Naruto, aspiring to become a well-known figure in the ninja world

It was a negotiation that everyone was happy with!

Volume 98: Konoha's Last Dance

Konoha Ninja School.

At the gate of the ninja school, there was a banner that read "Welcome new students of the Sunagakure Ninja School". Several Konoha Chunin teachers were acting as volunteers, busy guiding the Sunagakure group and answering their questions.

"Eh!!"

"They are actually students from the Sand Village! They are coming to our Konoha!"

"Where is it? Let me see."

"Their attire is so strange. Why are they wearing headscarves?"

"Respect the Sunagakure costumes and put aside your curiosity!"

The windows and corridors of the ninja school classrooms were crowded with Konoha's new generation of students. Everyone was like curious babies, wanting to get a glimpse of the exotic customs.

For ninjas of this era, the first time they saw ninjas from other villages was most likely when they faced each other with swords on the battlefield.

Most people's understanding of ninjas from other villages is limited to word of mouth from their elders and descriptions in textbooks.

Now, the students of the Sand Village Ninja School have come to Konoha Village to participate in the "Summer Camp" activities. This is the first time in history.

【Summer Camp】

These rather novel words have been posted on the bulletin boards of each class.

Although it is not clear who planned it, the legend of the ninja school passed down by word of mouth among the ninja school students...

Most of these confusing activities are planned by Principal Gojo.

When they heard that it was Principal Gojo who planned it personally, the Konoha Ninja School was filled with wailing again.

Principal Gojo!

Ranked first on the Konoha Ninja School Legend List, he is a mysterious dragon that is hard to find, but the various activities he planned have tortured the young ninjas in the school.

First, the [Gratitude Education] gave them a little shame and shock, and then this [Summer Camp], I don’t know what will happen next.

But looking at the description of [Summer Camp], it looks like just regular ninja training, so nothing should go wrong...right?

Such as: Konoha Forest weight marching training, Konoha Forest cooking training, will training...

Among this group of lively Konoha kids, there is one exception.

Uchiha Itachi dealt with the female classmates around him perfunctorily, looked out through the window, and couldn't help falling into deep thought.

"My father said that Gojo counselors never do meaningless things."

"So, there must be some purpose that I am not aware of for letting the ninja school students from the Sand Village go to school and attend summer camp with us."

"And the summer camp activity... for ordinary people, it may be intensive training. But for the ninja school students who aspire to become ninjas, the purity is too low."

Snapped--

Suddenly, Itachi's shoulder was lightly tapped by Uchiha Izumi who attacked from behind.

"Itachi, what are you thinking about? You seem so absorbed in it."

"It's Izumi... I was wondering why Advisor Gojo brought in these Sunagakure students."

Uchiha Izumi thought about it, and looked at the Sand Village students below, looking at the leading girl with a fan-shaped ninja tool on her back:

"Maybe Advisor Gojo wants us to rub off on Sunagakure?"

"I heard from the elders at home that the Sand Village ninjas love to look for trouble and start wars. If we can defeat the Sand Village students and make their ninja school students feel scared, no one will start a war in the future."

"Is that so..."

Uchiha Itachi nodded thoughtfully.

This is in line with the character of Gojo Advisor. He never underestimated any village around him, and always implemented the idea of ​​"born in comfort and died in worry" mentioned in "Thirty-Five Strategies".

Therefore, that time when they were in the Water Kingdom, he took the initiative to test them and asked them what was on the other side of the sea.

This is to tell the young Konoha ninjas of this generation to be vigilant against people from other villages who regard them as enemies. Those who are not from our village should be killed! Never let your guard down...

If you solve the problem in this way, it will make sense immediately.

Uchiha Itachi suddenly realized that among the twenty-strong group of Sand Village students, he sensed several strong auras.

He was so strong that he was beyond the standard, not like a student. However, his age was still within the range of ninja school graduates, so he was probably a genius who graduated from the Sand Village School a few years ago.

Obviously, the Sand Village came prepared this time and wanted to undermine the morale of Konoha students.

Thinking of this, Uchiha Itachi subconsciously clenched his fists, and his aura became fierce.

The chakra belonging to the Sharingan is stirring.

"I cannot lose this contest between the younger generation of Musha, bearing the name of a consultant."

"Eh hey hey? Itachi, what weird things are you talking about?"

……

The head teacher Umino Iji, who performed outstandingly in "Education of Kindness", was appreciated by Gojo Keizuki and was promoted to the head of the teaching department.

He truly achieved the position of the ultimate teacher, second only to two people and above a bunch of people.

Namikaze Minato only appears when new students are admitted and when new students graduate, and Gojo Kegetsu is a hands-off boss most of the time, so Umino Iro has the final say in this ninja school!

He is equivalent to the shadow vice-principal of Konoha Ninja School, and has some say in the recruitment of new teachers in the Ninja School.

But that’s where it stops.

Gojo Kegetsu was too lazy to take care of personnel matters, but the decision-making power over the ninja school's education system and what activities to carry out was firmly in Gojo Kegetsu's hands.

After Gojo Jieyue’s policy came out, it’s hard to say whether he can get any credit, but he will definitely have to take all the blame.

In this position he endured too much pressure that a Chunin shouldn't have to endure.

This time, he was sent by Gojo Jieyue to settle the Sunagakure student team first and implement the policies that had been arranged in advance.

"What a strange policy..."

Umino Iro's heart was beating fast, as he always felt that Principal Gojo was going to harm someone again.

No matter how much you complain, you still have to continue doing your job.

Ilu smiled, rubbed his hands and walked towards Maki: "I guess this is Mr. Maki, the leader of Sunagakure."

"Principal Gojo has already told me. Come this way."

