Carrying the Name of Hokage

Beizawa nodded slightly after watching for a while.

Sasuke Uchiha is indeed one of the main characters in the original work, with great talent.

He had already found the knack for cultivating chakra nature, and success was only a matter of time.

Beizawa formed hand seals and created a shadow clone.

The shadow clone stayed to look after Sasuke Uchiha, while the main body returned to his office.

"Teacher Beizawa."

Hinata Hyuga stopped writing and greeted him.

"What are you planning to write for your speech?"

Beizawa walked behind her and asked with a smile.

"I plan to share some study methods."

Hinata Hyuga turned to look at him and asked cautiously, "Is that okay?"

"Of course."

Beizawa patted her head and said, "Hinata, you're the top student in the entire grade now, you should be confident."

"Mhm."

Hinata Hyuga felt a warmth in her heart and gained a lot of motivation.

"You write first, and I'll help you with it after you're done,"

Beizawa returned to his desk.

He clasped his hands together and fell into thought.

Naruto Uzumaki's mission was to get him into the top ten in the next monthly exam.

Theoretically, it was unlikely.

The only way was rote memorization, by letting him know in advance the scope of knowledge that would be tested in the monthly exam.

As for the practical exam, getting into the top ten was a great hope.

Naruto Uzumaki could get first place in the physical fitness test, and if his clone jutsu and ninja tool throwing improved, there would be no problem.

Beizawa took out a scroll and started creating questions.

He originally wanted Naruto Uzumaki to skip class and practice problems, but Naruto hadn't fully mastered the knowledge taught in class, so skipping class would only harm him.

Then there was only one way: practice problems after school.

Time came to the afternoon.

"I'm done, Teacher Beizawa."

Hinata Hyuga walked up to him nervously.

Beizawa took the speech draft and began to read it.

As she had said, it was all about her study methods.

"The ending is missing a part."

Beizawa met her gaze and said with a smile, "That's where you add value."

Hinata Hyuga showed a confused expression.

"It's okay, I'll teach you."

Beizawa picked up his pen and wrote, "Under the leadership of the Hokage, we must inherit the Will of Fire..."

Hinata Hyuga stood on tiptoe, leaned over the desk, and read carefully.

She tilted her head, her face flattened, and she felt like she understood, yet didn't.

"Alright, we'll perfect it tomorrow."

Beizawa put down his pen and said, "Let's go to class."

"O-okay."

Hinata Hyuga followed Beizawa to the training ground.

She had already delayed a day due to writing the speech, and now only the last class remained, which was the practical training class.

"Today's class content is still clone jutsu. For students who failed the last monthly exam, I will provide focused guidance in this class."

Beizawa stood in front of First Year Class A and said with a smile.

Many people showed pained expressions.

"Students who have mastered clone jutsu can move freely."

Beizawa formed hand seals and created a shadow clone, saying, "Those who failed, follow my shadow clone."

First Year Class A was immediately divided into two groups.

"Ino, can I go with you for special training?"

Sakura Haruno grabbed Ino Yamanaka's arm and asked.

"Are you going for special training? I don't even want to call you out."

Ino Yamanaka retorted.

Sakura Haruno wanted to undergo special training for two reasons: first, because she had mastered the Clone Jutsu, and second, because she wanted to see Sasuke Uchiha.

"I'll warn you first."

Ino Yamanaka said with a serious tone, "No matter your reason, if you want to train together, you have to be serious enough."

Sakura Haruno couldn't help but be taken aback.

She felt that her best friend had become quite unfamiliar, possessing a sense of maturity.

"I understand, I'll train hard," Sakura Haruno gritted her teeth and said.

As long as she could see Sasuke Uchiha, enduring some hardship was nothing.

"I'll take you to see Teacher Beizawa."

Ino Yamanaka pulled her along and brought her before Beizawa.

"Teacher Beizawa," Sakura Haruno asked with anticipation, "Can I join the special training?"

Beizawa pondered for a moment and was about to agree.

Whether there was one more person or one less person made no difference to him.

After all, the reason he was conducting special training for them was primarily to complete the mission given by the system.

Just then, four lines of text appeared before his eyes.

[As the class representative, you should try your best to fulfill your classmates' requests.]

[Current Mission: Help your classmate Sakura Haruno complete the Tree Climbing Training.]

[Mission Reward: Hemostasis Technique.]

[Accept?]

Whoa, a good deed like this?

As expected of one of the main heroines in the original story.

The Hemostasis Technique is a D-rank medical ninjutsu that, as the name suggests, can stop bleeding from ordinary wounds.

"Let's go to the training grounds," Beizawa nodded and said.

"Thank you, Teacher Beizawa!" Sakura Haruno excitedly waved her little fists.

The group arrived at the training grounds not far away.

Besides Ino Yamanaka and Sakura Haruno, Hinata Hyuga was also present.

Naruto Uzumaki wasn't there because his Clone Jutsu wasn't perfected yet.

Yakumo Kurama was studying Genjutsu with Kurenai Yuhi.

"Sasuke-kun!" Sakura Haruno shouted loudly as soon as she saw Sasuke Uchiha.

But she received no response.

"Silence," Beizawa reminded her, "He's practicing Chakra nature transformation and cannot be disturbed in the slightest."

"Sorry." Sakura Haruno quickly covered her mouth.

"Sakura, my Shadow Clones will teach you the Tree Climbing Training to help you improve your Chakra control," Beizawa instructed. "Ino and Hinata, you will come with me."

Under his lead, the three of them arrived at the artificial lake on the school grounds.

"Today, we will be doing the Water Walking Training," Beizawa said. With a leap, Chakra condensed in his feet as he stepped onto the water's surface. He walked forward all the way to the other side of the lake before returning to solid ground.

"Water Walking is still a training for Chakra control, but it's more difficult than tree climbing," Beizawa explained. "Because water is a liquid, it cannot support much body weight, and with the slightest mistake, you'll fall into the lake."

Ino Yamanaka nodded with fighting spirit.

In contrast, Hinata Hyuga's face was full of worry.

Although her chakra control was better than Ino Yamanaka's, different personalities manifested in different ways.

"Don't worry too much."

Beizawa smiled and said, "I'll pull you out before you fall in."

"Then we'll be counting on you, Teacher Beizawa."

Ino Yamanaka smiled at Beizawa and walked into the lake.

"Go ahead."

Beizawa patted Hinata Hyuga's head and said.

"Mhm."

Hinata Hyuga exhaled, lifted her foot, and stepped onto the lake's surface.

Beizawa stood by the lake and watched.

When they began to falter, he quickly moved forward, caught them, and brought them back to the shore to rest.

The class ended quickly.

Beizawa called out to Naruto Uzumaki.

"This is for you."

Beizawa took out a scroll and said, "When you get home, finish this test paper."

"Huh?"

Naruto Uzumaki was dumbfounded.

"You ranked seventeenth in this month's exam. Don't you want to be in the top ten next month?" Beizawa asked.

"I do!"

Naruto Uzumaki looked at the test paper and gritted his teeth, agreeing, "I'll do it!"

"If you can get into the top ten in the next monthly exam, I'll give you an extra reward," Beizawa said with a smile. "Besides treating you to ramen, I'll also teach you a very powerful ninjutsu."

"Really?"

Naruto Uzumaki immediately perked up and said loudly, "Carrying the name of the future Hokage, I can definitely make it into the top ten!"

Beizawa's mouth twitched.

Such a familiar line. Where did I hear that before? Head-pat village?
