"Good morning students. I am Umino Iruka. I will be your homeroom teacher from now on. I hope we get along. Now, from the starting bench by the door, please start introducing yourselves."
A bit younger Iruka, looking somewhat 19-20 years old, arrived in the classroom and started the introductions.
Both Naruto and me, and probably many children, didn't miss the hateful glare he gave to Naruto. Even if the children don't know about Naruto being the jinchuriki, I can see why they would hate him too.
Afterall, kids are very sensitive to how adults behave, and they are copycats.
Well, I would prefer if Iruka continues to hate Naruto. I don't want him to develop attachment to a weak chunin, who will never be able to protect Naruto, but will need protection instead. So I will never let the two of them have any chance to have a moment.
RamenGuy can take the mantle of Naruto's father in our marriage. Not Iruka. What kind of father figure starts off by hating you? It's like those otome isekai where father hates daughter for 'killing' his wife by being born, and only later comes to love her when she actively works for it.
People like that are scum. Hating a little kid like that is pathetic.
"My name is Uchiha Sasuke. I will become the Police Commander when I grow up, and surpass nii-san!"
Oh. Sasuke. The waste of space whom I can't arrange to somehow kill, since he is very important to the plot. I hate this kid.
So what if your clan got eradicated? Go kill Danzo, village elders, and Obito. Why did he bring Naruto in all this?
And more importantly, it wasn't like the Uchiha Clan was innocent. If I have to describe the clan, it is the extremist, separatist kind with dung filled in their brains.
It's not like the village hates and fears the clan for no reason. Madara? From the Uchiha clan. Obito? From the Uchiha clan. Even if the people don't know about Obito, they know it pretty well that the Nine tails attack was done by an Uchiha.
Instead of trying to launch a coup on the village, which they would most likely fail, they should have just waited a bit more for Itachi to become the Hokage. He would need 7-8 more years to be old enough, and in front of his strength, support of the jonins, and possibly Hiruzen, he would certainly become the Hokage.
During Orochimaru's attack, Itachi would probably kill him, making him a hero, and a perfect candidate.
But no! Let's just try to control Kurama, and attack the village. Even if they managed to kill the upper echelon, will the people of Konoha live under their rule?
And Fugaku doesn't have as much chakra to keep controlling Kurama for long. Madara had chakra only second to Hashirama, and probably some Uzumakis. Obito had half Hashirama cells body, and was probably with the most powerful White Zetsu covering him, because otherwise him being almost the same height as Minato at the age of 14-15 wouldn't make sense.
Kurama would go out of control from the constant use of Mangekyo. And he will then kill the Uchihas too. They Uchihas overestimate themselves too much. They don't have much thinking ability outside of battle.
Well, the Uchihas have a little more than a year left. I have some plans to exploit the clan before and after their eradication.
------------
"Nara Shikamaru."
The introductions of several kids were done, and Shikamaru just said his name, and went to sleep. Iruka probably didn't shout since it is the first day.
"Akimichi *munch**munch* Chouji. I like potato chips."
"Hahaha! Fatso!"
"Don't laugh at your classmates!"
Kids laughed at him. Iruka shouted at them.
Chouji went sad, and ate a chip.
Wait... I can just sell the recipes to the Akimichi clan...
Hmm. Let's be friends with him. Maybe I will be able to learn to cook some dishes from the Akimichis themselves!
Then some more introductions went underway. Canon fodders, more canon fodders. Then Ino, Hinata, Kiba, Shino and other unimportant characters introduced themselves. Well, it wouldn't hurt to get close to them. They can give me a lot of money, especially Hinata.
Speaking of which, while Hinata looked really meek, she didn't stutter. Maybe because Neji isn't as harsh as he was since Hizashi is alive.
Anyway, If it wasn't for the Hyuga clan backing her, she would be easily bullied all her life. Well, as long as this creep doesn't stare at my Naruto, I wouldn't do anything to her. I don't want to lose valuable Hyuga customers afterall.
Then, the turn came for the third most important character, Sakura.
"I... um... am Haruno Sakura."
Oh. She was meek initially huh.
Well, even if the fandom hates her and calls her useless, she is the third most useful member of our generation. She learnt almost everything Tsunade had in the span of just three-four years. Even the Byakugou seal, that Shizune couldn't learn even after training under Tsunade for more than a decade. And if the LNs can be considered canon, then she is definitely the third strongest living character at that time.
It's the best time to bring Sakura under my wing. My, and Naruto's chances of survival would increase exponentially when she is near.
Right now, since she is shy and meek, it will be easy to make her my 'best friend'. And since Sasuke will never win against my Naruto in the academy spars, he wouldn't be as popular as he was in the canon.
I will have to make sure that she doesn't end up thinking of Naruto as cool instead, and tries to end our friendship like she did with Ino. So, I will have to make someone else look cool for her. And she deserves better than Sasuke.
"Let me sleep, troublesome woman..."
Oh. I see. Good. Actually, great. It's descided.
Some more introductions happened. Some noteworthy people were Katasuke, and Kido. Katasuke does wear glasses, so I think he is the Katasuke from the novel. As for Kido, I don't exactly remember if the name was Kido or Kaido. But he was money obsessed, and developed a really powerful drug. If he is who I think, then getting him under my wing wouldn't be too difficult.
Finally, it was time for Naruto to introduce himself.
"I am Uzumaki Naruto."
Naruto just told his name, and sat down while holding my arm, glaring at the people who held scornful eyes for him.
These people really don't deserve saving.
"I am Shiori. As many of you already know, I am the owner and creator of Shiori Jump. I am Naruto's wife, so don't ever think of eyeing him."
A kid tried to laugh, but I know how to control a lot of people to have good impression on me, and ignore whatever they consider as bad things attached to me.
"Since we will be friends from now on, I have prepared some gifts for you all. The second volume of Pokemon, which will be released two days later. And they are signed by the author herself."
Naruto put out a scroll from his bag, and several signed copies of the manga came out.
"""Yay!"""
"""Thank you!"""
All the kids were overjoyed. Pokemon will probably be the most profitable series I have 'created' in this world. But even more importantly...
I will use this to control the academy. Controlling people since they were kids makes thing a lot easier. Initially, everyone will get free manga. But from then on, the person who gives more value will get more free stuff, and those who I don't like won't get any.
Like those kids from the orphanage where I and Naruto lived. I would never bully them, obviously. But it's not like I can't just let the other people indirectly bully them for not getting free stuff from me even if they have. Everyone should know that there is nothing in any world that is free.
Gradually, the next generation of Konoha's society will be shaped according to my liking. The ones who have good relationship with me will be at the top, and the ones who aren't on my good side will be at the bottom.
And this way, I can atleast make Naruto's school life better. Even if Hiruzen didn't do much to reduce the hatred Naruto receives, I can do it myself, even though I am a kid.
When I am reigning over the academy as its queen, the commoners and nobles will have no choice but to respect the king.
