The Avengers of the Uzumaki Family

Sakura Haruno has every reason to be happy.

And it was this cheer that resounded.

This attracted countless envious and jealous glances from the class, mostly from girls, but also from some boys. After all, who wouldn't want to be in the same group as the top student?

Sakura Haruno could also sense these hostile gazes immediately. She shrank her neck, put on an awkward but polite smile, and sat down again, keeping her mouth shut.

She had no doubt that if she continued to show off...

Who knows, these envious young men might just pounce on us!

Don't pay attention to me, don't pay attention to me.

He muttered to himself while pretending to be an ostrich with its head buried in the ground.

Naruto and Sasuke were also slightly taken aback, and then glanced at Menma's location with a different kind of light in their eyes.

"Hehe! We can be in the same team, Sasuke, Menma, and Sakura. I look forward to working with you from now on!"

Naruto, with a bright smile, gave Sasuke and Menma a thumbs-up.

Although Naruto is not as crazy about Sakura Haruno as he is in the original story due to different circumstances and treatment, his relationship with Hinata is also much stronger than in the original story.

They had the same experiences in their childhood, but different outcomes.

Most importantly, as the son of the Fourth Hokage, the Hyuga clan had no reason to refuse or oppose Hinata's relationship with Naruto.

Therefore, the relationship between the two can be described as very close.

However, Naruto's true nature meant that he still had a considerable amount of affection for Sakura Haruno.

"That's not fair, Iruka-sensei!"

"Why are Menma-kun, Sasuke-kun, and Naruto-kun all in the same team?!"

"Aaaaaah! I can't accept this!"

"Teacher! This doesn't make sense! It's four people per team!"

"Teacher, please say something!"

After a brief pause.

Thanks to Iruka's kind and gentle nature.

The students below immediately erupted in an uproar. They might not care much about a team of four, but what they couldn't accept was that the three best students in the class were put in the same team.

Menma and Sasuke are consistently ranked in the top two.

Although Naruto's theoretical scores dragged him down a bit, he was still a solid top-five player, making for a well-rounded team.

It would be a miracle if anyone could accept that.

Unless they were replaced in this squad, it would be perfectly fine, and the more they thought about it, the stronger their 'resentment' towards Sakura Haruno became.

This made even the little body of the 'Pink Pepper' start to 'tremble'.

"Ahem, quiet down, quiet down."

Iruka coughed lightly a few times, tapped the podium lightly, and then continued speaking.

"The Hokage personally arranged the team assignments for Menma, Naruto, and Sasuke, so you kids should stop arguing."

"Eh?!"

"Was it actually arranged by the Hokage himself?"

"Isn't it?"

"That makes sense, after all, they are Sasuke-kun, Menma-kun, and Naruto-sama!"

"Aaaaaah! I still can't accept it!!!"

"Then why is Sakura Haruno allowed in?!"

"Ugh! I don't understand!"

Unexpected, yet seemingly reasonable.

After her initial shock, Menma gradually calmed down.

Should we marvel at the powerful inertia of the original storyline?

Or is it that the Third Hokage really has the ability to make arrangements?

However, this is indeed a fairly reasonable allocation. After all, it has been said before that if we had to choose the most suitable young Jonin to lead the three of them from the current Hidden Leaf Village, then it would definitely be Kakashi Hatake!

Everyone else has different problems or shortcomings.

Kakashi is the most suitable person, or rather, the only suitable candidate!

'So this is how it's arranged? But it doesn't matter anyway.'

Menma sighed inwardly, then nodded gently to Naruto with a calm expression, glancing back at Sasuke, who was also looking over at the same time.

However, after noticing Mianma's gaze, Erzhuzi snorted and turned his head back to face Mianma.

This made Mianma feel a little amused.

Erzhuzi is still born with a proud and arrogant personality.

No matter how the little guys below howl like ghosts and wolves.

The outcome for the seven-person team was already decided.

It was a rare occasion for Iruka to put on a stern face and use his teacherly authority to suppress his students; otherwise, the chaos could have continued indefinitely.

Iruka had experienced this firsthand in the past.

"Team 8: Hinata Hyuga, Kiba Inuzuka, and Shino Aburame."

"Class 9..."

"Team 10: Nara Shikamaru, Yamanaka Ino, and Akimichi Choji!"

After Class 7, there were no more unexpected class assignments. Apart from Menma, who seemed to have wandered in, everything was exactly the same as in the original story.

"That concludes your class assignments. All your names have been called. Now, please wait here for your instructors to arrive. Finally, I wish you all the best in your martial arts endeavors."

After saying this, Iruka took one last deep look at the dozens of students he had taught for six years, including Menma, before turning around and striding away from the spacious tiered classroom.

And that was not long after Iruka left.

Next, a number of ninjas wearing Konoha-style vests walked in one after another, calling out the class they led.

"First shift, follow me."

"Third class."

"Class 11".

"Class 5".

The graduates of the team that was called upon stood up one by one and left the classroom behind their instructors.

The number of personnel is decreasing rapidly.

to the end.

When Asuma, with his full beard, and the young Kurenai Yuhi arrived together, they took away Team 8 and Team 10.

In a huge classroom.

That means only four people remain: Masaru, Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 34 Four-Person Squad

All the companions who left.

The classroom has become more spacious.

This finally allowed Sakura Haruno to breathe a sigh of relief, because the gazes of those classmates just now were truly 'killing'.

Now, seeing that only her team of four remained in the classroom, Sakura Haruno's nervousness completely disappeared.

My heart was filled with joy.

Unlike the original story where the happiness was only doubled and even diminished due to Naruto's involvement, in this life, Sakura Haruno feels she experiences three times the happiness.

Handsome and dashing Sasuke.

Naruto, of noble birth.

The high-achieving Mianma-kun.

Ah, this is just too wonderful!

Sakura Haruno suddenly felt that the air around her had become sweeter, and this girl really felt that her luck was absolutely incredible.

Sakura Haruno felt incredibly happy.

Naruto, standing nearby, also thought this team assignment was excellent, but not because of Sakura Haruno, but because he could be in the same team as Menma and Sasuke. This Naruto in this life is not the Naruto from the original story.

Sasuke has similar thoughts to Naruto, but he is even less likely to show them on his face.

As for the sesame seeds.

To be honest, this class division was indeed somewhat beyond his expectations.

But it also seems to make sense.

The only thing I'm curious about is Sakura Haruno.

After all, from the perspective of the original work, there is really no reason for this person to join Team 7. The only plausible reason is that in the original work, Sakura Haruno is the object of Naruto's affections, so Hiruzen Sarutobi let Sakura Haruno join Team 7 in order to better appease Naruto's emotions.

This is certainly a sufficient reason.

However, this can only be considered a conjecture, as there is no concrete evidence in the original work to prove it.

I won't even mention it in this lifetime.

Menma has had virtually no contact with Sakura Haruno; Naruto's closest female friend right now is Hinata Hyuga.

Erzhuzi is definitely not interested in any girls.
