Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan.

Chapter 291 The Strongest Class 7

The chaotic classroom made Iruka feel utterly ashamed.

With a dark expression, he looked at the cheering Ya, and the coldness in his eyes made Ya shiver involuntarily.

At this moment, Yun nudged Minato with her arm: "Although I knew they had been friends since childhood and were close, I didn't expect them to go to the point of kissing. It's only because both of your families have boys, otherwise Hinata might not have had a chance."

Minato glanced at Yun with a dark expression: "It was just an accident. And...didn't you say that stone tablet recorded the combination of positive and negative, revealing the myriad phenomena of the universe? Wait...combination?"

Thinking of this, Minato became somewhat flustered.

"You haven't been planning to do this all along, have you? Kushina would never agree to it! No, I don't agree either!"

Yun's eye twitched. What kind of brain circuit was this?

"What are you thinking? It's just a combination of chakra. Kabuto's technology is mature, but it's only successful against those three. It's been used on some serious criminals, so let's stop there."

Upon hearing this, Minato paused for a moment, then nodded and replied, "The power originating from the Sage of Six Paths is perhaps not something ordinary people can obtain. Human experimentation is like a wild beast trapped in a cage; it must be strictly controlled. Kabuto has already sealed all the experimental data."

While the two were talking, Iruka had finally managed to restore order.

In the now quiet classroom, everyone stared expectantly at the three people on the podium.

With class assignments imminent, no one wants to be assigned to a class with someone they know well.

Minato looked at Iruka, nodded, and said, "Then let's begin."

"clear."

Iruka took out a list and began to assign classes, and the students below the podium began to get nervous.

Team 7: Sasuke Uchiha, Naruto, Hinata Hyuga.

"Class 8: Aburame Shino, Inuzuka Kiba, and Uzumaki Karin."

"Class 9: Sai, Aburame Torune, Haruno Sakura."

"Class 10: Yamanaka Ino, Nara Shikamaru, Akimichi Choji."

As soon as Iruka finished speaking, cheers erupted in the classroom.

Naruto was seen holding Hinata's hand, who had just recovered. If it weren't for Minato's glare, he would have jumped onto the table.

Meanwhile, Sakura in the other group was filled with resentment, her inner personality roaring within her:

Why wasn't he in the same class as Sasuke?! Why is it a masked man and a silly idiot who only knows how to laugh?

Ino, sitting listlessly in the back row, glanced at Shikamaru beside her and muttered, "So you guessed it without any suspense... For the first time, I hope your brain is wrong."

Shikamaru sighed helplessly: "The new Ino-Shika-Cho trio can't be separated, you should understand that. But... it seems the higher-ups want to form the strongest team."

The strongest?

Upon hearing this, Ino looked towards Naruto and the others. Were those three already considered the strongest of the new generation?

The strongest team is led by the strongest ninja as a Jonin. Is this the other possibility that Shikamaru mentioned?

Shikamaru glanced at the other two classes and whispered his judgment.

"Karin is from the Uzumaki clan and has extremely strong sensory abilities. Kiba and Shino's dogs and insects also possess strong investigative abilities. Considering this, Team 8 should be the investigation team."

"Sai's power comes from painting, granting him ranged attacks and flight abilities. As for Torane, with the Aburame clan's secret techniques and his uncontrollable power, is he good for close combat?"

Hearing this, Ino turned her head and looked over: "Where's Sakura? I always felt that she could have been in any class. She wasn't in the same class as Sasuke. She must be internally shattered right now."

Shikamaru nodded: "They're quite evenly average. Their grades in theory classes are average, their grades in training classes are average, and the same goes for the Three Body Techniques..."

"If you have good chakra control, you might be able to try developing medical ninjutsu."

At that moment, a head popped out from behind the two of them.

"So, as expected of Shikaku's son, his analysis is quite good. Sakura Haruno certainly has the prerequisites to become a medical ninja, but close combat is not where Aburame Torune is suited."

Shikamaru covered his forehead and looked at Yun: "Lord Yun, your sudden appearance is terrifying."

Looking at the profile so close to her, Ino felt a fierce internal struggle.

Kiss him! Kiss him! Kiss him!

Sakura has already completed the first step, so there's no reason for me to fall behind her.

