Just like that, half a year passed in a blink of an eye. Everyone in the ninja academy , including the teachers, didn't realize that during this half year, the one attending classes in the ninja academy was always Satoru's shadow clone.
And today, something special happened in the ninja academy. So this time, Satoru didn't use a shadow clone to go to academy, but went to academy in person. This is entirely because Kakashi's early graduation application has been approved today. Today is Kakashi's graduation assessment. If he passes this assessment, then Kakashi will become a true Genin.
At this moment, there were already a bunch of students standing on the playground of the ninja academy. After all, Kakashi was the first one to take the graduation assessment just half a year after starting academy.
In the past, there were geniuses in the ninja academy, but there has never been a genius like Kakashi. You could say that Kakashi is the first in history.
"Is today the day of Sakumo's child's graduation assessment?"
In the Hokage office building, the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, is looking at the crystal ball in front of him, which is reflecting the scene of the ninja academy.
Not long ago, he personally approved Hatake Kakashi's early graduation assessment.
"Yes, Hokage-sama."
"How is Sakumo's eldest son, Hatake Satoru, performing?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen continued to ask.
"From the observation of the ninja academy, his performance is quite mediocre, but this does not rule out the possibility that he is hiding his talents."
"Is that so?"
After saying that, Sarutobi Hiruzen enlarged the image of Hatake Satoru, as if he wanted to observe Hatake Satoru carefully.
And in the ninja academy, Hatake Satoru, as if sensing something, looked up.
It was this look that surprised Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"Did this kid discover it? Or is it a coincidence?"
Although Hatake Satoru was wearing sunglasses, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt that the other party had seen him through his Ninjutsu.
"The Third Hokage?"
Hatake Satoru lowered his head, his expression somewhat solemn. He knew that Sarutobi Hiruzen had a Ninjutsu that could observe the entire Konohagakure village, so he didn't know if his strength had been exposed.
But there was no time for Satoru to think more, Kakashi's assessment had already begun.
"Next, we will conduct Hatake Kakashi's graduation assessment. Since it is early graduation, the difficulty of the assessment will be more difficult than the normal graduation assessment. So before the assessment, I want to confirm once again, Hatake Kakashi, are you sure you want to take the graduation assessment in advance?"
Asakawa Kosuke said seriously.
"I'm sure."
Kakashi also nodded seriously.
"So handsome."
Seeing Kakashi's appearance, a group of infatuated girls immediately shouted.
"Kakashi, you must succeed."
Rin also clenched her fists and silently prayed for Kakashi in her heart.
And seeing Rin's appearance, Obito couldn't help but feel jealous of Kakashi.
"Kakashi, if you fail, I will definitely not let you go."
Obito waved his hands and cheered for Kakashi.
Now, Obito and Kakashi have a faint bond because of Rin.
"Kakashi, as my lifelong opponent, I also won't allow you to fail."
Guy also cheered for Kakashi.
"Hey, Satoru, Kakashi has already surpassed you, don't you feel ashamed as his older brother?"
Asuma nudged Satoru with his elbow and said.
"Asuma."
Kurenai said softly next to Asuma, her tone seemed a bit reproachful. She felt that Asuma's words would make Satoru feel embarrassed.
"Of course not, after all, Kakashi is my little brother. The better he is, the happier I am."
Hearing Satoru's answer, both Asuma and Kurenai were slightly stunned. They didn't expect Satoru to think so openly, and they thought Satoru was very big hearted.
Then, Asakawa Kosuke directly announced the content of Kakashi's graduation assessment.
"Alright, since you are ready, your next assessment is to withstand ten moves from a Chunin. If you can do this, you will be able to graduate smoothly from the ninja academy and become a Genin."
As soon as Asakawa Kosuke's words fell, there was an uproar among the students.
"Isn't this assessment a bit too difficult?"
Asuma said with a frown.
You know, they are not even Genin now, and they are fighting with a Chunin. They have no chance of winning at all.
Although some of them have individual strengths that have reached the level of Genin, there is still a big difference between them and Chunin.
However, Asuma then noticed the smile on Satoru's face.
"Are you happy that Kakashi can't pass the assessment?"
Asuma asked directly. If this is the case, Asuma would think that Satoru is too hypocritical. After all, if Asuma's guess is true, then Satoru just said something against his heart in front of him and Kurenai.
"No, I just think that this assessment is too simple for Kakashi. If he were to defeat a Chunin, it might be a bit difficult for Kakashi, but just to withstand ten moves, it's not a problem."
Hearing this, both Asuma and Kurenai frowned.
"Are you so confident in Kakashi?"
"Of course, because he is my little brother."
Satoru said with a smile. In this half year, Satoru would fight with Kakashi once or twice almost every month. Although the result of each time was Satoru's victory, Kakashi's progress in this half year was definitely not small.
Perhaps there is still a big gap between Satoru and Kakashi, but for other peers, Kakashi has already left them far behind.
At this time, a ninja with a forehead protector walked to the opposite side of Kakashi. Looking at the other's face, he seemed to be only about eleven or twelve years old.
"You are that genius Hatake Kakashi, right? Although I just became a Chunin this year, I am definitely not someone a brat like you can deal with. If you don't want to get beaten up, you better surrender."
The other side started talking to Kakashi as soon as he came up, and there was a bit of mockery in his tone.
Hearing this, Kakashi frowned slightly.
And Satoru below spoke again.
"It seems that Kakashi should be able to defeat him in this assessment."
"Really? Even if the other party is not old, he is still a Chunin."
Asuma doubted.
"If it's a Chunin who is older and has more experience, Kakashi might not have a chance to win, but the other party is just a kid."
But hearing this, Asuma, Kurenai, and a few people around all showed a somewhat awkward expression.
"You are much younger than the kid you mentioned."
Asuma muttered to himself.