Yilu waved his hand, and his own direct Chunin teacher led the students of Sunagakure to an empty classroom, where they settled down.

As for Yi Lu, he led Maki to the school's conference room and began to tell him what Gojo Jieyue had told him.

"In view of the situation of the students in Sand Village and the situation of our Konoha Village, Principal Gojo has specially formulated a special system--"

"I don't know what it is?"

Maki asked curiously.

He was very humble and didn't show any contempt for the ordinary Chunin sitting in front of him.

It looks just like a parent trying to please the class teacher of his child who is about to enter school.

Yi Lu paused and said, "Study buddy system."

"Huh...? Study partner? What's that?"

Maki looked confused, feeling that Konoha was playing with something very new.

"This is a system designed by our Konoha Ninja School for the Sunagakure international students. The specific content is a one-to-one pairing of study partners!"

Yilu spoke confidently, fully displaying his eloquence when conducting [Education of Gratitude]: "The Ninja School implements the "Study Buddy" project for Musha students, which aims to promote academic progress and cultural exchanges through mutual learning between Musha students. Break down the barriers between the young ninjas of the two villages as quickly as possible, and allow the students of Sunagakure to integrate into the classrooms of Konoha."

"This project selects Konoha students who voluntarily sign up, and requires students participating in the project to strictly abide by relevant regulations. Participating students carry out learning and exchange activities in groups."

"Twenty Sunagakure students will be divided into various classes in Konohagakure Ninja School according to their age and ability."

"Break up the original group relationship, so as to integrate into the new environment and learn knowledge as quickly as possible. Lord Maki does not want the Sand Village School to simply stick together for warmth and continue with the old ways of the Sand Village Ninja School in these three months."

Hearing this, Maki nodded slightly, agreeing with what Yilu said.

"We will ask students to fill out their requirements in detail and carefully. For example, students in Konoha can write in their requirements: Matching with a study partner who is proficient in shuriken throwing skills."

"Students from the Sand Village can also write: I am looking for a schoolmate who is proficient in the use of medical ninjutsu."

"And in order to prevent unnecessary trouble, study partners will only be matched with ninjas of the same sex."

"After completing the ninja missions assigned by the school, it will be easier for students from Konoha and Sunagakure to communicate with each other's culture. Let's work together for the peace of our two villages."

What a...superior system!

Maki secretly admired in his heart.

No one knows better than the senior ninjas in his village what kind of personalities the students of their Sand Village Ninja School have.

Those who can stand out in such a cruel training and selection system are naturally the best among the ninja seedlings, but most of them have psychological and character defects. As a ninja, you should cut off the ties, eliminate emotions, become a handy tool, and do everything for the village.

In the village, they are not close to each other, but outside, they will stick together and be exclusive.

If there is no external interference, these new recruits of Sand Village will probably stick together for warmth and refuse to communicate with Konoha during these three months.

This would go against the original intention of the meeting at the Kazekage Building. What they have to do is to uncover the secret of Konoha's strength!

There is nothing more appropriate than breaking up the large group of twenty people and disrupting their integration into the Konoha Ninja School.

After they return to the village, special personnel will collect information from the students.

The information obtained by different classes is definitely different. In the eyes of a thousand people, there are a thousand codes of Konoha's strength, which will then be woven into a scripture by scholars in the future... That's how it's done!

And the study partners arranged are all of the same sex.

As a patriarch, Maki naturally does not want the best students in his ninja school to be abducted by people from Konoha.

Especially the Sand Village Princess Temari.

If I were to arrange a same-sex schoolmate, and he ended up being kidnapped by Konoha's white-haired ninja...

When Maki thought of the white-haired ninja of Konoha riding his ninja dog and shaking his hair in front of him and saying something like "Old Deng, my ninja dog is parked downstairs of your house", he felt his heart stop.

It absolutely, absolutely, absolutely cannot happen!

Fortunately, Konoha's arrangements were very thoughtful, avoiding the possibility of such a thing happening and nipping the crisis in the bud.

"And about summer camp..."

Bit by bit, Yilu finished telling everything that Gojo Jieyue had told him to do.

Originally, the matter would have ended here. But Principal Gojo had one last order for him that was difficult for him to tell others...

The thought made Yilu tremble with emotion. The Flying Thunder God Seal was engraved under the table in the conference room. As long as a distress signal was sent, the Hokage would be the first to feel it. But the question was whether his small body as a Chunin could hold on until the signal was sent?

"Mr. Umino, is there anything else you want to say?"

"Well, this..."

Kaino Iru gritted his teeth and decided to go ahead with it.

"Hey, Mr. Maki, I remember that because of your history and system in the Sand Village, most of the high-level ninjas have mastered the technology to repair puppets, right?"

Maki was startled: "Is that so? What happened?"

In the Sand Village, puppeteers are few in number, but there are many spare puppets. Basically, when you reach the level of Chunin and above, although you can't use puppets, you still have the skills to repair puppets.

This is so that if one day on the battlefield, the puppeteer is too busy to repair the puppet, ordinary ninjas can help.

Upon hearing this, Yi Lu immediately showed a mercenary smile on his face, "I also have a puppet in my hand, but there is a small problem..."

"Hmm? Lord Umino has a puppet? What's the problem?"

Although puppetry is unique to Sunagakure, the same cannot necessarily be said for puppets.

Many of the nobles in the five major countries have special hobbies and like to collect some female realistic human face puppets. Could it be that the one in front of me is the director of the Konoha Ninja School...

"Let me tell you this, Mr. Maki!" Yilu said with a heartbroken look: "I spent 300 million taels when I bought this puppet."

Maki subconsciously asked, "What now?"
