The instructor vanished.
This isn't the level of a class instructor. Is he keeping an eye on me... or Uchiha Fugaku, the next clan head of Uchiha clan or Maybe both of us.
Minato is good but he doesn't required special surveillance from the Hoakge.
'Who cares? it doesn't change anything. ' I crossed my leg on the table and lean against the window.
*Clap* the teacher came inside and started clapping to get everyone's attention.
"We have finished our theoretical class and then comes the physical training. "
"Yeah! I was bored all this time! I will show all of them what a real ninja is like. " Takura shouted and secretly glare at me.
' looks like he isn't satisfied with what the Uchiha brat said. Not my problem though, I will just beat him up if he challenges me. ' I was laying lazily on my seat.
Seeing my lack of reaction Takura became annoyed. " Just you wait. I will beat out all your arrogance! "
"Okay everyone, let's go to the practice ground. " The instructor led the kids towards the practice ground which was just a ground with some stumps on the edge for throwing kunais and shirukens.
"Everyone is new here and most of you don't know each other's strength or where you rank at in the class room so we will be holding spars.
One can challenge anyone once until the next round.
The one who will win the final duel will be rank 1 but don't get discouraged if you score low because it's just the first match and the ranking match will be held every month so the ranks will keep changing. " the instructor called out the rules and the match begin.
"I challenge you! Izuna" takura called Izuna out and Izuna slowly walked up to him.
"Boo! shut up monkey face! " a girl shouted.
"Broom head! " another adds in but takura wasn't affected, in fact he was smirking.
"Okay, both of you make the seal of Confrontation "
we both made the seal.
"Begin."
As soon as the voice fell, takura immediately run up to me aiming a punch straight at my face.
'Heh! after this fight I will become super popular and everyone will forget about him and soon I will become the hokage! " the boy was daydreaming during a fight but sadly he was immediately disturbed in his dreams.
*bang* a kick mercilessly hit his face and then he lose his consciousness and fell to the ground.
* crash *
Nobody saw how the kick hit him and before anyone noticed. Takura was already lying on the ground.
' He's fast ' the instructor was serious and amazed. 'This isn't the speed of a academy student. He's speed is that of an elite genin! '
the instructor couldn't believe it. 'Such a strength at the age of 5 . HE'S A MONSTER.
No wonder hokage sama was interested in him. ' the instructor was very suprised and he probably would have a heart attack if he knew that it was just a portion of his real strength.
This growth and strength wasn't normal for his age.
"Yeah!" " Kyaah~ izuna-kun looked so cool! "
" Served that broom head right! dare to fight against izuna-kun. " loud cheering and applause sounded and The poor Takura was forgotten that he was still lying unconscious on the ground.
"Ok next. " the teacher called out the next challenger and poor Takura was carried to the infirmary by his friend after performing the seal of Reconciliation.
The fight continued and nothing special happened. Uchiha Fugaku easily defeated his opponent, a commoner and Minato did the same. His physique and reaction speed were exceptional . As expected from the yellow flash.
The first round ended and half of the students were eliminated. The next round started and Uchiha Fugaku challenged me. "Come out izuna, I will beat you up to restore our clan's honour!"
I have to say that the difference between his present personality and the anime personality are drastically different.
Right now , he is just a small brat shouting about his great ambitions and clan's glory but I guess his mindset changed after seeing the cruelty of war and seeing the true faces of his clansmen who he was very proud of.
He was matured during the story but the present Fugaku isn't.
I slowly walked towards him and stood face-to-face with him. He is Sasuke's father but I couldn't care less.
We both performed seal of confrontation.
" Start. " the instructor's voice fell and the spar started.
Uchiha Fugaku immediately jumped away from me and was solemnly waiting for my response.
' Is it a trap? at least don't make it so obvious! '
Well, he did create some distance right from the start and formulate a plan and all but I wasn't interested in playing with him and I immediately sprint towards him.
'He's fast! ' Fugaku was shocked and before he could react, Izuna had already held him by his neck but instead of being disappointed, he smirked!
*Poof*
white cloud spread and Fugaku turned into a log!
" substitution jutsu! " the crowd of kids were shaken. To them, being able to perform ninjutsu is their dream. But Uchiha Fugaku can already do it on his first day of the academy!
The clan kids reaction was a lot milder. To them, being able to perform ninjutsu wasn't anything special. They were only a little suprised that Fugaku already learnt the substitution jutsu.
After Fugaku used the substitution jutsu, another Fugaku appeared behind the cloud and punched straight at an unprepared Izuna!
or Fugaku thought so.
His punch was easily caught by Izuna and he flung him down to the ground.
After a brief silence . Everyone started cheering Izuna and mikoto's small head was flushed red with excitement but she couldn't cheer for him. Mikoto and Fugaku had a somewhat friendly relation but after Fugaku forced her using his status, she wasn't friends with him anymore.
The kids from the uchiha clan went up to pick up Fugaku who was lying on his back, Groaning from the pain. After performing the seal of reconciliation, he was sent to the Infirmary.
The fight went on like before and the consecutive rounds also ended with Izuna one-punching them and soon it was the finals.
It was Izuna vs minato.
Everyone betted on Izuna and thought that minato didn't stand a chance but he wasn't affected in the slightest and still smile brightly at me.
"Let's do our best. " Minato gave me a bright smile to which I answered
"No"
"Eh? " Minato was perplexed and so the whole crowd.
"You win, I admit defeat. " as soon as my sentence finished I jumped out of the training ground and vanished.
"Wai-" Minato was saying something but I didn't pay mind to it.
The class was supposed to end earlier but due to those "spars" which couldn't even be considered as warm up was delaying my training schedule. And I purposely defeated everyone so quickly so that I can just surrender and run out of here.
I really want to fight with Minato who would later be renowned as the legendary " Yellow Flash " but not the current him. No matter how much of a genius he is right now but it still wouldn't change the fact that he isn't a ninja and can't be compared to one.
Fighting him now would only end up the same as the others ( one punch!!!) which would be a waste of time.
At the training field
"Looks like it ends here " the instructor helplessly shake his head. "Minato is the no. 1
of our class. "
The class should be applauding him normally but no one cared about it.
"Izuna-kun looked so cool when leaving. "
"Kyaa~my heart! "
"Izuna-kun didn't even care about the class ranking. He easily gave him the Victory and didn't even hesitated unlike some broom head
who only knows how to boast. "
"He would have easily won this fight" as the girl started talking, the words became more exaggerated.
Hearing this, Minato smiled bitterly. He knows that Izuna didn't even see him as an opponent. The gap was just too big.
Seeing the dejected face of Minato, the instructor patted Minato's shoulder and kindly replied. " You can challenge him again in the next month. "
Hearing this Minato's mood lightened.
'Yes, he is better then me by a large margin but if I keep training hard then one day I would catch up to him! ' Minato resolved his heart and return back to his bright persona.
