Chapter 85 Graduation from Ninja Academy (Fourth Update)

a new day.

Natsuki and Yakushi Nonou arrived at Konoha Hospital.

They entered the laboratory and saw Tsunade busy at work.

Xia Mu lowered his gaze and noticed the five test tubes on the lab table.

They come in different colors and have a strange beauty.

"These are the five most potent poisons that Konoha Village has been able to find so far."

Tsunade explained, "I've already had the Anbu help me collect the poison outside of Konoha Village."

"Then what would I do with Nonou?"

Xia Mu nodded and asked.

"The antidote is prepared by arranging and combining different ingredients."

Tsunade raised her hand and pointed to a test tube not far away, saying, "If it reacts with the extracted Hanzo poison, then it's a success."

"OK."

After Natsuki finished speaking, she and Pharmacist Nonou began to put on their protective gear.

"The main reason for having you participate is to allow you to learn and gain experience."

Tsunade looked at them and said, "Your training cannot be neglected. From now on, you will make antidotes with me in the mornings."

Natsuki and Yakushi Nono both nodded at the same time.

The winter break quickly came to an end amidst the making of antidotes and training.

January arrived, and the third and final semester of Grade 4A class officially began.

Natsuki, Kushina Uzumaki, Minato Namikaze, and Nono Yakushi have all planned to apply for early graduation.

Then they will be able to team up with Rope Tree's sixth-grade class A.

Registration day.

After a quiet winter break, the ninja academy has become lively again.

"Watergate".

After Natsuki entered the Ninja Academy, he saw a familiar figure.

"Natsuki, Kushina, it's been a long time."

Minato Namikaze turned around and greeted him with a big smile.

Yakushi Nonou didn't come to register; she went to the Konoha Hospital Medical Ninja Training Class instead.

"It feels like it's been a month or two since I last saw you. What have you been doing all this time?"

Kushina Uzumaki asked curiously.

"I will learn the Flying Thunder God Technique from the Second Hokage, following the example of the Hokage."

Minato Namikaze thought for a moment, then answered without hiding anything.

Kushina Uzumaki immediately showed a surprised expression.

Although she wasn't a native of Konoha, she had heard Ishida Yu talk about Tobirama Senju's deeds during class.

Among them, Tobirama Senju's most iconic ninjutsu, besides Water Release, is the Flying Thunder God Technique.

This is a rare space-time ninjutsu.

Anything involving time and space is bound to be extraordinary.

"Unfortunately, it's too difficult; I haven't even gotten started yet."

Minato Namikaze sighed and said.

"After all, it's an S-rank ninjutsu with a learning difficulty level."

Xia Mu said with a smile, "The hardship you're going through now is for the future. Once you learn the Flying Thunder God Technique, your strength will definitely increase dramatically."

.

"Um.

""

Minato Namikaze nodded.

At the same time, he was also somewhat surprised.

Because Xia Mu remained calm, even knowing that he was learning the Flying Thunder God Technique, his expression didn't change much.

Is he confident that he can't beat him even though he's learned the Flying Thunder God Technique?

For a moment, Minato Namikaze was under a lot of pressure.

But no matter what, I have to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique first.

After all, if you don't learn it, then you really can't win.

After the three people registered, they went their separate ways.

Minato Namikaze went to find Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Kushina Uzumaki went to find Mito Uzumaki.

Natsuki went to Konoha Hospital to work with Tsunade on making an antidote.

After half a month of effort, and with his hints, Tsunade has successfully discovered two effective poisons.

However, success is still a long way off.

However, given enough time, there is still a great chance.

The most troublesome type of poison is the puppet poison from Chiyo.

But it's not necessarily the most troublesome.

Konoha and Sunagakure are currently at war, and sooner or later, the scale of the war will escalate.

Then, just like in the original work, there will be a battle between Chiyo and Tsunade involving poisoning and antidote.

Obtaining the puppet poison made by Chiyo is easy.

Nothing much changed after school started.

Xia Mu continued to prepare antidotes in the morning and practice Hanzo's swordsmanship and learn Water Release: Water Formation Wall in the afternoon.

March has finally arrived.

The ninja academy is welcoming graduation season.

Class 4A

After all the classes in the morning were over, Yu Ishida did not leave.

As is customary, he also had to inform others of something.

"Students, after the final exams, you will be moving up to fifth grade, while sixth graders will face their graduation exams."

Yu Ishida said slowly, "Anyone among you who wants to take the graduation exam early, please raise your hand to apply."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Natsuki and Minato Namikaze.

In his view, the two of them could have applied for early graduation long ago, and their abilities were even sufficient in their second or third year.

But they never applied.

Just when he thought the two of them wouldn't apply, Natsuki and Minato Namikaze raised their hands.

The classroom fell silent.

The discussion that followed was not surprising, but no one was surprised, including Onodera.

They all felt that Natsuki and Minato Namikaze were qualified to take the graduation exam.

To be more precise, they were surprised that they applied for early graduation so late.

"Just Natsuki and Minato?"

Yu Ishida nodded and then asked.

"teacher."

Natsuki raised his hand again and said, "And Kushina and Nonou too."

Although Kushina Uzumaki and Nono Yakushi rarely attend classes anymore, they are still students in Class 4-A.

