To Obito, the news of Yuu's graduation felt like New Year's had come early.
He no longer had to worry about Yuu suddenly taking a dislike to him and coming over to slash him a couple of times.
Kurenai and Rin, on the other hand, were deeply reluctant to see Yuu graduate early.
But for Tanaka Shuichi, the days of suffering had only just begun.
At the Ninja Academy after school had ended.
"Yuu, did you understand this question?"
Tanaka Shuichi asked carefully.
"Huh? What did you say?"
Yuu was suddenly jolted awake from his sleep and looked at Tanaka Shuichi with some displeasure.
This Teacher hadn't been this long-winded before. Why was he so annoying now?
"Uh, you're tired, right? Then sleep a little longer."
Seeing Yuu's dissatisfied gaze, Tanaka Shuichi was practically on the verge of tears.
"Seriously, making me tutor Yuu in theory? What kind of joke is this?!"
That was right. Tanaka Shuichi was currently giving Yuu intensive tutoring.
After all, the first round of the Chunin Exams was a written test!
If Yuu couldn't even pass the written test, there would be no point talking about the second round.
So Hiruzen Sarutobi had ordered Tanaka Shuichi to give Yuu intensive tutoring!
He had to raise Yuu's written test score!
For Hiruzen Sarutobi, it was just a single sentence.
But for Tanaka Shuichi, how could it possibly be that easy?
He couldn't hit Yuu, nor could he scold him.
And during tutoring, Yuu often drank himself to sleep.
This job was impossible!
"Yuu-kun, just listen a little. Teacher Tanaka hasn't had it easy either."
"Yeah, Yuu. Aren't Kurenai and I here with you?"
Seeing that Tanaka Shuichi was about to cry, Kurenai and Rin felt a little sorry for him.
After all, he was their Teacher, and he had always taken good care of them.
So they tried to persuade Yuu.
Tanaka Shuichi was so touched by the sight that he nearly cried.
"Fine, I'll study a bit. Let me tell you, I'm a genius. If I study something like this, I'll learn it in no time."
Hearing Kurenai and Rin say that, Yuu decided to give them some face.
"Mm, I believe in Yuu-kun."
Kurenai and Rin looked at Yuu with admiration.
Yuu picked up the textbook, widened his eyes, and began reading seriously.
"Um, Yuu, your book is upside down."
Tanaka Shuichi had just begun to feel relieved, but upon taking a closer look, he immediately felt terrible.
Yuu had even held the book upside down.
"So that's why it was upside down."
Yuu suddenly understood. No wonder he hadn't been able to understand a single word.
But then Yuu realized something else—wasn't that embarrassing?
"You're the one with the big mouth! I did it on purpose, got it? If I can learn it upside down, then I'll score even higher when I answer it the right way around!"
With a smack, Yuu snapped the textbook shut, his face full of anger.
"I'm not studying anymore! To hell with studying!"
Still grumbling and cursing, Yuu shut the textbook and staggered off with Kurenai and Rin.
