After Umino Iruka left, Beizawa sat at his desk with his hands clasped beneath his nose.
He was thinking about how to become the Class Leader of First Year Class A.
It would have been perfectly reasonable if he were a student, but he was a teacher.
A teacher competing with students for the position of Class Leader? What kind of nonsense was that?
But he definitely had to complete this mission, because its reward was Water Release.
There were seven Chakra Natures in total. The common ones were wind, water, fire, earth, and lightning, while the hidden ones were yin and yang.
Ninjas were born with Chakra Natures, though they generally possessed only one or two.
For example, if someone possessed a lightning nature, cultivating Lightning Style would not only be easier, but its power would also be greater.
Beizawa had tested his Chakra Nature. He only had wind and fire.
One more nature meant quite a few more advantages, so naturally, he did not want to miss it.
Beizawa sighed and walked over to the single wooden bed behind his desk.
He lay on the bed, spreading himself into the shape of the character for wood.
Beizawa thought while he slept, eventually losing consciousness.
Second Year Class C.
The moment Toranosuke sat down, he noticed a small note on his desk.
He opened the note in confusion.
There was only one sentence written on it: Don't leave after school tomorrow.
The signature was a name he knew quite well—Hinata Hyuga.
"Since when did that crying Byakugan ugly freak get so bold?"
Toranosuke asked with a look of surprise.
"Boss, did you get a note too?"
Two boys around his age came over and asked.
"What is this supposed to mean?"
Toranosuke asked as he looked at the three identical notes.
"Are we going? Could it be a trap?"
One of the boys asked uncertainly. "She is the eldest daughter of the Hyuga Clan, after all."
"Of course we're going!"
Toranosuke snorted. "Adults won't interfere in matters between children."
That was precisely why he could bully boys and girls alike at school.
The ninja world respected strength above all else.
If Hyuga Hiashi stepped in to discipline them, he would be ridiculed by all the major ninja clans.
"Then we've definitely got this!"
The boy said with absolute certainty.
"Of course! Three against one—the advantage is ours!"
Toranosuke nodded confidently. "I hope this time will be entertaining enough for us!"
"Wise words, Boss!"
The two boys immediately flattered him.
With one blink and another, the lunch break was over.
Beizawa sat up and yawned.
He had already formed a preliminary plan for becoming Class Leader.
In short, he would abandon all martial ethics and trick the system.
The system had only told him to become Class Leader. It had never specified for how long.
Beizawa washed his face, checked the time, and headed for the classroom.
The moment he reached the door, the class bell rang.
"Not bad. My timing is pretty accurate."
Beizawa chuckled and walked up to the podium.
"Teacher Beizawa!"
Ino Yamanaka stood up and waved at him like a cheerleader.
Before sitting down, she did not forget to shoot Sakura Haruno a smug look.
"..."
Sakura Haruno pursed her lips.
Although Beizawa was handsome, he was not their age. One day, he would grow old before they did.
She turned to Sasuke Uchiha and gave him a sweet smile.
Sasuke Uchiha paid her no attention.
In his heart, there was only Itachi Uchiha and Fugaku Uchiha.
He wanted to improve himself too badly, then earn their praise.
Women would only affect his training.
"Let's begin class."
Beizawa nodded at Ino Yamanaka and asked, "Do you know who founded Konoha?"
"I know!"
Naruto Uzumaki hurriedly said, "Hashirama Senju!"
"More accurately, it was the Senju Clan."
Beizawa corrected him. "Both the First Hokage and the Second Hokage came from the Senju Clan."
"Teacher Beizawa."
Naruto Uzumaki asked in confusion, "Why aren't there any Senju Clan ninjas now?"
"There are, there are."
Beizawa smiled. "For example, Lady Tsunade, one of the Konoha Sannin, is a ninja of the Senju Clan."
At that moment, Sasuke Uchiha raised his hand.
"Sasuke."
Beizawa called on him.
"My brother said that the Uchiha Clan was also one of Konoha's founders."
Sasuke Uchiha stood and said.
After he finished speaking, many of the students looked confused.
Aside from students from ninja clans, such as Hinata Hyuga and Shikamaru Nara, they did not know much about the Uchiha Clan's ancestral glory.
After all, the Uchiha Clan was now in the awkward position of having a terrible reputation.
Especially after the Nine-Tails' Rampage, their compound had been forced to move to the outskirts of Konoha, where they were also kept under surveillance.
"Correct."
Beizawa nodded. "It was the Senju Clan and the Uchiha Clan that ended the chaotic Warring States and founded Konoha."
Just as he had expected, everything his brother said was true.
Sasuke Uchiha wore a proud expression, feeling completely satisfied.
"Today, we will be talking about the story of Hashirama Senju, the First Hokage."
Beizawa slapped the desk and struck a dramatic pose. "Long, long ago, there was a family..."
His status as the best teacher was not earned solely through Hiruzen Sarutobi. His own teaching ability had also played a major part.
After all, Beizawa was someone who had crossed over from another world, with broad knowledge and experience.
Compared to the rigid teachers at the ninja academy, he could always come up with fresh ideas.
Children did not like attending class, but they liked listening to stories.
So Beizawa imitated a storyteller or comic dialogue performer as he taught them.
The dismissal bell rang.
"...If you want to know what happened next, listen for the next installment."
Beizawa gathered his materials and said, "Class dismissed."
"Ahhh! Why did you stop there?"
"Why does Teacher Beizawa's class pass so quickly?"
"Classes can actually be this fun? I want to attend class for the rest of my life!"
Only after Beizawa left did the students, still wanting more, come back to their senses.
Sasuke Uchiha frowned slightly.
In the story, the Uchiha Clan had been every bit as powerful and imposing as the Senju Clan.
But how had the Uchiha Clan become what it was now?
After hesitating for a few seconds, Sasuke Uchiha decided to go home and ask his brother, Itachi Uchiha.
As for Beizawa, he had yet to earn Sasuke Uchiha's approval.
After all, the Uchiha had never been inferior to anyone in their lives. They only respected the strong.
"Teacher Beizawa really does teach better. Sakura, you... you jerk!"
The moment Ino Yamanaka turned around, she saw Sakura Haruno running toward Sasuke Uchiha again.
Hinata Hyuga glanced at her, unable to understand the friendship between the two girls.
"Hinata, what do you think?"
Noticing her gaze, Ino Yamanaka asked.
"Mm."
Hinata Hyuga froze for a moment, then nodded. "It was very good."
She suddenly thought of her father, Hyuga Hiashi.
Whenever he taught her Gentle Fist, he always wore a stern expression and was extremely strict.
She had always been introverted, and under that double pressure, she ended up learning terribly.
If it were Beizawa instead, she felt she would definitely have had a much easier time.
Thinking that, Hinata Hyuga hurriedly shook her head and drove away those messy thoughts.
Her upbringing did not allow her to indulge in such unrealistic fantasies.