"Um."

Yu Ishida had anticipated this and remained calm.

Just then, an unexpected little girl raised her hand—Uzumaki Kaori.

Natsuki and Minato Namikaze exchanged a glance, both somewhat surprised.

"Xianghui, are you sure you want to apply for early graduation?"

Ishida Yu couldn't help but ask.

"Sure."

Kaori Uzumaki nodded and said, "I want to be teammates with Kushina."

"I will apply to the Hokage. Whether it will be successful depends on the Hokage's arrangements."

Yu Ishida did not refuse upon hearing this.

Although Kaori Uzumaki is a transfer student, she is quite capable and will have no problem passing the graduation exam.

"Does anyone else want to apply?"

Ishida Yu asked for confirmation at the last minute.

Onodera hesitated for a moment, but ultimately chose to give up.

If he were to take the graduation exam, his chances of passing would actually be quite high.

But he wanted to get first place once before graduating.

After all these years, he has been beaten up by Natsuki and Minato Namikaze.

"get out of class dismissed."

After Ishida Yumi did not raise his hand, he turned and left the classroom of Class 4-A.

He didn't go back to his own office, but went directly to the Hokage's office.

"Lord Hokage."

Hiroshi Ishida knocked on the door and came in.

"Is anyone graduating early?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's heart stirred, and he asked.

Since the establishment of the Ninja Academy, the Hokage has been in charge of class assignments.

Because class assignments involve many ties and interests, and may even affect Konoha Village.

For example, his three students: Jiraiya, Tsunade, and Orochimaru.

It's graduation season now, and the only reason Ishida Yu came over was to graduate early.

The fourth-year Class A taught by Yu Ishida includes Natsuki, Minato Namikaze, Kushina Uzumaki, and Nono Yakushi, among others.

"Yes, Lord Hokage."

Yu Ishida immediately mentioned that Natsuki and the others had applied to graduate early.

"Is there another one, Uzumaki Kae?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi tapped on the Hokage's desk and said, "I agree. Tell them to attend the graduation exam on time."

"Yes, Lord Hokage."

After bowing slightly, Ishida Yu turned and left.

"Go and call Tsunade here."

Hiruzen Sarutobi pondered for a moment before speaking.

"Yes, Lord Hokage."

The ANBU ninjas appeared and then quickly disappeared.

"What do you want?"

A short while later, Tsunade pushed open the door and walked into the Hokage's office.

She had been at Konoha Hospital for some time, so she arrived quickly.

"Natsuki and the others applied for early graduation, and I plan to put Natsuki, Nawaki, and Nonou in the same team."

Hiruzen Sarutobi chuckled and asked, "Are you their team leader, or Orochimaru?"

Tsunade immediately fell into deep thought.

Given her relationship with Orochimaru as teammates, it wouldn't really matter who leads the team.

But being roughly the same doesn't mean there's no difference.

"Let Orochimaru be their team leader."

Tsunade finally made a decision.

Although Yakushi Nonou is more suitable to be her student, Natsuki and Nawaki are better off following Orochimaru.

Besides, the two of them had already become Orochimaru's students and learned a lot of swordsmanship and ninjutsu.

If Tsunade were to take both of them, Orochimaru might turn against her.

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded slightly.

Tsunade's answer was exactly what he expected.

In fact, he also preferred Orochimaru to be their team leader.

After all, they had already built a good bond.

Hiruzen Sarutobi knows Orochimaru very well.

He was different from Tsunade and Jiraiya; he usually appeared more gloomy.

Such a personality is prone to problems.

However, with Nawaki and Natsuki around, their personalities can be balanced, preventing Orochimaru from making wrong choices.

"And what about you? Do you want to become a team leader? Orochimaru and Jiraiya will both become team leaders."

Hiruzen Sarutobi added, "The students graduating this year are quite capable."

"No need, I don't have that much time."

Tsunade declined, saying, "Although I won't lead the team, I can take Nonou as my student."

"Since you've put it that way, I won't insist."

Hiruzen Sarutobi paused for a moment, then asked, "Any progress on the antidote?"

"There are some, but not many."

Tsunade shook her head and said.

"It's okay, some progress is better than nothing."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said with great magnanimity.

He wasn't very confident that Tsunade could create an antidote, but if she succeeded, it would be a pleasant surprise.

It was afternoon.

Tsunade arrived at Mito Uzumaki's residence and told Natsuki and the others about it.

"etc!"

Kushina Uzumaki sensed something was wrong and hurriedly asked, "What about me?"

"Kushina, don't assign teammates for now."

Tsunade explained, "We'll talk about it after you've learned the sealing techniques."

"But—but—"

Kushina Uzumaki subconsciously looked at Natsuki.

"Even though we've graduated, we still cultivate together when we're not on missions, just like any other time."

Xia Mu said reassuringly.

"All right."

Kushina Uzumaki nodded dejectedly.

"Once you've mastered the sealing technique, if you want to go out on missions, you can go with Xia Mu and the others."

Seeing this, Tsunade spoke up.

Although Konoha Village operates on a team of four, some missions require the collaboration of multiple ninja teams.

In a sense, Tsunade did not lie to Kushina Uzumaki.

Kushina Uzumaki felt much better after hearing this.
