Naruto: I made you Naruto, and you've become blond?

Chapter 96 Sasuke: There is only one sun in my heart!

Kiba Inuzuka, who was simple-minded and never had any ulterior motives, also looked delighted.

"Ino, I never imagined you could actually become almost Tsunade-sama's student!"

"Yeah, this has been your dream since you were little. You talk about it so much that Shikamaru and I are sick of hearing it..."

Choji's chubby face was also full of sincere smiles.

As a childhood friend, Ino's ability to fulfill her childhood dream is naturally something to be happy and congratulated about.

Shikamaru, with his hands behind his back and a leisurely pineapple-shaped hairstyle, nodded.

As a direct descendant of the Hokage, Tsunade's ability for Ino to learn medical ninjutsu from her naturally benefits the Shikacho family, who have always been united.

Uchiha Sasuke was taken aback upon hearing this, and his brows furrowed.

Confused by the changes in other people's expressions.

Although he also acknowledged that Tsunade was very powerful and was the most skilled ninja in the ninja world in medical ninjutsu.

But a ninja's skill is fundamental! Medical ninjutsu is merely a secondary skill!

Moreover, he only had one sun in his heart, and that was his older brother, Uchiha Itachi!

Seeing the joyful smiles on everyone else's faces, Sakura Haruno pursed her lips, feeling an overwhelming bitterness in her heart.

A misty haze rose in her eyes.

It was clearly a wonderful thing for my best friend Ino to fulfill her dream.

I should be happy for her, so why am I feeling inexplicably sad?

All the joy belongs to them, while they have nothing.

If it had been me, not Ino, who had pursued Naruto...

Is it possible that I am the one who might be recommended to Lady Tsunade to learn medical ninjutsu?

Thinking of this possibility, Sakura Haruno's hands unconsciously clenched tightly together inside her sleeves.

Bright red marks were left on her originally fair and delicate hands.

"Sakura! Aren't you interested in medical ninjutsu?!"

Ino rushed back excitedly, affectionately hugging Haruno Sakura's slender waist, her fair and delicate face close to hers.

"Huh? Ino... what does Ino mean?!"

Sakura Haruno was a little stunned, not knowing what Ino's sudden question meant.

"Isn't Sakura also a huge fan of Tsunade, just like me?"

"If Lady Tsunade is really willing to teach me medical ninjutsu, and Sakura you can listen with me, Lady Tsunade is such a generous and cheerful person, she shouldn't mind, right?"

Ino grasped Haruno Sakura's hand with her fair and delicate little hand, and said cheerfully in a soft voice.

hum...

Sakura Haruno's mind went blank for a moment.

Can I... also learn medical ninjutsu from Lady Tsunade like Ino?

"Hey? Sakura, why are there tears in your eyes? Are you happy to hear this news?"

……

Naruto looked at Yamanaka Ino, who was bouncing around beside him, her innocent face full of collagen, making no attempt to hide her happiness.

A smile also appeared at the corners of his mouth.

Who wouldn't love to have such a beautiful girl around him, his little face beaming with happiness and joy?

At this moment, Ino provided him with a wealth of emotional value.

This is far better than receiving a 520 yuan red envelope in later generations, only to be met with a breathless "I'm running on the treadmill".

Moreover, in his previous life, he had always thought that Ino was a very likable girl who was delicate and gentle. She came from a good family and did not have the temperament of a rich girl.

She is also generous and easygoing, yet thoughtful and considerate.

He also showed genuine concern and help to Naruto, who was ostracized by rumors about the fox spirit in the original story.

She's far superior to her best friend, who could say something like, "He's an orphan and lacks proper upbringing," a statement that simultaneously cuts through Sasuke's logic.

It's just that her talent and strength weren't enough in the later stages; she only mastered the Mountain Clan's secret technique, the Mind Transfer Technique.

During the Fourth Shinobi World War, where Gundams flew around indiscriminately, they were practically relegated to the background.

Even her father, Yamanaka Inoichi, died at the hands of the Ten-Tails' Tailed Beast Ball.

Actually, Ino didn't formally become Tsunade's apprentice.

Teaching medical ninjutsu casually is just a matter of course for Tsunade.

If we're really going to go by that, then the medical ninjas in the Konoha medical system that Tsunade created during the Second Shinobi World War could all be considered her students to some extent.

It was also the predecessor of the current medical team at Konoha Hospital.

As a result of this innovation, at least half of the ninjas in Konoha Village have benefited from the remarkable healing and treatment, whether directly or indirectly.

This is why Tsunade hasn't returned to Konoha for decades.

The reason why she still enjoys such great prestige in the village is not just because she is the granddaughter of the first generation.

……

Ninja Academy, classroom.

Iruka, dressed in a standard Konoha Chunin green vest, clapped his hands with a smile.

He gave instructions to the dozens of little kids sitting obediently in the classroom in front of him.

The latest novel is first published here!

"Everyone, gather at the school's training ground today for physical training!"

"However, the second-year students are also taking a practical test today, so please be careful not to disturb the older students taking the test."

As he spoke, Iruka waved several colorful coupons in his hand.

"Also, if any student is willing to demonstrate their current ninjutsu skills, they'll receive a barbecue wrap from Barbecue Q as a reward!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a chorus of wails erupted from the classroom.

One student shouted, "Iruka-sensei is just making empty promises! We're only first-year students, how could we possibly master ninjutsu?!"

"Who said nobody knows how?! If you're bad, just practice more!"

"Sasuke-kun used the Shadow Clone Technique last time!"

A little girl immediately stood up to refute.

"That Uchiha clan? They brag all the time, but they still lost to Naruto Uzumaki with just one punch?"

"Matsuoka, what did you say!?... "

The classroom was filled with a noisy commotion.

Upon hearing this, Sasuke's slightly upturned lips drooped, and he clenched his fists.

Naruto Uzumaki, my lifelong nemesis!

With his mother's guidance this time, he will surely be able to redeem himself now that he is proficient in Fire Release!

Let them see that there are no cowards in the Uchiha clan!

……

An open space in the ninja academy training grounds.

"Hey~ Naruto-kun, have you learned any of Tsunade-sama's signature ninjutsu?"

Ino touched the short, bright golden hair beside her cheek, her emerald-like eyes sparkling.

Naruto glanced at the blonde girl standing beside him.

And then there's Hinata, who's following them closely, her index finger poking at each other, her head bowed.

He chuckled. "Why do you ask that?"

"Didn't Iruka-sensei say he was going to demonstrate ninjutsu? I thought Naruto-kun, you wanted to go up on stage and show off too! There are barbecue coupons available~"

"It might even impress Iruka-sensei, since the final exam includes a score based on the teacher's interview."

Naruto nodded and looked at her.

"Ino, what about you? Do you want to see it?"

"Eh, eh eh eh?!"

A blush crept onto Yamanaka Ino's delicate face; she hadn't expected Naruto to suddenly ask about her feelings.

Suddenly, a noisy shouting sound came from not far away.

"Is this what the Byakugan is? It's utterly impossible to defeat such power!"
