After the physical fitness test, all the students of First Year Class A were sprawled on the ground, panting and utterly unconcerned about appearances.
Yet all eyes were fixed on Kitazawa and Iruka, who stood nearby preparing to announce the rankings live.
“I wonder how many points I got…”
Sakura sneaked a glance at the calm, cool Sasuke and broke into a dreamy smile. ...

Kitazawa couldn’t help smiling.
He was reminded of fishermen back in his previous life, who’d strut around bragging after catching a giant fish.
He picked up his pen and marked down a score of eighty points on the roster.
Naruto’s performance was extrao...

Kitazawa arrived early at the Ninja Academy.
The training ground, usually quiet at this hour, was already lively with students stretching and warming up.
“Kitazawa!”
Mizuki called out, striding toward him.
“Mizuki,” Kitazawa replied with a small nod. “Has Iruka arrived yet?”
“He’s probably still in bed,” Mizuki said with a ...

“All of you, pens down. Stay seated.”
Kitazawa rose from his chair and announced firmly.
The classroom instantly erupted into a low murmur of groans and frantic whispers.
Luckily, over the past month, Kitazawa had built up enough authority that even students who hadn’t finished their exams reluctantly put their pens aside.<...
2025-07-06 15:45:51 +0000 UTC View PostAfter classes ended, Kitazawa left the academy and headed straight for Kurenai’s home.
After knocking and hearing her voice give permission, he pushed open the door and stepped inside.
In the living room, Kurenai and Yakumo sat side by side.
Neither of them wore shoes; their two pairs of pale, delicate feet—one small, one slender and graceful—rested on the wooden floor.<...

There was only one day left until Class 1-A’s first monthly exam.
“Clone Jutsu will be a required skill on the practical exam. I’ve gone over all the key points these past two weeks,” Kitazawa announced, standing on the Ninja Academy’s training field. His voice was calm but carried a sense of urgency. “Today’s your last class befor...
2025-07-06 14:35:55 +0000 UTC View PostAfter wrapping up his class, Kitazawa returned to his office.
Trailing behind him were Hinata and Kurama, who had both grown surprisingly comfortable with skipping lessons altogether.
“Yakumo.”
Kitazawa settled into his chair and asked, “How’s your reading going?”
“I’ve finished three books already,” Yakumo Kurama replied calmly.
Perhaps it was due ...

And more importantly—if one mission rewarded such a boost, then surely more would follow. Stack those rewards infinitely, and surpas...

Inside Kitazawa’s office, Hinata sneaked a glance at Kurama and felt oddly relieved.
Finally, someone else had joined the truancy club.
She’d always thought her half-day absences were unmatched at the Ninja Academy—but Kurama was on another level entirely, boldly skipping full days and only showing up for practical combat classes.

2025-07-05 01:45:32 +0000 UTC View PostSasuke slumped to the ground, his face clouded with frustration.
In less than two weeks, he’d lost his first-place spot in physical training.
His goal upon entering the Ninja Academy had always been clear: follow in Itachi’s footsteps, dominate the academy in a single year, and graduate at the top.
Yet now… it felt like his ambitions had collapsed before they’d even be...
2025-07-05 01:44:47 +0000 UTC View Post“As long as you’re happy,” Kitazawa said with a resigned smile.
Naruto and Gai already knew each other, so there was no reason for him to intervene. Besides, Kitazawa hadn’t technically done anything wrong, so Hiruzen likely wouldn’t come knocking on his door over it.
'As for Minato Namikaze…' Kitazawa thought wryly. 'Well, I wish him luck. Hopefully, he’l...
2025-07-05 01:43:52 +0000 UTC View PostKitazawa snapped out of his thoughts and noticed that Ino and Hinata had paused their training.
They couldn’t help it—Uchiha Sasuke was laughing so loudly that it echoed across the training field.
Both girls stared in confusion, expressions practically screaming “Sasuke, what on earth are you laughing about?”
“Don’t mind him,” Kitazawa said, clearing his...
2025-07-05 01:42:54 +0000 UTC View PostHyuga Hinata wandered aimlessly down the street, lost in thought.
When Kitazawa was by her side, skipping class felt easy—she simply followed his lead. But now, alone, she didn’t quite know what to do with herself.
After a few minutes of hesitant steps, an idea sparked in her mind, and she turned back toward a small grove she knew well.
This time, fear didn’t grip her he...

Hiruzen fell silent for a few moments, stroking his beard as he pondered. “Although it’s a difficult path, the possibilities are enormous.”
The concept of a Psychological Medical Ninja was uncharted territory.
The biggest challenge was the complete absence of any existing psychological ninjutsu. Yakumo Kurama would have to pioneer new ...
2025-07-05 01:41:17 +0000 UTC View Post"Thank you, Kitazawa-sensei," Yakumo said as she stood and bowed deeply.
The gloom that once clouded her eyes had vanished, replaced by a blazing determination that lit up her entire expression.
"It's too early to thank me just yet," Kitazawa said with a warm smile. "The reason I came today is to bring you back to the Ninja Academy."
"Really?" Yakumo froze for a moment, stunne...
2025-07-05 01:40:20 +0000 UTC View Post“Did I wake you?” Kitazawa asked, feeling slightly embarrassed.
“No, I was just about to have breakfast,” Kurenai replied with a gentle shake of her head. “Have you eaten? If not, I can whip up some scrambled eggs for you.”
“No need,” Kitazawa said. “I always have breakfast at Ichiraku Ramen.”
“Oh, that’s right—Ichiraku is practically next door to you...
2025-07-05 01:39:30 +0000 UTC View PostAfter lunch, Hinata returned to the classroom for her afternoon nap.
Meanwhile, the rest of the students sat sprawled across the training field, utterly exhausted and far too tired to care about their image.
Kitazawa gazed at them, momentarily recalling the physical fitness tests from his own university days in his previous life.
Back then, running a thousand meters had felt l...

The moment Kitazawa stepped into the staff office, he found an unexpected visitor waiting for him.

Mizuki stood up with a bright smile, acting as though nothing was amiss.
He was good at wearing a mask, hiding any trace of the jealousy he harbored toward Kitazawa.

Kitazawa nodd...

Ino stepped forward, voice sweet as she tried to greet him.
But Sasuke didn’t spare her a single glance. He focused completely on channeling chakra into his feet, maintaining his balance against the tree trunk.
Ino’s face fell slightly, but she swallowed her pride and said nothing more. Instead, her eyes drifted toward Hinata.
At that moment, Hinata...

Gai stood and gave Kitazawa a thumbs-up. “Kitazawa, if you ever want to keep training in Taijutsu, you know where to find me.”
“Of course,” Kitazawa replied with an easy smile.

Gai grinned and turned to leave.

Two figures blurred and clashed in rapid motion, so fast their silhouettes were barely distinguishable.

Everything was spinning, and all she could feel was an overwhelming warmth and a soothing sense of peace.

Once again, Sasuke tumbled from the tree, landing hard on the ground.

To earn praise from his father and his older brother, he was willing to push himself to the brink.

He waved the bag of snacks in his hand, showing them off like trophies.

A sensei competing with his own students for class monitor? What kind of twisted system was this?