As long as we catch them off guard, we can achieve our long-cherished wish!

Thinking of this, Ino, who was already blushing, cautiously moved closer.

however……

"Waaah..."

A hand blocked it directly, and Yun looked at Ino in confusion: "Why are you so close? Aren't you hot?"

Uh?

Ino was stunned, staring blankly at Yun, who was so close to her, wanting to say something but not knowing how to start.

Yun, however, continued looking at Shikamaru and said, "Just like your father, you're really smart. If you can become a Jonin in a few years, how about coming to help me?"

Shikamaru glanced at Ino, then helplessly shrugged and said, "According to what you're saying, Brother Yun, I really want to give up, but can I refuse?"

Yun thought for a moment, then shook her head solemnly.

"With your intelligence, you should have already figured something out, and it seems that Shikaku is intentionally or unintentionally grooming you."

"Your generation is strong, but so are your enemies. The ninja world will descend into chaos during your generation, but that is also your responsibility. No one can shirk the responsibility of continuing and maintaining peace."

Shikamaru let out a breath and nodded: "I understand."

Standing up, Yun patted Shikamaru on the shoulder: "Don't worry, your old man isn't that old yet. Normally you have enough time, but if things aren't normal, we can't say for sure."

After saying that, Yun turned around and walked to the podium, and at that moment, Minato also began his speech.

We still have to give the Hokage face.

"Wherever leaves dance in the air, fire will burn. The fire's shadow will illuminate the village and cause new leaves to sprout..."

After spreading the Will of Fire once again, it was almost time.

Minato looked at the students below the stage and said, "You are the new leaves of Konoha. When you become ninjas, the future has already begun to be handed over to you."

"Peace has been long since the Third Shinobi World War. It is precisely because of this that you have been able to spend these six years comfortably at the academy."

"I haven't experienced the baptism of war, nor have I experienced brutal battles. But I... the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze, still believe that you can shoulder the future of the village."

"Only by being strong can we prevent war; only by being fearless can we be without weaknesses. We are never afraid of war, but we never crave it!"

"Let us all strive together!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Minato left the classroom amidst a crowd of eager gazes.

These words, placed on an equal footing, ignited the passion of these little kids who were just over twelve years old.

After leaving the classroom, Yun looked at Shuimen and smiled: "I didn't realize you had such a talent for public speaking. You got these kids all fired up with just a few words."

Minato scratched his head, reached into his pocket, and pulled out a small note, handing it over: "I asked Shikaku to write this for me. I memorized it for a long time last night. Wasn't it very expressive?"

After glancing at the note, Yun teased, "I thought you really came up with this on the spur of the moment. Speaking of which, if it weren't for Shikaku, your position as Hokage would be really tiring."

Minato smiled and looked out of the teaching building: "The Akatsuki hasn't caused much of a stir in three years; it's just a few small fry causing trouble. Yun... are you interested in becoming Hokage?"

???

Yun paused for a moment, then immediately shook his head: "You're young and impetuous and haven't done anything seriously wrong. Suddenly resigning from the position of Hokage will have an impact on the various clans in the village and the Uchiha clan."

"Sometimes, when power reaches a certain level, especially when it comes to the Uchiha clan, even their own people will feel wary."

Minato sighed and nodded: "That's true. A Kage who hasn't made any mistakes resigning from his position, and the successor's power is beyond imagination, which will indeed cause some unnecessary trouble."

At this point, Minato's face fell again: "Yun... I really want to retire early. It's been years, and Naruto hasn't gained any more younger siblings. It's too tiring..."

Uh?

Yun was a little confused: You're saying this to me? I've never even been in a relationship, okay?

Minato patted Yun on the shoulder: "I should go back. If I don't get back to get the stamp soon, Shikaku will probably start yelling at me."

As soon as he finished speaking, a golden light flashed and disappeared.

I have to use Flying Thunder God even when I go back to work. I deserve to be tired. Can't I just take a break and go back to sleep?

At that moment, Iruka also came out of the classroom.

"Master Yun, the class assignments are complete. You are welcome to go in and take your students away at any time."

Yun nodded: "They've been leading classes again after a few years, and they're all from wealthy families. These guys are much more difficult to deal with than Quan and the others."

……

"Sasuke, who do you think will be our Jonin instructor?"

