"Me? My name is Yoruichi. Your turn."
Yoruichi opened the "New Shinobi Instructor's Guide" and read aloud: "Talk about what you like, what you hate, your dreams, your interests, and so on."
The three looked at Yoruichi. "Teacher, you go first!"
Yoruichi raised an eyebrow. "I'm the teacher, or are you the teacher? You go first, from left to right!"
"I'll go first!"
Obito proudly adjusted his headband and grinned. "I'm Uchiha Obito. What I like... The most annoying thing? War!"
"My dream is to become Hokage, end this war, and make my family, the village, and everyone recognize me!"
Kakashi burst out laughing. "You as Hokage? You'd help old ladies cross the street, not lead a village!"
Obito fumed. "Kakashi, what's that supposed to mean? You think you're all that?"
"I'm Uchiha Obito of the Uchiha clan! I'll surpass you, especially after my Sharingan awakens!"
Kakashi smirked. "The Uchiha clan are elites, right? You don't even need Sharingan to be strong."
Obito clenched his teeth. "What's that supposed to mean?!"
Rin quickly intervened. "Okay, okay, stop arguing. Teacher's watching."
Yoruichi observed them with mild amusement. This was just like a love-hate relationship.
"Your turn, Rin Nohara?"
Rin straightened up. "Yes, Sensei! My name is Rin Nohara! What I like most is... cake! What I dislike... curry rice. My dream is to become a medical ninja and save lives on the battlefield!"
Yoruichi nodded. "Good. You're on the right path."
This little girl would definitely be the heart of Team 7, no doubt. Without her, Obito and Kakashi probably wouldn't have survived.
Rin smiled and looked at Yoruichi. He seemed like a good teacher.
Then, Yoruichi turned to Kakashi, who was standing there, acting like he was too cool for school.
Yoruichi couldn't help but ruffle Kakashi's wild white hair. "Kakashi, it's your turn."
Kakashi slapped Yoruichi's hand away. "Sensei, you messed up my hair! I don't need to say anything. You already know who I am."
Yoruichi looked at the three kids, realizing they were all under 10 and had no clue about love.
"Ahem, okay, you all know each other now, and you know me. Again, I'm Yoruichi, your future instructor."
"Now, let's move on. Tomorrow we begin."
The three kids stared at him, waiting.
"Teacher, what's the task?"
"Survival training in the wild."
Obito grinned. "We did survival drills back in school!"
Yoruichi smirked. "This drill is different. Your opponent is me."
"Teacher, you?"
"Teacher, that sounds strange."
Yoruichi grinned. "Yeah, well, be prepared. The failure rate is over 66%. Out of 30 graduates, only 10 will pass. The rest will go back to school to be retrained. Got it?"
Obito's eyes widened. Rin stared, silent. Kakashi stayed quiet.
"Tomorrow, 9 AM, Konoha Forest. Meet at the Third Base gate. Don't be late."
As Yoruichi finished speaking, he vanished in a puff of smoke, leaving the trio stunned.
Rin rubbed her eyes. "Did... did Teacher Yoruichi vanish?"
"Whoa, that's crazy!" Obito exclaimed.
Kakashi sneered. "Idiot. It's just the Body Flicker Technique."
"Who are you calling an idiot?"
Before Obito could retort, Rin jumped in. "Stop! Think about tomorrow."
Obito frowned. "The teacher is just bluffing. He can't eliminate everyone. That's too extreme."
"I didn't lie to you."
Obito leapt up in shock.
"Ah, Sensei, how do you do that? It's like you're a ghost!"
Yoruichi's voice echoed. "Obito, you need to toughen up. Oh, and don't forget your ninja tools. Also, skip breakfast. If you throw up, don't blame me."
Before they could react, Yoruichi transformed into a piece of wood.
Rin picked up the wooden figure, stunned.
Kakashi muttered, "This is the Substitution Technique… What we just saw was Yoruichi-sensei's substitute."
