I Like Going to School, Hehe

Time flies. The day has finally arrived; today is the day of enrollment.

"Heh, Ninja Academy, here comes yours truly!"

Because Qing Wu awakened the Ōtsutsuki bloodline, his lifespan is far longer than that of an ordinary person. Thus, despite being three years older than the other brats, his height remains unremarkable.

He even looks a bit petite. To outsiders, his skin also appears somewhat "sickly" pale.

Due to the inheritance from Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, Qing Wu's hair has turned a silvery-gray color due to ancestral bloodline regression. In everyone's eyes, however, this is just the withered white of a premature baby who has overdrawn his vitality. The heads of the great clans look at him with a touch of pity.

"That is the grandson of the Hyuga Great Elder. What a pitiful child, so thin and small..."

"Indeed. His parents died young, and his own poor health delayed his enrollment by over three years..."

"Shall we see what the child's personality is like? If it's decent, we can let our children get to know him..."

"True. The Hyuga Great Elder still commands great prestige, and he has a group of loyal followers. It wouldn't hurt to build a bit of goodwill."

"..."

"No way, I have to keep my child away from him. We are commoners; what if we accidentally hurt him..."

"Right, right, stay away from him. He looks so sickly..."

"None of these great clans have any good in them..."

The commoners keep their distance, as they dare not touch the majesty of the prestigious Hyuga clan.

Self-imagined scenarios are the most lethal!

After realizing this, Hyuga Qing Wu actually breathes a sigh of relief. This saves him from having to come up with excuses for his unusual appearance and hair color, and he even gains everyone's pity. A good thing, indeed!

Sure enough, people only believe what their eyes see.

"Big Brother Qing Wu?" Little Hinata feels very fond of this older brother who helped the Great Elder save her. If it weren't for them that day, she might have been taken away by the Cloud ninja...

Naruto: Sob~ It's just me again. Why does everyone else have their mom and dad to send them off? Grandpa Third, where are you~

Sasuke: Hmph~ I have my brother to send me off.

Kiba: Akamaru, we will definitely become the strongest in the Ninja Academy, right? (Akamaru: Woof woof~!)

Shikamaru: Sigh~ School, what a drag.

Choji: Crunch~ crunch~ Potato chips are so delicious.

Ino: Wow, wow, wow~ So many handsome little brothers.

Sakura: So many people~ (Inner Sakura: Ohoho~ Handsome brothers... so many... haha...)

Shino: ...

Neji: Young Master Qing Wu, I will protect your safety with my life. Thank you and the Great Elder for saving my father.

Lee: Oh, oh~ Extra training~ Extra training~

Tenten: My, my~ What a bunch of cute children.

Qing Wu thinks to himself, Hmm, for little brats like the Konoha Twelve, yours truly could take on twelve at once! Without even breaking a sweat. Never mind, let's say eight—Tenten, Ino, Sakura, and Hinata are at their cutest right now.

If outsiders knew his thoughts—that a dignified World Lord, the master of the Demon Refining Pot (one of the ten great artifacts of Great China), and a direct descendant of the Ōtsutsuki had such meager ambitions—they would surely despise him.

However, such pretty little girls would probably cry for a long time if I punched them! They'd definitely remember me~

He thinks of the cute little blonde girl he saw the day before yesterday, the one from the Yamanaka clan. Actually, the grown-up Ino is quite something; her figure is amazing, and her family background is great too. Hmm, very top-tier~

Should I give it a try?

Hmm, better not. Qing Wu shrinks his neck. Momma, it was just a glance at your daughter, Yamanaka Inoichi, do you have to glare at me so viciously...

If you don't want me to look, I won't. Big deal.

Hmph~ If you have the guts, keep staring at me every day, otherwise, I'll definitely send you a whole bunch of grandsons and granddaughters to raise until you're exhausted, you old fogey.

Hehe~ I'm so bad. Qing Wu is very self-aware.