Erzhuzi looked at Naruto and replied, "With a class like Uzumaki, Uchiha, and Hyuga, there aren't many people who could actually be our teachers."

Naruto thought for a moment, then blurted out, "Two people, Brother Yun and Sister Izumi!"

Hinata, who was standing nearby, said softly, "Izumi-neechan, who has been training with Tokuma-nii for several years, understands the Byakugan and also possesses the Sharingan with three tomoe. In the past two years, Kurama-sama has also been accompanying Izumi-sama on missions..."

At this point, Hinata blushed again under Naruto's approving gaze.

This scene made Erzhuzi purse his lips in displeasure; he was simply uncomfortable.

Is this what Brother Yun meant by eating dog food?

I'm afraid I'll have to eat this every day from now on when we're in a team... It's awful.

As Sasuke was thinking, his gaze unconsciously drifted towards Sakura, only to find her looking right at him. Their eyes met.

"Whoosh."

Sasuke immediately averted his gaze.

Women... they can only slow down my sword-drawing speed!

Correct!

This is what Brother Yun said, it must be true.

Naruto, I, who eat dog food every day, will definitely defeat you and become the Sixth Hokage!

……

"squeak……"

The classroom door was pushed open, and Uchiha Yun walked in.

In an instant, all the students' eyes turned to look at them.

Every student here aspires to become the strongest ninja in the world, especially a student of the Fifth Hokage.

"Shikamaru, Shikamaru..."

Ino's voice was tense: "What if? What if?"

Shikamaru smiled helplessly: "The chances are slim. If I'm not mistaken, Brother Yun should be the Jonin instructor of Team 7."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yun announced, "Class Seven, assemble on the rooftop."

After uttering only seven words, Yun vanished from the spot in an instant.

Afterwards, Sasuke and the other two left happily. As they were leaving the classroom, Naruto arrogantly raised his head at Kiba.

On the other side, Ino sat back down listlessly, her face full of disappointment.

Shikamaru, standing to the side, shook his head and said, "I already guessed this would be the result, so there was no need for this, was there?"

"Moreover, the Ino-Shika-Cho combination doesn't actually teach Jonin much. We all have our own clan's secret techniques, and our families also provide specialized guidance on the battle rhythm."

Seeing that his advice was ineffective, Shikamaru sighed and tried a different approach: "You should be glad that Hinata was assigned to Team 7. Everyone knows about her and Naruto, so you don't have to worry about her being taken away."

???

These words made Ino's eyes light up.

Yeah! Hinata being assigned to Team 7 is better than the others, right?

"Smack."

He patted Shikamaru on the shoulder: "Good analysis. As expected of the smartest Nara clan in Konoha."

Shikamaru rubbed his shoulders and smiled wryly. "So that's why all the girls look so familiar?"

"Bang bang bang".

The classroom door was knocked on again, and all the students turned to look.

Shikamaru was also a little confused. Who was this Jonin who was being so polite instructing him?

The door was pushed open, and Uchiha Izumi walked in with a smile.

"Class 10: Nara Shikamaru, Yamanaka Ino, Akimichi Choji, let's... meet at the yakiniku (grilled meat) restaurant, okay?"

These words made Choji Akimichi jump up immediately, giving Izumi a thumbs-up and saying, "Sensei is the best! Yakiniku, yakiniku!"

Ino paused for a moment, then turned to Shikamaru and whispered, "Brother Yun's sister, this isn't bad either."

Shikamaru ignored them and followed the two out. Meanwhile, in his mind, he was already analyzing the situation.

Two Uchiha clans served as Jonin instructors for this year's graduates, and the six students came from six different clans.

If we add the class that Brother Yun led when he served as an instructor Jonin last time, then this group basically includes the core strength of Konoha.

Also... I heard that the bloodline of the Kurama clan has also awakened, and that girl is also Brother Yun's disciple.

"call……"

The leader, Izumi, turned to look at Shikamaru and smacked him on the forehead: "Why are you acting so old-fashioned at such a young age? You're like a little old man."

Shikamaru, covering his forehead, was stunned.

Izumi looked at him and laughed: "I knew my decision to become a Jonin instructor was right. Before, it was always my older brother who flicked me like that, but now I can understand the other side's enjoyment..."
