No Serious Person Seals

"Is there? I hadn't really noticed." Fujiwara Chiya naturally wouldn't tell her that it was due to his cultivation technique, which had caused his physique and spiritual energy to leap forward, far surpassing that of an ordinary person.

If he were to refine chakra like a normal ninja.

At only six years old, he could easily achieve half a Kakashi's worth of chakra, if not a full one.

If he were to enter Sage Mode, his chakra reserves would soar at least tenfold.

This was only because of his young age and the low level of his technique. In the future, it would only grow exponentially. (ps: One Kakashi = the amount of chakra possessed by a single Sharingan Kakashi.)

"Of course there is. You were slightly shorter than me before, but now you've already surpassed me." Izumi used an extremely exaggerated tone. At this moment, Fujiwara Chiya finally saw what Uchiha Izumi was carrying: two bento boxes.

Noticing Fujiwara Chiya's gaze, Izumi's pretty face flushed red again. She tightened her grip on the bag holding the bento boxes and looked away with a hint of tsundere, "Don't misunderstand. I just happened to make an extra bento this morning; it's definitely not because I was worried you wouldn't have anything to eat at noon."

"Then thank you." A warmth spread through Fujiwara Chiya's heart. He had indeed forgotten to prepare lunch in advance, and the school did not provide meals.

"Mm." Izumi nodded heavily, a joyful smile instantly appearing on her face. "Let's go, then. Let's head to the classroom together."

Soon, the two arrived at the classroom.

Chiya pushed open the classroom door and saw that the room was almost completely full.

Their arrival did not cause much of a stir, as the vast majority of the gazes in the room were drawn to Uchiha Itachi, who had arrived before them.

Faintly, one could even hear the deliberately hushed exclamations of the girls.

"Wow, Uchiha Itachi-kun is so cool."

"Right, right. I heard he's the son of the Uchiha clan head."

The girls in the Naruto world were precocious. Just like Yamanaka Ino and Haruno Sakura—who would say "If there's trouble, call for help; if there's nothing, it's Sasuke"—the two, who were originally like sisters, saw their friendship capsize simply because they were both pursuing the Second Pillar, Uchiha Sasuke.

Listening to the chatter of the girls around him, the corners of Fujiwara Chiya's mouth twitched violently. He couldn't help but complain internally that these people were far too infatuated.

Standing beside Fujiwara Chiya, Uchiha Izumi assumed he was envious of Uchiha Itachi and offered timely comfort, "Um... I think compared to Itachi, Chiya-kun is even more handsome."

Recalling how Fujiwara Chiya had saved her without hesitation a month ago, Uchiha Izumi's small face couldn't help but flush.

"Let's find a seat and sit down first." Fujiwara Chiya thought to himself, That's not how you comfort someone.

"It's them." At this moment, Uchiha Itachi also saw Fujiwara Chiya and Uchiha Izumi. He hesitated about whether to go over and greet them, but ultimately decided against it. He was a person who was not good at expressing his emotions, and besides, they weren't close enough to strike up a conversation.

Before long, the teacher arrived. He was a slightly chubby chunin with a mustache. He didn't waste any words; he first wrote his name on the blackboard, gave a brief self-introduction, and then asked the students to introduce themselves one by one.

For a time, almost the entire classroom remained in a joyful atmosphere.

Until everyone had finished their introductions, the teacher finally arranged for the distribution of textbooks.

Modern History of Konoha, Will of Fire, Detailed Explanation of Chakra Refining, The Three Body Technique, Basic Physical Training Methods, Ninja Tool Throwing: From Beginner to Master. Besides these, they were also issued books on subjects like humanities, geography, and mathematics.

These textbooks would accompany every student through their next six years at the Ninja Academy. Of course, if you could graduate early, that was an exception.

As a veteran fan of Naruto, Fujiwara Chiya first opened the Modern History of Konoha and flipped through it casually. With just one glance, the corners of his mouth twitched violently.

The First Hokage pacifying the chaotic world and establishing the ninja village was glossed over simply; the Second Hokage ending the First Great Ninja War was barely mentioned; and the fact that the Uchiha clan joined forces with the Senju clan to build Konoha wasn't even brought up.

Only the recently deceased Fourth Hokage, who sacrificed himself for Konoha, occupied a small page, and that had clearly been added as an afterthought.

The rest was entirely dedicated to how great the "Strongest Hokage in History," the Third, was—calling him a Professor of Ninjutsu and a Ninja Hero—and how he turned the tide in the Second and Third Great Ninja Wars, leading Konoha out of crises to final victory.

It was practically bragging to the point of absurdity.

Of course, despite the shamelessness, the effect was surprisingly good. Almost all the civilian students had their eyes nearly popping out of their sockets after reading it, filled with such worship.

Especially Uchiha Itachi. Since he didn't lack ninja knowledge from a young age, he was inseparable from the Will of Fire and Modern History of Konoha, especially the Will of Fire book, which made Uchiha Itachi's eyes shine with fervor.

It was from this moment on that Uchiha Itachi began to view everything around him through the so-called "Hokage mindset."

He began to develop a rebellious psychology toward his own clan.

Regarding the conflict between the Uchiha clan and Konoha.

He always thought that the arrogance of the Uchiha clan was beyond saving.

Yet, he ignored everything the Konoha higher-ups had done to the Uchiha.

Although he gradually experienced more and understood much later, offering a confession to Sasuke before his soul ascended to heaven.

Unfortunately, it was too late; the Uchiha clan was already almost entirely wiped out.

To this, Fujiwara Chiya could only say that toxic textbooks do great harm.

If Fujiwara Chiya hadn't been a transmigrator, he might have actually believed that old geezer.

Likewise, the brainwashing book Will of Fire, after being skimmed through, was tossed aside.

Compared to the deliberately exaggerated and even falsified history, he was much more interested in the ninja knowledge found in Detailed Explanation of Chakra Refining, The Three Body Technique, Basic Physical Training Methods, and Ninja Tool Throwing: From Beginner to Master.

Time quickly reached noon, and Fujiwara Chiya and Uchiha Izumi met on the rooftop to eat together.

After the meal, Fujiwara Chiya wiped his mouth clean and shamelessly asked this little rich girl of the Uchiha clan for ninjutsu.

"Ninjutsu?" Uchiha Izumi put down her lunch box and asked with some confusion, "Didn't the teacher explain the Three Body Technique to us this morning?"

"It's too simple." Fujiwara Chiya circulated his technique, sensed his surroundings, and after confirming no one was monitoring him, he delivered his "flex" declaration and demonstrated the Three Body Technique for Izumi one by one.

Ever since he began practicing the Heavenly Steel Art, he learned low-level ninjutsu like the Three Body Technique almost instantly. Even without relying on the technique, he could perform them using ordinary chakra.

Not only that, he was surprised to discover that after performing the Three Body Technique once using ordinary chakra refining methods, he could then use his technique to enter Sage Mode and perform it by imitating the chakra flow path of the Three Body Technique, eliminating the need for hand seals entirely.

This moment couldn't help but make him feel a bit excited.

Doesn't that mean he, Teng, could also be like the First Hokage or Uchiha Madara in the future—slapping his palms together and having whatever he calls for appear?

First Hokage: "Madara, are you weaving hand signs?"

Uchiha Madara smiled: "I don't weave hand signs. Hashirama, surely you don't?"

First Hokage shook his head: "Isn't it just slapping your hands together and having whatever you call for appear? What kind of serious person weaves hand signs anyway?"

Kisame, Zabuza, and Kakashi: Have already fainted in the restroom from crying.
