_______________
Konoha.
Entrance of the Ninja Academy.
A crowd of parents stood at the gate, chatting.
These were the parents who had dropped off their children but hadn't left yet.
When Hanata and Kanda Rokuro arrived at the school gate, Hanata immediately dumped Rokuro there and said,
"Hurry up and go in. We're already seven minutes late!"
Rokuro didn't care in the slightest.
He walked into the school at a leisurely pace.
"What's seven minutes? The kids inside are already ten years behind me. Even if they study for twenty years, they won't be able to compare to me!"
Hanata couldn't be bothered to argue with Rokuro.
Rokuro acted like a pretentious show-off all day long; Hanata was already used to it.
Walking inside the school.
On the left was a massive open space, which also served as the training ground.
Currently, both the newly enrolled children and the older students were standing on the training ground.
On the stage at the very front, Hiruzen Sarutobi was giving a speech.
Rokuro's sudden appearance attracted everyone's attention.
The older students were fine, but the new students all looked at Rokuro with curiosity.
On the stage, Hiruzen also saw Rokuro.
He already knew that Rokuro didn't really want to go to school. However, he had insisted on Rokuro coming, with the goal of letting Rokuro form a bond within Konoha.
Even if Rokuro didn't ultimately obey him, as long as he didn't betray Konoha, that would be enough.
"Big Brother!"
"I'm over here!"
"Come over here quickly!"
While everyone was looking at Rokuro, someone shouted happily a few times.
Everyone looked.
It was a blond new student from this year's batch.
Rokuro didn't even need to look to know that the person calling him was Uzumaki Naruto.
He glanced at him, turned away with disdain, and walked toward a line of girls.
"Who wants to stand with a damn guy like you? I want to stand with the little sisters!"
The excited Naruto's expression froze instantly.
However!
Since Rokuro had acknowledged him, his mood improved a little.
There were sixty or seventy new students this year.
Among them were twelve girls, and they were all standing together.
Rokuro sidled up to their group, squeezed in front of one of the girls, and said,
"Hey, little sister, how about letting me cut in line? I'll treat you to BBQ after school!"
The little girl looked confused.
She didn't know how to answer.
Naruto's shout earlier had already interrupted Hiruzen's speech.
Now, seeing what Rokuro was doing, Hiruzen couldn't help but scold him,
"Kanda Rokuro, go stand at the very back! I'll deal with you after I finish my speech!"
Rokuro pouted and walked to the very back of the girls' line to stand.
His attitude!
Nonchalant and sloppy.
It felt less like he was here to attend school and more like he was just wandering around.
Seeing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi was rendered quite speechless. However, he couldn't say much right now; after all, the other children were watching, and some words weren't suitable for their ears.
Sighing internally, Hiruzen continued his speech.
However!
The students clearly weren't in the mood to listen anymore.
They kept glancing curiously at Kanda Rokuro from time to time.
Hiruzen spoke for a while longer, but seeing that none of the children were listening, he simply sped up and finished his speech. Anyway, the important parts had already been said before Rokuro arrived. The remaining nonsense didn't matter whether he said it or not.
After Hiruzen finished.
A few school officials took the stage to say a few words.
It was all boring nonsense, and Rokuro couldn't be bothered to listen.
His gaze swept through the children, looking for the people he wanted to find.
Uh!
Uzumaki Naruto.
Uchiha Sasuke.
Nara Shikamaru, Yamanaka Ino, Akimichi Chōji.
Aburame Shino, Inuzuka Kiba, Hyūga Hinata, and Haruno Sakura were all there.
However!
The fact that Hyūga Hinata came was likely a compromise by the Hyūga Clan towards Konoha Village.
It should be known that in the past, there was no precedent for the Hyūga Main House sending their heirs to the Academy.
Hiruzen Sarutobi really had some tricks up his sleeve.
From the standpoint of Konoha Village, what Hiruzen did wasn't wrong.
If the clan forces within the village were too powerful, it would be hard for the entire village to have cohesion.
But for the Hyūga Clan, doing this was a bit too excessive.
No wonder that later on, the Hyūga Clan lived in seclusion and didn't want to be in the limelight anymore. Nor did many strong individuals appear from them. They probably understood Hiruzen's intentions and made that choice.
Rokuro let his thoughts run wild.
The teachers on stage finally finished speaking.
Aside from the new students, the other children followed their respective teachers to their classrooms.
Leaving behind the 67 new students present.
Once the other children had almost all left, Hiruzen brought two teachers in front of the new students and introduced them:
"Children, these two will be your teachers from now on, Iruka and Mizuki. Why don't you introduce yourselves to the teachers?"
As soon as Hiruzen finished speaking.
Uzumaki Naruto jumped out and shouted loudly:
"I am Uzumaki Naruto, the man who will become Hokage!"
Hiruzen looked at Naruto and smiled.
"Alright, Naruto. I only asked for your name, nothing else. Now, let's start self-introductions one by one from left to right!"
The children were obedient and began to introduce themselves.
