Naruto: I, Naruto, Start With The Full-Level Shining Fruit

“You guys are... from the last graduating class, right?”

Yakushi Kabuto sized up the three, pausing an extra second on Neji’s face. “The top student from last year’s graduating class, Hyuga Neji from the Hyuga clan!”

“The Hyuga clan?”

“The same clan as Hinata.”

Everyone looked at Hinata, but she was hesitant to meet Neji’s gaze.

“Neji… Brother…”

“Brother?”

“That person is Hinata’s brother?”

“Yes, Neji is my cousin,” Hinata explained softly.

At this moment, Neji also noticed Hinata, and said blandly, “Hinata-sama, with your current strength, is it really necessary for you to participate in this exam?”

“Hey, what do you mean by that?”

Hearing the other party imply something about his comrade, Inuzuka Kiba immediately couldn't bear it, but Neji didn't pay him any attention.

“And you guys too, except for that guy named Naruto, coming to participate in the Chunin Exam is just for show. If you don’t want to be discouraged, it’s best to withdraw early.”

“What did you say?!”

Hearing Neji say this, everyone except Naruto cast an angry look at Neji.

The hot-tempered Inuzuka Kiba directly threw a punch at Neji!

But Neji slightly tilted his head to dodge his punch, and then gently pushed Kiba back.

Everyone else was shocked by Neji’s skill.

Although Kiba’s strength is not strong, he is definitely not weak.

But this Neji dealt with Kiba so casually!

“Heh.”

Looking at their displeasure towards him, but their helplessness, Neji sneered.

“That Yakushi Kabuto, right? I want to see his information card.” Neji pointed at Naruto.

Naruto, huh?

Yakushi Kabuto narrowed his eyes slightly and pushed up his glasses.

He had already noticed Naruto’s uniqueness.

Compared to the other rookies who graduated this year, this young man always had a calm and collected demeanor!

He wasn't pretending to be profound, but possessed an aura of absolute confidence in his own strength!

‘The information I have may be different.’

Yakushi Kabuto thought as he pulled out Naruto’s Shinobi Info Card.

“Uzumaki Naruto, a rookie this year. His grades at the Ninja Academy were the worst… Sorry~”

As he spoke, Yakushi Kabuto scratched his head apologetically to Naruto, but Naruto only glanced at him and ignored him.

This caused a glint of coldness to flash in Yakushi Kabuto’s eyes, and then he continued to read, “Mission experience: 12 D-rank missions, 1 C-rank mission. His team leader is Leaf Jonin, Hatake Kakashi.”

“That’s all?” Seeing that Yakushi Kabuto didn’t continue speaking, Neji was somewhat dissatisfied.

“Sorry, because they are rookies this year, I didn’t expect them to participate in the Chunin Exam, so I didn’t make too many preparations,” Yakushi Kabuto said apologetically.

Actually, there was another reason, which was that Naruto’s strength at the Ninja Academy was too poor, and he simply didn’t pay much attention to him.

His investigation of Naruto was limited to some basic information.

But he couldn’t say that, as it would easily offend people… He was currently playing the role of a nice guy, and couldn’t say such offensive words.

“Tch, wasting time!”

Neji took a deep look at Naruto, and turned to leave with Rock Lee and Tenten.

Ino looked at the backs of Neji and his team, and said unhappily, “What a conceited guy. Kabuto-senpai, do you have a Shinobi Info Card about him?”

“Please wait a moment~”

Yakushi Kabuto nodded, and then found a card with Neji’s photo from a pile of Shinobi Info Cards.

“Hyuga Neji, a genius from the Hyuga clan. He’s one year older than you, and was the top graduate of the previous class. Mission experience: 20 D-rank missions, 11 C-rank missions. His team leader is Leaf Jonin, Might Guy.”

“He’s skilled in the Hyuga clan’s taijutsu, and has some knowledge of other abilities. He’s not good at genjutsu, but he doesn’t have any obvious weaknesses.”

“Hmph, doesn’t sound like much. We have top graduates too, right, Sasuke-kun!” Ino once again took the opportunity to jump on Sasuke to take advantage of him.

Sasuke looked speechlessly at Ino, who was clinging to his back.

Although he agreed with Ino’s words, he really didn’t need Ino to get so close to tell him.

“Ino-pig, get off Sasuke!”

“Nah-ah-ah, I don’t want to! Forehead!”

“Damn it!!”

......

Among the nine rookies present, Ino and Sakura were the most unruly, and they didn’t care where they were when they started fighting.

Just then, Yakushi Kabuto took out another card, revealing the information inside.

“Leaf, Sand, Rain, Grass, Waterfall, Sound… Many excellent genin from these ninja villages have been sent to participate in this exam.”

“However, because the Sound Village is a ninja village in a small country that was established in recent years, there is almost no information about them.”

“In short, the other countries are all powerful ninja villages, and the ninjas they send are all powerful ninjas from their respective countries, so you all need to pay close attention!”

Listening to Yakushi Kabuto’s obvious offensive remarks, Naruto glanced at him slightly.

Deliberately stirring up trouble, this wasn't this guy's persona.

Was it to make these Sound Village guys familiar faces?

These three Sound Village guys and Yakushi Kabuto's group were in cahoots.

In Orochimaru's plan,

Yakushi Kabuto was responsible for infiltrating Team 7 and observing and collecting Sasuke's information.

The three Sound Village guys were responsible for probing and testing Sasuke's potential.

But with Naruto present this time, it was hard to say whether Orochimaru would be able to place the Cursed Seal on Sasuke.

“Listening to all this, I feel like I don’t have any confidence,” Hinata suddenly said with a worried look.

“It’s not good to say such discouraging words at this time.”

Naruto took the initiative to speak for the first time, “The so-called elites from various countries are just genin. Except for a few whose strength is no longer at the genin level, everyone else is actually about the same.”

Everyone looked at Naruto, obviously not expecting Naruto to say such comforting words.

Ino walked closer to Naruto, her face very close to Naruto's, full of suspicion, “I say, are you really Naruto? Why have you changed so much?”

Naruto took a step back and said lightly, “Do I have to be boisterous?”

“It’s not like that,” Ino continued, “It’s just that your appearance has changed too much, right?”

She hadn’t looked closely before, but now that she carefully sized up Naruto, she found that this Naruto was actually quite handsome?

Hair similar to Sasuke’s, a face that was always calm, giving off a Sasuke 2.0 vibe?

Was he imitating Sasuke?

But can you really imitate something like temperament?

“Careful!”
