Naruto: What do you mean you're from the Head-Touching Village?

Quiet.

An eerie silence fell over the scene.

Everyone stared blankly at the two stationary targets not far away.

"How come this guy is actually stronger than Kakashi?"

Obito's expression was a mix of emotions. He cheered for Shun Akihito more to annoy Kakashi than to actually make Shun Akihito stronger than Kakashi.

Seeing this now, I realize that Shun Akihito is even stronger than Kakashi, and he can't even handle Obito.

Kakashi silently clenched his fists.

He has always been a very competitive person. He was already upset when he was outshone by Akira Shun in the written test. He has been training even harder recently in order to get back at him in the "Ninja Tool Throwing" event.

The result was the same.

The person most shocked by Akihito Shun's results was Kazama Shinya, who was completely bewildered.

He's an adult now, so he understands better the differences that come from different family backgrounds.

If this achievement were made by Kakashi, he might be surprised, but it would also be within his expectations, because Kakashi was originally very talented, his father was the famous "White Fang of Konoha" who was famous throughout the ninja world, he received elite education from an early age, and his family had enough resources for him to practice every day.

But what about the fleeting autumn days?

His parents were just ordinary Chunin who died in the line of duty. Judging from his impoverished daily life, the inheritance he left behind was probably barely enough for him to grow up normally. Like most students, this was probably the first time he had ever touched a shuriken.

How could this happen?

This isn't a question of whether he's a genius or not; this situation is simply beyond his comprehension!

wrong!

Suddenly, Kazama Shinya caught a glimpse of Kurenai Yuhi out of the corner of his eye.

By the way, these two little guys have a very good relationship and play together every day. Kurenai's father, Kurenai Yuhi, is a Jonin. Perhaps Kurenai Yuhi discovered his talent early on and trained him like her own son?

If that's the case, then everything makes sense.

"That's amazing, Shun! So incredible!"

After realizing what was happening, Kurenai jumped up happily and praised Shun Akihi, then ran to Shun and hugged his arm.

"No wonder you always just watched when Father trained me; you're actually that good!"

He does not mean that.

After Kurenai Yuhi finished speaking, Shinya Kazama's brain couldn't process what she was saying.

What do you mean by him just watching while you're training?

So he's never trained?

Kakashi, standing to the side, clenched his fists even tighter.

"Actually, I learned it by watching you train."

Qiu Rishun scratched his head and chuckled, displaying the shyness of a young man experiencing his first moment in the limelight.

perfect!

In the fleeting autumn moment, I couldn't help but give a thumbs up to the sunset crimson.

This sentence is the strongest assist, allowing him to perform this act even better!

Now it wasn't just the higher-ups who found out after checking his information; everyone present knew that this was the first time he had ever touched a shuriken!

Watching Kurenai Yuhi train is a great reason to learn, and we can take advantage of this opportunity to spread the word when there are many people around!

In this way, he can reduce a lot of trouble when he uses the Shuraken technique later.

He could easily say he learned by watching others use it, but as for why he was able to learn it, that's none of your business.

Is your talent just too strong?

"Then you're even more amazing!"

At this point, Kazama Shin was no longer listening to the two children. All he knew was that his salary seemed to be about to increase by a visible rate!

......

After school.

Kakashi walked down the street, looking somewhat absent-minded.

His mind kept replaying Akihi Shun's performance in today's "Ninja Tool Throwing" class.

He was unconvinced, but he had to admit that he couldn't do that.

Especially the final three shots in quick succession.

During the meal, Hatake Sakumo noticed his low spirits and asked with a smile, "Did anything interesting happen at school today?"

Kakashi paused in his eating, then told Sakumo Hatake what had happened during the ninja tool throwing class.

After Kakashi finished speaking, Sakumo Hatake sat down next to him and rubbed his head.

"It's okay, don't be discouraged by this. I remember telling you that if you don't work hard, that kid named Matt Kai might be stronger than you in the future."

"You know how that kid usually behaves; he's trying his best to bridge the gap in talent through sheer hard work."

"I believe my child can do it too."

After listening, Kakashi stared blankly at Sakumo Hatake, as if he was thinking about something.

Three seconds later, Kakashi nodded solemnly.

"I will definitely surpass Shun Akihi!"

Seeing that Kakashi had recovered and was no longer distracted, Sakumo Hatake returned to his seat and continued eating.

Although his actions seemed no different from usual, in reality, after listening to Akira Shun's performance in class, his heart was in turmoil!

How could someone achieve that level of skill on their first encounter with ninja tools?

......

This situation isn't limited to Kakashi's family.

The students who were present at the time basically told their families about Akiga Shun's performance in the ninja tool throwing class.

This includes Sarutobi Asuma.

After hearing his story, Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression also became serious.

He was very familiar with the name Akira Shun.

The child's statement that "the Third Hokage is the sun" left a deep impression on him. He never expected that a child could understand his hardships and difficulties so well, and that he had already learned to think from the perspective of the Hokage at such a young age.

He personally graded the other person's paper to a perfect score.

I never imagined that not only academic subjects, but also the other person's talent in being a ninja would be so terrifying.

As for whether his claim of "never having trained" was an exaggeration, Hiruzen Sarutobi hadn't even considered that question.

Whether this is true or false, Akihi Shun has already perfectly demonstrated his talent.

If it's true, then that's even more incredible!

If Akihi Shun's ninjutsu talent were even a little better...

With that thought in mind, Hiruzen Sarutobi went to his own yard and waved.

A masked ANBU member silently landed behind Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"I remember that the child seemed to have received a lot of care from Yuhi Shinku, so I'll ask him about it."

......

At the home of Yuhi Hong.

Kurenai Yuhi was chattering away, telling Shinku Yuhi about Shun Akihi's performance in class.

"So, Father, do you also think Akihito Shun is amazing?"

After Kurenai finished speaking, she stared intently at Shinku Yuhi until she saw Shinku nod, and then she smiled.

"I'll be as amazing as him someday!"

"I believe my daughter can do it!"

After encouraging Kurenai Yuhi, Shinku suddenly recalled his previous evaluation of Shun Akihi.

He knew the child was a genius, but he never imagined that the other's talent had reached this level!

In a way, he had watched Akihi Shun grow up and knew very well whether Akihi Shun had ever trained before.

Then, as if he had thought of something, he looked at Kurenai Yuhi beside him.

"You guys have a day off tomorrow, right? I don't have any missions tomorrow either. Do you want to invite Akira Shun over to play together?"

"I'll take this opportunity to train the two of you."
