Chapter 3 - Chapter 3 Graduation

No words were spoken overnight, and it was the next morning in a blink of an eye.

Today is the graduation day for this class, and Kagura got up early in the morning to make breakfast for himself.

What?

You asked what ninjutsu he drew last night?

Don't worry, the answer will be revealed in the next few chapters.

I have to say that as a villager of Konoha Village, Kagura is lucky.

Because both of his parents died on the battlefield as ninjas, he can receive a living allowance every month as an orphan.

Although it is not much, it is enough to support his living needs.

He still maintains the Chinese eating habits, and after eating a portion of hot noodles he made himself, he set off for school leisurely.

In order to celebrate the graduation of students, the Ninja Academy today also decorated the school gate with ribbons and other decorations.

The graduation assessment for Ninja School students was completed a week ago.

Unlike other schools, graduating from Ninja School does not mean that you can graduate successfully after studying step by step for many years.

Instead, after learning, children who have a certain level of attainment in ninjutsu and have learned the three-body technique.

Only then will they graduate from the Ninja School and be granted the status of Genin.

Those who fail the exam will either be ordinary people or repeat the grade to continue studying at the Ninja Academy.

So even the students who graduated with Kagura and others in the same batch have different ages.

Kagura, who graduated with the first grade at the age of 8, is also a new record of the Ninja Academy.

Kagura and others naturally don't need to go to class today. After arriving at school, everyone was gathered in the auditorium.

After listening to the speech of Sarutobi Hiruzen, who will soon become the third generation Hokage, and issuing forehead protection to all students, their last day at the Ninja Academy ended.

Of course, it also foreshadows the birth of a new batch of Genin.

After disbanding on the spot, the atmosphere of the school became lively again.

Only on this day were the parents of the children allowed to enter the school.

Some students were holding the Konoha forehead protectors they had just received, and were excitedly telling their parents something.

Some parents were proudly holding their children, and were telling them seriously what to pay attention to after becoming ninjas.

Of course, as mentioned before.

In Konoha Village, a considerable number of children are war orphans whose parents have died.

At this time, Kagura was playing with the forehead protector in her hand while chatting with Orochimaru, who was also alone.

In fact, during the three years of getting along, Orochimaru was far from the perverted image in his original impression.

At this time, Orochimaru had not fallen into the abyss of darkness. Although he was a little taciturn, he was generally a polite and good child.

Looking at Orochimaru's fair skin, Kagura said:

"So, the three of you were finally assigned to the same class, right?"

In fact, there was no need to ask. Kagura, who had long known the plot, naturally knew that the three would be assigned to the same class after graduation.

Orochimaru nodded, and then asked:

"Yes, yes.

What about you, Kagura?

Which class were you assigned to?

Do you know who you will team up with later?"

Hearing his question, Kagura shook her head to indicate that she didn't know.

Seeing Kagura's statement, Orochimaru continued to ask in confusion:

"Huh?

Didn't you ask other classmates?

Even if the teacher didn't notify us, as long as we knew where we needed to gather tomorrow, we would know roughly who we would be assigned to."

Hearing this, Kagura touched her hair embarrassedly and said:

"Well, you also know the relationship between me and those classmates...

So I didn't ask..."

Hearing this, Orochimaru also shut up at the right time.

The relationship between Kagura and his classmates?

Including himself, most of the class had been beaten by him at least once.

How good could this relationship be.

Fortunately, someone came over to them and resolved the embarrassment at this time.

Two people walked towards them, one of them had dazzling silver hair, standing upright, and wearing a combat uniform similar to that of a jonin.

The other one had a watermelon head, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and wore an indescribable green sportswear.

These two were Hatake Sakumo and Might Day.

Well, they were the fathers of Kakashi and Kai in the future.

Yes, these two were also students in the same class as Kagura and the others. It can be said that they were the only two male students in the class who had not been beaten by Kagura.

So relatively speaking, Kagura's relationship with them was not bad.

Hatake Sakumo, who had already put the Konoha forehead protector on his head, walked in front of Kagura, smiled happily and said:

"The results of this exam are still not as good as yours.

But I will definitely become a chunin faster than you."

Looking at this passionate silver-haired boy in front of him, who would have thought that he was the father of Kakashi who stared with dead eyes all day long?

Might Day on the side also excitedly interrupted:

"Haha, it turns out that a man needs a strong rival in his life.

Don't worry, I will definitely become a Chunin faster than you!"

Kagura narrowed his eyes, turned his head and glanced at the shiny watermelon head, and said helplessly:

"But...

I remember you didn't graduate this time?..."

Yes, although they were in the same batch of students, Might Day did not pass the assessment this time, and he was held back.

Hearing Kagura's complaints, Might Day didn't care.

Instead, he gave Kagura a thumbs up, showing his white and shining teeth and laughed:

"Haha, it doesn't matter!

My strong rival, is waiting for me to catch up on the road ahead!"

Sometimes Kagura really envied this inexplicable self-confidence.

After exchanging a few words, the two left.

At this time, Tsunade walked towards them.

Behind her, there was another woman following slowly.

The woman had red hair, tied in a pair of buns, and wore a crown-like ornament on her head.

There was a purple diamond mark on her forehead, and two talisman-like ornaments were hung on her two buns. She was wearing a white kimono.

It was Tsunade's grandmother, Senju Hashirama's wife, and the first generation of Konoha Village Jinchūriki - Uzumaki Mito.

Seeing this person walking towards them, Kagura and Orochimaru hurriedly bowed.

For this person who insisted on the belief of "loving the village, supporting and protecting the people you love", and spent his whole life protecting the existence of the village.

Kagura still sincerely respected.

Although she is over 40 years old, Uzumaki Mito, who still maintains a beautiful appearance, smiled at the two and said:

"Tsunade is in trouble for you two to take care of her at school."

Before the two could respond, she tilted her head slightly, looked at Kagura and continued:

"Are you the strongest boy of this generation of Uchiha?"

Looking at the kind woman in front of her, Kagura felt a sense of tension.

Just kidding, don't look at her harmless appearance, she is the current Nine-Tails Jinchūriki.

And because of the effect of the Nine-Tails Chakra, it is said that she has a keen sense of malice.

Feeling the scrutiny of Uzumaki Mito, Kagura felt uncomfortable all over.

Fortunately, the scrutiny did not last long, Uzumaki Mito smiled slightly, and the atmosphere suddenly became soft.

She nodded and said:

"Don't be nervous.

Well... I can feel that you are a good child.

I believe that the future of Uchiha can have a better future in your hands."

Looking at Kagura who was a little overwhelmed, she did not continue to say anything, but turned to Tsunade beside her and said:

"Have a good time with your friends today, but don't come back too late."

Tsunade, who usually looks like a little girl, is as well-behaved as a rabbit at this time.

She lowered her head and responded obediently:

"I know, grandma."

With the departure of Uzumaki Mito, the atmosphere among the crowd became relaxed again.

Tsunade, who returned to her usual appearance, raised her head and said to Kagura:

"Idiot, what do you think about my invitation yesterday?"

Faced with this question, Kagura was confused.

"No, didn't I refuse clearly yesterday?"

Hearing Kagura's answer of still refusing, Tsunade frowned.

As if she had thought of something, her frown smoothed out, and she looked at Kagura with a malicious smile and said:

"If you don't come,

I will tell my grandmother that you bullied me."

What?

You are being unreasonable!
