I teach in Naruto, and the system says I am Tsunade's student

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the report card, somewhat surprised, yet also feeling that it made sense.

He knew exactly what Naruto had done over the past month.

"Ok!"

Naruto Uzumaki nodded vigorously and added, "Kitazawa-sensei helped me a lot."

"You should really thank Kitazawa."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said with a chuckle.

Without Kitazawa's half-cheating homework assignment, Naruto Uzumaki would never have gotten sixth place in the class.

"I see."

Naruto Uzumaki said happily, "Kitazawa-sensei even taught me the Shadow Clone Technique."

"Kitazawa possesses a discerning eye."

"Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a sigh."

He hadn't expected Naruto to be so suited to the Shadow Clone Technique, but Kitazawa had noticed it.

Unfortunately, their strength is somewhat lacking.

Otherwise, Kitazawa could have easily become Naruto's mentor.

"I heard your class is going to have a friendly match against Class 2A?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi changed the subject and asked.

"Next week."

Naruto Uzumaki replied.

"The students in Class 2A are the elite of the second year. Are you confident?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at him and asked.

"Have!"

Naruto clenched his fist and said, "I'm going to fight the elites!"

"A year's difference is not something that can be easily overcome."

Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head and said.

"We have Mr. Kitazawa!"

Naruto Uzumaki said confidently, "We'll definitely win!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was thoughtful.

It seems Naruto Uzumaki trusts Kitazawa a lot.

But thinking about it carefully, it makes sense; he himself had never encountered such a dedicated teacher when he was in school.

They not only helped with tutoring but also taught ninjutsu.

"The result is not important; what matters is not having any regrets."

Hiruzen Sarutobi snapped out of his daze and said, "Just do your best."

Although Kitazawa taught well, in his opinion, it was still too difficult for a first-year student who had only been in school for two months to beat a second-year student who had been in school for a year.

"I will."

Naruto Uzumaki nodded and said.

Do you want to continue listening to the story of the Fourth Hokage today?

Hiruzen Sarutobi took the initiative to ask.

"Next time."

Naruto Uzumaki said with a conflicted look, "I promised Guy-sensei yesterday that I would train with him today."

"If you promise something, you have to keep it."

Hiruzen Sarutobi patted his head and said, "Then I'll tell you next time."

"I'm leaving now, third-generation grandfather!"

Without saying a word, Naruto Uzumaki started running.

"This kid, he doesn't even close the door, he's so impatient, he's not like Shuimen at all."

Hiruzen Sarutobi closed the door, stood there for a moment in thought, and then left.

Not long after, he arrived at Kitazawa's house.

Just as he was about to raise his hand to knock on the door, he suddenly felt a strong surge of chakra.

Hiruzen Sarutobi let out a soft "hmm" and walked to the back of the house.

He saw Kitazawa; he was practicing ninjutsu.

Hiruzen Sarutobi recognized it at a glance: it was Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique.

"Hokage-sama?"

Kitazawa noticed Hiruzen Sarutobi and quickly went over to him.

"How long have you been practicing your Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi asked with some curiosity.

"A week and a half."

Kitazawa answered honestly.

"You were able to learn Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique in just a week and a half. Your talent in Fire Release is quite good."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said with some surprise.

In his mind, Kitazawa was just an ordinary Chunin.

Judging from his Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique, he's no ordinary person; he must be at least an elite Chunin.

"You flatter me, Lord Hokage."

Kitazawa shook his head and said.

"No need to be so modest. I am the Hokage, after all. I have some insight."

After a moment's thought, Hiruzen Sarutobi said, "In a couple of days, I'll hold a special Jonin selection, and I'll nominate you."

The term "Special Jonin" refers to a ninja who possesses outstanding skills in a particular area, such as education, research and development, interrogation, and assassination.

"Thank you, Hokage-sama!"

Kitazawa said gratefully.

He doesn't mind becoming a special Jonin.

After becoming a special Jonin, you can take on higher-level missions, and as a teacher, your salary and benefits will be higher than those of a Chunin.

"It's nothing, I'm just helping you register."

Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled and said, "Whether it works or not depends on your ability."

According to Konoha Village's regulations, each promotion from Genin to Chunin, Special Jonin, and Jonin requires an examination.

But holding an exam specifically for one person is a privilege reserved for the Hokage.

This was undoubtedly done out of respect for Naruto Uzumaki.

Your strength has caught the attention of Principal Hiruzen Sarutobi, who has helped you qualify for the Special Jonin exam.

[Current Mission: Pass the Special Jonin Exam.]

[Mission Reward: Mastery-level Chakra Form Transformation.]

【Whether to accept? 】

Kitazawa stared at the words before him, momentarily stunned.

There were unexpected benefits too?

Mastery-level chakra transformation?

This is to make him learn the Rasengan.

Of course, it's not just the Rasengan; basically all ninjutsu involve chakra shape transformation.

"I will work hard."

Kitazawa nodded and said.

"How do you think your class has a chance of winning the friendly match against Class 2A next week?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi changed the subject and asked.

"Let's go fifty-fifty."

Kitazawa thought for a moment and said modestly.

"You seem quite confident."

Hiruzen Sarutobi raised an eyebrow and said with a smile.

"Is the Hokage free next Friday?"

Kitazawa remembered the boast he had made to Mizuki and said, "I would like to ask the Hokage to be the referee for the friendly match."

"can."

Hiruzen Sarutobi agreed without hesitation, saying, "I want to see how you're going to defeat Class 2-A."

Chapter 71 Kurenai's Invitation

The next day, Monday.

As June arrived, the temperature in Konoha Village rose considerably.

At the entrance of the Ninja Academy, a large number of students gathered in front of the bulletin board, looking at the grade-wide rankings for the May monthly exam.

Kitazawa leaned forward for a look, and it was similar to last time: the top ten students in Class A of the first year were the top ten students in the entire grade.

"Kitazawa".

Shui Mu suddenly appeared and stopped him, saying, "It's a pity that your class doesn't have any students who got full marks."

Did you fail to show off last time? Trying again this time?

Kitazawa said with a smile, "The Hokage has agreed to my request and will serve as the referee for the friendly match this Friday."

Shui Mu was stunned.

He really wanted to tell you that you were lying, but since it concerned the Hokage, Kitazawa absolutely dared not lie.

In other words, it's true.

It's so painful.

Shuimu felt as if he had become a clown after showing off.

What good are perfect scores if you get a lot of points?

Kitazawa has now become a favorite of the Hokage, and his future is limitless.

Shuimu already had a premonition that he would become his boss in a few years.

"I'm going to the classroom now, goodbye."

Kitazawa watched as Mizuki's face turned pale and then red, and couldn't help but laugh.

Indeed, happiness built on the suffering of others is true happiness.

Of course, Kitazawa has always been kind to people.

Shui Mu insisted on moving closer, and he thought it was a speed bump.

After the first class, Kitazawa went to the school's training ground.

With him were Uchiha Sasuke, Hyuga Hinata, Yamanaka Ino, and Haruno Sakura, the four who skipped class.
