It wasn't until almost noon that someone finally pushed open the classroom door and came in.

It was none other than Dou, who had just come out after finishing his work in the Experimental Building.

"Sorry for waiting. Natsuri, Sasuke Uchiha, and Naruto, right? Now come with me. We can talk about any questions when we get to the training ground!"

As he spoke, Kabuto raised his right hand to check the time, and then left without waiting for the three to react.

Kabuto is one of Ren's assistants in many things, Natsuri knows him.

Without hesitation, Natsuri took the lead and followed behind Kabuto. Naruto and Sasuke Uchiha followed suit.

A short while later.

The four of them had already arrived at the training ground.

Looking at the three people standing neatly in front of him, Kabuto spoke directly.

"To make a long story short, my name is Kabuto Yakushi. I'm skilled in many things, so I won't go into details. I'm not your instructor; I'm just temporarily teaching you some things. As for your information, I already reviewed it before I came, so you don't need to introduce yourselves."

After quickly delivering the basic information, Kabuto saw Naruto about to speak, but before Naruto could open his mouth, Kabuto made a shushing gesture and continued.

"We can discuss any questions later. My time is limited. From now on, you will come here every day at noon, and I will teach you the relevant knowledge and skills. Okay, I've finished speaking. Is there anything you didn't understand or any questions you have?"

"Me, me, me!"

Naruto, who had been full of doubts for a long time, immediately raised his hand to indicate that he had a question.

"Speak, what don't you understand?"

"Who is our mentor? Why hasn't he come to find us? And how should I address you, Teacher Dou?"

After listening, Kabuto did not answer directly, but looked at Natsuri and Sasuke Uchiha and asked.

And you?

"I have the same question!"

Natsuri succinctly stated that she had no other questions.

Sasuke Uchiha shook his head and remained silent.

"First question: Your instructor is the Lord Hokage. As for why he didn't come to find you, he must be very busy, so he arranged for me to teach you."

Kabuto actually knows that Ren spends his days slacking off in the office, but there's nothing he can do about it, so he can only make up the fact that Ren is very busy.

"As for how to address me, please feel free to do so."

Ren pondered for a long time about whose student the three of them should be, and finally decided to take the student himself.

It's possible to insist on assigning Naruto and Sasuke to Kakashi according to the original story, but in this world, apart from Ren himself, probably no one knows the potential of Naruto and Sasuke.

If it were in Kakashi's hands, aside from the Sasuke Uchiha might get a free copy of his core Lightning Release Ninjutsu, Chidori, there wouldn't be much benefit.

Sasuke Uchiha spent three years with Orochimaru, and eventually even devoured Orochimaru, yet the battle still revolved around electric shocks—all sorts of flashy and unorthodox electric attacks.

Naruto learned nothing from Kakashi except some basic common sense, and after following Jiraiya for three years, all he learned was how to make Rasengan.

From Ren's perspective, their growth was extremely slow.

Considering that he would only Hokage for a few more years and then retire once the two of them had grown up, it would be good for him to have the three of them as his students.

Of course, most importantly, Ren was worried about having someone else become Natsuri's teacher.

Ultimately, the three became Ren's students, but Ren didn't want to play house with the children, even though his younger sister was one of them.

Adhering to the principle that those who are capable should do more, Ren once again added more burdens to Kabuto's workload.

Anyway, Kabuto was already used to a busy but fulfilling life and could always find time to complete the tasks assigned by Ren.

Of the three, Naruto and Sasuke Uchiha were quite happy, except for Natsuri, who had some reservations about the decision.

Textbooks don't describe Ren in much detail, but in other parts of Konoha, there's a significant amount of publicity surrounding Ren.

It's certainly something to be happy about that the strongest Shinobi World, who is also an acquaintance, has become his teacher.

None of the three, including Natsuri, doubted Ren's busy schedule, which shows that Ren usually presents a very good image.

After explaining some essential knowledge to the three of them in half an hour, Kabuto left, leaving only a Shadow Clone behind as a supervisor.

Over the next month.

Besides teaching the three basic training skills, such as tree climbing and Water Walking as described in the original work, Kabuto also forced them to do some exercises.

The rest of the time, I just accompanied the three of them to do tasks, like playing house.

Konoha no longer has those boring tasks like finding cats or taking care of children.

Most of the low-level jobs involved working as a temporary laborer, such as tightening screws in a factory or carrying bricks on a construction site.

The time had finally come to the eve of the Chunin Ninja Exams.
