The Beginning of the Story

Year 64 of Konoha.

Loud, boisterous laughter rang out through the streets of Konoha.

"Gahahahaha..."

A boy with yellow hair and an orange jumpsuit sprinted ahead, with two Konoha ninja in hot pursuit.

"Hey! Naruto! How could you do something so heaven-defying?!"

"We are absolutely not letting you get away today!"

The two men shouted frantically as they chased after him.

Naruto responded with a dismissive smirk, leaping into mid-air.

"Ahehe, you guys are so annoying."

"You guys, just you guys, you could never pull something like this off."

"I'm just that good."

The scene shifted to the Hokage Rock, where Naruto had thoughtfully applied makeup to the First, Second, Third, and—with extra care—his own dear father, the Fourth. (I'm honestly crying; he's so young, drinking expired milk just to save up enough money to buy makeup for his dad.)

Hyuga Ningxue, passing by on his way to school, happened to witness this very sight.

His only evaluation of the situation was four words.

"Boring, filial."

He didn't linger, heading straight toward the school.

Upon arriving, he opened the classroom door, walked directly to the very back, and pulled out a novel to read.

(Although learning is endless, a person is not a machine; one must balance work and rest.)

During this time, he silently flipped through his book, paying no mind to the chatter outside.

Until the school bell rang.

Ring-a-ling.

The class bell rang right on time.

Ningxue neatly closed his novel, tucked it back into his desk, and prepared for the arrival of Iruka-sensei.

He scanned the classroom, noting that Naruto seemed to be late again, though he figured the boy was likely still running for his life.

Seeing that class had already started and no one had arrived, he grew puzzled; Iruka-sensei was usually very punctual.

Could something have come up today?

The answer arrived not long after.

Halfway through the lesson, Iruka finally opened the classroom door, with a bound Naruto trailing behind him.

Seeing Naruto, Ningxue had a sudden realization: Iruka-sensei's tardiness was due to chasing Naruto down—no wonder he was late.

Iruka-sensei took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and brought Naruto to the podium to begin his lecture.

"Listen up, Naruto," Iruka pointed at him, speaking with irritation.

"You didn't pass the exam last time, or the time before that."

"Now is not the time for pranks, you idiot."

Hearing the lecturing tone, Naruto, sitting on the floor bound in ropes, let out a childish huff.

"Hmph!" He immediately turned his head to the other side.

Seeing Naruto's attitude, Iruka couldn't help but grow even more annoyed.

He then shouted to the entire class.

"Today's lesson is a review and examination of the Transformation Jutsu."

"Even those who have already passed must come out and line up!"

"Eh?" Hearing that today's lesson was a Transformation Jutsu review, the majority of the class groaned in unison.

Ignoring the students' wails, Iruka-sensei pulled out the roster and began calling names.

"First, Haruno Sakura!"

Haruno Sakura answered, then formed the hand seals.

"Transform!"

With a poof, a cloud of smoke rose, and as it cleared, someone who looked seventy or eighty percent like Iruka stood in her place.

Iruka smiled and nodded at the sight.

"Haruno Sakura, pass."

"Yes!" Sakura cheered happily.

"Sasuke-kun, how was that?"

"Next, Uchiha Sasuke."

"Yes."

Uchiha Sasuke walked coolly to the front with his hands in his pockets. He formed the hand seals, and with a poof, he transformed into someone who looked ninety percent like Iruka.

Iruka was somewhat surprised to see this, but he quickly made the announcement.

"Uchiha Sasuke, pass."

Sasuke dispelled the transformation and walked back to the line with his hands in his pockets.

"Next, Uzumaki Naruto."

Naruto stood in line with a dejected look on his face, the complaints of Yamanaka Ino and Nara Shikamaru ringing in his ears.

"What a drag." "It's all your fault."

To this, Naruto only muttered, "What does that have to do with me?" before stepping forward and forming the hand seals.

But what no one expected was that Naruto would actually use his original Sexy Jutsu here.

"Transformation!"

Poof! A much denser cloud of white smoke exploded outward.

However, after the smoke cleared, what appeared in place of Iruka was not the teacher, but a blonde, blue-eyed, completely naked sexy woman!

"Mmhmm~"

How could Iruka have ever seen such a scene? He instantly turned to stone, and then a geyser of blood sprayed from his nose.

Seeing this, the male students, being young and ignorant of such things, only turned red and felt shy.

The girls, meanwhile, covered their faces, looking both embarrassed and annoyed.

Hyuga Ningxue's reaction, however, was a bit...

After all, counting his previous life, he was already over twenty years old. Facing such a scene...

He felt his whole body heat up, and he shyly turned his head away; he was not someone who didn't understand what he was seeing.

"Idiot," Ningxue cursed under his breath.

"Ahahaha, how about that? I call it the Sexy Jutsu!"

Seeing Iruka instantly taken down, Naruto clutched his stomach and pointed at Iruka, laughing while explaining the name of the technique.

Hearing the mockery, Iruka snapped back to his senses and roared!

"You idiot, stop creating such useless ninjutsu!!!"

Immediately, Naruto was punished and sent out to clean up his mess.

But Naruto looked unconvinced, muttering as he left, "Whatever, it's not like anyone is waiting for me at home anyway."

The exam continued.

"Next, Hyuga Ningxue." Iruka calmed himself down and called the name.

Ningxue steadied his emotions and walked forward, feigning composure.

Fortunately, he had long since mastered this technique and could even transform more perfectly than Sasuke, but he wouldn't do that.

"Transformation!"

He formed the hand seals, and with a poof, as the smoke cleared, an Iruka with an eighty percent resemblance appeared in place. The details were slightly blurred, though still a bit better than Sakura's.

"Hyuga Ningxue, pass."

Ningxue nodded slightly, dispelled the transformation, and walked silently back to the end of the line.

But a pair of eyes was staring fixedly at him.

Needless to say, it was Shikamaru. His intuition told him that Ningxue was still pretending.

"What a drag," Shikamaru couldn't help but mutter his catchphrase.

"Next, Yamanaka Ino."

Ino stepped forward, full of confidence.

"Transformation!"

A flash of white smoke passed, and she transformed into the likeness of Iruka.

"Very good, pass!"

Iruka nodded in satisfaction.

"Next, Nara Shikamaru."

Shikamaru walked over lazily, muttering, "What a drag," under his breath.

"Transformation!"

He also successfully transformed into Iruka. Although his expression carried a hint of impatience, the technique itself was a success.

"Pass."

The assessment proceeded in an orderly fashion, and most of the students who had already passed were successfully reviewing their work.

After all the students had returned to their seats, Iruka put away his booklet and left the classroom to supervise Naruto.

Of course, Naruto outside wasn't slacking off either; he was miserably scrubbing the Hokage Rock.
