Afternoon.
Konoha Hospital, large classroom.
Shiraha, dressed in a white coat, walked into the classroom.
Ever since their encounter with Kakuzu over a year ago, the village had not assigned any more missions to Orochimaru's Team.
Chiho and Hideto had already been promoted to Special Jonin. They still belonged to Orochimaru's Team, but usually accompanied other Chunin squads on missions.
As for Shiraha, he was still a Chunin because he had not voluntarily taken the promotion exams for Special Jonin or Jōnin.
Once he became a Special Jonin, he would inevitably have to lead a team.
Remaining a Chunin was just fine.
For the higher-ups, keeping Shiraha at Konoha Hospital to contribute to the medical field while continuing to research new medicines and Medical Scrolls was the best choice.
Starting this year, whenever Shiraha was not busy, he would serve as an instructor for the Medical Training Class and teach newcomers Medical Ninjutsu.
Today was his first lesson.
The moment Shiraha stepped onto the podium, the girls below began whispering among themselves.
"Wow! The new teacher is so handsome!"
"I wonder if he has a girlfriend?!"
"Are you lovesick? You don't even know Senior Shiraha? He's hailed as a genius among Medical Ninja. Even Lord Tsunade—"
"He's my type."
"...Were you even listening to me?!"
Shiraha pressed his hands down, signaling for everyone to quiet down, and said with a smile, "Hello, everyone. Starting today, I will be your instructor for medical fundamentals. My name is Yagami Shiraha. I'm sixteen years old. I live on West Street in the village. As for a girlfriend, I suppose I do have one. I am currently an active-duty medical Chunin. My favorite foods are tomatoes and beef. I don't smoke, and I rarely drink. That's all."
"Teacher has a girlfriend? Who is she?
