Ninja Academy

For the next few days, Hyuga Hiashi attended meetings at the Hokage building almost every day.

The meetings lasted for about half a month.

Although the meetings were over, it didn't mean things would calm down; the truly busy phase was just beginning.

All ninjas from Konoha who were outside were urgently recalled, and ninjas from various major clans were frequently mobilized. The atmosphere in the village became somewhat tense, making outsiders think a war was about to break out.

The major ninja villages next door almost misunderstood.

Konoha didn't know if other ninja villages misunderstood, and even if they did, they wouldn't care.

They were currently busy training Konoha's ninjas.

Yes, you heard that right.

Konoha was currently busy training ninjas who had graduated from the Ninja Academy many years ago.

It was called training, but they didn't teach much.

Besides making Sealing Jutsu a mandatory ninjutsu for every ninja, there wasn't much else.

It wasn't that they didn't want to make the Bizarre Creatures that suddenly appeared public. It was because Konoha discovered that although other ninja villages might have encountered these Bizarre Creatures, they didn't seem to pay much attention to them.

Konoha paid so much attention to the Bizarre Creatures because they had captured some and understood their strategic value.

But other ninja villages didn't seem to know. Since that was the case, Konoha didn't need to rush to make it public; they could just wait for those Bizarre Creatures to weaken the other ninja villages first...

Two years passed like this.

After two years, Hinata and the new generation of Konoha's major clans were all five years old.

It was time for them to enroll in school.

On this day, after her maid dressed Hinata beautifully, Hyuga Hiashi took her to the Ninja Academy.

Along the way, the adorable Hinata attracted quite a bit of attention, with a near 100% return rate.

Some of the gazes fell upon the two horns on Hinata's forehead.

Over the past two years, the two horns on Hinata's forehead had been slowly growing along with her.

When the horns were growing, Hinata couldn't help but touch them. It wasn't out of vanity, but because the growing horns were itchy.

Fortunately, Hinata had good willpower and could endure the itch.

However, the habit of touching her horns did remain.

She couldn't help but touch them whenever they itched, and over time, it became a habit.

Just now, feeling the gazes of passersby fall on her forehead, Hinata subconsciously touched her horns again.

"Mmm, they feel really good. As expected of my horns."

Thus, Hinata, under the gaze of passersby, arrived at the Ninja Academy.

Along the way, they met many parents taking their children to school, and Hyuga Hiashi greeted them all.

After escorting Hinata into the school gate, Hyuga Hiashi stood in front of the Ninja Academy, not following her further.

"Isn't this the Hyuga Patriarch? What, are you also here to send your child to school?"

Hinata hadn't walked a few steps when she heard someone greet her father and turned to see Uchiha Fugaku.

Beside him was a child with a cool, somewhat arrogant demeanor.

It was Uchiha Sasuke.

It had to be said that the Uchiha clan's genes were quite good; none of them were unattractive.

Especially the Sasuke brothers, they attracted countless little fangirls.

As Sasuke arrived at the Ninja Academy, several little girls passing by secretly looked at him, but with their parents around, they didn't dare to approach and ask for his name.

By the way, the boys were all captivated by Hinata.

Seeing Uchiha Fugaku, Hinata continued towards the teaching building. She had no interest in listening to what her father and Uchiha Fugaku were discussing.

At this moment, Hinata felt another gaze on her.

Through the panoramic view of her Byakugan, she knew the gaze was from Sasuke.

Let him look, it won't cost me anything.

However, wasn't Sasuke's gaze a bit too intense?

What Hinata didn't know was that although the Uchiha and Hyuga were Konoha's Two Great Dōjutsu Kekkei Genkai Clans, and the strategic value of the Byakugan during wartime was unimaginable, in itself, it was still somewhat inferior to the Sharingan.

This had led to the Hyuga always being at a disadvantage in confrontations with the Uchiha in the past.

But now, since Hinata had initially displayed her talent, and the Hyuga clan had Hinata, a genius, they had become more assertive after friction with the Uchiha clan.

Therefore, before school started, Uchiha Fugaku had specifically instructed his son to pay attention to Hyuga Hinata.

But looking at the situation, Sasuke seemed to have misunderstood...

After entering her classroom, Hinata looked around and found that the chubby Akimichi kid had already arrived. She then sat down behind the chubby kid.

What a prime location.

This was tough for Akimichi Choji, and Hinata's cuteness caused the classroom to fall silent the moment she entered. Everyone stared blankly as Hinata sat down behind Choji.

The young boys who couldn't see Hinata absolutely hated Choji.

They wanted to switch seats, but they were too embarrassed. Their malicious glares towards Choji intensified.

Choji: "..."

Although Choji didn't know what was going on, he could tell from the hostile looks from the boys that they disliked him, making him wonder if he was hated.

Not long after Hinata took her seat, Sasuke walked in.

After scanning the room, Sasuke glared with hostility at the chubby boy... and then at Hinata behind him.

Hinata: "..."

Fortunately, Sasuke wasn't foolish enough to confront Hinata right then and there.

"So handsome!"

However, Sasuke's entrance immediately captivated many of the young girls.

Sakura and Ino, the best friends, turned on each other on the spot.

"Late, late!"

Just as the class bell was about to ring, Uzumaki Naruto came running in.

Naruto breathed a sigh of relief, "I almost missed it."

"Classmate, could you please return to your seat and not stand by the door?"

"Yes."

Naruto found an empty seat, and coincidentally, it was right next to Hinata.

This immediately caused the boys in the class who were intentionally or unintentionally paying attention to Hinata to glare furiously.

"He actually sat next to her."

"I didn't even have the nerve to sit there..."

"Let's kill him..."

Oblivious Naruto didn't notice the hostile glances and whispers from the boys in the class. He was currently staring blankly at Hinata.

While anyone would find Hinata adorable, Naruto's attention was more focused on the horns on her forehead.

After the class bell rang, the teacher counted the students again.

"Alright, since everyone is here."

"Let's all introduce ourselves. I'll go first. My name is Umino Iruka, a Chunin. I will be your teacher from now on."

"Who would like to introduce themselves next?"
