Chapter 71 - Chapter 71: Pending Team

(T/N: Please consider reviewing this Fanfic, Thanks and appreciate all who support me)

(T/N: Enjoy!!)

"Wait, teacher!"

The Pending Trio hurriedly stopped the Chunin who was about to leave, even though it was Obito. At this moment, he wasn't in the mood to be discouraged about not being in the same team as Rin.

This pending status meant that it was uncertain whether they could graduate as ninjas.

If, by any chance, they really couldn't graduate as Genin, wouldn't the distance between them and Rin grow even further?

Of course, the most devastated person at this moment was not Obito but Yūhi Kurenai.

When she came, her father told her that her teacher would be a very, very formidable figure.

This made Kurenai look forward to it all along, and the result was a pending status. What on earth was going on?

At this moment, Kurenai felt like her father might have deceived her.

"Obito, Kurenai, Shizune... I hope nothing unexpected happens."

At this moment, in their hearts, Rin and the others were silently praying.

The Chunin teacher also stopped walking away because of the trio's shouts, turning around with a puzzled look and asking, "What's wrong, do you students have something to say?"

"Teacher, what does this pending mean?"

Seeing the teacher stop to inquire, Obito hurriedly asked.

On the side, Shizune and Kurenai also nodded pitifully, looking at the Chunin teacher.

Seeing their expressions, the teacher instantly understood. These three had never heard of such a situation.

It's also his fault. It's normal for the kids not to have heard of it. After all, no one else was like him, having actually encountered this kind of situation.

He remembered that back then, Minato was also pending, right? When he received the file at that time, he was also confused. However, later, when Minato became a disciple of Jiraiya, he understood.

It's only been a few years, and the Minato he taught has all become Jonin, but he's still a Chunin. Sigh, I wonder which prominent figure has taken an interest in these three kids.

The Chunin teacher sighed in his heart, feeling genuinely happy for them.

"Oh, pending~" The Chunin teacher elongated his tone, wearing a smile with a hint of mystery.

Not only the Pending Trio but also the other students in the classroom perked up their ears, wanting to know what was going on.

"You three are really lucky. I won't tell you the specific reasons, but don't worry; it's a good thing. Just wait patiently, don't want spoil your surprise."

The Chunin teacher ultimately didn't reveal what was going on, but his words reassured the trio.

Good things are good, indeed!

As the Chunin teacher left, the classroom instantly became lively. Although everyone didn't know what happened to Team Obito, they could guess.

Time passed amidst the chatter, and more and more people were taken away by their respective Jonin instructor.

Even Ebisu was taken away by an unknown Jonin. Obito, Rin, and Shizune even saw the instructor of the previous year, Might Guy, and Genma Shiranui.

Of course, despite not being in the same year, they were still familiar with each other.

Now, in the spacious classroom, only the Pending Trio, Rin, and Asuma were left.

Tap, tap.

As light footsteps echoed in the corridor outside the door, everyone turned their attention to the entrance.

Wondering if it was Rin and their mentor or if it had something to do with them?

Obito muttered quietly in his heart.

As the footsteps drew nearer, the classroom door finally opened.

The first thing that caught everyone's eyes was a warm head of yellow hair.

"Lord Minato!"

Everyone exclaimed as the newcomer turned out to be Minato Namikaze, a renowned ninja from Konoha.

However, only Obito noticed Kakashi Hatake following behind Minato.

No need to ask; Minato Namikaze was undoubtedly the Jonin mentor for Rin and Asuma.

But when Obito saw Kakashi, he couldn't help but feel annoyed.

"You arrogant guy, hmph!"

Facing the displeased glances from Obito, Kakashi chose to ignore him, which only fueled Obito's frustration.

If they were outside, he would definitely challenge Kakashi to a duel.

Minato glanced at the on-edge Obito and chuckled.

Is this the child, lord Asahi have taken a liking to? The temperament is... somewhat reminiscent of Kushina.

"Cough, Team 5, Rin Nohara, Asuma Sarutobi. I'm your Jonin mentor; come with me."

At these words, Rin and Asuma obediently followed Minato out of the classroom, with Kakashi accompanying them. 

Observing Rin and Kakashi walking together, Obito's discomfort intensified.

Suddenly, as Minato approached the door, he turned back to the three remaining students in the classroom and said, "You're very fortunate. Make sure to perform well!"

As he spoke, he gave them an encouraging smile.

With a handsome appearance, both Kurenai and Shizune nodded in agreement.

However, Obito, with a disdainful expression, rolled his eyes.

Lucky? Everyone keeps saying I'm lucky, but I don't see it. Getting into the same class as Rin doesn't necessarily mean being placed under any ninja.

How is that good luck? It's just plain bad luck if I end up in a different team from Rin.

As Minato left, the classroom fell into an eerie silence.

"Um, do you think the three of us will be in the same team?" Sensing the awkward silence, Shizune tentatively brought up a topic.

"Not likely. If we were in the same team, why wouldn't the teacher have told us from the beginning?" Kurenai disagreed with Shizune's idea.

"Yeah, why does the school bother with all these mysterious arrangements? They could just tell us directly," Kakashi complained, feeling tired and not looking forward to what would happen next.

Beep, beep, beep...

As the three spoke, the sound of hurried footsteps echoed in the corridor once again.

In just a few seconds, the classroom door was pushed open.

"Lady Tsunade!"

The newcomer made the three students freeze in awe. Even Kurenai and Shizune, who admired Tsunade, couldn't help but subconsciously call out.

Could it be that I will be under Lady Tsunade's guidance?!

The thought involuntarily crossed the minds of the three. Becoming Tsunade's apprentice would be a tremendous leap. Not to mention, in terms of hierarchy, it would be on par with Lord Minato.

Especially Kurenai, who thought this possibility was highly likely. After all, her father mentioned that her teacher would be an exceptionally powerful person.

If her father was referring to Lady Tsunade, everything would make sense. After all, Tsunade, one of the Three Legendary Ninjas, deserved the admiration of all of them