"Ino, you stay away from that child of the Hyuga Great Elder's family. That kid doesn't look like a good person."

Yamanaka Inoichi watches Qing Wu vigilantly as he instructs his daughter, Yamanaka Ino. Damn little white-haired brat, daring to look at my daughter with such a lecherous, fiery gaze, and that perverted smile. One look and I can tell he's a little pervert, a little punk—not a good egg at all~

"Okay, Daddy~" Little Ino replies obediently, but in her heart, she remembers Hyuga Qing Wu. How could this silver-haired big brother attract Daddy's attention?

If Yamanaka Inoichi knew his words had piqued his daughter's curiosity, he would likely regret it to death.

Qing Wu turns his gaze toward Tenten, Sakura, and Hinata.

Hmm, Tenten is a little rich girl and has talent for space-time ninjutsu. My teeth aren't great, so I think I could handle some soft rice.

Sakura isn't that boy-crazy yet at this age; she's pink and tender, very cute.

Little Hinata is too shy. I forgot to tell Uncle Hiashi—this girl has a big appetite, don't let her go hungry.

Oh my, the other little sisters seem pretty good too.

The scent of youth.

Having drifted through a past life, Qing Wu finally understands.

Finding a wife should be done early; it is best to cultivate them from childhood.

Greetings, classmates.

School is great; one must attend school.

I love school!!!

Hyuga Seigo smiled happily.

"..."

The Third Hokage was speechless. If not for the existence of your Byakugan, I would have even suspected you were the child of that scoundrel Jiraiya.

This behavior—it is exactly the same.

However, he felt an inexplicable sense of relief in his heart. Having no ambition is good, liking girls is good; what I fear is you wanting to stir up trouble and being single-mindedly obsessed with becoming stronger.

A Hyuga Main House member with ambition.

Konoha does not allow such a thing to exist.

A flash of cold severity crossed Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes. This one meeting did not mean he was at ease; he would continue to keep a close watch...

Good heavens.

Toward the great clans.

Such undisguised malice.

Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Hyuga Seigo was also smiling on the surface while cursing internally.

That damn Sarutobi Hiruzen, why are you staring at me for no reason? You old bastard, you are truly wicked.

The days ahead are long.

We shall play this game slowly.

Next was the entrance examination.

"As expected of Konoha's number one noble clan..."

"Damn it... the top rankings are all children of the great clans. Is there no way for us commoners to get ahead?"

"..."

"That damn demon fox... how could the Hokage allow such a person to enroll..."

"..."

"Is he really the son of the Uchiha clan head?"

"But compared to that eldest son, he is still lacking... that one is already a Jonin, right..."

"Hmph~ I just can't stand their arrogance, looking down on people through their nostrils..." "Keep your voice down, do you want to die? That's the Police Force..."

"..."

Unsurprisingly, Sasuke was first in the physical test. As for Hyuga Seigo, he was at an average level, with nothing particularly outstanding.

No one found this surprising.

Hyuga Seigo was hiding his true strength.

What is there to compare with these little children?

"Now then, according to the assessment, we will begin assigning classes. When your name is called, proceed to the designated classroom..."

"Longtao... Class C..."

"..."

"Luren Jiro... Class E..."

"Jia Yibing..."

"Uchiha Sasuke, Class A~"

"Hyuga Hinata, Hyuga Seigo, Class A..."

"..."

"Nara Shikamaru, Yamanaka Ino, Akimichi Choji, Class A..."

"..."

"Inuzuka Kiba..."

"Aburame Shino..."

"Haruno Sakura..."

"..."

"And Uzumaki Naruto, Class A..."

Seigo watched this scene and smiled. As expected, the gears of fate had already begun to turn... How interesting...

Class 1-A, here I come...

"My name is Hyuga Seigo, and I am the man who will become the Harem King... I want to give every girl a home..."

Hyuga Seigo's shocking declaration during his self-introduction left a deep impression on everyone.

And just like that, Seigo's school life began.
