiple excellent types)

Mastered techniques: Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, Great Fireball Technique, Water Transformation Technique (and other B-rank or higher techniques).

Physical skills rating: A+

Tactical assessment: A+

At the end of the report, there was a special note written in red ink from the Hokage's office:

"Focus on key personnel, allocate resources accordingly, and train them to the standards of film-level reserve officers."

The bright, youthful smile on Matt Kai's face froze instantly.

His lips twitched uncontrollably a few times.

The Jonin who had initially been somewhat envious of Kakashi for receiving such a "good prospect" now wore expressions that were both amused and exasperated.

This is hardly an "ordinary" genin squad.

These are clearly three "little monsters" disguised as genin!

Hokage, this isn't really about letting Kakashi lead the regular class to see the world.

This is clearly a package deal that will directly give him at least three future Kage-level talents!

They even went so far as to call it "experiencing the real ninja world"...

How can we compare team performance with classes with this kind of setup?

This gap... isn't it a bit too "youthful"?

Kakashi seemed completely oblivious to the complex gazes around him. He casually bent down, slowly picked up the fallen documents, put them back into the file folder, and tied the seal.

Then, he raised his head, and the one eye that was exposed still had that lazy and innocent look.

But the slight tremor of his shoulder betrayed the mischievous pleasure he felt inside.

Uchiha Yao took in the whole scene.

The corners of his mouth curved upwards almost imperceptibly, before quickly returning to a serious expression.

He coughed lightly, drawing everyone's attention back to him:

"Kai, and all the previous Jonin who led the teams."

His voice was steady and powerful:

"The class you lead is also a precious asset to Konoha. The Chunin Exams are not only a stage for newcomers, but also a battlefield to test the results of your years of teaching."

"At that time, there's no need to hold back."

A sharp glint flashed in his eyes:

"Show your full strength and sweep away the arrogance of those outlying village teams!"

"Let the entire ninja world see this!"

"Konoha's new generation, the true power!"

"Yes, Lord Hokage!"

The Jonin responded in unison, their fighting spirit soaring, and the slight frustration they had felt from Kakashi's earlier maneuver was quickly dispelled.

"In addition, here's one more rule."

Uchiha Yao added, his tone calm yet carrying an undeniable authority:

"To ensure the dynamism and fairness of the exam, the maximum age limit for this year's Chunin Joint Exam is eighteen years old."

"Anyone older than this age, regardless of their ability, is not allowed to participate as a newcomer."

"This rule has been incorporated into the examination regulations jointly signed by the five major countries."

Eighteen years old!

These words sent a chill down everyone's spine.

This means that many seasoned genin who have graduated from the ninja academy for many years, accumulated rich experience, but whose talent is limited and who have been unable to be promoted to chunin will be completely excluded from the exam.

The exam will truly become an arena for top young talents from all over the world to compete.

The rules are extremely strict.

However, this also has a greater advantage for Konoha, where a new generation of geniuses is emerging.
