Konoha: From the time Kuring dispatched generals to control Nine Tails

Chapter 10 First Year
Time passed bit by bit, and Ziye gradually became familiar with the life of the ninja school.

After getting acquainted with them, we can see that there are quite a few "acquaintances" in the school.

Mitarai Red Dou, who likes to wear fishnet clothes with a coat and was accepted as a disciple by Orochimaru early on, is Ziye's senior sister. She has a bold and generous personality, and especially likes to eat sweets.

Ziye brought Itachi, Quan, and Hyuga Liuli, and at the cost of sacrificing their hues, they rubbed a lot of three-color dumplings with Hongdou.

This can be regarded as the beginning of a few people's friendship.

There is also a civilian ninja who is inconspicuous now, but will become a big boss of the entire ninja world in the future——Pharmacist Dou
Although now he is just a little transparent in the class.

Who would have thought that such an unremarkable child, a commoner ninja from an orphanage, would inherit all of Orochimaru's mantle in the future, learn the white snake fairy method that Orochimaru had never learned, and set off the fourth ninja world war?
By contrast
On the contrary, Hongdou, the official student of Orochimaru who seems to have a bright future, got nothing except a few snake-type ninjutsu and a half-finished Heaven's Curse Seal full of side effects.

Can be called the biggest loser.

Those who don't know can't imagine it, and those who know can only sigh:
"The world is impermanent, God's will tricks people."

However, since midnight has come, it will not let this happen again.

It's just that for Ziye now, the future problem is too far away. His current problem is that he doesn't have a good teacher.

Konoha's ninja school has a six-year system, which was shortened to three years during the war.

Last year, when Konoha and Tonin signed a peace treaty, the third generation abdicated and the fourth generation came to power, marking Konoha's withdrawal from the wartime system and transition to a peacetime period.

But the transformation of the ninja school is done gradually.

Take this year's graduates as an example. Although it is a time of peace, they have actually only studied at the ninja school for four years.

Ninja School mainly teaches students how to become a qualified ninja.

This may seem like nonsense, but it is not.

Ninjas are not warriors, nor are they magicians, although they often behave alike.

Except during the ninja war period, the ninja's mission is usually not a frontal battle.

Infiltration, assassination, concealment, and intelligence acquisition are the main tasks of ninjas most of the time.

Therefore, in times of peace, teaching students how to hide themselves in the wild and trace the enemy through subtle clues is the job of the ninja school.

As for ninjutsu, Sanshenjutsu is enough.

This is why Sasuke, who graduated from Ninja School No. 1 in peacetime, has the same combat strength as Uchiha Obito, the crane tail in wartime.

Because the purpose of teaching is different.

For ordinary ninjas in peacetime, the transfiguration technique infiltrates, the avatar technique confuses the enemy, and the substitute technique assists in escape, which is enough to deal with most low-level tasks.

However, for gifted students like Ziya and Uchiha Itachi, such teaching intensity is not enough.

After only one semester of school, several people fell into a situation with nothing to do.

This is also the reason why those great ninjas are unwilling to send their family children to ninja schools.

In addition to the inheritance of family secrets, the more important reason is that the current teaching level of ninja schools is indeed not as good as the family's private teachings.

However, Ziye didn't want to graduate prematurely.

He always believes that the three views of teenagers have not yet formed. Whether it is Anbu or the mission of the ninja team, it is too cruel for their age group.

"Ninja School" sounds good, but it is actually teaching them how to kill more efficiently, or prevent being killed.

"So, that's why you skipped class and ran out."

With a dark face, Hongdou ordered a three-color dumpling for each of the little ghost heads.

"Where, we came out to practice more." Zi Ye said righteously.

"That's right, I don't want to eat three-color dumplings!" Hinata Liuli agreed.

Before he finished speaking, Quilt Ziye slapped him on the forehead, and Liuli immediately crouched in defense with his head in his arms:

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu hit me again..."

"cough!"

Looking at the interaction between Ziye and Hinata Ruri, and Uchiha Itachi and Izumi's almost identical expression, covering their mouths and snickering, Hongdou felt inexplicably fed a mouthful of dog food, cleared his throat quickly, and changed the subject:

"By the way, today's actual combat test, have you already finished it?"

"Exam?" Ziye was a little dazed: "Isn't that tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow is the senior group, and today is the lower grade." Hongdou said with certainty.

Ziye suddenly turned his head stiffly to look at Itachi.

Itachi nodded, swallowed the last mouthful of the ball unhurriedly, took another sip of tea before saying, "She's right, but it's today."

Then stood up: "Let's go, it's still too late."

……

"Next match, Midnight will face Uchiha Itachi!"

"..."

"Midnight?"

After the examiner finished speaking, he found that there was no one answering, so he couldn't help but looked up and found that Zi Ye and others were running from the outermost edge of the team.

Ok?
Were they in that position just now?
"I'm coming……"

Panting, Ziye ran up to the ring, and ran over from Watanabe Dessert, but it was really not close!
on the ring
Ziye and Itachi stood apart, raising their hands to form a seal of opposition.

The examiner looked around and nodded in satisfaction:

"start!"

Following the examiner's order, Itachi's figure disappeared in an instant, and he rushed in front of Ziye. At a young age, he had already used the blinking technique in a decent way.

But Ziye is not an easy person.

Ziye knew Itachi's speed was fast, so he made Tai Chi gestures, using defense instead of attack, using slow to beat fast.

Itachi's physical skills are simple and efficient, and his shots are clean and sharp, hitting the vital points directly, but under the defense of Ziye Taiji, they are all in vain, and all attacks are blocked one by one.

Seeing that the quick attack was ineffective, Itachi didn't bother much, and jumped back to widen the distance.

Knot Seal·Shadow Cloning Technique

Shadow clone?
As soon as Itachi's shadow appeared, the examiners who were in charge of the examination were really stunned.

The compulsory subject of the ninja school's graduation exam is avatar, but itachi is only a first-year student, and he can already use a more advanced shadow avatar.

Thinking about the first grade in Itachi's homework, the examiners shook their heads in unison.

I can't teach anymore.

Itachi and the shadow clone threw several shurikens at Ziya from two directions at the same time. The shurikens intersected in the air, and the flight trajectory changed again, while enveloping Ziya from all directions.

Faced with this unavoidable blow, the invigilating examiner was almost about to strike.

But Ziye took out a three-inch long Willow Leaf Flying Knife from his ninja bag and threw it with his hand.

Under the infusion of inner energy, the Willow Leaf Flying Knife drew a circle in the air, knocked away all the shurikens, and returned to Ziye's hand.

But all of this was within Itachi's expectations.

The shuriken is just a feint, a tool to relax Ziye's vigilance, and the subsequent illusion is the ultimate move.

The moment Ziye raised his eyes, what he saw was Itachi's golden binding technique.

However, this time Itachi miscalculated.

With both hands, Ziye has both life and soul, and his soul defense is impeccable, and he is not afraid of illusions at all.

With a flash of blue light, the illusion on Ziye's body was released.
