"Wow, Lord Fujima is so handsome, and even his pet is so handsome. I really like him."
"Yeah! I'm so jealous of Shizuka. She actually got engaged to Lord Fujima. If only I were the one who got engaged to him!"
"With a face like yours, you think anyone would want you? Have you even looked at how much you weigh? I'd be much better!"
"You, with barely two pounds of flesh on your backside, have the nerve to say that about me? Maybe Lord Fujima likes women with a little extra padding!"
The girls had already considered Senju Fujima their dream man. His family was rich and influential, he was powerful in his own right, and most importantly, he was incredibly handsome. What woman wouldn't like him?
Because of this, the girls in the class nearly came to blows.
"Fujima."
Hearing everyone's comments, Shizuka blushed and lowered her head, playing with her fingers. She didn't know what to say and felt terribly shy.
"Hmph."
Irudi watched Senju Fujima leave the classroom and slowly let go of his anger.
"Everyone, sit down and pay attention."
"Next, we'll cover the Hand Seals and practical applications of the Clone Technique."
"Used well, the Clone Technique can also confuse your enemy. Even if it only buys you a single second, that's enough time to make your next move."
After Senju Fujima left, the class settled down somewhat, though a few students still whispered among themselves. Irudi's shout quickly cut them off, and everyone sat obediently and listened.
"What a coward. If anyone dared to insult this great one, I'd flatten them with a single Tailed Beast Bomb, but you don't dare do a thing."
"Tch, pathetic."
Standing on Senju Fujima's right shoulder, Kurama remembered how Irudi had yelled at him earlier. Fujima hadn't even gotten angry, and Kurama couldn't resist mocking him.
"Haha, it's nothing. I'll let him off. He's a teacher, after all."
"If I get into a fight at school and my old man finds out, won't my butt be in for it?"
"I'm not that stupid, haha!"
Hearing Kurama, Senju Fujima burst out laughing, utterly unconcerned.
"Tch, a coward's a coward. No need to explain."
"I only know one thing: if they don't like it, fight them. If you can't beat them, keep fighting until they're flat on their backs."
Kurama curled his lip, a look of disdain flashing in his eyes as he mocked Fujima.
"Haha, say whatever you want. I'm not a masochist."
Senju Fujima didn't take Kurama's taunts to heart. He simply smiled.
Before long, the lesson ended.
"Lord Fujima, please don't take what happened in class personally. This is a school, and that was a lesson. I couldn't let you disrupt the class."
When the lesson ended, Irudi came out first and bowed to Senju Fujima as he spoke. He knew how to separate business from personal matters: a teacher had to know when to be strict and when to be lenient.
"Hehe, it's fine, Teacher Irudi. At school, I'm your student. It's no problem, so don't worry about it."
Senju Fujima smiled at Irudi. He didn't care about it at all. Those basic lessons were completely useless to him anyway.
Fortunately, he didn't need to train much right now. All he had to do was increase his chakra reserves, then merge the Uchiha and Senju bloodlines in his body.
Once he awakened the Rinnegan, he would reach the Six Paths level.
His current strength was already infinitely close to the realm of the gods. With Kurama, he was already a god-tier powerhouse on par with Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju.

"Then I'll be on my way."
Hearing Senju Fujima say that, Irudi breathed a sigh of relief.
He was a civilian ninja, and being able to teach at the Ninja Academy was already a great privilege. At least his children would be able to receive a better education in the future.
It wouldn't be good to offend Senju Fujima, but Irudi had his own principles. He wouldn't abandon his sacred duty as a teacher just because Fujima was the young clan head of the Senju Clan.
"Mm."
Senju Fujima nodded slightly, and Irudi turned and left.
"F-Fujima."
After class, Shizuka soon came out too. She shyly approached Senju Fujima and called to him softly.
"Shizuka, you're out?"
Senju Fujima smiled when he saw Shizuka emerge.
"Tch, only humans have such complicated feelings."
Kurama stood on Senju Fujima's shoulder and muttered disdainfully.
"Mm. Were you okay just now, Fujima?"
Shizuka asked with some concern.
"I'm fine. What are you thinking? You don't think your husband is that fragile, do you? Hehe!"
Seeing the worry in Shizuka's eyes, Senju Fujima reached out and patted her on the head.
"Mm...!"
Shizuka didn't shy away. She only grew even more embarrassed, her face bright red. He wanted to rush over and give her a kiss.
"Fujima, what kind of pet is that?"
"I-I think he's really cute."
Then Shizuka noticed Kurama on Senju Fujima's shoulder. A look of affection flashed in her eyes, and she asked with a smile.
"Hah! His name is Kurama. He's a special pet I caught."
"Do you like him? Here, want to hold him?"
Seeing that Shizuka seemed to like Kurama, Senju Fujima smiled, scooped him up, and handed him over.
"Kid, what do you think you're doing? I'm not a pet! You're making me entertain your little girlfriend?"
"Put me down! Let go of me...!"
Kurama wanted nothing to do with it. He glared at Senju Fujima with murderous intent and threatened him.
"Haha, it's fine. We're all friends now. No big deal, no big deal. Hehe!"
Watching Kurama curse and grumble, Senju Fujima chuckled and passed him over anyway. No matter how much Kurama struggled, he couldn't break free.
"Hehehe...!"
"Fujima, he's so cute, but he doesn't seem to want me to hold him. Never mind!"
Looking at Kurama, Shizuka smiled gently. She didn't insist on holding him.
"It's fine. Here."
Senju Fujima didn't care what Kurama thought. He simply plopped him into Shizuka's arms.
"Hehe!"
"Kurama, your fur is so soft, and you're so cute. I really like you."
When Senju Fujima put Kurama in her arms, Shizuka smiled, lowered her head, and cuddled him close. She stroked his fur and smiled with her eyes narrowed.
